Chapter 433 The white-haired young man
Li Chengtao's face was very ugly. After entering Zhong Mansion, he had already been on high alert, especially after arriving in Zhong Qian's courtyard, he was already ready for battle. But the thin old man in front of him still died suddenly in front of him, and he didn't even have time to stop him!
He looked at the young man who suddenly appeared in the courtyard outside the hall. The man had silvery white hair, but his face was indeed extremely young. He looked only about twenty years old.
But Li Chengtao knew that the other person must be quite old. The reason for having such strange appearance and features could only mean that this person had entered the advanced level of the chivalrous realm at a very young age.
A warrior's martial arts cultivation can indeed delay the aging of the physical body. Just like Zhao Yuntian and Zhao Yunming, their actual ages have long been the same as Lin Hengshan's. They are both grandfathers, but they only look middle-aged. Then there are people like me, who are actually in their thirties, but from the outside they still look like a young man with a hint of bookishness.
But the white-haired young man in front of me is different! The aging of his appearance can no longer be called slow, but rather a reverse growth trend. Although this is only limited to the face, parts such as hair are still aging and turning gray, but this is a manifestation of a profound martial arts realm.
After ordinary warriors reach the peak of the chivalrous realm, they will stop the aging of their muscles and bones. This kind of aging is not about immortality, but about keeping the physical body in a peak state as much as possible before its life span is over.
Li Chengtao was vaguely aware that the mysterious white-haired young man in front of him had probably broken through the first level of the third level and the twelve levels, and entered the fifth level of the middle martial arts realm!
The third level corresponds to the three realms, the first to the first and fourth levels, corresponding to the knight, that is, the lower martial realm. The fifth to eighth levels correspond to heroes, namely: the middle martial arts realm. The fifth level to the twelfth level naturally correspond to the Congsheng, that is, the upper martial realm.
Judging from the sword the opponent used to kill Zhong Qian just now, this person is probably a strong hero in the middle martial arts realm!
"Who is your Excellency?" As the peak combat power of Yinren Town, he could not take it lightly and asked in a deep voice.
At the same time, the inner energy in Captain Chengtao's body was also running unreservedly.
"Who am I? Haha, isn't your salary organization known as the strongest intelligence organization in Luoye County?" The white-haired young man who walked in grinned and continued: "Guess it, you are right, I will spare you a moment Life!"
Li Chengtao didn't feel angry because of what the other party said. He knew that the other party had the strength to say this.
"You are from Luo Yunzong."
"Not bad!" The white-haired young man nodded. At this time, he had slowly walked into the fighting room. He glanced at Zhong Qian, who had lost his life, and his smile became even bigger!
Li Chengtao finally understood why the man in front of him suddenly shot Zhong Qian. It turned out that he had been here once before, but for some reason? he didn't kill the Zhong family's butler immediately. Judging from his expression, he really enjoys this process of toying with the enemy in front of him.
"Master Zhao also died in your hands, right?" Li Chengtao was still staring at the other person's eyes, holding the Zimu Yin Yang Sword tightly in his hand. The yin and yang double wheels in the body are running wildly!
"You mean that tall and thin man? Haha, not bad, not bad? He has to force himself to leave clues even before he dies... Look at how hard he is trying to use up all his energy and blood! Tsk tsk? He is also a man!"
"So? You discovered it at that time?" Li Chengtao's face became more and more ugly. Although he had been silently chanting in his mind to calm down, the enemy in front of him was indeed too rampant. It was not easy to endure until now.
The white-haired young man raised his eyebrows and said, "What if?"
boom!
There were no signs? There were no words. Just after the white-haired young man finished asking questions, the two figures bumped into each other heavily. A sudden violent shock wave of internal energy directly razed this huge courtyard to the ground. Several courtyards of other tribesmen around him were also damaged, with varying degrees of damage.
"Oh? Yin-Yang Double Wheel Technique? Haha? I see... I asked Ji Shen to help that idiot, why is he always crushed in your hands." As he spoke, he slashed Li Chengtao with his sword and slashed him. Fly out.
Captain Chengtao, who was wearing a white jumpsuit with a hood, was extremely shocked. The sword strike just now was the "Chasing Wind and Shadow Slash" that he had been preparing for a long time! Its power and speed are no less than those of "Guanghan Nineteen States", but it still has little effect.
At this time, the white-haired young man who was in mid-air had a certain evaluation of Li Chengtao in his heart. His strength was at the top level of the knight realm, and it was difficult for him to have an opponent in the knight realm. However, he still had to fight against a strong hero in the knight realm. disparity. After all, even the weakest hero-level warrior is not something Li Chengtao can bear.
