Chapter 210: Encirclement and Annihilation (II)
The night was hazy, and the woods were pitch black, making it impossible to see the exact situation.
Wang Can listened to Sun Jian's words, frowned, and was silent.
If Wang Can is a little sure of the person who shot the voice with his voice, but it is very difficult to hit the key point of the speaker. After all, people are tall, short, fat and thin, and they can't judge these objective conditions just by their voices. In other words, it is impossible to determine the exact location of the speaker's head, heart, and throat.
Sun Jian frowned when he saw Wang Can, and said, "First, if you can't shoot, attack it." From the sound of the woods, it is surmised that there should not be too many Xiliang soldiers, and we have more than a hundred soldiers, which is enough to deal with them. ”
Wang Can nodded and asked, "The soldiers have already surrounded this place, right?" ”
Sun Jian nodded and said, "Don't worry, it's already surrounded." ”
Just as Wang Can was about to speak, a soldier stepped on a dead branch, and after the dead branch was trampled off, it made a crisp sound. The soldier who stepped on the dead branch opened his mouth wide and instinctively wanted to exclaim, but fortunately, the colonel standing next to the soldier was quick and reached out to cover the soldier's mouth. Rao was like this, the colonel and the soldiers all stepped on the dead branches, making a clicking sound, which alerted Wei Xu and Hou Cheng, who were standing in the distance.
"Who?"
Wei Xu turned his head, looked at the place where the dead branch made a sound, and suddenly shouted.
Hou Cheng also turned his head, staring at the distance with wide eyes, trying to see something from the distance, but the response to him was still silent and did not respond.
No one rushed out, and Hou Cheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Depending on the situation, it should be the sound caused by livestock running through the woods.
Sun Jian saw that the Xiliang soldiers in the woods were alert, and immediately prepared to mobilize the soldiers.
Wang Can stretched out his hand to stop Sun Jian, squinted his eyes slightly, picked up his bow and arrows and put them on the bowstring, and aimed at the person who was talking in the distance.
In the woods, Hou Cheng saw Wei Xu's strange expression, like a frightened bird, and pouted and said, "Wei Xu, don't scare yourself. I guess the beasts in the woods ran over here and stepped on the sound of dead branches, so you don't have to be so nervous, nothing happens. Besides, we're all ready to leave anyway, so there's nothing to worry about. ”
Wei Xu ignored Hou Cheng and shouted again: "Whoever is over there, if you don't come out again, I'm going to kill someone with a knife." ”
Wei Xu felt unsafe in his heart, and once again made threatening words, these words reached Hou Cheng's ears, and he was extremely disappointed in Wei Xu, a big man, he was so timid. Just as Hou Cheng was slandering in his heart, a shrill sound suddenly sounded in the woods.
A bow and arrow came out of the string and headed straight for Wei Xu.
"Sure enough, there are people!"
Wei Xu suddenly realized, knowing that he must have been tricked, almost the moment the thought flashed in his mind, Wei Xu didn't care about what was behind him, and immediately fell backwards and fell to the ground intuitively.
"Whew!"
The bow and arrow burst through the air, and it could pass over the top of Wei Xu's fallen body.
"Bang!"
Wei Xu fell to the ground, his body was poked by the protruding dead branches on the ground, and he grinned in pain, but his face also showed a look of joy. If he hadn't reacted quickly and fell backwards in an instant, he would have been shot by the bow and arrow that came at him, and he would have been seriously injured if he didn't die. When Wei Xu was happy in his heart, he was full of worry.
Obviously, the extinguishing of the torches in Sun Jian's camp was intentional.
At this time, Wei Xu had mixed feelings in his heart, and knew that it would be difficult to escape this catastrophe.
"Hou Cheng, there is an ambush, retreat, retreat!"
Wei Xu rolled over and got up from the ground, and immediately retreated into the woods. Hou Cheng was also stunned by what had just happened, he always thought in his heart that the night was hazy, and it was impossible for Sun Jian to leave the camp with the soldiers, but things were always unexpected, Sun Jian was not afraid of the ambush and led people out of the camp.
Hou Cheng didn't care about anything else, followed behind Wei Xu, and hurriedly ran towards the depths of the woods.
