Chapter 069: Zhuang Diplomatic War

The auction finally ended, and Zhen Yi took the guests who had won the auction to the backyard to trade, and at the same time arranged for the servants to serve the wine and food that had been prepared to everyone.

He also prepared another empty room for those who had no seats, and brought the same table where food and wine were prepared.

During this period, Cao Cao, who was in Luoyang, found Zhen Yi and asked if the treasure knife was still there.

Cao Cao really wanted the knife, and he also bid many times during the auction, but later, seeing that Yuan Shu was already angry, Cao Cao withdrew with interest.

Seeing Cao Cao come to ask, many people who had not obtained what they wanted also came to ask if there were any other strange things.

Zhen Yi told them that in five days, a batch of strange items would be delivered, and they would be sold at 70% of the auction price at the Zhen family's grocery store.

The Zhen family's grocery store here naturally refers to the grocery store opened by the Zhen family in Luoyang.

After the transaction was completed, Zhen Yi found the white-faced bearded Langjun alone and gave him a pack of toilet paper for him to use.

At present, this auction has not been included in the tax system of Han Law, so there is no need to pay taxes for the time being.

But I can't guarantee that anyone will blow the wind in the emperor's ears, and now His Majesty has a flash of inspiration to start this hugely profitable auction.

And the white-faced Langjun, Zhen Yi had already guessed that he must have been sent by a certain eunuch in the palace to join in the fun, and he was happy, at least for the time being, he didn't have to worry about the eunuch making trouble for him.

The other side.

In front of Liu's manor, Gao Sheng stood at the front of the team, calculating the distance of the thieves, and when the thieves were about sixty paces away, he ordered the archers to shoot arrows.

Brush Brush Brush!

A round of arrows was fired, and the victims who picked up their bows and arrows for the first time naturally missed a few people, and even some of the arrows only shot a dozen paces away, and then slowly fell to the ground, and some deviated to the front left or right front of the team.

However, a few people still happened to shoot in front of the thieves.

The leader of the horse, seeing that the other party not only dared to line up to meet the attack, but also had bows and arrows, was frightened and hurriedly reined in his horse to stop the rest of the crowd.

After observing and finding that the opponent's accuracy was extremely poor, the thief knew that the other party was not a regular army, so he laughed again and led people to rush up.

The thieves were just starting when a second round of arrows came again.

After gaining experience once, this time I had a few more arrows to hit the thief.

Two rounds of bows and arrows were fired, and a total of more than a dozen thieves died, while there were five or six hundred thieves, and the dozen or so people who died did not affect their combat strength at all.

However, after the thieves rushed forward for a dozen steps, a dense swishing sound suddenly sounded, and then hundreds of crossbow arrows were shot at the front of the thieves.

When Gao Sheng trained before, he had already learned the function of the repeater, with a range of about fifty paces and three consecutive shots.

The thirty people who had been trained before were now very familiar with the use of repeating crossbows, and they shot out in one round, almost without missing arrows, and all of them were shot at the thieves in the front row.

Another hundred people used it for the first time, and although they were unfamiliar, a third of the arrows hit the thieves.

This round of shooting directly brought down forty or fifty thieves.

The leader of the thieves was shocked again, but the distance between the two sides was only forty or fifty paces, and as long as they rushed closer, the bow and crossbow would not work.

So the leader of the thieves slowed down and drove his men to rush forward.

When the two sides were thirty paces apart, a second round of crossbow arrows came, and this time fifty or sixty thieves fell in the front row of the opposing side.

Looking at the fallen compatriots in front of them, the thieves were a little timid and did not dare to rush forward, but due to the obscenity of the leader, under the loud urging of the leader of the thieves, they had to rush forward again.

Gao Sheng ordered the archers and crossbowmen to stand back, and the spearmen and swordsmen to move forward in turn, ready to meet the enemy behind the shields.

He also ordered the spearmen to stick the tip of their spear out of their shield a little, and when the enemy came near, he pierced the enemy with the tip of his spear.

Again, the Zhuang people had not been trained after all, and after everyone hurriedly poked the tip of the spear out of the big shield, the thief had already rushed to the front.

