Chapter 23: For My Use
The old man of the caravan was anxious at this time, he knew very well that if the weapons they hid in the goods were found out, he knew how these Tang troops would treat them, but he was sure that their purpose of going to Shule Town to establish a small stronghold again would be in vain.
But seeing that these Tang troops are heavily guarded one by one, everyone has bows and arrows in their hands, and the arrows have been wound, if they make a slight move at this time, I am afraid that they will be wiped out!
The old man didn't expect that the general of the Tang Army he met this time would be such a person, not only took the money, but he refused to be accommodating at all, which he had never encountered before. But at this time, even if he has the heart to resist, he must not act rashly, his brain turned quickly, and he made up his mind in his heart, even if the weapon hidden in the cargo was discovered, he would not admit that he was going to establish a detailed stronghold, as long as he did not admit it and did not resist, the other party should not be a killer on the spot.
He secretly glanced at the other people in the caravan, telling them not to act rashly, it would not work if they were not allowed to inspect at this time, but they didn't know why the Tang army suddenly wanted to inspect the caravan goods, could it be that he was showing his feet?
Several cavalrymen dismounted at the signal of Zhao Ziliang and walked to the side of the carriage convoy and began to inspect the goods, and bundles of sheepskins, animal skins, and bags of various Persian goods were thrown on the ground and untied one by one.
Under the strict inspection of the soldiers, all the weapons and bows and arrows hidden in the goods and on the back of the wooden planks of the carriage were found and piled together, and those who were squatting on the ground with their heads in their hands turned out to be turned pale with fright.
"What do you say now, old man? You are a businessman, why do you hide so many weapons and bows and arrows in the cargo and under the wagons? I think you're plotting against you! Come on, arrest this old man for me, if the others dare to act rashly, they will be killed! ”
"Yes!" The soldiers agreed with a bang.
The two soldiers who had just checked the goods came forward to catch the old man, the old man's face changed when he saw this, and a cold light flashed in his eyes, he quickly calculated the distance between himself and Zhao Ziliang, there were two meters less than three meters away, this distance he was confident that Zhao Ziliang would be controlled if Zhao Ziliang was unguarded.
Just when the two soldiers approached, the old man finally moved, his figure flashed, and his body quickly ran towards Zhao Ziliang, and when he was more than a meter away, he jumped up from the ground and was about to fly up and land on Zhao Ziliang's back.
Who knew that although Zhao Ziliang had been paying attention to most of the other people in the caravan, his main attention was still on this old man, and when the old man's body was activated, Zhao Ziliang was also startled, he didn't expect this thin old man to be so agile.
When the old man rose into the air, Zhao Ziliang reacted, the horse lance in his hand quickly attacked, as fast as lightning, seeing that Zhao Ziliang reacted so quickly, the lance of the horse lance stabbed head-on, the old man was scared into a cold sweat, and secretly complained in his heart, but he didn't expect Zhao Ziliang to stretch out his hand so well, at this time he was in the air, unable to borrow strength, so he could only give up and continue to move forward, his body rolled, and he broke away from the attack route of the horse lance in Zhao Ziliang's hand.
Zhao Ziliang couldn't borrow the old man's strength to move sideways in the air, how could he not be surprised, this old man was so skilled! But he was not slow, and when the old man's body was rolling in the air, he immediately swept through the horse lance in his hand.
At this time, the old man could no longer dodge, he saw that the horse lance in Zhao Ziliang's hand swept over, and he was swept in two by the sharp horse lance, but at this time, gravity saved his life, and Zhao Ziliang's horse lance just swept over, and the old man's body fell freely.
Zhao Ziliang was not surprised, he saw that he had been dodged by the old man twice in a row, so he immediately raised his horse lance again and stabbed at the falling old man's body. The old man's body had just hit the ground and fell to pieces, and before he could react, Zhao Ziliang's horse lance arrived, penetrated his body, and nailed him to the ground.
Zhao Ziliang used his hands to lift the old man from the ground and hang him in the air with a horse lance, and shouted: "Hmph, you are not small, you actually sneak attack, you deserve to die!" With a flick of his wrist, the old man was thrown to the ground, and after a few shakes, he swallowed.
The death of the old man hit the other people in the Shang capital even more, and although these people were in some commotion at this time, no one dared to openly confront them.
Zhao Ziliang waved his hand: "Come on, tie up all these people and bring them back to the camp!" ”
As soon as Zhao Ziliang's voice fell, I don't know who in the caravan suddenly shouted in Turkic: "Run!" ”
The shout made the others feel as if they had heard some kind of signal, and everyone in the caravan suddenly got up and ran in all directions, trying to break through the encirclement.
