Volume 2 Skycloud Hegemony Chapter 137 The Yellow Sparrow is behind
Ma Jun looked at the South Gate Fortress in front of him, a mocking smile appeared on his gloomy face, after knowing him for so many years, how could he not know Ram Shen's thoughts?
Hmph! If he hadn't deliberately released the water, how could he have easily led his men to escape to the South Gate Fortress? Ram Shen naively thought that he could save his life by escaping here, but he didn't know that this was the burial place he had deliberately brought them here.
When a person has just risen a glimmer of hope for survival, but is suddenly ruthlessly extinguished, that desperate look makes him feel extremely excited just thinking about it.
Ram Shen and Zhong Li Mo must have a certain degree of wariness against themselves, but they had to follow the path they had arranged for them step by step. This pleasure of manipulating the fate of others made him deeply obsessed, and he found that he could not suppress the excitement in his heart.
"My lord, do you want to attack immediately while the enemy army is not firmly established?" Wang Zhong stepped forward again and asked Ma Jun.
"Have all the teams in the back arrived?" asked Ma Jun noncommittally to Ma Yi, who was standing aside.
"It's all here!" Ma Yi replied immediately.
At this time, Ma Jun nodded and said sternly to Wang Zhong: "Zhongli Mo is seriously injured and unconscious, and Ram Shen is difficult to support alone, it is a good opportunity for us to capture the enemy in one fell swoop." Wang Zhong, this time I will order you to be the striker, and you must take the fortress gate for me as soon as possible, so that it will be difficult for Ram Shen and the others to fly even if they have wings. If you make a mistake this time, then you don't have to come back, understand?"
"The villain understands! Don't worry, if the villain can't take the gate of the fortress, then the villain will come to see the adult!" Wang Zhong knew that the time had come to decide his life and death, but he was still very sure that he was only dealing with the tired soldiers of Ram Shen.
Ma Jun glanced at Wang Zhong expressionlessly, and then turned to Ma Yi and ordered: "Ma San, you lead the team to follow Wang Zhong and attack the fortress for me;
"Yes, sir!"
Ma Yi and the others hurriedly responded, and then followed Wang Zhong to arrange the team.
Look at the teams of men and horses constantly attacking the fortress in front, but the Ma army is calm, Ram Shen's troops seem to have a lot of manpower, but in fact, there is not much combat effectiveness.
It was clear from the first wave of advance that Ram Shen's troops would not use the crossbows on the fortress, which made it easy for their attacking troops to approach the fortress.
When Wang Zhong led his team close to the fortress wall, they did not blindly attack the fortress directly, but used the strong crossbow in their hands to suppress the guards on the wall first.
The strong crossbow in their hands was a new product that had just been developed recently, and in order to verify its actual combat power, Cai Hezhong ordered that priority should be given to the Qingchao troops.
However, the Ram Shen did not find this new type of weapon in the warehouse that the horse army revealed to them, which made them lack sufficient long-range offensive means, so that Wang Zhong and the others took advantage of the long-range offensive advantage and suppressed them very advantageously.
Wang Zhong, Ma San, and Ma Yi all approached the fortress wall almost unharmed under the cover of strong crossbows, Wang Zhong led his subordinates to rush to the fortress gate, and Ma San led his troops to launch the first wave of attacks on the city wall.
Groups of warriors set up long ladders and climbed as fast as they could, but the guards inside the walls could no longer hide, and they showed their heads and fought with the horse troops who climbed up. Due to the constant threat of crossbows, the city's garrisons struggled to defend and suffered heavy casualties.
"Alliance leader, the brothers can't stand it anymore! you can think of a way, right?" finally Li Que ran back with a bloody stain and reported to the ram Shen.
"The Ma army is going to kill us! Now there is only one way, let's quickly withdraw from the fortress and flee outside, maybe there is still a chance of survival. Ram Shen was also very helpless at this time, the number of troops of the Ma army was nearly twice as large as his own, and they waited for work, their own side had almost no chance of winning, and now there was only one way to retreat.
"Oh no, Alliance Leader!The gate of the fortress has fallen!" Liu Shan ran to report to Ram Shen with a panicked expression.
"What? How could the fortress gate be lost? Didn't I arrange for nearly a hundred men to be over there?" Ram Shen's face turned pale, and the fall of the fortress gate meant that the last retreat for himself and others had been broken, and I am afraid that this time they would really die here.
"The enemy's strong crossbow attack is too fierce, and the brothers can't stop it at all! Many of our brothers didn't even touch a single hair of the other party, and they were shot to death by the other party from a distance, how can we stop it?" Liu Shan was also pale at this time, he saw Liu Da was blocked by the other party's arrow and died on the spot, although he usually hated Liu Da very much, but at this time it was inevitable that there was a trace of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox.
"It seems that the general trend has gone, but I never expected that we would finally be planted in the hands of Ma Jun. Ram Shen said with a reluctant face, they imagined that the Ma army might turn their faces, but in the end they still had a trace of illusion, hoping that the biggest goal of the Ma army was only to control the mining area, and give them a chance to escape. Unfortunately, it backfired, and the Ma army eventually caught up and cornered them.
"Lord of the Ram League, my uncle and he... "At this time, Zhong Li Que only hopes that Zhong Li Mo can wake up, maybe he can do something.
"He is too badly wounded, he is still in a coma, and it will be impossible to wake up for a while, so you don't have to hold up any hope, and order the brothers to gather together with me, and not to make fearless resistance. Ram Shen said to Zhong Li Que with a decadent face.
