One of the carriages was dismantled and the wheels were placed on the horses. Everyone helped to carry the things in the carriage.
The shafts were also carried and the carriage was broken into pieces.
The horses were led through Dayu Ridge. The Winged Knights ran back and forth and looked around with binoculars.
Zhang Jiuling asked the Winged Knights to continue following and protect the money.
They didn't take a detour and quickly returned home. They told the people that after the harvest, they would immediately come back to repair the road.
The people didn't want to work for the yamen for free. They wanted to do it themselves and needed a leader.
The carriages were dismantled just like that and flipped over. The distance was short and the speed was fast.
Zhang Jiuling carried a bag filled with newspapers. The earliest ones taught pinyin, as well as the popular science section that he cut out himself.
What Li Yi was puzzled about was actually very simple. Zhang Jiuling knew that his hometown had to wait a long time for newspapers.
In addition, the prime ministers didn't do a good job. He wanted to come back and teach a group of people so that everyone in his hometown could read.
He saw the changes in the capital's residents after they learned how to read. They read newspapers and learned from them.
The children who cleaned shoes could even write. The people would know the life tips in the newspapers after reading them.
Zhang Jiuling originally wanted to bring back a few dictionaries when the dictionary came out, but he realized that it would be a waste of time. He decided to learn pinyin first.
"Help, there's a tiger. Help ~ ~" The group was moving forward with difficulty when a cry for help came from the front.
"Everyone, don't be afraid. We have more people. The tiger is also afraid of people." Another shout came.
"Put down the things and follow me." Fang Guangzhang heard the commotion and let go of the horse. He took the crossbow from the horse and rushed over with the bow on his back.
The others let go of their crossbows. Five of them pulled out their swords. The handle fell off and the scabbard was directly attached to the back of the swords. The tip of the scabbard was exposed and the scabbard was twisted. The scabbard immediately turned into a cudgel.
This was designed by Li Yi for them to use when the cavalry was charging.
The brothers who had died in Song Zhou had been at a disadvantage when fighting the enemy cavalry because their weapons were too short.
With the addition of a section, the short weapons became long weapons.
Li Yi was still in the process of improving it. He wanted to connect the scabbard without moving the handle.
He needed an extra ring and a slot on the hilt, and an extra rod and a bayonet on the scabbard.
That pole could be designed as a sharpening stick, which could also be used to sharpen knives.
Just like a bayonet, as long as the scabbard was strong enough, it could become a long hilt.
Featherwood rushed over with such equipment. When they arrived, there were more than ten people. Some of them were holding sharpened wooden sticks, while others were holding stones.
Not far from them, there was a tiger eyeing them covetously. It did not seem to be afraid of this group of people and wanted to gain some benefits from them.
"Indeed, a pass should be built here. There are houses in the pass for people to guard and live in. When the people come over, they can rest in the pass."
Fang Guangzhang saw that there was no blood at the tiger's mouth, and the tiger did not fall down, so he was not in a hurry.
It was just a tiger. According to Dongzhu, such a 'small' tiger was called a South China tiger.
The five Cudgel Swordsmen came up. They stared at the tiger. When the tiger pounced, they made an assassination move.
Once he made contact with the tiger, he would let go of his hand and let the knife pierce into the tiger's body. There was no need to hold the knife and compete with the tiger in terms of strength.
"Is it a cub?" Fang Guangzhang could not see clearly and asked the locals.
"It's a male. Kill it. If you don't kill it, it will kill people."
The people from before ran to the back of the Yulin winged cavalry with stones and stood beside them with sticks.
Those who were familiar with the tiger were afraid that the soldiers would be soft-hearted.
Fang Guangzhang picked up the crossbow, and the other 14 people followed suit.
The tiger did not recognize this kind of crossbow. It wanted to find a chance to catch one and eat it.
"Three batches. One, three, six, nine, twelve. Shoot." Fang Guangzhang had no intention of protecting wild animals. After he shouted, he fired the crossbow.
The other four people fired together. Five arrows flew out and all hit the target.
"Roar!" The tiger roared and rushed over. South China tigers had a bad temper.
"Shoot!" Fang Guangzhang shouted again.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Another five arrows were shot. Three missed. The tiger moved up and down as it ran.
Of the two arrows that hit, one pierced its foreleg and the other pierced its eye.
"Shoot!" Fang Guangzhang shouted again.
Five arrows flew out. Three hit the target.
"Sword!"
"Ha!" The five people with sticks and swords took a step forward. The other 15 people took out their swords.
"Roar!" The tiger that was rushing forward suddenly lost its balance and rolled a few times.
"Kill!" The five people with sticks and swords rushed forward.
"Kill!" The people with sticks also rushed forward.
Fang Guangzhang and the others naturally took out their swords and rushed forward. When the tiger lost its balance, they used all kinds of methods to cut and stab it.
After a few seconds, the tiger was twitching on the ground. Its body was covered with blood.
"Dongzhu is a liar. He said that he drank too much and fought the tiger alone. How can he fight the tiger alone?"
One of the Winged Knights wiped the sweat off his forehead and said with fear.
"Dongzhu can. Dongzhu has a gun. If Dongzhu wants to fly, he can paralyze the tiger and put it in the zoo."
The other Featherwood Flying Cavalry felt that it was okay, but the premise was that the owner had to personally make a move.
"There are a lot of holes on the tiger's skin. Peel it off and bring it back to Dongzhu. In fact, if we hit the tiger's eyes, we can get the whole skin."
"If we are prepared, we can get the whole skin online."
"Tiger penis is good stuff."
"So is the tiger bone."
"Bring them all back. Let's eat the tiger meat. Soak it in cold water and then stew it."
After killing the tiger, the Winged Knights started to study the value of the tiger. They wanted to give the good stuff to Li Yi.
The people who were saved by the tiger: "…"
Where did these soldiers come from? Why were they not afraid of the tiger at all?
"You can go and get the reward. As long as you kill the tiger, leopard and other things, you can get the reward. You are … the Winged Knights?"
The man with the wooden spear looked at the clothes of the Winged Knights and guessed. He was illiterate.
But he had heard that the Winged Knights were the strongest soldiers in the Tang dynasty. They were not afraid of anything.
Zhang Jiuling and the others rushed over with their horses. He looked at the tiger that was lying motionless on the ground with a serious expression.
"Sergeant Fang, we need a good road here. If it weren't for you today, I don't know how many of the sixteen people would have survived."
Zhang Jiuling said to Fang Guangzhang. He was not happy.
It was a good thing that the people were saved. It was normal for twenty Winged Knights to kill a tiger.
He was thinking about the future. There were too many beasts and mosquitoes on the mountain.
"You are … Uncle Zishou?" A man in his thirties came out from the rescued people. He looked at Zhang Jiuling and shouted in surprise.
"Xiao Bang?" Zhang Jiuling recognized him.
Both of them were from the same place. They were from the same clan. They were ten years apart.
"Uncle Zishou." The man was so happy that he jumped like a child.
"Xiao Bang, come here. This is Sergeant Fang Guangzhang of the Winged Knights." Zhang Jiuling was also happy.
Zhang Jiuling was not stupid. He always helped the Winged Knights to become famous. They were His Majesty's private army.
The news of the Winged Knights killing a tiger today would spread quickly. Who knew what would happen if the news spread.
