Chapter 362: The Sword of Death, a Deceitful Plan
Bao Daoyi, a native of Wuzhou in eastern Zhejiang, once became a monk in the south of Longmen Mountain in the Yangtze River, and was called Lingyingzi.
Good at using swords, so that the Longmen faction swordsmanship, the little master martial arts, because there is a treasure called the Xuantian mixed yuan sword, so it is also called the sword mixed yuan by the rivers and lakes.
The name of the sword mixed element is extraordinary, and it means a sword mixed element.
There are very few people who use swords in the Central Plains Ming Sect, and the great sect leaders such as Fang La, Fang Qifo, and Wang Lao Buddha do not use swords.
And like Chen Fan, Fang Nineteen, and Fang Baihua, they don't use swords.
Therefore, Bao Daoyi is the highest swordsmanship in the Central Plains Mingjiao, and his self-esteem is also high, he fought all over the green forests of the two Zhejiang lakes with a sword, and it is indeed rare to meet opponents, if he encounters the same sword, he has never been defeated.
He is the martial arts of a little grandmaster, and with the treasure soldiers in his hands, he has the confidence to be as long as an ordinary grandmaster.
At this moment, in the face of Zhao Ta and the chasing soldiers and horses, he asked Fang Qifo to go first, on the one hand, he was loyal to Mingjiao, and on the other hand, Fang Qifo also had treasure soldiers in his hands, but he could open the passage out of the city under the water first, as long as they resisted for a while, they could also directly jump into the water to escape from Jiangning.
At this time, he held the Xuantian Mixed Yuan Sword, pinched a sword trick, and wanted to stab Li Fei at the right of light.
He was not convinced by Li Fei's identity as a bright envoy, after all, he had never seen Li Fei make a move, and he didn't know how martial arts were, but he was in a high position, where could he be convinced?
A few Mingjiao people beside him also thought the same way, so when they saw him make a solo move, they didn't stop him, but just cautiously shot down the arrows shot by those soldiers into the water on the bank of the river, preventing anyone from jumping into the river to prevent Fang Qifo from opening an underwater passage.
Zhao Ta saw Bao Daoyi's movements, his face was cold, he was anxious at this time, after all, this was the best time to kill Fang Qifo, if the other party was allowed to escape from the city, whether there would be such an opportunity in the future, not to mention, even if there were hundreds of thousands of thieves outside and Fang Qifo to continue to preside, the siege of Jiangning would still be difficult to solve for a while.
At this time, he had the Mo Evil Sword in his hand, and he didn't care about the subtle sword moves of Bread Dao Yi at all, but directly urged the Divine Transformation Method, and flashed over like a ghost, and then the Mo Evil Sword in his palm was like a ray of light, and it stabbed towards Bao Daoyi's ribs and chest.
The speed of this sword is indescribable, the angle is so awkward, it can't be dodged at all, as if it appeared in the void, slush claws, antelope hanging horns, and there was no trace.
Deadly sword, this is Li Zhu's life-killing sword.
It is the essence of swordsmanship of a generation of kendo master Li Zhu throughout his life, and the true meaning of the sword for half a lifetime.
The sword weapon is sharp, which often makes the person who uses the sword an inch higher than the same realm, and the achievement of the grandmaster with the sword is more ruthless than the person in the same realm.
But this is not Li Zhu's life-killing sword technique, because although this sword is similar to a life-killing sword, and the god is also like a life-killing sword, Li Zhu's life-killing ten swords do not have this move!
When Zhao Ta faced Li Zhu and took the ten swords, Li Zhu did not use the sword in front of him, and this sword seemed to be faster than the ten swords, and it was even more impossible to resist.
Bao Daoyi's face changed dramatically in an instant, but that's the end of it, his expression stayed at this moment forever!
The Xuantian Mixed Yuan Sword in his hand fell to the ground with a "snap", and then half of his body flew up directly and fell into the Qinhuai River, blood splattered, like blood raining.
One sword slashes the little grandmaster, one sword slashes the little kendo master holding the treasure soldier, and even this little grandmaster didn't even have the action to resist and dodge, but between the changes in his expression, he was directly killed!
