Although the accuracy of the matchlock gun is poor, with so many volleys of barrages fired at the same time, it can always hit the target.
In just a blink of an eye, the level was surrounded by the whistling sounds of projectiles and arrows, as well as the wails and screams of people.
A large number of gangsters were caught off guard, and their bodies were all pierced by scorching bullets. They were cut down and rolled in a pool of blood everywhere.
Along with the bullets piercing the flesh of the body and the miserable screams that are not human-like, gorgeous peonies rose up on the level - "peonies" made of blood!
Blood splashed several feet high all of a sudden. Under the action of inertia, it flew and dispersed in mid-air, really like beautiful peonies.
It's a pity... these "peonies" have the characteristics of short-lived cereus.
As soon as it appeared, it quickly withered and fell.
"Raise the shield! Raise the shield! Raise the shield! Raise the shield quickly!" - Such a voice sounded in the level.
The gangsters reacted one after another, raising the thick wooden shields they had prepared early in the morning to block the barrage.
Matchlocks and bows and arrows are the basic weapons used by fire bandits - this is something everyone knows.
Therefore, in order to protect against the matchlock guns of the crusade, the Shoumazhong specially prepared a large number of extremely thick wooden shields.
These wooden shields... rather than shields, it might be more accurate to call them "walls".
Each shield is 30cm-50cm thick. The thickest ones are even more than half a meter thick.
Mount Soma is full of primeval forests, so preparing these wooden shields is effortless.
After all, the matchlock gun is still too backward. In terms of firepower, there is no way to compare with the most popular guns in the West such as the Spencer rifle. The power is adequate when shooting at an unarmored target, but facing a wooden shield that is tens of centimeters thick, it is a little weak.
After using this large shield as thick as a wall, the number of people who were shot was immediately greatly reduced.
However, the gangsters' faces did not show any signs of relaxation - because in addition to the "swarms" in front of them, there were also "swarms of locusts" above their heads that threatened their lives at all times.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang...
The sound of letting go of the bowstring resounded around Qingdeng.
Hundreds of feathered arrows carried wind and chill, bringing pain and death to the gangsters at the checkpoint.
The bow body of the Japanese bow is more than 2 meters long. Although the shape is a little exaggerated, its power is not small at all!
Even if you look at the whole world, He bow is undoubtedly the "heavy bow".
In terms of lethality, the He bow is even higher than the famous English yew longbow.
The arrow escaped from the tight bow string and flew into the air, flying straight into the sky in an arc. It flew to the highest point and then slowly descended, drawing a beautiful parabola.
One end of the parabola is connected to the bow formation of the crusade; the other end is connected to the heads of the bandits in the level!
The swarm of arrows piercing the sky, like black locusts, like a sudden rain, like a torrential flood, flooded the level in one breath.
It was like an invisible sickle slashing down on the head, harvesting dozens of "ears of rice" with just one blow.
The blood rain, which is completely different from being hit by projectiles, blooms and splashes everywhere in the level.
Because the lethality of the Japanese bow is much weaker than that of the matchlock gun, only an ordinary shield is enough to deal with the rain of arrows thrown by the crusade.
The gangsters hurriedly raised ordinary wooden shields of normal thickness above their heads, and the shields were riddled with holes like locust arrows.
Although the shield was raised in time, a small number of arrows still passed through the gaps between the shields and hit some unlucky people.
Although the negotiations between the two parties have broken down, in order to reduce the casualties of the troops as much as possible, my grandson still wants to promote "peace negotiations" as much as possible.
Therefore, for today’s battle, my grandson adopts the tactic of “shooting mosquitoes with artillery”—the Second Division, the Third Division, the Fourth Division, and the Eighth Division are all dispatched! The first team serves as the general reserve team. All his efforts are accomplished in one battle! A battle will hurt all the horses! The Xiangma people have been taught how to deal with the thieves with their teachings, so that the Xiangma people no longer dare to have any unrealistic ideas, and strive to promote peace negotiations in the follow-up!
The first, second, and fourth divisions are all iron artillery divisions, while the eighth division and the third division under Qingto are archery divisions. The numbers of the two teams were almost the same, so the density of barrage and arrow rain in the crusade was almost the same.
