It turned out to be a barbarian invasion. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Han Chen put down the big stone in his heart: It's not good to target yourself, it's a white nervousness.
Just as he was about to enter the city, suddenly a low and rapid trumpet sound came from the city, and the non-commissioned officer was startled and blurted out: "No, the barbarian is here again." He hurriedly said to Han Chen: "Master, you go into the city to avoid it, the barbarian is as fierce as a demon beast, in case you are injured, it will not be good." ”
After speaking, he ignored Han Chen, and hurriedly organized the defense of the city gate with other soldiers.
Hearing that the barbarians had invaded, there was chaos outside the city, and the officers and soldiers defending the city were not easy to check anymore, and an officer shouted to the sergeant: "Immediately remove the checkpoint and let the people into the city!" At the same time, he said to the crowd that swarmed in: "All the people who enter the city are gathered under the city wall, and those who leave without permission will be punished as spies!"
There were too many people entering the city, and there were many large chariots and horses loaded with goods, and the panic caused the city gate to become chaotic and congested. Despite the removal of the barriers, the speed at which the crowd entered the city did not increase much.
The officers and soldiers guarding the door kept yelling: "Don't squeeze, all ......"
However, at the moment of crisis, everyone is thinking of self-preservation, and who cares about the command of the officers and men? The crowd came one after another, rushing into the city one after another, and after a while, the originally long and narrow procession was all piled up outside the city gate, and dozens of large trucks were stacked on the road like building blocks, blocking the city gate and making it more and more difficult to enter.
The sound of the trumpet became more rapid. Waves of smoke and dust rolled up outside the city, and in the smoke and dust, dozens of tall figures were faintly visible.
Seeing this, the officer guarding the city couldn't help but be frightened: "Hell, why did this group of barbarians come so quickly?" He hurriedly beckoned to the soldiers: "Close the gate, close the city gate quickly!"
At this time, there were at least hundreds of people blocking the door, seeing that the officers and soldiers began to block the flow of people, the huge city gate was slowly lowered, and the crowd outside the city couldn't help but become ants on a hot pot.
A middle-aged man who had just entered the door scolded at the officers and soldiers: "You inhuman bastards, there are so many people outside, do you just let them be abused by the barbarians?"
He stepped forward to push the soldiers, and an officer threw him to the ground and shouted: "If you dare to disturb the city defense again, I will kill you immediately!"
The middle-aged man crawled back and knelt in front of the officer, pleading: "My lord, my family is still outside the door......!
The officer was unmoved: "Let them in?
At this time, several soldiers who reported the news came to the city gate from the sentry post of the city wall, and before the soldiers could speak, the officer asked first: "How many barbarians have come?"
A newspaper soldier said: "There are not many people, it is a team fighting the autumn wind, there are only about 100 people, and it is estimated that they are rushing to the caravan outside the city." ”
The officer's brows tightened when he heard the news: "The team fighting the autumn wind? Damn, it's the most troublesome." ”
Han Chen had already been rushed to the city by the crowd, and he wanted to see the so-called barbarians, so he didn't leave. Hearing the officer's conversation, he couldn't help but ask a businessman-looking person beside him, "This old man, do you know what the 'Autumn Wind Fighting Team' is?"
When the man saw a three-star alchemist asking him in a kind voice, he couldn't help but be surprised, and hurriedly replied respectfully: "Master, this barbarian has a low civilization, and the army is not as strict as my human race. They have only two military systems, one is the siege brigade, which is very numerous, and we call it the 'regular army'. There is also a group of small teams, generally ranging from tens to one or two hundred people, they are mainly outposts and guerrillas, and often plunder caravans outside the city, and sometimes they dare to break into the city gate when they seize the opportunity. However, they all rush and leave, and they never fight soon, so we call it 'fighting autumn wind'. ”
Han Chen was still puzzled: "Didn't the caravan hire guards? There are also a lot of guards at the city gate, since there are not many barbarians, can't they stop it?"
A person next to the man took the initiative to come up and said: "Master doesn't know, this kind of team fighting the autumn wind is composed of the elite of the barbarians, although the number is small, but the combat power is very strong, ordinary troops and caravan guards can't match it at all!"
The man from before smiled bitterly: "Our escort team can only guard against human bandits, but not against those barbarians. ”
Han Chen couldn't help but glance at the mercenaries around him, it turned out that the cultivation of these people was generally not high, and the strongest was only at the middle level of the Spirit Wheel Realm, if the barbarians were really as powerful as rumored, it would be impossible for these people to resist.
Han Chen was born in a remote aristocracy, and knew that it was not easy to travel far to do business, and if he spent a lot of money to hire a master to escort him, then the profit he would make would not be much. Therefore, he understood the difficulties of these small businessmen very well, and thought of his relatives in his hometown, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
I heard the officer ask again: "What about the city defense army?"
The reporter said: "The military situation has been reported to the border general's mansion, and Major General Mo Rong is rushing to gather his troops and horses, and he should be able to arrive within ten minutes." ”
Mo Rong?
