Chapter 179: Rushing the Pass

Tai Bitu originally wanted to say something, but in the middle of the fight, an arrow shot at him, Tai Bitu does not know martial arts, fortunately, Manchu people have to practice wrestling and riding archery since childhood, his physical reaction is not bad, he turned his head sideways, and avoided the edge of the arrow. ใ€Fengyun Reading Network. But although the arrow did not hit, it went close to his ear, and it actually wiped a bloody mark on his ear, which frightened Taibitu into a cold breath and was terrified in his heart.

The soldiers around him hurriedly raised their guns to protect them, and knocked down the other random arrows that came over.

Sun Yanling thought in the direction where those arrows were coming from, and said, "You protect Lord Tai." Then he took his sword and leaped in the direction from which the iron arrow had struck.

The person with the bow and arrow was obviously a leader of the other party, and when he saw Sun Yanling discovering his line of hiding, he picked up a spear and pounced on Sun Yanling viciously, and at the same time shouted: "Brothers, come quickly, this person is an official, take him down first."

With the man's words, more than a dozen people quickly surrounded Sun Yanling's side.

These people rushed in when Sun Yanling's position was not completely arranged, because they were the best at individual combat, and they had already prepared, so they attacked Sun Yanling's vicinity from the side, originally thinking of killing one or two people wearing official uniforms, so that the Qing army would mess up their position, but they didn't want to, but Sun Yanling found Xingzang.

Sun Yanling's skills are naturally not comparable to those bandits, but no matter where he kills, the bandits led by the leader will follow him, so that he is restrained everywhere and is relatively passive. Fortunately, the personal guards around him never left and right, some people held spears to push away the approaching bandits, some people held short knives to slash the hands and feet of the close bandits, and some people held crossbows to shoot from a distance, he only needed to concentrate on the bandit leader, seeing that the bandits who were besieging him were killing fewer and less, Sun Yanling didn't even hurt a single hair, and the bandit leader was in a hurry.

"Brothers, take down the one who wears official uniform, we will have wine, meat, and silver, otherwise we will die here today! Give Lao Tzu all his strength and kill him. He yelled.

The army pays attention to group cooperation, and the bandits pay attention to individual bravery, so in their opinion, as long as they win the battle of Sun Yanling, they will win the battle, when Sun Yanling came over before, they were still happy for his rashness, but now, Sun Yanling's strength is obviously beyond their expectations, and the contempt is put away a little, but in this battle, they are doing it with their lives, and they cannot afford to miss the slightest, and at this time there is no way back but to fight with all their might.

Because of the strength of not being afraid of death, the combat effectiveness of the bandits was much more courageous than before, and seeing that, Sun Yanling's own soldiers fell two or three.

The soldiers who escorted the quartermaster were sleepy and tired because of the repeated rushes, coupled with the sandwich attack of the mountain fires in front and back, although they were in formation, they were caught off guard and rushed to the battle, and then they were attacked by the bandits from the front and back, and they were harassed from the side.

As soon as the formation was disrupted, Sun Yanlin's side was trapped by a group of bandits, and the command and dispatch were not effective, and the bandit soldiers had the upper hand.

Sun Yanling saw that his side was losing the upper hand, so he simply raised his breath and jumped and killed the leader.

A bandit soldier just rushed towards him with a single knife, and saw Sun Yanling pass him in a flash, the bandit soldier was stunned, only to see Sun Yanling smile coldly, the long sword swirled, and then stabbed into his chest.

"Poof", the sword ate the bandit soldier through the heart, because the sword is too fast, although the sword is pierced by a sword, but the bandit soldier is still standing there dignified, the person next to him didn't see any movement, he saw Sun Yanling pull out the sword, the bandit "uh...... Uh......" opened his eyes wide, his body jerked a few times, and a large mouthful of dirty blood gushed down the corner of his mouth, and then fell to the ground.

Before the others could react, Sun Yanling had already swiped two swords left and right, stabbing the two bandits closest to him. Then he stretched out his hand to the soldier with the bow and crossbow beside him, took the bow and arrow, put the two arrows together on the string, pulled the bowstring sharply, and as soon as he let go, the two sharp arrows shot out, and shot the little leader who rushed over him to the back and fell to the ground.

He had a bow and arrows in his hand, and suddenly the arrows were in the air, and the hunt broke through the air, and every time the bowstring moved, someone fell in response, and even the smoke and the fire could not hinder his vision, but as if he had clairvoyance.

In addition, Qi Dongping and his brothers and sisters are also very fast, the arrows are not missing, often in the other party to shoot an arrow, they have shot five or six arrows, sometimes three arrows at once, two arrows in a row, for a while only to hear the bandits in front of them scream again and again, one after another fell to the ground and died, gradually, Sun Yanling and their side of the army was greatly inspired, and the previous decline was swept away.

Seeing this, Bai Yansong hurriedly ordered the shield hand to protect the spearman and pressed towards the other party.

It's just that the fire is getting bigger and bigger, and if you don't leave this road, I'm afraid that you won't be killed by the other party, but you will be burned to death by the mountain fire.

