Because it was in Julu City, the Jiuyuan Army did not send out all the sentry posts as usual, especially the raiding sentries and startling sentries that extended several miles away. However, the good habit allowed Jiuyuan Army to guard the prison.
While the army deployed a large number of open sentinels, it also deployed a few hidden sentries around the camp.-- ./8384--update uploaded by friends}
The loud shout just now came from a secret whistle hidden on the roof of a civilian house by the Jiuyuan Army. However, it is obvious that these men in black who are coming to rob the prison are not ordinary people, especially when there are people in black from all four directions.
Among the people, there were more than a dozen people wearing masks, and they reacted extremely quickly.
The Jiuyuan Army who was hiding in a private house was horrified by the sight of the man in black below and had just made a move when he was discovered by a masked man in black among the sneaking crowd.
The masked man in black raised his hand without hesitation and fired a crossbow arrow, quickly and accurately! The Jiuyuan Army secret sentry only had time to utter a single syllable before he was hit in the throat by a small crossbow arrow and died.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was made when the secret sentry of the Jiuyuan Army fell from the roof and fell to the ground after being hit by a crossbow arrow.
This sudden change not only alarmed the Jiuyuan Army stationed around the prison, but also obviously surprised the men in black sneaking around the prison.
"Ang!" A sharp whistle sounded in the silent night.
"Let go!" Upon hearing the whistle, several voices from all directions in the darkness shouted.
There was a continuous slight mechanical sound of "Pap-Pap-Pap", followed by countless slight "Peep-Pap-Pap" sounds that broke through the air.
The leader of the two to five hundred men guarding the prison was Meng Tian's former bodyguard Ren Xiaoer. He heard the commotion outside and just got out of the tent when he heard the unusually familiar sound of breaking through the air.
"Strong crossbow!" A thought appeared in his mind, although it was a little different. But he was already familiar with the various functions of the Qin crossbow, and he immediately realized what the sound was.
Before he finished speaking, hundreds of horizontal crossbow arrows struck from the surrounding darkness and penetrated hard into the bodies of the patrol soldiers who ran over and the Jiuyuan Army who had just emerged from the tent. There was also the sound of tearing the tent apart.
.
"ah!"
"ah!"
…
The sudden appearance of crossbow arrows caused the Jiuyuan Army to collapse immediately. Except for the twenty or so night watch soldiers who rushed over, almost all the hundreds of Jiuyuan soldiers who had just emerged from the camp had been hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
There were constant cries of pain in the camp, and it was obvious that many people were injured.
The incoming people were actually equipped with powerful crossbows! This problem was obviously not thought of by all the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army, but obviously this was not the time to consider the issue of powerful crossbows._(..)
"Blow the horn!"
Ren Xiaoer who got up from the ground looked at his men who were injured and killed, his eyes were blood red, and shouted loudly. "Xu Guang, Jiang Ba, Yao Dong, Yu Peng, Xi Long, Wu Yi, Jiang Song, Zhu Li, Tu
8. Chen Bu. Are you bastards dead?"
The ten people Ren Xiaoer pointed out were the ten hundred generals in his thousand-nine original army.
"Sir, Tu Ba (Chen Bu, Xi Long, Wu Yi, Jiang Song, Zhu Li, Yu Peng, Jiang Ba) is not dead yet!" Eight voices came from all over the camp in front of the prison at the same time.
There was no sound from Xu Guang and Yao Dong, and Ren Xiaoer's heart sank.
"Woooooo!" The rapid horn sounded, especially loud in the silent night, and the peaceful Julu City suddenly boiled.
"Tuba, Chen Bu led his soldiers to immediately enter the prison to defend. Close the door tightly. Anyone who wants to enter the prison will be killed without mercy!" Ren Xiaoer ordered loudly. Without waiting for the two people to answer, "Bu Hao, Tan De, you two
Are people still alive?
"Sir, Bu Hao (Tan De) is here!"
Two voices that sounded in the distance made Ren Xiaoer feel a little at ease!
"The two of you have temporarily taken over the post of Hundred Generals. Xi Long, Bu Hao, Tan De and the remaining five Hundred Generals should immediately lead their soldiers to form formation at my general's place and extinguish the torches! The assassins have strong crossbows!"
The powerful crossbows of the Qin Dynasty were the most sophisticated crossbows at this time. Nowadays, soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army generally need sixty breaths after shooting the crossbow before they can load the crossbow again. Skilled soldiers can load the crossbow within thirty breaths.
Ren Xiaoer could tell from the sound of breaking through the air that the powerful crossbow used by the enemy hiding in the dark was not the military crossbow of Great Qin. It would be impossible to load the crossbow in just a dozen breaths, so he simply ordered the formation.
.
Because judging from the time when the crossbow bolts just hit, the enemy had no time to shoot the second crossbow bolt!
But just in case, put out the torches so that no one can see each other. My crossbow can't hit you, and your crossbow can't hit me.
Ren Xiaoer’s guess is good!
The men in black who came around were indeed too late to shoot the second arrow. It should be said that the secret sentry of the Jiuyuan Army saved everyone. If it were not for the constant vigilance and the setting up of the secret sentry, then now Ren Xiaoer and the thousand people
The outcome will be tragic.
Nearly 600 men in black silently rushed towards Ren Xiaoer and 600 others who were standing quietly at the door of the prison.
There are equal numbers on both sides!
But what surprised all the men in black was that as soon as the two sides joined forces, dozens of people from our side lay down! And they were all hit by at least two or three swords and died immediately. If it weren't for the fact that there were more than sixty masked men in black
If people resist, more people will die.
