Chapter 720: Shield Strike

As soon as the fight in the Colosseum began, the pirates came out on top, knocking the robbers back several steps, and won in momentum, but the audience at the scene was all in favor of the robbers, at least, the voices that shouted were in support of the robbers.

However, the pirate is a native of Xitianzhu and can't understand the language of the Tang Dynasty at all, so he doesn't know what the onlookers are shouting, maybe he thinks that the onlookers are cheering him on? Therefore, the shouting of the people around will not have the slightest effect on the pirates.

The robbers are ordinary people from Nantianzhu, and they have no culture, and they also can't understand the language of the Tang Dynasty, and the onlookers are shouting, which has no effect on him.

The shouting of the onlookers did not have the slightest effect on the two gladiators involved in the duel, they had already made up their minds that they must kill each other so that they could survive, especially the robber, as long as he could kill the pirate, he could regain his freedom, this temptation was irresistible to him, and there was no reason for the pirate not to do his best to survive.

Both sides are trying their best to fight, this kind of duel is the most interesting, it will be more exciting, and people can't stop watching it.

The pirate took advantage of the blow and his self-confidence was greatly increased, he would not give the robber a chance to breathe, so he immediately raised the long sword in his hand and quickly killed him, his purpose was very clear, that is, to kill the opponent in front of him in one go.

The robber fell behind as soon as he made a move, and he paid more attention to the pirate in his heart, and did not dare to have the slightest contempt for the opponent in front of him.

"What is retreating, why has it been on the back foot, what are you doing?"

"Come on, Datang warriors, you can't lose to this."

"People are tall and big, but they fight! Why backtrack? ”

Several Datang businessmen, seeing the gladiator wearing the Datang Mingguang armor, were not only stabbed with a sword as soon as they made a move, but also retreated continuously, and they were immediately anxious, eager to take action in person and kill the gladiator on the opposite side.

"The main thing is that people didn't choose well, it's too bad, just this guts, it's not as good as our fat people?"

A businessman blurted out.

The fat merchant glanced at his companion and said angrily: "Brother, don't fool me, this time, no matter what you say, I will definitely not jump down again, my three mothers-in-law and eight children, and my seventy-year-old mother, all need me to take care of them, if something happens to me, who will feed them!" ”

"Haha! Fatty, don't get me wrong, we don't mean that, we just talk about things, haha! ”

"Don't say it, maybe this is a strategic retreat of the Tang Warriors, in order to paralyze the opponent, and then, see the opportunity to win with one blow."

"Yes, yes, it's just the beginning of the game, and it's still too early for it to end? Who will kill the deer? We don't have to rush too much. ”

Several businessmen continued the discussion.

Li An's martial arts are strong, and he can naturally see the level of the two gladiators at a glance, I have to say that the strength of pirates is indeed stronger than that of robbers, of course, this refers to the professional aspect, not an all-round comparison, pirates should have undergone a certain degree of professional training, there are so many times, and the robbers have no road at all, they are fighting with their own brute strength, and every move and style seems quite casual, obviously they have no professional training, that is, they often fight with people, and they have found out a set of fighting experience in actual combat.

The fighting experience that you have figured out by yourself can also be called self-created martial arts, however, unless it is the self-created martial arts that those martial arts geniuses have figured out are the most powerful, most of the martial arts created by ordinary people are scratching blindly, and they are not of much use.

At this moment, the two gladiators fought together, and the pirate's training advantage was quickly reflected, and the robber was not professionally trained, but only fought with the people in the village, so he was obviously at a disadvantage as soon as he came into contact, but fortunately they were all equipped with sophisticated armor, which increased his fault tolerance, and a mistake would not cause too serious consequences, and he could even make a few more mistakes, if there was no protection of the armor, a mistake just now would be enough to kill him.

"Whoever makes it out of the Colosseum alive depends on their creation."

Li An said lightly.

"Li Shilang, it seems that the robber wearing the Datang armor seems to be at a disadvantage! Knowing this, they should have changed their armor, in case this robber lost, wouldn't it mean that Datang lost. ”

One of the subordinates spoke.

"The subordinates feel that the people who participate in the duel should not be allowed to wear Datang armor, or both of them wear Datang armor, otherwise, there will always be people who are unhappy, the gladiators wearing Datang armor lose, the Datang merchants will be unhappy, if they win, the merchants of the Dashi Country will be unhappy, in short, there will always be people who are unhappy."

Another civil servant said.

"What are you afraid of, you only say that some people will be unhappy, but you should know that some people will be very happy, some people are unhappy, and the other part is very happy, isn't it good?"

A military general said.

"My subordinates think that the next time they duel, they should be optimistic, see who is stronger, and let whoever wear Datang's armor, so that Datang warriors can win every time."

A civil official said.

"This is still not good, after a few times at most, everyone will understand, as long as the Datang warriors appear, they will win, if the duel can already guess the ending, it will be meaningless, the excitement will be greatly reduced, after a few times, no one wants to watch the duel performance."

Another civil official said.

When Li An heard this, he said: "Okay, don't fight, the next time you duel, choose the armor of the countries, and don't use the armor of the Tang Dynasty, so that the audience will not be biased towards one side, and the performance will be more exciting." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it."

The official in charge of the Colosseum spoke.

The duel in the Colosseum continued, and after a series of retreats, the Datang warriors finally stabilized their footing and prepared to launch a counterattack.

I saw the Tang warrior raise the long sword in his hand high and slash at the pirates who were chasing after him.

The pirate was not stupid, and immediately dodged and swung his sword to fight back.

The Tang warrior immediately waved the big shield in his hand, the long sword that the pirate cleaved over, but this time, it was not a passive hard carry, but he used all his strength to attack the long sword cut by the pirate, which looked like it was specifically attacking the long sword

The shield is strong enough to fully resist the damage of the long sword, so the Datang warriors have no scruples about hitting the long sword with their shields, wanting to give full play to the advantages of their physical strength and stature to drag down their opponents step by step.

