Night 7: Thirteen Days of Death (2)

Night 7: Thirteen Days of Death (2)

After another half an hour, the dream people finally came to the bandit camp that had become a ruin, because most of the war horses were not loaded, and the dream people chose stronger ones to ride, so although the people were sleepy and the horses were tired, they finally did not let the pursuers behind them approach further.

Huang Zhi looked at Zhang Wei without saying a word, and his brother immediately understood the meaning and took over the responsibility of command, "Since Shixin has decided to keep the cavalry battalion, then we must do our job more decently." Xiaofeng, you continue to advance with the horse team, and after passing this camp, turn southeast, trying to lure the pursuers farther away. โ€

"What about you?" Xiaofeng is not afraid to go it alone, but her curiosity is overflowing, wanting to know the tasks of her teammates.

Zhang Wei had a bloodthirsty smile on his face that he hadn't seen for a long time, "Let's just stay here and collect some interest, so that the officers and soldiers know that the person in the dream is not so easy to deal with." โ€

Xiaofeng was very puzzled when he heard this, "If you show up here, how can the officials and soldiers chase me?" โ€

Xiaofeng's question was not unreasonable, but Zhang Wei didn't have time to explain to him at the moment, "You hurry up, we are waiting for you in another bandit camp near Northeast Village, see you soon." โ€

The Northeast Bandit Camp is also another meeting place agreed by Huang Zhi and Du Ziteng, and it is also not far from the Jiulong River, which can be found by crossing the river to the west bank at a little upstream location. The reason why Xiaofeng led the horse team was entirely because he had the fastest foot in the team, otherwise Zhang Wei would not be willing to disperse the team in such a dangerous period.

Xiao Feng took a step ahead with a stomach full of doubts, and when the sound of his horse's hooves had just disappeared, the officers and soldiers in the rear came immediately.

Zhang Wei was naturally not stupid enough to block the cavalry's charge with the flesh of his teammates, and immediately issued a combat order, "Let's go to the jungle in the west to ambush, wait and listen to my orders, and use long-range attacks." โ€

Huang Zhi immediately understood Zhang Wei's intentions, this was a plan to ambush the pursuing soldiers with a small force of long-range troops, so that the generals of the Lizhou Army were more convinced that the horse team in front was where the Eastern Navy and the dream man were. Although this strategy will eventually be caused by the officers and soldiers catching up with the unridden horses, it is nothing more than the best way to delay the enemy's footsteps in a short time.

Without further ado, the dream of the Tokai team immediately burrowed into the mountains and forests to the west of the bandit camp and changed their bows and crossbows. Although after Xiaofeng temporarily left the team, there were only eight dream people left, but there were quite a few who mastered the "archery" skill.

Huang Zhi's single-handed "scattering arrow" technique, one person can use it for five people, and it has always been the long-range firepower output point of the East China Sea team. As long as his arm strength is further improved and he understands the skills of "supersonic arrow" as soon as possible, he will be promoted to the A rank just around the corner, and even if Zhang Wei faces him, he will be stunned.

In addition, Sima Fuqiang and Li Sha have also mastered the "archery technique" of the D rank, although their power is not as good as Huang Zhi, they are also much stronger than ordinary soldiers. and Zhang Wei is also a half-hung archer, he didn't deliberately learn skills, but after all, he was born as a special soldier, and his ability to master all kinds of hot and cold weapons is stronger than that of ordinary people, and he is decent to use a bow and crossbow to fight.

Just these four people shot together, it was enough to form a small area of coverage shooting, not to mention that the waning moon with "brute force" also joined the ranks of long-range attackers at Huang Zhi's request, becoming a brute force bow that frightened people in their dreams.

Although he only preliminarily mastered the skills of the E rank, he used a military-standard foot crossbow as a hard bow after removing the handle and crossbow machine, and its power directly chased the "supersonic arrow" of Huang Zhong, the arrow god of the Three Kingdoms, just because the design idea of the foot crossbow was to strengthen the range rather than the muzzle velocity of the arrow, which was slightly insufficient in comparison.

Although due to the low skill rank, the accuracy in Shanghai is slightly insufficient, and it cannot play a role against the people in the dream or the high-level generals, the long-range ability of the waning moon still jumped to the second in the East China Sea team, and it is even more deterrent than Huang Zhi against ordinary soldiers. With a single arrow, he can often pierce more than two people, and his lethality has almost reached the level of a cuรกng crossbow.

Just after all the members of the Donghai team hid in the mountain forest, the vanguard of the state army had already arrived at the bandit camp, and the mountain road was already at the end of here, and there was only an endless deep mountain forest in front of it. The captain, one of the leading officers and soldiers, dismounted, carefully examined the horses' hoof prints on the ground to determine the direction in which the horses were heading.

Just as he was about to get up from his exploration, a powerful arrow flew out of the mountains and forests to the west, piercing his neck with precision, bringing out a rain of blood.

This sudden attack made the soldiers of the Lizhou Army who were still waiting for his orders fall into a state of stupor, mainly because the accuracy of an arrow through the throat was too shocking. Among the 50,000 people in the 10th army from the state capital, there are also a few good archers, but no one has such strength and accuracy.

With Huang Zhi's arrow as an instruction, even Huang Ying, Wuyang and Xiao Qi, who had no skills, each had a crossbow, and at the same time tilted the arrow towards the crowded place of the officials and soldiers, taking away several lives in an instant.

At this time, I don't know who shouted, and the officers and soldiers of "there is an ambush" woke up from their stunned state, but in the blink of an eye, they fell into a panic.

The number of this pursuer was about 1,000 men in two battalions, and there were four captains in the lead, including the principal and deputy, and after deducting the one who was shot and killed as soon as he appeared on the scene, Huang Zhi found another target in the second round of shooting, and accurately took the opponent's life again with an arrow through the throat.

At the same time, the other teammates continued to fire arrows at the officers and soldiers with their bows and crossbows without stopping, and in the blink of an eye, nearly twenty people had been put down, making the scene even more chaotic. Some were frightened and wanted to turn back, others were panicked to find cover, and experienced veterans were hunched down and reduced their aim.

"Don't attack from the west, the terrain is not suitable for cavalry walking, and the enemy's large army cannot pass through there, so there must be only a small number of men and horses, Zhang Yuan, you lead the team to dismount and deal with them, and the rest of the people continue to advance" shouted Another captain who rode his horse and stood under the battalion flag, it could be seen that this person had a clear mind and should be the commander of the vanguard team.

Originally, the night was dark, and even if there were torches, it was difficult to find the rest of the commanders in the midst of the chaos. At this time, Huang Zhi heard the voice, followed the reputation, and finally found this person, and was no longer polite at the moment, bending his bow and arrows to take the target.

Who knew that the captain was actually an experienced veteran, his eyes were staring at the mountains and forests to the west, and when he saw an arrow flying towards him quickly, he immediately raised the cavalry shield prepared at his hand and blocked Huang Zhi's arrow.
