Shengui Changsheng: Start adding points from Zhenwuwei
Chapter 101 Offensive and defensive battle!
Chapter 101 Offensive and defensive battle!
Over the next few days, the situation outside the town became increasingly tense.
A large number of bandits and cultists have gathered, and a war may break out at any time.
Ordinary people in the entire town were in a panic.
The city guards and some warriors patrolled the city walls day and night to prevent sudden attacks from the enemy.
At the same time, support from the county government also rushed to many small towns.
This day, early morning.
In a courtyard.
Lu Changsheng sat upright on a stone chair, picked up the wine gourd in his hand and drank it, looking quite free and easy.
A feeling of coolness surged from the abdomen, and even one's own energy and blood were strengthened a little.
These spiritual wines are brewed from spiritual creatures in the mountains. Drinking them for a long time will bring great benefits.
He felt that his own aptitude was even slowly improving.
In the past few days, in addition to practicing swordsmanship every day, he went out of the city to search for the traces of the cultists.
After a long period of secret investigation, he guessed that the war might take place in the next two days.
The cultists also obtained a lot of bows and arrows and spears, and it was obvious that they had been prepared for a long time.
However, since he sensed the presence of a strong man in the other party's force, he did not dare to get too close.
Just as Lu Changsheng was thinking, footsteps were heard outside the yard.
"Lord Lu is quite cool and carefree. Even with the war approaching, he still has the leisure to drink some wine..."
Not far away, a clear and pleasant voice was heard.
Lu Changsheng turned his head and saw Yue Shulan and a group of people walking slowly towards him.
They were some of Lu Changsheng’s former teammates, Yue Shulan, Lu Xue and Xiao Chao.
Lu Xue, this beautiful girl from a small family, has always been quite shy. She and Xiao Chao's honest image left some impression on Lu Changsheng.
I didn’t expect these people to come to support the town.
"We are here to see Lord Lu."
Xiao Chao approached and clasped his fists with a respectful look on his face.
For Lu Changsheng, a legendary warrior among the common people, this is the object of his lifelong pursuit. There are not many people in the entire history of Changping County who can rise all the way from an ordinary person.
Yue Shulan and Lu Xue also bowed with smiles on their faces.
A snow-white long dress also shows off her figure perfectly.
As soon as they entered the town, they immediately went to see the old captain Lu Changsheng.
Lu Changsheng also became the biggest supporter of several people in the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Ever since Lu Changsheng made some adjustments last time and transferred some threatening tasks, the few of them have been safe after going through many missions.
Not only that, the strength of several people is also steadily improving, which makes them all grateful to Lu Changsheng.
"No need to be polite, just sit down and talk."
Lu Changsheng waved his hand and smiled faintly.
Without further ado, they sat down around the stone table.
"Master Lu, this action is quite strange. We still need your guidance."
Xiao Chao, an honest man, could not hide his thoughts and could not help but speak immediately.
As he spoke, his brows were furrowed and his face was full of worry.
This kind of mission is already the most dangerous mission they have ever taken.
A large number of warriors from the Demon Suppression Bureau and the county government went to many small towns outside the county to provide support.
But there is one biggest problem: no one knows which town the cultists are going to attack.
The other party may also make a feint to the east and attack in the west to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
This kind of action is also very likely to happen.
The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, and no one has any idea what to expect.
Even some ordinary people know that it is impossible to guard against thieves for a thousand days without being a thief.
Lu Xue and Yue Shulan also looked at Lu Changsheng with anticipation.
They didn't have any backing in the Demon Suppression Bureau, and Lu Changsheng was almost the most important person they had ever met.
At this moment, everyone hoped that Lu Changsheng could give them some advice.
Some secret information cannot be detected by a few people, but it can greatly increase their hope of saving their lives.
Lu Changsheng didn't beat around the bush and said in a deep voice: "During the battle, if the situation changes, run away immediately, don't hesitate."
He also didn't want a few people to die here. These people had good aptitude in martial arts and would form his own team after he became the deputy hall master.
When Lu Xue and the others heard this, their pupils shrank.
This was the first time that they saw Lu Changsheng so solemn.
It seems that the situation outside the city is not optimistic.
However, no one asked about the specific situation, as some things did not need to be made too clear.
They are all old men from the Demon Suppression Bureau, so naturally they know some rules.
Some secrets are not accessible to ordinary people, and they also benefited from Lu Changsheng.
If any big mouth spreads rumors everywhere, he is seeking death.
At this time, Lu Xue on the side couldn't help but complain:
"Master Lu, why don't the county directly send a large army to Black Mountain and wipe out the nearby Wenxiang Sect in one fell swoop? Wouldn't that be a permanent solution?"
"If we just keep on defending passively, we will just be running around in vain."
Lu Changsheng smiled slightly, raised his head and took a sip of the spiritual wine.
"The county lord naturally has his own plan. Black Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and there are many passes. Several county lords before him have also attacked it, but all failed."
"Besides, that group of bandits has lasted for a hundred years. It's not that easy to wipe them out."
