The sharp arrow breaks through the thunder.
Countless electric arcs splashed and scattered in all directions.
The source of the sharp arrow is a crossbow with a silvery luster.
This bed crossbow formed from morale is huge and extremely destructive. The bowstring buzzes and spits out a roar that can pierce through dozens of people. Several warriors surrounded both sides of the bed crossbow. Two of them twisted the axle in tacit understanding. Four of them opened their bows and loaded arrows. Two of them stared nervously at the dark sky and adjusted the shooting direction. The remaining warriors were responsible for protecting the safety of the bed crossbow and ensuring that they would not be damaged. destroyed by the enemy.
With Fang Yan's exit, the situation began to stabilize.
He multi-tasked. While assisting Chao Lian with his words and spirits to ensure that he was in the best combat condition, he also issued orders to distribute the morale of the city and turned into crossbows to deal with the continuous falling thunder disasters.
These thunder and lightning look scary, but their power is still lacking compared to the one back then. Fang Yan didn't believe that they were endless. As long as every thunder and lightning could be crushed accurately to ensure that the barrier was not damaged too much, the enemy in the dark would be unable to sit still sooner or later.
What kind of thing wants to sit on the Diaoyutai in front of him?
The power range of the bed crossbow is related to morale.
The arrows they use also consume morale.
The war has just started and morale needs to be conserved.
Fang Yan kept estimating the morale needed to crush these thunder and lightning in his mind, calculated the frequency of their falling, and ordered people to make enough bed crossbows. It takes time to charge the crossbow arrows, including the effort of twisting the axle and opening the bow to load the arrows, and it is easy for gaps to be exploited.
No matter how you calculate it, there will always be defensive blind spots.
At this time, it is necessary to fire the crossbows in a staggered manner and take turns.
The remaining missing lightning can be left to Chao Lian to clean up.
Even though they have been away for many years, many of the guards in Shangnan County are old people from that time, and they are extremely convinced by Fang Yan. Fang Yan was very good at using them. In addition, the guard was only thinking about getting rid of his fault, so the whole process went smoothly, and there was no problem of wrong or untimely instructions. As streaks of thunder and lightning exploded in mid-air, the banging and banging movement was like a gorgeous fireworks show.
The common people who were hiding in fear cautiously poked their heads out.
Many people’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Aniang, look, it’s a flower.”
The child was held in the woman's arms, and the mother and daughter huddled together in the corner. The child pointed his finger at the sky, his eyes confused. She is less than five years old and has been raised in a relatively stable environment since she was born, so she doesn't know much about the nightmares described by her elders. Naturally, she doesn't understand why adults are so frightened that they are shaking into chaff when flowers bloom on the horizon. Before, her parents took her to the lantern festival, and there were such beautiful flowers, but that was not the case at that time.
As soon as she stretched out her hand, A Niang pressed it down.
Aniang said: "Don't look, don't be afraid."
As she spoke, she looked around and saw that the chaotic streets had become deserted, leaving only a mess. She no longer hesitated and hurriedly ran towards home with her child in her arms. The fear from a few years ago rushed straight to Tianling Gai, and her legs were also weakening. , It seemed that I couldn't exert my strength, and every step felt like stepping on a thick pile of straw. She had firm faith in her heart and overcame her fear. The child lay on her shoulder and looked up at the densely blooming flowers in the sky. This was the first time she had seen flowers of such colors. She murmured: "It's so beautiful."
The thunder and lightning was shattered at a very high position, and many areas in the city could see this scene with their own eyes. Many people who were hiding in Tibet stared at it blankly, their racing hearts calmed down inexplicably, and they kept begging and praying to the gods and Buddhas in the sky, don't fall down!
"ah-"
A scream suddenly erupted from a corner.
There was a fish that slipped through the net and struck straight into the city.
Thunder and lightning broke through the dark night, reflecting the person's face into a miserable purple.
Boom—
Hideous thunder exploded overhead.
This thunder and lightning did not hit the city barrier, but instead injured the generals who came. For a brave warrior, this power is not enough to kill, but it is enough to drink a pot. Residual currents flowed wildly in the limbs and bones, causing the martial energy in the body to riot, and the blood to boil and flow backwards.
The general in mid-air could not stabilize her figure, so she was forced to fall to the roof of Fangshi and pause. In the next breath, she flew up again.
These thunder and lightning are controlled by people.
Their power and falling frequency are not fixed at all!
After slightly figuring out the defensive layout of Shangnan, I resolutely increased the coverage and quantity of lightning, but in an instant, dozens of "fish that slipped through the net" appeared indiscriminately. This brave warrior chose the nearest move. She was not fully prepared for this attack, and her strength was not very strong. If she took the second attack forcefully, she would be seriously injured at least, or damage her foundation at worst, making it difficult to improve her martial arts.
