This scene was something no one expected.
Zhai Le watched Gu Chi fall in amazement.
Asked carefully: "Brother Shen, why are you-"
Shen Tang lowered his eyelids slightly, wiped the sharp sword with an indifferent expression, and asked Zhai Le in a calm voice: "Why?"
Seeing that Shen Tang had no sense of shame at all, as if he was the one meddling in other people's affairs, Zhai Le was speechless for a moment.
He said awkwardly, "That's why I knocked him out."
Gu Chi saved Shen Tang's life.
Shen Tang said confidently: "To take him away."
Zhai Le: “…”
To be honest, he only saw that Brother Shen wanted to kill someone.
Shen Tang read Zhai Le's true thoughts from his subtle expression and explained to him calmly: "You misunderstood, I didn't intend to kill him."
Zhai Le breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could completely relax, he heard Brother Shen say the second half of the sentence in a calm voice: "If I can't take him away, I will kill him, don't worry."
Zhai Le: “…”
No, he was not at all reassured.
"I'm not repaying kindness with hatred." Perhaps worried that his friends would misunderstand, Shen Tang added, "Favor is favor, hatred is hatred, I can tell the difference clearly. If Gu Chi can be used by me, I will repay him tenfold; if not, then we will only have hatred!"
Zhai Le was stunned again.
Shen Tang had no intention of continuing to explain.
She rubbed her aching forehead uncomfortably.
Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes were slightly closed, and her brows never furrowed.
Qi Shan urged, "The situation is critical, we can't delay any longer."
The shouting and screaming outside the house were getting closer and closer.
The footsteps were messy and the noise was noisy.
Everything indicated that this was not a good place for casual conversation.
Chu Yao solemnly entrusted Qi Shan: "Take good care of Wu Lang."
If anything happens to Wulang, he will ask Qi Yuanliang to personally demonstrate what "anything happens to you" means!
Qi Shan rolled his eyes in annoyance.
Does Chu Wuhui need to remind me of this
Zhai Huan selected two people to follow Qi Shan to escort the seriously injured Captain Yang and Shen Tang out of the city. After agreeing on a meeting place, they each rushed to the battlefield.
As the defense line of the Xiaocheng city gate collapsed, a large number of rebels rushed in with unstoppable force, and the garrison soldiers had no choice but to fight and retreat, leaving behind bloody bodies of their comrades along the way. These bodies were trampled into pulp by the rebels in the melee.
Zhai Huan raised his hand and three words came out.
The black and white literary energy flowed directly into Zhai Le's body.
“Benevolence can win the support of the people, courage can bring courage, and strictness can establish authority!”
At the same time, he launched a morale-boosting speech.
In the previous battle under the city, Zhai Le's martial energy was depleted, but not much. He was still able to use the Wudan Tiger Talisman, and with the help of his cousin, his movements were almost unaffected. Hundreds of ink dots turned into simple rattan armor to wrap around the soldiers' vital parts, and they held spears, swords and shields in their hands.
Chu Yao is a general who possesses all five virtues.
He cooperated with Gong Shuwu once.
There is a natural tacit understanding between masters...
Emmm…
Except Qi Yuanliang!
Soon, a large number of rebels rushed into the alley.
Under your feet is a bloody road paved with blood!
"kill-"
"Kill—"
With loud and exciting shouts of killing, the rebels were full of vigor and vitality, leaving no one alive wherever they passed. But no one expected that at this moment, the houses on both sides of the alley would burst out with terrifying momentum.
"kill!"
The voice of the person coming was like thunder.
General Gong Shuwu infused his martial energy into his voice.
The nearest rebel soldier screamed in pain, and felt someone hitting his head with a hammer, spitting blood and losing consciousness. The rebel who was knocked away was even more miserable, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
Before he could catch his breath, he was trampled to death by his comrades who rushed over.
Weapons clashed and shouts of killing shook the sky!
Soon, the ground was covered with bloodstains.
Gong Shuwu set his sights on the small leaders among the rebels.
He shouted loudly: "Die, little thief!"
The weapon in his hand emitted a beam of light over a meter long.
On the path of light, the rebels were either knocked flying or cut in half. The small leader was horrified at the sight, and before he could fully react, the warhorse under Gong Shuwu's crotch raised its hooves high and flew towards him, stepping on the corpses of the rebels.
The neck felt cold and the head fell to the ground.
What would it be like if a high-level warrior broke into a group of ordinary soldiers who were unable to form a formation? It was like a wolf breaking into a flock of sheep!
Kill indiscriminately!
Gong Shuwu led more than 400 Wuqi soldiers to block the narrow alley. The rebels who rushed to the front naturally died the fastest. While the rebels were blocked, the Zhai Huan brothers also achieved considerable results.
With the help of the two scholars, the rebels who had been advancing triumphantly were forced to move forward, but the situation was still not optimistic and soon attracted the attention of the rebel commander. The first to arrive was a strange-looking Wudan general, but a sixth-rank official.
He was chopped off his horse by Gong Shuwu almost as soon as they met.
