A dozen people rushed out of the crowd, but they were extremely vicious. No matter who was in front of them, they would be slashed with a knife.
In a moment, a piece of the ground had fallen, and blood was flowing everywhere. Some of them were injured but not dead, and they screamed lifelessly.
Everyone in the Xiaoqi camp was caught off guard by the surprise attack. They never expected that someone actually launched an attack in the market. And they were very cold-blooded, with no regard for the life and death of the people. Fortunately, they were all veterans, and they never lacked for improvisation and relied on horses to block the enemy.
, wandering around and fighting with it.
But at this moment, a sharp roar suddenly sounded, which made everyone's scalp numb and they subconsciously fell to the ground to avoid it.
Anyone who has been on the battlefield knows that these are arrows fired from a hard bow. The arrows are like lightning, powerful and heavy. When you hear the sound and try to avoid it, it is already too late.
With a "bang" sound, a veteran was hit by an arrow in the shoulder and flew out instantly.
The arrow's remaining power carried him straight forward for more than half a foot before it was heavily nailed to the ground. The veteran's shoulder and half of his chest were torn open with a hand-sized crack, and blood spurted out. He was not dead for the time being.
But he was pinned to the ground by a big arrow and could not struggle.
"Fuck." He Wu'er cursed, jumped up, and slashed at the enemy close to him with his sword. Not only him, but all the veterans of the Xiaoqi Battalion were red-eyed and rushed towards the enemy with their swords.
"Bang." The bowstring banged, and another arrow shot straight at He Wu'er.
This arrow did not have the momentum of the previous one, it was just an ordinary stone bow. The speed was slower and the force was much smaller. He Wuer was fighting with the enemy when he heard wind blowing from the back of his head. He wrapped his head with a knife and just missed the arrow.
Arrow, spin around and slash down. The sword flashes across the enemy's neck.
The big man on the other side looked unwilling and fell to the ground with his hands covering his neck. He twitched twice and stopped moving.
The enemy made a cold attack with two arrows, but their positions were also exposed. They were on the second floor on both sides. One on the left and one on the right, they suppressed everyone in the Xiaoqi camp. The number of Xiaoqi battalions was not advantageous, and they were suppressed by the archers and distracted from the enemy.
Danger is everywhere at the moment. If this continues, the entire Xiaoqi camp will be wiped out.
"Kill him." The old ghost pierced the enemy with his knife, turned his head and shouted ferociously.
With an archer on your side, it's really like a light on your back. Now you're stuck in the middle of the street, helpless and just a target.
He Wuer rolled over and was about to get up and go upstairs, but the enemy refused to let him go. He chased him and stabbed him in the back. As a last resort, He Wuer fought with the enemy again. When the two sides met, the number of enemies increased again.
However, seeing how brave he was, the two enemies joined forces to fight him.
"Bang." The bow string banged. He Wuer was startled and his footwork was confused.
The enemy saw the opportunity and immediately moved up and down to separate He Wu'er's upper and lower plates. This is a very tricky way of playing. Double-knife attack makes it difficult for people to worry about the upper side and the lower side, which will cost their lives. He Wu'er has been on the battlefield for a long time.
How can you not know how powerful it is? Of course there are corresponding ways to break it.
With a sharp look, he handed the knife to his left hand in an instant, and thrust it downwards, facing the knife's downward direction. His right hand parted and thrust forward like lightning, as if he was forcing his palm into the opponent's blade. It was almost a collision.
When he arrived, he suddenly turned his wrist and grabbed the opponent's knife back.
This hand is used with bare hands, and the execution is exquisite. If there is a slight difference, the hand may be cut off. If you can't catch it, your chest will be wide open, but it will give the enemy a chance to kill. Danger after danger.
In the meantime, He Wuer followed the trend, and the enemy's sword lost control and actually stabbed his companion.
Just as the enemy hurriedly retreated, He Wu'er's left-hand knife flew up and lightly slashed across the opponent's neck.
The enemy's body suddenly froze, with a look of disbelief in his eyes, and he slowly fell to the ground.
The other enemy was stunned for a moment, shocked by He Wu'er's methods. Not wanting to be distracted for a moment, He Wu'er had already handed the knife to his right hand, took advantage of the situation, and then disemboweled the enemy from bottom to top. In the enemy's eyes, finally
I have fear, but I can no longer hold on to the lost life.
Although He Wuer killed two people in a row, he was unable to stop his own decline. The enemy came suddenly, and their number was nearly twice as many. The key is that this group of people killed decisively, were cold-blooded and ruthless, but also highly skilled in martial arts. In addition, the archers were among the most powerful.
