Jun Ci pried open the cork of a water bag with his thumb, raised his head and took a swig of water, staring at the enemy troops that were roaring towards the sky with dust and sand filling the sky.
The clear and sharp phoenix eyes are filled with burning fighting spirit!
After pouring out the water bag in her hand, she threw it away, and some remaining water drops from the water bag fell on Ah Chi's horse's buttocks. Ah Chi made a long hiss, raised his horse's hooves, and galloped forward to the right.
.
"Jun Ci!" Yuan You was caught off guard and grabbed the reins to avoid being thrown off, but Achi didn't listen to him at all. He had to turn around and anxiously looked at Jun Ci who was getting farther and farther away from her and still staying in the same place.
.
The distance between him and Jun Ci is getting farther and farther, but the enemy is getting closer and closer to Jun Ci!
The yellow sand kicked up by the large number of horses is like the rushing flood of the Yellow River, rolling in unstoppably!
Jun Ci took off the crossbow from the horse and mounted three arrows. She squinted her eyes and faced the galloping army.
The dazzling sunlight and the flying yellow sand were like a layer of fog blocking the sight of the army and her.
The people who were chasing her couldn't actually see her at all. One person had a small target, and the sand and dust swept by them blocked their sight.
I kept chasing them, but they were just horse hoof prints left on the sand. Being close to the center of the desert, the wind and sand were relatively strong, so it was very easy to encounter sandstorms.
They pursued so closely because they were worried that if the delay was a little longer, the traces left behind would be destroyed by the wind and sand, and they would lose the direction to the north toward His Majesty.
For them, Jun Ci can't be seen clearly in the rolling yellow sand, but for them, Jun Ci has a clear goal. Her slender arms are full of power and smooth lines.
Separated by layers of yellow sand, Jun Ci could not see clearly as they got closer.
She only had an intuition that allowed her to decisively release the arrow when the leader of the army stepped into the predicted position in her heart.
The arrow pierced the scorching sun, drew a long arc in mid-air, tore through the thin curtain of yellow sand, passed the vanguard at the front, and hit the generals in the army!
An arrow was split in half by a sword, another arrow was deflected, another arrow hit his chest, and a young general was hit by an arrow and fell down.
He suddenly fell down in the middle and front of the army. Because of his high status, the left, right and rear tightened their reins, and the galloping army at the rear either followed or stumbled directly.
The orderly formation of the army was disrupted by this arrow, and many people fell down and collided, dying under the hooves of their companions.
Jun Ci didn't even look back. She shot the arrow, turned her horse's head, and chased Yuan You.
There is little certainty that these three arrows can hit her. The marching team seems to have a heart, so the heart position is naturally the most important and needs protection.
She just shoots cold arrows at the heart. As long as one of the arrows succeeds, it will be an unexpected surprise.
There were so many of them that the rolled up yellow sand became a protective layer for Jun Ci.
Jun Ci's arrow did disrupt the enemy army, but it only stumbled a few dozen people, and the pursuers at the front were only fifty steps away from Jun Ci.
If the yellow sand hadn't filled the sky, they would have already bent their bows and arrows, aiming at Jun Ci.
Jun Ci's horse gallops, she can't roll up much yellow sand by herself, and her vision is clear.
She glanced around, as if searching for something, and kept a distance from the enemy soldiers at a distance where the person at the front could not shoot her. After about half a quarter of an hour, she finally found a low sand dune.
The chapped lips curled up, and Jun Ci slowed down without a trace.
The enemy's distance shortened from about fifty steps to only forty steps, and gradually to only thirty steps.
Through the rising sand mist, they could see the figure gradually becoming clearer, which greatly encouraged the chasing soldiers, and they moved forward even more vigorously.
Just when they were only twenty steps away from Jun Ci, Jun Ci suddenly took control of the horse, and the horse leapt over the sand dune and landed not too deep below.
The sand dunes were not high, the enemy soldiers were galloping in large numbers, and they could not see the front clearly from a distance. Moreover, they were attracted by the target Jun Ci, so these people ignored the environment.
When they saw the height of the sand dune clearly, they paid no attention to it and had no intention of jumping over it with their horses.
They were about to give chase, but the horse's hoofs landed on the back of the sand dune, but the sand suddenly sank, and both the man and the horse fell headlong.
The slope was not high and the sand was soft, so a fall would not be fatal, but it could not hold up too many people. The first group fell down, and the second group had no time to stop. They fell after them, and even a third group fell.
People and horses collided with each other. The frightened horses jumped up and ran around out of control. Many people were stepped on the chest...
There are many sand dunes in the desert, some are high and some are low, some are virtual and some are real. Even people who live in the desert all year round cannot tell the difference between the real and the real.
Jun Ci has some experience, but this time there is still a bit of gambling in it. Facts have proved that the sky still favors her.
After once again closing the distance between him and the enemy, Jun Ci glanced back while he was galloping.
The enemy army was disturbed again and again by Jun Ci, and their morale was already unstable. The hot weather made them impatient, but they had no intention of letting Jun Ci go.
There are a lot of our own people lying under the sand dune. They can't jump twice like Jun Ci and chase after their own people. This sand dune is not high, but it is not short.
Under the command, the soldiers and horses bypassed the sand dunes from both sides and pursued Jun Ci again.
At this time, Jun Ci had already caught up with Yuan You. Seeing that no pursuers were catching up, Yuan You hurriedly handed Jun Ci a water bag.
Everything they needed was at Yuan You's place. Jun Ci licked his chapped lips and took the drink, not as heavily as before, but in small sips.
"There is still water." Yuan You mistakenly thought that Jun Ci was reluctant to use it more, and patted the water bag on Achi's horse.
"Drinking slowly will not harm your body." Jun Ci explained.
This was told to her by a lama she rescued in the desert, and later she found out that it was indeed true.
"If your Majesty is hungry or thirsty, you can eat some now. We can only rest for half a stick of incense." Jun Ci handed the water bag back to Yuan You and warned.
Yuan You silently took it back and put it back on Ah Chi: "I will take care of myself."
Jun Ci has always protected him very well and given him as many opportunities to rest as possible. He cannot share the burden for Jun Ci. This life is related to the life and death of countless ministers in the Northern Dynasty, and he will definitely cherish it.
"Can't we run away and hide now?" Yuan You asked.
Jun Ci pointed to the horse hoof prints along the way: "There is nowhere to hide."
Unless they can fly and escape without leaving any mark.
"The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. They take turns chasing us. How can we get out of trouble?" Yuan You felt deep worry in his heart.
One team of enemy troops was galloping in hot pursuit, two teams were slowly catching up, and three teams would hand over each other. Even if they could distance themselves for a moment, they could always catch up by following the traces, but they could never rest for a long time.
In such a hot desert, even if they can endure it, the horses can't!
"It's just a thousand cavalry, but I was hoping for an army of tens of thousands." Jun Ci's eyes flashed with fighting spirit, and he was full of dissatisfaction with the number of pursuers.
Yuan You:……
Jun Ci: Only a thousand people are chasing me, it’s not fun!
