Groups of black-armored soldiers gathered at night in the woods on the border of Chunfeng Town.
"Sir, the gathering has been completed!"
A capable soldier bowed and said.
The leader was a general wearing red armor with an unusually strong build. This person was none other than Liu Dong, the leader of the four cavalry generals under Ji Rentu's command.
"The general has ordered us to attack Chunfeng Town at night, but the target is not some important figures from the Feng Shui Gang, but several caravan members from Yinren Town." Liu Dong's cold voice sounded in the clearing in the forest.
, he glanced at everyone present. They were all soldiers led by himself, so their combat quality was naturally not bad.
The red-armored man paused and continued: "My request is very simple. Complete the task neatly and without any extraneous matters!"
A group of black-armored soldiers suddenly agreed.
At this time, the capable soldier who had just reported to him asked in a low voice: "Sir, if we attack Chunfeng Town secretly like this, the general will not be afraid..."
The soldier did not dare to say the rest, but Liu Dong naturally understood his worries.
"What can we do if we know? Give a man who sells fish and salt, give him the courage, will he dare to openly challenge us in Luoye City? Don't worry, we will not attack their real armed forces. This operation is just to knock down the mountain and shake the tiger.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!" Liu Dong, who was wearing red armor, said with twinkling eyes.
Pairs of black-armored soldiers mounted the pitch-black horses one after another. Without Liu Dong's instructions, they turned into a black torrent and disappeared into the night.
The hooves of these horses are all wrapped in cotton, and the entire cavalry team is like a ghost in the night! Swift, silent, and full of murderous intent!
Luo Yechen's "Black Rider" is the enemy's nightmare in the dark night.
…
The speed of the cavalry cannot be matched by human power, let alone by those who are chasing behind.
Yi Xifeng felt the crossbow arrows coming towards them through the storm of sword light around him. Even if they dealt with them carefully, the fair boy's internal energy was consumed a lot along the way.
"These people are too clingy. Do they plan to hang behind us like this?" Xia Mingfei asked helplessly.
"Captain Lu, be careful!" the boy with the double sword suddenly warned.
I saw a crossbow arrow heading straight for the short-haired girl. The difference was that this crossbow arrow did not pause like the others. It paused for a moment in the sword curtain. The crossbow arrow exploded the moment it hit the sword curtain.
The powerful thunder and fire directly tore apart the sword curtain around Lu Huahua. After hearing Zhao Long's reminder, she also waved the black iron rod in her hand to defend herself.
Fortunately, Lu Huahua was a martial artist from the outside world, and her physical training skills were much better than Yi Xifeng's. But simply because of her resistance to lightning, she couldn't compare to the fair boy.
Lu Huahua was originally located behind Yi Xifeng, not far from Zhang Yanshi in the third echelon. Seeing that his old partner was attacked by the "Zhenwu Crossbow Thunder", the heroic young man jumped up to the girl regardless of the crossbow arrow attack behind him.
Behind him, he blocked the attack of the Demon-Breaking Crossbow that followed her.
"Everyone, be careful. Although they don't have many crossbow mines in their hands, they must be careful to prevent them from making a surprise attack." Zhang Yanshi glanced at everyone and warned.
Li Xintian pinched this finger in her hand, and the inner energy of the thick earth flowed into the earth along her feet.
With this unique skill "Kun Eye", she can already use this short-term fluctuation of internal energy to detect the enemy's position.
"The enemy behind him has slowed down, we can speed up." Through this radar-like stunt, Li Xintian can accurately observe the various activities of the enemy behind him on the ground.
Since coming out of the southwest city gate, the group has experienced nearly ten waves of arrow rain attacks. Although the density is not high, everyone has to be careful to defend themselves. Fortunately, although these black-armored soldiers are well-trained, their own martial arts realm is also not high.
At the level of the realm of potential, after more than half an hour of chasing and fighting, their physical strength was naturally unable to keep up.
"Quick, let's increase the speed first. If the enemy general notices that the soldiers' physical strength has declined, he will change new tactics!" Zhang Ming, the leader, naturally heard the conversation here and reminded him.
As the saying goes, predict the enemy first, and that's what it means.
Qin Kai stood on a hill and found that Zhang Ming and his group in front suddenly accelerated their advance, and even the eight-sided sword curtain released by Yi Xifeng became somewhat sparse.
The armored man sneered and said, "You actually speed up within the attack range of the Demon-Breaking Crossbow! Are you trying to be a target?"
Then he gave the order to pursue!