There were some secrets that he had heard about from Qin Ruobing.
From the brief exchanges with the other party, Lu Changsheng knew that the strength of the three leaders of the Black Mountain Bandits was probably at the reborn level.
He is a powerful being of the same level as the three deputy hall masters of the Demon Suppression Division.
As for the county magistrate, he seemed to be waiting for something.
Maybe it’s the support from Qingning Prefecture.
However, this battle will come sooner or later, and for Lu Changsheng, the later the better.
He needs time to develop.
Although the blood exchange level is not weak, it cannot determine the direction of the battle.
In the next two years, he must devote all his efforts to improving his own strength.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master Lu."
Yue Shulan and the others nodded gratefully, their eyes flickering.
Under Lu Changsheng's guidance, several people felt more confident to survive.
When the situation changes, they will surround Lu Changsheng and break out of the encirclement.
Just as a few people were talking, another beautiful figure slowly walked towards them from outside the yard.
It was this girl named Tong Yuhua.
"We are here to see Master Tong."
Xiao Chao and others quickly stood up and saluted with a respectful look on their faces.
"No need to be polite."
Tong Yuhua waved her hand, walked quickly to Lu Changsheng's side and sat down.
Then she said solemnly, "The war may only last for two days. I suspect this town is one of the enemy's targets. It doesn't seem like a feint to the east to attack in the west..."
"We'll act accordingly when the time comes."
She couldn't break into the circle of aristocratic warriors, so she could only look for her old acquaintance Lu Changsheng to join forces against the enemy.
"That's natural."
Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded.
"But there's no need to be too pessimistic. Maybe the enemy can't break through this town at all."
He whispered something to comfort everyone.
Afterwards, they exchanged some details and then got up and left.
…………
Outside Wuqiong Town, in a dense forest.
Two middle-aged men in black stood on the lawn, with murderous looks on their faces.
Among them was a man with a thin figure, hands like chicken claws, and eyes like knives. He was Duan Changhe, a helmsman-level strongman of the Wenxiang Sect.
This person has a good aura and has reached the late stage of blood transfusion.
The other man was sturdy, with lightning-like eyes, and gave off an extremely oppressive vibe.
The opponent was none other than Zhu Quan, a powerful warrior in the middle stage of blood exchange from the Black Mountain Bandits.
"Brother Duan, this town is heavily guarded. There are a large number of soldiers armed with bows and crossbows near the city wall. With the support of warriors from the county town, can we break through it?"
Zhu Quan looked confused.
Although they also had some bows and crossbows, it would be difficult to capture the town with just these.
Not to mention the several blood exchange level warriors in the town.
There is no benefit in attacking by force.
“Hehehe…Although the fortress is strong and cannot be breached from the outside, what if something goes wrong from the inside?”
Duan Changhe laughed, his eyes dim.
"You mean...?"
Zhu Quan also smiled grimly.
He understood the other party's plan in an instant. He was afraid that these people from the Wenxiang Sect had been preparing for it for many years.
As long as they don't attack by force, they still have a great chance of breaking through this town. "After we break through this place, my Black Mountain Village will want most of the property."
Zhu Quan spoke again, his tone leaving no room for doubt.
This was also what their village leader had discussed with the other party before.
"Yes, but you are not allowed to move the population in this town. Don't make things difficult for me."
Duan Changhe's tone was cold.
Zhu Quan nodded lightly.
He also knew about the practices of these Scent of Fragrance followers, who used human essence and blood to refine elixirs, and called them "Innate Elixirs", "Essence Elixirs", etc.
But he didn't refute it. Since the other party needed people, he would give them some.
Although Zhu Quan was somewhat disdainful of this.
The two chatted for a while and then left.
The scene soon returned to calm.
…………
A secret place in town.
"Father, are we really going to do this? Once we take this step, there will be no turning back."
A young man in white had a look of struggle on his face.
"Alas...when we eat that kind of thing, it's already doomed."
The old man's eyes flickered.
When the young man heard this, his body tensed up, as if he remembered something bad.
He never wanted to experience that feeling of being worse than death again.
A poison had already been planted in their minds, and they had no choice but to obey.
"Only by overthrowing this increasingly corrupt dynasty can we see a turnaround..."
The young man managed to muster a glimmer of confidence.
The old man looked at his naive son quietly, and couldn't bear to break his fantasy.
Those cultists are obviously connected to evil spirits. They just live one day at a time. There is no hope for improvement.
…………
Time passes slowly.
Two days passed in a flash.
It was noon that day.
Lu Changsheng was practicing martial arts in the yard when suddenly, he heard a shrill alarm.
"Enemy attack, everyone, come to the city gate quickly to support..."
A powerful voice resounded throughout the town. It came from the commander of the city guards.
"call out……"
A large number of warriors and soldiers rushed towards the city gate, and civilians on the street all ran into their houses, and the whole town was noisy.
Soon, the only people left on the street were some warriors running quickly.
There are also many strong people coming from the county.
