Iron Age

The cavalrymen of Xuzhou Mansion rushed over along the main road, one by one proud and high-spirited. Just now the south gate was captured by the rebels from the inside. They lowered the suspension bridge and opened the city gate. These cavalrymen rushed into the city unharmed and found that there was no How much does it take them to do.

Huang Xing is very happy, the official position he bought has been approved, "Wu Pin Long Ban Wei", an absolutely cool name.Now that he is an officer, although there is no real shortage, he can justifiably put on his armor and follow the garrison to join in the fun, and go to the iron factory to avenge his revenge.Thinking of taking that unruly young lady home soon, he couldn't help but chuckle happily.

Gao Defen was also very happy. He entered the iron factory without a single soldier. It was a great achievement. Just now at the south gate, he saw a man who was defending the city in a deadly battle. It was very similar to whipping and humiliating the imperial army ginseng general, so he asked people to cut off the head of the corpse and hang it in front of the horse, feeling as excited as hanging the head of a real ox ginseng general.

The horses under the crotch of the cavalry guarding Xuzhou Mansion are Sichuan horses and Dian horses. They are not big in stature.But after all, it was thousands of fresh troops, and a large group of cavalry drove over mightily.

The path that the rebels gave way to was just blocked by cavalry. Peng Jingrong and her group were blocked and surrounded on all sides. Huang Xing couldn't help but laugh dumbfounded when he saw the second young lady who had been arrogant for a while doing robbery in embarrassment. , shouted in the voice of the male duck: "Little lady, you still haven't escaped my son... no, it's my general's Wuzhishan, come here, take them down for me." Of course he wouldn't care about any hostages. hostage.

"No!" Yu Hualong, who was following behind, shouted before the second lady got angry, "High defense, the thief has kidnapped the dog, you must not do anything."

Gao Shoubing immediately bowed slightly and said proudly: "My lord, I can't fully salute you with my humble armor, and now my lord is also a member of the party who has been ordered by the imperial court. How can you let go of collusion because of public affairs? What about the traitors of the Qing Dynasty?"

According to the secret agreement between Yu Hualong and Jiu Qiansui, he will launch an attack on the first day of the new year to seize the factory owner's position, and the imperial court will send troops to assist him. After sealing the order, his son will immediately have the false title of Yuanwailang. Although they are all false titles, the scarlet official uniform embroidered with golden pheasants is a serious guy, a second-rank official appointed by the imperial court to manage the iron factory , Yu Hualong, who has been a white man for generations, took the risk.

So now Gao Shoubei claims to be a humble job, and he seems very respectful. In fact, he has a secret order to eradicate all forces in the iron factory. The location of the factory is on the front line, and its own force is strong, so it has been delayed for a long time.

Yu Hualong made a rebellion and engulfed many iron guard soldiers who didn't know the truth. The middle and lower rank officers who were loyal to the eldest lady had already been secretly arrested by him from home during the Chinese New Year holiday, so the rebellion went relatively smoothly.Seeing that the officers and soldiers insisted on arresting the second lady and putting his son in danger, Yu Hualong got a little angry and put on the airs of a second-rank officer and ordered Gao Bing: "Gao Bing, first order your people to withdraw, I will make my own arrangements. .”

Gao Shoubei was worried that he couldn't find an excuse to make trouble, and his face changed when he heard the words: "This will be the defense of Xuzhou Mansion, not the small officials of your Ministry of Industry, left and right, take down these thieves for me."

Yu Hualong also turned his face: "Let's see who dares to make a move!"

The crossbow of the rebels was quickly pushed over and aimed at the officers and soldiers. A long row of sharp triangular arrows on the ammunition rack stimulated the eyes of the officers and soldiers. This thing is the nemesis of the cavalry when fired. It is powerful and fast. Bringing a horse through is a chill, not to mention that the two sides are so close now that the cavalry has no buffer zone for charging.

The two sides are in a stalemate, the weapons are raised, and the atmosphere is gradually freezing.

Peng Jingrong wanted to cry, but the cold sweat still appeared on the tip of her nose in the cold weather. The situation was more complicated and dangerous than before. There were weapons in front, back, left, and right. A hostage in her hand was only effective against a group of enemies. The only one who could fight was Song Qingfeng. It's powerful, but it can't withstand thousands of troops. It's over, and it must not be captured!She held a long dagger inlaid with gold and white jade handle tightly in her left hand, and a spring-loaded gun in her right hand. She made up her mind that if the opponent committed suicide as soon as he charged, she would definitely not be captured and insulted alive.

Liu Ziguang wore Iron Guard armor and mixed in the crowd, taking advantage of the chaos and gradually squeezed to the front position of the rebels.

In his hand is an ordinary narrow-edged wild goose feather saber, which is less than one meter long. Just now, he cut off a few guys in armor and then rolled the blade. A long-handled, thick-backed, straight-bladed horse-chopping knife stood nearby, reached out and patted the man on the shoulder, saying, "I'll borrow your knife."

Before the personal guard could react, he felt that his hands were empty, and a figure passed by.Then there was a scream in his ears, and his saber slashed like a windmill in the hands of a man in rebel uniform, setting off a bloody storm in his own team.