The battle between the two people here immediately attracted the attention of Yinren's senior management. It has to be said that the guard system of Yinren Town is indeed terrifyingly powerful. Basically, the moment the two of them fought, several knight-level warriors The strong man went straight to the Zhong family's mansion.
…………Dividing line…………
Camp in the north of Yinren Town.
This is an important defense area in the northern part of Yinren Town. Since Tiexin Village was included in the territory, the northern camp of the original Tiexin Village was also included in the northern defense area. The northern defense area consists of two large battalions and is guarded by so many troops, making it quickly become the core armed base of the entire north.
In addition, with the expansion of the town's building complex, the original Yinren Village was no longer enough for trade development, and the location of Liangchengang gradually shifted from military to trade activities.
The person guarding here at this time is none other than Qingzhu, the leader of the intelligence team of the mountain patrol team.
Tonight, he stood on the tower and looked to the south of the camp, which was in the direction of Yinren Town. The man prayed secretly in his heart: We must get through tonight!
As if his worries were fulfilled, two iron-clad guards came up, bowed and said, "Sir, around sunset today, there is a large-scale troop mobilization in Luoye City. It looks like..."
"Speak directly if you have anything to say!" Qingzhu shouted.
The guard in iron clothes immediately responded: "There will be an attack on the camp tonight!"
The middle-aged mountain patrol member, who has been engaged in intelligence work for many years, let out a long sigh of relief and said calmly: "Let Xia Mingfei and Wu Quanxi keep an eye on the enemy and report any situation at any time!"
"As you command!"
The last time Xia Mingfei completed the "Super-Earth Mission" with Yi Xifeng and others, the method he mastered to communicate with animals was indeed very useful and even sometimes brought surprises! Wu Quanxi's "night vision" ability also exerts a strong insight in such night battles.
After arranging all this, he looked back behind him, where Yinren's position was.
…
Ji Shenfu looked at the black knight behind him, as well as Ji Rentu and Qin Kai beside him.
Tonight's actions, in the eyes of Luoye City, are indeed extremely crazy! As the commander of the six gate guards, Qin Kai never left Luoye City again after taking the position of commander. Only a hundred black cavalry followed them out tonight, attacking Yinren Town overnight. This undoubtedly impacted his knowledge and understanding of military strategy.
"Sir, are we just going to send a hundred black knights? This... this Yinren Town is not made of paper. Wouldn't this be a waste?"
The Lord Commander was naturally aware of the worries about his beloved general, but he chose to persevere. Because he knew that the white-haired young man, or Elder Zhou of Luo Yunzong, was already causing trouble in Yinren Town.
Leading the troops inside and outside together is the best time to completely defeat Yinren Town.
"It's not about the number of soldiers, it's about the quality! He Yinren dares to attend the banquet with five people, but I, Luoye, can't intercept the camp with a hundred cavalry?!"
Qin Kai's face turned red. He wanted to say, "No!" But then he thought about it. If he said such depressing words at this time, he would not be able to bear the risk of being labeled as confusing the morale of the army.
Whatever! Let's go with the Lord Commander first. If something happens, we have to protect the master and escape no matter what. As if he had made up his mind, Qin Kai looked at the black horse under his crotch, and said with a smile: "With you here, I can do anything in the world!"
After that, he raised the whip in his hand and urged the black horse to follow Ji Shenfu closely.
It didn't take long for these one hundred black riders to enter Yinren's northern border. Looking at the direction of the surrounding mountains, it should be not far from the northern camp.
"Brother, in front of us should be Yinren's northern camp. We have captured it before. The defense of that camp is very tight and cannot be attacked forcefully!" The speaker was Ji Rentu. When they made a surprise attack on Liangchen Gang, they Use this northern camp as a forward bastion for battle.
You must know that the most taboo thing in a war to invade the enemy's territory is to fight a protracted war. Regardless of the fact that the enemy's recovery speed in a protracted war is much higher than our own, the cost of transporting food and grass alone is frighteningly high. The sources of supplies for combat troops guarding territory are much easier.
The strategic significance of this northern camp, which is similar to a battle forward fortress, is much stronger than the tactical significance of capturing it.
…
But before they could get close to the brightly lit northern camp, a wave of arrows rained down from the sky.
Although it was pitch dark at this time and these black riders came from the forest, the night and tree branches helped them block most of the arrow attacks, but they still caused some casualties to Ji Shenfu and his party.
