Tome of Troubled Times

Chapter 377: The mountains and rivers are filled with blood

Views:

The Maitreya army was at the gate of the city, so densely packed that it was impossible to see the end of them.

At this moment, Lu Shiheng on the city wall still had a lot of admiration for Maitreya.

Because on the surface he was already under control, everyone had already teamed up to ambush Tang Wanzhuang in the city... In theory, there was no need to fight in Xiangyang, but Maitreya still made sufficient preparations. While everyone was on the surface in a group and he had not done any reconnaissance, he didn't know when the army had arrived so close and ambushed outside, ready to launch a thundering attack at any time.

No matter whether Lu Shiheng was controlled or not, no matter how many people from the Wang and Yang families came, the sudden attack by this large army basically meant that Xiangyang had changed hands.

Moreover, Maitreya had arranged in Han River, contacted the Blood God Cult in advance, and blocked the northerners. When Lu Shiheng received the news of the collapse of his own water fort, he felt that Maitreya had crushed Wang Daozhong to the ground.

You thought that Maitreya was being used as a pawn by you, and you wanted to use him to kill Tang Wanzhuang... Maitreya really wanted to capture Tang Wanzhuang, so he was willing to be the knife, and he used this relationship to advance quietly without being noticed. It's hard to say who is using whom... At least Maitreya has always known it in his heart, but do you know it in your own way

Lu Shiheng was thinking, just symbolically guard for a while and wait and see what happens when the Yang family crosses the river to the south. If they are really blocked by the Blood God Cult and can't get through, then they can open the door to welcome them and truly surrender to Maitreya. Anyway, it's not that I don't want to guard, it's that I can't...

This is really unstoppable.

In a battle between thousands of troops, a fierce general may not play a decisive role. But when the enemy already has superior forces, and in a siege, a fierce general can play a huge role.

The so-called "first to climb" means to gain a foothold on the city wall, so that the subsequent soldiers can climb up one after another, and the defense of the city wall will collapse.

Maitreya is the most powerful general among all the generals. There are few in the world who are more powerful than him.

When Maitreya jumped onto the city wall like a mountain of meat, Lu Shiheng felt that he could "fight and retreat" and "retreat to the city wall", and then Maitreya would cut open the noose of the city gate with one knife, and that would be the end of it. Anyway, the Yang family's troops could not get through.

Maitreya could also see what he was thinking, so he naturally would not kill him. Just as he was about to head for the city gate, a clear voice suddenly rang out from midair: "The Maitreya Buddha is indeed mighty and powerful."

Maitreya frowned and looked up, a sword light rushed under the moon and reached his face in an instant.

Lianshan Sword, Hongnong Yang!

They crossed the river so quickly? What was Xue Canghai doing? He blocked the enemy halfway across the river. In such a favorable situation, he couldn't stop them for even a moment

What made Maitreya even more speechless was that another sword light was rushing towards him from behind Yang Jingxiu.

The Sea-Dividing Sword, the King of Langya.

In an instant, it was him, Maitreya, who climbed up the city wall and was being beaten up by two people from the Earth Rankings. There was also Tang Wanzhuang, who was hiding somewhere and didn't know whether he could take action or not!

Maitreya wielded his sword, fighting two enemies alone, with an extremely ugly expression: "Does the Yang family really want to participate in the competition? Or have they become the running dogs of the Wang family?"

Yang Jingxiu smiled slightly and didn't bother to answer.

The real noble families actually look down on Maitreya when talking to him, even if the other party ranks higher than him... They are called common people.

Yang Jingxiu is ranked tenth on the Earth List. Although he is ranked a few places lower than Maitreya, it does not mean that there is a big gap. Everyone is actually on the same level. It will take a fierce fight to determine the winner. Maybe he will lose in the end. Maybe the Chaos List will change

Coupled with the attack from Wang Daozhong, Maitreya's climb to the city this time is destined to be of no use.

Lu Shiheng next to him was even more dumbfounded. This was not only a question of whether Maitreya could play a role. In front of Yang Jingxiu, he dared not slack off or turn against him. He had to act loyal to the country and defend with all his might, otherwise he would not be able to explain himself!

