Spring comes to the desperate place

Chapter 178 Bow and Arrow

Children under the age of six are generally not registered in the household registration, and conscripts will only recruit males who are registered in the household registration. Song Chunlin doesn't understand why all the males here are underage children, and he doesn't know whether all the young and middle-aged people have been forced to perform labor service.

Song Chunlin walked for a long time, but on this whole street, not only were there fewer passers-by, but even the number of open shops was less than on the streets outside. Song Chunlin felt bored, so he walked back.

For three consecutive days, Song Chunlin went shopping during the day and killed Turks with his mental power at night. He recently set a small goal for himself. In addition to those small officials like the centurions, he planned to do something big, such as killing their commander. If the commander is dead, can the war continue?

Song Chunlin happily told Gu Fengyue this good idea. Gu Fengyue's eyes were extremely complicated at the time, and he finally uttered two words with difficulty: "Not bad."

Of course, the premise of the whole thing is that Song Chunlin can really kill the enemy coach.

Although Song Chunlin's mental power is extremely magical, the opponent's commander is not a fool. After three or four days of assassinations, the number of people around the commander has increased threefold, and ordinary soldiers are also in groups, not giving Song Chunlin any chance to attack.

These two days Song Chunlin could only sneak around to kill those who were dead asleep. These people were the least prepared, so the easiest to kill. Moreover, because everyone was on edge these two days, more and more people suddenly fell dead asleep, so Song Chunlin was pretty adept at killing them.

What Song Chunlin didn't know was that his continuous assassinations every night caused panic in the Turkic military camp, and because the murderer could not be caught, the entire army was very restless.

Today, Song Chunlin went out shopping as usual and strolled around the north gate of Baita City. Unlike the south gate, the land here was obviously flatter. Although it was also sandy land, it was still possible to grow things after some transformation.

Song Chunlin thinks that this place is not only suitable for growing cotton and wolfberry, but also for growing corn or watermelon?

All the while he was thinking about how to transform that large piece of vacant land. Just as he stepped into the gate of the government office, a loud and long horn sounded suddenly outside the city.

"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack! The Turks are coming, hide quickly!"

Suddenly many soldiers appeared on the street. The small vendors who were still setting up stalls on the street quickly packed up their things, and passers-by ran all the way. In less than a quarter of an hour, there was no civilian to be seen on the street, and the empty square in front of the government office was also filled with soldiers.

Coincidentally, General Qi went to the military camp today, and those who stayed in the city were the Gu family army brought by Gu Fengyue. Song Chunlin saw many familiar faces among them.

Gu Fengyue put on his armor and looked very majestic. Song Chunlin knew that now was not the right time, so he could only envy him silently in his heart.

Gu Fengyue was already calling out orders, and Song Chunlin seemed to have thought of something. He quickly walked to a door, and when he came out he was wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a compound bow on his back.

When Gu Fengyue saw how he was dressed, she knew that he wanted to follow them up the city wall, and her brows were full of disapproval.

Song Chunlin pointed at the bow and arrow behind him and chuckled, "What a good thing! Although I don't know how to use it, there are so many people below, I can always shoot a few, right?"

Gu Fengyue originally wanted to refuse, but for some reason, Song Chunlin only had to look at him and he couldn't help but agree.

Song Chunlin was so happy that he danced with joy after getting his approval. The bow and arrow was just a trick for him, his real killer move was his mental power. Before in the Turkic camp, due to the distance limit, he couldn't use his mental power to strangle the commander. Now that the opponent had come to his door, the opportunity could not be missed. Since he was here, he should not leave and leave his life behind.

When General Qi learned that Gu Fengyue actually let Song Chunlin climb up the city wall, he was extremely disapproving, but since the kid had already come and was carrying a strange-looking bow, he thought that the kid was just having a little fun. He shook his head speechlessly and secretly found a few people to protect Song Chunlin.

Those people originally wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy, but now they were sent to protect a young master who was ignorant of the immensity of the world. Everyone was very angry, and when they saw Song Chunlin's curious movements, they felt even more disdainful.

Song Chunlin only had a bow but no arrows in his hand. He asked an archer next to him for a few arrows and was trying to see if they could be used. He put the arrow on the bow and pulled it, and found that it worked. The only difference was that the ancient arrows were not as strong as modern ones, so he didn't know if he could eventually achieve his ideal shooting range.

The archer on the side looked at the bow in Song Chunlin's hand curiously. The bow looked fancy and had strange hollow patterns. The archer thought it was just a flower stand. He didn't expect that Song Chunlin could really pull the bow, and it looked quite professional.

Seeing his curiosity, Song Chunlin generously handed him the bow and let him try it.

The archer waved his hands and refused: "No, the young master's things must be very valuable. We are all rough people and are afraid that we will damage them..."

Song Chunlin did not allow him to refuse: "Try it and see how it differs from yours."

The bow was stuffed into the archer's hand. He picked it up with great difficulty and tried to pull it. He found that this bow seemed lighter and more handy than the one in his hand, and the bowstring did not seem to be made of cow tendon, but another kind of thinner silk thread.

Because he was not familiar with Song Chunlin, the archer was embarrassed to ask Song Chunlin what material this was.

Song Chunlin took the compound bow and aimed it at the Turkic soldiers below. He aimed with his mental power, and the arrow left his hand and hit the soldier right between his eyebrows.

"Wow, not bad, your skills are still as sharp as ever!" Song Chunlin looked excited, and his operation shocked the people behind him, even the archer next to him was stunned.

"No, this, young master, when you shoot an arrow, do you aim directly at it?" The archer stuttered a little. He tried to draw the bow himself in disbelief, but found that it didn't work because the range was not enough.

Song Chunlin was confused: "If you don't aim and shoot when shooting an arrow, then how do you shoot?"

The archers said no, at such a long distance like now, they all shot towards the sky, which not only increased the range, but also increased the penetration of the arrows. And Song Chunlin was able to kill the target with one shot after taking aim at such a long distance, so he could truly be called a sharpshooter, okay!

Song Chunlin ignored the stunned crowd and drew his bow and shot arrows again. This time he aimed at the enemy commander. However, he missed this time because the commander was sitting in the rear and the distance was a little far. Song Chunlin was still considering whether he should strangle him directly with his mental power.

Meanwhile, under the city wall, the Gu family army was fighting fiercely with the Turks. Although the Gu family army had not been to the battlefield for a long time, the Gu family had never stopped training them, so they were evenly matched with the brave and warlike Turks.
