Seeing Zhao Haiping and Li Hongyun break into the village building and beat the bandits into chaos, General Deng naturally realized that the opportunity was not to be missed and ordered his soldiers to seize the opportunity to attack the village gate.
Soon, a gap was opened in the wooden village gate, and the soldiers of Sheng Army swarmed in!
Fan Cun was still leading the way. He was carrying a heavy long card, which was already densely packed with arrows.
As for him, of course there were two or three arrows inserted into his body, and it would be difficult for Longpai to fully protect him during the charge.
But this injury was nothing to Fan Cun. The analgesic effect of the two talents and the burst of adrenaline allowed him to completely tolerate the pain and focus all his attention on killing the bandits.
Upstairs in the village, Li Hongyun and Zhao Haiping were still attacking the bandits within shooting range.
One of them used a musket and the other used a bow and arrow, both of them were very accurate.
Although the former relied on dog luck and the latter relied on solid archery skills, these two people stood on the commanding heights and indeed caused great trouble to the thieves.
The bandits on the village towers have not yet been cleared away. After all, there are several village towers in Buning Port, and they are not all connected to each other. Many bandits are hiding behind the wooden fence, and Li Hong cannot do anything to them with his musket.
But these bandits were already in panic, because the gate of the village was breached, which meant that Sheng's soldiers might rush up at any time.
In panic, their shooting accuracy was greatly reduced.
The Sheng army formed an array and advanced step by step.
The Tengpai hand blocks the arrows and swords of the bandit in front, while the wolf sword hand, boring handle and spearman in the rear can take the opportunity to stab the bandit to death.
The black air in the sky was rolling, constantly patrolling and wandering around the battlefield.
Of course, the demon is very concerned about the battle situation in Buning Port, but it is not difficult to see from its impatient performance that the battle is already one-sided.
Even though the strength of these bandits has been enhanced due to the influence of demons, they still only deserve to be beaten in front of Sheng Jun.
The reason is simple: the new army built by General Deng was entirely designed to restrain the fighting methods of bandits.
The combat effectiveness of this new army has actually exceeded that of the bandits.
The combat effectiveness and fighting will of an individual soldier are not inferior to those of the bandits; the weapons have completely restrained the weapons of the bandits; the soldiers form battle formations, cooperate with each other tacitly, and can adopt different tactics according to different terrains.
Therefore, even if the bandits' individual combat effectiveness and fighting will have improved, they will still only be massacred after encountering General Deng's new army!
In fact, among the previous thieves there were some rogues with superb swordsmanship and determined fighting will, but they were still helpless in the face of Shengjun Tengpai and Langzhen.
Now the demon has nothing more than raised the combat power of ordinary thieves to a level similar to that of the Hundred Wars Thieves.
Since there is no qualitative change in combat power, the restraint relationship between Sheng Jun and the bandits will not change much.
In fact, the greatest damage caused by the bandits to Sheng's army was limited to the period before Sheng's army entered the village gate.
Relying on barbarian bows and muskets, the bandits did inflict some casualties on Sheng's army after being strengthened by demons. However, after Li Hongyun and Zhao Haiping made a surprise attack and disintegrated the defense of the village building from the inside, the defeat of the bandits was a foregone conclusion.
The next step is to expand the results and clean up the battlefield.
Fan Cun was very excited. He also led an elite Shengjun squad to continuously kill the lone bandits.
Li Hongyun and Zhao Haiping also came down from the village tower and rejoined Sheng Jun's team.
"Hey, these bandits haven't retreated yet?" Li Hongyun was a little surprised.
Because according to the normal situation in the fantasy trial, these bandits should have retreated long ago and returned to the port to prepare to board the ship and leave.
Although there were not many ships in Buning Port, and less than one-tenth of the bandits escaped in the end, judging from the situation in previous regular trials, this was inevitable.
But now, these bandits are refusing to retreat even to the death!
According to normal circumstances, it is certainly a bad thing for the bandits to fight to the death and not retreat. This means that the bandits have a high will to fight, and they will inevitably have to pay more casualties to capture Buning Port.
But now, Sheng's army has maintained a very low battle loss ratio, and is still massacring the bandits in a one-sided manner.
Therefore, the thieves had a strong will to fight and did not retreat, which turned out to be a good thing.
Sheng Jun no longer needs to pursue, he only needs to fight the bandits to death, which undoubtedly saves a lot of time.
