Chapter 22 The Legend of the Assassin
When night fell, Li Yingxing put down the brass eagle eye in his hand.
Although Yun Qin's equipment derived from Dean Zhang can increase a person's field of vision several times, and the precision of the crystal lenses polished by Yun Qin's master craftsman is enough to amaze people in the world Lin Xi is familiar with, this kind of equipment is only
Things made of brass and lenses naturally do not have high-tech night vision functions. In the dark night, especially in the dark night without any moonlight, it will not play any role.
After putting away the useless brass eagle eye, Li Yingxing stretched out his left hand and made a few gestures silently. Several school officers repeated such gestures, and the team behind him continued to follow him and began to move from the
He took out the food from his backpack and started chewing and swallowing silently.
This is a Yunqin nomadic army of 400 people. Everyone, including Nomadic Lieutenant Li Yingxing, is wearing Yunqin's standard black leather armor. Because the war is tense at this time, like other teams on the front line, this
The equipment of this nomadic army is also better than before. Every sergeant in the team is equipped with an arm crossbow that can shoot ten crossbow arrows at once. Half of the sergeants carry black stone bows, and they are all equipped with small throwing nets.
This kind of throwing net is different from the large steel net specially designed for practitioners. It is made of special twine and is very light. When it is not unfolded, it is only a ball the size of a fist. After being popped out with a bow, it will spread into two pieces.
A square meter can be shaken out in an instant. Many sheets are mixed with steel needles, which can also tie up many of the opponent's sergeants. Especially when facing the cavalry, it can make the cavalry charging at high speed instantly knock them off their feet.
Li Yingxing is only in his forties, but he already has nearly twenty years of experience in the frontier army. When marching in the dark night, he doesn't seem to have to worry about getting lost or missing his direction. Occasionally, he looks up at the stars, which only makes people think
He was bored in the silent march, just looking at the stars.
The Yunqin army is very good at and likes night fighting.
Because when Dean Zhang led the Yunqin army to engage in some battles with practitioners fifty years ago, he often said that since God gave us a pair of black eyes, it is for us to use them to find light in the dark night. Since
The night is something God has given us to hide our presence, so why don’t we make good use of it? Since we can save a lot of things in the dark, why not act in the dark?
Dean Zhang often acted in the dark, such as beheading the powerful Xiyi men in one night, and burning the thirteen granaries of the Nanmo Kingdom army in one night during the Battle of Biluoling.
Therefore, most of the weapons of the Yunqin army were deliberately made black without any reflection in the dark night.
So now that darkness has fallen, Li Yingxing has no idea of garrisoning troops to rest, but wants to take advantage of the darkness to complete this insertion as soon as possible.
A wolf howled in the distant forest. Li Yingxing frowned and looked in the direction of the howl. His pupils rapidly expanded and contracted, and his left hand quickly rose.
A black shadow appeared silently in the darkness ahead, as if floating from the howling wolf.
Li Yingxing knew that this was definitely not someone from his own army, but within the next breath, he did not immediately issue a military order.
Because the moment this black shadow emerged from the darkness, it also stretched out its hand and made a gesture.
This gesture represents one's own people in the Yunqin Army.
Of course, in the current war, in such a place, such a gesture with no secrets is not enough to prove that the other party must be one of our own, but at this moment, the other party is just a person, and he appears on his own initiative, which is enough for Li Yingxing to maintain enough
He remained calm and did not issue any drastic military orders.
The other party was also clearly aware of the vigilance and concerns of this Yunqin army. After making a gesture, he slowly stretched out his hands. This was an expression of not wanting to use any weapons, and then continued to move forward.
At this moment, the distance between the two sides was less than 30 steps. After the man took a few steps forward, Li Yingxing could see clearly that he was an archer wearing grass-colored cloth, carrying a rather huge photo on his back.
The long bow of the long bow was also painted in grass green, with an exquisite mask embroidered with plum blossoms on its face. In the night, the eyes looked particularly bright.
Although there was no obvious hostility in the other party's eyes, the overly huge bow on the other party clearly showed the fact that the other party was a practitioner, so the vigilance in Li Yingxing's heart did not weaken at all. "Who are you?" he said in a very low voice.
, asked quickly, and made a gesture to ask the other party to stop.
And the moment he made this gesture, the other party also actively stopped.
"Your whereabouts have been discovered by Da Mang's army."
The archer wearing an exquisite mask did not answer Li Yingxing's question, but simply said: "At this moment, three armies have already surrounded you... Your only chance to break out is here." He looked at Li Yingxing and the army behind Li Yingxing who were as silent as one person.
, stretched out his hand towards the front on the left, "I will try to distract and distract the big army first, and then you will protrude from there at full speed."
The sudden appearance of the archer's words caused Li Yingxing and the dozens of sergeants behind him, Yun Qin, who heard his subtle voice to suddenly pause in their breaths. With their minds shocked, Li Yingxing's eyes involuntarily fell on this practitioner.
Archer's hand.
At this moment, Li Yingxing saw that the practitioner's hands seemed a little pale, but they looked extremely soft, making them appear to be extremely dexterous. However, within the softness and dexterity, there seemed to be some kind of power that could explode at any time.
.
"Give me a reason to trust you."
Li Yingxing did not continue to ask about the origin of the person in front of him, but asked immediately.
