"They are just temporarily retreating to the bridge to adjust their offensive, and they will attack again after everyone is gathered..." Qili'an looked back and saw that the three thousand rebels who had blocked the city gate were currently fighting fiercely with the imperial city guards, and they had probably lost about five hundred soldiers.
The number of rebels at their bridgehead increased to over a thousand. Qili'an estimated that at this rate, the enemy's reinforcements would reach 3,000 in another minute, and 20,000 rebels could reach the city within five minutes.
.
"Well, if we fight them normally, we definitely have no chance of winning." Mo Nianxi said weakly. The three hundred rebels who had just charged were mostly reckless men and third-rate warriors, so they could easily deal with them.
However, once the generals from the rebel army appear and launch a second round of offensive, they may not be able to stand it anymore.
"What? Are you scared?" Zhou Xingyun understood what the black-haired girl meant. It was impossible for the Sixteenth Emperor to not have masters around him. The Seven Destiny Martial Arts lurking in Fengtian City alone in the capital was enough for them to drink. At this time, they had not encountered any experts.
Just because you meet a tough opponent doesn't mean you won't be able to meet them later.
If one or two extremely powerful men appeared in the enemy army, it would probably be difficult for the six of them to escape alive today.
"No! I'm not afraid." Mo Nianxi replied against her will. She was indeed a little afraid, but what she was afraid of was not the enemy, but that Zhou Xingyun would be injured.
"Don't be afraid Nianxi, we will be fine." Zhou Xingyun said half-jokingly: "When normal people fight against rebels, there is really no chance of winning. Fortunately, none of us are normal people."
"It's true..." Wei Suyao sighed softly, and made a rare comment about Zhou Xingyun: "Only six people took cover and faced off against an army of ten thousand people on the city bridge. Looking at it horizontally and vertically, their brains are not normal."
Wei Suyao seemed to be joking, but her tone of voice was very serious. She probably thought so in her heart... Everyone was led astray by Zhou Xingyun. He was so stupid and rubbish that he cut off the cover and faced thousands of rebels. It was really hard to live.
Are you patient enough to look for it?
The strangest thing is that even though the situation is very serious, as long as Wei Suyao looks at Zhou Xingyun's frivolous smiling face, the tension and uneasiness in his heart will disappear in an instant.
However, Wei Suyao knew very well that the reason why Zhou Xingyun was not afraid of danger was to make everyone feel at ease and calm.
If even Zhou Xingyun, the head of the family, panics, everyone will be even more confused.
However, after experiencing the battle of Tianqi, Wei Suyao understood that he could feel at ease and calm, but he could never let his guard down and never let the tragedy happen again.
"What are you doing?" Wei Suyao was thinking about how she should protect Zhou Xingyun if a master appeared later, when she heard a strange voice from Zhou Xingyun that she didn't understand.
"I'm auditioning and practicing my voice. It's fine now. There's no problem with my voice." Zhou Xingyun shouldered his spear and took a few steps forward carelessly. He patted his chest and shouted loudly to the more than 5,000 soldiers: "Assist the Emperor."
All the rebels who rebelled against the Six Sons, please listen to me! This imperial city... I will cover it!"
"Which of you dares to act wild here? The corpses lying on the ground are a warning to you."
Zhou Xingyun loses the enemy but not the battle. He can use nonsense to delay time, which is better than the two sides directly starting a fight.
Now the two camps are racing against time. If Song Xiguang and others cannot hold on, the six Zhou Xingyun will win. On the contrary, the six Zhou Xingyun will fall. The rebel reinforcements will join Song Xiguang, and the gate of the imperial city will be equivalent to a fall.
It is true that even if Zhou Xingyun and his six men successfully defend the city bridge, how to retreat will be a problem, but now that there are ten thousand rebels in front of them, they have no time to think about the next thing.
Just as Qili'an expected, in just two minutes, nearly 8,000 rebels had gathered at the bridge.
The four people standing independently at the front of the rebel team are very eye-catching, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that they are different.