The hell did this Blood God Cult stop us? How did they do it

The Yang family is here, but what about the Blood God Cult? Was it destroyed

Just as he was thinking this, shouts of killing arose from the flank of the Maitreya army below.

Nearly ten thousand ferocious Blood God followers, wearing uniform blood-red clothes, looked like a sea of blood from afar under the moonlight, rushing here and attacking the right wing of the Maitreya Army.

At the same time, there were also shouts of killing from another direction. Qianlong No. 7 and Hongnong Yang Bugui led the Yang family's private soldiers who had just landed and attacked the left wing of the Maitreya Army.

It was like the Maitreya Army had fallen into a pocket.

Lu Shiheng couldn't figure it out. How could Maitreya's plan, which was clearly a very complete one, turn out to be like a trap for himself? How did it turn out like this

His gaze fell in front of the Blood God Cult members.

The one who rushed to the front was not Xue Canghai, the leader of the Blood God Cult, but another young man wielding a broadsword. With the broadsword, he cut heads and waists off, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, unstoppable and courageous.

The previous blood on his clothes hadn't dried yet, and with the new blood, his clothes were stained like a bloody man in an instant. This is his style... the so-called bloodthirsty Shura.

Zhao Changhe!

Is this situation because he became like this

People said that Zhao Changhe changed the situation of the Yanmen battle single-handedly. Lu Shiheng didn't believe it at first. How could one person decide anything

But at this moment, he had to believe that no matter the ambush and murder of Tang Wanzhuang in the city before, or the inexplicable change in the war situation at this moment, it was definitely related to this person.

With one's own strength, he can stir up the world; where the long sword is raised, there will be wind and cloud!

… …

Unlike the Battle of Yanmen, even if they were surrounded from both sides this time, they could not immediately achieve the same result as at that time when the Hu people's chrysanthemums exploded and caused chaos in Timur's army.

Because at that time Timur and Huangfu Yongxian had been in a stalemate for a long time, and both sides were at the point of breaking through the last straw. Once the rear was attacked and Huangfu Yongxian made a prompt decision to go out of the city to attack from both sides, it would be easy for them to collapse.

This time, Yu Cixiu had not put any effort into attacking the city. It could be said that the army formation had just been deployed not long ago, and there was still time to make adjustments.

After all, he had a large number of soldiers, tens of thousands of them.

The Blood God Cult had only over 10,000 people, and they had to leave people to guard the village, so the actual number of people was only 7,000 to 8,000. On the other hand, the Yang family's private soldiers totaled less than 5,000.

There are 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers in Xiangyang City, but will they have the cooperation that Huangfu Yongxian had in the past? If they don't leave the city, the two incoming forces will hit a wall.

Of course, these two groups are not vegetarians either, each of them is extremely elite. Especially the Blood God Cult, they are a bunch of mad dogs, killing people is a way for them to practice martial arts, and when they encounter such a huge army, not only are they not panicked, but they are all howling and excited, rushing to kill the enemy, no matter how high the reward for heads is, they can't reward such a crazy army.

What's more, Zhao Changhe and Xue Canghai beside him are even more outrageous.

On this kind of battlefield, their strength seemed to double, and the murderous aura surrounded these two people like a substance. From a distance, it looked like bloody flames were burning on their bodies, and everything had turned into smoke.

Moreover, the elite soldiers who had been trained with great difficulty seemed like rookies who had never fought a war. They were okay fighting with others, but once they came into contact with these two people, they immediately became frightened and fled in panic.

This kind of bloody and fearful people are born to be on the battlefield... The right wing can't stop this group of mad dogs at all. They are almost crushed after just one confrontation.

Yu Cixiu looked coldly in the direction of Zhao Changhe... Was he going to break through all the way and go straight to his flag

Zhao Changhe did intend to break through the enemy's formation and attack the main general.

Otherwise, with the number of people here, if the fight really goes on, not to mention the outcome, the Blood God Sect will suffer too many casualties, which I would not be willing to bear.

I've tested Yu Cixiu's fighting ability before... He is very strong, and he can beat him in a one-on-one fight, but at this moment, I have a way to kill him.

With Master Xue at his side and the Blood God followers behind him, he was surrounded by thousands of enemies, but he felt very comfortable. He only needed to cut the front...

This is the biggest difference between military battles and fighting in the martial arts world.

