The rain of arrows came straight at them. Back then, a portion of Qian Zhou's divine archery team had been taken in by Duan Mu An Guo. Even if the appearance of Dashun's divine army had caused Qian Zhou's divine archery team to lose its luster, it was still better than nothing. At certain times, they would still be able to achieve victory by surprise.
For example, right now!
On one side, there was a rain of arrows, and on the other, there was not the slightest movement. Choosing either side would lead to death. But Xuan Tianhua thought that he still had a choice! Not moving, at the very least, he could give the girl behind him some time to escape. He knew that the girl had some special abilities. As long as she was given time, even if it was just a breath, she would be able to preserve her life.
He smiled calmly and faced the rain of arrows. He did not have any intention of dodging. Feng Yu Heng watched from behind. Her eyes were burning with anxiousness. She loudly shouted: "Seventh Brother! Jump! Jump in my direction! "
But Xuan Tianhua did not move.
Seeing that the rain of arrows was about to fall from the sky and hit the live target, she became anxious. She simply used her crappy qinggong and rushed forward. At the same time, she swung her whip, sending it straight at Xuan Tianhua. She only hoped that the whip in her hand would be able to touch his body in her place.
Who could have thought that at this time, half of the arrows coming from Tong City would change direction. They were no longer aimed at Xuan Tianhua. Instead, they were aimed at a large area of landmines.
Feng Yu Heng was extremely shocked. She almost immediately realized what the enemy wanted to do. Although this area of landmines did not hit a large number of Dashun's soldiers, if they could take the lives of Xuan Tianhua and her, old thief Duan Mu would have profited.
The arrows were too fast and too many. They were also scattered. It was already too late for her to go back and save them. The tip of the fastest arrow touched the ground. She opened her eyes wide and looked at the changes in the ground with unwillingness. The speed of the landmine explosion was broken down by her at this moment. From the ground exploding to sparks bursting out, with a "bang", it scattered in all directions. Feng Yu Heng forgot to enter her space. She just watched all of this happen with her eyes wide open. Only when a figure in white pounced at her did she subconsciously use her right hand to cover her left wrist, bringing the figure in white into her pharmacy space.
But in the instant that she entered, a large area of landmines exploded, causing her brain to go "boom". She only had time to smell the familiar pharmacy smell. In the next second, she lost all consciousness … ….
All of the landmines within five li of the defensive line exploded. Outside the defensive line, Xuan Tianming had already seen Xuan Tianhua pouncing towards Feng Yu Heng when the first thunderclap sounded. At that moment, his heart was in his throat, afraid that the lass wouldn't be able to enter her space in time. He stared at them. Unfortunately, following the explosion of the landmines, a large amount of thick smoke billowed up, instantly engulfing the two people and isolating them from his line of sight. He panicked and used his qinggong to rush in without caring about anything else. However, he was stopped by several shadow guards behind him.
Following that, a large area of landmines exploded, causing the ground to tremble violently. The hidden guards did their best to drag Xuan Tian Ming back. Even if this was the case, when the mines that had been buried near the perimeter of the defense line exploded, there were still shards that pierced their flesh. There were so many of them that it was like a sieve.
At that moment, Xuan Tianming almost lost his ability to think. His mind was blank and he could only hear the continuous rumbling of the thunder. His mind was filled with the last sight he saw of Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianhua. He didn't know if Feng Yu Heng was able to enter her space in time. He really wanted to rush over to take a look. Even if his body was smashed to pieces, as long as the two of them were safe, it would be worth it. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to enter in the end. He even heard someone saying loudly in his ear, "His Ninth Highness, even if you rush in, you won't be able to find anything!"
What did that mean? Xuan Tianming thought that the shadow guards didn't know that Feng Yu Heng had a space that could be entered and exited anytime. Then, when they said that they wouldn't be able to find anything, did that mean that the two of them had been blown to smithereens?
He wanted to turn around and give that shadow guard a slap. He had already raised his hand but in the end, he didn't bring it down.
The one who should be hit wasn't the shadow guard, but himself! Xuan Tianming felt that he was really useless. These few years, with Feng Yu Heng by his side, it was as if he had someone to rely on from the bottom of his heart. He relied on this wife for everything. It was to the point that when it was a matter of life and death, he could still allow that girl to face danger alone. Was he really a man?
The entire five li of minefield exploded for less than an hour. The explosion caused He Gan to bring a portion of the people from the Divine Archery Team to rush over here. Until there were no more sounds of thunder, until everything returned to tranquility, when they looked again, it was actually billowing smoke. It was like a thick wall of fog, separating them from Tong City.
He Gan had never seen Xuan Tianming in such a dazed state. He was an old man from the military camp in the suburbs of the capital and had followed Xuan Tianming for a total of seven years. He was a soldier who had fought from the battle in the northwest all the way to Zong Sui. Even though he had been taken into the Divine Arms Battalion by Feng Yu Heng and became the leader of the Divine Archery Team, even though he recognized Feng Yu Heng as his boss and respected her as his teacher from the bottom of his heart, in his subjective consciousness, Xuan Tianming was still his number one master. This Ninth Prince, this Great General, had always been proud and confident. That devilishly charming face had never paid attention to anyone. No matter where the army he led fought, they were invincible. Even with Feng Yu Heng later on, that was just icing on the cake. It could not be considered sending charcoal in snowy weather because Xuan Tianming had always been that powerful.
