Otherworldly Chapter 46: The Forest Attacked

The convoy entered Changshui Town before dark. Wanjian Commercial Building has its own utensils shop and house here, everyone does not need to stay in the guest house, more than 200 people all live in their own courtyard, just a few people to squeeze into a room. Because of his relatively high position, Su You lives in a room with Baishan. After a day's journey, everyone went to rest early after eating.

Su You and Bai Shan went to visit Lord Sun. The father and daughter were chatting together, and Su You roughly talked about the fight with Shang Yunhu a few days ago, he didn't say that he defeated Shang Yunhu, only that he was pursued by the other party and escaped back to the commercial building by luck. Then he said: "I heard Shang Yunhu say that it was his master Xi Zuping who kept an eye on me and the little white wolf with their senior brothers, and wanted to wait for the opportunity to arrest Xiaobai." Xi Zuping should know Xiaobai's origin, so he will covet it. I'm afraid they'll send someone after me if they don't give up, so we'll have to be careful. ”

Sun Chongyuan's father and daughter both showed a look of attention, and Sun Chongyuan said with a solemn face: "Well, during the banquet, I also noticed that Xi Zuping pretended to look at Xiaobai inadvertently. I didn't take it to heart at the time, but now that I think about it, although he covered it up well, he really cared about Xiaobai. Before leaving, the county lord of Weiqi came to see Tianze, and our little soul knife door will be unfavorable to us, and if you say so, it is very possible, we must be vigilant. ”

Su You and Bai Shan glanced at each other, it turned out that the owner of the Sun Mansion had already gotten the news, so he was relieved.

Sun Xiuyun asked, "Su You! You went to the City Lord's Mansion with the team to deliver the goods that day, why did you come back alone? On the way back, you were chased by Shang Yunhu, why was Shang Yunhu the only one who shot and let you escape? ”

Su You had to explain in detail: "On the way back, I wanted to enjoy the scenery of Moon Lake, so I didn't return with the others." met Xi Yunlong, Shang Yunhu and Miss Yao on the shore of Moon Lake, Xi Yunlong should have Miss Yao by his side, and he couldn't pull away to chase me. ”

Sun Xiuyun furrowed her brows, how could Sister Weiqi walk with Xi Yunlong? She should know what her brother thinks about her. Said: "Father! Did you say that Lord Yao did this in order to entrap Xi Yunlong? At the same time, they showed favor to our Sun clan, and this time they specially came to report the news, if we have a conflict with the Spirit Sword Sect, what benefits will the Yao City Lord get? ”

Sun Chongyuan pondered for a moment and said: "City Lord Yao is probably not sure of Xi Zuping's true thoughts, and I don't believe that Xi Zuping dared to sneak attack our convoy on the road, but now I think this is very likely." Xi Zuping didn't talk about creating a new knife that day, but just ordered five hundred Genghu knives at random, and he should have other ideas. If Xi Zuping wants to secretly disadvantage us, then this is indeed a good opportunity, but since we know in advance, how can he succeed. ”

Sun Chongyuan looked at Su You and said gently: "Whether he Xi Zuping covets your little white wolf or wants to make a move on my Sun clan, we will not give up." If he doesn't come this time, he will make him pay the price. Let me tell you again, after being reminded by Lord Yao, I specially arranged for fifty good men to follow behind the convoy. Xi Zuping dares to come, and we will teach him a painful lesson. ”

Su You Baishan was overjoyed, it turned out that the landlord had already prepared.

Sun Xiuyun suddenly looked at the boots under the feet of the two, "Your shoes are quite interesting, are they made of fur?" ”

Su You preemptively said: "Yes! This is what Bai Shan came up with, using alpine goat skin for the boot upper, roe cowhide for the sole of the boots, warm and comfortable to wear, but also waterproof, let Bai Shan make you a pair of women's leather boots in the future. That's right! There is a mezzanine inside this boot, which can hide a short sword, and I was able to get out of it by sneaking up on Shang Yunhu with a small white blade before. ”

Bai Shan was both happy and worried when he heard Brother Su push the idea of leather boots on his head. He didn't dare to answer, so he nodded pretendically.

