Chapter 269: Caught in an Ambush 2
"There's an ambush!" "Hide!" All kinds of shouts in the ranks came one after another, and people became a pot of porridge, these people had not undergone the strict discipline and formation training of the army before, and they would only fight separately when they encountered an ambush, and they could not show basic cooperation. Seeing two wine and meat brothers who usually drink together and prostitutes being injured by dark arrows, they are worried that they will be next.
Liang Chuan's first reaction was to squat down directly, the knee-deep weeds were the best cover, and he panicked, this feeling of being stared at as a prey was too scratchy, and the dark arrows in the dense forest were like stabbing in the back, and I don't know when they will shoot out from an angle that you don't pay attention to. Liang Chuan looked at the two officials and was afraid that they would not be able to do it, blood flowed all over the ground, one was shot in the thigh, the other was shot in the lower abdomen, the blood and intestines flowed all over the ground, and the vitality had gradually disappeared.
The men hiding in the forest shot two arrows and didn't move again, but the calm before the storm was the most devastating.
"What now, run? Wait? Liang Chuan asked Li Chuyi anxiously.
Li Chuyi squatted not far from him, his eyes scanning the surroundings quickly like an eagle, his breathing was smooth and his face was calm, this kind of small scene was not worth mentioning to him.
"Wait and see what happens, if there are more people, you will retreat, and if there are few people, you will act!" Li Chuyi said softly.
Liang Chuan's heart was pounding, he was in danger many times, after all, he had never faced thousands of troops, although he tried to pretend to be indifferent on the surface, but he was actually panicked!
Master Lu is a scholar, he has no power to restrain the chicken, and it is more difficult for him to defeat the enemy in battle than to ascend to the sky. He immediately shouted: "I am an official of Xinghua, and when the mountain people appear quickly, there is no grievance for you!" ”
Liang Chuan sneered in his heart: "This is the stupidity of the reader, people are waiting for you with cold arrows, and there is a fart to talk about?" ”
In the empty mountain forest, only an echo was heard: "Dog officer! You have done a lot of injustice and forced us and other poor children to be cornered, today I will sacrifice my anti-flag with the blood of your dog, and he will kill him under Xinghua City every day, and he will definitely take the life of the dog Zhixian dog! ”
As soon as the words fell, the humming of the bowstrings in the dense forest was endless, and the sound of sharp arrows piercing through the quiet woods was no longer sporadic and sporadic like a storm, centering on them from all directions, and shooting densely over them!
"Beware, brethren!" Li Chengfu turned over, quickly flipped off the horse, entered the enemy's encirclement, and stayed on the horse to become a live target of the enemy! A group of officials greeted the ancestors of these mountain people in various mouths, and they all lay on the ground to avoid this rain of arrows. Thanks to the natural concealment of these branches and trunks, many arrows were shot at the trees or blocked by the branches, and they lost their accuracy, but even then there were many officials who wore colors on their bodies!
"The mountain people have rebelled, everyone retreat!" Seeing that his mission had been achieved, Master Lu wished to get out as soon as possible and go back to his life, if he stayed in such a dangerous place, his old life would be confessed here. These mountain people set up ambushes under the sun, shot and wounded a number of officials, and if he stayed, his life might have to be confessed here. Although the rebels did not show up, their words and deeds have undoubtedly reversed, retreat quickly, it is not their task to exterminate the traitors, and it is important to save their lives!
The officials waited for the order to retreat, but they waited for a long time, and when they heard Master Lu's order, they were like a general amnesty! A group of people began to scramble and prepare to escape.
Li Chengfu was anxious when he saw it, "Slow, the two brothers in front of me haven't been saved!" Li Chengfu, who is most afraid of death and greedy for money, can still take care of two subordinates at this critical juncture! Then there was a scene that even Liang Chuan's eyes didn't believe, Li Chengfu, an old boy, actually resisted the cold arrows that kept shooting out of the forest, and moved towards the two scouts!
Master Lu let out a "hey" as soon as he saw it, and he was ready to drive away without returning to the ground with the horse's head on the ground! Where does it matter whether the two servants live or die, his own life is much more expensive, and every more time he stays in dangerous places is more dangerous!
Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are a negative person when you read! Their gang of servants can really see it at this time, Li Chengfu is a good big brother who takes them from birth to death on weekdays, where will this Master Lu care about their life and death. He gave an order, Li Chengfu made a move, and the officials who were about to slip away didn't move, and they pulled up the crossbows with trembling hands one by one, and shot them back into the forest, shouting that they should save people quickly, and we fought with them and so on!
Originally, the officials were passively beaten in the bright place, but as soon as they returned the shot, the scene became lively, and all kinds of shouts shook the heavens and the earth, but I didn't see them really do it with swords!
"Lao Li, I'll help you!" Liang Chuan picked up the big crossbow on his back, and walked to the two officials, and the two of them dragged back with a still crying officer. Li Chuyi was worried that Liang Chuan had made a mistake, so his eyes paid attention to the movements around him and guarded Liang Chuan's side.
