Chapter II. 122. The Battle of the Prey
After a night of planning in the Jincheng Mansion, a few people present went separately to do their own things, just like the assembly line factory is generally divided and cooperated, and the things made in each link, the parties do not know the whole picture, and finally after Shen Gui personally summarized and assembled, the curtain was lifted and soared into the sky.
However, the most critical part of the "inverted swallow machine" designed and developed by Shen Gui himself was not handed over to his own people.
Today is Qingming, and it is also one of the most important festivals in the hearts of the people. Even if the people of Huayu Mainland have a hard time, they will go to the graves of their ancestors to pay respects every Qingming Festival. Wealthy merchants and noble families repaired ancestral tombs on a large scale, and poor families burned some paper money to place offerings, all in order to express their respect and nostalgia for their ancestors.
Of course, the Yan family, the royal family of Youbei Third Road, also came to the Yongling Hall in the palace today under the leadership of Yan Jiuning, the patriarch of the Yan clan, and started this year's Qingming ancestor worship ceremony. Except for the prince Yan Day, who has fallen into the psychological shadow, everyone is dizzy in the face of these red tapes.
And Fang Junping, the commander of the Flying Bear Army's escort battalion, and his ten tired brothers finally found what they were looking for on the day of Qingming.
"Battalion commander! Check it out! Is this the person we're looking for? ”
A young man in his early twenties, with a pair of big eyes at this time, shouted at his battalion commander Fang Junping with joy on his face. Fang Junping heard the sound of the horse flying over, and without waiting for the war horse to stop, he turned over and landed, rounded his arm and slapped it, directly slapping the young man's face:
"Don't shout! We're in front of the East Customs now, and if those Beiyan dogs hear it, we don't know what trouble we're going to encounter! ”
Fang Junping lowered his voice and taught this little brother with fluff on his mouth a lesson. Seeing that he had a look of embarrassment on his face after making a mistake, he gently made up for his ass again:
"Take your credit, go on alert!"
The young man was made up by him again, but he was not angry but happy, his face resurfaced with excitement, turned over and greeted the remaining nine brothers, surrounded Fang Junping in the middle, and guarded from a distance.
Fang Junping looked at the direction where the young man was standing just now, and a hand that was faintly peeking out of the soil. The hand looked swollen and thick, only the thumb and tail fingers remained on the palm, and the middle three were gone. As Fang Junping carefully ploughed the earth, a pungent smell of corpses filled the air.
Fang Jun, who was forbidden to his nose, was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly increased the speed of his hand, wanting to dig up the corpse quickly and completely from the ground, but at this moment, there was a roaring sound of horses' hooves behind him.
"What people! Hold it! If you don't stand still, you will release the arrow! ”
The young man who had been slapped and had a red palm print on his face opened his bow and arrows, and shouted loudly in a clear voice, while the other nine guards of the battalion also looked around for a hiding place and prepared for battle.
"What are you Northern barbarians yelling about? Put all your longbows and arrows on the ground, and stand in a row for me, if not......"
The sound of this reply came from far and near, and three cavalry figures appeared from the direction from which the sound of horses' hooves came. Behind these three figures, a small group of cavalry galloped towards him. Judging by the density of the horses' hooves, this group was by no means less than fifty horsemen.
Beiyan is an inland dynasty, and there is an extreme shortage of excellent horse breeds. However, the horses on which these cavalry rode were all tall and strong Western horses. Although the performance of this Western Xinjiang horse on the battlefield is extremely mediocre, its body shape is extremely beautiful, and it is really the best choice for honor and ornamentation. Therefore, the price of this kind of horse is also the most expensive in Beiyan, and even the price of some of the best horses can already compete with the sweaty horses from foreign countries.
Judging from the price and quantity of horse breeds alone, we know that this Northern Yan cavalry is definitely not an ordinary sentry scout.
"We are the commander of the Youbei Flying Bear Army, Yan Chongwu, and the people who guard the camp under his command. I came to look for someone on the order of the commander, and I also reported to your marquis in advance, and I came to search in front of the East Customs with your permission. Since we have no transgression, why do you stop it for no reason? ”
When Fang Junping heard the sound of horses' hooves, he knew that a hard hand was coming, he took a long breath and frowned tightly, put down the corpse in front of him first, and reasoned with the leader of the comer.
"Oh? Have you reported to my lord in advance? But I didn't receive the handsome order from the Hou Ye! This place is the sphere of influence of my Beiyan East Customs, and it is a capital crime for you Youbei barbarians to trespass on Beiyan! However, the number of people who read you to break through the level is not large, and there should be no intention of secretly attacking, I will be the master and spare you this time; If I let the general find out in the future. If you barbarians sneak into my Beiyan territory, you will definitely have no return. Now, grab your tail and get out of here! ”
The person led by this team of "honor guard cavalry", after saying these big words with guns and sticks, looked back at his brother behind him, and laughed with his big mouth open. Under the infection of his rampant appearance, even the guards on duty above the city gate not far away laughed loudly and echoed it. These laughter were mixed with thick mockery and disdain, piercing the ears of every Flying Bear Escort Battalion brother like sharp arrows.