As long as the opponent can withstand two waves of arrows while moving at such a high speed, he firmly believes that there will be gains.
But after a few breaths, the soldiers who had been well-trained in the past were unable to increase their speed. The enemy they saw was getting farther and farther away, and they were about to jump out of the attack range of their own magic-breaking crossbows.
A general stumbled over and said in a trembling voice: "General, general... the soldiers can't run anymore! They have been running for more than thirty miles!"
For ordinary people, traveling a distance of thirty miles is extremely difficult to accomplish. Even for those who practice martial arts, marching thirty miles in just half an hour is a huge challenge.
And these black-armored soldiers can't help but be fully armed, carrying magic-breaking crossbows and wearing black armor. They also need to constantly replace the crossbow arrows and fire them.
Being able to sustain a thirty-mile night march is enough to be called an "elite division."
Qin Kai looked at the people who had run away, with a trace of amusement leaking from the corner of his mouth. He murmured: "That's right, I'll let you toss around for a while longer!"
………………Dividing line………………
Liu Dong quickly sneaked into Chunfeng Town with his elite black cavalry.
But the red-armored man didn't know that when they were heading here, the Feng Shui Gang's intelligence department received this news.
Yan Qing looked at the case in his hand, with a proud smile on his face.
Yes, this third hall leader is the head of the intelligence department of Chunfeng Town.
The division of labor in Chunfeng Town is actually very clear. The boss, Yan Mingbo, is both the mayor and the leader of the Feng Shui Gang. He is in charge of all affairs in Chunfeng Town.
Tianzitang, the leader of the hall, Hao Xinhu, is mainly responsible for the armed forces of Chunfeng Town, and is also the person in charge of the Fengshui Gang's water transportation.
Dizitang, Tangzhang Yaoyao, is mainly responsible for the money and finance of Chunfeng Town, and is also the person in charge of Fengshui Gang's trade.
Renzitang, the leader of the hall, Yan Qingguan, is mainly responsible for the infrastructure construction of Chunfeng Town, and is also the person in charge of the Fengshui Gang's intelligence.
This is why he was the one who came out to meet Zhou Di and others at the dock. When Yan Mingbo welcomed Ji Rentu into Chunfeng Town, he had predicted that Yinren Town would not give up. No. 5
Yan Mingbo knew that the geographical location of Chunfeng Town made him useless for his heroic ambitions. But he was not willing to be manipulated like this, so he decided to make the water in Luoye County even more muddy!
"It seems that this Ji Rentu is just as big brother said. Haha, Kong has the ability to lead troops in war, but he comes to our Chunfeng Town to take credit! Since he is here, he must be prepared to be tricked!" Yan
Qingguan said to himself.
…
"Sir, the fisherman's house on the hillside in front is where Yinren Zhong's family is located." The capable soldier bowed and said to his lord.
Liu Dong sat on his mount and stared at the unknown fishermen in the distance. It was already close to midnight. Their group was originally stationed near the border of Chunfeng Town to respond to his master in case anything happened.
, he can also lead this army to fight over and rescue his master.
This time when they entered the hinterland of Chunfeng Town, they had no way of hiding their whereabouts. If they were to hide, they would at best wrap the horses' hooves with cotton cloth, in order not to alert others. As for the hidden whistles left along the way in Chunfeng Town, they automatically ignored them.
After all, both parties know it well, one is acting and the other is watching, both are indispensable.
"Surround them first and have everyone prepare their magic-breaking crossbows. If they encounter stubborn resistance, just shoot and kill them!" Liu Dong didn't have much favorable impressions of Yinren's people.
The battle in Tiexin Village six months ago was regarded by the red-armored man as a stain on his military career. Although he survived, his soldiers suffered heavy casualties.
…
Zhou Di listened to everyone's speculations and felt that things were gradually coming to light. Many of the previous doubts were explained. Even the rumor that Yan Mingbo hated Ji Rentu could be found.
Already.
"Wait a moment!"
Suddenly, Wang Bodang, who was standing at the door, raised his hand and said.
Everyone cast their doubtful eyes on the sturdy young man. At this time, he was dressed as a coachman and had wrinkles painted on his face, making him look like a middle-aged man.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fenghuo, who had dark skin, asked. Among everyone present, Lin Fenghuo and Wang Bodang had the best relationship. After all, they often drank together and had very similar temperaments and personalities.
Uncle Wang frowned and said, "That's not right!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's heart trembled. They were on a mission with other forces this time, so they were naturally extremely vigilant. The meaning of the strong young man could not be more clear.
