Chapter 53: Blocking all the way
A smile appeared at the corner of Nangong Tianlong's mouth: "En?"
Nangong Yu thought nervously, and said slowly: "Long Xiang set up a situation to deal with Ling Xiao, Ling Tian will save his father for thousands of miles, and he will inevitably send all the elites to go! Ordinary people think about it, the current Ling family must be extremely empty, even if it still has some strength, it will be weak, and it must be vulnerable! But Daddy, we have dealt with Ling Tian many times, Daddy thinks that Ling Tian is the kind of person who does things without considering the consequences at all, and actually does not arrange a special backhand at such a moment? Could it be that Ling Tian is such a reckless person?"
Nangong Tianlong laughed: "Yes, Ling Tian is cautious and superhuman, and there must be a very strong backhand left." It's just that it depends on how strong Ling Tian's back hand is! Whether it can withstand the joint attack of the royal family and the Yang family! Don't forget that the strength of the royal Praetorian Guard, the Yang family's strongest secret force, the Three Thousand Heavenly Sword Divine Soldiers, must not be underestimated! I believe that as long as the Ling family slacks off a little, it will inevitably end in the destruction of the family!"
"What does Daddy mean, we should sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight now?" Nangong Yu's eyes lit up and asked.
"Yes! Now that Chengtian has undergone great changes, it seems that there are many crises, but for us, the foreign forces, it is as safe as Mount Tai! It is even a great opportunity! No matter which side of the force, they dare not easily provoke us now. So now we will become an additional force that can influence the situation of the battle in Chengtian! This kind of situation is really hard to find!"
Nangong Tianlong laughed proudly. "If the Ling family has the upper hand, we will help the Ling family, this is definitely a charcoal in the snow, of course, it is also the icing on the cake, and at the same time, we will completely pull up our great enmity against the Yang family! If we completely vent the evil anger in our hearts, we can also get a lot of benefits! If the royal family and the Yang family win, we will fight back and eradicate the Ling family; in this way, we will cooperate with Chengtian and obtain the right to get a piece of the pie in Chengtian; and then slowly plot against the Yang family in the future." In short, today's chaos is a great opportunity for our Nangong family to rise again, no matter what, this ready-made bargain is a certainty. Ha ha...... Xiang I, the Nangong family, has been aggrieved since entering Chengtian, and I can't imagine that the emperor will live up to his hard work. It's finally time for us to raise our eyebrows!"
"Daddy (big brother) Gao Jian!" Nangong Yu and Nangong Tianhu said in unison. Nangong Tianlong was even more happy, waved his hand, and said: "Order the spies, pay close attention to the movement outside, and report back immediately if there is any abnormality! We must keep abreast of the latest changes in the situation! Once the situation is a little clearer, we will take action immediately, without hesitation!"
"Yes!"
Shen Ruhu stared ahead, silent. Mixed feelings. Just a dozen feet forward, turn the corner, and you can see the gate of the Ling family!
The rustling and neat footsteps of the Praetorian Guards seemed to be stepping on Shen Ruhu's heart step by step! Do you really want to shoot at this person who is most respected and admired in your life?
Shen Ruhu couldn't help but turn his head. Looking at the dragon chariot sitting high on the dragon chariot and coming to supervise the battlefield dragon Xiang. Then look at the hundred and ten sword and axe men around him. I was inexplicably irritable and angry!
What kind of bullshit is this? Ruthless means of raiding the family and exterminating the family of a meritorious national meritorious hero. He actually used his knife and axe hand to monitor another high-ranking general who came to carry out the mission! His head was covered with shit?
When you are angry. Suddenly it happened! On the rooftops of the houses on both sides of the street. Rows of figures stood up suddenly. At the same time. Suddenly, hundreds of barrels of black stuff fell down. There was a great confusion among the Guards. Shen Ruhu shouted: "Archer!"
I heard one laugh and say, "You have archers." Don't we?" suddenly shouted, "Shoot the arrows!" at the same time. Shen Ruhu also shouted these two words!
There was a bowstring sound. Suddenly, dozens of people screamed loudly. Fell from the tiles on both sides! None of them were injured! Shen Ruhu was slightly surprised. Why did the man drink the order to release the arrows? But none of the arrows came down? Why? I wondered. Suddenly, my eyes lit up. I couldn't help but look up. I saw that the tile surface was clear. Countless torches were lit! One laughed bitterly: "Haha...... There was Emperor Chengtengu to accompany the funeral. My three dogs are really fortunate to have three lives! This is called the return of two dogs to heaven, right?"
"Black oil!" Shen Ruhu was shocked! The black ground that had fallen down earlier was located in the middle of the Praetorian Guard. Shen Ruhu only then smelled a strange smell. I can't help but change my face!
But, it's too late!
Torches fell like a rainstorm!
Rumble!
The entire street was suddenly plunged into raging flames, and the flames soared almost two or three feet high! In an instant, the more than 10,000 Praetorian Guards of the Chengtian Emperor were cut into two sections!