Under a series of superior firepower strikes, the level was littered with bullet holes and broken arrows.
The gangsters, who were unable to lift their heads under the barrage and rain of arrows, cowered their whole bodies behind the shield, not daring to expose any skin outside the shield.
Although Qingdeng had just taken office in the Huofu Thief Kaiyuan not long ago, he had already discovered that my grandson's prestige in the Huofu Thief Kaiyuan was extremely high.
He is obviously a "literary man" with a special brain, but he can make martial arts men like Kanazawa Chusuke and Mizushima Rensaburo obey his orders obediently.
At this moment, my grandson saw that this wave of firepower was almost ready to pour out, and he waved forward with a calm expression.
The soldier standing next to him holding the conch in his hand saw my grandson's gesture and immediately brought the conch to his lips again with quick eyes and hands:
Woohoo——! Woohoo——! Woohoo——! Woohoo——!
The loud conch horn drowned out the roar of muskets and bows.
Hearing the sound of the trumpet, Kanazawa Chusuke...the fierce general known as "The Dog of Fire", immediately jumped up like exploding lava:
"Everyone! Follow me!"
After all, Tadatsuki Kanazawa, who was given the power of "frontline command" by my grandson because he held the position of "deputy general of the army" in this battle, took the lead! Rushing straight through the barrier like a rabid dog!
At this moment, Qingdeng felt like a fire was burning in his chest for no reason.
Only then did Qingdeng suddenly realize: Although he has experienced hundreds of battles, fought countless life-threatening battles, and killed hundreds of souls under the sword, as of today, he has never fought in a battle... Never participated in a formal war!
The roar of iron cannons and the trilling of bowstrings filled my ears one after another.
The air became acrid and pungent, filled with thick smoke and heavy fog from burning gunpowder. There was a disgusting, bitter taste in my mouth that lingered no matter how hard I swallowed.
The fearful and nervous expressions of the comrades were everywhere as far as the eye could see.
The smell of blood wafting from the enemy's checkpoints from time to time repeatedly stimulates and provokes the nerves.
The smell of blood and death is all around him.
This should have been a terrifying scene that could make people go blank and frighten them.
But Qingdeng didn't feel scared or nervous at all.
He heard his heavy breathing, and felt his heart beating so fast and powerfully that it almost jumped out of his throat.
The blood is hot. The blood flowing in his veins seemed to be on fire, burning so much that wet and sticky sweat began to appear on his forehead and back.
Qingdeng didn't know why he was feeling so excited and calm at the same time.
I don’t know if it was affected by this strange emotion, but Qingteng’s body made strange movements - the moment after Kanazawa Chusuke yelled "Follow me", Qingteng's brain didn't have time to respond. The feet that were on the ground were "unauthorized" leaving the ground.
Once you take the first step, it's easy - rush towards the level of the Soumas with your body and mind!
At the same time, "Tiger of Fire" Mizushima Rensaburo and Aoto came out of the battle with their swords in no particular order.
A moment later, except for the general reserve team, each team put down their iron cannons, bows and arrows, took out their knives and spears, and changed their long-range attacks to close combat. They followed the brave 3 soldiers in the lead. After the captain!
The captain of the Eighth Division, Nobuyoshi Kazama, did not have the courage to charge forward like Aoto and Kanazawa Tadatsuki, so he did not mingle with the crowd until the large army started taking action, and followed the large army in action.
Using Aoto, Kanazawa Chusuke and Mizushima Rensaburo as arrowheads, the crusade army pressed against the riddled level with an overwhelming force!
In the eyes of the bandits in the level, it looked like a group of ferocious thunderclouds approaching them.
The neat black uniforms form the main body of the dim clouds.
The gleaming swords and guns are the lightning flashing continuously among the dark clouds.
The firepower prepared with a large amount of projectiles and arrows bought Qingden and others precious time for their charge.
When the bandits discovered that the crusade had begun to charge, they hurriedly threw away their shields and grabbed their swords, guns, bows and arrows. During the time they changed their weapons, Qingdeng and others safely advanced more than ten meters.
