I formed the strongest swordsman group

The remaining scouts all had their eyes widened and their mouths slightly opened, as if they had seen a ghost.

The next moment, they screamed, whipped their horses like crazy, and ran away, ignoring the bodies of their companions and leaving only a trail of smoke.

"Good bow...good archery skills..."

Sanazi stared blankly at Qingden, who was still raising his bow, and kept murmuring.

Archery was one of Sanako's required courses.

Although he is not proficient in this method, his level is remarkable.

Therefore, she naturally understood how amazing Qingden Shicai's rapid fire was!

Sitting on the back of an unstable ox, without aiming, he just put the arrow on the bow, raised his hand and shot, hitting the center of the human body more than thirty meters away... There is no doubt that this is a master's skill!

The last time Sanako saw Aoto show off his archery skills was when he faced the elite troops of the Qingshui clan during the pursuit of Genfusyo.

In less than 2 years, Qingdeng's archery level has made a huge leap forward!

In addition, the bow he used was also extraordinary.

Qingdeng did not draw the bow fully just now, but only pulled the bow string halfway - just like that, the arrow easily flew over a distance of more than thirty meters and penetrated the hard skull effortlessly! If you look carefully, the arrow shaft is not even halfway in!

Sanako has always admired the strong.

Qingdeng's superb bow skills made his eyes flash, and his beautiful eyes were filled with brilliance.

Driven by curiosity, she couldn't help but asked aloud:

"Tachibana-kun, where did you learn your bow skills?"

Facing Sanako's expectant gaze, Qingden couldn't help but smile.

Qingdeng could even imagine what kind of conversation would take place after he told the truth——

My archery master is Atsuki Tianzhangin. What? You ask me which Tianzhangyuan Atsushi? Is there a second Tianzhangin Atsushi in this country?

Even if he told the truth, Sanazi would probably not believe it. He just felt that Qingden was crazy about women. After threatening to marry three wives, he now coveted a widow.

All in all, now is not the best time to make the special relationship between himself and Tianzhang Academy public.

So, he replied half-truthfully:

"One day, when I was relaxing in a certain shrine, I suddenly met a big tengu. That big tengu was very good at arching and was also very enthusiastic. She saw that I didn't know how to bow, so she dragged me. Taught me all her skills."

As Qingto finished speaking, Sanako's expression changed significantly - her forehead was covered with black lines, and her eyes looked like she had seen something bad and dirty.

"Daitengu... do you think you are Minamoto Yoshitsune?"

Genkuro Yoshitsune and the Great Tengu - that is, the famous Japanese allusion: "Ushiwakamaru and the Kurama Tengu".

Ushiwakamaru is the nickname of Minamoto Yoshitsune.

According to legend, the legendary hero Minamoto no Yoshitsune at the end of the Heian period once worshiped the Tengu as his disciple at Mount Kurama. Minamoto Yoshitsune's art of war and martial arts were all taught by Kurama Tengu.

During Japan's Heian period (794-1192), in order to gain power and rule the world, the Kyoto court incorporated Onmyodo into the legal system.

Later, the "Yin Yang Liao", a government-run organization specializing in the study of Yin and Yang Dao, was established, and Yin Yang Dao reached its peak.

For this reason, there were quite a lot of strange stories related to gods and ghosts during the Heian period.

"Minamoto Yorimitsu kills Shuten Doji with his precious sword Yasutsuna" and "Sakanoue Tamuramaro destroys Otakemaru's body with magical arrows." There are so many different things that can be compiled better than fantasy novels.

Sanako is not the kind of fool who can't read the air.

Seeing that Qingdeng was unwilling to tell who his archery master was, she stopped going further.

She glanced back and forth at Qingdeng with suspicious eyes, then curled her red lips and looked away.

Qingdeng lowered his head and carefully looked at the purple bow in his hand, the corners of his slightly raised lips filled with satisfaction.

This was the first time that he put Yise Zhafu Riluo into actual combat.

I have to say that this bow is indeed a bow carefully selected by the majestic "Queen Mother", and its quality is extraordinary.

Qingdeng didn't know how to make bows, so he didn't know what kind of materials were used for the bow in his hand.

He only knew one thing - this bow was perfect!

The curvature and weight of the bow, the power of the arrows... everything is impeccable! It’s like it’s tailor-made for him!

