King Liang and Liu Yao were also notified and hurriedly came out to check. They looked at the black wave in the distance with confusion. Suddenly their expressions changed: "It's the rebels! Get ready to fight!"
They didn't understand why they came into contact with the rebels in this place. You must know that although this place is not too far from Lushui County, it is not close either. There are other states and counties in between. How did this rebel army suddenly appear? here?
Are all the guards in the states and counties along the way dead?
Liu Yao subconsciously wanted to retreat, but was stopped by his generals: "General Wei, we can't retreat now. Now the rebels have rushed over. There are many cavalry inside. They can't escape now. Instead, they will never retreat because the formation is broken." He had no resistance and was easily hacked from behind."
"Yes, it is better to form a formation to meet the enemy. Although these rebels are large in number, their individual strength is far from comparable to our elite imperial army. As long as they last for a period of time, when the nearby states and counties get the news, they will lead their troops to support us. It will be safe, and maybe you can make some great achievements."
After all, the Forbidden Army is the most elite force in the entire empire, and there are many knowledgeable people among them, so he hurriedly dissuaded him.
Liu Yao was also a little confused and hurriedly asked Prince Liang on the side: "My lord, what do you think we should do?"
After all, King Liang is a master, so he should be calmer: "Then form an array to meet the enemy!"
"Array, form!" Liu Yao finally came to his senses and hurriedly rode around shouting.
The Imperial Guards placed their carriages, horses and baggage on the periphery, and then formed a formation with shields and spears pointed at the direction in which the rebels were charging.
King Liang flew into the air and quickly formed two balls of light with his hands, which he threw directly at the rushing rebels.
Boom-boom!
There were two loud noises, and the rebels who were rushing over fell to their feet. However, the rebels were so numerous that such a small setback could not stop their attack.
King Liang quickly condensed two more light balls and smashed them down again. After smashing them, he did not stop and condensed the light balls again for bombardment.
There was finally a commotion on the rebel side. Firstly, they were frightened by the power of the explosions of those light balls. Secondly, the previous explosions made teammates fall over. Many people were unable to stop during the attack, so more and more people fell down.
Zu An was speechless as he watched in the prison car. King Liang's posture was like a bomber. The air force could fight against ground troops no matter how hard they fought.
At this moment, a thin layer of transparent shield appeared in mid-air for the rebel team. Apparently they also had corresponding formations. Although it was visually not as thick and dignified as the shield of the red-robed army of the Chu family, it was better with more people.
The quantity was large, but it could barely withstand the bombardment of King Liang.
Liu Yao snorted coldly when he saw this. He drew out his sword and stepped forward to help. A forty-meter-long vitality sword directly struck the rebels' shields. Coupled with the bombardment of King Liang, the rebels' shields A soon faltered.
At this moment, a man rushed out of the rebel formation and flew directly into the air.
He punched away Liu Yao's vitality sword, and at the same time blocked King Liang's attack.
The two sides fisted and palmed each other, and they all fell back.
"The traitor Lu Sanyuan, I didn't expect you to come in person!" King Liang's face looked a little ugly. Although the two of them retreated a lot at the same time, seemingly evenly matched, but just now the other party had repelled Liu Yao first and then faced him, obviously His strength is above his own.
"Lu Sanyuan?" Zu An was stunned when he heard this name, obviously not understanding it well.
Sang Hong on the side explained: "The leader of the rebels in Lushui County, the imperial court sent large forces to encircle and suppress him several times, but all ended in failure. When I saw him today, I didn't expect that he was so skilled. No wonder the imperial court's encirclement and suppression missions failed."
Zu An vaguely remembered that he had heard people talking about this person in Mingyue City, describing him as a ferocious man, as if he was a big devil who could eat people. But now the middle-aged man in the air has a face like a crown jewel, and with his long flowing hair, he looks more like a hermit who lives aloof from the world, rather than like a rebel leader.
"The famous King Liang is nothing more than this. If you submit to me today, I can spare your life. Otherwise, today next year will be the anniversary of your death." Lu Sanyuan stood in mid-air, with his hands behind his back, and his whole person had a sense of excitement. An inexplicable air of disdain.
