The city is fading away.

The defeated generals are driving into the dark night.

By the time they left, they had destroyed all the boats on the dock that had no time to take them away.

There are no pursuers in the back.

It's safe for the time being.

But such temporary safety, like the panting of pigs and sheep before slaughter, is meaningless.

The tense nerves of the fanatics gradually relaxed.

There is also more time to think about the reasons for failure.

Since they are the most rigid believers, they will not admit that the "true God" they worship is inferior to the "false god" worshipped in the temple of boxing.

Elder brother Luo Xinglong, who has led them in Qianyuan city for many years, is also very wise and will never make mistakes.

As for their own faithfulness, there is no flaw. They are all good men willing to die for the God of machinery and steam.

Then, there is only one reason for the explosion of the steam cannon and the failure of this magnificent incident.

More and more eyes full of suspicion, vigilance and even hostility turn to the direction of GUS and grey.

The crazy believers, covered with smoke, dust and bloodstains, are like wounded wolves, full of nervous distrust. They huddle in the dark, staring at the "son" and "daughter" under the lights, whispering and whispering.

"Say, are they really the son and the daughter?"

"Is there something wrong?"

"If it's really the" Saint son "and" Saint daughter ", why didn't they show any magic power in today's World War I, and even the steam cannon exploded?"

"That's to say, they beat back all the boxers in Chijin town in the deep mountains and forests, and even blew up the priests in the temple of boxing? Why didn't they fire a single shot at such a critical moment today? "

"It's very strange, it's very strange!"

"Don't be fake. It's a trick played by the temple of the God of boxing. It's deliberately sending two fake" Sons "and" daughters "to our door to steal our secrets and tempt us to start things ahead of time?"

"It's possible, it's very possible. It's said that their uncle is the priest of the temple of boxing, or the younger martial brother of high priest Luotian!"

Dangerous rumors, like snakes in the dark.

The eyes of more and more crazy believers are shining like beasts.

They may not really believe the "legend", but the demoralized disabled soldiers who are full of confusion and panic and can't see the direction clearly need a place to vent.

Finally, someone could not hold his breath and stood up.

There's a leader, there's a second one, a third one and a tenth one, and the zealots are like zombies, staggering towards Gus and grey.

The two brothers and sisters also smelled the unknown smell in the air, and they were shocked.

Andre, who is in charge of the command of the fleet, shouts from the mast, yelling at these crazy believers to retreat.

But he was just the commander of the small detachment who seized the dock. There were not many confidants who really believed in him.

Luo Xinglong died suddenly, and did not give the command of the whole Qianyuan city steam army to anyone. Now, there are several leaders in the fleet who are similar to Andre, and many of the leaders of the defeated army are lost in the city. They are scattered soldiers without leaders. They just want to vent their fear and anger, and they don't want to listen to anyone's orders.

Just as the flotilla was like a overturned powder keg, a shrill whistle came from the front.

Three scarlet lanterns were raised from the head ship - the signal of "enemy attack ahead"!

The defeated soldiers, who are still in shock, squint their eyes and look forward. They are surprised. It's like smashing the tianlinggai and pouring in a ladle of biting ice water!

Although the night has come.

But the lights are bright ahead.

I don't know when a fortress full of torches stood up on the river!

The fortress is based on dozens of large ships, which are locked by chains with thick and thin arms, and on which wooden boards are built. The wooden boards are smeared with mud and filled with sandbags. They are both light and fire-resistant. It is impossible to break through the fortress, no matter the fire oil or the chain crossbow.

The fortress is full of soldiers. Behind the solid shield, there are countless arrows. Although the God of boxing despises weapons, it's very good to deal with the heretics who worship mechanical demons and steam demons, and occasionally use bows and arrows to fight poison.

Shuishangchengzhai occupies the middle of the river. The river channels left on both sides are extremely narrow, and a large number of sandbags, iron chains and thick tree trunks are sunk, which are tightly blocked.

On both sides of the river, hundreds of torches were set on fire, and countless archers lined up to kill.

Once the fleet is ready to bypass the water fortress and walk on both sides of the river, a large number of ships will be entangled by the debris of the silted River and become hedgehog like targets.

Up and down the river, there was a sudden sense of killing. The escape route to the South turned into a fatal trap to the hell.

"We are in the trap!"

Andre and the defeated soldiers finally responded.

No wonder high priest Luotian is not in a hurry to kill them.

It turned out that such an ambush had been set up on the river.

If we say that when they were in Qianyuan City, the core believers of the mechanical and steam religion could break through the encirclement, escape to the deep mountains and forests, or dress up and disperse among the people, causing great trouble to the screening and arrest of the temple of boxing.

So now, they are willing to gather together, in the river before the village, after the shop, is no way to heaven, nowhere!

For a moment, the whistle sounded from the first boat to the last boat, and all the boats were hung with red lanterns "ready for battle". But the crazy believers under the red light, even if they still had the courage to fight, had completely lost the hope of victory.

"There's no hope. It's all over. We can't escape!"

"High priest Luotian has calculated everything. We are finished!"

"God of steam, why is this so? Why do you not give us the last hope when you have given us enlightenment?"

Many crazy believers are kneeling on the ground, howling and wailing.

There are also some red eyed guys who continue to glare at Gus and grey, and seem to want to reprimand that their two fake "son" and "daughter" lead us to such a desperate situation.

However, when a crazy believer really jumped on Gus's two brothers and sisters, Gus was always silent and kicked away.

The boy didn't know where he got the strength. He kicked a cracked voice in the other side's chest, and almost didn't kick the crazy believer down the river.

Then, in the eyes of many crazy believers, Gus pulled out his "Kuroshio" triple heavy Vulcan gun from the basket behind him, inch by inch.
