Chapter 25 Night Attack

There are not many troops on both sides, and they fought in a hurry, and they couldn't get their hands together neatly.Ji Junli took the elite soldiers who went out to chase, and there were only seven to eighty people in total.These 80 or 80 people rushed to kill bravely, staring closely at the fleeing thief leader ahead.

It's that kid who looks like a mad dog and bit the flesh off my face!
Right under Ji Junli's eyes, that nasty little boy ran wildly, swearing and swearing from time to time, and shot with his bow left and right.In the field at night, people can't see clearly, bows and arrows fly by, and there is just a whistling sound.Ji Junli was not afraid at all, and kept shouting: "Catch up! Chase up!"

Following his command, dozens of armored soldiers hurriedly formed a long snake-like team, left Guchengdian, and headed south.

A few miles to the south is the Fuhe River.The gravel piled up on the dry river, and the shallow water waded through.The ground was uneven, and the speed of the fleeing person in front suddenly slowed down a lot.

Next to Ji Junli was a soldier holding a torch aloft, and the torch reflected the stumbling figure of the fugitive in front, flickering on and off.A few people could be seen getting tripped by the rough ground, fell to the ground in embarrassment, and then continued to run wildly with hands and feet.

Several archers watched the opportunity and shot with their bows.Another soldier, eager to kill the enemy, threw out the short knives and hand axes around him.

Arrows and knives and axes were everywhere, and there were screams ahead.There was an old man in ragged clothes, the back of the head was hit by a hatchet, and he fell to the ground and struggled.But Ji Junli and others stepped on his body without any scruples and continued to move forward. After four or five people stepped on in a row, the old man's face and half of his body were pressed into the river, and the water flowed, bringing Bloody.

Ji Junli felt very familiar with the situation before him.

When he was young, in Shouzhang County, Dongping, he was a pawn under the inspection team, and he spent all day fighting with the bandits in the water in the south.At that time, and at this moment, he often ran long distances with dozens of people, chasing them day and night, beheading the thieves one by one, cutting off their heads and going back to repay their merits. In exchange for wine and meat, they shared with his companions.

Those thieves were originally ordinary people like Ji Junli.Most of them went bankrupt because of the imperial court's conquest of land, and became bandits.But Ji Junli slaughtered them, and it was justified.In this world, if you have a knife in your hand, you can run wild. There is no right or wrong, only strong or weak.

Ji Junli is willing to follow Yang Aner, because Yang Aner is a strong man; Yang Aner has to bow to the court, because the court is stronger.At this time, the Tiewa Ganzhan army was looking forward to rebellion, and it was also because of the weakness of the imperial court that it was becoming more and more difficult to hide it.

Now that they are going to rebel again, they must be more successful than the previous one.That day Yang An'er set up troops in Shandong, without experienced soldiers under his command, facing the elite from the central capital sent by the imperial court, he was immediately lost.

Isn't it a coincidence this time?After arriving in Hebei, there are stragglers who retreated from the defense line of the Monan Great Wall all over the vicinity.These people are all fierce, and once gathered under their own banner, they will greatly enhance their chances of success!

This group of people in front of them, presumably they are also rout soldiers entrenched in a certain place, they are all capable of fighting.After a while, if you catch the boy who is the leader, you will definitely take his life. If the others are willing to surrender, it is not impossible.It's nothing more than a combination of grace and power, and it takes some effort.

"General, we are a little far away from the camp, should we still pursue?" a subordinate asked.

Another person said: "You must be careful in ambush."

Ji Junli panted and touched his face.The wound on his face was still bleeding, and the viscous blood had already flowed down his neck, congealing into a large purple-black mass on the nail leaf on the side of his neck.Because he was wearing heavy armor, he ran all the way, his head was covered with sweat, and the sweat soaked the wound, which was burning hot.

"The routs in Zuojin are all small groups. Who will ambush them? The group in front of you may be a well-known figure in Ansu Prefecture! If this group is caught, half of the rout soldiers in Ansu Prefecture will die." You have to surrender!"

Ji Junli kept yelling orders to continue hot pursuit.

But he is an experienced warrior after all, he chased after two steps, and said: "Send two teams to walk along the height of the embankment! Keep an eye on the left and right for me! Just in case!"

During the conversation of several people, the footsteps inevitably slowed down, seeing that they were thrown away by the fugitives in front.

Ji Junli yelled a few words, pulled the wound on his face, and the pain became more severe.His irritable temper was aroused, and he chased after him with a knife in his hand.