Zhao Ziliang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he burst out: "Kill!" ”
"Whoosh・・・・・・" arrows were fired.
Then there was a scream: "Ahhh・・・・・・hh
After a round of arrows was fired, the knights opened their bows and arrows again, and another group of people fell to the ground, Zhao Ziliang saw the corpse of the Tuqi Shi people who fell to the ground flew up a green light and was sucked into the wrench space, when there were only a dozen people left, he shouted: "Chase!" ”
When the horse is chased after him, he catches up with a horse lance and stabs the opponent to the ground, and then chases the person who escapes, and for each one killed, a green light is absorbed by the wrench on the thumb of the right hand.
In less than two minutes, the battle was over, and a caravan of forty-two people had been killed, thirty-eight of them, and four of them wisely chose to surrender on their knees after seeing that they could not escape.
When Zhao Ziliang turned around and walked back, Wang Can rode over and reported: "Brother Liang, four people have surrendered on their knees, do you want to kill them too?" ”
Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and said: "Don't be busy, take it back for strict interrogation first, pry out all the things they know, kill or let it go, wait for me to make a decision, tell the soldiers, clean up the battlefield, take away all the valuable things on the corpse, find a place to dig a pit, bury all the corpses, and bring back all the carriages, goods, and horses!" ”
"Yes, Brother Liang!"
In the evening, Li Cheng led the fifth Shi back from the west patrol of Qingshui Lake, they did not encounter any situation today, but they brought back a few prey, including three antelopes and a bison, the soldiers saw that they brought back so much prey, one by one ran out of the camp to greet, it seems that they can have more food tonight.
Zhao Ziliang just came back from the training ground sweating profusely, he only slept six hours a day, and spent more than ten hours practicing martial arts, riding archery, and cavalry fighting, and had to deal with the affairs of the team at other times.
"Brother Liang, look at it, these little rabbits are more interested in seeing meat than seeing little girls!" Third, Shi Shi Chang Chu Ge couldn't help but shake his head and said.
Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "This is also no way, our conditions are limited, it is good to ensure three meals a day, if you want to get meat, in this regard, you can only hunt by yourself in the place where there is no village in front of the village and no store in the future, and the patrol team can bring some prey back every time, which is also good, you can improve the food for the brothers!" ”
Li Chengce ran over and saluted: "Brother Liang, we are back, everything is normal in our patrol area today, no abnormalities were found, and when we were patrolling, we encountered a group of antelopes and a group of bison, so we hunted a few and came back!" ”
Zhao Ziliang nodded, "It's a good job, but when patrolling in the future, you still have to put all your mind on patrolling, don't patrol for hunting, if conditions permit, by the way, it's not bad to hunt a few wild meat and give the brothers a tooth sacrifice, you can distinguish the priorities!" ”
Li Cheng promised: "Yes, Brother Liang, I understand!" ”
At this time, Wang Can walked over quickly and said: "Brother Liang, those four people have confessed, they are indeed Tuqi Shi people, and Du Modu is preparing to send them to Shule Town to establish a new stronghold, and he also told a lot about the situation in Broken Leaf Town, I have written them down!" ”
"This Du Modu even wants to send someone to Shule Town to establish a small stronghold, it seems that this old boy's plan is not small!" Zhao Ziliang paused for a moment when he said this, and then said: "Very good, you let them all sign and draw, and then give them some means, let them use it for me!" ”
Wang Can was puzzled: "Brother Liang said to put them all back?" Will they find out for us when they get back? ”
Zhao Ziliang sneered: "Their handle is in our hands, and if they don't do things for us, aren't they afraid that we will leak the news that they have defected to their masters?" If they still want to live, they can only do what we say! ”
Li Cheng was confused when he heard this, and asked, "Brother Liang, what's going on?" Did you catch the delicate work of the Turgish? ”
Zhao Ziliang nodded and said to Wang Can: "You go and do it, do it beautifully!" ”
"Yes, Brother Liang!"
Zhao Ziliang said to Zheng San next to him: "San'er, tomorrow you go back to the castle to tell the castle lord about today's events, but ask the castle lord to keep it secret, and it is not appropriate for others to know at this time, and let the castle lord inform the brothers who are checking the city gate to keep their eyes a little brighter, and don't let people with ill intentions get in!" ”
"Okay, Brother Liang!"