"Swish!" The dragon bird swept wildly, and all the Maitreya followers around were cut into two parts with their swords and heads.

Who would dare to stop this evil star? He looks like he is not a human being, but a Shura that crawled out of a sea of blood. His eyes are damn red. Do normal people have eyes like this

The Maitreya army formation was in chaos. If one looked down from the sky, one would find that the Maitreya army in this area was like water splitting and waves breaking, spreading out like ripples on the left and right. The Blood God Cult soldiers and horses, led by Zhao Changhe, penetrated into the army formation like a sharp knife, and went straight for the central commander's flag!

The good news was that Yu Ci Xiu could not sit still anymore and came to this direction to fight Zhao Changhe himself. In his opinion, as long as they could defeat Zhao Changhe, this group of Blood God Cult members would immediately fall into a quagmire.

"There won't be another Tang Wanzhuang to help you take the challenge this time!" The mourning stick flew over the army formation, flew into the air, and headed straight for Zhao Changhe's face.

With a "swish" sound, a sharp blade suddenly popped out from the tip of the mourning stick.

This is what Yu Cixiu used in the battle, and it instantly turned from a stick into a gun!

Zhao Changhe chopped down a Maitreya believer beside him with a knife, and turned around to see a sharp blade flashing with cold light approaching.

He suddenly grinned: "I didn't expect you to be unable to hold back and run to the right wing. It saved me a lot of effort."

As he was speaking, Long Que had already retaliated and hit the gun right on the tip.

They all think that killing the other person will solve the problem...then it all depends on how good your own skills are.

"Dang!" With a loud bang, swords and spears clashed, and Zhao Changhe's unstoppable momentum finally stopped. The Maitreya army, which was showing signs of collapse in front, surrounded them again, and the Blood God Cult's steps were stuck in a quagmire.

For a moment, Zhao Changhe felt like he had changed roles, just like when he faced the vulture Fang.

At that time, it was him who stopped Vulture Fang and trapped him in the quagmire of thousands of troops, and this time Yu Cixiu had to do the same thing, stop his own momentum and fall into the quagmire.

However…

Zhao Changhe's eyes became redder and redder. Originally only his eyeballs were red, but now even his pupils were red.

The arm became visibly thicker, as big as a human head.

There is no me in the world!

Looking down from the mind, one can almost feel the bloody murderous aura that permeates the entire battlefield. Even a timid person would be frightened to death here without doing anything.

Evil spirit is powerful.

They gather here, condense into substance, invade the mind and wash over the body.

His sword resonated with theirs. When he swung it, blood gushed out and everyone cried.

"Swoosh!" Yu Xiu fired another shot.

Zhao Changhe could feel that his shot was actually very suitable for the battlefield. It was the wronged soul that was seeking his life, howling and wailing in his heart. A biting chill was rising from his mind, as if even his soul was being frozen, torn apart, and then dissipated and pulled away.

The life-seeking and soul-chasing gun.

This is the strongest attack of the master of magic, who is ranked 44th on the human list!

Zhao Changhe closed his eyes and slashed with the knife.

"Boom!" It seemed as if one could hear the sound of blood surging around, the sea of blood surging, and the volcano erupting.

Countless bloody and murderous auras were roaring wildly within a ten-foot radius around him. All the murderous auras were condensed like blades and burst out simultaneously from top to bottom around Xiu.

Swords and guns clashed again, and the entire battlefield seemed to have come to a standstill. Everyone around looked at the scene in shock.

The sword and the spear were clearly blocked, but there was still a chilling aura coming out from the tip of the spear, piercing into Zhao Changhe's shoulder, causing blood to flow.

At this point, Yu Xiu looked like he had been tortured to death. His entire body was covered in wounds, and countless wounds were gushing out blood. I wonder how many times he had been stabbed...

That's not how many knives...

The evil energy outside is like a knife, and the blood inside boils.

Just one knife, and the mountains and rivers are filled with blood!

Yu Cixiu stared at Zhao Changhe with wide eyes. He could never have imagined that he, who was ranked 44th on the Human List, felt that he was evenly matched with Zhao Changhe when they fought on the roof before, but when the battlefield changed, he couldn't even take his second blow.

What rebellion, what money and beauty.

All stops here.
