Chapter 251: Night Battle
With a bang, a snow-white lotus flower bloomed in the night sky of Jiangning.
The light broke through the darkness in an instant, and the solemn Jiangning, at this moment, was as bright as day.
With the explosion of the signal flare in the night sky, the encirclement and suppression of the Dongying people also began quietly.
There was no roar of murder, and there was no blood spurt. Everything was done in great silence.
Bleak clouds obscured the night sky, and the last shimmers of the moon vanished. The entire land of Jiangning fell into a pitch black with no fingers visible.
In the inky night, only the strange sound of swishing can be heard. The bow and arrow battalion that had been arranged for a long time fired thousands of arrows at the moment when the signal flare was ignited.
A series of deadly feather arrows were shot from all directions to the Dongying people guarding the streets, and the dark night provided natural concealment for the arrows.
Arrows like locusts suddenly shot out and pressed forward overwhelmingly.
At the mouth of the alley, dozens of Dongying people didn't even react at all. was shot through the chest and through the head by the feather arrow of ten thousand powers.
Bang bang bang...... The improved crossbow machine, one after another, shot iron arrows through the night and through the chests of those men. Huge force, directly nailed them to the wall.
This was an attack by the vanguard, a wave of surprise attacks led by the bow battalion. The aim is to suddenly burst out of power and maximize the consumption of the opponent's elite power.
"Yaga!"
A samurai dressed in black and wearing a hat on his head hurriedly drew his sword and knocked out a feather arrow that shot at his eyebrows, then turned his head and looked to his side.
Seeing that the dozens of warriors who were originally standing beside him were all killed in this dense rain of arrows.
He roared, his katana in both hands, and rushed towards the restaurant where the feathered arrow had been shot.
"Kill him!" On the second floor, the instructor of the archery battalion, Li Hu, saw that the crazy Dongying warrior dared to rush over, a sneer lifted at the corner of his mouth, turned his head, and said to the archer beside him.
"Yes!" The archer nodded in response, wiped the sweat from his palms, and then took out three iron arrows and loaded them into the crossbow.
His eyes narrowed slightly, aiming at the Dongying samurai downstairs, dodging the feathered arrows while rushing. After taking a deep breath, he suddenly pulled the mechanism and swished...... Three iron arrows shot out in no particular order.
"There it is!" The archer, seeing the accurate arrival of the three iron arrows, was overjoyed in his heart and shouted excitedly.
However, the Toei samurai who can be sent to find the heart of the sky are not in vain. Especially this Dongying person, it seems that he should be the captain of that team.
I saw that the moment the iron arrow was shot, the Dongying people suddenly rolled to the left.
Plop Plop Plop ...... The three iron arrows shot in unison into the cracks of the bluestone slab, shaking slightly.
"My lord, this man is so powerful...... the archer couldn't help but be surprised when he saw this scene. Turning his head, just as he was about to speak, he saw that Master Li Hu beside him had already picked up his bow and arrows.
He looked calmly at the Dongying man downstairs who was about to rush over, snorted coldly, and took out two feather arrows from the quiver behind him.
An arrow caught the bowstring, and without the slightest hesitation, the bow was drawn and the arrow was shot.
And in the next moment, Li Hu suddenly wound again like lightning, and another feather arrow, in a short time, followed by the tail of the first arrow, chased away.
Two arrows, one in front of the other, arrived one after the other.
The warrior swung his sword and threw the first arrow away. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the second arrow followed.
Flutter ...... The feather arrow hit him in the head accurately, and the white wings, instantly stained red with blood, were inserted into the head of the Dongying man, shaking slightly.
"Archery, use your brain!" After seeing the Dongying man plop down and fall to the ground. Li Hu turned his head, raised his hand and patted his head, and said in a deep voice to the soldier who was looking at him with a look of adoration.
"Okay, you train your soldiers first, and the rest will be handed over to us!" Beside him, the commander of the infantry battalion saw that the Dongying warrior guarding the entrance of the alley had been cleared. He laughed, said to Li Hu, and walked directly downstairs.
"Brother Hu......" Li Hu frowned when he saw this person going down like this, and called out. I remembered the advice of the military advisor before the war. He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the infantry battalion officer, and said in a deep voice: "Master Hu, I see, I'm still waiting!" ”
"Don't worry, the people of Dongying are not so powerful!" The infantry battalion officer laughed, raised his hand and patted Li Hu's shoulder and said, "Next, let's watch my brother's performance!" ”
Out of the building, the night was bleak and cold.
He turned his head and glanced at the armored soldiers beside him.
"Brothers, follow me!" The officer let out a low roar, and then rushed directly into the deep alley with his knife in his hand.
On the building, Li Hu saw these brothers in the infantry camp, so he rushed in. I was extremely uneasy.
