Chapter 498 You Shoot Me One Arrow, I'll Give You Twenty-One Arrows
Late at night the next day, Xiao Tang, Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Shi Xiu, Zhu Jing, Shi Jin, Chen Da, Yang Chun, and Han Shizhong, Hua Rong, and Shi Qian who rushed to the village from Daming Mansion led a total of eleven leaders.
Thousands of infantry soldiers picked up luan bells, and received the rank of sergeant. Guided by the two monks, they quietly moved forward in the dark and headed straight for the Fahua Temple located in the east of Zengtou City.
When Xiao Tang led his army to Fahua Temple and rode into the temple, he saw that there was no one in the temple and there was a deathly silence everywhere. Xiao Tang looked sideways at the two monks and asked: "
How come there is no monk in this huge monastery?"
One of the monks rolled his eyes and said: "It is because of the Zeng family's beasts that most of the monks in the temple have no choice but to return to their secular lives. Only the elders and a few attendants live freely in the pagoda courtyard. The leader is staying here for the time being.
After gathering the people and horses, when the night got deeper, the young monk led the leaders directly to the village."
Xiao Tang nodded and asked again: "Master said that in order to prevent us from outflanking, the guys in Zengtou City set up stockades in the east, west, south and north. In this case, does the master know that the Zeng family's large group of people are there?
Stationed in the village?"
After hearing this, the monk immediately replied to Xiao Tang: "The gang in Zengtou City set up four stockades, but the south stockade is where the Zeng brothers stationed their troops. If we only break that stockade, the rest of the night will be gone.
Hurry up."
After hearing this, Xiao Tang laughed again and said: "Then according to Master's wishes, can we go to rob the stronghold now?"
The monk shook his head hurriedly and said: "It's only the second watch now, and by the third watch, the soldiers guarding the camp must have fallen asleep, so we can go."
While Xiao Tang nodded in response, he turned around and winked at the leaders who had come to rob the camp. Finally, when the watchmen beating claps and gongs were no longer heard around Zengtou City, the two
The monk then said: "The defenders in Zengtou City must have rested by now. All the kings, please follow me."
Xiao Tang and all his brothers mounted their horses, led their troops and left the Fahua Temple. Under the guidance of the two monks, they went straight to the southern village of Zengtou City where they said they would lead the army.
The dark night became more and more like a thick inkstone. Except for the occasional rustling noise of the green forest troops led by Xiao Tang, the surroundings were as silent as dead water. After walking another four or five miles, in front of us
The monk leading the way walked more and more hastily, and inadvertently, he had already opened some distance from Xiao Tang and his group.
However, at this time, Shi Xiu and Hua Rong had already rode their horses to Xiao Tang's side. Shi Xiu whispered to Xiao Tang: "Brother, it's as you expected. Look, these two bald guys are getting more and more sneaky."
, it seems that the ambush in Zengtou City is nearby!"
Xiao Tang smiled coldly and said: "Killing the enemy by surprise is the only way this ambush strategy can be used successfully. But now that our army is on guard, we are not the ones who are caught off guard now..."
After Xiao Tang finished speaking, he gave instructions to Hua Rong: "Brother Hua Rong, when the gang of slaves in Zengtou City want to ambush us later, they must use hidden arrows to hurt people. You lead the eighteen cavalry and shoot them one at a time to suppress the position.
Once you’ve pinpointed the enemy’s location, you’ll have to rely on your ability with magic arrows!”
Hua Rong nodded decisively and said: "Brother, don't worry! Whoever dares to show off their skills with bows and arrows will be killed by the bow and arrow! But my brother said that Shi Wengong was truly taught by Master Zhou Tong. Not only is his spear skills extremely impressive, but he is also
He is a man who is good at shooting with a bow. If that guy wants to use a bow and arrow, my brother must be extremely careful."
"It's said that people are hurt by hidden arrows. Since I already know what tricks the gang in Zengtou City will play, how can I let them succeed?" Xiao Tang said with a smile, Han Shizhong and Yang Zhi, the two bows and arrows, The equally proficient hero gathered his riding bow and rode his horse to Xiao Tang's side. Han Shizhong raised his head and smiled at Xiao Tang: "Xiao Renxia, I am sure that the two bird monks were sent by Zengtou City. Even if I want to make a trick on you, now I think of myself as bait to lure the enemy, so I'm not afraid of making a mistake?"
Xiao Tang leisurely smiled and said: "Compared with the life-and-death battle with foreign countries at the border and thousands of troops, what is the value of this danger? What's more, now that I have a fierce general like Han Dutou to help me, what should I worry about? "
After hearing this, Han Shizhong just laughed twice and did not reply to Xiao Tang's words. At this moment, the figures of the two monks leading the way had completely disappeared in the dark night. Xiao Tang sent two leaders up I went forward to investigate, but there was still no sign of the two monks.
