Chapter 100: It's Too Late
(Thanks to Hancock for his love words)
Li Xian hid behind the tree and did not move, and when Luo Fu and the others were shooting arrows in front, he was on the big tree above the heads of those white-clothed people. The feather arrow attracted the attention of those people in white, so Li Xian was able to take the opportunity to kill the two of them. This was Li Xian's first contact with Luo Yi's scouts, and Li Xian was sure that this was a group of opponents who were even more difficult than Wen Yi's Long Tingwei.
Li Xian never underestimated the wisdom of the ancients, on the contrary, he always thought that modern people lacked the agility of the ancients in many times. Therefore, even in the era of cold weapons, he will not underestimate the tactical literacy of the soldiers. Dressed in white in the snow, it can be seen from this that this small team should not be underestimated. When chasing and killing Ashina Duoduo, he didn't forget to change his costume according to the changes in the weather and terrain, which made Li Xian have to have a little admiration.
I had carefully observed when I was sheltering in the big tree before, and there were a total of thirty-two white-clothed people chasing behind Ashina Duoduo, if Wu Luan didn't lie, it means that at least eighteen people died at the hands of these two girls along the way. It can be seen that these two women who look soft and weak are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they must have played counterattack tricks along the way. Li Xian has always felt that women are ruthless, and they are often more unbelievable than men. For example, at this time, Wu Luan, who was hiding in a big tree and holding a hard bow, with blood stains on the corner of his mouth, was so seriously injured that he actually stiffened up and followed Li Xian and them, speeding behind them, without falling behind at all. The girl who looks weak and can't help the wind is still oozing blood on her back, and the appearance of gritting her teeth and holding a bow to kill the enemy will make people sincerely admire it no matter what.
In fact, Li Xian had a brief ideological struggle about whether to save Ashina Duoduo. After all, she was a foreign woman, and she was also the pearl of the Turkic Shibi Khan. No matter what the purpose is, Luo Yi will kill her if he wants to kill her. This is a thing that has no conflict of interest with himself at all, not to mention that Lu Shisan, who was sent by Luo Yi not long ago, also expressed maximum goodwill. Although Li Xian knew that Youzhou Jingqi did not raze Yanshanzhai to the ground, there was a big factor in Lu Shisan's person, but if Luo Yi gave a death order, Lu Shisan would definitely never drag people up the mountain with mud and water.
The light horse got off the horse, and the combat power was still much higher than that of the Yanshan thieves.
The Youzhou soldiers are one of the most elite border troops of the Great Sui, and their combat power is definitely not something that some rabble can contend with. Therefore, no matter what Luo Yi's purpose is, after all, he has helped him a lot, and morally speaking, he also owes others a favor, and he should not meddle in other people's affairs no matter what.
But in the end, Li Xian decided to come to the rescue, the reason was very simple, because he couldn't understand something, so he had to do it and then confirm it.
The Great Sui collected an army of one million, and the people twice as many as the soldiers conquered Goguryeo, why did the Turks honestly not take the opportunity to go south? When Li Xian came back from the grassland, they accidentally burned the wooden city where Ashina went to Hu, which can be said to have unexpectedly helped Dasui relieve a crisis. According to the surname of the Turks, they will definitely not give up on this, and if Mucheng is gone, will they have no coveting for the prosperous world of the Great Sui? But why did the soldiers and horses of the Great Sui fight fiercely with the Goryeo soldiers in Liaodong, and the Turks watched from the wall so properly?
Is there someone or something that has affected Shibi Khan?
Although Li Xian had only been in contact with Luo Yi once, he could clearly feel that General Huben had grown a clump of grass called ambition in his heart, and it was no longer the strongest Great Wall in the Great Sui, and it had even become a hidden danger that threatened the safety of the Great Sui. When a person's ambition is no longer just the word general, in fact, it has long been pure. If it was possible, Li Xian didn't think that Luo Yi would not be able to lure the Turks into the customs and block the million-strong army of Liaodong in a foreign land.
Therefore, Li Xian decided in the shortest possible time to save the woman and let him go back to the grassland.
Li Xian didn't know if there was a person in history who influenced Shibi Khan, and another person who influenced Luo Yi, which caused the army that returned from the first defeat of Goryeo to not be fatally dealt again.
Is there such a person who is playing his current role? Or is the role he is playing now really in history? For example, when Ashina Duoduo was chased and killed, was there really a group of horse thieves on Yanshan who were not much different from her own people who saved her? Thus changing the course of the whole history so that there was no major invasion by foreign peoples?
If there really is such a group of horse thieves, do they know that they have done a big, big thing?
This is a very interesting and even weird way of thinking, and Li Xian often thinks about it when no one is around. He always feels that every era is plump, and one more person will be intolerable, and the historical Zhang San, Li Si, Wang, Wu, Chen, Liu, Xue, and Qi Mazi are all real, so Li Xian thought, did he come out of thin air, did he replace one of them?
In this way, Li Xian thought, is the path he is taking now unique to himself? Still is...... In fact, there are really traces to follow in history?
The more complicated you think about something, the easier it is to drive people crazy.
Li Xian is not crazy yet, because he is a person who regards survival as his first goal, and it doesn't matter if he takes his own path or someone else's path, let others fuck him.
Therefore, the way of survival over the years is destined to have the same paranoia in Li Xian's thoughts, as well as the cunning of a fox and the ferocity of a wolf. It doesn't matter if it's good or evil, it's all based on a single thought.