A group of people were rushing down the street.
After hearing the alarm, Lu Changsheng immediately put away his butcher knife and walked out of the yard.
After leaving the yard, he hurried all the way.
Some ordinary warriors on both sides moved away, their faces full of respect.
Many people also knew Lu Changsheng, the patrol envoy, and did not dare to offend him in the slightest.
Not long after.
Lu Changsheng came to the top of the city wall on the east side of the city.
At this moment, many warriors had gathered around, including Tong Yuhua and others.
Seeing Lu Changsheng coming, several people smiled at him.
The commander Mo Wanyun was also directing a group of soldiers to carry arrows and stones.
Lu Changsheng glanced at the warriors around him.
The person with the highest cultivation level here, apart from Zhao Yicheng from the Demon Suppression Bureau, is the commander of the city guards.
Next came the two touring envoys Zhu, Hou and Yu.
Of course, Lu Changsheng’s cultivation level has not yet been exposed.
Further down were some powerful bone-forging warriors who came to provide support, and some martial arts families in the town.
Among them, the Yang family is the most famous. There are seven or eight bone-forging masters in the family, and their strength is not weak.
The leader was an old man in green clothes named Yang Guanghong. He had a ruddy complexion and had perfect bone-forging strength. He was quite popular in the town.
A group of warriors were all on high alert, staring at the many figures outside the city with serious expressions.
Among the many cultists, the two warriors in front had an aura as deep as the ocean, causing everyone in the city to tense up.
The two people were Duan Changhe and Zhu Quan, two powerful blood-exchanging masters.
Behind the two of them, there were some bone-tempering warriors and a large number of skin-tempering and flesh-tempering warriors. These people were holding bows and crossbows and spears, with murderous intent in their eyes.
"He is the leader of the Wenxiang Sect and a strong man from the Black Mountain Bandits."
Tong Yuhua, who was standing next to Lu Changsheng, looked quite nervous.
Unexpectedly, these cultists would collude with the bandits again and plan to attack Wuqiong Town together.
"These two are ranked quite high on the government's wanted list."
Lu Changsheng also recognized the two men at the first moment.
According to intelligence from the Demon Suppression Bureau, this long river has killed a large number of civilians and warriors, and its hands are stained with blood, and it is extremely cruel.
It made the official warriors hate it so much.
"kill."
Duan Changhe shouted loudly, and his cold voice echoed throughout the venue.
He knew that there was no way the government would surrender, so he didn't waste any time and went straight to war.
A large number of cult bandits rushed towards the city wall like a tide.
Many people were holding bows, crossbows and pistols.
When he arrived near the city gate, he immediately stopped, stood with his feet together, leaned back, put the arrow on, and quickly pulled the crossbow to its full strength.
"shoot."
With an order.
Countless arrows shot towards the city gate, forming giant rain of arrows in the air, which was terrifying.
"All guards, raise your shields immediately to block the rain of arrows."
"The archers are ready to strike back."
Seeing that the enemy had begun to attack the city, Mo Wanyun immediately issued an order to counterattack.
"drink……"
A large number of guards raised their hardwood shields high in the air, connecting them into a whole to block the arrows from high in the sky.
A group of archers in the back also drew their bows and shot at the cultists outside the city.
A war broke out between the two sides instantly.
The entire battlefield was filled with deafening shouts and cries of killing, and the surrounding area was filled with billowing dust and smoke, and it was a mess.
"bang bang bang..."
On the city wall, some warriors waved their weapons to resist the dense rain of arrows in front of them.
They will not take the initiative to attack until the strong men of the cult bandits come out.
Tong Yuhua and others on the side surrounded Lu Changsheng tightly and jointly resisted the attack from outside the city.
As for strong men like Lu Changsheng, it was even easier.
Some ordinary arrows can't hurt you at all.
While fending off arrows and flying spears, he looked around the entire battlefield.
I also had some doubts in my heart that the opponent's attack would be difficult to break through the town's defense team.
Even if Duan Changhe, a powerful late-stage blood exchange expert, took action, it would still not be enough.
These cultists would not be so unwise. Obviously they have some hidden tricks that have not been exposed.
This made Lu Changsheng quite alert.
The forces of both sides had been fighting at the city gate, except that some strong men had not taken any action, showing a tacit understanding.
The entire battle lasted for about several hours.
It was not until nightfall that the group of cultists slowly retreated.
There were also some corpses left outside the city, and the blood had dyed the bricks and stones on the ground red.
The first day of fighting passed easily.
The strong men from both sides exchanged blood but did not take action.
Many warriors found it hard to believe that they had defeated the cultists so easily.
"Is it possible that the enemy is just feinting? Or is the target not here?"
Yue Shulan and the others looked somewhat confused.
"The enemy may want to delay us and prevent us from supporting other towns."
Xiao Chao on the side also started to guess.
"It's only the first day, and even the blood exchange masters haven't made a move yet. We still need to remain vigilant."
Tong Yuhua directly interrupted several people's speculation.
She would not be so optimistic.
