Chengdefang, Yuanfu.
Yang Hu, the general of Weidong, divided his troops into two formations, one with five hundred men in the south and the other in the north. He personally led one group of troops to block the south side and cut off the Yuanfu people's escape to the south. The other group of troops came from the heart and belly to Yu Lian. The commander formed an array on the north side of Yuan Mansion, with both sides forming a pincer attack.
General Luo Gan used archers and crossbowmen to occupy the walls of high-rise buildings on both sides, and even lined up soldiers to guard the long street. He was assisted by Yuanfu guards. Although there were few people, there were no flaws.
During the confrontation between the two armies, no one took action recklessly. They just shouted at each other and stalled for time.
General Luo Gan said that Young Master Jiu was a cruel and immoral person who killed his father and younger brother. General Yang Hu of Wei Dong said that Luo Gan rebelled against the moral principles for his own selfish interests and had a disobedient heart.
Anyway, it's all nonsense and delaying time.
Luo Gan was waiting for his comrades to break away from the restraint and rush to meet him - it would be best if the golden crown knight could capture the young master and kill him, but the general did not dare to put too much hope.
General Yang Hu of Wei Dong was waiting for Young Master Jiu to bring his men.
As for the golden crown knight who rode alone to the direction of Tianjie and intercepted Young Master Jiu, Yang Hu was not worried.
If it was the kind of elusive assassin, maybe he would be a little worried.
But this kind of warrior who rides a horse and holds a halberd, going straight forward, can only threaten Gongzi Jiu unless he can kill the Jinwu Guards formation head-on.
But there are certain things that a general should pay attention to when charging into formations. Not all formations can be charged into.
For example, in an array where morale is low and the soldiers are thin, the general rushes in and kills them all with a swing of his weapon. Then the morale collapses and everyone runs for their lives. They naturally kill through the array to show their bravery.
But if it is a military formation with strong soldiers, complete armor, and high morale, the general rushes in, swings his weapon, and is blocked by others, and then swarms from all directions, even if the general's armor is strong and can block all sides Even if they have weapons, they have to be dragged off their horses and beaten to death by soldiers - in this situation, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, it is useless.
Not to mention anything else, the average person in the Jinwu Guard is a warrior of grade 9 or above, and all the captains of the team are at least warriors of grade 8 or above. These people are all wearing good armor and want to fight their way through this kind of military formation. Easier said than done?
What's more, there are many fourth- and fifth-grade military experts in the Jinwu Guard, and Shi Lie, who is known as the most powerful man in the Wu Kingdom, is in danger. No matter how you look at it, the golden crown knight is in danger - and this does not include the people enshrined by the royal court. An innate master.
General Yang Hu of Wei Dong was full of confidence, but General Luo Gan was unsure.
After exchanging words with Yang Hu, General Luo Gan asked Lin Zhong next to him in a low voice: "Nephew Lin Chongxian, what kind of cultivation level does your fifth brother have? Can he disrupt the Jinwu Guard's formation?"
He didn't expect Lu Wu to kill Young Master Jiu, as long as he could create some chaos and slow down the Jinwu guards, allowing his fellow soldiers to break free and come to the rescue first.
Without external reinforcements, with these five hundred troops, even if they could get out of Chengdefang, they would not be able to get out of Songjing City.
"Well, my fifth brother—" Lin Zhong hesitated, but sweat broke out on his forehead.
God knows what kind of cultivation the fifth brother is - just hearing that the fifth brother came all the way from outside the city has already shattered Lin Zhong's impression of Lu Wu. The general asked him what kind of cultivation Lu Wu was. Why, who should he ask?
As soon as Luo Gan saw the sweat on Lin Zhong's forehead, he knew that this man was not optimistic about the fifth brother.
He sighed deeply and waved his hand, ordering the soldiers to line up and march southward - now was the time to fight, otherwise when Young Master Jiu came with two battalions of Jinwu Guards, he would have no chance no matter how hard he tried.
