Chapter 276: The Flames of War Begins (I)
This time, before he had time to think, he had already seen a man in black holding a sharp weapon and attacking the nearest person.
Shen Shifang completely destroyed their psychological defenses, thus reducing their combat effectiveness a lot.
He trampled on the snow and sought plums, had thorny clouds in his hands, and had a thousand strikes combat skills, facing a few small martial artists who only had spiritual sense, and the highest was the first spirit double, Shen Shifang was crushing and slaughtering.
With a wave of his hand, a single movement took the life of a person, and in less than ten breaths, only six corpses remained on the ground.
Shen Shifang's hands were dripping with blood, and he was very uncomfortable looking at these guards.
"I'm killing again. ”
After muttering to himself, Shen Shifang shook his head to make himself sober.
Then, he stripped off the armor of the three guards and took all three knives into his pocket. After that, he took out the oil and poured it on the grains, and he took out another fire fold, and threw it away, and the flames gradually rose.
He did not hesitate and resolutely took the door.
As soon as they went out, they happened to see Xiao Yang and Lian Kongling also come out, the three of them glanced at each other, nodded, and retreated.
When they reached the front courtyard, at a corner, Shen Shifang made a gesture to stop.
I saw another six-person squad patrolling, and their direction was the granary behind.
This is not good, if they see it, not to mention the failure, they will startle the snake and put the three of them on the verge of danger.
Shen Shifang made a decisive move, first twisting the neck of one of the patrol soldiers, and then quickly elbowed the nose of the other soldier, and blood immediately covered the latter's face.
Before it was over, Shen Shifang turned around and smashed a heavy fist into his throat, making him unable to make a sound and falling down on his stomach.
After that, Shen Shifang shook his hand, and Thorn Cloud left his hand, and in the blink of an eye, it was already on the throat of the third guard.
Shen Shifang turned his head and saw that Lian Kongling was alone in one hand, pinching the throats of the two guards.
The two guards tilted their heads and lost their lives.
And Xiao Yang Yu relied on the Xiaocheng realm of stepping on the snow to find plums, and his speed was not slow, and a whip leg made the head of the last guard like a watermelon that exploded.
Shen Shifang retrieved the thorn cloud, and worked with Liankong Ling to drag the dead body back to the shadows, and the night wind blew away the smell of blood, which made Xiao Yang rub his nose and dislike it.
It's all silent, one-hit, and it's the perfect assassination.
Shen Shifang probed his brain left and right, and until he didn't see anyone, he and Lian Kongling and Xiao Yang came out of the wall.
At this time, the fire was getting stronger and stronger, and there were already bursts of gunpowder smoke filling the air, slowly rising.
The guard at the door was still standing listless, unaware that just behind the door, something had happened enough to move their heads.
Shen Shifang and the three of them ran wildly all the way, and when they came to a dark place, he stopped and took out the armor that Shi Cai had taken off.
"Quick, put on your armor. ”
Shen Shifang said as he moved his hand and put the armor on his body.
Even Kong Ling immediately understood, and quickly changed with Xiao Yang.
In the middle of breathing, the three of them had changed their appearances, no different from ordinary soldiers.
Shen Shifang looked in the direction of the granary, and the firelight had already reached the sky, and it could be seen dozens of miles away.
"Now, I estimate that the rebels in Xique City have been in chaos, so let's take advantage of the chaos to go to the city gate and look for an opportunity to open the city gate. Shen Shifang was still looking in the direction of the granary.
Lian Kongling said with a smile: "What a move, let's fish in troubled waters." ”
Shen Shifang said: "Let's go! Be careful, don't be exposed." ”
Along the way, the three of them walked towards Chengguan.
At the same time, Su Mu Gaozhuo's heart sank in the Assassin's Mansion, and when he saw the army pressing the border, he couldn't wait for everyone to put on armor and go into battle.
But at such a juncture, the granary caught fire, which made him very angry, and directly ordered the guard at the door to be beheaded.
