Broken door panels and window frames, broken tables, chairs and furniture, smashed jars and jars, and fragments of clothing and cloth were piled all over the road. Bodies of townspeople could be seen lying everywhere, and they were all stained with blood, which was not very serious at all.
Both sides of the wide street were almost full of rubble and ruins, with broken walls standing tall and puffs of black smoke emitting from them. The whole town had become a mess.
Standing at the intersection entering the town, several people looked at each other. Ye Yaoqi lowered her head and couldn't bear to look any more. Lao Cheng wiped a cold sweat and murmured: "It's only been a few days since I came here, why is this town like this?"
It became like this.”
Shang Yi walked over, looked at the corpses of several townspeople, and then went to the ruins, grabbed a handful of cigarette ashes, and smelled it. Then he came back and said: "This town was not killed for a long time, at most it was yesterday.
What happened. From the looks of it, it was probably a robber."
Lao Cheng didn't pay attention for a moment and said: "What should we do? Let's go back immediately. If we meet a robber, it will be tragic."
Shang Yi shook his head and said: "If the robbers plan to live here, they will not destroy this town. It is precisely because they know that this town has been destroyed before, so they will not come back. Therefore, this place should be temporarily
It is safe. Moreover, we have walked for a long time and are very tired. We go to the town first to find a place to rest and eat some solid food. This way, even if we meet the robbers again, we will have the strength to escape, and then look for them again.
See if anyone survived and ask what happened."
Everyone heard what he said was reasonable, so they all went into the town together and found a house that was not burned down. Although it was a mess inside, they could still rest. Everyone rested here for the time being. Shang Yi walked around the town again.
After looking around, they used infrared scanning to search and found a dozen survivors. Shang Yi brought them back. Several of them knew Lao Cheng.
Listening to what they said, it turned out that just yesterday, a group of robbers entered the town, burned, killed, and looted, doing all kinds of evil. There were more than 260 households in the town, with a population of more than 1,000, and they were the only ones left now.
There were more than a dozen people. After Shang Yi and others listened, they all sighed. Lao Cheng sighed: "The world outside is really chaotic, it's better to stay in our village."
Shang Yi was silent as well, just standing at the door, looking at the almost completely destroyed town, with mixed feelings in his heart. Although he knew that at this time in history, the Ming Dynasty was dying. The world was in chaos, because it was in
In the area north of the Yangtze River, bandits were everywhere. Two peasant armies headed by Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong were roaming around. The Ming court repeatedly suppressed them. Li Zicheng's troops were slightly better, and sometimes restrained the troops and won people's hearts. Zhang Xianzhong's troops almost
There was no discipline at all, and they killed everyone wherever they went, and the officers and soldiers who suppressed the bandits were not much better than them. The most unlucky ones were still ordinary people. And the town in front of them is probably the current situation.
An epitome of.
Although Shang Yi was familiar with this period of history, he only learned about it from almanacs. He stayed in that small mountain village for more than ten days after traveling to this world, so he had no intuitive experience. He only saw it with his own eyes now.
After this tragic scene, we can deeply understand the cruelty of history. I couldn't help but say softly: "I would rather be a peace dog than a person in troubled times."
Just when he was lost in thought, Ye Yaoyao walked up to him and said, "Brother Shang, what are you thinking about?"
Only then did Shang Yi come to his senses and said: "It's nothing, I..."
As he was talking, he suddenly heard a commotion outside, with shouts and footsteps mixed in. The dozen or so surviving villagers were already frightened and immediately turned pale with fright. Someone exclaimed: "Are the robbers coming back again?" "
Lao Cheng, Zhou Shaohuan, Tong Dayong and others were also very nervous. However, because they were afraid of encountering wild beasts on the mountain road, they all carried bows, arrows and forks for hunting. So everyone wielded their weapons and looked outside in horror.
Shang Yi was also surprised. Was his judgment wrong? The robbers were back again. He quickly took out his GPS and scanned it with infrared rays. It showed that there were only sixteen people. Shang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Although he The instrument can only scan a range within 1,500 meters, but it can at least show that the group of robbers is still a certain distance away from here, and it is not a problem to deal with a mere seventeen people on their own.
Therefore, Shang Yi immediately said: "There are not many people coming. You should hide here first. Don't run around or make any noise. I'll go out and take a look."
Then he took off his long shirt, revealing a camouflage uniform underneath. I couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, I had not only brought all the weapons with me, but also wore a bulletproof vest, arm guards, and leg guards. Now Everything came in handy. Then Shang Yi took out the stacked crossbow, opened it, strung the bow, and walked out of the house.
At this time, Ye Yaoyao chased him to the door and said, "Brother Shang, you have to be careful."
