But his smiling face froze in an instant, because in the direction of the ferry, a row of archers appeared in unison, with bright armor and black bows and crossbows in hand, as the first general, it was Tai Shi Ci, and behind Da Shi Ci, it was none other than Xuzhou Mu Liu Ze Liu Runde.

If you see a ghost, Liu Ze will actually appear at the Yangtze River ferry, how is this possible? But Zhen Rong quickly accepted the reality, now he is only a stone's throw away from the Yangtze River ferry, no matter what, he can't give up no matter what, even if it is Liu Ze, whoever wants to stop me is wishful thinking, God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha!

Seeing that there were only hundreds of archers around Liu Ze, a vicious look flashed across his face, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered his subordinates to attack Liu Ze's archers.

The fanatical believers obeyed Zhenrong's orders, and rushed towards the ferry like a tidal wave.

Tai Shi Ci stood coldly in the position of command, due to the short distance, the archers did not use longbows and compound bows, and directly used the three-stone steel string crossbow, the lethal power of this crossbow arrow at close range is undoubtedly huge. As soon as the Buddhists entered the firing range, Tai Shici gave an order, and the first row of 400 crossbow arrows shot at the ground in unison, just like a rain of iron.

Most of these thousands of Buddhist believers wore monks' robes, not to mention heavy armor, not even the most ordinary leather armor of ordinary soldiers were not equipped, and the crossbow arrows made of all steel were so sharp that ordinary heavy armor could not withstand its attack, not to mention a flesh and blood body, so they had to scream bitterly. The high-speed crossbow arrows pierced their heads, chests, and abdomen with ease, and many of them even pierced their bodies directly, stabbing at the second row of Buddhists without slowing down. Because when these Buddhists rushed up, they were almost crowded on a not too wide road, and the dense crowd allowed the damage rate of the crossbow arrows to reach the maximum, and the four hundred crossbow arrows caused five or six hundred casualties to the Buddhists, and the wounded and dead fell in a large area.

Before they could understand the taste, a rain of arrows poured in the second row. Tai Shi Ci lined up the eight hundred archers and divided them into two groups of four hundred people each. A group of shots. A set of wounds, firing in turns, always keep shooting coherently. The Buddhists, who had no protection at all, attacked with such a weapon of death, and had no power to fight back. Corpses littered the field. Rivers of blood. Even if they recite the Buddha's name and pray for the Buddha's blessing, it will be useless, and the sharp steel crossbow will still harvest their lives. Face the most terrifying death threats. No matter how fierce the believers of Buddhism are, there are moments of fear, when after crawling out of the pile of dead people, many people lose the courage to move forward and turn and flee.

The flight of some people caused more people to flee, and the Buddhists who were still shouting and attacking became deserters in an instant, and the rout was like a mountain, and it was impossible for Zhenrong to prohibit it at this time.

The sound of killing behind him was getting louder and louder, and Zhang He's pursuers were also approaching. However, Di Rong still has a trump card in his hand, and before losing this trump card, Di Rong will never admit defeat.

Zhen Rong escorted Zhao Yu in the direction of Liu Ze and slowly passed over, causing his subordinates to shout loudly: "Guangling guards Zhao Yu here!" Guangling is too guarded by Zhao Yu here! ”

Liu Ze also saw this situation and ordered the archers to stop shooting.

Zhen Rong is to use Zhao Yu as a shield, Zhang He may not need to care about Zhao Yu's life and death, but Liu Ze is not necessarily, he pushed Zhao Yu in front, just to test whether Liu Ze is indifferent to Zhao Yu's life and death, seeing Liu Ze ordered to stop shooting, his heart was settled, and he shouted from afar: "Liu Yuanjun, how about we make a deal?" ”

Liu Ze smiled coldly and said, "Zhenrong, do you think you still have the qualifications to bargain with my father?" Give you a pillar of incense time to think about it, let go of the hostages, disarm and surrender, otherwise you should know the power of this crossbow arrow! ”

Zhen Rong put a knife on Zhao Yu's neck, and said with a smile: "Liu Yuanjun, Lao Wei is not as stupid as you think, if you disarm and surrender, I am afraid that you will be sent to the gallows, the taste of the rope strangled in the neck is not comfortable after all, if you want to die, Lao Wei would rather die under your arrow, so happy, not to mention that there is Zhao Taishou on Huangquan Road, and he will definitely not be lonely!" ”

Liu Ze knows very well that it is not so easy for a vicious person like Zhen Rong to compromise, if he is really forced to the point of exhaustion, he will definitely kill the hostages in a frenzy, it is not a pity for a Ji Rong to die, if Zhao Yu dies in his hands, it will be a great loss for Liu Ze.

"Okay, my father promised you, as long as you let go of Zhao Taishou, I will ensure that you leave Guangling safely, how about it?"

