Chapter 449: Slaughtering Cows

More than 200 people walked on the continuous grassland, surrounded by beautiful scenery, but Wu Gan's mood did not improve much.

Along the way, if the people of the Ji family kept a distance from the dreadnought, they even had to separate their meals. It is to take water in the same river, as long as the dreadnought army has taken the section of the river, the people of the Ji family have to go upstream and walk a little more before they are willing to drink water.

The dreadnought army was a little dissatisfied with this, but under the suppression of Xue Xin and others, no major conflict broke out between the two sides.

However, this matter also buried a layer of haze in Wu Gan's heart, from small to big, it can be seen from the attitude of these people towards the dreadnought army, when they get to Cold Land City, I am afraid there will be more twists and turns.

On this day, the group came to a swamp with lush water and grass. There are puddles of water everywhere, large and small, and if a man or a horse accidentally falls into them, the tangled aquatic weeds and sticky silt will turn all living things into their parts.

In the swamp, only a dry and hard road in the middle can be passed, which is also a safe passage that I don't know how many *** lives have been swallowed.

The clear water on both sides of the road, dotted with unknown wildflowers, looks pleasant, and only the white bones that occasionally emerge from the mud remind the danger of this swamp.

Wu Gen and Ji Nan were walking side by side on the road, and their horse heads happened to be in the same line. Followed by the Dreadnought Army and the people of the Ji family, these two groups of people lined up in two lines, and each other's well water did not interfere with the river water.

Originally, these soldiers of the Ji family followed closely behind Ji Nan and occupied the entire road, and under the collision of Xue Xin and others, intentionally or unintentionally, they became what they are now.

The road is facing the sky, and each side is half gone.

Along the way, although Ji Nan has always maintained respect for Wu Gan, anyone can see the arrogance and reserve between his hands and feet.

Shhhhh If he hadn't thought that the dreadnought army could live on the territory of the Ji family, he would have pressed Ji Nan's pig's head into the stinky water, and he would have to step on two feet.

A dirt slope appeared on the road ahead, blocking everyone's view.

Just as he was about to slowly go uphill, a circle of ripples suddenly appeared in the waterhole on the side of the road, Wu Yan couldn't help but be stunned, raised his hand, and the dreadnought army behind him quickly stopped.

Ji Nan didn't react for a while, and walked a few steps forward to restrain the horse, "Wu Gongzi, but there is something."

"Don't you think the swamp is moving?" Wu Gen pointed to the waterhole next to him, and a circle of ripples appeared in the water, gradually turning into sparkling.

Ji Nan frowned, "Young Master Wu, it may just be caused by the footsteps of our horse team, there is no need to be so nervous, it is still important to hurry."

Wu Yan glanced at the other party like an idiot, he had walked such a long way, and there was no such situation, and the movement of the horse team, is there no one under Ji Ye, send such a thing.

Ignoring Ji Nan, Wu Gan grabbed the horse under him with his legs and galloped towards the high slope.

Xue Xin, who was behind him, glanced at Ji Nan and followed closely.

When he reached the high slope, Wu Gan's face changed suddenly. Nearly 100 cows appeared on the road ahead. These cows were more than a foot tall, with crooked heads and thick coarse hair, and they were somehow running wildly along the road.

Compared with the war horses under Wu Gen and others, they are like young children seeing adults.

Ji Nan also rushed over at this time, and when he saw the fierce Kui Niu who occupied the entire road, he couldn't help but turn pale with fright, and said tremblingly: "Wu Gongzi, let's quickly turn around and escape, there are so many Kui Niu, if you want to rush up, you can't trample us all into mud." said that he was about to turn around without waiting for Wu Gen to answer.

"You can't escape."

"You can't turn around."

Wu Gen and Xue Xin roared at the same time, how could such a tall Kui Niu be able to run his horse. And all hunters know that Kui Niu has a very strong endurance and a quirk, as long as there is a living creature running in front of him, he will stare at it and never stop until he overturns the other party.

On the grassland, when you encounter this herd of cattle, you can either run past it or you can only run to a high place. Because although the ox runs fast, it is not good at climbing.

