Chapter 326: Slaying Demons and Eliminating Demons
On the other side of the Yellow River, someone seemed to have heard his wish. Suddenly, a horn sounded loudly. Immediately afterwards, a large group of people with white cloths on their heads emerged from the dense forest near the ferry, waving long spears and short knives, shooting directly from behind.
Pushui Village.
"Maitreya has come to the world to save people in distress. You people, don't be afraid. Come with me to kill the demons quickly!" Among the people who had previously knelt down towards the water village at the south bank ferry to pray for Han Qing to send troops to save people, there were also hundreds of people with ferocious faces.
The man and woman wrapped their heads with white cloth, then took out a short knife from under their robes and pointed diagonally toward the water village.
"The Maitreya Cult, they are the Maitreya Cult!" Most of the people who had cried and begged Han Qing on their knees before realized that they were being used by bad people, and they all regretted it.
However, they had neither weapons nor any training. At this moment, what else could they do except flee for their lives?
Even escaping has become a luxury.
Some people's legs and feet were a little slower, but they were grabbed back by the Maitreya believers around them. Then, without any explanation, they stuffed a rusty short knife into their hands and forced them to follow Maitreya's flag and attack the military camp.
.
"Maitreya comes to the world and slays demons!" The group of Maitreya believers who rushed out of the woods soon arrived near the water village. They accelerated towards the back door of the water village and shouted in unison. Their wrinkles were intertwined.
Madness is written all over his face.
In order to rescue the people at the ferry on the north bank, Han Qing sent out almost all the ships.
At this moment, the water village is empty.
As long as the Maitreya Sect invades the water stronghold, they can light a fire and burn all the grain, grass and baggage stored in the water stronghold by Han Qing!
The ship's load capacity was limited, and it was impossible for Han Qing to put all the grain, grass and baggage on the ship.
Just now they were focused on saving the people across the river, and it was impossible for the men under Han Qing to carry any dry food.
If the water village is burned to the ground by the Maitreya Cult, the six to seven thousand people who are now being picked up by Han Qing on the giant ship and sentinel ship will be his creditors and burdens. Just two meals a day can completely destroy him.
Han Qing, who had lost his baggage and supplies, had no choice but to leave Yucheng Ferry in despair and find another place to find food and grass in order to prevent the rescued people and his brothers from starving, even if he had dozens of warships and sentry ships.
supply.
At that time, the Khitan cavalry will be able to use sheepskin as rafts to cross the Yellow River. They will not encounter any further obstacles!
"I'm afraid the person surnamed Han would never have dreamed that the Maitreya Cult had left Hebei a long time ago and set up a nest under his nose!" On the north bank of the Yellow River, watching the Maitreya Cult team rushing towards the back gate of the water village, the deputy general manager of the Pedestrian Department of Daliao South
Xiao Moke stopped, his face filled with the joy of revenge.
So far, the second link of the chain plan has been executed very smoothly.
Although the Song army who stayed behind in the water village began to resist hard, because the number was too small, the arrows they fired were sparse and unable to stop the Maitreya believers.
Although there are already warships on the river trying to return to their base. However, it will take at least two quarters of an hour to sail back to the water village from the center of the Yellow River.
At that time, the fire in the water village must have been out of control!
"Woo woo woo, woo woo woo, woo woo -" a dragon-like horn suddenly sounded in the water village on the south bank of the Yellow River. In an instant, it disturbed the sweet dream of Xiao Moke, deputy general manager of the Pedestrian Department in the south of Daliao.
It was in pieces.
The sparse arrows originally aimed at the Maitreya cultists suddenly became denser, with hundreds or thousands of arrows, covering the sky and the sun in the blink of an eye.
The Maitreya team that was rushing toward the back door of the water village was instantly smashed into seven or eight holes, and blood splattered everywhere.
Most of the Maitreya believers who were hit by the arrows were not seriously injured. They fell on the wet river beach, rolling and struggling in pain, and wailing at the top of their lungs.
However, the church leaders and guardians in the team were unwilling to give up the attack on the water village. They waved long spears and short knives, and led and coerced the believers around them to continue to advance. The shouts in their mouths became more and more crazy, "Maitreya comes to the world, kill him."
Kill demons. Maitreya comes to the world and kills..."
Another wave of arrows fell, creating more gaps in the advancing team.
Some timid believers stopped hesitantly and looked around. Some bold believers, their shouts instantly weakened, followed the hall master and the guardians and continued to rush forward, waving weapons in front of their eyes.
Pull out randomly.
Pulling out feathers and arrows with weapons requires extremely high vision and skills. Even experienced veterans may not be able to do it, let alone a group of untrained Maitreya cult followers?
Soon, more Maitreya believers fell, making the team more and more loose, and the overall morale plummeted.
"Form up, form up! The shield men come forward and cover the whole army! There are only a few people in the water village. If you rush in, you can kill all those monsters!" In the Maitreya Cult team, a guy wearing a red robe suddenly appeared.
Raise your voice and give orders.
He has a high status in the church, which can be seen from his clothes. Immediately, there are hall masters and incense masters around him, repeating loudly, and in the blink of an eye, the order has reached the ears of every member of the congregation.
.
The believers holding shields were hesitant about what the red robe said. However, they did not dare to disobey. They stepped forward one after another, stumbling from the center and end of the team to the front of the team. Then they raised their shields over their heads as quickly as possible.
A third round of arrows was shot from the water village, still blocking out the sky and the sun. However, this round's blow to the Maitreya believers was much lower than the previous two rounds.
"Come with me and slay demons. The Third Buddha is watching you!" The man in red robe was so happy that he pulled off the white cloth on his head and shouted loudly on his bare head.
"Kill the demons and eliminate the demons, kill the demons and eliminate the demons!" The believers, led by the protector, hall master and incense master, accelerated their pace again and rushed to the back door of the water village in groups, like a group of wild beasts smelling the smell of blood.
dog.
No more arrows were shot from the water stronghold, and the Song army soldiers who stayed inside seemed to have accepted their fate.
However, before most of the Maitreya believers had time to be happy, the back door of the water village, which was already close at hand, was suddenly pulled open from the inside. Following closely, more than 80 fully armed soldiers of the Song Dynasty came out on war horses.
There was a roar coming out from inside.
"Kill the thief!" Directly in front of the cavalry team, Dujuwu raised his gun and pointed forward, and at the same time accelerated his mount to the fastest speed.
The mount he brought back from Xiazhou last year roared in response, stretched out its four long legs, and hit the opponent directly, no matter who the shield holder was or what sutra he was reciting.
The distance between the two sides was less than thirty steps. The Maitreya cultist holding the shield did not even have time to dodge before Wu Mata used his spear to lift him into the air.
Pressing the gun with his left hand, holding it empty with his right hand, and clamping the horse's belly with both legs, Wu Mata was like a whirlwind, driving the horse forward and stabbing the second Maitreya cultist through the body in the blink of an eye.
Due to the reaction force, the barrel of the gun quickly bent, and then straightened quickly, flicking the body hanging on the front of the gun away. Wu You brandished the spear, stabbing left and right, and continued to advance with great force. There was no enemy in front of him.
Several captains of the Suppression Army quickly followed up, and the gap opened by the generals continued to expand. More veterans of the Suppression Army continued to push forward along the gap. Wherever they passed, broken limbs flew everywhere and blood flowed all over the ground.
