885 Ambush
The stove was still burning, and the room was still hot, but Zhou Yezi's body was already cold and stiff. The sunken chest and confused eyes tell the confusion in his heart at the time of the incident.
Helian Shaoqin walked around the room a few times, and there were a few more hidden scrolls in his hand. He flipped through it, and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.
At that moment, I saw him put away the scrolls, stabbed the stove, and let the smoke of gunpowder burn in the house, destroying the place without a trace, and he himself quietly walked out of the house.
Observation Tower, the highest place in the Iron and Stone City.
On the top floor, Mu Minghe clasped his hands in front of his chest, his body stood straight in front of the railing, and a long stick leaned diagonally on his side. He didn't know how long he had been standing here, but he was silent, as quiet as a marble sculpture.
"The master of the door. ”
Helian Shaoqin quickly jumped to the top floor from below, kneeling behind Mu Minghe, breathing a little heavily.
"Got news?"
Mu Minghe's ears moved slightly, and his deep eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he had seen something, and looked out of the city.
"Yes, the Acropolis of Gaohuai City in the north has been broken, and it is estimated that the Wu family's army will be able to reach Ironstone City tomorrow. ”
Helian Shaoqin calmed down his breath and continued to speak.
"There's one more thing, Wu Batian, he's injured!"
As he spoke, his voice trembled, and it was hard to hide his excitement.
Since the Wu family's uprising, they have won every battle and conquered every battle, and ninety percent of them are the credit of Wu Batian, the world's number one fierce general! Over the past few years, this man has fought hundreds of battles, not to mention defeat, and has never even suffered injuries.
Such miracles also made his name more and more famous, and it became more and more terrifying.
Unexpectedly, the news of his injury came today, which is tantamount to showing that although Wu Batian is strong, he is not an invincible existence.
This news was definitely an exciting thing for Tianmen, who was about to ambush Wu Batian, no wonder even Helian Shaoqin could not contain his mood.
"Oh!"
Mu Minghe raised his eyebrows, and seemed to be a little surprised.
"Wounded? Who made him hurt? The gilded armor on his body is not so easy to break. ”
It is true that Wu Batian has a battle armor weighing hundreds of catties on his body, and he is holding two large vat drums and urns in his hands, coupled with his rumored martial arts, the whole person is almost a heavenly god general.
It is not easy for the world to hurt him!
"It's not people, it's gunpowder!"
Helian Shaoqin pursed his lips.
"Even this thing that came out of Sun Zimei's hands is amazingly powerful, and it is not a problem to open mountains and crack stones! Although Wu Batian is strong, he can't ignore the power of gunpowder explosion!"
"Demon stuff!"
When Mu Minghe heard this, he didn't seem to be very happy, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he smiled coldly.
"Door master, subordinates think that as long as it is easy to use, even if it is an evil thing, it is fine!"
Helian Shaoqin raised his head slightly, glanced at Mu Minghe, and immediately lowered his head back.
"Well, there's gunpowder in the city?"
Mu Minghe turned around and looked at Helian Shaoqin intently, what the other party said was so obvious, he naturally wouldn't not understand.
"How many?"
"A lot! When the imperial court and Liu Chaoen had not yet turned their faces, Tieshi City was secretly responsible for supervising the production of gunpowder, although the things were not as fine as the firearms battalion under Sun Zimei, but there was still a lot of gunpowder. ”
"Okay!
After a little silence, Mu Minghe nodded slowly.
He is not pedantic, as long as he can help him kill the demons, he can make some compromises. It's a big deal later, and then I'll find a way to exterminate these things one by one.
"However, there is one thing that my subordinates are worried about. ”
The joy faded, and Helian Shaoqin's face showed worry again.
"What?"
"My subordinates are worried that Wu Batian will be injured and will act cautiously because of this, which will hinder our plans. ”
"You'd be wrong!"
The corners of Mu Minghe's mouth sneered, and his eyes looked out of the city again.
"Wu Batian's injury should not be serious. Being hurt by someone will only anger him, make him lose his mind more and more, and desperately want to find someone to take revenge, and Ironstone City is his best target. ”
"Door Master?"
Helian Shaoqin was stunned for a moment, and Mu Minghe seemed to have something to say.
"Boom ......"
A loud noise outside the city wall in the distance interrupted Helian Shaoqin's doubts, and also proved the meaning of Mu Minghe's words.
"Look, he's here!"
Outside the city.
Iron Stone City is located in the wasteland, surrounded by no people, but the slightest movement in all directions will be clearly seen by the guards on the city wall, and the dust dragged in the distance is naturally no exception.
It's just that judging from the scale of the dust, although the speed of the comers is urgent, the number of people is not large, and it does not attract too much attention from the guards in advance.
It wasn't until the approach, when the vague figure gradually became clear, that the frightened cries of the city walls sounded.
"There is an enemy attacking! It's Wu Batian!"
The man in the dust, though armed with a double hammer and wearing heavy armor, was still as fast as a galloping horse. As soon as the voice fell on the city wall, the man had already bowed his head suddenly, leaned forward, and threw one hand forward.
