"Brother Chang, I have to ask you to take action and shoot the flying falcon."
Liu Zhirou spoke in an understatement, her smooth cheeks reflecting the remaining light of the sunset, shining with a strange color.
Ever since the interception at Liulinkou failed and Chang Siguo shot an arrow into the river, he had collected information about Chang Siguo's achievements from different channels. He knew Chang Siguo's archery skills and abilities better than most cultivators in Sihuang City. deep.
During this attack, he deliberately asked Chang Siguo to serve as a guard by his side, so he had the idea of relying on Chang Siguo's marksmanship.
After marching long distances during the day and going deep into the Beirong territory, it is inevitable that you will encounter falcons released by the Beirong people.
With sweeping views across the prairie, hiding places are rarely found.
This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for Sihuang City to launch sneak attacks on Beirong tribes.
Seeing Chang Siguo holding the arrow in his hand, but not taking action immediately, but looking at the people in front of him, Liu Zhirou understood Chang Siguo's worry, took out a piece of paper from his sleeve, shook it open, and said with a smile, "You can go ahead, I have General Fang’s warrant, it’s time to announce it to them.”
Chang Siguo glanced at the signature on the warrant and nodded, without asking Liu Zhirou what Yunshan Mist Mask was up to.
He tapped his foot lightly and his body flew away.
He had some knowledge of the falcon's habits and ran towards the west where there were many people.
The three captains were all experienced men. After hearing Mr. Liu's instructions to Mr. Chang, they ran out more than ten steps and went to the areas where their respective soldiers were leading, shouting orders: "No soldiers are allowed to shoot arrows into the air." Falcon.”
Some of the soldiers on guard had already noticed the black dots flying in the distance in advance. They were talking about raising their bows and arrows in preparation. When the black dots came closer and flew lower, they concentrated on shooting. They heard the shouts of orders coming one after another. They were confused, but they all obeyed and put down their bows and arrows.
As the black dot in the sky approached, it turned out to be a majestic falcon, spreading its wings and circling slowly in the sky.
Against the background of the blue cloudy sky, the dark-colored falcon looks like a moving silhouette, overlooking the snowy field, about twenty or thirty feet above the ground. It starts patrolling from the west where there are many people and war horses gathering. After one circle, it starts patrolling. Will return north to report the news.
The four cultivators have all heard of the illustrious reputation that the rising star often thinks about.
The battle in Bei Maple City was so stunning that it would not be an exaggeration to say that it made Nanping famous.
They all had their own channels to learn about the real battle situation. They were a little nervous at the moment. They looked up at the flat hair in the sky that put them in a desperate situation. They just hoped that Chang Siguo wouldn't miss the target at the critical moment.
Falcons that go out on patrol like this are different from falcons that hover in the sky during battles.
They fly higher and are alert, and the snowy field is open and the wind is strong. If one arrow fails to achieve success and scares the falcon to fly higher, there will be no chance for a second arrow.
As for the soldiers, there is no need to count on it. It is impossible for the Falcon to lower its height and let people shoot it.
How could they bother to ask Liu Baiyi about the reason at this time?
I heard Liu Baiyi's words just now. After a while, I can figure out what medicine Liu Baiyi sells in his gourd.
They didn't dare to let Chang Si pay too much attention to it at this time. They still had the overall situation in mind.
The falcon flew due west. Under the gaze of everyone below who dared not make a sound, only a soft sound was heard, and a thin afterimage penetrated the sky like lightning. Before the falcon flapped its wings and jumped forward, it shot the eagle instantly. There was a scream at the connection between the wings and the abdomen, and the falcon struggled and fell crookedly from the air.
The soldiers cheered thunderously and ran towards the direction where the falcon fell.
The four cultivators all had expressions of relief on their faces and made eye contact with each other.
Someone secretly gave a thumbs up and whispered "Awesome"
There are no false warriors under the great reputation. This arrow shows Chang Siguo's extraordinary use of strength in archery.
