Chapter 492: Closing the Door and Beating the Dog
In the city of Changzhou, the Blood Moon army drove straight in, Hu Crab led a thousand people to chase and kill a small Tianyang army, Yao Jing and a cadre of soldiers walked scattered, and ran towards the city without looking back, seemingly fleeing in a hurry, but if you look at it from the front, you will find that their faces are as calm as water, without half fear and panic.
The Blood Moon army led by Hu Crab pressed forward step by step, gradually narrowing the distance with Yao Jing and other Tianyang soldiers, and constantly ordered people to release arrows along the way, although most of the arrows were shot and fell to the ground, but there were still a few Tianyang soldiers who were unfortunately hit by arrows.
Blood flowed out, and their lips trembled slightly, as if they were in great pain but suppressed, and they continued to run without saying a word, without slowing down.
This scene made Hu Crab frown: "What's the matter? There are no other Tianyang troops to support this team, could it be that Yang Yan has already abandoned the city and fled, leaving only an empty city?"
This time the pursuit seems reckless, but in fact, His Royal Highness the Thirteenth gave the exact news, the city gate of Changzhou should be opened, this can not be deceitful, and he led all the soldiers and horses of his subordinates to participate in this night attack, and did not do his best in the pursuit, although there are only a thousand people following now, but it is not far from the army behind.
Hu Crab was extremely vigilant along the way, and as soon as there was a rumor, he would immediately stop chasing Yao Jing's team and join the army behind him.
But this Changzhou City seemed to be suddenly empty, except for Yao Jing and those people, he didn't even see a single Tianyang soldier along the way, although he guessed that Yang Yan might have abandoned the city and secretly led the army to escape, but for some reason, he always felt that things should not be so simple.
Changzhou City has been besieged by the Blood Moon Army on all sides, if it is not surprising that a small army took advantage of the dark and unprepared Blood Moon to secretly evacuate, but the Tianyang Army under the command of Yang Yan experienced a bitter battle during the day, and there were still eighty or ninety thousand people, how could it be that they all withdrew unconsciously, leaving only Yao Jing and other remnants of the army to garrison and delay?
Moreover, since Yang Yan has such ability, since he is willing to give up Changzhou City, why didn't he evacuate earlier, but he was trapped in Changzhou and besieged on all sides, and he held on for so many days, but he suddenly gave up and sacrificed so many soldiers in vain?
"Something is wrong, be careful and deceitful!" said a person next to Hu Crab, this person has an extraordinary appearance and outstanding temperament, and he is still better than Hu Crab, obviously not an ordinary sergeant.
"Lord Chen also thinks something is wrong?" Hu Crab's heart was slightly cold, this Chen Yu is the personal guard of His Royal Highness the Thirteenth, his cultivation is much higher than him, he has a wider range of knowledge, and his perception of danger is also more keen, since even he said so, it is obviously not appropriate to continue to chase.
"Stop!" Hu Crab glanced around vigilantly, and waved his hand: "Everyone retreats one after another, converges with the reinforcements, and then sweeps this city." ”
"Why did you go?" at this moment, a faint voice suddenly sounded in the night sky.
The voice was not loud, and there was no coldness, but the thousand Blood Moon soldiers, including Hu Crab, felt their sweat and hairs explode, as if a chill rose from the soles of their feet, rushing straight to their brains, and they all clenched their blades and looked around.
"Who hides his head and tail?" Hu Crab snorted coldly, his voice trembled a little, and at this time, even if he was stupid, he understood that this was a trap.
Chen Yu next to him also had a sinking face, even he didn't find any trace of the person in advance, and even at this time, he couldn't determine where this voice came from, what did it mean?
Ever since he stepped into the Spirit Yuan Realm, he had gradually forgotten what it was like to be flustered, and at this moment, he seemed to feel it again.
"The sky is the sky of the sky, the earth is the land of the sky, the city is the city of the sky, the charm of the ghost, vainly trying to occupy the magpie's nest, and dare to hide the head and tail of the dove?"
Swish!!
Chen Yu, Hu Crab, and the Thousand Blood Moon Warriors turned around and looked behind them almost at the same time, and this time everyone clearly heard the sound coming from behind them, and their violent movements even caused a cold wind to blow in the night sky.
Puff puff......
One, two, and countless torches appeared, and the flickering firelight was connected together, dispelling the night in an instant, making this area as bright as day, and the crabs, Chen Yu, and more than a thousand Blood Moon soldiers were suddenly exposed to the firelight without concealment, and their faces were shocked.
And in the firelight, several figures walked out slowly, the first one, under the reflection of the light, there was still a trace of immature but handsome and extraordinary face slowly appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the eyes that revealed the fierce murderous intent in the indifference were as bright as the scorching sun, shining so that people's hearts trembled......
......
At the north gate of Changzhou City, Heiyan led the crowd to kill the city, but suddenly found that the Tianyang soldiers who were ordered to be stationed had already withdrawn cleanly, and the cracks in the city wall that had been washed by the war were piled up, and the traces of scorching and dried blood all showed that there had been a very tragic war here.
However, the defenders of Tianyang, who had not retreated during the frantic attack of the Blood Moon army at any cost, disappeared without a trace after they opened the city gate and let the Blood Moon army enter the city.
Even if you are tired and slack, even if you are caught off guard, this should never be the result!
