Chapter 1 The Battle of Shaozhou
In the first year of Hanxing, at the beginning of June, the sky was hot. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It has been a month since the meeting between Xuan Ming and Zhuang Tongyue.
The corpse rebellion in Shaozhou City still did not subside, but suddenly fermented half a month ago, and the martial marquis of South Vietnam once again fell into a crisis of confidence.
As a last resort, the county guard of Nanyue County sent a request for help to Jingchu County in the north, but with the strength of the two counties, it was still impossible to reach the most central area of Shaozhou City.
Pedestrians and merchants who wanted to go north had to change their way to waterways or take detours from east to west.
Bang!
The fist slammed on the wooden table, and from the beginning of a certain unsuccessful attack with the team, Zhou Ming fell into contemplation from time to time, and when he thought of the depths, the scene in front of him appeared again.
This is the riverside tavern at Nanling Ferry, and the entire Nanling Village has become the rear of the front line of the sea of clouds in Wuhou Mansion.
Bold merchants settled here one after another, opening various shops for Wuhou.
There has been no war in Shenzhou for a long time, and it is rare to have such a large-scale incident, if they can be mixed with the qualifications of a merchant with the army, it will be more convenient in the business world in the future.
"Alright, don't look at it, let's eat. ”
Driving the eyes of the others in the tavern back, Xuan Ming sighed, and the whole person fell, hunched over, crossed his hands on the table, and looked at the river outside the window silently.
Advise?
There is no need to persuade again, and if you persuade again, you will be beaten.
He was the commander-in-chief of the Wuhou Brigade in Shaozhou City this time, he was the one who led the team to ambush, and he was the one who escaped from the Yunhai Stone Forest alone.
How else can you be persuaded?
picked up the wine jug and filled the wine glass in front of Zhou Ming, after all, he still had to say something.
"In the middle of this month, the current owner of Longquan Sword Village is going to hold a golden basin washing meeting and retreat into the background. Would you like to come with me?"
"There is an order from the peak, Zhou Ming returned to the city to report on his work, and this place was taken over by Master Mo Yu's strong sword. I can't go, I have to stay here and wait for my uncle. Now this kind of scene you Hou keeps is just shouting and cheering, if you want to go, just go. ”
The wine glass was raised lazily, and it lazily touched Xuan Ming.
Zhou Ming's lonely side face was almost frozen, to say that he would sink like this, it was obviously a lie.
But if he wants to be relieved, he doesn't know when it will be.
Xuan Ming's thoughts fluttered, and his mind began to retrace the battle that made Zhou Ming mention the discoloration・・・・・・
At the foot of the sea of clouds, the official road of the stone forest.
The Wuhou team led by Zhou Ming was slowly marching on the road, and Xuan Ming was walking beside him, one step behind him.
In a bush of all-black Wuhou combat uniforms, there was a set of blue and white Qingxu Taoist robes. From a distance, under the dim black clouds, only a black dragon could be seen, but the dragon's eyes of the same color as the stone pillars and vines on both sides could not be heard.
This may be the reason why Xuan Ming was unscathed under the Blood Refining Sect's several blows.
"Slow," Zhou Ming raised his hand to signal the military formation to stop, "The shield hand raises the shield, and the crossbowman winds up!"
The passwords were passed down in turn, and Xuan Ming jumped up, spun and climbed onto the stone pillar wall.
In the distance, dozens of people could be seen in a neat phalanx, slowly coming with shields.
"Five horizontally, ten vertically. ”
Hearing Xuan Ming's words, Zhou Ming smiled, there are only fifty sets of Wuhou Mansion equipment in Shaozhou City, and these Blood Refining Sect members are really confident.
Shenzhou does not prohibit martial arts, but the forbidden crossbow, the enemy crossbow is not something that ordinary people can use casually for two or three days.
As he expected, the scattered crossbow bolts that followed left him without even the urge to hide in the shield of mountains and rivers.
