Even if they were discovered by the patrolling soldiers, Yuan Gang only said one word, "Go!"
Ignoring them, the group continued to run.
A few groups of patrolling soldiers immediately barged into the house to check what was going on. In the end, they only saw the silhouettes of people jumping over the wall. The speed at which the other party jumped over the wall was so fast and coordinated that the soldiers could not do anything.
They built a human ladder and climbed on top of the wall to see what was going on. However, they could not see the silhouettes anymore.
Once the human ladder dispersed, they immediately sent out a warning, alerting the nearby soldiers!
...
Dust flew up from the widened hole in the wall and blood flowed all over the ground.
Meng Shan Ming, who was sitting on the ground, had a spear in his hand. No one was able to break through. Dozens of people had already died under his spear. Meng Shan Ming himself was also sitting in a pool of blood.
Shang Shuqing guarded the hole and cooperated with him. Her sword was stained with blood. She hid beside the wall and killed a few people as well. However, her movements caused her injured shoulder to hurt badly. She clenched her teeth and held on.
Even though they knew that they could not hold on for long, no one here gave up. They had the mentality of killing as many as they could.
The window that Shang Chaozong was guarding had already been torn apart. Blood splattered all over him. With his Zhanmadao in hand, he had already killed more than ten people. He guarded the window and did not let anyone take another step forward. Lan Ruoting, who was following behind him, was also in a killing frenzy. When he saw an opportunity, he would stab with his spear to cover for Shang Chaozong.
Feng Ruoyi, who was in the courtyard, was infuriated. With just a few people, they actually managed to block the attack of so many people.
Seeing that there was a sneak attack coming from the hole in the wall, Feng Ruoyi leaped and landed at the hole. He swung his spear and smashed it.
Clang! With a loud sound, Shang Shuqing's arm went numb. She could not hold the sword in her hand steadily and it flew out.
Feng Ruoyi raised his spear horizontally and slashed towards Shang Shuqing's neck.
A spear shadow swept over and blocked the spear's attack. The spear's shaft then bounced off Shang Shuqing's shoulder, directly pushing Shang Shuqing away from the hole and behind the wall, allowing Shang Shuqing to escape from the calamity.
At the crucial moment, Meng Shanming saved her life.
Outside the cave, the spear in Feng Ruoyi's hand immediately spun like a wheel of wind and fire, whirring and swirling as it entered the cave. He wanted to seize the opportunity to charge in.
The spear in the cave moved like a dragon, jabbing and slicing, cleverly restraining Feng Ruoyi's spear force.
A spear aura slashed down along Feng Ruoyi's spear shaft, straight towards Feng Ruoyi's hand that was holding the spear.
Feng Ruoyi quickly used his spear to suppress the other party's attack, and the other party's spear light instantly retracted and shot out, piercing towards Feng Ruoyi's chest at lightning speed.
Feng Ruoyi was shocked. He twisted his body and jumped, spinning in the air to avoid this attack. The spear light brushed past his shoulder, and with a ripping sound, tore open his shoulder armor.
Feng Ruoyi landed on the ground and jumped back to the courtyard outside the house. He looked at the shoulder armor hanging on his chest. The clothes on his shoulder were torn, and there was a bloody mark on it. It was not a big deal, but the ruthlessness and accuracy of that shot still made him feel a lingering fear.
He knew that if he did not react in time, that shot would have taken his life.
He did not expect this crippled old man to be able to display such exquisite spear skills while sitting on the ground. There was no hesitation, and every spear took a life. It was truly the spear skills of the battlefield, and there was nothing fancy about it.
Now he understood, no wonder this old man was guarding the cave, and the people outside couldn't break in.
What he did not know was that Meng Shan Ming was already old, and if Meng Shan Ming was healthy, he might not be able to dodge it.
Feng Ruoyi looked towards the cave entrance, and suddenly waved his hand and pointed, "Shoot!"