The attention of Zhou Xingyun and the other six people naturally focused on the four generals.
The opponent deliberately released pressure to test the strength of Zhou Xingyun and others...
Wei Suyao, Rao Yue, and Mo Nianxi coincidentally formed a triangle formation to protect Zhou Xingyun in the middle.
Zhou Xingyun's level of martial arts was slightly lower, and he was unable to judge the strength of the four people through the pressure released by the enemy. But Wei Suyao and others were different. They could clearly sense that three of the four were top masters, that is, Wan Fu
Level warrior.
The strength of the last person is unfathomable, but based on the experience of fighting against masters of the Martial Arts Alliance in the Battle of Tianqi, that person should be a peak warrior.
Sensing the strength of the enemy generals, Wei Suyao and others would naturally move closer to Zhou Xingyun...
The sixteenth son of the emperor, who was at the rear of the rebels, looked around at the soldiers and soldiers in front of him and suddenly laughed: "No need to wait! Everyone who is supposed to come has arrived. Eight thousand soldiers and horses are enough to capture the city bridge. General Qi obeys the order! Kill it for me.
Kill the rebel surnamed Zhou! Keep all the women for me! Especially the blond alien beauty, I want her to become my close female bodyguard!"
What he can't get is always turbulent. Not only does the Sixteenth Prince want to get Xunxuan, but he also misses the handsome Wei Suyao. Just seeing the blonde girl loyally protecting Zhou Xingyun, the Sixteenth Prince was so greedy that he wanted to kill her immediately.
Zhou Xingyun replaced him.
At this time, four of his generals arrived, plus eight thousand soldiers, so the sixteenth son of the emperor no longer needed to be polite to Zhou Xingyun.
The Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor believed that as long as he could capture Wei Suyao alive, he would have a way to make the handsome blond girl his property.
Qi Yuannai is the deputy commander of the Zhenbei Cavalry Regiment, and his strength is equivalent to the strongest in the world. Like Song Xiguang, he arrived in the capital in advance to assist the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor in his rebellion.
It is true that unlike Song Xiguang, Qi Yuan relied on his ancestral connections to become a general. Qi Yuan relied on his brilliant battlefield achievements and was promoted to the deputy commander of the Zhenbei Cavalry Division. Although he was not as good as Song Xiguang in terms of official position, in terms of strength, he was the leader of the division.
Senior master.
If there was no dispute over military merit and interests, the most suitable general to command the three thousand rebels and block the gate of the imperial city should be Qi Yuan and not Song Xiguang, but...
Song Xiguang wanted to monopolize the first priority in capturing the city gate, so he deliberately sent Qi Yuan away and personally led the team to block the imperial city gate. After all, if Zhou Xingyun and others had not shown up, this would have been an easy and pleasant job. All they had to do was hold up their shields.
After holding the city for a quarter of an hour, 20,000 reinforcements would arrive at the imperial city and help him capture the tower.
After the emperor's sixteenth son gave the order, Qi Yuan showed a bloodthirsty smile, held the Golden Dragon Guandao horizontally and bowed with his fists. He lightly replied with the sentence "The last general takes the order", and then commanded the three military generals directly under him to command the eight thousand rebels to launch a second attack.
attack.
Zhou Xingyun faced the approaching army and suddenly showed a wry smile: "Kiss Xiao Suyao, the Sixteenth Prince of the Emperor is really interested in you. He actually sent eight thousand bandits to capture you and take you back to be the wife of the village."
"I am your woman, and I will never change. If other men have evil thoughts about me, either he will die or I will die!" Wei Suyao said very seriously: "Xingyun, I have said ugly words in front of you, even if
If someone threatens me with your life, I will not betray you. However, I don’t want to see you suffer, so... I will go ahead of you..."
"No, no! Suyao, don't say such unlucky words, okay! I promise you won't fall into the hands of the enemy! But you must also promise me that you will never lose at the hands of anyone other than me."
