Chapter 84 The Attack Begins

The brigade marched out, the banners rustled, and its momentum was no less than an army.

When passing through the Sanhe sub-rudder, the third and 400 people in the sub-rudder were incorporated, so that the team expanded to about 2000 people.

That night, the Jianghe Gang arrived in Wuqing.

Qin Shuhuai, Chen Changting, Wei Huaizong, Lin Youming, the head of the White Tiger Hall, and Lin Tianyuan, the head of the Law Enforcement Hall, entered the Wuqing branch of the Giant Whale Gang and conspired with the top leaders of the Giant Whale Gang for two hours.

Just after midnight, more than [-] members of the Giant Whale Clan Wuqing sub-helm, under the cover of night, quietly withdrew from Wuqing and headed for Jinmen.

According to the plan, all the wharves on the north bank of the Wuqing line were handed over to the Jianghe gang, and the wharves on the south bank were also attacked by the Jianghe gang.The giant whale gang, Wuqing Fenrudder, went all out to assist the Jinmen Fenrudder, and combined the strength of the two rudders to attack the Caobang Wharf on the south bank of the Jinmen Canal.

Originally, the Giant Whale Gang and the Cao Gang were evenly matched, but now that the Jianghe Gang joined, the balance of strength has completely tilted.

The next step is to make a quick decision!

There are five large piers on the south bank of the Wuqing line of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Among them, the three piers of Heziwan, Tianshui, and Wuguishan are located in the upper, middle, and lower positions. The Cao Gang stationed heavy troops in these three places. In the event of an accident at the pier, reinforcements can be provided quickly.

As long as these three piers are captured, the remaining small piers will have insufficient troops.

The Cao Gang has a total of about [-] troops in Wuqing. Since they don't know the specific deployment, the Jianghe Gang can only judge that the opponent has at least [-] to [-] troops defending the three large piers and the small and medium piers nearby.

Therefore, we must be fast, attack with superior forces, and break down one by one before the opponents gather.

After deliberation, the Jianghe Gang decided that Lin Tianyuan would lead more than 400 people from the Law Enforcement Hall to attack Mount Wugui, Wei Zonghuai would lead more than [-] people from the Baihu Hall to attack Tianshui, Qin Shuhuai would lead the Qinglong Hall to attack Heziwan, and Chen Changting would lead the [-] people from the Sanhe Branch to attack Tianshui. The three to [-] people who came were sitting in the rear, ready to support at any time.

In addition, each hall is also equipped with thirty continuous crossbowmen.The continuous crossbow is fired in three bursts, and each continuous crossbowman carries thirty crossbow arrows.

Both Wei Zonghuai and Lin Tianyuan mobilized big boats and prepared to forcibly cross the river.

After Qin Shuhuai analyzed the terrain, he discovered that there was a stone bridge spanning both sides of the canal five or six miles away from Heziwan Wharf.The stone bridge is more than [-] meters long and more than ten meters high. It is a typical canal arch bridge in the Ming Dynasty. Large ships with masts seven or eight meters high can easily pass underneath.

Compared with crossing the river by boat, it was naturally easier to pass through the bridge, so he immediately pulled the team to the north bank of the stone bridge.

After a night of recuperation, the Jianghe gang's attack in Wuqing officially started when the sky was dawning.

Qin Shuhuai first let Leather Gou lead a hundred brothers named Jia through the stone bridge, and quickly occupied the other side, so that the follow-up troops could pass quickly.

Leather Gou led a hundred of his men across the stone bridge at high speed, and when he was about to reach the other side, he suddenly heard a sound of piercing through the air, and he felt bad, so he immediately shouted to his men, "Get down! "

The dense arrows poured down like raindrops, and some gang members who were too late to lie down were immediately made living targets and fell to the ground one after another.

A moment later, there was another volley. This time the opponent's archers adjusted their distance, and the arrows formed an obvious parabola. The landing point was calculated very delicately. At least half of them landed in the area where Jia Zifan's gang lay down.

