When the soldiers of Cao Jun heard Liu Xuande's answer, they were furious and waved their hands vigorously, "Brothers, let's shoot arrows. If we don't show them our power, they don't know how powerful we are."
Following the order, the six archers immediately drew their bows and set arrows.
As the bowstring sounded, six rockets shot from three sides.
When everyone in the tree saw this scene, they were startled and hurriedly waved their weapons to block it.
But this time, the target of Cao's soldiers' shooting was not the people on the tree, but the tree.
Six arrows accurately hit several thick branches on the periphery, making a thumping sound.
The rocket is burning,
Shoot the branch,
Immediately ignite the bark above,
Then there was a crackling sound and bursts of green smoke, which soon rose from the flames.
"Not good!"
Everyone in the tree shouted, "No, hurry up and put out the fire."
Everyone ignored the danger and hurriedly picked up their weapons to chop down the arrows on the trees.
Whoosh!
Taking advantage of this time, the archers on the raft drew their bows and arrows again. This time they did not use rockets, but ordinary arrows, targeting a few people in the tree.
Liu Xuande waved the knife in his hand to hit the rockets on the tree branches. He had just shot down one when he suddenly heard a soft sound and hurriedly looked up. At this moment, he also heard the sound of a bow string playing.
I was suddenly startled, and I quickly retracted my knife and held it in front of my face.
Bang bang!
Liu Xuande has great martial arts skills and discovered it early. The single sword in his hand directly knocked away the two flying arrows.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had knives in their hands, and they were both highly skilled in martial arts. They narrowly avoided arrows.
But Wenpin and Jingzhou eldest son Liu Qi on the other side were not so lucky.
Wen hired a hook with a rope to ward off the enemy's arrows. At this moment, he was using the hook to hit the rockets on the branches. However, he never thought that the enemy would take the opportunity to launch an arrow and sneak attack. By the time they discovered it, it was already too late. The two could only
Try your best to dodge.
Wenpin couldn't dodge, and another arrow hit his injured shoulder. The pain made him scream, and he leaned weakly against the tree.
On the other side, the eldest son of Jingzhou, Liu Qi, suddenly turned to one side and bumped into Liu Xuande's body, and was immediately bounced back.
Phew!
Poof!
"Ah!"
The eldest son of Jingzhou, Liu Qi, screamed.
I was hit by an arrow again. Thanks to the fact that it didn't hit the vital point and only hit the arm, I escaped.
Zhang Fei yelled angrily, "You gang of thieves dare to sneak up on us with arrows. When Grandpa Zhang comes down from the tree, he will crush your heads to burst to relieve the hatred in his heart."
When Cao Jun's soldiers heard Zhang Fei's shouting, they all looked up to the sky and laughed, "You black man, if you have the ability, come down now. Grandpa will give you a hand, let's see if you dare to come."
"Black man, come down quickly. Grandpa is so scared. If you jump into the water, grandpa will turn around and run away in fear. Don't come down."
Zhang Fei was so angry with these Cao soldiers that he almost jumped out of the tree and fought with them. Thanks to Guan Yu, he stopped him from diving.
Liu Xuande did not listen to what the two of them said, but suddenly took a step forward and knocked away the other burning arrow. Then he felt relieved, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned to look at Cao Jun's soldiers in the distance, and shouted loudly
Said.
"If you want Liu Qi, the eldest son of Jingzhou, come here quickly. He will be waiting for you on the tree."
Cao Jun's soldiers sneered, "You thief, how dare you lie to us? Do you want to wait for us to pass by, and you want to steal our raft?"
Another Cao Jun soldier laughed loudly, "You are a thief, I didn't expect you to be so cunning, but do you think grandpa will be fooled by you? Just dream."
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were standing in the tree, were furious when they heard that Cao Jun soldiers were disrespectful to Liu Xuande.
"You thieves, my elder brother said, if you want Liu Qi, the eldest son of Jingzhou, then come here quickly, otherwise get away and stop talking."
Cao Jun's soldiers laughed loudly, "You red-faced dog thief, it turns out that you also want to lie to us. Tell you, unless they come, we will never pass."
Liu Xuande said loudly, "If you don't come over, I'm afraid they won't be able to get over either."
At this point, Liu Xuande pulled the eldest son of Jingzhou, Liu Qi, who still had two arrows on his body, and said loudly, "Look, he has already been hit by two arrows. How can he get over? Come and pick him up." p>
Cao Jun's soldiers snorted coldly, "Dog thieves, don't worry, as long as they jump down from the tree, we will immediately throw out ropes to pull them over, and they will be fine."
At this point, Cao Jun's soldier pointed at Liu Xuande and said, "We can let Liu Qi, the eldest son of Jingzhou, go, but you, a thief, have repeatedly tried to deceive us. It's really hateful. I will never let you go this time, even if you jump.
Come out, and we won’t let you go.”
"As for the black-faced man and the red-faced man, you two don't talk much. If you are willing to jump down, grandpa promises not to chase you. If you are lucky, you may be able to escape with your life."
As soon as Cao Jun's soldiers finished speaking, Zhang Fei roared angrily, "You are dreaming if you want to separate me from my eldest brother. When we became sworn brothers, we swore not to be born in the same year and in the same month, but we wanted to be born in the same year and month."
Die.
If you have the ability, then just come, we three brothers will never be afraid of you."
When Cao Jun's soldiers heard these words, they nodded, "I didn't expect that a black-faced man like you is quite loyal, but it's a pity that the thief is not loyal."
When Liu Xuande heard the words of the Cao Army soldiers, he was so angry that he almost ran away. But at this moment, he was standing on a lone tree in the flood. No matter how powerful he was, there was nothing he could do and he could only swallow his anger.
"How about this? You let us three brothers leave, and I will give you some benefits, which will definitely be more than what Cao Mengde gave you. What do you think?"
"Benefits?"
When several Cao Jun soldiers heard this, their eyes lit up, "What benefits can you give us?"
When Liu Xuande saw this scene, he was overjoyed and hurriedly raised his hand, "As long as you let us go, we will give you all our belongings. There must be a lot of them."
After saying this, Liu Xuande took out a money bag and waved it in front of him.
"What do you think? If you can agree, the money will be yours."
Cao Jun's soldiers looked at the money bag in Liu Xuande's hand, their eyes lit up, but they said, "This is just this, it's too little, I won't agree to it."
After hearing this, Liu Xuande winked at the people next to him. Seeing this, everyone took out the belongings they were carrying and shook them in front of them.
"If you let us leave, what we have in our hands will all be yours."
Cao Jun's soldiers pointed at Liu Xuande and said, "You are a thief,"
