Tibet

Li Ye jumped up and rushed to the window. He saw groups of black figures on horseback gathering in the distance. It looked like there were two to three hundred people.

It's Tuoba Changshun, it must be him. Only his tribe has so many people! Zhang Xiaohuan was so frightened that he almost cried.

Is it a tribe, not a horse bandit? Li Ye asked thoughtfully.

It's the same thing! They are Dangxiang people. Their tribe is in the northernmost part of Huizhou. They are herdsmen when there is no business. When they have fat sheep, they turn into horse bandits.

If Li Ye realizes that he is not a fat sheep, why are they still here? In all likelihood, it was Yang Jian who revealed the reward offered by Xue Bu.

They are coming! Black Spear said in a deep voice.

Li Ye immediately said: You and Zhang Xiaohuan go to the first floor to block the door. I will go upstairs to deal with them with bows and arrows!

Regardless of whether Zhang Xiaohuan wanted it or not, the black spear took his arm and dragged him down. In order to prevent wolves, the caravan replaced the gate. It was very thick and strong. There were no windows on the first floor, and the entire fort was made of big stones. Extraordinarily strong.

Therefore, there are only two ways to attack the fort, either to use a bumper to knock the gate open, or to climb to the top and attack from the top down.

The door had two thick bolts, and Black Spear used his mace to insert it as a third bolt.

He held an elephant trunk knife in his hand and stared at the movement outside through the crack of the door. Once the horse bandits broke through the wooden door, he would swing the knife to kill them.

Li Ye used a long stick to push open the wooden cover on the third floor. He grabbed the broken wooden ladder handrail and climbed up. He threw the weapon up first, and finally jumped up to grab the edge and climbed up with all his strength.

There was a thick layer of dust on the top of the third floor. Li Ye ran to the edge with a bow and arrow in his hand, carrying three pots of arrows behind him.

Torches were lit below, and hundreds of torches gathered into a fire pit. Li Ye observed for a moment, but couldn't find their leader, so he simply drew his bow and shot quickly. More than a dozen arrows shot down like a volley of arrows. Each arrow shot down, One person must scream and fall off his horse. The torch falls to the ground and is extinguished. In an instant, a dozen people are hit by arrows and fall off their horse. They are all killed by one arrow, and there are screams.

The horse bandits reacted and raised their bows together to shoot at the top of the third floor. Li Ye rolled forward and reached the other side. Turning on his side, another seven or eight arrows shot down, killing seven or eight people.

Seizing the opportunity when the opponent has no arrows to hit, he suddenly appears and shoots five arrows in one breath.

The more than twenty people crowded at the door were all killed by Li Ye's vicious arrows. Tuoba Changshun, who was watching the battle from a distance, frowned and ordered: Blow the trumpet and pull back!

Woo-- The antlers horn sounded, and the other dozens of horse bandits turned around and retreated.

Tuoba Changshun was about forty years old and was the chief of the Party Headquarters in Huizhou. When he was young, he worked as a horse bandit in the Hexi Corridor for more than ten years and accumulated a lot of wealth. After returning to his hometown in glory, he won over his tribe and was favored by the tribesmen. Become the new patriarch.

Five years after Tianbao, the Tang Dynasty abolished a large number of military cities and forts due to financial difficulties. This fort in the northwest of Huizhou was also abolished, and the Huizhou garrison was reduced by 70%.

Tuoba Changshun saw an opportunity and once again led his tribe to return to their old ways, transforming into horse bandits and plundering caravans and lone travelers.

Tuoba Changshun was also very resourceful. He would wait for the Sogdian merchants to hide in the fort before he showed up. There was not enough room for camels in the fort, so there must be a large number of camels left outside. They plundered the camels and then exchanged them with those inside. The person asked for the price.

Each Sogdian merchant could survive by handing over 70% of his goods. However, the camels were snatched away and the goods could not be carried, so the Sogdian merchants had no choice but to surrender.

With this move, Tuoba Changshun and his men made a lot of money, but no one died. Of course, if the people inside dared to resist, they would definitely kill them all.

Zhang Xiaohuan was afraid right here, because he knew that these two guys would definitely resist.

Tuoba Changshun heard that more than 20 people had been shot dead. He had never suffered such a big loss. He was so angry that his eyes burst into flames and he said angrily: Go and chop down trees to make collision wood. We must kill them all today. Kill absolutely.

All the horse bandits retreated more than 300 steps away. Taking advantage of this gap, Li Ye climbed down easily. The fort was made of rough granite. There were many uneven spots on it. It might be difficult for others. It couldn't be easier for Li Ye.

He jumped down gently and knocked on the door, Old Hei, it's me!

