Chapter 10: Protect Stone Village, Face Off Against the Ironclad!
"Village chief, quickly tell everyone in the village to hide in the mountains! The imperial army is about to enter the village!"
Seeing the village chief walking towards him, Li Tiansheng, fearing he might bump into the village chief while riding his horse, quickly jumped off his warhorse.
"That can't be!"
"Why would the imperial army come?"
"Could it be that someone went to inform on us to the imperial court?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible, Leonardo DiCaprio, you must be joking."
At this moment, a number of villagers had gathered around the village chief, and upon hearing Li Tian's words, they immediately began to discuss them amongst themselves.
"It's too late!"
"You must listen to me."
"It's a matter of life and death, how could I lie?"
Li Tian was almost in tears. He had come to deliver the message out of kindness, but why wouldn't these people believe him? Were they all fearless?
Is the information accurate?
"Who told you that?"
The village chief looked somewhat solemn, but seemed to have some trust in Li Tian.
Just then, a villager suddenly pointed to the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village and shouted.
"Look! What's that?"
The village chief, Li Tian, and the people around Li Tian all looked towards the big banyan tree.
Li Tian gasped.
As dusk approached,
Dusk was falling.
In the deep twilight, six cavalrymen slowly approached Stone Village.
They were completely encased in dark black iron armor, leaving only their faces and necks exposed. Military bows hung on their horses' backs, and fearsome spiked clubs were carried on their backs.
It appeared exceptionally tall in the twilight.
Before the person even arrived, a murderous aura swept over the entire village.
It's the imperial scouts who have arrived.
Six riders came in total.
The people of Stone Village were terrified. They had already joined the rebel army and had even taken the meat and wives that the rebels had given them.
Now that the imperial army has arrived, what should we do?
The entire Stone Village fell silent for a moment, with only the soft cracking sound of the six cavalrymen stepping on the dry branches and leaves on the ground.
"Listen up, people of Stone Village! We are scouts from the imperial court."
"I heard that Nankai City has been occupied by the rebel army. I suppose you have all joined the rebel army."
"According to the imperial law, he should be executed!"
"However, considering Heaven's benevolence towards life, I will give you a chance."
"Just hand over the people who joined the rebel army, and I'll guarantee your Stone Village will be safe."
"otherwise……"
The six imperial armored riders did not enter Stone Village, but stopped under the big banyan tree in Stone Village.
The speaker was a man completely clad in black armor, with eyes as sharp as a hawk's.
As he spoke, he lightly plucked the bowstring in his hand, appearing nonchalant.
But his tone was extremely cold, as if he were talking to a group of ants.
They have that kind of confidence.
Although the entire Stone Village has five or six hundred people, they only have six.
But with their armor, maces, and longbows, they were confident they could wipe out the village before the main force of the rebels arrived.
"otherwise……"
The corporal didn't finish his sentence; he simply raised his arm slightly.
The two soldiers beside him silently drew their longbows, nocked arrows, and aimed two cold arrows at Li Tian and his group.
The villagers were so frightened that they lowered their heads and didn't dare to breathe.
But no one stood up to betray their teammates.
after all,
There were a total of twenty-six able-bodied men who joined the righteous army this time.
Most of them grew up in the village.
Many of them are related by blood or marriage, and now, faced with the brutal scouts of the imperial court, no one would choose to betray their own people.
"Stubborn to the end!"
Seeing that no one was willing to step forward and identify those who had joined the rebel army, the corporal sneered and lightly waved his arm.
The two soldiers beside him did not rush to shoot arrows, but instead took out long arrows, dipped them in a little oil, and gently rubbed them on a flint.
Whoosh!
Two blazing rockets appeared in their hands.
Then they drew their bows again, aimed at the nearest house, and gently released the bowstring. With a whoosh, the arrow landed on the roof of the house.
It was late autumn, the weather was dry, and with a whoosh, a strong wind blew, and the fire quickly spread throughout the house.
That was the house of villager Wang Daniu, a thatched hut that couldn't withstand the raging fire.
In an instant, the fire burned down more than half of his house.
"My house!"
Suddenly, a muffled roar came from the crowd. Wang Daniu could no longer hold back and grabbed a hoe, charging towards the six scouts.
"Da Niu, don't go!"
"You'll die!"
A gasp rippled through the crowd behind him. Everyone knew that an unarmed peasant could not possibly be a match for six armored soldiers.
However, it was too late; Wang Daniu had already rushed to within ten meters of the six armored vehicles.
The sergeant glanced coldly at Wang Daniu and slowly nocked a long arrow onto his longbow.
Whoosh!
The bowstring loosened.
An arrow struck Wang Daniu squarely in the chest. He staggered forward two steps and slowly collapsed to the ground.
"Great guy!"
Another cry rang out from the crowd, and Wang Daniu's wife, Xu Huaihua, rushed out from the crowd and charged straight at the six soldiers.
"Give me back my husband's life!"
She was greeted by a silent spiked club.
The wind howled.
Just as Xu Huaihua rushed to the front of a warhorse, the armored rider swung the spiked club behind him and smashed it hard on her head.
boom!
The top of Xu Huaihua's head shattered, and the bodies of Xu Huaihua and Wang Daniu lay side by side.
"brute!"
An unnamed fire surged within Li Tian.
Although he was a time traveler.
But at least it grew up in Stone Village for a few years.
Seeing the imperial soldiers treating human life so carelessly, how could they possibly tolerate it?
"Village chief, you need to lead everyone to escape quickly and spread out as much as possible so that the armored soldiers don't hit us."
"There are mountains behind us, try to run into the mountains, I'll hold off these armored vehicles for everyone."
"If I can't hold them off, send someone to Nankai City to report the news."
"We must not let the imperial court's treacherous conscripts destroy our Stone Village."
Li Tian turned his head and whispered to the village chief.
"Xiao Tian, you..."
A hint of surprise flashed in the village chief's eyes. Before he could stop him, Li Tian had already taken a broadsword from his horse and slowly walked forward.
Li Tian's appearance startled all six armored soldiers.
One of them smiled slightly, raised his longbow, and fired an arrow at Li Tian.
Whoosh!
The arrow landed not far from Li Tian's feet.
It seems to serve only as a warning.
I didn't intend to kill him.
Ignoring everything else, Li Tian continued walking forward.
A flash of annoyance crossed the man's eyes. He raised his longbow again and nocked an arrow.
This time, they aimed at Li Tian's chest.
Whoosh!
Without hesitation, the man released the bowstring.
It was obvious that they were after Li Tian's life.
Just at this time,
The agility that Li Tian gained, which was five times that of an ordinary person, came into play.
Li Tian simply held the broadsword in his hand in front of him.
Stab it!
The long arrow left a dazzling trail of fire on the broadsword before falling limply to the ground.
For Li Tian, it was just a slight numbness in his arm.
Li Tian couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
"If an ordinary person were to block this arrow, they would probably be so shaken that they wouldn't be able to lift their arms."
"But I didn't feel anything at all. It seems that my vigorous physique is working."
When the armored man saw that he had failed to kill Li Tian with his arrow, he became enraged. He took off his spiked club, kicked his horse's belly, and charged towards Li Tian like a gust of wind.
His five companions behind him showed no intention of helping; instead, they crossed their arms and looked on as if they were watching a good show.
