Bai Feng, who deliberately hid his strength, could only use the strength equivalent to an intermediate sword master in order to avoid revealing his true strength, but the spiritual power realm of the great sword master level was enough for him to clearly perceive the true strength of the other bandit.
These fourteen bandits dressed in tatters not only possessed standard weapons and sturdy war horses, but also had the combat power of intermediate swordsmen; on the other hand, on the side of Bai Feng and the others, only Bai Feng, Li Jiancheng, Long Zhan, Sun Ce, and Peter were intermediate swordsmen.
Long Xin and Sun Shangxiang were both junior swordsmen-level martial artists, and their strength was simply not enough to resist powerful bandits, if it weren't for the fact that these robbers didn't have the heart to hurt people at all, it would be difficult for Bai Feng and the others who were besieged to protect them.
"Dragonheart, Shangxiang. Looking at the predicament he was in, as well as the escort team that had been arriving for a long time, Bai Feng, who felt something, shouted to Long Xin and Sun Shangxiang in the distance after swinging his knife to force back a robber: "I will cover you, you quickly retreat to the back!"
"Don't, I'm going to fight with you!" Sun Shangxiang, who was so pressed by a robber that he couldn't raise his head, still stubbornly rejected Bai Feng's proposal at this time, and Long Xin on the side didn't speak, just waved the long sword in his hand harder.
Sun Ce, who fought desperately, never persuaded his sister to withdraw, because he knew his sister and knew that no matter what he said, she would not leave, so he didn't mention it at all, but devoted himself to the battle.
The seemingly fierce battle lasted for more than ten minutes, and Sun Ce, Li Jiancheng and the others, who had tried their best, were already about to exhaust the spiritual power in the dantian, and the guards in the rear still did not arrive;
In order to prevent Sun Ce and Li Jiancheng from being captured by consuming their spiritual power, Bai Feng, who was gradually releasing his spiritual power, had already shown the combat power that only a high-level swordsman had, and Miaofa Mumasa, who was wrapped in golden spiritual power, successfully suppressed the four robbers who joined forces to attack Bai Feng.
"Knock knock...... "Just as Bai Feng was about to kill these four robbers in one fell swoop, there was the sound of war drums representing the army's imminent attack, and with the sound of war drums, the robbers who had originally dominated chose to retreat immediately.......
Panting, Sun Ce just wanted to sit down and rest for a while, but was grabbed by Bai Feng beside him, he looked at Bai Feng with a solemn face in confusion, and wondered: "The imperial army has arrived, isn't our battle over yet?"
"Do you think it must be the imperial army that is coming?" Compared with Sun Ce's bravery, Li Jiancheng, who is both wise and brave, is much more outstanding; seeing that Sun Ce's face is still full of puzzlement, he explained extremely patiently:
"Those robbers just now are definitely not ordinary bandits, their strength, weapons, and war horses are all revealing their identities, if nothing else, they themselves should be in the army, this is a deliberate conspiracy against us. ”
Sun Ce was not a dull person, but he was not as quick as Bai Feng and Li Jiancheng, and when he heard Li Jiancheng's explanation, he instantly sorted out the order of this matter, and then his face became ugly.
The war drums in front were still beating, and Bai Feng and the others, who had retreated together, had just wanted to return the same way, when the escort team in the rear finally arrived, and the mixed escort team composed of more than 200 guards before was less than 100 people left at this time.
Even among the guards of less than 100 people, there are still forty-eight Germanic berserkers under Bai Feng's command, looking at the guards covered in blood, they no longer understand their own situation, Bai Feng and the others can be regarded as living in vain for so many years.
"Brothers, since the other party doesn't want us to leave here, then let's have a good time with them!" The dilemma of no way out aroused the pride in Bai Feng's chest, and he laughed and asked Li Jiancheng and the others beside him: "Brothers, are you willing to fight with me?"
"Haha, people die and birds rise to the sky, and they will not die for thousands of years!" The battlefield slogan of the southern warriors was shouted out by the young men present; entering the family army at the age of sixteen to serve is not only the custom of the Bai family, but also the practice of the five major families in the southern border!
"Okay!Yue'er, Binglan, you two are responsible for taking the injured guards to protect Aoxue, Xiuning, and Shangxiang, and the other brothers and Germanic berserkers will follow me in front of you and prepare to meet the enemy!" Bai Feng, who received an affirmative answer, immediately deployed to the people present.
At the moment of crisis, Bai Feng's calm and stability and involuntarily revealed the momentum of the superior, so that Sun Ce, Li Jiancheng and others naturally obeyed Bai Feng's arrangement, and even Li Shimin and Sun Quan, who had not made a move before, followed behind Bai Feng.
Long Aoxue, Li Xiuning, and Sun Shangxiang, the weakest of them, were protected by Yue'er and Binglan behind Bai Feng and the others, and the wounded guards dutifully surrounded the girls in a circle, and as the most loyal warriors in the south, they were ready to sacrifice.
The Germanic berserkers who took out the battle axes from the spatial ring did not hide the strength of their high-level great swordsmen anymore, and they exuded a fierce aura all over their bodies, which made everyone except Bai Feng show a look of shock.
Ignoring everyone's reactions, Bai Feng divided the forty-eight Germanic berserkers into two parts, and the fourteen Germanic berserkers were drawn out by Bai Feng, and each of them was responsible for protecting one member of the other family, while the remaining thirty-four followed behind Bai Feng.
The centurion of the Germanic berserkers stood side by side with Bai Feng at the forefront, followed by three columns of Germanic berserkers holding battle axes, while Li Jiancheng and Sun Ce were deployed behind the third column of Germanic berserkers to serve as the last force to meet the enemy.
Although Bai Feng ostensibly wanted to live and die with these noble children, it was impossible for him to really put the core members of the other four major families in the southern realm in danger, especially Sun Ce, Peter, and Li Jiancheng among these people, who were the heirs of their respective families.
Once they make any mistakes, the Southern Border Alliance, which is extremely beneficial to the Bai family, is very likely to be dissolved, who let Bai Feng have 100% certainty to ensure that he will be fine, and he has no choice but to include the latter people in the scope of protection.
No matter who the enemy who surrounded him and the others this time, Bai Feng was completely sure that Yue'er and Bing Lan would take him out of danger;
At this moment, Bai Feng's most hopeful thing is that the opponent's strength is not too strong, and it is best to be directly repelled by the Germanic berserkers, so that the strength of Yue'er and Binglan can not be exposed, and the crisis can be resolved, which is the best result for everyone.
After waiting for four or five minutes, about five hundred warriors in blue armor appeared in front of Bai Feng's eyes, these soldiers who were advancing with the beat of the drum looked like well-trained elites in the army, even stronger than the dozen or so bandits who had just retreated.
"Prepare for war!" With Bai Feng's roar, the Germanic berserkers tore off their upper clothes one after another, exposing their strong muscles;
After the frantic shouting lasted for half a minute, the blue-armored enemy army in front of him also approached a position only two hundred meters away from him; looking at the faces of the enemy soldiers visible to the naked eye, Bai Feng decisively gave the order to charge all of them, and launched a charge in the first place!
