Chapter 177: Rush to Kill
When the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect in the west pushed the shield and marched fifty steps into the dense forest, the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect in the north made slow progress, because Hu Dulu asked Jiang Yunsong to lead the elite of the Ming army to block the enemy with wooden arrows in order to paralyze the Heavenly King Sect.
Jiang Yunsong's subordinates were originally from mountain bandits, and many of them were good at using arrows! Later, they were under Zilong's command, and these people also worked extremely hard and practiced archery hard! Although at this time, instead of heavy iron arrows, light wooden arrows were used, the archery skills of the Ming army from these mountain bandits were extremely accurate.
Therefore, under the dense rain of arrows, the army of the Heavenly King Sect in the north had already paid the price of dozens of disciples killed and wounded.
The Beji warriors led by Hu Dulu were not as strong as the northern army in the west. Therefore, the army in the west was progressing smoothly, and under paralysis, they even pushed away the oars and shields, and prepared to calmly set fire to the forest.
Such careless actions to underestimate the enemy, Hu Dulu naturally could not let go, and took advantage of the wide opening of the shield and ordered to shoot wolf tooth arrows.
Six hundred wolf's tooth arrows poured out, directly stunned the unsuspecting western army, and their cotton armor was almost useless against the wolf's tooth arrows.
After the rain of wolf's teeth and arrows, at least more than 100 disciples of the Heavenly King Sect fell in a pool of blood, although it was impossible for them all to die, but they all lost their combat ability.
The leader of the Heavenly King faction commanding from the west was slightly startled when he saw this, and immediately shouted loudly: "Enemy attack, enemy attack, this should be the direction of the main force of the Beji people to break through! Everyone line up their shields and prepare to resist the breakthrough of the Beji people! Trumpeter, blow the trumpet to me and inform the master of Sima Tang that the Beji people have broken through from us!"
As soon as this order was given, the panicked Heavenly King sent an army to finally react, and at the moment, under the command of the small leader, they pushed the shield well, and then a trumpeter prepared to blow the trumpet and notify Sima Ji's side.
But the leader thought about it, although this wave of arrows caused heavy casualties among his own people, and it was suspected that the main force of the Beji people was here! But as far as the eye could see, he could only see the pitch-black dense forest, and as for how many people were behind this dense forest, it was really impossible to see! If he blew the trumpet casually and called for reinforcements, it would be good that the main force of the Beji people really chose this side to break through! But if not, it would be a random report, and when the time came, Hu Dulu and the main force of the Beji people would be released, and Sima Ji would definitely kill himself.
Thinking of this, the leader immediately stopped blowing the trumpet, continued to line up the oars, and then instructed his disciples to throw the fire-ignited object into the dense forest behind the two-man high oars and shields, either with a bow and a crossbow or purely with arm strength.
The things that cause fire are either gunpowder or naturally fire oil, all of which are flammable. These things were thrown into the dense forest, and under the touch of Mars, they naturally ignited a raging fire.
Under the command of Hu Dulu, the Beji people were also calm and composed, while ordering 200 people to extinguish the fire as much as possible, and on the other hand, they carried out a long-range hanging shot in the direction of the throw. This is to throw the bow into the air, calculate the landing point, and launch an arrow attack behind the obstacle fortifications.
This kind of archery may not be very clever, but it has extremely high requirements for the archer's prediction and his own archery literacy. Therefore, when the four hundred warriors of the Beji people all opened their bows and shot the method of hanging shooting, the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect who were hiding behind the oars and shields and were about to throw the fire-causing things unscrupulously couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
The shrewd disciple naturally dodged and found a place to hide! The disciple who reacted slowly for half a beat was directly shot by the arrow that fell from the sky, and his life went to Huangquan.
After such a burst of hanging shots, at least dozens of disciples of the Heavenly King Sect fell, and before the western army encountered a single Beji person, it had already been shot and injured by the Beji people's bow and arrow technique, reducing the combat strength of less than 20%.
Seeing this, the leader of the command was dumbfounded, and he only felt that although there were only six hundred people in this Beji, it was really not an easy person!
At this time, the weather was dry and dry, and although the two hundred Beji people tried their best to put out the fire, they still couldn't completely resist the fire attack of the Heavenly King faction after all. Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and stronger, Hu Dulu calmly said to Zilong: "Zilong, I want you to change into the clothes of the Beji people, bring a hundred soldiers, and be sure to tear the shield array for me, I don't know if it's okay?"
"Okay!" Zilong didn't say a word, he directly picked up the clothes of the Beji people, and changed them. When Hu Dulu saw Zilong like this, he couldn't help but be extremely moved in his heart! At that moment, he personally selected 100 elite Beji warriors and told them in the Beji language that they must defend Zilong who rushed together with their lives.
Zilong naturally didn't know Hu Dulu's order, and together with a hundred warriors, he bit the scimitar and held the shield plate, rushed out of the sea of fire, and killed the Heavenly King faction's shield array.
The commander of the Heavenly King Sect was extremely depressed! He was never sure whether his side was the direction in which the main force of the Beji people broke through, but he was beaten by the Beji people and couldn't raise his head, and in just a short time of incense, at least 200 disciples had been killed, and more than 30 disciples were seriously injured.
He almost couldn't hold back several times, and was ready to call his men to blow the horn and inform the cavalry and several other reinforcements. But thinking of the consequences of misreporting the military situation, he resisted this impulse and kept directing his subordinates to set fire to the forest.
