Chapter 2 (13) by Liang Chuan (II)

Catching a glimpse of a few bits of light in the woods, Shang Chengcheng felt that all the sounds in his ears had suddenly disappeared without a trace, and he could see the stone with a white bun in his mouth talking to his companion, his companion was smiling and gesturing, Liu Laozhu's lips were squirming, but he couldn't hear their sounds, the only thing he could hear was his own heartbeat.

At this moment, his heartbeat was like a wave crashing against the rocks on the shore, and it rang in his ears one after another.

There are people in the woods! In the woods are the Turgites!

He couldn't tell how the idea came about, and he had only seen a few merchants in Duanzhou City who had gone to the south to do business; But when he caught a glimpse of the few lights in the woods, the thought came to him irrepressibly. His mind went blank at this terrible thought, and he was almost suffocated with nervousness. Deep fear wrapped around him like a poisonous snake, and then pierced its fangs into his body; In an instant, the venomous juice of the viper spread rapidly along his veins to his limbs. He was now like a man walking naked in the ice and snow, and he could feel the despair cold in his bone marrow. The boundless darkness squeezed against him from all sides, and his heart was on the verge of collapse with unbearable pressure, and he opened his mouth wide to cry out completely unconsciously, but his throat seemed to be stuck to something, and he could not make a sound at all; He tried desperately to wave his arms to warn his still unconscious companions, but his arms seemed to be imprisoned in iron shackles, and they did not listen to him; He even wanted to get up and run away from here, but he didn't feel his legs and feet at all......

He couldn't move his hands and feet, and could only stand up helplessly as Liu Laozhu muttered something in his mouth.

Finished. He groaned in his heart. Uncle Zhu will definitely be killed by the Tututs; The next moment, Uncle Zhu will be like those dead people in countless movies and television works he has watched, lying in a pool of blood after a gunshot; Yue'er will become an orphan without a father and a mother, wandering alone in this world; He himself will die, he will leave this world, leaving behind Lianniang, and the child in his wife's womb......

He didn't want to leave this world. But he couldn't do anything, he didn't even have the strength and courage to escape, he could only wait for the coming fate in pain and numbness.

Just as he resigned himself to leaving everything to fate, he suddenly magically regained control of his hands and feet.

Without thinking, he threw away the bowl and wheat cake in his hand, grabbed Liu Laozhu's belt and tugged hard, and finally burst out of his throat The words that rolled in his chest many times:

"Get down!"

But he could only open his mouth. Before the voice could reach his mouth, it faded away, leaving only a meaningless, muddy syllable.

The people next to him didn't even know what he had said, they only saw him suddenly knock Liu Laozhu to the ground like a demon, and then cover Liu Laozhu with his own body.

Zhao Shishi was also stunned by this sudden scene, and he didn't even notice that the bun dregs he was chewing in his mouth fell to the ground. It was not easy for him to wake up a little, but he didn't know what to do, squatting beside him with his eyebrows and eyes at a loss, could it be said that the monk was crazy, or that their uncles and nephews had caused some big disputes? He swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and looked at Shang Cheng, who was pressing Liu Laozhu to the ground, and couldn't decide for a moment whether to persuade the two of them to leave, or continue to squat next to him to eat and drink as if they were fine. He had no choice but to raise his eyelids and ask his companion for help, hoping that he could help him solve the unbelievable problem in front of him.

His companion's appearance was even more ugly than his, his face was as sallow as a dead man, his trembling lips had turned a terrible grayish-white, and the strangest thing was his companion's small eyes, which were now so wide that they were about to fall out of their sockets......

What do you see? Zhao Shishi half-twisted around curiously, followed the eyes of his companion, and immediately fell to the ground with the bowl and bun in his hand.

