"When did the barbarians start practicing assassination? Their temperament should disdain this method."
It was almost dusk, standing on the tall wall of Zhulong Village, Ling Tian, ??who felt that he had been guarding for another day in vain, frowned and said: "To fight boldly with spears, that is their nature."
¡°Barbarians are not necessarily impulsive and fiery, just like us southerners are not all imitators"
Lin Yu looked far into the north with his deep eyes, and responded with a slight smile: "Tianhan and the little princess of the Barbarian Tribe Alliance, and the great wizard Luo Ke who has not been walking in the world for a long time, few people can make them angry at the same time. The barbarians who came this time But they have to take Tang An back no matter what, whether they bring him back alive or with his head, they don't care about the means, but they only want the results."
"This is also the reason why we don't want Xiong Xiugu and the others to know. According to their temperament, they will definitely let us shamelessly hand over Tang An and the barbarian girl to the barbarians. And I believe that after the matter spreads, in the face of When there are more barbarians, when faced with the possibility that Zhulong Village will be destroyed by the barbarians, most people will naturally force us to hand Tang An over."
After listening to Lin Yu's words, Ling Tian raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes fell on Lin Yu's face. He thought about what else to say. Seeing his expression suddenly became solemn, Ling Tian turned back and looked to the north. At the same time, inside the village gate. The clear bells on the tall arrow towers on both sides suddenly rang.
The mist that appeared at dusk dispersed like smoke and dust, and with a thunderous sound of horse hooves, a group of cavalry burst out of the mist.
Picking up the strong bow from one side, Lin Yu squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. He vaguely saw the barbarians on horseback wrapped in animal skins and soft armor holding horse reins. Their faces were full of excitement, as if they had seen prey, and they heard in their ears Lin Yu's eyes narrowed even more when he heard the excited roars and screams.
"Get ready to meet the enemy!"
Ignoring the large number of shouts and the rumbling footsteps in the village, Ling Tian tightened his fist like a bowl and shouted loudly.
The nearly a hundred archers guarding the wall did not appear to be very nervous. Almost all of them had been taught by Lin Yu, the only high-level archer in the village who was in the martial arts stage. Some of them lined up in a row were archers, and they had been After fighting against the barbarians, when Ling Tian's roar rang out, everyone showed no fear and raised the strong bows in their hands. Xu La aimed at the barbarian cavalry that was pressing over like dark clouds, preparing to fight.
The ground was shaking, and thousands of barbarian cavalry rushed over. When a sharp whistle sounded, the nearly a thousand barbarian cavalry suddenly stopped their momentum when they were still seven or eight hundred meters away from the pig cage village. A large number of barbarians were holding reins and scattered across the plains and deserts. Even against the wind, their excited roars could be heard from afar.
"Qianqi!"
At this time, Duanmu Yingchun had already jumped to the wall of the village. After seeing it clearly, Duanmu Yingchun couldn't help being startled. He slowly frowned and said, "More than a thousand cavalry came at once. Such a number is simply an invasion. The barbarians are not afraid of provoking a fight between the two countries." war!"
¡°This is not an invasion, it¡¯s just hunting.¡±
Tang An ran up after Huo Xiaoyi, but Lei Dong and Tantai Xinyue followed him and broke through the nervous backup villagers' archers under the village wall and squeezed up. They squinted and saw clearly the barbarian cavalry an arrow away. , Tantai Xinyue couldn't help but said: "They do not belong to the Northern Tribe Alliance, so no matter Wanjia or the Daxia Empire, even if they are all captured, they cannot question or condemn the Northern Tribe Alliance."
"If the Beiren are cruel and inhumane cold-blooded creatures in your eyes, then you can think of them as violent and bloodthirsty monsters"
Facing everyone's puzzled looks, Tantai Xinyue said seriously: "You have all seen the wolf-headed snake-body monster pattern tattooed on their foreheads. In the north, only the Fierce Desolate tribe has such tattoos. Among them, In my eyes, except for the tribesmen, other barbarians are prey or food that can be hunted."
"I'm right. Don't look at me like that. They do eat people. It's because of this that the Northern Tribe Alliance didn't divide them into the alliance, and the Fierce Desolate Tribe doesn't care either." Tantai Xin After Yue finished speaking, he added another sentence.
"How do you know this?" Xiong Xiugu frowned and looked at Tantai Crescent, and asked with suspicion: "Beiren? Only barbarians can call themselves this. What is your background?"
"She was kindly rescued by a small tribe of barbarians in the north, so she was called that" Tang An grabbed the distraction, pointed at the barbarian cavalry in the distance, and exclaimed in surprise: "Look, they started to move. .¡±
It did move, but the barbarians who stopped an arrow away did not rein up their horses and rush over as everyone expected. More than half of the seven hundred horsemen were lined up in several rows. The barbarians on the horses took off their strong bows and equipped them with sharp arrows, but they did not. raised, while the remaining three hundred riders?But he reined in his horse and left the team and ran diagonally towards the east of Zhulong Village.
The strong bows and sharp arrows were ready, but the villagers of Zhulong Village, who were ready for all battles, looked at this scene with puzzled faces. In their eyes, the barbarians should have raised their wooden shields to protect their chests. The only thing to do was to rush over. This time, there were thousands of horsemen coming, but they didn't charge. They ran towards the endless rice fields to the east but didn't know what to do.
