The one-eyed dragon was very happy when he was slapped by the little brother's sycophant, and he laughed, but at this time, a white-faced man on the right who looked dry and thin said with a worried face:

"Boss, we've done a lot of tickets lately. And King Guo Yan's group is not small. What's more, there are many large and small cottages that are also active.

I wonder if there will be movement in this court sooner or later, and maybe we will have already sent people to suppress us. We have to guard against it. ”

The one-eyed dragon didn't speak, just glanced at the white-faced man with a slight displeasure.

Instead, the meaty-faced guy scolded at the thin white-faced man: "I said horse monkey, what the hell are you worried about? The court of bullshit. Just that little white face, how many soldiers and horses can he have to kill us? He is now using troops everywhere, there is our Dashun Army in the west, and Zhang Xianzhong's Daxi Army in Shuzhou. There are also people from the Zheng family in the southeast. Which of these is a fuel-efficient lamp?

And in this troubled world, the world is full of bandits, can he kill him? If you look around here, there are deep mountains and dense forests everywhere, where can he reach his little people and horses, let's drill into this dense forest, they are just tired to death, and they don't want to find us.

Besides, our boss is wise and martial, if those dog officers and soldiers really dare to come, the boss will let them come and go, and it is not certain who will kill who at that time. ”

The thin white-faced man still shook his head and said: "Big dog, but the firearms of the official army are really very sharp, and we suffered a big loss of their firearms that day, so we fell to the point where we are today." Now I have heard that our Dashun army is retreating one after another, and the entire Jinzhou, Jiangnan, and even Yuzhou have fallen into the hands of officers and soldiers. King Chuang's side is definitely not having a good time now.

If they do come to kill us, our men and horses will not be able to deal with those muskets. Boss, I don't think it's better for us to stop during this time and avoid the limelight for the time being. ”

Before the white-faced man finished speaking, he was interrupted by the meaty guy called Big Dog,

"I said horse monkey, you are really frightened by the officers and soldiers. Although we suffered defeat back then. But now that we have taken the initiative, and in this deep mountain and dense forest, he is how sharp the firearms can treat us. When the time comes, they will be the dishes on our plate. If you kid dare to shake the morale of the army and talk nonsense, Lao Tzu will be the first to kill you. ”

As he spoke, he asked this guy to stretch out his hand and was about to draw his knife, making a gesture to cut this thin white-faced man, but he was stopped by the one-eyed dragon boss, "Big dog, take the knife back." What the yellow monkey said also has some truth. The firearms of these officers and soldiers are indeed too evil. Lao Tzu suffered this loss back then, so he wasted one eye.

But what the big dog said also makes sense, we are in this deep mountain and old forest, they come and we drill into the forest, and they can't do anything about us.

In this way, one more vote will be temporarily withdrawn to avoid the limelight. This day is slowly getting cooler, let's get some more food and drink for the winter.

There is a Chenjiazhuang in the south, you know, right? That old man Chen in Chenjiazhuang, that old thing is really shameless. Last time, I asked him to borrow a thousand stone of grain and said no, and finally gave Lao Tzu twenty stones.

Three days later, we took someone to copy Chenjiazhuang and snatched all the old thing's property. And I heard that the old thing only has a girl who is like a flower and jade, and Lao Tzu just doesn't have a lady in the village. When the time comes, Chen Laocai will be cheap to Lao Tzu as this cheap old man. ”

Hearing the boss say this, the big dog said excitedly: "Boss, next time you attack Chenjiazhuang, let my brother and I take the lead, ensure that I will be the first to kill in, and send the little lady Chen obediently to the boss." ”

The big dog's words caused the one-eyed dragon to laugh again, and although the white-faced man next to him was also smiling, there was still a worried look in his eyes.

But the one-eyed dragon is a person he knows, and he has always been stubborn and self-serving. What he said, if others objected again, it was very likely to lead to death, so he had to endure it.

The one-eyed dragon led a group of bandits to take these two dozen robbed women and was slowly walking towards the lair.

The reconnaissance of several new armies that followed the trail all the way had also arrived not far behind them.

The veteran squad leader squatted down and checked the traces on the ground, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Judging from the traces, there are a few horseback riding in this gang of bandits, but there are not many of them. Most of them were on foot, and the total number of them should be around two hundred. ”

After finishing speaking, the veteran squad leader ordered a scout next to him to make a mark on a tree, and then led people to continue to chase after him.

The traces left by the bandits were too obvious to be easily recognized, so several people quickly approached behind the bandits.

After looking for a high ground with open vision, the veteran squad leader observed with a telescope for a while, nodded and said in a low voice: "The number of people is about the same as previously estimated, and there is indeed a group of abducted women in their crowd." Let's not act rashly, follow them, and find a way to grab a tongue and ask first. ”

When the veteran squad leader led people to follow the bandits and planned to scratch their tongues, the scout Dapeng, who went back to report the news, also reported the situation to Duan Peng, the captain of the reconnaissance brigade.

The reconnaissance brigade belonged to the units directly under the military headquarters of the New First Army, and its rank was comparable to that of other ordinary infantry regiments. The captain of the brigade, Duan Peng, also has the rank of major.

After listening to the information sent back by the scouts, Major Duan Peng immediately sent a squadron to be supported by Dapeng along with the marks left by the veteran squad leaders.

Although bandits are rampant here, their combat effectiveness is generally rubbish.

And their equipment is basically cold weapons such as broadswords and spears, and there are even a lot of iron farm tools.

In order to accomplish the task of suppressing bandits with the greatest efficiency, the New First Army must break up the entire unit into parts and disperse the crackdown on bandits with squadrons or battalions and companies as the basic combat units.

And the reconnaissance brigade is also a separate combat unit this time.

For such a fighting bandit, the scouts of each regiment are sufficient for reconnaissance tasks of this level.

The reconnaissance brigade can be said to be the elite unit of the new First Army, and it is second to none in the New First Army in terms of training intensity, combat effectiveness, and equipment.

Not to mention anything else, the entire reconnaissance brigade has three squadrons with a total of 600 people. From top to bottom, each soldier was armed with a carbine, two base cartridges.

It is also equipped with a newly developed revolver. In addition, it is equipped with a short knife suitable for melee combat and a multi-purpose sapper shovel, which can be said to be armed to the teeth.

This kind of elite troops to exterminate a bandit does have the feeling of using a cannon to fight mosquitoes and kill chickens with a knife.

The only disadvantage is that the recruits of the New First Army have not yet seen blood. No matter how well equipped the troops that have never seen blood, they are not an elite army in the true sense of the word.

This anti-bandit operation was not so much a test for Jiang Chuan's new army as a pre-war baptism for these recruits.
