Chapter 85: Ambush
The golden black fell in the west, and the jade rabbit rose in the east. A crescent moon hung in the sky, casting silver moonlight onto the earth. The enchanting night scenery and the unpolluted nature of the Middle Ages have an intoxicating atmosphere.
However, no amount of beautiful night can hide the cruelty of reality - a bloody killing is about to take place.
A group of cultivators, dressed in a way that did not conform to the aesthetics of medieval people, was marching, and it was a six-person squad. I don't know if these people were too confident or unvigilant, and they didn't care that they would reveal their whereabouts as they went, and they talked as they went, and the sound of their voices was heard far and wide in the silent night.
These English practitioners are living too comfortably, and they don't have a sense of crisis at all.
Lei Han pursed his lips, the other party was so careless that he saved him a lot of work.
"Kill!"
A group of English men dressed in rags like beggars more than soldiers came out from the front with wooden spears, and their presence made the practitioners on the march nervous.
"Haha......"
When they saw the enemy's appearance, the English cultivators couldn't help but laugh.
The spear made of wood, with a little bit of iron on the head of the spear, and a body that was so thin that it was barely a tael of flesh, and a thick breath of weakness came to the face. Such a guy dares to come to find trouble, I really don't know whether to live or die.
Think you outnumbered us and could beat us?
Dream on.
The five warrior-type cultivators rushed forward with a smile, while the remaining cultivators, who were obviously Fa-system, watched the play behind them with their hands crossed. In the eyes of these six cultivators, the enemies they killed were just a dish, nothing but a little more experience and a pitiful loot for them.
As it turned out, the practitioners were right. The practitioner who rushed to the front with an axe easily slashed an opponent to the ground, and the companions behind saw this and confirmed their judgment more and more - although the opponents were numerous, they were vulnerable and would not pose a threat to themselves.
As soon as you let your guard down against the enemy, disaster begins.
The cultivators were relieved and were about to start a killing spree, but the situation suddenly changed.
Several spears stabbed at him, both swift and ruthless, and the axe warrior, who had just slashed an enemy, did not expect his opponent to suddenly become stronger, and in a hurry he only had time to block the two spears that stabbed him in the head, and he was struck in the chest, abdomen, and throat.
Puff puff......
The muffled sound of the blade piercing into the ** made the axe warrior only feel a burst of coldness from his body, and then a sharp pain hit, and his vision went black.
What's going on?
So that the axe warrior did not understand what happened until he died.
Just as he was sending the Axe Warrior's body to the ground, two of his companions followed in his footsteps—the suddenly stronger enemy caught them off guard, and several spears pierced several holes in their bodies, killing them.
The Dharma cultivators in the rear could clearly see that when the first row of enemies was cut down, the enemies who came up immediately after the substitutes were dressed no differently, but their momentum changed greatly, and it was the difference between a soldier who had killed people and an ordinary civilian.
"Damn, we were fooled."
The Dharma cultivators shouted in anger.
Yes, they were fooled. The enemy deceived them, placed the weak in front, made them lose their vigilance, and then seized the moment of their psychological relaxation, and the real killer hidden in the enemy suddenly launched a cold arrow.
Needless to say, we know we've been fooled.
The remaining two warriors were drenched in a cold sweat, but fortunately they didn't rush quickly, because they were one step too slow to be killed. The death of their companion frightened the two warriors, and they turned and ran without hesitation.
There are many people on the other side, they have an absolute numerical advantage, and they killed their three companions by cheating, and Pu halved their strength as soon as they fought, how can they fight?
Without the confidence to confront the enemy, there is only one way to survive - and that is to escape!
Cultivators have long known that if a forced mission falls into the hands of the enemy, it is a dead word, and it is simply unrealistic to save one's life by surrendering, at least so far.
It's just that if you escape, you must be able to escape?
Lei Leng smiled coldly, if I let you escape, how can my whereabouts be kept secret?
The two warriors who were fleeing noticed that their fellow mages looked at them with a look of horror, as if they had seen something incredible. They were wondering when there was a sharp pain in their ankles, and the two of them were unsteady on their feet and fell down.
A red skeleton stood behind them, and judging by the dirt on the skeleton's body, it had been hiding underground for a long time, waiting to sneak up on them.
The two warriors knew that this was the end, and their ankles were pierced by a steel fork made of unknown material, making it difficult to run, or even stand. Seeing the quacking red skeleton and the spearmen who quickly surrounded them, the eyes of the two warriors were full of despair.
We should have known a long time ago, since the other party has set a trap, how can we be allowed to escape easily.
Remorse and despair made the two warriors almost collapse, and they opened their mouths to shout for help, expecting that other cultivators nearby would hear the sound and rush over to save them, but unfortunately the other party did not give them a chance at all. The red skeleton reached out and pinched their throats, cutting the cry from its source.
A rabbit bites when it's in a hurry, let alone a cultivator?
The two warriors raised their hands to resist, but unfortunately they had to deal with more than just the red skeleton and an enemy, and the spearmen who surrounded them unceremoniously stabbed with their guns, and the two poor warriors suddenly became a hornet's nest.
All five warriors were killed, and the remaining mage did not escape his fate. Just as the mage was caught in the battle ahead, an invisible and insubstantial air arrow broke his neck. The mage opened his mouth wide but couldn't make a sound, and fell to the ground with unwilling eyes.
None of the six cultivators ran away, and all of them were wiped out. During the whole process, Lei Han only issued a few orders, and he didn't even make a hand. The reason why there was such a brilliant result was not only the carelessness of the English cultivators themselves, but also the repeated arrangements of Lei Han. Of course, the most important thing is the asymmetry of information between the two sides.
Lei Han knew about the English cultivators, and the latter did not know about the existence of Lei Han, so it was not difficult to succeed with a mind or not. Isn't there a good saying: open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend.
"Goo-goo-goo......"
There were three strange bird calls in the distance, and Lei Hanhou raised his eyebrows, this was the sentinel he sent to a high place to monitor the situation nearby. Since Lei Han had decided to ambush the cultivators in England, it was impossible not to pay attention to the situation around him. The spearmen who did not become soldiers did not fight well head-on, but it was still possible to hide in a hidden place and lookout, so eight spearmen were sent out by Lei Han. The strange bird call was the code set by Lei Han.
Just solved a six-person squad, and another three-person squad, the number of cultivators in England is really quite a lot. Anyway, let me take the pressure off the population for you.
