Chapter Twenty-Eight: An Eagle Flew in the Sky
There was a strong enemy in front, and there were chasing soldiers in the back, and everyone was surrounded by the slaves of the Long family and the soldiers of the city lord's mansion, and they surrounded the gate of the city lord's mansion.
Their most powerful reliance, the Treant Man, has lost his fighting power and is dormant as a fruit. Looking at the bright sword outside the door and the dense chasing soldiers behind him, not only Nangong, everyone began to despair.
Someone in the crowd shouted: "Brothers, fight with them! Kill one is enough, kill two and you will earn!"
Nangong looked at it and recognized that the person who spoke was the prisoner with a sad face who was in the cell just now.
I saw that his face was covered with blood, and he was holding the waist knife snatched from the soldiers of the city lord's mansion in his hand, which had already rolled up the blade, his eyes were full of anger, and he looked desperate and fierce, and he waved the waist knife in his hand and shouted: "Everyone huddle together and rush out!" As long as we break out of a gap, we have the hope of escaping!"
The prisoners echoed loudly, and the crowd was agitated, and they were about to rush out with their swords.
Nangong moved the corners of his mouth, but he didn't know what to say. Now that it's a life-or-death situation, no matter what you say, it's useless, it's better to save some strength and see if you have a chance to fight your way out of the encirclement.
Tightening the short sword in his hand, Nangong took a deep breath and tried to recover as much as he could.
At this moment, something suddenly happened outside the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
Behind the slaves of the Long family, a group of people suddenly came out! Nangong's gaze looked through the overlapping figures in front of him, and it could be seen from their costumes that they were the soldiers of the city defense regiment!
There were only about thirty or fifty soldiers in this group, and they appeared silently, and under the cover of night, they came to a distance of less than three feet behind the slaves of the Long family, and only then were they discovered.
But at this time, it was too late, and this group of guards who suddenly came out waved the weapons in their hands and killed the people and horses of the Long family!
This is the city defense regiment established by Liang Siqin, although in terms of numbers, it is much inferior to the city lord's soldiers, nor as good as the slaves of the Long family, but they are all carefully trained by Liang Siqin, but in terms of strength, they are better than the city lord and the people of the Long family.
These dozens of people, like a sharp knife, stabbed into the formation of the Long family, and the people and horses of the Long family were in chaos, and more than a dozen were killed on the spot.
The people of the Long family quickly reacted, and the first guy who was obviously a small leader raised the spear in his hand and shouted loudly: "One team and two teams, turn around to meet the enemy! Three teams, guns, four teams ...... bows and arrows."
Before the words fell, a cold arrow suddenly shot out of the city defense regiment, and it was in the center of the nest, and the little leader suddenly covered his chest, with an expression of disbelief, and fell.
The so-called gun shot the first bird, just now Nangong was giving orders among the prisoners, and he was seriously injured by a blow from the city lord, and there is still blood on his shoulder. Now this little leader of the Long family obviously made this mistake and was pierced through the heart with an arrow.
Nangong sighed secretly in his heart, and was immediately replaced by ecstasy, and shouted loudly in the crowd: "Brothers, the opportunity has come, if you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait for the next life!
Stimulated by a strong desire to survive, all of them were not afraid of death, completely ignoring the huge gap in numbers, and rushed out desperately to kill, wanting to join the people of the city defense regiment.
And the people of the City Lord's Mansion pursued them with all their might, preventing them from converging. Especially the young man with the short sword, the city lord named him and said that he must be killed quickly, how dare they relax.
The battle was instantly white-hot.
The people of the Long family have become a human wall, the prisoners inside the wall want to get out, and the city defense regiment outside the wall wants to come in. The four sides of the crowd caught each other and fought each other, and the scene was chaotic.
Under the pursuit of the officers and soldiers of the city lord's mansion, there were soon casualties among the prisoners, and the number was reduced again. Leaving behind seven or eight corpses, a hole was finally carved out of the wall built by the Long family.
A soldier of the city defense regiment cut down a slave of the Long family with a knife and appeared in front of Nangong. But he was an old acquaintance, and Nangong recognized him as the guard named Lao Zhang.
