Raise your shield!

Jiang Chen raised his eyes and looked at the blood-red arrow that struck in mid-air. He immediately tightened his grip on the back of the shield and protected his upper body and head with the rattan shield.

but……

If a mere rattan shield could prevent the blood-venged arrows of the Yang clan, which ranked second among the five supreme archery skills, then the Yang clan, who was famous for his mounted archery in the Western Regions, would have been expelled from Loulan a long time ago.

Buzz!

The arrow of blood revenge shines with a sad and crazy bloody light!

Facing an enemy holding a shield, it let out an excited and bloodthirsty cry, and then aimed at the rattan shield and stabbed down fiercely!

There was no loud noise or sparks. The moment the blood-venged arrow came into contact with the rattan shield, it directly penetrated the thick wooden structure!

Next second!

It excitedly bumped into Jiang Chen's arm, trying to draw fresh flesh and blood from it!

This is the magic of the arrow of blood feud!

It can restore kinetic energy by sucking the enemy's flesh and blood, and then continue to target the next flesh-and-blood enemy. Every time Yang Yunlang uses this arrow, he can often kill several Qingzhou soldiers in a short period of time, which is extremely cruel!

However,

The next moment,

boom!

The sound of gold and iron clashing!

The moment the arrow of blood revenge, which had been extremely fast and ferocious just now, hit Jiang Chen's arm, it seemed as if it had hit an extremely hard rock. It only penetrated half an inch and almost lost all its kinetic energy.

"This defense is really powerful!"

The moment Jiang Chen was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the huge energy and blood from Yang Yunlang contained in the Blood Vengeance Arrow suddenly exploded at this moment, giving the arrow a new driving force!

Buzz!

The blood-red arrow rotates like an electric drill, going deep and advancing!

Jiang Chen's eyes were cracked, and he felt a heartbreaking pain in his arm. He couldn't help but cry out in pain: "Ahhhhhhh!"

Look closely.

I saw the arrow of blood hatred flashing with a fiery red light. It actually penetrated into the rock-hard arm, penetrated the bones, and broke out of the arm. After absorbing a little flesh and blood, it shot towards Jiang at an extremely fast speed.

Chen flew away from his chest.

pity.

The skin on the chest is as solid as a mountain, but it is three points harder than that on the arms.

Even if the arrow of blood revenge tried its best, it only left a scratch on Jiang Chen's chest and fell to the ground with a cry.

It penetrated the rattan shield one after another, and the skin and bones of the two arms. It was already at the end of its power. How could it penetrate the last solid line of defense with only a little flesh and blood in the arm?

"Book of Han·Biography of Han Anguo" says, "At the end of a strong crossbow, it cannot enter Lu Zhen; when it is weak against the wind, it cannot raise feathers."

Even if a sharp arrow shot from a strong bow reaches an extremely far place, when its power is exhausted, even the thin Lu silk cannot penetrate it;

Even if the violent wind blows over, it will be unable to blow even the lightest feathers with the last trace of power left.

Jiang Chen turned pale and fell to his knees, but quickly stood up again. He took the rattan shield with his still healthy left hand and stared at Yang Yunlang, who was fleeing hundreds of meters away. His body was still as stable as Mount Tai.

All the people showed half-surprised and half-joyed expressions.

They thought that Jiang Chen would definitely die. After all, he was the leader of thousands of black-robed cavalry. Killing Qingzhou soldiers was like killing chickens and dogs.

But who would have thought that a mere civilian could withstand a blow from an enemy general without being killed? What an honor this is?

When they return to the village to farm in the future, this experience of fighting side by side with Jiang Chen can even become their bragging rights to the villagers.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"How could he still be alive after receiving an arrow from me?"

As the arrow master, Yang Yunlang immediately noticed that the blood feud arrow had successfully hit, but before he could be happy, he felt angrily that the blood feud arrow he shot with his own hands failed to kill even an unknown soldier.

What a shame?

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but want to cum again.

pity.

How could the dignified grain officer Zhang Longxiang give him a second chance?

Nearly eight hundred Qingzhou soldiers looked like wolves and tigers, staring greedily at the black-robed cavalry whose morale was greatly depleted. If Yang Yunlang delayed his second arrow, more cavalry would surely die!

What's even worse is,

The hundreds of cavalrymen who set fire to the food in the east were also harassed by Qingzhou's defeated troops.

Not only will it not be able to help, it is even very likely that once they go to the rescue, the entire army will fall into a quagmire and be surrounded and killed by the Qingzhou Corps.

"hateful!"

