Chapter 8 Melee

The reorganized state soldiers finally started to act. After laying two crossbow arrows to test the distance, the shield hand first came out of the forest, followed by the crossbow hand.

They held a curled crossbow with a curvy arrow and slowly approached the wooden lane under the protection of the shield.

Behind the wooden lane, two guards from the Xiao Mansion dragged two straw bags from the horse's back, slashed their swords and cut them open. With a loud bang, the arrows filled with them scattered out.Those guards were originally hunting and relaxing with their master, and they didn't come desperately. It was enough to bring two boxes of arrows.A lot of ejaculation just now has been consumed, and each person is only four or five.Seeing that there were suddenly two or three thousand sharp arrows, I couldn't help but feel thunderous.

Wu Zhanwei slashed into the soil with a knife and said fiercely: Don’t rob it randomly!Everyone weighed the weight and came over to get ten pieces each!If you are not good at ejaculation, go there as soon as possible!

The guards recognized him as one of Young Master Cheng's two personal guards. The knife also looked very capable, and no one dared to show off.

More than forty good archers came over to get the arrows. Xiao Wu and more than twenty people guarded the wings of the wooden lane, and the rest scattered along the wooden lane.

Instead of using his horn bow, Wu Sangui took a Baihua bow and shouted: "You guys who use the bow!"Don't let those grandchildren who play crossbows get close!Follow my orders!string!

Everyone pulled their bows and buckled the arrows on the strings.

see!

The guards from various families raised their bows at the opposite state soldiers at the same time, and the bowstrings were pulled into a full moon.

Wu Sangui stared at the movement of the soldiers in the prefectures and suddenly shouted loudly, "Destroy!"

More than twenty feathered arrows roared out, and the soldiers of the state stopped and protected their bodies with their shields.

When the two armies shoot at each other, the accuracy is second to the second, mainly relying on the density of arrow branches to cover the enemy's army and cause damage.

These more than 20 feather arrows seem inconspicuous in the huge battlefield.

But the difference is that these guards are all good at shooting.

The difference between them and state soldiers is like the difference between a virgin shooting athlete and a policeman.

In addition to the few branches blocked by the shield, half of the more than 20 feather arrows hit the target accurately.

Wu Sangui's arrow directly sent the crossbowman's commander into the underworld.

The crossbowman who lost his command was in a mess for a moment and then hurriedly fired the crossbow arrow.

The crossbow arrows roared and shot the wood piles into pieces, but failed to hit any valuable targets.

Without the commander's order, the crossbowmen put down the crossbow machine and hurriedly stepped on the crossbow arms.

Xiao Yaoyi just said less, the loading time of crossbow machines is longer than that of bows and arrows.

Even a well-trained crossbowman fires two crossbows on the battlefield and is enough for the opponent to release three arrows.

As soon as the crossbowmen were halfway through, the second round of feather arrows flew out from behind the wooden sticks.

The general of the state army issued a loud order, ordering the shield hand behind him to quickly to protect the crossbowman who lacked protection.This was a wrong decision, and soon the soldiers paid the price.

The wooden trench arranged by Xiao Wu was in a crescent shape, and the two wings came forward. The crossbowmen of the state government soldiers were in a situation where they were attacked on three sides as soon as they stepped into the open space.He didn't take action just now, just waiting for this opportunity.

The shield hand on the side and rear is moved forward to expose the crossbow hand side.Mulei stretched out more than ten curved bows at the same time, shooting nearly 100% of the accuracy of the two crossbowmen.

The crossbowman threw down the half-loaded Jue Zhang crossbow and fled desperately into the forest, and was immediately attacked by the third round of feather arrows.

This time the casualties rate was even higher, with more than a hundred crossbowmen leaving nearly twenty bodies in three rounds of shooting, paying half of the injuries.

Xu Ao touched the tiger talisman under his elbow, and his palms were covered in sweat.

The order given to him by the master was to capture Xiao Yaoyi so as to eliminate the threat of the imperial guards as soon as possible.

Who knew that this guy was so cunning that he actually brought in several aristocratic families.