Rushing into the golden rice fields, I don't know who sent out a sharp whistle. The barbarian cavalry, who wanted to rush into the rice fields that would be ripe for at most half a month, immediately reined in their horses and grabbed the horse from behind. There was a wooden shield as tall as a man, but the barbarians formed a circle and stood still outside the rice field.
"What are they doing?" No matter how hard Duanmu Yingchun squinted, he couldn't clearly see the situation in the circle surrounded by the barbarian cavalry. He couldn't help but ask Lin Yu, who was squinting next to him, "Can you see?"
"There are a few people in the middle, but I can't see what they are doing." Lin Yu shook his head.
"The clothes are very tattered. Well he looks like a Buddhist disciple in trouble. He dug a hole in the ground. No, there are more than one. He is directing several barbarians to dig. Now they have dug three holes. The shape of the word 'Æ·'"
Lin Yu couldn't see it, and Tantai Xinyue couldn't see it even more clearly. After all, Lin Yu was a top-grade archer in the Jie Gang period and she was only a middle-grade one. But just because the two archers couldn't see it didn't mean that others couldn't see it. I had already guessed. Tang An, who had figured out what the barbarians were doing, spoke softly, narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Now they started pouring a yellow powder into the potholes, but they did not fill it up."
"Yellow powder! Are they preparing to poison?" It was difficult to calm down. Duanmu Yingchun couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth when he thought of Tang Renjie's fate and the tragic death of the gray jackal in the experiment he had just done during the day.
"It's probably not poisoning."
Lin Yu stepped aside to make way for him to step forward. Tang An was not polite. He walked to the wall of the village and looked over. He followed the gaps between the barbarian cavalry and said slowly: "The barbarians are in the limelight. , whether they spill it or use this method to poison us, they themselves will be infected before it poisons us."
"It's moving again." Ling Lan, who ran up at some point, squeezed in next to her father Ling Tian and looked around. Seeing the more than 300 barbarian cavalry starting to run to the southeast again, she didn't show fear but was a little excited. The finger is a shout.
"I think I know what they are doing." Looking away from the barbarian cavalry in the distance, Tang An's eyes followed them and said at the same time: "The last horse is the Buddhist monk yes, it is the ascetic monk. The horse he was riding had a slit in the animal skin bag on its back. As he rode forward, the yellow powder sprinkled in the bag drew a line behind him. He was in the formation, and he was a formation. division!"
"Array! Array master!"
Obviously Qi Humang or General Wang Shen did not tell Duanmu Yingchun, Xiong Xiugu and others too much news, or even Qi Humang and others did not know that the barbarians had an formation master this time. At first glance, Duanmu Yingchun and others couldn't help but be shocked by Tang An's words.
"No wonder they refused to rush over."
Lin Yu's brows knitted into the character "Chuan", and he held the strong bow in his hand tightly. He said in a solemn voice: "More than a thousand cavalry, their bows and arrows are enough to stop us from a distance. If all their arrows are Not to mention the ones that have quenched the venom, but we can¡¯t do this and watch that formation master complete this formation that we don¡¯t know.¡±
"We have three archery masters here, you who are at the top level of the Jie Gang stage, and the woman behind Tang An who is at the middle level of the Jie Gang stage, plus Ling Tian, ??your son Ling Feng is a low level archer at the Jie Gang stage, you three Can I personally stop him?" Duanmu Yingchun was also a little impatient. He had never seen the power of the formation master, but he had heard of it.
The formation of the formation by the formation master is extremely slow and time-consuming, but if he is allowed to complete the formation, who can guarantee that the lethality will not exceed the sharp arrows and machetes of the more than a thousand barbarian cavalry who are attacking.
Squeezing out from behind Ling Tian, ??Ling Feng, Ling Tian's son and Ling Lan's brother, looked very honest. It was the first time he had experienced this, and he couldn't wait. However, he took down his strong bow and arrows and waited for orders, ready to shoot his own at any time. Long arrow.
"Let me try!" Seeing the group of barbarians gathering their horses and forming a circle again, Lin Yu took a deep breath. There was no longer any expression on his face. He calmly placed an arrow on his bow, and then slowly pulled the arrow. Open the bow string.
Squinting his eyes through the gap between the barbarian cavalry, he found the ascetic monk Tang An mentioned. Lin Yu was not in a hurry to take action. The power of his earth elemental power moved with his thoughts, and a faint yellow light enveloped him in an instant. The body surface, and the seemingly thin arms swelled a bit in an instant, and they seemed to have infinite power.
The original earth elementThe Gangli of the ?? attribute strengthens defense and strength. Ganghun is the life Ganghun wind energy animal Wu Zui. When the Ganghun's Gangli moves with Lin Yu, a light cyan light rushes in and pours into that place. Among the long yellow arrows.
The arms that were blessed with the power of earth and earth were as steady as rocks, and the long arrows that were blessed with the power of life and soul, black wind and wind, were quietly resting on the strings. The shining arrows were locked on the barbarian cavalry from a distance. Lin Yu, who was always very confident in his archery skills, could not shoot an arrow for a long time.