Sun Xiuyun immediately smiled, thinking that he was very fond of leather boots, and at the same time he had a high opinion of Bai Shan. She thought of it before setting off, and couldn't help but ask Ji Zhaorong if she was interested in Baishan? At that time, Zhaorong's eyes widened, and it suddenly dawned on her that her behavior in the council hall had caused others to have a sense of righteousness. She tried her best to defend that it was because she couldn't go to the imperial capital with the young lady at that time, and then she did recognize Bai Shan's talent in weaving and clothing, but she just wanted to exchange this knowledge with him more, and she didn't ...... him at all.

Sun Xiuyun sighed, and felt that she didn't mind that she really had that kind of idea because she didn't mind being like a sister, and it seemed that it was not bad. I didn't continue to listen to Ji Zhaorong's endless defenses. She couldn't help but show a weird smile on her face, which made Bai Shan, who was staring at her, feel a little hairy.

On the afternoon of the second day, a team of 200 knights, heavily armed, arrived at the village in front of the mountain. Sun Chongyuan also secretly deployed thirty sturdy guards who were familiar with the surrounding environment in the Ten Thousand Blades Weapon Shop in Changshui Town, and asked them to act as scouts and go to the front to explore the way to prevent the enemy from ambushing.

Sun Chongyuan, Sun Xiuyun, Su You, Bai Shan, Zhao Guang, Xiao Qiang, and several guard leaders sat in a farmhouse in front of the village to discuss things.

Zhao Guangdao: "Looking at it this way, if the Spirit Sword Gate wants to do it, it should be to choose the Moon Mountain and Forest." As long as they lie in ambush at the dangerous places we must pass through, and are caught off guard, they may indeed be able to be captured. In this way, it can also be guessed that they should not have many people, so they will choose to sneak attack in the forest. We prepare more bows and long weapons, and then send hunters to find out the location of the opponents, and if we can find their hiding place in advance, we can give them a counterattack. ”

Zhao Guang's analysis not only has both offense and defense, but also seems to have implicit expectations for the next possible battle, and he is a brave and belligerent person.

Sun Chongyuan thought for a moment, felt that Zhao Guang's analysis coincided with his thoughts, and seeing that others were also praised, he nodded and said, "That's it." Zhao Guang and Xiao Qiang, you have assigned the personnel, arranged it, we are in the middle, and if the Spirit Dao Gate does not come, it will be enough, and if they come, they will not be able to go back. Rest well tonight, do what you plan tomorrow, and slow down. Once you find the enemy's traces, be careful to report them, especially the enemy's fire attack. Everyone was ordered to leave, and Zhao Xiao and the others went to inform the knights and guards to rest as soon as possible.

Nothing happened overnight. On the erection day, the convoy slowly drove into the Moon Mountain. The road narrows but is still large enough for a convoy of horses. The trees in the forest are thick with the birds, and the sound of animals moving in the forest can be heard from time to time.

Su You released his divine sense, trying to catch the moving animals, and the surrounding scenery immediately became clear, flowers, trees, and even reptiles on the ground appeared in the divine sense sensing network, but the range was only about ten zhang. As he rode his horse, he swept through the jungle as he passed, occasionally spotting small animals passing by.

Most of the other guards had walked this way, they didn't have much curiosity about the flora and fauna in the forest, and they all knew that there might be an ambush ahead, so they all raised their spirits and stayed vigilant! The team walked slowly, and it was deliberately elongated to prevent it from being surrounded by the enemy. There are heavily armored knights guarding the front and back, left and right, and the scouts are constantly passing on information, and everything is normal.

At noon, the team chose to rest and eat on a higher slope. The convoy of more than ten zhang was stationed in the Lishou band in an orderly manner, and the first and last teams watched and helped each other.

Rinnai was quiet. Speculating that danger might appear at night, the crowd ate with peace of mind. Su You and Bai Shan sat down on a rock, stretching their legs comfortably and soothing the stiff limbs of a long horseback ride. Su You wondered why he hadn't heard any birdsong, and was about to get up and look into the distance. At this moment, a sharp chirp sounded, three short and one long.

