Chapter 315 Dragon in the Net (Part 2)
On the middle of Longjiabao, a tall building stands slightly westward, a five-story building that is taller than all the buildings in Xunyang.
The title of this building is Feilong, which is exactly the hexagram of Feilong in the sky in the Book of Changes. Such a tall building really deserves its name and truly makes it high above and overlooks the entire Longjia Castle.
This is where Long Sihai's daily routine and handling related affairs are located. Whenever the sun sets, he will climb to the highest floor, look down at everything below on the railing, and see everything in the entire Longjia Castle and the entire Xunyang City. All this is in his eyes and in his mastery. He cannot give up even if he is over 80 years old.
But today he is not in Feilong Tower. The time is wrong. It is just noon. The time is not right. Longjiabao is worried about internal and external troubles and the war is in urgent need. Long Sihai, as the leader of the clan, naturally could not run here to hide from the quiet. However, the fifth floor of Feilong Tower that he should have been able to go up to, was now a man standing behind the wooden railing, watching all the changes below.
Don’t live!
The remnant of the Huntian Army, who came from Lanxi Town, Liping with Li Ling and others, was standing leisurely in the position that should have been stood by the leader of the Long family, smiling at everything in front of him, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
Of course, he is not the only one here. In the hall behind him, there are also several men with swords and strong demeanor standing there, always paying attention to the movements around him. Not only on this floor, but also on the four, three and two floors below and at the bottom floor, there are also quite a few people guarding there. Many people have bows and crossbows in their hands, aiming at the closed door of the building. If someone really dares to break in, they will inevitably suffer a head-on attack.
Yes, at this time, the Feilong Tower was occupied by the magpie nest. As an outsider, Mo Li has become the owner here. The purpose of his coming here is to control everything, and then look at everything in Xunyang City, everyone follows the route they have set to die.
He saw the soldiers of the barbarians entering the fortress, the army of the second sect rushed towards the Longjia Fort, the chaos and fear of the fort guarding the fortress, and the incomprehension and retreat...
"This is just the beginning..." After murmured, his eyes had fallen to the high wall above the castle gate, and then he happened to witness the amazing scene. Long Tianyao suddenly fell from the building, and Long Sihai fainted, and all the command power there had fallen into Long Tianxiang's control.
This made him stretch out his finger, point forward, pointing at the fort gate: "Closing the net, it's beginning!"
After the words came, the fort gate opened wide, and arrows flew out from the inside like raindrops, shooting all the two sect masters and generals such as Long Tianba who had just arrived in front of the gate. And as they suddenly fell down, the thousands of people behind them were stunned for a moment. This was a situation they had never thought about. The main generals and a large number of generals who were commanding the battle were killed one after another. They had become a mess. Not to mention fighting desperately, they could not even retreat. Everyone was stunned in panic until countless soldiers of the main sect rushed out and surrounded them.
On the castle gate, Long Tianxiang was still standing on a high place. Seeing this, he just said lightly: "Those who put down their weapons and kneel on the ground can survive, and the rest will be killed!"
"Put down your weapons and kneel on the ground! Put down your weapons and kneel on the ground!" The soldiers surrounding both sides shouted loudly and kept moving forward, giving the strongest pressure to this panicked army.
After a while, they finally lost the desire to fight again, threw down their weapons, and knelt down obediently. Perhaps there were people here who were resentful because of the death of the sect leader and the general, but under such circumstances, they could only bow their heads. At least they could still save their lives by doing so.
After seeing this scene, Mo Li's mouth just curled gently, quickly moved his gaze away, and turned to look further away. Beyond the city gate there were good shows.
Yes, when Longjiabao encountered consecutive attacks, the camps of various sects and villages that came from afar outside the city were also being attacked by surprise!
Long Tianhao led his men to walk all the way until he approached the city gate, and suddenly he found that there were many people missing in the team, and Li Ling and his party, who were extremely critical, disappeared.
This made him feel extremely suspicious, and he secretly speculated whether the incident was related to the other party, but now is not the time to care about the truth, because the city was already in chaos, and the soldiers and horses that the two sects robbed the fire, and other killers of unknown origins had already messed up the city of Xunyang. If they didn't leave the city quickly, they would be trapped here.
So they stopped slowing down and rushed to the city gate. However, the city gate here had been closed, and the troops guarding the gate were even more ready to fight, not only guarding the outside but also guarding the inside. When they saw Long Tianhao and his team rushed towards them, they immediately raised their crossbows and pointed them at them, and loudly asked about their origins.