"What then?" Ji Nan's voice was bright

Obviously trembling, he grew up in Cold Land City since he was a child, where has he ever seen such a formation.

"Defend the slope." Wu Yan shouted, and with a wave of his hand, Xue Xin had already run downhill to beckon the dreadnought army to prepare to form a formation.

"Wu Gongzi, how can this be prevented, it is important to run for your life quickly." Ji Nan was a little anxious, and took the lead in turning around. With his move, the soldiers of the Ji family behind him also turned around one after another, trying to flee for their lives.

The dreadnought army moved forward, and the Ji family moved backwards, mixing with each other. As a result, the narrow road suddenly became chaotic.

"No return." Wu Gen shouted violently, and the broken knife was already out of its sheath and slashed towards the swamp beside him. A turbid wave flew up and fell on the heads of the people, "Whoever dares to stir, I will be the first to kill him." Fearless soldiers, out of the sword, those who dare to resist will be killed."

After the sound of knives and scabbards rubbing, all the dreadnoughts drew their scimitars, lowered their masks, and stared viciously at the Ji family soldiers beside them. The owner of the village has already ordered that as long as the other party dares to disobey the order, these people will not hesitate to swing the scimitar in their hands at the neck of the Ji family.

"Wu Gan, what do you want to do, do you want to rebel, this is the Iron Hand Province, it is the world of the Ji family, you can think clearly." Ji Nan's voice was full of emotion, and he looked at Wu Yan angrily.

"I miss you bear, little white face." A giant palm stretched out beside him, Cheng Jie directly carried Ji Nan over, placed it on his horse, and pressed the back of his neck with a giant axe, "When the master of my village speaks, it is also your turn to interject, and if you say one more word, you will take off your Tianling cover as a bowl."

Ji Nan was a little stunned for a while, it was not that he had no cultivation, but he didn't expect that someone would dare to make a move on him, plus he rarely fought with people in Hanlu City, so he was caught off guard and was captured by Cheng Jie on the spot.

Wu Gan nodded approvingly, and shouted down the slope, "Bring their shields and form a formation on the slope."

Soon the dreadnought dismounted, snatched the shield from the hands of the Ji family, came to the high slope, and formed a military formation of thirty people along the downward slope.

The army was covered with shields and spears stretched out, while the men behind them also stretched out their spears down the slope, and at the end there were rows of archers.

With such a big cow, the scimitar is like a toothpick for it, and it is no longer useful.

The people of the Ji family were intimidated by Wu Qian's actions, and Ji Nan was captured, so they were a little stunned for a while. Some people didn't want to come forward to save Ji Nan, but they were stopped by the people next to them.

These soldiers are not all as stupid as Ji Nan, some people have already seen that at this time, they can only give their backs to Kui Niu, plus the road is narrow and crowded, they can't run, and finally end up being trampled or drowned.

On the contrary, I saw that the dreadnoughts simply formed a battle formation, and the layers were clear and defensive, and my heart was a lot calmer. Some spontaneously came up the slope and followed the archers, ready to shoot arrows to intercept.

Soon, Kui Niu approached the high slope. The sound of rumbling hooves sounded, and the whole swamp seemed to tremble, and from time to time a fish jumped out of the pool in fright.

Xue Xin pulled out his sword, glanced at Wu Gan, who was expressionless, and roared angrily, "Release the arrow."

Well, Rulin's arrow flew up from the slope, drew a long arc in the air, and landed on the herd.

"Moo......" the angry cow screamed. Kui Niu's body is decorated with a lot of arrows, but the dense hair and the mud left by rolling in the mud greatly reduces the damage of the arrows, and only the bow engraved with the blood spirit rune can cause greater trauma to the cow's body.

Wu Gen took off the heaven-shaking bow, hooked the string with his thumb, and used his middle index finger hard, and the hard bow gradually became a full moon. There were three loud bangs, and three white arrows appeared almost simultaneously, turning into billowing clouds and heading straight for the cattle.