If you fail, it will be a trivial matter if you die. If you destroy your master's plan, you will never be redeemed.

After the state government troops reorganized, they launched another offensive.

They changed into two rows of shield hands, arranged in dense formations with the melee sergeants, and approached the wooden lane.

In order to keep the formation tight, the soldiers walked very slowly, which made them pass through the open space longer.

Losing the threat of crossbowmen, the escort men who were motivated by money simply exposed their wooden turrets, bent their bows and arrows, and shot into the gaps of the shield.

From time to time, soldiers were shot down by arrows, hindering the movement of the array and causing the state government troops to move more slowly.

However, this nearly 300-person battle formation still withstood the arrow rain, and crossed the distance of fifty steps, getting closer and closer to the wooden lane.

Wu Sangui threw down his bent bow, took his spear and jumped onto the horse's back, shouting: "My boys!"Step on these turtle shells that break!

Go Ah!

The guards Nie Ran applauded, and more than fifty men carried swords and got on the horse, following Wu Sangui's gap.

At a distance of fifty steps, the mount was sprinting forward; the spearmen of the state government soldier hurriedly raised his spear from behind the shield to resist the rider's charge.

Wu Sangui took the lead and raised his spear to smash a shield. The shield-handed soldier fell heavily backwards, and blood was squirting from his mouth.

More than fifty cavalry rushed over from behind, following the leader Wu Sangui, smashing the tight array of soldiers in the prefecture.

The soldiers and the guards shouted and fought wildly, and blood flew everywhere. The guards' mounts were poked down by spears, and the soldiers of the state government were also killed one after another by the Li spear and long sword.

In just a quarter of an hour of confrontation, both sides suffered heavy casualties.

Half of the mounts of the guards were stabbed to death, more than ten people were injured, and the casualties of the state soldiers were even more severe.

But the guards who retreated first were the ones. Although the money was tempting, they had to spend their lives.

Seeing that the main formation of the state government troops was still standing, the remaining guards rushed back one after another.

If Wu Sangui hadn't returned to the horse and stepped on the formation twice to block the pursuit of the state soldiers, most of these scattered guards would have been unable to return to Mulei.

Wu Sangui ran back to the wooden lane in blood. Cheng Zongyang took his spear and said: Is it necessary?His face is so ugly?

Wu Sangui looked dissatisfied and spat fiercely: If I had trained the soldiers, the rush just now would have rushed away the turtle formation of the soldiers in the state government from the middle.Although they have more than 300 people, it will be useless to meet my cavalry!If they don’t leave more than a hundred lives, I will write the word Wu upside down!These Nā species--I bah!

Cheng Zongyang said: Okay, everyone knows it’s a mob, it’s good to be able to fight like this.

Although he repelled the attack of the escort rider, the state soldiers were unable to fight again and slowly retreated with the casualties.

Xiao Yaoyi smiled and said with a smile: Master Wu San, have you been in the army before?

Cheng Zongyang took the lead: Of course, I sent Changbo and Huizhi to study military more than ten years ago. Otherwise, how could I gain a foothold in the Southern Wilderness?

More than ten years ago?

Xiao Yaoyi joked: Brother Saint has such a vision at such a young age, and it turns out that he is the saint nature.Look at Master Wu’s formation, could it be learned from the Emperor’s Tiance Mansion?

Wu Sangui said honestly: I don’t have this blessing when I am young, but I have been with the border army for a few years.

Xiao Yaoyi's eyes lit up. Is it from the west or the north?

Boy Xu started again!

Cheng Zongyang interrupted their conversation, this time it was a cavalry.Hello, the navy and cavalry?

Xiao Yaoyi narrowed his eyes and observed the soldiers opposite him, and said: There are tens of thousands of people in the Stone City camp, and hundreds of cavalry can always get it.

He held the sword and it depends on whether he could withstand it depends on this time!

More than 100 cavalrymen of the state prefecture lined up in the forest, and then rushed out at the same time, with infantry following closely behind.

Those riders rode strong horses in the army, with tall mounts and long legs, and swept across the battlefield in just a few breaths; the archer behind the wooden lane only released one or two arrows, and the cavalry rushed to the front.

