4. The counterattack of the gang

The convoy stretched out, and the mule cart where I was was looking forward was a mile, and looking back, I couldn't see the end for a while. Most of the carts were pulled by mules or oxen, and there were very few horse-drawn carts, and if they did, they were very weak horses. Presumably, in this era, high-quality horses, as a strategic resource, must be tightly controlled by the army, and the people have very little. After all, its function can be completely replaced by other livestock, and giving priority to improving the core competitiveness of the military is certainly the top priority of those in power.

Riding alongside us is the "fellow villager" Ye Gong's family. Ye Gong's family of nine has been good friends with "my" family for generations, and this time it was he and his eldest son and eldest grandson who came to relieve the grain, and his wife and son with their eldest daughter-in-law, newborn great-grandson and second son are still in Penglai.

In Ye Gong's own words, he will be Jiazi this year, the eldest son Ye Cheng is not confused, and the eldest grandson Ye is not sorry for the weak crown. This time, the three men in the family came out together, and one responded to the call of the governor of Qi Du, striving to be a man and be loyal to the country; Second, the children and grandchildren learn more family martial arts, if they can be broad-eyed in the ranks, they can also try to be a wife and a son; The three go for thousands of miles, and the men gather, so there is a good response.

I sat under him and nodded silently, from Penglai to Jinzhou, four hundred and dozens of kilometers, in ancient times, was it thousands of miles away?

According to Ye Gong, this year is the eighth year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, that is, in 1580 AD, the reign of Mingshenzong, Zhang Juzheng's first assistant, and Qi Jiguang's border. Now it is September, the grain is ripe in various places, and the military is paid according to the routine, which is also a good time to gather the team and practice the autumn hunt.

I raised my eyes to look at Ye Cheng, the eldest son of Ye Gong, who was called Uncle Ye by "me", a middle-aged man with an ancient appearance and thick bones, obviously a crop man, but like a man in the army.

Since the death of "my" father and grandson Zheng three years ago, this Uncle Ye once proposed to his uncle-in-law Yan Lei that he was willing to raise "me" for his deceased brother Sun Zheng, and teach "me" a family martial arts, which can also change the decadence of "me" in the past and strengthen the body. Uncle Yan Lei knew that he was good friends with his deceased father, and he also had the intention to let "me" learn some skills, but who knew that "I" had always been lazy, high or low, afraid of the heavy, unwilling to suffer from the pain of flesh and skin, and the fatigue of exercise, so he shirked in every possible way.

Uncle Ye saw that "I" was indeed not a material to be made, and he was not motivated, so he no longer mentioned this matter, but took care of "me" in every way. And "I" can only mingle with Yanzhu and other women all day long, and in the end I have nothing to do, and I have no strengths, so I have to live with my husband this time......

I'm very embarrassed in my heart, this "me" is really TM...... It's obscene! Ming Dynasty otaku! Costume waste! The second generation of scum who can't afford it! Thinking about this, I can't help but be a little troubled, if this goods ...... Well, even if "I" can be a little more diligent and do some exercise properly, I won't be as powerless as I am now! The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I became, and I couldn't help frowning.

Uncle Ye was very puzzled when he saw that I was distressed, so he touched my head and asked, "Uncle Su knows that San'er has always been sorrowful, and has always adhered to the principle of being happy today, even if he cries tomorrow, why is he so distressed today?" ”

I was very embarrassed, and I couldn't help but smile awkwardly but politely, and it took me a long time to ask: "Uncle, I don't know if you still count the things you said that day about teaching me family martial arts?" ”

Uncle Ye's eyes lit up, and he was about to speak, but he heard a chaotic noise outside! There were people on all sides who shouted "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! "All of a sudden, the whole convoy was in chaos! The officers and men of the garrison, led by the leader, began to form a defensive formation, ready to defend against the enemy who did not know where to go.

Seeing this, Ye Gong was not flustered, and raised his voice: "No regrets!" Get in the car! ”

A loud voice sounded outside the car: "Yes! Grandfather! In a moment, a sturdy young man lifted the curtain and got into the car, it was Ye Gong's eldest grandson, Uncle Ye's son, "my" good brother, and good playmate Ye Buregret.

The 20-year-old man looks very energetic, wearing green soap all over his body, a short shirt with arrow sleeves, a height of 182 and above, bronzed skin, strong and strong muscles, smart eyes, a bright spirit, a horsewhip pinned to his waist, and a dagger stuck in the other side. This line, this style, compared with "me" rookie, it is really heaven and earth, no wonder my cousin Yanzhu has blue eyes for him, and is picky about "me" in every way, if I want to say that a normal person will be so good!

Ye Buregret "I" Brother Ye entered the carriage and called to Ye Gong: "Grandfather! He turned to face Ye Cheng and said, "Father! He turned his head to look at me and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, San'er, my brother is here!" "I can't help but get angry.

Ye Gong nodded and asked, "Grandson, what's disturbing outside?" ”

Brother Ye smiled and said, "I heard from the official army that it was a Tatar spy who infiltrated the Great Wall and made a special trip to disturb my baggage convoy. The officers and troops have already formed a formation! ”

Ye Gong nodded, and then asked, "How much is the enemy army?" ”

Brother Ye replied: "I don't know the specifics, according to Captain Mu's speculation, there are no more than 100 people!" Grandfather, we ......"

