Chapter 537: Raid on the Mines
In July, the weather was hot, but the whole Dasheng people were doing things according to their own ideas, and it seemed that they were not affected by the weather at all. Even Ye Tianyi, who was storing a sword in the sea, was the same.
There is only one person, who was bored by this hot weather, and it was Huang Ke who lost Lin Xiaoer's whereabouts.
There are so many big living people, and if they say they are missing, they will disappear, which makes Huang extremely angry, but he can only pretend to be angry because the demon dragon rider has disappeared.
The golden knife guards went out everywhere, saying that they were looking for the Demon Dragon Rider, however, the deeper purpose was to find Lin Xiaoer.
At this moment, the people he searched for were going around in circles in the mountains of Xiaoqi Mountain in Hexi, not lost, but bypassing the small mining areas.
Since Zhou Zhe went into the wilderness, Hexi was taken over by his relatives, and neither the central government nor the then Hexi political envoy Lu Douya could no longer restrict the entry of capital and the privileged class into Hexi.
Some old, low-yielding and mothballed mining areas were opened again, and the people of Hexi fell into the quagmire abyss again after a few days of good life.
Liu Maosheng watched as the sergeants buried a skeleton, the skeleton of a young man, with an arrow in his back, and slag in the gap between his toes, his identity was undoubtedly a mining slave.
"It's only been a few years. Hou Ye shouldn't have left in the first place. For the first time, Liu Maosheng was skeptical of Zhou Zhe's departure.
The others were silent, but they also understood in their hearts that Dasheng seemed to be going down the old path of the past again, as if the wheels of historical inertia were irresistible.
Liu Dasui took out the map: "There is a mine not far ahead, go around, and we will go to the back of Xiaoqi Mountain." ”
Liu Maosheng nodded, looked at the gray sky, and ordered several centurions beside him: "First take a team of 100 people to the front to explore the way, it is best to find a place to rest, it seems that it is going to rain." ”
"Yes!" a centurion drove forward with several squads.
Rain, which is very bad for the Dragoons, is very bad for them, because the rain will affect their bows and arrows, and it is not conducive to movement, and it is easier to leave traces.
Lin Xiaoer just walked in the team, chewing on the roots, because the supplies were limited, since they left the post station, one more day, the time left for them to attack was a little shorter, and in order to speed up, a lot of supplies were fed to the giant wolf. Only the roots of the tree have a faint sweetness, and they are still chewy.
A flash of thunder streaked across the sky.
"Boom!"
With a thunderclap, the sky began to change. Needless to say, the Dragoons took out bottles from their boxes and greased the bowstrings.
Heavy rain came unexpectedly, and the already moist soil on the mountain became loose under the torrential rain, and the wolf paws were full of mud, which made the forest wolves a little irritable. Fortunately, they have a good IQ and know what they are doing at the moment.
"Boom!" the rain became heavier and heavier.
Just when Liu Maosheng was scolding this ghost weather, a scout sent by the centurion who led the investigation in front of him came to him
"General, the road ahead is already full of stagnant water, and there is mud rolling down, and there may be flash floods. ”
Flash floods and mudslides are both called here. Liu Maosheng's face was blue from the rain, and at this moment, for the first time, they encountered difficulties brought by the weather on the march.
"All of them, find a solid place and wait for dark. ”
"All of them have... ”
It was useless to whisper orders, and one by one the squad leaders shouted and shouted orders.
Liu Dasui walked up to Liu Maosheng and asked, "How to do it?"
Liu Maosheng pulled Liu Dasui over, Li Fei and Shi Yan said: "Let's wait until it gets dark, the mountain trail in front of us can't go, in case the flash flood comes, it will cause unnecessary casualties." You take a few veterans, find a good way to walk, and wait for us to attack head-on, and you will intercept and kill those who escape from the flank. ”
"Understood!" Several people knew Liu Maosheng's plan as soon as they heard it. After listening to the order, Shi Yan shouted, shouted dozens of veterans with good skills and good cooperation, and disappeared into the rain curtain with people.
The heavy rain seemed to be far from stopping, Chen Zui followed the team, and the rain had already made her soaked. The heat of her body made the clothes on her body extremely uncomfortable, and she stuffed a pill into her mouth, it was to prevent cold, she didn't want to delay the demon dragon riders because of herself.
"Put it on your head. ”
Lin Xiaoer didn't know when, he had already woven a big straw hat with the branches and leaves on the side and handed it to Chen Zui.
At this time, Chen Zui realized that the demon dragon riders were full of details, and the net on the helmet was already wrapped around the branches at the moment, and the leaves on it blocked part of the rain, which played a role in draining, so that everyone would not get wet without a hat.
The sky is getting darker, and only when the thunder flashes can you see the black and oppressive human heads outside the lights of the mining area.
It's an iron ore with piles of rocks and ores all over the place, but it's not a good fit for wolves to ride through difficult terrain.
When the demon dragoons finally got a hundred paces closer.
Liu Maosheng waved his hand and shouted: "Kill!"
"Boom!boom!"
The bowstring contracted, the rain splashed, and the keeper of the mine was a family member of a certain family wearing a knockout Dasheng @ style armor, and as soon as he first fought, nearly half of the people who were exposed to the field of vision were killed instantly.
