Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 148: Light Knight Night Strike (Part 1)

Thank you book friend Xiaoyun for your reward!

……

After placing the injured, Zhao Wuxi ordered the heads of Zhao Shuqi's party to be dealt with separately, and all the bodies were moved to the threshing ground and piled on the firewood.

Zhao Wuxi directly clicked on the well, which had already changed into a more armourless soap, and handed him the pine torch.

"You go and burn it yourself."

Jing Weiwei complied and limped forward. Looking back on all the things that happened tonight, he was very concerned. Although he had saved his life, he had lost all of what he had gained in the past six months.

When the torch lit the firewood, it made a crackling sound, and the flame gradually became bigger and devoured everything. A gust of incense from human flesh came, and the fireworks shot up to several feet high, making the light visible for miles away.

Jing Yi waved his hand and threw the torch in. He desperately breathed in the smoke and dust that made others sick. Today, not only the corpse and sin, but also everything in his past was burned. From now on, he will be a brand new well, a loyal soldier who can serve the gentleman with all his heart!

It's just, pity my sister, she will surely die in Xixiang... Jing felt sour, but Mu Xia slapped her with a big slap on the shoulder.

He turned his head and saw that Mucha had taken off the mask and gave him a simple and honest smile: "Dashan, the signal has been sent out."

Jing was at a loss: "What signal?"

Mu Xia pointed to the dark distance and said, "A gentleman has no last resort. Where do you think Yu Xi and Tian Ben went?"

……

In the dark night, after a fire was ignited in Chengxiang, a high-lying village, there was a burst of cheers in a depression at the foot of the mountain, which was easy to hide.

About twenty big men in red robes, carrying daggers, daggers, bows and arrows and other weapons, lay down on the ground. They were sent by Zhao Zhongxin and Zhao Shuqi to meet the people who went up the mountain. According to the previously agreed plan, after setting fire to the Chengxiang government treasury and the artisan workshop, the people on the mountain will quickly come down, meet them here, and then drive back.

So at this time, everyone thought that they had succeeded on the mountain, so they relaxed and lit torches one after another. Under the light of the light, they untied the reins of the horses and prepared to accept their accomplices to leave. However, while the light gives the illusion of safety, it also exposes its whereabouts to the beasts lurking in the darkness.

Among the crowd, only the two Sima Xixiang, who had military experience, squinted, looked at the fire on the mountain and murmured, "Something's wrong, something's wrong, isn't the fire too small?"

"Pata Pata", vaguely, there was a sound of neat rhythm all around, everyone perked up their ears in confusion, and the two Sima immediately jumped up from the car, lay on the ground and listened, and found that there were also sounds on the ground. There was a slight tremor, and he couldn't even bark well.

"It's a chariot! The chariot of the brigade!"

The people who go up the mountain are on foot, not by car, so the person who comes is likely to be the enemy!

Among the people present, there were two groups of people from Dongxiang and Xixiang. The people in Xixiang were warriors selected by Zhao Shuqi. They were attacked in the middle of the night. They did not panic, but gathered together. They relied on several carriages as a barrier, with swords, ge, bow and arrow facing outward, ready to face the incoming enemy at any time.

And the people in Dongxiang are no longer in such a good order. Zhao Zhongxin doesn't care about military training. Most of them are ordinary village soldiers.

"what!"

One of them screamed suddenly, and after being hit by some mysterious force in the dark, he instantly flew ten feet away, a hole was pierced in his neck, and viscous blood flowed out of it. He twitched a few times on the ground, and then The dead can no longer die.

The man closest to him was in a panic when he saw this, and rolled and crawled with a torch. At this moment, a huge shadow broke through the thick darkness and chased him from behind.

Now everyone saw it clearly. It turned out that the attacker was riding a tall horse. He was wearing a leather jacket, leather armor, pants, and a nine-foot spear. The knight's legs were tightly sandwiched between the horse's belly, and he rode the horse with one hand, while the other hand controlled the tip of the spear forward and aimed at the man.

With horsepower, people don't need to make too many movements. He only needs to gently send the spear to the back of the fleeing person below. Next, relying on the speed and strength of the horse is enough to kill him.

The knight's spear pierced the man's chest from behind, and the blood-stained spear tip came out through his body, and he seemed to be dead.

The voices of the two Sima Xixiang suddenly became bitter: "It's not a chariot, it's a light knight riding alone!"

A light knight who rides on a horse alone, it is said that there is such a strange army in the place of the concubine of the Zhao clan in Chengxiang. Although the leaders of the crowd, Zhao Zhongxin and Zhao Shuqi, have always sneered at this, but today, they have just revealed the veil of mystery.

After the light knight succeeded, he whistled happily. He let go of the spear he had stuck on the corpse and beat the horse away. At this juncture, someone on the side of the carriage tried to shoot an arrow, but it just flew past the saddle.

The light knight seemed to be showing off his horsemanship. He clamped the horse's body tightly between his legs. He reached out and took off the horned bow on the side of the horse. With his backhand, he took out a feather arrow from the obliquely hanging quiver. shoot!

The two Xixiang Sima lost their voices and shouted, "Be careful!"

However, it was too late.

"Stretch"! Only a sound of a string was heard, and before the man who had just released the arrow had set up the second one, there was a cluster of feather arrows at the door, and he fell to the ground.

Everyone was amazed by his superb equestrian and archery skills~www.wuxiahere.com~ Only the two Sima continued to turn their heads and shouted, "Two or three sons, hurry up, put out the torches."

Those villagers from Dongxiang are still foolishly running towards this side holding torches. Isn't this a target for people!

He clearly shouted at the top of his voice, but the last few words became quieter.

It wasn't that the sound became smaller, but in the depths of the darkness, a series of sharp whistling sounds suddenly sounded!

The knight's arrow seemed to be a signal. Next, more than ten arrows were shot from different directions. The screaming sound of arrows breaking through the air was getting closer and closer, the two Sima subconsciously pressed the people around them and fell to the ground together, and several alert companions also fell under the car at the same time.

The moment they touched the ground, they heard a few "pu pu" sounds, followed by continuous screams. Many people around had been hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Got shot over.

After harvesting a wave of life, the whistling sound of the arrows stopped for a while, and the two Sima knew that this was not the end, but that the ambushers were rewinding the strings. At this moment of life and death, he understood that the only helper on his side was the dark night!

"Come over and lie down, using the carriage as a barrier! Put out the torches, they can't see!" The two Sima shouted, greeting their companions, but the sound was broken again by a volley...

……

PS: During the Spring and Autumn Period, there were countless examples of marching and fighting at night. When the Chu army was unable to defeat the Jin army, they used the "Escape at Night" method many times. The battle of Wuyue and Lize was a famous night battle.
