Chapter 714: Successful Sniping
Li Mofeng didn't know that he belonged to a very good person in the eyes of others, and he also thought that he should make good use of others!
With two sturdy family members, Li Mofeng found a place to ambush him, and waited for a day and a night, and he didn't wait for any messengers on the trail he was waiting for, at most, the people in the surrounding villages, to chop firewood near the place where he was ambushed, and there were no other pedestrians.
After waiting for a day and a night, Li Mofeng felt a little unbearable, he could only eat dry food and drink cold water, these are not enough, the sin he suffered in the Yan army camp two days ago began to have a follow-up reaction, he began to feel very tired, his whole body was sore, as long as he lay on the ground, he didn't want to move, and he left everything to the two family members to do.
Another day passed, the sky was about to get dark, Li Mo climbed up on the grass, he really didn't want to move, but a soak of urine was uncomfortable, he had to go to the convenience, this kind of thing no one could do for him.
As soon as he walked under a big tree, he held on to the trunk with one hand, and was about to make it easier, when he saw the man in charge of the sentry running back on the hill not far away, and shouted: "Come, come, there is a messenger from the south!" ”
Li Mofeng was startled, but it was not convenient, he urinated all his hands, he wiped his pants casually, and shouted: "What's the matter, what kind of messenger is it?" From the south, that is the messenger from Chang'an? ”
The place where he ambushed was located between the Yan army camp and Chang'an, the messenger from the south was Chang'an, and the messenger from the north was the messenger of the Yan army, but Li Mofeng always thought that the person who walked the path was the messenger of the Yan army, but he did not expect to find the messenger of Chang'an.
Fastening his pants, Li Mofeng ran two steps, ran onto the hill, and looked at it from a distance, and saw about a mile away. When he rode around, the speed of the horse was not very fast, but the military uniform was obviously the military uniform of the imperial guard, and even if it was far away, it could be easily distinguished.
Li Mofeng hurriedly said: "It's really a messenger from Chang'an, and there is only one person, hurry up, you must intercept him, he must have a letter from Chang'an to Yan Jun!" ”
The two family members hurriedly agreed, they had been waiting here for so long. Isn't it just to intercept the letter, now that the main master has arrived, how can they not act quickly!
The two family members took out their bows and arrows and aimed at the rushing messenger, while Li Mofeng took out his waist knife and held the knife tightly in his hand, but after thinking about it, Li Mofeng put the knife into the scabbard again and picked up the spear. He thinks it's safer to take advantage of a spear, at least in a fight, as the saying goes, an inch long is an inch strong!
More than a mile. It's not very far, and for the cavalry, it's even more so in the blink of an eye, with the sound of horses' hooves. The messenger from Chang'an rushed to the bottom of the hill unhurriedly, and Li Mofeng and the two family members instantly became nervous. They are afraid that the dark arrow will not hit the messenger, wouldn't that be bad, after all, if you want to shoot the messenger in the gallop, the requirements for the accuracy of the arrow are still high!
But it seems that the heavens are also favoring Li Mofeng, but gave him a very good opportunity, when the messenger ran to the vicinity of the hill, he slowly stopped, the messenger took the water bladder from the horse, sat on the saddle, and began to drink water!
This is a good opportunity, the target in the gallop misses, so now the stopped target, and it is also a target that does not move on horseback, can it still not be missed? That's a terrible archery skill, isn't it?
One of the housekeepers opened his bow and aimed his arrows at the messenger, and fired an arrow at the messenger, but unfortunately the leader was not very good, and he did not shoot the messenger, but was two feet away from the messenger, and shot to the ground on one side.
Fortunately, the messenger was still drinking with his neck raised, as if he hadn't noticed the arrow, and his reaction was really dull!
Li Mofeng hurriedly said: "Shoot again, you shoot again, what are you doing in a daze!" ”
The two family members did not have any military training, but they were physically stronger, and their archery skills were obviously not very good, after shooting an arrow just now, they all went to see the arrow, and forgot to hurry up and shoot again, after listening to Li Mofeng's words, they reacted, and swished out another arrow, but this arrow is even more outrageous, not as good as the first arrow, it was three feet away from the messenger, and it missed again!
At this time, it is estimated that the messenger has drunk all the water in the water bladder, and can no longer drink it, so he can only put down the water bladder, and he tilts his head to look at the arrow, and seems to be a little puzzled, where did the arrow come from? Oh, not one, it's two!
