These thousands of soldiers were all carefully selected by Cheng Xiangwu. After several months of training, they have become somewhat military-like, but the ones who can truly be called elite are Cheng Xiangwu's hundreds of personal guards.
These personal guards lost a lot at first, but Cheng Xiangwu selected 20 more people to make up for it. It can be said that hundreds of personal guards are enough to fight with thousands of soldiers.
At this moment, following Cheng Xiangwu's order, hundreds of guards, led by him, rushed towards the closed door in front.
The Zhu clan elders who hid in the mansion all looked extremely ugly. Zhu Ye took a deep breath and looked at the hundreds of family guards who retreated into the mansion.
After all, these family guards are not a military team. Perhaps their individual strength is not bad. However, with so many people, they lack a tacit understanding of soldiers.
In the final analysis, the army is the strength of the collective. One man is weak, but a hundred men are strong. As long as they cooperate tacitly, even a hundred-man army may be able to surround and kill a top-notch warrior.
It is obvious that these family guards trained by the Zhu family are obviously biased towards the cultivation of personal force, but ignore the cooperation between them.
This is why the guards of the Zhu family, whose strength is comparable to that of the powerful soldiers in the army, did not kill them all with overwhelming force after surrounding Jin Yiwei and Dongchang Fanzi. Instead, they sacrificed a lot of money.
The price is what gives you the upper hand.
Zhu Ye took a deep breath and listened to Cheng Xiangwu's shouts outside the gate. A cold light flashed in his eyes and said: "Use the crossbow to stop them!"
The door shook violently. It was obviously Jing Haijun soldiers who were attacking the door. At this moment, dozens of powerful crossbows were carried over. Dozens of family guards were seen stepping forward to get the powerful crossbows, and then one by one loaded arrows and pointed them in the distance.
At the gate.
There was a roar, and two doors were opened. In a cloud of dust, a group of soldiers rushed in.
At the same time, Zhu Ye shouted: "Cum for me!"
In an instant, a hail of arrows covered the area. Those who rushed to the front were the elites carefully selected by Cheng Xiangwu from his own army. Many of them even came from the frontier army. It can be said that they have very rich combat experience.
Each of these personal guards carried a shield with them. At this moment, they were faced with a hail of arrows, but they were blocked by their shields.
However, even if they were prepared, there would be a hail of arrows, and eventually someone would be hit by an arrow and fall to the ground, but the loss would not be significant.
If they were to withstand such a wave of powerful crossbow fire without any precautions, dozens of people from even the elite Guards would be killed on the spot.
This is a powerful crossbow. Any arrow can kill a person, and it can even penetrate a shield.
Excluding the unlucky ones who were accidentally shot, more than a dozen personal guards were injured by arrows that pierced the shields. Fortunately, after being buffered by the shields, the power of the arrows was no longer fatal.
"Cum for me, shoot them to death!"
I thought that when a powerful crossbow was fired, it would at least kill a wave of people, but only a few people fell down. This made Zhu Ye couldn't help but become furious and roared again and again.
Cheng Xiangwu frowned when he saw his men and horses blocked at the gate from a distance, stepped out and shouted: "Get out of the way, let's see how this general breaks the formation!"
All the soldiers who were hiding behind their shields and enduring the fire from powerful crossbows obeyed the order almost instantly and made way for them.
Then Cheng Xiangwu grabbed a stone lion in front of the gate of Zhu's Mansion and slammed the stone lion with a roar.
The stone lion, which weighed over a thousand kilograms, was smashed out by Cheng Xiangwu, and faced dozens of family guards from the Zhu Mansion holding powerful crossbows.
These people were using powerful crossbows to suppress the Jing navy soldiers, when they heard a loud shout, and then saw a strong man in armor smashing the stone lion over.
The stone lion weighing thousands of kilograms came through the air, almost as a conditioned reflex, and the family guards facing them were frightened and fled in all directions.
But when these family guards reacted, the stone lion had already flown over. A few of them were a little slow and were hit by the stone lion.
With a roar, the bluestone on the ground shattered and blood spattered. Several family guards who were a little late were hit by stone lions on the spot.
If a stone lion weighing several thousand kilograms was smashed down on his head, even a good martial artist would be smashed into mud on the spot.
Everyone was stunned by this tragic scene. Although Cheng Xiangwu was not the strongest among everyone, his courage was shocking.
"Kill him, kill him for me!"
The fleeing family guards also came to their senses at this moment, but when they looked at Cheng Xiangwu, their eyes were full of awe.
At this moment, Cheng Xiangwu laughed loudly, and actually lifted up another stone lion, and then smashed it towards Zhu Ye, who was roaring.
Among the core members of the Zhu family, several people from the Zhu family couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw one person's eyes wide open, he jumped up and punched the stone lion fiercely.
Taizu's Changquan was indeed extremely powerful. This fist had a force of several thousand kilograms and hit the stone lion at once.
With a crackling sound, the stone lion was shattered to pieces, but the Zhu clan member who stepped forward also heard a crackling sound from his arm, and all of his arms were shattered in an instant.
