At midnight, the heroes had reached the south of the Shihe River. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoA stone bridge spans the river, there are thirty Huns on both sides of the bridge, and the city of Shenzhou is on the other side of the river, but there is no city wall on this side. Five or six miles south of the bridge, it is the war horse camp of the Hun army.
Under the cover of the dense forest, the heroes headed north along the Shihe River. After traveling for about four or five miles, the surface of the river gradually narrowed, but it was only two or three zhang wide. Chu Lin made three bird calls, and more than a dozen beggar disciples walked out of the dense forest, but the leader was Elder Li Tang, and everyone stepped forward to see Xuan Qi and Chu Lin.
The two beggar gang disciples who had already dressed in water ghost costumes jumped into the river, quickly crossed the Shihe River, and pulled the ropes in their hands across the river. On one side of the rope was a wooden plank that had been prepared long ago, and when it was straightened, it was tied to the trunk of the tree, and it became an improvised suspension bridge. The heroes all have a light body kung fu, and the suspension bridge is still a little shaky, but it is a piece of cake, and they quickly passed the suspension bridge.
After crossing the suspension bridge, Chu Lin took five hundred masters to the south along the Shihe River, bypassing the guards of the stone bridge, and appeared in the dense forest outside the war horse camp and hidden. And Xuan Qi was led by Li Tang and went directly to the east and entered Shenzhou City. Under the cover of night, the group headed towards the east gate of Shenzhou, and after half an hour, they finally arrived at a few streets near the east gate and hid.
And Xuan Qi was alone and entered the General's Mansion in the night. At this time, there was silence in the general's mansion, and only the Hun soldiers on duty stood indifferently. Xuan Qi followed the route that Li Tang had explored in advance, went straight into the back house of the General's Mansion and jumped onto the roof.
Xuan Qi gently uncovered the tiles and looked down, only to see the red candle burning, and in the tent, there was a faint figure lying down, but he couldn't see the appearance clearly. Xuan Qi put the tiles away and poked his head down from the eaves, but there were two Hun soldiers guarding the door. In order not to alarm the Huns, Xuan Qi went around to the back of the house, and the wooden window behind the house was still closed.
A paper-thin dagger appeared in Xuan Qi's hand, reached through the crack in the window, and gently flicked it a few times. Xuan Qi stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the window, and he had passed through the window silently. There was a soft snoring sound in the room, and Xuan Qi listened carefully, but it was the snorting of three people.
Xuan Qi took a light step, slowly walked to the bed, opened the Luo tent, but saw a strong man with a full face lying flat in the brocade quilt, looking like this, it was no different from the Tuoba Hong described by Li Tang. Two good-looking young Han women were leaning on either side of Tuoba Hong, sleeping sweetly, revealing their arms beyond the brocade quilt, white and flawless.
Xuan Qi sighed secretly, quickly reached out and pointed at the acupoints of the three of them, grabbed Tuoba Hong's neck and twisted it, a slight click sounded, Tuoba Hong's throat bone shattered, his head was tilted to the side, and there was no sound anymore. Xuan Qi walked out of the room the same way, gently closed the window, turned over to the roof, and disappeared into the night of Shenzhou City.
Before dawn, 50,000 horsemen appeared outside the east gate, their horses' hooves wrapped in thick cloth making a slight noise in the snow. Under the cover of night, it was not until thirty zhang outside the city gate that it was discovered by the Huns guarding the city. A Hun soldier was about to shout loudly, a flying knife had pierced his throat, and the Hun soldier made a gurgling sound in his mouth, and he had fallen softly on the city wall.
Under the leadership of Xuan Qi, the group of heroes quickly rushed to the inner gate of the urn city, and hundreds of Hun soldiers tried their best to block it, but how could they stop the wolf-like heroes, and in a few breaths, dozens of people had fallen. Xuan Qi stepped forward quickly, but he jumped up directly, his feet continued to step on the top of the Hun soldiers' heads, and quickly rushed through the Hun soldiers' blockage and entered the city gate hole of the urn city. At the gate of the urn city, more than a dozen Hun soldiers were struggling to push the city gate, trying to close the city gate.
Xuan Qi grabbed a handful of copper coins from his arms and threw them towards the city gate, screaming again and again, more than a dozen Hun soldiers suddenly let go of the city gate, and each of his hands covered the place where the copper coin was shot. The Hun soldiers behind Xuan Qi turned their heads at this time, and the spears in their hands stabbed towards Xuan Qi. Xuan Qi didn't care at all, and rushed to the city gate quickly, and the spears stabbed behind him suddenly failed.
Seeing Xuan Qi rushing forward, the two Hun soldiers hurriedly stepped forward regardless of the pain, wanting to stop Xuan Qi. Xuan Qi stretched out his hands forward, but he grabbed the two spears by the way, and with a shake in his hands, the two spears suddenly shook violently. The two Huns screamed miserably, and they were already hit in the chest by the shaking barrels of their guns, and flew upside down.
At this time, the group of heroes behind him had already solved the remaining Hun soldiers, rushed into the city gate hole, and in a sprint, more than a dozen Hun soldiers at the city gate had fallen down in a scream. Xuan Qi led the heroes and quickly rushed into the urn city, leaving only two hundred people behind him to guard the gate of the urn city.
In the urn city, there were 1,000 Hun soldiers stationed, and at this time they had rushed out from both sides, and the two sides were fighting together. The spear in Xuan Qiwu's hand, like a dragon going out to sea, rushed straight into the Hun soldiers. The spears were everywhere, stabbing or pointing, sweeping or smashing, and the Huns couldn't resist it at all. The group of heroes behind him, following both sides of Xuan Qi's back, rushed towards the city gate.
Soon, the Hun soldiers were rushed out of a gap, Xuan Qi with more than a dozen masters, had already rushed into the city gate, and the heroes behind him turned around to block the attack of the Hun soldiers. In the cave of the city gate, there were only a dozen Hun soldiers, almost all of whom lost their lives under the face. The heroes struggled to remove the bolt of the door, and the gate slammed open. The 50,000 cavalry, who had been waiting outside the city gate for a long time, began to rush into the city in a steady stream.
The sound of fierce fighting woke up the sleeping Hun soldiers, and countless Hun soldiers began to pour into the streets, heading towards the east city gate. The 50,000 cavalry had already rushed through the two city gates and rushed towards the Huns, who were still in disarray. At this time, Xuan Qi led the group of heroes and rushed towards the war horse camp by the Shihe River.
Under the iron hoof, the Hun soldiers without war horses could not resist at all, and were rushed by 50,000 cavalry. At this time, the cavalry team had already divided into two roads, one continued to attack towards the center of Shenzhou City, and the other followed the city wall and rushed to the north gate. Half an hour later, the north gate was lost, and 50,000 cavalry rushed into Shenzhou City, and 100,000 cavalry sprinted back and forth in Shenzhou City, harvesting the lives of the Huns.
Countless Hun soldiers have rushed to the military horse camp, as long as they are on horseback, the Hun soldiers can exert exponential attack power, even in the face of multiplied Celestial Cavalry, they will not fall behind. The general's mansion, which was alarmed by the shouting of killing, also fell into chaos at this time, and Tuoba Hong, the commander of the ten thousand cavalry, as a guard, was quietly crushed by someone and died. Without Tuoba Hong's command, the Hun soldiers in the city didn't know what to do except instinctively rush in the direction of the war horse camp.
