Chapter 54: Conspiracy
"Brother Situ, this Su Quan has the courage to give up his war horse and choose such a dirt slope for defense, but there are only more than 300 of them, how long can they defend?" Zhang Yun, who was twenty-eight or nineteen years old, looked at the defensive position formed by the Li cavalry on the dirt slope not far away at this moment, and said with disdain.

Situ Jian and Zhang Yun are about the same age, but at this time, he is not as optimistic as Zhang Yun, but said with a solemn expression: "If they give up the carriage and flee on horseback, we may not be able to catch up, but now we are defending in place, I don't know if there is no fear, we still have to take them down as soon as possible." ”
Zhang Yun was stunned when he heard this, and then said thoughtfully: "Also, although Master Li is a beauty, her martial arts are good, and riding a horse is not a difficult thing for her, it seems that we really have to hurry." ”
Situ Jian and Zhang Yun are not brainless people, otherwise they would not have been arranged for this operation, yes, they are all Rongcheng's people, they are the children of Rongcheng's Situ family and the Zhang family, they attacked Li Shishi this time, the reason is very simple, that is, they want to frame the Han army, let Li Guang lead the troops and the Han army to the death, and then they will reap the benefits of the fisherman.
It is undeniable that the Situ family and the Zhang family are both big families, and there are more than 50,000 people in the hands of the two families, but in Rongcheng, they are not afraid of the Meng family, the only thing they are afraid of is the Li family, or Li Guang.
Li Guang is an expert in military training, and he is also a master who is very capable of fighting, if Li Guang and the Han army are stumbling to the death, then the vitality will be greatly damaged, and then the two families will work together to destroy the Li family, and then join forces to deal with the Meng family, in this way, Rong Chengcheng is the world of the Situ family and the Zhang family, it can be said that this action is a conspiracy of the two families, a conspiracy against the Li family and the Han army!
"Order the attack, let me come in the first wave, it is said that Master Li is a superb beauty, the old man said that he would kill Master Li, but if we defeat these fighters and capture Master Li alive, maybe we can do something else first, what do you say, Brother Situ?" Zhang Yun had a hint of lewdness in his eyes, and said with a sneer.
Hearing this, Situ Jian, who was relatively stable, also had a different emotion on his face, and said: "Since this is the case, let's start, it's a pity that we don't have bows and arrows, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome, this breakthrough is not convenient for cavalry charges, and the losses may be greater, don't divide you and me, it's best to go all out!" ”
Nodding, Zhang Yun agreed, and then waved his hand, leaving two hundred cavalry just in case, and the other eight hundred knights dismounted one after another, and they wanted to attack on foot!
"Miss, they're attacking!" On a dirt slope that was not very high, Su Quan said solemnly to the beautiful figure beside him,
Hearing this, Master Li also had a hint of fierceness in his eyes, and said: "Three hundred soldiers, according to my father's instructions, each person is equipped with a bow and ten arrows, and three hundred people are three thousand arrows, so that the soldiers do not have to save feather arrows, if we can solve the enemy with these feather arrows, we will not have too many casualties." ”
"Miss, I'm just afraid that it's unrealistic, cavalry is generally not worthy of bows and arrows, and if the enemy doesn't take precautions, we will give the enemy a heavy blow, but if the enemy comes to his senses and has measures, the lethality of bows and arrows will be much lower." With a wry smile, Su Quan said.
"That's better than hand-to-hand combat with the fighters, tell the fighters that the first round of attacks must be concentrated!" At this moment, Master Li no longer has his usual gentleness, but has an aura of solemnity, and the whole person is like a general, with an aura that is difficult to be strict.
The two armies were only more than 100 meters apart, and the 800 soldiers soon began to rush forward, 100 steps, 90 steps, 80 steps, until 70 steps, on the dirt slope, Su Quan's eyes flashed, and shouted: "Shoot arrows!" ”
"Whoosh !!" Suddenly, hundreds of feathered arrows whizzed from the dirt slope.
"Ah~! Yes~! 、、、、、、" In an instant, dozens of charging soldiers fell, and a miserable scream sounded, and all the charging soldiers paused, with a touch of fear on their faces, how could there be bows and arrows here?
I didn't have time to think about it, these more than 700 soldiers turned their heads and ran, this time they pretended to be horse bandits, but they didn't wear armor, if they were hit by a feather arrow, they would either die or be injured, who was not afraid of death?
These soldiers ran fast, and the feathered arrows came quickly, and soon more than three hundred feathered arrows flew in, and after these charging warriors fell dozens of people again, the remaining warriors finally reached a safe place, out of the range of the archers.
"How is that possible? They were actually armed with bows and arrows? Seeing this scene, Zhang Yun and Situ Jian's faces changed at the same time, and they were forced to retreat without even getting close to the enemy in the first attack, which was a bad start, and what made them even more discolored was that these three hundred Li cavalry still had bows and arrows, which made their hearts sink.
The other party has bows and arrows, which Zhang Yun and Situ Jian did not expect, and it is what the family behind them did not expect, in their opinion, even if Li Guang's army has amazing combat effectiveness, but with one thousand against three hundred, there is still no problem, but the sudden extra bow and arrow made Zhang Yun and Situ Jian feel a little dazed.
"What should I do?" Zhang Yun was a little impatient.
"There is no good way, we can only fill it with human lives, Master Li and they must die, or Li Guang will definitely use troops against us." Situ Jian shook his head, and then said with a bright eye, "The enemy can't have too many arrows, let the soldiers scatter in all directions, remove the saddle as a shield, as long as the enemy's arrows are exhausted, then we can start hand-to-hand combat!" ”
"Damn it!" Zhang Yun said hatefully, there is no good way to do it now, the more than 300 people of Master Li must all die, otherwise the two of them will be finished.
Soon, the second wave of attacks also began, and each attacking warrior, holding a saddle in his hand, although he could not cover his whole body, but he could block the vital point, it was better than nothing.
In just one attack, eight hundred soldiers lost one hundred and forty-five, and now there are more than six hundred people, even so, Li Shishi, Su Quan and others on the dirt slope still feel a trace of pressure.
"Shoot the arrows!" When the enemy stepped into range again, Su Quan gave an order without hesitation, and hundreds of arrows flew out in an instant, but the effect was worse than before, the first was that the enemy did not have such a dense formation, and the second was that those saddles really blocked the arrows, except for a dozen unlucky soldiers who were shot in their hands and feet, and then the pain saw that they were killed by the second arrow after losing the saddle, everyone else was nothing.
"Good!" In the distance, Zhang Yun and Situ Jian were happy, they didn't expect that the role of this saddle was really not small.
The attacking warriors were also frightened, but after the first wave of arrows, they found that the enemy's attack did not seem to pose any threat, so they also fought in their hearts, screaming and killing towards the dirt slope.
