Chapter 34: Jingning in distress
Xue Jingning, who was far away in Pingcheng, naturally would not know about the undercurrent waves in the Rui Si Palace. Before she wrote the excerpt, she knew that Xiao Yan would definitely approve her proposal. It is beneficial to Daqi and Pingcheng, and he has no reason to refuse.
At this moment, in Pingcheng, in the northeast camp, Xue Jingning was dressed in a man's riding uniform, standing on a high platform with his back straight, the arrow and crossbow in his hand on his wrist, and demonstrating the use of it for them in front of five hundred elites.
She had an idea for this arrow crossbow ten days ago, but she couldn't think of how to replace the short arrow with something simpler, and it was always a waste of time to change the arrow frequently.
In the end, it was Jinglan who proposed to replace it with silver needles, and a bucket of arrows and crossbows was full of sharp silver needles that could penetrate the wood for three points.
Five in a row, a row of thick trunks inserted into the distance, only a few needle tails.
The soldiers were all amazed.
Jing Ning had already quenched the drug on these needles in advance, and he fell down as soon as he was hit, not giving the enemy any chance to escape.
She pursed her lips and thought secretly, after preparing for so long, it was time to take action to defeat the enemy.
The soldiers set off in two ways, one team led by Sun Dujian and led by 300 elite soldiers, starting from the south and turning to the jungle in the direction of Liyang to the northwest of the mountains and mountains. As for the remaining 200 men, each of them was equipped with arrows and crossbows, and set out with Jingning from the north, preparing for an ambush on the road to Yanling.
The reason why she arranged this way and sent most of the elite soldiers as bait to lure the enemy deep into the northern part of the mountains was because these bandits were too cunning. They were familiar with the terrain of Pingcheng, and as soon as they heard that the officers and soldiers were coming, they were able to flee without a trace.
Only by luring them to some flat place could she take them down in one fell swoop.
After nearly half a day's effort, she traveled to the mountain, and according to the original plan, she set up several hidden places on the spot to plan the personnel from all over the place.
It's just that......
Over the mountains, the wind whistled violently, mercilessly rolling up a piece of yellow sand. The air was filled with the urgency of the sword being unsheathed, like a sharp blade slashing quickly, with the slightest smell of blood.
It's a little unsettling.
Jing Ning suddenly stopped the movement of her hand, she had a strange intuition, as if ...... What went wrong?
She stared around her, the open terrain, a green meadow, all of them were surprisingly quiet.
When a soldier saw that her expression was wrong, he couldn't help frowning and asked, "Lord Hui, what's wrong?" ”
Just a moment after talking like this, a strong wind instantly hit his face, breaking through the air and whirling, facing Jing Ning's eyebrows.
There is an ambush!
Jing Ning changed color in shock, and immediately dodged sideways after being stunned for a moment, but was still stabbed in the arm.
The blow missed, and the people hiding around no longer hid their back, Huo Ran sprang out of the grass, from the lush branches of the trees, and among the distant peaks, and countless sharp arrows were aimed at them in unison.
The strange cold silence made people feel more stressed, and the first man with a beard looked at her fiercely, "You are Xue Jingning?" ”
If she guessed correctly, this man was the leader of the bandits.
Do everything that is unconscionable, collect money without morality, and use a method that is available......
It's just, how did he know that he would come here to contain it?
All her plans were only told to the soldiers who participated in this operation, and the rest, even Uncle An, didn't know about it.
It was meant to be kept secret, but in the end it was leaked out.
Jing Ning secretly hated that she still underestimated the water in Pingcheng.
There was a pain in her arm, as if something had been holding on to her heart, she glanced at the wound on her arm, and Huo Ran's eyes widened.
The blood is black!
…… This arrow is poisonous!
