Chapter 130 Through the Town
Qicai'er was shocked in her heart, she couldn't care too much anymore, and said fiercely to this hundred households: "Listen to my order, immediately light the beacon fire on the 'beacon tower' in Fang City, and warn all the Fang cities in the 'Shannan Province', just say that there is a brigade of enemies from 'Xuannan Sect'!"
"This ••••••" Li Kang couldn't help but be dumbfounded, although he was afraid of Qicai'er, he also knew the huge responsibility of lighting the beacon fire: if there was no enemy to appear, but he rashly lit the beacon tower, wouldn't that be the 'Beacon Opera Princes'?
But how did he face the angry Colorful Child?
Li Kang hesitated for a moment, and Qicai'er, in anger, raised her horsewhip again. At this time, suddenly, the beacon tower in 'Lugufang City' naturally ignited.
"This ••••••"
"What's going on?"
Li Kang stood up all of a sudden, and looked at the 'beacon tower' in great surprise. And Qicai'er's face began to turn pale, and she knew that what she was most afraid of might really have happened.
She couldn't take care of anything else, and she didn't entangle with this little hundred, and immediately ordered the troops who were eating to move forward with all their might, in the direction of the beacon fire, she, she must catch up with the damn Li Tian!
Time flew by, and more than 400 people under Li Tiansuo's department were marching south, while Qicai'er launched a frantic pursuit at the distance of five days behind them. At the same time, in the vicinity of 'Wonshanfang City', several small markets also gathered hundreds of soldiers to take a look at what was going on in 'Wonshanfang City'.
The surrounding markets were not large, and some men and horses had to be left to guard their own markets, so a total of only 400 soldiers were drawn out, united together, and advanced to the 'Yuanshanfang City' at sunset. But at this time, they were surprised to find that Yuanshanfang City had become a ruin.
The fire was blazing into the sky, illuminating a night sky, corresponding to the dark clouds and thunder that remained above the city. These 400 soldiers immediately entered the city to put out the fire, but they were surprised to find the corpses of the soldiers of the 'baggage team'. At this moment, these 'Tianyanmen' monks were really shaken, it turned out to be the most important baggage team of the sect, and they were actually looted by the people of the 'Xuannan Sect'!
In a war, baggage is so important, especially at this moment when a general offensive is about to be carried out! These 400 soldiers did not hesitate any longer, and pursued rapidly in the direction of Li Tiansuo's retreat. At the same time, tell the rear what is happening here.
The entire Shannan Province was shaken!
At dawn.
This is a checkpoint on the main road of 'Shannan Province', an important intersection of trade routes, forming a bustling town with a dense population. And after the 'Tianyan Gate' occupied this place, it also sent a team of men and horses to garrison it. However, this is not a fang market after all, so among the fifty people stationed, there are only ten soldiers, and the rest are auxiliaries.
These auxiliaries were not good at fighting, but they were good at bullying civilians, so the people of this town fled to the countryside, and the town was almost empty.
And these fifty men were stationed in the middle of the town.
Because there was no fighting, the soldiers were very lax, did not sleep at night and did not sleep during the day, either gambling or drinking, and there was not a single sentry outside the town. And in the early hours of the morning, it was the moment when these GIs had just fallen asleep, and it was also a good opportunity for a surprise attack.
In the dark, Li Tian personally led a team of people to sneak attack, but they were not stopped until they reached the barracks, and in surprise, they came to the outside of the defenders' houses, and under Li Tian's instructions, they took out their longbows and rune papers, which stimulated a slight spiritual light.
Time passed minute by minute, and suddenly, with a 'bell', Li Tian took the lead in kicking open the door of a house, and then all the longbows and runes launched a fierce attack on the house! A burst of spiritual light flashed violently, and a huge explosion filled all the rooms, and all kinds of debris and human limbs in the house flew outward like a mountain torrent!
The ruthless soldiers unleashed five or six arrows and sent out a dozen low-level runes before they stopped, and when the explosion was over and they rushed into the house, they saw that the house was in shambles, corpses and debris piled up, blood flowed all over the ground, and the flames began to burn.
In the firelight, suddenly, there was a movement in the ruins, and a blood-covered 'Tianyanmen' soldier struggled, he suffered some injuries, but it happened to be not fatal, and at this time he staggered to his feet, and saw a large number of Xuannanzong soldiers, who had filled their barracks.
Without hesitation, the Xuannan Sect warrior raised his spirit sword and killed this remnant enemy at once.
After easily eliminating the defenders of the 'Tianyan Gate', Li Tian asked people to send a signal, and the baggage carts behind them could pass! Suddenly, in the vast wilderness, a huge convoy appeared, and under the escort of hundreds of monks, the convoy slowly passed through the town and headed south.
In the night, the sound of the axle squeaking is so distinct.
This town is a key junction, and there are several enemy markets near it, once the convoy is discovered by these markets, it will be very dangerous, so Li Tian, who did not sweat during the battle, looked at the slow progress of the convoy at this time, but a piece of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Li Tian stood on a hillside in the middle of the town, and kept shouting orders, urging the convoy to speed up and pass through the town before dawn, but when the convoy was halfway through, the accident still happened!
"Huh•••••• This is a scout under Kang Jun, at this time, he almost collapsed in front of Li Tian, gave a military salute, but was speechless for a while. Li Tianyi held the young scout and asked seriously, "Is there an enemy army appearing?"
"Yes••••••• yes. The scout finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then said hard: "Returning to Lord Qianhu, there is indeed an enemy appearing! However, it was not the Fang Market near the town that discovered us, but •••••• our rear, there are pursuers!"
"A chasing soldier who has caught up all the way from 'Wonshanbo City'!"
"Captain Kang personally reconnoitred these pursuers, they should be the 'soldiers' of several Fang cities united together, a total of four hundred people, divided into left and right roads, from our northeast and northwest directions to catch up, at this time, less than fifty miles away from us!"
"Okay, you go down. Li Tian patted the scout on the shoulder and told him to go down to rest, and then immediately summoned Huang Zhi, Jiang Min and Zhang Hu. Li Tian gave a general explanation of the situation, and in the night, he issued an order to the map: "Huang Zhi, Zhang Hu, you two hundred households are responsible for blocking the enemy army in the northwest direction, be sure to inflict heavy damage on them in one fell swoop, so that they lose the ability to pursue!"
"There are two hundred enemies and there are only two hundred of you, I know it's hard, but you have to complete the mission!
"However•••••• we are not without advantages, now our supplies are extremely abundant, and we can't even use them up at all, there are a lot of runes and spiritual weapons in the baggage team, you can take as much as you can, and use enough spiritual objects to severely damage the enemy, understand?"
