Chapter 101: What the Thousand Husband Refers to (2)

"The nomadic barbarians are attacking the north side of the ticket!" “

Zheng Quqi suddenly shouted with a loud roar, which directly stunned everyone.

They stopped fighting and looked at her in amazement.

At first, he was unconvinced, but when he looked out over the mountain road to the north, he saw a band of brightly colored cavalry rushing across the mountain, which was characteristic of the nomadic barbarian's uniform.

At this moment, it happened that a barbarian general raised his head and looked at this side.

When that pair of green eyes that seemed to be about to eat people met Bai Gongguan, even if they were separated by a distance of several kilometers, even he might not be able to pay attention to the look on each other's faces......

But at that moment, the ferocious aura of the other party like a fierce beast hunting its prey frightened him so much that his limbs weakened, and he almost fell to the ground with a butt.

"Yes, it's true!"

Zheng Quqi stepped forward and pushed him, recalling his stunned senses, and said loudly: "What are you still standing stupidly for?" You hurry up and contact the other engineers, take all the craftsmen near the Guiqi Ridge to hide first, and I will go to the pier first to release wolf smoke to notify the nearby guards and the garrison camp. ”

At this time, the others also saw a group of barbarian cavalry rushing towards the mountain road, and they were immediately frightened, and their minds were blank.

Why...... The nomadic barbarians broke through the border defense line again so quickly?

What about the border troops living in the south, east, and west?

Why didn't anyone come to inform, let alone intercept this group of barbarian cavalry?!

"What are you still doing, run! Remember what I trained you to do in case of a crisis? She snapped their attention back.

Everyone was shocked, and then some people woke up and hurriedly replied: "The alarm bell indicates, disperse, hide in the cave, wait for instructions." ”

"Good! If you remember everything, go for it immediately! Don't be afraid, we've rehearsed everything in advance, just do it as we did before, and it'll be fine. ”

Her sonorous and powerful voice reached everyone's ears like a force injected into their hearts, removing the fear that was dark in front of their eyes.

"Go!"

This order made the people present startled, and they hurriedly said: "Good, good! ”

As soon as the crowd dispersed, they all hurried to do things according to the procedures she arranged.

They ran to the top of the city wall, and several people pulled the huge warning bell together.

Knocking three times and two times is a three-level alert, and it is also a reminder to all craftsmen that there is an imminent enemy attack, and all craftsmen engaged in the vicinity must evacuate as quickly as possible.

After Zheng Quqi experienced the slaughter of nomadic barbarians, he has always been haunted by this.

She imagined that if there had been emergency measures to avoid danger, perhaps not so many people would have died.

Therefore, after she was in charge of the work, she made a special trip to the county to apply to hang a warning bell on top of the tall building.

Its purpose is to gather craftsmen and to notify nearby craftsmen of urgent matters in a timely manner.

When she heard the long, loud sound of the bell wall, she looked back and saw that the birds were screaming and fluttering in the silent woods, and all kinds of chaotic noises and buzzing were faintly heard not far away.

For now, it seems that they are doing what she told them to do.

After the personnel were evacuated, they would find their own way to get to the hiding place she had predetermined in advance.

It was a natural cave hidden in the mountains and forests, and she estimated that it could accommodate more than 1,000 people at the same time.

Rather than fleeing in a panic when they are being chased, it is better to find a hiding place and concentrate on hiding them, and she also taught them how to hide the footprints left behind them from being tracked by enemy troops.

She is now very glad for the preparation she had made for "just in case", if not, she is afraid that the bloody tragedy of the previous one will be repeated today.

But shelter alone is not enough, foreign aid is also needed to rescue and drive them away, otherwise if the other party investigates and searches carefully, she doesn't know how long the cave can hide them.

She ran desperately all the way, trying to run to the side of the beacon pier as soon as possible to burn smoke and call for help.

The beacon pier was built in the dangerous part of the city wall, and on the flatter part of the high mountain, but this road was so far away for her now, so far away that she couldn't seem to see the end at all.

It was really helpless for her to do this kind of thing alone, and the others were basically stupid when they heard about the invasion of the nomadic barbarians, and she had no way to entrust anyone to do this, only she was calmer, so she simply came by herself.

