The sky has turned dark, the moon is high in the sky, the forest is quiet, and the surrounding fields are quiet.
Li Chengzhong took out the dry food and water bag, took a few mouthfuls, and inadvertently raised his eyes to see the woman looking at him. He was a little confused, and he didn't know why the woman was staring at him. He took two more mouthfuls, and felt uncomfortable being stared at by the woman.
Suddenly, he woke up from embarrassment. He took out a piece of bread from his bag and handed it to the other party.
The woman took it without being polite. She ate it in big gulps and stared at Li Chengzhong's water bag. Li Chengzhong hurriedly handed the water bag over again and said with a smile: "You said you, you don't bring anything to eat when you go out."
…”
The woman didn't show any pretense of her daughter's family. She casually wiped the mouth of the bag with the lapel of her clothes, raised her neck and drank a few sips of water, and said: "Everything is at my companion's place..." However, she revealed a section of snow-white neck, which showed that she had never seen two people before.
Li Cheng, who had touched a woman, was heartbroken.
After trying hard to calm down, Li Chengzhong asked: "Where is your companion?"
"We were intercepted by the Khitans on the road, and all our companions died in the battle..."
Li Chengzhong suddenly didn't know what to say. When he saw the woman sitting against a tree, he also sat down under the tree next to her.
"I don't know what you're doing..." Li Chengzhong was at a loss for words.
"I am Xi Ren." the woman said.
"You can also have night vision?"
"Um."
"Oh... you speak Chinese very well..." Li Chengzhong continued to find something to say.
"My mother is Han Chinese."
"Uh... you ridiculing women also want to come out to fight?"
"The Khitan people have been very strong in recent years. We Xi people have fought many times, but we can't defeat them. Dingkou has been robbed a lot... Anyone who can use swords and guns must come out to fight. If we don't fight, the entire Xi people will be destroyed."
They must surrender and become slaves of the Khitans." The woman said calmly, as if she was talking about other people's affairs.
However, Li Chengzhong heard the deep hatred in his faint words and couldn't help but remain silent. After a long time, Fang said: "We Han people were also plundered badly by the Khitans. It's a pity that we suffered too heavy losses in the southern expedition, otherwise the Khitans would not
So arrogant."
The woman nodded and said: "I heard... I hope you will recover soon. If you are not Han, then we Xi people will have no chance... No matter what, we Xi people will not give in, no one is willing to do it
Slave of the Khitans!" As if to firm up her tone, she frowned and waved her arms.
At this moment, the moonlight shone on the woman's tall nose, giving it a silvery glow. Li Chengzhong was stunned and speechless.
A slight sound of horse hooves from far away woke up Li Chengzhong from his immersed mind. He climbed up the treetop and looked towards the place where the horses hooves sounded. He saw a torch lighting up in the distance, slowly coming towards the woods. The sound of horse hooves
It gradually became clearer. After listening carefully, it seemed that there was more than one person. He quickly got down from the tree and whispered to the woman: "Someone is coming...could it be your companion?"
The woman frowned and said: "The four of them are not my companions. My companions were all killed in the battle. Are they not from your Lulong Army?"
Li Chengzhong smiled bitterly: "We... uh... won't ride out for a walk at night." Although Wang Dalang was ordered to form a scout team, it would never be possible to complete it in such a short time and go out on patrol at night.
Dignity, he was a little ashamed that he didn't have any cavalry, so he quickly changed the subject: "How did you know there were four people?"
The woman said casually: "What I heard...can't you hear it? You, a scout, are really..." As she spoke, she took off the knife from the horse, then took the bow, fastened the arrow, and hid it in a tree.
back.
Li Chengzhong, who didn't want to be despised by a woman, was still despised. He was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to talk nonsense. He went over and led the two horses to a distant place where they couldn't be seen. Then he came back and said hello to the woman and pointed upward.
