Chapter 343 Interlocking Designs
(PS: Two chapters today, one more around eleven o'clock.) )
The violent figure made Xie Shence's attack range instantly expand a lot, so that more Erli killers noticed this side.
In a very short period of time, Xie Shence attracted five or six Erli killers, and two of them were suspected of being Grade A killers, which gave Xie Shence a lot of headaches.
It seems that there are still a lot of people who know my identity...... The other party can identify his identity only by virtue of his weapon, and he must be familiar with his own style and characteristics.
This is Xie Shence's biggest disadvantage.
The people of Erli can investigate Xie Shence in a targeted manner, but Xie Shence can't touch the bottom of the people of Erli. The reason is that the whereabouts of the Erli people are too erratic, and the style of each Class A listing person and conductor is different.
Just like the two commanders I met before, the one who died in Daba City was more like an outcast. If it weren't for the intervention of King Li Yan, that time in Taihu Lake, Xie Shence would have been killed.
Now this unknown conductor is a representative of scheming and calculating.
The secrecy of the Erli organization is too good. After Xie Shence's several blows, the personnel of Erli have made great adjustments, and now even Xu Luwei can't give Xie Shence much help.
Therefore, Xie Shence suddenly encountered two killers who were suspected of being Class A listed people, and under their encirclement, he was extremely uncomfortable to deal with.
Xie Shence was forced to gradually break away from the battle circle, and the cavalry had already killed the encirclement and began to retreat in an organized manner, but he couldn't get out for a while.
This situation is undoubtedly beneficial to Tiqi, thanks to Xie Shence's attraction of several extremely powerful killers, which greatly reduced the pressure on Tiqi.
The Erli killer apparently also noticed this, so he bit tightly, apparently to drag the cavalry and wait for reinforcements.
Xie Shence has his own arrangement, and the people of Erli also have measures to deal with it.
Xie Shence withdrew from the circle with difficulty, joined up with several of the corresponding horsemen, retreated while fighting, and continued to move deeper into the small canyon. When retreating, Xie Shence played the role of one-handed and crossbow very carefully, and took advantage of the chaos to solve two more.
It's just that the Erli killer is also vigilant, and after paying the price of two people, he is more careful. After that, although Xie Shence shot six or seven arrows one after another, he did not get anything.
After passing through a relatively empty terrain, Tiqi retreated to the edge of a small forest, and Xie Shence immediately led his men to hide in it.
Just walk through this grove to a small cliff at the end of the canyon, where there is a path that allows you to exit calmly and because of the terrain, you don't have to worry about being ambushed.
The two Erli killers inside were discovered by Ti Cai, who was also good at assassination, and only used two feather arrows, Xie Shence quietly solved the two, and the bodies of the two were still hanging on the tree after they died.
In the dark night, he can only discern the direction by the faint moonlight, and under this kind of sight, Xie Shence was able to shoot the two of them in one fell swoop, Ti Cai's accurate reporting and his own keen intuition are one aspect, and luck is the most important point.
Under the cover of the grove, Xie Shence successfully got rid of the pursuit of the Erli people.
Below the path, which allows only one person to pass head-on, is a cliff of about two feet, and under the cliff is a stream. The stream is very deep at the turn of spring and summer, and it enters the dry period after midsummer, Xie Shence once staged a high-altitude diving here with Wang Kui, Wang Zhong and others, which is very exciting.
After thanking the Shence Palace, he commanded the cavalry to pass quickly, and when there were still a few people left, the Erli killer had already caught up.
In fact, the distance between the two sides was not far, but Tiqi used the branches and stones that were readily available to set up simple roadblocks while retreating, so the Erli people were slightly delayed.
The first one was the killer who recognized Xie Shence's identity, holding a short gun and a gun, and behind him was the person who shot Xie Shence's secret arrow at first, and the two of them came with a murderous look on their faces, and their momentum was extremely strong.
Xie Shence turned around with his sword and said to the three horsemen behind him, "You go first!" ”
Without hesitation, the three of them turned around and protected Xie Shence behind them.
"Let's get in the way!"
Xie Shence frowned, time was pressing, and he couldn't afford to argue and delay, so he had to retreat.
However, just after Xie Shence ran a few steps on the trail, he felt that someone jumped overhead, and there was a gust of wind in his ears, Xie Shence couldn't dodge, and his body immediately left the trail and fell to the bottom of the cliff.
The space on the trail was extremely limited, and there was no way to ambush people to carry out a powerful interception, so only one person was left in Erli. This person is specially prepared for Xie Shence.
The killer of Erli was extremely careful in his planning. The previous large-scale assassination was just to provoke Xie Shence. Since then, although a lot of manpower has been lost, and the relationship with some people in the Wang family has also been exposed, but in Chuzhou City, Xie Shence's large-scale killing did not endanger the core of the Erli people.
On the contrary, because of this incident, Chuzhou City has been extremely chaotic recently, which has just reduced the burden on the people of Erli.
At the same time, it also made Xie Shence completely break with some members of the Wang family.
Being able to cause trouble to Xie Shence is what the people of Erli are most willing to see.
