Archery of Gongshou Rivers and Mountains

Wan Yankang was very apprehensive when he left Lin'an, not because he was afraid that he would not be able to bring him back within ten days, but because he was apprehensive about what would be waiting for him when he returned, and he would sleep with one eye open.

Originally, Huang Rong also wanted to go with him this time, but the little girl really wanted to help—since Wan Yankang told her about war last time, Huang Rong's understanding of war and heroes has completely lost her daughter The little pink feelings of home.But thinking about it with his nose, he knew that Huang Laoxie would not let his daughter go, and staying in Lin'an was already his biggest compromise.Otherwise, maybe there will be a change from a loving father to a strict father, and Huang Rong will be tied back to Peach Blossom Island.

However, when Wan Yankang received the information from Southern Song Dynasty, he was surprised.The Mongolian mission came from Xixia, and had entered the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty for a while, but now they went to Shaoxing Mansion in the southeast of Lin'an.After thinking about it for a while, he thought that the Southern Song court deliberately came here, but he didn't expect that he was only half right, and most of the credit here still fell on the common people.

The leaders of the Mongolian mission were Jebe and Tuolei, both of whom were heroes for a while, but after all, they were only Mongolians at this time.It’s not discrimination, the Mongols do have many excellent customs, such as being warm, respecting the old and loving the young—the premise is that they treat you as a human being, not a slave or a person who should be conquered.

The Mongols in this era seldom took a bath, so they naturally smelled bad.This is true of most nomads, after all, water is precious, and they have long lived with cattle and horses.In addition to being unkempt and wearing an exotic sharp blade, even the most disrespectful person, when seeing such a group of people coming towards him, the first feeling is that he has encountered a strong person.

But with Tuolei and Jebe themselves, as well as the pride of their own nation, even if they realize that the Song people are hostile and fearful because of their appearance, they will never change their own national habits because of this. There are also reasons for religious beliefs, so it is even more impossible to change.

However, the Southern Song court was not interested in forming alliances at the beginning, and later regarded them as a big gift, so it only gave them a guide, and did not send officials to escort them all the way to Lin'an, but let them come to Lin'an by themselves.Of course, this is in the open, secretly keeping an eye on the movement of this small group of people.

It is conceivable what the Mongolian mission, who was unfamiliar with the place, encountered along the way. The kindest hostility was nothing more than ordinary people deliberately pointing them to the wrong way. It was already a miracle that they could get to Shaoxing.

As a result, at noon two days later, Wanyan Kang found the group of Mongolian envoys in a ruined temple.Tuo Lei and Jebe heard the sound of horses' hooves, and immediately ran out of the ruined temple with their people.It’s not long since I arrived in the Southern Song Dynasty, but a few people know that there is a lack of horses in the Southern Song Dynasty, and even mules are rare. The most seen on the official roads are donkeys. Even if there are carts, they are mostly pulled by oxen—including large The carriages of most officials—a cavalry team of about ten people—are also extremely rare and unusual.

But as soon as a few people rushed out, they heard the screams of "Herod" war horses, and saw that the three horses they tied outside the ruined temple were pierced with iron arrows emitting black smoke, and fell to the ground. The arrow's horse also neighed.The crowd hurried to the horses before they could see who had attacked them.But they didn't want to wait for them to take a step, the sound of piercing the sky came again, this time it was not the horse that fell down, but the two Mongolian soldiers standing in front of the horse, they were sentry people outside, and they were also closest to the horse .

The two fought for the others, but they bought time for the others. Tuo Lei and Jebe stepped onto the horses first, but just as they got on the horses, everyone felt dizzy, and several Mongolian soldiers fell off the horses in a daze. When he got down, Jebe couldn't aim his bow and arrow because of the bursts of blackness in front of his eyes!

When Wanyan Kang led the people to the ruined temple, besides the dead bodies of two people and three horses, four or five horses were wandering around their fallen master.

"Kill it." Without stopping at all, and without further words, Wanyan Kang just gave a low order, and continued to chase. Behind him, a person was immediately separated from the team, brandishing a saber, and took The heads of those unconscious Mongols were taken down.

Wrap the bloody heads with coats, put away their sabers, and tie the reins of several groups of Mongolian horses behind the saddles of their mounts, and the knights who were assigned to beheaded immediately set off to chase after Yan Kang. .

Jebe and Tuo Lei are running all the way on horseback now, they cut their own thighs in time to maintain consciousness, they naturally guessed that there was something wrong with the black smoke from the arrow that was shot, and at first the two People thought it was ordinary smoke, but putting water on the head didn't help at all. Instead, it made me feel more sick, and my nose felt hot. When I touched it, it was bloody.

Wanyan Kang had already caught up, but he was hesitating whether to catch him alive or kill him altogether.If it was caught alive, Wanyan Kang didn't use it to humiliate and vent, but thought of exchanging the two of them from the Mongols for the slaves of the Han and Jin people.If they were killed, two Mongolian generals would be missing, and fewer people would die. Besides, Wanyankang remembered that Bo'er Jijin Kublai Khan was the son of Tuolei!

