The sound of bowstrings sounded, and sharp arrows burst out of the wind.

Zhang Xiu was condescending, and the bow and arrow he used was a high-grade cow tendon bow, this arrow was extremely fast, Zhou Yu didn't have time to draw out the long sword on the other side, so he could only subconsciously lie sideways to dodge.

Zhang Xiu has been preparing for this arrow for a long time. In the past month, whenever Zhang Xiu hunted or robbed the road, he used bows and arrows as his main weapon. At the beginning, it could only play the role of scare, and many times it was different from the practice of the school field to practice the personal use and practice of fixed targets, which made Zhang Xiu's archery skills progress rapidly.

Therefore, the arrow did not deviate much, and it hit the target accurately.

The sharp arrow coated with the juice of poisonous weeds outside the plug shot the white horse under Zhou Yu's crotch. Although the horse was a war horse, it did not have a vest. was hit by an arrow from Zhang Xiu's cow tendon bow, and immediately fell to the ground and tossed.

That's right, Zhang Xiu has self-knowledge this time, shoot people first and shoot horses, and capture thieves and capture kings first!

The pure white war horse of the fine breed was hit by Zhang Xiu's arrow, and it could still be held up for a moment without falling to the ground. However, the poison that Zhang Xiu applied to the arrow caused the war horse to suffer great pain, and he couldn't help but take Zhou Yu to the ground, and actually rolled on the spot.

At that time, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but regret a little, wouldn't Zhou Yu be busy in vain if he was crushed to death by a horse. So he hurriedly whistled, took up his longbow and took up his spear.

With that whistle, a behemoth suddenly stood up in the lush grass where Zhang Xiufang was hiding. The behemoth may have been in the grass for too long, and when it stood up, it let out a long neigh.

This behemoth is Zhang Xiu's mount. The coat color is very general and miscellaneous, but the whole body is an extremely tight and sturdy Xiliang war horse!

Zhang Xiu, who flew on the horse, instantly regained the feeling of the Northland Spear King, his eyes were sharp, and a momentum of nothingness emanated.

There is no need for him to drink the order, but the war horse under the crotch is raised with its front hooves, the horse's head is held high, and Zhang Xiu is frozen in the afterglow of the setting sun! A fierce bandit with a bow and a spear on his back and a motley war horse.

The moment the front hooves fell, this Xiliang war horse did not pause at all, kicked the hind hooves, and rushed down the mountain!

The sound of horses' hooves instantly drowned out the hooves of all the horses present!

If Zhou Yu was not pressed by his white horse at the moment, he could judge at a glance that this was a real Hummer! Because the performance of this horse is not at all comparable to that of the horses who have grown up in the fence and have grown up in the fence.

Zhang Xiu stepped down the mountain with a rolling thunder and a horse, pointing directly at the white war horse and the white-clothed Zhou Yu who fell to the ground.

Although Zhou Yu couldn't see anything, he could hear and feel the surging Peng Pai coming straight towards him, and immediately felt a short blade from his waist, and a fierce color flashed between his eyebrows, and he stabbed the dagger into the belly of his mount.

The abdomen is the most painful place in the whole body, and this war horse was stabbed by Zhou Yu with less than half of the hilt, and he actually stood up with a long neigh.

Zhang Xiu was already ready to attack on the horse, and when he saw the white horse that fell to the ground, he suddenly stood up, Zhang Xiu did not hesitate to stab the spear forward with one hand, and stabbed it into the back of the white horse. The crotch mount rushed forward even more because his legs clamped the horse's belly when he embroidered the spear.

The spear pierced the back of the white horse, probably because it broke the spine, and the white horse didn't even flutter, but was killed directly. Then Zhang Xiu's crotch and the humvee hit the white horse that was killed in seconds with the horse's head. Zhang Xiu held a spear in one hand and held the white horse body, coupled with the strong collision of the humvee under the crotch, the white horse was led up by Zhang Xiu in an instant and continued to rush forward.

In this case, Zhang Xiu still dared to be distracted. With his left hand, he pulled out the longbow on his back and put it on the ground, and actually took Zhou Yu, who was halfway up on his back, with him.

At this time, a group of bandits had just been killed down the mountain, and Zhou Yu's guards were anxious to be crushed by the horse. Everyone's eyes were focused on the group of people who were the first to rush down the hill and the first to fall to the ground.

At this moment, everyone only saw Zhang Xiu picking up a war horse with a spear in one hand, a big living person with a glove off the ground, and galloping forward!

The audience was shocked, and everyone was shocked.

The two sides actually stopped their movements in unison at the moment when they were about to intersect, and watched this wonderful scene in amazement.

The humvee was still moving forward, Zhang Xiu clamped his legs again, and the crotch mount couldn't make it hard, so he straightened the horse's legs and braked, Zhang Xiu picked up the spear hard, and the white horse broke away from Zhang Xiu's spear, flew forward a meter and then hit the ground heavily.

At the same time, Zhang Xiu also lifted Zhou Gongjin who was put on the bowstring with his left hand, maybe it was the state of outbreak, Zhang Xiu lifted it hard, Zhou Yu actually flew in the air, and the next second Zhang Xiu's left hand abandoned the bow and grabbed Zhou Yu's neck. Lift Zhou Yu in mid-air.

In the eyes of everyone, Zhang Xiu is more powerful. Not to mention a dead horse with a spear, he actually threw up a big living person with one hand in the process of riding the horse, and then carried it in the air with one hand!

In fact, it is Zhang Xiu's crotch that bears most of the strength, the humvee that gallops down from the mountain, Zhang Xiu just takes advantage of the trend, but it is very good to create the effect of his bravery.