"There is no need for a reason, because the distance is not far away. I will be there soon. You will soon know what kind of army the other party is. You will naturally be able to make a correct judgment by then."
The archer glanced at Li Yingxing, and when he said these words, he turned around and walked into the darkness again.
Li Yingxing and the first few dozen sergeants who heard the archer's voice clearly shook their bodies at the same time. "Are you a Yunqin soldier?" Li Yingxing took a deep breath and asked softly.
"It doesn't count." The archer did not turn around, "I am from Yunqin."
"Are you just a ranger?" The other party's answer was extremely simple, but Li Yingxing's mood was inexplicably shaken. He hesitated slightly, then took a few steps forward, "How can I help you?"
The archer's back paused in the darkness, "I know you can't reveal the purpose of your march, but if you can, tell me where you know of nearby places where there are traces of Da Mang army activities."
"There are definite activities of the Mang Army near Xialuo Town, more than a hundred miles southwest." Li Yingxing whispered.
When his words disappeared, the figures of the archers in front had all disappeared into the darkness.
…
…
Lu Denggao led 1,500 Damang Qingqi, waiting expectantly and nervously in an uncultivated low-lying area.
All the horses in this Da Mang cavalry army have hooves wrapped in thick cotton wool and have unique wooden bits in their mouths.
This kind of wooden chew has been brewed with some kind of potion from Qianmo Cave. It tastes like the most delicious honey to war horses. Every war horse will bite this wooden chew tightly and suck it constantly.
As soon as they came, the horses of the entire Da Mang cavalry army reduced the noise to a minimum.
Lu Denggao was not wearing the armor and helmet of the commander of this cavalry army, but was wearing the armor of the ordinary Damang Qingqi Army. A school officer with a similar stature to him became his stand-in and moved towards his clothes.
First.
The reason for this is that starting from more than ten days ago, a powerful Yunqin Archer assassin suddenly appeared on the battlefield behind Qianxia Mountain. In the past ten days, this Yunqin Archer has already
Continuously assassinated seven generals above level six and six low-level generals.
They are all the same self-made improved arrows, killing with one arrow.
Now almost all the Da Mang army knew that there was a powerful archer on their side who was constantly assassinating Yun Qin's generals, and the archer on the other side was obviously doing the same thing.
Because in the previous assassinations, the Da Mang army did not even see the shadow of the Yunqin archer, so many Da Mang generals were a little panicked about this assassin who came and went without a trace, and Lu Dengdao even more
It was because one of the generals who were assassinated was once his old boss, and that old boss was very powerful in his mind, so he was even more powerful than the average Yunqin archer.
Reckless generals should be more hated and feared.
According to the advancing speed of that Yunqin army, they would be able to launch a charge in only about five stops.
However, inexplicably, although he knew that with so many small and large armies performing various military affairs, it was impossible for him to bump into the archer by chance, and he had made preparations in advance, Lu Denggao still felt some inexplicable palpitations.
Especially at this moment, he suddenly felt as if someone's eyes were like cold water, sweeping over his body and the bodies of those around him.
"laugh!"
At the moment when his left eyelid twitched involuntarily, a shrill roar came from the air.
The entire body of flesh and bones from his chin to the back of the neck of the school officer wearing his armor who was not far away from him was suddenly blown away in an instant.
A feeling of fear so intense that Lu Dendao's teeth made a chattering sound.
…
Lin Xi drew back her bow, stood up from the grass, and started running.
But he always turned his head, staring at the rear of the Da Mang cavalry that instantly fell into panic and chaos.
At this moment, he saw many Da Mang sergeants unconsciously surrounding a man wearing ordinary Da Mang cavalry armor, and there were more than ten Da Mang soldiers beside the man wearing ordinary armor.
The reckless soldiers erected giant thick shields half a man's height in the darkness.
The man in ordinary armor had completely curled up and disappeared into the shields. It was impossible for him to find the opportunity to take action, but he simply shouted the word "go back" in his heart.
….
Lu Dendao felt some inexplicable palpitations, and his left eyelid twitched.
He didn't know that something was already happening in Lin Xi's mind, but he subconsciously turned his head to look at the school officer wearing his armor.
At this moment, a shrill roar came.
An extremely cold metal arrow pierced his throat.
The huge impact of the arrow caused his whole body to fall backwards.
Lu Dendao's last consciousness was completely occupied by fear and confusion.
He didn't understand why the other party only shot one arrow... Why didn't the arrow fall on the school officer? How could it land on him?
He fell off the horse on his back, and at the moment he was about to die, he was just scared and confused when he saw a figure standing up in the grass on the opposite side, carrying a long bow on his back, and began to gallop.
"Chase!"
The Damang cavalry woke up in fear and shock that their commander was shot dead. They realized that it was the Yunqin assassin in today's legend. After a moment of confusion, they began to drive their horses frantically to pursue the demonic figure.
This Yunqin assassin was finally discovered for the first time.
However, the price was that the commander-in-chief was accurately assassinated!
How can he know exactly who is the coach?
Everyone knows that thousands of cavalry have an absolute advantage over a single practitioner. However, when they began to pursue the lightning-fast figure in front of them, which officially appeared in the sight of Da Mang soldiers for the first time, something inexplicable happened.
The sense of unreality and fear still permeates the hearts of every Da Mang soldier in this army.
