Zhou Xingyun got on his horse, then took Xu Zhiqian with him, and set off towards the forward position. The young warriors from the Wulin Alliance's logistics camp also rode two by one, following Zhou Xingyun closely, and rushed to the battlefield at a very fast speed.
Without the burden of supplies, Zhou Xingyun and others moved forward at full speed and expected to reach the mountain forest in more than ten minutes. As long as the Wulin Alliance's large force persisted for more than twenty minutes, they would be able to join up with them and join forces to fight against the evil warriors.
Now knowing that Elder Yuan and others have defected to the enemy, Zhou Xingyun's goal is not to crusade the evil sect or prevent the Spirit Snake Palace from excavating the royal tombs, but to rescue the Wulin Alliance members who are currently in trouble and minimize casualties and damage.
The four detachments of the Wulin Alliance's main force were in dire straits one after another due to the surrender of Elder Yuan, Shang Yiwen and others to the enemy, as well as the participation of Fengtian City Gate members in the battle.
The Wulin League masters of the fourth team had no choice but to fight their way out of the encirclement and try to join up with the brigade attacking the evil camp, putting the Wulin League into an ambush from all sides and telling Master Lu Shifei and Lin Heng.
However, just when the four martial arts alliance teams were each in danger, the thousand-man warrior brigade led by Lu Shifei and Lin Heng was overwhelmingly powerful, overwhelmingly repelling the evil warriors who gathered at the entrance of the enemy's base camp, and invaded the hinterland of the enemy's camp.
When Lu Shifei and Lin Heng were performing reconnaissance missions, they had sneaked into the enemy's base camp with Zhou Xingyun, so they were familiar with the terrain and knew that the disciples of the Spirit Snake Palace imprisoned the prisoners deep in the camp on the left side.
"Strange, did our operation go too smoothly?" Lu Shifei led people into the enemy camp and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"What's weird? All the people from the evil sect are being restrained by Elder Yuan and the others. We just need to save people." Lin Heng felt that the evacuation of the enemy's camp was inevitable.
There are only about 500 warriors in the Evil Alliance, and now there are more than 400 fighting against Elder Yuan and others in the mountains and forests. The main camp is naturally vulnerable.
"Where is the Master Liufan? He was supposed to be in charge of the base camp, but now we haven't even seen him." Lu Shifei felt that something was wrong. When they attacked the evil sect's base camp, the other side barely resisted and let them in.
Now the remaining evil disciples have all retreated to the entrance of the Imperial Tomb, which is also the large cave they dug.
After Lu Shifei and others broke into the camp, except for the tents, there was not even a ghost in the camp.
"It's indeed a bit strange to hear what you said." Lin Heng also realized something was wrong after hearing Lu Shifei's mention. The last time they came to investigate, in addition to evil warriors, they also saw many prisoners carrying bricks and digging soil.
Now that the Wulin Alliance brigade has invaded the enemy's base camp, those prisoners who were controlled by evil sects should react.
In other words, Baili Tongming, Chun Geng, Xiong Gaowen and other warriors from the Five Seasons Chamber of Commerce's large force should cooperate with them inside and outside to create chaos inside when they invade the evil sect's base camp.
Where are they now?
"Forget it, although it's a bit weird, it doesn't stop us from rescuing people!" Lu Shifei, with the mentality of taking care of things as they come, decisively rushed in the direction of taking the hostages.
When Lu Shifei and Master Lin Heng entered the depths of the camp and found Baili Tongming and others, they were dying. Evil warriors bound their hands and feet with ropes, forming a row and hanging them on a man-made wooden beam similar to a football goal frame.
superior.
"What's going on!" Lu Shifei quickly stepped forward and untied Baili Tongming. He secretly wondered in his heart, did Master Liufan discover that they had recovered their skills, so he abused them like this?
Baili Tongming was very weak. When Lu Shifei untied him, he reluctantly opened his eyes. When he saw everyone, his eyes twitched slightly and he uttered a hoarse voice, "Shi..."
"Stop talking, I will heal your injuries now!" Lu Shifei immediately pressed his palms on Baili Tongming's shoulders, inputting internal energy to heal his injuries.
"Let's go quickly..." Baili Tongming's dantian recovered a ray of energy, and he couldn't help but opened his mouth again and said, "Shi Lei is colluding with the evil sect... there is an ambush here..."
Is Shi Lei colluding with the evil sect? When Lu Shifei and others learned the information from Baili Tongming, they felt uneasy and puzzled.
The uneasiness is because the Wulin Alliance is very likely to fall into the enemy's trap. The puzzle is why Shi Lei colluded with the evil sect, and what did Shi Lei secretly do to the Wulin Alliance after he colluded with the evil sect.
Lu Shifei quickly recalled Shi Lei's words and deeds. After following them back to the Wulin League's camp yesterday, Shi Lei did not make any suspicious moves. He even provided many suggestions to the Wulin League based on the current actual situation, as well as some areas that needed to be guarded against.
However, just when Lu Shifei was puzzled, fire arrows filled the sky like a plague of locusts, attacking overwhelmingly.
"Enemy attack!"
"Get cover quickly!"
Seeing the rain of arrows falling, many Jianghu warriors made a quick decision and ran towards nearby camps, looking for a hiding place to avoid the rain of arrows.
Baili Tongming and other hostages were just bait abandoned by the evil warriors in the camp to lure the Wulin League members to one place, and then form an ambush from all sides to surround the main force of the Wulin League.