The pirate's slashing sword slammed into the shield swung on the opposite side, producing a huge impact force, which made the pirate's arm slightly numb, and even, there was some pain.

The pain dulls people's reactions, and the pirate must slow down, so he immediately wields his shield to protect his body from his opponents.

However, the Tang warrior did not attack with his long sword, he continued to wave his shield and slammed into the pirate's shield, knocking the pirate back several steps.

Under the premise that both sides have heavy armor protection, the attack power of the long sword can no longer be reflected, but it is not as great as the damage caused by the shield of the shield, so the Datang warriors are more willing to use the shield strike, and continue to attack the pirates in this way, so that the pirates can consume their physical strength step by step, and after the final physical strength is exhausted, he can get the final victory.

Wearing armor all over the body, it is already very heavy, and raising weapons and armor to attack each other will consume more physical strength, so after fighting for a while, both sides are tired and a little out of breath.

The shield and long sword in his hand are also a little inflexible, at this time, the Datang warrior obviously occupies a certain advantage, although his identity is a robber from Nantianzhu, but at this moment, he is wearing the Mingguang armor of the Tang Dynasty, then he is a proper Datang warrior, he has an advantage, and the onlookers of the Datang businessmen are of course very happy.

"See! The Datang Warriors are different, although the start was unfavorable, they had an advantage when they played. ”

"That's right, in this world, the Tang Empire is the most powerful, no small country can be compared with the Tang Empire, and there is no reason for the Tang warriors to lose."

"Come on, Datang warriors, kill the one opposite."

"I bet the Tang Warriors will win."

"Don't bet, there is no reason for the Datang Warriors to lose, they will definitely win."

A group of Datang businessmen became excited.

"Looks like our previous speculation wasn't accurate enough! Although pirates are more professional and have received a certain amount of training, they are at a disadvantage in terms of physical strength and stature, and they are still strong in physical strength and tall in stature! ”

A Tang military general said.

"Yes! We were really worried in vain just now, this robber will definitely win, I'm optimistic about him, haha! ”

The civil official next to him said with a smile.

Li An also nodded with satisfaction, he originally hoped that the robber would win, so when choosing the armor, let the robber wear the armor of the Tang Dynasty, and let the pirate wear the armor of the Great Food Country.

At the beginning of the fight, because of the lack of experience of the robbers, the pirates had an advantage, and Li An was also worried, in case the pirates really won, the face of the Tang Empire would be more or less affected, but the robbers really did not disappoint him, and quickly reversed the disadvantage and gave the Tang Dynasty a long face.

Li An will also fulfill his promise, as long as the robbers representing Datang can kill the pirates, then Li An will give him freedom as promised and let him leave Anzhu City.

The duel between the two sides continued, because the robbers used their shields to continuously shield the pirates, so that the pirates' physical strength was extremely exhausted, and they could only keep retreating, already tired and out of breath.

However, the pirate will not give up his life, he is doing the last dying struggle, due to the lack of physical strength and stature, the pirate naturally cannot collide with the robber's frontal shield, but if he wields a long sword, he will also be blocked by the robber's big shield, and his arms will be numb.

The robber kept waving his shield as if he could never run out of strength, and whenever the pirate dared to raise his weapon to fight back, he would use the shield to block violently, and each time there was room to prevent the pirate from cheating, first use feints to confuse and sneak attack when he was not looking.

Because the area of the shield is relatively large, so, the effect of blocking and swinging is very good, even better than the long sword is much better, after playing for a while, the robber's physical strength is too much, and it seems a little difficult to wield the big shield with one hand, he simply threw away the long sword in his hand, held the big shield with both hands, used the big shield as a weapon, and kept attacking the pirates, forcing the pirates to retreat, and there was no power to fight back.

"Okay, Datang will win, Datang will win."

After a series of attacks by the robbers on the pirates, the crowd cheered enthusiastically again.

"Datang Warrior work harder and kill him."

"The weak chicken of the Great Food Country is about to die, so kill him in one go."

"Keep attacking, don't give him a respite, you must not give him a respite."

"Datang Warrior, victory is just around the corner."

Soon, there were more onlookers shouting and being quite emotional.

The pirate's current condition is very bad, it can be said that it is extremely bad, and in the continuous retreat, he has lost the ability to fight back, and he looks extremely embarrassed.

However, the pirate did not want to give up his life, so he tried to dodge backwards, and even threw away the big shield in his left hand, and turned around with his long sword and ran.

Seeing that the pirates were fleeing, the robbers held large shields and pursued them desperately, not giving the other party any time to breathe.

Well-made armor has many benefits, such as amazing defense, which can be a good defense against sword slashing and protect the safety of the wearer, but it also has fatal shortcomings, that is, it is very heavy, really very bulky, if it is a little girl with poor physique, it is estimated that after wearing the armor, she can't stand up, and she will lie down directly.

The bodies of the two gladiators were still relatively strong, so even if they were fully dressed, they could still fight in the Colosseum for so long.

But no matter how strong a person is, his physical strength is limited, and after a fight and chase, the physical strength of both of them has been consumed a lot, and they are both a little out of breath.

Especially the robber holding the big shield, the physical exertion is greater, and after chasing a few laps, he is tired and can't chase, and the pirate sees that the other party can't chase, so he also stops to breathe, so that he can recover a little.

If two people chase like this and don't fight, then the colosseum match will not be exciting, so, after seeing this scene, the official in charge of the Colosseum immediately warned the two gladiators to hurry up and start fighting, if they don't fight again, after the time is exceeded, both of them will be punished.
