Suzhou Prefecture, Hulong Street.
The bluestone road paved in the Song Dynasty trembled slightly, and a group of people walked on the street in the dark, like ghosts walking in the dark night.
Occasionally, people who were watching the New Year at home heard the noise and stuck their heads out to see the reflection of armor and weapons. They were immediately frightened, turned around and bolted the door tightly, took out all the movable things in the house and blocked it behind the door.
Then he covered his child's mouth and hid in the deepest part of the house, shivering.
The common people who came from the war years of the late Yuan Dynasty all know what such movement means...
"Young Master, we are about to arrive at Pishi Street." Ma Fengsun said to Zhang Ren.
"This street is tight and difficult to navigate, so we'd better walk faster."
"Yes." Zhang Ren sat on a horse. Although the horse was used to pull carts just now, it was still a powerful horse. With the heavy armor, Zhang Ren felt like he had returned to the old days of Zhang Shicheng's majesty. "Step through this street, then cross the Golden Mother Bridge, and you will reach the reserve warehouse built next to the government office."
"Everyone, hurry up. Although we don't light torches, the noise of marching in armor is too loud after all. If we don't keep it together, the Mingguo who watches the night will overhear it..."
"It's okay if you want to come." Ma Fengsun smiled coldly. "We are all here, and Ming Gou has not responded. Even if we are discovered now, by the time they go to the guard camp to bring in reinforcements, we will have already captured the reserve warehouse."
"A few government officials guarding the warehouse can do nothing to us."
"Hey, that's a pity." Zong Laosan, who was dressed in human armor, laughed ferociously. "With this armor, I'm afraid my old sect won't be able to kill you fast enough!"
"I wish that a bright dog would show up right now. I would just kill him all the way from the streets of Pi City to the end of the street!"
Zong Laosan said so boldly that everyone laughed. Almost all of them came out for this trip, totaling five to six hundred people. There were more than fifty soldiers leading the way. Such a lineup would be difficult even if they walked sideways in Suzhou Mansion. Burning a mere preparation warehouse is overkill.
Being able to get here is almost half of the success.
"Then let's hurry up." Zhang Ren smiled. "If you move quickly enough, you might still have time to make a comeback."
"Taking advantage of the chaos, I took away the kid Zhu Su who was in the building on the west side of the city."
When Zhu Su was mentioned, Ma Fengsun and Zong Lao's eyes lit up. If Zhu Chongba, his own son, could be captured, I really don't know how much benefit could be squeezed out.
Zhang Renzhi was so proud that he clamped the horse's belly and was about to move forward. Suddenly, there was a sound of wind in his ears, and he heard the third clan elder next to him shout: "Young master, be careful!", and then there was a clang, and his head hurt. , something seemed to hit the helmet.
"Someone is attacking! Light a torch!" Ma Fengsun shouted.
"Tsk!" Di Meng, hidden in the darkness, spat. It was true that he couldn't shoot accurately in the dark. He was clearly aiming at the horse's crotch, but his shot missed the opponent's head.
By the way, this helmet is too hard! If this guy didn't wear a helmet, this arrow would have saved countless things!
After missing a hit, Di Meng immediately turned his horse and headed in the opposite direction of Zhang Ren and his party. While Ma Fengsun supported Zhang Ren, who was staggering off his horse, he caught a glimpse of Di Meng's figure escaping in the alley: "There! It must be Ming Gou's night patrol detective!"
All of a sudden, flying knives, arrows and other things were shot at Di Meng. Fortunately, Di Meng was also riding a horse, and after dodging left and right, he was not caught by the opponent. But at this time, it was impossible to rely on assassination to establish the situation. Di Meng ran and shouted: "Light the fire! Get ready to meet the enemy!"
At both ends of the long street, the torches in the hands of the two men and horses lit up for a while.
Only then did Zhang Ren and his party realize that across the dark leather market street, at some point, there was already a group of well-organized elite soldiers standing there!