Zhu Qian, the elder of the clan, couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw this situation: "My son is so reckless!"
It turned out that this man was the son of clan elder Zhu Qian, which showed that he must be a core figure in the Zhu family. One of his arms was crippled, and although his painful forehead was sweating, he did not even cry out in pain.
Cheng Xiangwu stepped forward with a spear in hand and a body of armor, which made his soldiers look evil.
Cheng Xiangwu himself was a fierce general in the army. Although he was named Uncle Dingwu, he rarely regarded himself as an earl, but more often as a general in the army.
At this time, he strode forward, his eyes fell on Zhu Liang, and he said with admiration in his eyes: "I didn't expect that there is a man like you in the Zhu family. This general can give you a happy death!"
Zhu Liang sealed the acupuncture point on his shoulder to stop the bleeding. After hearing this, he gritted his teeth and snatched the long knife from one of the guards and pointed it at Cheng Xiangwu: "If you want to fight, then fight. How can Zhu Liang be afraid of you!"
Cheng Xiangwu couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He shook his spear, and suddenly the sky was filled with phantoms of spears, covering Zhu Liang.
A bright light flashed in Zhu Liang's eyes, and he advanced instead of retreating. The long sword danced, and a clanking sound was heard. The next moment, the light of the sword disappeared in the shadow of the spear.
Zhu Qian only saw the long knife in his son's hand falling to the ground, and a spear penetrated his chest, and the spear was dripping with blood.
"My son..."
With a roar, Zhu Qian fainted in a flash.
With a flick of the spear, Zhu Liang's body fell to the side. His eyes fell on the people of the Zhu Mansion, especially the family guards. Cheng Xiangwu snorted coldly: "Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"
Immediately, a group of soldiers formed an army and rushed forward.
The gate of Zhu's Mansion was broken through, and Zhu Wengeng, who was fighting Chu Yi, couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Originally, they were evenly matched against Chu Yi.
Zhu Wengeng punched Chu Yi on the shoulder, and Chu Yi slapped his chest with a palm.
The two of them took a few steps back together. Chu Yi took a deep breath to suppress the boiling blood in his body. He looked at Zhu Wengeng solemnly and said slowly: "The emperor has ordered that the Zhu family can only have a chance of survival if they are captured without restraint. If we continue,
If you resist, it is not a crime against the five tribes."
A gleam flashed in Zhu Wengeng's eyes, and suddenly his figure suddenly disappeared into the courtyard of the Zhu family. Chu Yi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Zhu Ye and others have retreated to the third courtyard under the protection of the family guards. The eight hundred family guards now only have two to three hundred people left, and Cheng Xiangwu is leading his soldiers to attack.
It won't be long before the Zhu family will no longer be able to resist.
When Zhu Ye and the other clan elders were panicking, suddenly Zhu Wengeng's figure appeared. The moment they saw Zhu Wengeng, Zhu Ye and others' eyes flashed with surprise.
Zhu Ye looked at Zhu Wengeng with great anticipation: "Uncle, was Chu Yi killed by his uncle?"
In this current situation, only by killing Chu Yi can we break the situation and have a glimmer of hope.
So when Zhu Wengeng appeared, the first thing Zhu Ye and others thought of was whether Chu Yi had been killed by Zhu Wengeng.
Zhu Wengeng slowly shook his head, looked at Zhu Ye solemnly and said: "Master, it is difficult for the Zhu family to escape this catastrophe. For the sake of inheriting the Zhu family's bloodline, I must prioritize the inheritance of the family."
While speaking, Zhu Wengeng's eyes fell on a young man who looked about ten years old. This young man had handsome features. Although he was young, he had some spirituality. Even in this situation, he was not a little panicked.
, which was much better than the reaction of many Zhu clan members.
Zhu Ye's expression couldn't help but change, he stared at Zhu Wengeng and said in a deep voice: "Uncle, you..."
The next moment, Zhu Wengeng appeared next to the young man, grabbed the young man and said to Zhu Ye and others: "I will take Chang Ming away and hide his name, so that one day the eunuchs can be killed and the Zhu family can be reborn..."
Zhu Ye and others all looked extremely ugly. Zhu Wengeng could be said to be the pinnacle of the Zhu family. Now that Zhu Wengeng actually said such words, doesn't it mean that Huo can only protect Zhu Changming to inherit the Zhu family?
, and these people were directly abandoned!
No one wants to die, especially the core of the Zhu family who are usually aloof and enjoy all the glory and wealth. When they think of what will happen if they fall into the hands of the butcher Chu Yi, everyone turns pale, even if
As the head of the family, Zhu Ye also broke out in cold sweat.
Staring at Zhu Wengeng, Zhu Ye took a deep breath and said: "I also asked my uncle to go and kill Chu Yi and save my Zhu family..."
Zhu Ye said coldly: "This is your duty as the protector of my Zhu family. As the head of the family, I order you to kill Chu Yi..."