Zhao Guang's face changed, and he stood up and said: "There is news from the scouts in front that there is a strange team approaching our side, and everyone is preparing to meet the enemy. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the same three short and one long chirps came from behind him. The knights knew that the enemy attack was finally coming!

The enemy chose to attack while the team was resting and eating, just to take the crowd by surprise when they were hungry and relaxed. There must be people among the enemies who know human nature well, and it is really surprising to choose noon instead of night, as everyone guessed. If they hadn't taken precautions, the convoy would have been dangerous, but fortunately they had been prepared and defended from high ground.

In the distance, there was the sound of fast-running footsteps and horses' hooves. The figure of the enemy jumped from far and near in the forest. The team was on a high position, and they could see far away, and they saw the black-clad and masked enemy cavalry disappearing from time to time among the trees, covering the convoy. Even when the enemy is running at high speed, he shows a vigorous posture. Through the forest and trees, in a few blinks of an eye, nearly 100 horses rushed to the front.

The knight of the guard, who was hiding behind the tree, appeared at the command of the leader and launched an arrow attack on the enemy. The arrows broke through the air, and the terrible snort of people falling to the ground with arrows sounded. The enemy did not panic, and they all hid behind the trees, and continued to advance under the cover of the trees.

The second and third groups of knights shot bows and arrows, but the harvest was not as great as the first. The enemy is on guard, and it is difficult for the arrows to make a difference, but there are still several enemy arrows.

The enemy's running slowed down, and some of them dismounted, cautiously pushing up the slope. It didn't take long for both sides to see each other clearly. The enemy also carried bows and arrows and shot arrows at the cavalry on the slope to counterattack, and the other enemies rushed forward under cover, and dozens of enemies had already come to the convoy ten feet.

Sun Chongyuan looked at the back of the team, where the shouting and killing were boiling, and more than 100 enemies violently attacked the team, and the two sides soon met in close combat. Unexpectedly, there are two hundred people in the Spirit Dao Sect together. Fortunately, he arranged 50 good hands, and temporarily transferred 30 people to the long water shop. These 80 people will be the key to this victory.

The guards arranged improvised stumbling ropes in the hidden positions in front of the convoy, and the enemy cavalry who rushed to the front of the convoy tripped one after another, causing a commotion, and the archers took the opportunity to shoot the fallen enemy. Rows of archers alternate archery, retreat, substitution, and methodically shoot at the enemy. The enemy is agile, quickly abandons his horse and scatters, uses trees to dodge arrows, and rushes forward, all of whom are well-trained.

The enemy also retaliates with bows and arrows or darts, but because they are moving fast, they cannot grasp the line, and their damage to us is limited.

After a few rounds of arrow rain, the two sides exchanged troops at close range, and the enemy let out a boiling howl, and rushed to kill without fear of death, which was to fight a quick battle.

The 10,000-bladed archers retreated, and the guards with long weapons stepped forward to stab the black-clad enemy at the front. They had a condescending advantage, and as soon as they engaged, they picked and killed more than a dozen enemies. All the guards were in groups of more than a dozen people, condensing into a force to block the enemy. When the enemy attacks too hard, they retreat, narrowing their defenses and preventing them from breaking through.

Both sides have high morale, and everyone is brave and good at fighting, and it is difficult to solve the killing.

The number of people on both sides was equal, but the 10,000-bladed team was relatively long, and the enemy could not form a joint encirclement, and it could not be attacked for a long time. Ten Thousand Blades has to deal with two battlefields at the same time, and it is also impossible to give full play to the numerical advantage. The two sides clashed fiercely, and the shouts of killing had resounded through the forest.

Zhao Guang is behind, Xiao Qiang is in front, Sun Chongyuan is in the middle of the command, and the responsibility is to observe the form and give orders. At this time, there was a shout, and the guards immediately fought and retreated, closing the defensive line.

At this time, there was also a rapid sound from the top of the slope, and after a few breaths, dozens of black-clothed people appeared from the top of the slope and rushed to the defensive convoy condescendingly.

How can it be? Not only did the enemy have manpower, but they were also able to climb over the hill and take it down from the top of the hill.

These dozens of people are even more superb, and they scream and kill. The Ten Thousand Blades team was immediately attacked on three sides, and the total number of enemies was close to three hundred!