The overwhelming fire arrows were coming from all directions, and the first reaction of the martial arts warriors was to find cover.
However, Lu Shifei and others were wary of the enemy and could not leave Baili Tongming and others to save their lives alone.
The main purpose of the Wulin Alliance is to rescue innocent hostages who have fallen into the hands of evil warriors. Now that the arrows are falling, if they find bunkers to save their lives, what will Baili Tongming and the hostages do?
With no other choice, Lu Shifei and others could only wave their weapons or gather their Qigong to disperse the torrential fire arrows with all their strength to protect the suffering hostages.
There is no shortage of qigong masters among the members of the Wulin Alliance. Facing the overwhelming attack, Master Lin Heng quickly issued the order, "Form up! Aiki Technique!"
For a time, more than two hundred martial arts league masters stood in front of the large army without hesitation.
These two hundred or so martial arts alliance masters were all the main force of the martial arts alliance who set out from the capital and came to Xixiang City to fight against the evil sect. Their martial arts were much stronger than those of the martial arts warriors from various sects who later responded to the call of the Wulin Alliance and came to Xixiang City.
Master Lin Heng gave an order, and more than two hundred masters quickly divided into three groups and formed three teams, with each team having about sixty people.
The warriors from various sects who followed the main force of the Wulin Alliance to crusade against the evil sects saw only three groups of warriors in three rows and three teams. Their Qi converged on their palms, taking turns to take over and push their palm power forward.
Sixty warriors combined their qi and released their palms. The air wave was like a ten-foot ocean tide, rising from the ground and surging out in an instant, deflecting the oncoming arrow rain.
It is true that the sky is full of fire arrows rushing forward in succession, and only one wave of energy is not enough to resolve the current crisis.
Therefore, when the sixty warriors in the first row of the first group exerted their palm energy and fell into a state of slowing down, the sixty warriors in the second row of the second group quickly faced the wind, and everyone united their energy into one, and their palms once again
Launch the second level of air wave.
The three rows of warriors alternated in this way repeatedly, and powerful air waves followed one after another. The seemingly endless waves, one on top of another, shook away the fire arrows with the same force as the fire rain in the blink of an eye.
On the other side, those warriors who witnessed the rain of arrows reflexively sought cover and ran towards the tent next to them. However, when they were about to approach the tent, they were frightened by the sight they saw.
"Don't enter the tent! There's black oil!"
Dark liquid seeped from the corners of the tent cloth, and lonely fire arrows splashed near the tent, immediately igniting the entire tent...
It is true that the tents were set alight not to prevent the Wulin Alliance personnel from finding bunkers to avoid the rain of arrows, but to form a fuel-fueled fire to surround all the Wulin Alliance personnel who had invaded the camp and tried to rescue the hostages.
The Evil Alliance deliberately hung hundreds of dying hostages in an open space on the left side of the base camp to induce the Wulin Alliance brigade to rush to rescue them.
The tents around the open space were all tampered with and were soaked with black oil.
When the members of the Wulin League saw Baili Tongming and others dying, they were eager to rescue them. If they were not careful, they would fall into a trap.
Of course, even if Lu Shifei was cautious and noticed that the tent had been tampered with, they had to step into the trap.
Why? Because the evil warriors only need to aim their arrows at the hostages, and the Wulin Alliance personnel cannot just sit back and watch.
In fact, the evil martial artist hopes that the people from the martial arts alliance will find out in advance that the tent has been tampered with.
The moment the Wulin Alliance realized that the tent was deceitful, the evil alliance used fire arrows to attack the hostages. At this moment that tests humanity and judgment, the Wulin Alliance's thousands of people will definitely not be able to unify their course of action.
At that time, the Wulin Alliance was bound to be in chaos. Some people took risks to save people, some people retreated conservatively, and some people were even at a loss and hesitated stupidly about what to do.
It was a blessing in disguise. The Wulin Alliance put the safety of the hostages first. Everyone was eager to save the people and did not carefully check the tents around the hostages. As a result, the evil alliance was unable to take advantage of people's ambivalence when encountering danger.
, causing the entire Wulin Alliance to fall into chaos.
Now the Wulin Alliance is methodically guarding against fire arrows, which can be said to minimize the damage.
However, although the battle situation was not as good as expected by the Evil Alliance, the Wulin Alliance personnel must have been very panicked when they saw the tent fires and thick smoke spreading around them.
First, oil drums filled with black oil that were highly explosive were placed in some tents. The oil drums exploded and flames spread, causing the fire to spread.
Secondly, there is not only flammable and explosive black oil in the tents, but also special herbs accumulated in some tents.
When various special herbs are ignited, a large amount of thick smoke will be produced. Those who accidentally inhale it will suffer from dizziness, vomiting, hallucinations, suffocation and other phenomena. Excessive inhalation may even lead to sudden death.
The martial arts alliance personnel in the field can only use their internal power to resist poison, otherwise the warriors of the evil alliance will be completely annihilated without taking action.
Finally, and what chilled the hearts of the Wulin Alliance members the most, based on the number of arrows and the Evil Alliance warriors emerging from the surrounding highlands, the total number of enemy troops was estimated to be twice theirs.
The enemy was outnumbered and we still fell into a trap. The members of the Wulin Alliance suddenly understood that they were probably doomed today.
