Chapter 114: The Battle of the Royal City (8)
The captain got up and stepped out of the shadow of the boulder, came into the scorching sun, turned his head and looked around, there was a bright patch everywhere, his eyes could not be opened, and he did not even see a ghost shadow for a while. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Still uneasy, he walked slowly around to the other side of the boulder, intending to see what was going on behind the mountain. As soon as I came to the back of the boulder, I suddenly heard a gust of wind "whoosh", a black shadow flashed in my vision, and then I felt a piercing pain in my neck, and my whole body disappeared like a deflated skin, and my legs fell to the ground as soon as I was weak. Before he fell to the ground, a figure quickly pounced on his body and slowly lowered it to the ground without even making a sound.
After killing the sentry, Ding Li beckoned behind him, and twenty of his men emerged from the pile of rubble and came to the back of the boulder. One of them accidentally pressed his hand on the stone surface, and quickly withdrew it as if he had been bitten by a snake, his mouth was wide open but he couldn't help but make a sound, and he cursed in his heart: It's so fucking hot!
"What's next?" Someone asked softly.
"Open your bow and arrows, wait!" Ding Li said in a low voice.
Everyone frowned in pain, how long could they wait to stay next to the hot stone under such a vicious sun, and to draw the bow and arrow? However, there was no better way, so they took off the hard bows behind them and divided them into two groups to aim in one direction.
Fortunately, I didn't have to wait too long.
The two sentries noticed that the captain had not returned since he had gone out, so they went out together to see what was going on. The two squinted and turned behind the boulder, and were shocked to find a large number of bows and arrows in front of them, and they didn't have time to call. They were each shot several arrows by a puff, and this arrow shot was very vicious, picking the throat. The two of them couldn't shout until they died, and they were caught before they fell, and they couldn't pass on any sound.
After a while, the other sentries found that the three people who had gone out had not returned, and felt that something was not quite right, and the twelve people who had not dozed off looked at each other, and they were divided into two groups very tacitly. One group turns left, one group turns right, if an enemy does sneak by. They'll be able to wrap it up.
The two groups of people soon met behind the big stone, but there was nothing, and they couldn't help but stare at each other with big eyes, where did the three people who came out in front go?
"Why don't we knock down the signal flag and tell the people down there is something wrong here!" One of the younger sentinels suggested.
"The situation is unknown. What to tell them? Do you kid want to be scolded by General Ji again? A man who looked old and serious objected.
"So what to do?"
"Let's split into two groups and look around!"
"Don't know what's going on. Or don't separate. ”
"Okay, let's do it together."
The crowd gathered together and searched farther away. When they came to the edge of a dense bush on the mountainside, everyone became nervous and moved forward cautiously.
Suddenly, there was a "whooshing" sound, and a feathered arrow flew out of the bushes like locusts, enveloping all twelve people.
The elbows and armpits are different, and the distance is close. Before the sentinels could react, there was a sound of "puff puff" arrows plunging into the flesh. The seven people walking in front were hit by arrows one after another, and each of them was hit by at least two arrows, and all of them were vital parts, and they fell to the ground after snorting twice. The five people behind were lucky to be blocked and escaped, and quickly turned around and ran, shouting in panic as they ran: "There are enemies, there are enemies!" ”
A group of figures flashed out of the bushes, pointed their bows and arrows at the five people who fled, and another "whoosh" sound sounded, this time several people were not so lucky, and they fell to the ground one after another.
Ding Li quickly stepped forward to count the people who were shot down, and couldn't help but change his face greatly: "It's bad, there are still five people, the voice just now is so loud, I'm afraid they have already knocked down the banner that released the letter." ”
"What should I do?" The others were also nervous, and if they were surrounded by the people in the camp who got the news, the twenty of them would not be enough to stuff people's teeth.
"The flag is still there." One of them was standing just where he could see the apricot yellow flag, and said in surprise.
"Really?" Ding Li came to his place and found that the flag hunting was fluttering, and it was indeed not overthrown, and he wondered: "Could it be that there are only fifteen of them?" ”
"Just look behind the rocks!" Someone suggested.
"Good!" Ding Li nodded: "Leave the two of them to take off the clothes of these sentinels, and the others will be divided into two teams to outflank them." ”
The two teams flew from both sides to the other side of the boulder, only to find that the remaining five people were all dozing off, sleeping so sweetly, and two of them even laughed in a straight stream. Ding Li was overjoyed, and made a gesture to everyone, and five people stepped forward, took out the short knives on their bodies, one person was responsible for one, and looked at each other after getting ready, and at the same time cut their throats.
Ding Li sent one person back to report the news, leaving all twenty people to change into the clothes of the sentry, and the number was just right. After preparing to stop, he led the way to the granary at the bottom of the mountain. Because he was wearing the military uniform of the Eastern Zhou soldiers, he did not encounter any obstacles along the way. When he was approaching the granary, he ran into a group of more than a dozen patrol guards.
"Who?" A captain-like guard asked.
"We are sentinels on the hill, and the changing of the guard has returned." Ding Li had already thought of a statement.
"Isn't the changing of the guard morning and dusk? What kind of post do you want now? ”
"General Ji said that the sun is too poisonous today, so let's come back early."
"Oh!" The other party nodded and said, "Yes, it's really fucking hot today." Hurry back, food and grass are heavy, and you must not stay! ”
"Okay." As he spoke, Ding Li stretched out a hand and gestured behind his back.
The two teams passed by.
Two of Ding Li's team rushed to the granary, while the others suddenly turned around and lunged at the patrol guards.
In a moment, the two sides were fighting together. Ding Li and the others gathered momentum, and there were more personnel, the patrol team was caught off guard and immediately fell into passivity, and even wanted to escape, the battle ended quickly, but the pawn carrying the gong reacted very quickly, and rang the gong in his hand fiercely before being surrounded by the enemy, and with the sound of "dang", the sound of the gong instantly spread throughout the camp.
Soon there was a cacophony of voices in the camp, and the nearest thousand-man team was less than a hundred paces away from the granary, and someone was already rushing towards it.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Ding Li said loudly: "Everyone go quickly, the enemy is coming soon!" ”
"The fire hasn't been lit yet!" The others hesitated.
"I'll pick them up, and you go first. That's an order! Ding Li commanded with a dark face, and it was not until everyone left quickly that he rushed towards the granary.
As soon as I reached the edge of the fence, I saw a few thick beams of smoke coming out of the granary, and the flames began to rise. The two who set the fire retreated, and when they saw Ding Li, they nodded to indicate that they had succeeded.
"Good!" Ding Li was overjoyed: "Let's go." ”
"Who are you?"
Just as the three of them were about to leave, hundreds of people had already gathered around them, staring at them fiercely.
Finished! The hearts of the three of them were cold. (To be continued.) )