Is it finally coming? Xiao Tang snorted coldly, then lowered his voice and ordered the leaders under his command: "Send the order, and the whole army will retreat slowly. When the ambush killers in Zengtou City come out, follow the original plan Act!"
The two thousand horse infantry received Xiao Tang's order, camped step by step according to the original route, and slowly retreated. When they had walked less than a hundred steps, they suddenly heard the sound of golden drums and shouts that shook the sky and the earth! Suddenly, in the dark night, there was light. Countless torches were set up, lighting up half of the night sky!
But before the ambushes from Zengtou City could draw their bows and draw strings, random arrows like locusts were fired at them! It turned out that the archers among the Green Forest troops had also received orders from Xiao Tang, and they were waiting for Zengtou City. When the ambush troops showed up, they aimed at the bright spot and fired random arrows! The Zengtou City ambush troops, who had planned to ambush Xiao Tang and his party by surprise, were shot over two to three hundred people first, and the formation became slightly loose for a while!
Shi Wengong, who was hiding in the dark, was slightly shocked. He secretly asked: How could this group of thieves react so quickly and react in such a short period of time?... Could it be that these bandits had already expected this? Did I deliberately design it to lure them into the trap? How is this possible!
Just as Shi Wengong was frowning and thinking, suddenly a bald head came to his side. That person was one of the two monks who had just led Xiao Tang and his party. The monk hunched over and pointed his hand forward. Shi Wengong said: "Teacher Shi, the one wearing the Haechi mask is the leader of the two mountain bandits!"
Teacher Shi's expression changed, and he hurriedly looked in the direction of Xiao Tang, and thought in his mind: I heard some rumors from Jingdong East Road a few days ago, saying that the group of thieves who control Erlong Mountain and Qingfeng Mountain are big The one who defeated the army was a strongman leader wearing a Haechi mask. There were rumors on the road that that guy was called Quan Yu, but for such an unknown person, why would such famous figures as Huahua Monk Lu Zhishen, Leopard-headed Lin Chong, etc. be willing to serve him? Mainly?
No matter what, as long as he can kill the thief leader named Quan Yu with one arrow, the remaining bandits will be defeated without a fight! Shi Wengong gritted his teeth and took the three-stone sword that he was good at from a servant. Bow. Although there are many capable men and strangers in the world who can pull such a powerful bow, Shi Wengong asked himself that there are only a few who can make these three stone bows work as well as he does.
Most of the people in the world of Hebei know that Shi Wengong has superb spear skills, but few people know that bow and arrow shooting is also a skill that makes him proud. This is why Shi Wengong asks himself that he has always been better than his fellow disciple Lu Junyi. The reason for this is that although Lu Junyi is praised by people in the world for his skill with a spear and stick, Shi Wengong not only believes that his spear skills are not inferior to Lu Junyi, but also his ability to shoot bows and arrows is far inferior to that of Hebei Jade Qilin. I!
Shi Wengong's eyes flashed with coldness, and he slowly pulled out an arrow cluster with his name engraved on it from the arrow pot. In fact, among the generals with excellent bow and arrow skills, many people were used to engraving their names on arrows. Habit. Shi Wengong also wanted to use this method to kill the extravagant figures in the green forest and at the same time promote one thing to the heroes of the world: Shi Wengong, the blood brave man, can kill powerful people!
The string of the three-stone strong bow made a creaking sound, and suddenly there was a clang. Shi Wen looked at Zhun Xiaotang respectfully, and the arrow broke through the string, and its speed was faster than thunder and lightning!
The confidants and brothers beside him were leading their troops to prepare to defend against the enemy, while Xiao Tang had been holding his breath and concentrating, preparing for the formation. Suddenly his ears moved, and he heard the heart-stopping sound of breaking wind suddenly sweeping over, and the sound of strong wind rushing through him. Ear!
Xiao Tang, who had been prepared for a long time, suddenly realized that he had been overconfident. He hurriedly turned his head to avoid it, but when he heard the loud sound of "噌!", sparks flew everywhere, and sharp arrows were mixed with the force of wind and thunder. After brushing against the fine iron Xiezhi mask worn by Xiao Tang, the violent, teeth-searing metal friction sound made Xiao Tang's eardrums hurt!
"Brother!" Hua Rong exclaimed in surprise at first, and then his sword eyebrows stood upright. He immediately took out the thin bow painted with magpie paintings, and pointed the bow and arrow in the direction of Xiao Tang, preparing to shoot!
Hua Rong is not the only one. Behind him, the Eighteen Cavalry Shooters, as well as the green-faced beast Yang Zhi and Pohan Wuhan Shizhong, two tiger generals, have already put arrow clusters on the strings and pulled the bow strings full!
...The next moment, the string is released and the arrow is fired!
