Chapter 1531 Shots

At this time, the sound of a crucifixion sounded in people's ears, and dozens of powerful arrows flew out of the courtyard almost instantly. Due to the obstruction of the courtyard wall, most of the arrows were shot out, and some Jurchens who were secretly crawling on high places shot heavy arrows out.

These arrows were shot very accurately, and even the landing points were shot out were quite accurate. In the blink of an eye, more than five operation team members were shot to the ground, and a considerable number of team members were injured.

It is a shooting overturn, a heavy arrow shot flat, with great force. The distance is too close, resulting in the force and accurate head beyond people's imagination. This kind of arrow is a heavy arrow commonly used by the Jurchens, and the shaft is much heavier than the light arrow. The tip of the arrow is similar to a small shovel, which is much heavier than an ordinary arrow. With a strong bow and strong shooting, the force is far from comparable to an ordinary light arrow.

Although there was a mail on his body, several people were shot in the vital area of ​​the face or throat and died almost instantly.

Chen Yan turned around and looked at the dead partner beside him. The entire face seemed to have been lifted up by force, his facial features and skin were removed, his whole face was flattened, and the arrow shaft was still stuck above his face, trembling constantly.

The person who was shot in the critical moment died instantly, which made many members of the operation team suddenly become alert. They suddenly stood up and retreated, and at the same time tried to lower their heads and look for defensive corners. Fortunately, there were houses around the courtyard, and nearly a hundred people quickly found many corners that could cover themselves.

Most of the oil tanks were not thrown in, and a few were thrown into the yard, making an explosion and a fire lit up at the same time. Unfortunately, the yard was covered with stone floors, and the yard walls were also made of bricks and stones, so the threat caused by the fire tank was quite small.

In the firelight, the members of the operation team finally saw the target opposite. Dozens of black shadows stood in the firelight, some on high places, some in the courtyard, and some under the eaves of the building corridors.

"Is this Gbushxian?" Chen Yan couldn't help blurting out.

The Jurchen soldiers in the courtyard are indeed worthy of being a model of strong soldiers. They seem quite calm under such a surprise attack and fire. They are neither angry nor panic. A figure stands like a wooden stake, and they are completely determined.

The operation team has beheading missions for each department, assassination mission.

For example, the task of assassinating Dorji, the eldest son of Xietukhan of the Three Khans in Mobei was the work of the operation team of the Military Intelligence Department. This is a very famous battle example and was later rumored to be a talk within the Military Intelligence Department.

There are also some assassinations of uncooperative officials in the Ming Dynasty and assassinations of some disobedient and powerful households, which are the responsibility of the military intelligence department's operations personnel.

Hutchison's convoy travels smoothly, can't it just give away money?

This is what it takes to have to do with relationships, holding silver in the left hand and a stick in the right hand.

Those officials and wealthy gentry households all understood this truth. They had to get money for cooperation with Hutchison. Although they might not have been more blackmailed than they did on their own, Hutchison always gave money.

As long as everyone cooperates, there will be a steady stream of money.

But if you are determined to suck blood from Hu Ji and do not know the mercy, there will always be someone who is inexplicably destroyed by a group of robbers who have entered the house.

People know this assassination well and the means are clever and cannot be found out. Local officials dare not check it out in detail.

Behind Hutchison's strong financial resources are the stronger merchant troops. With this support, even the emperor must use gentle means to comfort Hutchison. No local officials feel that their heads are more important than the court's stability and stability of the border.

It is this way that the Hutchison convoy only travels freely after it is marked with flags, and can charge a large amount of insurance premiums from the north to the border of the Yangtze River.

The members of the operation team were able to kill the Beilu and the Ming generals Needen and the guards, and they also had a lot of good knowledge, but no matter which side of the enemy, they could not compare with the Gbush wise men in front of them.

Several Gebushxians suddenly started to move, and their movements were really fast and as fast as lightning. They continuously ignited their bows and shot them flatly, and several heavy arrows shot out like flying. Almost as they saw their movements, the arrows were already shot. The aim was completed in just one or two seconds. The entire movement and archery were just a few breaths. All the movements were extremely fast and beautiful.

The overall movement and the action of shooting with the bow are so beautiful, and the strength and speed are perfectly combined.

Zhang Han kept muttering that the Jurchens had a great fortune, but luck may be given by God. To achieve this luck, you still have to have this strength.

These Gebushxians in front of them are all elites of the two yellow flags. The two yellow flags are the two flags with the most elite soldiers among the Eight Banners, and Gebushxian is one of the best.

They have richer combat skills than white armor, and their fighting will and equipment are better. Everyone can run freely with dozens of kilograms of iron armor, can calmly ride horses and run on various terrains, and can skillfully use any weapon, of course, besides firearms.

The movements of these people are full of coordination between strength and beauty, and they do not need to deliberately aim at the archery. At least twenty years of experience make each movement as natural as breathing, and it does not take too long to determine the target. It is determined based on distance, bow power, and wind power. Even a thin hare can hit every shot, let alone a person or a war horse with relatively large bodies.

