Chapter Seventy-Three: Shura Field
As early as when the horse team began to shoot arrows, Martin had already seen the clue, and dragged the stone who was unable to move to lie down.
In the evening, the stone is more likely to become a hedgehog, but fortunately the distance is far, and the arrow is already weak and slow.
After a rain of arrows, Martin raised his prepared and wound crossbow arrows and shot them at the horse. Strangely enough, the arrow also had a small flask on its head, and Martin lit a gray-black core on the flask, and then shot with his bow.
As the head of the sect, Shi was very clear that the three of them had no chance of winning at the moment, so he sneered: "Are you archery or wine jug?" ”
"Hehe, these people come without saying hello, and Lao Tzu can't invite them to drink a pot of hot food?"
Martin continued to shoot as he spoke, but fortunately it was a crossbow arrow, and if it was a bow and arrow, he would need to wait for his arm strength to recover before he could continue. From the other side, arrows with flasks were constantly being fired, and it was a landing hiding from the side.
Just as Shi was sneering and ridiculing with even more disdain, wanting to win more with less, there was a sudden explosion in the horse team, followed by the neighing of horses and the screams of people.
Shi was more shocked, and looked up, only to see that the wine jugs exploded one after another, and the fragments exploded in all directions in the herd, piercing into the people and horses, and there was not only one wine jug, but many wine jugs scattered in the horse team. He knew that no matter what happened to Zhen Feng in the end, this horse team was finished.
The horses were injured and frightened, and the horses that were not dead scurried and lost control. Many horses rushed towards the high ground, and seeing that there were only less than a hundred paces, only a continuous shrill whistle was heard, and Martin and Landing fired rockets at a place in front of them, and then they all lay down, and hurriedly covered the straw mats that had been prepared.
I could only hear the sound of explosions one after another, and this time not only Shi Geng, but even Landing and Martin felt that death was very close. On their backs, they could feel that something had smashed into the straw mat, and if it wasn't for the straw mat to protect them, they would have to be injured if they didn't die.
Many horses were blown down and even swept over by the air waves, and less than a hundred paces away from them became an asura field.
When the heavens and the earth were quiet, Zhen Feng summoned everyone to retreat across the lake. It's just that he just ran two steps, and he couldn't help but want to vomit, the scene just now was completely different from his imagination, even if he was mentally prepared, he couldn't stand it if he really saw it.
Finally, they ran to the ferry, only to see that many boatmen were startled by the constant explosions and the sound of horses chirping, thinking that there had been a large-scale war, they left the shore and hid, including the one they had agreed on, and only one boat was left to wait.
Two of their horses were also frightened, Zhang Yuanlai was a little weak, and it was very difficult to control one of them, but fortunately there was a young man next to him who was helping to calm the other horse.
This young man was the boatman of one of the boats, and he was angular and a little thin, but he had a lot of arm strength.
After the horses were controlled, Zhen Feng learned where the other boats were going and asked, "Why didn't you hide?" ”
The young man scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Although the little one is just a boatman, he has also heard the story of the tail life hugging the pillar. Since you have promised to wait here for all the guest officers, and there is no direct danger, it is natural to do what you say. ”
The story of Ozai hugging the pillar comes from "Zhuangzi Thief", which is about Ozai and the woman agreeing to meet under the bridge, but after waiting for a long time, the woman did not come, and as a result, the water rose, and Oosheng hugged the pillar and died and did not leave.
Zhen Feng nodded, it was a great fortune to be able to meet such a trustworthy and kind and simple boatman. Who knows if there will be pursuers behind? He patted the young man on the shoulder, packed his bags and boarded the boat.
Later, Zhen Feng chatted with him and learned that the young man was in his early twenties, named Jiang Linxian, who inherited the ferrying skills, depended on his mother and younger brother for his life, and started the family by himself at the age of twelve.
When he arrived at the ship, Shi Geng was full of doubts and didn't speak, but Martin asked first: "Shopkeeper, why are those wine jugs you made so powerful?" In the blink of an eye, more than fifty people and horses are finished, so what the hell is it? ”
"Actually, it's nothing, just let Lao Deng go to Fenghua Army to get some black powder raw materials, and then put them in bottles in proportion."
"No wonder I saw you make such a big move yesterday, I thought it was the New Year's firecrackers. Why is that thing so powerful? ”
"Gunpowder can blow bottles into pieces and bounce them open, so it will be more lethal, but I counted just now, and there are still a few dumb ones, and the effect is still not good enough. Fortunately, the final amount is relatively large, and there can be a large shock wave. ”
"Isn't that good? It was a corpse all over the ground, and the injured probably didn't live long. What to do there now? ”
Landing replied expressionlessly: "People have been arranged to guard it, and they will go to clean up the battlefield." ”
Shi sat down even more dejectedly, thinking that someone had come to save him, but it turned out that more than fifty people came to kill him, and the last bit of illusion was shattered. originally thought that Zhen Feng and these people couldn't escape, and they could bury themselves, but it turned out that they had secret weapons, and no matter how high their martial arts were, they couldn't resist it, so they were in the horse team, and they might be queuing up to go to Huangquan at this time.
All of this was planned and prepared by Zhen Feng many times. Shi Geng is in his hands, if the players behind the scenes are strong enough, they will definitely not let it go. Sure enough, the comer was not good.
In the late Tang Dynasty, there was black powder, which was first used for alchemy medicine, and in the early Song Dynasty, gunpowder was not used in military affairs, but in circus acrobatic performances, as well as fireworks acrobatics in puppet shows, to create a mysterious atmosphere. You can perform illusions, such as spewing out fireworks and clouds to escape people, change things, etc., and you can harvest a batch of IQ taxes.
Zhen Feng strengthened it and made it into a simple grenade, and the time was too tight at the moment to make something more powerful. So he was quite worried that there would be a lot of fish that slipped through the net, so it was better to go first as a respect, and it was the best policy to go.
Halfway through the boat, the landing suddenly said, "Someone is coming this way." ”
When Martin heard this, he hurriedly ran to the boatman Jiang Linxian and picked up another oar to help row the boat. I saw a boat diagonally behind it, and there were five people on board, dressed like the people in the horse team just now. They're all rowing, so they're faster than they are.
What Zhen Feng was worried about still happened, and the fish that slipped through the net will have endless troubles.
When the two ships were about a hundred and fifty paces apart, both sides were already aiming their bows and arrows at each other, but the landing was with arrows with gunpowder jugs, and the other was nothing more than ordinary rockets. This is a lose-lose situation, because Zhen Feng's side has landed, and no one else can defend it, but even if the other party defends, the explosion will still affect them in the end.
Under the stalemate, Zhen Feng stood up and shouted loudly: "Go back and tell your master in the north that Shi Geng has abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and your affairs have been secretly played by the official family, even if you kill us, it will be useless." It was just an appetizer, and if you use any more killing, don't blame me for being rude. I despise you! ”
Zhen Feng repeated these words three times, and basically confirmed that the other party had heard him before stopping. Although the distance between the two ships is getting closer, the stalemate is as if time has stood still.
Finally, Zhen Feng's ship landed without danger. When everyone was ashore, the group, which was less than a hundred paces away, turned the bow of the boat and sailed away, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
After Jiang Linxian sent people ashore, he returned to the boat, Zhen Feng nodded at him and was just about to leave, when suddenly a series of rockets shot towards Jiang Linxian's hull, and the hull was instantly ablaze.
