Ye Xiaotian hugged Xia Yingying and rolled on the ground, but a crossbow arrow still hit his calf, and the pain was immediately deep to the bone.

In fact, if Ye Xiaotian didn't roll close to the ground, this arrow might not hit him, because they were in the tent, and the assassins couldn't see their location at all, so they could only roughly estimate the possible location and shoot the arrow urgently, so it was a coincidence that Ye Xiaotian came up by himself.

However, in the middle of the game, how can you accurately judge whether the opponent's arrow can hit you? Once the arrow is in the body, it is impossible to dodge, no one can have such a fast speed, Ye Xiaotian has no other choice, and it is safer to lie on the ground after all.

His reaction was extremely fast, and he rolled on the ground with Yingying in his arms, and immediately rolled towards the edge of the tent. If there are people in the tent, the activity area must be mostly in the middle of the tent, and it will rarely be close to the tent fence, Ye Xiaotian has judged from the angle of the arrow that the other party is a crossbow arrow fired from the mountain, condescending, no dead angle launch, avoid the tent fence side is safer.

Ye Xiaotian avoided the edge of the tent, and immediately pulled the heavy felt blanket with pain, covering him and Yingying, with a thick layer of felt tent outside, plus the carpet on the body, even if there was a strong arrow to shoot them, after the buffer of these two layers of barriers, it would not cost their lives.

"The guards on the mountain must have been solved, they must be sent by Cao Zhan and Zhang Yang!" Ye Xiaotian patted Yingying's back in pain to comfort her composure, and thought anxiously.

Since he camped at the foot of the mountain, of course there must be guards on the mountain, because it is a key point that can be attacked and defended. There is no dense forest to hide on this hillside, Rao is so, there are as many as eight people sent by Ye Xiaotian to guard on the mountain, unless eight people are killed at the same time, but one person sends a warning signal in time, he will not be so embarrassed.

And he has no doubts about his loyalty to his subordinates, you must know that these people are brought out of the mountains by him, and those brought out of the mountains may not necessarily be tempted by the prosperity of the world. As a result, they lose their original faith and loyalty, but they will never fall so quickly, and they have always been operating in groups, even if someone wants to attack them, they will never approach or buy them privately.

Then, there is only one possibility: all eight people are wiped out. And it was a silent annihilation! Although the mountain is flat, not a jungle, these eight people can't actually use the jungle combat skills they are good at, but they can kill all eight guards silently, and the enemy is obviously extremely extraordinary.

"Protect your lordship!"

The guards outside roared. In the dark night, the enemy used long-range weapons condescendingly, and they suffered a lot, but they were not afraid, and immediately rushed to Ye Xiaotian's camp with all their strength, a row of warriors protected the big tent, and a row of warriors raised their big shields to launch a counterattack on the hillside.

Ye Xiaotian yelled: "Shrink the defense, you don't have to counterattack, you can brake quietly!" ”

The guards were loyal. Not afraid of life and death, Ye Xiaotian didn't want them to die in vain, the other party already had an advantage, if he attacked the mountain. I'm afraid that I have to sacrifice half of the guards, and the other party can silently kill the eight guards guarding the mountain, I don't know how insidious the deployment is on the top, once the counterattack goes up. The casualties are bound to be large, and now the only way to do it is to use static braking.

Fortunately, the other party could only take him by surprise, since he failed to kill him. Although he had the advantage and geographical advantage, it was impossible to kill him again under heavy defense. Ye Xiaotian had to wait for the other party to take the initiative to attack, so that he could take back the initiative.

The warriors of Woniu Mountain regarded Ye Xiaotian's orders as the decree of the law, and they were completely blindly obedient without brains. With Ye Xiaotian's order, they immediately closed down to the big tent and set up a defense line with a big shield.

"Oops! My mother! Mother, how are you? Yingying was shocked for a moment, and suddenly remembered her mother, and couldn't help but become anxious. She didn't know that Ye Xiaotian was hit by an arrow in her calf, and this struggle, when she touched the arrow on Ye Xiaotian's leg, Ye Xiaotian snorted in pain, and cold sweat rolled down when she landed.

"Yikes! You are injured, where are your injuries, is it serious? Yingying was so frightened that she asked with a crying voice.

Ye Xiaotian said: "I'm fine, don't worry!" Auntie, don't move, duck on the ground! You have to protect Aunt Xia! ”

Mrs. Xia's voice came from the noisy shouts and scolding: "The old body is fine, Yingying, don't move." ”

The other party had obviously put in a lot of effort, they knew which tent was Ye Xiaotian, and all the arrows were concentrated on Ye Xiaotian's side, and after Mrs. Xia was awakened by the shout, she immediately understood what was going on.

Although Mrs. Xia didn't know martial arts, her experience was not comparable to that of a beautiful girl like Yingying, so she immediately calmly turned over and landed on the ground, and put the bed on herself, without worrying about the arrows shot from a height.

Ye Xiaotian and Yingying heard her voice, and then settled down. Ye Xiaotian settled down, and then ordered: "After protecting the big tent, assign two roads of people and horses to slowly climb the mountain from the left and right wings!" The enemy is dark and I am clear, step by step, do not rush forward! ”

Outside said a deep promise, and the commander of the guards immediately began to distribute men and horses according to Ye Xiaotian's orders.

On the hillside, beside the swarthy rocks, there were several figures, dressed in black, with black scarves on their faces, blending with the rocks, and they could not see any traces at all.

"Childe, they sent someone to touch it from both wings."

"Withdraw!"

"Childe, it's still uncertain whether he's dead or not, we ......"

"There will always be a chance!"