Zhao Guang in the rear was shocked, he couldn't figure out how the Spirit Sword Sect could gather as many as three hundred people in a short period of time! Ten thousand blades are no longer superior in numbers. Now one can only count on fifty good men who are at the back of the ranks, these people are absolutely impossible for the enemy to think of. If these people can sneak up on the enemy in the rear and form a flank attack with the rear guard, it will definitely work wonders. As long as this force of more than 100 enemies is defeated, the enemy in front and on the flank will no longer be a threat, and this battle will be won.

Su You looked at the enemy who appeared from the top of the slope, dozens of people in blue and black suits. None of them wore armor, and these people were the main force of the enemy. I only heard the leader shouting: "Brothers! Rush me, robbed of this fat sheep will be rewarded, if you want silver, you want a woman! ”

Fortunately, the archers in ambush had already shot dozens of them.

The two sides were close to each other, and the enemy stretched out their hands to remove the arrows with their weapons, and the bows and arrows were already difficult to achieve, and the archers abandoned their bows and changed their swords.

Zhao Guang and Xiao Qiang each led the battlefield on one side and commanded the team to rush and kill. The Long Weapon Escort Regiment performed excellently, withstanding waves of enemy attacks. The heavily armored knights appeared, and a dozen heavy cavalry and a dozen light cavalry cooperated to charge and kill the enemy team in front and behind. The heavy cavalry was responsible for breaking up the enemy, and the light cavalry took the opportunity to kill the lone man, killing the enemy in all directions. The cavalry fought to the low slope and then turned back, and so on and so forth.

The guards in the middle used their wagons to resist the enemy masters who rushed down from the top of the slope. The enemy crosses the carriage and kills the guards, who begin to suffer rapid casualties.

Sun Chongyuan showed a strong strength, and the divine sense of the divine realm made the enemies around him move slowly, and the coiling dragon knife was like a dragon going out to sea, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and the sword could reach the outside of the zhang. If there is a real sword, the one who is in the middle will be killed immediately. He kills an enemy with every blow, and several enemies quickly fall around him. The other enemies scattered in fright, not daring to pick up their sharpness.

A figure flashed close like a ghost, and a long sword silently smashed into his right rib from the side, and the long sword began to shoot out waves of sword qi, sizzling like a snake letter. Sun Chongyuan was stunned and shouted in a low voice: "Rat Xi Zuping, hide your head and show your tail!" ”

Taking advantage of the fact that he was stunned when he was called to reveal his identity, Sun Chongyuan turned around and slashed at the long sword, but it did not make a dull symphony, just a slight crisp sound, and the half-foot sword tip had been cut off by the coiling dragon knife.

Xi Zuping was shocked, although he abandoned the sword and used the sword, but the sword is not ordinary, how could it be cut off so easily, what kind of knife is this?

He was also surprised that Sun Chongyuan abandoned the sword and used the knife, which was the opposite of him. He didn't dare to touch the knife with a sword for a while, and changed to a delicate water swordsmanship, wanting to overcome rigidity with softness.

The sword skills of the two sides clashed, and the vitality was agitated for a while, and the people around did not dare to approach, and the scene of the master fighting in the later stage of the movement was really amazing.

Bai Shan turned the sword spears connected together into a red spear, forcing away the enemies in close proximity, grabbing Sun Xiuyun's side, and joining forces with her to fight the enemy. Both of them used the strongest chrome alloy weapons, although it was the first time to cooperate, it was indeed very tacit, and the characteristics of the weapons were brought into full play. When the enemy touched the iron blades of the two men, they were immediately wounded by their swords, and soon several fell at their feet, and the enemy was terrified and fled.

Su You's side did encounter the biggest crisis in his life. Three black-clothed masked men with an imposing momentum attacked him and Xiao Bai at the same time, and Su You immediately recognized one of them as Xi Yunlong from the other party's eyes.

He was shocked in his heart, just Xi Yunlong alone, he was not an opponent, not to mention that there were two masters with inferior strength who were surrounded and killed at the same time.

The closest to Su You was Xi Yunlong, less than ten steps away. The second and third men pounced on him from the side, and the farthest third man was only twenty paces away from him.

Su Youli is in danger!
