Zhang Kun walked up the hillside and pulled off the scholar's white robe, revealing a short gray and black outfit underneath.
The figure seems to be blending into the wind, stepping lightly and walking quickly around the tree...
Not long after, we reached a flat area on the hillside.
The trees here are much sparser, and there are fewer shrubs and weeds.
Zhang Kun slowed down and touched it quietly.
Fortunately, the bandits may be too confident, or they may not have expected that someone would mix with the caravan and civilians and break into the rear without arranging many manpower to patrol.
'I did overthink it. It's not a strong army, it's just some ferocious and fierce desperadoes. Naturally, there won't be too high requirements in terms of discipline. Even if someone is arranged to guard it, it may not be strictly enforced. '
He lay quietly behind the tree, his breathing slowing down. The color of his clothes blended well with the bark of the tree, making him inconspicuous at all.
Not far away, a man carrying a knife put down the knife, walked to the side to put out the water, shuddered, smiled and said to the man leaning on the grass next to him: "Tell me, will the Yuanshun Escort Agency take care of it?" Hand over the boy named Zhang? That boy is really a tiger. He dares to kill our third boss in the city. I don’t know what he thinks? "
"Do they dare not to surrender?"
The other half-squinted eyes, patted the long knife beside him, and said with a sneer, "Don't look at those escort agencies in the city. They all have loud names. When they see our boss, they still don't have a relationship like a grandson. They eat It’s just a bowl of rice. If you don’t build a good relationship and just find things for them on the road, you will lose your reputation and it will be difficult to do business in the future.”
"Yes, they are businessmen, haha..."
The two laughed for a while, and the man came back after letting go, "If it were before, I would have been worried that the big sword king Wu would break into the village and take revenge, which would be difficult to deal with. But it is different now. With those treasures, even if Even if the government sends troops, they can resist for a while and retreat to the mountains."
"Yes, I don't know how foreigners' heads grow. Foreign guns are easier to use than the court's shotguns. There is no need to change bullets or ignite the fire. Just pull it and it can be fired one after another. One person can suppress an elite army. The men and horses... Yuanshun Escort Agency must have to give in this time. I heard that the two leaders are going to light the boy named Zhang on the sky lantern. I want to see what this newborn calf looks like. "
The man put his hands behind his head, crossed his legs, and lay reclining. He was biting grass roots and squinting his eyes while chatting and spanking. He was very comfortable when a voice rang in his ears.
"You can see it now."
He opened his eyes suddenly and saw that the partner who had just drained the water had his head turned around, his eyes widened, looking at him blankly, but his body did not turn around.
The neck has been twisted into a twist.
Beside him, there was a young man in gray clothes, his palm retracted from the top of his head.
The lying man suddenly raised his upper body and opened his mouth to shout.
The cold light was like lightning, and a long knife had penetrated from the mouth, passed through the back of the neck, and nailed him to the tree trunk.
"This knife has good steel fire."
Zhang Kun broke one man's neck, uttered a grudge, swung his knife straight in, and stabbed another bandit swordsman to death...
I held the knife in my hand, weighed it and danced lightly, feeling very satisfied in my heart.
After observing for a while, he discovered that, except for the two swordsmen who were supposed to be roaming around the hillside, there were about ten others, lying in wait in two piles, just staring blankly. At the foot of the mountain.
Some were holding crossbows, and some were carrying guns.
Naturally, the gun was not a "repeated fire" firearm as the gunman said, but an old-fashioned long dark yellow wooden bar with a black barrel and bolt.
The most important thing is that he actually found someone cleaning the gun, pulling the bolt, loading the gun...
'Pull and shoot?' '
Having watched a lot of old movies, Zhang Kun naturally understood what the rifle was about at this time.
If you let them focus their fire and aim, then they can only hit people, and others can't hit them.
But what if you touch a crowd?
What will happen again.
'It's not much better than burning a fire stick. '
A cold smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Kun's mouth, and the attribute column in his mind flashed slightly. The column of Liuhe Sword Technique changed from "proficient" to proficient, and only a little dragon energy value was left.
The long knife in his hand seemed to become lighter, and the connection with his arm became deeper.
It was as if he had cut thousands of swords... The memories of five or six years of practice with swords were poured into his mind.
'It's very easy to use, can move hard, has no unfamiliarity at all, and can draw swords from all directions. Straight thrusts, horizontal cuts, diagonal thrusts...it's all done to your liking. '
'Proficient in swordsmanship, he should be considered a powerful swordsman in the world. With a knife in hand, the attack power is more than doubled. '
Zhang Kun moved his fingers slightly, and in the flickering light of the knife, three fallen leaves were cut in half silently.
'Having weapons is still different from not having weapons. With this speed of moving the knife and the strength of his whole body, even if he encounters a master of Luo Wei's level of secret power again, it is not impossible to give him a try. '
Of course, the premise is that the opponent is empty-handed.
This is actually quite good.
He didn't hesitate any longer and walked away with the knife.
With one move, he pulled out weeds and looked for snakes, piercing through the trees like arrows, his sword flashed and he slashed six times.
Boo hoo hoo…
The slight whistling of a knife echoed in the forest, piercing the soul.
