Chapter 12: The Blue-tailed Arrow Falcon

Twenty miles away from the camp there was a small valley called the Purple Star Valley. It is covered with a plant called purple star grass, which blooms in spring and summer every year, and the entire valley becomes an endless sea of purple flowers, with pale yellow pink stamens dancing all over the sky, which is extremely beautiful.

Mei Dongli and fifty members of the Grey Sparrows had been in ambush in the high ground around the valley for a whole day. They were camouflaged with purple star grass and wrapped in thick gauze to prevent the bites of wild bees. Wild bees here are very poisonous, and if a person is stung too much, he will fall into a coma or even die due to blood poisoning.

Disguised as foot merchants, they set out in batches to the Purple Star Valley two days ago, crouching in waist-deep holes dug with their blades, each with two huge clay pots at their feet, and they didn't know what they contained. In the past few days, they have been cautious and rarely even drink water, for fear of attracting the other party's attention.

Looking at the beautiful stamens dotted with stars and floating around, Mei Dongli recalled in his heart what his mother had said to him: At that time, not long after he joined the "Gray Sparrow", Sang Nan decided to ambush the giant thief "Midnight Wolf Heart" Shen Tianya. On the eve of departure, he couldn't let go of his concern for his family, so he secretly told his mother about it. The old lady sat on the bed and touched his head, and said to him earnestly: "Dong'er, my mother can see that the son's family background is good, and his heart is good, although he is still young, he is a person who does great things. If tomorrow's events are in danger, and you have worries in your heart, will he not have them? But he did it anyway! Although my mother has not read any books, she also understands the truth of being a man. Since you have decided to follow him, you must help him wholeheartedly, even if it is your own life, my mother will not blame you! ”

The old lady has passed away, but Mei Dongli has never forgotten her words, "In this life-and-death battle, I must help Gongzi and defeat his enemies!" ”

Suddenly, the sound of "rumbling" horses' hooves interrupted Mei Dongli's thoughts, and he looked through the dense grass in the direction of the valley mouth, only to see a cavalry team of more than 200 people, escorting a luxurious carriage galloping towards this side of the valley!

It was Li Yuanru and his Li Ying.

Behind them were the pursuers who followed, numbering about a thousand people, and more than 100 people in front of them were dressed in red and black armor, with bronze skin, and long knives in their hands, cold and cold, exuding a dangerous aura. The horses of more than 100 people were very soon, and Li Ying was already entangled, and as soon as the two sides fought, there were casualties among each other, and several people were cut off their horses in an instant.

Mei Dongli felt a stir in his heart: It's finally here!

Li Ying finally rushed into the beautiful valley, but they soon found that there was no way out in front of the valley, Li Yuanru did not panic when he saw this, but shouted and issued instructions, and the soldiers of Li Ying listened to his command, jumped off their horses and formed a circle, faintly guarding the carriage in the middle.

The interior of the Purple Star Valley was flat, but there were half-human-tall purple star grasses everywhere, and the people who were chasing after them also dismounted and held swords when they saw this, and rushed over with shouts, their bodies were extremely fast, their knife skills were sharp, and the angles were tricky, like a group of well-trained assassins.

The soldiers of the Li battalion seemed to be very uncomfortable, and people were constantly injured. But they seemed to be scattered, but they advanced and retreated well-founded, always maintaining a three-person team of bows and arrows, spears, and shields, and dozens of squads secretly lined up in a huge circle. Although there were still casualties, the odds had been greatly reduced, and they quickly stabilized their position.

Later, the federal pursuers also arrived one after another, and the commander-in-chief commanded more than 1,000 soldiers to surround the circle array, but several raids were in vain, and dozens of people were killed by the soldiers in the circle at the right time.

Hey? The leader of the other party, Ihlan, was the first to notice the strangeness, the team in front of him, which had just lost its fighting spirit, had now become very resilient, and there was a hidden order between attack and defense, and the panic in the soldier's eyes was replaced by a touch of calmness.

