Chapter 163 Arrow Shooting Fang Baihua (for the helmsman Hummer Emperor Han Emperor Jiagen)
The south bank of the Yangtze River was already crowded with people, and a tsunami-like sound erupted in the sea of people, "Princess Divine Arrow!"
The ship that Bai Sheng was riding was the last one in the entire fleet, and it was just shot down by Fang Baihua and stranded in the middle of the river, about to become the prey of the Southern Army's naval army.
Although it has been out of the range of the archers on the enemy's shore, it is conceivable that once these sailors are bullied into the hull of the ship, at least it will be a fate of being scuttled through the bottom of the ship.
Bai Sheng walked to the side of the rattan player, opened a gap and looked at it, seeing that the flickering heads on the river were gradually approaching his boat, he turned around and instructed Jiang Jing: "It's really not good, I'll withdraw the rattan card later, and if you see it, use the abacus beads to hit me!"
Jiang Jing nodded when he heard this, and Wang Wenbin also took off the big bow from his body, ready to shoot the enemy with Jiang Jing, but unfortunately there were too few arrows on his body, and even if he hit a hundred shots, he couldn't kill many sailors.
Huang Shang tried his wind blade against the bulkhead of the ship, but unfortunately, Fan Rui's wind and rain once again diluted the aura on the river, and his wind blade technique still couldn't be used.
The only way out of the looming crisis is to raise the sails again.
At the top of the mast of the ferry, there is a fixed pulley that uses ropes to pull up the sails, which people in the Song Dynasty called the pulley, and earlier it was called "rope system", which is said to be one of the instruments invented by Mozi.
After the sail is pulled up, the end of the rope is tied under the mast so that the sail will not fall. But an arrow from Princess Hundred Flowers misses the rope that pulls the sail up.
The only way to re-raise the sail is to reconnect the broken part of the rope, which requires someone to climb up to the mast to connect the rope. Even if you change the rope, you also need to go up to the mast to pass the rope through the fixed pulley.
But it is obvious that if you want to go on the mast in this case, you will definitely become the target of Fang Baihua.
"I'll go!"
This "I'll go" is not the modern colloquial language spoken by Bai Sheng, but Pang Qiuxia is taking the initiative to ask for a mast rope.
"Are you crazy? Even if the princess recognizes you, she won't be merciful! I have reported the apostasy of you and Bai Qin, and she will definitely shoot you!" Pang Wanchun was anxious and resolutely stopped.
Bai Sheng couldn't bear to let Pang Qiuxia die for the sake of not Bai Qin's, so he grabbed Pang Qiuxia's arm, "Don't go!"
In the entanglement, he heard Huang Sheng sigh on the side, "Why doesn't it work?"
It turned out that in addition to the wind blade technique, he also had a hand of exorcism, and he used this technique to fight back against Fan Rui and his subordinates who attacked him in Mangdang Mountain, and to fight back the hidden weapon weapon.
If this exorcism technique can be used, it can use its divine sense combined with external aura to drive the rope to the top of the mast in the air. But just now he secretly tried it, but found that the exorcism technique also failed, so he was annoyed.
He didn't know, since the Wind Blade Technique couldn't be used, how could the Exorcism Technique be used? These two things were the things of the cultivators, and the things of the cultivators were not the most high-end things in the world.
Pang Qiuxia's attitude was extremely resolute, "Brother Qin, you let me go, my snake raccoon skill is the best at climbing poles, far better than gecko swimming on the wall, this risk is worth taking, otherwise everyone will not end well." ”
Speaking of this, he looked at Pang Wanchun again and said: "Brother, you don't want to think about it, if I don't go to tie the rope and raise the sail, the boat will be scuttled later, how can you survive if you fall into the water?"
Pang Wanchun had to admit that what Pang Qiuxia said made sense.
He was covered in arrow wounds, more than thirty places. Although he was fortunate to be rejuvenated by An Daoquan's skillful hands, if these wounds were soaked in river water, the consequences would be unpredictable. What's more, his body is extremely weak at the moment, and even if he is proficient in water, he can't swim hard.
"Okay then!" Bai Sheng finally made up his mind and said to Pang Qiuxia: "You can go, but you have to wait for me to cover you, if the cover is effective, you will not be too late to act." ”
Cover? What cover? How to cover? None of the people in the boat understood.
Bai Sheng took the big bow that was suspected to be two stones but better than two stones from Wang Wenbin's hand, and said in a desperate tone: "The rattan player will dodge a crack for me, I want to shoot a few arrows at this Baihua Princess!"
"Don't make a fuss, okay, it's a headwind now! At such a distance, unless you can shoot my dragon bow to the other side, do you think Fang Baihua, the sister of the dignified Holy Prince, will be a bird with a frightened bow?" Pang Wanchun dismissed Bai Sheng's idea.
Bai Sheng ignored Pang Wanchun, he visually measured that the distance from his ship to the south shore was more than 300 meters at most, this distance did not need Pang Wanchun's dragon bow at all, and Wang Wenbin's big bow that could shoot more than a mile away was also no problem.
In the midst of the crowd's doubts, he approached the rattan player at the stern of the boat, found the woman with the bow in pink on the shore through the crack in the rattan plaque, and retreated to the cabin.
"Listen, don't make this gap smaller!
In the eyes of everyone, I saw him draw three long arrows at the same time and sandwich them between the three fingers of his right hand, pose as a servant step, take an arrow and stretch his bow, and look up at the sky.
Seeing this, Pang Wanchun couldn't help but wonder: "Lianzhu arrows, you can learn quite decently! But what accuracy can you shoot like this?"