When Zhao Yu saw that Liu Ze was going to accept the conditions of Zhenrong, he couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted loudly: "Liu Yuanjun, you can't agree to this thief, it's not a pity for Zhao Yu to die, but you can't break the rules and regulations of the court, and Liu Yuanjun can't accept the coercion of the thief!" Rong Rong sins and countless people in Guangling, please ask Liu Yuanjun to bring him to justice, and Ling Chi Cun to comfort the dead people! ”

Zhen Rong was furious, raised the hilt of the knife and smashed it on Zhao Yu's face, knocking out several of Zhao Yu's teeth on the spot, and a mouth full of blood splattered out, shouting and scolding while beating: "You are so cheap-mouthed, the old man is talking to Liu Yuanjun, and you are also qualified to speak?" ”

Zhao Yu glared angrily, swallowed the fallen teeth and blood in his stomach, and said through gritted teeth: "Rong dog thief, today you are already winged and unable to escape, Zhao will never let you succeed even if you fight for this life!" ”

Seeing that Zhen Rong was so stubborn, Tai Shi Ci was furious, and was about to pat the horse forward, Liu Ze stopped him and said lightly: "It is said that this person who eats fasting and recites Buddha has compassion, and today I see what the head of the Zhen Sect has done, and I know that what he said is wrong." Buddhism has clouds, put down the butcher's knife, become a Buddha on the ground, want to be so ferocious and murderous as the head of the sect, and put the pure rules and precepts of the Buddhist family in the back of his head, how can he ascend to the land of Western bliss, even if it is Ananda hell, it can't be tolerated, right? ”

The Buddhists around Zhen Rong were all ashamed, and Zhen Rong ignored Liu Ze's ridicule at all, and said: "The ants are still stealing life, and the old man is just doing this to survive, as for the merits and demerits, the old man has no mental knowledge." If Liu Yuanjun is willing to make a deal, please let a way out, and when the old man boards the ship, he can release Zhao Taishou. ”

Liu Ze instructed the archers to make way and said, "My father has already said, let go of Zhao Taishou, and my father will ensure that you leave Guangling safely, and you don't need to repeat it again, right?" ”

Zhen Rong hesitated, Zhao Yu was already the last hole card in his hand, if he really let it go, Liu Ze turned his face, then it would really be dead and there was no place to be buried, he shouted: "No!" Before Lao Wei got on the boat, it was impossible to let Zhao Yu go! ”

Liu Ze looked at him coldly and said contemptuously: "Zhenrong, do you think that all the people in the world are as despicable and filthy as you?" This public hall Xuzhou pastor, how can you lose your trust in the world because of you? Tell you the truth, I don't like a pig or a dog like you, killing you is really a defilement of my sword! If you want to roll, let go of the hostages, and get out of here, my father's patience is limited! ”

Zhen Rong's face was covered with sweat, Liu Ze's aura was so great that he was almost out of breath, with his character, Liu Ze didn't believe him at all, so it was almost impossible to take hostages on the ship. Time passed minute by minute, and the panic in Zhenrong's heart became bigger and bigger, and if he delayed here for a moment, his life would be more dangerous, so he had to put all his hopes on Liu Ze's reputation, and made the biggest gamble in his life.

Untying Zhao Yu's rope, Zhen Rong said to Liu Ze: "Okay, according to Liu Yuanjun's words, I hope Liu Ze will remember his oath and don't break his word and get fat!" ”

Liu Ze shrugged his shoulders and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of please. Di Rong didn't want to stay here for a moment longer, so he led the remnants of his army to defeat the general, and rushed through the gap vacated by the archers, eager to grow his wings, and then flew across the Yangtze River.

When he passed by the archers, it was the moment when Di Rong was most worried, he was afraid that Liu Ze would suddenly attack, but Liu Ze sat on the white horse, not moving at all, with a reserved smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't make any moves at all, and Zhen Rong's heart hanging in his throat was temporarily returned to his stomach.

But when he arrived at the ferry, he was dumbfounded, and there was only one boat on the ferry, and although this boat was not small, it could only accommodate a few hundred people at best. Although his tens of thousands of horses were chased and killed by Liu Ze's army all the way, with countless casualties, there were still three or four thousand people, how could this boat cross so many of his people across the river?

"Liu Yuanjun, there is only one boat, how can I cross?" Zhen Rong had no choice but to shamelessly beg Liu Ze again.

Liu Ze said lightly: "My father said that he could guarantee that you would leave Guangling safely, and he would definitely not break his promise." As for the boats, I'm sorry, the number is limited, and we can only provide such a boat for the head of the Zheng sect, if the head of the Zheng sect thinks that there are few boats, you might as well wait a few more days for a ship to come over on the south coast. ”

How many more days to wait? Di Rong is not willing to wait for even a breath now, it seems that Liu Ze has made it clear that he will not let himself leave with so many people, it's just that, now it is the knife and I am the fish and meat, Di Rong did not dare to delay any longer, and took his henchmen to take the lead on the boat. Then the believers flocked to the ship, all scrambling to climb onto the boat.

"Sect leader, no, the ship is sinking!" Someone exclaimed.

This boat can only carry two or three hundred people at most, and no matter how many people come up, it can only be the boat sinking to the bottom of the river. If anyone dares to board the ship, they will be killed! (To be continued......)