Shang Yi smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry! I'll be fine. You have to hide and don't make a sound." After saying that, he followed the GPS guidance and turned around and ran towards the street.
However, Shang Yi did not run directly towards the street. Instead, he crouched and kept moving through the ruins, fully concealing his body. This is the basic quality of a special soldier. In any environment, he must use all available resources. To take advantage of the conditions, protect yourself first before you can kill the enemy.
In less than a minute, Shang Yi poked his head out from behind half of the earth wall and saw two groups of people flying one behind the other, about forty or fifty meters away from him, on the main street of the town. Run away, and all of them are holding weapons. There are only five people in the first group, each holding a single sword. Only one person is in green clothes, and the rest are in gray clothes. Then there are more than ten people in the next group, with different clothes and weapons. It was also very messy, with knives, sticks, and people holding sickles and hoes. The two groups of people were not far apart, only five or six meters apart at most.
From the clothes and expressions of both parties, Shang Yi could basically judge that the latter group of people were robbers, but it was still difficult to draw a conclusion as to the identity of the first group of people. And with such observation, the two groups of people and Shang Yi The distance between Shang Yi and Shang Yi has become closer. The previous group is less than thirty meters away from Shang Yi's hiding place.
At this time, one of the people in the first group was disturbed and fell to the ground. Before he could get up, he was caught up by the robbers behind him. Two knives were thrown at him. The man let out a scream and fell silent. The first group of people all looked back and saw that their companions died tragically. The man in green said: "Brothers, let's fight them." He stopped and turned around.
The other three people were obviously following his lead, and they all stopped, turned around, and followed the man in green, holding up their single swords and rushing towards the robber.
At this moment, Shang Yi took action, and with a "swish" sound, a crossbow arrow hit a robber in the chest. The robber snorted and fell on his face. Although Shang Yi was carrying a pistol, there were three hundred and twenty
It can be considered that there is enough ammunition to fire bullets. But Shang Yi knows that although rudimentary muskets have appeared in this era, it will take at least three hundred years to produce bullets that match his own pistol. Once all the bullets are used up,
If the gun is damaged, the pistol will become a piece of scrap metal. Therefore, you must be sparing and don't use the pistol unless it is absolutely necessary.
The crossbow arrows are different. Although there are only sixteen sets of crossbow arrows, they can be used to make crossbow arrows with the same purpose. In the village, he made fifty crossbow arrows, so in the past ten days, he hunted
At that time, all the crossbows were used, and not a single bullet was wasted.
Seeing that one of their companions died suddenly, the robbers were all shocked. Even the group of people who escaped could not help but be startled. And Shang Yi's crossbow can fire continuously. In just a moment, another
He fired three crossbow arrows in a row, each of which was accurate, and killed three robbers in a row.
But when the third robber was shot dead, the other robbers discovered Shang Yi's hiding place. Four robbers immediately raised their weapons and rushed towards the half of the earth wall where Shang Yi was hiding. The one who escaped
The group of people obviously knew that someone was helping them, so they couldn't help but cheer up. They each raised their swords and rushed towards the robbers. A melee broke out between the two sides.
After Shang Yi shot down the fourth robber, he immediately put down his crossbow, drew out his saber, and faced the robbers rushing toward him. The robber at the front held a single sword, which was much longer than Shang Yi's saber.
, and slashed Shang Yi down with a knife on the head.
This was the first time that Shang Yi had interacted with someone after time travel. He turned slightly sideways and raised his sword to greet him. Although Shang Yi's saber was short, it was forged with 21st century technology and the material used was alloy steel. It was not a metal at all.
The forging craftsmanship of this era was comparable. So there was only a "click" sound, and only half of the single sword in the robber's hand was left.
Seeing that the weapon in his hand was broken, the robber was also startled instinctively. At this time, Shang Yi clenched his fist with his left hand and punched out, hitting him right in the face.
This move may seem simple, but after Shang Yi's era, countless combat experienced instructors integrated Sanda, Muay Thai, Jeet Kune Do, swordsmanship, Japanese Kendo and other fighting techniques, and then analyzed them with computers.
And through constant practice, he came up with the most effective sure-kill move. Shang Yi had practiced this move tens of thousands of times. Moreover, he had defeated several vicious terrorists with this move.
At the same time, Shang Yi's left hook is also famous in the army. Many teammates were knocked down by Shang Yi's left hook during daily combat training. What's more, Shang Yi's left hand was wearing a finger glove at this time.
.The robber was able to withstand it, and he was immediately beaten until his blood and flesh were spattered. He didn’t even make a sound, and he fell head-on, unable to get up again.
