Obviously, these disguised Shenwu soldiers did not regard the threat of death as a reason to panic, and they even calmly faced the predicament in front of them with a very tragic state of mind. Even Guo Youming is ashamed of this, in the face of this fearless performance, he even feels a little inferior, thinking about all the previous gains and losses, it is ridiculous and outrageous.

"Aren't you afraid of death?"

"Afraid of death?"

A soldier was very disdainful of Guo Youming's question and pouted.

"Who is not afraid of death? But my Shenwu Army has always been famous for daring to fight, how dare I easily fall into this hard-won prestige!"

This is a bit high-sounding, Guo Youming half disbelieves it in his heart, if the Shenwu Army does not have a generous pension policy, I am afraid that no one will be willing to die for it.

But although Daoli is like this, even if his brother's army is treated the same as the Shenwu army, I am afraid that half of them may not dare to fight.

After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly felt that there was a word that could not be more appropriate to describe it, and that was "spirit"!

Yes, it's spirit!

From the Shenwu army he saw, regardless of the generals and soldiers, they all had an indescribable spirit, as if their hearts were as open as the rising sun and the sea, and any difficulties seemed to be worth mentioning.

As he spoke, the horse bandits were getting closer and closer, and the chaotic and fierce sound of horses' hooves made all the captives tremble.

These captives are also battle-hardened warriors, and although they lost their courage because they were captured in battle, they still have battlefield experience after all. They all knew very well that with only two legs, they would never be able to outrun those horse bandits with one person with two horses or even one person with three horses.

The sound of whining became louder and louder with the dense sound of horses' hooves stepping on the ground, Guo Youming looked at it for a while, and found that he didn't know the banners of these people.

"Don't be afraid, we promised the prime minister, and we will protect you to see Guo Ziyi, if you die in vain, won't you fall into the prestige of my Shenwu Army?"

It was the warrior he had just spoken to comforted him.

is a simple sentence, and Guo Youming's panicked psychology is much more stable.

But the warrior then added.

"Unless we all fight and die!"

At this point, Guo Youming was much calmer and relieved, even those low-born Qiu Ba can face life and death so calmly, he can be regarded as having a good family background, how can he be inferior to them?

"If you die for me, I will not live alone!"

This is a bit of a sympathy.

Although their identities and statuses are very different, in the face of the common danger of life and death, they also unconsciously have some common hatred and hatred.

People's hearts are made of meat, and those warriors of the Shenwu Army can fight for themselves, so he doesn't want to be like a coward who just cares about living alone, no matter what the other party's purpose of fighting for himself is.

"Okay!, the Guo family brothers are also good men! My name is Li Wu, and I will be called the tuba directly in the future!"

Ordinary soldiers did not have the thoughts and prejudices of those upper echelons, and they distinguished whether a person was good or bad, or liked or disliked a person, and most of them came from this simplest impression.

At the beginning, these soldiers of the Shenwu Army still looked down on Guo Youming, thinking that he was a guy who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and judging from his performance just now and now, it seems that he is not a coward.

The horse bandits did not come quickly, compared to the sound of horses' hooves like a torrent of thunder, and their offensive was slow to take off.

"These horse bandits are also strange, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, aren't they bluffing?"

Li Wu was a little impatient.

"The horse bandits are not bluffing, they are boiling, and our morale and the last bit of courage to fight are exhausted!"

Guo Youming looked at the slow attack of the horse bandits and made his judgment, he has been in the Western Regions for some days, and he has also dealt with horse bandits, so he knows some of the style of the horse bandits in this area of the river.

One of the benefits of this is that you can get as many results as possible with as few casualties as possible!

The leading Shenwu Army soldier sneered for a while.

"It's just a horse bandit, it's not enough to part with life and death. Li Wu, show the military flag of the Shenwu Army!

This is extremely domineering, if they have three or five hundred warriors around them, Guo Youming does not think that this is stupid talk. But look at the people around them, except for a dozen warriors armed with horizontal swords and a few spears, they are all dejected prisoners, how can they fight against the horse bandits with thousands of horses?

Guo Youming was about to stop it, but Li Wu took out the scarlet from the cloth bag in the north and stood up, tied it to the head of the spear and erected it high, and waved it twice vigorously against the strong wind on the Gobi.

In the face of this kind of "self-sufficient" behavior, Guo Youming did not hold out any hope in his heart, but felt that he was afraid that doing so would bring more shame, nothing more.

However, the sound of chirping trumpets suddenly came from the horse bandits' herd, which was short and urgent, and then all the war horses stopped in the shortest possible time and lined up.

Guo Youming was greatly stunned, and didn't understand what was happening among the horse bandits, but he saw a horse bandit wearing iron armor rushing over here under the support of more than a dozen guards.

Their target was clearly the location of the Shenwu Army's banner.

The captives had long been frightened and trembled like chaff, and although only a dozen people rushed over, none of them dared to rush forward desperately, and they all dodged a path.

The horse bandit came smoothly to Guo Youming and the others.

The leader was a man who appeared to be a Turkic or possibly a Tieler, who could not be distinguished by his clothing and appearance alone.

"Dare to ask if your army is the Shenwu Army of the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty?"

The leader who ordered Li Wu to display the military flag was not afraid, and responded loudly:

"Exactly! Our team is under the leadership of the prime minister, escorting the prisoners to Shiguo!"

In addition to showing his identity and his mission, he didn't even say half a polite word, and even his expression was obviously arrogant.

"It turned out to be the Tang Shenwu Army, we didn't see it clearly and acted hastily, your army, please rest assured, if there is anything we need to help, we will definitely help!"

The communication between the two sides was Turkic, and Guo Youming didn't know much Turkic, so he only listened to it, but judging from the tone and look between the two, it must not have collapsed.

After a few words, the two sides had a simple and clear exchange, and the leader of the horse bandits decided to personally follow and escort them with dozens of guards.

The small leader of the Shenwu Army did not object, which can be said to be a kind of polite surveillance, and it is not allowed to refuse.

Even so, Guo Youming was shocked by this, and he couldn't imagine that a small flag would be so effective!
