Chapter 168: Just a Striker

On September 14, 234 of the Tianli calendar, Zhang Tie led the soldiers of Biancheng County to repel the Mongols for the first time.

The soldiers of the middle fortress cried for nearly half a cup of tea, and a cry made all the soldiers become very different, and their spirits seemed to have been sublimated and reborn.

"Let's go, everyone, and clean up the battlefield."

Cao Shuangxi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said loudly, his tone indescribably brisk.

"Good!"

The soldiers wiped tears from their faces, rolled up their sleeves, and began to clean up the battlefield.

This time, in addition to the three people who died, the other thirty or so injured soldiers were actually just wrist injuries, and they were all fine, and during the time when they cried just now, they were almost all right, and the superposition effect of the attributes was not covered.

The fortress was full of arrows shot by the Mongols, to say the least, there were two or three thousand branches, densely packed.

Most of the arrows of these arrows are made of the teeth of wild beasts, and although the lethality is not as great as that of iron, the hidden destructive power of these arrows is quite terrifying.

Most of the people who are injured by these special arrows will suddenly fall seriously ill after two years.

Sick people only have a low-grade fever, loss of appetite, nausea, headache, fatigue, malaise, etc., which is just like a "cold" at first.

Fear and restlessness may follow, sensitivity to sound, light, wind, pain, etc., and a feeling of tightness in the throat.

Then it gradually enters a state of high excitement, which is highlighted by extreme fear, hydrophobia, wind intolerance, episodic pharyngeal muscle spasm, dyspnea, difficulty urinating and defecating, and excessive sweating and salivation.

Then the sick person will gradually become quiet, but there will be flaccid paralysis, especially limp paralysis. The ophthalmic muscles, facial muscles, and masticatory muscles can also be affected, and the manifestations are strabismus, eye movement disorders, jaw dropping, mouth inability to close, and facial expression.

In the end, nature is death.

The Mongols regarded this effect as a blessing from the heavens, helping them to deliver a powerful blow to their enemies.

In fact, this is just rabies, because the arrows are made of the teeth of animals, and most of these animals are vicious wolves on the grassland.

Most of the wolves' teeth carry the rabies virus, and people with average or weak body resistance will be infected and infected with rabies.

Unfortunately, most of these special shafts have been broken and can only be collected and re-forged.

This time the battlefield was cleaned very quickly, and that was because there was nothing left for them to clean except for the arrows on the fortress.

When the Mongols retreated, they had taken with them their dead people, their weapons and mounts.

……

"Cao Shuangxi!"

Seeing that the soldiers were about to clean up, Zhang Tie suddenly shouted to Cao Shuangxi, who was extinguishing the wolf smoke in the distance.

"Huh?"

Cao Shuangxi turned around and looked at Zhang Tie suspiciously.

"Master! Can I help you? ”

"And then."

Zhang Tie kicked away the arrows under his feet, took out the military talisman of Border City County from his arms, and threw it at Cao Shuangxi. The talisman fell right in front of Cao Shuangxi and was caught by him with one hand.

"You first ride a horse to Biancheng County, transport all the shields recovered last time, and directly let the disciples of the Wudang Sect consign them with horses, remember to be fast, I am worried that the Mongols will not take long and will attack again soon."

"Will it come?!"

Zhang Tie's words made Cao Shuangxi and all the soldiers stunned, and then their faces changed greatly, although they had repelled the Mongols, they didn't think that with their current situation, they could resist the Mongols' attack again.

"Yes, there are only more than 100 people who attacked this time, which is completely inconsistent with the four or five hundred people you said, I'm afraid those people just now are just their forward troops."

Zhang Tie nodded, his expression was a little solemn, this was not Zhang Tie's random speculation, first, it was indeed as he said, the number of people who attacked this time was too small.

Moreover, the system did not indicate the death of other soldiers, which means that the other pillboxes were not attacked, only their fortress was attacked by the Mongols.

The second is that when the system issues a mission, there is also a prompt, 'defeat the enemy's striker', which is already obvious, and the Mongols definitely have follow-up troops.

"I'll go now."

Knowing the seriousness of this, Cao Shuangxi immediately ran to the horse camp behind the fortress and gave up the practice of extinguishing the wolf smoke.

Since the Mongols might still come, it would be better to let the wolf smoke continue to burn, just in case.

"Drive!"

Cao Shuangxi found his horse, turned over and rode his horse, clamped the horse's belly with his feet, and hurried at full speed in the direction of the border city and county.

Looking at Cao Shuangxi who was going away, Zhang Tie secretly prayed in his heart, "I hope I can catch up, double happiness!" It's up to you. ”

......

Not long after Cao Shuangxi left, Yan Beichen and Wei Yan led the soldiers stationed there, and appeared at the middle fortress almost at the same time.

Looking at the intact lord (master) on the fortress, Yan Beichen and the others were secretly relieved, and then they were happy.

Since the lord (master) is safe and sound, and there is nothing else on the ground except horseshoe prints and arrows.

That shows that the lord (master) defeated the Mongols, and being able to defeat the legendary invincible Mongols is enough to prove the strength of the lord (master).

The two teams stayed outside the fortress, packing up the arrows outside the fortress, while Yan Beichen and Wei Yan walked towards the top of the fortress.

As early as when Yan Beichen and Wei Yan appeared two kilometers away, Zhang Tie had already spotted these two teams and had been standing at the top of the fortress watching them.

As for the soldiers stationed in the middle fortress, some ate in the canteen, some worked on fortifications.

To do fortifications, in fact, is to cut down trees, prepare some planks that can block arrows, and erect them on the top of the fortress, so that the pressure on the sword and shield soldiers can be reduced, and the archers can better counterattack.

"The subordinates (disciples) are late, and they hope that the lord (master) will forgive their sins."

As soon as they got to the fortress, Yan Beichen and Wei Yan came to Zhang Tie, clenching their fists and bowing their heads, as if they had done something wrong.

The appearance of the two at this time was not very good, their faces were dusty, because they were in too much of a hurry, and their armor was also a little messy, not at all like the commander of a hundred soldiers.

"Okay, okay, how can I blame you for this, the speed of your support is already very fast."

Zhang Tie stretched out his hand to help the two of them up, and then sorted out the armor for the two of them to prevent them from looking sloppy.

From the appearance of the two of them, Zhang Tie could guess that both of them came in a hurry, otherwise they would not be disheveled.

And from the time the soldier lit the firewood to produce wolf smoke, until now, more than half an hour has passed, which is enough to show that both of them rushed to support with all their might.
