·······························

The night was shrouded and the stars were dim.

More than ten miles away from the north city gate, there was a dark silence in Happy Valley.

Suddenly, a group of hidden black shadows, like a gray tide, rushed from a distance and surged silently to the Happy Valley.

At the front of the black shadow, a slender figure suddenly stopped, raised his right arm high, and suddenly, in the dark night sky, there was a slight sound of flapping wings, and a moment later, a huge bat with its wings spread out about four meters was extremely strange in the sky above him, slowly circling.

Seeing this scene, in an instant, the two thousand shadow dead soldiers who followed closely behind all stopped their bodies and stood silently in place.

As soon as they stopped moving, soon, the robes that shrouded them began to change, and in the blink of an eye, they merged with the nearby mountain forest ground, merging into the same hidden color, if they did not stand in front of them and observe carefully, it would be difficult to detect that there was a group of people standing silently up and down this slope.

Gro stood on the hillside, his slender figure shrouded in a black close-fitting robe, and since his face was also hidden behind the black robe, except for the pair of shining eyes, which flickered in the darkness, so that outsiders could not see his face at all.

The two thousand Shadow Dead behind him were all the elites of Dayue selected by Bato from the tribe.

Each of them wore a "hidden dragon robe", an ink-colored scimitar on their waists, and a "silver frog poison arrow" tied to the wrists of their left and right hands, and at the same time, in their mouths, there was also a "poppy pill".

As long as they have the "poppy elixir" in their mouths, they can increase their strength several times, and they are tireless, do not know pain, and do not know what death is.

This time, Gro led two thousand dead soldiers to quietly go around the city, just to block the retreat of the gang of Han dogs, and cooperate with General Bato stationed in the city to attack inside and outside to exterminate all the Han dogs who came to attack.

The Han dogs who came to attack Yangzhou this time seemed to have an unknown origin, and what surprised the Dayue generals of Geluo was that the army of these Han dogs had a large number of mysterious firearms.

The firearms of those Han dogs are extremely powerful and fierce.

Some time ago, the 10,000 tribal warriors stationed on the north bank of the Yuan River, under the mysterious firearms of the Han dogs, suffered heavy casualties and almost wiped out their entire army.

Knowing that this group of hateful Han dogs, after capturing Linjiang, they came to attack Yangzhou City, as the general of the army in the north and south of Annan, Bato, a few days ago, constantly from the surrounding states and counties, a large number of soldiers and horses were drawn to strengthen the defense.

Especially tonight.

Before Gro led the two thousand Shadow Dead out of the city, Barto gave them a death order. "Tonight, you will do whatever it takes, even if you all die in battle, you will make Hangou pay the price of blood!"

Thinking of this, Gro's eyes were full of cold light.

That's right, the two thousand shadow dead soldiers have already made up their minds to die in battle, and when the time comes, they will definitely make those greedy and afraid of death frightened!

The Dayue warriors have never been afraid of Han dogs.

All along, it was the Han dog who saw them and was frightened, hugging his head and running away.

Tonight, even if the opponent is a group of Han dogs with mysterious firearms, they will still be killed by the two thousand shadow dead soldiers led by themselves, hum! ……

Gro slowly turned his body and looked sharply at the two thousand shadow dead men who were following behind him, revealing a hint of arrogance.

At this moment, the two thousand shadow dead soldiers, all of them had cold expressions and resolute eyes.

Although they were all shrouded in invisible black robes, they couldn't hide the ruthless aura emanating from their bodies.

Gro nodded in satisfaction, his eyes full of fanaticism and anticipation for the impending bloodthirsty killing.

Twenty years, twenty years!

During this period, there has never been any Han dog army that can make them send so many shadow dead soldiers from Dayue, the only time was more than 20 years ago, the Han dog general of Annan County, led an army of 100,000 Han dogs, went to the Mehe River to invade the border, as a result, the 100,000 Han dog army, in the jungle, was killed by their 3,000 shadow dead soldiers, lost their armor, and had no power to fight back.

Han Dog has dozens of times more troops than his own, and he can't win, he can only lose.

For tonight's night attack, Gro was full of confidence.

Suddenly, in the pitch-black wilderness ahead, there was a sound of extremely fast running.

The voice was light and fast, but it couldn't escape Gro's piercing eyes.

Under Gro's gaze, a thin black shadow swept towards the top of the slope in an instant, and landed lightly in front of him. "I've seen Gro-sama!"

Gro stared at him coldly and said, "Have you found out?" ”

The thin black shadow nodded, and said in a deep voice: "According to the information obtained by the subordinates, those Han dogs have begun to send people in to break the formation, but ...... But ......"

"But what?"

Gro's face turned gloomy, and his eyes stared at him like lightning, "Could it be that they broke the formation?" ”

The thin black shadow shook his head and said in a low voice: "Just now, those Han dogs, I don't know what kind of powerful firearms they used, actually bombed the Beicheng defense into ruins, Ba ...... General Barto was also killed on the spot. ”

Hearing this, Ge Luo suddenly lowered his head and became silent, his eyes were gloomy and a little terrifying, and the Dayue secret agent who was squatting in front of him didn't dare to look up at him at all.

