Chapter 48

Ye Xiaotian hugged Xia Yingying and rolled up against the ground, but a crossbow still hit his calf, and the pain suddenly became clear.

In fact, if Ye Xiaotian did not roll quickly against the ground, the arrow might not have hit him, because they were in the tent, and the assassin could not see their position at all, so he could only roughly estimate the possible location and shoot the arrow quickly. So by chance, Ye Xiaotian came up by himself.

However, in the game, how can we accurately determine whether the opponent's arrow can hit him? Once the arrow is on the body, it is impossible to avoid it. No one can be so fast. Ye Xiaotian has no other choice. After all, the safety of lying on the ground is higher.

He reacted very quickly, hugged Yingying and rolled up against the ground, and immediately rolled to the edge of the tent. If there were people in the tent, the activity area would be mostly in the middle of the tent, and it would rarely be close to the tent. Ye Xiaotian had already judged from the angle of the arrow that the other party was shooting a crossbow arrow from the mountain, and was shot from a high point without blind spots. It was safer to avoid the tent edge of the tent.

Ye Xiaotian avoided the edge of the tent and immediately pulled the heavy felt blanket hard to cover him and Yingying. With a thick layer of felt tent outside, plus the felt on his body, even if the strong arrow hit them, it would not take any life after passing through these two layers of barrier buffering.

"The guards on the mountain must have been solved, they must have been sent by Cao Zhan and Zhang Yang!" Ye Xiaotian patted Yingying's back and comforted her calmly, while thinking urgently.

Since he was camping at the foot of the mountain, of course he had to send guards on the mountain, because that was a key point where he could attack and retreat. There was no dense forest on this hillside to hide. Even so, there were eight people on the Ye Xiaotian sect who were on the mountain. Unless eight people were killed at the same time, one of them sent a warning message in time, he would not be so embarrassed.

He has no doubt about his loyalty to his subordinates. You must know that these people were brought out from the mountains, and those brought out from the mountains may not necessarily not be tempted by the prosperity of the world. Thus, he will lose his original belief and loyalty, but he will never fall so quickly. Moreover, they have been collectively active. Even if someone wants to make up for them, it is impossible to approach and bribe them privately.

Then, there is only one possibility: the eight men were wiped out. And they were wiped out silently! Although the mountain was flat, not the jungle, these eight men were actually unable to use their ability to fight in the jungle, but they could kill all eight guards silently, and the enemy was obviously extremely extraordinary.

"Protect your sir!"

The guards outside roared. In the dark night, the enemy was using long-range weapons condescendingly. They were at a disadvantage, but they were not afraid at all. They immediately rushed to Ye Xiaotian's camp with all their might. A row of samurai protected the tent, and a row of samurai raised their shields to launch a counterattack on the hillside.

Ye Xiaotian shouted: "Contract defense, no need to counterattack, just use calmness to prevent it!"

The guards were loyal and fearless. Ye Xiaotian did not want them to die in vain. The other party had already gained an advantage. If they attacked the mountain, half of the guards would probably have to be sacrificed. The other party could kill eight guards silently. I wonder how sinister there were on it. Once the counterattack was launched, the casualties would be great. Now, only by calmness was the best strategy.

Fortunately, the opponent could only fight unexpectedly. Since he was unable to kill him, even though he had the advantage of the opportunity and the advantage of the territory, he could not kill him again under heavy defenses. Ye Xiaotian had to wait until the opponent could not hold back the initiative to attack, so that he could regain the initiative.

The Woniu Mountain warriors treated Ye Xiaotian's orders as a law, and they were completely blindly obedient without the brain. Therefore, at the command of Ye Xiaotian, they immediately closed the tent and set up a line of defense with a large shield.

"Oh! My mother! Mom, how are you?" Yingying calmed down a little, suddenly remembered her mother, and couldn't help but feel anxious. She didn't know that Ye Xiaotian was hit in the calves. When this struggle touched the arrow on Ye Xiaotian's leg, Ye Xiaotian groaned and immediately felt cold sweat.

"Ah! You are injured, where are you injured? Is it serious?" Yingying was so scared that she lost her temper and asked with a crying voice.

Ye Xiaotian said: "I'm fine, don't worry! Aunt, don't move, and hide! You must protect Aunt Xia!"

Mrs. Xia's voice came in a noisy shouting and scolding: "I'm fine, Yingying, don't move around."

The other party obviously put in some effort. They knew which tent lived in Ye Xiaotian, and all the arrows were concentrated on Ye Xiaotian. After Mrs. Xia was awakened by the shouts, she immediately understood what was going on.

Although Mrs. Xia does not understand martial arts, her experience is not comparable to that of a romantic girl like Yingying. She immediately turned over and landed on her body calmly, and turned the bed back and forth on her body, without worrying about the arrows shot from a high place.

Ye Xiaotian and Yingying settled down when they heard her voice. Ye Xiaotian calmed down and ordered: "After protecting the big tent, dispatch two groups of people to climb the mountain slowly from the left and right wings! The enemy is dark and we are bright, and we should take every step forward, and we should not advance aggressively!"

There was a deep voice outside, and the guard commander immediately began to dispatch people according to Ye Xiaotian's instructions.

On the hillside, there were several figures standing beside the dark rocks. They were dressed in black and covered in black scarves. They were mixed with the rocks and could not see any trace.

"Young Master, they sent someone to touch them from both wings."

"withdraw!"