Just when he was about to summon his brothers, draw bows and shoot arrows, and cover the fire for those brothers in the infantry camp. I heard a terrible cry suddenly coming from the alley.
The sound of clanging, with a whistling sound of breaking through the air, sounded in the alley.
"Oops!" Li Hu was shocked, and hurriedly rushed towards the downstairs with ten people from the bow and arrow battalion.
As soon as I went out, I saw a soldier covered in blood, staggering out of the alley.
His armor had been torn, scarred and bleeding. And on his wound, there are strange sharp weapons inlaid with hexagons.
"Meteor Dart?" Li Hu saw the soldier who fell to the ground, with a dense hexagonal dart on his back. His face changed suddenly.
"Go back!" Li Hu exclaimed in surprise and glanced at the alley in front of him where the sound of low footsteps came, feeling extremely uneasy.
Raise your hand and ask the soldiers behind you to stop. He took a deep breath, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and gently gestured to the archers beside him: "Go back"
As soon as the words fell, I suddenly heard a series of sounds similar to the sound of the beeping in the alley ahead.
Then, I saw countless cold lights shooting out from the alley.
dense, like tens of thousands of bats, flying overwhelmed.
"Retreat!" Li Hu's eyes narrowed, he roared, beckoned the brothers, and withdrew to the restaurant.
There was a bang, and the door was slammed open. The archers who had just rushed out were extremely embarrassed by this burst of darts and forced back.
They staggered, shoved each other, and squeezed into the restaurant.
As soon as I came to the door, I heard a muffled thud from the door panel.
Sou...... The meteor dart has been penetrating the wooden board and shooting straight in.
Li Hu made a lightning shot, pinched the meteor dart with both hands, which had lost much strength, and then glanced at the faint light in the room.
I saw that the dart was blue and watery, obviously smeared with poison.
Li Hu, who was staring at the poison on the dart in a daze, suddenly heard the soldiers beside him let out a terrible scream. When he looked back, the corners of his eyes suddenly grinned. The two soldiers, who couldn't dodge, were cut by the meteor dart. At this time, the poisonous surname spread, and it has been poisoned.
"Damn, what a vicious heart!"
Li Hu pinched the meteor dart, his face gloomy as water.
…… On the Qinhuai River, the big boat is quietly docked in the river. The waves crashed against the ship's side, making a soft sound.
The cold wind howled, and the willow trees by the river shook violently.
There were waves in the river, and the big boat swayed in the river. The flags planted on the deck sneered as if they couldn't bear the raging wind.
Lu Heng stood quietly on the boat, looking at the small courtyard across the river, listening to the sound of killing, his eyes were calm.
There was a stirring on the surface of the water, Agui's ears moved, his eyes narrowed, and his powerful hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist.
Standing at the outermost end, Xu Liang's eyes changed slightly after glancing at the water under the boat. Turning around and walking to Lu Heng's side, he glanced at Lu Heng, and seeing that the military advisor looked indifferent, he was uneasy in his heart, and he didn't dare to tell Lu Heng. I had to say to Agui: "Brother Agui, they are here!" ”
"Well, you protect your son!" A sly smile lifted the corner of Ah Gui's mouth and nodded lightly.
"I'll do it myself!" After a deep glance at Xu Liang, Gui said in a deep voice.
"Good!" Xu Liang hesitated, but when he saw Agui's irrepressible anger, he finally nodded solemnly.
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers who were squatting on the ground and aiming their arrows at the side of the ship stepped back slightly, leaving a space for Agui.
The sound of water hitting the side of the ship and the gentle sound of the waves came.
Suddenly, the undulating surface of the river erupted into a series of explosions.
In the exploding splash, dozens of Dongying warriors dressed in water suddenly jumped out of the water.
They raised their hands in unison and threw them hard, and the steel hook came out of their hands, accurately grabbing the side of the ship.
These dozens of Dongying warriors pulled hard. A hard kick under your feet. I saw them, as agile as geckos, rushing up along the side of the ship.
"Come on!" On the deck before the meeting, these dozens of Dongying samurai drew their katana swords and rushed over with a shout. Ah Gui grasped the hilt of the sword with one hand and pulled it out vigorously.
With a snort, an arc of blue light flashed out of thin air.
Ah Gui casually threw the scabbard aside, held the broadsword with both hands, leaned forward slightly, stared at them, let out a deep roar, and rushed into the Dongying warrior.
At that moment, in the cold light that froze. A faint blue glow illuminates the night sky!
…… Outside the city, in the night sky, the moment when the lotus blooms.
Duan Peng retracted his gaze, turned his head, looked at the generals gathered beside him, thought for a moment, and nodded: "Let's act!" ”
Flags swayed, heralds ran back and forth, horses' hooves flying. In the flying dust, the dense army instantly spread towards the four directions of Jiangning.
Like a huge black network, it shrouded Jiangning City in it.
Jiangning City, murderous,
