Chapter 70: Night Attack
This plunder actually provoked such a big reaction from the Xia people in the abandoned land, and the leader of the Hu people never expected it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 At this moment, a middle-aged Hu man was scolding at the leading knight.
The leading knights had actually done a good job as generals, and if they had withdrawn a little later, the casualties would have definitely risen to a terrible level. For a newly migrated nomadic people, the high number of casualties is absolutely devastating.
But he had to scold that someone had to take the blame for this defeat, and only in this way could the clansmen feel that this defeat was someone's fault, not a lack of strength.
", tomorrow I want you to give you a qualified revenge plan. The tribe had to grab all the items they needed within a month. After the middle-aged Hu Ren finished scolding, he waved his hand to let the other party retreat.
At midnight there was a humming sound in the tent of the Hu people, and the cattle and sheep fell asleep quietly in the pen. The three hot air balloons took advantage of the wind direction to slowly approach, flew away from the low mountain of the camp tent for about ten miles, gradually reduced the flames, and threw a thick rope on each hot air balloon about ten meters above the ground. After that, three people fell from each hot air balloon and disappeared at the foot of the low mountain.
After completing the troop projection, the flames on the hot air balloon increased, and it rose high into the air again.
"Check your gear!" In the night sky, Luo Chuan suppressed his voice very low.
The nine people below are all dressed in ribbed clothes, and the buckles on the costumes are full of various equipment. The individual three-string crossbow can fire three crossbow arrows in a row, and can also be fired in a single shot, with an effective range of about fifty paces. The arrows are twenty centimeters long, and the arrows are made of bronze, with barbed blood grooves on the tips of the arrows. The middle arrow is not missing a large piece of meat, don't try to take the arrow off.
This weapon was completed by the Yunyu Weapon Group, under the leadership of the class, and the theory came from Luo Chuan's idea of a repeating crossbow, but this type of repeater was still a little worse than Luo Chuan's idea of a rainstorm pear flower needle. There are not many productions, just ten of them, and the advanced model class of this crossbow is still tackling key problems day and night.
In addition to crossbow arrows, the warriors also hung short daggers and poison wood pots around their waists. The dagger was so sharp that it glowed faintly even under the dark night sky. The poisonous wood pot is the focus, and Xi has been pounding this thing for the whole first half of the night, according to Xi, half a pot of poisonous weed can poison hundreds of people.
"Well, I have only one request for today's attack." Luo Chuan's voice was very low, and the other seven fighters and one red hair all quietly came over.
"Remember, leave no mouth alive. Think of the brother who is still lying in the hospital bed and does not know whether he is alive or dead. Think of the one hundred and thirty-one mouths of the Qing clan. If you still have a shred of mercy, in the end we will not be able to go back. Do you understand? "These people are elite warriors selected from the scouts and bow guards, Luo Chuan does not doubt the combat effectiveness of the group, the only worry is that he is afraid that these simple guys have good intentions, which will lead to the failure of this attack.
"Understood!" The warriors' eyes were determined, and they lowered their voices and let out a muffled roar.
"The team is keeping up, and the target is due south." After saying that, a group of people walked forward like ghosts in the night sky, without making a sound.
"Taizu, there are eleven tents in front, and there are people inside. Two sheep pens and one cattle pen. There were two knights on the periphery, but neither of them was on horseback. "After the wind and dust reconnaissance, return to the small pit where the team is lurking.
The other party is not a fool, and even left a guard post. In this way, the difficulty of the raid has increased a lot, but if you retreat when you encounter this difficulty, then this time Luo Chuan's ambitious special raid will become a joke.
"Fish scales, fish nails." The two of you lurk over and kill them with your bolts, remembering not to make him sound on the alert. These two were two brothers, and they were the best archers in the Bow Guard. Replaced with crossbow arrows, with Professor Luo Chuan's three-point-one-line shooting technique, it is even more powerful.
The two brothers directly took off their crossbows, and the cat's waist moved forward, reaching a distance of a hundred paces from each other. crawling on the ground like a snake, the whole process is also silent.
There were a few people left, and Luo Chuan led the team to crawl to a position with better vision.
The two knights sat around the fire, chatting about the events of the day, and they were babbling so much that they could not be understood. Looking at that talk, his expression is still a little palpitating about the battle of the day. One of them seemed to disagree with the other's point of view, and expressed his dissatisfaction. At this time, the horse behind him made some strange moves, and the knight got up to calm down. "Whoosh" There was a sound of breaking the air in my ears. Then there was the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. As soon as he turned around, he saw a black dot flying in front of him, and then a sharp pain came from his throat, and he fell to the ground with a grunt.
Luo Chuan, who had already been prepared, ran over quickly, pulling the war horse to prevent the other party from neighing. The rest of the warriors behind him leaped over, drew their daggers, and felt into the tent. The soldiers moved quickly, and it only took a dozen or so breaths to come out of one tent, and immediately turned into hungry wolves and pounced on another after getting out of the tent.
The two brothers, obviously unable to catch up, took out the wooden jar on their waists and sprinkled poisonous powder on the grass in the wooden pen. There was a strong smell of blood in the night sky, and these Hu people, who were careless about people's lives, didn't know that they had successfully released the demons in the hearts of the people of the Deserted Summer.
