Chapter 346: State Envoy

If Su Qi'an's physical evidence can still make the Qingcheng County Guard grit his teeth and hold on, then the two fierce stealing of the house can be regarded as destroying the last hope of the Qingcheng County Guard.

He never thought that he would lose to Su Qi'an so completely, everything he did was under Su Qi'an's control.

Sometimes I wonder if it would have been a different outcome if we had done what the high priest had said.

Qingcheng County Shou's face was gloomy, and his flashing gaze inadvertently met the high priest's gaze.

The high priest instantly understood, and after a short silence between the two sides, the next moment, the high priest instantly burst out and gave an order.

"Give *** the surname Su, if you want to live, take him down for me!"

The sound with murderous intent resounded in the square square, and then, the two kicked over the tea table in front of the game, and their bodies quickly retreated.

The soldiers in the rear quickly stepped forward and protected them with shields.

This move seems to be very slow, but in fact it is only a few breaths, and the action can be described as a one-stop.

By the time the soldiers behind Su Qi'an reacted, the Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest had already been protected by layers of shields.

Looking at their neat appearance, presumably this action has not been practiced, and the soldiers who stood on the commanding heights of the square square immediately came back to their senses, and the bows and crossbows in their hands aimed at Su Qi'an early.

Under the compassionate gaze of the Qingcheng County guard, the soldier holding the bow and crossbow did not hesitate and immediately released the arrow.

These people are all the henchmen of the Qingcheng County Guard, and they are very aware of the current situation, and only by taking down and killing Su Qi'an can they have the right to live.

The dense arrow feathers came overwhelmingly, and at this time, Song Biao and the others, who were standing behind Su Qi'an, had already taken action.

Threw a dozen black beads directly at the ground, bam! Bang! Bang!

A slight explosion sounded, and then with Su Qi'an as the center, bursts of black smoke rose from the ground.

The smoke filled the air, instantly covering a quarter of the square square, and the soldiers standing on the commanding heights, the bows and crossbows in their hands stopped moving.

The scope of the smoke was too wide, and in the end, it actually covered the location of the high priest and the Qingcheng county guard, and these soldiers did not dare to do it at all, for fear of hurting their own people.

These smoke bombs were not made by Su Qi'an, but were found from the corpses of his group in the last fight with the King of Thousand Faces.

This thing, for an assassin killer walking in the dark, is almost a must-have, but I didn't expect it to play a role today.

The diffused smoke continued, and the soldiers occupying the commanding heights did not dare to move, but Su Qi'an's first regiment in the rear had already begun to counterattack.

Although their terrain is not good and they are at a disadvantage, they do not rely on the terrain to fight, but mainly on the morale of the soldiers and the courage to not fear death.

The shield bearer was at the front for the first time, and the crossbowmen in the rear quickly launched a counterattack, and the arrows of both sides were fired.

The rest of the infantry, in the form of squads and platoons, were scattered, the terrain was not dominant, and if they were all gathered together, they would not become live targets.

What's more, they rushed directly into the smoke, and the thief captured the king first, anyway, in the smoke, no one could see it, there was chaos, so it was better to take advantage of the chaos to fight.

If you can catch the Qingcheng county guard, the high priest, and the soldiers on the city wall, they will definitely throw their weapons and put down their weapons, and this battle will definitely be solved.

The soldiers of several platoons of the 1st Regiment, regardless of life and death, rushed directly into the smoke.

In order to reduce the pressure on those who rushed into the smoke, the 1st Regiment, which was counterattacking outside, immediately divided the strength of a battalion, divided into three directions, and each with a company of soldiers, unexpectedly withstood the arrows and feathers, and forcibly climbed the city wall.

The faces of the soldiers who occupied the commanding heights of the city wall changed greatly, because their climbing tools were not only the so-called long rope iron claws, but the siege ladders.

It's just that this ladder is a bit rudimentary compared to the real ladder, and it doesn't fix the wheels, but is a simple tool for climbing the wall.

The point is that this ladder is still disassembleable and assembled, and this is the first time they have seen this thing.

The speed of assembly is also very fast, less than half a cup of tea,

Once assembled, under the cover of the shield bearer, the attack began.

Although rudimentary, the effect was too obvious compared to the long rope iron claws, and at a speed visible to the naked eye, some soldiers slowly climbed up the walls.

All this is inseparable from the credit of the R&D department, this detachable, portable siege ladder can be assembled with only one platoon of soldiers.

Quick to assemble and sturdy in quality, it is an excellent helper for climbing the city walls, and of course this detachable ladder is not without its drawbacks.

The biggest disadvantage is that there is no cover, relying entirely on the courage of the soldiers who are not afraid of death, and climbing up as fast as possible with the arrow feathers on their heads.

If you encounter a well-prepared, or even impregnable tight defense, this kind of strong attack is similar to a live target, so generally speaking, it is only suitable for night sneak attacks, not for siege warfare.

But right now, the group of soldiers they encountered were not those experienced battlefield veterans.

Looking at the first regiments that were not afraid of death, forcibly attacked the city, and even counterattacked, they were obviously a little in a hurry.

