Chapter 58 Reinforcements(1/2)
"People...oh, to the hostages, they, I..."
The smell of blood was so close that Ma Wenjing was like a child, unable to speak a complete sentence.
The other soldiers guarding the city were also trembling, looking at Li Fei with fear, but no one dared to say "urinary urgency" anymore.
To sum it up in one sentence, these people were all suppressed by Li Fei.
Li Fei had no choice but to remind: "The hostages are Mrs. Qiu and Qiu Yubao."
Ma Wenjing nodded sheepishly. He had read thousands of books and knew history books very well. He knew that many famous people in the world had evil intentions and killed people while talking and laughing.
What he saw in the book and what he actually witnessed were really two different things, and he was confused.
After ordering people to bring Qiu Yubao and Qiu to the tower, Ma Wenjing looked at Li Fei and asked, "Mr. Chen, what should we do next?"
Li Fei found it a bit funny that such a person was involved in bringing down the arrogant Qiu family. Qiu Tian asked how he could survive in the world with dignity if he saw him like this.
Li Fei pointed out: "Threaten Qiu Tianwen with the lives of these two people. They are two close relatives of Qiu Tianwen. Naturally, he would not dare to act rashly."
This was originally planned before. Ma Wenjing lost his sense just now and forgot to clean it up for a while. Now that he was reminded, he no longer hesitated.
Pushing Qiu Yubao and Qiu to the top of the city, the torches illuminated their faces.
Ma Wenjing shouted down: "Qiu Tianwen, have you seen clearly? These are your wife and son. If you are sensible, surrender obediently, otherwise they will accompany you to hell."
Qiu Yubao cried and shouted: "Dad, don't let her threaten you. Come up and kill them all. The child will die without regrets."
Seeing this, Mrs. Qiu couldn't help but sigh. She knew her husband. If her son begged for mercy, then her husband would definitely order an attack on the city. If her son wanted to die, her husband would hesitate.
Her son was useless, and she had no choice but to ask her husband not to stay here for a long time, and to leave quickly with the five hundred Qiu family troops. There must be a place in the world, and she could just hide her strength and bide her time and wait for an opportunity to come back for revenge.
Qiu Tianwen felt a pain in his heart when he heard his son's cry. His eldest son was dead, and he was left with such a useless son. If he died, there would probably be no successor in his lineage.
Qiu Tianwen has two brothers. They had a feud in the early years and have not interacted with each other for many years. One is an official in Rentian Mansion and the other has disappeared. Now that the main family is weak and may be in danger of destruction, then these two branches are from the Qiu family.
hope.
He was caught in a dilemma in his heart, between his son and wife, and revenge.
He really didn't know how to choose. Others were his subordinates and couldn't help him choose.
Ma Wenjing stood on the top of the city and watched Qiu Tianwen's reaction nervously. The opponent had siege equipment and was obviously well prepared. Once the order was given to attack the city, they would not be able to defend it with their little soldiers.
Ma Wenjing couldn't help but look back at Li Fei, and found that he was squatting on the city wall, holding a knife in one hand, closing his eyes and taking a nap, seemingly not taking the threat outside the city seriously.
"Mr. Chen, what should we do next? We can't keep delaying it like this."
Li Fei opened his eyes and said with a smile: "If you don't delay like this, you still want to fight him to the death, but you still can't succeed. Mr. Ma, just pretend to him that the snake is gone. Reinforcements will be here soon."
Ma Wenjing said doubtfully: "Reinforcements? Where did we get the reinforcements?"
Li Feidao: "Don't say it. If we say it, reinforcements may not come."
After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again to conserve his energy.
Ma Wenjing shook his head and smiled bitterly. He didn't know what kind of medicine this young man was selling, but since the other party said that reinforcements would arrive, this was somewhat of a hope for everyone.
Keeping Li Fei's instructions in mind, Ma Wenjing braced himself up and negotiated with Qiu Tianwen below.
After much talk, both sides refused to let go. Qiu Tianwen insisted that he let him go, while he insisted that Qiu Tianwen enter the city alone.
It lasted until about one o'clock in the morning. Ma Wenjing was cold and sleepy, as were Qiu Tianwen and his Qiu Jiajun.
Li Fei opened his eyes, and Shi Shiran stood up from the ground, walked to Ma Wenjing casually, and said with a smile: "Now is the perfect time."
Ma Wenjing was confused and asked: "When is the time?"
Li Fei did not answer his question, but raised the long knife in his hand and looked at Qiu Yubao with an unkind expression.
"Mr. Chen, what do you want to do?" Qiu Yubao asked in a trembling voice.
Although they only met once, he still remembered Li Fei, especially Wu Song who was following Li Fei, and he was even more impressed.
Li Fei chuckled and said, "For no other reason, I want to lend you your head."
"you……"
Before he could finish his words, Li Fei chopped off his head with a knife.
This had been planned a long time ago. The woman Li Fei didn't bother to kill, but Qiu Yubao was just right.
Li Fei held his head in one hand and threw it toward Qiu Tianwen.