"But... Zhong Lique wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.
"Go ahead, Ma Jun's men may kill us, but they will most likely let the brothers live, after all, whoever takes control of the mining area, he needs someone to mine, doesn't he?" Ram Shen waved his hand, signaling Zhong Lique to hurry up and carry out the order.
"I see!" finally Li Que turned and left, he understood that Ram Shen was right, and the Ma army was very likely to kill their leaders, but his brothers could indeed save their lives.
Seeing the back of Zhong Li Que dejected, and then at Zhong Li Mo, who was still lying unconscious on the single frame, the ram Shen Wuduo sighed.
Under the unremitting onslaught of the Malay troops, the fortress soon fell. Ram Shen and Zhong Limo, who was lying unconscious on a single frame, were escorted to the open space in front of the fortress by Ma Jun. Behind them stood a contingent of less than two hundred men, all of whom had been disarmed and brought over.
Seeing that Ram Shen and Zhong Li Mo and the others were finally captured by themselves, Ma Jun was very excited, he glanced at Zhong Li Mo who was still unconscious on the ground, and then turned his head to look at Cai Hezhong's car, with a satisfied smile on his face.
He finally couldn't help laughing, and then said to Ma Yi beside him: "You can release the signal!"
"Yes!" Ma Yi immediately turned and ran towards the fortress.
"Huh!~~~~!" A sharp whistle flew from the top of the fortress to the sky, and the sharp whistle completely pierced the heavy night sky and spread far away.
"What was the sound just now?" Cai Hezhong immediately got out of the car, and he approached Ma Jun and asked him.
"Lord Steward, that's a whistle!" Ma Jun said to Cai Hezhong with a serious face.
"Your Excellency, please see, that strange whistle came from that direction. As he spoke, Ma Jun pointed to the fortress in the distance and said.
"Oh?。。。 Cai Hezhong instinctively turned his head to look in the direction of Ma Jun's finger, but at this moment, a flash of light suddenly flashed on Ma Jun's hand, and then it was quickly inserted into the unsuspecting Cai Hezhong's abdomen like lightning.
"Uh。。。 You!... ”
Cai Hezhong was suddenly hit hard, and he instinctively grabbed Ma Jun's hand firmly with his hand, so that it could not continue to penetrate into his body.
Ma Jun kicked out again, kicking Cai Hezhong violently backwards, and his hand pulled out of Cai Hezhong's abdomen.
Cai Hezhong splattered blood all the way, fell a few meters away, he sat up with difficulty, his mouth was already full of blood, and it was overflowing from his mouth.
He covered his blood-gushing abdomen with one hand, and with the other hand, he trembled and pointed at Ma Jun's difficult opening and scolded: "You... You traitor! Why are you doing this?"
"Ma Jun, you traitor, I'm going to kill you!~~~"
Cai Yu looked at the incredible scene in front of him in a daze, and suddenly he realized that Ma Jun was a traitor, and he attacked the chief manager. So he roared, drew his sword, and pounced on the Ma army, he wanted to break the Ma army into pieces.
Cai Hezhong's other three guards finally reacted, they drew their swords and followed Cai Yu to kill the Ma army.
Ma Jun didn't look at Cai Yu and the others who pounced on him, he just waved his hand casually, and suddenly "Boom!boom!" A dense sound of crossbow arrows sounded, and before Cai Yu and the four of them approached Ma Jun's side, they were shot into hedgehogs by the crossbow arrows that came from them.
Cai Yu's attack suddenly stopped, they stood still for a moment, and then slowly fell to the ground.
"Hmph! I can't help myself!" Ma Jun made an evaluation of Cai Yu and the others' performance, he showed a look of extreme excitement, and then said to Cai Hezhong, who was seriously injured and dying: "You didn't expect it, did you? Hahahaha!"
"Traitor, why did you betray our Cai family?" Cai Hezhong stared at Ma Jun, trying to see through him.
"Why? Do you want to know?" Ma Jun asked with an evil smile, he saw the extreme longing in Cai Hezhong's eyes, but grinned: "I just won't tell you, let you die as a fool!"
"You madman, you go with me to die!" Cai Hezhong suddenly pulled out the hand covering his abdomen, and a talisman appeared in his hand, and he used his last spiritual power to crush the talisman and throw it towards Ma Jun.
A blazing flame suddenly rose into the air, covering a radius of fifty meters, and the temperature of the flame became higher and higher, and in just a few seconds, Cai Hezhong, who had no resistance, was the first to be burned to ashes. The surrounding Ma troops were also severely damaged, and all the soldiers in the flames were burned to ashes, and not a single living mouth was left.
Ma Jun knew that something was wrong the moment the talisman was fired, and he immediately made a decision, putting all his internal strength into operation, and his whole body was shrouded in a faint light. The speed increased to its own limit almost instantly, and the whole person turned into a band of light, and rushed towards the direction of the fortress against the blazing flames.
At the moment when he rushed out of the range of flames, suddenly a blazing fist burst through the air, hitting Ma Jun in the chest with a punch, knocking him upside down.
Ma Jun worked hard to adjust his posture in the air, so that he could not fall back into the enveloping range of flames, thus saving a life. But he didn't get better, and when he turned over and stood up, a mouthful of big blood instantly spurted out more than a meter away.
"It's you, Zhong Li Mo!" Ma Jun looked incredulous.
