After the Tibetan army was attacked from behind, Ma Xiangzhong Bajie saw that the rear group was in chaos. He was not afraid that the two thousand people would be killed and dispersed, but he was afraid that Master Gu Xin, An Qingxu, Jiang Shuo and others would escape.
It goes without saying that the An brothers cannot be let go because of the covenant with Mrs. Duan. Master Gu Xin is quite popular in Xiangxiong. If he fails to kill him this time, it will be a big deal if he runs back to Xiangxiong. Too bad.
Therefore, he ordered the remaining gun and shield infantry to attack the island desperately. At this moment, Master Gu Xin and Jiang Shuo were healing An Qingzong and could not move their positions under any circumstances. Yin Ziqi led the Xuanji Formation to greet them.
Fortunately, there is only a short section of water between the cape and the island connected by a hidden beam, so you can swim across it. The island is surrounded by deep water. Firstly, the Tubo people are not good at swimming, and secondly, although they wear Jizijia, they are much lighter than Zhajia. , but after all, it weighed dozens of kilograms more, and it was even more difficult to float in the water, so we could only attack from a narrow headland.
The Xuanji Formation was really impressive. Under the central control of Yin Ziqi, he took advantage of the narrow terrain at the tip of the island to block hundreds of infantry. Of course, the main reason was that the infantry could not land and spread out, so they could only squeeze in the water. Every time There were only twenty or thirty people fighting.
Dugu Xiang and Tuoba Qimei, firstly, did not understand the Xuanji Formation, and secondly, they were worried about Jiang Shuo's safety, so they stayed at the edge of the boulder and did not follow Yin Ziqi forward.
The Tubo horse archers had clearly seen that what was entering the formation was a group of armored cavalry holding a ring-headed sword. Fortunately, the cavalry were already very sparse in formation. After the opponent's cavalry stabbed them like a cone, they were not able to fight as a whole team. They were divided into small teams and dispersed, escaping while shooting at each other on horseback. The two sides chased each other on the grassland, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.
Ma Xiangzhong Bajie saw that Yin Ziqi was firmly stuck at the pass to the island and could not land on the island for a while, and the shouts of killing were approaching from behind, so he immediately ordered the cavalry to fire volleys at the island desperately.
This horse archer is indeed the elite of the Tibetan army. Even when they were attacked, they were still able to obey the general's orders. When they heard Ma Xiangzhong Bajie's shout, they immediately drew their bows and arrows on their horses and fired three volleys at the island from their respective directions. .
This sudden attack of cold arrows was indeed unexpected. Although Dugu Xiang and Tuoba Qimei were calling with all their strength, there were only two of them. How could they protect Jiang Shuo and the other three? And Jiang Shuo was working hard, even Dugu Xiang’s shouts He didn't even hear the warning, and then he was shot in the head by an arrow that slipped through the net.
Fortunately, he listened to Dugu Xiang's words and did not take off his armor. He also wore the Tibetan army's pointed iron helmet on his head. The arrow hit the helmet but did not penetrate. Otherwise, even if he had extraordinary skills, this arrow would have been defeated today. Killed him.
Then Jiang Shuo saw that Master Gu Xin and An Qingzong had also been hit by arrows. Jizijia was the nemesis of bows and arrows. The arrows either bounced away or were inserted into the armor but could not penetrate the body. Dugu Xiang He and Tuoba Qimei only need to hit the arrows that hit their heads and faces.
Master Gu Xin said: "Concentrate and don't be distracted." This sudden rain of arrows seemed to have no effect on him. Jiang Shuo couldn't help but admire him, and quickly calmed down and continued to work hard.
Fortunately, the Tubo archers only fired three rounds of arrows and then stopped firing. They had consumed too many arrows before, and now they were being chased by this mysterious cavalry. They were unable to attack the people on the island again.
