Chapter 168: Transporting Supplies
Chapter 168 Delivery of Materials
Just when the Modao Regiment was busy with Zhang Luo Xiaocang's aftermath, the devils in Jingzhou delivered the goods on time. Akutagawa Kuroki personally escorted nine troop carriers out of the city with five hundred men.
Go all the way to the east, hand over the official road and then go south. The official road is not smooth due to perennial disrepair, and it staggers all the way forward.
"The front has entered the border of Quyang, everyone cheer up and pay attention to precautions, and let the driver drive the car as fast as possible!" Akutagawa Kuroki ordered.
The vehicle passed through a village and entered the Quyang territory. The speed slowly increased, and the soldiers were also watching and listening in all directions, paying attention to the movements around them.
The journey was fairly calm and there were no accidents. By ten o'clock in the evening, Quyang had already been bypassed, and Akutagawa Kuroki breathed a sigh of relief and finally got out of the danger zone. Twenty kilometers ahead was ordered to set up camp.
The vehicle stopped in an open area, and the soldiers set up their sentry posts to light a fire and cook their meals. After a long day's travel, the soldiers were so tired that they slept against the roots of the trees after eating dry food.
It wasn't until nearly two o'clock in the morning that a group of people dressed as bandits touched the camp! The sentry soldier was touched on the neck, quietly approached the devil to cover his mouth and wipe his neck, and shot with crossbow arrows, and after a while, most of the devils were killed and wounded.
"Big brother, the drivers in several cars have been resolved, now?"
"! These devils are knocked out one by one, hurry up! ”
"Just kill them all, and keep them is also a scourge!"
"We are trying to make money, not to kill people! There are a lot of devils, and besides, it's faster to knock out, don't waste time! ”
"Good!"
"Eight ......" A devil woke up by the alarmed soldiers, rubbed his eyes and felt that there was someone in the camp before he woke up, and just about to shout, he was slashed in the neck by a man with a knife! Fall to the ground!
After a while, the devil was overturned by the ministry, and the car was started and went all the way!
Until the sky was slightly bright, Akutagawa Kuroki was awakened by the breeze. Rubbing your eyes and turning your neck, Nani? The car is gone! On closer inspection, many of the soldiers were touched on the neck, the wounds had stopped bleeding and scabbed, apparently dead for a long time!
"Yaga!" Akutagawa Kuroki yelled. The soldier is awakened! I saw a mess on the camp, and I was stunned!
"Report Shaozuo, last night I was awakened in a daze and saw a group of bandit-like people appear in the camp! I was about to shout, but I was knocked unconscious! "The soldier reported.
"Bandits? Bandits also dare to rob the Imperial Army! Quick, chase down the rut! Akutagawa Kuroki ordered.
When did the bandits dare to rob the supplies of the imperial army, they really ate the bear's heart and leopard's gall! Be sure to follow the ruts to find the bandits' lair and destroy the bandits!
The soldiers pursued along the ruts, and the ruts on the dirt road were still obvious! Passing through a wheat field, the dirt road turned onto the road, and the ruts were gone! Looking at the left and right directions, Akutagawa Kuroki was dumbfounded!
"Chase twice in two directions, pay attention to observation along the way, and be sure to find out the bandits' lair!" There is no way to divide the troops to investigate.
The devil divided his troops and pursued them on both sides. Occasionally, horse-drawn carriages or automobiles pass by on the highway, and when you see devils, you will avoid them far away! It's hard to tell which one is the mark left by the devil's car on the highway, like looking for a needle in a haystack! Until noon, I searched for more than 20 kilometers and still didn't find anything! Akutagawa Kuroki knows it's hard to get it back!
"Yaga! Actually let the bandits rob the supplies, how is your camp arranged? It's a shame for Teijin! Yoshida yelled! It's not a shame to lose to the Modao Regiment, after all, there are so many imperial warriors who have been defeated, and there is not one more of them! But defeat to bandits, this is unacceptable no matter what!
Akutagawa Kuroki himself is difficult to accept, but there is no clue, and he doesn't know who to report if he wants to take revenge! I can only bite the bullet and say:
"Hey! The general taught a lesson! I'm going to deliver supplies again and lure the bandits to come and loot. Take them down in one fell swoop and reclaim the looted supplies! I beg the general for approval! Akutagawa Kuroki said stiffly. This is also the best way he thought of on the way back, after all, there is no news of bandits at all, and he can't find anyone!
"Huh? …… Lure bandits to rob again? Are you sure? Yoshida said.
"Hey! I am very sure that according to the soldier's report, there are not many bandits at all, and the clever design will definitely be able to take down the robbers and recapture the supplies in one fell swoop! Akutagawa Kuroki said.
"Yo Xi! That's right! How much supplies are you going to ship this time? How many escorts to bring? Yoshida also believes that the plan is feasible.
"The ministry is transported, with a thousand soldiers. After bypassing Quyang...... "Akutagawa Kuroki told him the plan.
"Yo Xi! I'm waiting for you in Jingzhou to triumph! Don't make a mistake this time! Yoshida said.
"Hey! We must live up to the high hopes of the general! Akutagawa Kuroki responded confidently.
The next day, Akutagawa Kuroki set out again, this time carrying sixteen carts of supplies and escorting a thousand men out of the city in a majestic manner. Careful vigilance all the way. The soldiers bypassed Quyang and divided into two routes, one to escort supplies and set up camp a few kilometers after passing the place where they had camped last time, and the other road followed the next kilometer, ready to support at any time.
Divided into two places, loose on the outside and tight on the inside, waiting for the bandits to take the bait. The soldiers, each leaning on the roots of the tree to eat and rest, everything looked so relaxed and natural.
Until the morning dawned, there was still no movement. Did the bandits resist the temptation and plan to give up this time? Akutagawa Kuroki, who hadn't slept all night, couldn't help but wonder, very depressed about the feeling of punching the air, and then watching the soldiers dozing one by one, obviously very drowsy but holding on.
Just when Akutagawa Kuroki thought that this trip was over, a group of rockets flew into the camp! The soldiers didn't have time to dodge, and dozens of them were killed by arrows!
"Enemy attack!" A ghost soldier shouted! The soldiers quickly got up from the ground and stood on guard one by one.
Akutagawa Kuroki raised his binoculars to take a closer look, and on the way here, a group of people dressed as bandits were approaching this way! Which team went to the back and where? Was it silently destroyed by bandits? How is this possible?
"Over here, fight back!" Akutagawa Kuroki ordered.
"Bang bang bang!" Gunshots rang out. But before a few shots were fired, a larger swarm of rockets flew over, taking away a large area of the enemy in an instant. Immediately followed by "Da Da! "Bang bang bang!" The two sides are in a pot of porridge!
After a while, "Woooo "The rocket flew again, the personnel decreased again, and when I turned around, there were less than a hundred people to hold on!
"Yaga! Driver! Drive first and keep supplies! Akutagawa Kuroki ordered. What kind of bandit is this? This is even more powerful than the army! Wait, army? Rocket? Mo Dao Tuan? This is the Mo Dao Group! Mother! It turned out to be a trick of the Modao Group! It's a pity that it was too late to understand!
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" The driver of the devil fell to the ground in response!
