Chapter 172: It's not as good as a bandit

After the butter is condensed and compacted, it is quite a hard thing, so those who really know how to do it use a knife to roast it on the fire. Then cut it, the butter is as easy to decompose as tender tofu, and this is what the Tieding horse team led by Jiang Feng looked like when they rushed into the team of frightened bandits at the bottom of the mountain.

The fiery guns, which sprayed hot iron sand, radiated three times in the line of the horse team, and each time a group of people fell, whether it was in front or behind, they retreated in horror, but the crowd was never as fast as the horse team rushing on.

The weapons in the hands of the iron dings are all heavy long soldiers, and when they charge, they wave out, and the bandits in cloth clothes around them have no way to defend at all, and the iron dings even have leather armor protection for the horses under their crotches. This kind of extremely unbalanced battle in strength and equipment made the morale and determination that had been finally gathered begin to collapse again.

The fog gradually dissipated, and each other's vision became clear, and the bandits who were killed and fled in all directions had already noticed the appearance of dozens of neatly dressed cavalrymen rushing down. But even if he has dozens of times the advantage here, he can't get close at all, or rather, everyone is running desperately, and in the face of these cavalry companions, the weapons are not swinged.

He was immediately hacked to death by the long knife and big axe on the opposite side, and the few people behind him were the people sent by the alliance leader of the green forest to maintain the situation, they were still well-trained, and they were not chaotic by the maintenance of more than thirty cronies around them, and the leader shouted desperately:

"Don't panic, don't panic, they are much less than us, scatter ......"

Before he finished speaking, four or five long arrows were already nailed to his body and head, and the Yang family's Orion's horse was parked not far away, keeping a distance from the battlefield, and now that the fog had dispersed, those who were neatly dressed or riding horses became targets.

Originally, the bandits were all retreating towards the back, and when the man shouted there, he was still a little bold and gathered behind him, and when he was killed by an arrow, several knights together were frightened, and they turned their heads and ran away with a wild shout. At this moment, whether it is walking or riding, who still has the heart to fight with those evil gods, how about the number of people, dozens of people on the other side rushed back and forth, and hundreds of companions were already killed and injured.

"What a rabble."

Looking at the bandits who even threw away their weapons and only hated why their father and mother didn't give birth to a few more legs, Jiang Feng felt quite bored. He still didn't kill him, he was quite satisfied to hear that the iron men behind him were also panting unwillingly, it was not exhaustion, but the feeling of not being satisfied with eating blood.

In peacetime, he can actually lead such a group of killing gods, which can be regarded as a skill, Jiang Feng was vaguely proud in his heart, and when he was about to urge the horse to chase and kill, Yang Da in the back rushed over. looked at the front in some surprise, and said with some confusion in his mouth:

"Lord Jiang, something is wrong, there should be an army coming in front, is it here to save us?"

Now the ground of this piece of official road is full of corpses and broken flesh, pools of blood and wounded, but there is no one from the Thousand Households in Yantai Mountain, and the word 'rescue' is still used quite reluctantly. Jiang Feng looked ahead, although he still couldn't see clearly, but the screams of the fleeing bandits still came. Jiang Feng scolded viciously:

"If you save us, so many bastards walking on the official road, they have already been seen, why wait until now to save them, it must be not bad intentions, let's go back to the mountain!"

Just now the horse team that was still killing shouted and quickly returned to the mountain along the mountain road, all the people on the mountain were quickly mobilized, the mountain was being rebuilt, there was no shortage of stones and building materials, and the sealing of the mountain road had been sealed, but it was not completely completed.

Hundreds of old and weak officers and soldiers in the entire Thousand Households, as well as Tie Ding's family members, quickly plugged the materials on the gap, because Tie Ding's family members themselves were craftsmen. When they were on the mountain, they were also building weapons, and the armament was still quite sufficient, bundles of arrows were carried out, and two tiger squat cannons were also placed on the wall of the mountain, and the horses of the iron dings were naturally put into the stables for them.

They changed their heavy armor and went up to the wall with weapons and firearms, and they were waiting for someone to come up below.

The army that appeared in the distance was the army of the left guard of Dengzhou, a total of 3,000 people, led by two thousand households, the reason for the mobilization of soldiers and horses was that there were bandits in Yantai Mountain, and the matter was urgent, and rescue was the most important thing, and 3,000 soldiers were mobilized and hurried over in the direction of Yantai Mountain.

