45. Chapter 45 All Staff Preparedness

Following the issuance of the military order, the entire Crouching Tiger Pavilion was in a state of combat readiness. At this time, in the lobby of Wushouju, more than 100 young men stood neatly in line under the leadership of the shopkeeper Fatty Cao, quietly waiting for Xiao Yi's order. They have high fighting spirit, and although their shoulders are immature, they are not weak. They are like a group of young wolves waiting to fight for the first time in their lives. As long as they are led by a brave and wise wolf, they dare to fight with any beast. Here, Xiao Yi is their alpha wolf!

Their 'head wolf' lord was sitting upright in the hall at this time, with his eyes slightly closed, as if he was holding a wisdom pearl!It seems that he doesn't care about the upcoming battle..., I know about my own affairs, but Xiao Yi's mind is in a state of confusion right now, "War? I never thought that my brother was born under the red flag and grew up in a peaceful age. In the scariest dream I've ever had, Xiao Yi never dreamed that he would go to the battlefield one day, let alone command others to fight."

Military Academy?Not even a day!

Soldier?Not even a day!

Art of war?Didn't even turn a page!

How can we fight this battle? ... Don't think that after playing "Three Kingdoms" for a few days, you can command and fight wars. War is not a game, but a business of killing people.

Xiao Yi felt that he was a second-class citizen of the time-traveling clan. Looking at the other time-travelers, they either became emperors or princes, and the worst ones could also become a rich second generation. It’s amazing, either you have a cheating device like a strange space with you, or there is an omniscient thousand-year-old ghost accompanying you, pointing out the direction of progress, everyone is wise and powerful, with great luck, predicts the enemy like a god, and kills Quartet, and the enemy's IQ is basically negative. Just blowing their breath, they can wipe out historical celebrities one by one. The concubine does not hesitate...

Look at yourself again, a flash of lightning, almost naked through time travel, with no cheats, supernatural powers, etc., was bitten by a wolf when he first arrived, almost died, and time traveled back, everyone else The smooth sailing yellow robe is added to the body, and I have been fooling around for more than two years, and I still wear a Taoist robe. I finally saved some family property, and I caught up with the war again!Why!Youyou heaven, treat me so poorly!

Self-pity is over, and the reality has to be faced, so many people's wealth and lives are on me, I must not let down this trust, I have no one to rely on, only self-improvement!Opening his eyes suddenly, Xiao Yi's eyes revealed the kind of black light that could devour everything again. This is a typical Gemini character. When gentle, calm as water, when brave, like a beast!

"Go all out, fight a war? To put it bluntly, isn't it just a gang fight with a little more people! I have never eaten pork, but I have seen a lot of pigs running!" Xiao Yi recalled the countless bloody war movies he had watched before, hoping to learn from them. Learn a little experience, everything depends on human effort, no one is born to fight, Mao Taizu, an old man, can conquer all battles with a copy of "Sun Tzu's Art of War", and he has seen countless classic battles, "Because we cherish peace , so we look back at the war..."

Which one is suitable for the current situation? "Tunnel Warfare"?I'm afraid it's too late to dig! "Mine Wars"?No gunpowder! "The Attack on Pearl Harbor"?There is no gunpowder, let alone an airplane..., "Battle of Moscow"! ! !It's him, at worst, he will be burned to the ground!

"Daniu, go to the blacksmith's shop first and try to get some handy weapons for the brothers!" After regaining his composure, Xiao Yi decisively began to issue orders.

"Promise!" Without hesitation, Daniel immediately ran home with a few of his assistants. After getting along with him for a long time, he had [-]% trust in Xiao Yi.

"Ma Liu, you are responsible for collecting all the war horses in the pavilion. In addition, among the nearby caravans that have not evacuated, as long as there are horses for sale, they will all buy them, regardless of the price!"

"No!" Ma Liu immediately left with a few of his fellows, saying Xiang Ma, no one here is more familiar than him.

"Shopkeeper Cao, you take 30 staff to distill all the Wushou wine in our storehouse twice, then transport it all to the town wall, and send someone to guard it, so that there will be no mistakes!" Xiao Yi knows that now Wuchou The alcohol content of the wine is about 40-60. Although the production process is still crude due to the constraints of the conditions, it can be purified to more than 60 degrees after two more distillations. The wine of [-] degrees is not just wine, but It's a high-explosive incendiary bomb!

