Chapter 176: Ten Arrows Leveling the Thief
When Tao Zhutu heard the news that a thief was coming, he began to check his quiver, and when he found that the quiver was not full, he asked the other sergeants for arrows.
When Tao Zhutu filled his quiver, Lan Ziyi and the sergeant also disputed each other.
Tao Zhutu listened to the slight upward movement of the corners of his mouth with a mocking smile, his face full of disdain,
He gently tugged on the reins to turn the horse, and urged the horse to go behind the Jihu camp, saying as he went:
"Young master, it's boring to look for death and life at every turn, and it's not a little daughter-in-law who just got married, it's very embarrassing to cry, make trouble, and hang yourself.
Go into the city, and I'll clean it up here. β
Lan Ziyi heard Tao Zhutu's bold words, and his heart sank, and he stretched out his hand to stop Tao Zhutu and said:
"Now that we are under the city, there is a way to enter the city, why should the third brother seek death?"
Tao Zhutu glanced back at Lan Ziyi in confusion and said:
"Young master, I didn't say I was going to die."
Then Peach Chase Rabbit smiled:
"Young master, just hurry up and lead the team into the city,
Since the city has been defending, it has always been Gao Yanzong's dead fat man who has been in the limelight on the city wall, and today I will let this group of demon thieves see the majesty of my Beizhen athletes. β
Lan Ziyi heard the words of Tao Cha Rabbit, and said in surprise:
"Third brother, don't be reckless, just now we Jihu Battalion's 3,000 people rushed into battle in a row and didn't get a bargain, now how can you stop the army of thieves alone?"
Tao Zhutu waved his hand and said disdainfully:
"I have been mixed in the army just now, and I didn't have a good time at all, and now I can't show my hand, so I won't let go of this opportunity?"
Then Tao Zhutu looked back at Lan Ziyi, with a bright smile on his face, and he urged:
"Young master, you can quickly take someone into the city, and I'll go back after taking care of the matter."
Lan Ziyi looked at Tao Zhutu's confident appearance, and he didn't know whether to be happy or worried, but it was certain that Tao Zhutu would definitely not enter the city first if he was not happy to fight outside the city today.
So Lan Ziyi turned around and ordered the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion to hurry into the city, and he himself followed the peach and rabbit.
Seeing this, Peach Rabbit was surprised and said:
"Young Master, what are you doing here? There is danger outside the city, so hurry into the city. β
ε °εδΉ says:
"You said that you have the ability to defeat all the thieves alone, then I will not be in danger with you outside the city.
Don't you dare to admit that you boasted about Haikou? β
Lan Ziyi thought that such a big talk about Tao Zhutu would allow him to enter the city with him obediently, but he didn't expect Tao Zhutu to just smile and shake his head, and said to Lan Ziyi:
"Then the young master has to be tighter behind me."
When Lan Ziyi heard this, his heart was settled, Tao Zhutu dared to take him outside the city, there must be a way to drink the thief, then he Lan Ziyi had to take a look at what kind of medicine was sold in Tao Zhutu's gourd.
In order to avenge the bombing of the dirt slope of the city just now, the thieves are now swarming to the gate of the west city.
The archers of the defenders on the city wall saw that the thieves were about to enter the firing range, and they all drew their bows and arrows and prepared to shoot.
"Young master, let the brothers in the city put away all the bows."
Lan Ziyi was taken aback when he heard this, but since Tao Zhutu dared to gamble with the lives of the two of them, he must have his own way.
So Lan Ziyi raised his head and shouted to the defenders on the city wall:
"Don't let your arrows go, put your bows away."
The defenders of the city were stunned when they heard this, but Lan Weihou couldn't help but listen to his orders, so the soldiers had to pull their bows and aim outside the city, but they didn't release their arrows.
Gao Yanzong also lay on the top of the city wall at this time, looking at the outside of the city, and shouted to this peach and rabbit:
"Momozaburo, are you gambling with your life?"
The peach rabbit under the city heard Gao Yanzong's roar and didn't answer, but just raised his hand to make a gesture to stop,
Peach Rabbit stopped not far behind the Jihu Camp Formation, watching the approaching thieves lower their heads and breathe a sigh of relief, and then slowly raised their heads.
As Tao Zhutu's head lifted little by little, the muscles of his whole body tightened little by little, his left hand pinched the bow arm bone joint and creaked, and his right hand slowly pulled the bowstring apart with an arrow.
After flattening his eyes, the bow and arrow in Taozhutu's hand have also been opened, at this time, his eyes are full of lightning, aggressive, and his eyes are absolutely without a trace of hesitation.
To the thieves who ran in front of him, Tao Zhutu shouted loudly:
"Listen, thief! In the chaos just now, you couldn't see Grandpa and my skills, but now the place is wide enough and there are enough visitors, so I will let you see my skills in Beizhen.
Listen! There are a total of nine of you rushing to the front, and I am now firing ten arrows in a row, from left to right, shooting the left eye, the right eye, the center of the eyebrows, the mouth, the throat, the heart, the mouth, the mouth, the center of the eyebrows, and the last arrow shoots the red tassel on the helmet of the official behind your team, you can watch it! β
After saying that, the peach chased the rabbit hand like an electric hair, opened the bow again and again, took the arrow, pulled the string, and released the arrow in one go like an electric turn, and only in the blink of an eye, ten arrows were released in a row.
