Xianbei's southward movement has come to an end for the time being, and the fall of Luo County has nothing to do with the Ma family, who have shed enough blood there. I thought that the return road would be safe, but on the morning of the second day, not long after everyone set off, they saw the village in front of them rising into the sky with thick smoke, which was extremely conspicuous in the sky and clouds on this side.

Ma Teng now led the warriors to investigate.

The group rode all the way to the horse, and the smoking village was only five miles away, and it was only a short time to arrive.

Everyone went to a hillside to carefully and covertly check, at this time the situation of the mountain village was unobstructed, less than 100 households of the small village of Diren at this time corpses were all over the place, half a hundred Xianbei herdsmen in the village raised their swords to kill people and set fire, the villagers desperately resisted but did not have the thieves to borrow horsepower and were still beaten and retreated. Ma Teng's heart was furious, the bones pinched by the big hand holding the bow were crisp, and the green tendons were exposed, and he immediately opened his bow and set up an arrow to shoot an arrow, but Ma Yue stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Third brother, what are you stopping me from! Hugh wants to stop me, how can the descendants of the Ma clan see death and not save as a wall-by-side watcher! ”

Ma Yue pulled like this, he couldn't help Ma Teng, even Ma Zong, Guan Yu and others stared at him, Ma Yue hurriedly said: "Brother misunderstood, if you don't save it, brother, look at the place where the resistance is the most fierce in the village, the six people with spears and crossbows are wearing armor, isn't it the Han army." If we can't kill a few thieves with arrows here, we will startle the snakes, so it's not too late to rush into the village twenty paces away and then release the arrows, the thieves are only fifty, and we can kill them all in two or three rounds after a sudden attack! ”

As soon as Ma Yue said this, everyone suddenly realized, and Ma Teng bowed: "Good! ”

Everyone rode their horses all the way into the village, at this time the Xianbei bandits scattered to hunt and kill the villagers for Ma Teng and his party to provide convenience, although Ma Yue said that it was twenty steps away, but everyone rushed into the village and could not wait to open their bows and arrows, and they were scattering at the enemy.

A group of more than 60 people, except for Ma Yue, are good marksmen, a group of Qiang men light bow feather arrows point where to shoot, Ma Teng riding a huss horse to pull a strong bow actually an arrow pierced through two thieves thirty steps away, more eye-catching is the candidate, immediately hung a pair of light bows on the left and right, can open the bow left and right, the whole person shoots three thieves in the blink of an eye like a machine, and the three feather arrows are shot in one position, forehead.

Compared with everyone's skilled archery, Ma Yue rushed down the hill first, and he didn't move when everyone opened their bows and arrows, but rode his horse with his left hand and held a knife in his right hand.

It's not that he didn't bring a bow and arrows, but Ma Yue didn't know how to shoot arrows at all, he only had a crossbow, but the crossbow arrows were too late to be placed at this time, so he had to rush into the village with a ring knife.

His crossbow arrows had already been shot clean on the way to Luo County, all of which were used on the Xianbei scouts, and the arrows were all picked up and left Luo County without cutting wooden branches, and now there is no other means except the steel knife in his hand.

And Ma Yue's target is the boy not far away, the boy is only eight or nine years old, dressed in Diren clothes, holding a short knife carved with patterns to the thief trembling, the child has no adults around, can only step back, seeing the thief raise the steel knife, but there are still ten steps away, in a hurry, Ma Yue will be in his hand as a javelin throw, the calf force from the horse to stand up, suddenly raise the breath and throw the long knife.

Although Ma Yue had learned a spear throwing technique with the candidate, the long knife was different from the spear, the force was uneven and unbalanced, Ma Yue did not have the certainty of a fatal blow, and even he could only confirm that the flying knife could hit the thief, whether it was the blade or the back or the hilt. So he flew up and deceived, intending to drag the thief off his horse and fight him with a single miss.

Ma Yue, who threw the long knife, was bare-handed, and he could not be the opponent of the thief on the horse.

Sure enough, although the knife struck the thief, it could not kill him, and the long knife slashed the thief in the ribs and then flew out of the earthen wall that pierced the child's back, and even failed to stab the thief off his horse.