Eleven Swords of Death, this is the eleventh sword of the Death Sword Technique!
Li Zhu's deduction of the Deadly Sword did not reach the extreme, and he only created half of the eleventh sword, and he didn't even use it in front of Zhao Ta.
But Zhao Ta and Huang Gu guessed that Li Zhu must have the eleventh sword, and the two once discussed, Zhao Ta meant that the eleventh sword would continue to pursue the limit of speed, but Huang Gu said that the life-killing sword had reached the tenth sword, and the speed had reached its peak, and it was difficult to get up to the fraction, so the eleventh sword should seek the subtlety of the trick.
In fact, Huang Gu was not wrong, Li Zhu's tenth sword had actually reached the peak of the speed of a sword weapon, and it was extremely difficult to get a star and a half faster.
The weapon is an extension of the arm, and because of the special shape of the sword, it is often faster than other blades when it takes the initiative to attack, and in addition to this, it is to control the swordsman himself.
The movements of people's arms and wrists, as well as the movement of the body, all affect the speed of the sword, but these cannot be endlessly amplified to amplify the speed of the sword, because the human body also has a limit.
Huang Gu took this limit into account, so he thought that the speed of the tenth sword had reached the end, and the next step was to make the tricks more subtle, this idea was not wrong, it was the most simple truth in martial arts, and it was positive.
And Zhao Ta is different, he has a strange body method that is ever-changing, and he has the martial art of breaking the limits of his body, so he can continue to pursue the speed of the eleventh sword, but this is something that most people can't do, which is surprising.
As for Li Zhu's real eleventh sword, whether it is a way to continue to go fast, or a subtle trick, but no one knows, the two of them have created different eleventh swords on the basis of the first ten swords, all of them are not wrong, they are still the essence of the original life-killing sword, as for which is better or worse, it is the benevolent who sees the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.
Zhao Ta slashed Bao Daoyi with a sword, ignoring the shock of the others, and killed all the people of the Mingjiao in the vicinity with a sliding footstep, and as for the few by the river, they were also killed by Du Yan.
At this time, there was movement on the water surface again, but it was away from the protection of the wooden fence, forming a circle of ripples at the iron gate in front, obviously Fang Qifo passed the first protection, Zhao Ta couldn't wait at the moment, raised his foot and kicked the Xuantian Mixed Yuan Sword dropped by Bao Daoyi on the ground, and rushed to the shore.
His eyes stared at the iron gate in the water, watching the ripples gradually disappear, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and the Xuantian Mixed Yuan Sword in his hand shot out violently, heading straight to the water, with a "poof" sound, the sword was submerged in a red light, and then there was no movement.
Seeing this, Zhao Ta frowned and shouted, "Shoot arrows in that direction!" ”
The soldiers behind rushed forward and drew their bows and shot arrows into the water.
Du Yan was about to take off his armor and go into the water, but Zhao Ta shook his head to stop: "Don't go down, no one underwater is Fang Qifo's opponent!" ”
Even if Fang Qifo is a grandmaster on the shore, with Zhao Tan's special martial arts, he can also compete with him, but when he goes underwater, his divine skills are varied, life-killing swordsmanship, heavenly silk, pseudo-sundial needle, etc., these martial arts are almost useless, and he can't be Fang Qifo's opponent, let alone Du Yan.
Hearing this, Du Yan hurriedly said: "Lord, that ......"
Zhao Ta frowned and stretched out his hand behind him: "Bring all the spears!" ”
The soldiers behind him who were holding spears immediately sent a few of them, and Zhao Ta's eyes continued to stare at the water.
Because of the weight of the arrow, the target will disappear when it enters the water, not to mention, even if the strength will be sharply reduced, but the gun is better, after all, the weight is greater, and the gun path is longer than the arrow path, and the accuracy is not easy to change.
The river bank here is wider, the wooden fence is in front of the city cave, and the iron gate is in the city cave, and this closed iron gate is heavy, even if there are treasure soldiers under the water, they may not be able to cut the opening immediately, and most of them have to come up for ventilation.
Zhao Ta's eyes did not leave the door, and suddenly saw a few bubbles suddenly appear on the water, and the spear in his hand was thrown out without hesitation!