Save Ashina Duoduo, if you can really stop the Turkic wolf from riding south, then Li Xian will do it, and there is no hypocritical guilt to be sorry for anyone. Li Xian, who grew up listening to the storytelling stories of the Yue family general Yang Jiajiang since he was a child, how could he not bear to be a national hero when he found out that he had a chance to be a national hero? This is a kind of complex, a kind of emotion that can be unscrupulously released after the past life is aggrieved and unable to change the status quo, but can be unscrupulously released after arriving in this era, this emotion has a name that sounds very nonsense, not patriotic, has nothing to do with the country, and is called national dignity.
Born in the Great Sui, even if he doesn't think he is a Sui person, at least, Li Xian knows that he is still a Han.
It seems that Li Xian's actions have no basis to follow, but in fact, there is an insurmountable bottom line in his heart.
Li Xian is not an angry young man, he is just a person with a bottom line.
Leaning on the big tree, Li Xian closed his eyes and recalled the position of the white-clothed people he had just observed, took a deep breath and then popped out from behind the tree, there was already a hard bow in his hand, and at the moment when he took off into the air, the crossbows in three directions almost simultaneously pulled the machine, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows quickly came and nailed to the big tree behind Li Xian. Li Xian, who jumped up like an eagle falcon, shot an arrow in mid-air, and the arrow nailed a white-clothed man to the ground like a meteor.
After landing, Li Xianmao galloped forward with his waist down, and the crossbow rang out suddenly, and the crossbow arrows kept passing behind him. Li Xian's speed was amazingly fast, and when he rushed to the front of the next big tree, he kicked on it violently, jumped up high, turned over in the air, and shot an arrow again, and the feather arrow accurately found a white-clothed man who was still firing a crossbow, and the arrow shot into the left eye socket and pierced through the back of the head, and the man didn't have time to let out a miserable cry and then leaned back.
At the same time, Luo Fu and the others once again began to strike at the white-clothed people who were exposed because of the pursuit of Li Xian, and the feather arrows flew over accurately and shot over four or five people.
Wu Luan gritted his teeth and shot an arrow through the throat of a man in white. As the man fell clutching her neck, she slid off the trunk. A few crossbow arrows were nailed to the place where she was hiding before, and if she was half a beat slower, she was afraid that she would be shot to death. Her face turned pale, she bit her lip tightly and rushed over, pulling Ashina Duoduo, who had fallen to the ground, to drag behind the tree. Several men in white saw her and immediately aimed their repeaters at her.
More than a dozen crossbow arrows came one after another, shooting straight towards Wuluan and Ashina Duoduo. Just as the crossbow bolt was about to shoot at them, Li Xian jumped over like a cheetah to block them. kicked Wu Luan to the ground with a kick backwards, and Li Xian, who had already changed to a straight knife in his hand, splashed a knife light in front of him. The sound of clanging was endless, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows were accurately split by him. More than a dozen knives in a row, incredibly fast! At this moment, what Li Xian didn't seem to have chopped was not a crossbow arrow, but those small wooden sticks that he had split when he was practicing.
Luo Fu and the others rushed over, suppressed the man in white with feather arrows, and protected Li Xian to drag Ashina Duoduo behind a big tree.
"It's a tough idea!"
Luo Fu hurriedly said to Li Xian.
Li Xian nodded: "You suppress, I'll go over!" ”
With a brief answer, Li Xian rushed out from behind the tree again.
Luo Fu and the others did not bring a repeater because they were out hunting, this kind of medium-distance confrontation was obviously worse than the repeater, and seven or eight people fired arrows at the same time to suppress the man in white, and soon they were pressed by the crossbow arrows of the man in white and couldn't lift their heads. And in such a short period of time, Li Xian has disappeared from the sight of those people in white.
A leader-looking man frowned, turned around and asked in a low voice, "What about the young man in black?" ”
His scout shook his head, signaling that he hadn't paid attention either.
At this time, Li Xian squatted behind a big tree not far from the two of them, slowly and gently took off his black robe, and he took off the white clothes of a dead scout next to him and put it on slowly. Then he hung his black robe behind a tree, deliberately revealing a corner.
He slowly retreated a few meters away, and suddenly pointed to the place where he hung his black robe and shouted: "There! ”
Almost subconsciously, several white-clothed people hiding in the snow shot crossbow arrows at the black-robed almost at the same time. The corners of Li Xian's mouth twitched, and he rolled to the side of the man in white who was closest to him.
"Did you shoot?"
Li Xian asked the man in a low voice.
Without thinking, the man replied, "It should be ......."
He didn't say the rest of the words, and Li Xian didn't know whether he was hit or not. Because, at the same time as he spoke, Li Xian's dagger had already sunk into his throat. Covering the man's mouth, Li Xian fell in the snow. Soon, the snow was stained red with blood.
In this way, Li Xian quietly eliminated three or four white-clothed people, and then slowly approached the scout leader in slightly different costumes.
Just as Li Xian was behind him, raising his dagger and preparing to stab down, the man suddenly turned around sharply, and shot at Li Xian with a crossbow. The distance was so close that Li Xian had no way to dodge. In fact, Li Xian didn't dodge at all, and let a few crossbows hit his chest, Li Xian stabbed the leader into the temple, pulled out the dagger, and stabbed the other man in white into the heart with a backhand.
After killing two people in a row, Li Xian fell to the ground and gasped slightly.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said in his heart that the soft hedgehog armor given by Aunt Red Buddha was really good!
Just as he was adjusting his breathing and preparing to transfer again, Li Xian suddenly saw that just a dozen meters away, a man in white kicked Wuluan to the ground, and then raised his horizontal knife and stabbed Ashina Duoduo who was unconscious on the ground!
It's too late to save each other!