These Gebushxian, white armor, and vests combined are less than 30,000. These warriors who have lived for the rest of their lives have become the core force of the Eight Banners of the Jurchens and are also the core main force of the Ming army that killed at least 300,000 in several wars.

On average, each of them had dozens or even hundreds of lives of Han people, not only the Ming army, but also the Han civilians everywhere.

During this round of short shooting, several more operation team members were shot. Fortunately, they hid most of the key points, and they were only shot in arrows. The mail or iron armor blocked most of the arrow damage, causing them to suffer no heavy damage.

There were still some shouts of killing outside, which were shouts from the remaining outer guards who dared not run away. In addition to showing their existence, they also hoped that reinforcements from nearby could arrive as soon as possible.

At the end of August, Liaodong can be said to be the end of summer because the daytime temperature is still above twenty degrees. But it can also be said to be late autumn because the coldest time at night is only a few degrees. The north wind may suddenly come overnight, and then winter will follow.

Today is the day when the north wind arrives.

Amid the intense shouting, the weather suddenly turned cold, followed by a strong wind, and the north wind whistled, and the temperature dropped sharply from about ten degrees. Amid the howling wind, all the people wearing robes were trembling by the wind. After all, in such weather, they should have been wrapped in bed and sleeping.

Chen Yan was sweating profusely, and quickly evaporated without a trace in the cold wind. Then his whole body was cold, and an unspeakable chill swept over.

At this time, Chen Yan felt that he had ignored Cao Zhenyan's warning and was a little too confident.

The people in the operation team should have the same feeling. In recent years, they have been in the Ming Dynasty with the Beilu. They only transferred a lot of people to the army last year, but most of them were familiar with the situation with people from Dongjiang. At most, they were poisoning or receiving the fleeing Han people. There were very few actions in the Jurchen territory, and very few were assassination operations.

Only now did they realize that they really changed their opponents. The enemy in front of them was extremely vicious, and their personal tactics and group response were quite high. Although there were less than 60 people, they were divided into several levels and quickly used the terrain to counterattack. Wherever Chen Yan's eyes reached, there were more than a dozen Ge Bushxian holding sword cards in his hand and were very close to the gate. It seemed that he was very likely to want to fight a short close-range counterattack and fight hand-to-hand combat with the members of the operation team.

Seeing these performances of Ge Bushxian, Chen Yan, who was originally quite confident in his teammates' skills, couldn't help but hesitate and hesitate at this time.

Doubt is not a good thing, just like a poisonous snake constantly swallowing his heart. Chen Yan did not let his emotions spread, but instead made several firm hand gestures through the moonlight and fire.

Having reached this point, the old slave was obviously in the courtyard house. Thinking about the blood of the old Jurchen man, his life in his hands exceeded the highest achievement that all butchers in China have ever achieved... The so-called war god Bai Qi killed hundreds of thousands of people, and Ran Min only killed less than one million Hu. The Five Barbarians invaded China, the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, including the butchers from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the combined achievements were not as great as Nurhaci.

Genghis Khan must have killed more people than Nurhaci, but Genghis Khan did not enter China when he was alive. The slaughter of 200 to 30 million Han people in northern China and Sichuan Han people was accomplished in fifty years. In Nurhaci's hands, it took less than ten years to reduce the population of Liaodong by more than five million. Even if there were North Korea and Liaoxi, there were less than one million fleeing Han people in Pidao, North Korea and western Liaoning. In other words, in less than ten years, the Tianming Khan, who led a small tribe of 60,000 people, completed the great cause that all butchers had not been able to accomplish before, and directly or indirectly killed about five million Han people in Liaodong.

Such a butcher is just a few dozen steps away. Could it be that he just gave up because of his strong guard?

The answer is of course the opposite. Chen Yan had no intention of giving up. Under his hand-in-hand command, several strong men rushed forward.

Several team members holding shields rushed forward together. Sure enough, when they were moving together, several heavy arrows had already landed and shot on the shield with a very accurate sound, making a loud tick sound.

A team member burst into cold sweat and whispered: "Dog Donglu, the archery is much more cruel than the Beilu."

"High strength!" Another old team member hiding in the corner of the wall loading bullets said in a deep voice: "In fact, the Beilu are also accurate, but their bows are soft and weak, which is the biggest difference between the two sides."

The rest of the people nodded. If the Beilu were in the opposite room, they would have rushed forward to fire the muskets. With the infantry guns, they could not raise their heads. With the mail on their bodies, more than 90% of the Beilu's bows and arrows were not threatened and would not have any worries about their lives.

The arches of the Donglu may not be much stronger than those of the Beilu. One of the two sides is a fishing and hunting nation and the other is a nomadic nation. They both start to shoot arrows when they know how to walk. Archery is not a combat skill but a survival instinct. It is not a high or low in nature. However, the archery force of the Beilu is too weak, which is almost twice the difference between the arches of the Later Jin Dynasty.

On the grassland, it is not unreasonable for the people of the Shang regiment to regard bows and arrows as toys, but in Liaodong, bows and arrows are unforgettable tools for killing.