"No!" Although Fatty Cao didn't understand Xiao Yi's order [-]%, "There is going to be a war, why are you still busy purifying spirits?" But remembering Liang Wanwan's repeated instructions, he still [-]% agreed To carry out this order.

The remaining people, divided into groups of six, patrolled day and night, and sent guards to all the commanding heights on the surrounding mountains. Once the traces of the Huns were found, smoke during the day and fire at night, there must be no mistakes!In the end, Xiao Yi's slightly dark face was already full of murderous looks, and it seemed that there was nothing terrible about fighting!

"No!..." All the guys responded in unison, they will be the courage of the soldiers!This has been the case since ancient times, as long as the superiors are not afraid, then the subordinates will never be timid!

..............................

The entire Crouching Tiger Pavilion has become a large barracks. The sound of knocking in the blacksmith shop has never stopped day and night. Even the weak women and children are busy making dry food and moving bricks and stones. Saddle, even sleeping with one eye open; but the Huns did not come for a while, but Xiao Yi met the biggest enemy in his life, the "Mr. Zimu" with a pair of peach blossom eyes! '

It turned out that the old pavilion chief was worried that the Huns would have a large group to attack. For safety reasons, he planned to retreat the old and weak women and children to the south bank of the Panlong River through the wooden bridge if the Crouching Tiger Pavilion could not be defended. Mr. Zimu came to discuss, the two pavilions have been neighbors for hundreds of years, and they are both descendants of the army. They should have watched and helped each other. The meeting of the old enemy is both a coincidence and an arrangement of fate.

Some people will fall in love at first sight, while others will be the opposite, enemies at first sight!Now Xiao Yi and Mr. Zimu both felt this way. Two people who had never met each other, when they saw each other for the first time, they felt as if they had met their old enemy in life.

"Your Excellency is Xiao Lang who has brewed 'Wuyou Wine' and created a huge family fortune in a short period of time?" Greedy eyes flashed in Shuju's eyes!

"Don't dare, it's just a little bit of food and clothing, nothing to worry about, you are Mr. Zimu who shocked the 'Panlong Pavilion', right?" Xiao Yi dressed in black was as deep as water, his eyes were like a black hole devouring everything, and his eyes were full of vigilance , The other party gave him a very uncomfortable feeling. The last time he felt this way was when he met the black wolf king by the river. It was dangerous, very dangerous!

"The Xiongnu invaded the south, and I hope you be careful. If something unexpected happens, you can cross the river and come to attach. I, Panlongting, will never 'watch the fire from the other side'!" Mr. Zimu's words seemed kind, but the word "attachment" was big Contains deep meaning, as for the word "watching the fire from the other side" is a kind of naked coercion.

"Hehe! Thank you very much. My Crouching Tiger Pavilion is as solid as a fortress!" Xiao Yi continued without showing any weakness: "Please remember, my lord, we live here without worries. When friends come, we have good wine, and when wolves come, we have hunting forks!"

Hehe, goodbye!

Do not send!

There is no unnecessary nonsense, both of them are extremely intelligent people, and they understand from the eyes of each other that it is impossible for us to be friends, it will only be a fight between dragons and tigers!It will only be your life and death!

Back in the Panlong Pavilion, Mr. Zimu, who had changed into a pink shirt, lay on his side on the soft sleeper and began to sip a glass of 'Worryless Wine'. Now he likes the taste of this wine more and more, even more so. I can't wait to swallow all this 'wine'.

The confidant 'Big Intestine Steward' asked with a puzzled face, "Young Master, will the Huns come? Are we really going to help the Crouching Tiger Pavilion guard their way out?"

Mr. Zimu smiled slightly, and his pink face was inadvertently charming: "The Huns will definitely come, forget that some time ago, our family's caravan secretly smuggled a batch of iron and spirits to the grassland? I The caravan was specially asked to publicize that the spirits are produced by the Crouching Tiger Pavilion. The wild wolf smelled blood, so how could it not come...

"As for the final retreat of the Crouching Tiger Pavilion? Ha! Ha! Ha!......"

