Chapter 393: Divine Arrow Chen Canyu
"Xu Hongru is finally here!"
The sound of hooves broke the dead silence of the abandoned village, like a fierce war drum beating on everyone's hearts. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Good flint, get closer!"
Although there are more than 500 people on the other side, there are more than 100 musketeers on Chang Wei's side, each with four muskets, and elite soldiers such as Cheng Laohu to protect the flanks, after four rounds of volleys, the enemy should have run away without a shadow, not to mention that there are fourteen of their first-class masters, it is enough to deal with these people.
"Yin An, Xu Hongru is handed over to you, kill him whatever you want!" After killing Xie Chunqiu in the battle of Honghu, Chang Wei asked Hu Yang to form a sharpshooter team led by Yin An, which has now begun to take shape.
"Don't worry, my lord, we will kill him!"
As long as Xu Hongru is killed, it doesn't matter if the others are killed, the sound of horses' hooves is slowly approaching, and it seems that Xu Hongru's people have slackened, and after a while, the horse team all entered the village avenue, and there were thirty or fifty horsemen in front and behind to speed up and rush into the courtyards everywhere.
Yan Ruyu immediately said: "Master, they want to search the house, it seems that they want to rest here." ”
Xu Hongru's people had just let off the fireworks signal, and it would take a little time for the boats in Nanyang Lake to come over to pick them up, so they needed to take a break here? Chang Wei was thinking about it, the courtyard gate in front of him had been split open, and the two war horses jumped over the low threshold one after the other and rushed into the courtyard.
The two of them under the moonlight were wearing the uniforms and armor of the Ming army, and they were also holding the standard Yanling knife in their hands, and the two looked around, and one of them rushed towards the house on horseback.
"Don't wait, aim at Xu Hongru and prepare to shoot a salvo!" Xu Hongru stood in the middle of the avenue, seventy or eighty steps away from the place where they were hiding, although the shooting hit rate was not high at this time, but if he waited any longer, he might run away.
Chang Wei decisively ordered: "Shoot!"
With the sound of a dense gunfire like fried beans, the smoke and blood splashed on the village avenue, and at any time the followers of the White Lotus Sect were shot and fell from their horses, and the frightened war horses and horsemen rushed into each other, and for a while, the silent village seemed to explode.
In the earth-shattering shouts of slaughter, a bloody massacre began, and the cries of the White Lotus Sect believers changed from initial panic to anger and then to fear, they did not expect that there was an enemy in ambush here, and it was such a powerful musketeer.
After the first round of gunfire stopped, there were already one hundred and ten people from the White Lotus Sect who fell off their horses, although only thirty or forty were shot, but the rest were overturned and trampled by the war horses, and another one or two hundred people were swept back and forth by the manic war horses, and no more than one hundred and ten people remained in place.
But Chang Wei's heart sank deeply, because at the beginning, he was holding a bow and arrow and was about to make up for Xu Hongru, but at the moment of the gunshot, Xu Hongru turned over and fell off the horse, and then disappeared.
Chang Wei saw very clearly that Xu Hongru was definitely not shot and died, but where were the others? Chang Wei aimed his gaze at a few war horses that were running wildly.
"The musketeers continue to shoot, and the masters divide into two teams and intercept the horses!"
The second round of dense volleys rang out again, Chang Wei and Yan Ruyu jumped into the courtyard from the window, and the White Lotus Sect who had entered the house at the beginning happened to be bumped into by them, and he was cut off by Chang Wei's throat with a knife before he could use his kung fu.
The two jumped on the wall, Tang Jinyi, Han Chai, and Enlightenment also followed, and the figure of the Nine Sons of the Big Dipper was also shown on the wall on the other side of the avenue.
Standing on the high roof with a few galloping steps, everything in the village was in full view, and after three volleys of fire on the middle avenue, the five hundred White Lotus Sect knights were killed and wounded at least more than three hundred, although the actual ones who were shot were not as many as the war horses trampled and injured.
There were two teams of knights on the north and south of the village, still galloping away with neighing horses. To the north of the village is the direction from which the White Lotus Sect knights came, where the White Horse River connects to Nanyang Lake, and to the south of the village is a winding path, with a tidal flat on one side and a dense tidal forest belt on the other, and the knights on the south side are climbing the path from under the tidal flat.
Chang Wei glanced at the enemies on the north and south sides, and immediately shouted: "The musketeers are divided into two teams to intercept and kill, and focus on besieging the thieves on the south road!
"Yes!" the soldiers answered, all of them rode on their horses and rushed out, Chang Wei asked Han Chai and Enlightenment to help the soldiers in the north, and he and Tang Jinyi, Yan Ruyu, and the twelve masters of the Big Dipper Nine Sons chased the soldiers to the south.
Yan Ruyu said suspiciously: "Master, do you conclude that Xu Hongru is in the team in the south?"
"Look at the formation!" Chang Wei said to the team on the side: "In this kind of escape, that group of knights actually protected the horse in the middle, indicating that there must be a big man on that horse, probably Xu Hongru; ”
"Got it!"
Fifty or sixty horsemen copied out of the village and quickly slashed diagonally in front of the group of knights along the trail, Chang Wei's purpose was very clear, that is, to block the opponent before he stepped on the trail, and shoot them on the tidal flats where there was nowhere to hide.
