Chapter 378: Guarding the Camp Gate (Part II)
Robbing the camp is Lei Youde's forte, although this team of demon thieves who attacked the camp was a ghost idea of mixing next to King De and beheading, but they also knew that whether they could get to the edge of the big tent depended on luck, and if they were unlucky, they could cheat the door open.
Now the official army intercepted the demon thief at the gate of the camp and it was not unexpected by the demon thief, but if the demon thief wants to achieve greater results, he must hold on until the reinforcements from behind arrive.
After Lan Ziyi led the team from the south, the last remaining demon thieves threw themselves into the bloody battle with the official army. The number of demon thieves who mixed in was not as good as that of the official army, and this was the first time that they did not have an advantage in numbers when fighting against the official army. The bravery of the thieves could not stop their casualties, and the thieves fell one after another, and the thieves standing in the back row soon joined the officers and soldiers.
These demon thieves tried their best to resist the attack of the official army, their attention was all on the official army killed in front of them, and the sudden shouts from behind did not arouse the attention of the demon thieves at first, but as the voice behind them continued, the more the demon thieves who could still distinguish their senses the more they listened, the more wrong they became, the sound that the person made before dying showed that there was a life-and-death battle behind the demon thieves, but the official army was obviously blocked by the last demon thief.
Finally, a demon thief looked back, but saw Lan Ziyi, who was covered in mud and blood, standing up from the ground.
Lan Ziyi had just killed a thief, at this time he was in a trance, his limbs were sore, he was no longer aware of his existence before he stood up, and finally condensed a little spirit, Lan Ziyi could only mobilize part of his strength to get up from the ground, he moved hard, his foundation was unstable, and he was shaky when he got up, and it looked like a gust of wind could blow him down.
Seeing someone standing up behind him suddenly, those demon thieves were so frightened that their heartbeats almost stopped, if it weren't for the officials and soldiers rushing to kill, the demon thieves would be almost unable to stand it, these guys must immediately turn around and cut Lan Ziyi who was standing on the ground into meat sauce.
One of the thieves, who seemed to be a leader, saw that he and the people beside him could not pull away, so he shouted to the door:
"What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you cut down this officer and army? ”
This roar immediately called out a few heads hiding behind the barricade of the camp gate. It turned out that when the thieves were desperately fighting, there were still a few people left behind them, and these people were hiding under the blind corner of the watchtower of the walled gate with torches, and wanted to set the gate on fire.
The actions of these guys were obviously arranged early, and after the thieves and officers in the front row just started to start, these thieves took out a bunch of things to set fire, what kind of oil, weeds, messy and even gunpowder. But these days of heavy rain helped the officers and soldiers, not only did most of the things prepared by the thieves be flooded, but also the wood used by the officials and soldiers to build the camp was soaked by the rain.
The wood was already wet when it was cut down, and after so many days of heavy rain, even if they went up and pinched it, they could squeeze water out of the wood, and the thieves tried so hard to set it on fire, and the smoke came out a lot, but the fire was not lit anywhere.
After being drunk, the fire-soaked thief poked his head out of the corner.
Because the blood stains and mud on Lan Ziyi's body covered up the dragon Kuo of his own body, at this time, in the eyes of the demon thieves, Lan Ziyi was a fierce and vicious, hateful monster, he did not have a long soldier in his hand but a short knife, the blade was still oozing blood, and the blood droplets fell and pulled into a line with the corpse lying under the blade.
How terrifying and terrifying this face looked, the frightened and frightened demon thieves suddenly confused their minds, and they couldn't tell whether it was a person or a ghost standing in front of them, and the only thing that could help them was the knife in their hands. So the demon thieves stepped forward, howled and rushed towards Lan Ziyi.
The demon thief was frightened, and Lan Ziyi's heart was even more bottomless. Lan Ziyi crawled out from the pile of corpses and from the feet of the people who were fighting next to him, stabbed the people in front of him to death, and finally escaped, but a group of thieves came in front of him. It's not that Lan Ziyi is greedy for life and afraid of death and wants to run for his life, he is not so cowardly. It's just that Lan Ziyi climbed all the way over to close the door, but he was stopped by someone when he finally came over, and no matter how you look at it, Lan Ziyi alone can't solve these demon thieves in front of him, but now he is going to die before he can get out of school.
The only good news is that the howl of the demon thief just now also woke Lan Ziyi up, and after a cold sweat, Lan Ziyi felt his heartbeat, and the double shadows shaking in his eyes merged into one, allowing his vision to be clear again.
The strength in Lan Ziyi's body has returned, but it doesn't seem to help, because Lan Ziyi is not a person who eats by strength.
Looking at the demon thief rushing in front of him, Lan Ziyi squeezed the knife in his hand tighter again, in his opinion, his luck ended here.
But the flying arrows that fell from the sky saved Lan Ziyi's life, looking at the rushing demon thieves lying on the ground one after another, Lan Ziyi was very surprised, he looked up, and found that it was the guard on the watchtower next to the door who was condescendingly shooting with a bow and arrow. Before, these thieves had been hiding in the dead corner under the door, and the soldiers on the sentry had no way to take them, but now that these people ran out of it, the soldiers on the sentry naturally would not let them go.