"Young Master Nangong...... At the behest of the head of the regiment, the little one has come to meet you with his brothers!"
Nangong laughed loudly: "Okay! Very good! You guys are so timely!"
Suddenly, a long roar sounded in the City Lord's Mansion, and when the whistle started, it seemed that it was still dozens of feet away, but when the whistle ended, it seemed to explode in his ears.
Nangong's face changed greatly, and he said urgently: "Quick! Tell everyone to retreat together! The city lord has arrived, this person is strong, we are definitely not an opponent! Hurry up!"
Lao Zhang nodded, and without saying a word, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, withdraw!"
"Hahaha...... It's not that easy!"
As soon as the words fell, the city lord Yang Hu's wild laughter came from the gate: "The city lord's soldiers obey the order! Shoot with all your might!
With the order of the city lord, arrows suddenly rained down in the air.
The battle situation on the field changed rapidly, and before the people of the city defense regiment could react, several people were immediately injured by arrows. This is not all, the city lord Yang Hu shouted, and then through the rain of arrows, with lightning speed, volleyed in front of Nangong.
Lao Zhang was shocked and shouted: "Protect Young Master Nangong!"
A guard of the city defense regiment held a knife in front of him, the city lord snorted coldly, and waved out a claw, the guard suddenly screamed and flew out, the knife in his hand was connected to his arm, and it was cut off by the shoulder under this claw, and blood sprayed wildly.
Taking this opportunity, Lao Zhang hurriedly grabbed Nangong's collar and dragged it back, and ran out quickly.
Sharp arrows, officers and soldiers, the Long family, the city lord......
Chasing after the city defense regiment like a grim reaper, Nangong suddenly said: "It's not okay to escape like this! The casualties are too great! We must find a way to stop them from shooting arrows!"
Although the city lord is strong, he will either die or be injured as soon as he makes a move, but he is only one person after all, and the casualties mainly come from this rain of arrows.
"Is there a way for Young Master Nangong?" asked Lao Zhang.
Nangong shook his head and was about to speak.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the air!
Liang Zi?!
Nangong was surprised and delighted, looking at the night sky with hope.
As soon as he raised his head, a huge black shadow appeared in the air, its wings spread out, seven or eight zhang wide, it was the Cangyun Eagle! And on its back, there was a young girl, it was Liang Zi who had rushed back from the Long family in the north of the city!
The Cangyun Eagle stopped in mid-air, its huge wings flapped hard, and suddenly a gust of wind blew on the ground, blowing the feathered arrows that were shot in all directions.
Liang Zi appeared on the eagle's back, and the long sword pulled out the sword and swung it down with all his strength! A dazzling sword flashed, and a deep ditch was drawn on the south side in front of the city lord's palace soldiers.
"Death to those who cross the line!" Liang Ziyan warned!
The group of officers and soldiers, together with the people of the Long family, looked at the girl on the back of the eagle, saw the long sword shining in her hand, looked down at the scratches on the ground, and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the same thought invariably rose in their hearts: the power of that sword...... It's just a death if you touch it! The level difference is too far, this level of battle, let's leave it to the city lord to deal with!
After the group of officers and soldiers touched their necks and silently compared the hardness with the bluestone slab on the ground, they involuntarily stopped, and the hands holding the weapons also drooped, and they all looked at the city lord Yang Hu with fear on their faces.
"Arrogant little baby, looking for death!"
Seeing this situation, the city lord Yang Hu was shocked and angry, and with a roar, he jumped up three feet in the air, and shouted in his mouth: "Crazy wolf claw method...... Crack the Sky!"
As he spoke, he swung out a claw in the air, and several cyan wind blades visible to the naked eye pierced the night sky and shot towards the Cangyun Eagle in the air.
Without waiting for Liang Zi's command, Cangyun Ying flapped his wings and flexibly dodged these wind blades.
The main force of the city fell to the ground, looking at the man and the eagle in the sky in anger, but there was nothing to be done......
Because he can't fly......
