Chapter 137 Battle, Wudang rushes to rescue (5k)

The previously dead city suddenly became noisy.

Bundles of torches lit up in the darkness.

Accompanied by the sounds of swords clashing and crossbow springs pulling.

Under the cover of night, groups of soldiers passed by quickly, and everyone's face was filled with solemnity.

"Dong! Dong! Dong Dong..."

The dull sound of drums suddenly exploded.

Xiong Haishan broke out of the camp and roared: "Calm down!"

"Don't mess around!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the dark night suddenly lit up.

The sky seemed to be on fire at this moment.

Fire rains from the sky!

Arrows burning with fire fell from the sky.

"ah!"

As soon as a soldier ran past, he was carried backwards by a flaming arrow, and the bursting flames ignited him.

Fire burned in the city.

Lin Mang walked out quickly holding the knife.

Not far away, a group of royal guards gathered at the same time.

Lin Mang glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice: "Everyone go up to the city wall to defend against the enemy!"

"yes!"

Everyone shouted in unison and rushed towards the city wall quickly.

Lin Mang stepped on the ground fiercely, and his figure flew up like a sharp arrow shooting into the sky, landing steadily on the city wall.

Almost at the same time, Xiong Haishan also rushed to the city wall.

Seeing Lin Mang falling aside, Xiong Haishan was shocked.

What a wonderful light skill!

However, he had no time to be surprised at this moment, so he hurriedly ordered everyone to guard the city wall and issued orders.

The Chengtian Prefecture Guards initially had more than 4,000 soldiers, but later they were attacked and killed by the rebels. Thousands of them were killed in the battle. Now, there are less than 2,000 truly fighting men.

The combat effectiveness of the various garrison troops is no longer comparable to that of Taizu's time, and too much has been wasted.

The rebels have recently been on a fierce offensive and their morale is high. On the other hand, they are facing unfavorable conditions in the battle. They are retreating steadily and their morale is low.

If there is a sudden surprise attack and there is no leader, the morale of the soldiers will inevitably drop to an extreme.

Fortunately, they were defending the city. Relying on the convenience of the city wall, they were able to defend for a period of time.

Lin Mang held the knife and looked down by the firelight.

I saw a dense crowd of people gathering around two hundred meters away from the city.

They held all kinds of weapons in their hands, including long spears, short soldiers, broadswords, and many even carried farm tools.

Some people were wearing thin clothes, and some were wearing armor that they had torn off from somewhere. They were stained with blood, and they were all kinds of things.

But if you look carefully, you will find that his eyes are bloodshot.

Hate!

crazy!

Kill!

They don't look like humans, but more like a group of wild beasts, a group of hungry wild beasts.

The imperial court only knew that Huguang and Jiangxi had fallen, but it did not know what the scene was like in the occupied areas now.

Starvation everywhere!

Corpses everywhere!

When the rebels entered the city, it was a bloody massacre.

All the evil deeds that can be counted are performed there.

They are not real soldiers and are not bound by military regulations. They are just a group of chaos. In their hearts, there is only robbery and killing.

When they kill the first person, they will be afraid, but as they kill more people, they become numb.

And those people who suffered massacre could only be coerced into joining the rebel army and killed in other cities.

The rebellion is like a snowball, growing bigger and bigger.

Further away, a soldier on horseback, fully armored, stood quietly holding a sword.

The arrow rain came from behind.

It can be seen from their attire that this is a well-equipped regular army, but compared to the rebel army, their number is not large.

Xiong Haishan roared angrily: "Archers, shoot your arrows!"

In an instant, rounds of arrows rained down from the city wall.

The sky was covered with dense black shadows.

"Bang bang!"

The arm-thick crossbow arrows shot out, as if carrying the power of soaring to the sky.

The arrow penetrated the broken armor of a rebel and took his body into a person behind him.

The sound of flesh and blood being torn apart was drowned in the roar of killing.

After penetrating more than ten people in succession, the arrow pierced the ground, its tip swaying slightly.

Broken limbs and broken arms were scattered on the ground.

Suddenly, a person suddenly flew up from the crowd attacking the city. He dodged the dense rain of arrows and quickly approached the city wall.

The man leaped under the city wall, stepped hard on the city wall, used the force to jump up several meters, and quickly climbed up.

Lin Mang stared at the scene below with an indifferent expression.

The moment the man took off, a flash of white sword light quickly passed through the night.

"Pfft!"

A head rose into the sky.

Lin Mang said in a deep voice: "Everyone listens to the order, don't worry about the rebels, pay attention to the martial arts people among the rebels."

"yes!"

A group of royal guards drew their swords out of their sheaths and stood ready with serious expressions on their faces.

Others used crossbows to target martial arts figures among the rebels.

"bow!"

Lin Mang gave a low drink.

Tang Qi on the side quickly handed over his bow and arrows.

Lin Mang grabbed eight arrows, shot them, and drew the bow, all at once.

Phoenix tail arrow!

"Buzz~buzz!"

The air seemed to be torn apart, and the majestic pure Yang Tiangang Qi burned and turned into a ball of raging flames.

The arrow suddenly lit up in the darkness, leaving a long trail.

Those scattered arrows seemed to have eyes, instantly piercing through the eight armor-clad rebels.

Almost at the same time, Lin Mang nocked an arrow and drew the bow again.

"Buzz..."

At this moment, the bright golden arrow was dazzling.

The true energy carried on the arrows cut through the air, split the airflow, and tore the enemy's heart with a scream.

At this moment, among the rebels, an old man wearing armor shouted: "Be careful!"

"There are experts!"

However, before he finished speaking, an arrow pierced his forehead.

The old man's eyes widened angrily, with fear hidden in his eyes.

In the darkness, a roar suddenly sounded.

"How brave!"

Immediately afterwards, a figure in black robes holding a large sword quickly attacked and killed.

The dense arrows were scattered around him.