Luo Gan had just given an order here, and the military formation blocking the intersection on the north side suddenly fell into chaos.
I saw a man and a horse riding through the waves splitting, broken limbs and broken armor flying everywhere, and screams. In the blink of an eye, they broke through the army formation and came to the General Luo Gan.
The guards around him were about to step forward to protect Luo Gan, but the man picked off a human head from the edge of the saddle, threw it over, and said, "Here, this is the master's attempt to decapitate him."
Everyone was in an uproar.
Luo Gan was also shocked. He quickly caught the head and took a closer look - it turned out to be Mr. Jiu!
Luo Gan was overjoyed.
"Okay, I've brought Young Master Jiu's head as well. Brother-in-law, let's go. Don't let Third Sister worry." Lu Wu looked tired, and the black god on his crotch walked towards Lin Zhong, reaching out to lift him onto the horse. Come.
Lin Zhong waved his hands repeatedly.
Originally, everyone had been prepared to escape from Songjing with a narrow escape, but now the situation suddenly changed. It was the time to make a great contribution to the dragon. Wouldn't it be stupid to leave at this time?
"Fifth brother, you must have been seriously injured after fighting so hard. How can you still fight out of the city overnight? If something happens, how can I see Uncle Lu and your third sister? Don't hold on, hurry up and go to the mansion. Recuperate and rest! General, please arrange for a doctor to examine my fifth brother carefully."
Of course Lin Zhong would not directly tell Fifth Brother that you are so stupid. After a hard night's battle, you have completed more than 90% of Conglong's great work, but you gave the credit to others in the last step - how could you do such a thing.
He just emphasized that Lu Wu was injured in a hard battle and now needed to rest and heal his injuries and not to fight continuously - this was not meant primarily for Lu Wu to hear, but for the general Luo Gan next to him.
Of course, everyone can see what Lu Wu looks like now.
The heavy black iron armor was smashed to pieces, with nearly half of it missing. Even the clothes inside were somewhat torn, with some flesh exposed - the skin was green and black, obviously from a heavy blow, and there was still bruises inside.
There are seven or eight handprints of different sizes on the remaining black iron heavy armor. Each handprint is powerful enough to penetrate the heavy armor, and the palm prints are as clear as if they were carved on it - I don't know what kind of person he fought against. ;
The golden crown on the top of the head was broken into pieces, and only the middle half of the hairpin was worn on the broken corner of the golden crown, barely holding the hair in place, which shows how dangerous it was at that time;
As for the halberd in the palm, the duck-egg-thick bronze halberd shaft was a little twisted, as if it had been twisted in opposite directions by two Hercules, each holding one end.
The sharp blade and crescent blade at the top of the halberd are not made of bronze, but made of black iron.
Black iron is an excellent material for casting magical weapons. Its hardness and weight are far higher than ordinary metals - of course, the difficulty of casting is also far higher than ordinary metals.
The magic weapon made of black iron is almost indestructible.
But even this dark iron edge was blunted, and it looked similar to a fire stick.
The crescent blade is even more twisted, which means it barely maintains the crescent image, otherwise some people would believe it is a sickle.
So Lin Zhong said that he was injured in a hard battle and needed medical examination, treatment and rest. No one believed it.
"Yes, yes, come here, take General Lu down to rest, find the best doctor and the best medicine in the house, and treat General Lu's injuries! General Lu, just have a good rest." Luo Gan quickly ordered.
Although Lu Wu does not have a military position, a fighting general is also a general, and he is a general recognized by all military strategists without being appointed.
Now that a battalion on the north side has been defeated by Lu Wu, it will not be able to regroup for a while. It can be wiped out by just sending a hundred or so people into formation.
As for the battalion led by General Wei Dong personally on the south side - there is a young man trying to kill their heads here. As long as their morale is disrupted, they will win without a doubt.
