Chapter 73 The offensive and defensive situation has changed!
Seeing Xu Baihu's "unable to explain" expression, Huo Yunying felt very happy.
If it weren't for the exciting and exciting process of land reclamation, where there was no room for error, he would have even laughed three times.
You traitor, you too will have this day!
During the trial of the fantasy world, this Xu Baihu caused too much trouble for the players, and was not discovered until the final stage of land reclamation.
Now it's finally tit for tat.
Of course, the battle is not over yet, and we cannot take it lightly.
This was the ultimate test with 100% pain sensation, and Huo Yunying did not dare to be hit by any knife.
Because one cut may cause his movements to deform due to pain, leading to collapse.
Fortunately, Huo Yunying had repeated the entire process countless times during the speed pass. He knew the movements and moves of these bandits by heart, as well as their positions and coordination.
Coupled with Xu Baihu's natural shield, Huo Yunying controlled Gao Ze's body to rush and kill, and it was so smooth that two or three thieves died under his sword in the blink of an eye!
The situation on the entire battlefield also changed dramatically because of Huo Yunying.
According to the original direction, after the rogues cut down Xu Baihu, many soldiers of the Dasheng Dynasty dispersed in a rush, the rogues and the shadow attendants reaped the spoils, the Tang County magistrate died in the battle, and the situation would quickly get out of control.
Because the Drifter is the most powerful of the group and poses a greater threat than the general. Once he is liberated, the consequences will be disastrous.
But now, Xu Baihu has not fallen down, and the wanderer is also tied up.
Xu Baihu was afraid that the other thieves would attack him lightly, so he did not dare to let others attack him. But every time the rogue made a move, Gao Ze, played by Huo Yunying, would disrupt the situation. Once the rogue turned his target towards Huo Yunying, Huo Yunying surrounded him.
They circled around Xu Baihu, which was called covering the flanks, but in reality they were using Xu Baihu as a human shield.
Moreover, this vagabond and Xu Baihu couldn't do it too obviously. If the vagabond ignores Xu Baihu and pursues them, wouldn't it make Xu Baihu's suspicion even more solid?
Therefore, the three people actually formed a kind of wonderful balance, and no one could do anything to anyone.
As a result, the pressure on the frontal battlefield is drastically reduced.
The Tang County Magistrate and his own soldiers fought hard with General Dongyi. The local warriors and soldiers who originally wanted to flee saw that the Tang County Magistrate, Xu Baihu and Gao Ze were all safe and sound and were still fighting to the death. The scene
It's not at all out of control, so there's no reason to run away and just keep holding on.
These Dongyi bandits also couldn't figure out why this street fight, which was supposed to be one-sided, turned into a tug-of-war!
The demon possessing General Dongyi also realized that something was wrong and said angrily: "Kill him!"
At the same time, Magistrate Tang's war horse whined and fell to the ground dead.
The magistrate of Tang County shouted "Be loyal to the emperor and serve the country" and died heroically.
There was already a gap in strength between the two sides. Although Huo Yunying's tricks lasted a little longer, they were still not enough to completely turn the tide of the battle.
Once Magistrate Tang died, the two shadow attendants were able to escape.
Under the order of General Dong Yi, the two Shadow Warriors and the surrounding thieves immediately moved closer to Gao Ze, obviously realizing that Gao Ze had caused them a lot of trouble and was a core figure who must be eliminated as soon as possible.
Huo Yunying also realized that his mission was almost completed, so he started to fight and then retreat.
Xu Baihu finally got rid of this haunting guy. He took a deep breath and looked at the vagabond again.
The corner of the rogue's mouth twitched, and he cut him to the ground with a knife.
"you……"
Xu Baihu fell to the ground with a "plop", thinking to himself, this is a harsher attack than promised before...
The vagabond had suppressed his anger and vented it on Xu Baihu.
That is to say, this person is still useful, so he should be spared, otherwise he would have been hacked to death long ago.
He still wanted to pursue them again, but seeing that the defeat was certain, Gao Ze led the remaining village warriors and militiamen to fight their way out of the encirclement and escaped.
The rogue glanced bitterly at the direction Gao Ze was escaping from, shook off the blood on his sword, and sheathed it.
…
The thieves who had just finished the fierce battle were heading towards the theater.
