Chapter Ninety-Six: The Enemy Strikes

Juyong Pass is a fortress in the world, an important military town, as a barrier in North China, guarding the throat of the world, and has always been a place for soldiers to fight.

Since the rise of the little prince of Tatar, the border of the Ming Empire has been invaded south for a long time, and the border guards of the city will be miserable.

It is precisely because of the long-term turmoil that many people have moved hundreds of miles inward. Only those who look forward to staying away from Juyongguan, no one will be stupid enough to go out of the fortress and go to the barbarian land to die.

However, the two children are willing to risk the world's disapproval to get out, if this is known, they will definitely laugh off their big teeth, or scold these two children for being nervous.

Feng Mu is not sick, nor is the reckless Li Ermao, Li Ermao wants to kill a few more Mongolian soldiers to avenge his father, Feng Mu is in sympathy, he always has a feeling of empathy in it.

Born in troubled times, he may be able to live to the age of sixtieth birthday or ancient age, but in the end he will only be buried in the countryside and be an unknown person. As far as the country and the body are concerned, there is no achievement, so what is the point of God arranging for him to travel back to the Ming Dynasty?

Since you are here, you will make a career and live this experience again in vain. Feng Mu is unwilling to be mediocre, and he doesn't want to follow the villagers and live that kind of life in secret. At this moment, he has countless passionate pride in his heart, born as a man, and proud of himself on the battlefield, so as to live up to his entry into the world.

The two were driven back by the guards guarding the city, and just as they were grunting with hunger and about to look for something to eat, the general who defended the city saw them and ordered the soldiers to send some rations to the two orphans.

Feng Mu took the flatbread, took advantage of the soldier's inattention, took his right hand, and tripped his right foot, and threw the soldier out. Seeing this, another soldier raised his fist and was about to hit Feng Mu, but Li Ermao stood in front of Feng Mu, reacted faster, and punched the soldier in the stomach.

was punched by Xiao Manniu, the soldier was in pain, and he tried to fight back, Feng Mu made up for it in this gap, and the soldier was kicked to the ground. The two adult men were knocked down by children of several years old, and the eyes of the other soldiers erupted in loud laughter.

It seemed that they couldn't hold their faces, and the two of them got up and were about to make a move, but they were stopped by the generals who were defending the city, and looked at the two young children, but their skills were extraordinary, and the general ordered two soldiers to bring them to him.

"Yes, yes, they are all good seedlings for martial arts. Listening to the general nodding and praising the guard, Feng Mu arched his hand and said: "Report to the general, my relatives and Ermao were killed by the Mongolian soldiers, and the village was also burned down by them, please keep us in the army, we will go into battle to kill the enemy." ”

"Hahaha. The soldiers erupted in a sea of laughter, and the little hairy children who had not dried up wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy?

"Don't laugh. was violently reprimanded by the general guarding the gate, and the crowd suddenly quieted down. Looking at the two little ones, the general guarding the pass squatted down, touched Feng Mu's head, and said, "From today on, you stay in the army, learn martial arts diligently, and serve the empire in daily service." ”

The soldiers were dumbfounded, and seeing the general's hasty decision, they could only accept it silently.

Feng Mu and Li Ermao settled in Juyong in this way, and the general guarding the pass wanted to accept the two as their righteous sons, Li Ermao immediately knelt down and kowtowed, and met his father-in-law. However, Feng Mu said euphemistically: "There are family rules on the ancestors, and they are not allowed to recognize others as their fathers, and I hope the general will understand." ”

Seeing that Feng Mu was young, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, and he could still remember the family law of his ancestors, the general admired it very much in his heart, but it was not convenient to force him. Moreover, although Li Ermao lacks scheming in dealing with people, he can be brute force, and he can be a manufacturable material.

The days at the border pass are very hard, from time to time to beware of the enemy to come to intrude, Feng Mu, who lives in the barracks, is not as active as Li Ermao, for some of the generals around him to teach the bow and horse riding and shooting, Li Ermao is so excited that he dances with his hands, even if he sleeps at night, he is in the posture of opening a bow and arrows, riding a horse to kill the enemy.

And Feng Mu just studied calmly, and did not show too much enthusiasm, after Li Ermao fell asleep, he still had to sit at the head of the bed, sitting cross-legged, and practicing internal strength.

Over the past few days, Feng Mu felt that his breath had become more and more smooth, and the cycle of running his internal force for a small week was gradually extending. This does not mean that his comprehension has regressed, on the contrary, it is precisely because of the gradual improvement of his internal force that his fragile body now needs more time to digest.

The horn sounded, and on this moonless night, the sky was lit up by rockets fired by the enemy. The soldiers patrolling the city immediately spotted the incoming enemy, immediately blew the horn, and the soldiers were fully armed and ready for battle.

The vanguard of the Mongols had more than a few hundred horsemen, all of them lightly armed and fast, armed with crossbow scimitars, and under the cover of the flank firelight, they appeared under the city walls with lightning speed.

The soldiers guarding the city, under the supervision of the general himself, were full of morale, and they kept using bows and arrows to stop the siege soldiers behind. And against the vanguard light cavalry, it was countless stone fire pots thrown down.

Many of the Mongol pioneers were smashed to the point of bursting their brains or set on fire, but even then, as if they were going mad, they kept climbing the walls through the hooks on the chains. In order to cover the vanguard of the siege, the bows and crossbows on the Mongol side were more powerful and domineering, and the Ming soldiers who were shot were nine out of ten dead.

Woken up by this loud killing sound, Li Ermao took off a bow on the wall and was about to run outside. After a period of training, he was able to shoot a bow of dozens of kilograms, although there was still a long gap compared to those strong generals who could draw three or four hundred catties of bows, but it was enough to kill the enemy at close range.

Before he was about to rush out of the barracks, Feng Mu grabbed him and said in his ear: "Don't rush to kill the enemy, I have an idea, do you want to attack the rear of the Tartars and kill them by surprise." ”

Li Ermao shook his head and said: "If you want to kill, you will have an open and honest competition, and if you hide and hide, even if you kill a few more people, it will not be happy." ”

Looking at this Li Ermao, who had a straightforward personality, Feng Mu was a little helpless, the other party didn't go to the road at all, so he could only pull him hard, and said as he walked: "I want to go around to the enemy's rear to raid, but I need your help, can I help a word." ”

Watching Feng Mu untie the reins of the war horse, Li Ermao replied cheerfully: "Help." ”

Then the two children, when the adults were too busy to take care of them, galloped off the path to each other's horse caravan.

The bow and crossbow in Li Ermao's hand was very small, and the general specially found someone to customize it in order to teach him to ride and shoot. In addition to this, he has a short knife.

And Feng Mu's weapon is a hidden blade, which is very small, for which Li Ermao sarcastically said that it was used for embroidery by girls, Feng Mu did not refute, this hidden blade was accidentally seen by him from an ancient book, so he asked the general to send someone to help him create one.

Although it is not as good as the divine sword "Yuzang Sword", it also has the same effect, and Feng Mu decided to use it to become famous.
