Chapter 153
In addition to Wang Xing and the doctor, including Liang Xiao, ten knights all had a bow and shot several arrows at once, and instantly shot the two soldiers.
The soldiers of Minyue in the distance found something wrong, picked up their weapons and rushed over, but could not catch up with the speed of the war horse. In a hurry, they also shot a few arrows, but when they faced the fast moving target, they could not say the hit rate at all, and even if they were occasionally shot, it would be useless. With the protection of the armor, ordinary bows and arrows were difficult to cause actual damage to Liang Xiao and others.
The two sides did not even have actual contact and shot arrows at each other. Liang Xiao and others disappeared from their sight, leaving five corpses. More injured people, they covered their wounds and looked at each other, and they all felt like they were dreaming. These knights came and went even more suddenly. They suffered major losses without even knowing who the other party was.
The team leader hesitated for a while and sent someone to send the news out. However, he didn't say much, but just said lightly that there were about a dozen people riding horses, passing through their defense zone and heading south.
He simply did not realize that a battle that was completely different from his experience had just begun.
Liang Xiao put away his bow, pulled out the arrow embedded in the gap of the armor, took a look, and put it into the arrow bag. With the armor, the safety factor is greatly improved. Unless he encounters close-range shooting, he will basically not be in danger of life. If he had armor protection yesterday, he would never have suffered such severe injuries.
The first battle was won, and roughly estimated that three or four people were shot and seven or eight people were shot, but none of them were really injured. This was a good start. The kung fu of the Liang family of the Six County was indeed good. Even on the fast-paced horse, they still maintained a high hit rate. Basically, they maintained more than 50%. Li Shuyun shot four arrows, three arrows hit, and one arrow even cut the throat with one arrow.
In comparison, he was much worse. He shot three arrows, only one arrow shot, and it was not a vital point.
I still need to practice.
As the war horse galloped, the wound on Liang Xiao's body seemed to have cracked again. There were bursts of hidden pain. Liang Xiao missed the horse Wei Qing picked for him. Although the horse was not as fast as Qing's prostitute, it ran more steadily, which helped him improve his riding skills. Unfortunately, the horse was returned to the post house before crossing the river, and now it can't be found.
I can only endure it.
They ran forward for about ten miles and met a team of scouts, with only five people, several steps apart, distributed on the official road less than a hundred steps. Seeing their figures from afar, Li Shuyun made a gesture, turned his horse's head and galloped to the left of the road, as if he wanted to avoid these Minyue scouts.
Although the Minyue scout tightly held the weapons in his hand, he did not launch an attack, but just looked at the knights with vigilance. They had never seen such knights, and they didn't know what they were doing, whether they were enemies or friends. They couldn't avoid them and had no advantage in numbers, so they could only be vigilant.
Just as they were hesitating, the ten knights divided into two sides and sandwiched the five scouts from both sides. Seeing that Li Shuyun and the two in front were about to meet the last scout, they suddenly attacked and raised their bows and shot.
With a few strings, the five scouts who had not yet figured out the situation were shot and killed, seriously injured. The injured Minyue scout fell to the ground, covered the wounds of blood, widened his eyes and screamed in horror.
Qin Ge jumped off the horse, kicked one of them down, pulled out the sword, and pointed it straight into his throat. The Minyue scout immediately closed his mouth and didn't even dare to show his breath. Wang Xing rushed over and asked a few words in earthy words, his face looked a little ugly.
"A team of about 300 Yue thieves were rushing to Fuboli. Fuboli was besieged by Yue thieves. Two hundred people attacked for three days but failed to capture them. They were going to reinforce."
When Liang Xiao heard this, his face looked a little ugly. They were about to go to Fuboli, but there were 200 Yue soldiers inside and outside Fubo, and 300 were reinforcements.
Is the big tree attracting wind? Liang Xiao immediately thought of the iron work of Fuboli. He winked at Wang Xing. "Ask him, who's the idea?"
"What?" Wang Xing didn't understand.
"I asked who was the order to attack Fuboli." Liang Xiao was a little anxious. "Can it be that the Yue thief took a fancy to Fuboli's iron work?"
Wang Xing understood and his face turned pale. He thought it was just an ordinary plunder. When Liang Xiao reminded him, he realized that the problem here was probably not as simple as an ordinary plunder. They were probably going to Tiezuo.
Ironwork means weapons at this time.
Wang Xing was still a little demeanor at the beginning, and spoke gentlely. When he was anxious, he disappeared immediately. The Minyue scout had just hesitated for a moment. Wang Xing raised his hand and slapped the Minyue scout directly. He slapped several times, but he didn't ask any questions. Wang Xing was angry and pulled out his sword, which made him feel cold. He turned around and held the bloody sword and headed straight for the scout who was already half scared.
After a while, Wang Xing stabbed the Yue man to death with a sword and returned to Liang Xiao with murderous intent.
"It's your master Huan Yuan."
Liang Xiao's mouth twitched, and his temples twitched. Did I tell the master how to make steel?
Although the iron smelting technology has been significantly improved these days, it is still a long way from forging. It basically follows casting technology, so the iron sword is either easy to break or can only be thickened and widened, which is very heavy. If Huan Yuan heard the steelmaking method from him, it would be a big trouble.
When he came to this era, Liang Xiao had always been cautious, but he and Huan Yuan were together day and night and could not guarantee that he would not reveal any words. What if Huan Yuan heard him talking in a sleep? His ears were not ordinary.
Liang Xiao became more and more uneasy when he thought about it.
Seeing that Liang Xiao's face was wrong, the men looked at each other and the atmosphere became tense. When Wangjiangyi met, Huan Yuan's shooting skills and tactics left a deep impression on them. Liang Xiao and Li Jiao were comparable, and Li Jiao never returned. How likely is Liang Xiao to win? What's more, he was injured.
Now, Huan Yuan took the lead and sent 500 people to their destination, Fuboli. The number of people was disparate and lost the opportunity. Is there still a chance?
Everyone's eyes fell on Liang Xiao. If they wanted to deal with Huan Yuan, they all had the hope of Liang Xiao. No one else had such confidence.
Under the gaze of everyone, Liang Xiao's heart beat faster and his blood surged upwards.
You can't be anxious, you can't be anxious. Liang Xiao tried his best to comfort himself, and took more than a dozen deep breaths to make him barely calm down. He thought for a while and asked, "Wang Jun, how far is Fuboli from here?"
"About thirty miles."
"So far?" Liang Xiao frowned and suddenly realized a problem. "Isn't the base camp of Yue thieves more than fifty miles?"
"More than that," Wang Xing explained: "Even if we start from Zhenze, it's seventy miles."
"Seventy miles?" Liang Xiao smiled, smiling a little sinister. "Then it's not easy to spread a message. It's even more difficult to transport grain... it's even more difficult, right?"
"That's right, seventy miles, even the fastest person needs a whole day. It's normal for transporting food to take three days, and at the fastest, it takes one day and one night."
Liang Xiao smiled even happier. "My master said that those who are good at using troops will no longer be registered and will have more than three years of food. If Fu Boli is really his established goal, he will definitely find out about Fu Boli's situation clearly, send enough troops to carry enough food and grass, and go down in one go, and it is impossible to send troops to reinforce. In other words, if these three hundred people were really arranged by my master, then the two hundred people in front must not be arranged by my master."-