In full view of everyone, King Liang could not lose his momentum and said bravely: "Humph, I think today is the day for you, the traitor, to be crowned!"
"How brave!" Lu Sanyuan's face turned cold, and he flew towards him like a roc spreading its wings. As he moved, the wind and cloud behind him changed color, and black air billowed behind him, vaguely forming a huge devil's head.
Prince Liang's expression changed, and he moved his hands outwards. Soon, a transparent film surrounded him, making him look like an egg.
The two collided quickly, and the billowing black air quickly enveloped King Liang.
Liu Yao on the side wanted to leave, but he was surrounded by black energy. Obviously Lu Sanyuan didn't want him to free his hands to deal with the rebels below.
The three of them fought back and forth in mid-air. Although Liang Wang and Liu Yao joined forces, Lu Sanyuan did not lose at all, and it was even him who was mainly attacking.
watching
The sky was full of black air, and the figures of Liang Wang and Liu Yao could only be seen occasionally, as if they were two-leaf boats in the angry sea that could be overturned by big waves at any time.
Zu An couldn't help but remind Huang Huihong on the side: "Aren't you going to help? Last time you were so coaxed by the imperial edict and all that, please come out and suppress this Lu Sanyuan again."
Who knew Huang Huihong wouldn't move at all: "Prince Liang and General Wei can hold on."
Zu An sighed: "I suspect you are betraying your teammates."
Yellow, gray and red: "..."
He snorted and stopped talking.
At this time, the rebels had already rushed over. The formation of the Forbidden Army caused a heavy loss to the rebel vanguard. A large number of corpses were hung directly on the spears.
It's just that there were too many rebels, and each one of them seemed to be on stimulants. Their eyes were red, and they screamed and stepped on the corpses of their companions and continued to charge upward.
Soon the two sides were in close combat. At first, the Forbidden Army tried their best to maintain a formation of a few people, but they could not withstand the continuous influx of rebels. In addition, Liu Yao was entangled, and without unified command, they quickly fell into fighting on their own. .
Huang Huihong used a soul hooking chain to fly away the nearby rebels. He and other embroidered cloth messengers shrank their defense line and surrounded the prison car of Zu An and others.
Because they were at the center of the formation, the rebels who could rush over were in the minority.
But despite this, the yellow-gray-red face is still a bit ugly, because it is only a matter of time before the rebels gather in large numbers.
"Commander, what should we do now?" Another embroidered messenger asked hurriedly.
Huang Huihong took a look at the situation and said solemnly: "Let's evacuate to a safe place first."
Zu An couldn't help but said: "Do you think you are running away from the battlefield?"
"Shut up!" Huang Huihong snorted, "My first priority is to send you safely to the capital. I can't care about the rest, and I don't want to care about it."
Sang Hong on the side spoke: "Commander Huang, why don't you unlock the restrictions on us? As an official of the imperial court, I have the responsibility to do my part in facing the rebels. In addition, I still have family members in the capital, so there is no need to worry about my recovery. Then he will take the opportunity to escape."
"Yes, Mr. Sang is also an eighth-level cultivator after all, so he should be able to have an impact on the battle situation." A messenger in embroidered clothes also whispered to Huang Huihong. Obviously, the current battle situation made them a little nervous.
"No!" Huang Huihong flatly refused. He didn't want to take any risks, "Let's go!"
After saying that, he took the two carriages and retreated to the other side. As long as they arrived at the nearest state or county, they would be safe and the army could be mobilized to help.
Seeing them leaving, the rebels immediately detached a group of people to chase them, but soon the Forbidden Army stopped them. Obviously the Forbidden Army also knew their mission. If something happened to Zu An and the others, he would be lucky enough to escape from the battlefield. Even if he survived, he would not be able to escape death even if he returned to the capital.
Huang Huihong and his party took this opportunity to escape into the nearby mountains and forests.
Seeing that they were out of the battlefield, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, several sharp swords suddenly stretched out from the ground and stabbed the lower bodies of the embroidered messengers very accurately.