This rather familiar name made Han Chen's heart move, and he suddenly remembered, isn't this the three-star junior alchemist who advanced to the finals with him in the Alchemist Competition, and later drew lots to the enemy camp to fight against Ye Xuan?
It should be right, in the player's profile, his identity has also been emphatically pointed out - the battle mage of the border military department of Polmu City, and he still has a certain reputation among the imperial military and civilians.
He doesn't have much intersection with Mo Rong, but he can be regarded as having a relationship. It's just that with his current situation, he can't recognize the other party no matter what.
The walls and gates of Bolwood City are made of tough synthetic materials that can withstand the heavy blows of ordinary strong men. In particular, the gate is said to have been built by a military alchemist, and its toughness is almost comparable to that of a warrior's weapon.
The city gate gradually fell, and as long as this door was closed, ordinary people could not push it open even if several people went up without the help of wheels.
Outside the crack in the door, which was less than two meters, the crowd screamed and struggled in despair, and hundreds of meters behind them was a team of barbarians approaching closer and closer.
Han Chen felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he had the heart to make a move, but he was worried about revealing his identity. After hesitating, the moving gate suddenly froze.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, don't get in the way!" Several mercenary-looking men squeezed in front of the door domineeringly, and without hesitating the warnings of the officials and soldiers, they forcibly broke into the military formation behind the door.
Seven or eight soldiers were caught off guard and were brutally knocked to the ground by the other party, and the leading military officer hurriedly stopped in front of those people and shouted angrily: "Bastard, dare to destroy the military rank, are you looking for death......?"
Before the words were finished, the big men were the first to go crazy: "It doesn't matter who you are, if you dare to stand in the way of Lao Tzu, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite!"
"Damn, get them to justice on the spot...... "How could the officer show weakness?
Both of them are the sixth level of cultivation in the Spirit Wheel Realm, and their strength is also half a catty and eight taels, and they fought evenly for a while. The rest of the soldiers and a few other mercenaries also fought, and the crowd outside the gate took the opportunity to squeeze in, and the defenders on the city wall came down to help, and the city gate suddenly fell into chaos.
The barbarians are getting closer and closer, and if they continue like this, the city gates will be attacked. Han Chen decided not to sit idly by, and at the same time, he could also learn about the characteristics of the barbarians, and he wanted to personally meet the overlord of this wasteland for a while!
Without saying a word, Han Chen flew towards the vicious crowd.
The big man who broke through seemed to have some means, and he couldn't take advantage of it after dozens of moves, so he used his killer weapon without thinking!
"Die—Flint Fist!"
The fierce power of martial arts rolled like a boulder, and the city gate was already crowded, and the sudden strong qi wave surged out with the fist, and suddenly lifted the nearby people to a stumble.
"Xuan-rank low-level martial arts!" the officer's face changed color in an instant.
The strength of the army lies in the cooperation of the battle, if it fights alone, it may not be the opponent of the knights of the rivers and lakes. What soldiers are inferior to is not their combat skills and experience, but the exercises that can amplify their own skills!
The officer obviously lacked the ability to fight against the Xuan-rank martial arts, and when he saw that the other party was menacing, he hurriedly hid to the side.
However, there were people on the left and right, and he had not been able to move a few meters before he crashed into a soldier. It was just this short pause that the big man's offensive caught up in front of him.
The mercenaries live a life of licking blood from the knife edge, and they will not hesitate when they should escape, and they will not show mercy when they start. Now that his life is threatened, let alone a small officer, the other party is a third-level officer, as long as he can fight, he will be killed!
Seeing that the big man's fist was about to smash on the officer, the soldiers and people nearby couldn't help but exclaim.
Finished!
The officers were also dead-faced.
At the moment when the fist was implemented, a thick spiritual fluctuation suddenly fell from the sky, and in front of the officer, a layer of spiritual power barrier visible to the naked eye instantly appeared.
"Bang ......"
The fist slammed into the spiritual power barrier, as if hitting a thick wall of cotton wool, and the power of martial arts was instantly wiped out.
A circle of energy ripples spread out with the energy, and the big man was immediately bounced to the ground and sat on the ground.
The big man got up and scolded: "Damn, who is it? Who dares to stop me?"
"It's me!" A calm voice came from mid-air, and Han Chen landed on the ground and stood in front of the big man.
"Master?" It wasn't just the officer, but everyone around was taken aback.
What does this venerable alchemist want to do? Could it be that he also wants to participate in this low-level struggle?
A three-star alchemist, in more than eighty percent of the empire's cities, is enough to serve as the president of the local alchemist's guild, and a high-ranking figure like this usually disdains to bother with street fights. Han Chen's behavior has attracted a lot of attention.
Most people who are arrogant on the surface are actually bullies and afraid of hard in their bones. Seeing that it was a three-star alchemist, the momentum of the big man softened a little.
After a few seconds, the big man asked with a calm face, "Master, what do you mean by this?"
