The Tanma Battalion was stationed at the foot of the North Mountain for five days, and during these five days, except for the occasional fighting between scouts and scouts between the two armies, there was not much difference.

"Damn, I'm almost sick!"

Zhang Chongshan wiped the short crossbow in his hand a little boredly, and in the past five days, several of them seemed to have been forgotten by the captain.

The normal scout patrol also seems to have bypassed them intentionally or unintentionally.

The other four veterans around Zhang Chongshan who were promoted to Wu Commander because of Tang Ming didn't say anything, but their expressions also revealed a kind of annoyance.

For these soldiers, what they are most afraid of after going to the battlefield is not facing thousands of troops, but being as calm as they are in front of them.

"Head, can you go to the lieutenant and talk to him, it's really not okay, let's also be a scout patrol!"

Zhang Chongshan looked at Tang Ming, who was not moving beside him, and said with a bitter face.

When the others heard Zhang Chongshan's suggestion, they all looked at Tang Ming with bright eyes.

The previous attack in the woods made them all taste the sweetness, not to mention the title of this captain, just the reward for those heads, which was enough to make them crazy.

The laws of the dynasty stipulate that anyone who kills the enemy's ordinary warriors will be rewarded with thirty taels of silver.

Thirty taels of silver, if this is placed in Shangyu Village, it will be a young and strong man who goes to sea to sell his life.

Last time, he killed a total of 12 scouts, and got 360 taels of silver.

But Tang Ming didn't take a penny, and distributed all these rewards to the five people who followed him to spy on the enemy.

"Yes, head, if you stay like this, your waist knife will rust!"

The others saw that Tang Ming didn't speak, and then they all stepped forward and said to Tang Ming cautiously.

Tang Ming was also a little strange, since that day, Du Wei seemed to deliberately avoid himself as a standard.

Even the position of their standard people in the horse exploration camp has undergone some subtle changes.

At the beginning, they set up camp on the right side of the camp, and in addition to patrolling, they also had to guard against enemy attacks in the mountains and forests on the right.

However, just after the lieutenant left the Tanma camp, the lieutenant placed his own target in the center of the camp on the grounds of adjusting the garrison, which was only ten steps away from the camp's tent.

It's as if they were some kind of baby bump, and they were hidden in the safest place in the Tanma camp by the captain.

Just because of the twelve scouts he killed?

Tang Ming shook his head, such a reason was too far-fetched, although the Tanma Battalion was not the top elite of the Dynasty, it was impossible for such a record to be so valued by the first battalion captain.

Woowoo......

Just as Tang Ming was about to turn around and go to the big tent, there was a rush of horns among the Chinese army.

Those old pawns who were still complaining to Tang Ming before, at the moment when the horn sounded, hung up their swords and crossbows with lightning speed.

The 800 men of the Tanma Camp were neatly arranged on the school grounds in just a few breaths after the horn sounded.

After a while, the lieutenant stood on the sub-general platform with a pale face, looking at the eight hundred old soldiers who were silent in front of him.

Just before the Malay reported that the whereabouts of the 6,000 foot soldiers in the northern foothills of the Nanmang army were unknown, and the general suspected that they had infiltrated the northern foothills of the mountain range.

And in the army of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, only they were in the northern foothills, so this time, how many of these eight hundred old soldiers could survive, Du Wei didn't count in his heart.

"Starting today, eighty people in the battalion will make a mark and scatter into the northern foothills, but if you encounter the soldiers of the south, you will immediately turn your horse and report back!"

The Lieutenant handed the nine arrows in his hand into the hands of the centurions who were standing in the lead.

Zhang Chongshan stretched his neck slightly, and when he saw that Tang Ming had no arrow in his hand, his eyes showed a look of disappointment.

"Tang Ming!"

"The last general!"

Hearing the lieutenant call out Tang Ming's name, the captains under Tang Ming were all unconscious.

Thinking about it, when the six of them went out, they could quietly kill twelve scouts, and now this kind of thing to spy on the northern foothills, they couldn't be more suitable.

Du Wei handed over the last arrow in his hand to Tang Ming, and Zhang Chongshan saw this scene and immediately straightened his chest.

"Let you lead a bid to exit the northern foothills, and answer the callback to the horses outside the northern foothills!"

After the lieutenant finished speaking, not to mention that Tang Ming was puzzled, even the captains behind him were shocked.

If you don't need to put an elite standard of people like them, what kind of egg response do you do?

"Yes!"

Although Tang Ming had doubts, he still took the arrow.

This is the truth that Zhang Chongshan taught him after returning from the attack and killing the scouts, and in the army, the most taboo thing is to disobey military orders.

A battalion of men and horses was distributed, and the lieutenant and the overseer also served as scouts among one of the standard men.

"Head, what do you think of this captain, let's do what Lao Shizi answers, isn't this nonsense!"

Zhang Chongshan walked behind Tang Ming dejectedly, and he was a little depressed when he failed to patrol the northern foothills.

Tang Ming shook his head, he couldn't figure it out now, it seemed that Du Wei's behavior in the past few days was very different from before, revealing a strangeness everywhere.

Just as they were about to cross the first line of heaven, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Tang Ming's mind, and the figure of Liu Zhenyu, the captain of the Xiao Cavalry, appeared in his mind.

