Chapter 10: Spoils of War
Dian Yong can be said to be a natural general, and Chen Wu is also a first-class player in the empire, so he quickly noticed the movement on both sides. Chen Wu's outstanding performance in the past has already made Dian Yong want to win. He pointed to the black scarf thief on Chen Wu's side and said, "One person is in charge of one side, see who kills first!" ”
"Good!"
Chen Wu was not surprised or rejoiced, and accepted it in one bite.
Having such a challenge proves that Dianyong has treated him as a collaborator who can be treated equally.
Big things can be expected!
Delighted, he pulled the feathered arrow from the quiver with his backhand, aimed at the slowly moving figure on the right, and suddenly let go after a moment.
The black-turban thief at the head was already very careful, bending over as he went, using the trees for cover. It's not easy to find a suitable opportunity. It's just that his movements are still too regular after all. Chen Wu grasped a advance amount and predicted that he would shoot an arrow.
The moment the arrow was fired, the black turban thief just emerged from behind the tree.
With a muffled "poof", an arrow entered the chest and was killed on the spot.
On the other side, Dian Yong shot an opponent at a faster speed, and without waiting for the remaining two black turban thieves to approach, he directly threw down his bow and arrow, drew his knife and took the initiative to kill him. The knife, which had been carefully sharpened by him during the day, exuded an icy murderous intent in the moonlight. The black scarf thief was so frightened by his archery skills that he didn't dare to show his head at all. When he noticed Dian Yong rushing up with a knife, it was too late to get up and meet the enemy in a hurry.
In the darkness, a snow-bright sword light flashed.
The black-turbaned thief didn't even snort, his head was cut off, and blood rushed to the sky.
A moment later, the headless corpse, which had lost its support, fell to the ground weakly.
In the direction of Dian Yong, a total of three black scarf thieves were touched. One of them was shot, the other was beheaded, and the last of them was already frightened by the ferocity of Dian Yong, and where could he dare to fight. Shout, turn around and run. Unfortunately, in a panic, he tripped over the roots of a tree exposed to the ground, and fell into the mud.
Dian Yong glanced at him disdainfully and slashed it with a knife.
"Fight!"
Seeing that he couldn't dodge, the black scarf thief who fell to the ground begged for life, drew his waist knife, and tried his best to parry the blow. It's a pity that his strength in a hurry is completely incomparable to Dian Yong's innate divine power. The waist knife, which was of decent quality, was directly slashed away, and it didn't even block it a little.
Blood splattered.
In an instant, all three of them were wiped out!
is so brave, not to mention the remaining black scarf thieves, even Chen Wu, who is ready to compete with him, is frightened. With the leisurely stroll that Dian Yong showed just now, he definitely didn't use all his strength. And during this period, Chen Wu himself had just shot a person, and it was simply incomparable.
"Damn, where did the evil star come from?"
"Run...... If you stay any longer, everyone will die here, and Lao Tzu hasn't lived enough! ”
In the dark, I don't know who lay on the ground and spoke, which immediately aroused the echo of the other black turban thieves. The leader of the Black Turban Thieves probably realized that it was impossible to take out the enemy. It only took a long time to lose one-third of the manpower brought out. If it continues to be consumed, I am afraid that I will be killed one by one, and in the end, there will be no scum left.
"I'll count it, and let's run together!"
He lowered his voice and greeted the remaining black scarf thieves, and he didn't care about the two people who were still confronting Chen Wu. After making a gesture, they suddenly jumped up from the ground, turned on their horses, and galloped away. Some of the black turban thieves were afraid that they would be killed if they ran slowly, so they were so panicked that they didn't even want the booty they were carrying on horseback, so they pushed down and fled lightly.
The people who sneaked up on them, after all, there were only two!
During the previous period, the black scarf thieves had also figured out that there was only a tripwire arranged nearby. If seventeen or eighteen people fled together, even if the enemy shot two more rounds, at most four would die, and most of the rest would still be able to escape.
However, Chen Wu's arrangement took effect.
seems to be an inconspicuous little trick, enough to trap three black scarf thieves. These unlucky people who were in a panic only cared about the two killing gods in the shadows, and they didn't pay attention to their feet at all. The galloping horses' hooves stepped on the potholes and rocks under the fallen leaves, and they lost their balance directly, and the horses fell lightly, and one of them was even swept out of the whole and hit the tree headlong.
