"Go and find out. If you can achieve the best result, forget it if you can't. It shouldn't be a problem to escape unscathed."
Long Chen's current cultivation level has reached the peak of the king, and he is only one step away from returning to the realm of the Martial Emperor.
With such a level of cultivation, even if he can't kill the leader of the thief, he should be able to escape intact.
Feng He shook his head and advised: "My lord is the commander-in-chief, you shouldn't do this kind of assassination."
Long Chen said: "I know, I will think about it myself, just go and find out."
Long Chen is the head coach and he has the final say on the final result. Feng He can't say much.
"good."
Feng He ducked out of the room and went out to the city himself to inquire about the news.
In Qianjiang County, everyone knew that the pirates were coming to attack the city for revenge. Some people wanted to leave, so Long Chen ordered the doors to be opened to let them go.
Those who were allocated the property of the Third Ancestor were unwilling to leave. They were afraid that after leaving, the property would become someone else's property. They were Long Chen's staunch supporters.
These people actively helped strengthen the city's defenses and helped make crossbow arrows, which played a great role.
Long Chen stood next to the school field and watched Dugu Jiali training the new recruits in archery.
These recruits are all big-bodied men. They must have arm strength and endurance to continuously draw a bow and shoot arrows. Most people cannot be crossbowmen.
Ye Chang was born with ape-like arms and great strength, so he was selected by Dugu Jiali for special training.
Ye Chang also has a talent. When he bends his bow and draws an arrow, he can hit a target a hundred meters away with half the accuracy.
In an open space next to her, Bai Tingting was practicing her crossbow.
There was a target 50 meters away. Bai Tingting aimed at the crossbow and fired repeatedly. On average, she could only hit one out of ten arrows, which was an extremely low hit rate.
"You call yourself a hero, is this your level?"
Long Chen couldn't help but complain.
Bai Tingting said helplessly: "I have always used a sword, but I have never used a crossbow. How do I know how to shoot?"
Long Chen picked up the crossbow machine and demonstrated to Bai Tingting: "The crossbow machine must be level, with three points and one line, and the distance must be considered. After the crossbow arrow is shot, it will be affected by gravity, and its flight trajectory will be an arc."
With that said, Long Chen shot out an arrow and hit the target.
Bai Tingting asked: "What is the influence of gravity?"
Uh, how do you explain this?
Could it be that there was a man named Newton who sat under an apple tree one day and discovered the force of gravity?
Long Chen thought for a while and said: "For example, if Zhang Qian's is bigger than yours, she will go down. If yours is smaller, she can be very upright."
Bai Tingting was stunned for a moment, then cursed: "You bullied me again!"
Dugu Jiali from a distance came over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "I'm teaching her archery."
Bai Tingting complained: "He eats my tofu! He is shameless!"
Long Chen tried his best to defend himself: "I really didn't."
Dugu Jiali gave Long Chen a look of contempt and said, "Ignore him, that's what he is like. I was also deceived last time."
These days, Dugu Jiali has been thinking about artificial respiration and finally figured it out.
Bai Tingting asked: "Why did he lie to you?"
Dugu Jiali blushed instantly and said, "It's nothing, I'll teach you archery, just ignore him."
This time, the two victimized girls shared their experiences of being deceived.
Long Chen felt bored and went to the city wall to see the defensive arrangements.
Crossbow arrows, kerosene, and rolling stones and wood have all been moved onto the city wall, and the damaged areas have been repaired.
Under the city, Wu Jian directed a group of people to pull a huge log over on a cart. Long Chen was surprised to find that it was actually a part of a catapult.
Long Chen jumped down, landed in front of the cart, and asked: "Why is there a catapult?"
Wu Jian smiled and said: "Sir, you would never have imagined that there is actually a large warehouse hidden under Xu's house. There are many weapons in it, including catapults."
Long Chen asked in surprise: "How many catapults are there?"
Wu Jian said: "Five, this is the first one. They can all be installed today. There is still a lot of kerosene in it. We can make incendiary bombs."
Long Chen smiled and said: "Killing the three of them is my wisest choice. I have exploded so many equipment and high-quality NPCs."
Wu Jian didn't understand and asked: "What the hell?"
Long Chen smiled and said: "It's nothing, hurry up and put it together, make the kerosene into an incendiary bomb, and burn these idiots to death."
Wu Jian quickly loaded up the five catapults and aimed them all at the East City Gate. The kerosene was used to look like incendiary bombs.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the pirates to come.
Two days later.
Long Chen stood on the east city gate, next to him were Zhang Qian and Wu Jian, Dugu Jiali and Bai Tingting stood together, and Wu Chuchu and Wu Xiangyun stood together.
The crossbowmen held crossbows and quivers hung from their waists, the soldiers put on armor, their swords and spears were ready, and the catapults in the city were filled with kerosene bombs.
The common people closed their doors one after another, and those near the city gate took temporary refuge in the governor's mansion.
Just now Feng He sent news that the pirates were ten miles away and would soon reach Qianjiang County.
The wind blew from the southeast, bringing the warmth of spring, and everyone was very nervous.
To the east, a figure appeared, stretching for a mile to the left and right.
Under the sun, you can see the swords, helmets and armor reflecting the sunlight.
"Here we come! Get ready to fight!"
Wu Jian shouted and everyone prepared to fight.
The pirates walked forward slowly. Dugu Jiali looked into the distance, her face suddenly changed: "That is"
Wu Chuchu also saw it, and was so angry that he yelled: "These damn people are doing this again!"
Long Chen also saw that the people walking in the front were not pirates, but ordinary people.
These pirates pushed the captured civilians to the front to serve as human shields, and followed behind to attack.
Behind the common people's team were tens of thousands of pirates, armed with various weapons and holding Shura flags high.
Several leaders wearing armor and riding tall horses followed behind.
Wu Xiangyun cursed angrily: "This is what they did last time when they attacked Zhenhai. They pushed the villagers ahead. We didn't dare to shoot arrows, so they took advantage of the situation and attacked."
Standing on the city wall, Long Chen could see a tall pirate behind him, holding a scimitar in his hand, driving the people forward.
The people who were unwilling to leave were hacked to death with a knife, and the sound of crying and wailing could be heard, and everyone was extremely angry.
Bai Tingting heard the wailing and saw that there were old people, children, and even pregnant women in the team below the city. She turned around and asked Long Chen: "What should I do?"
Wu Chuchu had suffered a loss, and she was also very sad, but she knew she could not be soft-hearted, otherwise Qianjiang County would become Zhenhai County and tens of thousands of people would be massacred.
Both Zhang Qian and Dugu Jiali have been on the battlefield for a long time and are used to life and death. They will not open the city gate to save people just because of these people in front of them.
"We have no choice. We can't open the door to save people. Some of these people are pirates. Once we open the door, Qianjiang County will be destroyed."
Wu Xiangyun shook his head helplessly and sighed.
The last lesson was too painful and she learned to be cruel.
Bai Tingting asked unwillingly: "Are we just going to watch them being killed?"
The pirates drove the people forward and saw that they were almost a hundred steps away. This distance was the best distance for shooting arrows.
"Master Long, think of a way!"
Bai Tingting was so anxious that she almost cried.
Although she is unruly and willful, she really cares about the people, so she disguises herself as a man and becomes a ranger.
The tall pirate brandished a machete and hacked an old woman to death. The old man next to him leaned over and hugged the old woman, but was also hacked to death by the pirate.
Long Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Give me the bow!"
