Chapter 43 Killing and being killed
Following Can Yun's command, ten falcons broke out of their cages and flew into the sky.
"Whoosh, whoosh..." Several thick crossbow arrows broke through the wind and shot directly at the falcon.
However, these falcons are not ordinary falcons. They have been specially trained by professionals since they were young. Each one is hard-earned and extremely smart... Think about it, even if they are made with a lot of money, they will be trained by professionals.
The Phoenix Banner can only be equipped with one for every 100 people.
Therefore, these falcons naturally lived up to expectations. Only two falcons were unfortunately shot and killed when the opponent's crossbows fired continuously. The other eight actually took off at high speed, and all of them were out of range and flew outwards in unison.
Until the falcons dispersed, a cigarette rocket rose into the sky with the roar of the wind. It broke through the layers of rain curtains and finally exploded in the sky, taking on the appearance of a bloody phoenix, which lasted for a long time.
This is the Blood Phoenix Banner's first-level danger signal for help. Even if it is placed in the entire Beiyu Army, only the Blood Phoenix Banner is used. And in the entire Beiyu Army, there is also an ironclad order. If the Blood Phoenix Banner asks for help, you can see
Sergeant, we must carry out rescue at all costs as soon as possible... In the eleventh year of Longshuo, there was a situation where the Blood Phoenix Banner issued a first-level fireworks order for help, and the border army was not rescued in time. Afterwards, the top commander of the border army was
They were beheaded, and the remaining officers were all demoted one level and given fifty lashes, while ordinary soldiers were punished by three months' ringing.
However, no one sympathized with the beheaded officer and the border troops who were unable to rescue him in time. Because these ten thousand blood phoenix flags were Mu Qingen's forbidden army, directly commanded by successive Beiyu lords. Although Tie Kuangyun died
As the deputy commander, he only has the authority to manage these Blood Phoenix Banner soldiers, but not to mobilize them... This shows the seriousness of the Blood Phoenix Banner's first-level danger request for help.
Sure enough, just as the falcons were released and the bloody phoenix fireworks soared into the sky, the group of cavalrymen who ambushed Mu Qiuhuang also launched a charge one by one.
When Mu Qiuhuang saw this, he couldn't help but feel calm. The other party did not dare to waste time, which meant that they were afraid of the arrival of reinforcements. This also showed that these were not Tan Bai Ming's people, at least... the order to ambush him was not Tan Bai's.
Ringing.
"Kill all their cavalry, don't get into the range of the crossbows, and force them to come out for close combat." Mu Qiuhuang calmly ordered Can Yun, with a hint of indifference on his face.
"I understand," Can Yun replied, leading the Blood Phoenix Banner sergeants to charge towards the cavalry on the opposite side.
"Dongxue, please protect sir." Mu Qiuhuang said to Dongxue.
"No, let Dongxue help you." Gu Chenyuan seemed to have guessed what Mu Qiuhuang was going to do, so he said, "Although I have not returned to my peak state, self-preservation is not a problem."
"Okay." Mu Qiuhuang nodded to Gu Chenyuan, and then said to Dongxue: "Follow me and destroy the two ballistas."
"Yes." Dongxue responded.
After Mu Qiuhuang said this, he drew out the sword from his waist and rushed towards the place where the crossbow had just shot.
Dongxue held a long sword and followed closely behind.
Taoist Qingya saw Mu Qiuhuang and Dong Xue leaving, and he followed closely behind.
"Whoosh, whoosh..." Three huge crossbow arrows roared towards Mu Qiuhuang.
With a "stab" sound, Mu Qiuhuang did not dodge, but deliberately cut the crossbow arrow in front of her in two with her scimitar.
With a "click" sound, Dongxue also cut off the crossbow arrow that was shot at her.
Only Taoist Qingya jumped up and stepped on the crossbow arrow.
The crossbow arrows hit the ground.
Before the second crossbow shot, Mu Qiuhuang and the others had already reached a long distance.