A group of archers rushed over from behind, and pulled their bowstrings. Whoosh whoosh whoosh, a rain of arrows covered the cave entrance.
Meng Shan Ming, who was inside, waved his spear, and picked up a corpse to block in front of him. Immediately, the corpse was shot into a hedgehog.
After a wave of arrows, there were more people rushing in. Meng Shan Ming used his spear to pick up the corpse, and the spear light shot out again. If one came, he would kill one, if two came, he would kill a pair. Under his white hair, his eyes were cold and fierce, but it also looked tragic.
Shang Shuqing picked up his sword, and gritted his teeth to cooperate.
Boom! A loud sound came from the back hall, and a large number of footsteps rushed in.
Everyone in the front hall was shocked, they knew that the back hall had been breached.
"Retreat!" Shang Chaozong turned around, and pulled Lan Ruoting towards Meng Shan Ming. The people who rushed in from the window immediately chased after them, and Shang Chaozong slashed a few of them.
Four of the personal guards in the back hall were already dead, and the remaining personal guard in the front hall gathered together with Shang Chaozong and the rest.
A large number of people rushed in, and forced Shang Chaozong and the rest to a corner.
Shang Chaozong waved his blade in front, and formed a triangular formation with Meng Shan Ming, defending against the group of people. Shang Shuqing, Lan Ruoting, and the personal guard were supporting them from the back.
Feng Ruoyi, who rushed in, shouted: "Retreat, archers!"
The surrounding people immediately retreated, and a group of archers drew their bowstrings and aimed at the few people in the corner.
Meng Shan Ming picked up a broken table with his spear, and used it to block in front of him. Shang Chaozong rolled over, pulled a long table, and used it to block in front of him.
The few of them hid behind the table, and the front of the table was instantly filled with arrows.
Seeing that the archers could not do anything to them, a group of soldiers rushed in. The table was pushed aside, and Meng Shan Ming and Shang Chaozong joined hands to defend against the arrows.
Shang Shuqing's sword was too short, and could not reach the front. He looked to his left and right, and immediately dragged the tea table, tables, and chairs over to this side, in case of another wave of arrows. Perhaps, it might be useful.
Feng Ruojie turned to his subordinate and ordered: "Get someone to climb up the roof from the outside, remove the tiles, and shoot them from above!"
The subordinate immediately obeyed the order, and led his men to climb up the roof.
"A bunch of trash, get out of the way!"
Tao Yan was infuriated when he saw that he still couldn't defeat Meng Shan Ming. He let out a loud shout, raised his long saber, and rushed forward. He brandished his long saber and leaped into the air, chopping fiercely at Meng Shan Ming. He intended to use brute force to bully this crippled old man.
"General Tao, come back!" Feng Ruoyi was shocked, and shouted. He had suffered at Meng Shan Ming's hands before, and knew how powerful Meng Shan Ming was. But it was too late, Tao Yan had already attacked.
Meng Shan Ming, who was sitting on the ground, had a cold gleam in his eyes. He was not afraid at all, and raised his spear to meet Tao Yan's attack. He flicked the spear twice, and instantly deflected Tao Yan's saber. He adjusted the direction of the spear, and thrust the spear with one arm.
Tao Yan's eyes widened, and he was caught unprepared. He watched as the spear pierced through his throat, and blood burst out from the back of his neck.
When Tao Yan landed on the ground, Meng Shan Ming pulled out his spear with one arm, and with the other, he grabbed the end of the spear and swung it, hitting Tao Yan's face.
Tao Yan fell to the ground, twitching in a pool of blood.
Meng Shan Ming did not even look at him, and swung his spear to fight the other besiegers.
Feng Ruoyi was fine, and he was mentally prepared.
Feng Ruojie and Nong Zhangguang were dumbfounded, and they were a little stunned. Tao Yan, such a powerful general, was killed by this crippled old man with one spear?
For such an important matter, he actually lost a general of the Feng Clan? Feng Ruoyi was also speechless!
