With Zeng Hongshen's strength, facing the enemies on the ship, one against two would not be a problem at the same level, and one against three would not be without a chance of winning, but one against four would be really difficult.
At the beginning, with his strong blood and superior fighting skills, he was barely able to handle it.
However as time goes by.
As the four people gradually became familiar with his fighting rhythm, and the two barbarian masters also improved themselves in the process and made up for the lack of combat experience, the situation slowly changed.
The initial changes started with Tianzi No. 9.
Although this place is in the wilderness, the place where they fought was on a river.
In this era, due to the insufficient level of development, most villages still prefer to live near rivers, and even many cities were built close to water sources.
Therefore, if you go down this river, there is a high probability that you will pass through villages or even towns.
But here was the territory of Dali, and the person they assassinated was a prince, not to mention that there were several great masters from the barbarians in their team.
Although the divine envoys of Mingyue Tower are not bad people, they are not good people either. Most of them do not kill innocent people indiscriminately because they feel it is unnecessary, rather than out of any good intentions.
Not to mention the three powerful foreigners.
It would be fine if the river only passed through a small village before they killed King Yu.
Human life in this era is not valuable, and untouchables are even more so.
Therefore, in order to prevent their identities from being exposed, it would not be a psychological burden for them to kill the witnesses.
However, it would be bad if you pass through a town or town where a large number of people gather.
Needless to say, if it is a city, facing the large army of Dali, even those who are strong in the second realm can only flee.
Although they can run rampant in those towns, with only seven people, no matter how fast the killing speed is, it is unrealistic to kill all the people in the town.
As long as a few people run out, their affairs will naturally be exposed.
Being suspected is not terrible. After all, there are many people who can be suspected of assassinating King Yu. It doesn't matter whether the suspicion is big or small.
But it would be different if there was substantial evidence.
They openly assassinated a prince in Dali. Regardless of whether they could escape the pursuit of the court, the forces behind them would probably suffer as well.
Don't underestimate the ability of the Da Li court.
Many people are just too lazy to do things, but not incapable.
Once the Dali court is operating at full capacity, as long as there is a trace of confirmable clues, it will be possible to dig out everything behind it.
That’s all for the envoys of Mingyue Tower.
An underground organization like Mingyue Tower has never relied on loyalty to recruit people, and those who join Mingyue Tower rarely feel any loyalty to Mingyue Tower.
After all, the biggest god-lord is secretive, so how can he expect the people below him to be loyal.
Therefore, these Mingyue Tower Divine Envoys were more worried about how to evade pursuit in Dali territory after the assassination of King Yu was exposed.
But the three strong foreigners were different.
Their roots are the forces behind them. As those with vested interests, they naturally need to pay attention to the forces they belong to.
Even though Dali is experiencing constant internal troubles, is it really true that it doesn’t even have the power to fight against the barbarians?
Apart from anything else, the 30,000 Northern Xinjiang Expeditionary Force stationed outside Dali's southern Xinjiang showed no signs of retreating yet.
King Yu is the general of Zhenguan in Northern Xinjiang. Once the news of his assassination spreads, the immortal army will not sit still.
Once the imperial court discovered the alien forces that took action, the peace talks between these forces would naturally fail.
By then, as long as the imperial court officially orders it, even if King Yu is lost, the Immortal Army can continue to send troops to these forces.
Even though the plan to assassinate King Yu was jointly formulated by all their forces, the dead Taoist friends were not dead to the poor Taoists. At that time, as long as the foreigners from other countries did not take action, they would never admit this.
Even if the Dali court could guess this, they would acquiesce.
At that time, as long as the Dali imperial court shows a hint of revenge and will never offend other forces, I believe that other foreign races will also choose to stand aside at this time.
Therefore, this battle must be fought quickly.
…
At the beginning, because of Old Man Tiancan's great reputation and demonstrated strength, the four of them were particularly careful when besieging him.
Not only Zeng Hongshen, they also did not seek merit at the beginning, but sought no faults.
In any case, the more you bully the less, as long as you don't get hurt, there's no problem even if the attack fails.
Therefore, at the beginning of the battle, it was more like a discussion than a fight.
Everyone is keeping their hands open, and if they can contribute five points, they will never use seven points. As long as the encirclement formation is not chaotic, they will carry out the siege step by step.
But after gradually becoming familiar with and adapting to Zeng Hongshen's fighting rhythm, everything was completely different.
Combat skills can improve one's own strength, but at the same level, no matter how much you improve, there is a limit.
Even though Zeng Hongshen is the top being among the innate experts, Tianzi No. 9 is also close to this level. In addition, with the help of three great masters who are weak but still in the innate realm, there is actually no such gap.
It's as big as I imagined.
Some of the four people who besieged him were actually frightened by the name of Old Man Tiancan.
But now, now that they are familiar with Zeng Hongshen's fighting rhythm, even though they are amazed by his superb fighting skills, his mystery in the hearts of the four people has gradually disappeared.
Coupled with the lack of time, the change of tactics finally began.
…
After crossing paths with Zeng Hongshen again, Tianzi No. 9 winked at another Mingyue Tower Divine Envoy.
The Tianzihao member who wielded the knife nodded slightly.
They are members of the same organization. Although they have not had much contact, coupled with the battle just now, they have developed a basic tacit understanding.
Although the other two barbarian masters did not have the same tacit understanding as them, they also roughly understood the signal Tianzi No. 9 would send to them next.
So the next moment.
Among the two people who were supposed to attack together, the Mingyue Tower Divine Envoy suddenly accelerated his speed, and with the scimitar in his hand, he struck at Zeng Hongshen with all his might.
But this time, he used a lot of force.
Zeng Hongshen, who had just turned into a round of attacks, was caught off guard by the fierce attack, but he still relied on his super high combat skills to react.
After avoiding an extremely dangerous gesture, he took advantage of the situation and stabbed that person.