The head hit Qiu Tianwen not far in front of him, and rolled forward for a while before stopping. His eyes were wide open, staring at his father.
Qiu Yubao died with eyes closed. Qiu Tianwen was furious and pointed at the city head with one finger.
"Fire arrows and shoot them to death."
The soldiers beside him received the order, took a step back, waved the command flag in their hands, and at the same time the drums sounded.
The archers of the Qiu family army advanced a few steps, each took out their divine arm crossbows, and fired at the defenders on the top of the city.
Some soldiers did not react and were shot to death by crossbow arrows.
Li Fei had already lowered his head and hid under the city wall to avoid a wave of arrows. Ma Wenjing followed suit and squatted beside him.
Ma Wenjing asked dissatisfied: "What on earth do you want to do?"
Li Fei said calmly: "Of course we will provoke him and then ask him to order an attack on the city. Our reinforcements will arrive soon."
Ma Wenjing looked down through the observation port on the wall and saw the Qiu Army's archers below the city still firing crossbows, and hundreds of infantrymen carrying ladders rushing towards the city wall.
The city wall in Lianhua County is only more than three meters high, and ordinary people can climb up to the top of the city in a dozen breaths using a ladder.
Ma Wenjing tried his best to look into the distance. It was dark in the distance, and no trace of reinforcements could be seen.
Ma Wenjing asked in a deep voice: "Where are the reinforcements? I didn't see anything. The Qiu family's infantry is about to climb up. What should we do now?"
Li Fei said calmly: "Don't worry, the reinforcements will arrive soon. We just need to let the soldiers hold on for a while."
Ma Wenjing looked at the soldiers hiding nearby and said in despair: "If we expect them to defend the city, we might as well commit suicide."
As the infantry leaned the ladder against the city wall, and then two infantrymen held the ladder down, and the other infantrymen held weapons in their hands and struggled to climb up, the archers stopped firing crossbows.
"It's over, it's all over."
Ma Wenjing sat slumped on the ground, no longer ambitious.
Li Fei stood up suddenly and shouted at the soldiers: "What are you doing, waiting to die? Do you think they will let you go? Don't be delusional. They will not only kill you, but also kill all your family members."
Steal all your property."
As he spoke, Li Fei opened the box placed by the wall, picked up a stone inside, and threw it down the wall with all his strength.
A scream of "Ah" was heard from under the wall, and the stone accurately hit the infantryman's shoulder, causing him to fall from the ladder.
Hearing the screams, the soldiers guarding the city regained some sense in their hearts and felt that it turned out that the Qiu family's army was not invincible. It turned out that they were also made of flesh and blood.
If that's the case, then there's nothing to be afraid of, just go for it.
They cheered up one after another, or picked up stones or collected sharp objects, and threw them at the climbing infantry.
In this case, the infantrymen who came up had nowhere to hide and were knocked off the ladder one after another.
After all, Qiu Jiajun was still well-trained. After a cup of tea, someone finally climbed up to the top of the city.
Among them, a big man with triangular eyes was the bravest. His eyes were red at this time. He came up and chopped a man to death with his waist knife, and kicked the man off the city wall with his feet.
Triangle Eyes looked around and locked his gaze on Li Fei.
This is the man who killed the second young master and deserves to be killed the most!
Li Fei felt the gaze of the triangular eyes, but he didn't care at all. He stretched out a palm and silently recited a spell in his mouth, and the dark element blade formed on his palm.
The triangular eyes killed two city defenders blocking the way and rushed towards Li Fei.
He had just rushed six steps away when he heard a hiss and a slender black blade sliced across his neck.
Sanjiang's darting steps suddenly stopped, a thin line of blood appeared on his neck, and he touched the torn wound with his hand, and then he fell to the ground.
Li Fei did not stop, and then recited the spell to summon the skeleton.
The sound of the curse stopped, and a black mist surged in front of him, engulfing his entire body.
The black mist dissipated, and six skeleton warriors appeared in front of Li Fei. Unlike the skeleton soldiers, these skeleton warriors were more durable, faster, and more flexible.
A skeleton warrior looks very different, holding a black sickle in his hand, almost two meters long, and looks very scary.
Six skeleton warriors formed a fan-shaped semicircle to protect Li Fei, and Ma Wenjing happened to be within his protection range.
As soon as the Qiu family's infantry rushes to the wall, it will be a one-sided massacre. Those soldiers are no match for them.
Naturally, Li Fei didn't care. He condensed black flame bullets in his hand and threw them towards the crowd. As a result, people on both sides were blown away, and the unlucky ones fell under the city wall.
Or the body is ignited by the demonic flames, and they run away screaming, which can be described as extremely tragic.
Under the city wall, Qiu Tianwen looked at the brothers who were dying one after another, feeling sad in his heart. Suddenly he heard a violent noise coming from the distance.
The sound was very familiar to him. It was the sound of horse hooves, and there were quite a few of them.
Qiu Tianwen screamed: "No, it's the cavalry. Everyone, come back quickly, the archers will respond."
The soldier received the order and was about to wave the flag, but as soon as the flag was raised, an arrow hit him between the eyebrows.
