Chapter 1014: Rush Out
Nothing happened that night.
When the convoy began to start again in the early morning, Lei Wei breathed a long sigh of relief, yesterday, he didn't sleep much, that is, when the sky showed a glimmer of dawn, he took a nap, which made his eyes full of bloodshots.
It should be that he is suspicious, some of the recurring horses, or just a slightly larger bandit, Qingzhou is rich in wasteland horses, and the bandits here can be regarded as cavalry. But it is unlikely that these bandits will want to eat their own guards, they are seriously lacking in weapons and combat skills, and although there are only fifty guards under their command, each of them is fully armed and extremely experienced in combat.
The convoy moved on, but the bandit spies never showed up again. This made Lei Wei finally settle down, he was really tired last night, he simply jumped off the horse, climbed on top of the grain cart, laid himself flat, and was ready to sleep well.
He was awakened by the thunderous sound of horses' hooves. As a veteran, he could clearly distinguish what thunder was and what the sound of many horses' hooves hitting the ground was.
He scrambled to his feet, and a black line appeared in front of him, and Lei Wei's face immediately changed.
"Formation, formation. Circle the grain carts. Just by glancing at it, Lei Wei found that there were at least 2,000 cavalry on the opposite side.
The convoy immediately panicked. Everyone hurriedly surrounded the grain trucks, and dozens of guards gathered around Lei Wei, everyone's face turned pale. They are elite, and they are not afraid of death, but this battle seems to be unfought! There were only fifty of them, and with the guys who drove the car, less than a hundred.
The owner of the escort car was already panicking.
"Lei Wei, what should I do, what should I do?" He asked repeatedly.
Lei Wei stared at the cavalry who had already rushed, and his face stretched slightly: "They are not bandits, they should be the Qin army in Qingzhou." ”
Hearing this, the owner relaxed. "It's good to be an official army, it's good to be an official army."
The Qin army in Qingzhou, now most of the supplies rely on being transported from Kaiping County, they do not rob the Ming merchants, I heard that it is the official army, the owner is naturally relieved.
"When I went to negotiate, most of the time I wanted to give them some blood and give them a little silver."
The oncoming cavalry quickly surrounded the convoy, and they did not raise their flags. But there is still a big difference with bandits. As a veteran, Lei Wei could see this at a glance.
"Boss Lei, no, I saw a familiar guy who has been near us for the past two days, and I expelled him." One of the guards' voices trembled.
Lei Wei tightly grasped the ring-headed knife at his waist.
"Damn, this may be the army that Qingzhou Lu must have recruited for a short time. Everyone remembered that if they had bad intentions, as soon as they started fighting, they would immediately flee and flee to Kaiping. ”
"Regardless of the owner?"
"It's not that it doesn't matter, it's that it can't be managed. We don't have this ability, how many can we fight at a time? As long as one person escapes back to Kaiping County and brings Xin'er back, the general can take revenge on us. Lei Wei said.
"They're not going to rob it, are they?"
The corners of Lei Wei's eyes twitched: "What if you really rob it?" It's a hundred miles away from Kaiping County here, kill us all, don't leave any of us, even if there is something in the future, just push it to the bandits. Everyone listen to me, don't fight, don't have any other ideas, as soon as you move, run, run back, as long as you run back, someone will avenge us. I left an opening in the grain cart behind me and where to run from. ”
The fifty veterans were breathing rapidly, and as they watched their hosts, they walked out of the position surrounded by grain carts, and walked towards each other with their hands held high.
A cavalryman stepped out of the crowd and walked towards the host.
Lei Wei stared at him deadly.
The opponent's war horse suddenly accelerated, his hand on the saber at his waist, and when the knife choked out of its sheath, Lei Wei shouted, "Hurry up." ”
Without the slightest hesitation, dozens of veterans turned around and turned their horses, slammed their whips into the horse's stocks, and rushed out towards the rear along the specially set aside.
At the same time, a good head of the owner of the grain team has been cut off with a knife and flies high in the air.
Lei Wei turned his head to look at the blood that splattered out like a fountain, and howled out in pain.
"Cone!" He yelled. He raised the ring-head knife in his hand high and rushed to the front of the group, and the fifty guards behind him immediately formed a cone-shaped shock lineup behind him.
"Kill!" Lei Wei's decision was quite correct, their sudden acceleration of the impact greatly surprised the cavalry surrounding them, and when the speed of Lei Wei's impact reached its peak, they began to accelerate in a panic.
Lei Wei even saw the fear on the face of one of the Qin soldiers at the front.
The ring-headed knife slashed down, easily breaking through the opponent's leather armor, dragging a long bloody hole in the opponent's chest and abdomen, and the internal organs immediately hissed out of the wound.
With a knife slashed out, he didn't look at the results of the battle at all, Lei Wei slammed his feet into the belly of the horse and plunged into the cavalry of the Qin army.
They only have this chance to impact, and once they bring Qin Jun back to their senses, it will be their death.