"That's not right!" Zhou Ming shouted loudly, "Shields are set up on both sides, and the crossbowmen are ready to shoot back!"
As soon as the words fell, a rain of arrows mixed with bows and crossbows flew from the stone forests on both sides, throwing direct shots.
The arrows clanged as they landed on the crossbowman's armguards, and the bolts pierced through the mountains and rivers, still trembling when they were nailed to the shield. Occasionally, there was a muffled snort, which meant that some of the unlucky eggs had been shot.
Just after the rain of arrows, there was no need for Zhou Ming to give an order, and the outer shield handle turned the mountain and river shield, revealing a gap for the two people to hold crossbows, and the mouth reported the direction that had just been observed through the viewport on the mountain and river shield. The innermost crossbowman rises from a half-crouched position, and shoots his arrows at different positions in the same direction at the same time with his partner.
Screams were scattered from the place where the stone forest sent out a rain of arrows, and the damage caused by this counterattack seemed to be unsatisfactory.
Zhou Ming frowned, but before he could think deeply, the Blood Refining Sect in front of him actually rushed directly with a shield.
"The fighting generals are all exempted and rush directly into the battle?" in the front row, the armor-piercing arrows are ready, put them!"
With a wave of Zhou Ming's hand, the first row of shield bearers suddenly spread out to both sides, and then the crossbowmen in the second, third, and fourth rows shot in a three-stage manner, pouring arrow rain in front of them.
Can the Broken Arrow Penetrate the Shield of Mountains and Rivers? A newspaper once jokingly asked a bunch of experts to discuss this issue.
Today's order naturally gave the answer - no.
The special armor-piercing arrows that can penetrate the shield of mountains and rivers only exist in the Wuhou Mansion under the major county governments, and they are limited.
The number that Zhou Ming got by relying on his relationship was just fifty, four people in one row, twelve people in three rows, and after four rounds, there were no arrows.
The arrow was gone, the person was still standing, and the momentum of the Blood Refining Sect's charge was only slightly frustrated.
"No way. ”
Zhou Ming picked up the remaining two armor-piercing crossbow arrows in disbelief and looked at them, the arrows and the body of the arrows were not wrong.
That・・・・・・
He took the enemy crossbow from the crossbowman beside him, quickly wound it, took aim, and fired.
The spiral airflow of the arrow carrier flew out like lightning, and the sight of the shield passed through it, and with three pops, the Blood Refining Sect suddenly fell three people in a row.
"They have physical problems, and the skull seems to be the most vulnerable place. Xuan Ming, who was still on a high place, immediately gave his guess after his observation.
"Hear me, brothers. The weakness of the Xibei goods on the opposite side is the head. The crossbowmen retreat, the shieldmen draw their swords, and the battle begins!"
Zhou Ming laughed wildly, and the sharp claws stretched out from the bracers were fixed with a click, and the blade was cold.
"The sword is the name of heaven and earth, protect my territory, everyone, kill with me!"
On the battle array, Zhou Ming actually did not have the right to command, and the real command was only in the hands of the leaders of each Wuhou group.
At that moment, I saw that the leaders of each group first pulled out the sharp blades called heaven and earth on their waists, and each formed a triangular formation of three people, covering each other and rushing towards the Blood Refining Sect.
One by one, the triangular fronts entered through the formation, and the first layer of defense of the Blood Refining Sect phalanx was dispersed.
Only at this time did Xuan Ming and Zhou Ming enter the enemy formation single-handedly.
Zhou Ming, in order to form a corner with Xuan Ming, jumped on the stone pillar on the other side, stepped on a few steps, and the two of them were condescending, like eagles catching rabbits and mice, quite a bit flying down, unstoppable.
Zheng Zheng Zheng three times, ran three stone pillars in a row, Xuan Ming swallowed the sun and the moon in a row, gave birth to Tai Chi, Ling Taixu three aura.
The sword shadows are flying, the sword light is coming, why is it difficult for the martial marquis under the pillar to say?
