At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 95
Under the concerted efforts of everyone, the second attack of the Khitan cavalry was repulsed, but at a great price. Gao Bufan died and one was injured, and Cui Hu suffered even more. Three deaths and seven injuries, including Cui Hu himself was also slightly injured, and his morale was hit hard in an instant.

After all, the servants of Flying Eagle Racecourse participated in the battle against the bandit Zhang Jincheng, killed people and saw blood, so their emotions were relatively stable, but they carried the dead and injured to the back for resettlement and treatment in grief and indignation.

The situation on Cui's side was going to be much more chaotic. The seven injured fell in a pool of blood, screaming and groaning in pain, and the three dead were still lying there. His face was pale, his eyes showed fear, and some people were even trembling, almost unable to hold their weapons firmly.

Seeing this, Gao Bufan couldn't help screaming that it was not good. If Cui's people continued in this state, they might not be able to withstand the next attack of the Khitan cavalry. Go to stop the bleeding and bandage." After speaking, he took off his outer clothes to cover a dead man.

The Cui disciples were already in a state of disarray, but after hearing Gao Bufan's steady and calm instructions, they came to their senses, hurriedly carried the wounded to the back for treatment, and the three dead were also carried down and covered with clothes. head and face.

"Brother Cui, are you okay?" Gao Bufan asked with concern.

Cui Hu's left shoulder was scratched by a sharp arrow, and the blood flowed profusely. At this moment, the hand covering the wound was covered with blood, and his sleeve was also soaked. Take care of me, beware of the Khitans coming to attack."

"No, the bleeding is too much, it needs to be stopped immediately!" Gao Bufan couldn't help but tore off the clothes on Cui Huo's shoulders, took out a pill that Yu Juluo had given him, crushed it and sprinkled it on the wound, he had to say, The efficacy of this medicine was indeed miraculous, it stopped the bleeding at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Gao Bufan was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly bandaged the wound, heaved a sigh of relief, "It should be fine!"

Cui Hu was both grateful and ashamed: "Thank you, Changqing, I can't help you, but add to the chaos."

"Don't say that, Brother Cui has taken care of you along the way!" Gao Bufan said solemnly.

At this time Brother Gao Shixiong suddenly shouted loudly: "Boss Changqing, the Khitans seem to be attacking again."

Everyone was shocked, and looked down the hillside, and they saw those Khitan cavalry riding around on horseback, this time they were not divided into two teams, but divided into multiple teams.Gao Shiheng frowned and scolded: "Zhiniang thief, what are these Khitan dogs doing? Are they forming a formation?"

Xu Song said solemnly: "No, the Khitan may plan to divide their troops into multiple groups and go around the back of the hillside to attack. If this is the case, it will be even more difficult for us to defend."

"It's possible!" Gao Bufan nodded calmly, pointed at the Khitan cavalryman who was shouting something, and said: "That guy should be their leader."

"That's right, that person is a centurion, and he is assigning tasks to his subordinates. They are indeed planning to go around the hillside and attack, everyone, be careful!" Cui Hu came over at some point and reminded with a pale face.

"Eh, brother Cui can understand Khitan language?" Gao Bufan asked in surprise.

Cui Hu nodded and said: "I can barely understand it. I have dealt with Khitan people many times, so I learned some daily expressions."

Gao Bufan suddenly said: "So that's the case, by the way, Brother Cui has a three-stone strong bow?"

Cui Hu shook his head and said: "I can't wield the three-stone bow, and none of my subordinates can do it, so what's the use of it... Eh, could it be that Chang Qing wants to shoot that Khitan centurion?"

Gao Bufan nodded and said: "As the saying goes, shoot a horse first when shooting a man, and capture the king first when capturing a thief. If you can kill that centurion, maybe this Khitan cavalry will retreat by itself, but the distance is a bit far, about four hundred steps. , you need three stone bow strength to do it."

Cui Hu's eyes lit up, and he shook his head regretfully and said: "It turns out that Changqing can also make a three-stone bow, which is amazing, but it's a pity that there is no three-stone bow!"

"I have it!" A voice as crisp as a yellow warbler's coming out of the valley suddenly sounded from behind, and everyone turned around to look, and they couldn't help but show surprise.

The person standing behind everyone at this moment is none other than Gongsun Yingxiu. Under the slanting sunlight, he looks like a concubine or fairy. The woman is so seductive, she is definitely a beauty and a disaster.

The well-dressed servant girl guarded Gongsun Yingxiu with a long sword in her hand. She was full of heroism, and she was obviously a practicing family, but she didn't know how skilled she was.

Gao Bufan's heart moved, and he said in surprise: "I have heard that Master Gongsun is excellent at dancing swords, but I didn't expect to be able to make a bow with three stones. Master Gongsun really hides it!"

Gongsun Yingxiu covered her mouth with a soft smile and said, "Young Master Gao misunderstood, although I have a three-stone strong bow, it was a gift from someone else. It is only used as a decoration on weekdays, and it has never been used at all."

Gongsun Yingxiu covered her mouth and smiled, and immediately looked straight at the eyes of many people present, Gao Bufan couldn't help being in a daze for a moment, sighing secretly that this girl's appearance is indeed too enchanting, every frown and smile are so touching, and she is very charming. Naturally, without any affectation.