, said: "I'll go up there, and you'll shoot down the torch later. I'll fight them, and you shoot at the outside with arrows..." As he said this, he slipped up to a tree and was hidden among the branches and leaves.
The woods were very small, and the tree he chose was facing the direction those people were coming from. If those people really entered the woods, they would most likely pass under the tree.
Seeing that the torch finally came to the edge of the woods, Li Chengzhong heard a few people saying something by the woods. He couldn't understand what they meant, but it sounded like it was Khitan language, so he couldn't help tightening the knife in his hand.
Since Li Chengzhong joined the Lu Long Army, he has fought in so many battles, large and small, and has fought with people face to face, and has had countless lives on his hands. Although he does not have any sword skills inherited from his family, he has not practiced anything seriously.
Martial arts, but with the advantages of being tall and strong, having good nutrition before crossing, and the simple hand-to-hand combat and stabbing skills practiced in the army, in this era, one or two people can not get close to each other, and three or four people can be defeated
He was not afraid of the fight at all. When he saw that the four Khitan cavalry finally came in, he calmed down a little. He made a sneak attack on the tree, and with the woman's arrows to interfere, the chance of victory was not small.
Four Khitan cavalry carefully rode into the woods. The leading one held a torch in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. The three behind them also held swords and guns, and carried bows and arrows on their backs. They did not need to pull the reins, and relied on the strength of their legs to control the speed and movement of the horses.
Direction, showing superb riding skills.
Li Chengzhong held his breath and saw the leading Khitan cavalry passing under his tree. He thought to himself: "Shoot an arrow!" But he didn't see the woman's arrow being fired. The second cavalry also passed by, but the woman hadn't fired her arrow yet. Li Chengzhong
He was a little anxious. He didn't know why the woman didn't fire an arrow, and he kept urging him. The third cavalry passed under the tree, but the woman still didn't fire an arrow. It wasn't until the fourth Khitan cavalry came under the tree that Li Chengzhong heard a "whoosh" sound.
Sound softly.
The arrow was shot extremely accurately. At first the first cavalryman staggered on his horse, and then fell down on his back. Li Chengzhong vaguely saw an arrow stuck in his throat when he fell on his back. The torch in his hand also
Falling to the ground, the surroundings suddenly became dark.
The remaining three Khitan cavalry screamed. With the remaining light of the torches on the ground, Li Chengzhong saw the right moment and pounced down, knocking off the Khitan cavalry who was walking at the rear. The Khitan cavalry was knocked down from his horse.
On the ground, a strong man like Li Chengzhong was pressed against him again, and he suddenly lost his breath. Li Chengzhong raised the knife and slashed it on his neck. The Khitan cavalry immediately stopped without even a grunt.
The two remaining riders in front heard the noise and muttered a few words. The first one ran towards the place where the arrow came from, while the latter one turned his horse's head and rushed towards Li Chengzhong. It was impossible to pick up the horse's speed in the woods.
Li Chengzhong easily escaped, and the Khitan cavalryman turned his horse around again, only to see Li Chengzhong circling with him behind a tree.
The Khitan cavalry slashed twice with their swords, but Li Chengzhong dodged them both. Li Chengzhong also took advantage of this gap to gradually approach the horses. The cavalry was entangled on the ground by the infantry. How could this be better? At this time, the Khitan cavalry wanted to
There was no chance to dismount, so he had no choice but to wave the saber in his hand at Li Chengzhong. Li Chengzhong saw the right opportunity and ducked in, grabbed the cavalryman's saber-wielding arm, and pulled him hard. The cavalryman was pulled hard and fell unconscious.
He fell down from his horse, but one of his feet was caught in a stirrup and could not escape. He was stabbed several times by Li Chengzhong and died on the spot.
Li Chengzhong dragged him off the stirrup, jumped on the horse and chased in the direction where the woman was hiding. He heard the sound of shouting and fighting, and felt anxious in his heart. After he rounded a few trees, he saw the woman chasing him.
