Chapter 159
Except for Wang Xing and the medical craftsman, including Liang Xiao, the ten knights shot and killed the two soldiers in an instant with a single bow and several arrows.

The Fujian and Yue soldiers in the distance realized that something was wrong, so they took up their weapons and rushed over, but they couldn't keep up with the speed of the horses.In a hurry, they also shot a few arrows, but facing the fast-moving target, they couldn't even talk about the hit rate, even if they shot occasionally, it was useless.With the protection of Zhajia, it is difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to cause actual damage to Liang Xiao and others.

The two sides didn't even have actual contact, they shot a round of arrows at each other, Liang Xiao and others disappeared from their field of vision, leaving behind five corpses.There were more injured people. They covered their wounds and looked at each other, feeling like they were dreaming.These knights came suddenly and went even more suddenly. They didn't even figure out who the other party was, and they suffered heavy losses.

The team leader hesitated for a while, but still sent someone to send the news.However, he didn't say much, he just casually said that a dozen or so people, on horseback, passed their defense zone and headed south.

Little did he realize that a battle had just begun that was completely different from his experience.

Liang Xiao put away the bow, pulled out the arrow embedded in the gap in the armor, took a look, and put it into the quiver.With Zhajia, the safety factor is greatly improved. Unless he encounters close-range shooting, his life will basically not be in danger.If he had been protected by Zhajia yesterday, he would never have suffered such a serious injury.

The first battle was successful, and roughly estimated that three or four people were shot and seven or eight were injured, but none of them were really injured.This is a good start. The riding and archery skills of Liangjiazi from the six counties are really good. Even on fast galloping horses, they still maintain a high hit rate, basically keeping above [-]%. Li Shuyun shot four arrows, Three arrows hit, and one of them sealed his throat with one arrow.

In contrast, he was much worse. He shot three arrows and only one arrow hit, and it wasn't critical.

Still need to practice.

As the horse galloped, the wound on Liang Xiao's body seemed to open again, with waves of dull pain.Liang Xiao missed the horse that Wei Qing had chosen for him.Although the horse was not as fast as Qing Cong, it ran more steadily, which greatly helped him improve his riding skills.It's a pity that the horse was returned to the post house before crossing the river, and now I can't find it.

Can only endure.

They galloped forward for about ten miles, and met another group of scouts, only five of them, separated by a few steps, distributed on the official road less than a hundred steps away.Seeing their figures from a distance, Li Shuyun made a gesture, turned the horse's head, and galloped to the left of the road, as if to avoid these Fujian and Yue scouts.

Although the Minyue scouts clenched the weapons in their hands, they did not attack. They just looked at the knights vigilantly.They have never seen such knights, and they don't know what they do, whether they are enemies or friends.If you can't dodge in time, and the number of people is not dominant, you can only increase your vigilance.

Just when they were hesitating, the ten knights divided into two sides, and sandwiched the five scouts from both sides. Seeing that Li Shuyun, who was at the front, was about to meet the last scout, and the encirclement was completed, they suddenly launched an attack. Just shoot with the bow.

After a few strings, three of the five scouts who hadn't figured out the situation were shot dead and two were seriously injured.The injured Minyue scout fell to the ground, covering his bleeding wound, his eyes widened, and he screamed in horror.

Qin Ge jumped off the horse, kicked one of them down, drew out his long sword, and pointed it at his throat.The Minyue scout immediately shut his mouth, not even daring to breathe.Wang Xing rushed over, asked a few words in the local language, and his face became a little ugly.

"There is a team of about 300 Yue bandits rushing to Fuboli. Fuboli was besieged by Yue bandits. 200 people attacked for three days, but failed to capture. They went to reinforce."

When Liang Xiao heard this, his expression turned ugly.They were preparing to go to Fuboli, but there were [-] Vietnamese soldiers outside Fuboli, and [-] more were reinforcements.

Is the tree inviting the wind?Liang Xiao immediately thought of Fuboli's iron work.He winked at Wang Xing. "Ask him, whose idea?"

"What?" Wang Xing didn't understand.

"The question is who gave the order to attack Fuboli." Liang Xiao was a little anxious. "Could it be that the Yue thief took a fancy to Fuboli's iron work?"

Wang Xing understood, and his face turned pale.At first he thought it was just an ordinary robbery, but when Liang Xiao reminded him, he realized that the problem might not be as simple as an ordinary robbery.They probably went for the iron works.

Iron work means weapons at this time.

At the beginning Wang Xing still had some demeanor, but when he was in a hurry, he lost his demeanor. Just as the Minyue scout hesitated for a moment, Wang Xing raised his hand and slapped the Minyue scout unconscious.Several slaps were slapped on the face, but Wang Xing was furious, and drew out his long sword, which pierced his heart, turned around and held the bloody long sword, and went straight to the half-scarred man. scout.

After a while, Wang Xing stabbed the Yue man to death with a sword, and returned to Liang Xiao with a murderous look.

"It's your master Huan Yuan."

The corners of Liang Xiao's mouth twitched, and his temples thumped wildly.Did I slip the tongue and tell the master the steelmaking method?

Although iron smelting technology has improved significantly these days, it is still a long way from forging, and basically follows casting technology, so iron swords are either easy to break, or can only be thickened and widened, which is very heavy.If Huan Yuan heard about the steelmaking method from him, he would be in serious trouble.

In this era, Liang Xiao has always been more cautious, but he and Huan Yuan get along day and night, and he can't guarantee that he will not reveal anything.What if Huan Yuan overheard the sleep talk?His ears are not so good.

The more Liang Xiao thought about it, the more uneasy he became.

Seeing that Liang Xiao's expression was not right, the officials looked at each other, and the atmosphere became tense.When the Wangjiang station was ambushed, Huanyuan's shooting skills and tactics left a deep impression on them.Liang Xiao and Li Jiao are evenly matched, and if Li Jiao is gone forever, what are Liang Xiao's chances of winning?What's more, he was injured.

Now, Huanyuan took the lead and sent 500 people to their destination Fuboli.There is a huge disparity between the number of people and the number of people, and the opportunity has been lost. Is there still a chance?
All eyes fell on Liang Xiao.If he wants to deal with Huan Yuan, his hope lies in Liang Xiao, no one else has such confidence.

Under everyone's gaze, Liang Xiao's heart beat faster and his blood rushed upwards.

Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry.Liang Xiao tried his best to comfort himself, took a dozen deep breaths in a row, and managed to calm himself down.He thought for a while and asked, "My lord, how far is Fuboli from here?"

"About thirty miles."

"So far?" Liang Xiao frowned, suddenly realizing a problem. "Isn't the base camp of the Yue bandits more than fifty miles away?"

"More than that." Wang Xing explained, "Even if we count from Zhenze, it's still seventy miles away."

"Seventy miles?" Liang Xiao smiled sinisterly. "It's not easy to spread the news, and it's even more difficult to transport food, isn't it?"

"That's right, for seventy miles, even the fastest runner will need a whole day. It usually takes three days to transport food, and it will take one day and one night at the fastest."

Liang Xiao smiled even more happily. "My master said that those who make good use of soldiers will never serve again, and their food will not last for three years. If Fuboli is really his intended goal, he will definitely inquire about Fuboli's situation clearly and send enough troops. Carrying enough food and grass, it is absolutely impossible to send troops for reinforcements. In other words, if these 300 people were really arranged by my master, then the first 200 people must not be arranged by my master."
