  "Awesome!"

  Peng Fei's eyes were wide with excitement as he charged forward, brandishing his long spear.

  The long spear he used was made of pure iron, and it must have been Yang Qian's private goods.

  Just then, a pirate rushed out of the thatched hut, holding a bloody steel knife in his hand, with blood beads still dripping down from it. Inside the thatched hut, however, was a deathly silence. The mud at the entrance was stained red with blood. Even with one's heel, one could imagine what had happened inside the thatched hut.

  Peng Bo went up and shot one gun.

  "Ah!"

  "Pffft!"

  A sharp spearhead pierced into the pirate's left ribcage.

  The spearhead protruded directly from the pirate's right ribcage, a crimson patch spreading around it.

  "Pffft!"

  Peng Bo gave a fierce shot, and the pirate was instantly spun 360 degrees on the spot. He looked at Peng Bo beside him in a daze, as if he couldn't believe that he had been killed with just one shot. Finally, with a sense of unwillingness, he lowered his head to look at the bullet hole in his body, and after a long time, he slowly fell to the ground.

  Other warriors rushed past Peng's side, searching for pirates to kill. Apparently, the pirates did not expect the guards to arrive so quickly and fiercely. They were busy burning, killing and looting, their troops scattered all over, basically fighting alone. As a result, the guards' warriors, in groups of three or five, quickly surrounded them. The long spears stabbed out simultaneously, instantly ending them.

  "It's just like training!"

  "It's much easier than knocking down an instructor!"

  Some new warriors excitedly shared their experience of killing enemies with their companions.

  The coordination between each other greatly boosted the morale of these new warriors. Those who were slaughtered by the pirates were their parents and relatives, they were naturally furious and full of momentum. The continuous successful attacks also made them confident in the victory of the battle. For the new warriors, the confidence in the first battle was extremely rare. These pirates happened to have run into the muzzle.

  Zhang Zhun also rushed forward, with only a trident in his hand.

  The purpose of this battle was mainly to train new soldiers, he didn't mean to kill all the enemies, so as long as there were guards around him, he wouldn't take action, but stood by and watched the new warriors and pirates fight, finding their shortcomings, and improving them in subsequent training. Time waits for no man, there are too many masters in this world.

  For his own training results, Zhang Zhun is still very confident. Indeed, the new warriors performed extremely bravely in this battle. It was probably the result of ambushing the pirates that night, which greatly boosted everyone's morale and made the new warriors unafraid of the pirates. In front of them were a few scattered pirates carrying bundles from the thatched hut, only to find three more guards standing before them, who didn't have time to resist before being pierced by sharp spears.

  Training three thousand times every day, and the effect is still excellent.

  Peng Bo led the charge at the front, with Zhang Quan following behind, controlling the entire battlefield situation.

  "Peng Bo, don't pull away from yourself and your companions!"

  "Don't fight separately!"

  Zhang Zhun shouted at Peng Bo.

  This is a melee, a pure melee, neither the pirates nor the guards can form a formation. However, there are still too many drawbacks to fighting alone, and under certain circumstances, it is still necessary to fight in coordination. Three-man teams and five-man teams have already reached the limit of coordinated combat.

  "Whoosh!"

  Suddenly, a sharp arrowhead whizzed past.

  "Pffft!"

  The vanguard warrior was caught off guard and fell to the ground with an arrow wound.

  The other guards rushed to the side of the thatched hut in surprise.

  "Whoosh!"

  The sharp arrowhead whizzed again.

  "Pffft!"

  A warrior of the Imperial Guard trying to dodge, shot down by an arrow.

  "Be careful!"

  Zhang Quan let out a low roar.

  The accurate and ferocious arrowhead made Zhang Zhun's heart skip a beat.

  Among these pirates, there is actually such a high-level archer!

  What kind of people are they? Where did they come from? Why are they willing to risk their lives for Wang Shixin? A string of questions flooded Zhang Zhun's mind. It must be known that cultivating an archer is not a simple matter, without three or four years of cruel training, it is impossible to accurately hit fast-moving targets. In fact, truly skilled archers are almost all immersed in it for their entire lives.

  However, the movement speed of that guard soldier just now was actually very fast, yet he couldn't dodge the arrow. It can be seen that the enemy's archery skills are excellent. What's more deadly is that Zhang Zhun took one look at the position of the arrows on the two guard soldiers and knew that they were beyond salvation. In other words, as soon as the opponent made a move, he would take the lives of the two guards. Accurate and ruthless, this was Zhang Zhun's evaluation of that pirate archer.

  "Stay here and don't move, I'll go take a look."

  Zhang Zhun made a gesture to Peng Bo and quietly sneaked out of the thatched cottage.

  From the direction of the arrow's trajectory, this pirate archer should be hiding in a southeast direction. Zhang Zhuo quietly walked over from the thatched hut, carefully looking around, but didn't find his opponent. He calmly waited for a moment, concentrating and listening carefully.

  "Whoosh!"

  Suddenly, the sound of the arrowhead piercing the air came again.

  "Pffft!"

  Across from Zhang Zu, a guard soldier fell to the ground.

  A sharp arrowhead had directly pierced his left chest, and it was clear that he couldn't survive.

  Third life!

  Zhang Quan is furious!

  The enemy's arrow also exposed his position.

  He is hiding behind the woodpile!

  Maojia Village is close to Laoshan, and it's very convenient to collect firewood. Yangjia Village's salt business requires purchasing a large amount of firewood from Maojia Village, so the people in Maojia Village are very enthusiastic about collecting firewood. Almost every household has a huge thatched grass pile next to their house, some even as big as half a basketball court. As a result, these thatched grass piles became a good hiding place for the enemy.

  Zhang Zhun suddenly exerted his strength and darted over like a cheetah.

