Chapter 368 Night Attack
In the afterglow, it can be seen that several people's lips are moving slightly and talking with dense sound transmission. Not long after, a man's questioning voice came from Xiao Ran's ears. Xiao Ran knew the code in Sudan Qing's notes and answered calmly. The man nodded slightly and passed. It was agreed that we would leave in batches and meet in a barren mountain outside the city.
Xiao Ran roughly counted at least ten people, and the lowest level of martial arts is also the realm of great success. I don't know what action will be done to summon these people. In the ruined temple in the barren mountains outside the city, people wearing masks arrived one after another. Standing with Xiao Ran, as if waiting for someone. After half an hour, everyone came one after another and showed the "Thousand Feather Order" in their hands.
"Cough..." A hunchbacked old man walked in from the door, his pace was slow and his eyes were deep. Everyone shouted "Mr. Qiu" respectfully.
The hunchbacked old man glanced at the scene and took a count of people and said, "16 people, is there anyone else who hasn't arrived? Humph!"
"The Lord has issued an order, and the court is ready to integrate troops to deal with the Xia family. Here is a list of you who are responsible for assassinating these court-leading generals. Remember that your life was given by the Lord, and remember how the court treated you. Even if it is sacrificed, it can't ruin the master's plan.
"The Lord is wise, and we will always follow the Lord." Everyone answered in unison.
The old man smiled and nodded: "Group of four, divided into four groups. Start tomorrow, and you don't have to come back to recover if you don't complete the task. This is the elixir given by the Lord, which can temporarily increase your skills by 40%, one per person, and then.
"Thank you for your kindness!" He answered in unison again.
No one asked why in the whole action. They just need to follow the order. It seems that everyone has a deep hatred for the emperor Li Xian. Why did Qianyulou help the Xia family? Is there any secret between them? Xiao Ran's own puzzle has not been solved, and he has fallen into a new puzzle.
The court's many persuasion failed, and finally began to treat the Xia family on a large scale. Together with the war, a large number of people fled south. The six states under the jurisdiction of the Xia family were besieged and narrowed their scope step by step, trying to trap the Xia family to death. Siege ladders, stone throwers, giant crossbows... are in place one after another, and a general attack may be launched at any time. The Xia family has two major military divisions, Xia Shuangtian, the "God of War" and Xia Ruoyan, the "Female Zhuge". Even if the number of the Tang army is several times that of the Xia family, it is still difficult to make progress, and it is unlikely to fight quickly.
The night was dark, and the Tang army besieged the five states and did not attack for a long time. The military camp tent is brightly lit, three steps and one post, five steps and one whistle, and the precautions are very strict. There were countless assassinations of the other generals before the war, and they were secretly vigilant. In the camouflaged grain and grass pile, the moonlight shone on the sword, and the cold light flashed. Liu Xiaolai, Ye Ningxue and other elite disciples of the Wulin League held blades and waited quietly. Their task is to protect the lives of these Tang generals. The Xia family's rebellion was a great act of rebellion, helping the court to suppress traitors and return peace to the world. Only when the civil strife subsides can we make every effort to fight against the invading Turkic army. At present, the Tubo army can only delay them, and the real reversal depends on themselves.
"It's coming!" Liu Siyue suddenly said. Everyone immediately became alert and couldn't help clenching the weapons in their hands. Through the firelight, a group of people wearing night clothes can be seen moving quickly to the main tent through the position of the tent. The candlelight in the main tent was bright, and it was obviously discussing the siege of the city.
"The above ordered us to attack the city again." A general frowned.
"It's really hard to stand and talk. The court is the dominant martial arts family. If they have the ability, they will try to attack by themselves. If they hadn't forced the Xia family to rebel, the Turks would not have had the courage to come in. Not to mention Los Angeles, the other four states are solid and have no way to do it. After several trials, the soldiers were killed and injured.
"What's the use of saying this? You go back to rectify each other and attack the city tomorrow..." Before the words were finished, the tent was cut open several times, and several men in black filed with weapons. At first, a soft whip swept over and wanted to surround everyone. The generals dodged together, and the people in front of them avoided the back and didn't have time to react. They hurriedly turned around and poured real gas with a soft whip, as if an iron rod was firmly hit on the back, and immediately flew out.
