The leader of the Xiren scouts who was trying to persuade him to surrender did not expect that the opponent would shoot at will at a distance of 150 steps. When he heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air, it was too late to lead his horse to avoid them. He had to wave the horse's rein in his hand to pluck the arrow shaft. It was soft.
How could the horse's reins move Li Xu's hateful shot? The arrow was slightly deflected and pierced into his shoulder with a "pop" sound.
"Ah!" The scout leader screamed and fell off his horse. When the other scouts saw it, they immediately drew out their scimitars and roared towards Li Xu.
"First round, shoot!" Xu Dayan ordered.
Li Xu followed the instructions taught by his uncle Jiu, quickly nocked an arrow, and shot another arrow. This time his arrow missed and flew past the enemy's leather hat. His partner Duer was experienced and he knew that he
He was not sure of hitting someone a hundred steps away, so he traced the feather arrow on the opponent's horse. The Xi Ren scout rushing at the front was brandishing his sword and shouting, and the horse under his crotch suddenly let out a mournful cry and fell down with a long hiss.
land.
The scout on horseback was caught off guard and was thrown far away. His body curled up into a ball and rolled back and forth on the snow in pain, and he was about to die.
"Second round, shoot!" Seeing that the enemy had already rushed within eighty steps, Xu Dayan gave the order in a deep voice.
Ba Ximi and Cai Diotai were also very good at arrowing. One hit a man and the other hit a horse. The scouts who came to attack immediately killed two more people, and the remaining ones still rushed forward, shouting.
The sound gradually became weaker.
"Third round, shoot!" Xu Dayan raised his hand and fired an arrow, hitting the opponent's horse's head with one arrow. Aslan's feather arrow was accurate and hard, and he shot it from the throat of a galloping scout, but the tip of the arrow was
It came out from the back of the other person's neck.
The horses' heads of Li Xu and others were originally pointing in the direction of their own tribe. After three rounds of shooting, without waiting for Xu Dayan's greeting, everyone clamped down on the horse's belly and ran away. While running for their lives, they turned around and fired arrows at the scouts. In the rush
Although he no longer had the accuracy to fire his bow while standing still, he could turn his head and shoot back, taking advantage of both the wind direction and the horse's speed. If viewed from a distance, the Xi Ren scouts chasing after him seemed to be actively chasing Li Xu.
When someone's arrow tip came up, even though he was not hit, he was frightened and scrambled.
Some scouts cursed and bent their bows to shoot, but it was difficult to aim against the wind. The mounts of Li Xu and others were accelerating forward again, and their arrows often failed to reach them and were blown away by the wind.
The scouts chased for three or five miles, but could not catch up with Li Xu and others, and could not worry about their leader, so they retreated angrily. Xu Dayan immediately ordered everyone to slow down their escape speed and let the horse walk slowly to restore Li's strength.
Although Xu's arrow hit the target unexpectedly, it did not kill anyone. When the scouts recovered their minds from the shock, they would definitely ride their horses to chase them. And if everyone stayed with them for a moment longer on the road, they would be able to
To gain one more chance for the two girls to escape.
The situation changed as expected. Half an hour later, the sound of horse hooves sounded again behind everyone. This time the scouts no longer tried to persuade Li Xu and others to surrender, but divided into two groups, one rushing straight and the other diagonally.
Then they rounded off to the north and intercepted them, obviously intending to annihilate them all in one battle.
"We don't care about the outflanking in front. First we shoot a few arrows at the pursuers behind us. Then we slash these bastards with our swords, scatter them, and grab the horses!" Xu Dayan estimated the number and distance of the opponent, and lowered his voice.
Voice command.
The last thing the scout leader should do is to expose the total number of his own side in his complacency. In the previous battle, including the one Li Xu shot and wounded, at least six of the twenty-eight scouts were unable to join the battlefield.
The remaining twenty-two people were divided into two groups, and the number of people in each group would not exceed fifteen. They calculated the horse speed of Xu Dayan and others, divided their troops into two groups, chased all the way, intercepted all the way, but Xu Dayan just missed.
You have to turn around and charge hard, so that you can't block the road before you can turn around and join up with the pursuers.
After hearing the order, Li Xu and others took the war horses again. This time, while the Xi Ren scouts were not paying attention, they rushed the horses' heads towards the enemy. The Xi Ren scouts who were responsible for chasing the prey from behind saw that Li Xu and others stopped and continued to run away.
, thinking that they were going to repeat their old tricks and take advantage of them and run away again. They roared angrily and accelerated towards them.
"Shoot in turn!" Xu Dayan ordered in a low voice.
Li Xu and Duer bent their bows and nocked arrows, and shot at the two scouts who were rushing forward. One of the arrows hit the opponent's chest, and the other arrow missed because the scout's horse jumped diagonally while running. The other scouts missed the target.
He didn't ask any questions about the injured, and went straight to kill Li Xu and others.
Ba Ximi and Cai Diotai fired arrows and shot down a war horse together. Xi Ren's charging formation was blocked by the fallen horse and was delayed for a while. Xu Dayan and Aslan saw the opportunity.
Each defeated an enemy.
"Draw your sword, counterattack!" Xu Dayan shouted, hid his bow, drew his sword, and rushed towards the enemy first. Aslan rushed while hanging his bow at his side, waving his scimitar to protect Xu Dayan's left wing
Basimi followed closely, and together with Aslan, caught Xu Dayan in the middle. When Li Xu rushed out, Duer and Ediotai followed the same pattern, one on the left and the other on the right, to protect him tightly.