Looking at the master who was smiling like a peach blossom in front of him, the "pig Dachang", who was usually considered ruthless, couldn't help but take a half step back, as if what was in front of him was not a handsome young man, but a poisonous snake that would choose someone to bite at any time... …

46. ​​Chapter 46 The Wolf Is Coming (Please recommend a ticket)

The scary thing about a wolf is not when you meet it, but when it is about to come but doesn’t come, but it may appear at any time. The terrifying atmosphere suppresses all the residents of Crouching Tiger Pavilion. The blacksmith shop in the town makes soldiers The hammering sound of the blade didn't stop all night, and the hammering sound seemed to hit everyone's heart, tense and dignified!I don't know how many people couldn't sleep that night. War is what humans fear most. Man-made disasters are always greater than natural disasters!

The damaged town walls around were being repaired urgently, and a large number of bricks, tiles, and stones were moved to the walls. In order to survive, everyone broke out with great strength; Set up patrol posts in the mountains and forests about [-] to [-] miles to the north. It is the only way to come to Crouching Tiger Pavilion, because this task is very dangerous, and there is a possibility of encountering the outpost rangers of the Huns at any time, so this job is done by Crouching Tiger Pavilion Zhang Ji, Xiao Yi, Daniu, and Ma Liu, who had the best riding and archery skills in the village, were appointed.

In the morning, Xiao Yi got up very early and put on a cowhide armor given by a cobbler. After two layers of thick cowhide were tanned, they were tightly fixed with copper nails, and the outside was coated with a thick layer of black lacquer, which was strong It is also moisture-proof, and the key positions of the front and rear heart are also inlaid with bronze mirrors, which has strong protection and does not affect the flexibility of the arms.Then put on the 'Chi You Ghost Mask', the mask made of pure iron can not only be used for Nuo dance, but also a very good facial defense equipment, bring bows and arrows, weapons and big cows, and Ma Liu followed the cobbler Zhang Ji went to inspect the distance. The atmosphere before the war made the three young people sleep badly. They all had dark circles under their eyes. They looked like three 'national treasures'!

Fifty miles away, a fast horse can arrive in half an hour. This mountain has lush vegetation and wild animals often appear. It was originally the best hunting place for everyone to hunt in their spare time, but the peaceful and peaceful forest in the past has changed in the eyes of everyone. Every forest bird that flies by, or a rabbit that is startled by the sound of horseshoes, can make them raise their bows and arrows nervously, that kind of feeling that they hope to meet the enemy, but are afraid of meeting the enemy. Ambivalence, depressed people can't breathe...

One day, two days, three days passed, and the four of them patrolled every corner of the vicinity without missing any clues. The mountains and forests were still peaceful, and the traces of the Huns seemed to be far away, but the atmosphere of the battle was even more intense. Stronger and more torturous.Daniu and Ma Liu were already visibly restless, and even shot out the arrows in their hands several times when they heard a little movement, but what they shot was only a small animal running in the forest. Even though he was calm, he just wiped the phoenix wings in his hands over and over again. Only in this way can he relieve the pressure in his heart. On the contrary, Zhang Ji, the cobbler, still looks cold, as if he has long been accustomed to the atmosphere before the battle It's obvious that this is a man who has been on the battlefield and killed people!

The so-called sudden encounter is a meeting when both sides are unprepared. At this time, the competition is all about reflexes and determination on the battlefield. Whoever has quick eyesight, quick hands, and ruthless heart will have the upper hand!

At noon three days later, there was still no trace of the Huns. The team of four who had been patrolling for a long time breathed a sigh of relief. When they were about to dismount and rest for a while, suddenly a group of birds flew out from the distant woods, flapping in panic. Winged, as if frightened by something, the cobbler Zhang Ji immediately raised his hand to signal everyone to hide in the shade of the trees and not to move. His eyes kept scanning the surrounding woods, and at the same time he listened attentively. In the mountains and forests, sometimes ears are more important than eyes...

"Da! Da! Da!" With the faint sound of horseshoes, a group of cavalry emerged from the woods. They were all fat and sturdy Hun horses. On the horses were five short and strong men in leather armor. , thick neck...

Before the three of Xiao Yi could fully see each other's appearance, Zhang Ji, the cobbler next to him, quickly drew out the 5-stone black bow and shot it out. With the sound of the bowstring, a cavalryman of the opponent fell off his horse. Only then did I hear the roar of the cobbler: "It's the scouting rangers of the Huns, kill them all!"

