Chapter 364: Chapter 360: Zhong Chuyan_1

The barbarians who were still outside the city attacking had become instantly chaotic upon seeing the arrival of the reinforcements.

Those who had already broken into the city started panicking, their formation promptly falling into disorder.

Wanyan Ha’shi, seeing the situation worsening, turned tail and ran with his guards, no longer caring about the people within the city.

Zhou Wuchang mounted a brilliant steed, accompanied by his senior disciple Zhou Hao and about a dozen guards, he led his team to charge into the crowd of enemies, slashing the foes with the long-handled blade in his hands.

This time, they brought over two thousand cavalry and over three thousand infantry, specifically striking just when Wanyan Ha’shi penetrated the city. They could assuredly rout the over seven thousand barbarians.

Sure enough, Wanyan Ha’shi, attacked on both sides, lost his fighting spirit instantly, fleeing with his large force.

Zhou Wuchang chose not to pursue them, but focussed on dealing with the remaining barbarian bandits.

Before long, the barbarians outside the city either died or fled, and those inside the city were also killed one by one led by Governor Zhang.

They then hastily had people clear the city gate, welcoming Daqian’s reinforcements into the city.

The Governor’s Residence was also being attacked by a team of barbarian bandits, with dozens of cavalrymen breaking open the residence gates and rushing in, attempting to plunder the governor’s family members, only to engage in intense combat with the guards and servants of the residence.

Yingbao, along with her younger brother Huzi, managed to knock down two barbarian bandits working together, yet the three of them also got injured in the process.

Madam Zhang also discarded her long gown, switched into a short suit, and fought desperately with a cleaver against the cavalrymen.

There were three or four guards around her, so she was unharmed.

The cook, an elder woman, took a pot of boiling oil and furiously splashed it towards a barbarian, causing him to shriek in pain.

Two older maids and several aged maidens each held sticks and pitchforks, and one even carried a stool, waving these towards the bandits.

But these elderly, weak women and children were hardly opponents to dozens of barbarian bandits, swiftly becoming worn and ragged, among them, two servants even lost their lives.

Right when several barbarian bandits surrounded Yingbao and the other two, swinging their blades downward, suddenly, a table-sized rock flew towards them, immediately striking one person sending him onto the ground dead.

The other few people were dumbfounded. Before they could react, they were knocked over by the incoming rocks.

Huzi and the others of the Zhang family stood astonished with wide-open mouths.

They saw Yingbao quiickly run towards a barbarian bandit, swinging her arm, a facial basin-sized rock flew out and directly hit the man on his waist.

This barbarian bandit instantly fell onto the ground, wailing loudly.

After Yingbao toppled a few more, the barbarians came to their senses and started screaming as they surrounded her.

Madam Zhang and the rest wouldn’t let them have their way, they all rushed up to attack.

And so, the battle situation gradually became balanced.

After that, another team rushed into the Governor Residence.

“Senior Brother! Second Brother!” Yingbao recognized Zhou Hao and Zhang Min at the lead and jumped in joy.

Zhou Hao and Zhang Min nodded to her without having time to ask anything, they picked up their blades and charged towards the dozens of barbarian bandits.

They also brought hundreds of soldiers to engage in a chaotic battle with the barbarians.

At that moment, Madam Zhang pulled Yingbao and a few children into the house to avoid accidental injury.

Inside the house, there were a good number of injured servants and guards, so Yingbao took out medical powder and pills from her bag to distribute to them.

Everyone watched Yingbao, all wanting to ask but stopping themselves.

Yingbao didn’t bother explaining the stone incident earlier, only busily cleaning up Huzi and her younger brother’s wounds.

The two kids had several scratches on them, with one deep cut on Jiang Wu’s arm exposing the bone.

Yingbao felt unbearable heartache, quickly cleaning up his wound, took out sutures to stitch the wound, then applied a layer of Wudingzhi and Injury Medicine Powder, and bandaged it up.

Huzi also had quite a few injuries, one of them on his back.

Luckily, he had worn a thick layer of cowhide under his clothes, otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Fortunately, they had all learned martial arts, and their ability to dodge was quick too, otherwise, the bandits’ sword would have taken Huzi’s head.

The two servants lying in the yard were the live examples of this, their heads had been lopped off by the barbarians.
