The reason why the female Bodhisattva was so anxious to provoke Qi Yu out was for two main purposes.
The first one is that the other party arrived so quickly, he must have arrived on a light horse. Since it is a light cavalry, there must be war horses accompanying it. And our own war horses have happened to be completely destroyed. If we get these from them, wouldn't we be indirectly replenished?
In short, just grab it and use it.
The second point is that the other party is now in the dark, which is very detrimental to one's own side. It would be much more comfortable if they could be forced to come out.
The underlying meaning is that blatant confrontation is the only way to demonstrate one's own advantage in numbers.
Then, will Qi Yu show up?
It should!
If he continues to hide, then we can push Liu Quan out and use it as a threat.
And Mr. Qi is one of the few smart people in the world. How could he take the initiative to hit the gun?
Therefore, she basically expected that this guy would stand up and answer obediently.
Yeah?
Not really!
In fact, she was only half right.
Qi Yu really didn't dare to pretend to be deaf and indifferent, but he didn't stand up obediently and surrender as the other party imagined.
How can a majestic seven-foot-tall man be so humble?
Even if you can't be a dragon among men, you still have to be a decent worm.
"In this way, divide half of the men and horses and follow me to the front. When we enter the shooting range, we will immediately launch a volley. Whether it is muskets or crossbows, give them all to me. Kill as many as you can. No matter how much you kill, don’t show any mercy!”
"The remaining half of the troops will take advantage of the chaos and move closer to the tunnel. If the rescue can be carried out, they will launch it immediately; if not, they will strictly guard the pass to prevent the enemies from gathering. Well, do you understand?"
"I understand what Master Hui Qi said!"
"Well, take action immediately!"
Following this order, the Qiongzhou Prefecture Army began to move in two.
The soldiers in the light lit torches one after another and moved forward openly; while the other half of the people in the dark shrank and moved quietly towards the tunnel.
Both are done simultaneously, almost in no particular order.
Judging from the effects presented, Ming Chujun successfully attracted the opponent's attention and at the same time created favorable conditions for the Dark One's movers.
From a broad perspective, it feels like building plank roads openly and building warehouses secretly.
And it's very natural and calm.
Naturally, the female Bodhisattva would not have thought that the Qiongzhou Army, which was already at a numerical disadvantage, would dare to split into two groups. This kind of untimely and bizarre behavior is tantamount to destroying martial arts.
However, Qi Yu really did this.
What she didn't expect was that the other party actually dared to strike first and directly launched a force attack.
Unbelievable?
yes!
But it also came true.
However, they saw that the Qiongzhou Army, which was approaching with a friendly attitude, suddenly attacked without warning. Without saying a word, they came up and fired fiercely.
At the same time, serial crossbows followed one after another, forming a sharp rain of arrows in an instant, which was difficult to guard against.
Can't guard against it?
Then you have to pay for it.
Moreover, the price is very heavy!
After a fierce offensive by the Qiongzhou Army, more than 200 people on the other side were directly annihilated.
This result can definitely be regarded as a rare small victory in an encounter, and those Fuso soldiers who had no time to escape naturally became the victims of this small victory.
Looking at the corpses of her subordinates lying on the ground, the female Bodhisattva was so angry that she couldn't help herself.
At the same time, she couldn't help but cursed: "Qi Yu, as a wise man, how can you go to war without talking about it? How can you act like a scholar by doing this?"
She originally thought that Mr. Qi would politely offer him courtesy first and then attack him, and talk to her about the exchange of interests. But I never thought that he was not immoral at all, and he was just a "bastard punch".
Qi Yu would naturally not be vague when facing the other party's insults.
He retorted: "Although China is a hospitable place, we don't have to bow to everyone we meet. Let's put it this way, when friends come, there is wine, when wolves come, there are swords and guns, there is black and white in the world, and people are divided into good and evil, how can we Treat them without distinction?"
quibble!
And hooligans!
"Qi Yu, do you really want to fight me?"
"No! We Chinese people have always been particular about a gentleman speaking his words but not using his hands. Since you are willing to negotiate with me to solve the problem, then why don't I do as you please?"
Well……
Are you... don't want to fight again?
Qi Yu coughed dryly and shouted from the air: "Just now, you should have sent me a friendly signal in advance, so that I would not misunderstand your meaning. But you, directly put up a defensive formation, how could I do nothing? ?”
The female Bodhisattva was stunned and said, "So, it's all my responsibility?"
Qi Yu nodded and said: "Who wouldn't be afraid of you setting up such a big battle? To put it bluntly, as long as you give the order, I may face the danger of being surrounded and annihilated. We are all people with military backgrounds, so what's the point? Do you need a detailed explanation?”
Oh well!
The responsibility is all mine!
The female Bodhisattva snorted softly, and then said: "Qi Yu, if we don't say anything else, I just want to ask you, are you willing to negotiate with me?"
"Of course!" Qi Dalang held up his hands and said helplessly: "My beloved wife's life is all in your hands. Do I have any other choice?"
"You know the current situation!"
"People under the eaves have to bow their heads!"
Having said that, Qi Yu immediately ordered his subordinates to put away their swords and guns and stand by where they were. No one is allowed to move a step without his permission.
In addition, he also took off his gun, walked to the front of the battle alone, and pretended to want to negotiate sincerely.
This method is undoubtedly very dangerous.
As long as the opponent fires a round of arrows without martial ethics, Qi Dalang will be pierced by thousands of arrows and die on the spot. Moreover, even a hundred and twenty units will not come over.
However, he had no choice.
When it was about his woman's life, he had to stand up bravely, without even room for negotiation.
Without this bit of courage, would he still be considered a normal man?
Of course, he also has his own trade-offs.
The other party's purpose is to obtain the technology of steam engines and related grain cultivation, and to escape as much as possible. If the swordsmen met, it would seriously violate their original intention.
Therefore, he roughly expected that the other party would not take the initiative to use force.
As for the so-called negotiation, it was just a reason for Qi Yu to delay.
In two or three hours, the Qiong Army's infantry brigade will arrive here, and by then, the Fusang people will be there.
In addition, this move can also attract the opponent's attention, thereby creating a favorable space for the team in the dark.
Even if you are somewhat sure, it still requires a lot of courage.
If we are not careful, the whole drama will be over.