Gao Ce responded, and in just a moment, five people from the Xiaoqi camp had fallen.
A loud "boom" sound was heard, and both sides of the battle looked over in unison.
On the second floor of the restaurant where the archer was, the entire wall facing the street suddenly collapsed, sending up dust all over the sky.
A figure screamed and fell from the upstairs. There was a loud bang and there was no sound again.
Qin Zhong, covered in dust, appeared on the second floor that was completely opened. He spat at the mouth, bent down, grabbed a long bow, drew an arrow and shot.
"Bang." The arrows fired from the three-stone hard bow, with a harsh whistle, were directed at the enemies on the street.
To open a three-stone hard bow, both arms must have at least 700 to 800 kilograms of strength. Even so, most people cannot fire continuously. If you insist on holding the bow open, the most likely cause is muscle strain. Even if you recover later, there will be sequelae. There are even some cases.
Maybe, from now on I will no longer be able to shoot a stiff bow.
It is precisely because of this that the archers did not fire continuously. Otherwise, with the lethality of the hard bow, the old ghost and others would not be alive.
However, Qin Zhong was born with supernatural powers and could draw a three-stone bow at the age of twelve, so he was not affected by this at all.
"Bang, bang, bang." The three-stone hard bow and the arrows were flying. This was a massacre.
The huge momentum of the long arrow can carry people flying. Can you imagine how powerful it is? How many people have seen it since it was born from the mother's womb?
With a barrage of arrows, the enemies were so scared that they no longer had the courage to charge and fled in all directions with a whistle.
The old ghost laughed loudly and looked like he was crazy. His opponent tried to escape several times, but he blocked him and couldn't escape. But as the saying goes, if you force a dog into a back alley, it will suffer a backlash. The old ghost hated these people very much, but he couldn't escape.
It's a taboo, no matter how hard it is to fight for life, the enemy must be spared.
The opponent was also a ruthless man. Seeing that he could not escape, he roared and thrust his sword straight into the old ghost's arms.
They clearly intend to die together.
But at this moment, the bowstring exploded with a "bang" sound, and the enemy's body suddenly froze, and an arrow tip half a foot long appeared from his throat.
The old ghost was startled. If the arrow tip extended another three inches, it would hit his throat.
"You little bastard, you even shot me?" The old ghost knew that Qin Zhong was right, but he still couldn't help but yelled.
At this moment, there were a lot of casualties on the street, blood was everywhere, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood. Except for the dead and wounded, the enemy had already fled without a trace. More than half of the people in the Xiaoqi camp were killed or injured, but they were unable to pursue the enemy anymore.
I can only let him escape.
After checking, we found that three people on our side were killed in the battle, all of them killed by the enemy's heavy arrows. The rest were slightly or seriously injured, and everyone was injured. Eleven of the enemy's people died, leaving no one alive, and the rest fled. On the street
Innocent people, at least twenty people were killed and injured.
"Who are these people?" Shi Yong covered his left rib and limped over. He tore open the clothes of a corpse, but there was no wolf head mark.
"They are a military force." He Wuer said with certainty.
"Yes, everyone has seen blood." Liu Hou was injured in his arm and was bleeding.
"People from the army? Why did they intercept and kill us?" Shi Yong was shocked.
"Take the brothers and leave here first." The old ghost came over with a knife and said with an evil look on his face.
Fortunately, the horse was fine. He put the dead brother on the horse and quickly left the scene. With so many people killed in Longyang Town, the Pucheng Yamen must investigate. But when the official business arrived, they didn't know how to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. They had urgent matters.
But it is impossible to delay here.
Not far from the collapsed restaurant, Liu Liang slowly lowered the curtains in front of a window on the second floor of another restaurant, his face so gloomy that he was about to drip.
He was not distressed by the loss of eleven good soldiers, but was extremely angry. Such an ambush on the street could not spare those from the Xiaoqi camp, which was beyond his expectation. Especially in the end, Qin Zhong killed the archers.
, a series of sharp shots that stunned him.
Liu Liang had never seen such an unparalleled marksman with a three-stone hard bow and a series of shooting skills.
"That sharpshooter, who is he? Do you know?" Liu Liang asked without looking back.
"His name is Qin Chong. He is the legitimate son of Qin Yutian, the commander of the Xiaoqi Battalion. He is born with supernatural power and superb martial arts." Behind Liu Liang, a person wore a hooded cloak that covered his entire head and face. It was rare that he refused to take it off on such a hot day.