Lan Ziyi saw that the one who kept the arrows on the watchtower was actually a very young sergeant, the sergeant was skilled in bows and arrows, and the arrows continued, and the demon thieves who rushed to Lan Ziyi at the door were all shot to death before they rushed to Lan Ziyi.
Lan Ziyi saw that the danger in front of him was relieved, and hurriedly ran to the door, firstly, this was to avoid the threat of the demon thieves not far behind him, and secondly, Lan Ziyi wanted to close the camp gate.
Lan Ziyi, who was running, raised his head and waved to thank the sergeant on the watchtower, and the young sergeant also shouted with a smile like Lan Ziyi:
"Brother, when today's battle is over, you have to invite me to drink!"
Lan Ziyi listened to the sergeant on the guard tower calling him brother, and thought to himself, is there anyone in the army who doesn't know him Lan Ziyi? After thinking about it again, Lan Ziyi realized that when he crawled over just now, his face was covered with mud and others couldn't recognize him, and Lan Ziyi estimated that the demon thief didn't recognize who he was, otherwise he would have pounced on him and killed him regardless of the casualties just now.
Lan Ziyi, who wanted to understand, smiled and wanted to reply to the young sergeant, but Lan Ziyi, who looked up, saw a black dot flying in the sky from a distance. The black dot flew from outside the camp, and crossed an arc from far and near, the trajectory of the arc felt familiar to Lan Ziyi, and the end of the arc pointed to the sergeant who had just shot an arrow on the watchtower.
Lan Ziyi squinted his eyes to see what the black dot was, but saw that the dot above Feiling's head had turned into a line, and Lan Ziyi's mind suddenly flashed memories of fighting with the demon thief in the past, and they still had the same weapon for the demon thief.
Lan Ziyi hurriedly shouted to the sergeant:
"Get down! Be careful! “
But it was too late, and the sergeant didn't understand the meaning of Lan Ziyi's words, but he felt the sound of wind flying near his ears. The moment he turned his head to look, the sergeant was hit hard in the abdomen, and a reinforced heavy pikedar flew from outside the camp and hit the young sergeant in the lower abdomen.
Lan Ziyi felt pity and lowered his head to "sigh", but this time Lan Ziyi saw the army of demon thieves rushing outside the door through the open camp gate. Lan Ziyi was still wondering why he didn't see the demon thief reinforcements coming, but what did he think, the demon thief was about to come up and block the door now.
Fortunately, Lan Ziyi had already come to the door at this time, he looked around, and the demon thieves who rushed into the camp at this time were busy intercepting the official army, and the official army was still so breathless to tear through the defense line of the demon thief to kill, and there was no one by Lan Ziyi's side, no matter whether he was or foe. Now the only thing Lan Ziyi can rely on is himself, and the only person the whole battalion can rely on is him, Lan Ziyi.
Lan Ziyi came here with all his heart to close the door, and he didn't have time to think about messy things. In order to prevent the ignited torches from blocking the flames, the thieves who had lit the fire pushed the two gates wide open. Lan Ziyi's arms naturally couldn't be long enough to pull the continuous door to close at the same time, so he could only run to the door closest to him first and pull the door with all his strength to close it.
But this period of time was enough for the demon thief to rush over, and according to Lan Ziyi's estimate, it was impossible for him to close the door before the demon thief anyway. Although Lan Ziyi knew that the situation was not good, he would not escape, and Lan Ziyi wanted to try to delay the speed of the demon thief's advance.
The camp gate is made of cut logs, and even in dry conditions, it is not possible for one person to push it. Now Lan Ziyi walked forward in the mud by pulling a door, and there were many corpses of officers and soldiers who had been killed by the demon thieves just now, and Lan Ziyi slipped under his feet from time to time.
Lan Ziyi used his strength to push and pull it on his shoulder, the clothes on his body were long gone, and the clothes were torn into tatters in the fight just now, and then he was pulling wood here, how could Lan Ziyi's fine skin and tender flesh stand it, and after pulling it for a while, his hands were already full of wounds, and his shoulders were also cut several wounds. But even if it was so difficult, Lan Ziyi did not stop moving forward, victory or defeat was in this move, and if he stopped, he would die.
Finally, Lan Ziyi worked hard to pull a door and close it, he thought that he would meet the swarming demon thieves in front of him at this time, but what was surprising was that there were no demon thieves at the door, and it stands to reason that the demon thieves could rush several rounds at this time. Lan Ziyi looked out of the door and found that the demon thieves were actually regrouping far away from the door, and the ground in front of them was full of arrows, and many corpses were scattered in the middle.
Lan Ziyi turned around and looked into the camp and found that it was the archers standing on the camp wall who concentrated their arrows outside the camp gate, and Qiu Xiaozhi commanded the soldiers on the wall loudly. Qiu Xiaozhi's inadvertent opinion just now changed the situation of the battle, Lan Ziyi admired Qiu Xiaozhi in his heart for acting carefully, but also felt the courage rising from the bottom of his heart, the demon thief was not allowed to enter the empty door, isn't this God help me?
Lan Ziyi didn't dare to hesitate, he ignored the wounds on his hands and the exhaustion of his body, and hurriedly ran to the other door, as long as he closed the other door, the demon thief was blocked outside.