Yin Ziqi's Xuanji Formation has now become dangerous again. Although the Xuanji Formation is wonderful, its manpower will eventually come to an end. Even though Yin Ziqi has abundant internal strength and feels tired, the other Yan army warriors in the formation have sore arms and can't swing their swords. .
At this moment, the beach near the island was full of corpses. The corpses hindered the rotation of the Xuanji formation. Yin Ziqi could only command the entire formation to retreat. The space left on the shore became larger and larger. The Tubo warriors stepped on the corpses of their colleagues and kept pouring in. Coming to the island, although the number of samurai landing on the island increased, the pressure on the Xuanji Formation also increased.
An Qingxu couldn't help shouting: "Jiang Suzhi, how is my brother? We can't stand it anymore!" In fact, even if the chaotic meridians in An Qingzong's body can be straightened out, his heart will still be damaged. , it was impossible to get up and take action for a while. If he didn't go to the cape, jumping into the West Sea would be a dead end, but An Qingxu couldn't care about so much at the moment.
Jiang Shuo and Master Gu Xin were already in trance. They turned a blind eye and turned a deaf ear to things outside their bodies. How could they answer An Qingxu's questions?
Jiang Shuo followed the method taught by Master Gu Xin and slowly injected his internal energy into Anqingzong's body. As the internal energy continued to be injected, Anqingzong's body seemed to become transparent to him.
Jiang Shuo closed his eyes and meditated, as if he could see the essence, blood and energy surging in Anqingzong's body, from chaos to order, from weakness to strength. Mr. Zhang Guo taught him the art of Guanqi, which allows him to sense the location of the enemy. And the strength of each person's breath, and Master Gu Xin taught him the technique of distinguishing Qi walking through the meridian, which is called
"Internal illumination" means that the candle illuminates the internal organs. Jiang Shuo has a deeper understanding of the operation of Qi. Although the meridians are now open, it is still very difficult and slow to use internal force to repair his damaged heart meridians. The internal force that penetrates into the internal organs through the meridians is different from the circulating meridians, so more goes in and less comes out.
Moreover, because An Qingxu didn't know martial arts, he had to force out all the internal energy accumulated in his body from Gu Xin, Jiang Shuo, Yin Ziqi and others. Otherwise, he would be worse off than dead if there were multiple strands of internal energy in his body colliding with each other.
Dugu Xiang stood beside Jiang Shuo and saw that the Xuanji Formation was in a state of defeat. Several Fan Yang warriors were already wounded. The Tubo people stabbed them with long spears. Although the wounds were not big, they were extremely fatal. The wounds on their hands and feet only caused difficulty in movement. If If you were hit, you would be seriously injured even if you didn't die.
Dugu Xiang wanted to go up and help, but he was afraid that the archers would suddenly rain down arrows, and Master Jiang Shuo and Gu Xin could not take action to release the arrows.
Jiang Shuo couldn't help but said anxiously: "Brother Shuo, what can we do? Unless the seagulls help, we will have no help." Jiang Shuo also knew that the situation was very critical at this moment, but he also knew that this was the most critical time to use energy to heal injuries. No matter what, he couldn't let go, let alone go to help. He suddenly heard Dugu Xiang mention seagulls...like a flash of lightning flashed through his mind, he immediately had an idea.
At this moment, his internal energy is connected with Master Gu Xin, and he relies on water milling skills to heal Anqingzong's injuries. However, he has a lot of internal energy, and he needs additional exercises to suppress the surging energy in his body.
Jiang Shuo made up his mind, opened his mouth to look into the sky, and screamed! Dugu Xiang was startled, covered his ears and said: "Brother Shuo, what are you doing?" Tuoba Qimei couldn't bear the demonic sound filling his ears, squatting on the ground in agony, but Master Gu Xin was completely unmoved. , still concentrating on doing exercises.
Jiang Shuo did not answer Dugu Xiang, but kept changing his tone, making intermittent whistling sounds. The whistling sound went from high to low, from low to high, from short to long, and from long to short, like a string that was constantly sliding.
