Chương 19: Chapter 19: First Battle with the Arapaho
"Yes." Ma Shao smiled and nodded. Not long after obtaining the Black Blade, he mastered the same skill as his father and could use a whistle to summon a warhorse.
"You really live up to your name. You must be the bravest warrior on the battlefield," said the long stick.
Ma Shao thought that the name "Changgun" was more appropriate for the person. He was tall and thin, and really looked like a stick. However, since they were not familiar with each other, he did not say this.
He just smiled and said, "I hope so. In fact, this is my first time on the battlefield."
"First time?" Long Stick was a little surprised. In his opinion, only teenagers among the Apaches could go to the battlefield for the first time.
"I am thirteen years old." Ma Shao guessed his thoughts and explained.
"Thirteen!"
There were fifty or sixty people present, and they were all surprised when they heard this.
In this era when the average height of human males is only about 1.6 meters or even shorter, Ma Shao is taller than most adults and has well-developed muscles. He looks like a brave young man no matter how you look at him.
It can almost be said to be a supernatural event that a thirteen-year-old boy has grown into this physique.
"My student is indeed only thirteen years old. This is a fact. The Great Spirit has endowed him with extraordinary powers and talents." Stone Crow said. Although his expression remained calm, there was still a hint of Versailles in his tone.
Of course, he didn't do this to show off his student in front of others, at least not just for this. He really believed that Ma Shao had been blessed by the Great Spirit.
Ma Shao felt a little embarrassed to hear this, but others firmly believed that Shi Ya was a trusted shaman, so people looked at Ma Shao with a little more envy and even admiration in their eyes.
Everyone chatted for a while, then Ma Shao was encouraged to whistle a few more times, and the long sticks followed suit and beat the drums.
But this was a military camp after all, and there were still some disciplines. So before late at night, the people of the Mianxiong clan had to rest.
They had just arrived here and were not assigned any patrol or tasks, so they could have a good rest for the night. But tomorrow, their good days would be over.
In fact, there is no waiting until tomorrow.
Just a few hours later, late at night, a battle broke out without warning.
"Arapaho!"
"Attack! Attack!"
The shouting in the camp broke everyone's sweet dreams, including those of the Sleeping Bear Clan's warriors.
Ma Shao turned over and sat up, feeling his head buzzing, not because he was awakened, but because it was his first time to participate in a battle.
Since his rebirth, he has killed two people, but one was a white man who was frightened by the sight of his rebirth, and the other was a panicked horse thief, which was not the same as war at all.
Now, the real war has arrived!
Ma Shao felt unprecedented emotional fluctuations when he first came to war. Adrenaline was secreted like crazy, making him feel no fatigue after just waking up.
"Beep--" He blew a huge whistle like a whistle, calling the nearby Black Blade.
When Ma Shao rushed out of the tent, Hei Feng arrived just in time. He jumped on the horse, drew his bow and arrow, and looked ahead.
In the dark night, the attacking Arapaho attacked the Apache camp. Under the light of torches, Ma Shao saw about thirty or forty enemies nearby.
Similar to the Apache, the Arapaho used bows and arrows and stone axes as their primary weapons. They rode their horses at full speed in the night, shooting arrows everywhere.
"Woo-woo-woo--" The battlefield was filled with the screams of both sides, which sounded a bit like the calls of monkeys. This might be a custom that has been passed down by humans for millions of years.
An Arapaho broke through the line and, with a torch in his hand, rushed at full speed toward a tent, apparently intending to set it on fire.
Ma Shao discovered him in time, pulled the bowstring to its full extent, and then the sharp arrow shot out!
Due to the excitement and nervousness of participating in the battle for the first time, the arrow's accuracy was a little off, and it did not hit the opponent's head as expected, but instead hit the opponent's horse.
"Whig——" The horse let out a wail and fell to the ground after being pierced by a sharp arrow.
The Arapaho on its back fell off as well, but righted himself in time and was not apparently hurt.
After the horse whistle missed the target, he immediately kicked the horse's belly and galloped forward, swinging the "meteor axe" in his hand. The rotating stone axe made a "whoosh" sound in the air.
Seizing the opportunity, he suddenly let go and the stone axe flew out!
"Ah!" The Arapaho man hurriedly got up from the ground and was about to pick up a torch when he let out a scream and could not get up anymore. He was hit on the back by a stone axe, and one could even see his split spine from the wound.
Ma Shao quickly pulled back the Meteor Axe, bent the bow and drew the arrow again, aiming at the enemy not far away.
"Swish——" This time his aim was good and the arrow hit the opponent's face, penetrating into the opponent's skull through the nose, killing him on the spot.
Killing two enemies in a row is a good record, especially for a new recruit who is just entering the battlefield.
Ma Shao couldn't help but become more excited.
But his excitement did not last for two seconds before a sharp arrow flew from nowhere and grazed his scalp, making him instantly shudder and break out in a cold sweat.
This is a battlefield!
The battlefield is full of murderous intent and anyone can die at any time.
The awareness and skills to save your life are as important as killing the enemy, or even more important.
Thinking of this, Ma Shao immediately cleared all the intense emotions in his mind and forced himself to remain calm.
Strong emotions can sometimes have unexpected magical effects, but calmness and rationality are the lasting kings.
After regaining his composure, Ma Shao's various advantages were fully utilized.
Thanks to long-term scientific diet and exercise, he has strong strength and endurance, keen vision, hearing and reaction ability.
He was also equipped with stirrups and a strong bow, and the horse he rode was also a strong and fierce Black Blade.
On the entire battlefield, no one is stronger than him. He is the most powerful guy here!
One arrow, two arrows, three arrows, four arrows, five arrows...
Five arrows fired in a row, five people killed in a row!
At this time, some Arapaho had vaguely realized that there seemed to be an unusually strong guy in the Apache camp opposite.
But they were unable to determine who the sharpshooter was.
It was dark now, and visibility was already very poor. Moreover, the horse whistle was riding a pure black horse, which was semi-invisible in the night.
There was another reason. Ma Shao didn't have a single feather on his head. At first glance, he was a new recruit on the battlefield. No one could have imagined that a new recruit would be so fierce.
So Ma Shao shot and killed about ten people with almost no resistance. Occasionally someone attacked him, but he was no match at all. He crushed them both in close combat and at a distance.
In addition to him, the other warriors of the Sleeping Bear Clan, who were also equipped with stirrups and strong bows, performed very well. Their combat effectiveness was obviously superior to others, and they soon completely defeated the Arapaho people in this area.
