A few hundred meters away, the masked cavalry seemed to have noticed something. They let out a few low shouts and started their horses to trot over.
The messy sound of horse hooves sounded.
From far to near.
Shen Lie was shocked.
He quickly stopped and directed Wang Hu's men to lower their bodies, staring intently at the cavalrymen who were approaching.
Shen Lie felt bitter in his heart.
At this time, he did not dare to retreat into the dense forest, but hurriedly lay down on the ground.
He also conveniently held down Wang Hu, the leader of the team.
The two of them slowly lay down on the ground together.
The other two Dongchang fans nearby shivered in fear, and regardless of the mud after the rain, they instinctively crouched down in the bushes.
The bushes made several small cuts on his face.
A twinge of pain.
Shen Lie tightened his grip on the flintlock musket in his hand, and his palms were sweating. He had no other choice in this situation, so he and his three men had to take advantage of the cover of dense bushes.
Lying down tightly.
I hope to avoid the search of these cavalry.
But the messy sound of horse hooves in my ears is getting closer and closer...
Soon it will be close at hand.
When several riders came galloping, less than fifty meters away from Shen Lie and others, the atmosphere became tense, and huge pressure hit them.
The pressure is suffocating.
Then the masked cavalry slowed down their horses and began to poke at the bushes with their brow-pointed knives. They also let out a few low shouts from time to time.
"who?"
"come out!"
Several loud shouts were heard.
However, Shen Lie remained motionless, holding down Wang Hu with his big iron-like hands and shaking his head at him. This group of thieves was very cunning.
These cavalrymen were obviously not heading towards the hiding place of themselves and others, and were still far away. This must be a plan to arouse the enemy.
But at this moment, a fan suddenly jumped up not far away, screamed in panic and ran away frantically into the woods.
"It's over!"
Shen Lie's heart skipped a beat and became cold.
Exposed.
I'm afraid I won't be able to leave now.
Then a fierce battle broke out suddenly.
Between the electric light and flint.
Taking advantage of the escaping fanzi to attract the attention of the enemy cavalry, Shen Lie jumped up from the bushes without having time to take aim.
Then he raised his flintlock musket and pointed it at the masked cavalry.
Then he hugged the fire.
With the bang of muskets, countless birds were startled in the bushes and dense forests. The masked cavalry were caught off guard, and the horses under their crotches were frightened.
They all neighed.
"Herod."
Gunshot.
Birds fly.
The horse was startled.
The war horses without professional training neighed and raised their front hooves, almost knocking several masked cavalrymen on their backs to the ground.
Several masked cavalrymen hurriedly tried their best to control their horses.
Shen Lie's plan succeeded.
Don't dare to fight.
He dragged the almost limp Wang Hu and ran away.
The wind is tight, pull!
Fortunately, the position of the few people at this time was not far from the dense forest next to the river bank. As the four people fled into the forest in a hurry, they fled without even bothering to identify the east, west, north, and south.
But in just a moment, the masked cavalry outside the forest had already controlled the horses, and they all started to rush into the forest, shouting and shouting.
In the dense forest.
Shen Lie looked back and saw that the cavalrymen were chasing after him again. In a hurry, he dragged the stumbling Wang Hu, stepped on the thick fallen leaves, and ran towards the depths of the dense forest.
Fortunately, the dense forest was very slippery after the rain, and the speed of the masked cavalry was greatly restricted, allowing Shen Lie and the two to quickly put some distance between them.
A quarter of an hour later.
Shen Lie, who was running desperately, felt his vision go dark and quickly stopped.
Although he was in good physical condition, he couldn't run without dragging a burden, so he had no choice but to drag the dead dog-like Wang Hu and hide behind a big tree.
Then he bent over and gasped violently.
Panted for a while.
Shen Lie looked back at Wang Hu, who was lying limply on the ground. He was so frightened that he was crying. His face was filled with tears, and his tears were flowing down his nose mixed with snot.
What a coward...
Shen Lie felt helpless in his heart.
Looking around, he saw that two of his subordinates had already dispersed.
Feeling helpless.
Shen Lie had no choice but to forcefully pull Wang Hu up, reach out his hand, and slap his face hard several times, forcing him to wake up.
"Wang Hu!"
Wang Hu was frightened, but was slapped awake by several big slaps. He looked at Shen Lie with a pair of frightened eyes, and wiped his nose again...
This is what it looks like.
Shen Lie was speechless for a while, assessed the situation, and shouted to Wang Hu: "Run!"
Wang Hu was stunned.
Only then did he realize that Master Qianhu was trying to cover his escape, so the tears of disappointment fell down.
Wang Hu sobbed and said, "My lord?"
The words are not finished yet.
Then Shen Lie kicked him hard on the butt and cursed angrily: "If you don't get out, you won't be able to leave any longer!"
The opponent is a cavalryman.
There is no way you can escape dragging this burden with you.
This kick is hard enough.
After kicking Wang Hu deep into the forest, watching him fall down, get up again and stumble away, Shen Lie sat down behind a tree.
Then he took out the gunpowder pot and gun, and began to load the musket in his hand.
But I was obviously very anxious.
However, Shen Lie's hands refused to obey his orders and he could not pour the gunpowder into the gun chamber even after several attempts.
He cursed in his heart, don’t laugh at Wang Hu. He was also a rookie entering the battle for the first time. At this time, his legs were weak and his hands were shaking...
Feeling helpless.
Shen Lie had no choice but to put down his long gun and took out a short gun from his waist. But at this moment, a masked cavalryman carrying a long spear suddenly rushed out from behind a tree.
One man and one horse met each other.
Shen Lie and the Masked Cavalry reacted at the same time.
As the masked cavalry let out a clear low cry, the war horse under its crotch neighed and raised its front hooves high.
A spear was thrust towards Shen Lie.
Shen Lie rolled on the spot, raised his short spear and blasted away.
There was another gunshot.
The horse under the masked cavalry felt as if it had been hit by a giant hammer. It screamed and fell down, knocking its owner off the horse.
The horse stumbles.
The masked cavalry fell from his horse to the ground and rolled several times in the forest. Shen Lie was overjoyed and was about to pounce on him to get to know him.
However, they never expected that the masked cavalry stretched out his hands very quickly, and when Shen Lie was about to pounce in front of him, he made a carp kick.
He unexpectedly jumped up from the ground again.
After the harsh sound of friction between the sword and the scabbard, a sharp and long Miao sword appeared out of thin air in the hands of the masked cavalry.
Shen Lie was shocked and quickly stopped, steadied his body, and looked at the masked cavalry in surprise. He never imagined that this man's skills were so high.
Separated by a distance of more than ten meters.
The two looked at each other.
Embarrassed.
Look carefully.
The cavalryman had his face covered so that his appearance could not be clearly seen. He was tall but a little frail. He was also looking at Shen Lie and the short spear in Shen Lie's hand with a pair of shining eyes.
Rolling his eyes, the masked cavalry looked at the musket in Shen Lie's hand and quickly let out a clear cold snort: "Dog thief!"
He seemed to realize that Shen Lie had just fired a cannon and killed his horse. Now there was no ammunition in the short gun...