The thief was shocked when he was in pain, and blood gushed out from his ribs, and then he turned his head and Ma Yue flew and smashed it, and pressed the thief's head and knocked him off the horse, and the skull hit the ground with a heavy skull.

Fang Cairen jumped ten steps away from the horse's speed, and Ma Yue smashed the Qiang man's body on the ground, and his blood surged up, and the thief's bones under his knees were broken, and a cloud of dust flew out.

At this moment, Ma Yue knew that it was not a place to rest, and immediately picked up the stunned Diren child and pulled out the long knife from behind the wall, and before he had time to see the situation of the long knife, he heard the sound of the horse's hooves behind him and hurriedly jumped out, and turned around to see that a strong man had smashed with a mace on the place where Ma Yue was standing, and the strong man saw that the blow was missed, and immediately turned the horse's head, and the six-foot mace smashed towards Ma Yue with the momentum of wind and thunder.

Before he had time to think, Ma Yue raised his knife and went forward, and the sound of gold and iron exploded.

Ma Yue blocked, the price was that the mouth of the tiger with both hands collapsed, and the knife with both hands was able to block the casual blow of this Xianbei strongman on the horse, but the long knife in his hand was broken into three, and the second blade shot out on the side of Ma Yue's face, drawing a long blood line to the back of his head, and the long hair on his left sideburns was broken together.

The Xianbei thief was very surprised that the Han boy under the horse blocked a stick, but his face was even more hideous, and he swung his mace and raised it towards Ma Yue again.

Ma Yue only had the handle of the knife in his hand, and his body had been forced into a corner by the Qiang thieves, and the form was extremely critical.

In the eyes of the Diren child and Ma Yue, only the mace raised upwards shimmered with a deadly luster.

Ma Yue's heart seemed to be stuck in his throat, and the moment seemed to be extremely slow, and the mace was raised high, and the momentum sank.

No matter who it is, I am afraid that no one can dodge it with their bare hands.

"Poof!"

At this moment, a cluster of arrows suddenly appeared on the chest of the strong man on horseback, and then he fell from the horse as if he had been drained of all his strength, and the seven-foot-long mace also slipped from his palm because it had lost its support, and fell to the ground with a heavy muffled sound.

Ma Yue, who thought he was going to die without a place to be buried, was saved by this arrow, and the candidate fifty paces away was pulling out another feather arrow from his quiver, and shot at the other thief with an expressionless bow.

Ma Yue came back to his senses and suppressed the joy of escaping, and hid behind the wall with the child in his arms to watch the battle in the village. Now is not the time for him to be brave, now the situation in the village is extremely chaotic, the innermost is the Han army with the remaining dozen Di people young and strong desperately resisting, the periphery is the horse knights or wandering and running or hand-to-hand fighting, and in the middle is more than 30 thieves especially trapped beasts.

No matter how you look at it, those villagers are easier to break, but because there are two meters long warriors in the Han army who dance a long iron spear vigorously, one person can drag four thieves without defeat. Because of the existence of this nine-foot strong man, a group of villagers aroused their fighting spirit and stubbornly resisted, making it difficult for the Qiang thieves to break through, and the outside of the Ma family and the far and near are very appropriate, the Qiang people and the candidate cavalry and shooting are suppressed from a distance, and the close body is played by Ma Teng, Ma Zongguan, Yu Ma, and the four ** open and close, the Xianbei people were beaten and retreated, and there was nowhere to escape from the encirclement.

The Qiang people who had no intention of fighting again had collapsed, and the few remaining people were not left under the siege of the two sides. In the village where the corpses are everywhere, half of Ma Yue's face is covered with blood, his hair is stuck into locks of blood and pasted on his scalp, and he puts the child in his arms on the ground, he shows a mouthful of white teeth and smiles: "Diren Xiaoer, my name is Ma Yue, what is your name?" ”

"Daddy said my name is Li Hu, the tiger's tiger." The voice of the child was very crisp, but Ma Yue had no way to finish it, and the child was just halfway through when he heard the scarface boy in front of him shout: "Big brother, your third brother's head is open!" Then he rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