A stocky man in a fur hat and dark brown leather armor was coming out of the woods. The man held a bow in his left hand and an arrow in his right, the tip of which rested on the bowstring, both the bow and the arrow pointed diagonally to the ground, and walked steadily forward step by step with a leg that was not ridiculous at all. Another Turquoise stepped out, his bow and arrows in his hands, pointing at the earth at the same angle, and with the same steady steps, step by step. Then there was the third Tutz; Fourth, fifth......

The packers who were eating, drinking, and resting in the open field outside the barracks all saw this scene. No one spoke, no one screamed, and no one fled, and they watched one by one, like clay statues in the temple, with a look on their faces full of sluggishness. Even the psychic beast like the pack horse seemed to sense something, and began to stir uneasily with a loud snort.

More than twenty people from the woods walked silently past the blank faces and trembling legs of the pack men, and walked past the commotion of pack horses. They didn't even glance at the packmen and horses, as if there were no people or horses in the clearing, nothing but a clearing where trees had been cut down and grass had been cut; They watched in silence every move in the station, moving quietly but firmly forward.

The soldiers in charge of lookout and vigilance on the south watchtower of the military station also discovered the enemy. But he did nothing, just dumbfounded and watched the Rushes advance slowly and without hesitation in a loose formation. The people who were eating noon in the barracks hadn't noticed what was happening outside, and there was still no movement. The barricade gate of the barracket was open, and there were no soldiers on guard; There was not even anyone on the watchtower to the north, and there was only a small bronze bell hanging from the beam on the roof of the empty watchtower.

It wasn't until the Turpets had already crossed the large room of the field that the soldiers on the south watchtower of the station finally recovered some of their senses from the incredible shock. His mouth was wide open, and his arm was already reaching for the rope of the alarm bell; At this moment, the first few of the Turrets raised their arms, and in the blink of an eye six or seven arrows were flying towards him.

The sentry's arm that had clung the bell rope suddenly stopped, and then he seemed to have been struck by something, and with six or seven arrows stuck in his face, neck, and chest, he staggered backwards, and slowly slid down to the floor by leaning on the large log pillars that supported the watchtower. But he didn't let go of the hand that was holding the bell rope until he died, and he rang the alarm bell one by one......

The sudden alarm bell woke up the lost packers, who immediately said "Help", "God, it's the Turbers!" And a few senseless howls, fleeing for their lives in the north and south directions. Several frightened packmen panicked and jumped directly into the line of the Turgits, and they were all stabbed in the head by the Turgits, who did not have bows and arrows in their hands, and fell to the ground with blood.

The border soldiers in the barracks were still in the midst of a commotion caused by the confusion of the situation. An officer-like man waved his arm to go to the watchtower to check the situation, another officer hurriedly ran towards the door of the station with three or five soldiers, and more border officers and soldiers stood at the long wooden table where they were eating, and they still didn't know what was going on.

The soldier who climbed the watchtower fell down the wooden ladder with a few arrows stuck in his body; Before the five border officers and soldiers could reach the gate of the station, three of them had already fallen, and several of the men guarding the gate of the station rushed up, and the remaining two unarmed soldiers screamed a few times and fell to the ground without their breath. Immediately after that, the officer commanding the soldiers in front of the big tent said the words "go and order the beacon" in one sentence, and his voice was cut off; The two border soldiers who escorted the pack were also killed by bows and arrows by the beacon by the big tent.

The Tuqi people controlled the gate of the military station, and in fact controlled the entire military station, because this was only a small military station connecting the grain transportation channel between Beizheng and Ruqizhai, with only three tents and no more than two garrisons, even if you count the two border soldiers who came with the pack team, it was only thirty people, which was roughly the same as the number of Tuqi soldiers; What's more, the Turquoise people took the lead in taking the lead, and when they came up, they effectively suppressed the counterattack of the border army with bows and arrows, and shot and killed all the officers in the military station one after another, and the more than 10 border troops that had lost their command at the moment did not have the combat effectiveness of the formation at all, and some of them did not even have weapons, but just huddled together in a chaotic manner, looking at the enemy around them in panic. It is clear that the rout of the border army is already an inevitable result.

