Chapter 195 [From Far Away] (II)
Tan Zicong hurriedly raised his binoculars and looked, there were four knights, they were in the dust, it seemed that they should have come from a long journey. As the four approached, their images gradually became clearer, but in order to shield them from the sun and the wind and sand, they all wore turbans covering their faces like Arabs, and they could not see their specific faces.
Tan Zicong put down the binoculars and said in a deep voice: "Horse!" Different people often see different goals, Tan Zicong now wants to get the most is the horse, especially after they lost their means of transportation last night, the importance of horses has become self-evident, if you can grab the mount, at least some problems can be solved.
Tan Tiande understood his mind just from the word that came out of his son's mouth, after all, they were robbers, and they couldn't get rid of their essence at any time.
Although there were only more than seventy of them left, they still had an absolute advantage in the scene, not to mention that on this Gobi Desert, they were the real masters, and they didn't make too many arrangements, so they decided to lay an ambush on the spot, where they were located was a mound, and when the four knights came below, they could attack, and it was best to take the opponent's horses without blood, and if they encountered resistance, they also hoped to minimize the casualties.
The four knights got closer and closer, and were about to enter their attack range, Tan Zicong picked up the binoculars again to confirm the distance between each other to determine the timing of the attack. But at this moment, a roar suddenly came from behind him, and when he turned to look, he saw a companion flying on top of another person and biting that person's neck.
The man who was attacked raised his pistol and aimed it at the crazy companion, a shot hit him in the eye at close range, blood burst everywhere, he pushed away the body of the companion with difficulty, only to find that all the muzzles of the surrounding black holes were aimed at him, he held the gun in one hand, covered the neck of the blood that was constantly spurting out, and screamed: "Don't force me, don't force me, don't force me......" He got up from the ground and ran down the mound, and before he could go far, a volley of guns was fired from behind him, and his body rolled down the slope until it rolled down the mound.
The four knights heard the gunshots first, then saw the corpse rolling down the hillside, and several of them hurriedly reined in the reins of their horses while looking over the mound.
And the corpse that had just rolled down staggered to the ground at this moment, moved its head, and grew its mouth in an extremely exaggerated way, Bai Sensen's teeth showed a terrible reflection under the scorching sun, and his blood-red eyes were dull.
The man on the far left of the four knights took the lead, took out the shotgun hanging behind his right leg with lightning speed, aimed it at the head of the infected with one hand, and shot out, the opponent's head flew out like a watermelon that had been bombarded at close range, scattering blood and brains all over the ground.
The man after the shot pulled down the gray bandana covering his face with his left hand, revealing a handsome and cold face, this person was Lu Weilin, and the three people around him were Zhang Longbow, Arnold and Tiewa. Originally, Lu Weilin and the three of them were not together, Zhang Changgong and the three returned to Baishan after leaving Beiping, and soon after the blind man accompanied his grandmother to Baishan, his grandmother suddenly fell ill and sought medical treatment everywhere to no avail, and couldn't help but think of the Mongolian doctor Zhuo Yishou and the divine doctor Wu Jie.
In their opinion, as long as they can find any of the two people and invite them to Baishan, Grandma Chen's illness may be eliminated, and the blind man and Zhou Xiaodie are naturally inconvenient to travel far while serving by Grandma's side. Zhang Changgong was worried that Arnold would be greedy for alcohol and make mistakes, and it would be fine to stay in Baishan anyway, so he decided to come with Arnold, and happened to take the child Tiewa out to experience it.
As for Lu Weilin, a few people happened to meet after arriving in Mukden, Lu Weilin didn't even think about it after hearing about them, and the four of them were different from Luo Hunt's masochistic journey, they chose to ride a car if they could, and they chose to ride a horse if they could ride a horse, plus they had something to do, and they had no time to browse the scenery on the way, so the itinerary was naturally much faster than Luo Hunt.
They passed through here this time to go to Xinmanying, although Yan Tuojiang lost power, Ma Yongping concealed the whole thing very well, and the news was not widely spread. Several of them were going to Xinmanying to visit Yan Tuojiang to inquire about Yan Tianxin's whereabouts, as long as they found Yan Tianxin, they would naturally be able to find Luo Lie.
Among the four people, Zhang Longbow's reaction speed is by no means inferior to Lu Weilin, the reason why Lu Weilin was the first to shoot was because it was related to his previous experience, he and Luo Lie went deep into the underground of the Old Summer Palace together, and at that time they saw the scene of the gopher going crazy, and the person who intended to attack them in front of him was very similar to the performance of the gopher before, so Lu Weilin would react at the first time and shoot it.
