Fan Jui suddenly opened his eyes, and he seemed to hear a rustling sound.
The voice was very light, as if there was nothing there. It seemed as if I had heard wrongly.
After all, there are many animals in this desert, such as lizards and snakes, but it's winter, shouldn't these animals hibernate?
Fan Jue closed his eyes again, but luck began slowly. A pair of white and tender palms gradually began to heat up.
He opened his eyes again. He suddenly smiled. A dry splendens bush in front moved forward.
Just when he was about to take out his whistle and blow it, suddenly there was a buzzing sound. In the silent night, this shaking sound instantly woke up many alert people.
They were all too familiar with the sound. This is the sound of a powerful crossbow.
The leader of Black Tiger Mountain, Man Tianyun, led five hundred people and started dismounting in the middle of the night. It crawled over bit by bit under the camouflage of grass.
The purpose is to hide from the enemy, and when they get close, they will immediately attack.
Unexpectedly, there was actually a tough guy among these people. When Fan Zhui opened his eyes for the first time, the clouds in the sky knew that he had been discovered.
Make an immediate decision and send someone to deliver the message. The order to fire was given.
Just as Fan Zui opened his eyes for the second time. Suddenly, arrows came whistling like locusts.
This time the attack was on the Fan family’s headquarters camp. There were about a thousand people behind the elongated camel shelter. The goal is very clear.
Different squads attack in different directions. In fact, it means mobilizing people from all over the place and dispersing them everywhere. Then focus on solving these seven people.
Fan Zhui didn't expect that the person opposite him was also a tough guy who was used to rolling on the blade. He just opened his eyes and immediately launched an attack.
At this time, a short steel arrow without a tail fin had arrived in front of the front door.
If the arrow had no wings, it would have very little resistance, be faster, and be more powerful. And the sound is much quieter.
The outline is also small and difficult to spot. By the time you see it clearly, it's very close. But it will lose its accuracy at long distances. After all, the stability is not good.
The current distance is very close, less than thirty meters, so the flight is still very accurate.
When arrows were fired towards him, Fan Zui would use the whip wrapped around his waist to knock them down as a habit.
However, just by listening to the roar of the wind, he knew that it could not be intercepted.
In the light of the calcium carbide fire, he twisted his waist suddenly and fell backward.
The wingless steel arrow swished. He wiped his cheek and flew over. A strong gust of wind blew past my face.
Those around him were not so lucky. Many people were still asleep when they were shot by steel crossbows. The huge kinetic energy sent them flying back.
After these horse thieves were collected, Duolun City sent a team of supervisors to supervise discipline. At the same time, they also updated their equipment. After all, these horse thieves will have to work for Mr. Yang in the future. Nothing can happen without someone taking advantage of it.
Firearms cannot be given, but cold weapons can still be given.
These bandits were all assigned various armors and relatively high-quality weapons captured in previous wars, including some strong bows and crossbows. But many of these horse thieves have poor shooting skills. After all, archers need long-term practice and talent.
In order to speed up the process and reduce the difficulty, they were directly equipped with ratchet-loaded steel crossbows.
As long as the crossbow can be cocked, an eight-year-old naughty boy can kill a ten-year-old swordsman. The steel crossbow is very powerful.
These steel crossbows were produced by Xincheng Arsenal, and the spring steel used was made from scraps transferred over. Performance is very good.
Because the force is too great, it can no longer be wound with the help of foot pedals and waist strength. It can only be wound with a ratchet.
This kind of steel crossbow is also a threat to Jiannu's triple armor. At a distance of fifty meters or even seventy meters, there is a very high probability of being shot through.
Now that they have taken action, the horse thieves are no longer hiding. Just throw away the dead grass and pretend to get up from the ground. The first row is kneeling, the second row is standing, and the third row is in reserve. Three consecutive shots were fired, and the crossbow arrows were shot out intensively.
At this time, the sudden attack caused many people to panic and run around. Some people stood up sleepily, some were looking for weapons, and some were observing where the enemy was. There was noisy chaos.
This is the middle area of the camel caravan, and the sound of the crossbows is not loud. There are still many people who haven't woken up. If it was a musket, a huge gunshot, everyone must have woken up.
As a result, many people heard the sound of crossbow strings in a daze, and as soon as they got up, they were shocked to the core.
In the blink of an eye, countless people were shot down, and the rest finally woke up completely.
The camp was attacked. Like headless flies, they hurriedly hid behind the lying camel. Use the camel's body to block crossbow bolts. In the meantime, quickly find weapons.
They knew that these people would rush over after the crossbow bolts were shot.
At this time, Fan Zhui had already rolled several times and got behind the innermost circle of camels. Hiding. He looked around and saw that there were still two people he had brought. Four people had just been shot to death.
He was too confident in himself and too trusting. He slept outside the camp to provide timely warning. As a result, when the enemy did attack, he suffered heavy losses.
Fan Zhui felt agitated. This time he went to Shenyang with a mission. These people were all carefully selected by him. Four were now lost in a morning's raid.
And in the past two days, he also vaguely felt that something was wrong in the camel team. Although it was only intuition, his intuition was very accurate due to years of fighting experience.
He was a little suspicious of the three little camel teams recruited this time. He didn't know if there were horse thieves' insiders among them.
These attacks were all too coincidental. He even suspected that someone was watching him secretly and that he had been exposed.
At this time, the big shopkeeper also reacted. At this time, he was commanding the fight against these horse thieves.
"You two, hurry up and bring the blunderbuss, and bring the archers over."
The big shopkeeper is the apparent leader of the camel team, and he is also a veteran of the camel trail. He knew not to panic when encountering horse thieves. As long as the team is not disrupted, they will be able to repel the horse thieves. After all, there are two thousand people in this camel team.
But at this time, all four parts of the camel team were attacked, especially the Fan family's headquarters. Because we camped in the lee behind the dunes. They are all arranged in a long strip. At this point, it was cut into several sections.
Soon the servants and guards who partially restored the organization took out the muskets on the camels. Start shooting with the horse thieves. Their conditions are better than those of horse thieves. There are camels for cover after all.
At this time, Zhuzhu took the manpower and ran all the way. The horse thieves are chasing behind.
"Captain, don't shoot. I'm one of my own. It's me."
