Chapter 51: Confucius knows swordsmanship
killed the fat man and the thin man very easily, and Lege did not run all the way to save people. He was very suspicious that there might be some mechanism or ambush on the way there!
For example! Tripping horses!
The other party came here to set up an ambush at some point, so! There must be some kind of tricks. They let Confucius and his party go over first, and then! Send two men to block the back and stop the people who come over. Just in case, you might do it halfway.
Digging traps is impossible, but! They can set up bamboo skewers on the side of the tripwire. Once someone forcibly breaks in to save someone, they will be tripped over by a tripping horse. Then roll onto the bamboo skewer and stab it to death.
As a hunter, Lege naturally knows this.
Really! There is a tripwire not far ahead. And! Not one.
Since the music didn't come at a fast pace, the tripping rope didn't work. Along the way, he cut off all the stumbling horses.
He is not in a hurry to beg his aunt, he believes: Auntie will be fine for a while.
Furthermore! Grandma is not a vegetarian either!
As a descendant of a hunter, as an ancient woman, she still knows some martial arts. Auntie's skills, Lege knows.
And also! The people from the Qiguan family sent by the patriarch were all very powerful. These people! They are all strong men of the Qiguan family, and he is singing in front of these people, but Mao is not!
Other than that! The people sent by Confucius and the Song dynasty to escort them were also the strongest among them.
In this case, he will run over with music, which will only be superfluous.
Albeit! Today's music is no longer the music of the past.
Why should you worry about taking risks if you can recuperate?
When Lege came to a high ground, he didn't go any further, looking into the depression below!
Robbers really choose places and use them as a place for robbery.
This is an open depression, which is very suitable for cavalry encirclement.
To know! They all came on horseback. And Confucius and his entourage also came on horseback. There is only one passage to enter here. As you can imagine, there is only one passage at the exit. Otherwise! There is no way to prevent others from intervening.
There was only one passage, and I blocked the intersection, and the pedestrians on both sides could not pass, and Confucius and his gang had no backup.
And their group not only came prepared, but also had an advantage in numbers.
There were only sixteen people in Confucius's party, and the number of the other party should be more than thirty.
Lege roughly estimated that the other party was more than double the number of people. Because! The other side also set up an ambush at the intersection on both sides.
Lege thought to himself: Nima Land! Do you think you have caught the carriage that goes to the Son of Heaven to pay tribute? Or! A carriage that went to the king to pay tribute?
You're mistaken! It's just that the Qiguan family marries their daughter, so it's a little bit of a dowry.
In fact! Not only the dowry, but also the descendants of Confucius's family friends thanked Confucius's father Uncle Liang Yun for the gift.
Confucius's father, Uncle Liang Yun, used to be kind to the ancestors of these people, so! In order to repay the favor, these people gave Confucius this cart of property.
There are not many dowries of the Qiguan family.
In the field, Confucius and his party were not scattered, they gathered around the two carriages, fighting the robbers on the periphery. They were hunters and carried not only weapons but also bows and arrows.
The robbers, like mad dogs, ran around the two wagons and attacked.
The fierceness of the battle is conceivable.
Up to now! There were casualties on both sides.
Confucius and his party were sixteen people, except for the aunt who did not see it, there were only twelve people left. The remaining three may have been killed.
What made Le Ge unbelievable was that Confucius was holding a sword and was also among the battle. And! His swordsmanship is quite good. His strength is great, and the weapons cut by the opponent are easy to be cut away by him.
Robbers' side! There were also casualties. On the ground! There were four corpses lying down. Five horses without a master had fled the scene and were grazing leisurely on the side.
Seeing the leisurely appearance of the horses grazing, Lege couldn't help but laugh!
I thought: Brutes are brutes, and there is no emotion at all?
"No more sieges like this! Straight on! One! Dry! ”
That's it! One of the robbers had a flash of inspiration and shouted at the others.
The siege has lost its effect, the opponent brakes quietly, you hit the horse and run, but the people do not move. You attack, and people start defending. Outcome! On the contrary, their own side is passive.
Case! It's better to go straight to it! One-on-one!
Let alone! They have an advantage in numbers. Judging from the current situation, it is still two against one.
At the robber's reminder, the robbers stopped running and circled the wagon. Moreover! It's been discussed, who will deal with whom?
The original plan of the robbers was to wait for Confucius and his party to enter the ambush circle, and they rushed over to take the opponent by surprise and cut down the opponent as quickly as possible. Just like Lege cutting the fat man and the thin man just now, it was unexpected, and there was no suspense at all.
Outcome! They miscalculated! Confucius and his entourage had already prepared. When they rushed over, they didn't succeed. Opposite! They also killed two people.
When the plan failed, it became the current situation.
Really! After changing the tactics, the situation on the scene immediately changed.
In the face of strength confrontation, the robbers quickly broke up Confucius and his party with an absolute advantage and a two-to-one fighting style.
In the face of this kind of strength against strength, if you don't ride a horse and run away to dodge, you will be injured.
In the blink of an eye, the field was divided into seven or eight battlefields.
Although the people who escorted Confucius and his aunt were more than oxen, the robbers were not vegetarians.
Confucius did not ride a horse, he rode in a carriage. In this case, he seems to be weak. In front of the cavalry, the infantry suffered very much. Cavalry comes on horseback, wins with speed, and a single sword can kill you.
Just now! Confucius was in the cracks. So! It didn't hurt him much. Opposite! He can also exert great strength, and can knock the opponent's weapon flying.
And now! He became a target for the robbers. The robbers don't hit you with a single sword, and soon they will turn around and continue chopping.
"Don't!" That's it! With a wooden stick in her hand, the aunt got out of the carriage and stood beside Confucius. Husband and wife back to back, against the enemy.
"Don't hurt my wife! Don't hurt my wife! ......" Confucius saw the robbers rushing over, howling anxiously, and took the initiative to go out.
Saw! With his sword in both hands, he went up to meet the cavalry robbers who came running.
"Click!"
The two weapons collided and made a "click" sound.
Forthwith! There was a scream from the robbers!
"Ahh
Confucius actually cut off the opponent's weapon, and! They also slashed each other.
Le Ge saw that Auntie got out of the carriage and her life was in danger at any time, so she beat the horse down and saved Auntie.
He doesn't care if Confucius lives or dies! But Auntie! It's the woman he likes!
Though! Now he is no longer so strong about marrying his aunt. But the weight of Auntie in his mind is irreplaceable.