The black scarf thieves who couldn't figure it out were suddenly in chaos.
Seeing that the remaining black scarf thieves fled and couldn't care about anything, Dian Yong's face was a little more sneering. He calmly picked up his bow and arrows and locked on to the leader of the black turban thief. It's not because of the thief who captured the king first, but because his green horse was under the other party.
It was the only reason for the ringleader's death.
Due to the waste of time, the leader of the black turban thieves had already run a distance of sixty paces by this time. If an arrow can't be shot, the other party may be able to escape with the help of night cover. Others didn't dare to say it, at least Chen Wu himself didn't have the confidence to hit at this distance.
Dian Yong was very calm.
Seeing that the enemy was getting farther and farther away, he did not rush to attack, but endured for about two breaths, and then pulled the bowstring full.
"Whoosh!"
The sound of the feathered arrow rubbing against the air at high speed sounded as if it were a declaration of death, and as the leader of the black turban thieves turned his head and looked at him with a frightened face, an arrow shot him through, and he immediately fell to his death.
The death of the leader completely broke the morale of the rest of the Black Turban Thieves.
Dian Yong has no grudges with the black scarf thief, and he has no idea of killing them all. He hurried over unhurriedly, killed several of the thieves who had fallen off the horse and were injured, and then summoned the green horse back with a whistle. Hearing the familiar voice of his master, the green horse couldn't help but be a little excited, and the four hooves ran to Dian Yong's side and hit him with his head.
At this time, Chen Wucai shot the second person.
This was because when he saw his companion fleeing, the two black turban thieves who confronted him panicked, and they couldn't help but turn around and run away. Chen Wu's reaction was quite fast, but he only had time to seize an opportunity. The last man could not be killed no matter what, and he escaped into the depths of the mountains and forests.
"It's okay!"
Just a scared thief, Dian Yong didn't take it to heart. Even if the black scarf thief really found any clues afterwards, Dian Yong didn't care.
If you dare to retaliate, you will kill it again!
Moreover, this time they offended the government and were killed again, so it is still a question of whether they dare to continue to stay in Longshan Mansion next.
"Looks like I won."
At the end of the qiē, stepping on the corpses all over the ground, Dian Yong glanced at Chen Wu and silently announced that he was the winner of the competition.
Chen Wu could only respond with helplessness and a wry smile.
Nine out of ten of the top generals in the late stage of "Empire" are NPCs, and it is difficult to compete with them in terms of force value. On the contrary, in terms of strategy and power, the players have an absolute advantage. The major super guilds and a small number of god-level players and local tyrants who are willing to spend a lot of money have joined forces to rule the mainland territory of "Empire".
Except, of course, the Sun Dynasty, which straddles the Central and Western continents......
As the mountains and forests calmed down again, Chen Wu ignored the pain of the wound on his head and began to clean up the battlefield with Dian Yong. Erase any traces that may reveal your identity, and then count the results. Because of the surprise of beating the black scarf thief, the results of the two can be called brilliant. He shot fifteen black turban thieves, including a black turban thief leader. As for the trophies, in addition to recovering Dian Yong's green horse, the two also collected nine ordinary horses. Four other horses were injured or simply scrapped, and three horses were frightened in the confusion and fled.
The entire Longshan Mansion and even Taiping County do not produce horses, and these horses left behind by the black scarf thieves in the panic not only mean wealth, but also have an important role and value.
For example, form a team of horses.
In addition to the horses, the two also harvested seven or eight tied live sheep, as well as at least five or six hundred catties of pigs and cattle and other meat, and there were even faint fresh blood stains oozing out of the corners. As for weapons, there are 16 pieces of crude iron swords, simple knives, and iron rulers. There is not much money, after all, the black scarf thief is going out to rob, and he must have set off empty-handed. The only ones on his body are probably snatched from the officials and the recruiters.
At the end of the count, there were twenty-five gold coins; There are more silver and copper coins, and the total value is about 100 gold coins.
Chen Wu went to work in the quarry, and was only paid five copper coins a day, and only one and a half gold coins a month.
One hundred gold coins, it would take him five or six years without eating or drinking to save enough.
