Chapter 85: Facing the Enemy
Seeing Tang Yinhong approaching the city wall step by step, Rui Peng didn't hear about the rumors that he had single-handedly attacked a warship with two guns, so he became even more jealous at this time.
Can't wait any longer, if he really misses the best opportunity to shoot from the city wall, and confront Tang Yinbrown head-on, I'm afraid that these soldiers in the city are not his opponents.
Ruipeng took a step forward, bowed slightly beside Zuo Qiyang, and shouted "Lord" in his mouth.
Zuo Qiyang narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the sound, but his eyes did not take his eyes off the figure under the city.
Why? Why is he the only one coming?
He painstakingly acted out such a scene of slaughtering the city to show them, and he recognized his infamy through the ages, just to attract the attention of everyone in Tang Yin's team, in exchange for all of them taking the initiative to cast into the net they had laid.
But now, why is only Tang Yinbrown coming alone?
Could it really be that I miscalculated again?
Zuo Qiyang asked himself in his heart, looking at Tang Yin's brown expression, he was a little more depressed and unwilling.
In a flash, Rui Peng had already stepped forward and shouted, "All crossbowmen ready-"
"Wait a minute!"
Zuo Qiyang finally spoke, but what he gave was an order to stop the shooting of Tang Yinhong.
Ruipeng blocked his chest in one breath, didn't care about his status, and turned directly to Zuo Qiyang and shouted: "My lord, it's too late to wait!" Are you going to let this man into town? ”
Even if you let him in, why not?
Zuo Qiyang thought in his heart, but did not speak.
What he wanted was not Tang Yinbrown's life at all.
"Give the order to go down and open the gates."
Halfway through Zuo Qiyang's words, Rui Peng raised his head suddenly, almost burst into tears, and said tremblingly: "This Dragon Claw City is a small city, and there is no moat outside the city wall as a cover. ”
At this time, Zuo Qiyang finally stopped looking in a trance, and raised his foot towards Ruipeng, who was standing in front of him.
Ruipeng didn't expect Zuo Qiyang to suddenly change his appearance, he didn't have time to hide, and ate him head-on, only to feel a pain in his shoulders and a weakness in his feet, so he knelt down.
"Grow the morale of others and destroy your own prestige? When did you learn to be so timid? Zuo Qiyang said, his face was extremely gloomy, "Then there is only one person outside the city, can you still let him take the city?" ”
After that, he shouted at the soldiers who were already stupid when they were standing aside and watching this scene: "What are you doing in a daze!" ”
A quick-witted soldier hurriedly answered "yes" and hurried down to deliver the word.
Outside the city, Tang Yinbrown, who was walking alone against the wind, had doubts in his heart.
He was only a few dozen steps away from the city gate, but he didn't wait for the formation of ten thousand arrows on the city wall, and the battle knives behind him began to click in the wind dissatisfiedly.
Zuo Qiyang, why did he soften his heart at this time?
But the current situation did not leave him much time to think about Zuo Qiyang's attitude - seeing that he was about to go to the city gate, the closed city gate at this time sat in front like a giant beast, quietly guarding the soldiers and civilians in the city, waiting for his arrival.
Maybe it will take some effort, Tang Yinbrown thought in his heart, and pulled out the standing knife from behind with his backhand - this is the knife that previously cut the mast under the lookout of the pirate ship, leaving the captain of the pirate ship with nowhere to escape.
As long as it's fast enough, there's no defense that can't be broken by this blade.
Tang Yinbrown thought about it, steadied a horse, narrowed his eyes, and aimed the knife at the gap between the two city gates, planning how to do it in his heart.
With a creak, the gates opened in the middle.
Tang Yinbrown straightened up, even more confused by the situation in front of him.
What the hell is Zuo Qiyang doing? Could it be that he didn't intend to intercept himself from the beginning?
Just as he was thinking, he heard a roar behind the city gate, followed by a series of horses' hooves mixed with the crisp sound of blades.
Two rows of cavalrymen in battle armor rushed out brandishing their swords.
This is the posture that should be used to meet the enemy.
Tang Yinbrown thought about it, and there was a faint sense of relief and excitement in his heart - after all, Zuo Qiyang didn't underestimate himself.
The distance from the city gate to Tang Yinbrown's body was not far, and the galloping horse at full speed only needed a few breaths to pounce on Tang Yinbrown's approach.
The horse's hooves kicked up a cloud of dust, which almost completely obscured the cavalry behind, but it accentuated the cold air of the oxtail blades in the hands of the two who were in the head.
At this moment, the two horses walked side by side, and the two heavily armed soldiers on the horse held the hilt of the sword tightly, one on the left and the other on the right, and the blades met in the middle, like a grinding knife approaching at full speed.
Tang Yinbrown stood in place, motionless like a monument.
Those two blades were aimed at his throat.
In the blink of an eye, he would be in a different place.
The galloping horses approached, bringing a gust of wind and kicking up a cloud of dust.
When the horse's front hooves were shoulder to shoulder with Tang Yin's brown, he raised his half-human-high battle body knife horizontally, held the back of the knife tightly with both hands, and his feet were firmly rooted in the dust, with a trace of fear on his face.
The blade met the front of the horse's body, and the iron pierced into the horse's muscles and bones, splashing crimson blood in all directions.
The two horses neighed and fell forward in unison.
The two soldiers on the horse were flipped over at the same time and flew out.
The two columns of cavalry that followed closely behind tightened the reins in time, and although they did not collide with the two people in front of them, they had already thrown out of formation.
It was not until this moment that the cavalry following behind understood Zuo Qiyang and Ruipeng's concerns, and they also truly saw the heroic appearance of the legendary Tang Shaoxia, who broke a boat alone with one knife and one sword.
If it were someone else, under the attack just now, even if it wasn't a head split, it would definitely be swept under the horse's hooves. What kind of astonishing strength and courage do you need to overthrow two galloping knights with the power of one man?
A few young soldiers who lacked concentration even showed reverence, so they just dismounted and knelt down in front of Tang Yinbrown.
At this moment, a shout came from behind him, breaking the strange stalemate.
Tang Yin's brown followed the prestige, and saw that one of the two people who had just been overturned and rolled to the ground had jumped up at this time, looked at him angrily, and rushed over with a knife.
This person Tang Yinbrown recognized.
Before when he was in Xiyou, he was already a powerful general under Zuo Qiyang, named Wei Yabiao, with extraordinary courage and hot-blooded square strength, strong body, amazing strength in his hands, but he was too upright and never reckless about the consequences.
If you can experience more, you may be a rare talent.
Wei Yabiao naturally didn't know that Tang Yinbrown still had the leisure to analyze his own ability in the face of his second round of all-out attack, he was already like a wolf now, and he was full of only thinking about avenging his beloved horse and making this person pay for his blood debt.
