In the north of Bianzhou, there is a county name Fengqiu, go to Bianzhou City for 60 miles in the north, adjacent to the boundary of Huazhou, the terrain is flat, and there is no boundlessness.

In the north of Fengqiu County, more than ten miles away from the city, it is the junction of Bianzhou and Huazhou, and more than 100 people gather here at this time. People are dressed in cloth, horses are equipped with good saddles, saddles hide sharp blades, people and horses have a fierce spirit, at first glance, it is inevitable to suspect that they are horse thieves.

From time to time, two horsemen came from the north of the official road and reined in their horses in front of the people.

"Kong Dutou, they're coming!" Horse rider fingers north.

These more than 100 people were sent by Kong Xun to intercept and kill the Taiyuan officials, and they chose the place at the junction of Bianzhou and Huazhou, which can be described as deliberate.

The first person, with thick eyebrows and a black face, and a burly figure, was displeased when he heard that he was displeased, and shouted: "What are you screaming about!" There is no hole here, only Kong is in charge. If you want to say the wrong thing again, if you don't hear it, beware that Lao Tzu cuts out your tongue and feeds it to the dog! ”

The man shrank his head, fearful.

Kong Dutou turned around and glanced around at the more than 100 soldiers, "The matter that the military commander ordered me to do is very important, so I will let the tricks shine brighter, and I have to get rid of one." If it is done, the commander will be rewarded, and if there is such work in the future, there will be a share of you and me; If it doesn't work out, don't talk about rewards, you and I have no reason to live! Did you fucking hear me clearly? ”

The crowd agreed.

Kong Du bowed his head to express his satisfaction, turned the horse's head, took the lead, and led more than 100 people to the north.

These people have a fierce temperament, neat manners, and they are all in the prime of life, no matter how you look at it, they don't look like old and weak who should be laid off.

Actually, this is not difficult to understand. The imperial court ordered the feudal towns to eliminate the old and weak, streamline the soldiers, and the feudal marshals were rarely allowed to make obstacles from it, and some of the soldiers were clearly elite, and the feudal marshals intended to divide them out of the military and raise them as private soldiers in the mansion, specializing in some unsightly deeds. This is also no better than before, the vassal marshal acts, can no longer be lawless, need to cover up more, if the same light years, the vassal marshal rampant in the domain town, how could there have been so many scruples, anything can make the tooth soldiers blatant.

The men and horses who escorted the Taiyuan officials were led by a member of the criminal department of the imperial court, but they brought a few scribes, and the guards along the way were mainly Hedong soldiers drawn by Xia Luqi, and there were forty or fifty people in total.

When approaching the junction of Huazhou and Bianzhou, Wailang, a member of the Criminal Department, said to the head of the Hedong Army: "I received news a few days ago that this trip into Bianzhou, I'm afraid the road will not be peaceful, you and I might as well stop here for a while, and wait for the person who responds to arrive, and then it's not too late to go." ”

The head of the Hedong army said: "Who will come to meet us and others, and when will it arrive?" ”

Yuan Wailang shook his head and said, "Today, it will definitely arrive." As for the identity of the other party, the matter is confidential, and I can't say it lightly, don't blame it. ”

Du Tou grinned and said, "Okay, it's all arranged by the outsider." ”

Wailang was about to say something, but suddenly his face changed and he looked south.

Not far away, a team of people and horses galloped wildly, and smoke and dust billowed out.

The head of the Hedong Army asked Yuan Wailang, "But who is the person who responds to what Yuan Wailang said?" ”

Wailang took a deep breath, "The color of the suit is wrong, and it doesn't look like it, if it was someone who was waiting, he should have sent someone to contact him, and he wouldn't rush over like this." He looked serious, "All heads, ready to fight." ”

Dutou's face was cold, but he didn't stop for a moment, drew his sword and turned the horse's head, and shouted loudly: "The thieves are coming, form a formation to meet the enemy!" ”

The soldiers ran and moved one after another, quickly lined up around the prisoner car, and for a time the iron armor symphony, the sound of drawing knives was endless, and the criminal officers in the prison car looked forward in amazement, some were surprised, some were panicked, and some had gloomy faces.

Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, and several scribes lived behind the battle, close to the prisoner car. The foreigner's face was solemn, he pulled out the sword at his waist, and immediately lifted the reins, ready to fight the thief.

The sky was overcast, and the black clouds rolled like waves. There is no one else in the four fields, and the silence is vast.

The horse team came too fast, and the Hedong army was able to form a formation, and before the arrangement was completed, the horse team had already killed the front. Seeing that the soldiers of Hedong were arrayed in a line relying on the prisoner cart, and knowing that there was no possibility of assaulting and circumventing the rear from both flanks, they galloped past both sides of the prisoner cart and slashed with their swords at the speed of their horses.

The soldiers next to the prisoner cart did not carry shields, so they could only stab their horses with spears or raise swords to block them, but they were wearing armor, and although some soldiers were stabbed, the casualties were not great for a while.

A small number of the soldiers with bows and arrows became the greatest support of the Hedong army, they climbed onto the prisoner cart, drew their bows and arrows and shot high, but they won a lot of money, and shot down several horse thieves in a short time.

The horse thief, who unfortunately fell off his horse, was rushed up by the Hedong army after his comrades galloped past, and despite their screams, he was hacked to death with knives and blood, while some of the seriously wounded in the Hedong army were quickly pulled behind the battle.

When Kong Dutou led the horse team to turn and kill back, his face was even more hideous, seeing the opponent surrounding the prisoner car and lining up, although it seemed that there was no dead end, but the opponent's soldiers were few and the circle around was not small, and the entire long formation was actually relatively weak. Kong Du was ruthless, he had a lot of people, and he had the advantage of war horses, so it was impossible to fight but he didn't care about anything else, and commanded the horse team to crash straight into the Hedong military formation.

When the Hedong army saw the horse team rushing directly over, they couldn't help but be shocked, and their hands clenched their spears and horizontal knives, but they didn't realize that they were a little tighter. The horse team took the lead in two horses, leaned over and hugged the horse's neck, the war horse met the spear of the Hedong Army, directly broke the spear, knocked the armor soldier away, rushed out of two steps, the war horse was wounded and neighed upright, the horse scolded, but took the initiative to fall to the ground, rolled around, one of them was hacked to death by a random knife, but the other successfully held a knife to block the blade, and knocked down a soldier in front of him.

The horses that followed rushed over one after another, passing behind the riders who had pounced on the armor. The soldiers saw that the war horses were coming, such as the mountains crushed, frightened, some fierce and brave, saw the opportunity, cut off the horse team with a knife, roared to kill the thief, and some held a spear, stabbed the rider off the horse with a spear, but the comrades did not have time to go up to mend the knife, and were knocked out by the follow-up war horse.

Several horses fell to the ground one after another, most of the riders were seriously injured, either pressed by the horses, or rushed up and slashed by the armor, there were good luck and good skills, they were prepared, and they fell off their horses at a good time, and they could get up and fight again, and those who were caught in the crowd and the horses could not move forward, also dismounted and fought on foot.

The horse team was divided into several batches, attacking the armor soldiers in different areas, and before long, the two sides fought in one place. If the follow-up horse team cannot rush in, they will dismount in turn and join the ranks of foot combat with swords. The sergeants of Hedong, relying on their own armor, were not afraid of the thieves and the strength, and met the enemy one after another. The thief slashed horizontally, but failed to break the armor, and his horizontal knife brought out a large blood groove in the opponent's chest, and blood rushed to his face.

However, the Hedong army had few soldiers in the end, and although they had armor, they could not form a dense formation because they had to escort the prisoner carts, and they were mainly impacted by the opponent's horses, and they were soon killed and wounded in sections.

As soon as one of the fallen thieves got up, he saw a scribe in an official robe standing in front of him, and he roared: "Die! He slashed with his sword, but the next moment he froze, blood gushing from his mouth, and his hands gripping the sword that had been inserted into his lower abdomen in disbelief.

Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, killed the thief, and when he was still frightened, he heard a "Lang Jun beware", turned his head in astonishment, and saw a thief raising a knife to cut him, he couldn't pull out his sword, hurriedly let go, and retreated in a hurry by instinct, but was still cut on the back shoulder by the other party, and immediately fell to the ground.