Fast and accurate
If it were a distance of ten feet, which was the short-range shooting distance that Chang Siguo was rumored to be good at, they thought it would be difficult to escape the attack of this arrow. At the same time as the string sounded, the arrow had already arrived, making it impossible to prevent them.
Chang Siguo took the falcon from the soldier and handed it over, which was still struggling to peck at it. He twisted it casually, and the falcon's head hung softly, holding the prey upside down. Under the admiration and reverence of everyone, he stepped lightly and returned to Liu Zhirou. Beside him, he said, "It's the patrolling falcon released by the Beirong people."
He abandoned the falcon in his hand on the snow. There was a copper-colored muff on the eagle's left foot.
There is no way a wild eagle can have such a thing in the wild.
He was also quite satisfied with the arrow he just shot. Since his arms were tempered with flame quenching body fluid and exercises, not only the bones and skin have changed, but also his control over strength has improved to a new level. Floors.
Liu Zhirou kicked the dead falcon over and turned it over. Seeing that there was no mailbox, she lost interest and said to the four cultivators who approached and handed over their hands, "Our mission here is to capture Bailangpo."
He unfolded the note in his hand and faced the four people.
Even though the four of them had guessed that this would be the case, they were still surprised and stared at the note several times.
The last ray of clouds on the horizon dimmed, and the dusk in the snowfield deepened, but the contents of the warrant were still clearly visible in their eyes.
One of them glanced at Chang Siguo, who was guarding the side with a dull look, and couldn't help but said, "Mr. Liu, there are always two thousand Beirong cavalry stationed in Bailangpo. In addition, every winter, there are more than ten tribes of various sizes nearby for hundreds of miles. Gathering at Bailangpo, there are nearly 10,000 capable soldiers in Bailangpo, as well as more than 20,000 old, weak, women and children. Our small number of people is like throwing an egg at a rock."
Liu Zhirou put the signed and sealed order back into his sleeve and said, "Don't worry, everyone. As expected, Bailangpo's current strength is empty. There are only some old, weak, women and children left, and there are not many soldiers who can fight."
He fiddled with the ancient coins with his left hand and pinched them a few times, with an unfathomable look on his face. "The informant who delivered the message is coming soon. Please go three miles to the north to greet him. Reply to the sunset and don't let the soldiers accidentally injure the informant."
The four of them looked at each other, one of them clasped his fists and said, "Qi, take the order," and flew away to the north.
Liu Zhirou was not interested in explaining in detail, so she said to the three captains and the remaining cultivators who were gathered around, "There is still more than half an hour. Let brothers take a break and recuperate their mental and physical strength. Bailangpo is 30 miles ahead on the left. Let's set off at three o'clock."
"yes"
Several people left with their hands in doubt. With General Fang's personal order, they did not dare to disobey.
Liu Zhirou pointed to the northeast direction of Paoma Ridge and said to Chang Sijiao, "The real hard battle is with them."
Chang Si Guo thoughtfully, he could realize that the guy in front of him had a big plan.
Paoma Ridge is a large long strip of mound about ten feet high on the grassland. The slope is gentle, which means that a horse can run to the top in one go. There is a gravel land covering an area of about thirty acres on the top of the slope. How does grass grow, so the grasslands in Shaoshan are called ridges.
Shan Liwen, Zhuang Xie, and Governor Gai of the South Gate of Sihuang City, the three of them stood on Paoma Ridge facing the wind, looking at the two falcons circling majestically in the sky, their expressions were not very good.
According to usual practice, the long-distance raid would start at night in order to avoid the falcon detectives of the Beirong people.
This was a good time. Not long after we arrived at Paoma Ridge to rest, it was almost dark when we were spotted by a falcon.
