The two "peasants" never expected that the support from the other side would arrive before their own support arrived!
Five more horses, and five more knights.
While galloping on his horse, he drew his bow and arrows, preparing to shoot the two "peasants" outside the woods!
The two "peasants" didn't panic at all. They raised their crossbows and fired without waiting for the opponent's riding bow to come into range.
The opponents were all guys with excellent equestrian skills, and they all got down on their horses.
What's the use of firing a crossbow far away? If you dodge the blow, the two "peasants" will be reflected into hedgehogs immediately.
Unfortunately, they overestimated the attraction of war horses to each other.
The two "peasants" didn't care about the life or death of the war horses. They didn't shoot people, but only horses!
There were two squeaks, and the two horses fell down in response. Both had crossbows in their chests, which showed how accurate the other's shots were.
However, the two knights who broke the war horse were really powerful. When the war horse fell, they had already taken out their feet from the stirrups, hugged their heads, huddled up, and rolled out on the ground with the help of forward inertia. Some distance away, a carp jumped up.
At the same time, the remaining three knights had raised their bows and arrows, preparing to shoot the two "peasants" who had missed their crossbows.
When the two "peasants" saw something bad, they didn't even care whether there might be an ambush in the woods, so they sneaked in and out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the woods, two arrows flew toward him.
Fortunately, the two guys were smart and ducked behind the big tree as soon as they entered the woods, so they didn't get hit.
Soon, the five knights outside arrived.
This time they didn't all go into the woods. The two horseless guys stayed outside while the remaining three knights rushed in.
The three "peasants" who entered the woods in front were also unambiguous. Boom boom was a few crossbows.
The three knights were so frightened that they quickly rolled off their saddles and dismounted, and each found a big tree to hide in.
Although the woods are sparse, they are still very unfriendly to crossbows.
Both sides were looking for flaws in the other's movement, but each shot a few arrows, but none of them hit the target.
Eight against five, the opponent had every advantage.
Especially the two "peasants" who entered the woods later were like sandwich biscuits, caught in the middle, and were not in an ordinary danger.
A "farmer" was injured.
Under attack from the front and back, if he wasn't paying attention, his exposed thigh was hit by an arrow, and he lost his ability to move on the spot.
"Haha, I have injured one of you, surround him and kill him!"
Li Xing was anxious.
He is one of the five "peasants".
I originally thought that with five people following Bald Jiang, no matter how awesome the mastermind behind the scenes was, they would be able to handle it for the time being.
Unexpectedly, the opponent did not follow the routine, and in two waves, a total of ten knights came.
What is this concept?
Even if a town is patrolling, it is difficult to have ten experienced cavalry under its command.
Of course, except for the patrol inspector named Yun.
Li Xing has followed Yun Chao for so long, and has seen more than one bandit, and has killed many bandits with his own hands.
However, Li Xing had only encountered a force of ten cavalrymen once.
And the other party is not a bandit, but Qingyang Camp!
Now the other party sent ten cavalry all at once, which shows how powerful they are. Could it be that the water bandits from Nanhu took action?
It shouldn't be. The water bandits in Nanhu were almost crippled in the battle at Wo Niuzhai. How could they have such strong capital?
Even during the sneak attack on Wo Niu Village that day, the Nanhu water bandits had never seen any cavalry?
Li Xing didn't have time to think too much, and they were really at a disadvantage when shooting against the archers who had the upper hand.
The rate of fire is not as fast as the opponent's. Every time it is fired, the crossbow must be re-cocked. This gap is simply the perfect opportunity for the opponent to snipe and kill itself.
Therefore, Li Xing and the others did not dare to fire casually. Even if the opponent shot three arrows, they could not fire a crossbow.
Damn, you must practice bow and arrow hard when you go back, using a crossbow is so frustrating!
Phew!
With a hum, another subordinate was hit by an arrow.
Originally, the number of people was a disadvantage, but now that two people were injured, Li Xing's disadvantage became even more obvious!
Damn your legs, why don’t you come?
Li Xing was so anxious that his head was buzzing.
It's been so long since the signal was sent out, why haven't the guys behind you caught up yet?
Li Xing didn't know that the cavalry supporting them was also in trouble.
The leader of the team was none other than Yun Chao's ace scout, Li Dashan.
Li Dashan's accomplishments in tracking are the best among Yun Chao's boys.
Li Xing was not worried at all that he would be lost.
However, if Heidiu didn't follow him, he was blocked by a dozen guys.
Li Dashan's eyes were very sharp, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink when he was still hundreds of meters away.
He smelled something dangerous.
"Everyone, be careful, these guys are probably officers and soldiers!"
Li Dashan was really impressed by the officers and soldiers.
Especially the scouts of officers and soldiers.
That day in Woniu Mountain, his good brother Xiaosanzi was killed by the scouts of Qingyang Camp.
Li Dashan himself also had two life-and-death battles with the Qingyang Camp's scouts.
The smell of officers and soldiers has long been engraved in the depths of his mind.
Now looking at the energy of the blockers, Li Dashan knew that these guys were not bandits!
Even though the other party was wearing black hoods, Li Dashan could still see through their true nature at a glance.
boom!
boom!
boom!
Without saying a word, Li Dashan took out his cannon and fired three of them.
This was an urgent signal for help. Li Dashan not only came with his Yishi scouts, but also came with Yishi's cavalry behind him.
This is the result of Yun Chao reminding Li Xing.
Li Xing originally thought that it would be enough to have Li Dashan and a few scouts following him.
It was only after Yun Chao reminded me that I added a layer of insurance.
When the other party saw that Li Dashan had sent out the signal, his face was calm at first, but he suddenly lost his composure.
Well, Li Dashan guessed that he looked calm. He was wearing a black hood, so no expression could be seen.
With a whoop, a group of guys blocking the road began to run away.
Why are you not running, waiting for reinforcements to come again?
It didn't matter if he ran away, Li Dashan was even more certain that the opponent was an officer and a soldier!
It was this kind of virtue that the officers and soldiers of Qingyang Camp fled that day in Woniuzhai.
"Follow me, be careful not to get distracted!"
When cavalry chases infantry, don't be too simple. A distance of a hundred meters can be reached in a blink of an eye.
It's a pity that the other party is not stupid and cannot race with the cavalry on the road.
There was a forest not far away, and before Li Dashan could catch up, these guys got in one after another.
Li Dashan was a little embarrassed.
Should we go in and hunt down these guys blocking the road, or should we go to support Li Xing and the others?
After just a slight hesitation, Li Dashan made a decision.
If you hunt them down, you may be able to catch them alive.
However, if something happens to Li Xing and the others, even if he has great achievements, Brother Chao will not give him a good lesson!
