There were too many enemies, at least more than two hundred, twice as many as the soldiers escorting the convoy.

The shouts of the sentry posts awakened the soldiers in the camp, who lit torches and bonfires beside them, swordsmen and axemen erected shields on the perimeter, and archers drew their bows and arrows and surrounded the wagons in the middle, forming a defensive formation in the shortest possible time.

The speed of the horse thief's charge was so rapid that in the darkness of the night, like a rolling torrent, he was less than a hundred meters away from the carriage, and several sentries in charge of the guard were cut to the ground before they could dodge.

"Archer prepare!"

The commander gave the order, and all the bows and arrows in the hands of all the archers were aimed forward.

"Shoot!"

Dozens of long arrows flew out almost simultaneously, and several horse thieves who rushed in front fell to the ground with arrows.

Without waiting for the order of the school officer, the archers launched a second volley.

After two volleys, the horse thieves approached more than fifty meters, and the archers quickly threw away their short bows, picked up four-meter-long war spears from the ground, and in pairs, they pushed out diagonally through the gap in the shield array in front of them.

The frontier people are brave and good at fighting, and the soldiers on the frontier are even more accustomed to the scene of bloodshed and death.

In the face of an enemy who was nearly four times their number, the soldiers were not afraid, and calmly made the most correct contingency measures, and at the moment when the horse thief team was about to approach the shield wall, several shield-wielding veterans flashed light on their bodies, and almost simultaneously released the aura in their bodies.

The wailing of the war horse, the scream of the horse thief, and the roar of the soldier instantly resounded throughout the mountain pass, and the men and horses who rushed in front were blocked by the strong shield spear, and the people behind did not have time to restrain the war horse and collided directly, and a charge of the enemy was completely disrupted in a few breaths.

Losing the speed advantage, the horse thief quickly got into a scuffle with the soldiers, and for a while, shouts of killing rang out.

Ye Haotian squatted in the dirt pit, his face sank like water, with the help of the power bonus brought by the golden wire armor, the iron bow that ordinary people could not pull at all was pulled into a full moon in his hand again and again, and with the humming sound of the bowstring loosening, one sharp arrow after another pierced the night sky with a rapid scream and pierced into the body of a famous horse thief.

The horse thieves are attacking rapidly, but the soldiers escorting the convoy today are all the elite of Quicksand City, although the number is at a disadvantage, but the team's combat effectiveness is much higher than that of the opponent, especially the close-range battle, which is not at all comparable to the horse thieves who are good at winning with speed.

Seeing that the shield wall formed by the soldiers blocked the enemy's attacks again and again, Ye Haotian breathed a sigh of relief, after such a long time, the numerical advantage of the horse thieves would definitely be consumed little by little, unless they could open the distance as soon as possible and organize a second charge.

Ye Haotian hid in the dark and kept releasing cold arrows, he wanted to try to narrow the gap in numbers in the shortest possible time and create opportunities for the soldiers to counterattack. But at this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded on the battlefield, and a horse thief with a strong body and a wolf's head mask on his face raised an iron rod in his hand and smashed it on the shield in the hand of an infantry soldier in front of him, and the soldier was smashed out along with the shield.

"The pinnacle of the Qi Transformation Realm!"

Seeing the aura light blooming on the iron rod, Ye Haotian's pupils suddenly contracted, and he quickly took out a long arrow from the quiver and put it on the iron bow.

Among the horse thieves, there were very few cultivators, especially the Li Cultivation warriors, who rarely participated in this kind of raid battle due to the heavy weight of their bodies and weapons in their hands. And once it appears, it must be the core figure of the other party.

In the melee, the figures were staggered, the arrow in Ye Haotian's hand couldn't be aimed for a long time, and seeing that several more soldiers were smashed into the air, he could only move his body quickly, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.

Finally, a war horse was stabbed by the spear in the soldier's hand and fell, and the people around him dodged one after another, and the figure of the thief with a stick and horse was completely exposed to Ye Haotian's sight.

Sou!

