"Boss, this guy with earrings actually blocked it!" The man holding the magic-breaking crossbow stared at Dalamt who was nailed to the city wall more than ten feet away, and whispered to the captain beside him.
The person he made the captain was a veteran of the Shenfeng Battalion. He looked to be over fifty years old. The knotted muscles on his arms were exposed to the air, allowing the wind and sand of the Western Regions to invade him.
"Everyone immediately mounted the crossbows, retreated three feet and spread out. No one is allowed to attack without my order." The veteran immediately judged the variables on the current battlefield. Although his internal strength was not high, he had experienced
The battles are extremely rich, and naturally the most secure arrangements have been made.
Lin Fenghuo looked at the bloody sand surrounding Dalamt and was also shocked. It was not that he was shocked by the specialness of the other party's skills. After all, he had seen people who could control sand. Li Xintian had this ability, but he could
It is rare to be able to resist the attack of twelve demon-breaking crossbow arrows.
"Haha, you people from the Central Plains are really cunning. Let's call you smart. You often have blind self-confidence. You know you can't do something but you still do it. But if you are stupid, you are also responsible for these conspiracies.
Come up with it!"
The third master of the horse thief with a cold expression slowly walked down the wall. It must be said that the power of these twelve crossbow arrows was still very terrifying. The moment they hit Dalamt, he was completely embedded in it.
Inside the city wall.
"Pfft!" He spit out the remaining blood in his mouth, as well as a broken tooth. Thinking about it, even if he had caught all the attacks just now, he would have been seriously injured. But to say that he was seriously injured and lost his combat effectiveness, it was obviously not
To that extent.
…
The unusual movement here finally attracted the attention of the horse thieves not far away. Seeing that their third boss was injured, these horse thieves who had been licking blood from the knife edge all year round would naturally not just watch.
As the group of horse thieves surrounded them, the guards in Loulan City also went on alert. These ruthless bandits, who make a living by robbing homes and houses, never know what human nature is. If they were allowed to break through the city, then all the villagers in the city would be miserable.
die.
Fortunately, before this group of horse thieves could join up with their leader, they had to fight back through a group of old soldiers holding magic-breaking crossbows. The crossbow bolt, which could rival a single blow from a Mang Realm warrior, instantly wiped out a group of horse thieves rushing in front.
When they were about to launch a combined attack, their formation was suddenly thrown into chaos.
The fighting power of the horse thieves in the Western Regions is indeed fierce, and their running ability and resilience are far superior to those of thieves and bandits in other places. This is probably an important reason why they can survive in the Western Regions for a long time. However, a rabble is a rabble, and they cannot win in an elite battle.
The tabletop of the array.
A hundred horse thieves can easily kill an army of a hundred people, and the strength of a few thousand horse thieves can also compete with a well-disciplined army in a siege battle. Once the number reaches ten thousand, let alone a group of horse thieves, even if the number is doubled again
Twice as much, it is no match for the regular army.
The senior leaders of the Holy War Hall understand this truth, so their attitude towards these horse thieves is very ambiguous. Regarding the action of eradicating the horse thieves, they adhere to the three principles of Neptune: "Don't take the initiative, don't refuse, and don't take responsibility."
Some high-level officials of the Demonic Cult have obviously seen the attitude of the Holy War Hall. They do not want to cause any split among the countries in the Western Regions. However, in line with the principle of "destroying a region is worse than causing chaos in it", many thieves are behind the scenes. Everyone has the shadow of the Demon Sect. The warriors of the Demon Sect can also obtain the resources they need, such as practicing magical skills.
Of course, the most rewarding thing is that the Demon Cult will also instruct these horse thieves to besiege those countries that do not report to the group. Neutral countries like Loulan Kingdom are their goals. And the ultimate beneficiaries of this are naturally the rulers of the countries in the Western Regions.
, Holy War Hall!
In this way, the two super sects that often had minor frictions between the Demonic Cult and the Holy War Hall reached a tacit understanding on this matter. Both sides took what they had gained, which was considered a kind of cooperation.
But if you want to say that the Holy War Hall and the Demonic Cult wear the same pants, it is still too one-sided. For huge forces like the two of them, it is difficult to say who is completely opposed to the other. Indeed, huge forces in the world
The world of human beings has become more and more complex, and even many sect leaders or sect leaders have their ancestors as proud disciples of rival sects.
This kind of thing happens often. After all, the marriage of the elite disciples in the sect is decided by the senior sect. On the one hand, it is to stabilize the status of the world, and at the same time, it is also to consolidate the mutual constraints between the eight sects.
This kind of thing is indispensable for the continuation of the previous large sects.
…
Seeing this, Lin Fenghuo immediately came to Lin Lei's side. He knew that he was likely to get into a melee, and it was unlikely that he would fight this guy named Dalamt alone again.
The war was about to break out! Lin Fenghuo did not dare to take advantage of the situation and directly joined forces with Lin Lei to deal with the third master of the horse thief. However, the opponent was obviously affected by the crossbow attack just now and fell into a disadvantage for a while.
On the other hand, the surrounding horse thieves were fighting with dozens of veterans of the Shenfeng Battalion, and the situation on the field was no longer as optimistic as before. Although the soldiers of the Shenfeng Battalion had good personal combat capabilities, they also had the "Blast of Wind Exploding Yuan Jue" nearby.
However, the number of people is too small after all. Compared with the vanguard of the horse thieves, which has 300 people, they are still struggling.
Fortunately, not long after the battle between the two parties, there was a commotion from the rear of the horse thieves. A moment later, Qi Chengcheng and the other ancestors of the Shenfeng Battalion surrounded them from the rear. Although there were not many people, they were fast.
When the horses are in a hurry, the momentum is no worse than that of thousands of troops. Of course, the main reason is the protection of the sandstorm, which prevents these horse thieves from seeing the real situation.
In addition, Dalamt was no longer among them to command the battle. In the face of emergencies, they began to fight independently, which quickly tilted the balance of victory to Loulan's side.
Just as Loulan's south city was in a melee, Wu Li and Xiao Yuanfeng in the north city were in a different situation. A total of seven hundred cavalry gathered outside the north gate of Loulan.
The sandstorm did not stop, and even the soldiers guarding the city could feel the sting of the gravel on their faces, but these stings were nothing at the moment! The reason why they could clearly see the details of these seven hundred horse thieves was that
Because they were under the city at this time, less than twenty feet away from the city wall.
The guards with spears in their hands could even faintly hear the excited gasps of the horse thieves and the restless snorting of the horses.
"These hateful guys actually lied to us! I'm going to invite Lin Fenghuo and Lin Lei back. This is obviously the main force of the enemy!" Wu Li muttered angrily as he looked at the horse thieves below the city.
On the contrary, Xiao Yuanfeng beside her was very calm. He waved his hand and said: "Since they can appear here, it means that they have arranged everything. As expected, the battle at the South City Gate is also fierce.
If you go there hastily like this, it will easily upset the morale of the army!"
Having said this, he looked towards the bottom of the city, and he could vaguely see a bald man sitting on a tall, dark horse.