Listening to his words, he was eager to try. Uncle Ye interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "The matter of defense, we have our own officers and soldiers, I will wait and watch." Then he turned his head to look at me and said, "Don't panic, San'er, with your uncle here, I will be able to protect you!" I'll let you call your uncle-in-law and cousin over if you don't regret it! ”

I was touched in my heart, this family is so good to "me"! was about to speak, but I heard a scream outside, it was a woman, the voice was very familiar, it turned out to be Yanzhu! I changed color, Uncle Ye and Brother Wu regret moved faster, and the two of them touched from under the seat, and they took out long knives in their hands, and they didn't speak, and suddenly rushed out of the car! I was just about to go out to help, when I suddenly remembered that I was unarmed, so I turned back to Ye Gong and asked, "Grandfather Ye, do you have a blade to lend me?" ”

Ye Gongwan said: "What is the use of Xiao San'er to have a blade? Beware of hurting yourself! ”

I'm ashamed, grandma's little junior! I'm not a junior! But he could only say helplessly: "Grandfather Ye, the matter is urgent, I will go out to help, don't worry, I will be careful!" ”

Ye Gong said happily: "It seems that your illness may not be a bad thing, but you have gone to a cowardly atmosphere!" As he spoke, he turned around and groped for a moment in the box behind him, took out a short knife and handed it over, I reached out to take it, but he grabbed my wrist and said: "The courage is commendable, but you can't be brave, and you will lose your life in vain!" When it is time to divide life and death, do not rush forward recklessly! ”

I nodded hurriedly!

Seeing this, Ye Gong let go and said, "Go!" I turned around and was about to get out of the car, when Ye Gong's voice came: "This blade is called Lishuang, it is my family heirloom, and I will give it to you today, be sure to take it!" ”

I cried out, "Got it! "The body has escaped from the carriage!

It was evening, the sky outside was already misty, and the torches used for the lighting of the convoy were like a long dragon. I didn't think too much about it, so I turned around and ran towards my uncle's car Yan Lei. Running to the front, I heard Uncle Ye's voice: "Tartar!" Come on! "I rushed over, only to see a samurai dressed as a foreign race, drawing a scimitar from the shoulder of my uncle, Yan Lei!

Uncle Ye was furious, and he was swinging a knife diagonally at his neck! The alien warrior is very flexible, raising his sword sideways, and the two knives hit each other, making a crisp sound of "dang"! The body retreated with the momentum of the sword, and his eyes turned to Ye Buregret, who was fighting with another Tatar warrior not far away and protecting Yan Zhu!

Uncle Ye followed his eyes, and was suddenly in a hurry! Although he has solid sword skills, he is not superior in footwork, and this Tatar warrior is very smart, if he abandons him and turns to attack Ye with his accomplices, he will not regret it, but he is afraid that it will be difficult to parry without regrets! I wanted to remind him out loud, but I saw that I didn't regret that I was fighting with my opponent, and my state was burning, and I was only afraid that it would be more dangerous to be distracted at this time, and he couldn't advance or retreat for a while!

I looked at it from the side, at present, I, Uncle Ye, and Ye Buregret are exactly in an isosceles triangle, I am at the apex, and the two of them are the farthest away, at this moment, I am the only person who can help Ye Buregret! But this body ...... I hate that!

Too late to repent for "me", I immediately pulled out the dagger and drank! Frost off! What a good knife! The knife is about 30 centimeters long and is a long dagger similar to a hunting knife. In modern times, with modern steelmaking and forging art, this knife may be slightly rough and the steel quality is average. But I flicked it on the blade, and the hardness is estimated to be around 57, and the steel is flexible, which is definitely a rare treasure hundreds of years ago! I can't help but feel a little confident.

I held the dagger behind my right hand and hid it at my side, while I hid it behind my body. The Tatar warrior really reported the idea of defeating Ye Buregret first! He shook a knife, and took advantage of Uncle Ye's stiffness in waving the knife to parry, suddenly drew the knife and went straight to Ye Buregret's vest! Uncle Ye was in a hurry and shouted, "Where to go!" "But I can't catch up!

I hid behind the car, and when I saw the Tatar warrior getting closer and closer, I couldn't help but stabilize the dagger in my right hand! Although I have been a cleaner for many years, it is the first time I have met people like this! 8 Steps! 5 Steps! 3 Steps! 1 step! The Tatar warrior had already arrived in front of me, I squatted slightly, kicked my right leg violently, and with the strength of my waist and abdomen, my right arm held the frost from the bottom right to the top left, and swung towards the neck of the Tatar warrior! All you want is a one-hit kill! Just this body! This speed! Alas! Do your best!

This Tatar warrior is also really amazing, he saw the light of the sword light up, and he reacted very quickly! I didn't have time to swing my sword to block, and he broke his wrist like a strong man, and crossed my dagger with his right wrist! "Poof"! His right arm was broken at the elbow, but he was spared!

It's just that this knife completely aroused his ferocity, twisted his waist and swung his fist, and hit me with his left hand straight to my temple! When I saw that I missed a hit, I would be damned in the dark! But it is already unavoidable, fight! I swung out my right arm at this time, the dagger was in front, the move was already old, it was absolutely too late to draw the knife, between the lightning and flint, I did not retreat, but advanced, with the strength of my body, I sent the dagger forward with both hands! This is a desperate way to fight with one move in the dagger technique, called "Jade Shatter"! It's too late, it's fast, and I just hear another "poof", and the dagger reaches the body! Hit!

And I was also punched in the head by a Tatar warrior, and suddenly my eyes went black and I passed out!