But in fact, she seems to have overestimated herself.

She really didn't have such a stable state of mind to deal with, she was like a frightened bird along the way, always worried that one or several wandering men would emerge in a certain bush or a certain fork in the road, and she even heard the sound of horses' hooves in the North Mountain aisle getting closer and closer, echoing in the earth......

She didn't know how long it would take for the nomad barbarian to reach the quarries and shantytowns, and she certainly couldn't get as far as a four-legged one to chase after her, and if she was spotted by the nomad barbarian halfway, she would be in danger.

Therefore, before arriving at Fengsui Duntai, she must first ensure her own safety, so that she can wait for Yu Wensheng and them with the others.

Yu Wensheng......

Obviously, on weekdays, as long as she thinks of this person, she feels cold all over her body, but now when she thinks of his name like this, she has a sense of security under his protection.

He doesn't look like a good man, but he's going to come to save the people in the land he governs.

She silently said, "I must hold on until he comes......

She stopped running, and the next moment, she turned decisively and ran into a camphor forest around a path.

Through the marks she deliberately left behind, she retrieved the crossbow she had buried, which Autumn had given her for a mission.

She strapped her quiver, picked up her crossbow, and returned to her original path, continuing towards the beacon pier.

But this time, she has a weapon in her hand to deal with the enemy, and she naturally has some confidence in her heart.

She cheered herself up.

This time, she wanted to do everything she could to protect these craftsmen.

Yu Wensheng handed over the fortifications and these people to her, and she is no longer just an ordinary craftsman, she has this responsibility and obligation.

Even if it wasn't for these, most of them had gotten along with her day and night, and they would call her "Sanggong" enthusiastically when they met, and she didn't want to see a familiar person die tragically in front of her like this.

Halfway up the mountain road, she was already sweating and panting, and when she raised her head, she saw that the beacon pier was about to arrive, but the joy in her eyes had not yet overflowed, but she heard a wind in her ears.

She turned her head, and the afterglow swept over an afterimage that was approaching her, and she hurriedly rolled on a donkey and narrowly avoided it.

Kick!

A short wooden spear staggered past her, sinking deep into the ground.

Zheng Quqi's pupils tightened.

Recently, she has been practicing the "bone tenderness" diligently, and finally played a key role in the moment of crisis, so that her body's agility has improved a lot unconsciously.

If it weren't for that, that shot would have been thrown, even if her eyes caught the traces, she was afraid that her body would not be able to dodge.

This short spear would never appear here for no reason, and it almost took her life, Zheng Quqi looked around, only to see that there were already four nomadic barbarians guarding the beacon pier.

When they saw Zheng Quqi, the look of contempt and mockery in their eyes was undisguised, and they still said a lot of words in their mouths.

Although Zheng Quqi didn't understand these slang, he also understood what they meant.

She slowly took out an arrow and put it on the crossbow machine, mobilized her whole body muscles, and prepared to attack: "How did you barbarians get in?" ”

The previous massacre had given the entire Fuxian County and the Nine Border Towns a warning that it was impossible for them not to take any measures.

But now that these nomadic barbarians had broken in again with such swagger, there was no trace of a rush to kill, and the scale was far greater than the previous temptation, as if they were confident about this battle, so she had to be suspicious.

"Ula coo."

A nomadic brute spoke to her.

Zheng Quqi didn't know if he understood what he was saying, but she carefully studied his vocalizations and vocabulary, but they were completely unfamiliar.

Since you can't communicate with each other, don't bother talking.

Thinking of Fang Cai's shot, Zheng Quqi's light brown eyes were as hot as flames, and he raised his crossbow and aimed at his forehead: "Shut up, you birdman." ”

Boom - just heard a shadow of breaking the sky pass by, and the four nomadic barbarians didn't even see her put on any aiming stance, starting, pulling, shooting, and in a second, the arrow had hit the center of an eyebrow.

Boom!

The one who fell in response...... It was one of the nomadic barbarians who spoke foul language to Zheng Quqi.

His eyes widened before he died, and he still had this expression after death, bleeding all over his face.

"Ahh

Seeing their companion die and fall to the ground, the remaining three nomadic barbarians turned pale at first, but then they were enraged by this bloody scene, and they all pulled out their bent knives at their waists and rushed towards her.