"Send a thousand auxiliaries back
Firefighting, if delayed. Su Mu Gaozhuo paused, his gaze over to several captains, "You guys...... All heads fall to the ground. ”
"Yes, my subordinates will go. ”
Su Mu Gao Zhuo snorted coldly, and the green tendons in his hands burst out.
Without food, how can he take the throne?
Su Mu Honghuan said: "Second Emperor Brother, you say, who set the fire?"
Su Mu Gaozhuo said coldly: "No matter who it is, order the government to allocate manpower, and if you see someone with suspicious deeds, take it down immediately." ”
He couldn't figure it out, he couldn't figure out that he had locked down the city a long time ago, and if it weren't for military affairs, no one would be able to enter or exit at all.
Then, this has little to do with Su Muxin.
"Are they just some people? or people in the rivers and lakes. Su Mu Honghuan seemed to see through Su Mu Gaozhuo's thoughts, and he said: "The guards of the granary were all killed by someone with one move, and most of them did not have a second wound, indicating that the person who set the fire was strong in martial arts and was a Jianghu person." ”
Su Mu Gaozhuo's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "Could it be Tiansha?"
This is the only Jianghu person he can think of.
Su Muhong was empowered and said, "It's very likely, but where did he come from?"
Su Mu Gaozhuo couldn't figure it out either, and said: "No matter who it is at the moment, in short, we must guard Xique City and wait for news from Bao Hongyou." ”
It's just that Su Mu Gaozhuo didn't know that Bao Hongyou was restrained by Fu Instant, and soon he couldn't protect himself.
"Don't worry, there is an old man, no matter whether the heavens are demons or immortals, don't think about acting arbitrarily. ”
It was a man in black behind Su Mu Gaozhuo who spoke, and there were several men in black who looked like subordinates next to him.
Su Mu Gaozhuo nodded and said, "You and Honghuan will go to guard the city, I'm afraid that Bai You won't be able to defend it." ”
The man in black nodded, and was about to leave, when a soldier hurried in.
"Report~, they are attacking the city!"
Su Mu Gaozhuo stood up abruptly and roared angrily, "What? They dare to attack in the dark?"
But no, it is taboo to attack the city in the dark, and few people dare to do it.
Su Mu Honghuan said: "Without further ado, let's go to supervise the battle first." ”
Su Mu Gaozhuo waved his hand and said, "Go ahead!"
In the formation of the army to the west.
Su Muxin didn't actually attack the city, at least not let the soldiers charge.
He just asked the catapult to test the landing point and see what the distance was.
But at this time, he had already seen the bright fire in the sky reflected in the city, so he directly ordered the stone throwing to attack.
The catapults were within distance of the bow and arrows, so they didn't have to worry about being counterattacked, so they fought happily.
I don't worry that the rebels will go out of the city to face the battle, it's better to come out, and it saves a lot of trouble.
At this time, the sky gradually brightened.
Xuan Yi was in front of Su Muxin, and he said, "Shield Halberd Array, move forward." ”
With that, the commander next to him waved his flag and the drums burst out. The shield array of the pioneer battalion, led by the head of the capital, slowly moved forward.
When he was about to reach the range of the rebels' bows and arrows, Xuan Yi ordered again, saying, "Bow and arrow array, lean forward, shield guard." ”
"Knock, knock, knock!" a rhythmic drum beat sounded.
The archers pushed forward in cats, coming to the back of the shield array.
Immediately after that, the shield array and the bow array advanced again until they were within range.
Xuan Yi waved a small flag and said, "Siege camp, pioneer camp, prepare the left and right wings." ”
The siege camp was brought by Du Zhan, and there were 5,000 of them. Long before, Du Zhan had promised that the first 100 who rushed into the city and killed ten enemies would be rewarded with a bounty and silver, and the marquis would be promoted.
Moreover, once the war starts, those who dare to turn back without an order will be killed.