One of the busiest streets in Chengtian City. In an instant, it became a hell on earth! Thick smoke billowed from a distance of dozens of feet. There was a scream, and countless Praetorian Guards struggled in the sea of fire, trying to rush outward. Moreover, there were more than 1,000 Praetorian Guards on fire during this journey, and no matter where they went, they were all facing a burning man screaming and rushing over, colliding with each other and squeezing each other, and countless people had fallen forever before they could rush out of the sea of fire, and the fire continued to burn, making a zila zila sound, and the scorching smell of barbecue human flesh gushed into the nose, which was disgusting!
A large number of horses clashed even more frantically, broke the reins, and under the violent twisting, they had already thrown the knight to the ground, and ran out with a neighing death!
Shen Ruhu looked up to the sky and sighed! With tears in his eyes, he shouted: "Archers, one team to defend the roofs on both sides, and the second team, shoot!" As he spoke, he first drew out the big knife at his waist and slashed it down, cutting off a fire man Praetorian Guard who was struggling in the fire! The archers at the head and tail suddenly realized, half of them raised their bows and arrows diagonally to the roofs on both sides, and the other half of the people had tears in their eyes, and the arrows shot at their original comrades in the fire like a dense rain, regardless of men and horses, all those who were in the flames were burning!
The people on the roof wanted to continue to organize a sneak attack, so that the Chengtian Praetorian Guard would suffer another big loss, but seeing that Shen Ruhu was so quick to react and dispatched well, he couldn't help but sigh, and immediately shouted: "Withdraw!" With an order, hundreds of people on the rooftops on both sides of the roof withdrew without a trace in an instant!
Shen Ruhu knew that if he allowed these burning comrades to rush out, his 16,000 Praetorian Guards would be in chaos and completely dispersed by these people! At that time, there would be no combat strength at all, and if the Ling family had a few more teams of men and horses to occupy the favorable terrain to attack, I was afraid that his own people would be wiped out! Therefore, he immediately made a decision and immediately ordered to shoot all these men who were on fire, which was really a helpless move! But it also avoided greater losses from the attack!
But from this point, it can also be seen that Shen Ruhu's ruthless methods and decisive ability to make decisions on the spot are really worthy of being a famous general who has been on the battlefield for decades!
Then, under Shen Ruhu's order, hundreds of Praetorian Guards quickly rushed into the houses on both sides, and in a moment, they saw a thick wall fall down and press into the fire, and the fire that soared into the sky was suddenly stagnant!
By the time the fire was completely extinguished, the street had already become a terrible ruin! The high mud wall in the middle almost turned into a hill, and a huge tomb was suddenly built on the flat ground! Shen Ruhu and Long Xiang were on one side of the hill, and the other was on the other side of the hill, their cheeks were scorched black, and their eyes were full of tears without tears!
The incomparably elite Praetorian Guards actually suffered no less than 2,000 casualties as a result of this inexplicable attack! As for the momentum like a rainbow when they set off, there was nothing at all now! Everyone and the horses bowed their heads silently and hung their heads! It turned out that the Ling family had already been waiting for a long time! This thought suddenly poured into everyone's mind, and everyone's heart was cold.
The Heavenly Sword Divine Soldiers led by Yang Kongqun were even more miserable, along the way, it was not inexplicably suddenly poured black oil and burned once, as for the inexplicable attack, there were no less than seven or eight attacks!
Countless throwing knives and arrows were fired fiercely from the rooftops of houses, from trees, or from street entrances, and almost every step forward cost more than a dozen lives! What was even more outrageous was that when we walked close to Ling's Mansion forty or fifty zhang, sharp arrows suddenly shot out like rain from the houses on both sides, and before they could make a counter-attack, the high wall had already collapsed with a bang! The few people in the front, even men and horses, smashed down below, blocking the way even more tightly!
Yang Kongqun was furious and ordered a search, but as he had done a few times before, he didn't even see a ghost! It was as if this private house had been transformed into a Yama Death Domain! It was quietly filled with an eerie atmosphere!
After all kinds of twists and turns, the two groups of people finally met in victory in front of the gate of the Ling Mansion! They looked at each other's embarrassed appearances, and they both saw the intense humiliation and deep murder in each other's eyes!
The Ling Mansion has now been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside! The black and bright arrows in the hands of countless archers are aimed at every direction of the Ling Mansion!, but unexpectedly, the Ling Mansion is like an ancient beast that is still sleeping, standing quietly in front of everyone's eyes, unaware of the changes in the outside world, the fangs and sharp teeth around it, and there is no reaction at all!
On the way here, they encountered the all-pervasive resistance of the Ling Mansion, and the hearts of the people are still lingering! When they got to the ground, they saw such a strange appearance again, and everyone couldn't help but feel uneasy in their hearts! Ling Mansion, what kind of reputation are you doing in the Ling family?