"One day, I will personally cut off the heads of Zhang Longxiang and that unknown person!"

Yang Yunlang cursed angrily and made a decisive decision, giving up the rescue to the east, and quickly returned to Loulan with the remaining 350 or 60 cavalrymen.

See the situation.

All the people cheered in unison:

"We win, we win!"

And those Qingzhou soldiers who were defeated first and then won, also showed tired and bitter smiles.

"Hahahaha, sorry for not sending me far!"

Looking at the retreating figure of the black-robed cavalry, Jiang Chen's mind immediately relaxed, and his body collapsed at the moment when tension turned to relaxation.

All the limbs and bones are filled with waves of weakness that go deep into the bone marrow...

Although the arrow of blood revenge did not cause fatal damage, it still swallowed a large amount of blood, flesh and blood. As for the destiny of "defending", its magic also needs to be stimulated by consuming energy and blood. The ability to sustain it to this moment is entirely due to Jiang Chen's strong willpower.

result.

On the other side, the cavalrymen from the east who set fire to their food supplies were all killed by the swords of the Qingzhou soldiers.

Zhang Longxiang ordered his soldiers to clean the battlefield and extinguish the flames of the grain carts. He led a grain station officer and walked to Jiang Chen with interest and said with a smile:

"I didn't expect that the person who did such a great thing was actually just a civilian."

Jiang Chen coughed twice and responded weakly:

"Poor people only have one life. It's rare that there is an opportunity with low risks and high returns. If you can win a career, how can you just watch it slip away?"

With some appreciation in Zhang Longxiang's eyes, a trace of Qi and blood casually popped out and attached to Jiang Chen's arm, temporarily stabilizing his injury, and then asked:

"The so-called advancement level means that you think you can become a member of the Qingzhou soldiers with this meritorious service? Do you really want to become a Qingzhou soldier?"

Jiang Chen nodded and recalled with a hint of self-deprecation:

"Before this battle, the Qingzhou soldiers only had about twenty casualties, but the civilians died of illness, exhaustion, and heat... More than eight thousand people fell deep in the vast Gobi desert and were hastily buried."

"Qingzhou soldiers are valuable chess pieces, and we civilians are just discarded pieces that can be discarded at any time."

Listen to this.

Zhang Longxiang was silent for a long time, and finally sighed:

"Yes, you are right. The tattoos on the civil servants are birds, and the tattoos on the military officers are beasts. Who is not dressed like a beast inside and outside the court? They are just treating the conscripts as consumables."

Having said this, Zhang Longxiang gradually lost interest in chatting, shook his head, and got to the main topic of the day:

"Father Jiang Chen, with your achievements today, I can give you two choices."

Jiang Chen's heart suddenly tightened, and he ordered Gongsun Hu to let go of him, struggling to stand independently in front of Zhang Longxiang. He weakly raised his head, stared at the tall general who was nearly nine feet tall, and said in a deep voice:

"Please tell me."

Zhang Longxiang raised his first finger and said with a smile:

"First, since you claim to be a personal soldier of the school captain, I also intend to take you into my pocket. You can become a formal member of the Qingzhou soldiers without any conditions. However, your body's energy and blood are too weak, and you need a number of blood-replenishing grass fruits.

10. Only with a certain amount of healing elixir can you have the strength to withstand the test of the Qingyang Ceremony. The cost is quite high. With your current achievements, I am afraid it is far from enough.

Therefore, I hope that you will join my army, follow me and make plans. Within three months at most, I will give you elixirs to heal your injuries, herbs and fruits to strengthen your body, and Qingzhou soldiers to become extraordinary and become saints. How about that?

"

Jiang Chen's heart trembled slightly.

Three months?

The day lilies are cold.

In this dangerous battle to conquer the Western Region, dragging your body with pain for three months, I am afraid that the chance of survival is not as good as that of a civilian...

Jiang Chen shook his head.

Zhang Longxiang had no expression on his face and raised his second finger:

"Then, you can also consider the second option."

"My Zhang family is the number one medical family in Qingzhou. We have countless secret medicines. We can also enjoy great discounts in the military. You can also use your military service to exchange for a low-grade secret healing medicine, which will restore your health within three days.

By then.

In full strength, he will participate in the selection of Qingzhou soldiers in the near future.

About two or three days later, the Expeditionary Army will select a group of outstanding talents from among the civilians and promote them to Qingzhou soldiers.

But there is one thing I must remind you. According to my observation, your martial arts skills and energy and blood may not meet the minimum standards of Qingzhou soldiers."

The grain official on the side had a strange look on his face, and he couldn't help but wonder:
