Chapter 427: Fighting in the Jungle
Cao Tianci never imagined in his dreams that there would be so many Donghu scouts within the control area of the Yan army. When he saw the dozen or so Donghu people in front of him, his first reaction was that he thought he was dazzled. The second reaction is to pull the horse and flee.
With the sound of shouting and sharp arrows whizzing through the air from behind, Cao Tianci confirmed that he was not dreaming, this was indeed the Donghu scouts, but this is still the area controlled by the Yan army, where did these Donghu scouts come from? Those who came out, from Yulin, Liaoning Wei, and Luoxi, have all fallen into the hands of the Yan army?
These are not important anymore, what Cao Tianci thinks now is how to escape with his life, he doesn't think he is the opponent of these scouts. The war horse under his crotch made a humming sound. Cao Tianci bit his lip. These days, he has not had a good rest. If you don't live, you really have no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth.
He raised his eyes and looked around anxiously. Not far to the left, Lushan, a branch of the Panshan Mountains, stood tall. He gritted his teeth and turned to flee to Lushan. After entering the mountain, maybe he still had a glimmer of life.
Just in such a short moment of turning, the distance between the two sides was shortened again. Cao Tianci's whole body was lying on the horse, and his toes kept hitting the horse's belly, pushing the horse to gallop forward. The corners of the horse's mouth had flowed out When the white foam is seen, the limit has been reached.
From time to time, favorable arrows whistled from the top of the head and flew past the ears. Cao Tianci held the crossbow tightly in his hand, but did not turn around and shoot, on top of these galloping horses. He wasn't sure he'd be able to shoot his opponent off his horse, so much so. It's better to keep these few crossbow arrows, and wait until the forest, and then make a fuss.
The war horse suddenly hissed miserably, and took a few steps forward. Cao Tianci was startled, knowing that the war horse must have been hit by an arrow, he no longer hesitated, his body tensed up. The moment the horse fell down, it leaped forward, rolled over a dozen times on the ground, dissipating the huge force, and then jumped up without looking back, rushing towards the dense forest that was already close in front of it. forest.
Duo Duo sound. Several feathered arrows were nailed to the tree pole, but it was a step too late. Seeing the blue clothes disappearing in the forest, more than a dozen Donghu sentry cavalry shouted angrily and rushed over one after another.
The woods are dense, from here. All the way to Lushan, once you enter the forest, you are like a bird like a jungle, trying to catch people from it is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack. But the dozen or so Donghu people obviously did not give up and divided into two groups. A group of horses galloped away, but there were still five or six people left. They jumped off their horses, drew out their scimitars, and rushed into the woods.
The moon in the sky was half-curved, passed through the woods, and fell on the ground, forming one after another, round or missing, mottled shadows. Cao Tianci curled up in a tree hole, took out a piece of dried meat from his arms, chewed and swallowed it three or two times Go eat it, the water was placed beside the saddle, and now it is gone, but eating a few pieces of dried meat made his mouth dry even more. He knew that he didn't have much time to rest, and those bastard Donghu guards simply regarded him as prey.
Started a game of hunting and anti-hunting with him, and I have been with him for a whole half a day.
If you don't kill them, you can't get out at all. Half-closed his eyes, Cao Tianci quickly figured out how to get out. The remaining six scouts are very experienced and keep an extremely appropriate distance from each other. No matter which one he attacks, he will fall into their trap next. Surrounded.
What's even more annoying is that among these few people, there must be one who is very good at tracking. No matter what method he thinks of to confuse his opponent, it won't take long for them to return to the right path and follow him relentlessly.
You must kill them, or you will die. Cao Tianci let out a long breath. The opponent has enough supplies, so it doesn't matter if he plays with him for two more days, but he can't do it anymore. The longer it takes, his physical strength and energy will decline. People die for knives, but I die for fish.
It doesn't matter if I die, but I still have a secret letter written by Jiang Changshi to the general. Judging by Jiang Changshi's solemn expression, the content of this letter is probably not trivial, and the presence of Donghu people here is not a good omen. There shouldn't be Donghu sentry cavalry of this size here, and judging from their appearance, they are not defeated skirmishers at all, but appear in an organized and large scale. When chasing themselves, they are also calm and unhurried. There is only one possibility.
Cao Tianci was sweating profusely in an instant, his conjecture scared himself too.
There is a large Donghu army nearby.
how so? This is the rear of the Yan army. To the north is Zhenyuan under the control of the Zhengdong Army, and to the south is the Panshan Fortress. No matter which of these two places, there is a large amount of military supplies. If a large number of Donghu people appear in this place, then they No matter which direction you go, it will cut off your army's retreat and cut off your own army's supplies.