At this moment, let alone Duguxiang, everyone on Dandao Island and even on the entire battlefield beside the West Sea could hear this whistle. Although the Tubo people didn't know what Jiang Shuo was doing, Jiang Shuo's whistle resonated with extremely deep internal power. The push was definitely not a tone that ordinary people could make. The Tubo people had always believed in ghosts and gods, so they couldn't help but be a little scared, and their attack on the Xuanji Formation also eased a little.
When the Xuanji Formation led by Yin Ziqi saw timidity on the faces of the Tibetan people, they were shocked. They tightened their grip and actually pushed the Tibetan people back a little towards the seaside. However, Jiang Shuo's roar could not eliminate their fatigue. We can't let the Tubo people suffer a little damage. After the Tubo people slowly get used to it, they can press on again.
The Xuanji Formation can only keep retreating. The island is in the shape of an inverted wedge, and the western end of the island is the narrowest. The farther you go into the island, the wider the terrain becomes. The Tubo people continue to pour onto the island, and the Xuanji Formation can no longer cover the edge of the island. , the Tubo warriors outflanked the Xuanji formation from the left and right wings.
As a result, not only Yin Ziqi, An Qingxu and others were trapped in a tight siege, but many Tubo spear and shield warriors rushed straight towards Baishi.
When Dugu Xiang and Tuoba Qimei saw this, they no longer hesitated. They each waved their weapons to greet them. At this moment, Jiang Shuo and Master Gu Xin could neither move nor free their hands. No matter how high their martial arts skills were, they were nothing more than meat on their backs. Dugu Xiang Tuoba Qimei and Tuoba Qimei could only try their best to resist, and they could not let a single warrior break through their last line of defense.
Jiang Shuo was still changing his tone and whistling continuously. Dugu Xiang said anxiously: "Brother Shuo, your trick doesn't work. The Tubo people won't be fooled. Can you think of something useful?" At this moment, Jiang Shuo's whistling sound suddenly started. In response, the sound of birdsong came from the air. The sound of the birdsong was very similar to a certain section of Jiang Shuo's whistle. Although it was not as full of internal energy as Jiang Shuo, it was better than the large number. There seemed to be thousands of them. Thousands of birds chirped in unison in the sky, rivaling Jiang Shuo's roar.
It turns out that Jiang Shuo was using his whistle to attract birds! He once learned the language of birds and beasts from Dongyanzi Zhao Rui. Zhao Rui could call all the birds in the forest to come to court. The first thing Jiang Shuo learned from him was the art of calling birds, but he had never heard the cry of the seagull. , I could only keep trying, and finally got a response from the birds.
The language of birds is much simpler than human speech. Birdsong is natural. The difference between the calls of birds in the Tang Dynasty and the seagulls of Niboluo is definitely not the same as the difference between the languages of the Tang Dynasty and Niboluo people. Once Jiang Shuo truly understands When I heard the birdsong, I immediately understood the meaning of these gulls’ calls.
His inner strength is so profound that his voice can rival that of a flock of birds. To the birds, he sounds like a divine bird descending from the sky.
Bird eggs are so densely packed on Egg Island. There were so many Nibala seagulls on the island that they almost occupied the island. Firstly, Yin Ziqi and others frightened away some of the birds after they landed on the island. Secondly, the Tibetan long archers were very powerful. After firing a volley into the sky, all the birds on the island were frightened and fled away. After that, the seagulls dispersed to other places in the West Sea. When Jiang Shuo and the others landed on the island, not a single bird was missing.
At this moment, Jiang Shuo called back the seagulls, and the gray-white gulls gathered together and circled around the island. The night sky was like a huge, gray-white cloud covering the entire Egg Island, making the island dark and almost impossible to see.
Dugu Xiang was about to ask Jiang Shuo what's the point of doing this, when he suddenly heard Jiang Shuo's shrill screams several times. The gulls changed their posture in the air, and shot down like arrows, rushing towards the crowd on the island!
