Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 571 The fallen star
Feng Ziying, Chen Yejun and his son and other nobles followed Niu Jizong and rushed into the Longzong Gate. They were shocked to see that the Qianqing Gate had been lost.

Immediately, he heard the shouting of killing coming from inside the door. He felt relieved and rushed forward with all his strength to meet the hundreds of soldiers and rebels led by Cao Jin.

Especially Feng Ziying, whose father was a powerful general and guarded the palace. Now he encountered a rebel rebellion and his life and death were unknown. He was even more anxious. He drank loudly, stabbed with his gun, and rushed to kill him.

On the other side dozens of feet away, at the Jingyun Gate, Liu Fang rushed in with Han Yi, Han Qi and his son, Wei Yi, Wei Ruolan and his son, and fought with the rebels. They happened to be captured by Cao Xiong and his men. block.

Niu and Liu had a tacit understanding and worked hard to attack from the east and west sides to the middle. As long as they successfully joined forces and controlled the open space between Qianqing Gate and Baohe Hall, they could cut off the rebels in the middle and prevent them from seeing each other.

In this way, the pressure on both the Qianqing Palace and Jia Cong can be greatly reduced.

However, the soldiers and rebels led by Cao Jin and his son were very elite and numerous, and a stalemate broke out for a while.

The two sides seemed to be competing to see who could rush into the Qianqing Palace first.

"Death to the traitors!" Wei Ruolan and Han Qi knew Cao Xiong and how brave he was, so they rushed forward with their horses and attacked from both sides.

Cao Xiong laughed and said, "Well done! If you come together, why should I be afraid?" He lightly clamped the horse's belly to meet him, and with a swing of his big gun, he actually caught the two of them together.

The three of them used their own methods and fought together like a revolving door. The soldiers around them hurriedly got out of the way and fought on their own.

However, after several rounds, Cao Xiong gained the upper hand with one against two. With one stroke, he was able to pin down Han Qi and Wei Ruolan with fierce and dangerous moves.

If it weren't for the support of someone beside him, he repeatedly surrounded Wei and rescued Zhao at critical moments, which made Cao Xiong a little worried. If they had fought alone, Han and Wei would have been defeated long ago.

When Cao Xiong saw Wei Ruolan's eagerness to achieve great results and his impatience with the gun, which was more than ruthless but not calm enough, his heart moved and he suddenly showed his weakness. With one move of his arms, he opened the barrel of Han Qi's gun and exposed the empty door under his left rib.

good chance! Wei Ruolan was overjoyed, and with a flick of the gun tip, it pierced Cao Xiong's waist like a poisonous snake spitting out a message.

"Be careful!" Han Qi exclaimed, knowing that it was impossible for his opponent's martial arts to make such a low-level mistake.

Sure enough, Cao Xiong smiled sinisterly and twisted his arms. The tail of his gun drew a semicircle in the air, forcing Han Qi to retreat. Before Wei Ruolan's gun point was about to reach his body, he knocked him away with a snap. Then he raised his arm and the tip of the gun slashed. A sharp light shot out, slanting from bottom to top.

At this time, Jia Cong had already reached Danqi of the Baohe Hall. Mo Dao soldiers were circulating like wheels, advancing layer by layer, splashing blood like a spring, and smelling like the wind.

The rebels who were blocking the rows had no resistance. They could only watch their comrades and themselves being cut down like ripe wheat. Many of them had already been frightened by the cruel and cold killing methods of the Mo Dao soldiers and were trembling. He couldn't even hold a weapon firmly.

It's not like fighting or mowing grass is so easy.

Jia Cong was anxious and shouted: "Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"

"Whoever surrenders will be spared death!" More than two thousand people shouted in unison.

Boom! The Mo knife soldiers all slammed their long knives to the ground, like war drums, hitting the rebels' fragile defenses hard.

"I surrender!" A rebel hesitated for a moment and slowly put down his gun. At this moment, it was more important to save his life. Anyway, who became the emperor had nothing to do with a soldier like him?
The rebels felt relieved. With the first surrender, the people behind them had no psychological barriers. Like a flood bursting from a dike, countless weapons fell to the ground with a crash.

"We are willing to surrender!" Thousands of people shouted in unison.

Luancheng Hou Buchen, the commander of the Brave Battalion who was supervising the battle at the back, was shocked and angry when he saw thousands of people under his command surrendering. He shouted: "You are greedy for life and afraid of death. You should be executed on trial! Who dares to surrender?! Kill me!"

At that moment, dozens of soldiers stepped forward with their swords drawn, and chopped down many people in an instant. The sergeants fled in a hurry, and did not dare to rush to the front of the Modao formation, so they had to flee left and right, like lifting a curtain, killing the fortune tellers in the rear formation. Chen and hundreds of his soldiers were exposed in front of Mo Dao Formation.

