The bow opens like a full moon, and the arrow moves like a shooting star.
Hua Rong nestled in the canopy of a big tree on the hillside, and killed a Rong clan member with one arrow. The angle was tricky enough, and the arrow skills were good enough.
Several other Rong clan members at the top of the peak were also alarmed. They looked up and looked around, but they still didn't know where the murderer was.
But Hua Rong had already grasped the second arrow, and it was another steady and sharp arrow. In a moment, Hua Rong killed another person.
At this moment, the remaining few people discovered Hua Rong's existence. They all hurriedly took off the big bows behind them and prepared to shoot Hua Rong with random arrows.
But Hua Rong had been on guard for a long time. He opened his bow with a flurry of arrows, and easily killed several people in a flash of light and flint.
Cheng Dalei was still nestling in the dense forest, waiting for Hua Rong's reply. After a long time, Hua Rong did not come back. Gao Feibao asked: "Master, Hua Rong hasn't returned yet, is there something wrong that hasn't been sorted out?
Do you need me to go take a look?"
"Wait a minute, wait a minute." Cheng Dalei still had confidence in Hua Rong, but in this environment, he was inevitably a little confused.
If he didn't come back, Cheng Dalei had made up his mind to go and have a look in person. Just as he was thinking about it, he saw Hua Rong hurrying from outside the forest, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Cheng Dalei.
"Reporting to the great master, the bandits at the peak have been killed by a certain family."
It didn't take long to come and go, so we still can't underestimate the leader of Huazhai. Cheng Dalei nodded: "Okay, this matter is General Hua's first achievement."
Hua Rong added: "My subordinates climbed up to the mountain peak and looked far into the distance. It seemed that they found the place where the Rong tribe was camping."
Cheng Dalei's eyes lit up: "This is true."
"My subordinates saw that they have tents and the smoke is rising, so it is true."
"Wonderful." Cheng Dalei clapped his hands: "It's really hard to find a place after wearing iron shoes. It takes no effort to get here. General Hua leads the way. Brothers, the day of revenge has come."
Hua Rong had just made a great achievement, and even though he was a little tired at the moment, he was still full of energy.
Traveling in the mountains is actually extremely strenuous. People like Gao Feihu and Gao Feibao were all born bandits and grew up in deep mountains and dense forests. Now they walk across the mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground.
Everyone's mounts were taken away by Shi Wengong and Liu Bei to help the wounded on their way. Only Cheng Dalei's black bull was a strange thing. It could float in water and walk in mountains. It was also rough and rugged as usual.
Probably before dark, everyone rushed to the place where the Rong people camped.
This is a river beach in the mountains, a rare flat land in the mountains and forests. Cheng Dalei and his group were nesting in the woods. Looking over from a distance, they saw more than a dozen large tents, with soldiers making fires and cooking. Occasionally, they could see a few people wearing clothes.
The splendid Rong general.
It is true that it is the command post of the Rong tribe.
"Tsk, tsk." Cheng Dalei sighed: "The Rong tribe is becoming more and more arrogant. They are camping in low areas and their security is sparse. Do you really think they can go sideways in this empire?"
"If the Rong tribe came here, we might have fled to the northwest. We would never have thought that we would kill a carbine. In this case, it is normal for the defense to be lax," Hua Rong said.
Cheng Dalei nodded. The various princes in the empire fought against the Rong tribe. They fought back and forth, but no one could compete with the Rong tribe. It was impossible for the Rong tribe not to be proud of the consecutive victories.
Cheng Dalei has had a lot of dealings with the Rong tribe and has a deep understanding of them. The Rong tribe is by no means without their weaknesses. Their ability to mobilize troops and generals and organize the team is far from that of the imperial army. But they can rely on their riding skills.
With their swordsmanship and their fearlessness of death, they were able to win every battle.
"Master, I think they have more than 2,000 people. If we attack by force, we may not be able to defeat them." Gao Feihu asked: "Master, what should we plan?"
Cheng Dalei thought for a moment, then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Let's return the fire to them and let them understand the principle of tit for tat."
Cheng Dalei divided his men into four groups, and the three groups set fire on three sides, leaving only the north side alone. Once the fire started, the Rong tribe would definitely break out from the north road.
Cheng Dalei led a group of people to the north, killing one one and two pairs.
Everything was arranged, and it was still early in the morning. Cheng Dalei told everyone to rest temporarily and wait for the opportunity.
At the third watch of the day, the south wind blew. As agreed in advance, everyone started setting fires at the same time.
Fires were burning in the east, south, and north at the same time. The wind helped the fire, and the fire became more powerful. The fire burned fiercely, and the place was instantly illuminated as bright as day.
The same is true for arson, and arson also has its own particularities. When it comes to killing people and setting fires, there is obviously a big gap between the Rong people and Cheng Dalei.
The reactions of both sides were also different. Cheng Dalei had set up scouts in advance and responded immediately before the fire started.
In comparison, the reaction of the Rong tribe was slower. When the fire burned the sky, the Rong tribe reacted in a hurry.
At this moment, there were fires on three sides, but there was no fire on the north side. Everyone ignored them and fled to the north.
In the north, Cheng Dalei has been waiting for a long time. He is riding a black bull and holding a ghost-faced ax. He looks vicious and looks like a demon in the fire scene.
After the big ax was swung, it was really bloody. The terrain in the north was narrow, and people were crowded and everyone was bumping into each other. The Rong tribe couldn't organize a fighting force at all. It was like stretching their heads and waiting for Cheng Dalei to come and kill them.
After the fire started, the other three groups of people had gathered. Although the team only had more than 300 people, it was very powerful.
In this battle, the Rong tribe was really defeated. Cheng Dalei and his gang were accustomed to killing people, and they looked even more ferocious in the light of the fire.
After a night of mass killing, of the more than 2,000 Rong tribesmen who were trapped here, less than one in ten managed to escape. After the mountain fire was extinguished, the place was filled with charred and cooked corpses, and there was a disgusting smell in the air.
.
Most of those who fled to the north were beheaded by Cheng Dalei. On the contrary, those who broke through from the south, east and west, some of them were lucky enough to escape.
A group of people were extremely embarrassed and fled back to the Rong tribe's base camp at the foot of Chang'an.
In the big tent, Nohara Huo's face was as deep as water, listening to the reports from his subordinates.
"You said just now...that Cheng Dalei is here?" Nohara Huo asked slowly.
The visitor knelt on the ground and did not dare to raise his head: "My subordinate must have read correctly. The man riding a black bull and using a big ax as a weapon is undoubtedly that Cheng Dalei."
"He's actually here too." Nohara Huo frowned, not knowing what he was thinking about.
"Your Majesty, Cheng Dalei is the leader of the Liangzhou thieves and will be our enemy sooner or later. Killing one of him is worth a million soldiers. If not mobilize the army, let him die in the mountains." Bai Wushuang said.
Nohara Huo frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Take the people back."
"Your Majesty, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you let the tiger return to the mountains, there will be endless troubles."
Nohara Huo shook his head: "Cheng Dalei is not alone. Killing him is not easy. We don't have too many people to spare. In the future, there will definitely be a chance to meet him again."
Bai Wushuang was about to say something else, but Nohara Huo waved his hand and interrupted, saying something in his mouth.
"Tit for retaliation, the boss has done his duty."