"What's going on? How did they discover us?" Ji Shen turned around and glanced at the black knights behind him. Each of them had their hooves wrapped in pads and had bits in their mouths.
Even if he were to die, this Lord Commander would not believe that there was a warrior with night vision ability like "Wu Quanxi" in this world.
"Sir, the enemy only has a hundred riders, but looking at their moving speed, there are at least three masters among them!" Wu Quanxi blinked his big, dull eyes, and those pale eyes made people look... Interesting and scary.
"Three masters? How high are they?" the middle-aged man on the side continued to ask.
"It's hard to say. In the end, he must be a strong warrior in the chivalrous realm." Wu Quanxi replied honestly. The middle-aged man next to him is the highest-ranking person in the northern defense zone at this time, and he is also the temporary person in charge - Qingzhu.
Hearing this, Qingzhu already had some guesses about Luoye City's lineup this time.
Based on past experience, the troops sent to attack Yinren Town this time had only a hundred cavalry, and there would not be too powerful warriors. From Wu Quanxi's observation, three knights actually came, which was enough to see their determination.
"Send a signal to Xiying and let them start shooting with bows and arrows!" Qingzhu immediately ordered.
The so-called Western Camp is actually the division of camps in the northern defense zone. Because the camp to the west was formerly part of Tiexin Village and was later annexed by Yinren, it still retained its original establishment, but the people stationed there were changed again and became a group of guards in iron armor! Dongying naturally refers to the camp that originally belonged to Yinren.
Ji Shenfu felt the rain of arrows flying from the sky, frowned slightly, and said in a cold voice: "Death is imminent, but you still resist! People are slaughtered, Qin Kai! Follow me to attack the camp!"
Following his order, the three figures headed straight for the camp gate through the night.
"No, Master Qingzhu, those three masters are here!" Wu Quanxi shouted in a deep voice.
At this time, the three people had already moved closer, and the familiar aura of inner strength made Qingzhu's eyes narrow, and a trace of cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
He recognized who these three people were. They were the peak combat powers of Luoye City, Ji Shenfu, Qin Kai, and Ji Rentu!
Qingzhu never expected that Ji Shenfu would be so desperate in this action! Not only did he go into battle in person, but he also brought the commanders of the six major guards with him.
At this time, he clearly understood why the governor only brought a hundred black knights, just to let the informants of the surrounding forces downplay the attack. If there is a heavy attack on the territory, there is no guarantee that the whereabouts of the three people will be revealed. Once other forces seize the opportunity and attack from the front and back, it is unlikely that Luoye City will be breached, but there should be no suspense about the heavy losses.
"Everyone listens to the order, bring two days of dry food, and all the crossbows, especially the magic-breaking crossbows! Evacuate the camp in batches!" Qingzhu looked at the three people who had already fought with a group of strong men and guarding the iron clothes, and just breathed In that time, there were five casualties.
The northern camp is the gateway to the north of Yinren. The soldiers in the camp here are well-trained. It only takes less than ten breaths from the time the order is given to everyone to get into formation.
Although it was fast enough, the killing speed of Ji Shenfu and the others was even faster. In just ten breaths, they slaughtered all the soldiers in front of the camp gate, more than thirty people in total!
You must know that these people are not ordinary soldiers, but ordinary people of Yinren Town who have been trained and grown up. Most of them are strong men, and a small number are stronger bodyguards.
Unfortunately, it is not difficult to see from the fight just now that there is not much difference between the three men killing strong men and killing the iron armored guards.
Fortunately, since establishing diplomatic relations with Chunfeng Town, Yinren finally used various methods to purchase a batch of "Demon-Breaking Crossbows" at a high price. These complete magic-breaking crossbows were not put into use immediately. Instead, they were first modified by the blacksmith to develop an "improved version".
It is an improved version rather than a weakened version specially provided for Yinren Town. It's just that what Lin Hengshan has weakened is not the power, but the service life.
A normal Demon-Breaking Crossbow can shoot three hundred arrows. After "improvement", the lifespan of a Demon-Breaking Crossbow has been reduced to 120 arrows, but one Demon-Breaking Crossbow can be dismantled into two.
This time, I passed through Chunfeng Town and purchased three hundred Demon-Destroying Crossbows from the countries in the Western Regions for one million taels of silver! After improvements, Yinren Town now has 600 more aircraft!
Even if its service life is only a little more than one-third, it is still a terrifying armed force.
At this time, there were two hundred Demon-Destroying Crossbows guarding the northern camp.
