Chapter Forty-Nine: The Giant Tree Strikes

According to Duanmu Jian's confession, the locations of the Xidao Yi soldiers were Xiangyang Village, Long Village, Shouzheng Town and Shudeng Village. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info shows from the map that these locations happen to be distributed in the four corners of Beacon City, and the sinister intentions of the other party are self-evident.

In the early morning of the next day, Sang Baiqi, Sang Baiyan, Sang Baiyuan, plus a general of Beacon City, each led 5,000 soldiers and horses from the camp and rushed to the four places separately to clear these soldiers.

Sang Nan and Shen Yugong each took their own guards and took a boat along the Anbei River upstream, not knowing where they were going.

There were three boats in their group, Sang Nan and Shen Yugong sat in the second boat with the guards, and the first and last boats were full of brightly armored soldiers.

The three ships are all military ships, the hull is extremely strong, the deck is surrounded by 1.2 meters high battlements, but the size is not large, the head and tail are only 20 meters long, so there are not many soldiers on board, and there are no more than 1,000 people on board.

Because it is going against the current, the speed of the boat is not fast. Sang and Shen didn't seem to be in a hurry, they stood at the bow of the boat, drinking tea, and chatting unhurriedly.

It was the height of summer, and the weather was already hot, and there was not a single cloud in the sky, and it was as clean as a piece of blue silk.

The wind on the river has taken away the scorching heat of summer, and the boat has become very cool, listening to the turbulent flowing water, sipping fragrant tea and refreshments, and enjoying the scenery on both sides of the river.

Two hours had passed, and the ship had traveled more than twenty miles, and Shen Yugong kept fanning the wind with his hand, looking a little anxious.

"Well, Brother Sang, are you sure they're coming?"

"Not sure!" The young man's straightforwardness and frankness made Shen Yugong's eyes roll, and the anxiety in his heart increased a little.

"Ahh Then you? ”

"However, if the people of the West Island want to deal with the two of us, this should be the best chance!" Sang Nan's tone was flat, but a hint of fierceness slipped in his eyes.

"The insistence of the Issian is crazy, even if they know it's a trap, they will get in."

"The other party has two eighth-level masters?" Shen Yugong looked at the mature young man beside him, and reminded in a solemn tone.

"Isn't there still General Shen?" Sang Nan smiled lightly, his face full of indifference.

"Me? Haha, that's right! Shen Yugong laughed with a hint of surprise, he is a powerful archer, suitable for both distance and close combat, but the battle between the two armies is not a competition of arms, not to mention that the opponent is still a world-famous soldier, it is a lie to say that he is not nervous.

"Did you forget the 'wooden sword'?" Sang Nan tilted his head and looked at Shen Yugong, revealing a look of disdain.

Shen Yugong then remembered that Duanmu Jian was also an eighth-level swordsman, but he was ravaged by the Sang people, his face suddenly turned pale, and he secretly scolded himself for not showing cowardice in front of a child, but he had rich experience and had already practiced thick hair, so he patted his head and smiled:

"Oh, yes! Look at my brain! ”

At this moment, the boat shook violently, stopped, and then a noise came from the ship in front, and the guards behind him ran down the deck to inquire, and not long after, they came back to report:

"My lord! The man in the boat ahead said that there were several large trees floating on the river, blocking the river. They're trying to figure it out! ”

"Big trees?" Sang Nan and Shen Yugong glanced at each other, revealing an unfathomable smile.

"Give a signal to both boats and watch out for movement on the river!" Shen Yugong shouted a command. The soldiers of the West Island are the best at water warfare, and the soldiers are all people with excellent water nature, and it is of course the most suitable to do it in the river.

It didn't take long for more than 100 giant trees to appear upstream, drifting down the river and slowly towards the three ships. These giant trees are all large trees that grow in the nearby mountains, and they have been cut down by the waist, and the branches at the end have been removed, like a small boat.

Sang Nan and Shen Yugong lay on the battlement, carefully observing the surface of the river, only to see more than 100 "boats" floating on the water, and there were hidden figures in the water below.

"Attention, there's someone underwater! Archers get ready to attack! Shen Yugong was profound, standing on the ship and shouting, the soldiers of the three ships could hear his voice.

Sang Nan was shocked to the point that his eardrums rattled, and secretly said that this veteran general in the army was really extraordinary.

Shen Yugong's expression was serious at this time, and he took a bronze golden wire bow and golden feather arrow from the hand of his guard. He has been in the army for many years and has experienced countless battles, and once he enters the combat state, he immediately becomes decisive in killing.

When Sang Nan saw his quiver, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. The other archers used standard quivers, each of which could hold twenty feathered arrows. Even Qiu Ye, for each action, is equipped with up to four quivers. Compared to the ordinary standard quiver, Shen Yugong's quiver was a bit exaggerated, and there were at least thousands of feather arrows in it.

How does this run out?

Sang Nan didn't think there were too many arrows, he was worried about whether Shen Yugong had the strength to shoot so many arrows. But then he saw the murderous Silver Feather Guard around the sanitation, and he suddenly realized.

"Swing your head to the left and lean in!" Shen Yugong commanded, and the boat began to move left and forward, and when the tail boat saw this, it also swung forward to the left, and the two boats gradually moved closer to the first ship.

At this time, several "small boats" had already approached the first ship, and more than a dozen soldiers were riding on sampans, moving those big trees across the water, they heard Shen Yugong's reminder, and knew that there were people under the water, but if they didn't move these big trees, the three boats would be trapped here, unable to move, and become a live target for the opponent.

So, they didn't pay attention to the movement under the water, and pushed the big trees to the sides. The comrades on the ship behind him were armed with bows and crossbows, vigilantly watching the movement on the water.

Several "small boats" arrived near the sampan and slammed into the sampan, the sampan shook violently, and the Beiyan soldiers above tried their best to stabilize the sampan, and then stabbed the figure below the "small boat" with the long sword in their hands.

The figures were very watery, and they dodged nimbly like fish and water ghosts, and then a few knocks came from underwater, and the bottom of the sampan was chiseled through by them with sharp weapons.

The sampan overturned, some of the soldiers fell into the water, and a few others climbed into the trees.

The figures under the water swarmed upward, the soldiers who fell into the water died quickly, the blood-red waves in the river, the bows and crossbows on the ship suddenly let out a sad tremble, and shot arrows at the place of the blood flowers, but after a strong shot, there was no movement on the surface of the water, only the branches of the big trees and the floating corpses of comrades, as well as the "giant wooden boat" that was still moving forward.

Several soldiers on the top of the big tree, holding sharp swords, looked at the water vigilantly, but suddenly there was a soft strange sound in their ears:

Whoosh!

Several soldiers felt a tingling pain in their throats, and they couldn't breathe for a moment, and they struggled to touch and pull out with their hands—

But it was a delicate little arrow, shining with a blood-stained cold glow under the dazzling sun. (To be continued.) )
