Chapter 696: Layout of the Khitan (4)

"Did you really encounter a robbery?"

Looking at the group of people who surrounded the caravan, Li Chang was a little speechless, he didn't expect to be afraid of something.

The cavalry in front of him looked like a group of stragglers, holding inferior weapons and riding inferior war horses, and I don't know where the horse bandits came out.

Such bandits are very common outside the city, some of them are themselves people of small tribes, and more are those who have been driven out by the tribe and have fallen into the grass and wandered around.

"Captain Li, what now?"

Beside Li Chang, a young knight quietly came to his side and asked in a low voice.

The people of this caravan were divided into three groups: one group was the caravan under He Dong, and those in charge and the grooms were all He Dong's people; One is the Jinyi Wei led by Li Chang, which belongs to the Lulong Branch, and there are not many people, only a dozen people, not to take the opportunity to install people in the various tribes outside the Saiwai, but just to take this opportunity to find out the situation of these tribes outside the Saiwai, and then make plans.

As for the third group, it was Liu Rengong's men, a total of 300 people, which was more than half of the group of cavalry armed with sophisticated weapons.

"No hurry, it's not something we should worry about." Li Chang said in a low voice.

Nominally, their group was just the guards of the caravan, and they shouldn't behave in a particularly unusual way at this time.

The steward of the caravan knew about them, but Liu Rengong's people didn't.

However, the people of the Jinyi Guard all subconsciously approached Li Chang, and their right hands touched the handle of the knife on the horse's back, if the situation was not right, they could draw their knives and fight at any time.

Of course, the people of Jinyiwei are not really good at frontal combat, they are good at intelligence and assassination.

Just when Jin Yiwei was worried, the head of the caravan, a thin but shrewd-looking man, rode up to the team, followed by a guide and interpreter who was looking for in Youzhou.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are a caravan heading north, not an army, I hope you can make it easier." The caravan steward bowed and said.

"What caravan? What we are robbing is the caravan, brothers, there must be good things on the carts of these Tang people, kill me and rob them of all their things! ”

Here, before the caravan steward had finished listening to the translation, he saw that the horse bandits on the opposite side had already ridden over and killed, and the steward's face suddenly changed greatly.

"Block them!"

"Block them!"

"Kill me!"

Seeing that this group of horse bandits didn't give a chance to discuss at all, Li Chang was also a little surprised, and immediately took out a horizontal knife from his horse and gave an order to the dozen brocade guards around him, and then quickly killed.

Unlike others, he was originally from the military, and he naturally would not be afraid of horse bandits.

The three hundred cavalry sent by Liu Rengong was a little hesitant, after all, there were more than 500 horse bandits, but seeing that the guards of the accompanying caravan and those horsemen took out their weapons one after another, they also threw themselves into battle.

In particular, those grooms took out bows and arrows and horizontal knives directly from under the car, and the proficiency was obviously expected to cause accidents.

Here, Li Chang rushed into the middle of the horse bandits with more than a dozen brocade guards and more than 20 guards, holding a horizontal knife to slash left and right.

Although their current knives are not the sabers of the Jinyi Guard, nor are they the horizontal knives of the military standard, they are not bad, at least they are better than the weapons of the horse bandits in front of them.

Li Chang's more than 30 people are like a tiger descending from the mountain, and they are like entering a no-man's land in the horse bandit team. Everywhere they passed, the horse bandits fell off their horses one after another, killing the surrounding horse bandits who did not dare to approach at all.

And after them, the three hundred Youzhou cavalry also followed, and the difference between the army and the bandits was soon reflected.

In addition, the cavalry of the Lu Long Army against the Khitan, Xi and other tribes all the year round has rich experience, and for a time they killed the horse bandits crying and calling their mothers.

Some of the bandits who had killed the convoy were also forced back by the bows and arrows of the remaining guards and grooms.

The leader of the horse bandits didn't expect this caravan to be a hard bone, so difficult to gnaw, and was a little surprised, although he was greedy, but when he saw the heavy losses on his side, he had the intention of retreating.

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

This group of horse bandits came and went quickly, and as for those who died in the hands of the caravan, they gave it up without hesitation.

Just before the caravan could finish cleaning the battlefield, a puff of smoke and dust suddenly appeared in the distance, and in the smoke, a cavalry of thousands of people appeared in everyone's sight.

Seeing the cavalry, which was stronger than the horse bandits before, everyone in the caravan was a little desperate.

It's too chaotic, isn't it, why are there so many horse bandits?

Even the caravan steward and Li Chang all showed timidity, or should they run?

。。。。。。

"Big brother, I brought back a caravan from the south!"

In the Shatuo Department, where the Dongxi people gathered, Meng Zhixiang led more than 1,000 cavalry under his tent back to the tribe, and then happily came to Li Siyuan's big tent. Recommended ReadingTV//

It should be mentioned here that after fleeing to Dongxi, Li Siyuan, An Chongzhi and Meng Zhixiang became brothers of the opposite sex.

Li Siyuan is naturally the boss, An Chongzhi is the second, and Meng Zhixiang is the third.

The reason why he bowed was because Li Siyuan felt that these two people were extraordinary, and if they were ordered by his subordinates, it would be difficult to be of one mind, so he bowed to the two of them, so that the two of them could have one heart with him.

Now that this Shatuo tribe in Dongxi is developing so fast, in addition to Li Siyuan, An Chongzhi and Meng Zhixiang are also indispensable.

This Shatuo department has a total of 6,000 accounts, Li Siyuan himself governs 4,000 accounts, and An Chongzhu and Meng Zhixiang each have 1,000 accounts.

"Caravans?"

Li Siyuan walked out of the big tent and saw a somewhat embarrassed convoy outside the tribe. However, the tribesmen have surrounded this caravan, not to disadvantage the caravan, but mainly to buy something. TV updates the fastest //

Due to the constant war outside the country, there are not many business trips, and many times it is extremely inconvenient to venture to the border of the Tang people to buy some necessities. This suddenly came a caravan, and the popularity can be imagined.

This is also the reason why the previous horse bandits wanted to rob the caravan and pull these things to the grassland or the Bohai Sea to sell, and directly made a lot of money.

However, the sharp-eyed Li Siyuan also saw the difference in this caravan, it was guarded by cavalry, and it had experienced a big battle before, because many people were still injured, and there were blood stains or something.

"This caravan is not simple! Bao Yin (Meng Zhixiang's character), it won't be you forcibly brought back, right? Li Siyuan asked with a smile.

"Big brother, I did think so, but their injuries have nothing to do with me. It was they who had met a horse bandit before, and as soon as they repelled the horse bandits, I discovered them, and it happened that they were in business, so they were brought to the tribe.

There are a lot of good things in this caravan, all of which are good things from the Central Plains, silk, porcelain, jewelry, rouge, etc. ”

At this moment, I saw a thin man walking over with several guards with weapons on their waists and things in their hands.