Liu Ziguang has now mastered the trick. Instead of cutting the enemy's armor, he uses swift speed and precise movements to cut people's necks. Before the rebels even have time to see the opponent's moves clearly, their sight becomes very high, and then falls again. On the ground, only snow can be seen.Countless headless chambers spurted blood into the sky, and countless heads with helmets rolled on the ground.

Liu Ziguang opened a corridor of flesh and blood, and shouted at Peng Jingrong's gang: "Go to the north gate and leave the city!" Go north as he said.

The crossbow was originally facing the officers and soldiers, but now an enemy appeared in his formation, he turned the head of the crossbow in a hurry, but he was afraid that he would accidentally injure his own people and dare not release it randomly. After all, the garrison was a military commander. He was a bit courageous. He saw that although the opponent was brave, there was only one person. Relying on his large number of cavalry, he ordered to pursue him.

The rebels were afraid of hurting Yu Xiaolong, so they didn't dare to encircle them. They let Liu Ziguang kill and lead Peng Jingrong and his party to go north. The officers and soldiers took the lead in chasing after them. People and horses chased the small team along the avenue in the city.

After Liu Ziguang waved the horse-chopping knife, several officers and soldiers stepped forward a little bit, and they were all cut into two sections by him. They were so frightened that they only dared to follow and did not dare to attack by force. Some officers and soldiers with bows bent their bows and shot arrows on horseback , but their riding and archery skills are too poor, the slightly threatening arrow was blocked by the opponent, but Peng Jingrong, who was broken behind the small team, shot over six people with a revolving spring force gun. It takes a lot of strength to pull the spring , Peng Jingrong threw the gun to an inner guard to let him reload, then took the revolver thrown by her sister and continued to shoot.

Liu Ziguang covered Peng Jingrong with his body, and the two fought side by side. Although he didn't know who this iron warrior was, there was an inexplicable familiar feeling in Peng Jingrong's heart. The precise and sharp knife skills, steady steps, and slightly melancholy eyes under the mask , so that the girl felt that if she could snuggle into his arms, no matter how big the wind and rain were, she would not be afraid.

Song Qingfeng opened the way ahead, the north gate, great, I was just about to take everyone to the north gate, the man in the iron mask has a strange way of kung fu, no pretense, just fast, it seems that there are so many masters hidden in the iron factory .

The road to the north gate was clear, and the large group of troops followed a small group of remnants slowly, and gradually came to the city wall. The city gate was still wide open, and the defense of the entire north gate was useless.

Liu Ziguang jumped up suddenly, chopped several cavalrymen off their horses, frightened the officers and soldiers and pulled the reins in a hurry, not daring to approach. When Liu Ziguang landed, he had already held the reins in his hand. Pulling it over, Liu Ziguang said to him: "Miss, take your sister and flee north, I will guard the city gate here."

This voice is very familiar, is it him?impossible!Although his martial arts are good, they are definitely not as good as this, but his feeling, body shape, eyes, and voice are all so similar. Peng Jingrong asked tremblingly, "Who are you? Why did you help me?"

Liu Ziguang felt that there was nothing to hide, and was about to lift his mask to answer, but Gao Defen on the opposite side was already in a hurry, and asked them to grab the horse and leave the city, so what a chase!They hid behind and issued a strict order, and immediately surrounded them at the gate of the city. Whoever dared to fight bravely, followed the military law.

In desperation, Liu Ziguang didn't have time to lift his mask to reveal his identity. He grabbed Peng Jingrong's slender waist, put her on the horse, and slapped the horse's buttocks hard. Running, the inner guard with good eyesight has already snatched over and took the other reins, and hurriedly helped the second miss on the horse to escape for her life. The second miss took a deep look at the mysterious iron-masked warrior. Surrounded by crowds, they snatched the door away.

The officers and soldiers swarmed up, Liu Ziguang fought while retreating, and he stopped retreating when he retreated to the gate of the city. The gate of the city is much narrower than the street. With his agility, he can completely guard the gate with one man, and no one can open it.After hacking several cavalry, Liu Ziguang drew a line on the bluestone floor with his knife, and shouted sharply: "Whoever crosses this line will die!"

The officers and soldiers took a few steps back in panic, but they were pushed by the people who swarmed up from behind. Liu Ziguang swung his knife and slashed wildly. Dead bodies were quickly piled up on the bluestone slab, and the blood flowed all over the ground. The greasy slab made the cavalry swarming over before they could get close to Liu Ziguang. The officer shouted angrily, and there was the dull sound of weapons piercing into flesh.The corpses were built higher and higher, and even the horses could not pass them.

He was so defensive that he almost jumped off his horse. A thousand cavalrymen were blocked by one person and couldn't get out. It was said that the officers and soldiers of Xuzhou government lost all face. "Send people to the city wall and climb out to chase them." I can figure it out.

Yu Hualong also led the team over. The two strikes were friendly after all, and he couldn't turn his face for the time being. He knocked on the belly of the horse, came to Gao Shoubei, and suggested: "Gao Shoubei ask your people to retreat and replace them with my crossbow. Come on." Gao Shoubing was worrying about losing so many precious cavalry, and he was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Young Minister Yu, then I'll have to work, and the flag officer quickly called the gold."

When the cavalry heard the sound of gold, they receded like a tide. The ten chariot crossbows were all replaced with killing arrows with three-edged arrows. They formed a semicircle and aimed at Liu Ziguang inside the city gate.
