The battle started quickly, went on quickly, and ended quickly.

When the last big leader, under the cover of a group of relatives, stumbled out of the dense forest, rushed down the hillside, and reached the flat ground, he was attacked head-on by a rain of crossbow arrows.

Huang Zongxi held the latest medium-sized strong crossbow and said excitedly: "It's so sharp, I really want to do another round!" ”

"The range is more than 100 paces, although it is slightly inferior to the strong bow, but it is better than 10 consecutive shots, and there is still room for improvement, which can be expanded to 15 consecutive shots. And the firing process is much easier than a strong bow, and ordinary soldiers only need a little training to kill the enemy! Such a weapon to kill the enemy from a long distance, if it is owned by a brother who is determined to serve the country with the army, is he not ecstatic? ”

After Lu Xiangguan saw the power and convenience of this powerful crossbow, the first thing that came to mind was his brother Lu Xiangsheng, who was worried about the country and the people, and said: "Don't waste it!" ”

"Hmm!" Huang Zongxi nodded, and shouted again, "No, there is still a fish that has slipped through the net!" ”

"Just a thief, Mu Monkey and Crown, leave it to me!" Yuan 13 roared, and then slapped his horse and rushed forward.

The leader was shocked, picked up the old strong crossbow in his hand and fired three crossbow arrows in a row...... It was supposed to be five shots in a row, but the fourth one got stuck.

There was a crosshair, but these crossbow arrows could not cause the slightest damage to the golden-armored knight who rushed towards him with a spear and a horse.

"How so?" The leader's eyes widened, and he watched as Yuan Shisan accelerated from the slap to the horse in a very short time, and then pierced his chest with a sharp and simple shot.

The simple set of so-called armor didn't have the slightest effect - who called the armor happened to break a small hole in the chest, so Yuan Shisan's spear poked into it without hesitation.

The flexible body of the spear arched slightly, and it flew up in the air with this tall body of two hundred pounds.

Yuan 13 ran out of more than 20 steps, and when he was about to reach the foot of the mountain, his waist and horse were united, and he exerted his strength violently, and threw it on a thick tree trunk with one arm, and then reined in the horse violently.

The war horse man stood up, and his two huge front hooves stepped on the snow-covered land, like two thick drumsticks, knocking on a heavy war drum, and making a loud "dong" sound in people's hearts.

"Poof!" The ringleader's mouth spurted out a large amount of blood, his eyes bulging out, and he died of exhaustion.

Wang Hu and the others were condescending, although there were dense forests cascading to block the view, but most people still saw this scene very clearly.

Such superb riding skills, such sharp killing skills, immediately convinced them, and muttered to themselves: "I'm obedient, is this Guanning Iron Cavalry?" ”

Remembering that in Jingshi before, what they wanted to kill was such a mighty group of people, many people were even more cold sweat in this cold weather, and they were very glad that it was in the alley, not on the flat ground.

Otherwise, their injuries will definitely be even worse.

"That's right, this is the Guanning Iron Horse, but it's only a solo ride. This alone shocked you into such a look, and it is hard to imagine whether you will pee your pants when you see the thousands of troops and horses rushing towards Jiannu. ”

Yuan Qi didn't know when he came out, and almost said close to Wang Hu's ear.

But the sound of his volume was heard by all the Shandong rangers.

The lark and some of the rangers who were not very good-tempered suddenly roared angrily: "You dare to humiliate us like this! ”

The so-called puppet is angry, and blood is splashed in five steps.

Shandong Ranger's happiness and enmity, Yuan Qi has a certain understanding, so he hurriedly laughed and said: "Just kidding, just kidding, please don't take it seriously." Brother Wang Hu, please believe that His Royal Highness the King is invited. ”

Wang Hu followed his gesture and looked, only to see a heavy man in armor really standing under a boulder and smiling at him, and said in a daze: "Why is he His Royal Highness the King of Letters?" ”

Yuan Qi was stunned and said, "Why can't he be His Royal Highness King Xin?" ”

Wang Hu pointed to the majestic golden-armored warrior at the foot of the mountain and said, "Isn't that His Royal Highness King Xin?" ”

Yuan Qidao: "No, no, no, you're mistaken, that's not, that's just wearing the armor of His Royal Highness King Xin." ”

"Well, His Highness King Xin is really cunning. But the cunning King Xin, how can there be such a simple subordinate as you? Wang Hu shrugged his shoulders and untied all his weapons, and took some brothers such as the Lark Mountain Monkey to Chongzhenxing.

They walked very slowly, but Chongzhen had already seen them flying through the mountains and forests, especially the two on Wang Hu's left and right, one was thin and tall, like a monkey in the mountains. A small, thin one, like a lark in the woods.

When they came closer, Shigejin jumped off the boulder and stood on the same horizon as them.

But even so, he was still much taller than the tallest boy Wang Hu.

You must know that Wang Hu and the others are all Shandong teenagers.

Wang Hu and the others originally climbed towards Chongzhen with their heads up, but this move immediately surprised them, and they were moved by emotion in their hearts, and under his leadership, they hugged their fists and bowed their heads and said: "The grass people have seen His Royal Highness King Xin. ”

"They're all good guys." Chongzhen looked over one by one, and he didn't even miss the distance away, and there was a strong color of appreciation in his eyes.

