Chapter 207: Two Arrows
Jianglong is here to hone himself and gain experience.
It's not a rush to play prestige, and to charge into battle.
There are many variables when the two armies are fighting, even if they have some skills in their hands and are not afraid of a frontal enemy, but if they are unlucky, a stray arrow can kill them.
The sergeants took advantage of the night to sneak slowly up the hill.
Many people have come here to suppress horse bandits, and they are very familiar with the terrain here.
And know that horse bandits have dug traps in many places.
They were cautious, first testing with branches, and only after finding that it was safe to move forward.
Many sergeants carried planks that were a few feet wide and four or five feet long enough to bear the weight of a human body, and when they found a trap, they laid them up.
In this way, when the sergeant on the left slowly touched about ten zhang or so, he was already very close to the watchtower erected by the horse bandits on the mountainside.
At this time, Fan Ren walked a few steps, his body was half-squatting, and he bent his bow and arrows.
The fingers were released, the bowstring trembled slightly, and two jet-black streamers pierced the night sky and shot straight through the two horse bandits on the watchtower.
The arrows came too fast without warning.
The two horse bandits didn't even scream, but instinctively grasped the shaft of the arrow with both hands, and their eyes widened and they lost their breath.
Silently, Fan Ren solved this obstacle with ease.
Tudu glanced at Gunty Buck.
In fact, Tudu's archery skills are not bad, but it is not good to shoot double arrows at one time.
In the darkness, the dark-skinned Gunty Buck could only see a pair of eyes, but at this time, there was a glint of disdain in his eyes.
It's just a little trick to carve insects!
Directly in front of the hill and on the right side, archery haode archers are also selected to remove obstacles.
If you charge hard, after alarming the horse bandits, the horse bandits will rely on the favorable terrain to defend against the rolling stones and thunderwood prepared in the past, so that the border army will suffer heavy casualties here.
So now it's as slow as possible to touch it up.
The closer you touch, the better.
Gunty Barker didn't want to let Fan Renzhuan be in front of the beauty, so he accelerated and came to the front of the line.
The sergeants all knew that Gunty Buck was Jiang Long's guard, so they didn't dare to stop it.
Only the commander who was in charge of leading the sergeant on the left flank, frowned slightly.
Fan Ren and He Huan are friends, and he is He Huan's henchman, so he knows Fan Ren better.
also planned to let Fan Ren open the way in front.
Shoot all the horse bandits in charge of the night vigil.
Now Gunty Barker had recklessly run to the front.
Gunty Buck has a bow in his hand, and anyone with a little brains can guess that he wants to compete with Fan Ren.
But this is not just a competition in the school field, and it is just a matter of winning and losing.
Now a bad one, alarming the horse bandits, will increase the difficulty of this operation.
Many sergeants will lose their lives for nothing.
And this can be avoided.
However, although the commander frowned, he finally did not say anything to stop it.
He didn't know about Gunty Buck, maybe this black man was really capable?
No matter what, it was also the guard by Jiang Long's side.
And Jiang Long's identity, He Huan had already told him.
This is Jing Xian, the only descendant of General Rentu!
In the eyes of the commander, he has respect for Jiang Long.
So I didn't dare to speak rashly.
This commander followed Jiang Long closely, obviously wanting to protect him, for fear that Jiang Long would encounter some danger.
They were very close, and Jiang Long naturally saw the expression on the face of the commander.
However, there is not much explanation.
No matter how much he said, he couldn't show his skills.
Fan Ren naturally saw through Gunty Buck's thoughts, and he was not angry or dissatisfied.
It's just a little worried, in case this guard of Jiang Long misses......
After going up about ten feet, the watchtower appeared again, and there were still two horse bandits on the tower.
The temperature in the north is high during the day and colder at night, so the two horse bandits on duty are wrapped in thick cotton clothes.
Cowering in a corner of the tower, huddled against each other, whispering and talking.
So you don't fall asleep.
Otherwise, if you really fall asleep, you will be found tomorrow morning, and if you report it to the chief, you will have to eat a horsewhip.
Several leaders attach great importance to the night wind, and they are very ruthless.
Someone has been beaten to death.
Therefore, the bandits on duty at night did not dare to be lazy.
After chatting for a while, the two of them would stand up and look around to see if there was anything unusual.
In order to reduce casualties, the sergeants were all extremely patient.
Gunty Buck is also not in a hurry, although he wants to compete with Fan Ren and compete, but he is not impetuous.
This made De Fan Ren interested.
Maybe this black man has real kung fu in his hands.
Gunty Bark figured out the pattern of the two horse bandits and immediately determined the best time to strike.
After a few moments, the two bandits got up again and walked around the watchtower, surveying the surroundings.
As they returned to their places and tried to sit down, Guntybak's fingers holding the bowstring let go, and the two arrows sank into their throats like meteors.
The two horse bandits also did not let out a scream, but died of their breath.
Blood gushed from the wound.
Guntybak lowered his bow, turned his head, and gave Fan Ren a defiant look.
The corners of Fan Ren's mouth were provoked by a touch of curvature.
When Mrs. Qian saw it, her mouth opened wide, and she was very surprised.
You must know that even in the army, there are not many such clever archers.
Jiang Long smiled, reached out and gently patted the commander on the shoulder.
The commander is a respectful bend.
I secretly admired in my heart, Jingfu really has a profound heritage, and it is worthy of being a family that has been inherited for hundreds of years.
