Chapter Eighty-Three: Kite Flying
That night, someone came to the horse thief's temporary command tent.
The identity of the person who came is mysterious, and it is also the existence of Shang Yin in the portrait who hired them to kill them.
"There is a caravan of tens of thousands of people, which is passing towards Liao at the fastest speed, according to intelligence, the man in the painting is likely to be in the caravan, he is in a carriage and horse. ”
Shang Yin's whereabouts have always been watched by the Queen Mother's people.
"This time we have lost too much, how can we not kill some people to vent our hatred?"
"It seems that this Hongwu army and the Longquan New Army are very likely to come to attract our attention, pass my order, slaughter all this 10,000-person caravan for me, snatch back all their goods, recover some losses, cut off everyone's heads for me, the Longquan New Army has retreated, and the other horses will be suppressed by the Hongwu Army. "Among the thirteen thieves, ranked thirteenth, the leader of the two-star immortal realm, Lai Peng gave an order, even if there was no man in the painting, he would do it.
He knew very well that people who did not have an immortal body realm on the other side were not good at making a move, and those who could make people offer a reward of hundreds of thousands of top-grade spirit jade must have an extraordinary identity.
But if it's the thieves who kill each other, then there's no problem.
"Yes!" At one time, the two dens, with a total of 60,000 horse thieves, rushed in the direction where the caravan was.
The entire caravan knew nothing about this.
Shang Yin cultivated for two days, adjusted himself to the best state, walked out of the carriage, looked at the Spirit Body Realm powerhouse on the side, and said: "Everyone should be careful, it is very likely that the Hongwu Army and the Longquan New Army will not be able to attract horse thieves from today, and it is recommended that all armed forces gather together and be ready to snipe at the enemy at any time." ”
"Little brother, who are you?" someone asked on the spot, because looking at Shang Yin's carriage, he knew that his identity was unusual.
On the first day, he let everyone go full speed, but both days were unharmed.
At the time, no one knew his identity, and now everyone has to be mobilized to fight the horse thieves, and some people don't want to pay attention to him.
"I am Shang Yin, the only grandson of Shang Tianzheng, and I came with the Hongwu Army and the Longquan New Army, this time I am hidden in the caravan, hoping to help everyone get through this difficulty, in case of loss. Shang Yin said solemnly.
"What, the only grandson of the old immortal master Shang Tianzheng?"
"Yes, I also heard that this time it was the three of them who won the top three in the spring hunt and came to conquer the horse thieves in Moxikou. ”
"It turned out to be a little immortal master, no wonder there was a carriage of this level. ”
Many people present suddenly felt a sense of security in their hearts, because the only grandson of the old immortal master was in the caravan.
Shang Yin held a map in his hand, according to the marching routes of several dens.
I am afraid that at this moment, the reinforcements of the horse thieves are all gathered in the place where the Hongwu army and the Longquan new army are located, but once they can't contain it, these horse thieves will come back, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Because the caravan had goods, the speed of movement naturally could not catch up with the overnight attack of horse thieves.
The caravans were tens of thousands, and it was hard not to be spotted.
This way west, Shang Yin judged according to the route of the march, and it was very likely that the horse thieves would attack from the rear next.
"Along the way, don't rest, hurry overnight, do a good job of day and night, and the rest of the people who have arrived at the spirit realm will be in the rear with me, ready to snipe the enemy at any time. Shang Yin always felt that it was still very dangerous now, so he drove the carriage out of the caravan and said solemnly: "Leave some warriors behind as a response, who else is willing to accompany me to break the queen?"
"Cut, is it that serious?"
"Although you are the only grandson of the old immortal master, the prince of the family led the elite of the eight thousand Longquan new army, and he will definitely be able to kill the horse thieves. ”
"Yes, he has promised us that we can get out of the city in peace. ”
Shang Yin saw that there was opposition in the crowd, but he didn't think so, and said in a deep voice: "If the prince can really kill those horse thieves, it will naturally be a good thing, and everyone will not be in any danger, who dares to stop the enemy with me?"
"Me!"
"I ......"
"That's right, if the prince can really defeat the horse thief, naturally no one will chase us, what is there to be afraid of? Some people just want to make excuses for their weakness. A middle-aged man who has been walking on this road all year round knows that Shang Yin's worries are not unreasonable.
In the crowd, the voices of a traveling merchant warrior with experience in the spirit body realm sounded one after another, and they wanted to fight side by side with the only grandson of the legendary old immortal master.
Despite this, there are still many people who are unwilling.
Because these horse thieves are so vicious, if they are cut off, they are likely to give their lives here.
As the guards of some traveling merchants, they also came out to eat together, and no one was willing to put their lives on the line until they had no choice but to do so.
Shang Yin also knows very well that it is not possible to force people, this is all voluntary.
There are less than 3,000 people who are willing to accompany him down to break the queen, but he knows very well that these people are experienced, have been walking on this road all year round, and are very familiar with the terrain.