There are still two flat hairs. Even if Yi Shangyan who is accompanying the team can shoot down one, the other will be frightened and run away. Their whereabouts are still exposed. How can they sneak for nearly two hundred miles and go deep into Jiling Valley to launch a sneak attack?
It’s not bad if the Beirong people don’t make dumplings.
"My three gentlemen, the Army Staff said they have an urgent military report."
A call came from below.
The fat on Zhuang Xie's face flickered. He now felt disgusted when he heard the word "join the army". It was all because of the girlish-looking Liu Canjun who was so talkative and could only talk about war on paper. He made bullshit battle plans and trapped them into Such a dilemma.
Shan Liwen and Governor Gai looked gloomy, and without saying a word, they jumped downhill and landed in front of a young man with long cheeks wearing a blue-grey cotton robe. Zhuang Xie also fell down shortly after, and shouted with a bad face, "Tell me what's going on."
This is considered polite. Usually in the bandit army camp, when I am impatient, I always yell "let it go".
The Army Staff took out a wax-sealed secret letter from his sleeve, handed it out with both hands, and said, "This is what General Fang handed over to his subordinates before departure. He handed it over to Paoma Ridge and handed it over to the three adults at nightfall. "
"oh"
Hearing that it was General Fang's secret message, the three of them looked at each other.
Shan Liwen stepped forward to take the secret letter and carefully checked that the seal was not broken. Then he tore open the letter and took out two folded pieces of paper.
Zhuang Xie and Governor Gai watched closely together. They hurriedly scanned the first piece of paper signed by the general's name. The three of them made an air-conditioned hiss in unison, and then turned to the second piece of paper.
After a while, the three of them jumped up at the same time and shouted, "Gather, form the team!"
Liu Baiyi, who was so stubborn, could easily retreat after changing his strings. He changed his planned combat intention in a ridiculous way and allowed them to camp on the spot at Paomaling to resist the coming siege of the Beirong people.
It is said that because the traitor leaked the secret, the plan to attack Jilinggou became to contain most of the Beirong troops and create opportunities for other troops and horses to attack.
Although the letter was signed with General Fang's name, Liu Baiyi's madness was revealed between the lines.
What a leak. They wrote a secret letter before they set off. Did they do it on purpose?
I just don’t know how the generals, with their stability and maturity, could agree to that pretty boy’s nonsense.
The whole Paoma Ridge area suddenly became lively, with people shouting horses neighing.
Teams of soldiers pushed snow boats loaded with supplies and climbed up the gentle slope to the top. The soldiers took out shovels from the snow boats, shoveled the snow on the top to heighten the snow wall, beat the gentle slope, and made a trapezoid in the middle to remove the thick snow. Beat it tightly and make it steep and smooth, making it steep at the top and gentle at the bottom.
Scattered out the cavalry ten or twenty miles away, and sent out sentries at all levels to warn.
Zhuang Xie saw more than twenty large iron pots set up and wood piled on the top of the slope to burn and melt the snow. He could no longer bear it. He walked up to Shan Liwen and Governor Gai who were patrolling, and asked in a low voice, "These are the ones you had earlier." It’s all arranged”
If you only hide it from him, you can tell.
Shan Liwen smiled bitterly and shook his head, explaining in a low voice, "There are more than thirty snow boats, arranged by Mr. Liu himself. There are only two people in each boat. The boats are filled with many sundries, including iron pots, chopped dry firewood, etc. Liu Sir, everything is prepared."
By this time, according to Mr. Liu's various arrangements in the second letter, which gradually turned into defensive measures on Paoma Ridge, he had confidence that he could withstand the Beirong cavalry alone in the small Paoma Ridge. A large force laid siege all night.
Zhuang Xie muttered, "He can't tell us openly and honestly without resorting to such tricks."
Governor Gai laughed softly and said, "It won't work if it's not kept secret. Mr. Liu is using us as bait, and he doesn't trust us people and is worried that the news will be exposed."
Fatty Zhuang spat hard.