Wang Can saw that the bow and arrow did not hit Wei Xu, shook his head and sighed, the arrow shot just now, if Wei Xu's reaction was a little slow, Wang Can would have succeeded, but it was a pity...... Seeing that he couldn't shoot the people hiding in the woods, Wang Can said to Sun Jian: "Brother Wentai, give the order, attack, don't let them gather together to break through!" ”
"Kill!"
When Sun Jian heard this, he opened his throat and roared, and the soldiers around him also shouted in response.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, a torch was lit in the dark woods. I saw Cheng Pu grinning and smiling, holding a burning torch in his hand to illuminate the dim and hazy woods, so many people only took weapons, Cheng Pu actually took a torch, which made Wang Can stunned. Wang Can looked excited and said happily: "General Cheng, good job!" As he spoke, Wang Can had already picked up a bow and arrow from the quiver and aimed at Wei Xu, who was running rapidly.
"Medium!"
Wang Can opened his mouth and shouted, and the bow and arrow came out of the string.
With the shining light of the torch in Cheng Pu's hand, Wang Can could already vaguely see the people running in front of him, although the light was a little dim, but this was enough for Wang Can to aim at Wei Xu. As long as he can see the general appearance, Wang Can is confident that he can shoot. The bow and arrow were wrapped in huge force, fast and fast, and without any deviation, they shot directly into Wei Xu's back.
"Poof!"
The arrow broke through Wei Xu's armor and pierced Wei Xu's back and shot in the heart.
"Ahem!"
Wei Xu coughed lightly, his body staggered, and he almost fell to the ground.
"Run, run!"
Wei Xu opened his hand and shouted loudly, the expression on his face was anxious and frightened, and after spreading his legs and running forward for two steps, his legs lost his strength and fell directly to the ground.
"Run, run......" When he spoke, the corners of Wei Xu's mouth overflowed with red blood, he opened his eyes wide and looked at the dim and dark woods, feeling that the strength of his whole body was gradually lost as his heart slowly stopped, and the light in front of him became darker and darker, and finally it was pitch black, and he couldn't see anything......
"Wei Xu!"
Hou Cheng glanced back at Wei Xu, and saw that Wei Xu was lying on the ground without a sound, and his heart became even more flustered.
"Plop! Thump! ……”
When running fast, Hou Mingming felt his heart pounding, getting more and more urgent, faster and faster, as if his heart was about to jump out.
"Poof!"
Another bow and arrow were fired, hitting the thumping heart without any deviation.
"Ahh
Hou Cheng roared loudly, feeling like he was about to suffocate. The heart that was beating very fast suddenly slowed down, and the slow beating made Hou Cheng's chest feel stuffy, and his brain was as empty as white paper. Immediately, Hou Cheng felt that his eyes had become hollow again, and the blazing torches became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a spark and disappeared, the surrounding woods and figures were invisible, and everything disappeared.
Hou Cheng's body collapsed and fell to the ground, the corners of his mouth were bleeding, his eyes were white, and he was out of breath.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
……
The sound of killing in the woods shook the sky, and the soldiers who formed a circle gradually narrowed the circle, and the more than ten Xiliang soldiers who were surrounded looked frightened, rushed left and right, and could not break out of the range of the soldiers. In less than half an hour, more than a dozen Xiliang soldiers were all killed. The speed of eliminating Hou Cheng and Wei Xu was very fast, and there were almost no difficulties.
Sun Jian watched Wang Can shoot Hou Cheng and Wei Xu in an instant with a little light, and he felt a little frightened in his heart.
Such exquisite archery skills can be called terrifying.
Sun Jian smiled and said, "First, it's hard work." ”
Wang Can said: "What's not hard, fortunately, General Cheng lit the torch, otherwise it would be a little difficult for us to solve this group of people, after all, it will take a lot of time to find a place in the forest to hide." In this battle, General Cheng made great contributions. ”
Cheng Pu walked over and said with a smile: "The king is too good-guarded, Cheng Pu just thinks that it is too dark in the woods, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to catch Xiliang soldiers, so he specially brought a torch, but I didn't expect it to come in handy." ”
Wang Can smiled and said, "Bring all the dead back to the camp, gather your soldiers and horses, and prepare for battle!" ”
Sun Jian nodded and said, "That's right, things should be done sooner rather than later, we have to hurry up." ”