"Release the arrow! Release the arrow! Release the arrow!" - Such a voice sounded in the level.
After a few breaths, the gangsters' counterattack came.
At that moment, Qingdeng heard a hissing sound in front of him, and then it quickly grew louder and turned into a whistling sound of "chichichi".
Qingdeng subconsciously lowered his waist, and an arrow as thick as Qingdeng's finger drew a straight trajectory, passed close to his waist, and hit someone who was running behind Qingdeng. chest.
This Tongxin screamed, his body bent backwards from the center into a bow shape, and bounced back in a weird posture.
One arrow after another pierced the atmosphere, rushing to "bite" at the crusade.
Although Xiangma Zhong couldn't get firearms, they still had the ability to get bows and arrows.
The density of arrows thrown from the level was not very high, but it still caused a lot of trouble to Qingdeng and others.
Except for some strong-willed people who were not hit by the vital points, those unfortunate soldiers who were hit by the arrows all collapsed to the ground, covering the area where the arrows hit them and letting out painful whines.
At the critical moment when the whole army was charging, no one had the leisure and energy to deal with these people who were injured by arrows.
All Qingdeng and others could do was to avoid these injured soldiers who fell to the ground...and bless them, hoping that they could survive until help arrived.
Qingden's "Gathering God" and "Eagle Eye +2" are fully activated.
Suddenly an arrow shot towards Qingdeng's face.
The person who shot this arrow was obviously not very skilled. The arrow speed needs to be improved - with the blessing of the two talents of "Gathering God" and "Eagle Eye +2", Qingden can easily see through the arrow path.
The next moment, my body follows my heart. Qingdeng raised his sword and slashed forward - click - the arrow flew away.
Finally, after enduring the enemy's arrows and suffering countless casualties, the crusade finally succeeded in reaching the checkpoint of the Xiangma Zhong.
Kanazawa Chusuke: "Break the goal!"
A member of Tongxin, armed with a sledgehammer, a pull rope and other objects, rushed towards the gate of the checkpoint under the cover of his comrades.
The checkpoint built by Sangma Zhong on the mountain road is just a tall wooden wall made of wood. Behind the wooden wall, there are two symmetrical watchtowers.
Because it is made of wood and has a simple structure, it only takes a little time for the "engineers" to use sledgehammers, saws, and pull ropes to cut a large hole in the gate and wall of the checkpoint for the troops to pass through—— The premise is that the "engineers" must be bought the time to dig the hole.
A bloody melee began.
The gangsters took out their spears, stuck the spear heads out of the gaps in the wooden wall, and stabbed the crusaders outside the checkpoint like harpoons on fish.
The crusaders also used their spears. They poked their spears through the gaps in the wooden wall in the opposite direction to the gangsters. Like harpooning fish, they poked the gangsters wherever they saw them. where.
The two sides were poking each other with spears through the wooden wall... The scene became extremely funny.
But it was extremely bloody.
Spin, attack, gnaw, bite. Like a flood hitting a dam.
Casualties were rising rapidly—for both sides.
On the two watchtowers at the back of the level, a large number of gangsters were holding bows and arrows, and they continued to fire arrows at the crusade despite their sore arms.
There is no need to aim, the generals of the Crusade Army below are densely packed, like a colony of ants. No matter how you shoot, you can always hit the target.
Although they were in an unfavorable situation where they had to shoot from above, the counterattack of the conquering army was not without its influence.
Many soldiers from the Third Division and the Eighth Division once again drew their bows and arrows, throwing arrows towards the watchtower and behind the checkpoint.
This war between the two sides has suddenly become simple - whoever can grit his teeth and hold on, who can withstand the opponent's offensive, will be the winner!
There were gangsters holding spears in front of him trying to block him, and his comrades behind him pushing him forward vigorously. This crowded environment was very unfavorable for Qingdeng and made it difficult for him to exert his due strength.
At this time, a sudden change occurred.
Suddenly, a group of weird-looking gangsters appeared above the watchtower, holding clay pots containing unknown items.
"Throw it! Throw it all down!" - As someone yelled, the gangsters threw the clay pots in their hands hard and hit the crusade army who were still struggling to break through.