But now? Now, He Gan actually saw despair on Xuan Tianming's face. This was something that had never happened before. Xuan Tian Ming actually felt despair. What exactly had happened?
He looked around but did not see Feng Yu Heng who had come over with Xuan Tianming. He Gan did not understand and asked the hidden guard beside him: "Where is the Princess Consort? Didn't she say that she came to receive His Highness the Seventh Prince? Then where is His Highness the Seventh Prince? " A bad premonition suddenly rose in He Gan's heart. He seemed to have grasped a clue and seemed to understand where the despair on Xuan Tianming's face came from. But he did not dare believe it. He stared at the hidden guard with wide eyes.
The hidden guards, who had always been emotionless, also had red eyes at this moment. They did not know that Feng Yu Heng had a space. So, perhaps for Xuan Tianming, there was still a glimmer of hope. But for them, whether it was Feng Yu Heng or Xuan Tianhua, they had already been buried in that minefield. After such a long period of time and such a large scale explosion, they were afraid that not even a corner of their clothes could be found.
Seeing that the hidden guards did not reply and all of them had tears in their eyes, how could He Gan not understand? At this moment, he almost went crazy! He believed that he was Feng Yu Heng's disciple. All of his skills were learned from Feng Yu Heng. She taught them archery, taught them strange tracking arrow skills, and even taught them Heavenly Lightning and firearms. He originally wanted to wait until he grew old and could no longer fight on the battlefield. Then he would stay in the army to be an instructor and teach more people his skills. But he did not expect that such bad news would suddenly arrive.
If this world did not have Feng Yu Heng, what was the point of their Divine Strategy Army existing?
"Why does Zong Sui have lightning?" Suddenly, Xuan Tianming said this. He was not questioning anyone. He just wanted to mutter to himself and ponder over it. However, the explosion of the landmines was too fierce and it lasted for too long. As a result, their eardrums were slightly damaged and their hearing temporarily weakened. Even though they wanted to mutter to themselves, their voices were very loud.
Mou He instinctively knelt towards the thick fog. Hearing Xuan Tianming's question, he was suddenly stunned. Then he reacted and said: "Impossible! This is impossible! How can Zong Sui have lightning? " But when he looked at the smoke again, even if he did not see the instant the lightning exploded with his own eyes, he could tell from the smell that the thick fog was indeed caused by the explosion of lightning.
He was stunned. After a long time, he said: "Master once said that no matter if it is lightning or guns, only she can take them out in this world. It is impossible for other people to have them. This is … why? " He looked at Xuan Tianming and explained: "When we went to Zong Sui this time, we only brought guns and grenades. We did not bring those landmines that can be buried underground. The remaining landmines in the hands of the Divine Strategy Army were all left at the other end of the desert. They were personally managed by Xi Fang. It is impossible for them to flow to Zong Sui! Also … "He gritted his teeth," Even if it was the landmines that flowed out of the Divine Strategy Army, it is impossible for it to cause such a large scale explosion. Because the landmines we have on hand are less than 20. " Thinking back to the sounds they heard on the way here, the explosion sounds were not just 20, there were more than 50, then it was definitely impossible for it to be something from their side.
Xuan Tianming also knew that this matter was unrelated to the Divine Strategy Army. He waved his hand and said: "I do not mean to blame you. I am just curious, where did Duanmu Anguo get these landmines from? Also … … "He thought back to the large explosion just now and came to a conclusion:" It is definitely not our landmines. Because the power of the explosion is much weaker than our landmines. Even if three of their landmines exploded, they would not be able to match the power of one of ours. "
The ringing in his ears seemed to be getting better. Xuan Tianming tried his best to adjust his state of mind, warning himself again and again in his heart: Do not panic, do not panic. Everything is not set in stone yet. He just did not see the final scene, but at least he already saw that Xuan Tianhua had already reached her side. The two should have entered the space. When the thick smoke dissipated, he had the army spread out to search. No matter how serious the explosion was, there would at least be some traces left. If there were no traces at all, then it meant that they were fine.
Xuan Tianming forced himself to calm down, and his state of mind was quickly adjusted. He ordered He Gan: "Go back and have Qian Li lead the troops out of camp. The army has advanced to this point and is ready to attack the city at any time."
He Gan was also holding back his anger, but he had nowhere to vent it. He could only charge into Tong City and settle things with that old thief Duanmu. Receiving Xuan Tianming's order, he immediately returned on horseback. Very quickly, just as the sky was beginning to brighten, Qian Li led hundreds of thousands of Dashun soldiers and arrived in front of the fog wall.
He Gan had already told Qian Li and the other commanders about the situation here. That was why when the army arrived, Xuan Tianming saw sorrowful faces. They were clearly an army that was going to war, but they were acting like a funeral procession. His heart was filled with anxiety.
"Get your spirits up!" He shouted angrily, pointing at Qian Li: "It's not time for you to cry! I did not die, the princess did not die, and the seventh prince did not die. Listen, leave two hundred thousand people here to wait for orders. The rest of you, advance forward. From here, all the way to the foot of Tong City's walls. Search every inch carefully for I. "
"Search for what?" Qian Li asked in a daze.
Xuan Tianming gritted his teeth: "Search for people! Search for corpses, limbs, or even blood, flesh … "
At this moment, a soldier suddenly pointed in the direction of Tong City and shouted: "Look —"
