On the other side of the river, many people have already come into contact with the enemy. Although the number of the rangers was small, they were well-trained, swift, young and quick-witted, and they were able to shoot the enemy within range of their crossbow arrows.

These people did not dare to leave the shepherd's team and rush to this side of the river with confidence, and there was no way to take a lot of these people for a while, and the two sides fought in one place. However, a small group of people came from the upper reaches of the Poplar River, and they divided into two groups.

There were 200 men on the other side of the river, and it was intended to attract the main force of the pasture. And this small group of only fifty or sixty men, when they came near, each of them had a bright torch in their hands, and it seemed that they were the main part of the destruction of the pasture.

Just let them come and throw the oil-coated torches at the wooden stables and huts, and the poplar ranch will be in flames.

At that time, the people in the ranch will have to fight the enemy on the one hand, and save the fire and horses on the other, and the discerning person will know at a glance that this is not a good idea. The horses were tied to the stables at night, and the situation was even more out of control.

The three elevated towers have been lit with blazing beacon fires, illuminating the bottom as if it were day. As soon as the tall man got on the horse, the charcoal fire neighed and rushed out first. Behind him, the ordinary shepherds also rushed up with pitchforks and guillotine blades in their hands.

Even Lord Lu, Feng Zheng, and the ladies in the ranch were all in charge of the work, so as to deal with it. At this time, the attackers had already galloped closer, and when they saw that they had been discovered, they did not need to tiptoe to sneak in, and rushed over with a shout.

The two people who ran in the front had just thrown the torches in their hands as if they were about to throw them, when they were waved by the tall man, and they were cut to the ground with men and horses. The people behind were momentarily stagnant, but when they saw that the main forces in the pasture were on the other side of the river, and that there were only three officials with a group of shepherd women, they became emboldened again, and rushed up again with a shout.

In the distance, there was a sharp sound of hooves on both sides of the Baiyang River, and it was the arrival of reinforcements from Crossbow City and Gutun City.

The tall man cut down a few more, and the man who fell under the horse was viciously beaten with a guillotine and wooden stick by the shepherds who pounced on him, screaming and dying.

The reinforcements from the two cities were getting closer and closer, and the shouts could already be heard. It seems that there is no danger again. Some of the shepherds then got their hands free and ran back to extinguish the flames on the roofs of the two stables, where the horses neighed.

The rest of the enemy hurriedly threw out the torches in their hands, whether they were thrown on the roof or not, and with a whistle, turned their horses' heads and ran. And the people on the other side of the river also got the news, and avoided the reinforcements galloping from the crossbow branch city by night, and first fled into the mountains due west, bypassing these people, and fleeing to the mountain pass.

The fifty or sixty people who applied the fire here lost more than ten people in the blink of an eye, and when the little leader returned to his horse, he borrowed the light of the fire on the elevated highway and saw that the other party was led by a young red-robed official, he was a little unwilling, picked up his bow and arrows, and aimed at Gao Jun.

Lu Shanglou had already ridden over on his horse, and when he saw it, he reminded loudly, "Lord Gao, pay attention, someone has cast a cold arrow!" He shouted as he urged his horse to rush in front of the tall man.

And Master Gao not only saw the reinforcements of the two cities, but he also saw the arrows of the other party a long time ago, and he thought, the pasture is no longer in the way. Instead of dodging, he lowered the black knife in his hand.

Everything is not allowed to be fired, and the other party shoots an arrow! Lu Shanglou also happened to arrive at Pegasus and blocked the arrow for Lord Gao. The arrow hit Lord Lu's shoulder, and Lu Shanglou screamed in pain and turned over and fell off the horse.

The second arrow arrived again, but the tall man was still indifferent. From Lu Shanglou's self-sacrificing actions, the other party has already seen that this young man is a big official. After the arrow was fired, not only did it not leave, but it urged the mount and rushed towards Gao Jun with a long spear.

The tall man did not dodge, and the arrow was firmly struck in the left chest, and he shook his horse twice, and rolled down to the horse. One of his feet was still in the stirrup, and the charcoal fire did not dare to run around. It seemed to know that if it ran away, the tall man would be dragged and hurt again. But it stood still, raised its two front hooves high, and kicked at the incoming man's mount.

There are no people around the tall man who can fight, they are all civil officials and shepherds, and when they saw the tall man fall off the horse, these people rushed up to resist with a hula. A shepherd was stabbed in the chest and fell down screaming.

The man who released the arrow was a small leader, and his kung fu was a little good, and he stabbed Muzi but still did not give up, and wanted to make up for another shot in the body of the red-robed official who had fallen off the horse. So he looked at the tall man on the ground and raised his spear viciously and stabbed it.

But there was a thud not far from his side, and then a scimitar flew in the air, and after brushing his neck, it still flew out and fell to the ground seven or eight feet away.

Blood splashed, this person fell off the horse, and it was Fan Ying and Siqing who arrived.

Siqing's horse approached, ran forward a few steps first, took off the stirrup with one foot, leaned lightly on the horse, hooked the saddle on the tip of one toe, leaned over and grabbed the scimitar on the ground, and sat back in the saddle.

After Liu Yuru called them to help Master Gao, she and Fan Ying didn't dare to delay for a while, crossed the Jiaohe River, crossed Jinshaling, and inquired about the way of the Baiyang River with the people of Gutun City on this side of the valley, and ran all the way down.

They finally saw the pasture in the hazy night on the horizon not far away, and they felt as if the tall man was right in front of them, and the speed of the horse couldn't be faster.

But when they were about to arrive, three fires suddenly lit above the pasture, and the chaotic situation on both sides of the Poplar River was suddenly reflected. The two of them knew that something was going on on the ranch, so they rushed to help.

They all saw the scene of the tall man being hit by an arrow and falling from his horse, and Siqing had no other way to throw a scimitar in his hand, which ended in the man's life.

Which of these two sisters are anyone, few of them can resist in the chaotic army. As soon as they arrived, the attackers had no intention of fighting, and left a dozen dead bodies behind and fled. On the way, he encountered reinforcements from Gutun City, and screamed for his life in a knife shadow, but none of them escaped.

Fan Ying and Siqing ran back, jumped off their horses to see Master Gao, and saw that he had a sharp arrow in his chest, his eyes were closed, his face was like white paper, and there was no trace of blood.

The two of them were scattered, and they commanded the two adults to carry Gao and Lu to the wooden house. Lirong saw Master Gao walk out of the wooden house, and it only took a moment for someone to carry her back, and she forgot to cry. As soon as he saw Fan Ying and Siqing, he briefly told the two of them about the abnormal behavior of the tall man, and how could the two of them listen carefully.

The one who was shot was a maid who had just married a maid and had no heartbeat. The other party's shot pierced him to the vital point, and he died to protect the tall man. A maid, his wife, came and fell on top of him and wept bitterly.

The city lords of the two cities led the people, just in time for the end of the battle, and helped Lord Feng clean up the battlefield outside, extinguished the fire, and then came in with Lord Feng to visit the injuries of Lord Gao and Lord Lu.

Lu Shanglou was shot from the back with an arrow and then to the shoulder, although the injury was not light, there was no fear of life. The tall man was not, the arrow was shot in the left chest, and the blood was already soaked through his robes. The tall man gritted his teeth, not responding at all to the people's calls.
