Twenty or thirty men came out of the woods, all ragged and like savages, but each with a weapon in his hand.

"Brother, slow down, we are also Tang Army!!" Someone on the other side shouted.

Xue Shao stood still with the horizontal knife, "Which part?" ”

"Shuozhou guards, under the command of Cao Huaishun, the head of the Shuofang Road march!" The other party said loudly, "What part are you from?" ”

Xue Shao breathed a sigh of relief, listening to the accent, looking at the armor and weapons, it was indeed Tang Jun.

"We are under the command of Pei Xingjian, the king of the Northern Expedition and the general manager of the Shan Yu Dao Marching Army!" Xue Shao said loudly.

"Master Wang is here? Marshal Pei is here?! The other sergeant let out a thunderous cheer, "Master Wang is here!" The royal master of the imperial court is here! ”

Xue Shao strode forward, "How many of you are there?" ”

"There were about two hundred, mostly wounded, scattered in the jungle." A man who looked like a colonel on the other side replied, "I vaguely heard the sound of a horn in the distance in the north, and I came to investigate on purpose—what is going on?" ”

"More than two hundred brothers? Wow! Niu Ben came to his strength when he heard this, and said loudly, "Hurry up and kill back with me......"

Xue Shao kicked him in the ass and gave him a kick, kill your uncle, these people are about to stand unsteadily, aren't they clearly going to die against the Turkic cavalry, wouldn't Sandao and the others be sacrificed in vain? Besides, it's hard to say whether these people are friends or foes!

"Why are you kicking me again!"

"Brother, what's going on?" Those guards gathered around and looked at Xue Shao together.

Xue Shao said: "After the fall of Shuozhou, Daizhou also fell. We are the scouts of the main army, and we have unfortunately encountered most of the Turks. In order to rescue these fleeing people, my brothers put up a desperate resistance at the front, buying time for us to cover the evacuation of the people. ”

"Daiju has also fallen?!" The sergeants were taken aback.

Xue Shao nodded, "Now, you should join me in escorting the people to retreat south and go to the camp of the king of Bingzhou." ”

The sergeants fell silent for a moment, and several of them had suspicious expressions on their faces. There were also people who stared at the people with bad intentions, staring at their burdens, and the hunger on their faces was undisguised.

"Why don't you keep quiet?" Niu Ben was annoyed and shouted, "Could it be that you are a deserter, and you don't want to be guilty of meritorious service?" What a bastard! ”

"Shut up!" Xue Shao shouted, crying bitterly in his heart, Niu Ben is a fool, there is only a paper separation between "soldiers and bandits" during the war, these defeated soldiers can be our life and death comrades, or they may be mountain bandits who kill people and goods. If you really want to condemn them as "deserters", they will definitely break the jars and ropes to kill us, take food and goods, hide them and run to the grass to fall into the grass!

"We are not deserters!" The men were suddenly hostile, and they took a step back with a wary and neat look.

"I know the way!" Xue Shao hurriedly said loudly, "I already know the situation of the first battle in Shuozhou. Cao Huaishun was too eager to make meritorious service to atone for his crimes, and he was greedy for merit and attacked Heisha in a hurry, but he fell into the siege of Ashdwin Fu, and fled back to Shuozhou in a crushing defeat. Ashdwin Fu did not keep the covenant and covered up all the way to seize Shuozhou, resulting in the fall of the city and the destruction of the army. This crime is all Cao Huaishun alone, and he has nothing to do with his brothers! When I go back to see the coach, I will explain the reasons for the brothers, clear up and clarify the brothers, and give you justice! ”

As soon as Xue Shao said this, all the sergeants breathed a sigh of relief and restrained some of their hostility.

"I heard that your words are good and insightful, dare to ask what the official position is?" Someone asked.

"Yes, what is your official position? Who are you qualified to meet the manager to intercede for us? ”

"Uh......" Niu Ben was dumbfounded, we are just ordinary pawns, and there are only two people, how can we control this group of people?