Fortunately, the general wore weapons and pulled out his sword to fight with the people. The division of the assassin is clear. Xiao Ran's group of four people are responsible for killing a veteran who is well arduing troops, who is also from a martial arts family. It is already a great realm, which is quite difficult to deal with. Xiao Ran used a big knife, and the other three used claw covers, eyebrow sticks and daggers respectively. In order not to arouse the suspicion of his companions, Xiao Ran also suppressed his power to the level of Dacheng the day after tomorrow. For a moment, two vice generals were seriously injured.
"Do not be presumptuous!" Jianglong Luohan shouted loudly, and a huge string of Buddha beads flew towards Xiao Ran. Xiao Ran stopped with a knife and retreated a few steps in a series of shock. Jingjue grabbed the Buddha beads and wrapped them around his arm. His whole hand looked thicker than human legs, and each punch was extremely powerful, which was not inferior to the "Prajna Dragon and Elephant Gong" of Shaolin Temple. After not seeing each other for several years, his skills have also increased greatly.
When the "Qianyu Tower" saw the other party's reinforcements arrived, they had no intention of retreating. An acquired peak master in the team held a double ring and stopped Jingjue: "Quick battle!"
"Look for death!" With a soft hum, Qingfeng sword picked several sword flowers to cover his whole body. The sword was killed, and two assassins in the realm of Dacheng died in one move. Ye Ningxue came with a long sword in hand. She is still as dusty as a nine-day fairy and does not eat fireworks. I haven't seen her for three years, and she has also reached the peak of the day after tomorrow. Xiao Ran can feel that she has accumulated for a long time. As long as she takes that step, she can reach the innate realm. I don't know why it hasn't hit the bottleneck for a long time.
In addition to Liu Siyue, Liu Xiaolai and others who arrived later, the strength of the two sides is almost the same. There is a steady stream of soldiers coming in the direction of the fight, and it is difficult to go once surrounded. Xiao Ran fought and retreated, back to back to form an encirclement. If it really doesn't work, I have to break out by myself.
"Kill!" The shocking shouts and the sound of horses' hoofs are dense. Suddenly, there was a sound of fighting in the distance. The gate of the besieged Shangzhou city opened, and a team of light cavalry took advantage of the night to kill the Tang army battalion under the cover of archers.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack..." The scout of the watchtower shouted two words, and an arrow fell down through his throat.
No one expected that the soldiers who had been huddled in the city would raid the city. The fortifications in advance were not enough. The main general was still entangled by the assassins of Qianyu Tower. The dragons had no leader and were defeated face to face. Horseshoes raised dust and danced, firelighted everywhere, corpses were everywhere, weapons intertwined, moaning and howling, and chaos in the field.
The elites of the Wulin League had to divide their hands to kill the attacking generals of the Xia family, so as to stabilize the situation and launch a counterattack. Those generals are also not stupid, and they are scattered under the protection of the masters to avoid being killed by them. Ye Ningxue mentioned the veteran who was good at platooning and said, "Go to support General Xu. You don't have to worry about this."
"What a big tone, and I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue." The old man in black turned the iron out and hooked his right foot sharply. Ye Ningxue's long sword swings away, and her toes jumped up little by little. In the "Jade Girl Swordsmanship", a trick of "fishing the moon in the water" stabbed the old man's eyebrows from top to bottom. In front of her eyebrows, Ye Ningxue suddenly felt the strong wind behind her. Before he could turn around, he pointed his right instep with the tip of his left foot to make the light skill of the ladder cloud rise by azhang, and the long sword in his hand interweaved a silver lotus straight down.
One person raised a gun and plunged straight into the silver lotus. The other was short and specialized in the plate, ready to attack as soon as Ye Ningxue landed. Xiao Ran took a big knife in his hand and cut the Tang soldiers who came to fish in troubled waters. The steel gun in the hand of the man with the long gun was broken, and he was slapped in the chest by Ye Ningxue and flew out backwards. The old man's "phoenix nodded" and almost passed Ye Ningxue's cheek, and the trend of his fall changed and went to his jade neck like a hook. Ye Ningxue's long sword fought with the short man and couldn't pull it out at all. She leaned forward and kicked on the iron crutch with one foot.
"Good opportunity to kill her." The old man roared at Xiao Ran that it was really difficult to change in such a situation. Xiao Ran's eyes flashed, and blood splashed on the ground with a big knife. The abductor was cut into two sections. He died and couldn't believe the scene in front of him.