The demon strengthened the thieves' will to fight, which in turn accelerated the progress of Buning Port!
Black smoke billowed in the sky, and it was obvious that the demon was confused and angry.
After a while, the black smoke disappeared.
Obviously, the demon has discovered that the failure of Buning Port is a foregone conclusion and has turned its attention to the situation in Nanhe City.
As long as Nanhe City can be captured, the bandits will still have a chance to make a comeback.
…
In Nanhe City.
"Hold on! Don't let the thieves enter the city!"
The deputy general guarding the city gate shouted loudly, but to no avail. There were too many bandits and the city gate was still breached.
The thieves swarmed in!
The soldiers of Sheng's army guarding the city formed an array and started a fierce battle with the bandits.
Although these prosperous troops also had shields and wolf swords in their hands, after all, they were all old and weak soldiers. Their combat effectiveness was not very strong, and their numbers were at a disadvantage. Therefore, even if they fought bravely, they would inevitably start to retreat.
If there are enough people, the battle formation is enough to stop all thieves.
But now, many Baizhan Drifters have crossed Sheng Jun's battle formation and entered the city.
Their goal is very clear, attack the city wall, cooperate inside and outside, and first try to kill the generals guarding the city!
These bandits can also see that the generals fighting on the city are the key. Once the generals die, then the bandits on the wall of the bandit city can join forces with the bandits in the city, and Sheng's army's will to fight will also suffer a serious blow.
It will fall into a state of chaos without a leader.
These wanderers entered a low-rise residential area and headed towards the entrance of the city wall.
They walked very arrogantly.
Because in the eyes of these bandits, the real threat to them from Sheng's army was the soldiers holding wolves and forming battle formations, and those soldiers were basically concentrated at the main gate.
Now that they have broken through the main gate, there should be no Sheng army that can hinder them in this narrow terrain.
However, just as a homeless man was walking gracefully through the lanes of residential houses, a black shadow fell from the sky.
"who!"
The rogue's reaction was quick, and he had already grasped the handle of the barbarian sword with his right hand, but he was still a step too late.
Xia Ruoling had planned the ambush location in advance, so naturally he couldn't leave enough opportunity for the rogue to draw his sword.
When the common man was angry, he activated his weapon in an instant, and stabbed the thief's neck with precision with his dagger.
"puff!"
Xia Ruoling pulled out the dagger, casually shook off the blood on the dagger, and quickly hid in the alleyway.
She has already walked through the residential houses in this area countless times in simulated trials, and she can be said to know them well.
After entering the dungeon of the ultimate trial, she came to this residential area and directed Sheng Jun to cooperate with her to create some traps and roadblocks to delay the thieves to the maximum extent possible.
"Chase!"
"Stay close, don't spread out!"
Naturally, other thieves could not turn a blind eye to the death of this vagabond. Xia Ruoling's blow from the sky made these thieves frightened. If she were allowed to escape, who could guarantee that they would not be the next target?
Moreover, these thieves gathered together subconsciously to prevent them from getting too far away.
Even the assassin with superb sword skills couldn't react. He was killed by Xia Ruoling who fell from the sky with one blow. How could the other thieves escape?
So the best choice is naturally to go together and not spread out.
In this way, when Xia Ruoling tries to assassinate again, even if she can kill the target, she herself will not be able to escape at all.
This group of thieves gradually shrank their formation in the alleyway and chased in the direction where Xia Ruoling escaped.
"Where are the people?"
After a while, the thieves were lost in the maze-like alleyway.
This residential area originally extended in all directions with many trails, but now many of the trails have been blocked by wood and rocks, making movement difficult, and it has turned into a huge maze.
When Xia Ruoling escaped, it was obvious that she was deliberately leading these people into a dead end.
"Cunning Shengjun! They are stalling for time!" the leader of the bandits said angrily.
"No, it's not to delay time..." One of the thieves looked up at the roof, with a shocked expression on his face, and stumbled.
"What?"
The thieves raised their heads one after another.
They thought they would see Xia Ruoling's figure on the roof, but they were wrong.
Not Xia Ruoling, but Sheng Jun!
These soldiers of the Sheng Army did not look like elites, they were still some old and weak soldiers, but the key point was that what they were holding at this time was not waist knives, shields or bows and arrows, but a spherical object slightly larger than a gourd.
Several thieves' expressions changed instantly as they recognized this thing's name.
