Chapter 39 Backlash!(1/2)

Wu Xi has been herding herds since he was a child, roping sheep, roping cattle, and roping horses is what he relies on to make a living, and he has always been a very persistent person, and tolerance is his nature.

So, after Wu Xi waited for half an hour, he found a prey. Suddenly a lasso flew out of the darkness, and wrapped around the neck of an Eastern Xia cavalryman like a ghost. Before he could turn around,

When God came, Wu Xi had already stabbed a dagger on the hip of the horse in front of him. The horse immediately started to run wildly in pain, and the end of the lasso was tied to its saddle, steep

After tightening, the Dongxia cavalry didn't even let out a scream. He flew up in the clouds and mist like a kite, and was dragged into the darkness.

Wu Xi, on the other hand, got on another horse and followed the horse with the lasso on it galloping into the darkness. Only then did the companion of the Dongxia Army react, cursed, and galloped away.

They pursued them, but unfortunately the sophisticated weapons and armor they wore became a huge burden on the horses. After chasing them for several dozen feet, they lost their bearings at all.

Wu Xi probably waited for the horse to run five or six miles, and confirmed that there were no pursuers behind him, so he whistled, and the horse that was running wildly in pain also slowed down. Wu Xi comforted the horse, and then exposed

With a happy and innocent smile, he took out the knife from his waist and cut off the head of the unlucky guy who was trapped...

During this cruel process, Wu Xi did not encounter any resistance or danger, because although this military man looked ferocious and powerful, his neck bones were as fragile as everyone else's.

In the process of being suddenly tightened by the noose, even if the soldier was ferocious enough to kill a tiger or leopard, his fragile neck bones would deform, break, and die in an instant.

Wuxi looked at this bloody head. His heart was filled with a feeling of happiness, because if such a head was rewarded based on merit, Nohana would get a quarter of her dowry, and the armored steel sword on this soldier's body would be worth at least

There are twenty sheep.

With only three more heads, Nohana can move into her own felt bag, do housework for her baby and make butter tea every day! How exciting it is to have hot vegetables and rice when she comes back from grazing.

With such longing, Wu Xi dived into the darkness, looking for his own fighting opportunity again.

Many times, the turning point on the battlefield is actually achieved by a small thing. It is not until people look back on these things that they burst into laughter and realize that such an ordinary little thing can have such a far-reaching effect!

At this time, neither Lin Fengjin nor Li Minghua expected that the turning point of the entire battle would actually be in the hands of a poor little shepherd slave like Wu Xi!

***

Wu Xi gasped in the darkness, her heart burning, but her hands covered with cracks were surprisingly stable.

He once again set his sights on a prey.

This prey looks very brave, and he is also wearing a silver-white armor. He only leads five people, but he is mainly against the enemy. He suppresses nearly 20 or 30 Sanli tribe members on the battlefield. Where does his frontline go?

The tribesmen of the Sanli tribe were forced to flee in all directions, and the long black knife in the hands of the prey was as agile and agile as a bird spreading its wings, and it took the lives of at least five or six tribesmen! There was no trace of anything at all.

Flaws. To put it bluntly, even a hundred skinny Wu Xi wouldn't be enough to kill such a fierce man.

However, Wu Xi is a very patient person. When he was wandering on the grassland in his early years, he often caught marmots to satisfy his hunger. These clever little animals can stay underground for two or three hours without moving, but Wu Xi did not.

Being able to stay outside their burrow for five whole hours, without eating, drinking, urinating or making a sound, and finally catching them successfully is all about patience.

He followed the prey quietly until he defeated seven or eight teams in a row, until the man was injured and bleeding, and his arm was hit by an arrow. When he returned the knife to its sheath, he repeated it twice because of the violent trembling of his palm.

It wasn't until he took out the water bag, all the muscles in his body relaxed, and drank heavily that he quietly took action.

The feminine lasso fell slowly. Wu Xi's hand was as steady as a stone. The lasso technique honed by hunger and beatings can be said to have almost no deflection. Then Wu Xi stabbed the horse's buttocks,

The movement of turning over on the horse is also done in one go, showing unprecedented stability and coordination!

The silver-armored soldier didn't even say a word. He was pulled up high and glided in the air for a while like a kite. Then he hit the ground hard. Wu Xi seemed to hear his painful cry for half a minute.

, then he tightly grasped the noose around his neck with both hands, but was already dragged away at high speed.

Being dragged to death by a horse is a particularly cruel punishment. The person who is tortured often suffers great pain before death, and the body is even more numerous and missing. The death is so painful that even the bones will be broken!

However, Wu Xi felt that an indescribable huge force was transmitted from the lasso. The lasso seemed to have turned into a giant python that was struggling crazily, trying to escape his control.

But Wu Xi still has confidence, because he is an unusually cautious person, and this noose is related to his happiness in the second half of his life, as well as his life and death, so before setting off this time, he soaked the noose in tung oil again

The lasso is then left to dry. This seemingly inconspicuous thing is actually difficult to cut even with a giant axe. The only nemesis is fire.

The struggle of prey that has just fallen into the trap is equally fierce. Wu Xi has seen similar situations countless times. Unfortunately, it is rare for prey to crawl out of the trap alive in the end.

After being dragged ten feet away by "Little Black", it was obvious that the force coming from the noose had become much weaker.

After being dragged out another ten feet, I could no longer feel any strength at the end of the noose.

In the darkness behind, there were crazy and panicked shouts. Wu Xi couldn't understand Dongxia Manzi's words, but he could also feel the heart-rending pain in their shouts. I believe they have been caught.

Wu Xi, the culprit of this incident, will definitely inflict the most terrible punishment on him.