"How generous..."
"Ming Gou has an ambush already!"
Zong Laosan spat on the ground.
"This..." Zhang Ren was knocked dizzy by the arrow just now, and his head was still buzzing. He hugged the helmet and touched it for a while before he came back to his senses. But his face was already pale: "This... what should I do?"
"Looking for another path?" Seeing that the Ming army was well prepared, someone asked with a pale face.
"Look for another path!" Ma Fengsun glared and pulled out the big blade from his waist. "If I turn around at this time and my tail is caught, everything will be over!"
"It's just a street, come with me and go there!"
"……kill!!"
…
Seeing that the other party had drawn their weapons, Di Meng's face darkened again. Damn it, I couldn't scare these thieves.
They knew they were being ambushed but still had high morale. This group of thieves and bandits would definitely be difficult to deal with. But now there is no other way. When encountering each other on a narrow road, the brave wins, so Di Meng could only let go of his luck.
He raised his long knife high above his head and shouted: "The thieves have been ambushed by our army, we will be victorious!"
"This is a military achievement for nothing! His Highness said that if this bandit army is completely wiped out, he will be rewarded heavily!"
"Brothers! Charge with me!"
"Oh!" King Wu's guards were full of morale!
Two fire dragons at the end of the street collided fiercely in the darkness of New Year's Eve. Di Meng took advantage of his horse's momentum and struck the sword of a general wearing heavy armor who rushed towards him first. He felt a soreness and tingling in his hand that made him scream inwardly. I saw the general, who was almost entirely wrapped in armor leaves, grinning and showing his big yellow teeth:
"The little baby has some strength."
"It's a pity that he is not a match for your grandpa from the Zong family!"
As soon as he pressed the knife, Di Meng suddenly felt a huge force pushing him, and he was about to fall backwards and off the horse uncontrollably. Seeing that another soldier behind him was about to stab him with a spear, an arrow came out from behind him and shot directly at the opponent's door, forcing the life-threatening spear away.
"Captain Di is right!" Cao Yuan shouted towards Di Meng as he ran towards this place.
"The alley is unfavorable for war horses, so abandon your horses to meet the enemy!"
Di Meng immediately followed his example, rolled a few times on the ground, and hid behind the forest of guns erected on his robe. "Thank you!"
But he was secretly frightened in his heart. What a strong strength! They were even several times more powerful than the guards of the Hou Mansion that they faced during the drill on the school field that day!
"No problem, hurry up and meet the enemy!" Cao Yuan abandoned his bow and drew his sword.
After knowing that the enemy had dozens of soldiers, Di Meng made a prompt decision and arranged Zhu Su's personal guards and Wu Wang's guards, who were also equipped with heavy armor, in front of the formation, intending to use heavy armor against heavy armor to block the enemy's first charge.
But the enemy is really brave, and those who are still loyal to Zhang Shicheng at this time are naturally desperadoes.
Even Di Meng, who ranked first in the training, was forced off his horse by the heavy-armored general. Although Wu Wang's guards were well-trained on weekdays, they had never experienced a real killing array. When their blood surged, they just Blindly squeezing forward, it turned out to be a bit chaotic.
"Don't push forward together! Form a formation to meet the enemy!" Cao Yuan also wore a piece of heavy armor from King Wu's guards. Seeing Wu King's guards suddenly getting into a mess, he immediately knew that these young people were too energetic and were overwhelmed by their blood. mind.
After all, he had been on the battlefield, he reminded loudly in a hurry.
Di Meng was startled, as if waking up from a dream. "The road is narrow and difficult to enter. The front row raises their shields! The back row quickly forms a formation to meet the enemy!"
The guards were giving orders, and the king's guards immediately took action. The king's guards holding heavy shields struggled to withstand the enemy's charge. The soldiers behind immediately stopped and quickly organized a group of dozens of people into separate small groups. The military formation is coming.
"kill!!!"
The cry of killing resounded through the night sky!