"Is it really Sang Baihua? If so, end the fight as soon as possible! According to the intelligence, the next patriarch of the Sang clan, "Zhihu" Sang Baihua was in that car. He was still a little skeptical in his heart, but when he saw that the combat power of these soldiers was very consistent with the legendary guards, he couldn't help but believe it a little, and thinking of this, he gestured to the person behind him.

Mei Dongli, who was ambushed in the surrounding flowers, saw that his formation had stabilized, and he was just a little relieved, but suddenly heard two clear whistles in the crowd of the other party, and then there were a few sharp eagle chirps in the air in the distance.

What a speed!

The black-armored soldiers and the falcon cooperated tacitly, and while the falcon swooped down to attack, they also roamed around the phalanx with their swords, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

"Ring Three!" Li Yuanru saw that the momentum was not right, shouted loudly, and put on a defensive formation.

Sixty shield bearers worked in pairs, connecting the two shields up and down to form a huge shield like a door panel, forming a circle to protect all the members inside, one by one spears stretched out from the gap between the shields, and the tip of the cold spear pointed directly at the enemy, at the same time, more than 20 longbows pointed obliquely at the sky, focusing on the two arrow falcons that swooped down. The whole formation process went smoothly without the slightest delay.

Mei Dongli vaguely saw that when the two blue-tailed arrow falcons were diving and attacking, their wings were completely tucked at their sides, and their necks were stretched out straight, completely in a straight line with their bodies, and they were galloping down like sharp arrows.

"Pong! Disheveled! The two falcons slammed into the shield wall one after the other, and the shield-bearer behind them only felt a strong attack, and the shield almost fell out of his hand.

What a power!

At this moment, everyone finally saw the legendary blue-tailed arrow falcon.

The whole body is blue, smooth and hairless, with a sharp beak at the tail of an arrow, red claws and blue eyes, and it is unspeakably ugly and hideous!

Under the impact of the shield wall, a gap was revealed, but the arrow falcon was not affected by the collision at all, and reacted very quickly, stretched out its long mouth, and actually pecked a piece of meat. A soldier in the shield wall snorted, blood streaming from his forehead. Seeing this, the companion next to him roared angrily, and stabbed sharply, hitting the body of the arrow falcon, and the arrow falcon let out a piercing scream in pain, and its wings swung up. The powerful stab didn't hurt it in the slightest. But before everyone below could catch their breath, the falcon swooped down again.

Li Yuanru found that the membranous skin of the blue-tailed falcon has excellent protection, not only hard and thick, but also full of elasticity, and it does not leave a hand. His iron fist can kill even a tiger and leopard with one punch, but when he hit the target several times today, he had a feeling that he had nowhere to focus and could not inflict substantial damage on the falcon. And if an ordinary arrow is shot at it, it will also be directly bounced off. The most terrible thing is that pair of sharp claws, glowing with faint blue light, Li Yuanru was shocked in his heart, is it highly poisonous? !

"Their claws are poisonous!" Li Yuanru's eyes were red, and he roared loudly, reminding everyone in Li Ying. He didn't know where the poison on the falcon's claws came from, but it was clear that it would cause a lot of damage to his side.

What a scary creature! Damn, what to do?

However, their tight protective formation also greatly limits the Bluetail's attack efficiency.

Looking at the shield array of the Li camp, Ihran had some doubts in his heart, "There are nearly half of the shield bearers in the opponent's two-hundred-person team, could it be that they have already taken precautions?" From beginning to end, Ihlan didn't make a move, he just stared at the luxurious carriage in the ring that had never moved, as long as these guards were killed, Sang Baihua was ribbed wings, and it was impossible to escape.

"Humph! But it's okay, let me show you now, what is absolute strength! He grinned and sneered, and shouted, "The giant falcon is attacking!" ”

With Ihlan shouting, six tall men burst out of the crowd of birds, with long knives close to two meters in their hands, and the width of an adult's palm. The six people didn't say a word, rushed straight to the front of the phalanx, held the knife in both hands and twisted it hard, and the spear in front of them "clicked" a few times and folded into several pieces, and then the body rotated, the long knife swung obliquely, and slashed heavily on the shield, only to hear a huge muffled sound of "bang", several shields were broken alive, and the shield hand was also shocked to vomit blood and retreat.

The shield array is in jeopardy!
