Chapter 71 Step Shot(1/2)
"Go to the south."
Jiuye Qian Zhongyong shouted the order.
This area is not vast, and it is not easy to ride and shoot when entangled.
Moreover, by attracting this group of people, he can also reduce the pressure on his son Qian Likui.
Wait until these people are dealt with, and then come and have a fatal blow.
Eleven horsemen walked southwards, and the fierce and thick horse thief roared and chased after them, smoke and dust rolled, and dozens of horsemen ran and chased in the saline-alkali wasteland. Yang He and others walked in front, while the horse thieves behind were chasing desperately. Some of them even bent their bows and arrows and kept shooting arrows.
"Swish!"
The sound of arrows breaking through the air was constantly heard, and one even flew away from Yang He's head, almost a few millimeters from his soft feet.
However, it is not easy to hit the target on the rushing horse. The brilliant achievements of Yang He and others earlier were also related to the fact that the horse thieves were generally still.
So most of the people were safe and sound, with only one bodyguard groaning and shaking on the horse.
He seemed to be caught in an arrow, but he could still take action on the horse, but he could no longer control the horse with his legs and needed to grab the reins.
Yang He looked back and saw dozens of horse thieves chasing behind him, and some horse thieves had even rushed into the range of twenty steps. Some horse thieves even urged the horses to get their crotched, shouting and pulling out their weapons.
Suddenly, Yang He bent his bow and arrow. On the rushing war horse, the moment the horse's four legs soared into the air, he stepped on the stirrup and turned around.
"call out--"
An arrow shot out strongly, hitting a thief's chest.
With a "puff", the arrow entered the flesh and penetrated the chest, and the bloody rain was brought out with the arrowhead.
Before the thief could even make a sound, he was led by an arrow and rolled down his horse.
He fell into the dust, and the horse thief behind him was unable to close his power, and stepped straight through him in his wide eyes.
The thief screamed loudly with his bones shattering, and soon the screams dissipated in the cold wind with the smoke and dust.
Like Yang He, Jiu Ye, Qian Sanniang and others also set their bows and arrows, stepped on the stirrups and stood up, and then shot out their own arrows.
"Puchi!"
Blood flowers dotted.
As the arrow roared, a horse thief suddenly shot through his throat. He fell off his horse and a mouthful of blood was spurted out.
At the same time, he rolled in the weeds and loess, covering his neck hard and struggling, in pain.
However, Qian Sanniang shot an arrow.
There was also Jiuye who shot another horse thief in the eye, causing him to scream and roll into the dust.
There was also an escort who shot a thief's horse.
The war horse neighed, and its front hooves were raised high, throwing the horse thief out directly.
The horse galloped and suddenly stopped. This huge drop force directly broke the bandit's bones in many places, and it also caused countless rolls on the ground due to its huge inertia.
After he stopped, he was already struggling to vomit blood. Perhaps he would not be able to ride on a horse again in his life.
Of course, not everyone can master this kind of skill of turning back. There are only four people in the eleven cavalry in the group, Yang He, Jiu Ye, Qian Sanniang, and one of the mentors in the inner circle have this ability.
Even so, the chasing horse thieves were terrified and slowed down the horses one after another. It was useless to let the fierce and bold horse thief roar loudly.
As horse thieves, they have a high status in the army. Although they obey orders, they do not mean that they have the power to seize life and death. If each person feels threatened by life, they can still refuse the orders issued by the leaders.
Yang He looked at the situation behind him, rode his horse to Qian Zhongyong, and said, "Master Jiu, you can go back."
Master Jiu Qian Zhongyong nodded, and he still sighed in his heart: "What a genius."
Earlier, he saw that although Xianggong Yang was skillful in riding, he did not have a tacit understanding of his cooperation with Wu Zhong. After all, he was not a member of the escort agency, but now...
He even turned his back and went with him.
Perhaps, this young scholar was born for troubled times.
He shouted, "Go back."
He controlled the horse with his legs and turned his head.
Yang He rode his horse beside him, and Qian Sanniang followed, while Qian Lijue was one step behind.
Although this young man is skilled in archery and horse racing, he obviously has not experienced any practice. He has been unable to keep up until now.
They rushed back, and the corpses followed one after another, bent their bows and arrows.
The horse thieves behind saw that the "desergers" in front of them actually came back, and they all shouted, and they all lit their bows and arrows.
