Chapter 43: Repeater
Seeing that Mu Chenmo dodged this arrow, the Hun general below pointed his bow at Yang Xuan again, and shot at Yang Xuan with a whoosh, and the personal soldiers beside Yang Xuan blocked the arrow with a knife.
Mu Chenmo looked at the burly man riding on the horse below, with a layer of white fur trim on the edge of his black fur hat, wearing leather armor on his body, carrying an arrow bag on his back, taking arrows, pulling the bow, firing smoothly, and the arrows were not missing.
It would be good to see that eight out of ten arrows could be shot on his side, the soldiers' arm strength was different, the distance they shot was also near and far, and the action of taking arrows was not as fast as that of the other party.
Yang Xuan laughed out loud when he saw the scene below, he hadn't seen the Hun cavalry so embarrassed since he fought with the Huns.
Chong Mu Chenmo, who was in admiration, hugged his fists: "General Mu, good means." ”
Mu Chenmo returned the salute, thinking that the powerful one was still behind, and it would slowly ferment.
The two of them went down to the city wall together and returned to the handsome tent, Mu Chenmo said worriedly.
"I don't know what Li Meng's situation is in Yangguan."
Thinking about the empty city, Mu Chenmo's heart still sank, and the corpses on the wooden shelves burned for a day and a night before the corpses in the city were burned.
Li Meng took 30,000 people into Yangguan City, disinfection measures should be in place, don't have a plague, and whether the displaced people are willing to enter Yangguan to settle down.
Thinking about it, if there is no accident in Yumenguan, there shouldn't be anything big happening, and it's really not easy to go to Yangguan to see her.
Looking up at Yang Xuan: "General Yang, I want to go to Sunshine City to see their situation." ”
"Let's think about it together, I'll come and see from this side of Yumen Pass, and I don't know if Li Meng's kid can handle the affairs of Yangguan, I can rest assured that you can go and see it."
Yang Xuan looked at Mu Chenmo with satisfaction, the young man in front of him was extremely wise, resolute and decisive, not to mention, it was rare that he was still as careful as a hair, this son would become a great weapon in the future.
After obtaining Yang Xuan's consent, Mu Chenmo immediately set off for Yangguan City.
Sunshine City
Mu Chenmo didn't go directly to Li Meng when she arrived at Yangguan, she led the horse and turned around the street, only to see that the street had been scrubbed clean, and the ground was sprinkled with white quicklime.
It seems that the military doctor has done the disinfection measures, and the smoke of cooking is rising from the chimneys of several houses, presumably there are already displaced people moving in, and they turned around and came to the water source, and saw soldiers guarding it.
Mu Chenmo came to Li Meng's tent with confidence, opened the door curtain and went in, and saw Li Meng frowning and reading another letter.
"General Li, but what's the difficulty?" Mu Chenmo looked at Li Meng and asked.
Li Meng raised his head and immediately got up, let Mu Chenmo to his seat and spoke.
"General Mu, can you turn around in Yangguan City, I don't know if I'm worried, you come here to help me take a look." After speaking, he handed the letter in his hand to Mu Chenmo.
"I've been around town and doing a great job." Mu Chenmo took the letter and replied.
When I opened the letter, I saw that this was a war report that the leaders of the three major tribes of the Xiongnu were gathering the second group of men and horses, wanting to conquer Yangguan and Yumen Pass at one time.
"This message is accurate." Mu Chenmo asked after reading the letter.
Li Meng nodded, saying that the scouts had just found out the news, and if they were afraid that the Hun cavalry would not be able to hold Yangguan.
Mu Chenmo asked about the situation of the soldiers, and promised Li Meng that he would definitely come up with a way to fight the Hun cavalry in three days.
On the way back to Yumen Pass, Mu Chenmo thought about Li Meng's words, most of the reinforcements coming to the capital had not been baptized with blood, and their mental quality was poor, if the Hun cavalry forcibly attacked the city, they would inevitably suffer heavy casualties.
Thinking about those young faces, Mu Chenmo has never been as ruthless as he is now, why didn't he read more books about the war in the era of cold weapons in his previous life, and when he was annoyed, he suddenly remembered what he did with his neighbor's brother when he was a child.
As for how she forgot that this cold weapon was more powerful than a bow and arrow, the more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and hurried back to Yumen Pass.
returned to his room in the county office, Mu Chenmo didn't care about eating and freshening up, laid out the paper, took out charcoal, and began to recall Lian Nu's practice.
