244: Who dares to fight me?
“Rumble, rumble, rumble…”
Just as Bru counted to one, the ground trembled slightly!
Everyone's gaze was focused on one spot: the Great Qin black dragon banner!
Under the moonlight, the black dragon banner was even darker than the night!
Lin Yue and the others showed joy! Sure enough, villains die from talking too much!
Bru's face, however, was incredibly grim.
“Shoot!” Bru roared!
He understood now why Lin Yue had talked so much today! He had been trying to stall for time!
But no matter who came, he would kill Lin Yue here today!
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
At his command, ten thousand arrows were fired!
Innumerable arrows rained down on Lin Yue and the others like a furious storm, coming from all directions. Arrows fell like rain, and Lin Yue and his companions had nowhere to hide!
Bru laughed wildly; he would soon have his revenge!
“Hahaha…ha…huh?” Bru's eyes widened!
“Quick, crouch down!” Lin Yue shouted. Da Huang and Zhao Yun’s warhorses were both Earth-grade warhorses and immediately lay down on the ground. The ordinary white warhorses were also hugged by their riders, who threw them down and pressed them tightly beneath their bodies!
Just as the arrow rain was about to fall, all four turned their backs and raised their shields!
A small, semi-circular defensive structure rose from the ground!
Lin Yue raised two Song Dynasty infantry side shields and placed them on top, and an indestructible safe house was finally formed!
“Thump, thump, thump!”
Innumerable arrows struck the shields, producing crisp sounds, playing a tune as rapid as a sudden downpour!
Lin Yue had already selected the shields from the game system store the moment they were surrounded, choosing the Song Dynasty infantry side shields, which offered a larger defensive area! There was a stand behind the shield, which could save some effort. For added sturdiness, he also chose the reinforced iron shields!
This was all in preparation for the moment negotiations broke down!
He was grateful that his network didn't lag at the last moment, otherwise, if even one of these ten shields was missing, they would all have died from a thousand arrows piercing their bodies!
“Thump, thump, thump!”
The heavy rain continued, and Lin Yue was very afraid.
He constantly prayed that reinforcements would arrive quickly, otherwise, once Bru led his cavalry to charge, their hemispherical defensive structure would roll around like a football!
The impact force of warhorses should not be underestimated; he did not want to be kicked to death like a ball!
“My Lord, what kind of shields are these? How are they so effective?” Xing Daorong turned his head and asked.
Lin Yue desperately held up the two large shields above and grumbled, “What time is it to be asking about this? Come help me!”
“Understood!” Xing Daorong said with a smile, rising to hold up the two large shields with ease!
Lin Yue panted, thinking, how could these shields not be good? Each one cost five hundred taels of silver in the system store! These ten shields cost him a total of five thousand taels of silver!
However, products from the system are always high-quality. These shields, apart from being expensive, had no other drawbacks!
But this life-saving money had to be spent when necessary, especially since he still had twenty-five thousand taels of silver—he couldn't spend it all, simply couldn't!
As Lin Yue just breathed a sigh of relief, he saw Xing Daorong's original two large shields constantly being pushed back by countless arrows. He instinctively stepped forward, propping up the two large shields, panting heavily!
“Thump… thump… thump…”
The arrow tune gradually became softer, far less fierce than the recent tempest.
“Kill!”
A heartening cry came, and Lin Yue finally breathed a sigh of relief!
That was the word 'kill' shouted in qin language!
It was the Qin Army!
When the tune finished, Xing Daorong carefully moved the shields outwards a bit and peeked out.
“My Lord! It’s a melee outside!” Xing Daorong said excitedly!
“Damn it, kill!” Lin Yue shouted, the iron turtle dismantled, the warhorses shook themselves and stood up again. The few of them mounted their horses and charged out!
“Kill!”
Only Xing Daorong remained. He looked at the shields with some reluctance, then tied them with ropes to his front and back, picked up the last two shields, holding one in each hand!
“Charge!” Xing Daorong suddenly ran forward!
He swung both shields simultaneously, and any Xiongnu Soldiers who stood in his way were swatted away by a shield!
Even the warhorses fell to the ground, whimpering softly.
Spears thrust towards Xing Daorong, but he did not dodge at all. The spear tips touched the shields, only producing a tiny spark, not even leaving a slight dent! Countless Xiongnu Cavalry surged towards him from all directions. Facing this situation where he was surrounded by enemies, Xing Daorong took a deep breath, held a shield in each hand, and spun around in place!
Countless Xiongnu Cavalry were sent flying, bloody and gruesome to behold.
Only a bloody arc remained on the ground, along with countless Xiongnu Soldiers groaning in agony.
The Xiongnu Cavalry were all dumbfounded; they had never seen such an opponent!
For a moment, they didn't dare to advance. If they took a hit from a shield, they feared not even a complete corpse would be left!
“Go!”
If the enemy won't come to me, I will go to the enemy!
Xing Daorong suddenly threw the shield in his right hand forward, and the shield flew rapidly!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The Song Dynasty infantry side shield struck down more than ten cavalrymen in succession before falling to the ground!
Seeing that Xing Daorong's right hand was empty, the Xiongnu Cavalry thought it was a golden opportunity and bravely charged straight at him!
Xing Daorong sneered, held a shield in each hand, protected his body with the shields, pushed off with his feet, lowered his head to hide behind the shields, and ran forward with all his might!
Only a pit deep enough to cover an ankle was left on the ground!
Wherever Xing Daorong went, Xiongnu Soldiers were thrown flying to both sides!
It wasn't until Xing Daorong saw the shield he had thrown that he stopped to pick it up. Then, holding a shield in each hand, he scanned the startled Xiongnu Cavalry around him and roared loudly:
“Xing Daorong is here! Who dares to fight me?!”
