Chapter 1473: Trap (3)
Lei Ming glanced at Tang Feng, saw him nodding, and immediately said with a serious face: "He is not a traitor, but our hero!" β
After saying this, he showed a flirtatious smile again: "Our hero is your third lieutenant colonel, hehe, I believe that the brigade he led should be wiped out by now, right?" You must know that it is the mountain group that encircles and suppresses them. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ infoβ
As soon as he heard this, the colonel's old man immediately spurted a mouthful of blood, and the soldiers' faces immediately changed greatly, the traitor was actually the third lieutenant colonel!
Although I don't want to believe it, I think that the proposal to ambush the mountain bandits this time was suggested by the third lieutenant colonel, and the intelligence was also sent by the third lieutenant colonel to explore, and now he is ambushed by the enemy, saying that it has nothing to do with the third lieutenant colonel, it really doesn't make sense.
Pushing away the soldiers who were supporting him, the colonel wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, stared at Tang Feng and asked in a deep voice, "Actually dispatched the mountain regiment?" Do you want to invade in a big way? β
Tang Feng smiled: "Invasion? No, we are not so arrogant yet, at this stage we are only occupying the surrounding mountainous and forested area, and we are not interested in other places for the time being. Of course, only temporarily. β
Lei Ming said a little impatiently: "Okay, dead old man, now that you know everything, what's the matter?" I'm going to escort you, the Imperial Colonel, back to boast about my martial arts, young master. As he spoke, he waved his hand, and several strong men around him took out ropes and prepared to come and tie them.
The old man's weak body suddenly straightened up, and he drew his blade and sneered: "I have been in the army for decades, and I have never been captured. War! β
The soldiers immediately raised their swords in high morale and shouted: "Fight! β
Lei Ming shook his head disdainfully and said, "Fool! As he spoke, he drew his blade.
Seeing this, the old colonel was stunned for a moment.
"I didn't expect you, the young master, to have the courage, looking at your dress and appearance, I thought you would hide behind."
Lei Ming sneered, and said with an arrogant face: "Hide behind? Joke! My Shanyue tribe is based on martial arts, and no man has ever died of illness in bed!
"How do you think my status as the young master of the tribe came about? Although I like fancy clothes and food, and I love cleanliness and exquisiteness, these are not because I am a young master, but because I am the first person in the tribe today! β
Hearing this, the colonel's expression darkened, and he was deeply worried about the empire that he had served all his life.
Look at a young tribal master, who is equivalent to the heir of a prominent nobleman of the empire, who actually came to the border to fight far away from his family, and faced the enemy without fear and enthusiasm.
And what about the contemporary nobles of the empire? Running horses, drinking alcohol, fighting and drinking, fighting and brawling, and doing things that disturb the people's hearts.
If this continues, sooner or later the empire will be swallowed up by other forces!
"Uncle, will you leave this battle to your nephew?" Lei Ming pleaded with Tang Feng.
Tang Feng nodded with a smile.
Although since he became the head of the mountain, he broke away from the original tribe and belonged to the entire Shanyue tribe, and the original tribal name was also abandoned. But the blood of the tribe still exists, and the previous mountain leaders also took care of the tribe they came from more or less, and of course they couldn't avoid it.
Now seeing his son and nephew in such a demeanor, Tang Feng is still very pleased.
Lei Ming, who had obtained consent, immediately shouted: "Let these imperial people know the bravery of our Shanyue tribe, and if we duel with them one-on-one, we will let the victor let them go, so as to show the broad mind of our Shanyue tribe!" β
"Yes!"
The bandits surrounding the old colonel immediately shouted, and then quickly vacated a large circle, and the blades were all put away.
Corresponding to the remnants of the Fifth Wing, including the thunder, hundreds of strong men came out of the surrounding mountain bandits.
These strong men naturally gave up the old colonel to Lei Ming, and they each selected a soldier of the fifth wing and stood face to face.
The soldiers of the 5th Wing also knew that this was an opportunity to gain life, or to pull an enemy into the water, and they were not stupid enough to take advantage of the opportunity to break through.
It is a joke that hundreds of people have broken through the siege of tens of thousands, and it will make the enemy laugh at his weakness. In that case, it is better to show the majesty of the Imperial Army to the best of your ability.
Lei Ming walked up to the old colonel with a knife and said with a big grin: "Old man, don't blame me for bullying you, who told you that this old guy is over sixty years old and can still raise a knife to charge." β
The colonel smiled slightly: "Hmph, little guy, don't underestimate the old man, don't blame me for not reminding you later." β
"Hmph, old fellow, you've got a good tongue. I don't bother to talk to you too much! Look at the knives! "Thunder raised his knife and slashed.
And the old colonel knew that his physical strength could not be compared with the young man, so he didn't touch him, but just turned the blade, and when the thunderous knife was led to the side by the old man, the old man took advantage of the situation to drag the knife and flip it up, slashing towards the thundering chest.