Qi Yu heard the little third son say that Mu Chenmo was back, and remembered that he heard people talk about the tragic situation of the Huns outside today, so he got up and came outside the house to praise Mu Chenmo.
But seeing Mu Chenmo sitting in front of the table with a contemplative look, he didn't dare to go in, and secretly looked at the door frame, and saw Mu Chenmo biting the pen, rubbing the paper, frowning, shaking his head and sitting in various movements.
Qi Yu was almost curious, what was Mu Chenmo doing, but he didn't dare to go in, he had a hunch that if he passed by at this time, then he would definitely be beaten very badly.
Mu Chenmo didn't know these careful thoughts of Qi Yu outside the door, she drew the general shape of Lian Nu from memory, but he couldn't remember the specific steps of the mechanism.
Picking his hair vigorously, he raised his head and saw Qi Yu probing his brain at the door, Mu Chenmo looked at him and asked.
"What are you doing there?"
Qi Yu rubbed over step by step, and curiously glanced at the paper that Mu Chenmo had spread on the table.
"Can you read it?" Mu Chenmo said disdainfully.
As soon as Qi Yu wanted to open his mouth, he saw Mu Chenmo's disdainful eyes, and he was unconvinced, so he picked up the paper on the table and looked at it carefully.
"General Mu, General Yang invites you over." A soldier said in a fist salute at the door.
Mu Chenmo snatched the paper from Qi Yu's hand, folded it into his arms, and followed the soldier out.
After discussing the military affairs from General Yang, he returned to his camp, put the drawings on the table, and went out to fetch water and wash up and prepare for rest.
Mu Chenmo woke up early the next morning, came to the table where the drawings were placed yesterday, and found that the drawings were missing, thinking that the windows were blown away by the wind without closing the windows at night, and looked around the house.
But I couldn't find it there, and I was shocked, I wouldn't be stolen, so I hurriedly walked outside and asked the soldier on duty last night, and no suspicious person appeared last night, and the soldier said no.
Mu Chenmo decided to go to Qi Yu to have a look, looking at him last night, he seemed to be very interested in this thing, maybe he could get it.
kicked Qi Yu's door open, lifted the quilt and found that Qi Yu was actually sleeping with Lian Nu, who was the same as on his drawing, Mu Chenmo was stunned.
Qi Yu opened his eyes and looked at Mu Chenmo standing in front of his bed with a black face, holding Lian Nu and shrinking in, and said in a stammering voice.
"What do you want to do?"
I saw Mu Chenmo grabbing his chest with his hand, Qi Yu jumped off the bed as soon as he swooped, and ran out without even caring about wearing his shoes, shouting for help in his mouth.
Mu Chenmo chased after him, the two ran and chased to the yard, picked up Nu and launched it in the direction that Mu Chenmo was chasing, and with a whoosh, the arrow flew straight over.
Mu Chenmo was startled and dodged, and saw Lian Nu's arrow hit a tree behind him, and the tree was pierced with a hole.
Qi Yu looked at the crossbow in his hand a little sluggishly, this power was so great, he walked to the front of the tree in disbelief and touched the hole.
Mu Chenmo saw that Qi Yu took the initiative to come over, and without saying a word, he started beating, and the crossbow hand-to-hand combat did not work at all, Qi Yu parried twice, and then heard a scream.
When people heard the movement, they hurried out, and when they saw Mu Chenmo actually beating Qi Yu, they hurriedly stepped forward and pulled away.
"You want my life, don't you?" Mu Chenmo stretched out his foot and was about to kick.
Qi Yu hurriedly dodged: "How do I know that this thing is so powerful." ”
Everyone looked at the things in Qi Yu's hand and felt strange, Mu Chenmo said.
"You did this?"
Qi Yu nodded arrogantly, but the white shirt on his body was dirty and his face was colorful, how funny it looked.
Mu Chenmo looked at the repeater in his hand and found that Qi Yu had made changes, but looking at the power just now, it still hadn't decreased.
I really didn't expect that this waste and troublemaking bag actually had the craftsmanship of a carpenter, looking at the finely polished repeater, Mu Chenmo still admired it a little.
The third son walked back with Qi Yu in his arms and looked at Mu Chenmo's back.
Qi Yu sneered, Mu Chenmo really impressed him, he was surprised by the previous means of dealing with the Huns, and now he has made a weapon comparable to the Hun cavalry, which is a bit interesting, it seems that he will have to pay more attention in the future.
The two of them thought about their thoughts and returned to their rooms.