Courage, rather than morale, is a wonderful thing, and if everyone is busy running for their lives, everyone will only be more afraid of these mountain people, afraid of losing their own lives. Once everyone starts to face these mountain people seriously, their hearts will not be so afraid. It's just a bunch of refugees in the mountains, poor ghosts who can't even afford a knife, what's there to be afraid of?
Liang Chuan and Li Chengfu risked their lives to snatch people back, but the two of them lost too much blood, their faces were as pale as white paper, and they were still struggling violently when they were first hit by the arrow, and now they are dying. If you bring it to the county seat, I'm afraid it's a dead person. They are also family people, and the corpses left on the mountain will either be fed to the beasts, or they will be spoiled by these mountain people and cannot be brought back, and Li Chengfu can't face their families.
Master Lu was embarrassed, and everyone wanted to slip away when they waited for him, but relying on the speed of fast horses turned out to be the target of these mountain people in the forest. There's no way, the horse rider must be an official, and if you shoot people, you have to shoot the horse first, and if you kill this head, you will earn it, and the goal of the horse is big enough, which is much easier than shooting people.
Master Lu's horse had just taken a step and was about to gallop, when the ground that was still flat suddenly pulled up a rope and lay in the middle of the road. The speed of the horse was too fast, and it would not jump over this tripping rope, and the front legs of the two legs were directly tripped by the rope, and Master Lu fell out firmly, and a handful of old bones almost fell apart, and he ate a dog gnawing mud.
"Who... Who's going to give me a hand. "Master Lu is struggling on the ground, the scene just now is so chilling, he ran away first when others were in trouble, he himself was in trouble, who would take care of him?
When the mountain people saw this big official fall to the ground, they couldn't hold it anymore, and rushed out of the dense forest one after another, wanting to grab the head and go back to invite merit, but once again they couldn't grab the head of the person, and if they grabbed one or two valuable objects on the person, they could also exchange a lot of money!
As soon as these mountain people appeared, the officials saw their true colors clearly, all of them were unkempt and ragged, holding old firewood knives and axes in their hands, and they did not even have a standard weapon.
"Grandma, you're finally willing to show up!" Li Chengfu saw that these mountain people were willing to show their heads, and their fangs were also exposed, "Hack this group of beasts to death for Lao Tzu!" ”
The mountain people thought that these people were strong and hardworking, and they didn't have the courage to pick up swords and fight them, so they would have the courage to come out and grab things, but when they really ran into these officers and soldiers, the fear of the government in their bones haunted their hearts.
In fact, the officials were also afraid, but fortunately, their guns were longer than the broken knives of the mountain people, which made them very courageous, and they were ready to give them some color when they carried their guns and stared at these scattered mountain people.
The open gun is easy to dodge and the dark arrow is difficult to defend, and before they can hand it over, a cold arrow was shot in the forest, hitting the arm of a servant, and the stiffened servant was instantly shrouded in the shadow of death, and they coaxed again.
"Come back, you can't fight these dog officials!" There was an anxious shout in the woods, and after they put down the officials with cold arrows, I hurriedly persuaded a few mountain people who were eager for quick success.
"Lao Zheng, let's retreat first today, don't fight with them!" Liang Chuan said to Li Chengfu that the two injured officials were dragged back, and the purpose was achieved, so there was really no need to entangle.
Li Chengfu couldn't agree anymore, and he couldn't help but be righteous and angry. "Brothers, withdraw!" He didn't care about riding a horse anymore, so he asked his men to help carry the wounded, and the embankment was guarded against cold arrows, and slowly retreated down the mountain. Many of the officials have been hit by arrows, and these mountain people have been hunting in the mountains all year round, and many of them have reasonable archery skills, and it is much easier to hunt and kill people than to hunt fierce beasts.
Liang Chuan walked past Master Lu, and Master Lu grabbed Liang Chuan's trouser leg: "San Lang Mo throw me down, save me!" ”
Liang Chuan wanted to pretend that he didn't see it, so his conscience was passable, this old boy left his colleagues and ignored it, he was more than innocent! I still let him pick it up, damn it.
None of the other servants refused to come to save Master Lu, but Liang Chuan could only grit his teeth and carry this old boy on his shoulder, heh, it's not bad, it's like carrying a human flesh sandbag, if there is a cold arrow on Master Lu, it's not bad!
Some of the officials rescued the wounded, and those who were free pulled up their crossbows and shot arrows into the forest, and fought and retreated. Liang Chuan, Li Chuyi, and Li Chengfu were in the rear, and a group of people staggered and fled. Seeing that the servants were slowly retreating, the mountain people finally revealed their true colors, and the figures in the forest flashed one after another, and Liang Chuan was far away, and there were no less than 100 people!
The homeless people won the first battle, and the excitement and joy were overflowing, and many people were scolding and shouting, trying their best to mock these officials. The officials gritted their teeth when they saw it, but they couldn't beat it from time to time, so they could only watch dryly. At the end of the crowd, Liang Chuan actually saw a person he never wanted to see: the bandit leader of Da Fei Mountain!
Liang Chuan gritted his teeth, his heart was horrified, it's over, this evil wolf has done all kinds of evil, it turned out that he had been entrenched in Dashu Mountain for countless years, and now if he hooked up with these homeless people, I am afraid that it will really become a nightmare for the government and the local people!
