Chapter 101: Leading by example

Mu Qingyun took a deep breath and pulled out the soft sword at her waist, she wanted to take the few archers in the team to create obstacles for the Great Zhou reinforcements.

Although because the number of people on both sides is too large, the time for them to stop each other must be very short, but even so, she must do her best to buy Ji Yongan and them valuable time to adjust the formation and make arrangements.

While striding forward, Mu Qingyun touched the shoulder bag on his waist without a trace, and the bulging shoulder bag made Mu Qingyun's mood calm down slightly.

A group of people came to the most suitable position for opening bows and arrows, and Mu Qingyun found a place with the right wind direction as a place for him to make a trick.

Before the enemy appeared, she shook the medicine bottle in her hand and said to her comrades: "Wait a while, if I tell you to hold your breath, you will hold your breath immediately, and if you are asked to retreat, you will retreat immediately, remember?" ”

When everyone saw that she was holding a small white porcelain medicine bottle in her hand, they all guessed that she was trying to drug the enemy, so they all responded loudly.

These big-headed soldiers are ordinary people living at the bottom of society, and they don't care what tricks are above board, what tricks are insidious and despicable.

The only thing that matters to them is to be able to live and win, and as for what is the means to survive and win the war, they don't have the extra mind to care.

Finally, the reinforcements of the Great Zhou Dynasty came in the strict battle of Mu Qingyun and others, and the general who led the team was very cautious, he did not let the men and horses he brought rush straight because of the urgency of time, but sent scouts to investigate.

Soon, the scouts reported that Da Chu had sent people to guard the mountain pass back to the large army of Great Zhou's reinforcements.

The general who led the team immediately adjusted the distribution of personnel in his team, and he asked the archers to be moved to the front of the line, and the other soldiers with spears and knives were placed in the second half of the line.

There were a large number of them, and the archers were more than a hundred times that of Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan's side, and soon the arrows on Da Chu's side were exhausted, and Mu Qingyun and them were so overwhelmed by the other party's arrow rain that they couldn't raise their heads at all.

At this time, the convenience of the terrain was not so important, and the reinforcements of the Great Zhou Dynasty were approaching step by step with an absolute numerical advantage, so that Mu Qingyun and they could only give up their bows and arrows, and prepared to fight with the opponent with melee weapons such as knives and guns.

However, the other party will not give up their advantage in attack distance so simply, the more Mu Qingyun and their side want to fight hard in close combat, the more the other party wants to solve all of them with a bow and arrow.

What the generals led by Da Zhou didn't know was that in the team that had been retreating in an orderly manner, it didn't actually include Ji Yongan and Mu Qingyun, who were planning to secretly make small moves.

At the critical moment, these two people made the same choice as the first soldiers, they invariably chose to let the other soldiers retreat in an orderly manner, while they were alone in the ambush of the Great Zhou reinforcements.

This is not because they want to show themselves and make miraculous feats, but with such a huge disparity in numbers between the two sides, if they want to drag the Great Zhou reinforcements, they can only risk their lives.

The two of them took all the poisons and fascination with them. All the medicine was taken out, and when the Great Zhou reinforcements were within the effective distance of their powder, the two of them would sprinkle the powder while changing their hiding place under the cover of trees and weeds.

Their skills are far better than ordinary soldiers, so they can take risks and fight for a glimmer of life for themselves and their comrades-in-arms in this way.

However, the Great Zhou reinforcements were not fools, seeing that the comrades-in-arms in front of them suddenly began to fall unconscious for unknown reasons, or foaming at the mouth and spitting black blood, the Great Zhou soldiers behind suddenly stopped chasing the footsteps of the Great Chu generals.

Instead of advancing, they sent men to update the group leaders in the rear.

The general of Da Zhou, who led the team, quickly made a judgment, "They are using poison!" Cover your nose and mouth first, and lift your brothers who are still alive out of the reach of the poison. ”

Then they tore off their shirts and covered their mouths and noses.

What they didn't know was that in fact, the medicinal powders made by Mu Qingyun and Yan Nanxiao could only float in the air for about twenty breaths at most.

As soon as they stopped and watched the situation, the medicinal powder that Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan sprinkled had all fallen into the soil on the ground because of the gravitational pull of the earth.

Unless one of them was idle to touch the ground with his bare skin, or one of them had a hole in his shoe, or was simply barefoot and unshoeed, they would not be attacked by the toxin again.

By the time these Great Zhou soldiers carried their comrades elsewhere, Mu Qingyun and He Shuning had already retreated to a hundred meters away.

They did not rush to join the other Great Chu soldiers, but were ready to continue to venture into danger alone.

Mu Qingyun knew that she wouldn't be able to last too long - she was not a martial arts genius like He Shuning after all, plus she had learned a lot of miscellaneous, and the time spent on learning martial arts was less than half of He Shuning's.

Since she can't learn from He Shuning's "one force to ten meetings", then she can only use her brains as much as possible to surprise Zhou Jun.

Mu Qingyun thought very well, but the Zhou army was in a hurry, they didn't want to wait for themselves to arrive at Guyuan City, Guyuan had completely fallen into the hands of the Chu army.

At that time, let alone reinforcing Guyuan, it would be very good for them to guarantee that they would not be dumpled by the Chu army.

In order to be able to arrive in time, the Great Zhou general who led the team directly sent a hundred-person squad to act as a death squad, and this hundred-person squad was scattered to search forward, even if Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan had more poison, it was impossible to sprinkle poison powder everywhere they passed.

In other words, this hundred-person team will definitely be able to find one or more safe paths for the Great Zhou soldiers behind them.

As for those who were poisoned or killed, they used their own death to announce to their companions the location of the enemy.

As a result, Mu Qingyun and Ji Yongan's situation suddenly became dangerous.

Seeing that they couldn't do anything, the two immediately made up their minds to join the other Great Chu soldiers.

However, before they could retreat to safety, someone from Da Zhou's death squad had already noticed the two of them.

In an instant, Ji Yongan and Mu Qingyun were already surrounded by the Great Zhou soldiers.

"Go and see if people are dead, and if they are not, tie them up as a meat shield." As soon as the general of the Great Zhou who led the team gave an order, someone immediately rushed towards the place where Ji Yongan and Mu Qingyun had been found before.

However, what made them both disappointed and shocked was that neither Ji Yongan nor Mu Qingyun were killed by their random arrows.
