Sword from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 34 The God of Wind comes to help burn down the camps!

The members of the Baling Gang shouted in unison, drew their swords and rushed forward.

Suddenly, there was a loud shout, as loud as thunder, which made everyone's eardrums hurt!

A big man shot out like an arrow, with the tip of his spear pointed directly at the three knife-wielding gang members in front.

The first person was unable to react in time and was killed instantly.

The spear tip turned, and the second member of the Baling Gang raised his knife to block, but felt a huge force coming!
The tiger's mouth was cracked and the steel knife was knocked out of the hand.

Shan Xiongxin thrust his spear forward, and the spear tip pierced his chest.

With his remaining momentum still strong, he drew out his gun and swept it horizontally, sending the third man flying backwards with blood, and knocking over the army tent!

In the dim light of the campfire, a pair of ferocious leopard eyes flickered, and several gang members at the back stopped in fear.

This big man was burly and ferocious, with a lot of internal energy. With a gun in hand, he was like a killing god in a chaotic battle!
Zhou Yi and Mu Dao Ren rushed out from the left and right.

The short and fat Taoist raised his palm in the air, and he attacked with anger, releasing a powerful true energy!
The cold energy brought by the strange true energy was pervasive, and the gang members with weaker skills instantly had their teeth chattering and fell down.

Zhou Yi took advantage of this gap and rushed towards the stiff crowd with a knife.

It was like the shadow of a crane, suddenly passing by.

Amidst a series of screams, a lot of blood rain fell. The bean-sized drops of blood were pouring onto the blood flowers stained by Lai Changming, suffocating and brilliant.

Several gang members collapsed to the ground.

Taoist Mu’s expression changed!
Shan Xiongxin checked the results of the battle and said one thing at a time:

"We killed eight of them. Taoist Mu was a little slow this time, and his methods of eliminating the evil were slightly inferior."

Zhou Yi comforted him:
"That's alright, the stage here is wide open, and Master Mu still has room to display his talents."

Taoist Mu said something similar in the alley yesterday, and the two of them brought up the old matter again.

The short and fat Taoist stared at Zhou Yi and pointed at the corpse on the ground.

"Bullshit, you're trying to steal my head."

Zhou Yi smiled and said, "These are small characters, not worthy of Master Mu's attack. If Yuwen Chengdu comes to kill him, Master Mu will show his skills."

"I don't take Yuwen Chengdu seriously," Taoist Mu said, holding his head high. "But I don't want to be fooled by you."

Zhou Yi pretended not to hear and went towards the tent with Shan Xiongxin.

As he walked, he said to Shan Xiongxin, "Old Shan, I heard that the Yuwen clan's Ice Mysterious Energy is also a different kind of Qi. I wonder which one is more powerful, the same as Quan Xing's Tian Shuang Ning Han."

Shan Xiongxin said honestly:
"The Yuwen clan's Mysterious Ice Energy is naturally well-known. Unfortunately, when it comes to Quan Xing's unique Qi, I'm afraid not many people have heard of it. Of course, I don't mean to underestimate Taoist Mu in the slightest."

Zhou Yi nodded: "I understand, I understand"

The short and fat Taoist's face changed again and again. There were shouts and sounds of killing everywhere. He looked around and followed the two men into the big tent.

There were thirteen captured girls in the two large tents guarded by the Baling Gang.

This time, he risked his life to break into the camp because of these people. Seeing that they were safe, Zhou Yi felt relieved.

He quickened his pace and untied the ropes for them while asking about the situation.

The brave ones responded a few times.

Lai Changming took them to meet Yuwen Chengdu. Those who were better looking stayed, but the rest have disappeared.

As soon as the Taikang rebel army was destroyed, the army headed north.

At that time, Lai Changming would escort him all the way to Dongdu.

Zhou Yi noticed that a thin girl was looking at him with a hesitant expression.

He reacted instantly, walked over and asked:

"Are you Uncle Li's daughter?"

The doubt in the girl's eyes disappeared, and her voice trembled: "Tianshi~~!"

She was about to kneel on the ground, but Zhou Yi grabbed her sleeve and helped the thin girl up.

