It's not that Liu Ce doesn't want to bring in manpower, it's just that it's hard for a clever woman to make a living without rice, so she has to leave more than a dozen people to guard the Liu Mansion, and there are also a few people left in Hetou Village.
In other words, there are fifty or sixty people here.
There were thirty or forty people on the other side that they could see now, but they couldn't guarantee what was going on in the tent.
Liu Ce and Liu Tie's worries are justified. In fact, the tents are actually occupied by people sent by the Lotus Sect.
The reason why the tent was set up was because it was filled with female disciples.
As long as she can go out to perform tasks, this woman is not a good person.
Even though the enemy's situation was unclear, Liu Tie still seemed very cautious.
He looked up at the sky.
It will be dawn in half an hour, and there is not much time left for you.
Liu Tie calmed down and briefly gestured with Liu Ce behind the stone.
"When we used this kind of tent for military marches in the past, ten people would live in each tent."
"There are five tents here. Let's calculate them as if there are fifty people living in them."
"To put it all together, the other party is close."
"Our ratio is almost one to two."
"So our actions must be fast and sudden, so that we can win."
After listening to Liu Tie's analysis, Liu Ce nodded frequently, "Yes, the first thing we have to deal with is the enemies in the woods and tents."
"There are only a dozen people on the steep slope, and there is no support. It will be easy to solve it here in the end."
"Yeah, just separate out a few people and stop them."
"In the tent or in the woods, try to shoot them with a serial crossbow to ensure success in the first time."
The two of them had discussed and decided that Liu Ce would lead twenty people to deal with those people in the woods. This was exactly what Liu Ce wanted, and they were the ones who defeated him.
Liu Tie led 20 people to surround several tents and shoot any enemies who might rush out.
Then separate five people to stop the guards on the steep slope to prevent them from reinforcing them.
In addition, five people were left as reinforcements. Wherever there was a shortage, they could be flexibly supplemented.
After the distribution was completed, everyone immediately started taking action.
It was just as Liu Tie expected.
In the woods, Zhang Yu was on tenterhooks all night. When he saw that it was getting dark, he relaxed his vigilance, closed his eyes, and prepared to have a good sleep.
The female disciples of the Lotus Sect in the tent naturally slept more soundly.
As for the dozen or so guards on the steep slope, perhaps it was because of the tranquility in the past few days that they were very lazy. In addition, the weather was going to be wet and cold tomorrow. A few people huddled together and took advantage of the remaining warmth to get some sleep.
.
Liu Ce and his men quietly approached the woods, but the group of people in the woods were unaware of this.
Liu Tie was even more courageous and careful, and asked someone to hide behind a boulder and light a few torches.
With a whistle, everyone started to act together.
Liu Tie directed everyone to throw the torches on the top of the tent first.
The tents were all made of flammable materials, and flames shot up into the sky instantly.
Zhang Yu in the woods was immediately alarmed, but before he could stand up, Liu Ce and his men had already rushed in. More than twenty serial crossbows fired indiscriminately.
In this era of cold weapons, serial crossbows are equivalent to today's machine guns.
It is impossible to withstand such a close range of intensive attacks.
After a wave of attacks, only a few people around Zhang Yu could stand up.
At this time, the female disciples of the Lotus Sect in the tent panicked when they saw the fire.
A few people near the door rushed out as soon as the curtain was lifted, but before they could see clearly where the enemy was, they were shot to the ground.
The disciples of the Lotus Sect were relatively well-trained, and when they sensed something was wrong, they cut through the felt of the tent with their swords and got out.
But what awaited them was still a barrage of ruthless shooting.
Everything that happens here happens in the blink of an eye.
The person leading the guard on the steep slope was Xiao Jiu.
When I heard something moving here, I opened my eyes and saw, oh, my mother was on fire.
He quickly stood up and shouted, "Quickly put out the fire."
Just after taking a few steps, I felt a heat in my chest. When I looked down, I saw that two short crossbows were already pierced.
Xiao Jiu reacted quickly. He bowed his body and quickly rolled backwards, then rolled again and hid behind a rock.
But the people around him were not so lucky, and two or three people fell down quickly. The rest of the people looked for hiding places and did not dare to take a step forward.
Xiaojiu reached out and touched the two short crossbows on his chest.
Fortunately, I was wearing body armor.
Therefore, the short crossbow only penetrates about half an inch, which is not enough to kill.
What sounded in his ears were screams one after another. Although he couldn't tell who it was, he knew that those were his accomplices.
Especially those crisp screams, they are obviously female disciples of the Lotus Sect.
Xiaojiu quietly stuck out half of his head and looked into the distance.
All he could see were hurried black figures running around, and those were obviously enemies.
Under such a sudden attack, even though he had the advantage of manpower, he was obviously at a complete disadvantage and was in danger of being annihilated at any time.
Xiaojiu immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.
No, the news must be spread.
Then there is only one way, you must find the Lotus Master as soon as possible.
He listened carefully, and heard two dings as two arrows and crossbows hit the stone next to him, followed by a scream, his accomplice had been hit by an arrow.
As soon as he said it, it was too late. Xiaojiu jumped back again.
It succeeded, and this time he retreated, about half a foot.
In this way, with accurate judgment, we quickly retreated to the top of the steep slope.
As long as he waits for another wave of shots from the opponent, he can slip down the rope.
At this time, the battle between the woods and the tents was coming to an end.
Liu Ce did not have a numerical advantage, but it was a surprise attack after all, so the effect was still obvious.
At this time, there were only two people left around Zhang Yu.
The three of them hid behind three trees and still resisted.
As for Liu Tie, the situation is much more optimistic.
The tent had been burned to a great extent, and there was no way anyone could hide inside. Most of those who rushed out would be shot to death or wounded by him.
The few remaining people surrendered helplessly.
After settling this matter, Liu Tie once again brought people to help Liu Ce.
Liu Tie grabbed a female prisoner and shouted inside, "Zhang Yu, you are finished, you should surrender."
Being able to call out his name, Zhang Yu knew that the other party must have captured him alive.
He turned slightly sideways and took a careful look at the tent. There was a blazing fire, but there was no sound of fighting anymore.
This means that the battle outside has ended, and there may be only three of them left at the scene.
Zhang Yu looked at the other two people and sighed.
"You two surrender, remember, you must survive."
After speaking, he raised the crossbow to his head and pulled the trigger.
There was a muffled sound. Zhang Yu slowly fell down.
Looking at Zhang Yu's unyielding eyes on the ground, Liu Ce couldn't help but admire him. He was a tough guy.
