Hui Ziheng and the other young and strong sailors were all extremely excited when they saw this scene.
This ambush was executed brilliantly. Before the Red King even arrived, the defeated Water Gang soldiers had already breached the fortress gates, allowing them to advance unimpeded.
Hui Ziheng then realized that the opportunity was fleeting and he couldn't just sit here waiting for orders. He had to wait for someone to come over.
Such a good opportunity to attack, wouldn't it be a pity not to take advantage of it and break into the fortress?
The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. Chi Junlin had told him before that the real battlefield is not static and some unexpected situations are normal.
When the time comes, he must be able to adapt to the situation and make decisions on the spot.
However, just as Hui Ziheng was about to lead a group of elite troops to storm the fortress along with the fleeing soldiers.
Suddenly, several fierce-looking elite members of the Water Gang appeared and fiercely drove back the fleeing soldiers.
And under the firelight.
Then a middle-aged man, wielding a long spear and with a gloomy expression, appeared, exuding an unstoppable aura—
He walked slowly out of the fortress.
Chapter 274 Three-Way Melee
Inside the fortress.
Although the battle for the harbor in the north of the island and the sudden incident at the Never-Sleeping Tower in the south made time extremely tight.
However, not much time had actually passed since Wenren Tianxia and Chi Junlin parted ways.
In the short span of time, Wenren Tianxia, following Chi Junlin's instructions, set fire to the bandits' armory and secretly assassinated several bandit leaders.
The bandits inside the fortress were unaware that only Wenren Tianxia was causing trouble, so they were extremely nervous.
In the midst of the chaos, they heard hurried footsteps and shouts from within the fortress, as if countless people were attacking the place.
However, some people remained clear-headed at this time.
Then they saw several leaders gathered in the council hall. After questioning them, they realized that there weren't many infiltrators in the fortress.
It was the bandits who lost their composure first.
At that moment, someone stood up and shouted, "What's the panic! Quiet down! No shouting!"
Seeing that there were still wounded bandits lying on the ground groaning, he went forward and killed them with a single stroke.
Immediately, the gang members fell silent, no longer daring to make any more noise.
At this point, the leaders discussed the matter and decided that each of them would gather manpower to quell the chaos on the island.
Then a bald leader spoke up, "I'll take some men to the north to support the gang leader. Second Brother and Third Brother, you two stay here and take care of that guy who snuck in!"
The group nodded in agreement and were about to lead their men to gather their followers.
Then, a girl with a single ponytail, covered in blood, holding a long sword, and smiling, walked into the hall.
Seeing these leaders gathered here, he smiled and said, "I knew you would come here for a meeting."
The group was taken aback when they saw the girl who had suddenly appeared.
The former bald leader immediately gritted his teeth and said, "So it was you, little girl, who caused trouble in my fortress and made us search for you!"
We didn't even bother looking for you, yet you dare to come before us! You're truly courting death!
Upon hearing his words, Wenren Tianxia immediately broke into a broad smile.
"act recklessly?"
She licked her lips, twirled her sword, and walked towards the group.
Clearly, they would soon find out who this fool was.
-
On the other side, in the lobby of the Never-Sleeping Building.
A considerable amount of time had passed since he sent his men to the courtesan's quarters.
The bandit leader gradually realized that something was wrong.
Because it's been too long since then.
The courtesan's room, on the other hand, was unusually quiet.
This is clearly illogical.
The leader of the bandits sensed something was wrong and signaled to his men.
"You, go over there and take a look."
"You, take your men and go around from that side."
After issuing several orders, the bandits split into several groups, each searching the courtesan's quarters from different directions.
At this moment, everyone was extremely quiet, because no one knew what had happened.
But when the different bandit groups arrived near the courtesan's room on the second floor, they suddenly saw that the surrounding candlelight went out.
The scene became flickering between light and darkness, making one's heart race.
At that moment, a strange sound of footsteps could be heard.
The weight varied, like a burly man swaying uncontrollably due to drunkenness.
Immediately afterwards, in the dim light, the burly men who had entered the courtesan's room earlier emerged from inside, their faces drooping like zombies.
"Ghost... ghost!"
"The body is moving! It's moving!"
At this point, some people started to panic and began shouting.
The leader of the bandits immediately roared, "Shut up!"
He cursed again, "Damn it, this is all a bunch of charlatans!"
With that, he thrust his knife towards the burly man's body.
