Riding the Pheonix Chapter 425: Sneak attack
"What do they want to do?" Ning Xiu wondered, "There are just a few people, can't they do anything?"
Ming Wei was simple and rude: "No matter what you want to do, it's definitely not a good thing. Stop it first."
"Okay."
The two of them jumped up and entered the position.
The Qi army's array was torn open by the Snow Wolf Guards.
Although most of them were blocked, there were still dozens of cavalry that shook off the pursuit and interception of the Qi army and headed straight for the Chinese army.
The general of the Chinese army discovered it and ordered the archers to prepare.
However, their speed was too fast, only a few of them were injured, and the rest rushed to the front and started to chop with their swords.
"They are not the barbarians who captured the gravel slope." Zong Xu squinted his eyes for a while.
"General, it's the Snow Wolf Guards!" the general in charge of intelligence shouted, "the personal guards of Lord Hu Sutu!"
Zong Xu raised his head and looked around.
Since the Snow Wolf Guard is here, Su Tu is also nearby?
He turned around and asked: "What happened to the guards who stole the city?"
"Already in." The guard captain replied, paused, and asked him again, "General, do we want to send someone to search the surrounding area? Lord Hu Sutu must be watching us somewhere."
Zong Xu said: "Now is not the time to ignore him. Pay attention to the city. As soon as the city gate opens, we will enter the city immediately!"
"Yes."
Zong Xu sighed in his heart.
Su Tu must want to kill him, right? In fact, this is also a good opportunity to kill Su Tu. But there are not enough manpower, so we can only take back the gravel **** first.
The Snow Wolf Guards kept attacking the Chinese army array. Even though their numbers were getting smaller and smaller, they still had no intention of stopping. Zong Xu was also moved by this.
"This new Hu Lord Su Tu is really powerful, and his bodyguards are so brave."
The guard captain said: "Your guards are no worse than his!"
Zong Xu laughed and ordered: "Strictly investigate the situation of the Chinese army immediately. If they are so willing to sacrifice their lives, they must have something up their sleeve."
"Yes."
Zong Xu was not careless, but some things were beyond his concept.
On the other side, Mingwei and Ning Xiu ran after the suspicious person for a while, and happened to fly into a stray arrow, and the person fell down.
The two paused for a moment and wanted to chase the others. Unexpectedly, not long after they chased, all these suspicious characters died one by one. Either they were hacked to death, or they were trampled to death by horses, and no one was left alive.
Ning Xiu stopped, a little confused: "All dead?"
Isn’t it too easy? These people must have some evil intentions when they enter the battlefield in such a sneaky way, but they die so easily?
Mingwei was also puzzled. She stood for a while and suddenly felt an unusual aura. Her expression changed and she shouted: "They are not dead!"
The most indispensable thing on the battlefield is dead people.
The battle lasted all day, and dead bodies lay all around.
Because it was a light cavalry attack, the road was cut off before the civilians could catch up. Now that they had no one to clean the battlefield, there seemed to be more corpses.
Not long after those suspicious figures fell, a plume of smoke escaped and entered another relatively intact body.
Soon, the corpse stood up unsteadily and continued to run forward.
When this corpse is also knocked down, another one will be replaced.
When Mingwei found out, the other party had already changed several bodies.
She released her spiritual thoughts and looked for them one by one.
"Found it!" After finding one of them, she and Ning Xiu ran away again.
The man seemed to be aware of them, and quickly "died" and got up again.
The frequent replacement of corpses makes it difficult for Mingwei to track him.
Ning Xiu asked in surprise: "Doesn't it mean they can't be killed if they are like this?"
"No." Mingwei pulled out the small crossbow from his sleeve and aimed at the man, "They won't choose headless corpses to live as parasites. In other words, just chop off their heads."
As soon as he finished speaking, the crossbow arrow was shot out, and with a "whoosh" sound, a powerful force shot into the back of the man's head. His brain burst and he fell to the ground dead.
Mingwei waited for a while, but didn't feel that he had changed his body, so he said: "It works, let's continue looking for others."
"Okay."
Since the opponent is not a human being, the sonic attack on the will is useless.
Ning Xiu pulled out the sword hidden in the piano body.
The slender sword body flashed with a faint cold light in the moonlight.
Ming smiled and said: "This is my first time seeing you use a sword. I don't know how it compares to your piano skills."
Ning Xiu shook his head: "I am good at piano skills, but my swordsmanship is not necessarily better than that of my junior brother. However," there was a rare hint of murderous intent in his thin voice, "killing people is enough."
The two of them searched separately and killed each of the living dead, or shot them in the head.
At this time, a Qi soldier approached Zong Xu with an object in his hand and shouted loudly: "General! I discovered the location of Lord Hu. Look, this is his king's hat!"
Zong Xu paused for a moment, turned around and told his bodyguard: "Go and have a look."
"Yes."
The soldier was stopped as soon as he approached the guard. The captain of the guard walked over and said a few words to him, while confirming whether the king's hat in his hand was real. The barbarians used the gems on the hat as a symbol of identity. , it is not difficult to distinguish.
In order to distinguish the hats, he called a torch.
……
Su Tu on the hillside, when the Snow Wolf Guards entered the formation, stared closely at the Chinese army and took aim, hooking the hanging knife on the crossbow machine.
Under the impact of the Snow Wolf Guard, the Chinese army moved from time to time and occasionally entered his shooting range.
Su Tu was very patient and waited quietly.
But this alone is not enough.
There was no firelight, but with the moonlight, Zong Xu's position could not be seen clearly.
At this moment, the old servant of Princess Yongqing took action...
The fire appeared, Su Tu's eyes lit up, and he pulled the hanging knife without hesitation!
Dozens of crossbow arrows ~IndoMTL.com~ detached from the crossbow machine and shot at Zong Xu of the Chinese army!
The chance is not very good, it just barely entered the shooting range, and there were a lot of shield guards.
But this was the best opportunity he could find.
The crossbow arrows are powerful and can shoot multiple arrows at one time, so there is a high chance of hitting Zong Xu!
When the soldier approached the Chinese army, Mingwei saw it.
She was shocked when she sensed the aura on the man's body, and rushed forward quickly: "General Zong, that's a spy!"
Hearing her cry, Zong Xu immediately shouted: "Dun Li!"
The defensive array was immediately set up.
The crossbow arrows were flying in mid-air.
The guard captain saw it and shouted: "Heaven!"
Before he finished speaking these two words, the crossbow arrow had already been fired.
It was like heavy rain, hitting the defense array.
"Puff! Puff!" The sound of being shot sounded together with the screams.
"General!" The guard captain rushed over.
Ning Xiu chopped off the man's head with a sword, turned around and saw Zong Xu fell from his horse.
He was also hit by an arrow.
Ming Wei's heart felt cold. She squeezed in and saw Zong Xu being supported by his guards. A crossbow arrow penetrated his shoulder blade and was almost nailed to the ground.
"I'm fine, it's not a critical thing." Zong Xu waved his hand and asked the captain, "Has the city gate been stolen?"
Just when the guard captain was about to answer, the messenger over there had already rushed over shouting: "The city gate is open, the city gate is open!"
Zong Xu smiled, still carrying the crossbow on his shoulder, and mounted his horse again: "Let's go into the city!"
Ming was slightly relieved.
She did not follow him into the city, but looked towards the direction where the crossbow arrow was coming from, pointed her toes, and swept towards that direction.