Click, click, click, click...
The clay pot shattered with the sound, and the transparent liquid stored inside was splashed out.
In the blink of an eye, a certain smell that should be quite familiar to every ordinary person filled the entire mountain road—the smell of oil!
It’s cooking oil for cooking and lamp oil for lighting!
not good!
As soon as the warning bell rang in Qingdeng's heart, he saw the bow-wielding gangsters upstairs using a different type of arrows - arrows with flaming arrow clusters!
"Let it go! Let it go! Let it go!"
A dazzling light appeared in the sky.
The rain of fire draws out streaks of neon-like light!
Oil and fire touch - bake!
The rugged road, which was uneven and full of gravels, suddenly burst into flames like new sprouts!
These tender "new sprouts" turned into strong "big trees" in just a blink of an eye!
The thick flame pillars are like tall trees rising from the ground, lush and green, with teeth and claws.
It's a pity that what it stretches out is not green branches, but tongues of fire that bring light and heat to mankind, as well as sorrow and death!
These rising flame pillars look like a monster with a huge mouth that swallows the sky.
If it opens its mouth just a little, it can eat the road and humans alive!
Many people were accidentally splashed by the oil thrown by the gangsters, and their bodies were covered with oil. The "monster" took the initiative to put bright "orange robes" on them.
Not far from Qingdeng, a man covered in fire was stumbling around and jumping around. He screamed, waved his hands irregularly, stamped his feet, and danced horribly.
No matter whether he was running or jumping around or rolling on the ground, he could never get rid of the fire demon wrapped around him.
The gangsters actually still have such a skill...!
For a moment, the expressions of Kanazawa Chusuke, Mizushima Rensaburo and other generals became extremely solemn.
Judging from the crazy energy of the Xiangma people who dug three feet into the ground during the robbery and wanted to dig out everyone's ancestral graves, it is only natural that they have a large amount of looted vegetable oil and lamp oil in their base area. things.
All living things have a natural fear of fire.
Under the fire attack of the bandits, the originally extremely tight military formation of the crusade suddenly became chaotic, and the morale was visibly shaken.
The attack effect was far better than expected, and the gangsters in the level showed expressions of ecstasy.
In order to fuel the fire, the gangsters frantically poured fire arrows at the crusade.
If this continues, the troops will suffer heavy casualties.
Kanazawa Chusuke and Mizushima Rensaburo pursed their lips, thinking about whether to retreat temporarily and fight back after regaining their strength.
However, at this moment, a certain swordsman showed an expression that was very different from Kanazawa Chusuke and Mizushima Rensaburo.
"..." The swordsman half-closed his eyes - he seemed to have thought of something serious or wanted to do something dangerous, with a solemn expression.
The rain of fire poured down on the swordsman.
The flames burning the atmosphere kept exploding and rising around the swordsman.
Danger is imminent.
The swordsman quietly turned his right wrist, and after the sword in his hand passed through half a graceful arc, it was held upside down and sheathed.
The next moment, the swordsman turned into an afterimage gliding at low altitude!
That stern look, that posture of jumping straight forward without hesitation, is like a white rabbit aiming at the ground, a cold eagle swooping down directly from the clouds in the sky - the "white rabbit" targeted by this "eagle" , it is the gate of the level!
During this period, many gangsters discovered the swordsmen who were rushing towards them and quickly raised their guns to stab them.
The swordsman's body is like a fallen leaf fluttering in the autumn wind, swaying lightly from side to side as the wind blows.
No matter what angle or force the spear was thrust at, the swordsman nimbly dodged it.
Soon enough, the swordsman was already approaching the gate of the checkpoint.
Bang——The swordsman stepped forward hard with his right foot and bent his left leg so much that his knee almost touched the ground.
At the moment when the swordsman's center of gravity was compressed to the limit, the dazzling white light and harsh clang expanded in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, a violent light crossed the air from bottom to top, and the white light gathered on the gate of the checkpoint in one breath!
Drawing the Sword Technique·Streaming Light!
Dingguishen soared into the sky in one breath and directly cut a huge slash from the lower right to the upper left on the gate of the checkpoint.