However, Ren Xiaoer only suffered more than ten casualties!
The noise in the distance became louder and louder, accompanied by the thundering sound of horse hooves. It was obvious that the reinforcements from the Jiuyuan Army had heard the horn sound from the prison and had rushed to the rescue.
Meng Tian was in Julu City and not living in the Sheriff's Mansion!
Because the Sheriff's Mansion was changed to Zhao Palace by Li Zuoche, although due to the short time, the so-called Zhao Palace was not a palace at all. But it was still Zhao Palace. In order to avoid suspicion, Meng Tian chose to live in Julu County.
The Julu County Government Office and the Julu County Sheriff's Office are located in the east city and the other in the west city. They are at least ten miles apart.
In addition to Ren Xiaoer, who was guarding the prison, and the remaining 9,099 original troops who followed Meng Tian into the city, they were all stationed in strategic locations by Meng Tian, and Meng Tian only had hundreds of personal guards around him.
As for Li Zuoche's 100,000-strong army in Julu, they were all moved out of Julu by Meng Tian and stationed outside the city. They were guarded by 19,000 original army infantry who came from behind.
The first to arrive at this moment was the Qianjiu Yuan Army stationed at the east gate of Julu, and the rest of the Jiu Yuan Army stationed elsewhere were also arriving one after another.
Hundreds of men in black had obviously spotted the Nine Plains Army rushing towards them from afar. Except for the more than sixty masked men in black, the other hundreds were already in a state of panic due to Ren Xiaoer's thunderous strike.
All the men in black suddenly wanted to retreat.
"kill!"
A masked man in black who was obviously the leader suddenly shouted, and more than sixty masked men in black following him rushed forward.
"Do you still want to run away? If you don't kill them all, no one can leave! Why don't you kill them?" Seeing that the remaining men in black were not moving, the leading masked man in black shouted with a taunting look in his eyes.
.
After saying this, the man went up to kill the general with the dagger in his hand, ignoring the hundreds of men in black who were still hesitating around him.
Hundreds of men in black who were hesitating around heard his words and finally gritted their teeth and rushed forward.
From the first time Ren Xiaoer met him, he didn't take the men in black behind him seriously. Perhaps based on his martial arts alone, not only his own hundreds of nine soldiers, but also the three hundred thousand people in the nine soldiers except for the scout camp.
, and few can surpass these men in black.
But Ren Xiaoer doesn't have to worry about group operations. He will kill as many people as he comes!
The only thing that frightened him was the sixty or so masked men in black.
The previous casualties of more than ten Nine Original Army members were caused by these masked men in black. If these people had not stopped them, the rest of the unmasked people who were obviously bandits and rangers would have died even more.
The most important thing is that these masked men in black are not afraid of death. More than sixty of them are completely fighting for their lives. However, their superb martial arts and tacit cooperation mean that every time one of them lies down, the Jiuyuan Army will pay at least two to
The cost of losing three soldiers to the ground.
Moreover, even if the Jiuyuan Army was only injured if they were hit by them, they would immediately bleed from the orifices and fall to the ground and die!
There is poison in the weapon!
Death warrior!
The battle situation suddenly became stalemate. Ren Xiaoer did not want to waste the lives of his soldiers for these dead soldiers, so he took a defensive position against these dead soldiers, and focused most of his attention on the ragtag group of black men without masks.
Hearing the roar of horse hooves, Ren Xiaoer knew that the reinforcements from the Jiuyuan Army were about to arrive.
…
Half an hour later.
Hundreds of men in black were surrounded by more than 3,000 Jiuyuan legionnaires who arrived, and they were all killed on the spot.
The surrounding area of the prison was illuminated like daylight by the torches of more than 3,000 Nine Original Army soldiers. The area around the prison was filled with blood and was in a mess.
"What are the casualties?" Meng Tian had arrived a long time ago. Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Qian Liang said, looking at his horse and saluting.
Qian Liang looked at Ren Xiaoer, clasped his fists and said, "Report to the General, Ren Xiaoer's troops were killed in more than 200 people and injured more than 50 people. Everyone who attacked was killed, and no one survived."
Meng Tian frowned when he heard Qian Liang's words. "Why not leave him alive?"
Qian Liangtian was speechless and didn't know how to answer Meng Tian.
"Back to General, it's not that we don't want to leave anyone alive, but that all the survivors will be silenced by the masked man among the attackers! It's too late for us to save them!" Ren Xiaoer stood up and said.
"Mask man? Can we find any clues?" Meng Tian asked.
"Come back to General, the masked men are all dead soldiers, and their weapons are all contaminated with poison, which will kill you! And the men in black should be big thieves and rangers from Shandong and other places!" Ren Xiaoer hesitated and said.
.
"Investigate this matter thoroughly! Now go to the prison and see if the traitor is still there!" Meng Tian ordered with a cold face.
He was really angry. Meng Tian never thought that now that the giant deer was in hand, and there were tens of thousands of troops, there were still people who dared to come directly to rob the prison. Obviously, they must be people like the deceased Zhao family members hiding in the dark.
Ren Xiaoer stood at the door of the prison and shouted: "Open the door, Tuba!"
There is silence in the prison!
"Tuba, Chen Bu, you two bastards, the general is here! Open the door!" Ren Xiaoer shouted in embarrassment.
Still no movement!
Ren Xiaoer realized something was wrong at this time, his expression changed and he shouted: "Come here, break down the door!"
At this time, a fast horse came galloping forward. The knight on the far horse dismounted and knelt down in front of Meng Tian and reported: "General, the army outside the city has reported that the camp outside the city has been attacked by the enemy!"
