Chapter 63: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain (Part II)
Seeing the young man on the opposite side coming with a gun on his horse, Cheng Wu did not hesitate and also rode up to meet him. He was confident in his martial arts, but he neglected the strength of the opponent's arrows. can kill two people with one stone, can the other party's martial arts be poor?
Zhao Xun has been polished by his father since he was a child, and his strength is already proud of everyone, and he has practiced martial arts with Li Chenfeng for four years, with extraordinary strength and good martial arts, there are few opponents, but when he trained soldiers a few months ago, he saw the spear master sent by Wutong to assist, and competed with him, and he had an advantage in strength, but the opponent had an advantage in moves. This made Zhao Xun remember this young man with extraordinary martial arts, and in the following months, Zhao Xun exchanged martial arts skills with this young man named Luo Qi, which greatly increased his marksmanship. This made Zhao Xun want to ask several times if there was a man named Luo Cheng on his ancestor.
"Kill!" The three enemy soldiers waved their knives to stop Zhao Xun.
"I can't help myself!" The spear brought up a cold light with lightning speed, slashing through the throats of the three people, and after Zhao Xun left, the eyes of the three of them were round, and the blood in their throats gushed out like a fountain.
"Magnetic!" Cheng Wu and Zhao Xun's spears staggered.
"That's a lot of force!" As soon as Chengwu's spear intersected with the opponent's spear, he felt a huge shock in his arms, a burst of numbness, and the spear in his hand was also bounced high.
"Uh......" Cheng Wu, who just felt a little bad, suddenly felt a chill in his chest, and then his whole body lost his strength and fell off the horse.
As soon as Cheng Wu died, the morale of the rest of the soldiers plummeted, and many people hid everywhere, but under the encirclement and suppression of hundreds of people, where was there a place to hide.
Not long after Zhao Xun entered Shanglin Village, Chengwen also caught up with the person he was looking for, but the result was not as he thought. I saw a dozen carriages lined up in front of me on a slightly raised high ground, more than 150 people, holding longbows, waiting silently, not riding.
Cheng Wen suddenly felt bad, where is this an ordinary guard, this is simply the government army, and it is equipped with a standard longbow. Is this a trap? Designing ours?
"Chief, see that their front is well arranged, and it is not suitable for charging, let's flank from both sides." One person built yƬ road.
"No, I look at the left and right, and it is estimated that there are horse traps on the left and right sides, these people are obviously waiting for us here, chief, this is likely to be a trap." Another said.
"But we can't just go back like this, can we? Besides, the terrain around here is flat, so it's clear at a glance, what can be the trap? Maybe they found out we were here and deliberately renovated the dirt in the neighborhood to deceive us? We rode our horses and galloped, and it was not surprising that the sentinels on the other side knew that we were following us, after all, they were also horses in their own hands. At first, the man retorted.
Chengwen looked at the formation a few hundred meters in front of him, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he didn't know where the uneasiness was, he believed that the more than 100 people on the other side were definitely not his opponents, but he always felt a little worried in his heart, but he couldn't remember what it was.
"Chief! How do you say? Kill or withdraw? ā
"Withdraw? Xingshi ran out of the crowd and ran back in disgrace, you lost this person, I can't afford to lose it! Tie Mazi and Qian Liu, each of you will bring a hundred people to attack from both sides! Remember, watch out for their bows and arrows. ā
Tie Mazi and Qian Liu attacked from both sides with more than a hundred knights, while Chengwen approached from the front with the remaining whites.
Although the number of people is half of the other party, Zhao Xun is not nervous, on average, every two veterans are paired with a new soldier, divided into three divisions to defend one side, and the finished glyphs are listed on the high ground. Directly in front of it were barriers made of wagon tie-ups, and on either side were traps that had been dug in advance. On the high ground, the longbowmen were already waiting for their arrows.
"Kill!" Tie Mazi led his subordinates to rush wildly, attacking the enemy from the flank.
300 meters......
200 meters......
One hundred and fifty meters......
It's getting closer! Tie Mazi was overjoyed in his heart, sure enough, this place is fake, there is no trap at all, it must be ...... Before I could think of anything else, I felt my body tilt and my eyes spin.
"Plop ......" Tie Mazi was dizzy and turned over several times on the ground one after another. Shaking his dizzy head, he was about to stand up, but a black light sank into his neck, leaving him completely motionless. "If you had known, you wouldn't have been at the front!" The last thing that remains in my mind is regret that I shouldn't have run too fast.
As Tetsuko fell, a dozen or so knights who had galloped with him rolled to the ground, the wails of men and the neighing of horses. The knights who followed closely behind could not restrain the galloping fast horses, and they collided one after another.
The captain who was defending on the left side saw the enemy fall off his horse, and with a very spicy smile on his face, he waved his big hand and shouted: "Arrows!" ā
Fifty archers is not many, but it is still the end of the world to deal with an enemy who has lost speed and rolls down.
It may not be appropriate to rain arrows, but without speed and taking care of the knights under their feet, it is completely a disaster, they have no armor and no shield.