In an instant, Wu Gan opened his bow three times and shot his arrow three times, and his movements were so fast that the afterimages overlapped each other. In the eyes of others, he shot three arrows at once. With such a rapid launch, the burden on the body can be imagined, if it weren't for the second thunderstorm, Wu Gen really wouldn't dare to hold it up so much.

Such a magic skill made the people of the Ji family on the slope look at each other, and secretly rejoiced that Fang had not rebelled.

At the bottom of the slope, the oxen that were running in front of them did not even bark, but were torn apart and spread on the ground.

The Kui Niu in the back hesitated slightly

After a while, the momentum of the forward rush is slightly sluggish. But instinctively, he ran forward again, but at a slower pace.

"Shoot the arrows." Xue Xin raised his knife again. As the distance gets closer, the damage of the arrows also increases significantly. Some of the cows fell to the ground in pain, and were quickly trampled into pulp by their companions behind them.

Kui Niu is getting closer and closer, gradually approaching the high slope, Xue Xin reached out and picked up the spear, staring at Kui Niu's movements, but did not throw it.

The first row of Kui Oxen had already run down the slope, and the huge hooves of the cows were trampled on the ground, and the vibration came from the ground, making everyone's face tremble.

One step, two steps...... Kui Niu pressed forward step by step, but Xue Xin was unmoved. Everyone was waiting for his first shot to be fired, and some people in the Ji family were already a little breathless, glancing behind them from time to time.

Finally, when Kui Niu was only twenty steps away from the wall formed by the shield, and was also at the steepest part of the slope, Xue Xin threw his spear fiercely.

For a moment, dozens of spears flew towards Kui Niu, who was burying his head and rushing with a sharp whistling sound. The sharp head of the spear pierced the thick skin of the cow and pierced its flesh, causing the cow to roll to the ground in pain, trying to break the barrel of the gun.

As a result, the spearhead rampaged through his body, and the fallen Kui Niu blocked his companion's path. For a time, the herd was in chaos, and many cattle were knocked down the slope.

Kui Niu is not good at running on such a steep slope, and once the momentum of the forward rush stops, it is even more difficult to exert strength again.

In the confusion, the oxen trampled each other, some died under the hooves of their companions, some were crushed and fell into the mire on both sides of the slope, and some were killed by the arrows that were fired.

Occasionally, one or two would climb to the top of the hill and climb up the diagonal shield wall, but they would be pierced by the spears sticking out from under the shields. Some of them were lucky enough to cross the shield wall, but they were skinned and deboned on the spot by the Lingyun Eight Riders behind.

After a while, the noise below the hillside subsided. In front of the slope, there were the corpses of Kui Niu lying horizontally and vertically, and a few still alive finally came to their senses, turned around and ran in the direction they came.

Wu Yan waved his hand, and the dreadnoughts on the slope removed their shields and methodically cleaned up the cattle carcass. The meat was taken, cramped, and even the horns were chopped off. Most of these people are from Orion backgrounds, so they naturally know what is useful on Kui Niu.

Ji Nan was also put down at this time, looking at the tragic scene in front of him, the fearless sergeant who cleaned up the cow corpse with an expressionless face, and was a little afraid for a while.

If Fang Cai's own subordinates were up against these skilled cattle killers, he would not be thrown into a nearby puddle of mud like these cattle.

"Wu Gongzi, the matter of Fang Cai ......" Ji Nan cautiously came to Wu Gan's side, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by the other party.

"Gather the men and we'll get out of here." Wu Gen commanded almost in a commanding tone.

Ji Nan's face was red and white for a while, but he still followed Wu Gan's meaning and asked his subordinates to quickly reorganize the team.

The team moved cautiously along the way, but fortunately, no other changes occurred.

When he was about to walk out of the swamp, Suo Ji urged his horse to Wu Gan's side, glanced at Ji Nan, who was a little embarrassed behind him, and reported in a low voice: "My lord, these Kui Niu should have been driven here, and I found some medicine to repel beasts."

"Oh." Wu Yan was slightly stunned, looked back at the big banner of Ji characters flying high in the team, and frowned tightly.
