Chapter 56: Battle in the Falling Canyon (5)
The canyon is boiling!
Under the command of Guo Yinyi, the old and young soldiers and civilians of the valley joined the construction team of fortifications. According to the discussions of several people, the stream passing through the valley was converted into a moat that circled along the cliffs as the last barrier to defense.
The valley was not big, and the moat of more than 2,000 people was dug in less than two days. It was 50 meters long, 5 meters wide and 5 meters deep. A five-foot-high stone pier was built in the inner circle of the moat. This transformation turned into a small castle.
After Yang Xiao came out of the Seminar Hall, Li Qi was able to go to the arsenal in the valley together. According to the plan, the competition for the cave port will be a key step, and there must be enough bows and arrows.
However, when she arrived at the arsenal, Yang Xiao was stunned! In the huge wooden house, there were only a dozen bundles of iron-headed arrow feathers scattered in the corner, and nothing else was left.
"Li Zi! Do you have any other arsenal?"
"No more, this one!"
"Where are the bows and arrows? Why are there so few?" Yang Xiao asked in confusion, "You haven't fought in wars all these years?"
Li Qi touched the back of his head awkwardly and smiled: "The three of us Duwei only traveled to the Western Regions with Mr. Qin every six months. Besides, the peace has come in the past few days, and those little despises on the road are not enough to beat them, so we have fewer bows and arrows!"
"Damn! He's still an elite soldier! What kind of guard?" Yang Xiao walked away from the arsenal with a gloomy face.
No wonder there is an old man who said it well. Without research, there is no right to speak. This time, he is really bragging. It is good that more than three thousand arrow feathers can block a wave of attacks!
"It seems that you can only write in the cave!" Yang Xiao returned to Xiaozhu, sat on the bamboo chair and pondered, his mind flashing with the battle for caves in various blockbusters of the 21st century! Mines, reefs, poisonous gas, flames...
All of these are not as comfortable as waiting for the effort, not to mention that these techniques are not useful! If there is an arrow, it would be great. Lean at the entrance of the cave and wait to shoot, kill as much as you come!
Arrows, arrows, arrows...
Yang Xiao looked through Qiushui and sat where he was sitting in a daze.
Qin Xiaoxiao walked over from inside with Xiangming. Seeing Yang Xiao’s eyebrows locked, she couldn’t help but sigh: “It would be great if I could fly up, everyone would go clean!”
Yang Xiao was shocked, woke up, and felt something when he looked at the towering cliff.
People can't get up! But things can come down!!!
You can ask the scout to buy bows and arrows to hang down from the cliff. Yang Xiao smiled happily when he thought of this, but now how can he get out of the cave entrance tightly?
It seems that the only way to ask Miss Qing'er to inform Liu Xiongwei!
Qing'er hesitated a little, and his beautiful big eyes stared at Yang Xiao as if he was a little reluctant. After he hesitated for a while, he nipped his teeth and lowered his head and hummed.
Yang Xiao asked Qin Xiaoxiao to take pen and imprint two letters, one for Liu Xiongwei to purchase bows and arrows and hang them from the cliffs, and the other for Daniu. Daniu asked his father to contact several blacksmiths in Luoyang to create various jungle traps in later generations overnight.
After the Qing'er girl left, Yang Xiao called several Duwei and selected two or three hundred diving men from the team to hide into the cave and carry out assassination.
According to Yang Xiao's estimate, it is impossible for Shangguan Dress to attack the cave without a small boat. In this mountain, she can only cut bamboo into bamboo steaks, which is the most convenient.
Two days have been spent in this busy preparation.
Qing'er didn't come back, so she called Yang Xiao a little worried. I wonder if she had found Liu Xiongwei or something happened? But after thinking about it, she was relieved. If Miss Qing'er wanted to escape, no one would be able to catch up.
On the morning of the third day, if Yang Xiao probably had it, Shangguan’s darling appeared.
There were hundreds of bamboo rows lying in the deep pool, and thousands of tight-fitting water ghosts in black clothes were on standby.
The earth trembled, and Shangguan’s favorite opened the crossbow to show his power!
Bamboo rafts carried dozens of torches in hand and drove into the cave.
The cave suddenly became lit up.
Zhang Liang led two hundred men from the canyon to dive into the water, holding a knife and waiting silently.
When Yang Xiao gave an interview to him yesterday, he asked him to give full play to his terrain advantages, and not too many people fell into the water each time, so that he could reach the advantage of the number within the controllable range.
There is only a small boat walking alone in the narrow path in the cave, and Zhang Liang and hundreds of people hide here.
When the first bamboo row reached the corner of the narrow road, Zhang Liang led more than a dozen people to dive quietly. Under the potential bamboo row, he gently hooked the ox-cutting knife, and the bamboo row disintegrated.
The scattered bamboos suddenly stuck around the corner, blocking the passageway ahead behind. More than a dozen imperial guards fell into the water and became the mouth food of Zhang Liang and his mouth. When the water ghost behind him dived into the water, Zhang Liang and the others left.
So on the third day, both sides were tentatively chasing this, and their casualties were not very large.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The night is quiet!
Shangguan Dress was not in a hurry, and she withdrew all the bamboo steaks at dusk. I think she would never attack at night, as the world's number one.
Yang Xiao sat alone outside the small building. Qin Xiaoxiao had already rested at Zhang's house in the valley to avoid the suspicion of being a man and a woman.
A black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and fell silently into the small building.
"You are here!" Yang Xiao said carelessly.
"Ah, you know martial arts? How did you know I'm going to come?" the man in black asked in surprise.
Yang Xiao rolled his eyes and said, "You can't see the shadows on the ground! No matter how good your martial arts are, your shadows will never be practiced!"
The man in black giggled and sat leisurely opposite Yang Xiao.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
"Hey! Why do you always ask such mentally retarded questions?" Yang Xiaobiao glanced and sighed, "Why wait until now if you want to kill me? You really farted with taking off your pants and you can't stand it."
The man in black was stunned. After thinking about it, it was really the case!
Yang Xiao glanced at her and explained, "I think you are a good person, not as arrogant as that stinky woman. Although you are not incompatible with water and fire, you are all arrogant people, who should not do the same thing at once. Are you right?"
The man in black nodded in admiration, his big black eyes shining.
"Then guess what I mean?"
"Guess again! I won't guess, as long as you know me! Oh, by the way, I want to ask you, how did you come in?"
"You guess!" The man in black smiled softly.
Yang Xiaobiao glanced and said, "I guess again, I won't come down from the cliff!"
"Yes!" The man in black responded softly, pointing his little hand to a rope as thin as silk next to the waterfall.
Yang Xiao suddenly became very excited and said, "I don't ask who you are. Since you know me, then take me up!"
"How is it? You want to escape!" the man in black said in surprise.
"Swish! Do you think I can?" Yang laughed at her for a moment.
The man in black thought about his past events, nodded and sighed: "Yes, you won't! Let's go, I'll take you to see the moon on the mountain!"
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I'm late to come back, and the update is slow, I'm sorry!
