"They're here — —" Lin Wanrong exclaimed, hurriedly getting up from his chair and looking into the distance.
There were at least a few thousand people charging towards them, and most of them were cavalry. The horses they rode on were tall and sturdy, and the warriors on them looked fierce and murderous. With just one look, one could tell that they were not easy to deal with.
Lin Wanrong carefully looked at those people, then said to Gao Qiu and Hu Bugui, "Big brothers, quickly help me see if there are any women in this formation."
Gao Qiu and Hu Bugui looked around for a while, then shook their heads, "I don't see any women."
Lin Wanrong nodded, "Okay, Saint Li, fire — —"
The cannons fired in unison, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of cavalrymen were overturned. But the group of cavalrymen was very fierce, and in the blink of an eye, they had already charged forward several feet. Lin Wanrong sneered and was about to continue firing the cannons, when two to three hundred infantrymen suddenly rushed out from the cavalry formation. Their heads were wrapped in white scarves, and their upper bodies were bare. Their faces and bodies were painted with ghost heads, and the formation was very frightening.
"White Lotus Goddess, protect my loyal disciple, be invulnerable, ride the clouds — —" This strangely dressed White Lotus woman, holding a huge machete in her hand, shouted a slogan, and rushed to the front of the formation.
Several soldiers shot arrows at these people. Although the arrows had pierced into their flesh, these White Lotus soldiers seemed to feel nothing, and there was not the slightest hint of pain on their faces. They still rushed forward bravely and fiercely.
A look of horror appeared on the faces of the soldiers. There were people in this world who did not know pain? Could it be that they were really invulnerable like they said?
This was probably the suicide squad of the White Lotus Sect. Damn it, I hate people who pretend to be mysterious the most. Lin Wanrong frowned. He did not believe that they were invulnerable, and they must have used some kind of psycho-analgesic medicine. But it was useless for him to not believe it alone. The words of gods and Buddhas were deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the scene in front of them had a huge impact on the soldiers. They must break this evil technique.
Lin Wanrong took out the gun from his bosom and fired two shots. Two of those demons fell to the ground. One was hit in the chest, while the other's head exploded. When the soldiers saw that the demons had fallen, they immediately let out a cheer.
Gao Qiu's movements were not slow either. With a 'shua' sound, he dashed into the crowd of demons as fast as lightning. His steel saber flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he had chopped off the necks of more than ten demons.
In a loud voice Lin Wanrong said, "Brothers, don't be afraid, this is a trick of the demons. Just shoot at their eyes and heads — "
Hu Bugui held the strong bow in his hand, and with a swoosh sound, the arrow pierced through the forehead of an ox-head and horse-faced demon. Before the demon could even make a sound, he fell to the ground dead.
"Shoot their heads!" The soldiers were startled and aimed their arrows in that direction. The White Lotus Sect's suicide squad fell to the ground after specifically shooting the eyes and heads of these swindlers. The soldiers got rid of their fear and their morale soared. In a short while, the two hundred people were killed by their arrows.
After this charge, Saint Li's cannon fire paused for a while, and the thousand-odd cavalry charged forward for a distance. From the looks of it, they wanted to kill a path of blood.
The leader of the cavalry had a dark face and broad eyebrows, and looked somewhat imposing. Hu Bugui exclaimed, "General, look, that person is the Saint King of the White Lotus Sect, Lu Kanli."
The Saint King of the White Lotus Sect? And his surname is Lu? Lin Wanrong's mind spun like lightning. Could it be that Lu Zhongping is his son? Damn, no wonder Xian 'er's master had instructed them to rescue Lu Zhongping no matter what. I wonder where Xian 'er's master came from. Since the Saint King had chosen to flee, it meant that Ji Ning City was close at hand. It was just that there was still no sign of Xian 'er, which made him anxious.
"Aim at that Saint King, attack —" Lin Wanrong yelled. Unable to find Xian 'er's anger, he vented it on this Saint King Lu Kanli.
Saint Li's reputation was indeed well-deserved. Five cannons bombarded Lu Kanli, and in the blink of an eye, another hundred White Lotus cavalrymen were annihilated. It was only because Lu Kanli's soldiers were loyal to their master and protected him several times with their lives that he was temporarily safe.
"Archers, get ready — —" Seeing that the cavalrymen had already approached the front of the imperial army, Saint Li put down the cannons and loudly ordered.
The Divine Arms Battalion's rockets and crossbows shot at the remaining White Lotus cavalrymen, and another three to four hundred people were killed. Only Saint King Lu Kanli, who was protected by the bodies of his guards, was lucky enough to survive. Facing the remaining five hundred cavalrymen, Hu Bugui excitedly licked his lips and cupped his fists, saying, "General Lin, I request to go to battle!"
"I request to go to battle!" The several thousand households of the cavalry battalion cupped their fists together.
Damn, five thousand people against five hundred, if it were me, I would also request to go to battle. Lin Wanrong chuckled, "In that case, big brother Hu, big brother thousand households, each of you will lead one thousand elite cavalrymen to capture Lu Kanli. Whoever captures him first, I will give him the credit."
"Roger!" The thousand households excitedly accepted the order. Everyone knew very well what it meant to capture the White Lotus Saint King Lu Kanli. Now that it was ten against one, who wouldn't be excited? Five thousand elite cavalrymen galloped forward, the sound of hooves shaking the ground and stirring up a cloud of dust. In the blink of an eye, the five hundred White Lotus cavalrymen were drowned in the sea of people.