A Hedong soldier rushed up, fought with the thief, and finally slashed the other party to death, and hurriedly went to help up the criminal department member Wailang, and saw that the other party was pale, and his face was sweating like rain, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "Protect the prisoner and kill the thief!" ”

The sounds of killing around him continued, the figures were one after another, and the sons and daughters fell to the ground, yelling, fighting, screaming, and fighting endlessly, like a hundred beasts competing for food, pounce and bite, and blood dripping.

The sky was even more gloomy, and the clouds were dark, and the ground was darkened.

......

After a long time, the battlefield movement was much smaller. At this time, the corpse fell to the ground, and the armor and thieves were densely mixed, and blood stained the loess. Kong Dutou and dozens of horse thieves stepped on the corpses on the ground and forced them towards the prisoner car.

In front of the prisoner car, there were only a dozen soldiers left, and all of them were wounded, but they clenched their blades, but they did not have a trace of fear, and stared fiercely at the thieves in front of them. To this day, no one has fled. Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, leaned on the prisoner cart, his arm holding the sword trembled, and the blood gathered into a trickle, flowing from his hand to the sword, and then dripping from the tip of the sword to the ground, accumulating into a puddle.

Yuan Wailang glanced at the side, the two scribes of the criminal department had already lying on the ground and did not move, the blood pool under him was shocking, a little farther away, the neck of the head of the Hedong army was cut off in half, and his head was tilted to the side, miserable, he knelt on the ground, and he had already lost his breath.

Kong Du stared at Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, and said with a hideous face: "If you kill more than half of Lao Tzu's brothers, you will all die!" ”

Wai Lang, a member of the criminal department, gritted his teeth and struggled to stand up straight, his hand holding the sword was still trembling and bleeding, but his gaze at the thief was unwavering, and he said word by word: "With the law of force, the country will not tolerate it, and now you can die, and you will be punished in the future!" A certain is an official of the Criminal Department, enforcing the law for the country, what is the fear of death, you and other martial artists, the people are raised by flesh and blood, and harm the people and the country, they are also big husbands, and they are ashamed of you! ”

Kong Dutou was furious, he couldn't stand anymore, and rushed forward with a knife, "You are looking for death!" ”

The outsider raised his head and stood with his sword in his hand.

There was a thunderous roar, resounding through the heavens and the earth.

Dozens of thieves, my heart was shocked.

Before the summer, why thunder?

Stunned, there were countless rides on the road, all in green clothes.

The Tsing Yi horse team rushed to the scene without a word, and directly entered the group of horse thieves. The dozens of horse thieves were exhausted at this time, and they couldn't help but be heartbroken, and fled in all directions.

The leader of Tsing Yi is Zhao Xiangyao, he dismounted and drove forward, and came to the front of the criminal department member Wailang, "A certain step late." ”

The young criminal officer Wailang smiled and fell on his back.

......

The rain came out of the sky and crackled everywhere, and the water droplets smashed into small round pits on the dirt. At first the dust swallowed the raindrops, which left no trace. As the raindrops became more and more dense, the dust could no longer wrap them, but was covered by rain, and the ground soon became wet.

"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, Zhao will escort you back to the west." Zhao Xiangyao helped up the weak criminal department member Wailang, the other party's injuries have been preliminarily treated, and the situation has stabilized, "Take the shortest road to leave the border of Bianzhou, there are also hundreds of miles away, fortunately, the criminal department is already on the road, you must hold on." ”

There are more than ten surviving armor soldiers in Hedong, two of them are seriously injured, one has swallowed his breath, one is still struggling to support, and the other people are slightly or seriously injured, and then they have to travel hundreds of miles on the horse, Zhao Xiangyao is worried about whether the other party can survive.

Wai Lang, a member of the Criminal Department, nodded, "There is an escort from the Military Intelligence Department, it is expected that Kong Xun will not dare to make any more ideas, and when he meets Bibu Langzhong, he will be safe, and there is no need to walk a hundred miles." ”

Everyone lifted their spirits and hurried again, and the injured soldier rode with Tsing Yi.

After traveling fifty miles, to Guoqiao, the incident started again.
