Brutal touch

Chapter 24: The soldiers in Baiyun Peak are trapped and about to die. The enemy is defeated with a crossbow while hiking on the mountain road.

The Governor of Baiyunfeng cursed: "These savages are really good at picking fights, but it happened at this time." Then he said to Si Yuchangshi: "Organize manpower to resist the savages first, and we can only talk about anything later." Sima Ming was next to him The people used the sound of the trumpet as an order to gather people to defend the enemy.

However, after the trumpet sounded three times, when the three of them looked back, there were only about a hundred people gathered around them. The remaining people were either immersed in sadness and could not go there, or they heard the trumpet sound but saw that the people around them were indifferent, so they did not go there thinking that it was not a crime to punish everyone.

The three of them looked down from the top and saw the savages approaching at the bottom of the mountain. There were about hundreds of them. The governor sighed: "I didn't expect the savages to attack at this time. If the savages attack the military camp in this situation, what will happen to the soldiers of my first battalion?" Aren't you a lamb to be slaughtered?" Chang Shi suddenly saw a group of people and horses rushing to Baiyun Peak with carts and baggage. He hurriedly asked the governor to look at that position and said: "Commander, look, the military supplies from behind are arriving at this time. "The governor hurriedly ordered Chief Shi to say: "Chang Shi, you have the highest prestige in the camp. When you go back, you can mobilize as many people as you can in the camp, and then immediately go to rescue the baggage troops. If this batch of military supplies is robbed, even if this time If we hold on, the whole battalion at Baiyun Peak will also freeze to death and starve to death here."

Chang Shi accepted the order and immediately rushed back to the camp to look for subordinates who could still obey the order. Seeing the savages approaching, the governor had no choice but to form a formation with more than a hundred of his men to deal with them. The Chu Kingdom is naturally aggressive. Although one-on-one duels are the most popular among the Chu Kingdom people, the Chu Kingdom people also discovered that if multiple people use special tactics to By cultivating your stance and skills, you can defeat the small with more, and the weak with strong force. The formations practiced in the military camp include a large formation of a hundred people, but the techniques are complicated. If someone leaves the corresponding position too far or there is a deviation in the operation of the techniques, the formation will be self-defeating. Therefore, although the power of the hundred-man formation is terrifying, how can we guarantee that no one among the hundred people will make mistakes? Therefore, a hundred-man formation is not practical. Military camps often use three to five people to form formations, which is convenient for daily practice. Secondly, it is flexible to advance and retreat, making it easier to fight at any time.

The governor ordered his men to form Sancai formations one after another, not to annihilate the enemy, but to temporarily block the barbarians at the entrance of the military camp. However, when the barbarians saw that there were only more than forty Sancai formations in front of them, they knew that the camp was empty and avoided the Sancai one after another. The formation went to kill inside the camp.

The governor sighed and had no choice but to abandon the Sancai Formation and draw his sword to fight with the barbarians. However, after all, the manpower of more than a hundred people was limited. After the savage charge, many savages had already rushed into the army. The soldiers in the camp were not fed and warm, and the Qi itself was not enough. Secondly, their emotions had just collapsed, and they had no defense against the enemy. In his heart, when he saw the sudden arrival of the savages on the third day, he was already in a state of confusion. Now he only had two or three points of strength left. Suddenly, the savages were like tigers entering the flock of sheep, shouting for death.

After the leading savage Qianhu Duoli climbed up the mountain, he observed the movements of the reinforcements from the Chuguo side from a high position. He was overjoyed when he suddenly saw the Chuguo's baggage troops going up the mountain at the foot of the mountain. He quickly dispatched a team of troops to intercept and kill him.

Here Chang Shi reluctantly gathered less than a hundred people, not daring to waste time, so he had to rush to support the baggage troops first. Within a few miles, the barbarian troops arrived from behind, so Chang Shi had to rush to fight.

Moreover, the baggage force was led by the Fourth Young Master. The transport capacity on the front line was limited, and some dandy boys often used the transport capacity to transport their own personal belongings, resulting in further shortage of military supplies. The Fourth Young Master knew that Baiyun Peak was closely involved, so he naturally reduced his belongings again and again, and spent a lot of extra savings to purchase a lot of military supplies. As soon as we arrived at the bottom of the mountain, we saw a group of crows flying over Baiyun Peak, not daring to stop. When the Fourth Young Master saw it, he ordered the people accompanying him who had good ears to carefully identify whether there was any sound on the mountain.

The people accompanying him took the order, lay down on the ground and listened for a while and reported back: "On the top of the mountain, which should be the location of the Baiyun Peak camp, there was the sound of someone crying." After hearing this, the Fourth Young Master knew that something was wrong, so he ordered: " You follow the method I gave you, adjust the bed crossbow to combat status, and the group slowly advances towards the Baiyunfeng camp in a combat-ready attitude."

A follower asked: "This road is the road we often take to transport supplies. Nothing has ever happened. Now that we are almost at Baiyun Peak, why should we be so nervous all of a sudden?"

The Fourth Young Master scolded: "Confused! How can common sense be used to decide matters in the army? The sound of crying in the camp is obviously something happened. We know that the savages don't know? What if they take the opportunity to attack our Baiyunfeng camp?" , being condescending, our baggage troops are completely exposed to their sight. Do you want me to teach you such a simple truth?" Everyone followed the order and loaded the arrows into the bed crossbow according to the Fourth Young Master's method, and adjusted it As long as the target appears, the person operating the bed crossbow can launch it by pressing the button.

