Chapter 423: Mountain Bandits Robbing the Road!

As soon as this group of mountain bandits rushed out of the mountains and forests, they blocked the road in front of Lu Chen. Immediately after that, from this group of mountain bandits, a big man who seemed to be the leader came out. He glanced at Lu Chen, who was standing at the front, a few times. There was a slight weakness in his heart, after all, these people in front of him, as long as they were clear-eyed people, they could see that they were not ordinary soldiers.

However, when he saw the equipment of these people again, the leader of the mountain bandits still couldn't help the greed in his heart, and shouted boldly, "This road is our territory, and we have to pay tolls to walk from here!" However, for the sake of you who have come from far and wide, as long as you hand over thirty sets of equipment, I will let you go! Forget it, it's not easy to see you, just twenty sets! ”

Hearing this, Lu Chen couldn't help but laugh at once, is this a mountain bandit? Why is there no confidence in speaking~

However, after hearing this big man's words, Lu Chen did not refuse, but showed a hint of fear on his face, and said, "This good man, since you are so affectionate and righteous, you naturally can't help but agree." It's just that I can't go to my soldiers to ask for it, so I can't let them take off their equipment and give it to you. Otherwise, send your men and let them take a few sets from those at the back of our ranks, and rest assured, I'll continue on my way as if I didn't know. I wonder what you guys think of this idea? ”

Hearing Lu Chen's idea, the big man thought for a while and said, "You should do a good job, don't play tricks, otherwise you won't be able to get out of here!" ”

After saying that, the big man immediately waved his hand, and led his subordinates to retreat into the mountains and forests again. At the same time, Yang Yi walked over from the rear and asked, "General Lu, why did that wave of mountain bandits retreat so easily just now?" Before, when he saw Youshan bandits robbing the road, he was still smiling secretly in his heart, wanting to see what to do with this Lu Chen. He wouldn't help anyway.

However, before he could be proud, he saw that this group of mountain bandits had actually returned to the mountains and forests. This made Yang Yi a little incomprehensible, when did the mountain bandits talk so well? With strong doubts, he found Lu Chen to ask the reason.

Hearing his inquiry, Lu Chen's face suddenly showed a trace of solemnity, and he said very seriously, "I have already handed over the mountain bandit tolls just now." That's why they retreated. However, before leaving, they also said that if we don't leave this place immediately, they will come back to rob the road."

Hearing this, a trace of contempt flashed in Yang Yi's eyes, he didn't expect Lu Chen to be so cowardly, facing this mountain bandit who was less than half of their troops, and actually had to give them tolls. And, now scared like this.

However, after 'knowing' that Lu Chen was so timid, Yang Yi's heart was secretly happy. The more unbearable Lu Chen's performance is, the easier it will be to complete the task secretly given to him by the prime minister.

Just when Yang Yi was secretly proud in his heart, he saw Lu Chen suddenly say to the more than 600 people led by him, "Everyone follow me and speed up!" ”

Seeing Lu Chen's hurried appearance, the contempt in Yang Yi's eyes became even worse, and then he turned around and returned to the two thousand people he led. Only then did he order to continue moving forward unhurriedly, but the two thousand of them were not in a hurry like Lu Chen, they were still walking at the same speed as before, and he Yang Yi would not be frightened by a few small mountain bandits.

Shout~

Without warning, more than a dozen large nets appeared from the mountains and forests on both sides, instantly enveloping the seventy or eighty soldiers walking behind the team. Yang Yi, who was riding forward in front of the team, immediately said angrily after learning that there was a sneak attack by mountain bandits, "Bold bandits, dare to sneak attack our army!" ”

While shouting, Yang Yi had already rushed to the rear of the team, and the other soldiers also immediately followed Yang Yi after seeing someone attacking. However, because those large nets appeared too suddenly, they were at the back of the team. When the soldiers in front rushed over, five or six hundred mountain bandits had already rushed out of the mountains and forests to confront them, and the seventy or eighty people who were covered by the net were blocked by the figures of these mountain bandits.

Seeing these mountain bandits, Yang Yi didn't want to start a war with them for a while. Even if all the mountain bandits in front of them are eliminated, I'm afraid their casualties will not be small. So Yang Yi asked in a cold voice, "You dare to attack the imperial army!?" ”

Hearing Yang Yi's words, these mountain bandits did not answer, and still confronted them. Seeing this, Yang Yi suddenly said angrily, "It seems that you mountain bandits don't know what to do, then don't blame me Yang Yi's subordinates for being ruthless!" ”

But as soon as Yang Yi's words fell, he saw these mountain bandits fleeing towards the mountains and forests on both sides almost at the same time. Seeing this scene, Yang Yi immediately burst out laughing, these mountain bandits were still afraid of themselves after all. thought that Lu Chen was scared like that by the mountain bandits before, but now he was scared of the mountain bandits and fled. Yang Yi smiled even more proudly.

However, before he could finish laughing, he saw several soldiers hurriedly running forward and said, "General, those mountain bandits have taken away the brothers who were shrouded in the net before!" ”

Hearing this, Yang Yi, who had a slight smile on his face, suddenly widened his eyes, and his face looked even more hideous, and he said coldly, "It seems that this group of mountain bandits is looking for death by themselves!" Everyone's assembled! ”

However, as soon as Yang Yi's words fell, he saw seventy or eighty people running out of the mountains and forests, and they were the soldiers who had been captured before. However, at this time, these people were only wearing cloth clothes, and their armor, weapons, and even boots were taken by the mountain bandits.

Seeing this scene, Yang Yiqi's nose was about to smoke. He looked at the soldiers who came over and shouted angrily, "You bunch of waste! What's the use of asking you!? ”

After venting, Yang Yi still asked people to distribute the spare armor and weapons they carried to these seventy or eighty people. However, they did not carry so many spare weapons, and in the end there were more than thirty people left, and there were no weapons at all.

Seeing this, Yang Yi immediately let them go back. If you don't have weapons, why are you going to Yazhou? Are you going to die?

As for the mountain bandit village, Yang Yi took a few deep breaths, but finally did not give the order to attack. Not to mention how many troops will be lost in attacking the mountain bandit village, I am afraid that it will take a day or two just to find the mountain village, and by then, Lu Chen and they will have long since disappeared.

Holding back the anger in his stomach, Yang Yi could only snort coldly in the end, and said, "Everyone assemble!" Go catch up with General Lu! ”

After Lu Chen left this area, his speed slowed down. It didn't take long for Lu Chen, who was on the way, to see Yang Yi and others catching up from behind. Looking at Yang Yi with a gloomy face, Lu Chen stepped forward with a smile and asked with great concern, "General Yang, I don't know what I did just now?" Why did you come so late? (To be continued.) )!