The two sides rushed each other through more than ten steps, and the bowstrings rang out. As the arrows roared, they screamed and turned over.
Yang He shot an arrow, and with a "pop", it penetrated a horse thief's chest. Both sides hedged and with the help of horsepower, they both strengthened the power of their own arrows.
The horse thief was shot by Yang He's arrow, and screamed and rolled backwards and fell off his mount.
Jiuye and Qian Sanniang also shot a thief, and Qian Lijue shot a horse thief's arm.
The remaining bodyguards also had two horsemen who shot the horse thief.
In an instant, the horse thief suffered another casualties from six horsemen.
But our side also suffers damage.
The fierce and bold horse thief let go of the bowstring. With a "swoosh", a corpse gust of blood was squirting out, and the sharp arrow shot through his body, causing him to roll off the horse.
After he fell to the ground, he was exhausted without a sound.
But an arrow was shot in his heart.
There was also an escort horse who was caught in an arrow, and the war horse neighed, raised its front hooves high, and threw him into the smoke and dust.
Then the horse whined and ran wildly, not knowing where to go.
Seeing that his stuntman was caught in the arrow, Jiu Ye opened his mouth and finally rode his horse.
In a blink of an eye, only nine of them remained, and one of them was injured by an arrow early.
Fighting immediately is like this cruelty. Suddenly, life and death are only in a moment.
However, until now, the number of casualties of horse thieves has reached ten people. They have nearly thirty horses and their losses have reached 30%.
The cruel battle also made them feel scared. The horse thief didn't sound a word, and the horse left. The rest were also yelling in fear, turning the horses around and fleeing to their own brigade. It would be useless if the fierce and bold horse thief roared and scolded.
In the end, he had no choice. Although his side had many people, he was not as good as the other party's archery. Both sides had horses. There was no need for the other party to fight against you. Just fly kites from afar.
So if you continue to fight, you may lose more people.
More importantly, the horse thieves in the team no longer have the will to fight. They all turned their horses to escape. They could not stay alone, right?
He instigated the horses and turned around and ran for his life.
The horses under his crotch were fat and strong, and even ran faster. Soon he ran far away to the heads of the thieves.
"Justice Jiu, chase and keep all these horse thieves."
Seeing the horse thief running away, Yang He rode his horse next to Qian Zhongyong and said excitedly.
Jiuye Qian Zhongyong nodded vigorously. The biggest casualties occurred when he fled. It was the time. At the same time, his heart was filled with passion, as if he remembered the situation when he fought against the Tartars with his elder brother and others back then, and how similar the situation was to the current situation.
He looked back and forth. The faces of the corps officers were extremely excited. Even the youngest son was eager to try. Only his daughter Qian Sanniang still looked cold. She sighed in her heart. This daughter has always been a heart-wrenching problem and is hard to marry.
He shouted, "Catch up."
Dozens of horses were running wildly in the saline-alkali wasteland. Now the situation is reversed. Horse thieves are running desperately in front, while Yang He and others are chasing desperately in back.
Yang He rode his horse, feeling the cold wind roaring in his ears, and the bitter cold wind vigorously motivated his cloak.
The horse galloped, and the sound of hooves seemed to shake the earth violently. Yang He felt his blood boiling, and it was also exciting.
I seem to enjoy the feeling of being on the battlefield...
But a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and he is afraid that he will not experience many battles on the battlefield after his power grows in the future.
But in front of you.
Yang He takes a bow and arrow,
"Swoosh!"
The horse bow collapses, and the arrows roar.
With a "puff", a horse thief's back heart was penetrated by a sharp arrow twenty steps ahead.
His body shook and tilted, and then the horses rolled back.
Yang He set off his bow and arrows again, and the arrows roared away again. A horse thief was shot nearly thirty steps ahead.
The war horse neighed shrillly, throwing the thief on his back down, and then Yang He stepped by without hesitation.
The sound of bone shattering accompanied by howling, and was then thrown far behind the smoke and dust.
The bowstrings were scattered, not only Yang He shot arrows, but also Jiuye, Qian Sanniang, and the corpses kept firing.
They either shot people or horses, screaming, and the horse thieves in front of them kept falling down or the horses were injured.
In the blink of an eye, they lost more than a dozen people and horses, which made the horse thieves even more frightened, and they all urged the horses to escape desperately.
To be continued...