According to Qingdeng's estimation, if Yisezha Fushilara was pulled into a full moon, its power would reach an astonishing 80 pounds!

Generally speaking, a bow weighing around 50 pounds already has armor-piercing capabilities.

80 pounds... This is enough to nail a large living person to the ground!

Of course, this is not the scariest thing about this bow.

This bow must be in the hands of Qingdeng...or it must be in the hands of a "mutant" like Qingdeng in order to exert its greatest power.

With the blessing of many talents such as "Strong Muscles +5", "Tiger Arms +4", "Nine Bulls and Two Tigers +3", Qingden can draw the bow quickly and continuously.

According to the standards of "raising the bow and shooting" and "every arrow must be of maximum power", he can shoot approximately 40 arrows per minute.

There are 40 arrows per minute, and each arrow has a power of about 80 pounds... It is no exaggeration to say that Qingden holding Yisezhafu Riluo is simply a mobile rapid-fire turret!

After taking his eyes away from the bow with satisfaction, Qingden handed the bow to his left hand, freeing his right hand to hold the reins.

"Zanako, let's go and have a good look at the bandit army's camp!"

After saying that, he knocked lightly on the belly of the cow and drove the carrot forward.

"Moo~~"

Carrot spread his hooves knowingly and ran away after a while.

Sanako was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly rode up to follow.

She did not forget her status as a "bodyguard" and maintained a high degree of vigilance. Sometimes she turned her head and looked around, and sometimes she pointed her ears to listen to the sounds in the distance.

Although he pretended to be calm, the intense tension lingered in his cheeks.

To make the female swordsman who usually behaves calmly become like this... one can imagine how much psychological pressure she is under now.

As the saying goes, "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs." So, the current situation of Qingden and Zanako is to go around in the tiger's den!

Sanako was so nervous, but Qingto... was just like usual!

His expression was so relaxed and calm, as if he was on an outing to enjoy flowers!

His calm look stunned Sanako on the side.

She had to be alert to the surroundings, but also cast a shocked look at Qingden... Her eyes were almost overwhelmed.

At this moment, the sudden sound of hooves sucked away Sanako's attention.

She followed the sound - and saw a dozen cavalrymen riding fast, appearing from behind, heading towards them!

Upon seeing this, Sanako immediately issued an alarm:

"Tangerine-kun! The rebel cavalry is approaching!"

As she spoke, she subconsciously raised the naginata in her hand with a solemn expression, as if facing a formidable enemy.

Qingdeng smiled lightly.

"Zanako, there is no need to be nervous. Just a dozen cavalrymen can't do anything to me."

As he spoke, he drew an arrow from the quiver on the saddle.

Then, he kept riding, turned half of his body, and looked back with an arrow.

The high-pitched string sounds swelled instantly.

The arrows released pierced the atmosphere and plunged deeply into someone's throat in the blink of an eye.

The person who was hit by the arrow made unexplained sounds of "Gurgling" and "Uh-huh". He grasped the wooden beam that penetrated his throat with both hands and fell off the horse. He kicked the ground alternately with his legs, wandering on the edge of life and death. After a while, he stopped breathing and met the King of Hell.

Qingdeng kept moving.

He continued to draw arrows from the quiver at a rapid but rhythmic speed.

Draw the arrow, nock the arrow, draw the bow, shoot the arrow, hit the target, continue to draw the arrow... the cycle repeats.

With the blessing of the talented "riding expert", Qingdeng's riding talent has reached 36 times the average level of ordinary people!

Thanks to this talent, Qingdeng is very good at riding things!

Whether it's a person, an ox or a horse, they can be ridden soundly and vividly - in every sense of the word.

In addition, he also has "Iron Waist +3" and "Bear Waist +5" to enhance waist strength, and "Cat Turn +3" to improve balance... These talents can enable Qingden to let go of the reins. , still able to sit firmly on the saddle.

As a result, after systematic transformation, Qingdeng's riding and shooting skills were extremely high.

Even on the bumpy back of an ox, it was as if it were on flat ground, with an absurdly high hit rate.

The arrows that shot out hit either the throat or the Tianling Cap... In short, they were all vital parts that were bound to die.

Kill with one arrow!

The cavalry squad that originally numbered about ten people was quickly reduced to six people under Qingdeng's "roll call" one by one - and this only took less than 10 seconds!