"Young Master, I can't confirm whether he died or not, we..."

"There are always opportunities!"

The words were still in my ears. The man in black, who was called the young master, had already floated away. There was an ancient swordsman who was empty and could not hit a single blow and flew thousands of miles away. This young master in black actually had the legacy of the ancient swordsman. He had just one blow, no matter whether he succeeded or failed, he would immediately escape. His judgment of gains and losses was so calm that he was terrible.

It was dawn, and Ye Xiaotian lame his leg and pulled out an arrow from the grass. The arrow was almost gone in the soil, which showed his strength.

Ye Xiaotian looked at the well-made arrow and looked extremely solemn. A guard hurried to him and whispered to report: "Sir, all the eight brothers on the mountain have been assassinated."

Ye Xiaotian said in a deep voice: "How did you die?"

His hand gently stroked the arrow, and then the guard said, "Eight people, all of whom were approached, and their necks were broken with bare hands!"

Ye Xiaotian suddenly turned his head. If these eight people were killed by crossbow arrows, he would not have been too surprised, but the eight first-class hunters were quietly approached by someone. Silently killed with bare hands, this ability would be a bit shocking.

The guard saw Ye Xiaotian's surprise and explained: "Sir, the night is dizzy. If you shoot with a crossbow arrow, you may not be able to hit the vital point with one blow. There will always be someone among the eight people who have time to issue a warning message. Instead, you can get close to it quietly. The person who comes has a very good martial arts skills, but no matter how powerful a person is, it is nothing."

Ye Xiaotian felt relieved and nodded slightly. Although the eight people were originally hunters in the mountains, their alertness and ability were obviously not as good as Hua Yunfei. Hunters like Hua Yunfei could not choose one of a thousand hunters. As long as the opponent was smart in light body and skillful in getting close to solve them one by one, it was actually not difficult. This kind of personal bravery, once used in the battle formation, is extremely limited. But this arrow...

Ye Xiaotian picked up the well-crafted arrow in his hand. This is what really worried him! How many such terrible weapons do the other party have? If the other party has mastered a large number of such weapons, it would be his nightmare.

Ye Xiaotian recognized that this is a military crossbow! It is neither a hunting bow nor a bamboo crossbow made by the mountain people. Its lethality is not the same as those weapons. If it has a large number of military crossbows, it can completely influence the entire battle situation.

How terrible are truly well-made military crossbows? The range of military crossbows is twice as large as that of the bow. The crossbows in the Warring States Period had an effective range of 180 meters. To make an intuitive comparison, modern pistols have an effective range of only 50 meters, and a few powerful ones such as the "Sand Eagle", which has an effective range of only about 100 meters.

Moreover, the crossbow arrow sinks a little when shooting. As long as the aiming is accurate enough, it will almost hit 100%. However, the pistol cannot do it. If the distance is a little far, its rays will become parabolas like arrows, not straight-line shooting.

In addition, the recoil of the crossbow is much greater than that of the crossbow. If you use the 54th stance, which is the "Big Black Star", aiming at the enemy thirty meters away, and want to shoot the head with one shot, the muzzle must be raised to about 18 centimeters above his head before it can hit it. This must be when the opponent stands still, which shows that the crossbow is terrifying.

Of course, any weapon has its shortcomings and must have corresponding restraints. But at least in Guizhou, if there is a chieftain who can prepare military crossbows in large quantities, it can almost kill people and Buddhas.

What Ye Xiaotian was worried about was that if the four coalition forces of Cao Zhan, Zhang and Yang really exhausted their family wealth and obtained a large number of military crossbows from secret channels, he would not have to fight them anymore, and it would be better to return them to the mountains obediently. Although such expensive military crossbows could not be widely equipped by the Ming army, for the local officials in Guizhou, what they called "large amount of equipment" and the "large amount of equipment" of the Ming army were not the same concept.

Ye Xiaotian was a little scared by himself. He didn't know how difficult it was to obtain such military crossbows. In fact, there were only ten military crossbows in the other party's hands, and... these ten military crossbows were created by Tian Miaowen at all costs. He originally planned to equip Woniu Mountain to "behead" the battle formation.

Unfortunately, this batch of valuable important military funds have completely fallen into the enemy's hands. This enemy is a person he never expected.

"Brother Xiaotian, your legs..."

Yingying rushed over and looked at Ye Xiaotian with some distress. His legs were shot through, and red blood still oozed out of the bandage.

"I'm fine!"

Ye Xiaotian gently patted her shoulders: "I'm worried that there will be changes in Guizhou, so I have to rush back immediately. I'll send some guards to you. You and your aunt might as well walk slowly. Let's make an appointment to get together in Tongren!"

"I..." Yingying wanted to refuse. She knew that the target of the killer was Ye Xiaotian, and Ye Xiaotian wanted to separate from them for their safety. The Xia family had its own guards, and the people left by Ye Xiaotian could protect themselves if they were not the other party's main target. But Ye Xiaotian...

But looking at Ye Xiao's eyes, she swallowed the words to her mouth. Yingying was also growing up quietly. Although she was still a little willful, she could tell the difference. So she just nodded with concern and said softly: "Be careful all the way!"

Ye Xiaotian nodded and turned his head toward Guizhou. There were mountains and green mountains ahead. Ye Xiaotian's eyes showed a strong murderous aura. Now he had reached a secret agreement with the court. He was originally lawless, but now he has a cheating. He will not be a mess before he goes there!