"Who is it?" the garrison in the mining area was not without strong men, and a man wearing the uniform of a monk of an unknown sect shouted out with a sword in his hand.
But this is only the only bright spot in the mining area, those families have already panicked under the first wave of blows, running around, either trying to find a safe place to hide, or trying to escape directly.
After the first wave of blows, the formation quickly spreads out, outflanking the surroundings, this is to leave no dead spots for the blow.
"Whoosh!whoosh!" the arrow shot with great precision.
After unfolding the formation, as long as the body is exposed, it will definitely not survive for three breaths.
The sixth-order powerhouse who shouted before was no longer shouting, he just shouted that sentence, that is, the tree arrow shot directly over, and the battle knife knocked the arrow away with the sword qi, he hid behind the stone, and watched cautiously as the arrows unstoppably pierced the guard's henchmen, and his heart beat wildly.
"Click!" A thunderbolt flashed, and the strong man of the sect saw a comer clearly under this thunder light. The giant wolf under the crotch, the logo on the right chest is the Arrow Breaking Skeleton Dragon.
"Huh? Subconsciously shouted this, and he felt his whole body cold. Subsequently, his strong desire to survive allowed him to burst out to the greatest potential for survival
"Open the fence of the miners and let everyone go with them. ”
This sound made the guards in the mining area stunned, but then they understood the meaning, and quickly opened the fence where the mine slaves were held, and suddenly, the crowd surged.
"Damn. Wei Lan scolded, then scolded, and rushed directly to the boulder with the giant wolf.
"Drink!"
The giant wolf leaped into the air on the boulder, and the sect powerhouse opened his mouth wide and looked at the body of the giant wolf leaping overhead.
Then, he saw the last scene of his life.
Under the thunder light, Wei Lan, who was two meters tall, turned around with a fierce bird in his hand and turned around with an arrow.
He subconsciously picked up the war knife to block.
"Dangchang!"
The arrow rubbed sparks on his sword, and it directly melted the aura attached to his sword, and then, the blade of the knife sank into his chest.
"Phew!" the corpse fell.
Liu Maosheng accelerated forward, and at this moment the mining area was already in chaos, with thousands of guards and mine slaves mixed together, and the sky was extremely dark and unrecognizable.
Liu Maosheng's face twitched, and he turned his head to Lin Xiaoer and said
"Stop them, mine slaves or garrisons, transgressors. Kill!"
"But?" Chen Zui was a little entangled, the mine slaves were oppressed people.
Liu Maosheng said: "I have no choice. ”
Lin Xiaoer had already ridden the black giant wolf to the exit of the mining area at this moment.
"Whew!" roared the wolf. Lin Xiaomao immediately roared above Lin Xiaoer's head.
Looking at Lin Xiaoer, who was holding a chain in front of him and dripping rain, and the giant wolf with a bloody mouth, many people were terrified.
One of the guards knew that this might be the best chance, and he had just raised his sword before he could shout
"Whoosh!" an arrow pierced his throat, and Wei Lan rode the giant wolf and stood on the other side.
"Runaways. Die. Lin Xiaoer said this sentence without emotion, making the mining area completely change from noisy to silent.
Liu Maosheng glanced at the people who fled from the mountain trail, and without saying a word, someone would clean it up there.
"What should I do with so many people?" Chen Zui was a little worried, for fear that Liu Maosheng would be ruthless.
"Wei Lan! Let the miners report, guard everything, pull it out, and leave no one behind. Liu Maosheng didn't disappoint Chen Zui, and directly gave Wei Lan an order.
The corners of Wei Lan's mouth raised a smile that should have been like this, and he began to lead people to search for the guards hiding in the crowd.
"Him. ”
"He's too. . . ”
"And him... ”
The voices of accusations kept coming from the crowd, and it was even more fateful. From the common people, to the oppressed people who have lost their personal freedom, the mining slaves finally broke out at this moment.
There were even some people who directly smashed the heads of the garrison with stones on the ground.
It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that it settled down.
At this moment, Shi Yan, Li Fei and Liu Dasui have returned. The others were left behind by them to serve as outposts.
"Didn't you run out of one?" asked Liu Maosheng.
Shi Yan nodded, but his expression seemed a little frustrated. Liu Maosheng asked, "Stone, what's wrong?"
Liu Dasui spoke at this moment: "There were a few miners who also ran over and were shot by me. At that distance, if I don't do anything, he's going to escape. ”
Wei Lan heard it, and looked at Liu Dasui with unkind eyes: "That's a civilian." ”
"I know. ”
Wei Lan showed no weakness: "Do you know that you still do that?"
Liu Dasui snorted coldly: "Do you think that if he runs out, he will have a way to live? There is a military camp in Xiaoqishan outside the mountain pass, and they have been caught, do you think those Xun relatives will let him go? And when the time comes, our position will be exposed, how many people have thought about dying?"
Wei Lan is a female man, and she was born with the education of the glorious mission of the Demon Dragon Rider, although it was a little difficult to accept, but she still whispered: "I'm sorry." ”
Liu Maosheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Okay, okay! Let the miners clean up the battlefield, Shi Yan, don't stink, Liu Dasui didn't do anything wrong." Let's repair for a while, and before dawn tomorrow, attack Xiaoqi Mountain. Tell the brothers to prepare. ”
Shi Yan returned to his spirit: "Understood." ”