The Khitan cavalry has dismounted and is fighting with the woman. After all, the woman is a girl. Although her bow and arrow are extremely accurate, she is not as powerful as the sturdy Khitan cavalry in a single fight. She is already exhausted and wears a felt hat.
It fell to the ground, and its long hair spread out. The Khitan cavalry slashed it with a sword-like chop, and retreated in confusion.
Although Li Chengzhong could ride a horse, he could not ride and shoot, let alone horseback kung fu. He rushed to the edge of the battle group, jumped off his horse, and rushed towards the Khitan cavalry. The Khitan cavalry abandoned the woman and turned around to face Li Chengzhong's sword attack.
He came over and the two knives intersected. Li Cheng was shocked and almost couldn't hold the knife in his hand. He couldn't help being surprised: "What a huge brute force!"
Li Cheng was surprised in the center, but he didn't hesitate on his feet. According to the close combat skills taught by the troops before time travel, he raised his leg and kicked it. The fighting techniques of modern troops are not so showy, they can be as cruel as they want, and those dirty tricks in ancient boxing
All of his moves are regarded as classics in modern army combat boxing. His kick was very abrupt, and he made a sneak attack in the poor light. The Khitan man couldn't see clearly in the dark and was defenseless.
Just as he was being kicked in the vital part, his whole body froze, and an extremely unpleasant muffled sound came from his abdomen, as if his mouth was covered when he screamed.
Li Chengzhong casually knocked the knife out of his hand, pinched his arms, twisted them, and pushed his knees. The Khitan cavalry had no resistance and lay on the ground groaning, but kept kicking the ground with his feet.
But he did not resist, just to vent the pain in the vital parts of his lower body. Li Chengzhong himself was a little frightened when he saw it, and he subconsciously shrank his little brother...
Li Chengzhong looked back at the woman. The look in the woman's eyes towards Li Chengzhong also changed a little, but he couldn't tell whether it was getting better or worse. Li Chengzhong didn't care about that and asked, "Can you speak Khitan?"
The woman nodded, walked over, and asked a few questions to the Khitan cavalry lying on the ground, but the Khitan cavalry was still in pain and could not speak. Li Chengzhong had no choice but to ask the woman to find a harness for the Khitan cavalry's mount.
Ma Suo tied the Khitan cavalry to a tree. He then went to pick up the torch that had fallen to the ground but was still not extinguished, and stuck it aside to illuminate.
Under the firelight, the Khitan cavalry's face was full of pain, and big beads of sweat dripped from his forehead.
Obviously, he couldn't ask questions at this time, so Li Chengzhong and the woman were waiting aside. The woman glanced at the Khitan cavalry in pain, then glanced at Li Chengzhong, suddenly her face turned red, and said: "Good tactics, you Lu Longjun are pretty good
Can fight..."
Li Chengzhong coughed dryly and changed the subject: "The little lady's archery skills are good, especially the timing of archery is very good. But it is too dangerous..." He had already figured it out. This woman just wanted to kill the last one for him.
The Khitan cavalryman created the best opportunity and waited until the end to release the arrow. However, this also brought him a lot of trouble. If Li Chengzhong had not arrived earlier, he would have died under the knife of the Khitan cavalryman.
The woman said: "Of course we have to fight the enemy together. There is no reason for you to fight the enemy alone. A little danger is nothing." She said it very lightly and naturally, but there was a sense of heroic spirit from the daughter's family in it.
.
After waiting for a while, the Khitan cavalryman seemed to have regained his breath, and the woman began to ask questions in Khitan dialect. At first, the Khitan cavalryman kept his eyes closed, but after being slightly punished by Li Chengzhong using several underhanded tactics,
He finally spoke, and while answering the woman's questions, he looked at Li Chengzhong from time to time in fear.
Li Chengzhong listened to them chattering there for a long time, but he couldn't understand it, so he sat aside and carefully looked at the woman in front of him. Under the soft firelight, the woman's profile under the long hair looked particularly beautiful.
