Chapter 349 Sudden Reinforcements
Before Chen Xue could think about it, several masked men in black climbed onto the courtyard wall.
"No, guard the door!"
Chen Xue hurriedly ran to the door with the slave in green. The guards haven't arrived yet. If they were to break through the door first, it would be chaos.
However, these masked men in black did not come down immediately. Instead, they occupied the courtyard wall, took off the bows and arrows on their bodies, and occupied high positions to draw their bows and prepare to shoot.
Facing this situation, Chen Xue also had a headache. With her strength, it would be difficult for a bow and arrow to hit her without being attacked by a sneak attack. But if the other party's people are allowed to occupy the high areas of the courtyard wall, it will be difficult for the guards.
Just when everyone was having a headache, an arrow was shot from nowhere and hit the vital part of the masked man in black. The other party's body fell from the courtyard wall, with unwillingness in his eyes.
He had just checked his surroundings to make sure there were no archers ambushing him, so he dared to stand on the courtyard wall.
Two more people climbed up, but as soon as they emerged, they were pierced by bows and arrows and fell down.
Although there were no deaths, their action was a sneak attack and they were seriously injured. The only outcome was to be abandoned here.
Chen Xue looked into the distance. On the roof, two black figures stood on the roof at some point. They seemed to be Lin Xiaofan's secret guards.
As these three people fell down, perhaps because the other party was afraid, no one climbed up the courtyard wall anymore.
The door was constantly being hit and was already crumbling.
However, most of the wounded in the Lin Mansion have gathered here, and everyone has a repeating crossbow in their hands.
They have seen the power of the repeating crossbow, its extremely fast shooting speed, and its extremely high accuracy. It can be said to be a sharp weapon.
Just thinking about the sixty or seventy well-trained killers outside, they still felt unsure, and the hands holding the crossbows were trembling slightly.
Not to mention them now, even in their heyday, I am afraid they would not be able to deal with killers who outnumber them.
Although timid, none of them backed down. Although this battle may lead to death, it is also an opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
"bump!"
With another loud noise, the door was knocked open, and several guards around him retreated.
"shooting!"
Chen Xue ordered.
Dozens of crossbow arrows were fired at the gate, but the opponent seemed to have expected it. The two people in front held two simple large shields. Although they were thick and difficult to use, they could block most of the arrows.
After a wave of volleys, only a few arrows passed through the gaps and shot into the black-clothed crowd, causing two or three casualties.
"kill!"
Taking advantage of the shooting gap, countless masked men in black rushed into the house. After the guards fired another round of shooting, there was a hand-to-hand exchange between the two sides, and blood was seen in an instant.
The green-clothed slave girl and Chen Xue rushed forward, and after getting rid of several enemies, they were tightly entangled.
Several secret guards joined the battlefield at some point and killed several masked men with sneak attacks, but they soon fell into a tight siege.
As for the injured guards, due to the disparity in numbers, some of them died quickly.
The entrance of the Yamen.
"Is that the residence of Magistrate Lin over there?"
Guang Wencheng heard the shouts of killing from all around and asked.
"Exactly."
One of the detectives nodded, and everyone's expressions turned ugly.
"Let's go get reinforcements."
Guang Wencheng spoke quickly.
Hearing the cry of killing, at least there were hundreds of people fighting in a melee. Unexpectedly, so many killers sneaked into the city unknowingly.
By the time everyone arrived, the battle in the courtyard was gradually coming to an end.
The guards were already injured, and coupled with the disparity in numbers, their defense line became as thin as paper.
If it weren't for a few secret guards and Chen Xue, they might have been defeated long ago.
Guang Wencheng led more than 20 people to join the battlefield, which made the originally one-sided situation even more stalemate, but everyone still had the upper hand.
"Brothers, kill all these people!"
The leading masked man in black killed the guard in front of him and spoke with excitement on his face.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xiaofan left just a few people to guard the house, and this operation went extremely smoothly. Now that most of the city guards were held back, he was confident of escaping unscathed.
The masked men around them became more and more courageous as they fought, and the three hundred taels of white silver seemed to have been in their hands.
"Wenyue, this is not the way to go. You take Li Xiaoqian out of the back door first and go to Zuixian Tower to hide. If I am not wrong, the purpose of this trip is to repeat the crossbow, and they should not pursue him."
Chen Xue helped Wen Yue block a move and said.
Lin Xiaofan has the backing of the Zhao family and the Jian family. If he touches him, he will be in trouble with these two families, so the families in the capital will not be stupid enough to attack Lin Xiaofan.
As for the families in Qingzhou County, they had no reason to deal with Lin Xiaofan.
After thinking about it, the other party could only come for Lian Nu.
In the current situation, Lian Nu definitely couldn't protect him. Even if the city guards came over, they couldn't stop all the masked men. They could only save their lives first.
"Okay. Xiaoxue, you should get out earlier."
After Wen Yue hesitated for a moment, he nodded slightly.
She is not very strong, so she is just a hindrance here.
"Miss, let's leave quickly, we won't last long here."
The slave in green clothes was extremely anxious as she saw the number of guards getting smaller and smaller.
There are several masters in this group of masked men, and even she can't get any advantage if they join forces. Once you're dragged down, you really can't get away.
Looking at Wen Yue leaving, Chen Xue's eyes were a little more entangled.
Do you want to leave?
If the fight continues, she may also be in danger.
But if they don't fight, those repeating crossbows will be taken away.
While hesitating, a shout of murder suddenly came from outside.
"Wait a minute, reinforcements are coming again!"
Chen Xue froze, with a hint of joy on her face.
"Boss, someone is coming. I heard hundreds of people."
A masked man ran from the door.
"How can it be!"
The leading masked man asked.
"Did you hear that right? There are currently no more than a hundred city guards in Degao Town."
Lin Xiaofan took most of the city guards and guards out of the city to suppress the bandits. Those who stayed behind were also restrained. How could there suddenly be hundreds more people now?
Could it be that they are from the big families in the city? Given their peeing habits, I’m afraid all of them have their doors closed now.
"Boss, I heard you right, at least hundreds of people!"
Seeing that the other party didn't believe it, the masked man suddenly became more anxious.
"Quick, bring a few repeating crossbows and prepare to retreat!"
The leading masked man no longer hesitated. If he didn't leave now, they might all fall here later.
The scene changed instantly. Many guards picked up the repeating crossbows on the ground and shot at the fleeing masked people.
"Hurry up and chase them, don't let them run away!"
Chen Xue reacted and hurriedly ordered.
Reinforcements are not far away, and they can completely stop these masked men.
However, she still had some doubts in her heart. Where did Lin Xiaofan transfer this group of people from?
She has stayed in Degao Town for a while, and she has a good feel for the people here.