The door creaked open a crack, and Black Spear probed his head and asked in surprise: Sir, why are you outside?

I came down from above to help move the body away.

The two of them moved the corpse away together and collected hundreds of arrows. Li Ye pulled out his dagger and cut off half of the shafts of the hundred arrows. Li Ye suddenly looked up at the castle and said a little worriedly: This bastard You won’t lock us out!”

Black Spear chuckled, He was knocked unconscious by my punch. Just now he tried his best to persuade me to surrender and beg for mercy. I was tired of hearing it.

When Black Spear saw Li Ye inserting arrows into the ground with their tips pointed upward, Black Spear's eyes suddenly lit up and he gave a thumbs up, What a great idea!

As soon as you see it, help. Don't insert too much. This thing can only be used once. If they find it, they will sweep it away.

Black Spear suddenly thought of something, and immediately went back to get a red gourd, and whispered: This is Hedinghong. I bought it to deal with Wang Xian, but I didn't use it. I just happened to use it now.

hehe! Unexpectedly, Lao Hei has a dark heart, but Li Ye likes him.

Be careful, just a little bit of this stuff is enough.

The black spear applied a little poison on each arrow tip. In a moment, a poisonous arrow path about one foot long and three feet wide was made. This was the only way for the opponent to hit the wood with a big wood.

It's almost time, let's go back!

Black Spear entered the first floor and bolted the door. Li Ye carried three pots of good arrows on his back and returned from the original route. Even the world rock climbing champion had to be defeated by him. His movements were so dexterous that he almost degenerated into an ape.

Woo——

The horn sounded again in the distance, and the horse bandits who were resting got up to assemble. This time they did not ride horses, but each carried a saddle as a shield.

Li Ye laughed dumbly, will this be useful?

Not to mention the saddle, even a real shield cares about the head and not the tail. And there is another biggest problem with using the saddle as a shield. They can't use bows and arrows.

This is the stupidity of the horse bandits. They don't understand that offense is the best defense.

Li Ye sneered, drew his bow like a full moon, and shot an arrow. One hundred and fifty steps away, a horse bandit screamed and knelt on the ground. His thigh was shot through by an arrow.

Immediately afterwards, Li Ye shot more than a dozen arrows, and more than a dozen horse bandits fell to the ground, either shot in the head by an arrow or shot through the thigh.

Tuoba Changshun's eldest son and commanding leader Tuoba Xiu finally reacted and shouted: Shoot an arrow to seal him!

More than 150 horse bandits rode forward and fired arrows at the top of the fort. The dense arrows suppressed Li Ye.

Tuoba Xiu shouted: Go and knock on the door!

Thirty horse bandits rushed toward the gate holding a big log. Li Ye did not let them go just because they would encounter an ambush. He turned sideways and fired arrows from the gap. With each arrow, one person fell. More than a hundred steps , thirty horse bandits were shot dead and nearly twenty of them were killed. Fortunately, there were many of them, and more than twenty horse bandits immediately rushed forward to supplement them.

More than thirty horse bandits holding Chuangmu were approaching the gate. Suddenly, the horse bandits screamed and fell to the ground one after another, covering their feet and crying. Chuangmu fell to the ground with a crash and rolled to the side.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed out from behind the fort with a ray of cold light, and rushed forward like a gust of wind. The cold light flashed, blood burst out, and human skulls and bones rolled to the ground, including those with injured or injured feet. The injured, more than thirty people were killed in the blink of an eye, and the black shadow turned around and ran towards the back of the fort.

More than a hundred cavalrymen were stunned. They suddenly reacted, yelled and ran towards the back of the fort. There was no one behind the fort. They were greeted only by ruthless shooting from above the fort. Every arrow shot out, There must have been a cavalryman who fell off his horse with a headshot, and more than twenty people were shot dead in the blink of an eye. These horse bandits were frightened, turned their horses, and ran away. Li Ye chased after them and shot nine arrows in one go, killing nine of them. people.

Li Ye finally saw through it. These guys were just ordinary herdsmen. They couldn't even ride and shoot. They could only shoot arrows immediately. It was probably because they were robbing Sogdian merchants too smoothly. None of them were willing to endure hardships to practice martial arts. Today they tasted Taste it.

Li Ye simply put the bow and arrow on his back, slid down the second floor with the weapon, and then went down the stairs to the first floor. He saw Black Spear holding a big knife and staring out from the crack in the door.

Zhang Xiaohuan hid behind several camels and chanted Buddhist scriptures desperately.

Black Spear turned around and saw Li Ye, Ah! Why did the young master come down?

Li Ye sneered and said: Don't look down upon them. These horse bandits will only bully the defenseless people. Open the door bolt and let us go out and kill them all!