The head flew up into the sky and blood splattered.
Gong Shuwu's expression was always solemn, his eyes were cold, and he quickly and numbly harvested the lives of the rebels like a meat grinder on the battlefield, and even forced the rebels to retreat dozens of feet! However, as the Wuqi soldiers were killed and injured, the advantage was slowly equalized.
At this time, another brave rebel warrior arrived.
Eighth class public bus!
It is still one of the eighth-class public vehicles that is about to break through.
His strength is not much different from Gong Shuwu.
"Die! Accept your fate!"
Gong Shuwu was too lazy to say anything. He just kicked the hooves of the warhorse under his crotch and charged forward like a black meteor. The rebel soldiers he met along the way were either hit or trampled by him. The warhorses of Wudan warriors were basically as tall as a person, and their size would increase as the strength of the Wudan warriors increased.
One kick from the hoof would crush your head!
clang!
clang!
The weapons in the hands of both sides were wielded so tightly that no air could penetrate or water could get in.
The next moment, a huge and solid blood-red light blade came!
Another eighth-class public passenger of similar strength.
Gong Shuwu's face was already stained red by the blood of the rebels, and his original facial features could not be seen, except for his cold, scarlet eyes filled with murderous intent. He snorted coldly, raised his hand and smashed the attacking martial energy blade. He shouted heroically: "Come on together if you dare!"
One of them said angrily: "You are so arrogant!"
Another person rushed over on horseback: "You're looking for death!"
One against two!
Three moves, five moves, ten moves, thirty moves, fifty moves...
The two eighth-rank officials felt a little gloomy.
Under the joint attack of the two, Gong Shuwu was not in any dilemma, and his strength did not weaken at all. Instead, he became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and the force on them became heavier and heavier.
At this time, one person shouted angrily: "Don't be arrogant!"
After saying that, he took advantage of the gap when the other person was defending and formed a longbow.
Dozens of cold arrows were fired at the same time.
Not only did the cold arrows from this eighth-rank official fail to hurt Gong Shuwu, but most of them were knocked away by him and all reflected back at him.
The alleys were narrow and most of the people there were our own soldiers.
They accepted all the arrows with a smile.
Screams rang out one after another.
Gong Shuwu laughed out loud upon seeing this, opened his bloodshot eyes, and challenged the two men: "Is this your strength? You come to fight without eating? Go home and feed your baby!" After that, he launched another intensive attack, each one faster and heavier than the last.
The two eighth-class coaches were furious.
Unfortunately, only a limited number of soldiers can enter the alley.
Gong Shuwu took great advantage here.
clang!
Another strong attack!
With a loud bang, the martial energies of the three men collided head-on. The blast of air blew away or killed the soldiers who were close to them. Those who were not dead also bled from all their orifices and had no strength to fight anymore!
The two eighth-rank officials were forced back several steps, and the horses under their crotches neighed in pain, almost knocking them to the ground.
Although Gong Shuwu did not retreat, he was also shocked and his blood was boiling.
Before the dust had settled, he charged forward again.
At this time, the two eighth-rank officials finally showed a hint of fear in their eyes - they clearly felt that from the very beginning of the fight, Gong Shuwu's momentum was rising at a steady speed!
The latter's martial energy seemed to be endless.
It is inexhaustible and can be used endlessly.
This is totally unreasonable!
If he used some secret methods or secret medicine to enhance his strength, the effect of the medicine should have worn off after so much time had passed. But seeing that Gong Shuwu became braver and more ruthless as he fought, how could he show any signs of exhaustion
The only possibility is that -
Gong Shuwu is about to break through!
Yes, Gong Shuwu was indeed about to make a breakthrough.
His accumulation was already sufficient, and he only lacked an opportunity to be promoted to the tenth-rank Zuo Shuzhang. However, he never encountered it and could not break through the bottleneck that seemed within reach but was actually difficult to shake.
Today, after watching the fight between Gong Xichou, Captain Yang and Zhai Le on the city wall, he felt that his own martial energy was becoming restless, and that the bottleneck was showing signs of loosening, which was a precursor to a breakthrough.
Until now—
He killed the first rebel soldier.
The latter's blood splattered on his hands, and the heat of the blood flowed along his skin, almost warming his Danfu Wudan. An inexplicable boiling impulse rolled in his blood, and the martial energy circulated wildly along his meridians. He gradually became bloodshot,
It was as if a voice in my head was whispering—
not enough!
Not enough!
It’s far from enough!
Until two eighth-class coaches appeared, the burning anxiety was finally soothed for a moment, and the voice became - Kill them! Kill them! Kill them all!
These people are all running dogs of the Pig King!
King Zhu is Zheng Qiao's brother!
Zheng Qiao is the enemy who destroyed the Xin Kingdom and ruined the Gong family!
Just kill them all and your bloodthirstiness will be satisfied!
so-
Gong Shuwu said coldly and crazily: "You all deserve to die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic and vast martial energy burst out from his body, followed by a bone-shaking wolf howl. Behind Gong Shuwu, a giant wolf with scarlet eyes, black long hair, and a slightly illusory figure quickly gathered.