The words were still in my ears, and the man in black who was called Gongzi had drifted away. In ancient times, there were swordsmen who were empty, missed a hit, and escaped thousands of miles. This black-clothed boy actually has the legacy of an ancient swordsman, and with only one blow, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, he doesn't notice success or failure, and he immediately escapes. The judgment of its benefits and losses is calm and terrible.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

At dawn, Ye Xiaotian limped one leg and pulled out an arrow from the grass, which was almost completely submerged in the soil, which showed its strength.

Ye Xiaotian looked at the well-made arrow, and his face looked extremely solemn. A guard hurried to his side and whispered, "My lord, the eight brothers on the mountain have all been assassinated. ”

Ye Xiaotian said in a deep voice: "How did you die?" ”

His hand gently stroked the arrow, and he heard the guard say: "Eight people, all of them were touched by people, and their necks were broken with their bare hands!" ”

Ye Xiaotian Huo Ran turned his head, if these eight people were killed by crossbow arrows, he would not be too surprised, but eight first-class hunters were quietly approached. Silently killing with bare hands, this ability is a little frightening.

The guard saw Ye Xiaotian's surprise and explained: "My lord, the night is dark, if you shoot with a crossbow arrow, you may not be able to hit the key point with one blow, and there will always be someone among the eight who will have time to send a warning signal." Instead, it is quietly approaching, so that it can be silent. The martial arts of the person who came are very clever, but no matter how powerful one person's strength is, it is actually nothing. ”

Ye Xiaotian was a little relieved. He nodded slightly. Although those eight people were originally hunters in the mountains, their alertness and skills were obviously inferior to Hua Yunfei, and a hunter like Hua Yunfei could not pick out one out of a thousand hunters, as long as the opponent was light and skillful, and quietly approached solving them one by one, it was actually not so difficult. This kind of personal martial arts, once used in battle arrays, is of very limited use. But it's the arrow......

Ye Xiaotian shook the well-made arrow in his hand. This is what really worries him! How many other parties are still with such terrible weapons? It would be a nightmare for the other side if he had a lot of such weapons in his hands.

Ye Xiaotian recognized it. This is a crossbow! It is neither a hunting bow nor a bamboo crossbow made by the mountain people, and its lethality is not at all the same as those weapons, if you have a large number of military crossbows. It can completely change the entire situation of the battle.

How terrible is a truly well-made crossbow? The range of a crossbow is twice as large as that of a bow, and crossbows in the Warring States period already had an effective range of 180 meters. To make a visual comparison of the words of modern pistols. Generally, the effective killing distance is only 50 meters, and a few powerful ones such as the "Sand Eagle" have an effective range of only about 100 meters.

Moreover, the crossbow arrow does not sink much when shooting, as long as the aiming is accurate enough, it is almost a 100% hit, but the pistol is not good, the distance is a little farther, and its beam is the same as the arrow, it becomes a parabola, not a straight line shot.

In addition, the recoil of the crossbow is far greater than that of the crossbow, if you use the five-four style, that is, the "big black star", aiming at the enemy at a distance of thirty meters, and want to shoot the head, the muzzle of the gun must be raised to about 18 centimeters above his head before it can be hit, and this has to be when the opponent is standing still, which shows the horror of the crossbow.

Of course, any kind of weapon has shortcomings, and there must be corresponding restraints, but at least in Guizhou, if any toast can prepare crossbows in large quantities, it is almost possible to block and kill people, and Buddha can block and kill Buddha.

What Ye Xiaotian was worried about was that if the four allied forces of Cao Zhan and Zhang Yang really exhausted their wealth and obtained a large number of crossbows from secret channels, then he didn't have to fight, and it was better to retreat to the mountains obediently. Although this kind of expensive military crossbow cannot even be widely equipped by the Ming military, for the local officials in Guizhou, their so-called "large amount of equipment" and the "large amount of equipment" of the Ming army are not the same concept.

Ye Xiaotian was a little scared of himself, he didn't know how difficult it was to obtain this kind of crossbow, in fact, there were only ten in the other party's hands, and ...... These ten military crossbows were originally intended to be equipped on Woniu Mountain to carry out the "beheading" plan on the battle array.

It is a pity that this batch of important military assets, which are of great value, has completely fallen into the hands of the enemy. And this enemy is a person he didn't expect at all.

"Brother Xiaotian, your legs ......"

Yingying rushed over and looked at Ye Xiaotian with some distress, his leg was shot through, and red blood was still oozing from the bandage at this moment.

"I'm fine!"

Ye Xiaotian gently patted her shaved shoulder: "I'm worried, there is a change in Guizhou, I have to rush back immediately." I'll send you some more guards, you and your aunt might as well go slowly, let's meet again in Tongren!" ”

"I ......" Yingying wanted to refuse, she knew that the killer's target was Ye Xiaotian, and Ye Xiaotian wanted to separate from them for the sake of their safety. The Xia family has its own guards, plus the people left behind by Ye Xiaotian, they can protect themselves under the premise that they are not the main target of the other party. But Ye Xiaotian ......

But looking at Ye Xiao's eyes, the words that came to her mouth were swallowed back by her. Yingying is also growing up quietly, although she is still a little willful, but she can also distinguish the severity, so she just nodded worriedly and said softly: "You are careful all the way!" ”

Ye Xiaotian nodded, turned his head to look in the direction of Guizhou, there were mountains and mountains in front of him, and there were many green mountains, and Ye Xiaotian's eyes showed a thick murderous aura. Now that he has reached a secret agreement with the imperial court, he was originally lawless, but now he is hanging, and he will not make a fuss this time!