And after using the news of the commander's hideout to lure Xie Shence out, the Erli people even designed such an attack and counterattack.
As long as Xie Shence can be killed, then even if he has another command, it is worth it.
The three riders screamed, and without hesitation, jumped into the reflective water below the cliff.
Because their protector was anxious, it led to the exposure of Xie Shence, and gave the Erli killer who was ambushed on it a hint, so as to throw Xie Shence off the cliff, and they could only be saved by sacrificing their lives.
And the three of them also knew that even if they could save Xie Shence and not die, they would face severe punishment from the Tiqi Division.
Disrespecting orders is what Xie Shence hates the most, and his declaration at the beginning of his tenure is three "obey orders".
The Erli assassin was overjoyed when he saw this, but he didn't expect that a move that he was not optimistic about at the time turned out to be a clever move, and he really let him catch Xie Shence.
There was only room for two or three people on the trail, and there was only one suitable place for an ambush, and I thought that even if I could figure out which one was the leading horseman, if I couldn't get the message here, then the ambush here would be redundant.
I don't want to thank Shence's identity, but it was exposed by their own people.
If it weren't for the fact that those people were Ti Cai, the killers of the Erli people would have thought that they were their undercover agents.
"Stupid ......" The man with the short, gun and the man with the knife looked at each other, and then said, "Keep pursuing!" Two more people, go down and have a look! ”
After saying that, the two also jumped down.
Xie Shence didn't fall on the rocks by the stream, in fact, although he couldn't dodge, he still used his feet hard at the moment he was hugged, kicked the edge of the trail, and the whole person fell to the shallows with the sneak attack Erli killer.
With a "snap", Xie Shence and the Erli assassin landed, and then there were three more sounds of falling into the water, and the three Tiqi also jumped down.
Xie Shence got up, shook it, then held his deformed left little finger, pulled it back to its original place with force, and then pulled out the Han knife inserted in the Erli killer. Pulling out the dagger blocked by soft armor on his back, Xie Shence cut off a hem of his shirt, wrapped it around it, pinned it to his calf, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
When he fell, due to that kick, Xie Shence not only changed the trajectory of his fall with his strength, but also pressed the assassin under him, which caused Xie Shence to fall on the ground on the rare guest.
Although the poor assassin found Xie Shence and successfully pounced on Xie Shence, he failed to stab the poisonous dagger into Xie Shence's infiltration, but instead made a meat pad himself, hit his head on the stone and broke the flower, and Xie Shence was stabbed in the chest.
After falling into the water, the three Tiqi quickly went ashore and looked for Xie Shence in the direction where he landed.
Immediately afterwards, four more people jumped down, but after the four fell into the water, they dived into the water, and they did not hear the sound of water coming out for a while.
The three of them stumbled over, only to see a corpse, groped twice, and one of the horsemen said in a deep voice: "No, keep looking." ”
So the three of them continued to search downstream, and downstream was the exit, and fifty school swordsmen answered two miles away.
Just when the three of them were about to leave, there was a sudden "bang" of water, and three black shadows jumped out of the water, and the knives and guns in their hands stabbed the back of the three horsemen in the blink of an eye.
The two Ti Riders were unprepared and were stabbed to death on the spot, and the remaining Ti Cavalry had time to react because he was the first to get up and was far away, and one lunged forward and disappeared into the shadow of the cliff.
The last man stepped out of the water and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about running away." Eighty-five's body is here, and he's failed. But if the dagger is not found, Xie Shence must have been poisoned, and if you can't go far, search carefully! Watch out for the Dark Arrows! ”
So the four of them quickly searched in the narrow space.
Since there is this link in the plan, the terrain of this section has been completely figured out by the Erli killers, and it is clear where people can be hidden and where they are suitable for ambushes.
So the man with the short, gun-wielding man easily pulled out the horse who had escaped by chance.
The short, flesh-piercing sound of the gun was so uncomfortable that the rider tried to exchange his wounds for them, but the man with the gun didn't let him get his wish.
With one hand, he pinched Tiqi's wrist, twisted it hard, and then removed his wrist, and the straight knife fell into the grass, and then the man easily pulled out Tiqi's short blade and slashed it at his neck.
The right side of Ti Cai's abdomen was pierced by a shot, the bone of his right wrist was misplaced, and his left hand held the short spear that pierced into his body, preventing it from turning over in his body, and at this time he could only watch the blade flash and cut the blood vessels in his neck.
The man with the gun did not move quickly. In fact, he didn't plan to be too fast, he liked to let everyone who fell into his hands enjoy the fear of death to the fullest, so he moved slowly.
It's also very stable.
"Whew!"
An arrow came in a flash of arrows.
Pulling the trigger, the sound of the arrow breaking through the air made the corner of the gunman's mouth twitch slightly.
The short blade instantly changed its trajectory, cutting off the feather arrow that was shooting at the front door, and then suddenly pulled out the short spear and roared loudly: "Over there! ”
The three Erli killers who had been watching the man with the gun kill people instantly dispatched and ran in the direction where Xie Shence was hiding.