  His footsteps immediately startled the enemy behind the haystack!

  A sharp and pitch-black arrowhead suddenly appeared in Zhang Zhun's pupils.

  Then there was a gaunt and ferocious face with an icy gaze.

  Draw your bow!

  Full moon!

  "Ah!"

  Just as the enemy was about to release the bowstring, Zhang Zhun swung out his three-edged spear!

  "Hah!"

  "Ah!"

  Three-edged stabs into the enemy's throat.

  The enemy simultaneously released their bowstrings, and arrows whizzed out.

  At the moment when the enemy was pierced by three prongs, the finger inevitably shook slightly, and as a result, the arrowhead deviated slightly.

  "Hah!"

  The arrowhead brushed past Zhang Zhun's shoulder and flew by.

  Bang!

  Zhang Zhun last time was a kick, and the enemy fell to the ground.

  The enemy's archery was really too ruthless, and Zhang Zhun didn't dare to be careless at all. If his movements were slightly slower just now, he would have been the first to be shot. He kicked the enemy's bow far away with one foot, and at the same time kicked away the quiver on his back. It wasn't until then that Zhang Zhun discovered something strange about this enemy - in such weather, he was actually wearing a hat!

  "Peng Bo, all clear, proceed with caution!"

  Zhang Quan yelled loudly.

  Peng Bo and others finally breathed a sigh of relief, came out from their hiding place, and continued to search forward.

  Zhang Zhun didn't pay much attention to the other pirates, and was certain that this fierce pirate archer had already died. He followed behind Peng Bo and the others as they continued on their way. This time, Zhang Zhun's mood seemed somewhat heavy. This pirate archer had taken out three of the guards with just one shot - if the other pirates were also this formidable, things would be dire indeed.

  Fortunately, such a powerful pirate did not appear again. Peng Bo and his men continued to fight their way forward, and the pirates they encountered could only resist for a few moments before being stabbed to death by the swarming warriors. Roughly estimated, on this route alone, Peng Bo had already killed nearly ten pirates. Zhang Zhun closely monitored the surroundings. The several archers mentioned by Peng Bo's brothers did not appear.

  Zhang Zhun inferred that it was very likely that the pirate archer from earlier was too powerful, killing too many people, which led Peng Botang and his brothers to mistakenly believe that there were multiple archers among the pirates. To be honest, it seemed like Zhang Zhun had never seen an archer as fierce as the one from earlier. If he hadn't gone into battle himself, he feared that the guard team would have been overwhelmed. The key to his ability to defeat the archer lay in the powerful latent advancing skills he had trained for many years in his past life, which allowed him to remain undetected by his opponent. If he had been discovered by the archer beforehand and had tried to open up some distance, Zhang Zhun wasn't even sure if he could have dodged the arrows.

  The opponent's arrowhead is really too accurate and too ruthless.

  It's really rare to have such a character among pirates.

  Fortunately, he has been killed and can no longer shoot arrows.

  On the left, Yang Qianqiang and his men should also have clashed with the pirates, with cries of killing continuing. Judging from the footsteps, they shouldn't have encountered any resistance. On the right, Yin Fengyi's team was also entangled with the pirates, and judging from the situation, it should be going well too. In front of him, Li Jiaxi had already infiltrated deep into Majiatun.

  The troops advanced smoothly, and Zhang finally let out a sigh of relief.

  Suddenly, a pirate rushed out from the corner of the thatched hut next door, attempting to launch a sneak attack on Zhang Zhun. His weapon was a curved knife. The curved knife swept across, attempting to cut Zhang Zhun's waist in two. Zhang Zhun raised his trident and stretched out his hand to block the knife, then slid forward, attempting to stab into the opponent's chest, cleanly and efficiently finishing him off.

  Unexpectedly, the pirate's movements were quite agile, and he didn't cut Zhang Zhun with his knife. He immediately retracted his blade and retreated, at the same time using both legs to propel himself forward in a swift motion towards Zhang Zhun. Judging from his actions, it seemed that he wanted to knock Zhang Zhun down to the ground all at once. Using such wrestling-like moves in battle was truly rare.

  Zhang Zhun was also slightly surprised. This pirate, how come he reacted so quickly? It seemed like he had a lot of combat experience. He didn't dare to be careless and hastily dodged to the side while fiercely pushing the enemy's back. The pirate, under the influence of inertia, suddenly charged forward with too great an amplitude and couldn't pull back.

  However, the pirate's reaction was still astonishing to Zhang Zhun. He saw that just as he was about to fall to the ground, he could still turn his body around and raise the curved knife in his hand to block Zhang Zhun's next attack behind him.

  "Pffft!"

  The pirate finally fell to the ground.

  He immediately sprang up and pounced on Zhang Zhun again.

  "This pirate is even more ferocious than a black leopard!"

  Zhang Quan furrowed his brow in secret, finding this pirate's identity increasingly strange.

  This pirate is so formidable, it's his first time encountering him, and Rubenke can't compare with him.

  The more ferocious the pirate was, the calmer Zhang Zhun became. The three-edged spear in his hand didn't make any big moves. He really wanted to see what other tricks the opponent had up their sleeve. If he could figure out where the opponent came from, that would be even better. However, Zhang Zhun soon discovered that this idea was unrealistic. This pirate had already gone completely berserk, disregarding his own life and launching a fierce and fearless attack!

  "Ah!"

  The curved knife hacked over again with ferocity.

  The pirate rushed up and was extremely ferocious!

  Zhang Zhun thrusts his spear upwards with three swift jabs!

  "Hah!"

  The triangular blade darted in front of the curved knife and accurately pierced the pirate's chest.

  The pirate's actions came to an abrupt halt. His curved blade was less than half a foot away from Zhang Zhun.