Fortunately, at this point, the mountain bandits behind have been killed, under the protection of the shield hand, the head car was also pulled out of the pit, Sun Yanling simply asked people to walk against the mountain wall, and the shield hand blocked the flying arrows, he and Qi Dongping, who were good at archery, reflected back in the direction where the arrows came, and every time they heard someone scream, they knew that the opponent's archers had fallen again.

Bai Yansong was knocking the two bandits opposite him to the ground with a spear, when he saw an arrow shoot into the air, drawing an arc in the air, and shooting towards Sun Yanling's back heart, and at that time, the soldiers were dealing with the bandits on the left and right, Sun Yanling was opening his bow and arrows in front of him, and the shield hand beside him had just raised his shield to block a steel spear that stabbed over...... No one could stop the arrow.

"Be careful," Bai Yansong yelled to warn.

The sharp arrow flashed immediately, faster than the electric flint, the arrow was extremely powerful, the head was extremely accurate, with a fierce and murderous roar, Bai Yansong could only watch Sun Yanling hit the arrow, he subconsciously wanted to close his eyes, at this moment, I saw Sun Yanling with the arrow to pounce forward, then, he turned over, the person was still lying on the ground, so he opened his bow and pulled the string to shoot an arrow out, with a scream of "ah", another bandit fell.

Seeing that Sun Yanling's guards around him were protecting him, Bai Yansong used his spear to knock down a few bandits who had killed, rushed over, and asked urgently: "Dutong, how are you?" โ€

Sun Yanling's face was as white as paper, but he hooked his lips and smiled: "It's okay, don't shout like a girl, if they know, it will affect the morale of the army." How's the battle going? You and Dongping discussed that you should fight quickly and rush out quickly, so that the fire will not be too big......"

Before he could finish speaking, he had already fainted.

Bai Yansong lowered his face and said to the soldiers: "Escort the capital to the back of the chariot, and then find the military doctor to take a look, don't let others know, I'll arrange other things......"

When Bai Yansong walked along the back of the convoy and checked the military situation, he saw Tai Bitu, who had previously hid behind the car, arguing with Qi Dongping there: "...... We should take the opportunity to kill all those bandits, leaving only a few leaders, so as to prevent future troubles, and the fighters must not be delayed. 'One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion' Seeing that our side has already won, how can we go? You have to listen to my ......"

"Lord Tai, the capital has given the order to move forward at full speed and leave this place as soon as possible. At this time, many of the soldiers were wounded, rushed through the mountain road in front, and then left people to guard the pass, blocking those bandits, so as to ensure the safe departure of the army, otherwise, I am afraid that the trip will be delayed and the opportunity will be lost......"

"Didn't Du Tong say that it was easy to mess up when he moved? Why did this change of mind again? Tai Bitu snorted coldly and said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I know, he just wants to listen to him for everything, and he can't listen to other people's opinions at all." You send a few more people to protect me and leave first, Sun Dutong is strong in martial arts, so let him cut it off. โ€

"Yes, sir." Because considering that Sun Yanling's injury could not be known to Taibitu at this time, Bai Yansong responded, but his hand sleeve was beside him, clenched into a fist, and his heart was full of anger and grief.

Fortunately, they killed and left, and the government of Guixi received a rumor and sent men and horses to respond, and they actually attacked the bandits inside and out, not only successfully escaped from the sea of fire, but also captured dozens of live mouths......

After counting, not counting those who escaped, the other party died six or seven hundred people, and Sun Yanling also lost more than 300 people, but fortunately, not a single cart of weapons in the military vehicle was lost, only a dozen or so grain trucks were burned, and the grain and grass could be replenished by the Guixi County Ya, which was not a big deal.

It's just that when he arrived in Guixi, Sun Yanling still fell into a coma, according to the military doctor, the arrow almost hit his back in the heart, and he had to have a high fever to go down and recuperate for a few days before he could go on the road, originally they were on the road in advance, that is, to recuperate in Guixi for six or seven days, and it was too late, but Tai Bitu insisted that the general should arrive early in order to receive merit, saying that it was the next journey, there was no danger, and the army of the imperial court was stationed along the way, and he wanted to take those prisoners and hand over the military supplies to Shi Lang's sailors as soon as possible.

Bai Yansong and others argued with him, Sun Yanling didn't wake up, Tai Bitu was the biggest official in their line, everyone had to listen to him, in the end, except for Fugui who led a team of personal soldiers to stay, everyone else followed Qin Bitu to escort the military supplies on the road.

In order to ensure safety, they also transferred some men and horses from Guixi to supplement and help escort them together.

Two days later, Sun Yanling woke up and wanted to wait for the injury to ease up before going on the road, but Guixi received a war report that the men and horses led by Tai Bitu were missing in Taining with military supplies, and the men and horses had lost contact and could not be found.

When Sun Yanling heard the news, he was shocked and asked, "Taining? How did you lose a trace in Tainyeong? Aren't there soldiers and horses from the imperial court stationed there? โ€