"What the hell is going on?" Black Rock led hundreds of people to stand at the head of the empty city, blowing the night breeze with a dazed expression.
Somehow, Hei Yan suddenly felt a little cold, and even a little flustered, but no matter how cold this blowing night wind was, it couldn't invade his strong body under the fourfold cultivation of the Spirit Yuan Realm.
"Let's go!" said Hei Yan with a cold face, and led the crowd to hurriedly descend the city wall and go straight to the north city gate.
At this time, the 70,000-strong army of Hu Crab rolled into the city, and the long line only rushed into less than half of it, and half of it was still outside the city, rushing wildly.
Seeing that Hei Yan led people to rush to the city gate, obviously contrary to the army, many people showed puzzled eyes, but they didn't pay too much attention to it, for them, occupying Changzhou City and making great contributions is the most important thing.
The gates are right in front of you, and the spacing between them is wide enough that there is still a passage between the Blood Moon army and the gate wall that can be passed side by side, so you don't have to worry about being blocked by the Blood Moon soldiers.
However, just as Hei Yan fell down in one step, and his other foot was immediately able to rush out of the city gate, an alarm suddenly roared in his heart, and before he could think about it, the body protector spirit yuan erupted with all his strength, protecting his whole body at the same time, his body suddenly retreated.
The hundreds of people who followed him were directly knocked into the air without preparation, and the worst thing was that the dozen or so people closest to the black rock were hit by him with almost all his strength, and the end can be imagined, the screams were smashed before they could make a single smash of the bones and internal organs of the whole body, and they were desperate on the spot, and one person was knocked into a blood mist, and the corpse was not left.
The sudden change, Hei Yan completely ignored the death of others, and the person who was knocked down or even seriously injured did not have time to complain, a fierce sword aura fell from the sky, quickly and violently falling into the crowd at the city gate, and the air everywhere he passed was wiped out.
In an instant, the terrifying sword intent erupted, and under the sword qi wantonly, countless pieces of flesh and blood flew all over the sky, and there were hundreds of blood moon soldiers wearing armor in this area, and in an instant, there was nothing left under this sword qi, and the body of the blood moon army that rushed into Changzhou City was cut off from it, forming a vacuum area.
And in this vacuum area, it rained blood, and the air was replaced by bloody gas.
"We've been tricked, retreat!" The Blood Moon soldiers who had just arrived outside the city gate and almost stepped into the city watched this scene in fear, and they didn't know who yelled, they hurriedly ran back, and there was a great confusion with the Blood Moon soldiers who were still coming in the direction of the city without knowing it.
At this moment, countless fires lit up in both directions at the same time, and the sound of horses' hooves galloping straight into every panicked heart, Zhang Dali's rough voice echoed in the night sky: "Brothers, don't let go of any of them!"
"Kill!!"
......
The Blood Moon Soldier who was cut off by the sword qi in the city looked at it in a daze, and a figure slowly floated down from the air, surrounded by sword qi, and the surrounding space was constantly cut, making a piercing sound.
Although there is only one person and one sword, in the eyes of all the Blood Moon soldiers, it is shocking!
It was this person just now, with a sword aura, who instantly killed more than a hundred of their compatriots, and cut off the Blood Moon army that had been driving straight into it with great neatness.
The north gate is still wide open, but no one dares to rush to the city gate.
"Lin Zixiao!" Hei Yan looked at the man, gritted his teeth fiercely, and his face turned pale.
Lin Zixiao is the peak powerhouse of the Lingyuan Realm, the strongest of Yang Yan's personal guards, and a swordsman who has reached the realm of the unity of man and sword, his strength is terrifying, there is no need to say more.
If he hadn't been alert just now, he would have taken a step back first, and with the power of that sword, he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die.
"Damn! just a little bit!" Hei Yan secretly hated in his heart, but many times, the difference between one step and life and death was the difference.
"Your Highness has an order, those who enter the city will be killed!" Lin Zixiao looked at the Blood Moon soldiers who looked at him vigilantly, slowly approached, and when he fell down, he spit out a word.
When the last word "pardon" fell, Lin Zixiao stepped out, and the sword qi around him seemed to have received an order, and they all roared out in unison, and pounced on the person in front of him with an extremely fierce attitude.
The Blood Moon soldiers raised their weapons to resist, but how could this terrifying sword aura be blocked by ordinary soldiers?
In an instant, blood was spilled, and more than a dozen unrecognizable figures fell in a pool of blood, and the rest of the Blood Moon soldiers were shocked, retreating back in a panic, and even trampled some of their own people under their feet without realizing it.
Hei Yan hid in the crowd, and when he saw the crowd retreating frantically, he almost squeezed himself to the front, and immediately became furious: "What are you panicking about? No matter how strong he is, he is only one person! He can kill ten people, a hundred people, and all of you? The gate is in front, and even if he is strong together, he can't stop us!"
However, even if many people know that Hei Yan is right, when the manpower is poor, no matter how strong Lin Zixiao is, it is impossible to fight against an army of tens of thousands of people, if it is hard, even if they will suffer heavy casualties, it will only be Lin Zixiao who will die in the end, not to mention that they just want to rush out of the city, Lin Zixiao will kill a small number of them at most, and the main force can rush out.
But will there be a small group of people who will have to pay the sacrifice?
The first to shoot the first bird, the first to die must be the fastest, who is willing to sacrifice their lives for others?
