Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Slinger and the Trap Crossbow
Yang Yu and Shi San were hiding behind the rocks near the cliff and were observing the battle on the hillside, which was quite far away from the battlefield on the middle hillside, and belonged to a position far away from the battlefield.
In fact, it was not only him, but Yang Yu beside him also sensed that something was wrong, at first he thought that it was an ambush laid by the group of people who sneaked up on the convoy here, in that case, it would be very troublesome, they were originally unrelated people, Yang Yu didn't want to get involved in this killing at all.
After he turned around, he saw that Shi San had already turned into the pile of rocks, Yang Yu was afraid that something would happen to Shi San, so he immediately chased after him!
When Yang Yu caught up with Shi San, he found that Shi San had already caught two people, but they were two girls, one of them was a little girl who was at most eleven or twelve years old, and the other was a little older, and it seemed that she was about the same age as Yang Yu!
Now the two little girls all looked at Shi San with big frightened eyes, and Shi San had a gloomy face! The sharp wooden pole in his hand was aimed at the two little girls! The older girl was trembling all over at this time! Faintly protecting the young girl behind her, her delicate little face was whitened at this time.
The little girl behind her, with two buns on her head, although her face was also pale, but a pair of smart big eyes were turning in her bones, she didn't seem to be afraid, but she was very interested in the black-faced kid in front of her.
Yang Yu jumped down from the stone and stepped forward to ask, "Who are you?"
Shi San moved to the side, and the position where the two of them were standing suddenly completely blocked the retreat of the two little girls, which was the cooperation method he and Yang Yu had cultivated in their hunting careers for several years.
"They're irrelevant people in the convoy!They're afraid of being hurt by the arrows, so they hid here early!" A voice suddenly appeared, followed by a dark shadow suddenly jumping down from behind, protecting the two girls behind them.
Yang Yu's eyes lit up, at this time it was the Chang Long who came over with Jia Xing last night to beg for mutton, this person's eyes were sharp, and there was also a layer of martial arts cultivation on his body, in Yang Yu's eyes, this Chang Long should be regarded as a master among the team guards.
After Chang Long jumped down, he was carrying a machete in his hand, and he was also very wary of Yang Yu and Shi San, there were obvious loopholes in his words, the convoy was attacked, how could it be that irrelevant people were arranged to hide here, and the nobles they tried their best to protect were left on the hillside!
Yang Yu is not stupid, he has already heard that something is not quite right from this, and after thinking about it carefully, he immediately understands that the so-called "nobles" in the convoy are obviously these two little girls, and what is left on the hillside is nothing more than a cover to attract enemy attackers!
In the convoy, at the expense of everyone, but also to protect the two little "nobles" in front of them, these two little girls are obviously not ordinary people.
"Miss, are you alright?" Chang Long asked the older girl behind him.
The girl seemed to find that Yang Yu and Shi San were not like the people who came to intercept and kill, in addition to the fact that the two were not very old, their clothes and appearances were also very similar, so they gradually returned to normal, and under the turn of their eyebrows, a condescending temperament exuded!
She let out a soft "um" in her nose, then reached out and grabbed the girl next to her, ready to turn away, but at this time she heard a burst of angry roars from the direction of the hillside!
At this moment, the five people present were immediately attracted by the battle on the hillside, and they all looked for the direction to watch! Unconsciously, Chang Long deliberately was next to Yang Yu and Shi San, as if he was spying! But Yang Yu and Shi San did not notice this change.
The battle on the hillside did change, for it was about to get dark, and the men in black had apparently been given some order to take down the wagons on the hillside before it got dark.
After several temptations and feints, the crossbow arrows in the defensive circle on the hillside were really insufficient, and there could no longer be a rain of arrows, so the official attack in the camp of the men in black began.
The black-clothed man below the hillside didn't dare to rush too violently, although the other party's arrow rain could not shoot, but there were several people who shot very accurately with arrows, and if they raised too much, they would easily become targets! But these people were now covering a few strong men, and someone was responsible for blocking and dropping the arrows that were shot at the strong men.
Those strong men were extremely burly, more than two people tall, their upper bodies were naked~, revealing the bronze muscles on their bodies, and each strong man was dragging a car behind them, walking slowly, and it seemed that there were extremely heavy things on the car.
When there were still dozens of feet away from the hillside, those strong men stopped, turned around and lifted the contents of the car, they were not in a hurry to leave quickly, in order to preserve their strength!
These strong men are all famous wrestlers in some border armies, many of them have the blood of barbarian slaves, and their strength is infinite, and after turning the big stone in their hands twice, they threw it violently towards the hillside!
"Woo woo ......!" The boulder made a piercing sound in the air, and the momentum was amazing, and it fell into the defensive circle in the hillside, and immediately flesh and blood flew sideways, and a large stone smashed on the wheel of a carriage, and suddenly "click!" The carriage was destroyed and the wheel broke! Although only two large stones were thrown up the hill in this way and hit the target, they immediately caused considerable damage to the defense circle.
At this moment, in the defensive position above, someone took off some things from the back of the carriage and quickly assembled them, and then quickly moved the carriage to open the front, and the thick arrow shafts with sharp fronts were exposed, aiming at the strong men below.
The strong men were moving the stones to prepare for the second wave of stone attacks, but at this time, there was a "boom, boom, ......!boom" sound from the top of the hillside, and black light shot down one after another! The tall strong man happened to be the best target, and the black-clothed people standing next to him jumped up and stretched out their weapons to block the incoming objects!
But then these men in black suddenly broke their bones and tendons, and even their swords were broken, obviously that thing was extremely powerful, and the sound of "poof......puff!" burrowed into the strong man's body, and blood splattered instantly!
Several strong men were all hit by the arrows, and the thick shafts of the arrows seemed to be fired using the crossbow arm of the mechanism, and the kinetic energy was enormous! The lethality was astonishing! Several strong men were crucified to the ground at that time! The wounded men let out earth-shattering screams, but soon there was no sound under the sound of "boom ......" and "puff ......!" again.
"It seems that they are going to withdraw! This wave is defeated, and the sky will be dark immediately!" Yang Yu said to Shi San next to him.
"There are still people in the woods, I'm afraid it's going to be a night attack!" Shi San said.
"It seems that it is difficult to hold on to the hillside!" Yang Yu said.
"Do you want to help?" Shi San asked.
Yang Yu glanced at Chang Long, who was also watching the battle, and said, "Look again!"