If the caravan took the main official road, which ran through the Liao Kingdom, if they broke away from this route, their speed would slow down a lot, because the road would become more difficult, and there would even be many obstacles, and tens of thousands of traveling merchant teams would be very easy to spot.
"Master Shang, what do you command, just say it bluntly. "Some of these people are from the Liao country, and some are from the Xia country.
There is no doubt that the reason why they accompanied Shang Yin to break off together was because they wanted to protect their caravan, and at the same time, they also trusted and respected the old immortal master, and believed in Shang Yin's judgment.
"Those who have siblings in the family come out first. Shang Yin said.
"Little Immortal Master, why is this?" a middle-aged man asked with a smile.
"Because we might die. Shang Yin said calmly: "If you have brothers and sisters in the family, you can take care of the old and the young, and those who don't have it can be held back." "Shang Yin knows that he is not afraid of 10,000, he is afraid of what happens.
"Haha, don't worry, little immortal master, most of our families have brothers and sisters, so they will come out to do such a knife life business, otherwise if we die, old father and mother, who will take care of us?" Immediately, there was a man with gray sideburns and a bright smile.
"Okay, I hope I can lead everyone to a winning battle. "Shang Yin doesn't know if the horse thieves will come, but if you are prepared, you are always prepared.
With two days and two nights of marching, those horse thieves could catch up in more than a day as long as they followed the main official road.
"We are willing to fight the horse thieves to the death. ”
These days, they also have a breath of anger in their hearts, because the methods of the horse thieves make them feel very aggrieved and angry, and some of the beheaded people know them.
"Okay, then everyone will listen to my orders, if there is no enemy, it is best, if there is an enemy, you must be ready to snipe with all your might. ”
Shang Yin knew that his pupil technique had a unique advantage, according to the route on the map in his hand, as long as the horse thieves found that something was wrong and wanted to pursue them, they would take the official road, and as long as they set up ambushes along the way, they would definitely be able to intercept the other party.
"Yes!" they echoed in unison.
There are less than 3,000 spirit realm warriors, recuperating.
The official road is smooth all the way, and there is no natural danger to defend, so you can only prepare in advance.
In the morning of the fourth day.
Shang Yin stood on top of the carriage, today's climate, the wind is not so strong, and the vision is relatively clear, he found a place on higher ground and looked into the distance.
An hour later, dozens of miles away, dusty and approaching.
"The horse thieves are really coming, and there are quite a few of them, more than fifty thousand. Shang Yin knew that everyone present was good at volleys, and the effective range was within ten miles.
"Didn't Prince Xia Jie say that he was going to kill the horse thieves to a great defeat? It's only been a few days, why did the horse thieves catch up?" the caravan guards looked angry.
"Maybe something has changed. "Shang Yin didn't have much to say, he came here just in case, and fortunately he came, otherwise, I am afraid that they will all be killed by surprise.
Although these are all warriors of the Spirit Realm, most of them are in the Spirit Body Red Realm, at most in the Spirit Body Yellow Realm, and many people are not more than the Three Realms, and it is a big hurdle to cross the Green Realm.
"Fortunately, there is a little immortal master, otherwise, I am afraid that we will suffer heavy losses, but there are more than 50,000 of these horse thieves, how can we resist?"
"Of course it's kite flying, everyone is good at archery, so why bother with these horse thieves. "Most of the people present are from the Liao Kingdom, and being proficient in archery is a compulsory course in their lives.
"But we can't see the location of these horse thieves, what can we do?"
"It's okay, I can see it, everyone can just throw according to my orders. Shang Yin knew that at this time, it could only be like this.
"Listen to Childe's orders. "These people and the caravan have long been inseparable, and they know that only here, to resist the horse thieves to the greatest extent, can they buy more time for their caravan.
Shang Yin used his pupil technique, watching the horse thief approaching ten miles, he took a deep breath, although he was very afraid of death, but if he couldn't stop it here, more people would die in the caravan.
"Ten miles, release the arrow!" As soon as the words fell, the Sky Eagle Spirit Bow in his hand stirred, and the sharp arrow broke through the air.
Almost all of a sudden, many warriors hooked their bows and arrows in unison, although they couldn't see the horse thieves at all, they all believed in Shang Yin's ability.
Whoosh.
Thousands of arrows rained out, and they shot out in the direction Shang Yin had specified.
Before the horse thieves could see the enemy, they were attacked by a rain of arrows, and thousands of people were shot, fell to the ground, and were directly trampled into flesh by the war horses in the rear.
"Jiuli, release the arrows!" Shang Yin looked at them without the slightest hesitation, continued to forcibly advance, and ordered again.
"Bali, release the arrow!" Everyone present couldn't see it, but they all believed Shang Yin.
It wasn't until the horse thief approached Wuli that Shang Yin gave an order: "Shoot while retreating, let them chase after you." ”
Kite flying is what the Liao soldiers are best at, and the horses under their seats have the best foot strength, and they are all carefully selected.
Shang Yin knew very well that although it was very likely that the quality of the horses was not low for these horse thieves, but after a long-distance run for four consecutive days, people might be fine, but if the horses did not rest, they might not be able to withstand it.
