Let's talk about Qian Batian again. He didn't expect that Ma Ran seemed to be stronger than Zhang Yue. If he fought to the death, he might be able to kill the two of them; but he didn't want to take the risk and chop Zhang Yue into pieces. He was seriously injured, and he was not lightly injured, so he had to retreat to the wall he occupied before.
Qian Batian was a little annoyed. He was a little eager for success this time. Before the reinforcements arrived, many people had been killed and injured. Prime Minister You promised him before that he would send some people to help him annihilate Fantian Valley, and the two parties also agreed on a date. , someone should have been sent over a few days ago.
However, now that the right Prime Minister's people have not arrived yet, there is new movement outside the wall.
Less than a mile outside the wall, a lot of people wearing armor walked over. They should be soldiers of the imperial court, because people in the world did not have such attire.
As the group of people got closer and closer, there were more and more people. Qian Batian was overjoyed. The reinforcements finally arrived. He saw three people riding tall horses in the crowd, slowly standing out from the crowd and reaching the front.
One of the three people in the middle was wearing armor and a helmet, and his face could not be seen clearly; while the man riding on the left side of him was an old man, about seventy years old, with ordinary appearance and clothed in cloth. Qian Batian did not recognize him; the man among them was The man riding the horse on the right side looked like a scholar. Qian Batian felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
He didn't recognize any of the three people on horseback, so he was naturally a little confused. Of course, he didn't dare to open the wall door. He asked the Dark Wind Alliance disciple who was guarding here to go up to the wall and shout. Unexpectedly, the disciple just opened his mouth and didn't say anything. In the middle of a sentence, an arrow flew quickly from the opposite side and shot through his throat, killing him on the spot.
Seeing the tragic death of his own people, Qian Batian turned a blind eye, fearing that the people outside the wall were the right prime minister's people, and there was some misunderstanding between them, so he asked the other person to shout again.
The man climbed onto the wall tremblingly. Seeing that the other side did not move this time, he shouted loudly: "We are the Dark Wind Alliance. I wonder if you are reinforcements sent by Prime Minister Right?"
As soon as the words came out, there was no reply from the other party. The man among the three leaders pulled out the sword from his waist and swung it forward; he also shot an arrow from it, hitting the person who was calling in the face. The arrow's The force was so great that the arrowhead was exposed from the back of his head. The person hit by the arrow fell to the ground, moved a few times, and then lost his breath.
At this time, Qian Batian saw clearly that the person shooting the arrow was the old man on horseback. Before he put down the bow, there was a row of people behind him who were drawing bows and preparing to shoot.
Qian Batian secretly thought it was not good, and hurriedly shouted to everyone around him: "Everyone, stay back, the other side has bows and arrows."
As soon as he finished speaking, a row of arrows fell from the sky in unison. The arrow speed was extremely fast. Everyone in the Dark Wind Alliance retreated slowly. Some of them were injured by the sudden arrows. For a while, there were screams all around; and then, another The second batch of arrows fell from the sky, this batch of arrows was slightly farther, and again wounded many people.
After two rounds of arrows were fired, there were shouts of killing outside, and a group of people rushed over. The shield soldiers were in front, and behind them was a row of people holding ladders. It seemed that the other party was well prepared. After that, there was a row of swordsmen, and then It was a platoon of spearmen.
Qian Batian frowned slightly, and then looked at the three people on horseback, and the archers behind them, standing still. At this time, he remembered that the seemingly frail scholar among the three was actually known as the sage of calligraphy in the world. Wei Honglin was invited as a guest by Prime Minister Zuo some time ago. The two had met once before, and Prime Minister Right once told him to be careful about this person.
It is said that this man has been traveling around the world for many years, but no one knows what sect he came from, and he does not associate with any sect. He works alone. He has helped the court handle several major events, and has led troops to fight. He is also very skilled, so he is deeply loved. Being appreciated by the emperor, the title of Calligraphy Saint was given by the emperor.
Now that he knew where the other party came from, Qian Batian was at a loss what to do; he didn't know if Fantiangu had any grudge against the Prime Minister Zuo, but the Prime Minister You and the Prime Minister Zuo had always been at odds with each other, and his Dark Wind Alliance was a member of the Prime Minister You, so how could the other party Will turn a blind eye.
"Stand tight here." Qian Batian ordered as he descended the city wall and prepared to find the Four Immortals of Baimu Island. Now the situation was flanked by two sides. Only by borrowing the power of those four people could there be a glimmer of hope.
Immediately, the three of them watched the actions of the people in front of them. The person among them said to the old man beside him: "Master Xia, are you really going to eliminate the Dark Wind Alliance this time?"
"What? General Di, are you scared?" the old man replied with a smile.
"Hehe. Many of Prime Minister Right's people have been killed on the way, and Di has never been soft." The man said with the same smile.
"The people on the road before were from Prime Minister You, and this Dark Wind Alliance is also from Prime Minister You. What's the difference?" the old man said, closing his eyes slightly.
"It's just that this time I really killed Qian Batian of the Dark Wind Alliance. I'm afraid Prime Minister You won't let it go." The man expressed his concerns.
"The Dark Wind Alliance can't get on the stage. If you want to touch the Right Prime Minister, you should touch it first." The old man said.
"This time, are you really openly confronting Prime Minister Right?"
"It's time. The two sides have been feuding for many years, and it's time to put an end to it."
"Master Xia, who should be moved next?" the man asked, looking forward to it.
The old man glanced at the scholar on the other side and said, "You should ask Mr. Wei about this."
The scholar on the other side replied calmly: "Just wait and see what happens, be patient and don't be impatient."
"Okay." The man didn't ask any more questions. He knew that he was the general leading the troops and was the biggest here. However, the status of the two people beside him in Prime Minister Zuo's heart was much higher than his own, so he could only He tilted his head and said, "Since both of you have said so, let's settle the matter here first and discuss the rest later."
While the three of them were talking, four rows of people had already arrived at the foot of the wall, and they split up. Those who climbed the wall climbed the wall, those who attacked the door attacked, shouting to kill, with great momentum.
Everyone in the Dark Wind Alliance on the wall saw it, and they couldn't help but worry about their own situation. The opponent had a large number of people. If they really let the opponent get on the wall, they would inevitably be outnumbered. So, everyone worked together, using swords, guns and sticks, whatever they had on hand. They beat the officers and soldiers who climbed up the wall hard, and the door inside the wall was also tightly blocked.
Putting aside the situation on the wall, Qian Batian had just stepped off the city wall and before he could stand firmly, he heard someone at the gate shout loudly: "No, the door is open."