Li Mofeng was furious and shouted: "If you miss the shot, then shoot the horse!" ”
The two family members hurriedly released the arrow again, aimed at the horse and shot it, the horse's target was too big, and the distance was not very far, even if it was Meng, it could be covered, but there was still an arrow that did not hit, only one arrow hit the horse, or shot the horse's buttocks!
The horse, like the messenger, was a little stupid, and waited motionless to be shot, when he was shot in the ass with an arrow, and then the horse cried out in Herod, and the messenger cried out, "Is it Orion?" Don't shoot indiscriminately, I'm a human, not a deer! ”
It's stupid, at this time, I even thought it was a misunderstanding!
Li Mofeng raised the spear in his hand and shouted, "Capture him alive!" "The archery skills of the family are so anxious that he should rush straight down, down the hill, maybe he can catch the messenger and ask him about the situation!
The two family members hurriedly agreed, threw down their bows and arrows, drew their waist knives, followed behind Li Mofeng, and rushed down the hill!
But when they rushed halfway through the momentum, they saw that the messenger threw away the water bladder in his hand, brushed the ground and drew his waist knife, and pointed at Li Mofeng with a big knife, and shouted: "It turns out that it is not a hunter, but a robber who kills people and overgains goods, I am the imperial guard of Chang'an, this time I am going to the Yan army to deliver a letter, you dare to stop me......"
Before he could finish speaking, the horse under his crotch suddenly jumped a little, and turned around half a circle, presumably because it was very painful after being injured, so he wanted to run wild, and at this time the messenger was gesturing with a knife, and did not use his hand to grab the reins of the horse, so the horse only jumped like this, and it was not high, and the messenger could not stand it, and his body was crooked, and he fell off the horse's back, and was dragged by the horse and ran. However, it was running in the direction of Chang'an, although it was not fast, but it was also impossible for people to catch up.
The messenger was dragged by his horse and ran, screaming and shouting for help, and one of the letterboxes he was carrying fell down, but he could not pick it up!
Li Mofeng was overjoyed, when he rushed down the mountain just now, he was quite brave. But as soon as he saw the messenger draw his knife, and the fierceness was revealed, he was afraid, but there was no way back, he was afraid, what if the three of them couldn't beat this fierce-looking messenger?
Heaven helped him, but the horse ran away and dragged the messenger away. Just like when he was dragged away by Yan Jun, Li Mofeng knows this kind of living crime very well, as long as he falls, he is dragged by the horse and runs. Then don't even think about standing up!
Li Mofeng cheered loudly, and suddenly felt that he had the potential to be the king of the mountain, and he ran to the road with a loud cry and picked up the letterbox from the ground. Shouted: "Hurry up, hurry away!" ”
The two family members were also very excited, in fact, they also saw the fierce color of the messenger. Just now they were also very scared, it can be seen that their young master rushed over, and they had to keep up, but they didn't think that the messenger had an accident, was dragged on the ground by the horse and ran away, and dropped the letterbox.
Li Mofeng grabbed the letterbox in his hand, and galloped back to the hill, climbed high and looked into the distance, and saw that the messenger's horse had slowed down, and the messenger struggled hard, I am afraid that it won't take too long, maybe the messenger will be able to struggle to get up, if he jumps on the horse again and chases him, then he will definitely have to play with the three of them, will he snatch the letterbox back at that time, and kill all three of them by the way, it is uncertain!
Li Mofeng jumped on his horse and said, "Quick, go back to Taiyuan quickly, I'll go first, after you two break off, if the messenger catches up, shoot him with an arrow, and shoot him to death!" ”
He didn't care about the two family members, and then rushed down the mountain after beating the horse, and when he reached the road, he ran wildly with all his might, and even if the horse was tired to death on the way, then did he want to walk back to Taiyuan on two legs?
The two family members were helpless, they also wanted to escape quickly, but after listening to their young master's words, they could only break off, except for praying that the messenger would not catch up, they couldn't think of anything else!
But it backfired, it didn't take long for the messenger to struggle to get up, it seemed that he was really strong, much stronger than Li Mofeng, if Li Mofeng was dragged away by a horse, unless someone else put him down, he didn't think he could stand up.
The messenger first stopped the horse, just talking about the strength of the arm, it can be said to be appalling, and he got up and shook his head, as if he had not been injured, he first looked at the wound of the horse, and found that it was not a major injury, so he took out a paper bag from his pocket, and smeared some of the powder in it on the wound of the horse, and then he turned on the horse and chased in the direction of Li Mofeng's escape.