It’s not that I don’t understand this.
But I also understand that without a way to survive, there is no future.
Fang Yan recited the words softly.
…“…as a bow, with feathered spears as arrows, to trigger the movement…”
In a short while, there will be a deputy general.
“Strategic advisor, we don’t have enough bed crossbows!”
Not only are there not enough bed crossbows, there are also not enough soldiers to coordinate with the bed crossbows.
These thunderbolts are not powerful enough to penetrate the barrier, but they can continuously consume defense capabilities. If this trend continues, the enemy has not yet touched the edge, and their limits will soon be tested by the enemy. But at this point, they didn't even see the enemy's shadow. The enemy has not yet arrived, but the deterrence is full!
This is the first time I have seen such a scene in my entire life of fighting.
If those elite guards had not been deceived...
It is not so difficult.
There are not enough garrison troops, so the morale provided is naturally low.
Fang Yan was thinking about countermeasures and felt regretful.
He regretted that he only borrowed private soldiers from each family. If he had known this, he should have forced each family to provide hostages. With important hostages in hand, they had to cooperate in defending the city. Each family can still put together a group of literary scholars and courageous warriors. Although the level of strength is uneven, it is better than nothing. Then, the deputy general saw the corners of Fang Yan's mouth move, as if he was mumbling something.
“…it’s not too late yet.”
Is it too late?
What’s too late?
Such a question came to the lieutenant's mind.
As everyone knows, at this moment, someone has already shown a frightened expression, and his facial features are almost distorted. It is extremely rare to abandon the manners of a gentleman from aristocratic family, and he curses ugly: "Fang Laoliu, are you still a human being? Do you believe it or not that I am ** him?" !”
At the door of the first house where Fang Yan came.
The old friend looked at the corner of his house in horror.
The servant just came to report that a large, brightly colored, weird mushroom suddenly grew out of the corner of the wall. The mushrooms alone would not alarm the head of the family, but the insects lying on the ground next to the mushrooms were extremely poisonous at first glance. There were thin threads connecting the mushrooms. It was not a good mushroom at first glance. . An old friend came over to take a look at his weak legs. After digesting what he saw, he began to curse.
Why do you greet Gu Ren but not Fang Yan’s ancestors?
Hello whichever one is more lethal will naturally be greeted.
Helping Fang Yan's ancestors instead of greeting Gu Ren angered Fang Yan even more. He completely forgot that Gu Ren was also his old master. The old friend was so angry that his heart ached. He held his heart and gasped: "Fang Laoliu, Fang Laoliu, I will never be done with you in this life!"
It is really Fang Yan who deceives others too much.
The front leg came to threaten the borrower with heavy troops, and the back leg threatened him with poison at his home. Although he didn't leave a single word behind, looking at the mushrooms he knew what Fang Yan wanted to express -
Want an antidote?
Come and get it.
Yes, these mushrooms are the poison given by Fang Yan.
As for this old friend, he relied on his family's recommendation to become an official. Not long after he became an official, he helped handle the murder case. I still remember how when I did the autopsy, the body was covered with mushrooms.
He still knew from Fang Yan's mouth that he was the murderer of this murder case. At that time, considering that the court was gone and the two families were retaliating, Fang Yan surrendered to Gu Ren again, and his arms could not twist his thighs. , this matter will be settled.
I never expected that Fang Yan would be so shameless.
The steward of the house was waiting carefully: "Parents?"
The old friend covered his mouth and nose with a dark face and asked people to leave these poisonous mushrooms without pulling them out or burning them: "Gather the young men in the house, 70% of them are copycats to defend Sandao City! The remaining 30% are left to guard the house. Let the old and weak take care of it in the backyard."
Once this city is lost—
Young children and old and weak female relatives took advantage of the chaos to escape first.
Blessed by our ancestors, we only hope to retain a trace of fire.
The green hills are left and there is no need to worry about having no firewood.
He also did not forget to send people to inform other families and tell everyone about Fang Yan's sinister intentions. It was obvious that he wanted to tie them up and die together. If you don't want to die, defend the city with all your strength. Otherwise, when Fang Yan dies, all the people who were poisoned will be buried with him!
No matter what the outcome of this battle is, the feud is settled.
As my old friend led people over, he cursed even more harshly.
He is also a literary scholar.
Disliked that the speed was too slow, he handed over the people in the house to his clan brothers and rushed to the front line first. During this period, the amount of thunder that could not be stopped was visibly doubled. The thickness and color of the barrier are also a bit thin visible to the naked eye, while the thunderclouds have a tendency to thicken.
Old friend can tell at a glance that the situation is not favorable for the defender.