But now, it seems that Kublai Khan was not born yet, killing Tuolei not only killed a general and prince in Mongolia, but also killed Yuan Shizu.

Thinking of this, without hesitation, Wanyan Kang took out two arrows from the quiver and put them on the bow. From the perspective of others, he didn't even take the time to aim, and the two arrows had already been shot.The sharp arrow was as fast as lightning, who would have thought that a red horse rushed out from the slanting stab, and the horse and the person on the horse were actually more than double arrows.

The visitor forcibly chopped down a pair of arrows in the middle, and hit the horse's buttocks with some unknown means. Tuo Lei and Zhebel's horses neighed and galloped away.

Wan Yankang did not catch up immediately, but stopped his horse and looked at the person blocking the way: "Guo Jing, I thought you understood."

"This is not a battlefield."

"When they rob, rape, and torture, they are on the battlefield." Wanyan Kang is not in a hurry, this kind of poison that can burn and has a quick effect is the weakest poison among the poisons Ouyang Ke gave him. But it is the most insidious.It is true that it is not poisonous to death, but it will not take long for the two people to become deaf, blind, and dumb. They cannot escape, and even if they escape, it is just two more beggars in the Southern Song Dynasty.

"I..." I understood it in my heart when nothing happened, and it was completely different from my own reaction after encountering it.Just like now, he knows that Tuo Lei and Jebe are "villains", but one of them is his childhood sweetheart Anda, and the other is his master who taught him martial arts and took care of his mother and child.After all, he had never seen them do evil, once he saw the two of them being chased and killed, how could he remain indifferent?

In fact, the current situation of Guo Jing and Wanyan Kang is similar to that of Guo Jing and Yang Kang in the original book, but it is just the other way around.

"Guo Jing..." Wan Yankang sighed, even now, Guo Jing still didn't understand, it stands to reason that he was benevolent enough to kill Guo Jing.However, there is still Rong'er waiting, "I still want to catch them, but I will save their lives, on the condition that you follow me back to the central capital and go to the battlefield. Decide whether to continue to follow me or go back to Mongolia."

Wan Yankang's method is also simple, it is the method he and Huang Rong Ouyang Ke said to deal with recruits.I have seen how the Mongols abused people, and if there is no hatred, there will be hatred.

Guo Jing hesitated for a moment, then nodded.So together with Wanyan Kang, they chase Tuo Lei and Zhebie away.

Since it is to catch alive, Wanyan Kang's arrows are not easy to shoot. If you want to shoot a horse, you can only shoot at the horse's buttocks, but when you shoot a person... Both of them are already paralyzed on the horse. never mind.

Seeing that they were about to rush to the two of them, suddenly a rabbit jumped out from the side of the road, followed by a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old.It would be fine for the boy to chase the rabbit all the way there, but after he rushed out, he found several fast horses galloping along the road, so he froze there.

It was too late to rein in the two horses at this time, and Wanyan Kang didn't care about the horses at this time, he kicked the horse's belly with his heel, and his mount jumped out of the horse in an instant, obliquely blocking the other two before the horse.At the same time, Wanyan Kang jumped down from the horse, hugged the young man in his arms, and rolled him all the way to the side of the road.

However, Wanyan Kang's mount collided with the other two horses, and there was a miserable hiss in an instant, and after a burst of dust, all three horses fell to the ground.

Wan Yankang put the young man down, and knelt down beside his horse. Although it was not the horse he rode back from Shaanxi to fight with him in the north and south, it was just a horse he took out from the mansion after he left Zhongdu. The horse—he was afraid that his mount would not like the water and soil, and would have diarrhea in the south—but it was also his companion for a while.

However, although the horse is not dead now, it is already dead: "I'm sorry." Touching the big maroon eyes that looked at him, the horse shed tears like a psychic.Wan Yankang bit his lip and remained silent, stood up and drew out his waist knife to stab the horse's heart!The black horse twitched its four hooves twice, then stopped moving, and the brilliance in its big eyes completely disappeared...

"Thank you for saving my life, my son. This is Zhao Yuju. This is my younger brother Zhao Yurui. My home is not far away. Please leave your surname and address. I will take care of myself in the future..."

"No need. It was because we were galloping on horses and nearly killed the little brother. The two of you are very concerned." Wanyan Kang didn't care about this plainly dressed man with a basket on his back, and there was a clear smell of fish from the basket smelly boy.He just waved his hand at him, "I just don't know if it's convenient, sir, please help me look after this horse. I'll bury him when I come back later."

"Naturally." Zhao and Ju agreed, and Wanyankang was a little surprised at this moment. How come the young fish catchers seen in this place are still so gentle?

He didn't know that although Lizong, the next emperor after Zhao Kuo of Ningzong of the Southern Song Dynasty, was named Zhao Yun and Guicheng, his earliest ancestor was that of Zhao Yuju...