The thieves who rushed to the front were a team of pikemen who were chasing and killing, and this team was originally preparing to resist the rain of arrows from the archers in the city, and catch up with the Jihu camp at the gate of the city in hand-to-hand combat.
To their surprise, the demon actually ordered that no arrows should be released, and some people came out to fight, and there were only two people who faced it.
It wasn't until the peach chasing rabbit spoke that the thieves understood that someone wanted to be a hero.
Although I heard that the Beizhen soldiers are accurate in riding and have good archery, but now the thieves are still some distance away from the city gate.
The thieves were convinced of this, and only took the words of the peach and rabbit as the wind in their ears, and then the pig rushed forward.
It wasn't until the thieves in the first row in front of him who were in the wind that they understood that the arrow was coming, and the nine people in the front row were hit by arrows at the same time, and the whole row fell to the ground collectively.
Because the first row fell en masse, the thieves who followed behind were tripped and stopped, causing all the charging pikemen to stop.
The thieves who rushed to the front stopped, and all the thieves who rushed behind them stopped, and the two armies actually stopped in front of the city gate and confronted each other.
The thieves who were hit by the arrows had all lost their breath, and the people behind turned the corpses over, and were surprised to find that the parts of these people who were hit by the arrows were all as Tao Zhutu said just now, and they were not biased at all, especially the one who was hit by the arrow in the heart, and the arrow pierced through the armor on his chest and went straight through the heart.
Someone behind the thief exclaimed:
"Red tassels! The red tassel is gone. β
The thieves looked back and saw that the red tassel on the helmet of the leader who was named by Tao Zhutu just now had been shot off, you must know that this was the leader of the thieves, who had been behind the thief formation, and was blocked by several rows of people in front.
The ten arrows of the peach chase rabbit kept the thieves in place and did not dare to move, and the thieves one after another, spread the news one after another, even if the leader of the thieves and the god stick scolded him, he could not stop the spread of the news.
It's also strange to say, if there is no shouting of Tao Zhutu, the thieves are still desperately rushing to the city wall, and the soldiers at the head of the city are intensively firing arrows, and the casualties suffered by the thieves must be much greater than the Tao Zhutu and one person releasing arrows, but that kind of casualties can't stop the thieves from advancing, and now the Tao Zhutu just a few arrows will stop the thieves, why is this?
Lan Ziyi stood behind Tao Zhutu, looking at this good brother who grew up with him in the same year, and the deterrent demon thief, his heart was happy, envious, and a series of puzzles, why? Why is an enemy that thousands of people can't stop organized by one man,
Then Lan Ziyi looked away, looked at the corpses that were dragged back by the thieves, and remembered the words of Tao Zhutu just now, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly understood the reason.
When the thieves charge in groups, although they have to face the rain of guns and arrows, as long as they are not hit, they will not die, as long as they are lucky enough, they can live to the end to eat and drink spicy, even if the casualty rate is amazing, but the dead may be someone else after all, for a single thief, death is like a lottery, as long as you don't draw the unlucky lot, there is no need to be afraid,
But the ten arrows of the peach rabbit do point to where to hit, although the overall damage to the thieves is far less than the salvo of thousands of people, but for each individual thief death is concrete, at this time continue to charge they will not be to draw lots to die, but will definitely die, as long as they are targeted by the peach rabbit, they will definitely die.
Although it is impossible for the power of Peach Chase Rabbit to annihilate all the thieves, but it will eliminate the thieves individually, and the whole of the thieves can indeed eliminate Peach Chase Rabbit at a very small cost, but who will think about it as a collective brain? Who wants to bear the inevitable death and leave the victory to others?
Thinking of this, Lan Ziyi smiled with relief, it turns out that things are so simple, they are not that complicated at all, and the complicated thing is that the fear in our hearts makes us unable to see those simple principles.
Peach Rabbit glanced at the thief intently, his murderous aura had always been contained in his eyes, and the target he swept over had a feeling of heartbeat stopping after being directly hit, which made the thief even more afraid to move. In the huge place outside the city gate, tens of thousands of people faced off by the two armies, and they were silent, and the silent air was so cold that it was condensed together, making it impossible to breathe.
Tao Zhutu looked at the thief and roared in a low voice:
"Who is not afraid of death and wants to come up?"
After a pause and no one answered, Tao Zhutu raised his voice and asked again.
This time, a god stick stood up in the crowd behind him and said loudly:
"Slay demons and eliminate demons, and ascend to immortals in one step!
If you kill this demon, it will be a great achievement, and after death, the endless glory of heaven awaits you, what are you waiting for? β
This god stick stood very far behind, he probably thought that he would not be able to shoot at such a distance.
But he was wrong,
When he spoke, Tao Zhutu silently took out the arrow, pulled the bow, aimed, and threw it at an angle.
At this moment, the soldiers of the two armies inside and outside the city forgot about the battle, and they silently watched as the arrow feather drew an arc in the air and fell, and then the arrow sealed the throat, and the god stick fell to the ground with a muffled sound, and could no longer utter a word.
Seeing that they had hit the thieves, the soldiers on the city wall shouted loudly, excitedly cheering that there was a marksman on their side,
The thieves were robbed of their morale, and some of the thieves who had lost their morale began to want to retreat.
Just when everyone thought that the peach chase rabbit would kill the west gate with one arrow, a heavy armored warrior came out of the thief array, and the armor on his body was exactly the same as the heavy armored thief who had climbed the city to cut the fence before, this thief was holding a big axe, and said as he walked:
"Demon, if you have the ability, you will shoot me to death with one arrow!"