Because, there is a group of people who specialize in supervising the war.
In the face of such generous interests, coupled with strong laws and regulations, how can the soldiers of the siege camp not fight hard? Therefore, they know that the one who rushes forward first is the most dangerous.
Also desperate to rush up.
The siege camp and the vanguard camp are on standby on the left and right sides, and there are ten ladders and thirty planks for crossing the river on the side of the siege camp, which will be used for siege.
Xuan Yi said: "Archers prepare, release!"
The drums sounded, the archers opened their bows and arrows in unison, and under the order of the capital, after the arc of thousands of bows and arrows passed, they fell densely towards Xique City, like black clouds pressing down on the city, making people breathe rapidly.
Great!
At this time, it was dawn.
The rebels defending the city reacted and hurriedly hid under the city wall, not daring to show their heads.
But after all, many people still died under the dense bow and arrow, and they kept wailing.
After ten rounds of bow and arrow strikes, Xuan Yi ordered again: "Prepare for throwing stones." ”
After that, he glanced at Xue Feixian and the others.
Xue Feixian held a heavy special shield, stood with Du Zhan and Wang Erdao, and when he heard Xuan Yi's order, he walked to the trebuchet.
"Deputy Commander Xue. Xuan Yi shouted.
Xue Fei looked back and said with a smile, "What does General Xuan Yi command?"
Xuan Yi looked serious and said, "Take care." ”
He knew it was a very risky thing to do. It is not yet known whether it can be thrown into the city, but once it is in the city, it will face tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.
This trip can be regarded as a life of nine deaths.
Xue Fei smiled and said, "Thank you, I understand." ”
After saying that, Xue Feixian's eyes were extremely cold, and he walked towards the catapult without stopping.
And the catapult has already begun to be launched, and the huge stones continue to hit the city walls, towers, and city walls, and a few of them have smashed on the rebels defending the city, turning directly into meat sauce.
The rebels at the head of the city were in a mess, which made Bai You angry, and the archers hurriedly fought back.
However, the bow and arrow could not be shot at all by the soldiers who controlled the trebuchet, and could only land on the shield of the shield array, stirring up sporadic sparks, and then there was no follow-up.
Soon, in the last round of the trebuchet, the soldiers carried the spherical shield that Xue Fei was hiding in it onto the catapult, and after a while, they were ready to launch and send the three of them to the city.
"Put!"
At the sound of an order, the trebuchet fired.
Xue Feixian and the three of them tightly grasped the gauntlet inside the shield, preparing for the impact in mid-air.
This spherical shield, because it is transformed, does not rotate like a stone, but is fixed in one direction.
It not only tests the ability of the catapult, but also tests the strength of the people inside.
The rebels defending the city did not notice the strangely shaped stones, and all of them dodged the stones, only the archer showed half of his body.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
After three loud bangs, Xue Feixian and the three of them successfully landed on the city tower.
Without waiting for the rebels defending the city to notice, the three of them broke out of their shells.
Bai You saw Xue Feixian at this time, and his heart was shocked, no matter how much he wanted to break his head, he would never have thought that they would actually climb to the top of the city like this.
As he spoke, the saber at his waist was already unsheathed, pointed at Xue Feixian and the others, and ordered: "Enemy attack, attack!"
As the words fell, the rebels at the head of the city had besieged them.
Xue Feixian said: "General, Wang Erdao, act according to the plan. ”
After all, they have already engaged the rebels.
At the same time, three figures appeared behind the Chengguan of Xique City.
They are the three of Shen Shifang.
Now there is a commotion behind the city head and the city gate, and no one pays attention to them at all, this is Shen Shifang's troubled waters.
Besides, they were dressed in rebel armor, and no one doubted them.
Shen Shifang watched as those auxiliaries and miscellaneous servants were carrying the weapons to defend the city, and some captains were also shouting nervously.
Shen Shifang said, "Are you ready?"
