Chapter 1163 The enhanced version of the Thirty Repeating Crossbow appears
The number of Fu troops that evacuated from Pu Shi Town was only 5,000. They had just lost two generals and one soldier. After hundreds of elite cavalry and thousands of Fu troops, there were still nearly 4,000 people.
On Qin Huaidao's side, there were over a thousand garrison troops, each of them carrying reinforced thirty-repeated crossbows and grenades, which were considered top-notch equipment.
Both sides marched separately, and when they reached a ridge with a gentle slope, they met each other facing the big flag.
It started to rain lightly in the sky, and the torrent in the canyon below continued. The passionate waves hit the rocks and continued to flow into the distance.
Looking at the countless guards in front of him, Pu Shizhen's lips trembled slightly.
"Didn't you say there are only eight people on the other side? Look, am I seeing double images?"
As the commander-in-chief of the government army, Ma Yi also had a look of horror in his eyes.
"Master Pu, we are finished."
Pu Shizhen turned to look at him: "What did you say?"
Then, Luo Wu's loud voice came from the mountain: "The evidence of corruption in Yin Pu Shi Town, Puzhou Prefecture, and embezzlement of grain for disaster relief is true. He led his troops to rebel and assassinate His Majesty. He deserves the death penalty and will be executed immediately!"
Upon hearing the word "Your Majesty," everyone in Puzhou Town fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is here in person. I should have thought of why there are guards in such a place. There is no other reason other than His Majesty's inspection here. I really deserve to die for being so careless."
Ma Yi also looked at the person in the distance who was protected by everyone.
If not the person who killed Chen Sheng and Li Hezhi, who could he be?
So he is the current Emperor of the Han Dynasty?
He was able to kill two generals by himself. With such strength, there were few enemies in the world. He suddenly remembered that His Majesty also came from the military and rose to the rank of King of Han thanks to his outstanding military exploits.
"No wonder, I, Ma Yi, am convinced that I lost."
Then, there was a magnificent scene before seeing each other again, with a rain of arrows shot from thousands of guards covering the sky and the earth, and even the sky and the earth changed color.
Tens of thousands of arrows, how powerful this is!
Ma Yi took Pu Shizhen to hide behind the carriage, and snatched the shield and knife from a government soldier. When the arrow rain fell, he used the carriage and shield to block all the arrows aimed at himself and Pu Shizhen.
Down.
The rest of the people were not so lucky. Under the dense arrows, almost everyone was killed and injured, and they were unable to fight anymore.
When Ma Yi saw this, he roared: "Master Pu, if you leave the green hills as long as you don't have to worry about running out of firewood, I'll take you away!"
After that, he whistled, and the surviving horses heard the whistle and ran towards him. Seeing that there were still horses, he looked happy. After helping Pu Shizhen onto the horse, he jumped up and rode on the horse.
He carried Pu Shizhen on his back.
"Sir, be careful, this horse is a little bumpy."
Pu Shizhen had no time to think about this. At this time, his heart was bleeding as he looked at the corpses on the ground and the carts of property.
This was all his accumulation over the years, but it was all gone after a hail of arrows.
Ma Yi said that if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood. Without these, where would there be green hills?
On the distant ridge.
Luo Wu pointed at Ma Yi and Pu Shizhen who were mounting their horses: "Your Majesty, those two are going to run away."
"What's so difficult about this?"
Qin Huaidao immediately took aim with his bow. After shooting an arrow, the arrow shot out of the air and rushed straight towards Pu Shizhen. At such a long distance, he successfully hit the target with one arrow.
"Poof." Pu Shizhen spurted blood from his mouth, dyeing Ma Yi's clothes red.
Ma Yi, who realized something was wrong, asked to the rear while riding his horse: "Master Pu, what happened?"
Pu Shizhen's breath had become extremely weak after he was hit by an arrow: "Ma Yi, I was hit by an arrow. I'm afraid I won't be able to escape. After I die, you, you have to live well."
"The Sixth Route Army has revolted. I cannot witness you becoming the pillar of the country, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. However, I believe that if it were you, you would definitely be able to achieve that level."
"Until then, please repay me..."
Before he could finish the word revenge, Pu Shizhen fell headlong into the pile of dead people. Ma Yi turned around to look at the Puzhou Prefect who had shown great kindness to Da Youtian, with an unbearable look in his eyes. He glanced back for a few seconds.
I mourned for him silently, then mounted my horse again and left without looking back.
On the ridge, Luo Wu reminded: "Your Majesty, there is another person, and that person is out of range."
The opponent's escape speed was somewhat unexpectedly fast.
But just in time, Qin Huaidao can try the newly made strengthened crossbow arrows.
After installing the auxiliary ballistics on the Thirty Repeater Crossbow, Qin Huaidao took out an arrow with gunpowder and placed it on the auxiliary ballistics.
The many surrounding guards remained calm on the surface, but their eyes were attracted by this enhanced version of the Thirty Repeater Crossbow. Not everyone has this enhanced crossbow, only two hundred of them have it, so this is the first time they see it.
They all found it strange.
Especially after someone exceeded the range of ordinary crossbows, they were all curious about how to kill the escaped person.
"Is this an enhanced version of the crossbow? I think it's no different from the previous one except for the added accessories." A guard sergeant muttered.
"Shh, keep your voice down, His Majesty is right here. Do you want to get slapped with a military stick if you speak so boldly?"
The sergeant lowered his voice a lot after hearing his colleague's reminder.
"I'm just saying this, and I don't mean to belittle His Majesty."
Qin Huaidao didn't care about the comments of these soldiers. Anyway, the opponent's army has been wiped out, so it's good for everyone to relax. Thinking of this, he suddenly laughed and said: "Why don't you guess, can my arrow hit this person?"
No longer needing to hide his identity from the enemy, Qin Huaidao called himself me again.
When it came to speculation, all these soldiers became excited.
"It's still a guess. Your Majesty is so confident that he can definitely hit the target." Some soldiers were very sure.
"That's not necessarily the case. This person is running further and further away, and is already beyond the shooting range. I think even with a specially made arrow, it will be difficult to hit him successfully."
Qin Huaidao looked at the discussion of these soldiers, then looked at Luo Wu: "Commander Luo, can you tell me?"
Luo Wudao: "I heard that your Majesty added gunpowder to the arrows, so the range of the arrows has been increased a lot. If gunpowder is used, the stability and controllability will be much lower."
After finishing speaking, he changed the topic: "But if it is His Majesty, then he will definitely hit the target with one hit."
The words before and after show emotional intelligence.
"You are quite smart." Qin Huaidao did not wait for the rest of the people to guess. After lighting the fuse on the arrow, he did not aim directly at the horse's wing. Instead, he raised the arrow a little distance, and then pulled the trigger.
The arrow flew out with a whooshing sound, and when it was halfway through the flight, when it was exhausted, the fuse was burned out, and the small tube of gunpowder sprayed out, allowing the arrow to regain its power midway, which made the security forces marvel.
"How can it still be like this? After the arrow that was about to fall was sprayed with gunpowder, it was like shooting for the second round. In this case, wouldn't the arrow be able to shoot more than twice the distance?"