In a short while, the crowd ran for more than three miles along the river, and the Gucheng store in the north was completely out of sight.

The armored soldiers around Ji Junli were all panting like cows, and their footsteps were heavy; the companions who were exploring along the river bank were blocked by the forest and were left behind.

Fortunately, the thieves in front of them were running out of strength and running slower and slower.A group of prisoners from Guchengdian they had rescued before was even more disorganized, and many of them relied on the support of others to move forward.Ji Junli's subordinates raised their bows and set up arrows again and again, and they knocked over a few more.

The sky was dark and the vision gradually blurred.In order to avoid the rocks near the middle of the river, both teams walked along the edge of the river.The shallow water just under the feet was stepped on densely, making a loud noise.On the earth embankments on both sides of the river, the flocks of birds returning to their nests were startled and flew wildly.

Driven by the flock of birds, Ji Junli raised his gaze slightly upwards.

At the same time as he saw the birds hovering in the sky, a fat figure leaped vertically and fell straight down from directly above him.

There's an ambush behind the embankment!There are enemies!
Ji Junli quickly backed away without thinking.He heard the air whistling and whistling in front of him, and an iron rod as thick as a wrist fell from a few centimeters in front of the door in front of him, smashing the ground and flying gravel.A man next to Ji Junli resisted from the quick-drawing knife, and the iron rod swept across again, first breaking the long knife, and then hitting the head, which instantly shattered.

Ji Junli roared loudly, subconsciously continued to back away.

He had already seen clearly that it was a giant man with a dark gray bunt and a shiny shiny top.Ji Junli can be considered a strong and majestic person, but the fat man is about a foot taller than Ji Junli, and his arms are almost as thick as the waist of ordinary people!
What a monster!What brute force!
A group of people chased for a long time, no matter how well-trained they were, the queue would inevitably be very long.Facing a strong enemy suddenly, they can only go up and fight one by one.Ji Junli took several steps back before bumping into another soldier.He immediately grabbed the soldier's arm and pushed it forward forcefully.

The soldier took a few steps forward when his body froze suddenly.Ji Junli glanced away from the corner of his eye, only to see that a bloody iron rod seemed to have grown out of thin air from his vest, which had been pierced through.

The first few soldiers immediately raised their bows and set their arrows.But at this time, dozens of black shadows appeared above the embankment, throwing arrows at Ji Junli's subordinates.They used heavy arrows commonly used in the military. The clusters of arrows were shaped like chisels and were six or seven inches long.

The range of these arrows is not far, and the lethality is only within fifty steps.But shooting from the top down is incredibly powerful.Even if he was wearing armor, he couldn't stop the slender arrow clusters from piercing the armor and penetrating into the flesh.Dozens of people in the front half of the queue screamed in shock, and their bodies fell to the ground one after another, making heavy noises.

Ji Junli tried his best to avoid two arrows in a row, but the fat man in front of him charged straight over!

Such people, placed on the battlefield where the two armies are confronting each other, are not without means to deal with them.But right now, the two are facing each other head-to-head, fighting hand to hand, while one side is running for several miles, panting like a cow, the outcome is almost indisputable!
Ji Junli gritted his teeth and drew his sword in his hand, and shouted: "Come on slowly! I am the general under the command of Yang Dutong, the Tiewa Ganzhan Army. Whoever dares to ask..."

The big fat man is Monk Luo.Where is he interested in talking to Ji Junli?With a shake of the iron rod, Monk Luo knocked Ji Junli's long knife flying, and then the iron rod turned around and lightly knocked on his chest.

Monk Luo kept his strength, but the iron rod was too heavy.

More than a dozen nail leaves directly in front of Ji Junli's chest were bent at the same time, and sunken toward his chest and abdomen.Ji Junli only felt severe bone pain, as if the sternum was pressed into the chest cavity in one piece, squeezing the lungs flat.He grabbed his neck with both hands, and desperately raised his head to catch his breath. After a while, he collapsed on the ground, unable to struggle.

When Ji Junli fell down, all his troops panicked.They were killed by Monk Pei and others who jumped out from behind the embankment.

Li Ting, who had been fleeing ahead, had just rushed back, intending to participate in the counterattack.But he never thought that Monk Luo had already won.

He walked a few steps, noticed the scar on Ji Junli's face, and remembered that this person was the opponent of the previous fierce battle.

Seeing this person's miserable state, Li Ting's expression changed.Seeing that Monk Luo was holding the iron rod as if nothing had happened, he pondered for a while, and praised repeatedly: "Monk... oh no, no, Master Hui Feng is very skillful!"