In a nearby house, Yuan Gang climbed up to the roof to observe the situation. Coincidentally, he also saw the soldiers climbing up to the roof and immediately realised that Feng Lingbo might not have succeeded yet, and also realised that the people in the house that the soldiers climbed up to could be fighting like cornered beasts. He immediately turned back and ordered, "Set fire …"
It was too late to set fire to the other side, and it was the same to set fire to the other side. He hoped that Heavenly Jade Sect would see it and rush over in time.
"Boss!"
Yuan Feng and the others exclaimed. Yuan Gang handed over the command to the four captains, and he rushed over alone.
Yuan Feng and the others left a few people to set fire to the house, and then led the team members to rush over to help.
Seeing that someone was setting fire to their house, the family of the house owner wanted to cry, but they didn't dare to ask for help when they encountered this group of strong people.
They didn't need to ask for help either. A group of people attacked unscrupulously, and it had already alerted the garrison. A large number of people were rushing over from the alley.
Inside the magistrate's office.
Why hadn't they received the signal of success? Feng Lingbo was pacing back and forth anxiously, when he suddenly heard that the garrison was alerted and was gathering to search the target. He immediately scolded the subordinate who reported, "Who allowed us to act rashly?"
Yuan Gang, who jumped into the alley, rushed straight to the door. Before the group of soldiers guarding the door could react, they were chopped into pieces by Yuan Gang's blade.
Crash! A blade light cut through the door, and Yuan Gang dragged half of the door and rushed forward. Previously, when he was on the roof, he saw that there were archers among the people climbing up the house.
He rushed all the way to the main hall, and his speed was so fast that it caught people off guard.
"Shoot!"
Following the order, a group of intercepting archers fired their arrows in unison.
The half of the door blocked in front of him, and the door cracked from the rain of arrows.
After a wave of arrows, the door was lifted, and Yuan Gang had already jumped into the air, landing in the crowd. Waving his blade, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and screams rang out.
In the main hall, Shang Chaozong and the rest who were forced into the corner were shocked. Large amounts of tiles were falling from above, and there were people on the roof using their feet to quickly sweep away the tiles. They could clearly see a group of archers drawing arrows from their quivers and nocking their bows. Did they need to say who their target was?
But at this moment, the archers on the roof suddenly panicked, and screams rang out. Someone even smashed through the roof and fell into the hall, and the person who fell had several shiny metal arrows stuck in his body.
On the wall outside, there were two rows of people rushing over from the left and right of the wall, as if they were running on a single-plank bridge. The arrows from the Nine Chain Crossbows in their hands whizzed towards the archers on the roof. Shooting from a long distance was still accurate!
Only then did the group of attacking soldiers, whose attention was attracted by Yuan Gang, notice the commotion on the wall. Someone shouted, "Archers, the left and right walls!"
After taking down the archers on the roof, the people on the left and right walls quickly jumped down, using the pavilions, flower beds, or the walls to dodge, taking turns to cover each other.
"Daoye is here, Daoye is here!" Shang Shuqing's surprised cry suddenly rang out in the dilapidated main hall.
She recognized the metal arrows on the person who fell. She had seen these metal arrows before, and knew that they were specially made arrows used by Yuan Gang and his men. Furthermore, the garrison troops would not kill their own people at this time, so who else could it be other than Daoye?
Coupled with the screams of slaughter coming from outside, Shang Chaozong and the rest were invigorated.
Shang Shuqing shed tears of joy. It was hard for an outsider to understand the feeling of having reinforcements when they were already in a desperate situation. She knew that Niu Youdao would not abandon them, she had always believed that!
Feng Ruoyi was alarmed, Niu Youdao is here? How could Niu Youdao enter the city?
At this time, the Feng Clan could no longer afford to lose. Feng Ruoyi waved his spear and roared, "Get people to rush up, kill those who retreat!"
Feng Ruojie also roared, "Charge!"