Lin Wanrong leisurely drank a mouthful of tea. No matter who captured the White Lotus Saint King, the credit would be given to the right vanguard General Lin. Sigh, I've made too many contributions. Do I really have to push Xu Wei down and make him a marshal? That's not a good idea.
Lin Wanrong said to Du Xiuyuan, "Big brother Du, there's only one Saint King among the higher-ups of the White Lotus Sect. It's not satisfying to capture him just like that."
Du Xiuyuan looked at the fierce battle between Hu Bugui and the guards of the White Lotus Saint King in the distance and said with a smile, "Lu Kanli was originally an ambitious and ruthless person in Shandong. Later, it was said that after persuasion, he and the Holy Mother of the White Lotus Sect founded the White Lotus Sect together. As for the higher-ups, besides him, there's only that Holy Mother. "
The White Lotus Saint King and the White Lotus Holy Mother? Then aren't they a pair? Could it be that the White Lotus Holy Mother is Xian 'er's master?
As they were speaking, they saw Hu Bugui cut Lu Kanli's mount in half. The White Lotus Saint King fell to the ground and struggled twice, with a look of horror on his face. Hu Bugui galloped forward, stretched out his body, and lifted Lu Kanli over his head with one hand, yelling, "Lu Kanli has been captured by me, you White Lotus bandits, quickly surrender."
Lin Wanrong got up and laughed. "Good, good, big brother Hu Bugui has made a great contribution, we're in the limelight again this time."
Du Xiuyuan said respectfully, "Reporting to General, now that Lu Kanli has been captured by me, there are no strong soldiers in the west city, I request to attack the city! Take Ji Ning and make new contributions for my army. "
"Good, approved!" Lin Wanrong said loudly.
Du Xiuyuan let out a long whistle and said, "Brothers, Lu Kanli of the White Lotus Sect has been captured by my army, if we break into Ji Ning City, my army will take great credit. Break into Ji Ning City, go home for the New Year, everyone charge — — "
Five thousand infantrymen attacked the city like a tide, everyone's face was filled with excitement. There were almost no guards in the west city, breaking into the city would be a piece of cake.
Lin Wanrong was pleased with himself, mounted his war horse, and was about to follow to supervise the battle, when he suddenly heard a soft whistle, a woman leaped out of the city, leaping tens of feet high. Her feet did not touch the ground, but she was like an ethereal fairy treading on the waves. It was hard to tell how old this woman was, she had almond-shaped eyes and a peachy face, was extremely charming, had a slender waist, and a mature and hot body, looking like a ripe honey peach.
Lin Wanrong was taken aback for a moment, where did this demon come from, how could she be such a scourge to men? Looking at her moves, it completely defied the Earth's gravity theory. He turned to Gao Qiu and asked, "Big brother Gao, is this the legendary lightness skill?"
Gao Qiu nodded solemnly, "Yes. Brother Lin, this woman's martial arts are superb, I'm afraid she'll be difficult to deal with, I'm not her opponent. "
Lin Wanrong chuckled, "If you're not her opponent, what's there to be afraid of? We have cannons, fire arrows, and crossbows, what's there to be afraid of?"
Little guy, you want to play lightness skill with me? He waved his hand behind him and said, "Sage Li, focus on that woman, fire arrows, crossbows, and cannons, attack together."
At Sage Li's command, thousands of crossbows and fire arrows shot towards the woman at the same time. Even if the woman was skilled in martial arts, facing the locust-like arrows, she could not retaliate at all, and was forced to retreat by the rain of arrows. Sage Li adjusted the five cannons, with a loud bang, several cannonballs flew out with a sharp whistle. As the woman dodged, her dress was almost burnt by the fire arrows, and for a moment, she was in an extremely difficult situation.
Lin Wanrong laughed evilly, a martial arts expert, and a beautiful one at that. Speaking of which, I'm also half a martial arts expert, but I've never been as arrogant as you, playing with the waves, as if you're afraid that others won't know you're an expert. I'll blast you away with a few cannons, let's see how you're going to continue.
Under the continuous attack of the fire arrows, crossbows, and cannons, the woman could no longer resist, and after a boom, the beautiful female expert screamed and fell to the ground.
Du Xiuyuan led the army and madly rushed towards the city gate, rushing into the city in the blink of an eye.
"Ji Ning City has been breached, Ji Ning City has been breached — —" Lin Wanrong led a few thousand soldiers and shouted in unison. The White Lotus Army, who were still resisting, trembled in fear, and were defeated in a few moments.
"Master — —" A young woman suddenly rushed out from the west gate, madly running towards the female expert.
"Xian 'er — —" Lin Wanrong suddenly jumped up, little darling, you've finally come out.
"General, should we blast this female thief?" Sage Li asked.
"Blast your head, this is my wife." Lin Wanrong angrily scolded, urging his warhorse to gallop towards Qin Xian 'er.
When he got closer, he flew down from his horse, only to see Qin Xian 'er's hair was disheveled, her face haggard, and her pretty cheeks were covered with tears. Her expression was blank, kneeling on the ground, staring blankly at the beautiful female expert who was being bombarded by the cannons.
"Xian 'er, Xian' er — —" Lin Wanrong softly called out.
Qin Xian 'er turned around and stared blankly at him, a hint of joy flashing across her face, but soon after, tears streamed down her cheeks, and she covered her face with both hands, saying, "Young Master, you killed my master — —"