"Shoot the arrows! Keep firing the arrows! Shoot them! The captain shouted loudly, and the longbow in his hand kept shooting long arrows.
In Tie Mazi's encounter, Qian Liu also tasted it, but Qian Liu was sleek and felt that something was wrong, so he fell behind and loudly commanded his subordinates to rush forward. As he expected, dozens of brothers in front of him were attacked by a rain of arrows and died on the spot, stabbed like hedgehogs.
"Retreat! Withdraw it now! Qian Liu was not reckless, seeing this scene, he immediately asked the brothers to retreat, and finally counted more than 30 people dead and more than 40 injured, only the back ones were fine.
After Chengwen asked the two of them to lead the team to attack from the left and right sides, he immediately approached the car formation, who knew that as soon as he approached more than 100 meters, there was a rain of arrows, and he couldn't jump over the car formation, so he went around in a circle, and finally went around, and Chengwen gritted his teeth angrily.
"Chief! Oh no, Captain Iron is dead! There were few brothers left with him. The money team rate has also encountered obstacles, and more than half of them have been damaged. A soldier ran over with a bloodied face and said.
"What do you say? Two idiots! After hearing this, Chengwen almost fell off the horse, looked left and right, sure enough, a few hundred meters away, the two battlefields seemed to be their own losses, and his face suddenly looked ugly, looking at the other party more than three hundred meters away in front of him, Chengwen's face was full of green muscles, gritted his teeth, and finally said helplessly: "Withdraw!" ā
With a whistle, the knights who had been rushing to kill in a hurry disappeared in an instant, as if they had never been there, if it weren't for the blood, stumps, dead bodies and scattered weapons on the ground, it would be hard to believe that there had been a great battle here.
Seeing the enemy retreating, Zhao Jie also secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, if they are attacking for a while, we will be in trouble, maybe we will have to run away on horseback, the horses on our side are in the best condition, and the other party's horses are galloping for more than ten miles, so if we escape, Zhao Jie is confident that he can still escape.
Now all of them have soreness in their arms, and some even have their fingers bleeding from the bowstring. As soon as the enemy retreated, they all threw their arms in place and relaxed themselves.
"Rest in place, but don't relax in case of accidents." Zhao Jie breathed a sigh of relief and ordered after receiving from the sentry that the enemy had indeed retreated.
There were 300 people when they came out, and 200 people when they returned, and dozens of them were wounded. Chengwen's face was as black as ink, and the knights around him were silent, and no one knew if the leader would find you to spread fire when he was angry.
"It's not good, chief, it seems that there are shouts of killing from the village, it's not good, it must be with those people before, deliberately luring us out so that they can attack our village." One said, pointing to a village in the distance.
Chengwen, who was looking down and sulking, looked up and could faintly hear the sound of shouting and killing and the smoke coming out of some places.
"Oops! There are more than 10,000 deniers of food there, don't lose it! Thinking of this, Chengwen's face turned pale, he knew that once these grains were taken or burned, he would definitely not end well, but he understood Qi Yan's methods.
"Quick...... Fast...... Kill back! Chengwen couldn't calm down anymore, he regretted dying at the moment, he should have known that he shouldn't have listened to the blind agitation of the people below, it's too late to say anything now, or retaking the village is the most important thing, otherwise, it will be the real end.
Frightened and frightened, Chengwen led the people straight to the center of the village, because there were intermittent shouts of killing. However, he did not find many irrationalities, the entire road in Shanglin Village was diagonal in the shape of a tic-tac-toe, and they ran wildly on one of the roads, although they saw blood all over the ground, but they did not see the corpses. The forks that connect to the other roads are blocked, and there is only one main road that leads to the middle.
"This ...... What's going on? Chengwen said to himself with a chill. What appeared in front of him was not the two sides fighting, but the soldiers he didn't know were shouting where they were arrayed.
"Kill! Kill! Kill! There were also neat footsteps and shouts of killing from behind.
"Boom!" Chengwen looked at the three hundred people in front of him and flashed to both sides with neat steps. Make way for a very young man wearing a red unicorn cloak out of it.
"Where's my brother?" Chengwen asked with helplessness and bitterness.
"Dead!" Zhao Xun replied coldly.
"Who are you?"
"Fire Lin Army! Zhao Xun! ā
"I see! I see! Brethren! Give it a go! Kill! ā
Zhao Xun waved his hand and shouted: "The first two are listed with guns, and the last three columns are released!" ā
"Kill!" Chengwen killed Zhao Xun with despair and grief and indignation, but Zhao Xun didn't care, and still commanded the soldier to move forward as a whole.
"Thorn!" "Poof!" The so-called one inch is long and one inch strong, and when the long knife of Chengwen's subordinates has not touched the other party, he finds that he is surrounded by cold spear tips. Step by step, the soldiers in front and behind oppressed this text and the range of activities of its subordinates.
A moment later, Chengwen and his entourage, who were attacked from both sides, were wiped out, Chengwen also died in the hands of Zhao Kang, and the third stronghold was finally taken by Zhao Xun, one step closer to his goal.