"So that's it, where is this bow, please borrow it!" Gao Bufan cupped his hands and said politely.

Gongsun Yingxiu pointed down the hill with regret: "In the carriage, I was in a hurry to escape just now, but I didn't have time to get it. There are some musical instruments and music scores that my slave usually uses in the carriage!"

Everyone was immediately disappointed when they heard the words, there were hundreds of Khitan cavalry stalking at the foot of the hillside, with strong bows and sharp arrows, and horses with sharp knives, running down the hillside to get the bow at this time would undoubtedly mean death. hedgehog.

Gao Bufan looked as usual, he set up the awning to visually measure the distance of the carriage, Gao Shixiong lost his voice when he saw this: "Boss Changqing, you don't really want to go down to get the bow, do you?"

Cui Hu also quickly persuaded: "It's too dangerous, Changqing must not take risks."

Gao Bufan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't do things that I'm not sure about. By the way, Brother Cui, didn't we bring a lot of iron pots? Take them out for everyone to use as shields, and make another one." Mix some tea leaves with clothes and light them, the bigger the smoke, the better!"

Cui Hu's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said: "It's a good idea, Changqing. It shouldn't be too far from Liucheng. The garrison there might come to check if they see the smoke column. That's great, let's do it."

Soon, dozens of iron pots were brought up, and someone lit a sack of tea, and then threw a few old clothes into the fire, thick black smoke rose into the sky.

Gongsun Yingxiu couldn't help but look brilliant, and secretly said: "This son is really smart, no wonder Changsun Sheng loves him so much."

At this time, the Khitan people at the foot of the horse slope saw the plume of smoke soaring into the sky, and their emotions obviously became anxious. The centurion headed by waved a knife and shouted, and those Khitan cavalry rushed towards the hillside aggressively, and they were divided into four groups. Each team has about thirty riders, two of which attack from the front, and the other two circle around the back of the hillside.

"Ready to fight!" Gao Bufan calmly shouted, staring at the carriage at the foot of the mountain like an eagle. Half of the Khitan cavalry went around to the back of the hillside, and the front force was reduced by half. Obviously, they were going down the mountain to take the three stone bows. great opportunity.

The Khitan centurion seems to be very afraid of Gao Bufan's archery skills, so he has been directing the battle from a position far away from the range of the bow and arrow, otherwise it would not be so troublesome!
At this time, the two teams of Khitan cavalry attacking from the front had already approached the foot of the hillside. They still used the previous tactics and charged obliquely towards the hillside. There was a large gap between the horses. horse.

"Release the arrow!" Gao Bufan ordered decisively, and everyone on the mountain shot their arrows one after another, but it really had little effect like last time.

The first wave of arrows shot down the mountain, and the Khitan cavalry also started to fight back. As soon as they raised their hands, the sharp arrows swished up. The accuracy and strength were not comparable to those of Cui's children and the servants of Feiying Racecourse. Yes, after all, people have been immersed in this way since childhood.

Seeing the Khitan cavalry shooting arrows, without Gao Bufan's order, the people in the front row raised the iron pots one after another, only heard a clanging sound, those sharp arrows hit the bottom of the pot with sparks flying everywhere, but failed to cause any damage.

Seeing that the iron pot was effective, the disciples of the Cui clan couldn't help but their confidence increased greatly, and their morale rose again. They shot back with arrows one after another, and those without bows picked up stones and threw them down hard. Taking the opportunity to shoot three arrows in a row, three people were killed again, Xu Song also shot one person, and Gao Shixiong wounded one person.

"Hey, the Khitan people are too poor, their arrows are made of spikes, otherwise our iron pot may not be able to withstand it." Gao Shiheng laughed triumphantly.

At this moment, a blue shadow suddenly rushed down the mountain like a wind and lightning, and everyone took a closer look, only to find that it was Gao Bufan who rushed down on a big green horse!
"Ah!" Everyone on the hillside exclaimed almost simultaneously.

The Khitan cavalry at the foot of the hillside were stunned for two seconds before reacting. At this time, Gao Bufan had already rushed to the half slope on the big green horse. Hissing, the speed increased by a few minutes, and a few sporadic arrows landed behind its buttocks.

"Stop him!" the Khitan centurion thought that Gao Bufan was going to take the opportunity to break through, so he immediately shouted.

The two nearest Khitan cavalry rushed forward immediately, rode their horses and raised their sabers, screaming ferociously, anyway, Gao Bufan couldn't understand what they were shouting, probably it was a curse word like "Zhitie Niang".

zheng...

The long saber was out of its sheath, and the blue shadow flashed past with the saber's light. The big green horse carried Gao Bufan through the two Khitan cavalrymen, and the two heads flew up into the sky, and the two streams of blood splashed into the air, as if The west-slanting sun was dyed red, and the picture was full of a violent beauty.

Two Khitan horses carried two bloody headless corpses to the half slope, and then fell down with a crash. At this time, the two heads that were thrown into the air also fell to the ground one after another, rolling down the mountain!

Frenzy, this picture is too violent!