The two thousand households are all cronies of the commander, and they also know what they are doing on Yantai Mountain, not to mention that behind them are still dozens of so-called "officials who report to the Dengzhou Mansion and lead the way", these people are elite knights at a glance, and one surnamed Hong is the leader.

When I was about to reach the boundary of Yantai Mountain, there were suddenly many bandits in front of me, these people were dressed up, and some of them still held weapons in their hands, and they were not good people at first glance.

The two thousand households naturally did not hesitate to order their subordinates to kill, this kind of killing and beheading is counted in the battle merits, the soldiers of the guard are not the same as the scattered bandits in front of them, but they know the formation, know a cooperation, and the spear in front of them seems to be erected like a hedgehog.

Those bandits rushed to the front and were stabbed into meat skewers, and those who wanted to run were also killed by bows and arrows, and the rest of the people saw that there was no way, and some ran towards the sea, and some ran towards the hills on the other side.

But the two thousand households felt that something was wrong, when they came, they clearly said that the Yantai Mountain Thousand Households were already occupied by bandits, and they only needed to take the soldiers up to kill everyone, and then move back some things, but in front of them, these bandits who broke up and cried were the ones who 'occupied' the Thousand Households of Yantai Mountain?

I couldn't help but look back at the Lord Hong, who seemed to be a shrewd and capable Lord Hong, whose face was also confused, and said in a low voice:

"Just keep walking forward, maybe it's the uneven distribution of spoils, it's just infighting with each other, and that's how these goods are."

Qianhu knew in his heart that this reason was too far-fetched, but since it was the commander that Lord Hong ordered everything to be based on this Lord Hong, he didn't argue, and shouted loudly:

"The whole army must not be scattered, and continue to advance."

The second wave of rout troops soon met again, running in the front was a few who were sent to suppress the formation, seeing the army of the guard, he couldn't help but show joy, turned the horse's head and rushed over, the key to the problem is that Lord Hong knows them, and the officers and soldiers of the guard do not know.

The archers behind the pikemen in the first row had already opened their bows and arrows, and anyway, the order was to shoot and kill at the beginning, and before Lord Hong could make a sound to stop it, the knights who rushed over had already been shot into hedgehogs.

"Stop, stop"

The two thousand households also shouted, but it was obviously too late, and Lord Hong was also helpless, and walked to those people, one of them still did not lose his breath, Lord Hong hurriedly dismounted, gently helped him up, and came to the front and asked in a low voice:

"Gao Laosi, what's wrong, what's wrong?"

The one called Gao Lao Si was obviously in a dying state, and his lips were squirming there, struggling to say a word, and his voice was already inaudible, and Lord Hong leaned his ear over and vaguely heard:

"Unlucky, really ......"

Then his neck was crooked, his breath was cut off, Lord Hong didn't expect his companion to say this sentence at all, he was stunned for a long time, and the Qianhu behind him hesitated and asked:

"Lord Hong, should we continue to move forward?"

The Lord Hong looked at his companion who had been shot into a hedgehog on the ground, and there he gritted his teeth viciously and said:

"Since I'm here, there's no reason to go back empty-handed, so keep walking."

After being hit by these two groups of bandits a few times, the formation of the soldiers in the guard station is also a little chaotic, the guard in Shandong is mainly to suppress bandits, so it is not the kind of Taiping soldiers in Jiangnan who have not even seen blood, but these soldiers also know that these bandits in front of them, if they are killed and scattered, the other party must at least have several times the strength of the troops, doesn't it mean that they go up the mountain to suppress bandits, if there are thousands of households in Yantai Mountain, then there is no need to help. If there is infighting among the bandits, the victorious bandits are too terrifying.

Such an idea slowly spread in the army, and gradually there was some commotion in the ranks, and the two thousand households looked at each other, knowing that it might not be a way to go on like this, but the way Lord Hong gritted his teeth, and the order of the commander could not be disobeyed.

It can only be the hundreds of households, the general flag, and the small flag under the platoon, desperately maintaining order below, so that the team can continue to move forward. Until the place where the stone pile exploded, the stumps and severed arms on the road were already soaked in blood, and the corpses on both sides and the wounded who were wailing, but the voices gradually became quieter.

These thousands of soldiers are no longer willing to move forward, and the soldiers in the front row are logically the bravest people, but even like this, there are still people who can't help but vomit, and the scene in front of them is completely hell on earth. One of the two thousand households had fought the Tartars outside the fortress back then, and there was no such horror on that battlefield.