Flesh was cut, bones were broken, blood spurted out, and screams and howls were heard one after another.
The seven crossbowmen were either standing, sitting, or lying down and looking at the foot of the mountain. The moment the sword light came on, they would turn around and aim at Zhang Kun. A sharp edge has already passed through the throat and cut across the neck...
The last one fired the short crossbow in his hand randomly. His chest hurt. He had been stabbed through the heart by a knife and fell to the ground.
Bang bang...
Boom boom boom!
The sound of the gunshot was like exploding beans, shaking wild birds away and causing leaves to fall.
The seven gunmen obviously reacted, turned their guns, and pulled the triggers.
The response is actually not too slow.
However, the empty mountain in front of them was silent. Except for the corpses of the seven crossbowmen who were either decapitated or had their chests broken, twitching in place, no one could be seen anywhere.
"is behind……"
"Spread out, spread out quickly."
The sound of tearing and cutting as the blade penetrated the body was heard.
Halfway through the shouting, the voices suddenly stopped.
The light of the sword jumped vertically and horizontally, and a figure's eyes flashed with cold light as he pounced and slashed... He stayed close to his body, back to back, and shuttled between several gunmen, never staying in place for more than half a second.
"Scatter..."
The last gunman's face was filled with fear. He had just raised his gun and felt himself flying into the air before his fingers even exerted any force.
The sky and mountains were spinning and shaking, and the eyes fell into darkness.
"For martial arts masters, as long as they break into the gun formation and kill these ordinary bandits, it's like chopping melons and vegetables... I don't know, what are they afraid of?"
Zhang Kun sneered.
He will not be like those masters in this world who work hard and don't care about the world. He has no understanding of foreign guns and stands there to block them with great contempt.
He won't be as afraid of foreign guns as the escorts in the escort agency.
He has a very detailed understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of this rifle, and knows how to play to his own strengths and restrain his opponent's weaknesses.
It's so easy to fight.
There are only about ten people, with short crossbows and long spears... So, kill the crossbowman first to prevent the other party from turning around quickly.
And what about the spear?
When I really rushed into the crowd of people and became a mess, I didn't know where the gun was going.
If they don't die, who will?
Two points of dragon energy, like light and shadow, converged from two directions under the mountain.
The point comes from not far away. Who is it from the caravan?
Maybe his family was killed by bandits, or his property was exploited, and he felt resentful towards the bandits. At this time, a gunshot was heard, and then there was silence immediately. Although I may not really understand what happened on the mountain, I must have guessed it.
The source of another dragon energy value has actually been predicted for a long time.
That person came from Yuanshun Escort Agency not far from the city gate...
It might be Wu Zhongda, it might be Li Xiaowan, or it might be Wang Jingya.
Of course, it could be someone else...
Li Xiaowan is a smart girl. After she leaves, she will definitely lead the "warrior faction" of the Yuanshun Escort Agency to come and spy on her, waiting for the opportunity to take action.
I don't know if other escorts will take action, but people like Wang Jingya, her fellow apprentices, and Wu Zhongda will definitely come.
Without saying a word, it can lead to the result of a flanking attack.
This is the tacit understanding between Zhang Kun and Li Xiaowan...
It is also a matter of trust in Wang Jingya.
At the foot of the mountain, a large group of bandits were now in chaos...
Some people shouted loudly, while others rushed left and right to dispatch men.
Dozens of bandits wielding knives, holding spears, and axes headed toward the hillside, shouting to kill.
Zhao She mounted the black horse, raised his gun to the sky, and roared: "Who, who...kill him."
There was no movement from the crossbowmen and gunners on the hillside behind them. Zhao She felt cold and screamed that something was wrong.
He brought a large team of people, and despite his huge momentum, it was actually not about how strong he was. Is it because he has figured out exactly what the escorts from Yuanshun Escort Agency are thinking and what they are worried about?
The real reliance is of course not his peak strength of Ming Jin Bone Forging and his snake-shaped spear skills, nor the few masters in the joint force realm under his command, but those foreign guns and hard crossbows.
As long as you have this kind of "big killer" in hand, you can suppress those escorts so that they don't dare to come out to fight, and you can advance or retreat as you please, without worrying about bad results at all.
But……
Hearing this news, the ambush on the mountain was taken away. How can we continue to play like this?
He was so angry that he immediately clapped his horse and danced his spear, leading hundreds of bandits to rush down the hillside.
Along the way, he stabbed to death a few caravan civilians who were hiding a little slower, with a murderous look on their faces.
"Just in time."
Zhang Kun thought and improved.
Consuming two points of Dragon Qi, Liuhe Sword Technique goes from mastery to minor success...
Ten years of life and death, no matter the cold or heat, the knife skills penetrate into the bones, and the flesh and blood are connected.
Memories flooded into his heart, and the long blood-drinking knife in his hand seemed to have given birth to blood and meridians, becoming one with himself.
This knife is the arm;
This knife is life.
Feeling the rare harmony and fit between humans and swords, Zhang Kun was filled with pride.
Dragging the knife behind him, he shot through the forest and leaves like lightning, straight down the hillside...
He rushed towards the large group of bandits and rushed towards them.
I have a sword in my hand, no matter how many enemies are ahead, I am just trying to sell out.
