Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Crisis in the Shadows
Mu Shang was in a hurry, and waved his hand to send someone to support, but was stopped by Shen Lanying, "Don't worry, they just changed formations." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Although the team of eleven people was scattered, it was divided into two parts in an orderly manner. The spearman and the swordman are in the center, and the shield-bearer is on both wings. The Nanban people only cared about rushing forward, and they didn't have time to care about the side, so they were attacked by the Mufu soldiers in both directions.
It is no exaggeration to say that every time a soldier in Mufu swings a knife, it is a human life.
"Lined up, they're coming towards us. Mu Shang commanded.
Dozens of Nanban soldiers who broke through passed through the separated Mandarin Duck Formation, and only about twenty people remained. Because the number of people was small, the Mufu soldiers who were on standby found that these Nanban soldiers were protecting one of the people in the middle and rushed out. That man was wearing much more ornate armor than the others, and at a glance he knew that he was the leader of the team.
And at this moment, Shen Lanying really believed that the person opposite was a novice. are already running for their lives, and they have to wear private customized armor to look so different, isn't this looking for death?
Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king.
Just as Shen Lanying was about to give an order, the sound of arrows leaving the string suddenly sounded behind her. She subconsciously turned around, only to see Zheng'a Liangyin slowly put down the longbow in her hand, with an indifferent look on her face, as if nothing had happened.
Shen Lanying was shocked, and when she turned her head to look at the other side, she found that the people who ran towards them earlier were already in chaos. The leader in the middle fell to the ground, a sword through the throat, to be precise, and then nailed to the ground.
"Who asked you to shoot an arrow!" Shen Lanying turned her head to look at Ah Liangyin, and for the first time there was anger in her eyes.
Ah Liangyin looked at her with a surprised expression, "That person's armor is very gorgeous, he looks like a leader, don't you kill him?"
Shen Lanying smiled suddenly, her voice was so cold that she felt like she was in an ice cellar, and repeated Ah Liangyin's sentence, "That person has gorgeous armor and looks like a leader...... Don't you catch them alive?"
Ah Liangyin was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head, "I'm sorry, I was reckless." ”
Heh, recklessly, you really make excuses for yourself!
Shen Lanying ignored her, turned her head and continued to look at the chaos in front of her, but her heart suddenly had no bottom, she found that her previous bad premonition was eighty percent true.
At this time, a subtle voice suddenly reached Shen Lanying's ears, "Lanying, don't worry, I'm here." ”
The person who transmitted the sound was Xuan Ling, and when Shen Lanying looked at her, Xuan Ling handed her a confident smile. There is no doubt that Shen Lanying can see the problem, and Xuan Ling can naturally see it.
Shen Lanying's eyes suddenly lit up, yes, why did she forget that she still had Xuan Ling by her side. With Xuan Ling here, at least they are not completely passive.
Mu Shang didn't know how dangerous his situation was at this time. As soon as the battle on the opposite side was over, he began to count the number of people. The combat data is absolutely astounding. Less than 20 percent of the dead were on their side, but 70 percent of the enemy was killed in the raid.
You must know that the ratio of the number of people on both sides is close to 1:10! He had already written down the formation adopted by Shen Lanying, and secretly decided that he would study the art of war in the Central Plains in the future.
As for the little boss who was killed by Ah Liangyin's arrow, Shen Lanying directly sent Gu Yao to search his body, and asked the soldiers to take the corpse away along with his own corpse, and quickly left this bloody battlefield and returned to Lijiang.
Shen Lanying walked beside Mu Shang and talked to him about the battle. Shen Lanying deduced that since the enemy chose to sneak attack from the east side, it was impossible to send only 2,000 men. Today they were supposed to be the strikers of the team. Those who fled would soon spread the word to the larger forces behind. Therefore, they must rush back to Lijiang City as quickly as possible to report to the main force of Lijiang.
An hour had passed, and a third of the way back had already been walked. The corpses and wounded were carried by people who had not previously participated in the battle, and their march was not too slow.
Mu Shang, who was at the forefront, found that the princess beside him was a little abnormal. Shen Lanying has always been very close to him, not only that, but also walking on the left for a while, and walking on the right for a while. However, her identity is a princess, and Mu Shang doesn't have much to say.
At the same time, the rear of the army.
Ah Liangyin had already put down the bow and arrow in his hand for the fifth time, frowning.
Only she knows that her heart is by no means as calm as it seems.
She was absolutely sure that Princess Zhaoying had seen what was in her heart. She has been going around Mu Shang, which is the best illustration.
A sneer appeared on his lips, and Ah Liangyin looked at Shen Lanying who was talking and laughing with Mu Shang in front of her. Your Highness Zhaoying, do you think that if you do this, I will not be able to kill him?
Ah Liangyin beckoned, and a soldier immediately flashed to her, listened to her whisper a few words, nodded, and blended into the ranks of soldiers again.
"That guy is aiming again!" Xuan Ling's voice reached Shen Lanying's ears for the sixth time.
"Hey, Mu Shang, after this battle, you have made a great contribution, you said that after you go back, will Lord Tusi reward you!" Shen Lanying and Mu Shang laughed and walked around Mu Shang again.
However, this time she did not succeed, and as soon as one foot stepped out, a long knife with a cold light was directly placed on her neck.
"Mu Shang, get down!" Shen Lanying expected that the people behind her would definitely not dare to kill her, so she simply shouted directly.
Shen Lanying's reaction was definitely fast. The soldier behind her originally wanted to cover her mouth, but before the action was finished, Shen Lanying had already finished shouting.
It's a pity, it turns out that Shen Lanying's quick reaction is useless, because Mu Shang's reaction is slow!
It wasn't until the arrows behind him were shooting at him at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to catch that he was halfway done.
Shen Lanying almost wanted to cry without tears.
How can your reflex arc be so long, boy!
The direction of that arrow was also accurate, and the target was Mu Shang's heart.
However, the facts have also proved that no matter how accurate Ah Liangyin's archery method is, it is useless, because Shen Lanying has a plug-in! Because Xuan Ling's secret weapon is more accurate!
A small pebble flew by, but it came first, and hit the arrow shot by Ah Liangyin.
At this time, Mu Shang had just turned around. I saw that Shen Lanying had been grabbed by a soldier, and a long knife was on her neck. Following Shen Lanying's shocked gaze, not far from the ground, an arrow made of stainless steel was inserted there, half of the arrow body was submerged into the ground, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling slightly under the effect of the remaining force. Obviously, the archers are the killers.