Xue Shao frowned, on the verge of life and death at the time of mourning, people are very suspicious and angry, and the constraints of ordinary laws and morals will be left behind. Right now, if I impersonate anyone or any position, I have the possibility of being a goof. As soon as I goof, these people will think that I am cheating them, trying to frame them - these people can become robbers who kill people and oversell goods in an instant, and the situation will inevitably be out of control!

Thinking of this, Xue Shao took off his helmet and said: "I can't hide it, I am Zuo Fengchen Qianniu's body, Marshal Pei's descendant student, and Xue Shao, the commander of the horse!" ”

"Huh?" The crowd was taken aback.

Niu Ben stared at a pair of copper bell-like eyes, and exclaimed in his heart - you really dare to brag!

"Since you don't know you when you say it, why ask?" Xue Shao smiled indifferently, "Brothers, believe me." As long as you are still loyal guards of the Tang Dynasty, I will try my best to ensure that you will not be questioned. As long as you help me to protect these people when they arrive in Bingzhou, I will also play Marshal Pei and make a credit for you! ”

The sergeants did not answer with suspicious expressions on their faces, and they began to discuss with each other.

A cold sweat flowed from Niu Ben's forehead, and his neck was cold. He wasn't really stupid, and now he was aware of the danger - if he couldn't convince the rebels, they might kill people and steal the food and property of the people, and then flee!

Defeated soldiers and deserters returning to the barracks were subject to military law, and were punished by confiscation as slavery or exiled and beheaded.

Therefore, when the war is in chaos, you can see many defeated soldiers who are broken and broken, they have already sentenced themselves to death in their hearts, and now one more day of life is to earn one day, so they completely annihilate humanity and become unscrupulous!

Such people gathered together, far more vicious and cruel than ordinary mountain bandits and robbers!

The sergeants whispered and deliberated, and some went into the woods to call for help. A few moments later, a dozen more people came.

"Who said that no one knows Xue Shao!" Out of the crowd came a man who looked like their leader, tall and unarmoured, but wearing a bright armor sash.

Xue Shao looked at this person, he hadn't seen it. He can afford to wear bright light armor, and he is either a high-ranking officer or a member of the royal family. He wore this hood, presumably to assert his leadership among the crowd.

"Where's your armor?" Xue Shao took the lead and questioned loudly.

The man was slightly stunned, and replied forcefully, "Don't worry about it!" ”

"Okay, I'll leave it at that." Xue Shao nodded, "You said you knew Xue Shao, so who are you?" ”

"I'm the commander of the Yulin Army, Du Zheng!" The man looked Xue Shao up and down, squinted his eyes, and shook his head, "It's not like that!" ”

All the sergeants shouted in surprise and raised their vigilance. Someone else secretly drew a knife.

Niu Ben jumped in front of Xue Shao and raised his Da Mo knife high, "Don't come over!" ”

"Of course not." Xue Shao was very calm, walked out of the huge body of Niu Ben, stood only one step away from Du Zheng, and said, "Because, I'm just-yes!" ”

"Okay, then I'll ask you." Du Zheng looked at Xue Shao coldly, "Who is General Zuo Fengchenwei?" ”

"The former inspection general Li Xiaoyi, he is my matchmaker with Princess Taiping." Xue Shao said calmly, "Not long ago, Zhou Jitong defeated Li Xiantong in the Thousand Cow Martial Arts Lecture, and Zhou Jitong took over the position of general. In addition, Cheng Boxian and Liu Mian, among the four imperial swords, took over as Zhonglang generals - you ask me these things, can you know the Tao yourself? ”

When the sergeants heard Xue Shao's words, they believed most of them, and muttered, "It's really Pei Gong's protégé, it's really a thousand cows, and it's really a court's horse!" ”

Niu Ben was dumbfounded, my obedient, white-faced person can really deceive people, it looks like the truth!