The Turts knew this well, and after shooting the last of the archers of the border army, they did not rush to increase their gains, but vigilantly surrounded the remaining frontier soldiers in the middle, and then one of the Turts raised his hand and bowed and fired an arrow into the air.

The mournful whistle immediately echoed in mid-air.

The whistle had not yet subsided, and the same whistle could be heard farther to the north.

In just a few moments, a large cloud of dust was raised in the northern river, and it roared southward like a yellow dragon swept by a strong wind, and the rumbling sound of horses' hooves was inseparable, just like the huge waves crashing against the reef on the shore when the tide of the sea was high...... Clearly, the Malaysian team of the Turquoises was already in sight.

"Run!" Shang Cheng said hurriedly. When the pack team was chaotic just now, he still dragged Liu Laozhu, and by the way, he also pressed Zhao Shishi, who was so frightened that he was headless, and his companions to the ground. He felt that since the outpost of the Tukuts ignored the packmen, then they must have been prepared for this kind of thing, so they let the packers scatter and flee for their lives, otherwise they would also pass on the news of the Tukuts' southward movement if they escaped casually. There must be a way for the Turks to deal with this situation! You can't just run around! See clearly, wait for the opportunity! So he'd rather miss the golden opportunity to escape than wait and see. Besides, from what the Turquoises had just done, there would be no danger for them to stay here for the time being. But now they can't stay any longer, and the great army of the Turbidians will speak, and it is really difficult to say what will happen at that time, even if they are not killed for a while, and they will be tied up as slaves in the steppe to be forced to do hard labor, and in the end they will only die. Run, run for your life, run for your life now!

"Where are you running?" Stone gritted his teeth and asked with a swollen face.

Where to run? Definitely not in the north! Since the people of Tuqi can touch here without knowing it, it means that the village is over. Not to the south! Thirty miles south from here is a flat river, and no matter how much a person can run, can he still outrun the war horses of the Tuqi people? Shang Cheng turned his eyes and saw the woods where the Tuqi people were hiding, one by one, the miscellaneous woods stretched sparsely and densely all the way to the foot of the mountain, just blocking the sight of the Tuqi people! The woods can also hold back the horses of the Turbats!

"Into the woods! Run towards the bottom of the mountain! I'll count one, two, three, and let's run together! ”

Shi nodded vigorously, gasped twice, stared at the woods thirty or forty steps away, and waited for Shang Cheng to speak.

"One, two......"

Stone's companion had already jumped out with his body straight.

Liu Laozhu also stood up with him. As soon as he stood up, a long arrow was nailed into the socket of his neck, and clusters of black arrows with blood and flesh pierced out of the other side of his neck in an instant. His eyes were bulging, his throat gurgling, one hand clutching his neck, the other waving wildly in front of him, as if to grasp something, but the man slowly fell to his knees. His body twitched several times, and suddenly his head tilted and his body went limp, and he fell to the ground, and then he never moved again.

Stone's companion did not run away, he only ran a few steps before three long arrows pierced his shoulder blades and thighs, and fell to the ground struggling in agony, wailing......

Seeing the dead Liu Laozhu and his injured companions, Shang Cheng didn't even have a trace of expression on his face, he stared at the woods not far away, and the last number burst out from between his teeth:

“…… Three! ”

Zhao Shishi immediately jumped over, grabbed his companion's hand, and tried to pull him up.

"Let's go! Come on! Shang Cheng grabbed the stone from the side and pushed him forward so hard that he staggered, that is, this stagger, so that the arrow that was originally shot at the stone shot into the air. Then his right shoulder seemed to be struck by something, and then his shoulder was cold, and a bloodied arrow was silently piercing the ground in front of him.

"Hide behind the horse! Don't stop! Run! Run! ”