How could such a situation arise? Cao Tianci's hands trembled slightly, no, he had to figure out the situation, otherwise, the Zhengdong Army would suffer a lot.
Drilling out of the tree hole, Cao Tianci disappeared into the bushes as silently as a cat.
Half an hour later, Cao Tianci lay down among the grass followers. Opposite him, a Donghu man appeared cautiously with his waist down. On his left and right, two other Donghu men protected his left and right wings. One step closer to where Cao Tianci was hiding.
Cao Tianci jumped out suddenly and flew backwards.
"Catch him!" The leading Donghu man was overjoyed and chased after him. Just after taking a few steps, there was a bang, and his foot was trampled, and he fell down. It was a trap that hunters used to catch large game.
A Donghu man fell into a trap, but Cao Tianci ran forward without looking back. Sure enough, not long after running forward, several other Donghu men appeared around him and surrounded him. A little entanglement, at this time has fallen into the siege of the opponent.
A quarter of an hour later, Cao Tianci shook off three tails and came back around again. Several Donghu people expected him to flee away, but they never expected that he would return to the place where he set the trap.
The things that Feng Fayong taught him are really useful, Cao Tianci thought in his heart, but this guy is not a good person, and he made a fool of himself in Fufeng, but unfortunately he didn't catch him in the end. Like a fox, after stalking him, he will run away without a trace. Next time he meets him, he will definitely be tied up and beaten hard.
Gently pushed aside the grass, there was a humming sound coming from the front, two Donghu people were struggling to get out the unlucky guy who fell into the pit, this guy was just as good as his life, but there was a chipper stuck in the pit Pointed stakes.
Cao Tianci picked up the crossbow, at this distance, even with his eyes closed, he could still hit the opponent, thanks to the Donghu man who cried out in pain, it was his screams that covered up his movements.
There were two chirps, and the two bullets shot out through the air. The two Donghu people who had just pulled their companions out of the pit were shocked, and half turned around. Then crashed down.
The guy who had just escaped from the pit yelled, Cao Tianci swept over, swung his elbow, and with a bang, the guy fell straight down. Stretch out your feet and kick one of the corpses of the Donghu people into the pit, arrange the remaining two guys, and lie in the middle of them. From this angle, no matter which direction you look at, it is impossible to see it at the first time. Qing, it can only be a vague shadow, but unfortunately there is no time to change into the clothes of this Donghu man, otherwise the clothes will be perfect, but at this time, Cao Tianci can only gamble.
There was a whizzing sound of running not far away, and a Donghu man who ran at the front asked loudly. Cao Tianci held his saber tightly, and stared nervously at the rushing opponent through the gap between the corpses.
Fortunately, these guys opened a certain distance, which gave me the best chance.
"What happened? My God, how did this happen?" The Donghu man who ran at the front ran to these corpses. Everything was as Cao Tianci expected. another person.
With a flash of saber light, the visitor screamed miserably, his legs were chopped off from below his knees, Cao Tianci jumped up, half crouched on the ground, riding a crossbow, the last short arrow whizzed out, The Donghu man who came back for the second shot fell to the ground, threw away his crossbow, turned around, swung his knife, and with a puffing sound, the unlucky ghost with both knees broken was decapitated.
Everything happened in a blink of an eye. When the third Donghu man came back here, Cao Tianci had already stood up, holding the saber in his hand, and looked at him coldly.
Now, one to one.
Without any nonsense, the two of them were red-eyed, and they fought fiercely together in an instant. One-man fighting is what Cao Tianci is good at, and the fighting skills Gao Yuan taught him are most suitable for this kind of fighting. For several years , Cao Tianci has been practicing endlessly and has already become extremely proficient.
After a stick of incense, the battle was over, Cao Tianci gasped for breath, after all, he was still a little younger, and his physical strength was far inferior to that of his opponent. If it wasn't for the superb martial arts taught by the general, he would definitely not be the opponent of the big man in front of him If so, he was cut several times on his body.
In Fufeng City, the benefits of those sandbag formations were manifested at this time. At the moment when the steel knife reached his body, he could always turn around in time, allowing the opponent's knife to change from chopping to slashing, although injuries could not be avoided , but exchanging an injury for a life can make a lot of money.
The opponent was completely dead, his eyes were wide open, Cao Tianci gave a mouthful, walked to the entrance of the trap, and kicked the guy who fell into the trap first.
The guy trembled, and slowly opened his eyes, Cao Tianci smiled and squatted down.
