Chapter 377: The Hole

The cavalry dismounted, and the female soldiers got a heavy crossbow, loaded with two-finger-thick stainless steel crossbow arrows, and aimed at the hole in the main room from a distance. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

There was a loud bang, sparks flew everywhere, and the steel crossbow bolt struck the iron plate and flew diagonally, hitting the wall and splashing a cloud of smoke.

The dust dissipated, and I saw that the hard crossbow arrows were twisted and deformed very seriously, and the tips of the arrows at the front end were bent over, which shocked everyone, this is a heavy crossbow that can penetrate a half-meter-thick stone wall, and it did not break an iron door, and it was twisted like this, you can imagine how strong the inverted iron door is.

The sturdiness of the iron door is obvious to all, but the heavy crossbow is not useless at all, at least, the iron door is deeply dented by the heavy crossbow, and the edge of the iron door is slightly warped.

With this gap, it was easy to do, and a few strong cavalrymen dismounted, picked up the crowbars, iron sticks and other tools found in the warehouse, and finally pried the iron door open with great effort.

When the iron gate opened, the cavalry retreated behind the heavy shields of the female soldiers as fast as they could, and then, dozens of crossbow arrows and feather arrows shot into the hole, and muffled grunts came out one after another.

At the same time, the heavy shield of the female soldiers in the front row was also a jingle, crossbow arrows, flying knives, and various hidden weapons sparked on the heavy shield, fortunately, the heavy shield of the female soldiers was not the wooden shield that Yuan Fang used when they were in the forward battalion, it was forged with several layers of iron sheet and a layer of stainless steel, and the defensive power was not something that simple feather arrows and hidden weapons could penetrate. After the first battle between the two sides, the female soldiers used their fastest speed to draw their bows and arrows again, shooting at the gap of the heavy shield in turn, suppressing them from a distance, and after a few rounds of attacks, there was no sound inside.

Chang Xun ordered people to throw a few torches in, but no one else could be seen except for five or six corpses on the ground. Lin Ru, who had just arrived, did not enter recklessly when he saw this, and ordered the female soldiers to open the way with heavy shields, approached cautiously, and after making sure that the Deadpools were dead, they carried the corpses out of the cave and slowly advanced along the tunnel, and at the same time, sent someone to inform Yuqing of the situation in the Yong'an Palace, so that she could be ready to rush into the Yong'an Hall at any time to rescue Yang Xing, Yuan Fang and Xiaomei.

Lao Wu stood at the entrance of the cave, probing his head to watch the female soldiers continue to advance, as torches were erected along the way, Lao Wu frowned, and said to Chang Xun and Lin Ru: "Something is wrong, the direction of this secret passage is to the south, but the Yong'an Palace is in the north, if the person who designed the secret passage is not an idiot, then this secret passage is not to the Yong'an Palace." ”

Chang Xun and Lin Ru glanced at each other and set their eyes on the iron gate in the side room.

Lin Ru asked, "What should I do?" ”

Chang Xun hesitated for a moment, and said fiercely: "Go on, we have enough manpower now, let's kill it first." Lin Ru didn't have a better way, nodded, and ordered the heavy crossbow to aim at the other iron door and break the hole according to the method just now.

The female soldiers first broke the windows and some shelters, and aimed the crossbow at the hole, this time the luck was not as good as the last time, two arrows in a row knocked the iron door of the hole into shape, and then, a group of female soldiers surrounded the hole, and the strong cavalry used a crowbar to pry open the iron door, and the female soldiers fired a salvo of bows and crossbows according to the previous routine, but this time there was no sound.

One of the horsemen threw the torch in his hand hard, and as the fire deepened, a black shadow burst out, startling everyone.

The speed of the black shadow was amazing, and before the cavalry who threw the torch could react, he saw a flash of cold light in front of him, only to feel a cold chill in his neck, and at the same time a stream of heat gushed out, he was hit by a fierce kick in the chest, and his body involuntarily flew out upside down.

The weight of one hundred and eighty pounds was kicked away by a seemingly fluttering kick, and the cavalry was already out of breath the moment he flew out, and his body slammed into the heavy shield of the female soldier, and the neat heavy shield shook slightly, revealing a gap.

At this moment, which black shadow followed, twisted his body, and drilled into the heavy shield along the gap he received, and then, the cold light in his hand flashed, and he fought his way out of the siege without waiting for most of the female soldiers to react, and jumped out of the room.

Lin Ru's eyes were red, just now, she saw that at least ten female soldiers' throats were cut, blood gushed out along the wounds, they reached out to hold their necks, and their mouths made choked sounds, but they couldn't say a word.

Just as Lin Ru drew his sword and was about to chase out, there was a loud bang, and then, the tiles and dust above the roof were sprinkled, and Lin Ru protected the top of his head and ordered loudly: "Get out." ”

When Chang Xun pulled Lin Ru out of the window, he felt as if there was something on the ground, ran to a safe place and looked back, Chang Xun was stunned for a moment, and then shouted to stop the female soldier who was about to come out of the window: "Stop, be alert." ”

The female soldier with one foot on the window was stunned when she heard this, then withdrew her foot, backed back against the falling dust, and gave way to the heavy shield behind her.

After a long time, the dust in the room settled, and Lu Ling, who hurriedly arrived after learning that someone was injured, and several military doctors glanced at the black-clothed man under the window who had almost half of his right leg torn, and without the slightest pause, they rushed into the door to treat the injured female soldier.

Lin Ru and Chang Xun stared at the man in black who barely sat up against the wall, looking at the short sword in his hand and the blood gushing out from under him, Lin Ru raised his right hand, and was about to order the crossbowmen behind him to shoot, Chang Xun stretched out his hand to stop Lin Ru: "Wait, I saw him, he was in Yong'an Hall just now, he should be the queen's cronies, it may be useful to leave him alive." ”

The man in black had killed so many female soldiers just now, Lin Ru hated him to the core, and wanted to chop him into meat paste, but Chang Xun's words also made sense, in desperation, Lin Ru slowly put down his right hand and said to a female soldier behind him: "Shoot his right hand." ”

The female soldier received the order, aimed at the buckle spring, an armor-piercing heavy crossbow broke through the air, and shot the right wrist of the man in black without any difference, the powerful impact force, with the arm of the man in black nailed to the wall, the short sword in his hand could no longer hold it and fell off, the man in black spit out a mouthful of blood, looked around everyone, and finally looked at the crossbow, his eyes flashed a trace of unwillingness and bitterness, and slowly closed his eyes.

It is understandable for Lin Ru to be so careful, after all, the strength of this man in black is too strong, once he is given a chance to resist, the loss will be the lives of his own female soldiers.

Everyone can see that the man in black, that is, Situ Zheng, is not dead, he has just lost hope, and he has lost the ability to escape when one of his legs is almost broken, and he is under siege, what else can he do? Being captured is a certainty, and maybe he has other options, such as biting through the poison hidden in his mouth like other Deadpools, but he doesn't do that, he still has a concern, a concern that he can't leave with peace of mind.