.At this time, seeing Liu Liang asking questions, he quickly bowed and said.
"Qin Yutian." Liu Liang spoke slowly and narrowed his eyes. "The one who lost his horse and was detained in Yanzhou?"
"Exactly." The man raised his head, revealing a sinister face, but it was Bo Yao Pingyuan, the supervisor of Shayuan.
Liu Liang sent people to break into the camp and rob the prison that day, but he didn't want to suffer a big loss. Of the five people he sent, only one escaped. According to what he said, the Xiaoqi camp had already set up a dragnet and was just waiting for them to take the bait. These words made Liu
Liang was shocked and confused, could everything he did be part of others' calculations?
After much thought, he decided to return to Beicheng again and wait for an opportunity to rescue his fallen subordinates.
By coincidence, he met Yao Pingyuan at the restaurant where he was staying. When Yao Pingyuan saw Liu Liang, he was overjoyed. He had something to say to Liu Liang before, but Liu Liang came and went in a hurry and had no chance to talk. When they met,
It can be said that God helps people.
At that moment, he told Liu Liang everything about the grudge between Liu Zihao and Qin Zhong, adding fuel to the fire.
Yao Ping deeply hated Qin Chong, but he wanted to use Liu Liang's hand to vent his anger. Why? It turned out that Yao Gang witnessed Liu Zihao murder and arson, and was severely frightened. He was in a trance day and night and had nightmares.
Continuously. Within a few days, he was already unconscious.
That day, he met Qin Zhong by chance on the post road. Qin Zhong kicked the carriage to pieces, frightening Yao Gang to collapse completely and become a fool. Yao Pingyuan sought medical advice, but it was of no use. Seeing that his son had turned into a fool, what happened to Yao Pingyuan?
Are you willing? All this hatred and resentment will be recorded on Qin Chong.
But who was Liu Liang? He saw through Yao Pingyuan's tricks at a glance and was completely unconvinced.
Yesterday afternoon, the Imperial City Secretary escorted the prison car past Liu Liang's eyes. His nephew and four personal followers were all in the prison car. The anger at this moment completely burned Liu Liang's reason. He was determined to take revenge.
I even wish I could have a large army in hand and wipe out this heroic cavalry camp in one fell swoop.
The opportunity to take revenge on the Xiaoqi camp soon came to him.
Yao Pingyuan received news that Qin Yutian was detained in Yanzhou, and the Xiaoqi Battalion will send a team of troops to Yanzhou to search for horses and rescue people.
Liu Liang mobilized peripheral support personnel and laid an ambush in Longyang Town overnight, vowing to annihilate this group of people. He chose Longyang because this place had just emerged from Dali, so people were the weakest on guard and the ambush was easiest to succeed. He chose downtown.
The same principle applies. As for the lives of the people, it was not part of his plan.
However, an ambush was inevitable but failed, and all the elite soldiers were almost lost.
And Qin Chong, a fledgling young man, finally caught Liu Liang's attention.
"There is still no news about that girl from the Cui family?" Liu Liang asked lightly.
"I haven't heard any news yet." Yao Pingyuan was also surprised, why couldn't he find a girl in her teens?
"Hurry up and inquire. Once the information is confirmed, I will be grateful."
"Don't worry, I will spare no effort to find you."
When night fell on the earth, three fires were lit in a deserted ditch more than thirty miles west of Longyang Town.
This is the cremation held by the old ghost and others for their dead brothers. Soldiers do not believe in being buried in peace, but long for their souls to return to their hometown. Today they have collected their ashes, and they will take them back to their hometown in the future. This is when
The friendship between soldiers cannot be understood by those who live and die together.
Qin Chong knelt in front of the fire and kowtowed three times to each veteran, looking sad.
These three veterans all died for him.
After a long time, Qin Zhong stood up, glanced at the hard bow beside him, and immediately became angry. He grabbed it and tried to break it. It was this bow that took away the lives of three veterans. The bow was stained with veterans' blood.
How could he not be angry because of the blood?
"Keep it, the weapon is innocent." Shi Yong reached out and stopped Qin Zhong.
"Keep it," the old ghost said. "Perhaps one day, with this bow, I can find the person who set up an ambush today."
"If you find this person, you will kill him." Qin Zhong tightened his grip on his long bow and said in a deep voice.
In the deserted ditch, the night wind suddenly became fierce, the fire suddenly shot up into the sky, and sparks shot out like a shower of stars.
It seems like a departed veteran saying goodbye to his comrades.