According to his current strength, not to mention a person under this shot, even if it is a big insect leopard, as long as it is shot, it will definitely die, just see that the spear disappeared immediately after hitting the faint splash, and the bubbles that emerged from the water just now were gone.
Zhao Ta fired five or six more shots in succession, and there was no movement in the water, but a few guns slowly floated up.
These spears are all wooden rods and iron heads, although they are heavy enough, but after all, there is more wood than iron, and they will always surface.
He counted, one less! Count it carefully, and it's still one less! How could there be one less?
At this moment, by the moonlight of the torches, he could vaguely see that the color of a water surface under the iron gate was a little dark, Zhao Ta took a sharp breath and said, "Is it blood?" ”
Next to him, Du Yan said in a low voice: "Lord Wang, it should be blood, you see that the color is still dissipating, Fang Qifo must be injured!" ”
Zhao Ta frowned, even if a gun was shot, it couldn't be concluded that it didn't hit the other party's vital point, where would a person like Fang Qifo die easily!
Thinking about it from another perspective, he may be able to hurt him underwater and on the shore, but it is impossible to kill his own family so easily.
It's just that Zhao Ta has no other way now, but to continue to order the arrows to be released, and then a few more spears are fired.
There was no movement on the surface of the water, only the sound of "swish" feather arrows entering the water, but just after more than a dozen breaths, suddenly the iron door trembled, and Zhao Ta suddenly screamed badly, and then heard a faint impact sound, this sound came from the iron door, but it was on the other side!
Fang Qi Buddha has passed!
Zhao Ta's eyebrows raised, Du Yan next to him was full of shock, Du Yan also thought about the way to get through this iron gate in his heart, it was extremely difficult, he didn't expect Fang Qi Buddha to really pass!
There is also a huge stone lock on the side of the iron gate, but the stone gate is only set up to block the enemy ships from entering the city, not a whole boulder, but several large stones of thousands of catties built together, and the water gate is not tightly connected at all.
That gap is extremely difficult for a normal person to pass through, but it is difficult to say to a master like Fang Qi Buddha who can change the firmament, Zhao Tan is also on the sixth road, so he naturally knows how beneficial it is to practice to this level of firmament transformation, and Fang Qi Buddha is very likely to escape from the crack in the stone.
Moreover, in order to drain the water gate, there are stone pillars left under the stone gate, which are no more than the lattice iron fence under the iron gate, these stone pillars are wider than the iron gate, and the Fang Qi Buddha can also rely on the sky to escape!
Thinking of this, Zhao Ta's face was extremely ugly, although he didn't know how Fang Qifo's injuries were, but no matter how severe it was, it was not difficult to pass through this stone gate.
The iron gate in front of it was closed, and more than a dozen wrist-thick iron chains were tightly wrapped around it, and it was locked with a big lock, and as for the key, there were not even soldiers guarding the water gate, all of them were in the Xuanfu Division.
Zhao Ta was anxious, and immediately turned around and grabbed the bow and arrow from the person behind him and carried it on his back, and then jumped into a small boat on the shore in a few steps, and Du Yan and Zhang Xian hurriedly jumped over.
Zhao Ta kicked the boat pile, the boat "swished" and rushed to the iron gate, to the iron gate he stretched out his hand to the iron door to borrow force, the body went up directly, he put one hand on a convex place above the water gate hole, the other hand pulled out the Mo evil sword, and stabbed towards the hole above the iron gate.
The iron gate was heavy, and even if the Mo Evil Sword was invincible, he was afraid that the sword would be broken, so he planned to destroy the cave wall and watch the situation on the other side.
Just a few swords went down, and a hole was dug out of the wall, and Zhao Ta looked inward with a side face, but it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything.
It turned out that there was a stone gate on that side of the water gate, and an iron gate on this side, so there was not much light at all, and now it was late at night, even if the eyesight was good, it was impossible to see the scene inside.
Zhao Ta was expressionless, closed his eyes slightly and listened carefully, but after a few breaths, he suddenly quickly took off his bow and arrow, hung his body diagonally between the iron doors of the cave wall, took the bow and led the arrows, and the three white feathers shot out together, passing through the hole!
