"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, cutting through the snowy field. along with
"Aww" a wailing sound, a gray wolf fell in a pool of blood.
"Boss Song, score one more point!"
"Boss, boss you are the best!"
With the help of the "cheerleaders", Song Che calmly blew the gun smoke. A man does not have to be able to shoot steadily, but also to shoot accurately.
There are actually too many wolves in the snowfield, and food is scarce in winter, so they hang around the team intentionally or unintentionally.
Simply, Song Che called Jiang Yuntian and Lin Tong to have a fight
In the "Wolf Hunting Competition", they both used hard skills and Song Che used the musket. In the endless white world, with this game, the depressing atmosphere has been alleviated.
"Whoosh!" Jiang Yuntian shot an arrow and accurately hit the wolf's body.
"General Jiang, score a point too!"
"General, general, brave and invincible, unparalleled in the world!" Zhao Qin in the carriage waved his left hand, and the palace ladies shouted in unison.
With a move of his right hand, the attendants shouted. In terms of momentum alone, no one loses.
"Whoosh!" Lin Tong shot an arrow and killed the gray wolf impartially.
"General Lin, score a point too!"
"Okay!" Except for a few soldiers who like to make noises, they are willing to shout
"Okay", not a single woman cheered for him.
"Oh, no more competition, I surrender." Lin Tong put away his bow, shook his head and sighed, even if he won the game, he would lose his life.
Since the three of them left the fortress, they have shot more than thirty gray wolves in an hour. However, the number of wolves has only increased. Their gray and white fur is very consistent with the snowy field. If you don't look carefully, you may not be able to see it. Found it.
There are too many hungry wolves in the open snowfield, which is not a good sign.
"General, Chang Banqiao is ahead!" The scout who explored the road came back to report. In the distance, you can see a wide glacier crossing the north-south route. The surface of the river has frozen into ice. There is a wooden plank bridge on the river. No one has stepped on it for a long time, and the bridge deck is completely covered with snow.
The real dividing point between Daliang and Dijon is this
"Ji River", after crossing this river, you will truly reach the border of Dijon. According to the agreement between the envoys of both sides, after crossing the Ji River and walking further north forty miles, there is a place named
"Yunneibao" military station, the Dijon envoy will receive the bride there, and then together with Daliang Fang, escort the wedding team to the capital of Dijon to hold the wedding with the prince.
"Everyone, listen, people and horses are walking in two rows. Cars, drivers and baggage are walking in the center of the bridge. Pay attention to the thin ice on the bridge!" After all, the long bridge is made of wood. If thousands of people step on it at the same time, it will be difficult to bear the weight, and the wedding procession will be stretched. Passed several times, passing slowly and orderly.
After crossing the glacier and walking about twenty miles further, it was already getting late.
"Aww..." The wolves howled everywhere, and more and more wolves began to emerge on the snowfield. They were in groups, looking at the Heqin team from a distance.
Wolves are very territorial animals. They stay in groups either to drive away predators or to organize hunting.
Song Che used his binoculars to find a small village on the snowy field. After asking the scouts to inspect it, they found that the village had been abandoned for a long time.
Having a wall as a barrier is naturally much safer than camping on a snowfield. So, the marriage team settled in the small village.
There are about sixty or seventy households in the village. It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time. Most of the houses have been crushed by the heavy snow, but at least the structure is still there and it can block a lot of cold wind.
Better houses were cleared out for the princess and officials to live in, while the soldiers and followers camped on the village road. Song Che also asked everyone to go to the snowfield to collect firewood. Old beams and thatch that were dry and flammable were also used. , and then while it was still dark, bonfires were lit at various intersections in the village, in order to resist the night attacks of wolves.
Gradually, night falls. The cold current outside the customs is much crueler. If you urinate or blow your nose, it will freeze into ice in a moment. The scattered snow flakes will stick to the skin, which is more painful than being burned by sparks.
"Aww..." The wolves howled one after another, making people panic. The pairs of green wolf eyes were like flying fireflies, far and near, bright and dark.
It's a pity that this is not a midsummer night, but the twelfth lunar month of winter.
"It seems that we have enough work tonight." Song Che sat behind the bonfire at the entrance of the village, warming himself by the fire and wiping the musket in his hand with a rag.
All the Imperial Guards were not allowed to sleep tonight. Every one hundred people were divided into twenty teams. Each ten teams patrolled for half an hour. Those who were not patrolling sat in front of the bonfire to keep warm.
The weather is too cold, so you are allowed to drink some wine to warm yourself up, but you are never allowed to get drunk. Jiang Yuntian picked up the wine bottle, took two big sips, and clicked his tongue: "Brother Song's wine is for...what's it for? That word!" Song Che smiled and said, "It's called awesome." Jiang Yuntian patted it. thigh,
"Yes, yes, that's awesome... After one gulp of wine, the heat went straight to my forehead." Of course, this is 60-proof distilled liquor. Song Che used it to make a Molotov cocktail, but he robbed him of it and drank it. .
"Pa!" Song Che raised his hand and fired a shot, killing a gray wolf that got too close, and then continued to clean the gun,
"Be careful, they are getting closer."
"Are they really so ungrateful?" The sword in Jiang Yuntian's hand was also polished to a bright shine. Song Che said slowly: "People are ignorant of what is good and bad, let alone a wolf?"
"However, the average wolf pack does not exceed thirty, even in winter, it does not exceed fifty, but in the snowfield in front of us, there are at least thousands of them," Jiang Yuntian looked at Song Che and said, "They are It's a big deal to take a bite, so I still think it's better for you to go back to the village. It's up to us to do the killing." Song Che pointed to the group of female swordsmen sitting around the fire and said with a smile: " So what if the wolf comes? They are all just...tigresses."
"Hmm!" All the female swordsmen looked at each other with a glare.
"Just kidding, to ease the tense atmosphere. Heroines, please don't take it seriously-"
"Aww!" A wolf howled, like the charging horn on the battlefield, kicking off tonight's human-wolf war.
"They're coming!"
"No team is allowed to leave their guard post without permission!"
"The whole army forms a formation! Prepare to fight!"
"Crossbowman!"
"put!"
"Swish, swish..." Any war begins with a shower of arrows. The wolves attacked the village from all directions like a torrent. A wave of arrows fell and dozens of them were harvested. Immediately afterwards, the soldiers drew their swords, raised their swords and guns, and began to fight hand-to-hand with the wolves!
Nangong Yue and her female sword attendants cooperated from front to back, left and right, and were almost invincible. Jiang Yuntian swept across all directions with a long sword, leaving no intact corpse of any wolf touched by the sword's energy.
Song Che stepped back a little distance, jumped up on a fence, and squatted on the wall to shoot with accuracy.