Jia Cong shouted: "Those who surrender disperse and wait for His Majesty's instructions. Those who leave without permission will die!"

"I obey your orders." Thousands of surrendered soldiers, whose aspirations had been taken away, trembled and huddled on the left and right sides.

"Fire the arrow! Kill me!" Jia Cong pointed the tip of his spear, and the soldiers stepped onto the steps in front of the Baohe Hall like a steel forest.

"Come in, come in, come in!"

Seeing the rows of Mo Dao soldiers stepping up neatly, leaving blood-red footprints on the ground, Bu Chen's soldiers began to tremble unconsciously. Although their treatment is much better than that of the Beijing army, they have lived with Bu Chen for ten or twenty years in peace, and their bloody courage and vigor have long been worn away, and their combat effectiveness is not much better than that of the Beijing army.

"Brothers, hold on! I'll go find the Governor to call for reinforcements!" Bu Chen saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly retreated.

As soon as he retreated, all the soldiers lost their backbone. They were unable to withstand the enemy with more enemies. Now they want to deal with the iron monster in front of them with a small number of enemies. Isn't this nonsense?
"Master Marquis, I will protect you!" Several bright-minded soldiers shouted and followed Bu Chen.

"It's important to protect the Marquis!" All the soldiers followed suit and chased after him with a shout.

Jia Cong sneered and led people to rush through the Baohe Palace. At the steps behind the palace, several people were crowded and fighting fiercely!

Niu Jizong and Liu Fang were blocked in front of Longzong Gate and Jingyun Gate respectively, unable to advance even an inch.

In front of Jingyun Gate, three generals fighting together caught Jia Cong's attention.

"Ruolan, be careful!"

Jia Cong saw that the situation was not good and shouted loudly.

But it was too late, Cao Xiong's gun was so powerful that even Han Qi, who was close at hand, couldn't rescue him.

But seeing the burst of blood, Wei Ruolan screamed and was thrown away, falling to the ground motionless.

"Ruolan!" Han Qi's eyes were about to burst, blood filled his pupils, and he tried his best to avenge his brother.

Cao Xiong sneered, if I can win by working hard, why do I need to practice martial arts? I thought that Han Qi could be killed in three or five moves.

When Jia Cong saw Wei Ruolan's fall, he was still shocked and shouted: "The soldiers will clear the way! Lei Tai will support Long Zongmen, Kongxing will support Jingyun Clan, and the rest of them will follow me to save him!"

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison and split up.

Now, the entire path from Baohe Hall to Qianqing Gate was occupied by densely packed rebels. They were crowded with people, and they were not afraid of killing the wrong person. The Mo Dao soldiers formed a formation, like an indestructible chariot, and began to crush them mercilessly.

"Master Marquis, they are moving too slowly. I will go out and charge for a while. There are so many people crowded together. It would be a pity not to beat them." Zhang Yuanba pleaded.

"Go quickly!" Jia Cong nodded.

"Okay! Just treat me!" Zhang Yuanba was overjoyed. He spat into his palms, rubbed them, and shouted, "Let me do it!"

Wow! Mo Dao's army moved to both sides to make way for a path. Zhang Yuanba rushed out with a hammer and rushed straight into the dense enemy formation. His hammers danced wildly, causing the river to overturn. The red and white things he hit were splashed everywhere, and his bones were broken and he howled miserably. The voices come and go.

Seeing that he was advancing alone, all the rebels wanted to surround Zhang Yuanba and kill him first. Unexpectedly, the Mo Dao soldiers who came up from behind were even more terrifying.

No matter how powerful Zhang Yuanba is, he kills people one by one, but the Mo Dao army kills people one by one. Especially within such a square palace wall, there is no way out except for confrontation, but there are hundreds of long swords. The knife swung down, click!

As soon as the front of the formation was empty, there was a slight silence in the field, and then a louder roar broke out, "Kill!"

Mo Dao soldiers stepped on the flesh and blood stumps on the ground and advanced without hesitation, raising the long sword again.

The rebels felt a chill in their hearts. They held the spears and steel knives in their hands and hesitated to move forward.

If you stab someone or chop someone with a knife, others will be fine. If someone in turn kills you with a knife, who would dare to do it?
Bu Chen, who had fled outside the Qianqing Gate, had already had "experience" and turned around and shouted: "Brothers, hold on, the Governor has entered the Qianqing Palace, and the rebels have been defeated!"

"Brothers, stand shoulder to shoulder!" Seeing that they had no way to retreat and had nowhere to hide, the rebels barely mustered up the courage to shout in unison and charged forward again.

Wow! The light of the sword passed by, and the group of people who rushed forward all fell shoulder to shoulder.
