Aggrieved Fish Sprite

People in Fucheng, Nanping County hid in their houses tremblingly, some even got under the bed and covered their heads with quilts.

However, the sound of shouting and killing outside the city was still so clear, making people wonder, how many people are there in the rebellious army?

Didn't the people in the government say tens of thousands?

He also said that the combined number of officers, soldiers and common people in their Fucheng is ten times more than that of those bandits, and the city will never be lost.

"...This is talking nonsense with your eyes open! How could there be only tens of thousands of people? This movement is less than hundreds of thousands."

The people in the city were inexplicably panicked, bloody people had already taken the hatchets and kitchen knives at home and were sharpening them, and more people would just chant Tathagata Buddha and Taishang Laojun in a hurry.

More than ten years ago, the three kings of Chu fought against each other, and the flames of war did not reach Fucheng. Therefore, in addition to the 39 years of prosperity and peace of Chu Dynasty, the people in the city do not know the disaster of war. Shocked, his face was pale.

The houses near the city wall were all demolished, and those who can now live at home feel that their houses are far away from the city wall.

Fucheng is so big, yet such terrifying movements can still be heard.

How many people are attacking the city?

Most of the people are illiterate, and their spells are even less fluent. It's just that when listening to books in teahouses on weekdays, the storyteller's mouth is full of 80 troops.If there is less, everyone is still not happy, and feels that there is not much battle.

Dele, now that the bad result is coming, everyone feels that there are at least a million troops outside the city.

"Impossible, there are really so many people, the official is not the first to run away?"

King Jing is still in the city right now, and the yamen desperately grabs the servants to dig ditches and build walls, obviously wanting to defend the city.

None of the people in the city dared to go out, and they didn't know where they dared to hide except at home. Even if they became more and more panicked, they could only sit with their families and weep, and speculate wildly.

Although everyone was panicked at first, they all thought they could last for a few days. When they heard the shouts of killing, they waited for the end with fear or trembling. Seeing that the sky outside was getting darker and darker, there was no sign of stopping the shouting. sign.

That's all, the voices of those rebel bandits calling Ziwei Xing to say that the destiny has come to the world are like a curse, and they drill into their ears over and over again.

Is it possible that he is really a heavenly soldier?

The rebellious army hit the Fucheng, King Jing was besieged, which meant that the entire Jingzhou was over.

How long has it been?How can you do this if you are not a heavenly soldier or a general, and you don't know evil methods.

"boom!"

There was a loud noise, and the city wall shook.

This is the movement of the catapult, which became thunder in the ears of the people, and some people's minds completely collapsed.

Every family cried bitterly, unable to even complain, with only despair in their eyes.

I don't know how long it has passed, but with a louder roar than before, it seems more like something collapsed this time.

"The city gate is broken!"

"The bandit soldiers came in!"

At first it was only heard in a few streets, and then the whole city began to be chaotic.

Seemingly unbreakable, the gate of the city, which was sealed with many planks and firmly blocked by stones, was split open with an axe.

At this time, there were no more defenders on the city wall, and more people turned and ran away in fright than died at the holy lotus altar.

A big hole was dug five feet away from the city gate, and the rebels who rushed in first fell in without checking.

There was an iron spiked knife erected in the pit, and there were screams for a while, like ghost howls from the endless hell.

However, the people behind wanted to rush forward, and the people in front couldn't retreat after seeing the tragedy, so they were squeezed into the pit abruptly.

In an instant, the pit was filled with human lives. The red-eyed rebels behind didn't know anything. They stepped on the gravel and corpses and entered the city brandishing their weapons. They had never seen such a huge and prosperous city.

Xuanchuan Pass is tall and solid, but it is a fortress, and there are no private houses or shops inside.However, Yizhou has become impoverished since the Chen Dynasty. Although it recovered somewhat in the Chu Dynasty, it cannot be compared with the thousands of years of history in Jingzhou, the hinterland of the south of the Yangtze River.

"Hahaha."

The strange laughter was accompanied by the chaotic sound of chasing and slashing the defenders, and the flames reflected scarlet.

On the city wall, mutilated limbs and blood were scattered down.

Many soldiers stationed on the second line of defense at the city gate fought bravely, but when they touched the fragments of stumps that fell on their heads and body, and were drenched in the intermittent blood rain, they suddenly became chaotic. They are not veterans who are used to the battlefield Pawn, how can he withstand such an impact?

As there are fewer and fewer companions around, seeing the appearance of the Nijun like a mad tiger, even if there are generals with a clear mind shouting, the signs of defeat are gradually spreading.