Zhou Yi, who was full of murderous intent just now, smiled and said with relief:

"I am here now, and I will definitely ask you to return to Yongqiu."

The thin girl didn't know what to say, so she just called out "Tianshi" again.

Zhou Yi saw that the people around him also wanted to kneel down to express their gratitude, so he quickly comforted them:

"The camp is in chaos now. This is a golden opportunity. Follow me now."

The Mu Taoist looked outside the tent.

After a moment, he came back and made a gesture. Zhou Yi led his men out of the tent and headed straight west, which was the edge of the new camp.

The Yingyangfu Army was engaged in a chaotic battle with the Taikang Righteous Army. Yue Sigui led the new camp's troops to attack from behind, leaving Yuwen Chengdu's men trapped in the middle.

At this time, it is naturally safest to walk against the people in the new camp.

Shan Xiongxin was the last one to come, because he was swinging the Baling Gang's carriage, making the biggest noise.

As we passed through the camps and tents, we saw many rebel soldiers coming to kill us.

Zhou Yi and Mu Dao Ren cooperated, one disrupted the opponent and the other chopped and killed with a knife.

Most of these chaotic soldiers surrounding the new camp were young and strong soldiers who were forcibly recruited from outside. They only knew some military martial arts and were not masters of the Tiger and Leopard Camp.

In addition, they were fighting and charging randomly, so even if they were wearing armor, they would not be a threat to the two of them.

They rushed all the way to the edge of the new camp. It was pitch black ahead and the sound of the rushing water in the Cai River could not be heard clearly, as it was completely drowned out by the shouts and screams from behind.

Shan Xiongxin drove the carriage out of the tent.

The Baling Gang had two carriages, so they could only squeeze into one.

"Are we leaving now?" asked Taoist Mu.

Zhou Yi immediately shook his head, "I said I was here to settle accounts, how can I just walk away?"

Shan Xiongxin got off the carriage and said, "That's right, we should kill him while he's sick."

Mu Dao Ren looked as if he had known this would happen. "How are you going to settle the score?"

Zhou Yi closed his eyes and felt the strong night wind.

"Didn't Yue Sigui leave some 'groceries'? Let's get started."

"Let's do this."

Zhou Yi quickly explained, and the three of them temporarily settled the girls in the carriage, drove the carriage into the darkness in the distance, and then returned to the camp.
At this time, the two armies were fighting fiercely.

After the initial losses, the Yingyangfu Army quickly stabilized its position.

In terms of hard power, the Taikang rebels are no match for them.

However, the new camp's troops attacked from behind, making it difficult for them to take care of both ends, and the Yingyangfu army fell into a passive position again!
"General, General!" Cavalry Captain You Hongda was an excellent horseman. In the dark and chaotic camp, he continued to ride without stopping and quickly rushed to the central army commander's tent.

A tall figure walked out of the general's tent.

This man has a handsome appearance and a particularly large nose, which makes his eye sockets look long and narrow, and his eyes flash with a sinister and cold look.

It was Yuwen Chengdu, the commander-in-chief of the Yingyangfu Army.

You Hongda jumped off his horse, holding a steel whip that was still dripping with blood, and shouted:
"General, I have killed most of the rebels in the new camp, and beheaded six of their leaders!"

"it is good!"

Yuwen Chengdu praised him: "While the situation is still tense, gather all your capable men. The rebels from Taikang are already here."

"They have already charged the battle line more than three times."

"Listen to my orders later. I will have your men counterattack with my guard battalion. While they are exhausted, we will wipe out the Taikang rebels in one fell swoop."

"Yes!"

After You Hongda agreed, he looked at the dark clouds in the sky and laughed out loud:

"General, God is helping me!"

"The wind is blowing hard right now, and this dark cloud in the sky will soon be blown away. These rebels rely on the cover of night. Once the clouds disperse and the moonlight shines down, I will immediately mobilize my cavalry to charge and defeat the rebel army!"

Yuwen Chengdu looked up at the sky and saw that large dark clouds were moving away and the moonlight was gradually getting brighter.

I was overjoyed!

"what?!"

You Hongda let out a strange cry and suddenly felt the sky become brighter.

what happened?