Luo Chuan's worries are completely redundant, the soldiers have done a very good job, there are more than 40 people here, regardless of the old and young, and the hundreds of cattle and sheep here will all die by tomorrow morning.
After integrating the team, let everyone sprinkle the grass juice prepared by Xi on their bodies to cover up the smell of blood. Ran to the next attack point again.
The targets of the attack were all on the periphery, and Luo Chuan didn't want to attack the opposite royal court. It is not difficult to get in, and it is dangerous to retreat due to the conditions. For the sake of the leader of a small Hu tribe, it is really not cost-effective to trap yourself in it.
Unable to attack the opponent's royal court, Luo Chuan was ready to take the opponent's military camp to open the knife. Most of the men of the Hu people were organized, and there was a cavalry camp of 100 people in each of the three directions of east, west and north. Most of the rest of the cavalry were on the side of the royal court, and Luo Chuan, who had been continuously reconnoitring in recent days, had already figured out the other party's arrangement.
The eastern military camp is just connecting the exit between Huangxia and the outside world, Luo Chuan doesn't know if there are any Hu people outside Huangxia, and this place must be sealed first and then closed to beat the dogs.
The defense of the barracks at night is much better, not only are there cavalry on the periphery, but there are also a large number of torches around the barracks, and the surrounding area is illuminated by more than ten zhang.
After observing Luo Chuan, he knew that this place was just terrifying, except for those few wandering cavalry, the military camp had almost no other defensive forces. Hundreds of old men snored and slept worse than pigs.
The tent was on the left, and most of the torches were extinguished, and the rangers were still paraded as usual. A few people touched the left position, where the light of the fire was weak, and it was easy to hide.
"Ready! Put! As soon as a few Rangers entered the shadows, nine men instantly rose from the grass, three volleys of crossbow arrows in their hands. More than twenty crossbow arrows shot out several rangers and suddenly fell to the ground, and the horses neighed.
The barracks always reacted faster than ordinary herdsmen, and the sound of war horses sounded, and there was a sudden noise in the barracks. Luo Chuan didn't expect this raid to be completed quietly like the previous one.
"You go and guard the stable, and don't let anyone approach the horses." The rest of the people on! ”
Luo Chuan kicked down the fence, and the short dagger in his hand slashed through the tent, and the whole mermaid entered more and more. More than a dozen Hu people in the tent got up in a panic, and before they could touch the weapon, they saw a black shadow rushing towards them. The black shadow is very fast, and its strength is even greater, and the knife is disemboweled.
The last Hu man was broken by Luo Chuan's punch, and the dagger in his hand had long been stuck in the bones of the unlucky corpse.
When I got out of the tent, I saw that many Hu people in the barracks were running around. About twenty steps away from Luo Chuan, one of the middle-aged Hu people looked like the captain, and was screaming to gather the crowd. This middle-aged Hu man, just after shouting twice, suddenly felt that he was staring at it as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, and his years of experience in fighting made him not look for the direction of the poisonous snake, and his head was directly deviated, and the Hu warrior behind him was bad, and the crossbow arrow was in the center of his eyebrows.
This kind of repeating crossbow is too slow to load the arrows, and Luo Chuan only has to load one in a hurry. But it doesn't matter, "You're still hiding." With a scolding voice, he picked up a large piece of dirt from the soles of his feet, turned his body into sharp arrows, and knocked several Hu people away. grabbed with one hand and pinched the cheeks of the middle-aged Hu man.
Then in front of everyone's eyes, he lifted it and smashed it.
"Hell yes!" The more than 20 people who finally gathered suddenly exploded. Luo Chuan didn't understand what he was calling, anyway, he didn't praise himself.
The middle-aged Hu man who had turned into a puddle in his hand was thrown aside and pounced on the crowd again.
Yunchen took the Hu people with two warriors who had already finished solving a tent, and saw that the one in the crowd who showed his might was not Taizu. grabbed a black knife from the Hu man and pounced directly.
The Hu man on the other side of the stable was also desperate, the blue-faced man with a red beard in front of him, I don't know where he got a one-man high machete, he played a good game, and when he saw that anyone was going to ride a horse, he would even take a man and a horse in half.
"Looking at this person's appearance, doesn't he look like a Xia person? Could it be that the Hu people are somewhere? It's all family. "These guys are also mixed up, they can't beat and can't fight, they can't run and they can't run, as long as it's not that there is something to discuss between the Xia people and the Hu people, they fell to their knees more than a dozen at once.
Of course, Yuguo didn't know what the other party was thinking, anyway, Taizu ordered that no one should ride a horse, you have to kneel, and when Taizu comes, I will talk about how to clean you up.
The raid was a success, and then the hot air balloon flew through the sky, waving its flag heavily towards the jungle in the distance. In the jungle, Lu Qing and Eagle Zhan were followed by hundreds of deer cavalry and a thousand black-armored warriors, and when they saw the banner, they immediately rushed towards the exit of the barren summer to connect with the outside world.