Zheng Quqi took a few steps back.

The three of them were too scattered and moving, perhaps knowing that her archery skills were not easy, so they blocked the scimitar in front of them, and quickly swung them together to protect the vital parts, as they approached her.

Zheng Quqi analyzed that she couldn't shoot three people at the same time at the moment, but if she only shot one, the other two would be able to seize the opportunity to capture her.

The only way to do this is to retreat for the time being, and then wait for the opportunity to shoot.

She put away her crossbow, turned and ran backwards, her feet were not slow, and the three nomadic barbarians were cautious in their feet, because they were always on the lookout for her to shoot arrows, and the distance between them became more and more distant, and they could not catch her for a while.

"Grunt."

Behind him, another nomadic barbarian roared angrily, and at this time, Zheng Quqi stagnated, turned his head around, and shot an arrow at the nomadic barbarian unexpectedly.

The three nomadic barbarians were frightened by her whole act, and their faces turned pale immediately, and they didn't know which one of them was unlucky enough to be shot by her, but in short, they didn't feel any pain in any part of their body.

Then, when their dazed heads finally calmed down, they realized that the arrow had only dangled past them, and had not hit any of them.

Suddenly, they all smiled smugly.

I think that the little man is just bluffing, pretending to be scary.

But in a second, blood splashed like raindrops into the eyes of the two people next to him.

Everything in front of them was like a black-and-white curtain that had slowed down, and the nomadic barbarian in the middle had arrows in his eyebrows, blood splattering from his wounds, and he fell to the ground on his back.

His death was exactly the same as the one before.

Ahead, Zheng Quqi's eyes were cold and calm, without a trace of waves, and she put on an arrow again......

It turned out that the blind shot of the previous arrow was just to complete the preparation for her next one-arrow killing.

She had the timing just right.

Plus extraordinary archery.

Now, she has finally waited for the best time to turn defeat into victory.

The two nomadic barbarians knew that the little man in front of them had an amazing archery skill, far superior to the eagle warriors of their clan, and then their faces finally had a look of fear.

With a howl, they tried to escape, but in the end they could not escape the fate of their accomplices.

After Zheng Quqi eliminated the four nomadic barbarians, there was no one to hinder her, and she finally reached Fengsui Duntai smoothly.

Taking out the fire fold, she lit the beacon pier, and when the rumbling black smoke rose into the sky, she sat on the ground with sore hands and feet.

Sweat wet all her forehead hair, her lips were white, and she was covered with a lot of mud, and she looked like she had suffered a great disaster.

She refused to let her mind recall the scenes of the murder just now, and only let herself try to move forward.

"Soon, soon, Yu Wensheng, they will come over......"

——

Garrison camp

Yu Wensheng was dressed in a heavy Huasen robe, lazy on the high seat, his eyes as deep as ghosts, staring at the man below.

At this time, he had already been tortured, and one of his palms was trampled on the ground by Wei Yao with a smile, and he fell to the ground covered in blood.

He struggled to raise his head, gritting only his teeth and calling a person's name.

"Yu, Wen, Sheng!"

When Wei Yao heard this, his eyes became gloomy: "It seems that you still haven't learned enough lessons." ”

To dare to be so presumptuous and call the name of the general is simply looking for death.

Click!

A wrist bone was crushed by Wei Yao with his toes, and the indescribable severe pain made his face turn white in an instant, and cold sweat plummeted.

Above, Yu Wensheng propped one elbow on the table, and the other hand slowly stroked the tiger skin on the armrest: "Yan, the Mo family's seven burials, his skills are good at crossbows, and his archery skills rank first among the seven burials?" ”

His whole body twitched slightly, and his eyelids, which he couldn't lift, drooped weakly, and then, the corners of his mouth sneered.

It seems that Yu Wensheng is not really so powerful.

They obviously didn't know that he was not the first person in archery.

At the beginning, it was only because Zheng Quqi was not trusted by the Mo family, even if she won in the end, she still found a nonsensical reason, unloaded her first, and was replaced by him.

Later, although some people had seen her crossbow skills, they only thought that she and him could be tied for the first place, and only he himself knew, he ...... Not as good as her.