Brothers!Fight Ah!

The guards roared and stood up, relying on the protection of the wooden siege to extend their spears, but they were not trained and most of them stabbed the horses in a hurry.

The cavalry at the front pulled the reins at the same time, and the horses jumped up, crossed the half-man-high wooden turret with their socks, and rushed into the back of the formation.

Wu Sangui stood on the base, swung his spear left and right, stabbed the cavalry on his horse off the horse, and shouted: Look forward!Hold the spear tightly!kill!

Xiao Yaoyi shouted: Five thousand silver zhu is here!Come to Ah!

The cavalrymen killed the scattered guards and ran straight towards Xiao Yaoyi.Cheng Zongyang turned around and looked at Xiao Yaoyi, gritted his teeth and said: Dead fox!Why are you hiding behind me?

Xiao Yaoyi grabbed Cheng Zongyang's sleeve and screamed: Brother Cheng, help me...

I'll do it!You call the person and let me go up and fight to the death!

Xiao Yaoyi squeezed his eyes. This was a good opportunity for Brother Cheng to establish his authority.

As he said that, he pushed Cheng Zongyang over.

Before he could stand firm, he rushed to the front of him. The spear about a foot long was about a cold light and stabbed into his chest.

Cheng Zongyang spread his arms and drew his sword, crossed his swords, clamped against the edge of the spear.

The spear was more than one meter long, and the spear rod was made of a whole piece of jujube wood, with a thin front and a thick back. The handle of the rider was as thick as an iron can of Coke, and it was polished smoothly.

Cheng Zongyang shook his arms, knowing that he could not stop the rider's rushing momentum, both men and horses.

He fought against the long spear with all his strength, turned his body and blocked the spear pole behind his back, took a step forward, and waved his right sword like a whirlwind, cutting down the rider's arms holding the spear.

Xiao Yaoyi put his hands together at his mouth and shouted loudly: Brother Cheng, good-knife-method!

The screams made Cheng Zongyang's hair stand on his back, and he slashed the rider off the horse with one knife, and shouted: Dead fox!I'll tell you to kill me first!

Another cavalry rushed over, Cheng Zongyang narrowed his eyes, the scars on his temples kept jumping, and the qi wheel of the Dantian turned rapidly, and when the cavalry raised his spear, he swung his knife to slash.

With a clang, the tip of the spear was slashed crooked by the steel knife.Cheng Zongyang took a move to swallow a sheep, and his two swords were used to cut the rider over to the ground.

Xiao Yaoyi did not shout again.

When did this little fox become so easy to talk about?

When Cheng Zongyang looked back, he saw Xiao Yaoyi stretching out his hands, picking out his thumbs together, and then waved to the children of aristocratic families on the hills in an exaggerated manner, shouting in his mouth: Too--ok----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two cavalry rushed towards each other at the same time, and Cheng Zongyang took his sword and left without saying a word.But Xiao Yaoyi escaped faster than him, and rushed to the hill with both hands and feet.

Zhang Shaohuang shouted: Brother Cheng!I'll help you!

Xiao Yaoyi shouted: Brothers, help Brother Cheng together!

Several children with bows raised their bows and shot towards the chase behind Cheng Zongyang. Even Fatty Shi patted the car window and shouted: Brother Cheng!Kill them!

People have helped this way, and no matter how thick-skinned I am, I can't escape.Cheng Zongyang had no choice but to turn around, hold the knife across his chest, and curse the little fox in his heart.

The two riders were running closer and closer, and the long spear about a foot was raised side by side, and the spear tip was straight to the chest.

Cheng Zongyang took a deep breath, fought with one tiger in all directions, and his two swords instantly slashed eight swords from the front, back and left and right of the body, swinging the two long spears at the same time.

A scream rang out, and the rider on the left was caught in an arrow on his shoulder.Zhang Shaohuang finally found his arrow. The three-winged and six-edged arrow tore open the leather armor, as if the wolf's sharp teeth were biting on the rider's shoulder, sucking blood fiercely.

Cheng Zongyang turned his wrist, pressed a long spear with his left hand, and raised the knife with his right hand, split the thick spear rod into two pieces.