After being silent for a while, Gro suddenly raised his head, looked at the direction of Beichengfang with red eyes, gritted his teeth tightly, and said word by word: "Pass the order, we will fight with that Han dog tonight, if we don't kill these Han dogs, it will be difficult to eliminate the shame of our Dayue tribe!" ”

"Tonight, we will avenge General Barto and kill !!"

At the sound of an order, two thousand dead soldiers, with an incomparably cold murderous aura flashing in their eyes, rushed over the hillside with incomparably ferocious ferocity, and attacked the wilderness in front of them with murderous aura.

Because of the cotton pads strapped under their feet, they were light and silent as they charged.

From a distance, it looks like a group of predatory wild cats, rushing straight to the north city defense with great speed.

Gro, who rushed to the front of the team, stepped on a huge bat at some point, slowly soared into the air, and flew straight into the air in front of him......

…………

The leader of the Nie League rode on the horse with a happy face, and Zhao Hu held the reins in front of him.

Near the war horse of the Nie Alliance Lord, dozens of dragon and tiger elites, holding various weapons and firearms, were closely guarding the war horse.

Among these guards, there are seven snipers armed with thermal imaging scopes, and Li Yan is one of these seven snipers.

Li Yan was born a cripple, since he followed his father into Heifeng Village at the age of six, he has been staying in the house to chop wood and make fires, and be an ordinary minions who can't be ordinary minions.

Because he was born with a disability, he couldn't practice martial arts, and he didn't have the talent to learn literature, so he could only follow his father, nesting in a dirty and dark room day and night, and always had to endure the contempt and cold eyes of others, just trying to survive for a bite of food.

Sometimes, Li Yan always asks his father, why did he choose to be a bandit who was not popular and disgraced his ancestors?

His father told him that because he had nowhere to go, because he had nothing to eat, he had to be a bandit.

His father's answer made Li Yan very helpless and sad, so he was always very decadent and desperate to wonder if he could only accompany his father like this in his life, hide in this dirty and dark house, and spend his whole life in a nest.

Because, he is a cripple, and his father is also a cripple.

If the two cripples want to survive, except for being a little minion in the house of Heifeng Village, they can't survive in other places, because they can't read, don't know martial arts, and have no skills, so their future is destined to be gloomy, and their lives are destined to be miserable.

The bandits are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and they belong to the lowest and most unpopular kind.

Once in the Black Wind Village, Li Yan secretly heard many times that someone was mocking their father and son behind their backs, saying that the father and son stayed in the cottage, and there was no other contribution except for consuming the food of the cottage like moths.

At that time, Li Yan hid in the corner and didn't dare to say anything, he didn't dare to show his head, he was afraid to see the eyes of others when they despised them, even if there was pity in his eyes, he didn't want to.

Originally, if nothing else, the fate of their father and son was basically spent in the dirty house in the contemptuous eyes of countless people.

However, he never expected that the careless words of the Nie League Lord would completely change his fate.

Li Yan clearly remembers that on that day, the three brothers of the Chen family set up a sniper team to select a group of talented shooters from the cottage to train and standby, and on that day, he made the bravest decision since he was born, he wanted to participate in the selection of snipers.

At that time, everyone, including the three brothers of the Chen family, was disdainful of him as a cripple and refused to give him a chance at all, and just when he was in extreme despair and depression, he happened to meet the Nie League Master passing by from there to inspect.

The leader of the Nie League asked Chen Shou, "Why don't you hurry up and train and laugh and make noise around a guy?" ”

Chen Shou said with a smile: "The little cripple who chops wood in the room wants to participate in the selection of snipers, but his physical condition is not good, so he can't pass the test." ”

The leader of the Nie League glanced at him and said lightly: "What's wrong with the cripple, the cripple can't have dreams?" If people don't have dreams, what is the difference between being alive and being a salted fish? ……”

In this way, Li Yan got this precious opportunity to change his fate.

After participating in the sniper training, he cherished this opportunity very much, so in the process of training, he put in countless times the effort and effort of others, and the training process was also countless times more difficult and hard than others.

Because, he's a cripple.

For a cripple to become a qualified sniper, he is inherently destined to be harder and more painful than being subjected.

Fortunately, he finally passed all the training.

Although his achievements are not the best among all snipers, his vigilance and keen observation skills are unmatched by anyone.

Tonight, the leader of the Nie League led everyone to successfully break the eye of the big array, and summoned the immortal artifact to break through the northern city defense of Yangzhou City, so that all the Dayue soldiers stationed on the city defense fled the city defense.

Everything went so smoothly and everything fell into place.

At this moment, the morale of the big guys was high, the fighting spirit was high, and everyone rushed towards the city gate with the most swift and fierce attitude.

Everyone thought that the Da Yue people stationed in the city were frightened by the alliance leader's immortal firearms, scared away, and fled, completely vulnerable.

Everyone's vigilance is completely absent, and even if there is vigilance and defense, they are all focused on the enemy who has fled into the city, and no one will put too much mind on the outside of the city, or behind the back.