Ye Haotian's hand tightening the bowstring was instantly released, and the sharp arrow flew out with a sharp breaking sound, deeply piercing the thigh of the horse thief with a stick.

The stick horse thief stiffened, he lowered his head and pulled out the arrow, glanced at it and threw it on the ground, then turned around, glanced around, and quickly fell on the direction where Ye Haotian was hiding, and then strode over.

Ye Haotian quickly pulled out an arrow again, skillfully put it on the string, and was about to draw the bow to aim, but he heard a beast-like roar suddenly from the hillside in front of him, and a tall black shadow with a height of three meters was slowly standing up, and with his arms, he lifted a one-person high boulder in his arms above his head.

"Mountain Giant!"

Ye Haotian's face changed greatly, and it was only at this time that he realized that this was the real killer feature of the other party!

The attacking horse thieves heard the roar and shouted and dodged, and the soldiers next to the carriage also changed their faces when they saw this scene, and they could no longer care about protecting the carriage, and retreated to the side.

The Mountain Giants, also known as the Abyss Mountain Giants, together with the barbarian berserkers and the demon clan's armored bears, are collectively known as the three major mobile war machines.

In terms of combat effectiveness alone, an adult mountain giant is on par with a human cultivator of the Four Realms, but on the battlefield, the destructive power caused by a barbarian wrestler is far greater than that of an ordinary cultivator, the reason is very simple, it takes a long time for the cultivator's body to recover after the spiritual energy in his body is exhausted, while the physical strength of the mountain giant can be replenished in a very short time.

The boulder flew out of the mountain giant's hands and smashed into the first carriage with great precision.

The carriage made of hard elm was as fragile as papier-mâché under the impact of the boulder, and was smashed into a pile of debris in an instant.

Ye Haotian broke out in a cold sweat.

If he hadn't left the car a long time ago, he would have turned into a puddle of flesh by now.

Seeing the appearance of the mountain giant, known as the war machine, Ye Haotian suddenly retreated in his heart, he put away his bow and arrows, and quickly walked away from the battlefield under the cover of the night, as for the soldiers next to the carriage, he believed that they didn't have to say anything, they also knew what to do.

It's just that what Ye Haotian didn't expect was that as soon as he ran not far away, there was a shout from behind him that the horse thief ordered him to retreat, and the mountain giant on the hillside also turned around and left into the distance.

Ye Haotian stopped, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and saw in the night that the horse thief with a stick who was chasing him was also limping towards a war horse not far away.

"Want to run? ”

Thinking of the few soldiers who were severely injured by the other party just now, Ye Haotian picked up the iron bow in his hand again and shot an arrow.

The arrow hit the thief in the back of the heart, and he stiffened and slowly fell to the ground.

......

......

The horse thief's sudden retreat made Ye Haotian feel strange, and he was secretly happy.

At the same time, it confirmed his conjecture.

That is, the other party's purpose in this night attack is only one - to get rid of himself! Otherwise, he will not choose to evacuate immediately after the first blow.

Looking at the soldiers of Quicksand City who were busy cleaning up the mess, a chill flashed on Ye Haotian's face.

From the moment he got into the first carriage, he had been very careful, and even after abolishing Ma Gao, he changed the other party's clothes before getting out of the car.

Along the way, he believed that no one would notice that there had been a change of person in the carriage carrying the prisoners.

However, the sneak attacker's target is so precise and decisive, which means that they have already received the news before leaving Quicksand City.

In the past few months, there are not a few people who want to get rid of Ye Haotian, but in such a short period of time, nearly hundreds of horse thieves can be dispatched, and it seems that only the Zhao family in the north of the city has this strength in the entire quicksand city.

It's just that, why is there a mountain giant in the assassination team, that is the core combat member of the demon army, could it be that Zhao Laoxie has taken refuge in the demon clan? Could it be that the demon army has already arrived near Quicksand City? They have discovered their whereabouts? Thinking of this, a chill appeared behind Ye Haotian.

At this moment, the school officer Wang Wu stumbled over, and in the battle just now, he was stabbed in the chest, and the wound was still bleeding.

"Ye Gongzi, there is a living one. ”