The rider on the horse's back was extraordinary. He drew his sword in his hand while the long spear fell. The sword slashed down obliquely, and a spark splashed on Cheng Zongyang's blade.

The rider was extremely powerful by the horse's rushing force. Cheng Zongyang's arm was numb and he took a few steps in a row to find a flaw. The blade cleaves the rider's armor and leaves a huge wound on his chest.

Suddenly there was a pain behind his back, but the cavalryman who was caught in the arrow held the spear in one hand and stabbed the spear into his shoulder.

Cheng Zongyang held the spear in his back hand and was pushed to the ground.

The cold spear tip was about to pass through my shoulders.

A figure flashed out like a ghost, and a long knive with a hook hooked the cavalry's arm, tearing open the flesh and tendons of his arms.

In the falling bloody rain, Xiao Wu crossed his body, kicked the cavalry off the horse with one foot, and then helped Cheng Zongyang up the hill.

hiss……

Cheng Zongyang gritted his teeth and sucked the cold air through the gaps of his teeth.

Brother Cheng!How about it!Is it important?

The children of the aristocratic families surrounded each other and rush to ask.

Fatty Shi!Don't get out yet!

Huan Xin pulled Shi Chao out of the carriage.

Then he was sent to a fragrant brocade mat.The clothes behind the shoulders were cut open, and warm blood flowed down the shoulders.

Everyone brought a lot of injuries, and now they were unswervingly going to Cheng Zong's wounds with his shoulders falling down.

The noise around was roaring, and Zhang Shaohuang furiously said: Cut off that guy’s head!I want to destroy his whole family!

Shi Chao said: Amitabha!Buddha!Buddha...

Suddenly a voice said in a crying voice: Brother Cheng!If you have a few things, I will not live anymore!

Cheng Zongyang was immediately furious and roared: Dead fox!Get out of here!

Xiao Wudao: Dear masters, let Young Master Cheng take a break.

Shi Chao hurriedly said: Yes!right!You guys are careful to serve you!Brother Cheng lost his hair, and I cut all your heads!

The side finally calmed down, and the pain on the forehead continued to be heard.

Cheng Zongyang slowly adjusted his breathing evenly. This time the wound was worse than before. The spear tip pierced straight in. Fortunately, he held the spear tip and was not pierced through the shoulder blade, but the wound was about an inch deep and bloody, which looked horrifying enough.

Several pairs of smooth palms stretched out to help him untickle his clothes.Cheng Zongyang was stunned and realized that this was Shi Chao's carriage, which was filled with his servant girl, and hurriedly said: No, right?

Xiao Wumu said with a face: Young Master Cheng, your clothes are torn, you have to change them.The young master just rested when he was served by the woman from Jingu Garden.

As he said that, he ordered: The young master was suffering from Jin Chuang. You guys are careful to help the young master rub and promote blood circulation.

Cheng Zongyang lay on the brocade mat, grabbed his collar, grinning in pain.Xiao Wu!You don’t fan the flames!

Xiao Wu grinned, Gentleman is a hero's home.The young master rested.

He massaged Cheng Zong on his shoulder a few times to stop the bleeding. While applying medicine, he pointed out the servants to bandage the wounds and said: Those soldiers in the state were defeated by Master Wu San, and their spirits were broken. No need to worry about the following matters.

Although the wooden trests under the hills were built in a pile of grass, they were enough to become an insurmountable natural barrier in front of the state soldiers without heavy weapons.

When attacking the base, the soldiers of the state government could no longer maintain their formation, and the good martial arts of those guards came in handy, especially the escorts of the Xiao State government almost withstand half of the attack of the state government soldiers.

After losing nearly thirty people, the soldiers of the state government finally lost their spirits and began to retreat.

Xu Ao's expression became more and more serious. From the valley entrance to the point where he fought, the state government soldiers had suffered more than 100 casualties. The general army's casualties rate was less than one tenth, and the army's morale began to shake. Few troops could bear one-third of the casualties.

Although these soldiers were the elites of the Stone City camp, their morale was inevitably severely reduced after paying one-sixth of the casualties.