Although for now, he can still stabilize the situation with the advantage of terrain, but as time passes, they know that this advantage will disappear at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.

If they were just dealing with Su Qi'an's first regiment, given some time, they should be able to stabilize the situation.

But with the fierce battle in the square square, it didn't take long for Su Yong, Tong Zhan and other rioting civilians gathered together on the periphery of the square to also attack.

On the periphery of the square square, only the two thousand natives of the high priest were left to resist, which was the last line of defense.

The strength of the two thousand elite natives is strong, but in the face of the 20,000 rioting low-level civilians, it is not an exaggeration to say that every spittle per capita has to spray them to death.

The current county town, at least seventy or eighty percent, fell into the hands of Su Yong and Tong Zhan, and with the battle in the square square, the entire county began to be chaotic.

The soldiers who occupied the commanding heights, although they tried their best to fight back, their hearts were panicked.

Their backbone, the Qingcheng County Guard, and the High Priest didn't know what was going on, and they looked at the Dongshan Army, which was constantly approaching, and was already less than a zhang away.

Without waiting for them to react, the soldiers of the Dongshan Army, who were about to climb the wall, were quick with their hands and eyes, and threw a dagger in their hands, ending the life of one person instantly.

The next moment, he jumped and went directly to the city wall, and the soldiers in the city wall quickly surrounded him, this Dongshan soldier was invincible with two fists and four hands, and after killing two or three people, he was still defeated.

But his death provided time for the other Dongshan troops who followed up on the wall.

Gradually, on the city wall, more and more Dongshan troops rushed up, and the attacks of arrow feathers were obviously much less.

For a time, the balance of victory gradually tilted, the soldiers on both sides of the city wall fought fiercely, and the smoke-filled square square, gradually the smoke dissipated, and the figures inside were gradually revealed.

On the square, there were corpses lying on the ground, including those of the Dongshan Army and the subordinates of the Qingcheng County Guard, and at a cursory glance, the battle loss ratio of the two sides was not much different.

At this time, both sides, whether it was Su Qi'an or Qingcheng County Guard, were protected by a team of soldiers.

It's just that judging from the number, the number of people guarding Qingcheng County is obviously less than Su Qi'an, and the people around him are now less than forty or fifty.

This team of soldiers is the personal guard of Qingcheng County, and compared with ordinary soldiers, their strength is several grades higher.

Although the number of soldiers was not superior, the faces of this group of soldiers were fierce, and the armor on their bodies was covered with blood, but none of them had the intention of retreating.

The Qingcheng County Guard, who was protected in the middle, looked down at his injured shoulder.

In the smoke just now, a group of Dongshan troops suddenly rushed out, if it weren't for his hundreds of personal guards, fighting for their lives, I'm afraid he would have to explain here today.

Although he saved his life, the face of the Qingcheng county guard was not a little relaxed, and as the smoke dissipated, the Dongshan army in the rear, except for half of the upper wall, fought fiercely with his soldiers.

The rest of the people had already surrounded him, whether it was on the city wall or outside the square, and the scales of victory had already gone away towards him.

thought that taking advantage of the chaos, under the protection of his personal guards, there would be hope to escape.

But now it seems that Su Qi'an's Dongshan Army is a group of lords who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to leave here alive today.

The Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest glanced at each other, and the palms of the two were gently placed on their waists and abdomen, holding something, and their eyes revealed the meaning of ending up together.

As the battle outside the square and on the city wall gradually subsided, the chaos in the county town was over, and the two were ready to fight for their lives.

Suddenly, without warning, several rapid arrows exploded in the sky.

The shrill sound resounded, and the whole county town could hear it clearly, and then the sound of horses' hooves quickly approached.

Listening to the movement, the number of people who came was not small, looking at this scene, the faces of the county guard and the high priest of Qingcheng instantly surged with deep excitement, as if the arrow just now was their savior.

Su Qi'an frowned slightly, looked at the entrance of the square, and after a while, before anyone arrived, a high-pitched voice came instantly.

"The Governor of Chuanzhou ordered, the Marquis of Dongshan, the county guard of Qingcheng, and the high priest, stop fighting immediately! Gather the army, withdraw from the county, Qingcheng county security and defense, by the state envoy to take over, the grievances between the two sides, coordinated by the state envoy, there must be no friction during the period, if there is any violation, severe punishment will not be granted!"

Immediately afterwards, a large group of figures on horseback entered the square in a mighty manner.

There were at least 2,000 of these people, and the originally huge square square seemed a little crowded as the forces of the three parties gathered.

These soldiers are all from the state city, and the soldiers don't say a word, but that kind of momentum is obviously several grades higher than the soldiers in the county town.

This was not the focus of Su Qi'an's attention, his gaze fell on the figure at the head who was wrapped in a black robe.

This man sat on horseback, giving people a sense of not being angry and arrogant, compared to this man is the so-called state envoy.

But what kind of official is the state envoy? In the Daliang Prefectures, he really hadn't heard of the official position of state envoy.

If he was not an official, but the people around him, along with the Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest, looked at him, and there was a little fear in their eyes.

This state envoy must have come from a lot of things.