Immediately afterwards, Qingdeng turned the blade, changing the blade that originally pointed diagonally at the sky to pointing directly at the ground, and then slashed down with force.
Another knife mark was carved on the gate of the level.
Qingdeng’s offensive continues! In the blink of an eye, he deflected the blade for the second time! The blade that was pointing at the ground changed to point diagonally at the sky from the lower left to the upper right.
Another sharp sword light cut open the vision of everyone present... and the gate of the level!
In less than 2 seconds, he slashed three times in a row... The deep and long knife marks formed by the three slashes together formed a triangle.
The gate of the level was directly under Qingdeng's three blows, with a huge triangular gap!
Qingdeng's move directly stunned the enemy forces... and also stunned the friendly forces.
You know, the gate of the checkpoint is nearly 20 centimeters thick!
The 20-centimeter-thick wooden board was split open with a knife like a melon or a vegetable... This... this? !
"Crush this gap!"
Qingdeng's loud shout woke up the team members who were stunned by the move he just showed.
The group of "engineers" closest to Qingdeng were the first to react. They quickly rushed towards the huge gap created by Qingdeng with sledgehammers, saws, pull ropes and other items.
"No! Stop them! Stop them!"
There were anxious shouts and panicked commands from behind the level.
In the end, the gangsters were still half a step too slow - after all, they never expected that someone could actually cut a big gap in their gate with just a knife.
Under the joint operation of the "engineers", the gap created by Qingdeng was quickly expanded to enough to accommodate a person's free entry and exit.
It can accommodate one person entering and exiting...that's enough!
"Get out of the way!" Qingdeng yelled at everyone in front of him, jumped out like a tiger, jumped to the front of the gap that was finally opened, and then rushed into the level along the gap without thinking, becoming the first person since the battle began. The first person to successfully pass the level since!
A big hole was ripped out of the checkpoint gate - this had a huge impact on the gangsters.
In an instant, they rushed forward, howling and screaming, trying to drive Qingdeng out of the gap and fill it again.
In the gap, what greeted them was the cold sword light of Dingguishen.
The entry "Lonely" flashed with dazzling golden light!
Qingdeng howled, waving the Dingguishen that had accompanied him in his long battle like a wheel.
The blade of the blade was lifted up and opened the forehead of a certain gangster.
The blade pressed down and cut open the belly of a certain gangster.
The blade thrust forward and pierced the heart of a certain gangster.
Groups of gangsters came from all directions, but no one could stop Qingdeng!
Dingguishen is like a strange vessel that can spurt out blood and broken limbs.
The blade is everywhere and blood is flying! The stump falls!
The blades are everywhere, and those who hold them will be broken! Those who are struck will be defeated!
The sword light, stained red with blood, revealed a color between rose and wine in the sunlight.
The gangsters who were trying to fill the gap fell to the ground one after another like weeds being cut.
The mutual superposition of "lonely courage" and "gathering spirit" made Qingdeng's concentration at the moment terrifyingly concentrated.
In his eyes, there were no living people... only dolls waiting to be chopped down by him!
At this time, Qingdeng was like a fighting machine running with blood as fuel.
Efficiently distinguish between friendly and enemy situations.
Kill enemies with your sword efficiently!
Standing in the gap, he successfully defended this precious "bridgehead" with his strong fighting power and high fighting spirit!
Soon enough, a bright spear rushed towards Qingdeng's face.
Qingdeng turned his head, and the gun tip was pressed against his neck... to be precise, it was pressed against the chain mail on Qingden's neck, and sparks flew out.
In the next moment, Qingdeng turned his head in the opposite direction, clamped the barrel of the gun tightly with his side face and shoulders, raised his left hand and gripped the gun body tightly, preventing the opponent from taking the gun back.
In the next moment, Qingdeng slashed forward diagonally, splitting the spear into two pieces. Then, he drove the short spear in his hand into the opponent's chest.
He just pressed the broken section of the gun against the opponent's body, using the person as a shield to push against the gangsters behind him.
The gangsters fell into a heap like ears of rice blown down by the wind.
At this point, Qingden has penetrated deep into the back of the level.
The gangsters anxiously tried to counterattack.