The Xiren scouts did not expect that four shepherds and two and a half-year-old children would dare to challenge them, and they were stunned. At a distance of fifty steps, the two horses were facing each other in the blink of an eye. In such a short period of time,
, Yi Leng Shen's mistake could be fatal. The scimitar in Xu Dayan's hand was slanted and wiped along the chest of the scout opposite him. The sharp blade, with the help of the speed of the war horse, immediately cut off the thick leather clothes and skin.
At the same time, they were cut open, and a bloody gash that was more than a foot long burst out on Xi Ren's body.
"Ah--" The scout watched in disbelief as he was struck by a half-grown child, screaming and falling off his horse. Without looking back, Xu Da rushed towards the other scout with his sword. Aslan and Basimi each
He faced an opponent and blocked the threats from both sides for Xu Dayan. Without worries, Xu Dayan's hands and feet became more nimble. He deflected the opponent's scimitar at the moment when the two horses stepped on each other, and then used the knife in his own hand as a
Use a leather whip and withdraw it with your backhand.
With one stroke, blood immediately appeared on the opponent's back. The scout did not dare to continue fighting, so he grabbed his mount and fled. After escaping for more than a hundred steps, he fell into the horse's belly due to excessive blood loss. He suffered.
The frightened mount did not know that its master was dead, and continued to run wildly while neighing. The stirrups dragged the body, leaving a long and wide red mark on the white blood ground.
The Xi people who can be selected as scouts are not weak in skills. Under normal circumstances, it is easy for thirteen scouts to hunt down four herdsmen and two teenagers. Who would have expected to meet a six-year-old on the grassland?
He practiced martial arts and worked hard on weapons for ten years. He was a hero of the Central Plains who was cultivated by his family as a hope for revitalization. With Xu Dayan's current skills, they would not get any benefits from one-on-one with a knife, let alone them.
Even if you search the entire grassland, you may not be able to find a hundred opponents. So as soon as the two sides fought, the scouts suffered a big loss of underestimating the enemy. In the blink of an eye, Xu Dayan killed two of them cleanly. The guards were in Xu
Since Aslan and Bathimi who were beside Big Eye were entrusted with important tasks by the elders, they were naturally good at swordsmanship. The two of them cut down an opponent each, and protected Xu Big Eye from the middle of the Xiren scout team.
Went through.
It was the first time in Li Xu's life that he used a knife to kill someone, and his hands and feet inevitably lost control. He followed Xu Dayan and danced the machete wildly, but he was able to pass through the formation unscathed. There was no blood on himself or his companions.
, he was about to take a long breath, but Xu Dayan turned his horse's head and rushed back with Aslan and Basimi.
The scouts who rushed to outflank them would soon find that they had been defeated. If they could not grab the horses before they came back, everyone would not be able to escape back to the tribe. So even though Li Xu felt bile rising in his throat,
Mouth, even though he knew that his legs were constantly trembling, he still tried his best to suppress his stomach that was tumbling up and down due to the smell of blood, turned his horse's head, and followed closely behind Xu Dayan and others.
A 霫人 would not abandon his friends and run away alone. Li Xu was not a 霫人, but that did not mean that his bones were softer than those of Su Chuan. As for whether the scimitar in his hand was as hard as his bones, that question was soon
Here is the answer. Four of the thirteen scouts were killed by everyone in the first wave of confrontation. Now it was nine against six. Two people fought Xu Dayan together, two people held Aslan back, and the remaining
The strength of the five of them is more than enough to deal with Li Xu, Du'er, Bashimi and Cai Tuitai.
This time, Li Xu's body no longer needed to tremble. If he couldn't kill the opponent in front of him, he would die. Although Duer and Ediotai had the responsibility to protect him, they were each entangled by a Xiren scout.
He didn't have the energy to save him. Li Xu had never learned the technique of cavalry charging, and he didn't even understand the reason why the curved shape of the scimitar was to lengthen the blade so that the speed of the war horse could be used to cut the enemy.
Suddenly he picked up a knife and fought with someone, and immediately he was in danger. Fortunately, he had been helping adults with menial tasks at home since he was a child. His martial arts skills were not refined, but his arms were very strong. He used the machete as a woodcutter.
Putting on a lose-lose posture, although the opponent cannot be knocked off his horse, he will not be killed in a single encounter. However, in this way, both the enemy and us can no longer use the horse power, allowing other people around him to rush in.
When they rushed forward, Li Xu and his opponent just hovered on the spot and hacked at each other.
"Dang, Dang!" After Li Xu blocked the opponent's two swords in a row, he saw the opportunity and slashed back with a knife. This knife slashed wide open and closed, and there was no flaw in his chest, shoulders, thighs, etc. But the scout did not.
He was sure to cut open Li Xu's blood vessels without being smashed to death by him with his machete. He had to turn the head of the knife and hit Li Xu forcefully. The two swords met in mid-air and made a harsh resonance. Li Xu
His shoulders were numb and his head was numb from the shock. But he gritted his teeth and used the blocked blade as a mace, and swung it back again.
"Dang!" The scout knocked Li Xu's weapon crooked again with his machete. The pain in the tiger's mouth was like being pricked by a needle. He had guessed that Li Xu was weakest, so he rushed forward to take this big advantage. But he didn't
Thinking that the half-grown kid in front of him was so difficult to deal with, his arm strength was twice that of an ordinary boy, and his personality was surprisingly stubborn. Several times, I had clearly handed the scimitar to him, but instead of avoiding it, he didn't know how to dodge.
He slammed the weapon into his face. (To be continued)
