Datang: From exiled prince to eternal tyrant

Chapter 90 Outpost Watchtower

On the second day, at three o'clock at three o'clock, Li Ke had already touched the vicinity of the watchtower.

The army didn't leave until around noon, but Li Ke had to get here as soon as possible. He had to remove the watchtower first, and then ordered the army to move out.

He didn't want the observation tower to discover his movements and spread the news to the city, causing Anshi City to take precautions in advance.

At this moment, he and a killer team are lying on the small slope around the observation tower, checking the situation inside the observation tower.

This assassin team was exactly the team he had arranged to assassinate the eighteen Guanlong officials. There were ten people in total, and the leader was a rather tall young man named Gu Wu.

Li Ke planned to use himself and this killer team to pull out the watchtower.

At this time, too many people may not be effective. The observation deck has a wide field of vision. If you bring too many people over, it is easy to expose your appearance, and special forces can come in handy at this time.

"Your Highness, there is a burning tower on the watchtower, it seems that it is used to deliver news!"

Gu Wu pointed at the watchtower at this time, his eagle-like eyes were staring at the three sentinels on the high platform.

Li Ke followed his line of sight and looked over. The observation tower was about five feet high, with sentries on it looking in all directions.

And under this high platform, there are two small wooden houses, which can be regarded as the defensive position of this observation tower.

If you want to climb the high platform, you have to get close to the wooden house, but there are soldiers guarding the wooden house, how can you get close so easily?
And once you fight with the soldiers in the wooden house below, you will definitely be able to alert the sentinels above.

At that time, the sentry will definitely light the beacon and notify Anshicheng not far away.

"It seems... we have to get rid of those sentries first!"

Li Ke has already pulled out the crossbow, and this distance has reached the range of the crossbow.

"Listen to me, we must get rid of the sentinels first, and we can't let them let out smoke!"

Li Ke ordered the killer team to shoot the sentry with a bow and crossbow first, and then rush to the cabin to prevent the people below from climbing up again, and let off smoke to notify An Shicheng.

All the killers also took out bows and crossbows. These people were carefully trained and killing people from a distance was not a problem.

Li Ke aimed at the sentinel above, and shouted the password: "Three counts, one... two... three, do it!"

As soon as the words fell, he pulled the trigger, and the crossbow shot a sharp arrow straight towards the sentinel on the high platform.

The surrounding killers also took action. At this time, they would rather shoot a few more arrows than let a single sentry survive.

As long as one sentinel survives and passes on the message, it will be troublesome.

Li Ke's arrow hit a sentry in the throat, and the sentry froze and fell straight down.

Gu Wu also shot one, and that person was shot in the head and turned to the side, it seemed that he would not survive.

But the other killers failed to kill the remaining Sentinel. They only shot the Sentinel in the shoulder and chest, and the Sentinel was struggling and still moving.

"Not good! Don't let him light a cigarette!"

Seeing that the sentinel seemed to be taking something out of his arms and lighting something in the burning cigarette stand, Li Ke's heart tightened.

He hastened to shoot a second arrow.

At this time, the fallen sentry had alerted the soldiers in the cabin. They had gotten out of the cabin and were checking on the man's condition.

"who?"

In the soldier squad, there was a man who looked like a captain who was shouting and asking questions in all directions.

But Li Ke and others hid it very well and have not yet exposed it.

At this moment, the second sharp arrow was flying at high speed, heading towards the sentinel who was smoldering. The target of this arrow was still the enemy's throat.

But the sentry was already alert at this time, he quickly dodged, turned his body to one side, and dodged it.

Li Ke felt bad, so he hurriedly aimed again, and at this moment, Gu Wu's arrow had already shot at the sentinel.

"call out!"

Gu Wu's arrow was fired, and the sentinel had already looked towards this side. Obviously, he had analyzed the position of Li Ke and the others from the direction of the arrow's firing.

The sentinel was about to dodge sideways at this moment, seeing that Gu Wu's arrow could not hit.

And he was still lighting the burning Yantai in his hand, and he was about to ignite the smoke.

At this moment, Li Ke made a decisive decision. Instead of shooting at the sentry's existing body, he estimated the opponent's movement in his mind, calculating the position of the opponent's body after dodging Gu Wu's arrow.

He quickly adjusted his direction, and soon, he pulled the trigger again.

This time, the sharp arrow pierced the sky and flew over with infinite sharpness.

"bass!"

The arrow hit the target, and the sentry immediately fell down, clutching his throat.

Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief. The three sentries were all dead, and they were unable to deliver news for a short time.

Now, it's the turn of the soldiers below.

"None of these people can survive!"

Li Ke quickly ordered Gu Wu to stay behind and stare at the watchtower to prevent anyone from climbing up to the watchtower again.

And Li Ke took the remaining killers to deal with the people in the cabin.

He drew out his short knife, began to change positions, and groped towards the cabin.

At this time, the soldiers below were also coming towards them. Although they didn't know the exact location of Li Ke, they could still roughly calculate the direction based on the direction of the sharp arrow.

But Li Ke and others have a crossbow that can fire continuously. This kind of crossbow can show the greatest lethality when dealing with multiple targets.

These people were searching near the slope with long spears and daggers, but at this moment, another wave of sharp arrows came from nowhere, killing several of their brothers again.

And the direction of the arrow has changed, and it is closer to their wooden outpost.

The soldiers had no choice but to look back, but the location of Li Ke and others was still unclear.

But the sharp arrows shot out again and again, resulting in the lives of several people.

Everyone was frightened and uncertain, knowing that they had hit a hard point.

"Go back to the post!"

A leader shouted that they can only ensure their own safety now.

But in reality, they couldn't do what they wished, and arrows shot from hidden places one after another, killing and injuring the soldiers' lives.

So far, these soldiers have not even seen a trace of the enemy, but they have lost nearly half of their troops.

Finally, under the condition of continuous attrition, these people shrank back to the cabin with fear.

At this time, there were only a dozen people left in the entire army.

But what awaits them is definitely not the rest of their lives, but a more brutal massacre.

At this moment, Li Ke had already touched him while he was in the middle of the chaos. He suddenly jumped up and jumped out with a short knife in his hand.

Although in order to hide, he didn't use any handy weapons, but he didn't need Fang Tian Hua Ji to deal with such a few people.

While waving the dagger, none of the dozen or so soldiers remained, and all of them were silenced.

At this time, a squad of elite soldiers guarding the watchtower had all been killed by Li Ke.

"The army set off one after another, and rushed to the city of Anshi as soon as possible!"

Li Ke quickly ordered the deployment of troops, and he wanted to kill them as quickly as possible and raid Anshi City.