The Fourth Young Master walked along the mountain road when he suddenly heard the cry of killing. As expected, more than two hundred savages rushed towards the baggage troops. "Fire arrows!" The Fourth Young Master gave the order, and hundreds of crossbow arrows came straight towards the savages. The savages didn't know what it was. When they saw crossbow arrows coming towards them, they used Qi Yun's body-protecting skills to resist them. Unexpectedly, each crossbow arrow was so powerful that the body-protecting skills were immediately defeated. In an instant, a whole army of savages After a third of the way, the remaining savages saw that something was wrong and immediately turned around and ran away. The Fourth Young Master ordered them to continue shooting. The savages left dozens more corpses on the way to escape. "A meritorious service has been accomplished? Is this a meritorious service?" The people under the Fourth Young Master looked at the corpses of the savages in this area and seemed a little unbelievable. These nobles who were transporting military supplies in the rear were either of low means and could not enter the battlefield, or their means were passable, but I couldn't stand the bitter cold of being stationed on the frontier. Although this is comfortable and safe, it naturally has no chance of being beheaded, but even the merit of beheading frontline soldiers is not easy to obtain. As for the corpses of the barbarians in this area, as long as they are beheaded, they will be rewarded for being promoted to an official position. However, the people under the Fourth Young Master obviously have not yet been able to distinguish whether this is reality or fiction.

"One team goes to cut off the head, and the rest are on guard. The one who operates the bed crossbow will receive first-class merit, and the people guarding the bed crossbow will receive second-class merit." The Fourth Young Master said loudly on his horse. After the Fourth Young Master shouted, everyone realized that what had happened just now was not a dream, and a group of people hurriedly stepped forward to cut off the head. The Fourth Young Master’s order was to collectively record the heads of these savages, so there was no need to compete for the heads. Although the merits were divided into first and second levels, these savages did not actually rush to the team at all. Although the Fourth Young Master was said to be guarding the bed. Crossbow, in fact, a group of people were deducted out of thin air just by standing there, how could they not be willing to do so.

The Fourth Young Master and his entourage were originally lifeless along the way. Everyone knew that transporting baggage was a hard job with little merit, and the leader was a man who could not practice Qi. Therefore, I could talk to the Fourth Young Master as little as possible along the way. However, after the first team came back from cutting off the heads, the chat box of the first team suddenly opened up.

"So these are the savages they call. It seems they have no means at all. They say they are invulnerable and can eat human flesh alive. But what if we see them today? I haven't seen clearly what they look like. Hula la fell. There was a large area under the ground, and then it started to run back, and another large area collapsed." A nobleman came up to the Fourth Young Master and said. After saying this, the nobles around him laughed.

"I remember a few years ago, Mr. Tongma personally led the troops, but he only beheaded more than 2,000 people. A group of people almost blew Mr. Tongma into the sky. What a pillar of strength, the pillar of the country, in short, how disgusting. Come on, it’s not like our Fourth Young Master, who usually doesn’t show off his integrity, but with a simple move today, he will know who is the loyal minister who touches the country." Another noble also came over and praised.

The Fourth Young Master thought: "It seems that this thing is not unacceptable in the eyes of those small nobles. Also, their lives are harder and they have more things to consider. Who can make them meritorious and who can make them win?" That's what they like most." Then he smiled and said: "What are these? In the future, all these hundreds of bed crossbows will be set up on Baiyun Peak. It will not be easy for you to kill a few savages every year. When the time comes, you will not be treated badly by the country. You," all the nobles applauded after hearing these words. The atmosphere among the group was immediately lifted.

After walking for more than ten miles, I suddenly saw the corpses of more than a hundred soldiers who had touched the country in front of me. The first one had more than ten wounds on his body, and the knife in his hand was already in pieces. Someone recognized him and reported to the Fourth Young Master: "This is the long history of Baiyunfeng Camp! Except for some savages, there are all soldiers who have violated the country."

Seeing this scene, the Fourth Young Master understood that it was Chang Shi who brought troops to pick up the heavy troops, but they were attacked by savages. The savages killed Chang Shi and his troops and then attacked his own troops. Why did Chang Shi only bring so much with him? Few people? The Fourth Young Master realized that something might have happened on Baiyun Peak, and could not stay too long at this time, so he had to take off his scarlet hat and put it on Chang Shi, so as not to find everyone's bodies later.

Duo Li saw that the troops dispatched by the troops intercepted and killed the rescue troops from Baiyun Peak. He thought that the troops with heavy supplies were like turtles in a jar, but he didn't expect that his troops were defeated in an instant, with such tragic casualties. Duo Li naturally didn't know about the bed crossbow. He thought that there must be experts in the team that was escorting the baggage of Huiguo this time, so he blew the trombone and ordered the savages around to stop fighting and seize the time to set fire to destroy as much damage as possible to Huiguo Baiyun. Peak camp.

However, the savages led by Duo Li came from various tribes. The savages from other tribes were originally dissatisfied with Duo Li's command and were only temporarily sent by Duo Li. Seeing that his command could not move, Duo Li had no choice but to leave with his own soldiers, leaving the savages from other tribes beating around the camp like headless flies.

The governor of Baiyunfeng led more than ten people to fight to the death, and finally died of exhaustion from the rebel army. There were only three or four people left around Sima, and they were seriously injured. Sima looked up to the sky and sighed: "The Baiyunfeng camp is now destroyed. How can I live in this world with no face!" Then he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, when suddenly several crossbow arrows flew towards him. , beating the savage in front of him to pieces.