Gao Sheng, Xia Houlan and the others stood in the gap of the big shield defense in the queue, and when they saw that the enemy had arrived in front of them, Gao Sheng shouted: "Thorn spear!" ”

The length of the spear was far from being comparable to that of a sword, and the thief was basically a sword, and as soon as he rushed close to slash at those who were holding large shields, he was stabbed by a spear that suddenly protruded from behind the shield.

The soldiers were in chaos, and the thieves rushed over and wanted to cut indiscriminately, but they didn't have time to pay attention to the spear that poked out a little bit of the tip of the spear, and without preparation, many thieves were directly pierced by a spear.

They were armless, wearing only ragged clothes and no defenses.

However, there were also a few sharp-eyed thieves, noticing the spear tip next to the shield, and instead of rushing forward, they stopped, but were knocked down by their companions who were running behind, and after being knocked down, they were trampled to death.

There were fifty or sixty fewer thieves in this round of attacks, and before the two armies were in close combat, nearly two hundred thieves had died.

The thieves couldn't help but retreat, the manor they plundered this time was completely different from the manor they had looted before, not only daring to take the initiative, but also having extremely strong strength.

In this case, it is better to retreat early and loot other estates.

But the leader of the thieves didn't think so, he had received news that this manor had purchased grain on a large scale, and there were more than 10,000 stone of grain in the village, and there must be countless gold and silver treasures on the village if there was such a manor with such financial resources to buy grain.

If it can be captured, it will be a double harvest of wealth and food.

It's just that he didn't expect this manor to be so difficult, there are many people with strong financial resources in the manor he robbed before, but he has never encountered a manor with such strong weapons.

However, the leader of the thieves, who was obsessed with wealth, insisted that as long as he was close to each other, he could give full play to the advantages of his side, and still ordered his men to attack.

Gao Sheng, on his side, ordered three hundred swordsmen to attack after the spearmen stabbed their spears out.

Many of Gain's first spearmen were unable to retrieve their spears after stabbing them out hard.

The reasons are different, or the force is too strong to pull out, or after the stabbing is stabbed, the person who has been stabbed falls to the side, and there is a large shield in the middle, and it is not convenient to go out and pick it up.

Seeing this situation, Gao Sheng could only let the sword soldiers attack.

And he himself bore the brunt of the attack, pulling out the matching knife and rushing out.

Xiahou Lan and the others followed closely behind, rushing to kill with Gao Sheng.

Several of them were dressed in scale armor that protected their bodies, and they were very strong, full of pride and ambition to show themselves, and killed a few people as soon as they came up.

The swordsmen followed behind them and rushed towards the demoralized, unarmoured thieves.

At this time, the role of the system to continue to work is shown.

There are many people on Liu An's side who have experienced war for the first time, but they are not afraid of death, their morale is high, and they are not merciless when they kill people with weapons.

After Gao Sheng killed several thieves nearby, he found the leader of the thieves who was riding on a horse, and Xiahou Lan also followed.

When the leader of the thieves saw that the all-armored warrior had killed several people in a row, he came towards his side, and he also rode his horse to meet him.

Since he can be the leader of the thieves, he is naturally good in force, and he rides on a horse, which has a great advantage over the opponent in foot combat.

The two quickly intersected, and the leader of the thieves took advantage of the momentum of the horse to wave the big knife in his hand and slashed at Gao Sheng, who also raised his knife to meet the other party.

Qiang - the two knives were connected, but Gao Sheng withstood the blow of the leader of the thieves with the help of horses.

The leader of the thieves was blocked by Gao Sheng's sword, and the horse's speed slowed down slightly, and he wanted to come back in a circle to fight Gao Sheng, but he didn't want to, Gao Sheng still had the strength to block the knife, and slashed at the hind legs of the horse that swept past him.

Immediately afterward, the leader of the thieves fell off his unbalanced horse and fell to the side.

By the time he got up, Gao Sheng had already rushed over and cut off his head with a single sword.

The surrounding thieves saw that the leader was killed, and only dozens of people rushed towards Gao Sheng to avenge the leader, and the rest of the people turned around and ran.

The thieves who were fighting with the Zhuang people had already intended to retreat, and when they saw their companions fleeing in the rear, they also fled for their lives.