Zhou Di, as the person with the highest level of cultivation among the people, immediately sent out internal energy fluctuations to investigate. But after a few breaths, the young man holding the halberd frowned and said: "There is nothing abnormal!"
Wang Bodang still had a gloomy look on his face. He looked out through the crack in the door into the darkness, and deliberately lowered his voice and said, "I didn't feel any fluctuations in my inner energy."
Hearing these words, Qi Chengcheng on the side breathed a sigh of relief and muttered: "Is it okay to be scared at night?"
"However, I can conclude that there must be a problem." Wang Bodang said word by word.
…
The black cavalry placed their horses on the opposite hillside, and they carefully surrounded the fisherman's house.
This fisherman's house is located halfway up the mountain, and there are no other fishermen around. It looks a bit lonely, but it is convenient for this group of black-armored soldiers to encircle them.
A black-armored soldier held the magic-breaking crossbow in his hand and approached the fisherman's house step by step.
They are not worried that they will be discovered by the other party. Due to the large number of people this time and the fact that they are all equipped with magic-breaking crossbows, they can form an encirclement from a long distance. In this way, when the circle is narrowed, even if they are discovered,
It's too late.
This is why Zhou Di didn't find this group of people just now when he used his inner energy wave induction. They were not close to here at that time and were out of the range of perception.
Of course, the perception here refers to normal conditions. If there is a warrior like Li Xintian in the room who has learned the unique skill of "Kun's Eye", then this tactic will still have no effect.
Seeing that the whole courtyard of the fisherman's house was within the shooting range of the Demon-Breaking Crossbow, Liu Dong, who was wearing red armor, waved his hand and said flatly: "Solley!"
"Buzz buzz!"
There were four hundred demon-breaking crossbow arrows heading straight for this fisherman's house. The next moment, this dimly lit house was shot into ruins!
An arrow from the Demon-Breaking Crossbow is enough to be worth a blow from a Mang Realm warrior! This small fisherman's hut is as fragile as scraps of paper under this rain of arrows!
"My lord, they have all been destroyed!" A soldier ran to Liu Dong and reported in a low voice.
As one of the four cavalry generals fighting on one side, he knew the power of these crossbows. Four hundred demon-breaking crossbows, let alone the Zhong family caravan, even if there were four chivalrous warriors in the room, they would still die.
born.
"Clean the battlefield and see if there are any survivors! Remember, you don't need to take back the arrows, just insert them here." Liu Dong ordered his subordinates.
In fact, cleaning the battlefield was just his own practice. His bloody cruelty towards the prisoners was also an important reason why he won Ji Rentu's love. After all, Ji Rentu's "human slaughter" came from his brutal killing of prisoners.
But what the man really wanted to tell his subordinates was not to take back the arrows.
The purpose of this attack on Chunfeng Town to kill Yinren's caravan was to give Yan Mingbo a beating and let him know the gap between the forces of the two sides. In the eyes of men like them who are fighting on the battlefield, sometimes there are no good words to say, so why not
The effect is good if you tap it.
However, just as the black-armored soldiers approached the house that had been shot into ruins, a figure suddenly rushed out from the ruins. This man was covered in purple thunder and lightning, and a square halberd seemed to attract thunder from heaven and earth, and he rushed straight to the nearest house.
A group of black armored soldiers came.
"No! There is an enemy attack!" This group of soldiers was obviously stunned by the scene before them. It was hard for them to believe that anyone could survive such a dense rain of arrows.
The surrounding soldiers immediately picked up their magic-breaking crossbows and were busy loading new crossbow arrows.
But before they could load the crossbows, many black-armored soldiers fell to the ground. Maybe there was no one behind them, leaving only a faint golden cross.
Time goes back to before the cup of tea.
Although Wang Bodang did not feel any abnormal fluctuations in internal energy, the strong young man with rich jungle experience still discovered something unusual.
Just now, the cicadas around them, who were originally chirping cheerfully, collectively silenced themselves.
It was just when the cicadas stopped chirping that Liu Dong led a group of black-armored soldiers and began to slowly surround their fisherman's hut.
Zhou Di naturally chose to believe Wang Bodang's judgment and waited for everyone to enter the fisherman's cellar.
The main reason why this fisherman's house is built on the mountainside is because of this huge cellar. The Chunfeng River is flat and has many branches. If the fisherman's house along the river digs a cellar, water will seep out if it is not dug deep enough.
.
If you want to build a cellar to store things, you must choose it on the mountainside far away from the river bank.