The moment it appeared, the giant wolf leaped high and rushed towards the rebels blocking the alley. Its sharp claws pierced through the flesh and blood of the rebel soldiers like a knife cutting tofu. The two eighth-class officials were horrified when they saw this. They released their martial energy and condensed it into a strong force.
The two were slapped into a house on the side by a claw.
With two loud bangs, the house collapsed and buried them.
Although his life was not in danger, he was in a very miserable state.
The giant wolf was still trying to expand its victory, but in the next moment it sensed a deadly danger. Its fur exploded, its fangs clenched, and a dangerous growl escaped from its throat. On the roof not far away was a familiar dark green reticulated giant python.
The giant python was swallowing its tongue and looking coldly at the giant wolf.
Without any hesitation, the giant wolf pounced on the giant python.
There seemed to be a flash of mockery in the giant python's eyes.
It also launched an attack, opened its bloody mouth, and ejected its fangs, aiming directly at the most vulnerable part of the giant wolf's neck. At the same time, it curled up its body and tried to wrap around the giant wolf. The giant wolf was agile and fought back with its iron claws. The wolf and the python tangled together.
There were several loud bangs, and seven or eight houses collapsed.
at the same time-
Gong Shuwu seemed to sense something and glanced somewhere.
In the direction where the giant python appeared, a tall and sturdy figure stood on the roof. This person stood facing the wind, and the red tassel on the tip of the snake halberd fluttered in the wind. This person was Gong Xichou, who forced Captain Yang to ignite his courage and forcibly cross the level to fight against the general, but still lost!
Gong Shuwu's eyes lit up and he was eager to fight!
Gong Xichou: “…”
Don't be so sharp-eyed...
He had played enough for today and didn't want to warm up and loosen up his muscles for the time being.
only-
Looking at the giant pythons fighting excitedly, he curled his lips.
Gong Shuwu shouted and challenged him: "Do you dare to come down and fight?"
Gong Xichou: “…”
Whoever doesn’t dare is a grandson!
Without saying a word, he picked up the double crescent snake-shaped halberd and attacked from top to bottom, saying to the two losers crawling out of the ruins: "This man's life is mine, you go and support other battlefields."
Two dusty eighth-class buses: "..."
What else can I do
Others came out to grab military merits, how could they win
He could only clasp his fists and say, "Yes, I will obey your command!"
After saying that, he kicked his foot and ran away like a cannonball.
Chu Yao, who silently assisted but had little presence: "…"
To be honest, he had little confidence in this battle.
However, Gong Shuwu had just broken through, and his emotions were still high and belligerent, and his mind was running away from home. In this state, Gong Shuwu only wanted to fight, and he would not retreat even if he was asked to.
So Chu Yao looked around.
He ordered the soldiers formed by Gong Shuwu to retreat.
Gong Shuwu, who was promoted to the tenth rank of Zuo Shuzhang, had a fight with Gongxi Chou, and the destructive power was not small, so these martial arts soldiers had to be used sparingly.
Gong Xichou: "Why would you seek death as a mere tenth-rank Zuo Shuzhang?"
Gong Shuwu’s answer was to pick up a knife and kill him!
They start fighting as soon as they disagree.
After a few attempts, Gong Xichou gradually got into the better situation.
Compared to the powerful enemies here, Zhai Le's side is better. He basically doesn't see any high-level generals with a higher level of martial courage than him. He and his cousin cooperate well, and with the addition of the hundreds of soldiers stationed by Captain Yang, the battle situation is not critical and they can maintain a certain advantage for a short time.
only-
No matter how hard the two groups of troops tried, it would be a drop in the bucket for the entire battle situation in Xiaocheng and they would not be able to turn the tide.
In less than an hour, the outer city, four city gates and three city gates were lost one after another.
A large number of people had no time to flee.
There are many of them and they walk slowly.
Seeing the rebels coming, the place was already in chaos.
Crying, begging, cursing, wailing...
The voices of men and women, young and old, intertwined into one.
These sounds did not move the murderous rebels, nor did they move their hearts, which were as cold as a rock. They raised their swords firmly, and blood splattered between the light and shadow of their weapons. Corpses fell in pools of blood with residual fear on their faces.
Military orders are as heavy as mountains.
No one in Xiaocheng is left alive!
Then, not even a dog or a chicken will be left!
Suddenly, a bloody hell on earth began.
"Youli, the road ahead is still long..." Looking at the exhausted and unconscious Shen Xiaolangjun who had killed all the way, Qishan's eyes turned into a rare tenderness and complexity, "It will be more difficult than it is now..."
But he will always be there.
When he loosened his fist, he found that his palm had been scratched and bleeding, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
At this moment, he wished he could block his sight and hearing, never wanting to see those images again, never wanting to hear the sounds of those struggling in the bloody hell on earth again. He endured it again and again, but finally couldn't bear it anymore.
His throat tightened and he spat out a mouthful of turbid, scarlet blood.