Because it was still far away, but both of them could see what was happening on the messenger's side, neither of them dared to go there, but they did not flee quickly, and thought about sniping, but they did not think that after the messenger got on his horse, he galloped and took out the bow and arrow on the horse's back!
The two family members were so frightened that they flew away, who was that messenger, they were all injured like that, and they could still ride their horses and gallop wildly, and that horse was really an animal, and it was shot by an arrow, and it could still run so fast, was it seriously injured?
The two of them completely forgot what it meant to break off, or they simply didn't understand, so they turned around together and ran in the direction of Li Mofeng's escape, without taking arrows and shooting them at the messenger, of course, they didn't have that ability, and they couldn't release arrows on horseback!
But the two family members can't put arrows on horseback, but it doesn't mean that the messenger doesn't have this ability, the messenger is aimed at a family member, and the swish is an arrow, which hits the horse leg of the family ding's mount, and the horse falls to the ground, and the family member is thrown and screams, trying to let another family save him, but the other family has long been scared to death, how can he get off the horse to save him, but run faster!
Li Mofeng also heard the screams in front of him, and he thought to himself: "How did you do it, why did you catch up so quickly?" He didn't dare to turn back, but he still ran forward desperately!
But at this time, there was a huge scream from behind, this scream was so loud that even if Li Mofeng ran far away, he could still hear it clearly, as if he was shouting in his ear, which made him even more frightened, but the sound of horses' hooves behind him was getting closer and closer!
Ran out of twenty miles in one breath, such a wild run, even if people can stand it, but the horse can't stand it, Li Mofeng's horse speed gradually slowed down, and the sound of horses' hooves behind seemed to be not so urgent, at this time, Li Mofeng dared to look back!
At a glance, Li Mofeng was almost angry, it turned out that the person who had been chasing behind him was not the fierce messenger, but one of his family members, who turned out to be his own person, and actually scared him all the way!
Li Mofeng stopped his horse and shouted, "You're not dead? ”
"Yet, still alive!" The family chased after him, and replied with a sad face.
"What about the other one?" Li Mofeng asked, he estimated that the other family member was killed by the messenger.
"Killed, the little one saw the situation at that time, and the messenger slashed his head off with just one sword!" When Jia Ding talked about this situation, his whole body was still trembling, which showed that the situation at that time frightened him!
Li Mofeng looked at the surrounding situation, and saw that there was a small forest on the side of the road, so he said: "Let's go into the forest and hide for a while, hurry up!" ”
When they had gone into the woods, they hid themselves behind the trees, fearing that the horse would suddenly bark, so they tore off the strips of cloth from their clothes, tied the horse's mouth, and rested in the woods while observing the situation on the road outside.
In a short time the messenger caught up with him, and saw him sitting on horseback, with a knife in one hand and a head in the other, presumably the head of the slain man, galloping over the edge of the grove.
The man thought to himself, "This messenger is so skilled in riding that he can ride a horse without even mentioning the reins!" He glanced at Li Mofeng, and when he saw that Li Mofeng didn't pay attention to this, he didn't squeak.
Li Mofeng saw that the messenger had passed, so he whispered: "Let's change the way, anyway, we are the head of the earth, we know all the paths, but the messenger will not know!" ”
He took his family out of the grove, changed the road, and continued to run towards Taiyuan, running for a while and resting for a while, and finally ran to Taiyuan.
All the way non-stop, Li Mo sealed to the left-behind mansion, and wanted to ask to see Li Chongjiu, this time he made a great contribution, grabbed the letter sent by Chang'an to the Yan army camp, and died, this credit, others can't take it anymore, if you let him do dangerous work, it will not treat him as a person, it belongs to harming him, then he can't stand it!
But he thought in his heart that he couldn't stand it, but when the person who stayed in the mansion came out was Li Bozhi, he was still stupid, and he couldn't stand it, he had to bear it.
Li Bozhi's injury is not good yet, but he is very active now, specially guarding in the gatehouse, whoever wants to see Li Chongjiu, it has to pass him, he would rather drag the injured body, he would rather give Li Chongjiu as the porter, he also wants Li Chongjiu to know how loyal he is, this is called the work of dogs and horses!
Li Bozhi saw Li Mofeng and said curiously: "Why did you come back so soon, did you find any news?" His gaze fell on the letterbox that Li Mofeng was holding in his hand!
With just such a glance, Li Mofeng almost didn't cry, the credit that he finally got in his hands is not going to be taken away again? (To be continued......)