"I wish to be a winged bird in heaven, and a twig on earth. Husband and wife are of the same mind, and live and die together." Wei Suyao was very bold today, holding back his shyness, and said love words to Zhou Xingyun with a blushing face.
Perhaps the situation was at stake, so Wei Suyao opened her heart and conveyed her deep love to her lover.
"What a loving relationship. I'm so envious of the dead. Before we fight with the enemy, there is someone who loves her to death. My dear... that golden retriever tail is waving into a fan shape, can't you see it?" Rao Yue said very rudely.
Use the taunting skill on Wei Suyuan.
"That's right! That's right! What a flying bird, what a twig, such disgusting words can't even be said by me. I'm sorry you're not ashamed." Mo Nianxi made up for it, making the shy blond girl extremely embarrassed.
"You should stop bullying Suyao. She is just more upright and confides in me in times of crisis. You should also follow her example and wag your tail to please me...Okay, okay, Suyao, don't glare at me, I won't say anything anymore.
"
"Chief, eight thousand single dogs smell the sour smell of love, just like wolves and tigers coming towards you, should I help them as a single person?" Xuanyuan Chongwu silently pulled out the long sword in his hand.
"I call you brother-in-law! Please put down your weapon and speak properly!" Zhou Xingyun faintly sensed that something was wrong. Xuanyuan Chongwu's eyes flashed with murderous intent. Could it be that he said something wrong that aroused the boy's anger... but it wouldn't have sprouted.
Murderous intention, right? Or...is there another reason for Xuanyuan Chongwu's anger?
"How can I just say "brother-in-law?" When begging for mercy, you must kneel and lick!" Xuanyuan Chongwu swooped down and stabbed Zhou Xingyun with his sword. Mo Nianxi was so frightened that he quickly pulled Zhou Xingyun away.
Of course, the target of Xuanyuan Chongwu's attack was not Zhou Xingyun, but Qi Yuan, who soared over the eight thousand rebels and rushed towards them from behind.
Qi Yuan wielded the Golden Dragon Guan Dao, soaring clouds and mist flew down from the sky, directly taking Zhou Xingyun's head.
Xuanyuan Chongwu charged up and dived, directly knocking Zhou Xingyun away. He rubbed the switch blade with his sword, prompting Qi Yuan to slash through the air and hit the stone bridge deck.
Although Qi Yuan slashed through the air with his sword, the blade with its inner strength still slashed out a half-moon arc white blade, and it hit the stone lion beside the city bridge and chopped it into pieces.
At the same time, the Golden Dragon Guandao smashed down the stone bridge deck, like a stone falling into a mirror lake, creating a strong wave of wind that instantly knocked Xuanyuan Chongwu back several meters.
Qi Yuan is a top martial artist, and it is normal for Xuanyuan Chongwu to be no match for him. What is abnormal is why Xuanyuan Chongwu would lose his cool and confront Qi Yuan single-handedly.
"Xiaoyue, Suyao, Nianxi, the other three generals are handed over to you! I will cover Chongwu while Qili'an will find a way to intercept the rebel soldiers!"
Zhou Xingyun quickly made arrangements and ran towards Xuanyuan Chongwu.
The techniques practiced by Rao Yue, Wei Suyao, and Mo Nianxi are more suitable for fighting alone. It would be right for the three of them to intercept the rebel generals. And Qili'an's range attack in the ice and snow should be able to suppress the rebel soldiers.
After all, Zhou Xingyun and his six men are not fighting alone. The guards on the city tower have their arrows on strings, ready to support and shoot the enemy. The four heavy ballistae vehicles on both sides of the city wall have long been in position, aiming at the dense crowd of rebels.
everywhere, ready to bombard the enemy at any time.
The heavy ballistae has a minimum attack range and cannot shoot Song Xiguang who rushes under the city gate. Otherwise, several rounds of explosive fire attacks will disrupt the formation of the three thousand rebels. Song Xiguang will die if he does not retreat.