The dark clouds haven't dissipated yet.

A fiery red light burned the corner of his eyes. Yuwen Chengdu and he looked up and saw the brilliant fire in the big tent behind!
This time, the moonlight is brighter than what You Hongda wanted.

"Walk away!"

"It's gone!!"

Someone in the camp shouted!

Yuwen Chengdu and You Hongda both changed color.

Even if a fire breaks out in the army, it can't spread so quickly!

The two men each displayed their martial arts skills, and one of them jumped onto the horse that You Hongda was riding.

Yuwen Chengdu stepped on the horse's head and You Hongda stepped on the horse's butt.

The two looked back and their faces suddenly changed drastically!

I saw a man in the distance carrying a huge military flag with a blazing fire on it. He was running around in the military camp, waving the flaming flag. Wherever he went, there was fire.

In addition, a strong wind was blowing, which added fuel to the fire. The rows of tents were blown by the wind and burned faster and faster!
It turned out that there were two other people, one was short and fat, the other was as strong as an iron tower. They were running around in the camp using their light skills, constantly pouring kerosene on the tent.

There were Sui soldiers coming to stop them, but these two were extremely ferocious.

The scattered soldiers in twos and threes couldn't even catch them!

So two of them poured oil, and one person lit a fire. The strong wind added fuel to the fire, and the entire camp was boiling. In an instant, black fog swallowed the sky, and the stars and the moon disappeared!
It's a fire burning the camps~!!
"It's on fire, and the food is on fire too!"

"All on fire!"

“Run~!!”

Thick smoke billowed straight into the sky, even darker than the dark clouds in the sky, blocking out the moonlight.

The Taikang Righteous Army and the Yingyang Prefecture Army were at the downwind side, all shrouded in thick smoke.

Amidst the shouts and cries of killing, there was also a cough!

After encouraging the new camp's troops to evacuate, Yue Sigui rushed out of the camp from the flank with three or four injuries. He kept coughing and looked at the fire behind him with shock.

He ran straight into the forest near Taikang and saw from afar a beautiful woman in white standing under a three-color light, looking out at the Sui army camp.

"Sigui, it's cooked well!"

Wang Bodang took a breath, wiped the sweat from his face and said with a smile: "With this burning, the Yingyangfu Army is finished."

"Even if it's a secret official, I'll have to look at you with new eyes this time."

"Not only did he instigate the attack on the new camp, but he also had the leisure to start such a massive fire!"

“Magnificent, magnificent!”

Shen Luoyan, who was standing beside him, also said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sigui."

If Yue Sigui was a person like You Hongda, he would definitely say with confidence that this was nothing.

But
He shook his head coldly, "Motivating the new camp is already my limit. If I don't lead them into the battle, their morale will be dispersed once the momentum wears off."

"I didn't light this fire."

Wang Bodang was startled: "Who is that?"

Yue Sigui looked at the fire and sighed, "Taiping Tianshi."

"what!"

Wang Bodang was even more shocked, and even the extremely calm military advisor beside him showed a strange look.

"I met Master Zhou in the camp. He said that the fire at Fuzi Mountain was related to Yuwen Chengdu, so he wanted to settle the score with him."

“You saw it too.”

"This Zhou Tianshi wants to settle the score by burning down Yuwen Chengdu's camp."

After hearing this, Wang Bodang praised him highly: "Master Zhou is a man of integrity. He cooked it well."

Shen Luoyan's eyebrows lit up: "This man is brave and resourceful. Has Sigui invited him?"

"Yes, but he declined."

"He even said that even if the military advisor used a honey trap, he wouldn't fall for it."

"How ridiculous!" Wang Bodang spat, but because he was in high spirits over the Sui army's conflagration, he spoke in a teasing tone. "Master Zhou has never seen Luo Yan, so he's talking big."

Yue Sigui didn't have the heart to talk, he just stared at the fire and said, "This Zhou Tianshi claims to be Yuwen Chengdu's creditor, and he also said..."

“He is also Mi Gong’s creditor.”

The three of them looked towards the burning Sui army camp, when suddenly a gust of wind blew.

Thick smoke rushed into their faces, and the three of them were choked and coughed.