General Dongyi counted the number of people and found that the losses in this battle were much heavier than he imagined.
Originally, we thought that just paying the price of twenty or thirty people would be enough to wipe out the opponent, but at this time, the death toll has reached more than fifty!
There were less than sixty people left on hand, and at least half of them were injured.
This result was really difficult for him to accept.
However, considering that most of Tang County Magistrate and his soldiers died in the battle, the bandits still felt that no one in the entire county could pose a threat to them.
Although the escaped Gao Ze was troublesome, after all, there was only one person.
The top priority at this time is to rest and replenish physical strength before going on a big spree.
What's more, General Dongyi had promised the scholar to come to the theater to listen to the play, and he himself was very interested in it.
The market in front of the theater was abuzz.
These small vendors have heard that the bandits are coming, and many of them have already fled, but there are still some vendors who are reluctant to leave their stalls and are hurriedly cleaning up, but they did not expect that the battle is over.
The thieves' eyes were wide open, and they rushed straight into the market and started looting!
General Dongyi didn't say anything. He obviously knew the nature of these bandits. It would be very difficult for them to start plundering tomorrow morning. If they don't let them grab it now when they encounter the market, these bandits might not want to rebel on the spot.
.
So General Dongyi didn't say anything, since the theater was not far away anyway.
"Hurry up and finish your work. Meet us at the theater when you're done!"
With a few words, General Dongyi entered the theater with two shadow attendants, rogues and a few thieves.
There were also many thieves who entered the market to plunder, wielding barbarian knives and wantonly killing those traders who had no time to escape.
To these thieves, these traders are nothing more than lambs to be slaughtered and pose no threat.
A thief unknowingly came to the depths of the market, holding the stolen property in his hand, still greedily looking for his next target.
At this moment, his eyes glowed greedily. Not far away, a female vendor was packing her things in a panic. The baggage looked heavy, as if it contained something valuable!
"You! Don't run away!"
The bandits shouted loudly in ancient Dongyi language and rushed over quickly.
The female vendor became even more panicked. She hurriedly rolled up her bundle and wanted to run away. However, she couldn't outrun the bandit and was suddenly grabbed by the arm.
Seeing the face of this female vendor, the thief couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Because she is quite beautiful, not like an ordinary woman in this small county at all!
At this time, the tears on the female vendor's face were not dry, and her whole body was trembling, as if she was very frightened.
The thief was even happier and couldn't help but laugh and move closer.
However, his laughter soon stopped!
The thief felt a chill in his chest. He looked down in disbelief and saw that the sword on his waist had reached the opponent's hand at some point and pierced his own chest!
The so-called wakito is a short knife specially used as a secondary weapon for fighting in narrow spaces. It is also a tool for suicide under special circumstances.
However, before the thief had any thoughts of suicide, the other party had already helped him complete this mission.
The fear on the female vendor's face disappeared in an instant, replaced only by coldness and contempt.
She did not immediately draw out the sword, but skillfully covered the thief's mouth with her left hand, and then drew the knife after moving to the side to prevent blood from splattering on her body.
"what's the situation!"
Some thieves have already noticed that there seems to be something wrong here and come closer.
But the market was already in chaos, so they had no time to see the specific situation clearly.
Xia Ruoling let the bandit's body fall to the ground with a "thud", and taking advantage of the chaos, he quickly moved to other areas of the market with his sword and the baggage used for the performance, looking for the next lone target.
…
"asshole!"
General Dongyi turned livid with anger and slapped the bandit in front of him hard.
Even the possessed demon couldn't figure out why these thieves went to the market and robbed them casually, but they were able to kill three people.
And we still haven’t caught the murderer!
What's even more outrageous is that the murderer seemed to have no weapons of his own, and the murder weapon was the first bandit's sword.
Although the loss of the three people was not a serious injury, it was still difficult for General Dongyi to accept.
Because the losses in the previous battle with Magistrate Tang were already heavy, plus the losses of these three people, there were only about fifty bandits left in the theater.
The demon possessing General Dongyi and Drifter felt that there was something wrong with this invasion, but they couldn't explain it for a while.
In the end, they gave up the idea of searching for a needle in a haystack in the county town to find Gao Ze and the assassin, and turned to thinking about business.
General Dongyi glanced at the people in the theater, considering the target of tampering.
