Chapter 99: Praise
The decoration of the carriage is too bright, whether it is the carvings on the outside or the colored veils draped on it, they all look extremely delicate.
This is in line with the aesthetics of the Qian people. In the pursuit of art and quality of life, the Qian people can be said to be the best among the four major Eastern countries.
The beautiful thin golden body of the contemporary Emperor Qian Guo has become the object of imitation by elegant people in Beijing and even across the country;
This is not simply for the sake of flattery or because the King of Chu is so meticulous. Waist, because Qianguo was against Shida Because of the preferential treatment given by their husbands, the literati often did not respect their "official families" very much, and they would not tarnish their names in order to invite favors and gain fortune. Therefore, this also means that contemporary Emperor Qian was indeed a master of calligraphy.
Just like the small red cars in later generations were mostly driven by female drivers, it is very likely that the people in this carriage are also female nobles.
When the barbarians rushed over and saw the carriage, they were all excited.
In fact, for them, the death of their comrades has long been a common occurrence. The criminal tribe in the desert is originally cannon fodder under the control of the larger tribe.
So, they will not be too sad about this. They also believe that sooner or later they will die in battle and will reunite with their dead companions at the end of the Ganges.
However, robbing women is undoubtedly a grand event for the barbarians in the desert!
Desert barbarians have always had the custom of snatching brides. This is just like other people's food being more delicious than one's own, and other people's wives seem to be more attractive.
In the eyes of the barbarians, bride snatching is a symbol of bravery and majesty and a guarantee of the prosperity of a tribe.
The fundamental reason is that the living environment in the desert is too harsh. Women in the desert are more like property than people.
To this day in the desert, there is a tradition of inheritance after the death of the father and the death of the son, and of the succession of the brother after the death of the brother. The inheritance here not only inherits the family property, but also inherits one's "mother" and "sister-in-law".
It was difficult for Zheng Fan to understand that the barbarians under his command were as happy as during the New Year. The reason why he chose to lead the team here was just to try his luck.
To be able to ride in such a luxurious carriage in the North, with so many guards, and without carrying any commercial goods, this must be a noble thing that no one needs to think about.
If I can take it down, I will have another hostage on hand.
"My Lord, you will lead a hundred people to hold down the formation, and your subordinates will lead the team to fly kites."
Zheng Fan actually did not want to be protected as a princess like this,
But he had no other choice. It was also very important to lead a group of troops to watch the wind and observe the surroundings. Don't let others make dumplings while you were making others.
At the same time, Zheng Fan also knew that if he was asked to lead his team to charge, he would basically do the same thing.
A wave of the saber, a
pose, and
a shout of " Ula",
start charging!
Therefore, Zheng Fan could only nod in agreement. In this world, there are two types of people who have to consciously stand aside when they are really doing things.
One is the incompetent person, the other is the leader,
Director Zheng has both.
"Oh!!!!!!"
Liang Cheng waved the long knife in his hand and started shouting.
The surrounding barbarian cavalry waved their sabers and responded to the call loudly.
This made Zheng Fan feel that there was a big difference between Liang Cheng at this time and Liang Cheng who led the troops before. Perhaps it was because the tactics were about to change.
Zheng Fan’s guess was correct.
After leaving one hundred horses for Zheng Fan, Liang Cheng led more than two hundred horses and rushed straight down towards the carriage.
The guards beside the carriage reacted immediately. This group of guards was obviously not simple. They did not collapse in the face of this sudden cavalry charge, and they quickly started preparing for battle around the carriage. Forget about setting up a bow and arrow, someone actually took the crossbow off his back!
This made Liang Cheng re-estimate the distance in his mind. When the distance between himself and the carriage shortened to a certain extent, Liang Cheng quickly raised his long knife and waved it in a circle.
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!!!!"
More than two hundred barbarian cavalry began to shout and quickly diverged, with the left turning left and the right turning right. He turned the corner and made a sudden U-turn in front of the carriage.
“Let go!”
At this time, it happened to be the time when the leader of the carriage guard ordered to release the arrow.
However, most of this wave of arrows and crossbows failed. Except for one barbarian cavalry who was a little unlucky and was shot in the leg of his war horse, causing him to fall off the horse, they basically did not have any real impact on the barbarian cavalry. sexual harm.
And after the turn, the barbarian cavalry on the left and right sides quickly moved forward, swept towards both sides of the carriage formation, and then began to draw their bows and arrows together.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!!!!!"
"Puff! Puff! Puff!"
A famous guard He was hit by an arrow and dismounted from his horse, and the guard team was in chaos for a while.
However, when the guard leader finally reorganized his men and began to fire arrows to counterattack, the barbarian cavalry on both sides turned just right to distance themselves. This was another round of arrows.
The next moment,
the barbarian cavalry came again, bows and arrows drawn, and many of the guards were hit by arrows and fell down again.
This is the most terrifying thing about the barbarian cavalry - riding and shooting!
My equestrian skills are better than yours, and my shooting skills are better than yours. If I don’t fight with you head-on, I will cut you to pieces with a soft knife, layer by layer, directly cutting you to pieces!
A hundred years ago, during the Western Expedition of the Barbarian Royal Court, the large iron cans of the knight legions of the Western countries died in a very aggrieved manner when faced with the barbarian cavalry's riding tactics of shooting and flying kites.
Zheng Fan knew that the reason why Liang Cheng chose to do this was to reduce the casualties on his side as much as possible.
These guards are indeed good, at least in terms of combat effectiveness and fighting will, they are much higher than the garrison soldiers in Mianzhou City last night.