But at this moment, they suddenly heard the sound of rocks and hard earth being violently trampled.
Like ocean waves.
Like a storm.
It's like giving funeral fun to gangsters!
Kanazawa Chusuke: "Follow Tachibana-kun!"
The crusade crossed the "bridgehead" that Qingdeng fought hard to defend, flowed over the checkpoint like a tide, and further tore open the enemy's gap opened by Qingdeng!
Before he could think about it carefully, the two parties collided with each other.
In terms of combat power, it is impossible for bandits who make a living by robbing homes and houses to defeat the Huofu bandits who are listed as one of the standing armies of the shogunate.
The soldiers who attacked the bandits at first were like awls, piercing into the bandits separately and launched a thunderous offensive.
However, the ferocious bandits who lick blood from their swords are not weak rag dolls that can be bullied.
The bandits seemed to understand that if they did not win this battle, they would all be doomed, so they did not need the commander's instructions or mobilization. With high fighting spirit, they spontaneously raised their weapons and bravely fought against the conquering army. The soldiers fought together.
The timely arrival of friendly forces greatly reduced Qingdeng's pressure - he was able to let go and fight more fearlessly!
His footsteps sometimes accelerated and sometimes slowed down, in order to give his body, which was already covered in heat and sweat, and his chest, which had been rising and falling violently like a bellows, a break.
He rushed into the turbulent and chaotic battlefield, raised his head and chest, dashed left and right, his sword shined, tearing apart the enemy's formation repeatedly.
He wields a knife, steps and jumps! Pools of blood flowed all over the ground, splattering and splintering repeatedly under his feet. The flickering light of the sword was like a silver flying swallow that repeatedly pounced on the overcoming waves.
"Feiyan" pounces on the waves, then turns over to meet the next wave. It barely stops for a moment. Every time the "Feiyan" soars, someone is bound to be injured and fall to the ground.
The swordsman roared like a lion and his heart beat!
At this time, the sound of a knife broke through the sky.
As if being summoned by the sound of the sword, Qingden followed the sound and saw a very majestic warrior a few steps away from his right side, displaying a nearly 2-meter-long giant Odachi held high above his head. heroic figure.
There was no time to see its appearance, but the dangerous aura was already approaching!
Odachi - a strange weapon invented by the samurai of the Kamakura period to show off their heroism and strength.
There are very few people who can master the skills of this weapon, but there is no doubt that if you can master the use of the Odachi skillfully, then this person will be a very terrifying existence on the battlefield!
Buzz...the air started to vibrate.
The Odachi struck with force caused a large amount of airflow.
Everything around him seemed to be swept up by the air flow blown by the Odachi, with dust and smoke billowing. The passage of time seemed to slow down.
Going head-to-head with a guy who's using a big sword? Qingdeng did not have such leisure and energy.
Qingdeng raised the tip of his sword to fix ghosts and gods, and used Xia Duan to gain momentum.
The next moment, he disappeared from where he was.
Qingden used the powerful leg strength given by "Bear's Waist +1" and "Leading the Horse" to jump up like he was crushing the ground.
Qingdeng flew out like an arrow from a string. Rather than "leap up", it might be more accurate to say "fly up"!
Qingden, who looked like a ghost, nimbly passed under the blade of the Odachi, and struck straight behind the Odachi with his sword, aiming at the gangster who was holding the Odachi.
Tsk - the familiar feel of sharp blades cutting and penetrating flesh continuously spread to Qingdeng's palms.
He penetrated the opponent's waist with just one blow, and the blade sank into the opponent's body until the blade was pressed against his flesh.
"Haaah...!"
Qingdeng let out a short shout, and then exerted force on his legs, waist, and wrists at the same time! Use the sword in your hand to sweep it horizontally in the direction of the blade!
Chi la - a sound like tearing cloth.
Ding Guishen's blade cut open the opponent's abdomen from the tang to the tip. Qingdeng's head was close to the opponent's body, passing through the opponent's right armpit height and ducking behind the opponent.
This gangster who uses an Odachi as a weapon has only about half of his upper and lower body connected by flesh and skin.
However, his vitality is extremely tenacious.