"Woo......"
The sound of breaking the air sounded, and a huge hammer roared from a distance of 100 meters, with a fierce and violent wind, and crashed down on a corner of the city wall.
"Boom ......"
There was exactly a hidden soldier cave, the thinnest thickness, and when it met this blow, half of the city wall collapsed immediately.
Of the dozens of soldiers inside, half of them died on the spot, and most of them were also dizzy and staggering, with a roar in their ears, and stars in their eyes, and they were fascinated.
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Kerose!"
The roar of the city guards on the city wall and the crossbow arrows that came one by one fell from the sky, and rushed towards the big man in heavy armor. There were also large balls of fire, burning and falling downward.
"Ding...... Bite...... Ding......"
The man outside the city held a drum urn and a golden hammer, held himself to the death, and the whole person kicked the ground, like a golden streamer, facing the heavy attack, rushing towards the iron stone city.
"What's the trap outside the city, and why isn't it working?"
On the city wall, Xiao Wei glared angrily at the city defender.
The Xiao family is mainly responsible for infiltrating the military compound of the imperial court in the Heavenly Gate, and the guard of this city, Xiao Wei, is his nephew.
"No, could he have walked on the snow without a trace in these things?"
Xiao Wei also looked frightened, and his eyes looked at Wu Batian who was about to approach the city wall in disbelief. They had dug many traps, tripping pits, etc., outside the city, but at this time there seemed to be no movement.
"Forget it, we didn't plan to deal with him outside the city, you go and get ready first, inform the heavy armor, everything is going according to plan!"
Xiao Ning's eyes shrank, knowing that asking further would only hurt the confidence of the two of them, so he pointed to the distance outside the city and commanded Xiao Wei loudly.
"The black-clothed guard of the Wu family is also here, let's hurry up and leave this world's number one general!"
"Yes!"
"Boom ......"
The city wall shook suddenly, and the two of them took root under their feet, and they fixed their bodies, but the few people next to them did not have such good strength, and immediately turned over and fell to the ground, and there were two unlucky eggs, who were planted directly from the city wall.
The three-zhang high city wall, falling like this, is absolutely nine deaths!
"The walls are falling!"
"Hurry down, go down!"
There was chaos on the city wall, but under the city wall, Wu Batian, who had a cold face, walked unhurriedly among the ruins in the middle of the city wall.
His posture was as calm as Yue, his expression was not happy or angry, and every time he waved his hand, he collapsed a large piece of the city wall, and with his steps, a city wall of tens of meters slowly collapsed, setting off huge waves in the moat outside the city.
When his figure was exposed, countless bows and arrows must have been fired, but except for a few of them that were easily blocked by him, the others were almost like itching to him!
Walking under the city walls, he is like a wild beast, and wherever he passes, there is nothing to stop him!
His figure is actually leisurely, and it seems that it is not difficult for him to break a city with one person.
Such a majesty also shocked the officers and soldiers defending the city almost forgot their duties, and the crossbow arrows that were fired one after another slowly thinned out.
The people who opened their bows and arrows in the distance looked at each other, and they all saw the despair and powerlessness in each other's eyes!
Why does such an existence exist in the world?
"Boom ......"
Outside the city, the rapid horse's hooves sounded again, and thousands of elite cavalry swarmed in, pouring into the city in an orderly manner along the breach opened by Wu Batian.
"Put down the blade in your hand, surrender and don't kill!"
The black-clothed guards of the Wu family, the elite army of the Wu family's army, are also a few existences today.
Although because of Wu Batian, they rarely made a move, but several solo actions all showed that they were almost not weaker than the Great Song Xuantie Army!
"When...... When ......"
Some put down their swords and fell to their knees weakly, while many more quietly retreated towards the city, looking for the time to come.
The black-clothed guards advanced in an orderly manner, eating away at the resistance forces in the city little by little, if there were a large number of opponents, Wu Batian would take the lead and solve them with a swing of a hammer.
They have done this kind of thing many times, and they are extremely proficient.
A mere city of craftsmen, a small city with less than 4,000 garrisons, they were cautious enough to do so.
Until they reached the location of the square in the city, a hidden murderous aura suddenly made Wu Batian pause, and he waved his hand violently.
"Be careful!"
"Buzz ......"
It's too late, it's too soon.
The random arrows pierced through the air, and in an instant, there were enough bows and arrows to fall from the sky, like a strong rain, directly enveloping all the black-clothed guards.
"Be careful!
"Ah......h
Exclamations and screams sounded one after another, and the black-clothed guards were in a mess at this moment. They have come to fight a good battle, and the order of the army is still somewhat insufficient in comparison.
"Clear the way!"
"Boom ......"
The surrounding houses collapsed in unison under a shout, and a straight avenue appeared in front of them.
Xiao Yi was dressed in heavy armor, holding a spear weighing more than eight meters, sitting on a tall horse, and behind him were heavy armored cavalrymen dressed like him.