Xiao Yi reacted immediately, quickly drew his bow and set up an arrow to aim at the neck of a Hun soldier, and shot it away. The spiked arrow hit the target quickly with the sound of piercing through the air, and with Xiao Yi's eyesight, he could even see it clearly. The blood sprayed from the enemy's neck, the first time he saw blood, not only did not give him the slightest feeling of fear, but bursts of excitement surged from his heart, as if a bloodthirsty demon had been awakened in his body.

Daniu and Ma Liu also came to their senses at this time, bowed their bows and set up arrows, and shot and killed two people in succession in a short while. The last Hun soldier was obviously experienced, and he found a tree to cover him as soon as he encountered the attack just now. At this time, seeing his companions being shot and killed one after another, he didn't care about fighting, and hurriedly rode his horse and galloped back.

"You can't let him go, chase him!" The cobbler roared, and he was the first to chase after him. The crowd immediately rode their horses to follow, and they were no longer afraid after seeing the blood.

The horses of the Huns are obviously more sophisticated, they are far from comparable to the horses of cobblers and others, and the pursuit distance is constantly increasing. Neighing like a dragon, he sped up suddenly, and chased after him like an arrow leaving the string, and he was close to the target in a short while; the Huns who were running desperately were obviously surprised when they heard the sound of horseshoes quickly approaching behind them, but Years of experience in fighting made him react immediately, drew his bow and set an arrow, leaned his body back, and shot out, the sound of gongs pierced the sky, and came straight to Xiao Yi's face; he had cooperated with 'Cabbage' a long time ago Xiao Yi's seamless movements were as light as an ape's, and he dodged with a slight sideways movement. At the same time, he took off his phoenix wings and gilded them from the hook on the side of the saddle.

The speed was unparalleled. The moment the 'Cabbage' rushed past the Huns, the cold boring blade swept past, and a frightened head flew to the sky immediately. The blood in the cavity flew out, and some It landed on Xiao Yi's face, making that 'Chi You ghost face' look even more hideous and terrifying. The headless corpse ran for another ten meters on horseback before crashing to the ground...

The three cobblers also arrived at this time, and Daniel and Ma Liu were paled by the bloody scene in front of them. After all, killing people with bows and arrows from a long distance and fighting in close quarters are two different things. The latter is far more cruel than the former. As a rookie on the battlefield for the first time, he didn’t retreat timidly, and he didn’t vomit endlessly due to the smell of blood. It’s already considered a good performance. There are also many recruits who pee their pants in fright when they see blood in battle. After all, not every People are born cold-blooded killers!

As for Xiao Yi, the cobbler looked at the blood-stained 'Chi You Ghost Face' and nodded slightly. His vision was correct. Deep in the heart of this young man who always showed two dimples when he smiled, there was a bloodthirsty demon sleeping deep inside. What I have to do now is to completely wake up this demon.

Jumping off the horse, the cobbler began to inspect the headless corpse. The key parts of the leather armor on the body were covered with iron plates, which were obviously better than those of the Huns in front. All iron arrows.

The cobbler's gloomy face immediately became serious, and he explained to the three new recruits on the battlefield: "The Huns' smelting technology is backward, and there is a shortage of ironware and casting masters. Most soldiers still use bronze arrowheads that have long been eliminated in the Central Plains. , and even bone arrowheads ground from animal bones, only leaders above a centurion can use pure iron arrowheads; and being able to send a centurion as a ranger means that there are at least [-] soldiers behind them. A thousand-man cavalry of the Huns."

After listening to the cobbler's analysis, the faces of Xiao Yi and the three of them changed color at the same time. The enemy situation was unexpectedly serious. A thousand elite Hun cavalry were definitely not something the hundreds of old and weak at Crouching Tiger Pavilion could deal with. They had to evacuate to the south bank of the river immediately. .

"Drag all the dead bodies into the woods and hide them. Cover all the bloodstains with sand and gather their horses. It is estimated that their large force will be killed in a short time. We will report back immediately," the cobbler ordered resolutely.

A wave of wolf smoke rose rapidly in the forest, the wolf finally came...