Especially the wooden lane, even the brave warrior refused to die in vain before he could find a solution.

Wu Sangui had already cut off two spears, and now he was holding Wu Zhanwei's big sword in the middle of the wooden crane.

Wu Zhanwei's leg had not recovered yet. He just cut down two cavalrymen when he resisted the cavalry charge. He was kicked hard by the horse's hooves and had to retreat to Qiuhou.

Nearly 200 guards died at this time, and dozens of them were seriously injured and unable to fight.

However, the two attacks of the state government troops were repelled, and the morale of these men was greatly boosted. The soldiers' bodies that they had no time to snatch back were cut off by their heads, waiting to receive the reward.

Wu Sangui's eyes were not inferior to Xiao Wu, and he also saw that the soldiers in the prefecture had lost their strength and were unable to fight again in a short period of time.

If you ride a fast horse from the hill around the battlefield, Wu Sangui is 50% sure he will break out of the valley and report to Jiankang City.

Mr. Cheng was injured.

Before Xiao Wu finished speaking, Wu Sangui jumped up.

It's okay.

Xiao Wu grabbed him. When Mr. Cheng was in the spear, he held the spear tip and did not hurt the tendons and veins. He would be cured in just a few days.

Wu Sangui was not relieved and shouted to the hill: Big brother!How about it?

Wu Zhanwei made a gesture to him to relieve him, and Wu Sangui finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Wu spread the floating soil on the ground, drew the locations of the wooden lane and the soldiers of the prefecture, and said: There are more than 400 soldiers left in the prefecture, and 200 soldiers at the entrance of the valley.We defeated them twice just now, and these remnants have lost their temper.

Wu Sangui said: It just rained and the forest was still wet, so I was not afraid of their fire attack.

That's right.

Xiao Wuyile, but can Mr. Wu resist being beaten here?

Wu Sangui nodded, let’s do it, it’s a good idea to make a move.These guards are too many, and I'm afraid they don't have the courage.

Don't need too many people.

Xiao Wudao: Pick a dozen good players, go around them from the side, and shoot a few arrows from afar. As soon as they get into trouble, Master Wu will attack from the front.If you attack on both sides, you might even win.

Wu Sangui pointed to the location of the valley and said: Fight here together!You guard the base, I will take people there!If you have the chance, go out!

Both of them have fought, and the details are revealed as soon as they are mentioned. The more they talk about each other, the more they become more and more speculative, and there is no need to talk nonsense.Xiao Wu clapped his hands: Young Master Cheng actually has talents like Master Wu!good!I'll guard the base!

Suddenly a low growl came from the opposite side.Xiao Wu and Wu Sangui stood up at the same time, and saw a figure slowly walking out of the opposite forest.

The man was not wearing armor, but only dressed in gray cloth.Although he is strong, his back is slightly hunched, and he is not prominent among the elite soldiers of the state government.

The man walked out of the dense forest, then stood up, his body straight as an iron tower, as if he had changed his personal life, and instantly became tall and mighty, showing his domineering spirit.

He wore a hood, his beast-like chin was covered with a thick beard like steel wire, and his muscles were bulging like rocks.

The new force in the Yukou?

Xiao Wudao.

I didn't see the banner moving... Damn it!

Wu Sangui shouted: Do he want to rush to the base by himself?

The big man roared, then stood up, took a step and rushed towards Muli at a speed of speed above the galloping horse, and his body became faster and faster.

Wu Sangui bent his bow and set an arrow, and the arrow shot out like a meteor.The big man stretched out his body, and the arrow landed on the cut down wooden stake, and the arrow feathers kept trembling.The guards fired arrows one after another, but none of them shot.

Wu Sangui lifted his sword and jumped onto the wooden lane and shouted: That man!Leave your name!

The big man seemed to have not heard of it, and several leaps had already rushed to the front of the tower.

Wu Sangui shouted loudly and swung his long sword.

The man raised his head, his blood-red eyes under his hood contracted slightly, revealing a vicious look, and then squeezed out a word from the cracks of his teeth - Death!