Lei Wei knew very well that none of the fifty of them were from cavalry, they were all infantry, they could just ride horses, and compared with these Qingzhou Qin troops, their equestrian skills were too far behind.
The sharp ring head knife and the armor with super protective performance made this team of fifty people kill through the Qin army's array in one fell swoop under the sudden impact. When Lei Wei rushed out covered in blood, he only felt pain all over his body. He knew he was injured, but his body was covered with blood, and for a moment, he couldn't tell where he was injured. When he looked back, there were probably about thirty brothers left who rushed out with him.
After all, they were not cavalrymen, and they lacked the skills to fight on horseback, but they only had a surprise advantage, and several of them even rode on horses and swung their swords, using too much force to make them lose their balance and fall off their horses.
"Threesome, split up!" Lei Wei roared loudly while beating his horse and galloping.
It has become a habit for the Ming army to obey military orders, and after Lei Wei gave the order, the guards who rushed out immediately formed a group of three people nearby, dispersed, and ran wildly all the way in the direction of Kaiping County, and behind them, the cavalry of black pressure chased fiercely.
As for the coachmen and men who were left behind, none of them were still alive at this time.
Kaiping border, Huo Zheng and his cavalry patrol once again ended up with Huo Wei at the place where they broke up, here, is their end, they have come here, and then they are going back.
"Captain, do you think Huo Laohui will really have to get a daughter-in-law from Qingzhou?" One of the soldiers asked curiously.
"How not?" Huo Zheng said: "Do you know how much it costs to buy a yard in Kaiping County?" I'm afraid that all the money and bounties he has saved over the years will be smashed into it. In Qingzhou, he took fifty taels of silver out, and he could choose a satisfactory daughter-in-law at will. There are a lot of women there now. ”
"I wonder what kind of woman he's looking for?" The other soldier laughed.
"I think so!" Huo Zheng really thought seriously for a while: "He will definitely find a tall Qin daughter-in-law, everyone forgot, that kid is because he is short and sturdy, when he was in the army, he was not less ridiculed, he definitely wanted to find a tall woman, so that his future son can grow taller." ”
A group of GIs burst into laughter.
"Okay, okay, when you retire, you can also go to Qin to find a daughter-in-law!" Huo Zheng waved his hand and said.
"Captain Huo, don't lie to us, when we retire, I'm afraid that the people of Qin will become Ming people, and once they become Ming women, they will definitely be expensive, I haven't seen the barbarian women who moved to our Kaiping County, and now they are also expensive, it is estimated that when I retire and marry my daughter-in-law, I will have to go to Qi or Chu to find it." A young soldier pouted.
The crowd laughed again.
Huo Zheng leaned back with a smile, "I can't say for sure, let me tell you, General Yu Chao's wind-chasing battalion has arrived in Kaiping County a few days ago, and I heard that it will be stationed in our area in the next two days to take over our defense area." The Wind Chasing Battalion is the first cavalry of our Ming Dynasty, and wherever they go, most of them are about to fight, and it seems that our Ming Dynasty is preparing to make a move against the Qin State. ”
"That means there's going to be a war, haha, there's a lot of bounty to take a lot!"
"You rookie egg, think about how to survive first, don't underestimate the people of Qin, they are still very fierce in war. In the last battle of Hengdian, we also won miserably. ”
"Hehe, Captain, didn't they still have the Deng brothers at that time, what are they now? I don't think it's much better than a bandit! The recruit didn't think so.
"Yo ho, I can't see it, you're quite shrewd!" Huo Zheng looked at this recruit differently. "But it's not bad, the current Qin army is indeed much worse than the previous one, maybe the Qin soldiers in other places still have the strength to fight, but the ...... in Qingzhou"
Huo Zheng shook his head: "Last time, they had already been broken by us, and now Lu must only think about recruiting more troops, but this combat power has already dropped too much, and if you really want to do something to them, I am afraid that it will be really vulnerable." The Wind Chasing Battalion, that's the number one cavalry. ”
As a cavalryman, he couldn't join the Wind Chasing Battalion, Huo Zheng was really sorry in his heart, what he longed for most was the sight of ten thousand horses running away from the charge, but he could only be a scout in the Jumu Battalion, a field battalion where foot soldiers were king, and he could only be a scout, make a strategy, and patrol the border.
"Let's go!" Huo Zheng turned over and got on his horse, "It's almost time to rest, when the wind chasing camp comes, we will hand over the defense area, and then leave this Luo, I have been here for several years, and I am really a little reluctant." ”
The cavalry turned on their horses. Just as he was about to leave, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded in his ears.
Huo Zheng Huo Ran turned around. The extremely sharp whistle was used by the Ming army for warning, and when it was mounted on a crossbow, when it was launched into the air, it would make a particularly sharp sound in the air because of its special design.
At the end of the field of vision, a horse was running towards him, and behind him, dozens of horsemen were chasing after him.
"Lei Wei!" He exclaimed.