Tang Ming suddenly realized, it turned out that it was because of his identity that Du Wei did not dare to let himself easily get into danger.

Think about it, a dignified cavalry captain, in charge of the three thousand elite iron horsemen in the Imperial Fish Knife Forbidden Army, his identity is extraordinary.

How could you come to a disgraced horse camp for no reason?

And since Liu Zhenyu left, Du Wei's attitude has changed dramatically, just like letting himself withdraw from the northern foot today, which is a disguised way not to put himself in danger.

However, although he figured out the key to this, Tang Ming was still helpless.

In the midst of the march, military orders are like mountains.

He now has no choice but to pick up the Tanma outside the sky.

"How do I know what he thinks, you are so curious, why didn't you ask the lieutenant in person when he was on the school field!"

Tang Ming rolled his eyes angrily and said to Zhang Chongshan.

"Well, when the war drums sounded, and the three armies lined up in the school field, the refuge Shangguan was going to be killed. ”

Zhang Chongshan cried with a sad face, he wanted to ask, but after all, he only had a head on his neck.

"Then shut up!"

Tang Ming flashed and walked in the front, because of the defense, their speed was very fast, and in the evening, they had already reached a line of heaven.

Three days have passed.

In this scattered day, not to mention the people who answered the report back to Ma, they didn't even see a ghost.

Zhang Chongshan and the other veterans looked more and more ugly.

Tang Ming also vaguely felt that an invisible pressure was brewing in his standard people.

And in the northern foothills and forests, which were only fifty miles away from them, the bloody battle had lasted for three days.

Of the eight hundred people in the horse exploration camp, except for Tang Ming and them, the rest of them were almost dead.

"It's not a way to go on like this, Zhang Chongshan, are you five willing to go to the northern foot with me to investigate?"

In the humble military tent, Tang Ming looked at the five familiar military commanders in front of him, and said after a moment of silence.

"Head, we still have the commander's order on us, just leave the line of heaven like this, this is a sin to lose your head!"

Although Lao Li was also a little moved after listening to Tang Ming's suggestion, he was born rigid and still knew the stakes involved.

"Then you stay here and wait for the report to return to Ma, the four of us will go to the northern foot with the head to have a look, and take off the heads of the Nanmang soldiers, and count it as your share!"

As soon as Zhang Chongshan heard Tang Ming's suggestion, he immediately came to his senses, but he also understood that Lao Li's worries were not unreasonable.

"The general is outside, the king's order is not affected! This matter is decided!"

As soon as Tang Ming made a decision, the others no longer objected.

Lao Li stayed outside the first line of heaven to answer the report of returning to Ma Tan, and Tang Ming took Zhang Chongshan and the four of them to the northern foothills.

Under the cover of night, the four of them quietly entered the dense mountain forest at the northern foothills.

After walking only about two miles, Tang Ming saw a lot of corpses piled up in the distance, and the heads of these corpses were all taken off.

"Head, it's our people from the horse camp!"

Zhang Chongshan walked into the headless corpses, and after inspecting them, he said to Tang Ming in a cold voice.

"This is only two miles away from my first line of heaven, and since the battlefield of the battle has been moved here, it means that the eight hundred robes may have ......."

Behind Zhang Chongshan, a man who was no more than twenty-three or fourteen years old analyzed with a cold expression.

"Follow me!"

Tang Ming's eyes swept over the corpses, then he clenched the waist knife in his hand, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.

The four of them followed, and their figures quickly shuttled through the bushes and dense forests, silently.

......

Sou!

A slight sound pierced through the dense woods, and a Nanmang soldier who was originally bending forward was shot through the entire head by a sharp crossbow arrow before he could react.

The powerful penetrating force carried him out and slammed into a big tree.

The Nanmang soldiers who were originally scattered around this soldier, the moment they were shot in the robe, not only were they not afraid, but they used the surrounding environment to completely hide themselves in the extreme time.

The woods fell silent again, and all the soldiers in the area held their breath.

They are not raw melons and eggs, and they know that whoever can't hold their breath first at this time will have to die!

Everything seemed to be calm, Tang Ming put away the crossbow in his hand, and the waist knife was slowly unsheathed.

In the woods in front of them were a total of nine Nanmang scouts.

They were all veterans of a hundred battles, and after Tang Ming killed the standard commander, everyone dispersed and hid as soon as possible.

In the silence of the woods, a faint murderous aura began to permeate the narrow woods.

can come here alive, whether it is Nanmang's military soldiers or the robes of the Tanma Battalion, they are not simple characters.

The fight between scouts is especially bloody.

Compared to the battle between the two armies on the battlefield, the game between scouts seems to be difficult to arouse interest.

But the marching people would rather be outnumbered on the battlefield than be scouts and horses, and even die silently.

As a scout, he never knew when a deadly stray arrow would suddenly fly through his head.

Tang Ming held the waist knife in his hand in his mouth, his body moved, and disappeared in place silently.

At the same time, the four of Zhang Chongshan, who were hidden in the distance, also raised their crossbows at this time, staring at the seemingly ordinary trees not far away.

People on both sides are tense, and at this time, the slightest fluctuation will become the most fatal drawback.

Killing, on the verge of triggering!