Even if he was a proud young ranger in his heart, he was so praised by King Da Mingxin, who had been in the limelight recently, and he was all happy in his heart, even if he was still quite hateful to him before, he completely erased the hatred in his heart.

Only Wang Hu sighed in his heart, hesitated slightly, and said, "What does King Xin command?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"Not bad." Chongzhen did not hesitate to praise, "I remember your voice, it was the one who was ordered in the dog's tail alley, right?" ”

Wang Hu couldn't hold back the shock in his heart any longer, and said in shock: "His Royal Highness the King of Letters......

Chongzhen waved his hand and said: "Don't panic, this king has no malicious intentions, he will neither unload the mill to kill the donkey, nor will he trick you into killing when you get close, that is a means that will only be taken against the enemy." ”

After these words, even the vigilant Wang Hu was moved, not to mention the rest of the upright and heroic Shandong rangers, there were a few who were very young and emotional, and they were even slightly choked.

Chongzhen laughed and said: "The man doesn't flick when he has tears, but he hasn't reached the sad place." This king is going to the northwest, there are a series of hard battles to be fought, and it is necessary to have an iron army that is absolutely loyal, like an arm. Therefore, this king only asks you one sentence - are you willing to follow this king and fight in the northwest? ”

"This ......" young man is arrogant and impulsive. Many rangers subconsciously agreed, but in the end, they still focused their eyes on Wang Hu, who was in the lead.

Wang Hu hesitated slightly, after all, they had just set their dream land in Liaodong, but now they were going to follow King Xin to conquer the northwest, which seemed to be a bit of a disagreement, and it seemed to be ...... There's nothing wrong with that.

Liaodong and Shandong are very close, if Guanning is lost, if the mountains and seas are broken, then the first to be impacted in addition to Gyeonggi, it will be the land of Qilu. But the northwest is also the land of the Ming Dynasty, and there is no difference between the mulberry elm in the east.

Chongzhen looked at Wang Hu and said, "Bento was hired by this king." If you don't want to join the army after the trip to the northwest, you can come and go freely. If you are willing to enlist in the army, you will continue to follow this king and fight in all directions. ”

Wang Hu heard Chongzhen's words extremely solemn, so he said in a deep voice: "Why did His Royal Highness the King of Faith say this? ”

Chongzhen sighed lightly: "Let's tell you the truth, the next seventeen or eighteen years of the Ming Dynasty will be spent in the boundless war, especially the seventeenth year of Chongzhen." Whether it is reborn from the ashes or the fall of the land depends on our performance. ”

"Seventeen years of Chongzhen?" Wang Hu was a little unsure, but he was worthy of being called a "smart tiger boy", and immediately exclaimed, "Your Highness is saying that the Jiannu of Liaodong will attack the Guannai and trap my Chinese soil?" How is this possible? In front of the Ning defense line, there is a strong team of Denglai on the side......"

Just like Wang Hu thought, after Jiannu entered the customs, the land of Qilu will definitely bear the brunt, so the Qilu rangers who heard this were all shocked, and shouted: "Yes, yes, this is absolutely impossible!" ”

Chongzhen said solemnly: "Nothing is impossible! This king is inspirational and strives to turn the tide, for which the day and night will be won, and every second counts. As a Qilu hero, Hugh wants to be a mother-in-law again, just say that you dare or not! ”

Rao is Wang Hu is extremely smart, and he was also furious by this layer of agitation, and blurted out: "Why don't you dare!" ”

Chongzhen laughed and said, "Okay! The men of my generation are full of words, and this king is waiting for you. ”

Wang Hu was shocked to fall for his dog, but he categorically had no idea of repentance, and only stared at him.

Chongzhen pointed to the bodies in the mountains and forests: "The origin of these people is unknown, and this king doesn't want to pursue it, if you don't dislike it, their armor and weapons will be all your trophies."

Of course, these are all rotten goods in the eyes of this king, and the equipment under the command of this king has also been seen. ”

The lark stared at the short fire gun at his waist and asked, "Does this include this?" ”

Chongzhen took out the firecracker, spun around a few times in his hand like a gun in his previous life, and said, "Do you know what this thing is called, how effective it is, and how to operate it?" ”

The lark shook his head innocently and said, "I don't know, but I want to know." ”

Chongzhen said: "This is a firecracker, to be precise, it can be officially renamed a musket, a flintlock musket. The one you see is the short musket in it, and if you go further, you can call it a pistol. ”

"Pistol?" The lark stretched out his palms and put his four fingers together, cocked his thumb, hooked his little thumb and ring finger, and said, "Is that so?" Is this how the pistol is fired? ”

As he spoke, he pointed at the head of the mountain monkey, learning the defensive posture of Chongzhen and others he had just seen, trembling with one hand, salivating in his eyes, and spontaneously sounding in his mouth: "Bang! Boom! ”

The mountain monkey was furious, and immediately did not want to show weakness, and fought back without saying a word.