At the same time, it is a pity that such a clever sharpshooter is not in the army.
The alien army is basically all cavalry, and most of them are good at shooting, if Guntibak and Fan Ren join the army, they will definitely be able to shoot and kill many alien sergeants.
Great Qi is generally defense-oriented, relying on the advantages of the city.
Horses are not as good as others, and there are few marksmen, unless a large-scale battle breaks out, or if you get the news in advance and surround and ambush it, it will be difficult to inflict casualties on the alien army.
The alien army is fighting the autumn wind, encountering the people of Daqi, or a few Daqi soldiers will rush to kill.
Seeing that there were many people in Daqi, he immediately ran.
Makes you angry, but you can't help it.
Therefore, the army treats this kind of clever marksman very preferentially.
Fan Ren was provoked to be competitive and wanted to compete with Gunty Buck.
However, this mountain bag is not very high, and further up, it is about to go to the cottage.
There is a gate in the cottage, there are five or six patrolling horse bandits on the door wall, an archer can't do it at all, and the army on the front and right has not yet come up, they can't act alone, otherwise they will be discovered, and it will be difficult to take the gate of the cottage with only one road.
The commander called the two men and commanded.
"You help the teams on the front and right to pull out the bandits who are looking out of the wind."
Fan Ren naturally has no problem.
Gunty Buck frowned, and then looked at Jiang Long.
His duty is to protect Jiang Long's safety, and it is not just a joke to compare with Fan Ren.
Don't forget about business.
Jiang Long waved his hand, "Go and come back quickly." "Apparently agreed.
But Gunty Barker was still a little hesitant.
At this time, Tu Du, who was standing beside Jiang Long, patted his chest lightly, signaling that he was there, so he could rest assured.
Gunty Buck nodded.
Then he didn't discuss it with Fan Ren, he just leaned over and touched it in the direction of the front.
Fan Ren smiled lightly, clenched his longbow, and dived in the direction to the right.
The front team and the right team were each led by a commander, because everyone knew that Fan Ren's archery skills were good, so the two archers with excellent archery skills in the team were specially assigned to the front and right teams respectively.
It's just that it's too dark tonight, and it's a little windy.
So these two archers did not dare to shoot easily.
At first, sneak and try to get as close as you can.
This will reduce casualties.
If any of the roads are accidentally discovered by horse bandits, everyone will immediately rush out.
The archers on the front and on the right were afraid to shoot arrows easily, so they were still in front of the first watchtower.
The two commanders who led the team were a little anxious.
It's not a way to drag it out like this, so if you can't do it, you can only rush hard.
He Huan and Cheng Ze stayed at the foot of the mountain and sat in the army to command the overall situation.
For a long time, there was still no attack, and He Huan was just a little confused.
Cheng Ze has always been unfazed, and his face is flat.
Much more stable than He Huan.
Why not lead the people of Lingtong County, quietly guarding the back mountain, without making the slightest sound.
Originally, those prisoners whispered softly, so why not give an order with a cold snort, whoever dares to say more will go back and increase the sentence for one year.
Now the prisoners already know that they are being locked up to be drafted for war.
It's not about repairing a house, sweeping the streets and having a full meal.
Where do you dare to say more?
An additional year in prison?
I don't know how many times I have to go to the battlefield, I'm afraid it's hard to save my life.
Guntybak's competition with Fan Ren was just a momentary competitive and a little unconvinced, but now he is trying to speed up as much as possible.
Because his first duty is to protect Jiang Long.
We must return to Jianglong as soon as possible.
But if you want to do it as soon as possible, you can't panic, otherwise it will be bad.
He was the only one who came this time, so he had to be careful if there were any traps under his feet.
Silently sneaking in the night, it took two quarters of an hour to pull out the two watchtowers, and then make a sound in advance before walking towards the frontal army, so as not to be misunderstood and attacked.
Gunty Buck was black, so striking that the Centurion easily recognized him.
Then he ordered his sergeants to hurry up the hill along the path of Gunty Bak.
There is no need to lay wooden planks, and the speed is naturally extremely fast.
Fan Ren was in a bit of trouble, and there was a horse bandit turtle on the watchtower that shrank for a long time before poking his head out to look around.
So it's a little slower.
For this, Gunty Buck has nothing to be proud of.
I didn't say I won.
However, Fan Ren has always been very confident in his archery skills, and he is inevitably a little unconvinced.
Quietly came to the gate of the cottage not far away, the three commanders discussed, and then asked Fan Ren and Gunty Buck if they could quietly shoot all the six horse bandits who were patrolling above.
Both shook their heads.
Shoot six arrows at once, they don't have the ability to do it.
When Jiang Long saw it, he opened his mouth to propose and let the two cooperate.
The two have long been a little sympathetic to each other, and their eyes lit up when they heard the words.
Then Fan Ren was in charge of the three bandits on the left, and Gunty Buck was in charge of the three bandits on the right.
Jiang Long lowered his voice and gave an order.
The two of them struck together, and the six arrows pierced the night sky with the sound of bowstrings, and sank into the throats of the six horse bandits.
Everyone who saw it was full of admiration.
Can't help but give a thumbs up!
But now was not the time to praise the two, and the three commanders immediately sent a dozen or so short, thin, and agile sergeants to climb the door wall.
A dozen or so people moved very quickly, just for a moment to climb the wall, and then lightly jumped into the door.
Squeak, the cottage door was slowly opened.