Half of his waist was cut open... He suffered such an injury that a normal person would have collapsed on the ground, unable to move, and could only slowly wait for death. However, he did not fall to the ground, nor did he lose consciousness. He even responded to the injury. Qingdeng launched a final desperate counterattack.
"Ho...ho...hoahhhhh...!"
A hoarse roar burst out from his throat. He threw away the Odachi sword in his hand, stretched out his hand and took out a small sword, turned around and stabbed Qingden in the back.
Unexpectedly, Qingdeng was still able to stand up and launch a counterattack. His reaction was half a beat too slow. Although he successfully dodged the incoming sharp sword, his left elbow, which was not protected by armor, was accidentally cut open. A faint trace of blood.
"Haaah...! Haaaah...!"
This guy persisted and stabbed Qingdeng three more times, but Qingdeng easily dodged them all.
When the man was about to strike out with the fourth sword, Qingdeng struck back with his sword, sending the man to hell.
Although this guy's tenacious persistence and counterattack delayed Qingdeng a lot of time, the delayed time was not wasted -
【Ding! Scan to talent]
[Successfully copied talent: "Iron Waist"]
[Introduction to talent: The waist is less likely to be strained, injured, or fatigued]
【Ding! It is detected that the host already has the same type of talent]
【Ding! Start talent fusion]
[Please wait a moment, host...Please wait a moment, host...]
["Iron Waist" ability promotion - "Iron Waist +1"]
["Iron Waist +1" talent introduction: The talent effect is enhanced on the original basis. "+9" is the highest level]
The long-lost fusion of talents.
It's a pity that Qingdeng has no time to rejoice that his waist strength has increased.
The wound left by the guy who used the Odachi just now on Qingteng's left elbow was not deep, but it still sent real pain to Qingteng's nerves.
The pain was like a surge of electricity, causing Qingdeng's consciousness to briefly break away from the "killing machine" state.
"Ha...! Ha...! Ha...! Ha...! Ha...! Ha...!"
It wasn't until his spirit regained its "lucidity" that Qingdeng was shocked to realize that his breathing was completely messed up.
The breath sprayed out from his mouth and nose turned into dense white mist in the cold autumn sky. The rapid breathing formed a thick sound barrier, making Qingden almost unable to hear other sounds from the outside world.
There was a dull pain in both lungs, and the muscles felt sore and heavy, as if they had been injected with lead water.
The complex and ever-changing battlefield situation posed a huge challenge to Qingdeng's physical strength.
Even with the support of "Strengthening Muscles +1" and "Iron Lung", Qingdeng's body was still unable to bear the high-intensity consumption.
Qingdeng raised the back of his left hand and wiped the light red liquid composed of his own sweat and the enemy's blood that was about to fall down his chin. He evened out his breathing and looked around.
no the same……
It is different from every battle I have experienced in the past...
Qingdeng's eardrums were sore from the noisy noise that he had never heard before, completely different from the noise in the bustling city and every battle he had experienced before.
At this moment, Qingdeng had a strange feeling that he couldn't distinguish between up, down, left, right, east, west, north and south - looking up, there were battles happening everywhere. No matter which direction he looked, he could see battles happening. He didn't know it anymore. Where are you now?
Familiar faces, faces I have never seen before; faces deformed by pain, faces twisted by excitement; flying arrows, leaping sword light; blood foam flying in the air - mixed and passing through the green... Den's view.
At this moment, neither the expeditionary army nor the Xiangma people had any formations to speak of.
The two sides are entangled, I am among you, and you are among me.
The dancing spear of this one pierced the wooden shield of that one, and the cold arrow released by that one pierced the throat of this one.
This one's swinging fist smashed the bridge of that one's nose, and that one's flying kick hit this one's crotch.
The one's swing of the knife cut off the other's throat, and the other's lifeless impact knocked down the other's body.
The air was filled with the stench of blood and the burning stench of the raging fire demon. These odors were mixed with billowing smoke and dust, making it difficult to breathe.
Qingdeng, who was accustomed to "facing the enemy alone", had never seen such a battle?
At this moment, Qingdeng's mind suddenly murmured like this:
——Is this... war...?