In an instant, all the surviving rebel cavalry showed a look of horror on their faces. They tightened their horse reins in unison and widened the distance between them and Qingdeng.

Seeing that the opponent was no longer approaching, Qingden put away the Yisezhafu Riluo in his hand and continued to ride the bull forward, moving slowly.

The surviving rebel cavalry neither dared to approach nor wanted to leave.

In this way, an extremely weird and funny scene was born——

In front of them, Qingdeng and Sanako walked leisurely and leisurely, while the rebel cavalry behind them followed cautiously and step by step... Whenever they found that their position seemed to be a little too far forward, they hurriedly slowed down, or He immediately drove his horse back, fearing that an arrow would fly towards him.

This kind of sight of swaggering around the enemy's formation, but the enemy didn't dare to approach at will, is really jaw-dropping.

For a moment, a cavalryman did not know whether it was because of his sense of responsibility or because he could not stand the oppressive atmosphere. He took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and rode forward... The next moment, an arrow flew over him. It penetrated between the eyebrows and came out from the back of his head.

Then... there is no more.

With this "brave"'s lesson learned, the remaining people were completely frightened by Qingdeng's "kite tactics" and kept a certain distance from Qingdeng in an orderly manner, more obedient than lambs.

Qingdeng paid no attention to the shrunken turtles behind him. He straightened up, stretched his neck, squinted his eyes, and looked straight at the bandit camp not far away. From time to time, he took out his monocular telescope from his arms and looked around. Scan.

Once the number of people exceeds 10,000, the scale will be huge.

A crowd of more than 10,000 people... even if it is not spread out into a battle formation, it can basically fill the field of vision of ordinary people.

The sky was foggy, and only weak sunlight seeped out from the distant sky, outlining the outline of the endless camps spread out over the vast basin.

The dark flow of people, like a tidal wave, passed through every corner of the camp, performing their duties in an orderly manner.

Flags of different sizes and colors fluttered in the wind.

Sanazi, who had nothing to do, also followed to observe the bandit army's camp.

Suddenly, Qingdeng asked her abruptly:

"...Sanako, what do you think? What do you think of this bandit army?"

Qingto's sudden question unsurprisingly aroused Sanako's confusion.

Sanako blinked, frowned slightly, raised his gaze, and carefully looked at Qingden's facial expression.

After realizing that the other party was not asking casually, she lightly pursed her red lips and thought about it.

At this moment, the intensive and rapid sound of horse hooves came from behind them again.

Qingdeng didn't even raise an eyebrow, he took the arrow, cocked the bow, turned back - whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! ——After shooting four arrows in a row, silence returned to their rear.

About 10 seconds later, Sanako, who was thoughtful for a moment, replied unhurriedly:

"I don't understand military strategy, but... I can feel that this bandit army is very orderly, not a chaotic mob."

"And... they have a large number of military flags of different shapes."

"I suspect they already have the ability to use military flags to convey messages..."

After hearing this, Qingdeng nodded gently with no expression on his face.

"Sanako, you are right, I have the same opinion as you."

"It's just that, apart from the order of personnel and the number of military flags, there is another thing that makes me care more."

When Sanako heard this, he immediately held his breath and concentrated, indicating with his eyes to "keep on talking".

Qingdeng continued the words calmly:

"Their military camp is really well built."

"They set up camp in the most suitable places."

“The location and orientation of the tent can be described as ‘impeccable’.”

"In addition, they actually know how to put up fences and dig trenches, and the placement of fences and trenches is very particular."

"Building a military camp is a very learned thing."

"This band of thieves is actually proficient in this - and this is what I find most unbelievable."

"I'm in two minds right now."

"First, their commanders are either empresses from famous families who have received extremely strict military education, or they are the kind of wizards who are self-taught without a teacher."

"Secondly, they have the help of experts... There is a very powerful 'strategist' who is guiding them on how to fight."

"If it's the former, then that's it."

"But if it's the latter..."

Speaking of this, Qing Deng suddenly stopped talking.

Sanako seemed to realize something, and the expression on her pretty face gradually became serious.

After a while, Qingden said quietly:

"Is the force behind the scenes the troublesome, Satsuma? Changshu? Or... the Punishment Party?"

Suddenly, the neighing of war horses sounded again behind them.

However, this time is different from before.

This time, there was a huge movement like a sudden rain.