Lei Ming immediately retracted his elbow and slammed the old man's blade with the hilt of his knife, and with a bang, the two quickly separated.
Lei Ming, who felt a cold sweat on his back, couldn't help but say: "Old man, you are insidious enough, you know that your strength is not as good as mine, so you compare the sword with me." β
"Hey, little one, you have a set too, but this is not a sword position, I have been fighting on the battlefield for decades, and I have long forgotten the fixed knife position. Again! The old man smiled and swung his sword again.
"Come on, come! Young master, I'm still afraid of you, a bad old man? Not to be outdone, Thunder pounced.
Only after Tang Feng, who was watching the battle, heard the old man's words, he raised his eyebrows, took a step forward, and watched intently.
Unlike the non-stop battle on Lei Ming's side, the other hundreds of teams fought for each other, all of which were one life for one life, so the battle ended quickly.
The soldiers of the Fifth Wing who survived were indeed strong, and there were seventy or eighty victories.
The bandits present all looked ugly, but since it was a fair duel, they did not embarrass the survivors, but made way as agreed.
The soldiers looked at each other, and the five soldiers ran quickly towards the passage, and after the figures of the five soldiers disappeared, the other soldiers not only did not continue to leave, but stepped forward and shouted around: "Who challenged us?" β
The mountain bandits, who had originally despised the five fleeing soldiers, now understood what was going on when they heard this, these people had decided to die here, and the five soldiers were sent back to report the situation.
The bandits stood in awe, did not discuss much, and walked out of a group of bandits equal to the number of surviving soldiers.
At the end of the second round of the competition, there were about 40 surviving soldiers, and after taking a breath, they continued to challenge with their heads held high. The mountain bandits also sent men again.
Just by looking at the appearance, you can see that the people sent by the mountain bandits are getting stronger and stronger, and after the end of the third round, the number of surviving soldiers dropped sharply, and less than ten survived.
Seeing these scarred soldiers, they still stood up and shouted: "Who challenged us? The bandits were silent, and everyone could understand that these soldiers could no longer hold on, and believed that any one of them could knock them down.
Just when none of the mountain bandits were willing to come out to pick up the bargain, Lei Ming's side also divided the winners and losers.
Relying on the thunder of his strong body, he found an opportunity and stabbed the old colonel in the stomach with a quick knife.
Originally, fighting with a knife should have cut off the opponent's head, but I don't know why, when he started, Lei Ming subconsciously changed it to a stab.
The old colonel looked at the knife on his stomach and smiled at Lei Ming: "Little guy, if I were ten years younger, I would have cut off your head a long time ago." β
Covered in scars, Lei Ming nodded: "I admit this." Old man, where is your family? I'll send your body back. β
"No need, the habit of Imperial soldiers is to die and bury." When the old man said this, he looked back at his men, smiled, closed his eyes, and collapsed.
The few remaining soldiers immediately knelt on the ground and shouted, "Sir, wait a minute! Then, without hesitation, he drew his knife and fell to the ground.
Seeing this tragic scene, the mountain bandits were all stunned and did not speak, and it took a while for a sigh to sound.
"Uncle, my nephew is incompetent, it took such a long time to kill this old man, please punish my uncle." Lei Ming pleaded guilty to Tang Feng.
Tang Feng shook his head and smiled: "You did a good job, although the other party is old, he is still a brave man, worthy of our admiration, don't cut off their heads and bury them thickly." β
"Yes, our Shanyue tribe admires such a warrior the most, and we will definitely bury it." Lei Ming nodded and said.
With the order, the mountain bandits began to clean up the battlefield, and the uncle and nephew stood on a high place and watched quietly. After a while, Lei Ming suddenly asked, "Uncle, are all the imperial frontier troops so fierce and brave?" β
Tang Feng glanced at Lei Ming and asked, "Are you scared?" β
Lei Ming* paused, nodded and said, "Yes, although my nephew doesn't want to admit it, my nephew is really afraid of encountering such a fierce and brave imperial army again. β
Tang Feng sighed and said: "Yes, the empire is so huge, the army is so numerous, I am not afraid to hit you, the number of the imperial army is almost one-fifth of our total population." And the number of these imperial armies is only a drop in the ocean for the population of the empire. β
Thunder was speechless.
As the young master of the tribe, he still knows these situations. Thinking of the empire's population calculated in hundreds of millions, the scalp will be numb, and the population of all the tribes of the Shanyue tribe combined is not as good as a fraction of the empire, if it were not for the geographical advantage, I am afraid that it would have been annexed by the empire long ago.
In fact, if you look at the map, you can see that the countries adjacent to the Augustus Empire, except for the free alliance, which relied on strength to confront the empire, other countries relied on geographical advantages to stop the expansion of the empire.
It is also because of this concern that all the countries adjacent to the empire regard the empire as their greatest enemy, and will start wars to weaken the empire at every opportunity.