He was a master of archery, so he could naturally see that the bow in Bai Sheng's hand could reach the range, but he never thought that Bai Sheng's projectile could be accurate.
Even the feathered arrows he had suffered in the courtyard of the city were assumed to have been caused by thousands of feathered arrows fired at the same time, covering a large area around the courtyard where he was.
Bai Sheng ignored Pang Wanchun's questioning, adjusted the angle according to the data given by Jiang Jing, and held his breath to feel the interference caused by judging the south wind.
Suddenly, only two sounds of "buzz" and "whoosh" were heard, and the first arrow had already left the string and disappeared into the blue clear sky.
Everyone only had time to look up to look for the missing arrow feather, but they heard four consecutive "buzz" and "buzz" sounds, and then they saw two feathered arrows appear in succession and disappear instantly.
"The rate of fire is enough...... Pang Wanchun commented.
It's just that before Pang Wanchun finished speaking, Bai Sheng suddenly changed his backward step to a positive lunge, and at the same time pulled out the fourth long arrow from the quiver bag, and quickly opened the bow to shoot, this time he turned out to be a flat shot!
Everyone was immediately confused and messy, wouldn't it be shot on the rattan plaque if it was shot so flat?
However, the expected scene of the tip of the arrow hitting the rattan card did not appear, Bai Sheng's bow was released, the arrow in his hand had disappeared, and it seemed that it was shot out of the gap.
“...... Good archery!" Pang Wanchun couldn't help but praise loudly, what he was about to say just now was, "The rate of fire is enough, but unfortunately it is not accurate." But before the second half of the sentence could be spoken, he was shocked by an arrow shot by Bai Shengping.
Pang Wanchun is one of the top masters of archery in the world, and he is naturally a person who knows the goods. The so-called connoisseur knows if there is one as soon as he stretches out his hand, and he can't see Bai Sheng's throw, but the arrow shot flat in the crack of this rattan card shows Bai Sheng's excellent talent in archery!
Bai Sheng ignored Pang Wanchun's comments, quickly pulled out the fifth arrow and put it on the bowstring, and said at the same time: "Qiuxia, go quickly!"
Pang Qiuxia had already held the rope in her hand, waiting for Bai Sheng's order, and no matter where the four arrows he shot just now, he immediately jumped on the mast.
The mast of the river boat is not too high, but it is more than three feet.
As soon as she jumped into the body, she was five or six feet, and the person went to the upper half of the mast, and the strength of the vertical leap was exhausted, but when she saw her clapping her hands, grabbing her feet, kicking and wrapping her legs, a series of actions were completed in one go, and her body scurried up again, and then attached to the mast, really like a raccoon cat and snake, and continued to swim up quickly!
It was only said that Fang Baihua on the shore shot down the sail of the nearest ferry boat with an arrow, which caused the earth-shattering applause of the 100,000 southern troops.
Although she still thinks that the fly in the ointment is that the other ships are beyond her effective range and cannot accurately shoot the sail ropes, if nothing else, the enemy leader on this ship can also be captured and exchanged for hostages.
Just as he was about to order the soldiers in the water to bravely dig the boat and capture the enemy, he suddenly heard several sharp roars coming through the air, and the arrows attacked!
At this time, the wind direction on the riverside and on the river was southerly, and when Fang Baihua shot the enemy ship, it was a tailwind, but the sharp howl she heard was coming against the wind. This meant that by the time she heard the roar and judged that it was an enemy arrow, the incoming arrow was already in front of her.
Three feathered arrows fell from the sky in a row on the left, middle and right!
The arrow on the left should be fine if it hits a foot outside his left arm, the arrow on the right falls two feet outside his right arm, so there is no threat, and the third arrow in the middle looks like it will shoot a step behind him, and of course it will not hit him.
If there are really casualties, then the casualties can only be a few guards around me, is this a warning to me?
But in the blink of an eye, she didn't think so anymore, because she found that there was a fourth arrow whistling in front of her, and it was far more powerful than the first three arrows that fell in the air, and this was troublesome!
The trouble is that this fourth arrow cannot be dodged! Because the left and right back three directions are blocked by those three arrows, no matter where you hide, you will be hit by the arrow, although you may not die, but you will definitely be injured!
In a hurry, the only thing she could do was to transport the internal force, pour it into the strong bow in her hand, and block it with the bow arm, only to hear a loud "pop", and the bow arm infused with internal force was split into two pieces by the arrow.
The power of the long arrow was inexhaustible, and it hit the heart shield on her chest, making a soft "ding" sound, and then landed at her feet.
"Protect the princess!"
At this moment, I don't know how many people in the southern army shouted these words, but no one could stop the arrow that had just broken the bowstring, and it was only after that arrow that someone swarmed up and blocked in front of Fang Baihua.
As a result, the fifth whistling arrow only killed two guards, piercing the chest of the first guard and the latter one, killing two birds with one stone.
In this way, even if Fang Baihua was able to find another two-stone strong bow, she would not be able to continue shooting at the enemy ship, because the soldiers were protecting her while blocking her arrow route.
She watched as a person on the enemy ship climbed the mast, and with her ability to see the rope clearly, of course she could recognize that person as Pang Qiuxia.
Immediately a sail rose from the enemy ship, and Pang Qiuxia jumped off the top of the pole, only to be so angry that Fang Baihua bit her lip.
Suddenly, he thought of something, so he mobilized his internal force and shouted to the enemy ship: "Pang Wanchun! You don't have to hide, and you don't have to tell me that you didn't shoot these five arrows! I just need you to tell me, why do you want to apostate and join the enemy?"