But Li Yan is different from everyone, since he received Chen Shou's order to ask them, the seven snipers, to be responsible for guarding the safety of the alliance leader.

As soon as they arrived at the alliance leader's side, they were full of ammunition and surveyed the neighborhood, and they were no exception.

Compared with the other six snipers, they used the scope to look behind them a few times, and after feeling that there was no abnormality, they no longer put their minds behind their backs, because, behind the scenes, the master of the hall had already arranged dozens of hidden stakes, which were distributed in the fields behind them, just to watch the wind and warn.

Until now, the wilderness behind was as silent as ever, and there must have been no accidents.

So, everyone surrounded the Nie League Master and walked towards the city gate in front of them happily.

At this time, they were still more than three miles away from the north city gate, and the heavy machine gun group, grenadier battle group, and bazooka battle group at the front of the team, all of which were more than 1,000 elite arms, poured into the city gate in an endless stream, and the remaining more than 2,000 dragon and tiger troops armed with cold weapons also followed closely behind and quickly boarded the drawbridge.

Although Li Yan is a cripple, in fact, his speed is not slow, on the contrary, once it erupts, it is very fast.

At this moment, he was alone with a WAM sniper rifle, carefully hanging behind the back of the horse.

Unlike other snipers, he always held up the sniper rifle in his hand, kept his eyes in front of the thermal imaging scope, and was ready to shoot anytime and anywhere.

Basically, every three steps, he would use the thermal imaging scope on the gun to look around, backward, backward, left and right, before he would stop, even the sky above his head, he refused to let go.

Because, the Nie Alliance Master once said to them that the enemy often appears when the prey relaxes its vigilance the most, as a qualified sniper, don't ignore any possibility. There are many times when enemies will come out of places you think are impossible and deliver a fatal blow. And the price you pay is your life.

For the warning of the Nie League Master during the training, did the other snipers really take it to heart? Li Yan didn't know.

But he remembered every word that the Nie League Master had said in his heart like a holy scripture, and recited it in his heart all the time, and then kept reminding himself that he must not forget his negligence.

Everyone escorted the Nie Alliance Lord on horseback and walked nearly three hundred steps forward.

At a distance of 300 meters, the other six snipers only looked back with thermal imaging scopes thirteen times, but none of them looked up at the night sky overhead.

And Li Yan has always been the most cautious and vigilant combat mentality, every time he takes three steps, he observes everywhere, and in just three hundred steps, he observes no less than a hundred times.

Soon, everyone escorted the Nie Alliance Master into the broken array.

Just two miles ahead, you can climb the suspension bridge and enter the north gate.

At this time, Li Yan turned the muzzle of the gun to the left without the slightest relaxation, "No abnormality!" ”

On the right, "No anomalies!" ”

Rear, "No anomalies, wait......"

Suddenly, Li Yan passed through the thermal imaging scope in his hand, and he was surprised to find that above the distant horizon behind him, there were actually more than a dozen red points of light that shimmered with a faint light.

The points of light were moving very fast, and they were approaching the city gate with great speed.

Due to the distance, and the thermal imaging scope on the gun, it can easily find any living target thousands of kilometers away, including animals, and of course, some large homeothermic animals.

Cold-blooded animals like snakes or crocodiles, it can't be found.

At this moment, Li Yan's brows were furrowed.

Because of the distance, he couldn't tell what the targets were.

Because, on this vast wilderness, there are a large number of wild dogs, wild cats, rats, hares and other animals, and he has just found a lot of them.

Fortunately, there are only a dozen target red dots found, and if the number is a little more and more concentrated, it will definitely be more abnormal.

Since the target on the horizon is too far away, Li Yan continued to look up towards the night sky, he was going to wait until he finished observing the night sky, and then continue to observe the targets on the horizon behind, and when they were a little closer and could see the shape and outline, he would be able to judge what they were.

However, Li Yan's heart has begun to be a little vigilant.

Because when he was just sniping those stealth assassins hiding in the city protection array, he had already found that the color of the person's body temperature in the thermal imaging scope seemed to be lighter than those of those wild cats and wild dogs, and what was going on, the Nie Alliance Master didn't say too clearly just now.

Anyway, the color of the dozen or so light clusters that Li Yan had just discovered seemed to be relatively dim.

In a word, heighten your vigilance.

Quickly turning the muzzle of the gun, Li Yan slowly patrolled towards the night sky and observed.

Suddenly, directly in front of him, a huge red ball of light and shadow flew by like a bolt of lightning, and the speed was comparable to lightning.

Seeing this scene, Li Yan's face changed, and he hurriedly stepped back, quickly moved the muzzle of the gun, and searched for the huge red shadow light that had just passed from his line of sight.

This time, the target that was flying quickly in the air was finally captured by him.

It was a bird with huge wings...... Well, no, it is impossible for a bird to have such wide wings? Hey? Why is there still a person standing on it? ……

Then he quickly dragged the scope down, and above the horizon in the distance, a large dense spot of light appeared.

Seeing this scene, Li Yan's face suddenly changed drastically, and he warned loudly: "It's abnormal five hundred steps away in the air!" There is an anomaly a thousand paces away! ……”