"Whoosh, whoosh..." The dense bows and arrows were shot again. Although the bows and arrows were not as powerful as the crossbows and had a far range, their density was even greater, as if they had already formed a rain of arrows.
"Ding, jingle..." The sword in Mu Qiuhuang's hand danced in an airtight manner, and all the arrows fell to the ground. Dong Xue danced with the long sword in her hand, and the same was true. Although Taoist Qingya did not hold a weapon, he had a pair of
Even with his long sleeves dancing, these bows and arrows still couldn't hurt him at all.
"We have entered the bow and arrow range, roll up the bead curtain." Mu Qiuhuang said towards Dongxue.
Dongxue also understood Mu Qiuhuang's meaning instantly.
"Rolling bead curtain."
"Roll up the bead curtain again."
Mu Qiuhuang and Dong Xue simultaneously used the rolling bead curtain in the Eight Desolations Sword Sutra. The two rolling bead curtains were superimposed, and their power naturally increased dramatically.
When the wind blows, the raindrops flow backwards. The bows and arrows that were shot towards them are also shot back under these two rolling bead curtains.
"Puff, puff..." came the sound of crossbow arrows tearing flesh apart. At this point, no more bows and arrows were shot in the forest. Although there were a few thick crossbow arrows that broke through the bead curtain, these few sparse crossbow arrows were extremely powerful.
, but it was easy for Mu Qiuhuang and the three of them to avoid it.
In the field, the Blood Phoenix Banner led by Can Yun also charged into the same place with the cavalry. For a moment, hand crossbows were shooting at each other, and straight swords were slashing at each other. The field was also instantly covered with blood and flesh, and the war horses neighed, and the sound of sharp blades entering the body was accompanied.
There was the sound of men falling from their horses... But don't forget who the Blood Phoenix Banner is? They roamed the battlefield without a single defeat and were known as the "Scythe of Death". In the past, during the battle at Mangdang Mountain, the Blood Phoenix Banner had less than a hundred people.
Sergeant, he killed the golden cavalry several times his own, but in the end the Blood Phoenix Banner was victorious. From this, we can also see the combat power of the Blood Phoenix Banner. However, although this unknown cavalry has less combat power and equipment than the Blood Phoenix Banner,
The soldiers of the Phoenix Banner were not even close to each other, but they were defeated by their large numbers. Moreover, they seemed to understand the Blood Phoenix Banner's tactics very well. When the two armies came into contact, they actually relied on their strength in numbers.
Separating all the blood phoenix flag soldiers... Therefore, although the blood phoenix flag soldiers have strong individual combat qualities, the war also fell into a tense situation for a while.
With a "bang", Mu Qiuhuang's feet landed on the ground, splashing mud and water all over the ground. At this time, he finally reached the forest. Looking closely, he saw two ballistas standing not far from him.
.Looking at the two ballistas that shot his carriage into pieces, Mu Qiuhuang couldn't help but get angry. At the same time, he waved his scimitar and long sword. One of them was "Sword Two, Rolling Bead Curtain", and the other was "Angrily Raising the Sword, Starting a Prairie Fire."
", the sword and the sword roared at the same time and hit the ballista directly. The two ballistas were struck to pieces by this blow.
At the same time, there was a sword, and the light of the sword flickered. One person stabbed straight at him with a sword, and another person slashed him with a sword. When Mu Qiuhuang saw this, he was not afraid at all, and he also used sword to sword, and sword to sword. However,
As soon as they made contact, Mu Qiuhuang's heart froze because he felt that these two people were actually ninth grade.
"Sir, let me help you."
Fortunately, Dong Xue arrived in time and stabbed the sword holder with his sword. Seeing this, the sword holder had no choice but to turn around and fight Dong Xue. As a result, Mu Qiuhuang also relaxed from the pressure. The sword struck, and instantly
The ninth-level master who used the sword was pressed down, and he couldn't breathe. "Cang Langlang" had several swords unsheathed at the same time, wanting to help the sword wielder. However, they forgot that except for Mu Qiu, everyone present
In addition to Huang and Dongxue, there was also Taoist Qingya. Taoist Qingya was outnumbered, but he did not fall behind at all.