General Han Fu, who was supposed to dispatch the defenders, was fled down the city wall by the servants of the soldiers. A wound on his back was still bleeding, and he was still holding a bow in his hand, roaring like tears.

Originally, he had the opportunity to lead the Jingzhou elite soldiers to shoot and kill the phantoms who climbed up the city wall like ghosts one by one, because the first ones were only ordinary soldiers, and the city walls of Fucheng were wide and thick, and there was enough space to move and use them. The servants used ran as if they hated their parents for losing two legs. They ran and yelled to shake the morale of the army, so that the soldiers at the top of the city refused to fight the enemy with all their strength.

Han Fu beheaded a fugitive in a rage, not only did not deter everyone, but exposed his position.

The congregation of the holy lotus altar flocked to him, all wanting to kill Han Funa's head to claim credit.

After a flurry of fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and the quiver of Jingzhou's elite soldiers was also empty.

At this time, the city gate under his feet was broken, and the follow-up arrows and military support could not keep up. Han Fu's elite soldiers could only be forced to withdraw from the city wall.

When he saw the scene of the second line of defense behind the city gate crumbling, the flames soaring into the sky, and the army of the Heavenly Granted King smashing down the obstacles and rushing straight to the inner city, Han Fu felt oppressed in his chest, and he spit out blood with a wow, he was actually angry fainted.

All imbalances began when the defenders were too panicked and threw too many stones and logs without restraint.

Han Fu misjudged the offensive posture of the rebellious army, thinking that the offensive would end after sunset, and underestimated the ability of the rebel army. He felt very happy to see the heavy casualties of the rebel army. Ants in general.

Just one hesitation, one wrong judgment, and then everything got out of control.

Han Fu became angry from embarrassment.

Just like many people who have made big mistakes, Han Fu thought about it, and felt that his mistakes didn't really matter, and the real crime should be blamed on others.

"Cowardly soldiers are useless!"

After Han Fu was stunned and rescued by the soldiers pinching a few times, he immediately scolded the Jingzhou army for being incompetent.

"General?"

"Let's go!" Han Fu picked up a spear, swayed and stood firm, and then said sternly, "The three armies refuse to use their lives, how can the city be defended? Now we have to go out and go to Ningwu to avenge King Jing." !"

As soon as this sentence was said, it was barely possible to save some face for the remaining generals of the Jingzhou army.

Besides, no one wanted to die, so it was enough to save King Jing against the onslaught of the rebellious army, and just express their loyalty.

The powerful officials of Jingzhou in the inner city are already stupid.

They never expected that the first day, or even the first night, when the rebellious army arrived in the city of Nanping County, the city would be destroyed.

——Is this city wall made of paper?

Boundless absurdity and astonishment filled my mind, and several elderly officials even had a stroke because they woke up too quickly.

I don't know how many people hurried out with their clothes on.

After all, they were only one wall away from the bandits, or even from their death.

The generals guarding the inner city led more elite soldiers and waited for them. They finally defended the first round of the rebellion and gave the officials and dignitaries a chance to breathe. superior.

But this respite may be better than nothing.

Half an hour later, King Jing reluctantly went up to the tower with a pale face and under the protection of many shields.

He just glanced outside, and he passed out straight.

——The rebellious army held torches, converging into torrents, and the distorted faces under the firelight looked like evil spirits.

They stopped within a stone's throw away, without saying a word, just staring at the city wall with red eyes.

There were screams and wailing everywhere in the city, no one could be seen killed, only a scene like purgatory.

***

Meng Qi entered the city gate stepping on the corpse stone.

His cheeks were reddened by the light of the fire, but his eyes and expression were cold and cold.

Seeing all the miserable scenes, only a few rebel soldiers wandered within ten feet of the city gate, complaining about being left behind to strip off the armor of the dead.

"...the good things have been robbed."

"If you are not afraid of death, go."

Someone woke up from the excitement, looked at his companion who had fallen to his death in the pit, and immediately shut his mouth.

Food, gold and silver women are very good, first of all they have to live.

"The Holy Maiden said that if you capture the city of Nanping County, you will win the destiny. After Xingjun survives this calamity, the good days I have been waiting for will come! And what the guardian said makes sense. The people in the outer city have How many valuable things, what kind of beauties are there? Just leave it alone, the inner city is the treasure house, and they are all delicate ladies, little ladies, with small feet and tender hands, and their skin is as slippery as—"

Before he finished bragging, he suddenly felt a chill in his throat.