Perhaps if it was an eye-catching horse like Chitu under Zhang Xiu's crotch, then onlookers would pay more attention to the mount. But at this moment, the appearance of this war horse is not good, but it is precisely its own fierceness grafted on Zhang Xiu's body.

Zhang Xiu, who grabbed Zhou Yu's neck, threw Zhou Yu to the ground, and then pointed the spear in his right hand at Zhou Yu's chest who fell to the ground.

The tiger's eyes swept around, and there was no one in the audience who dared to move around.

Including Zhou Yu himself, it was also difficult to accept the impact of this fall and falling together.

……

After a big job, the mountain village was still calm at night, as if nothing had happened during the day. In fact, the bandits in Danyang have always been so calm, no matter how much treasure they robbed, they still do what they should do. Even if there are thousands of treasures buried under the ground at home, whether they should work in the field or go to the ground during the day, there is no unusual look on their simple faces.

In fact, this is very similar to the Somali pirates of later generations. Somali refugees fleeing to the islands of the Gulf of Aden because of the war and the barrenness of the land, when there are no boats on the sea, they divide their fishing nets and gather AK groups to besiege them. It's just that they are refugees, they don't like to kill indiscriminately, they just like to rob money and goods, and later they only developed into kidnapping hostages for ransom. Never done anything too bloody out of the ordinary. Otherwise, how could the nations allow a vicious gang of bandits to remain near the world's busiest waterways for a long time. When these pirates are captured, the United Nations and the like often take them lightly, because for humanitarian reasons, these people will starve to death if they don't do it. Besides, he didn't commit any heinous heinous crimes, so it was better to let it go.

This is also one of the reasons why Somali pirates have been repeatedly banned, and the fundamental reason is that Somalia, an already extremely barren country, has been in extreme chaos for a long time, and the people's survival and life are not guaranteed, and piracy is the only industry that can support itself!

The same applies to Danyang County. Because the "mountain people" have regarded killing people and stealing goods as a means of survival with the same importance as farming and hunting, and they do not deliberately cause trouble and do things that threaten the regime. Therefore, for generations, the mountainous counties of Danyang County have not excessively investigated the sin of mountain people for robbing roads and killing people. This is also a reason why Danyang's folk customs have not been able to be educated for a long time.

In a cave in the village, all of Zhou Yu's attendants were kept. Originally, according to custom, these people should have been killed and destroyed on the spot. In this way, the government finally turned a blind eye and said that there was no evidence to the outside world.

However, Zhang Xiu suddenly put forward the idea of joining the army, and caused a young and strong mountain people to be silent.

At the beginning of the war in the Central Plains, many displaced people from the south of the Yangtze River poured in. In order to expand their power, the princes and heroes in various places have carried out measures to appease the displaced people. Gather high-quality farmers who can cultivate in the Central Plains and reclaim the Jiangdong Plain to increase the grain yield of the fields.

First, some uncultivated wilderness was reclaimed, and then the war continued, and more and more displaced people were squeezed out, so they squeezed out the farmland of the original Jiangnan people. Later, when there were fewer and fewer fields in the plains, they began to crowd out the arable land in the hilly and mountainous areas.

Let's just say Danyang County, not all counties are mountainous. Its northeast region is less hilly and more plain, and it is also near lakes and rivers, and fish and food are abundant. It is the first choice for northerners to relocate. Many of the original Danyang people in the northeast moved inward, like Jing County, where Du Laoda is located, the foreign population is also increasing, and the villages are more and more crowded, but the amount of cultivated land has not changed.

Therefore, when Zhang Xiu proposed to coerce these horses with military specifications, as well as more than 30 captives to join the army, it resonated with many mountain people.

……

This is the second time Zhou Yu has gone to Sun Ce.

When Sun Ce first conquered Jiangdong, Zhou Yu personally led his soldiers and horses to bring his own money and food to help Sun Ce start a business. At that time, Yuan Shu had just entrenched in Huainan, Zhou Yu's uncle Wu Jing commanded the army under Yuan Shu, and his uncle Zhou Shang served as the Taishou of Danyang with Yuan Shu's support. Therefore, Zhou Yu was able to mobilize a small number of soldiers, horses, grain and grass to help Sun Ce, a buddy who had been friends since childhood, start a business.

When Sun Ce had just gained a firm foothold in Jiangdong, Zhou Yu had to lead his subordinates back to Danyang because Yuan Shu dismissed Zhou Shang from his post as Taishou, and then went to Shouchun with his uncle Zhou Shang to meet Yuan Shu.

Zhou Yu, who was only in his early twenties at the time, did not have the style of the later governor, and thought that Yuan Shu was a character, but he was only disappointed after seeing it. However, Yuan Shu discovered Zhou Yu's talent, and he needed to win over the Zhou clan to appease the Huainan clan, so he wanted to reuse Zhou Yu. How could the extremely smart Zhou Yu accompany Yuan Shu to die together, and only asked to return to Lujiang to serve as the magistrate of Juchao County.

Juchao County and Jiangdong face each other, in fact, Zhou Yu is preparing to return to Jiangdong at any time.

In the past few years, Sun Ce has gathered a group of civil and military forces around him, and his power has become bigger and bigger. Zhou Yu also secretly slowly relocated the Lujiang Zhou family to Jiangdong, only waiting until Sun Ce needed an all-powerful commander who could fight side by side with him to conquer Jiangnan, so he abandoned his official position and went directly to Jiangdong!

After planning for a long time, the Zhou family finally migrated from the Lujiang River to Jiangdong, and when Sun Ce accumulated the strength and was about to start the expedition to the entire Jingyang Jiangnan region, Zhou Yu resolutely abandoned the official Nandu, discarded all the gold and silver and soft family real estate and land, and only took his own soldiers and thirty horsemen to join Sun Ce!
