Chapter 57: Attack on the Ancient Tea Horse Road
Walking on the ancient tea horse road, sometimes it is a long time of forest covering the sun, sometimes it is a steep plank road, if you can walk on the gentle hillside, it is also a happy day,
Although this scenery is very unique, but after all, he is not here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, Zhu Houzhao's mood is still a little anxious.
"How long will it take to get to Tengchong City, Wind Chimes." Zhu Houzhao said,
"It should be soon, don't worry, let's go like this, it is estimated that there will be another day." Wooden wind chimes said,
"It's going to be one day away, oh my God, if it's a war involving troops, how can this be done." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Yes, the roads here are rugged and not suitable for fighting and transporting troops, so this may be the reason why the enemy took risks against the Ming Dynasty." The swallow in the wind said,
"If that's the case, if the war really starts, it's really troublesome, and you can find a closer way." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Difficult, it's all like this, for thousands of years, people here have come and gone like this, and this ancient road has condensed the joys and sorrows of many people!" Wooden wind chimes said,
"Alas, yes, it looks like this is a threshold we can't avoid." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Lord, it was a very difficult thing in Pingnan in the past dynasties, otherwise Zhuge Liang would not have captured and released Meng Shu seven times, because the terrain here is very dangerous, even if you kill Meng Shu once, but the rest of the rebellion is impossible for you to deal with, so Zhuge Liang's approach is the best." The swallow in the wind said,
"yes." Zhu Houzhao sighed,
And as they walked all the way on, when they came to a dense forest, it seemed as if it were night,
They all rushed to a sense of terror, but the footsteps still did not stop, and suddenly Zhu Houzhao heard a strange bird's call, Zhu Houzhao looked up, he was secretly surprised,
I saw a huge tree erected there, and the tree could be surrounded by at least a dozen people, and on the tree stood a relatively large bird whose name was not clear, and they were screaming strangely.
Zhu Hou looked at them, and also looked at the covered sky,
Zhu Houzhao thought, when he encountered such a strange bird, what did it portend?
When Zhu Houzhao was in a daze there, a big bird flew over, and when Zhu Houzhao was still not paying attention, the bird suddenly flew towards him.
When it was too late, I saw that Mu Lan raised and landed with a dart, and the dart hit the big bird.
The big bird was in pain, but it didn't fall, it just screamed and flew away.
"Whether it's intentional or not." Zhu Houzhao remembered that the whereabouts of this bird were very strange,
"Maybe it's commanded!" Moulin said,
Because she looked at this big bird really weird, it didn't look like she was attacking people inexplicably,
"Yes." Zhu Houzhao said,
"yes, I've heard about remote-controlled birds before." The swallow in the wind said,
"It's a strange kung fu." Zhu Houzhao said,
At this time, the birds were still there, and everyone looked at them nervously and alertly.
When everyone thinks it's okay, "Let's go." "Mullan, after saying that, she kept guarding the big bird,
While everyone was moving forward, Moulin stayed at the back,
Just when everyone thought that the birds would not move anymore, suddenly the birds flew towards the people.
"Protect the lord." Mullan shouted, her darts flying at the birds,
At this time, the swallow in the wind was also standing calmly next to Zhu Houzhao, when a bird flew close, the swallow in the wind, a steel needle was sent over,
It is estimated that the steel needle went deep into the bird, it was like an electric shock, and then fell straight to the ground.
And then the other one struck, and it still ended up like this,
At this time, a flock of birds in the air fluttered, as if they had received an order to attack, they seemed to be turning around without a purpose, in fact, they were all looking for the target of the attack.
Who are they targeting, Feng Zhongyan has been watching, she found that these birds often dangle in many people, and then pounce directly on Zhu Houzhao, it turns out that the lord is their target,
At this time, those birds seemed to have suddenly changed their tactics, and all of those big birds seemed to have received some instructions at once, and suddenly, they all rushed towards Zhu Houzhao.
"Everyone protect the lord, these birds are coming for the lord." The swallow in the wind shouted, and at this time all the guards also came, and everyone kept casting hidden weapons at these birds.
Everyone kept shooting at the birds, and then the birds kept planting on the ground.
But suddenly, a very vicious bird, it seemed to have escaped everyone's hidden weapon, flew straight to Zhu Houzhao, and soon reached his head, its big wings fanned over at once, Zhu Houzhao was startled, and his ancient dragon sword stabbed straight away,
The bird seemed to know martial arts, it dodged sideways, and then the other wing flapped again,
At this time, Mu Lan and Feng Zhongyan still had to deal with the big birds that kept flying in the air, and they didn't come empty-handed to help Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao fought a few tricks with these birds, the bird seemed to be very orderly at first, suddenly, the bird seemed to be strongly stimulated, it suddenly made a strong effort, and suddenly knocked down the ancient dragon sword in Zhu Houzhao's hand, when Zhu Houzhao didn't react, the bird used a very fast speed, with that big pointed beak, pecked at Zhu Houzhao,
Zhu Hou looked at the bird when it was about to approach his head, he quickly took something out of his boot without hesitation and blasted it at the strange bird.
"Smack." A crisp voice remembers,
It was the sound of a musket, and it alarmed everyone, and when everyone looked, the strange bird had fallen to the ground with a heavy shot.
After the strange bird fell to the ground, all the strange birds stopped, they first circled in the air, and then chirped, and the sound was a little sad,
The ground was full of the corpses of strange birds, and I wondered if the strange birds in the air were wailing for their kind or something.
Suddenly the birds regrouped, and they formed a circle around Zhu Houzhao's head, and there they neighed,
"What are they going to do, are they going to attack us?" Mullan said, and then she grabbed the dart in her hand, but she found that her dart was running out.
"I don't have many darts, yours." Moulin said,
"Mine isn't much." The swallow in the wind said,
"We've fired a lot of darts, but there aren't a few." The guards said,
Zhu Hou looked at the birds in the air, there were probably more than two dozen of them,
"You gather first, form a circle, each hold a position, they shoot when they get close, if they fly over our human circle, I should be able to deal with it." Zhu Houzhao said,
"Alright then, let's do it." Moulin said,
At this moment, all the strange birds rushed down at once, and they hissed loudly in the air, flapped their wings, and rushed towards them like arrows.
All the hidden weapons were sent out, and most of them were still hit by the hidden weapons and fell to the ground.
However, some big birds were still able to knock out a lot of hidden weapons, and they continued to rush over, and at this time, about five or six big birds rushed through the attack and came towards Zhu Houzhao.