But to my surprise, the other party neither screamed nor cried out when the knife was slashed.
Instead, it turned at an odd angle, its body spinning in the air like a marionette.
Then he slashed horizontally at the leader.
Caught off guard, the leader had his head sliced off by this single blow.
The surrounding bandits scattered in all directions as if in an uproar.
"Oh my god! This is terrifying!"
"There's a zombie thread! There's a zombie thread!"
But to their surprise, several extremely sharp thin lines had already been drawn into the air in the direction they were fleeing.
Several people rushed over, and their necks were slashed to pieces, blood gushing out as they fell to the ground.
This made the group of bandits even more confused.
In the chaos, several more whip shadows came from the air.
Several people were hanged in the air and strangled to death.
After the last of the group of river bandits was dealt with.
Wenren Xuan emerged from the darkness.
Although her martial arts skills weren't particularly high, they were more than enough to deal with this group of river bandits.
But she seemed to enjoy the cat-and-mouse game and the thrill of "startling you," constantly tormenting and teasing this group of wicked thugs.
Only after she had finished slaughtering all the river bandits did she clapp her hands with a grin and turn to Liu Shi, asking, "Is everything taken care of?"
Looking at the bandits lying dead on the ground, Liu's expression was somewhat complicated.
But he still nodded at Wenren Xuan.
So the two of them came downstairs, ready to rescue the wealthy businessmen below.
However, when they arrived at the scene of the wealthy merchants and prostitutes who were bound together, they saw several pimps who were stunned and looking at Wenren Xuan with fear on their faces.
Wenren Xuan then looked at Madam Liu and asked, "Are these people innocent?"
Liu shook her head with hatred, revealing a gritted-teeth expression.
So these villains who aided and abetted evil knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, begging Wenren Xuan to spare their lives.
At that moment, Wenren Xuan squatted down with a smile and glanced at them.
"Fine, I'll spare you then."
The group of guys then kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude.
But then Wenren Xuan said with a smile, "However, I'd like to play a game with you."
It's a very simple game, it won't take too long..."
-
"Bang-bang-bang-"
A continuous series of gunfire erupted before the fortress gate.
Illuminated by the firelight, Hui Ziheng retreated step by step, his face turning extremely pale.
He hadn't expected that even though the enemy was now down to just one person, he could still force a group of young and strong warriors to retreat continuously.
Even if they charged forward fearlessly, they would still be easily killed by the gunman, one shot at a time.
Seeing that the strong men around him were horrified and dared not advance, Hui Ziheng knew that at this moment, only he could fight them.
But even though they were both using guns, he felt completely outmatched!
After only a few rounds, his hands were already numb, and he could barely hold the gun.
Under the firelight, Li Zheng held a gun in one hand, guarding the castle gate like a lone warrior.
Is it possible that their carefully selected elite force will be stopped here by a mere person?
Chapter 275 The Frog in the Well
"Dang! Dang! Dang!"
After several rounds, Hui Ziheng felt that he had given it his all.
He used every ounce of strength with each shot, but he felt that the middle-aged man's spear force was as solid as a mountain, and he was unmoved.
Hui Ziheng was horrified.
You should know that he practiced shooting from a young age, training himself every day without fail.
Now, there is no one in Xiangshui County whose martial arts skills are superior to his. Even in sparring practice in the camp, he cannot find an opponent whose marksmanship is better than his.
Otherwise, Hui Ziheng would not have been recommended as a militia instructor at such a young age, to teach the spear techniques of all the soldiers in the prefecture.
Even so, Hui Ziheng could not find any chance of winning against the middle-aged man in front of him.
After several more exchanges, Hui Ziheng gritted his teeth, feeling that he had used all his strength.
Unexpectedly, the man sighed.
But he uttered two words that shocked Hui Ziheng.
"Too weak..."
Before he could finish speaking, the man's gun tip jerked.
As they spoke, an extremely domineering force surged from the tips of their intersecting spears into Hui Ziheng's front.
His hands couldn't hold on, and the gun bounced back hard, slamming into Hui Ziheng's chest.
His body flew backward involuntarily, tumbling several times before landing on the ground.
The spear in his hand clattered and rolled to the ground.
At this moment, Hui Ziheng's group of brave men were somewhat at a loss.
Someone called out "Instructor" and tried to help him up.
But Hui Ziheng immediately raised his hand, telling them not to come any closer.