Fang Junping clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes couldn't stop looking at the big gun tied to his horse's side. He was already a bastard, even if the other party was well-armed, with swords and guns, in his eyes, he was like a lamb to the slaughter, and there was no deterrence to speak of. He was confident in himself and his brothers, and as long as he charged back and forth three times, he would be able to deal with these "honor guards" full of big talk.
It's a pity that long before he set off, his own marshal had already explained, and he resolutely did not allow himself to have friction with the Beiyan people, and tried his best to fight back and scold and not return the mouth. Although Yan Chongwu is as close as a family with his brothers in the army on weekdays, he has always been iron-faced and selfless in business.
"Good...... Since you Beiyan have torn up the agreement, then we will go back to the camp now and let the two bosses discuss it again. ”
Fang Junping gritted his teeth and restrained his monstrous anger, and after replying angrily, he shouted to the young man who was slapped:
"Put the body of the master mother on horseback, let's go! ”
The young man also nodded with a wide range of eyes, and turned around to go to the corpse, intending to do what was ordered......
"Slow~!"
Before the young man's hand touched the corpse, the "Captain of the Honor Guard" said slowly:
"I didn't expect that you Youbei people are not only different from the mountain barbarians, but now you don't even have ears very good? I said tell you eleven barbarians to get out, did you say you should bring something? General, I will also tell you that every grass and tree in front of this Eastern Customs is from our Northern Yan Dynasty! How different are you and thieves in such behavior now? ”
Fang Junping looked at the corpse on the ground, and came to the side of the war horse with a brisk step, and with a shake of his shoulders, he raised his gun in his hand:
"This is the body of my housewife, you Beiyan people even want to forcibly stay? If it's a normal thing, it doesn't matter if you take a step; If you want to prevent me from bringing back the body of my mother, then you have to see if the blade in your hand is sharper than your teeth! ”
Fang Junping said that his waist and abdomen secretly exerted force, his shoulders did not shake his hands, and he only relied on the strength of his waist and abdomen, and he instantly shook out four or five phantoms of the tip of the spear! There is a saying that is 'moon sticks, year knives, and big guns for a lifetime', just by shaking out four or five phantoms in an instant, it has already stunned the understanding people present.
"Wow! Who to scare? What if the gun is good? Are you a general, am I a three-year-old naughty boy? Otherwise, you will come back with a few more tricks, and see if I am afraid of your general? I also told you, as long as you play a good ......" Speaking of this, the "honor guard captain" took out a handful of copper coins from his arms and threw them in the direction of Fang Junping......
"If you play well, I will be rewarded! Hahahaha......"
These words can be regarded as smashing the monstrous flames created by Fang Junping. Behind him, the Northern Yan cavalry also opened their throats and laughed, and a few people also threw a few copper plates from their waist seals and threw them towards these "Youbei barbarians".
Fang Junping couldn't bear it anymore, and instantly put the handsome's entrustment behind him, slapped the end of the gun with his back hand, and the whole big gun flew out in the air; And his right foot used all his strength to step backwards, and at the same time as he made a muffled sound, the whole person flew out a foot away, and instantly it was level with the spear in mid-air; He holds the barrel of the gun with both hands, his left hand in front of him to stabilize the tip of the gun, and his right hand on the end of the barrel of the gun behind his back, so that he can adjust the gun style at any time; The whole person fused with the big gun in his hand, and flew towards the horseman who was not inferior to the exit.
Fang Junping's martial arts are a kind of wild way summed up by relying on the experience and skills obtained from the battlefield. The body technique is extremely fast, the moves are concise, and in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two has been shortened by more than half. Fang Junping's eyes breathed fire and clenched his teeth, and the tip of the spear carried the sound of breaking the wind like thunder, and went straight to the throat of the other party......
"Stop~Stop!"
As soon as the cavalry captain's slow words came out, Fang Junping stopped his figure in response and staggered directly in place; And Fang Cai's fateful blow, which was originally Mount Tai's overwhelming, suddenly disappeared invisibly. Fang Junping was shocked by the strength he had withdrawn, and although he was now stable in his body, his entire back was no longer the slightest sensation.
I saw that the fifty cavalry of the Northern Yan had a new crossbow in their hands. A crossbow head trapped in an arrow slot. Shining with a chilling metallic light, the reflection of the sunlight pierced the eyes of the guards of the Hidden North.
"This kind of repeater is a new type of weapon that I bought from Nankang at a great price, no more, no less, a full sixty. I won't bluff you, if you say that you use this thing on the battlefield, it's pure fart; But if it is used against you waste, and there is still one person who can stand after three breaths, I will eat all sixty crossbows! ”
Fang Junping looked at his smug eyes, and knew that he didn't bluff people with big words. Looking back at his brothers, they were all stunned young in their early twenties, still fearless in the face of these crossbows that exuded the aura of death, and they all looked at themselves expectantly, as if they were waiting for their command to charge. Of course, it is also possible that these children have never seen a repeater, and they don't know how powerful this thing is in medium and long distances, as well as on small-scale battlefields......
“…… Okay, count yourself ruthless. I flew the bear military Junping wrote it down. Brethren, go! ”
Fang Junping, who was cruel and murderous on the battlefield, finally let down this breath, turned around and beckoned his ten brothers, and retreated in the direction of the Flying Bear Army camp.
