Swordsman Fengyunzhi

Chapter 720

Chapter 240 IX Mutual Pour ([-])

"Boss, this guy with earrings actually blocked it!" The man holding the magic crossbow stared at Dalamut who was nailed to the city wall more than ten meters away, and whispered to the captain beside him.

And the one he called the captain was a veteran of the Shenfeng Battalion. He looked to be over 50 years old, and the knotted muscles on his arms were exposed to the air, despite the wind and sand from the Western Regions.

"Everyone install crossbow arrows immediately, retreat three feet and spread out, and no one is allowed to attack rashly without my order." The old soldier immediately judged the variables on the current battlefield. Although his internal strength was not high, he He has experienced a lot of battles, so he naturally made the most secure arrangements.

Lin Fenghuo was also shocked when he saw the bloody sand surrounding Dalamut.It's not that he was shocked by the special skills of the opponent. After all, he has seen people who can control mud and sand. Li Xintian has this ability, but it is rare to be able to defend against the attack of twelve magic crossbows.

"Hehe, you people in the Central Plains are really cunning. You are smart. You often have blind self-confidence. You know that things can't be done but you still do it. But if you are stupid, these conspiracies and tricks are also yours. Figure it out!"

The third horse thief with a cold expression slowly walked down from the wall. It has to be said that the power of the twelve crossbow bolts is still very terrifying. The moment they hit Dalamut, he was stunned Into the city wall.

"Pfft!" He spat out the blood remaining in his mouth, and there was a broken tooth.Thinking about it, even if all the attacks just now were caught by him, it still caused him a lot of injuries.But to say that he was seriously injured and lost his combat effectiveness, it was obviously not to that extent.

……

The change here finally attracted the attention of the horse thieves not far away. Seeing that the third leader of the family was injured, this group of horse thieves who had been licking blood from the knife all the year round naturally wouldn't just watch.

As the group of horse thieves surrounded the city, the guards in Loulan City also became alert. These thieves who specialize in looting houses for a living never know what human nature is. die.

Fortunately, this group of horse thieves had to go through the group of old soldiers holding the magic crossbow to fight back before joining their masters.The crossbow, which was comparable to the blow of a warrior in the awning realm, instantly knocked down a group of horse thieves rushing forward, which made them prepare to launch a unified attack, and their formation suddenly became chaotic.

The horse thieves in the Western Regions were really strong in fighting power, and their running ability and toughness were far superior to those in other places. This was probably an important reason why they could survive in the Western Regions for a long time.But a mob is a mob, and no matter how elite the rivers and lakes are, they will not be able to stand on the stage of the army.

A horse bandit with a hundred men can easily kill an army of a hundred men, and a horse bandit with thousands of men can also fight a well-disciplined army in a siege battle.But once the number reaches [-], let alone a group of horse thieves, even if the number is doubled, they are still no match for the regular army.

The senior management of the Holy War Hall understands this truth, so their attitude towards these horse thieves is very ambiguous, and they adhere to the three principles of "no initiative, no rejection, and no responsibility" for the action of eliminating horse thieves.

And some high-level members of the Devil's Cult obviously saw the ambiguous attitude of the Holy War Hall. They didn't want to create any divisions from the Western Regions. The big guys behind the scenes all have the shadow of the Demon Cult.All the warriors of the Devil's Cult can also obtain the resources they need from it, such as practicing some kind of magic skills.

Of course, in return, the Demon Cult will also instruct these horse thieves to besiege those neutral countries that do not report to the regiment. Neutral countries like Loulan Kingdom are their goals.And the ultimate beneficiary of this is naturally the ruler of the countries in the Western Regions, the Jihad Hall!
In this way, between the Devil's Cult and the Holy War Church, the two super sects that often had minor frictions, reached a tacit understanding on this matter, and both sides took what they needed, which can be regarded as a kind of cooperation.

But if you want to say that the Holy War Church and the Devil's Cult wear a pair of pants, that would be too one-sided. For a huge force like the two of them, it's hard to say who is completely opposed to the other.The bigger the power, the more intricate and complicated the worldly affairs in the arena, and even the suzerains or head teachers of many sects, their ancestors will be the proud disciples of the hostile sects.

This kind of thing also happens frequently, after all, the marriages of the elite disciples in the sect are all decided by the sect's senior officials.On the one hand, it is to consolidate the status of the rivers and lakes, and at the same time, it is to maintain the mutual restraint between the eight sects.

This kind of thing is essential for the continuation of the previous great sect.

……

Seeing this, Lin Fenghuo immediately came to Linley's side. He knew that he might fall into a scuffle next time, and it was unlikely that he would fight this guy named Dalamut alone again.

The battle is imminent!Lin Fenghuo didn't dare to trust him, so he directly teamed up with Lin Lei to deal with the third horse thief, but the other party was obviously affected by the crossbow attack just now, and fell into a disadvantage for a while.

On the other hand, the group of horse thieves who came up were fighting with dozens of veterans of the Shenfeng Battalion, and the situation on the field was not as optimistic as before.Although the soldiers of the Shenfeng Battalion had good personal combat power and had the "Floating Wind Explosive Yuan Jue" at their side, they were still too small in number. Compared with the horse thief's vanguard of 300 people, they still struggled a bit.

Fortunately, not long after the two sides fought, there was a commotion from behind the horse thief, and after a while, Qi Chengcheng and the rest of the veterans of the Shenfeng camp surrounded him from behind.Although there are not many people, but when people are in a hurry, the momentum is no less than that of thousands of troops.Of course, the main thing is the protection of Sandstorm, so that these horse thieves can't see the details clearly.

Coupled with the fact that Dalamt was not in command of the battle among them, they gradually began to fight on their own in the face of emergencies, which quickly tilted the balance of victory to Loulan's side.

When Loulan's southern city fell into a melee, Wu Li and Xiao Yuanfeng in the northern city fell into another situation.A total of seven hundred cavalry gathered outside the north gate of Loulan.

The sandstorm didn't stop, and even the soldiers guarding the city could feel the sting of the gravel on their faces, but these stings were nothing at the moment!The reason why they could clearly see the details of the seven hundred horse thieves was that they were just below the city wall, less than twenty feet away from the city wall.

The guards holding long guns could even faintly hear the excited panting of the horse thieves and the restless snorting of the horses.

"This group of hateful guys actually lied to us! I'm going to invite Lin Fenghuo and Lin Lei to come back. This is obviously the main force of the enemy!" Wu Li muttered angrily as he looked at the horse thieves under the city.

On the contrary, Xiao Yuanfeng beside her was very calm, he waved his hand and said: "Since they can appear here, it means that everything has been arranged, and as expected, the battle at the South Gate is also intense. If you rush over like this, it will easily disturb their morale!"

Having said that, he looked down the city, and he could vaguely see a big bald man sitting on a tall black horse.