Someone from Long Tianhao immediately reported his identity and asked them to open the city and let them wait for themselves.
According to Long Tianhao's idea, there should be some difficulties here. At least he has to ask his family to come out of the city to get more identity certificates, otherwise there would be no need for them to be so careful.
But to his surprise, when he heard about their identities, the military officer defending the city ordered the door to open without hesitation. Although only one gap was opened, it was enough to allow them to leave the city quickly.
This was a bit unexpected to everyone, but after they were all let go, Long Tianhao naturally couldn't ask too much, so he decisively led his people out of the city. After more than 200 people from their group left the city, the gate behind him quickly closed, and a urging sounded from the city behind him: "Go away!"
With doubt, Long Tianhao rushed back to the camp. At least he was in the middle of his army, and his safety could be guaranteed.
But the facts once again made his guess fail, because just as he returned to the camp and wanted to find out what was going on in the city, the whistling bamboo whistle kept ringing from the rear, and then someone stumbled in and reported: "Master, the big thing is not good. There is a large army of barbarians running over from behind, behind..."
"What?" Long Tianhao's first reaction was that he didn't believe it, and he even felt that what he had come might be the soldiers and horses of Wuguzhai who had been invited to help him before. But when he rushed outside the tent and looked back, he was really shocked-
Countless barbarian soldiers were rushing towards the barracks here, some running from the official roads and some rushing down from the forests. The momentum was so fast that he could not believe it at all if he came to meet and discuss.
"Hurry! The whole army gathers and prepares for defense!" Long Tianhao's reaction was fast enough. When he saw that the situation was not good, he quickly ordered the response.
However, the troops under their command were not so powerful. Although they were already a little panicked, it was extremely difficult for them to set up a defensive formation in a short period of time. As the enemy continued to fight, there was a mess in the military camp.
"Boundist, push me up and block them!" Long Tianhao shouted loudly, and he was already drawing his sword in his hand, waving it repeatedly, trying to force his subordinates to raise their fighting spirit and spirit.
But the effect was still very small. Dozens of archers stepped forward in a scattered manner. No one had issued orders, and someone had already shot the arrows blindly. At this time, the enemy was still more than a hundred steps away from them, and the arrows had no effect at all.
The distance between three or five miles was nothing to be with these barbarian soldiers who were sprinting with all their might. In just a short while, they had already rushed to the rear of the barbarian camp. With the roar, they even raised the simple iron swords and bamboo spears in their hands and accelerated the charge again.
The decisive posture and the intimidating aura made thousands of soldiers even more frightened. The archers in front could not even put the arrows on the string at this time. Occasionally, a few movements were in place and the arrows were released. The scattered arrows could not cause any obstacles to the barbarians at all, let alone shooting down a few.
The Long family was the dominant family in Qianzhou and lived without foreign enemies for ten years. They had already exhausted the fighting spirit and spirit they should have. They had long been used to suppressing people with power, but when they really came to the battlefield, they really met these fierce barbarians as fierce as wolves, but at this moment they had the idea of turning around and running away.
Even Long Tianhao's voice was hoarse because of panic: "Retreat...Retreat to the city..." It is obviously unwise to fight head-on with these barbarians with more soldiers and more fierce horses in the wild, so there is only one way to retreat. After all, they still have a strong city to defend, right?
The soldiers who had already lost their courage were waiting for his order. This time they were much more tidy and turned around and "retreat". Only those most loyal subordinates were surrounded by Long Tianhao and Long Fang, protecting them to run back to the city gate again.
At this time, the crossbowmen who stayed behind and the hundreds of people who took the initiative to leave behind the palace had already fought with the barbarians. Although they were determined to fight to the death, under the fierce rushing and fierce attacks of these equally desperate and even more fierce barbarians, their queue was quickly washed away, and everyone was divided and surrounded, and then completely swallowed up.
All this happened in just a short moment. This army who wanted to be the back of the palace finally couldn't even resist the enemy's footsteps...
Long Tianhao had rushed to the city gate again and shouted loudly: "I am Long Tianhao of the Three Sects, please open the door quickly and follow me to defeat the enemy!"
As a result, the city responded to him with a burst of arrows and a voice that was extremely cold: "According to the military order, Xunyang City Gate will only go out but not in. Anyone dares to approach, and kill them no matter how hard they are!"
Long Tianhao was shocked and wanted to shout something again, but the oncoming arrows made him unable to speak. At this time, the barbarian army behind had quickly pressed forward and surrounded them from left to right, which had deprived them of the last possibility of breaking through!