Although the knights of the White Lotus Sect were a little closer to the trail, how could the speed of the horses galloping on the undulating and soft sand compare to the flat ground?
Even if the other party has a master like Xu Hongru, Chang Wei has the confidence to win. As long as a salvo goes down, even if a few don't die, the war horse will be frightened, and a mess of the formation is definitely a dead end, and even Xu Hongru will be trampled into pulp at that time.
"Go back!"
The man in the middle let out a low shout, and a dozen knights turned their horses in unison and ran towards the other side of the village.
Tang Jinyi and Yan Ruyu shouted in surprise: "Sure enough, it's Xu Hongru!" The two of them recognized that Xu Hongru was no stranger to his voice.
"Xu Hongru wants to wait for reinforcements, call everyone back, this time I will beat him into a hornet's nest!"
Chang Wei has rich combat experience, and he saw through Xu Hongru's plan in an instant, the reason why he didn't flee was that he wanted to rely on the house for defensive warfare, which was far safer than chasing and riding with the musketeers, as long as he waited for a moment and waited for the lake fleet to arrive, he could escape safely.
After the knights in the north were knocked down by the musketeers, they looked back for a while, and actually turned around and returned to the village, which shows that this team of people is really just a bait, and the escape was also to cover Xu Hongru, and now seeing that Chang Wei is not fooled, he can only return.
It was a simple matter to find a conspicuous team of knights in this small village, and soon Chang Wei took a hundred and ten musketeers and Cheng Laohu's men to surround the courtyard where Xu Hongru was hiding.
Looking around left and right, the doors and windows of the yard have been blocked by stones and other objects, and the yard is also made of bluestone and yellow mud, there is no wood, and it is impossible to burn the other party out with fire, obviously this foothold has been carefully selected.
Under the order of Cheng Laohu, the two soldiers got off their horses and carried knives, climbed over the courtyard wall in the front yard, and were just about to jump down Two feather arrows came out of the house.
"What a strong archery!"
Chang Wei was taken aback, he was an archer himself, so he could naturally see how subtle the strength and angle of these two arrows were.
Yan Ruyu said: "Master, it's the magic arrow Chen Canyu!"
As soon as the words fell, the three soldiers who had climbed the courtyard wall from the other side also saw the fate of their companions, and they hesitated for a moment not knowing which way to jump, and it was at this moment that three arrows were fired from the house to kill them.
Chang Wei snorted coldly: "On all sides, I don't believe that you are really a magic arrow!"
As soon as the words fell, the four knights had jumped over the broken low wall in the backyard, and in the moonlight they heard the sound of sharp objects cutting through the flesh and bones, and the four horses fell to the ground with a scream, and as soon as the knights landed, they screamed, and then someone threw out several throwing knives and shot the four soldiers to the ground.
Chang Wei hurriedly looked over, only to see a pile of black, angular things on the ground.
"Tribulus terrestris? Xu Hongru was really thoughtful, and he took thistle with him when he ran away. ”
Tribulus terrestris is a kind of iron spike spreading obstacles, there are four iron thorns stretched out, as long as it lands, there is a thorn facing upward, the camp often scatters the tribulus terrestris on the ground, I didn't expect Xu Hongru's men to use the thistle terrestris here.
Immediately, the six soldiers who climbed over the wall in the front yard were also shot by Chen Canyu's arrows, and they lost fourteen companions in an instant, which was definitely not a small blow, especially since Chang Wei's men now only had more than a hundred people, and he immediately stopped the offensive.
The other party has Xu Hongru and Chen Canyu, two masters, and it is not enough to kill all these 100 soldiers in one meal, so at this time they can only be masters.
Let Han Chai and Enlightenment stay in the front and rear courtyards, so that the musketeers will shoot and kill when they see the enemy coming out. Twelve people quietly touched the courtyard, once they encountered the enemy, the Beidou Jiuzi used a formation to besiege Xu Hongru, which was also Chang Wei's confidence to dare to rush in; Chang Wei and Tang Jinyi dealt with Chen Canyu, Tang Jinyi is a master of hidden weapons, which can be called a humanoid weapon, once anyone is close to him, they must be extremely careful; Chang Wei has a bow and arrows and a short musket, no matter how far or near he is aimed, it will be difficult to get out, Yan Ruyu is responsible for dealing with the little minions, and answering everyone.
After preparing to stop, Chang Wei shot a few rockets from the fast backyard door, and Tang Jinyi threw a few stones and a few torches into it with that strange hidden weapon technique.
Although Chang Wei had long known the essentials of the Tang Sect's secret weapons, and he had also seen Tang Jinyi throw the secret weapons many times, every time he saw it, he was amazed by the gorgeous technique, and sighed that this was not martial arts but art.
The stones and the torches left his hand almost at the same time, but their direction and speed were very different, and every change in his slender fingers seemed so agile and stretched, as if dreamlike, that it was truly pleasing to the eye.
As the torches were thrown into it, the backyard door was lit up, and suddenly, there was a pop and several feathered arrows extinguished the torches.
"Shoot!" With Yin An's calm order, the crackling gunshots rang out.
As soon as the smoke of gunpowder rose, Chang Wei's ten people shot into the courtyard like arrows. (To be continued.) )