Now is not the time to turn into a great philosopher and ponder these difficult questions.
With the blessing of "Strengthening Essence" that enhances the speed of physical recovery, Qingden quickly adjusted his breathing rhythm.
As soon as he took a step forward, ready to rejoin the battlefield, he suddenly felt something rushing towards him from behind, accompanied by the sound of the air being cut open.
Qingdeng's back instantly felt like chicken skin, and he dodged to the left like a conditional launch.
A sword was slashed towards the position where Qingdeng was standing just now - the sword holder was a majestic gangster wearing red armor.
With such obviously high-quality armor to wear... this person must have a certain status among the Souma people.
"I am a member of the Sendai clan, Kagami Akechi-ryu, and Yuki Tsunekichi!" he shouted, "Suffer death!"
They have already become bandits, but they are still practicing the "samurai duel" thing... A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of Qingden's lips.
"Drink ah ah ah!"
A gangster who calls himself Yuki Tsunekichi attacks with a sword.
But as soon as he raised the knife, Qingdeng had already disappeared without a trace.
"Where are you looking?"
"————?!"
Using the powerful explosive power given by "Bear's Waist + 1" and "Leading the Lead", Aomori leaped into the air, and used the gravity acceleration of the Dingkishin in his hand to hit Yuki Tsunekichi's head hard.
Yuki Tsunekichi's helmet saved...or briefly saved his life.
Although the mottled helmet on his head only had a thin layer of iron, it still absorbed part of the force of Qingdeng's slash and caused the sword path to be slightly skewed.
Snap - Yuuki Tsunekichi's helmet was directly split into two, and a large gap was opened at the Tianling Cap. Blood sprayed out like a fountain along the large gap.
In the blink of an eye, Yuuki Tsunekichi's entire face was stained a terrifying red by his own blood.
At this time, Yuki Tsunekichi suddenly let out a weird groan of pain.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Dense red blood threads climbed up the whites of Yuuki Tsunekichi's eyes like spider webs.
"Drink ahhhhhhhhhhh-!"
Yuuki Tsuneki suddenly surged up and rushed towards Aoden like a mad bear.
Although Yuki Tsunekichi's "physical impact" was full of momentum, it was obviously impossible to hit Aomori with this kind of attack that only had momentum but no skills and no speed.
Aoto took a step to the right and passed Yuki Tsunekichi lightly. Immediately afterwards, he thrust his sword forward and pierced Yuki Tsunekichi's unprotected throat with one blow.
The throat was pierced... This should be an injury that would kill a person beyond death.
But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
I saw Yuuki Tsunekichi's red bloodshot eyes tilted in the direction of Aomori. Then, he threw away the knife in his hand and raised his hands, firmly holding the Dingguishen that was inserted in his throat!
What——A strong shock appeared on Qingdeng's eyebrows.
He tried to pull Seikishin back, but whether it was the flash of light before his death or some other reason, Yuki Tsunekichi burst out with astonishing wrist strength and resilience at this moment.
For a moment, Qingdeng was unable to quickly take back the ghosts and gods.
At this time, out of the corner of Qingden's eyes, he suddenly caught a glimpse of two figures holding bright swords, running toward him from the left and the right.
"Hee..." Yuki Tsunekichi cast a sinister look at Aoden, curved the corners of his mouth upwards, and let out a gloomy, proud sneer.
At this critical moment, a loud shout suddenly burst out from behind Qingdeng:
"Nioh!"
Qingden turned his head and looked back - a knife was spinning through the air and flying straight towards him!
The "Tiger of Fire" is here!

The author had a great time writing this chapter.
The author's debut novel was about war (that is, "Military Genius"), so I felt a strange sense of nostalgia when writing this chapter. (Leopard cry.jpg)
The total number of people on both sides barely exceeded 500 in this small-scale battle, but I wrote it as if it were a decisive battle... As expected of me! (Pride of the Leopard.jpg)
This chapter is a rare 10,000-word chapter, and the quality is very high. It’s really unjustifiable not to give me a monthly ticket! (Leopard head crying.jpg)
Asking for a monthly ticket! Please vote for recommendation!