But no matter how elite you are, you can't stand being shot by enemies while standing still.
So, after the leader of the guard looked back at the carriage, he left ten people to continue guarding the carriage, and he led the remaining people to ride horses and kill the barbarians on one side.
However, the barbarian soldiers still did not resist him head-on, nor did they engage in any charge duel. Seeing that they rushed out on their own initiative, the barbarian cavalry began to retreat actively.
The leader of the guard did not dare to pursue too far. When he saw that the other party should not attack, he could only order to slow down his horse and prepare to go back to protect the carriage. However, when he saw that the guards were about to turn back, the barbarian cavalry who had run away earlier were more worried. They turned their horses' heads faster and hoisted them over in a roundabout way, and at the same time they started shooting arrows.
For a time, more than a dozen guards were dismounted after being struck by arrows.
When the leader of the guard roared and prepared to pursue him again, the barbarian cavalry withdrew again.
On the high ground in the distance, the barbarian cavalry around Zheng Fan could only keep raising their arms and cheering because they could not fight. It could be seen that they were very excited.
Because for them, this kind of special skill, this kind of drama where they can kill their opponents with almost no casualties, has really not been seen for a long time.
Because the opponents are different, in the desert, internally, they are fighting within the tribe. If you can ride and shoot others, can't you?
Externally, they are facing the Zhenbei Army!
The equipment is better than them, the fighting will is better than them, the morale is better than them, the tactics are better than them, and the cavalry and shooting are not inferior to them at all.
This damn thing is not a war. , is despair!
Now I'm fine, I finally found the joy of eating food.
Zheng Fan reached out and rubbed his chin, sighing in his heart: This routine is really dirty.
The guard leader just watched helplessly as the people around him fell one by one, but he couldn't even touch the edge of the enemy.
The guard leader was so angry that he kept flashing green light.
Still a ninth-grade master.
In fact, there is nothing we can do about it. The border areas of Qian Country have been at peace for a hundred years. Although the rebellion of the southwest chieftains broke out in the past few years, those chieftains living in the mountains and valleys did not have any formations or cavalry tactics. They were just fighting. It has to be guerrilla warfare.
Since they stopped fighting with the Yan people, the Qian Kingdom has not tasted the heavy punch of the cavalry for a long time.
These guards are the servants of the house, and their quality is naturally very good, but they also have no experience in facing this kind of riding and shooting battle, so they can only be beaten to death like flying kites.
As for the ninth-grade master, it was even more miserable. After basically all his men were shot to death and the horse under his crotch was also shot to death, he kept going like a crazy lone wolf. Roaring and roaring, he was finally shot by arrows and turned into a hedgehog.
From beginning to end, as a ninth-grade warrior, he did not even hit the enemy with a single sword.
This scene couldn't help but remind Zheng Fan of the ending of Lao Mouzi's "Hero", where Jet Li was shot to death by thousands of arrows.
As for the other side, the barbarian cavalry rushed forward. This time they did not shoot any more arrows. Firstly, there were not many guards left near the carriage. Secondly, they were here to steal the bride. If you shoot the bride, He's dead, what a waste of time!
The few remaining guards failed to cause any trouble to the barbarians. Everyone swarmed up and surrounded and killed them.
Liang Cheng dismounted, climbed into the carriage, opened the curtain, and stuck his head in.
A sobbing face of a girl appeared in front of Liang Cheng. It was so touching that I felt pity for it.
"Please, please, don't hurt me..."
The girl cried and begged.
Liang Cheng raised his hand,
The girl looked at Liang Cheng with wide eyes,
Seeing that his hand was getting closer and closer to her,
The girl took a breath and slowly closed her eyes,
as if accepting her fate.
“Pa!”
The girl was slapped away by Liang Cheng.
“………” girl.
Without the obstruction of the girl,
the noble lady sitting in the carriage showed her true appearance in front of Liang Cheng.
In ancient times, women gave birth to children early, and their daughters were already so old, but this expensive The woman is in her thirties.
Liang Cheng’s mind immediately flashed to Siniang’s grace,
Although the woman in front of him was certainly not as graceful as Siniang,
But my master seems to have always preferred ladies.
Liang Cheng stretched out his hand and pointed at the lady.
"Don't hurt my mother, don't hurt my mother, you can do anything to me, but please, don't hurt me..."
The girl got up and hugged her Liang Cheng's hand.
Then,
"Bang!"
The girl was knocked over in the carriage again, rolled her eyes, and fainted in the intense shock and confusion.
Liang Cheng glanced at the girl,
When he was in the Hutou City mansion before, there were so many young ladies, but his master didn’t even touch a finger. This proves that his master The little girl above is not interested in loli.
Liang Cheng’s hand pointed at the lady again,
The lady grabbed a dagger and put it at her neck,
said sternly:
“I would rather die than let you stain my innocence!”
Liang Cheng was not at all shocked or panicked by this.
In fact, he is a zombie, and his normal behavior is to be cold to others. If it were not for the purpose of regaining his strength, he would have even killed Zheng Fan. Not a bird.
When the noble lady expressed her will to die,
Liang Cheng just pointed at the unconscious girl and said:
"You die, instead of her being ruined by these barbarians. "
When the lady heard this, her hands began to tremble with anger,
Looking at his daughter,
he couldn't help but put down the dagger in his hand,
and cursed Liang Cheng:
"You are a devil, a shameless devil!"
Liang Cheng nodded,
Said:
"Absolute praise." (End of this chapter)