"Nonsense! Brothers, don't listen to his nonsense! Du Zheng shouted, "These things, as long as people who have stayed in Chang'an know about them!" ”

"Ridiculous!" Xue Shao sneered, "You said you were the commander of the Yulin Army, whose command are you?" And what proof do you have? ”

"I am the commander of the First Brigade of the Second Mansion Infantry Crossbow Regiment of the Right Yulin Weiyi, and I have a military status here!" Du Zheng took out his military registration and shook it in front of Xue Shao, "What about your military registration?" Take it out and show it to everyone, and naturally believe you! ”

"Yes, show us the military status!"

Xue Shao's scalp tightened, fucking this Du Zheng is so difficult! - Lao Tzu's military status is a pawn, and his name is still Chengyu!

"We are scout rangers, how can we carry military membership with us on such a top-secret mission, and if we fall into the hands of the Turks, won't we be exposed?" Xue Shao said very calmly: "Since you are a subordinate of Zhang Qianxuan, the general of the Right Feather Lin Wei, how could you follow Cao Huaishun to Shuozhou?" ”

Xue Shao immediately diverted the topic, Niu Ben felt that his underwear was all sweaty, so dangerous, I really didn't expect that in the face of his own people, there would be such a danger!

Du Zheng still looked at Xue Shao with great vigilance and hostility, and said: "The Turks rebelled, and General Zhang led the right Yu Lin Wei to ask for permission to fight the rebellion. Our Yi Erfu 800-step crossbow was assigned to Cao Huaishun as a personal guard, and he was the first to set off with him to guard Shuozhou. Now, presumably General Zhang Qianqiao must have led most of the right Yu Lin Wei and Marshal Pei's main army to walk together - why, you keep saying that you are Marshal Pei's student, but you don't even know about this? ”

"I don't know what to say. First, I did not participate in the imperial court's military aircraft, and second, I set off first with Li Duozuo, the former head of the army's march and the right guard Zhonglang, to transport grain and grass. Xue Shao said, "I heard that Shuozhou had fallen, and I personally led the scouts to reconnoiter - now, the 30,000 horses of Li Duozuo's front army have arrived in Bingzhou, and Marshal Pei led 300,000 troops to quell the rebellion, and most of the follow-up main forces are about to arrive." Brothers, don't doubt it, and hurry up with me to protect these people and return to the state. I vouch for the innocence of all of you, and credit for one! ”

The guards were visibly moved.

After all, they are all Tang people, and they are all dragging their mouths in the rear, and some people are leaning on the door to look forward to each other. If you don't want to be classified as a deserter, you can go home and reunite with your family, and you can still get a credit?

Du Zheng stared at Xue Shao and snorted, "Unless you can really prove that you are Xue Shao, otherwise, we won't go with you!" ——Say, who and where did Xue Shao compete that day, and what were the details of the process? ”

"Yes, give me a proof!"

"That's it, I'll your grandma!!" Niu Ben was annoyed, and he jumped out and was about to cut people with a big Mo knife.

Xue Shao jumped up with a loud shout, and used a bus jiu-jitsu lock skill to entangle Niu Ben to death. Niu Ben fell to the ground and screamed loudly, "Oops, it hurts, it hurts—the white-faced spare!" ”

"Now you see it?" Xue Shao said loudly, "That day, I used this trick to defeat Zhou Jitong at the Thousand Cow Martial Arts Conference in the Beiya School and snatched his Thousand Cow Imperial Sword!" ”

"It's really General Xue!" Du Zheng believed Xue Shao at this time, and hurriedly put the knife into the sheath and bowed on one knee, "General Xue, the last general is offended!" ”

"How offended!" All the guards bowed down together.

Xue Shao's tense nerves relaxed slightly, and he gasped for breath.

"White ...... ...... of the face I'm going to break my arm, hurry up and let me go! ”。

[Let's vote a little more red votes, there are fewer and fewer, and the data is ugly......]
