After feeding the exiled criminals, she was forced to reveal herself

Chapter 571 Thunder Roars
After the two teams joined together, they turned around and went down the mountain to rescue the isolated and helpless Xiong Jiushan.

Before Han Qiguang came to see Xie Yuchuan, he sent troops towards Xiong Jiushan. As soon as they arrived, they saw corpses and a messy battle scene along the way.

Hundreds of people did not dare to delay and rushed forward on horseback with swords in hand, "picking up" some fish that had escaped the net from behind and cleaning them up one by one on the way.

They were not the kind of people brought by Feng Chen, the magistrate of Yucheng, who were there to guard the house and had no determination to suppress the bandits.

They are the most disciplined and determined men in the team assembled by Han Qiguang and Xie Yuchuan.

Before the master left, he did not ask his men to show mercy. They held big swords in their hands, and with a few swings of the sword, the bandit leaders fell under the galloping horses' hooves.

Blood splattered everywhere, and the headless corpse's soul fell into the underworld.

Sand and soil rolled under the horse's hooves.

The closer they got, the louder the shouts and screams from the front. The last person in the team heard the command from the front, loosened the reins, and urgently sounded the flare in his hand.

Thunder roars up to the sky -

"rush!"

Hundreds of robbers rushed to encircle and suppress Xiong Jiushan and other exiled people. After several rounds of probing and retreating, they found that although the weapons in the hands of these one hundred people were strange and strong, their fighting ability was not good. In addition, after several probing, they did not see any support from them.

The bandit leader became bolder and the two sides engaged in close combat several times, but he managed to escape thanks to the opponent's unexpected defense. After several attempts, he found that they were just some trivial tricks.

In terms of numbers, they have an absolutely overwhelming advantage. If they cannot defeat this group of people despite this huge gap, wouldn’t it tarnish their reputation as the number one in Qinglong Mountain?

With a few long whistles, the brothers from all directions united and tried to catch the hundred people and the full baggage carts behind them from all directions.

After Xie Yuchuan led the team away, Xiong Jiushan followed the original plan discussed by the others and carried out mobile defense with the existing sufficient protective weapons.

Conquer the terrain that is suitable for defense, send people to guard all the key points tightly, and use all methods of defending against the enemy at all costs.

Taking advantage of the mountainous terrain, they delayed the risk of being hijacked and wiped out, and waited for the right opportunity to counterattack.

The defensive weapon left by the Xie family gods is simple, but combined with the orderly organization of offense and defense, it has enormous destructive power.

Xiong Jiushan had never been on a real battlefield, and although he didn't know how to deploy troops, with his abilities, it was more than enough for him to let go of his hands and feet in a small confrontation of thousands of people.

After the enemy approached several times to test and shouted arrogantly but were forced to retreat, not only had the Qinglongzhai bandits begun to adapt to their style of play, they had even figured out the rules of the exile team's defense and had begun to charge at all costs.

This is also the situation that Xiong Jiushan is most worried about.

Even though several smoke signals for communication and warning could be seen rising all around.

But he didn't see General Xie and his team's support arrive for a moment, and his spirit was always tense.

Whoosh whoosh—

In the distance, three signals pierced the sky.

When Xiong Jiushan saw the signal coming from the direction of Yucheng, he couldn't help but stand up.

"It's done with Lord Feng too!" His eyes lit up with joy and he suddenly turned his head to look behind him.

After waiting for a short while, I saw a distant response rising from the depths of the mountains.

Xiong Jiushan happily turned around and strode over to shout to the yamen runners and convicts behind him whose nerves were so tense that they were about to collapse at any time.

The leaders of all parties gathered around him and asked anxiously: "Master Xiong, have the reinforcements arrived?"

Whether it is the caravan or the people from the Chai family... no matter what kind of relationship they had with each other before.

But at this moment, when everyone faces a common enemy, all other thoughts are thrown aside, and only one thing is most important at the moment.

"Master Xiong, the things we have can only last two more times at most. If the robbers gather more and more, we may not be able to hold on with such a small number of people."

"Yes, if the reinforcements don't arrive, we will have no way to retreat. That side is a dead end. I think these bandits are not all uneducated. If they keep attacking us like this a few more times, our advantage will be gone. Lord Xiong, if the reinforcements still don't arrive, why don't we take a break and escape to catch our breath first?" Someone suggested.

"Not appropriate." Someone nearby disagreed. "This position is easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, we have the magic weapon given by the gods, so we can defeat the enemy with fewer troops and hold out for a while. This group of bandits, in order to wipe us out this time, has gathered troops from all over the mountain, and they are coming here continuously. We have no advantage in numbers, not to mention that most of the people behind us have never seen blood with their own hands. Whether it is numbers or momentum, if we throw away the advantage of terrain and fight against the strong with the weak, the final result may not be that we can tear open a hole and escape, but we may be surrounded by them and caught in one fell swoop. It will be too late to regret then. Not appropriate, not appropriate."

"This is not right, and that is not right. Is it that we can only continue to resist and wait? What are we waiting for?"

"Yes." Someone was also worried. "General Xie didn't bring many troops with him. Even if they turned around and came back, I'm afraid the reinforcements would be a drop in the bucket."

"Stop arguing and listen to Master Xiong. Master Xiong has already said that reinforcements have arrived. We should be patient and hold on for a while. Maybe the situation will be different."

"Yes, yes."

At this moment, the words "reinforcements have arrived" can cheer people up more than any other words.

However, before the reinforcements arrived at the signal, everyone was attacked again by the robbers!

But this time, Xiong Jiushan discovered that the opponent's tactics had changed again!

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he felt that the number of robbers attacking from below suddenly increased, as if there were suddenly many more people and horses on the opposite side. Before rushing up, countless rockets flew down from overhead.

"Oh no! They set fire, everyone be careful!"

With a loud shout, Xiong Jiushan hurriedly ordered his men to retreat to the rear before he saw the arrival of reinforcements.

The two sides suddenly engaged in a battle, and Xiong Jiushan ordered the battle to be fought with full weapons and equipment!

Both sides suddenly increased their offensive and defensive efforts, and the battle situation became tense.

Both sides suffered casualties, and the dangerous low points held by the exiles were soon broken through by the enemy's superior forces. If Xiong Jiushan had not given the order in advance to concentrate all the defensive forces on the defense points, the result would probably have been even worse.

Just as Xiong Jiushan and his men were retreating step by step, a cloud of smoke suddenly rose into the sky not far behind the enemy, followed by several flying arrows that fell into the robbers' camp.

Suddenly, a huge area collapsed in front of me.

Xiong Jiushan's eyes lit up, and he suddenly heard the crowd behind him cheering: "Reinforcements are here! Reinforcements are here!"