At the same time as Lu Weilin attacked, the other three also reacted at the same time, they took out their respective weapons, and Zhang Longbow reminded them to retreat to the rear at the same time, he had already seen that there was probably an ambush hidden on the mound.
Zhang Longbow's guess was not wrong, but the bandits of Hongshi Village had no time to complete the ambush on them, and a carnage unfolded inside them. Tan Zicong thought that he had eliminated all the possible infected, but he was careless, and there were still fish that slipped through the net in their team.
Some of the lightly injured bandits did not report their condition truthfully, and their disease characteristics were different from those of the infected in the old camp, which usually became ill immediately after being bitten, and the infected in their ranks seemed to have a longer incubation period.
More than 10 people in the team of more than 70 people have been infected, and this group of bandits in Hongshi Village is too busy to take care of themselves, how can they still care about robbing them?
Most of the bandits who had not yet been infected were frightened to see their former best friends suddenly lose their minds and attack them like mad demons, and one by one they no longer had the intention of fighting, and retreated down the slope while firing.
The four of them could have walked away, but they didn't, Zhang Longbow frowned two thick eyebrows, bent his bow and set up an arrow, the bow was like a full moon, and an arrow broke through the air, and the feather arrow made a sharp whistling, and the piercing sound almost tore people's eardrums, and the arrow was nailed into the forehead of an infected person like a meteor, shooting the infected person to the ground.
After the longbow was activated, Tiewa followed, and took out the iron tire slingshot, and the projectiles the size of hickory nuts rained down into the chaotic camp, and Tiewa's technique was also extremely accurate, specifically aiming at the eyes of those infected.
Lu Weilin turned over and dismounted, aiming at the gun in a half-squatting position, he was originally a super-first-class sharpshooter, and he had no bullets.
Arnold lifted the turban covering his head, but he was not in a hurry to join the fight, his hands pulled the turban back and forth like a fan, he was not as good as the three of his comrades in long-range shooting, so it was better to watch from the wall.
In fact, there was no need for Arnold to join, and the situation was quickly brought under control.
Even with Tan Tiande's spicy eyes, he didn't expect that these fat sheep who were going to rob were actually hidden masters, lamenting bad luck and feeling lucky, if it wasn't for the help of a few of them, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to pass this level.
The uninfected stabilized their camp and, with the help of Zhang Changgong and others, began to annihilate those already infected companions.
Tan Tiande saw that his son was not far from him, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately his son was fine, Tan Zicong shot down two subordinates in a row, came to his father panting, and said in a panic: "Dad, are you okay?"
Tan Tiande nodded, secretly thinking in his heart, although this child is not angry, but after all, he is still filial, and he still did not throw himself away in this situation.
Tan Zicong counted the infected who were killed in this battle, they lost another twenty-three people, and now there are only forty-six left, Tan Zicong returned to his father and whispered: "Those four people don't know where they came from, their marksmanship is really powerful, I think it's better not to provoke them." ”
Tan Tiande sighed secretly in his heart, is this still what you say? Stretched out his hand and patted his son's shoulder and said, "Zicong, people have helped us, so we have to go over and thank you." ”
Tan Zicong nodded, turned around and looked at the subordinates around him, but found that they had chosen to leave in twos and threes, Tan Zicong couldn't help but say angrily: "What are you doing? Where are you going?"
None of the people who left responded to him, Tan Zicong said angrily: "Whoever dares to leave, I will destroy him with one shot!" He raised his pistol, Tan Tiande's eyes were quick, and he held his hand holding the gun. He had already seen that the hearts of the people were scattered, and the group of subordinates who had left had not only lost trust in their father and son, but they were also suspicious of the possibility of infection in their companions. The twisted melon is not sweet, and if you have to gather together the subordinates who have been reduced to scattered sand, the consequences can only be counterproductive.
Tan Zicong understood something from his father's painful and helpless eyes, and he could only accept the reality, but the reality was even more cruel than he expected, and none of the remaining forty or so people were willing to stay and follow their father and son, and it didn't take long for them to leave cleanly.
Tan Zicong hated to rush up and kill these subordinates who had turned their backs on them, but in the end he endured it.
Tan Tiande secretly sighed in his heart, the tree fell and scattered, his big tree had not fallen, but his subordinates had fled in all directions, no matter what, at least the two of them were still alive and well, and things had developed to this point, Tan Tiande could only accept the reality.
At this time, Zhang Changgong and the four of them came towards the two fathers and sons, and Tan Tiande remembered that he should step forward to thank him, took a few steps forward, and hugged his fists and said, "Thank you for the help of a few strong men." He bowed to others and thought that the other party would treat him with courtesy, but he immediately felt that the four of them had unkind faces, especially the young man on the far left, who raised the hanging muzzle of the gun again.