The man stretched out his hand to touch it inexplicably, and then he found that the person opposite him did the same thing.

The strange wind made my face and neck ache.

Immediately he saw a person walking through the pile of corpses without dust, like a ghost.

"Who are you..."

His throat vibrated and he made a sound, and when he said the fourth word, he felt a sudden sharp pain.

Blood spurted wildly from between their fingers, and the group of rebel soldiers were terrified and fell down before they could walk three steps.

Meng Qi's face was expressionless, and he shook his sword, the blade was not stained with blood.

He walked faster and faster, and he arrived at the place where the people were screaming and struggling.

Few people saw his appearance, but wherever he passed, the rebels who were massacring and looting fell down one after another, and their necks were bleeding profusely.

Mo Li wanted to catch up with Meng Qi several times, but he found that Meng Qi hadn't lost control, so he could only follow closely behind.

Mo Li knew that Meng Qi had killed many people, but later Meng Qi avoided seeing blood to control himself, but made an exception tonight.

——Anger freezes into ice, it doesn't disappear, it needs a bloodbath.

"demon!"

This kind of movement quickly attracted the attention of the Holy Lotus Altar. Those Jianghu masters who were attracted did not believe in any gods and demons. Knowing that it must be the counterattack of the Jiangnan martial arts people, Qi Qi went to find Meng Qi.

But the rebellious soldiers who believed in ghosts and gods left their treasures and retreated in a hurry.

There are many figures in the dark night, swaying by the light of the fire.

There are ghosts in my heart, and there are ghosts everywhere.

"The monster is coming!"

Mo Li frowned and looked at the two screaming congregants of the Holy Lotus Altar who ran out of the street. They threw away their torches and didn't even want their knives. They just wanted to go back to a brighter place, to the leader and the saint. .

The torch rolled twice, and it was about to set fire to the house.

The ink carp flicked its sleeves to control its strength, and a strange wind suddenly rose from the ground, blowing out the torch strangely.

Those people who were lucky enough to escape the catastrophe hurriedly ran in the opposite direction of the rebellious army.

"Hey, where is the bastard causing trouble, to name grandpa..."

The first people who met Meng Qi were a few villains who were notorious in Jianghu. They once took the pleasure of killing people and slaughtered the whole village. His sword skills are extremely difficult to deal with.If it weren't for the severe drought in Yongzhou, they would never have taken refuge in the Holy Lotus Altar.

Seemingly arrogant, the four brothers stopped at the intersection carelessly, but in fact they were ready to encircle, ready to attack this demon named assassin (taking Meng Qi as Su Li from the day before yesterday) on the spot. Down.

Meng Qi turned a blind eye to them and didn't hear them, walking forward step by step.

Raise your right hand slightly to see the sword's edge.

The four villains shouted in unison, wanting to fight violently, but the person living in the east suddenly let out a muffled howl, and the whole person flew out alive.

"There is someone in the dark!"

"Hide!"

The remaining three people saw that the situation was not right and wanted to retreat, but the person who unfolded the so-called formation in front of Meng Qi could leave if he wanted to.

Meng Qi flicked casually, wrapped in energy.

Without using sound transmission, Mo Li easily broke the right arms of the three people who "sent to their door".

Continue to struggle, then break a left arm and legs.

"Natural... ah!"

"Look at the knife...not right!"

The masters of the holy lotus altar who appeared one after another, and inexplicably failed, made the call of the demon even louder.

Meng Qi is in the light, and the ink carp is in the dark.

They walked in this fallen city one after the other, feeling each other's breath.

Even in such a place, the screams of people who kept rushing with weapons and fell down one after another could not break this connection.

Meng Qi could hear Mo Li's heartbeat, as if listening to the doctor's heart; Mo Li could hear Meng Qi's gentle breathing, as if Meng Qi was close to his ear.

The sword's edge kills, but the sword's style leaves no trace.

None of Meng Qi's subordinates survived, and those who bumped into the ink carp could still survive.

The hundreds and thousands of people who were scattered and slaughtered in the city cannot be killed, but the night and fear can do it.

Where Meng Qi passed by, the light suddenly disappeared.

Losing their torches, many rebel soldiers could not see clearly and were afraid of monsters. They gave up their looting and ran towards the main army attacking the inner city. As a result, the screams of fighting gradually became smaller. Standing on a high place, they could clearly see A fan-shaped shadow stretched out, slowly expanding.

"Ok?"

Master Luo's expression froze, and he turned his head suddenly.