But there was no movement in it, and he gritted his teeth, and took out the remaining seven or eight arrows, all of which were embedded in the strings, and then the bow was drawn like a full moon, and the white feathers burst through the air and pierced through the hole again.
At this moment, there was a very light muffled snort from inside, Zhao Ta was immediately overjoyed, but the next "poof" sound made his expression immediately turn blue, he heard it clearly, this poofing sound was not from the inside, but from the outside, from the side of the stone gate, the sound was heavy and frustrating, and it was clear that something had fallen into the river outside.
Zhao Ta was silent for a long time between the cave walls and jumped back into the boat.
His last few arrows must have hit Fang Qi Buddha, and it was definitely not light, otherwise with Fang Qi Buddha's martial arts, it would be impossible to let out a muffled snort.
Fang Qifo was injured by a spear before, and now he was hit by an arrow again, whether he will die Zhao Ta is not sure, but the water flow outside the Qinhuai River is more urgent than that in the city, and after this arrow, he fell into the water, and it is not easy to say where he rushed, if he does not die, whether he can go ashore immediately, it is difficult to say, if Fang Qifo is not able to go ashore......
Zhao Ta's eyes lit up when he thought of this, and he hurriedly retreated to the land, so that the soldiers could find Bao Daoyi's body, and then cut off the head, all the way back to the inner city from the West Gate, and on the way found the armor blade discarded by Fang Qifo, as well as Shi Bao's corpse, which also cut off its head.
After returning to the Xuanfu Division, he dispatched troops and mobilized half of the soldiers defending the city on the north and southeast sides to encircle and suppress the Xicheng bandit army together.
When the sky was about to dawn, the thief army in Xicheng had been completely wiped out, and at this time, Zhao Ta ordered again to gather all the cavalry teams in the city, about 15,000 horsemen, including 10,000 horsemen brought by his own family from Tokyo, and more than 5,000 horsemen from the entire Jiangnan East Road.
He personally put it on, asked people to pick up the heads of Bao Daoyi and Shi Bao in front of him, and stuffed a dead body similar to him in the armor discarded by Fang Qifo, and then erected a big banner and wrote the words "Fang Qifo is dead, Shibao Bao Daoyi's head is here", and then he went out of the city.
At this moment, the soldiers at the head of the city shouted the words on the flag together, and suddenly they spread far away, directly to the other side of the moat.
The thief army waiting to be received on the other side of the moat was already in a hurry, and originally followed the army in front of them into the city, but who expected them to be here, but the jack gate at the city gate fell with a bang.
They didn't know why, so they hurriedly retreated in a panic, and sent people back to the camp to deliver the letter like ants on a hot pot, but the camp had no idea, after all, it was impossible to attack the city at night, and in the end, after discussion, they could only wait for news on the other side.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were displayed on the bank of the river, all of whom were anxious, just hoping for dawn to find out the situation, but at this time, as soon as the sky was bright, they heard the Song army at the head of Jiangning City shouting, "Fang Qifo is dead, and the head of Shibao Baodao B is here!" ”
They were suddenly shocked, and saw the Jiangning City Gate open, and the iron armor rushed out like a torrent, and the spearman in front of them was still carrying two heads, as well as an armor-piercing corpse.
The head has sharp eyes to see clearly, but it is the head of Shi Bao and Bao Daoyi, as for the armor-piercing corpse is more familiar, isn't it the handsome Fang Qifo? The armor was seized from the treasury of Yuezhou, and it is said to be the deputy armor, as well as the treasure knife, which is a set of armor!
They immediately panicked, at this time, Jiangning City shouted together in the city, the sound of iron hooves "rumbled", many of them wanted to turn around and run away, and the generals who led the team were also dumbfounded, the marshal and the general vanguard were dead, how can this battle be fought?
Seeing that the other party was all ironclad cavalry, the sound of weapons and armor rubbing "crunch, crunch" was deafening, and he couldn't help but lose the mind to fight, and the general led by hurriedly ordered: "Retreat, all retreat!" ”
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses turned around and began to run towards the camp behind......