The time did not last long before a "clang" was heard as Mu Qiuhuang's scimitar collided with the opposite ghost-headed sword.
.But don't forget, Mu Qiuhuang also has a sword. Just when the swords touched each other, Mu Qiuhuang's long sword made a "puff" sound and sank into the opponent's throat. The sword-wielding Jiu...
The first-grade master opened his mouth wide. Mu Qiuhuang succeeded in the attack and drew out his Chuxue Sword. With a "plop", the ninth-grade master fell to the ground and died.
However, Mu Qiuhuang had no intention of lamenting that he had killed a ninth-grade master. He raised his head and glanced at Dongxue. Seeing that Dongxue had the upper hand, Mu Qiuhuang also turned around to help Qingya.
With the addition of Mu Qiuhuang, the expressions of the group of people who fought against Taoist Qingya also changed suddenly. In fact, these people were all masters of the seventh and eighth levels. Compared with the one who was defeated by Mu Qiuhuang,
Mo Bai, the swordsman from Shu who is ranked eighth among the top ten masters in the world, is still a step behind in terms of strength. Previously, the reason why Qingya was able to fight with them was not only because they had the advantage in numbers, but also because Qingya had the upper hand.
Taoist Ya did not kill anyone. However, they were not so lucky at this moment. Mu Qiuhuang was already decisive in killing, and at this time, he left no room for action. Every time he slashed with his sword and thrust out with his sword, there was
One person fell to the ground with a "plop", either dead or injured. When Taoist Qingya saw Mu Qiuhuang's fierce attack and sharp eyes, he naturally understood the anxiety in his heart and the anger hidden under his calm face. So, he
He kept his hand and punched directly, killing the person closest to him.
Seeing this, Mu Qiuhuang glanced at Taoist Qingya and said guiltily: "Donkey breeder, why are you doing this?"
Taoist Qingya smiled slightly and responded: "Your Highness, please don't feel guilty towards Xiaodao. Xiaodao just doesn't want to kill, it doesn't mean he can't kill...Besides, we are friends, right?"
"Yes." Mu Qiuhuang nodded and said, "I can't thank you enough for your kindness."
"Bang, bang..."
"Puff, puff..."
"Thump, thump..."
Every time Taoist Qingya punched out, every time Mu Qiuhuang slashed with his sword, and every time his sword thrust out, one person fell to the ground, losing their fighting power... Not long after, this group of people were also killed by Taoist Mu Qiuhuang and Qingya.
Death. At the same time, Dongxue also captured the sword master alive.
"Who sent you here?" Mu Qiuhuang asked.
The sword master glanced at Mu Qiuhuang but said nothing.
With a "stab" sound, blood spattered and one of the man's arms was cut off by Mu Qiuhuang.
Mu Qiuhuang's words were indifferent and said without any fireworks: "I am Mu Qiuhuang, the crown prince of Beiyu. I don't know who sent you, but you dare to ambush me in Beiyu? But don't worry. I will do it afterwards.
Find out your mentors and family members, kill them all, and make them pay for what you did today."
After hearing Mu Qiuhuang's self-reported name, the man's face suddenly changed, a drop of cold sweat broke out, and he tremblingly said: "I tell you everything, I just ask you to let my family go. I belong to 'Tian Luo', codenamed Evil Sword"
, the one you killed was Ghost Sword. We all came under orders, I really don’t know the person you want to kill is you, and I don’t know who paid for it..."
"Okay, I promise to spare your family's life." Mu Qiuhuang said coldly.
"Thank you." The man thanked Mu Qiuhuang, then punched himself in the throat and fell to the ground.
Hearing this, Dongxue explained to Mu Qiuhuang: "Tianluo is an underground killer organization. It is rumored that it was secretly formed by Pingjin Hou. However, Pingjin Hou never denied this."