"Fang Laoliu, if you die, you will die. You are going to see Gu Ziyi. Why do you have to drag me with you?" When he saw Fang Yan, the anger he had finally suppressed surged up. He scolded him verbally, but still resigned himself to his fate and cast an amplifying word spirit on him. He said helplessly, "Shen Youli today is much more eye-catching than Gu Ziyi back then. How many people do you know who secretly want her to die without a complete body?"
Does he know?
He has no idea.
Not only did he not know, he also wanted to pay for it with his own life.
Fang Yan calmly revealed his old friend's thoughts: "I know, why don't you know? I'm afraid you are also the one who wants to see her die."
The old friend didn't hide it, and he readily admitted: "There are people with some background who don't want her to die."
Shen Youli has affected the interests of too many people, and these people only chose to compromise when choosing the lesser of two evils. This does not mean that they are happy to be suppressed by Shen Youli all the time. If there was a chance to make a big bet, they wouldn't mind changing it for another day!
Fang Yan said: "Too greedy."
All ambition stems from greed.
Old friends sneered at this evaluation.
There is no individual in this world who is not greedy. Those so-called noble, upright and honest people are mostly hypocrites who are not what they seem. Their satisfaction is just that they have not encountered temptations that are enough to impress them, or the rewards are not enough for them to take off the false reputation bestowed by the outside world. Fang Yan's evaluation was too light and his pursuit was too contrary to human nature.
Fang Yan just laughed emotionlessly.
He said: "I am not the only one who can speak with words, but I can see the truth in my hands."
Who will win? The result hasn’t been announced yet?
The old friend knew that it was impossible for Fang Yan to come up with the antidote, and also knew that if he threatened Fang Yan at this moment, he would be chopped into pieces with random knives, so he could only sigh and accept his fate. It happened that Fang Yan really owed him. It was because of the massacre that Fang Yan had caused that he took the blame for Shang Feng's incompetence. His official career was not smooth, and he resigned and returned home angrily within two years.
Now they are here to trick him again, and they will kill him as soon as they come.
They must be in conflict with each other!
Old friend also wanted to make a few taunts, such as saying that his nest had been hacked by the enemy. The next breath he saw Fang Yan's expression changing, not getting worse, but a look of joy visible to the naked eye.
Just because in a dazzling "thunder flower", three rays of light of different colors fell on Chao Lian almost at the same time. Then three figures approached quickly and climbed directly onto the city wall.
Luckily, Fang Yan had quick eyesight and quick hands to change the order.
Otherwise, at least two crossbow arrows would have been fired at them.
When he saw who was coming, Fang Yan was overjoyed.
“Pray for the book!”
Qishan was the first to climb the city wall.
At a glance, he found Fang Yan who was taking command.
The second person who came up was a familiar face. The last time we met could be traced back to more than ten years ago. If this person hadn't followed Qi Shan, Fang Yan would have drawn his sword and chopped him down. He resisted the urge to take the person down: "Why is it you?"
There is no embarrassment on the face of the congratulatory letter.
He said: "I will explain it after this battle is over."
Seeing that Fang Yan was still wary, the congratulatory letter could only point to Qi Shan to vouch for himself: "Qi Yuan Liang can testify that today we are friends and not enemies."
Fang Yan sneered and pointed at the sky: "Would I believe it?"
“If you have teeth that chatter, let alone your brothers?”
He and He Shu are not of the same mind for the time being.
This point, Qi Yuanliang can guarantee.
Fang Yan can only give up temporarily.
Not long after, a third figure also climbed onto the city wall.
A few people simply greeted each other. After seeing this person's appearance clearly, Fang Yan could finally breathe a sigh of relief. Luan Gongyi and Qi Yuanliang were one of the most trusted ministers of the Lord. Their appearance meant that reinforcements were coming soon. Shangnan would definitely be able to avert danger this time. .
Choi Sun-hyo, who has been ignored all his life: “…”
No, isn’t he a person?
There are complaints in my heart but it is not the time to complain.
Cui Shanxiao just coughed heavily, as if there was a thousand-year-old phlegm stuck in his throat, which no one could ignore even if they wanted to. When Fang Yan cast a confused and shocked look, he turned the knife and fan in a fancy way, with cool and neat movements, and said calmly: "Don't panic, wait for Cui to fight with it."
Be high-spirited and confident, the focus of the crowd.
Qi Shan felt his teeth were a little sore: "Don't you need help?"
∣Cui Xiaodao: "If you need it, lend me your literary spirit."
。
I pray for good and agree to it happily.
Although they are contradictory to each other, they are all masters after all, and there is a natural tacit understanding when working together. Cui Xiao looked up at the roaring thunderclouds in the sky and was heartbroken. The handle of the fan was turned in his hand, and he chanted softly: "If you don't see me, you will turn a blind eye."
There is no target, it depends on how you chop!