Heavy Armor!
The Xuantie Army is the elite of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Heavy Armor Army is the elite of the elite.
Since the establishment of the heavy armor army by King Yong, there is a saying that 300 heavy armor can block 10,000 soldiers.
The 10,000 soldiers here are not a rabble, but a genuine battlefield elite.
Every heavy armor army in the Great Song Dynasty is a good hand in the realm of body refining, and equestrianism has reached the realm of unity of man and horse.
They and the horses under their crotch are covered with heavy armor, and the heavy armor wraps the people and horses tightly, and this group of monsters weighing thousands of pounds rushes through the battlefield, and the spears in their hands can easily penetrate the tigers and leopards.
Since the day of the appearance of the Heavy Armor Army, they have been a symbol of invincibility. On the battlefield, their appearance brings pure despair to the enemy!
At this time, the black-clothed guards of the Wu family are facing such a team, which is almost the hole card at the bottom of the Tianmen box.
"Rush!"
"Boom ......"
More than 300 heavily armored cavalry rushed forward, more powerful than thousands of troops and horses, and they were still approaching, and their momentum had already made the formation of the black-clothed guards scatter again.
"There are so many heavily armored soldiers here?"
Wu Batian's footsteps moved slightly, and a single figure appeared in front of the black-clothed guard, with doubts and excitement in his eyes, but more of them were cruel and murderous!
"Kill!"
"Woo......"
The two spears stabbed forward suddenly, and the combination of strength and speed caused the spears in their hands to tear the roar of the wind directly in the air.
"Good time!"
Wu Batian raised his hammer and walked forward without hurrying.
His speed seems to be slow, but it makes people have nowhere to figure it out, and even has a sense of deviation.
"Ding......
The guns and hammers collided, the spears slipped, and the two horses in front of their heads slashed towards Wu Batian's sides.
"Bang ......"
The twin hammers were thrown horizontally, and the two horses weighing thousands of catties flew up horizontally, and the people and horses were killed at the moment of collision with the giant hammer, and they were silent.
"Thorn ......"
The four shots rushed forward, and one of the shots had a breath inside, and it suddenly exploded in front of him, and the true qi erupted out.
"When ......"
The voice was solid, but this time it was really bumped together, Wu Batian's body shook, and he failed to take advantage of the situation to kill.
"Xiao Yu! It's you!"
"Haha...... Ha ha...... Since you're here, stay here!"
Wu Batian was stunned at first, and then suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, in a fierce mood, the double hammer walked around his body, the strong wind in the field rushed away, and the tornado was whirring.
"Boom ......"
I saw him bend over and bend down, the muscles and muscles of his body trembled like a bowstring, the qi and blood in his body exploded, and he stomped towards the earth with one foot, and the hard ground shook and cracked like a soft mud surface, giving birth to a lot of twists and turns.
The sand, gravel and dirt rose into the sky, wrapped together with the strong wind, and tore away fiercely forward.
"Bang ......"
The golden figure rushed ten feet, and Wu Batian, who was wearing a gilded battle armor, waved the double hammer in his hand, and indirectly blasted out thirty blows in an instant, and each of his blows shattered the void, which meant that one person and one horse lost their hands.
Even if it is the Heavenly Gate Protector, Xiao Yu of the Qi Refining Realm, is no exception!
The double hammers danced wildly, the golden armor flickered, and the heavy armored cavalry was like a weak doll in front of Wu Batian, easily torn apart by him, and bombarded and killed! The three hundred heavy armored soldiers were actually suppressed by him and retreated.
"The general is mighty!"
"The general is invincible in the world!"
The black-clothed guards in the rear shouted loudly in the sky, and their voices were uplifting, spreading throughout the city.
On a ruin behind the black-clothed guard, Mu Minghe looked at the scene in front of him with a gloomy face, and the muscles in his face couldn't help but shake back and forth.
"Door Master?"
Helian Shaoqin's face was already pale, and they still had a lot of means to use, and Xiao Yu's ending was not excluded. However, Wu Batian's strength is far beyond their imagination.
His physical strength was stronger than the bull demons they had dealt with, and his martial arts were even more terrifying and formidable. Moreover, judging from their actions, Wu Batian was not a reckless and unwise person.
They thought that Wu Batian had a reckless personality and did things straightforwardly, but now it seems that the other party is afraid that he will not be able to use his brains, but for him, the straightforward approach is the most effective!
In the face of great strength, everything is meaningless!
"Tighten your hands, gather at the furnace, prepare explosives, and I'll lead him over!"
"Door master, no! he's not the scalper!"
Helian Shaoqin's face changed, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to dissuade him.
"Although he is not the scalper, he has never lost, as long as I can give him a hard blow, I don't believe he can not be annoyed!"
Mu Minghe gritted his teeth, lifted the stick in his hand, and rushed forward.
In the midst of the frantic running, he raised his hand with one hand, and the stick in his hand had turned into a rapidly rotating fan, one step ahead of him, and slaughtered towards the group of black-clothed guards.