Jia Zifan was also prepared to deal with bows and arrows. He brought a total of ten large shields, but it was still too few, and another seven or eight brothers were hit by arrows.

Leather Dog's face shuddered. Judging from the density of arrows fired in one volley, there were probably about fifty archers on the other side.There are so many archers alone, and the total defensive force may not be less than 200.It seems that the Cao Gang has already prepared and sent heavy troops to defend on the other side of the stone bridge.

Presumably the opposite side has already gone to ask for reinforcements. If they can't win immediately, they will be pressed against the bridgehead as soon as the reinforcements arrive.The bridge is too narrow, and the formation of your subordinates cannot be expanded, and you will definitely suffer in a fight.

The Cao Gang fired another seven or eight rounds of volleys. After Jia Zifan was prepared, everyone who could hide was hiding behind the big shield. They couldn't hide as much as they could, trying to huddle their bodies into a ball. Everyone spread out, so only casualties Eight or nine people were killed.

Seeing that the rain of arrows had stopped, Leather Dog ordered his men to advance slowly with the big shield on their backs.

Walking to the end of the bridge, a large group of gang members in black rushed up aggressively, blocked the position of the lower bridge, and firmly blocked the leather dog and his men on the bridge.

The two sides launched a fierce hand-to-hand fight.The white light of the knife, the cold shadow of the sword, the hysterical shouts mixed with heart-piercing wailing, the blood and the swaying figures intertwined, even Jiang Wu seemed to be dyed red.

The Cao Gang spread out in a fan shape, firmly occupying the head of the bridge, while Jiazifan was blocked on the bridge.

Leather Gou rushed forward with a long sword in his hand, and now he is at the first level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Under the urging of the powerful Yi Jin Jing Zhen Qi, the life-killing soul-chasing sword overflowed with cold light, and frantically harvested heads, almost He almost opened a gap by himself.

But at this moment, a strong warrior with double hooks rushed forward and blocked the leather dog.

"Good trick, boy, let me often come and meet you!"

After finishing speaking, Chang Dahuan raised his left hand, and the curved hook knife in his hand drew a white line, heading straight for the leather dog's neck.Leather Dog leaned forward immediately, and just dodged the knife, but saw the machete in the opponent's right hand attacking his waist, so he immediately used the sword to block.When the swords collided, sparks were thrown out, and the long sword in Leather Dog's hand vibrated and beeped continuously.

Leather Gou smiled coldly, it seemed that he had encountered someone in the Xuantong Realm.The flesh on his face twitched again, and the killing intent in his eyes suddenly burst.

He, Qin Shuhuai, can kill at the Foundation Establishment Realm and kill at the Mystic Passage Realm, but my dog ​​doesn't fall behind anyone!
I am better than him!One day he will be stronger than him!
The long sword rose suddenly, drawing a cold light from bottom to top, forcing Chang Dahuan to dodge sideways.The leather dog turned his wrist again, and the long sword slashed at Chang Dahuan's waist with the momentum of sweeping away thousands of troops. Surprised to see the long sword turned over suddenly, there was a gap between the double hooks, and it retreated like a spirit snake.

Chang Dahuan was a little surprised, but immediately spread out his two knives again, criss-crossing like shadows, and attacked the leather dog's head, chest, and abdomen at a dizzying speed.The double knives are yin and yang and double hooks. As the name suggests, one is yin and the other is yang, one is real and the other is false. The combination of false and real makes it difficult to distinguish which sword is a fake attack and which knife is a real cut.

The leather dog retreated step by step, but it was crowded behind him. There were brothers Jiazifan who were blocking the bridge everywhere. He couldn't help but struggle a little. Soon he was stabbed in the arm. When the opponent returned the knife, he used the curved edge of the knife Hook hooked away a piece of meat.

On the north bank of the stone bridge, Lai San'er was anxiously staring at the other end of the bridge. Through the thin river mist, he saw Jia Zifan's swaying and falling figure. People go up for reinforcements.

Qin Shuhuai said with a sullen face, "Jiazifan is where the elite of my church is. If I can't even take down a bridgehead, what use would I want him to be?"