Seeing that the fire was getting stronger and stronger, there was already a posture of sweeping through the dense forest, and the bows and arrows inside were getting thinner and thinner, and gradually no more arrows were shooting, the commander finally put his mind at ease.
But in the next second, Zilong took a hundred Beji warriors and rushed out of the sea of fire directly like a god, and killed him with a shield. The commander's heart moved, and he almost ordered his men to blow the trumpet.
Later, it was found that the people who rushed out were only more than 100 Beji soldiers. He put his mind at ease and took it for granted that this was a ploy by the Beji people, just to let himself blow the horn and cause chaos on his side, and take the opportunity to let Hu Dulu go.
At that moment, the commander smiled cruelly and said: "Hehe! The Beji rats really couldn't help jumping out! Little ones, as long as everyone kills these 100 Beji people in this battle, it will be considered as completing the task and getting the credit! Kill me!"
Under the instigation of this commanding leader, the remaining more than 700 disciples of the Heavenly King Sect were extremely happy, they had long hated this group of invisible Beji people in their hearts, and at this time, when they saw the Beji people rushing out, they thought that they were all forced by the fire.
Hearing the words of the commander, the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect directly opened the large array of shields, and swarmed with weapons and shields to hedge against the Beji people.
Zilong originally thought that this time he would charge the formation, and the Heavenly King Faction would release the arrows first, so that it would be good if half of the hundred Beji people who had died were left! After arriving at the Turret Shield Array, he jumped into the Formation alone, delayed the movements of the Heavenly King Faction, and then let the remaining warriors of the Beji Sect destroy the Turret Shield Array, and naturally it would be done.
But how did he know that the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect were so light on the enemy, and they did not defend with a good shield array, but rushed out to kill.
Seeing such a disciple of the Heavenly King Sect who had no fighting strategy, Zilong couldn't help but be a little amused. Since these Heavenly King Sect disciples are like this, then he has to seize the rare opportunity to kill him without leaving a piece of armor.
Zilong is best at swordsmanship, after the last fight with Sikong Xuan, the realm of kendo has improved a lot, from having a sword in his hand and no sword in his heart, to the realm of sword unity with a sword in his hand and a sword in his heart.
When he reached the realm of the unity of the human sword, he was no longer confined to the fetters of moves, and the swordsmanship he used was all arbitrary, and between one move and one style, he could take people's lives.
At this time, although it was a scimitar in his hand, Zilong used this scimitar as a sword, and between the sword light, it flew up and down, and the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect who rushed the fastest only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and they were directly taken away by the scimitar.
The disciples of the Heavenly King Sect in the back continued to follow one after another, and they swarmed up and killed them.
Zilong's sword light turned again, and after directly splitting the shields of several disciples, and then followed by the flash of the knife light, several big human heads flew up directly, and on the headless corpse, a lot of blood spurted out, splashing the faces of the nearby disciples of the Heavenly King Sect.
Then more than a dozen disciples of the Heavenly King Sect rushed up and fought hard with Zilong, but they were all either dead or disabled, and they were directly broken through the blockade by Zilong.
Suddenly, the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect all understood that the Beji man in front of him, who looked clear-eyed, was actually a master of martial arts, ruthless in his shots, and killing people without blinking!
At that moment, the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect, who were originally preparing to besiege him, rushed directly to Zilong, like a wave, divided into two halves, and avoided Zilong, but killed the Beji warriors behind Zilong.
Zilong was about to pick up his knife and turn over to help these Beji warriors fight, but unexpectedly, a Beji warrior who knew Chinese specially arranged by Hu Dulu said loudly while resisting the attack of the disciples of the Heavenly King Sect: "Xu Daxia, you hurry up and complete the task, don't pay attention to us!"
As soon as he said this, Zilong couldn't help but be stunned. silently thought that what he was confessed by Hu Dulu was the heavy two-person high shield. If this shield is there, with this shield, it can at least inflict a considerable amount of damage on the Begi warriors.
Therefore, only by destroying the shield can the unnecessary casualties of the Beji people be reduced as much as possible. At that moment, Zilong no longer hesitated, turned his body directly, and ran towards the shield over there.
Zilong passed by many disciples of the Heavenly King Sect who did not dare to attack Zilong, and after a short time, he came to the front of the shield.
At this time, the shield was still wide open, but at that opening, there were three masters. One makes a golden gun, and at this time the head of the gun is pointing downward, and the momentum continues to continue. Another person made two octagonal copper hammers, one is afraid that it weighs dozens of catties, and the two together are definitely a weight of more than 100, such a blunt weapon, but it is also a murderous weapon.
The last person is a master of the sword! This person is surrounded by a long sword, dressed as a Han man, dressed in white, and looks a little out of the dust. Seeing Zilong killed, the Han man smiled lightly and said in Chinese, "What's your name?"
It's just that Zilong is pretending to be a Beji person after all, and the purpose is not to arouse the vigilance of the Western Army of the Heavenly King Sect, so he naturally pretends not to understand the words of the Han people.
The strong man who made the octagonal copper hammer scolded directly in Chinese and said: "This Beji pig may not understand Chinese! Big brother, wait until I go and smash him with two hammers!"
The Han man was also provoked by Zilong's unresponsiveness, and when he heard the strong man's voice, he didn't say a word. Seeing this, the strong man naturally thought that the Han people acquiesced, and directly danced two copper hammers and smashed them violently.