Therefore, Wu Xi decisively gave up the idea of ​​continuing to hunt tonight. He felt that he seemed to have caught a good prey this time. This guy should be able to defeat two people, right?

With this thought, the cautious Wu Xi added another whip to Xiao Hei's buttocks, quickly aimed at the outside of the battlefield and galloped away. He still felt a little pity for the silver armor on his prey.

.Be sure not to scratch it on the ground or lose it! Otherwise, if you can exchange it for thirty sheep, you will have to be bargained down to twenty-five sheep...

But what the heck, no matter how hard you bargain in Sanlibu, there is a bottom line. It is absolutely impossible for something worth ten sheep to be sold for the price of one sheep. Even the lowest-status shepherd slaves don’t have to worry about themselves.

If you are cheated in a transaction, you will only suffer a small loss at most.

After thinking wildly in his mind for a while, Wu Xi felt that it was almost done and that he was already out of the battlefield. No matter how powerful the prey hung on the noose was, being dragged around the neck for more than ten miles, it was like an ox that had been drained of blood.

, I only have the strength to kick my legs and stare.

Wu Xi dismounted, pulled out the dagger and stepped forward, slitting the neck of the prey without any effort. It felt like when slaughtering a sheep, he stabbed it into the sheep's heart with a single stroke...

The blood spurted from the artery splashed on Wu Xi's face. The dark, thin and miserable young man wiped it on his face nonchalantly and smiled innocently:

"You are really energetic. But the Immortal God is calling you."

***

An hour later, Lin Fengjin received the latest battle report and couldn't help being surprised:

"What?? Eight hundred people have been lost so far?"

Fang Ming, who was next to him, suddenly frowned:

"How could this happen? Master, I think we have fallen into the trap of the old thief. Let's send a signal to pull people back. Although Wu Zuocheng can be said to be impregnable, there is no need to waste human lives in vain."

The spy half-knelt on the ground and said:

"I don't know why, but those Dongxia people suddenly blew their horns a few times, and then many of the Dongxia barbarians became very vicious. It was completely a way of killing each other. Our brothers didn't expect this, and many people also

He was poisoned."

At this time, someone suddenly rushed in and said loudly:

"General, Young Master, there is something strange happening in the Eastern Xia people! Please go up to the tower and watch!"

At this time, Lin Fengjin was even more confused, and immediately went to the top of the city. He had the ability of night vision, and sure enough he saw the sergeants of the Eastern Xia Army gathering, and then they gathered towards the city gate, and then,

These soldiers who had gathered hastily rushed over in such a chaotic manner carrying seven or eight ladders!

Immediately, the horns at the top of Wuzuo City also began to blow, and they entered a state of first-level alert. Then they saw the thousands of Dongxia troops gathered hastily, and they hit Wu Zuocheng's line as violently as a big wave.

An indescribable military force was approaching, blowing in the face like a strong wind of magnitude 13, almost suffocating people and making it difficult to breathe.

"This, is this a mourning soldier?" Fang Ming, who had experienced many battles, said in a deep voice.

"Something big must have happened!! Send my personal guards! This is a hard battle!!"

Although the Dongxia Army's offensive was as powerful and suffocating as a giant wave, Wu Zuocheng, which Lin Fengjin had worked so hard to manage, was like a rock. No matter how powerful the giant wave hit it, it would only end in crushing!

Since these Dongxia troops were coming in force and were all elite, Lin Fengjin also showed his trump card, which was to simply throw one or two hundred barrels of kerosene under the city wall, and then set it on fire -----

-If you feel like it, just brave the fire and set up a ladder for me to rush up!

If you don’t want to rush, then just get shot below. Anyway, the people in Sanlibu have been living quite well in the past two or three years. People with night blindness are relatively rare even among the herdsmen. They can be used as training for the archers on the city wall.

Practice blind archery at night.

You don’t want to be shot, do you? Then just keep retreating!

Lin Fengjin knew very well that this kind of temporarily created mourning situation was just a moment of emotional outburst and dizziness. Once he calmed down and the resentment in his heart dissipated, he would naturally act calmly. It was as if

Just like those who can't think of committing suicide for a while, as long as they are saved, 99% of them will not die again...

So when he poured hundreds of barrels of kerosene down, it seemed like he was burning money, and it would delay it for most of an hour at most. But in fact, he cleverly suppressed the opponent's mourning spirit.

Sure enough, after the fire under the city wall was extinguished, the number of people who rushed to attack again was only a quarter of the number before. The number of these few thousand people could be said to be more than the number of people defending the city.

Then why bother to attack?

When they got to the back, Lin Fengjin actually gave a special warning, saying that he would let some of the people come up, and then capture them alive to ask what happened.

Soon, the identities of the attacking group were determined. They were either Li Minghua's personal soldiers or his direct troops. Then Lin Fengjin received exciting news, and this news could perfectly explain last night's incident.

What the hell is going on?

On that day, Dongxia Kingdom sent troops to choose Li Minghua as its coach. The reason was that he was a veteran who had experienced hundreds of battles. He was cautious and experienced.

But everything in the world has pros and cons,

Since veterans have so many advantages, they must have corresponding shortcomings, such as lack of flexibility in using troops, lack of energy, poor physical strength, or... great health risks.

.

Since the heavy rain that day, Li Minghua was also drenched. As the commander of the first army, he had a lot of things to do. He didn't fall ill even though he only slept two or three hours a day. It was really a miracle.

to describe it.

In the past few days, Wu Zuocheng's persistent night attacks have made Li Minghua do everything. The old man already had insomnia, so he relied on hot towels on his face to survive until now, and a piece of bad news became the last step to defeat him.

Root straw.

The sad news is that his nephew, Li Song, captain of the Guards Corps, died in battle!
To be continued...
