Chapter Forty-Eight: Spotting the Enemy

"Wen Hou, what should I do next?"

For what Wen Bin said, Zheng Xiaowei and Huang Lang will figure out this key point after calming down. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 For a while, the two of them looked at Wen Bin with different eyes than before, especially Captain Zheng, who regarded Wen Hou as a general, not just an observer from the north.

"This group of bandits is a rabble, and both in discipline and quality are far inferior to the army. It's unlikely that you will miss a hit and run away immediately! Presumably still cruising around at this time, trying to take advantage of it. Wen Bin thought for a moment and then spoke.

When Huang Lang and Captain Zheng heard this, they immediately stood up straight, puffed up their chests at the same time, and said in unison: "Please also ask Wen Hou to give an order!" ”

"Good! Huang Lang General! ”

"The last general!"

"The Praetorian Guard was divided into two wings, more than two hundred people each, and searched on both sides with the path leading to Luoyun Peak as the boundary. Don't be careless, be sure to search carefully, and don't miss any details! Soldiers should be kept at a reasonable distance from each other, so that they can rush to the aid of each other if something happens. ”

Speaking of this, Wen Bin paused, looked directly at General Huang Lang with a pair of tiger eyes, and then said: "If you find the enemy's traces, you don't need to attack, after all, they are more familiar with the terrain than us!" The officers and soldiers only need to deal with it and drive the bandits in the direction of Luoyun Peak. ”

"Order!"

Wen Bin nodded, then turned his head to look at Captain Zheng, and said at the same time: "Captain Zheng!" You lead your headquarters down the trail, remember to echo with the Praetorian Guards on both sides, and don't rush in! When the Praetorian Guards come into contact with the bandits, you wait to go straight to Luoyun Peak and guard the intersection. ”

"Order!"

Military orders were issued one after another, and General Huang Lang and Captain Zheng had no doubt about this, and they received two orders in a row to show their attitude. The development of the situation was somewhat unexpected, and Wen Bin never dreamed that one day he would be able to command the army to fight the enemy.

At this time, Wen Bin cleared his throat and continued: "Luoyun Peak, there is only one path that can lead to the top of the mountain, and if you guard the intersection, you can cut off the retreat of the bandits, and finally form a situation of encirclement." When the time comes, take them and sacrifice the flag! ”

"Order!" Huang Lang and Captain Zheng said in unison.

"General Huang Lang, Captain Zheng! Quickly gather the people of the headquarters and set off immediately! ”

As soon as the words fell, Huang Zheng and the others first gave a military salute, and then turned around and walked towards the soldiers. In just a moment's effort, a group of soldiers quickly assembled on the official road, and then, under the leadership of Huang Zheng and the others, they drove in the direction of Luoyun Peak.

"Wen Hou! This trip is really dangerous, don't go there! Wen Bin took a few steps forward, as if he was going to go out with the army. When Zeng Chen saw this scene, he almost lost his soul, and after coming back to his senses, he rushed to Wen Bin with an arrow step, and at the same time spread his arms and said loudly.

"Zeng Chen! Don't stop me! This battle is very important, if I stay here, my heart will not be at ease! After speaking, he put aside Zeng Chen's hand and walked forward without hesitation.

Seeing this situation, Zeng Chen couldn't care so much, he caught up with Wen Bin in three or two steps, and then grabbed the latter, and said hurriedly: "The situation just now, Wen Hou remembers?" Wen Hou doesn't know martial arts, if there is danger, how can he save himself? If something happens to Wen Hou, what a blow it will be for us, for Xue Lan, and for the four princes! ”

What kind of etiquette or something? Zeng Chen completely left it behind, he firmly grasped Wen Bin, and said with a splash of saliva! However, the content of the words still made Wen Bin a little alert, and after a while, he patted Zeng Chen's hand and signaled that the latter could let go.

"Zeng Chen! Let it go! I'll stay here and wait for the news! ”

"Thank you! Subordinates will protect the document closely to ensure the safety of the candidate! ”

When Wen Bin was talking to Zeng Chen, the army had already left the official road and walked on the path leading to Luoyun Peak. According to Wen Bin's military order, the Praetorian Guard divided into left and right flanks and searched on both sides, while the Praetorian Army continued to move forward, but the position was delayed.

Time passed bit by bit, and the march of the team was not fast due to the need for a careful search. At this time, many officers and soldiers, including General Huang Lang, thought that Wen Hou was a little too cautious, in their opinion, there was no need to act like this at all, these bandits were estimated to have already escaped!

At this moment, in front of the left wing army, a branch suddenly shook, followed by more than a dozen sharp arrows shot out from the cracks in the trees, heading straight for the officers and soldiers of the left flank.

"Enemy attack!"

Before the aftermath dissipated, a strange sound followed, and I saw an arrow rushing into the sky from the ranks of officers and soldiers. After the strange noise, the Praetorian Army went straight along the path to Luoyun Peak, and the Praetorian Guards on the right flank quickly rushed towards the source of the sound.

Under the attack of the officers and soldiers, many bandits showed their figures one after another, and there were more than 100 people in a few moments. Seeing this, General Huang Lang couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he issued military orders one after another, ordering the soldiers not to fight hard, so they used bows and arrows to fight with them, and then drove the bandits in the direction of Luoyun Peak.

When the officers and men of the right wing arrived, a semi-encirclement situation was basically formed. At this time, the bandits were at an extreme disadvantage in terms of numbers and equipment. In desperation, in order to save his life, a bandit leader ordered a retreat and broke through the gap in the encirclement.

The bandits are the bandits, the process of retreat seems to be disorderly, you must know that this kind of breakthrough is very deadly, under the orderly pursuit of the officers and soldiers, close to forty percent of the bandits fell in the forest, and the rest fled with their lives. In their opinion, as long as they return to Luoyun Peak, they can live!

It is a pity that the heavens do not fulfill the wishes of the people, or that the wicked have their own evil retribution, and just when they thought they had successfully escaped, an army was in front of them! This army was the forbidden army led by Captain Zheng, and they were one step ahead of the bandits to the intersection at the bottom of the mountain.

"Shoot the arrows!"

At the sound of an order, nearly a hundred arrows went straight to the bandits, these arrows were full of anger, hatred, and resentment, and this moment was the moment of revenge! There is only one thought in their hearts, that is, their robes were killed by the person in front of them, and they should pay back their lives now!

After a volley, screams, howls, and begs for mercy were endless! Even so, the soldiers of the forbidden army did not change their faces, took the arrows from their quivers, and prepared for the second salvo.

At this moment, Captain Zheng ordered the shooting to stop, and ordered the soldiers to capture some of the lightly wounded as prisoners, and to kill the seriously wounded on the spot and send them on their way. Speaking of which, Captain Zheng is worthy of being a hero, he was not carried away by hatred, and he also knew how to capture prisoners, hoping to obtain information about Qiuling Mountain.

Even if they were unwilling, but the military order was in front, the soldiers had no choice but to follow it, and there was no other way. At the same time, the Janissaries arrived on the battlefield, and the two armies joined together to capture the prisoners.

The soldiers examined the bandits one by one, and only the lightly wounded were taken prisoner, and the seriously wounded were not so well-wounded. However, in the future, these captives will still be punished by national law!

At this point, the first battle with the bandits of Qiuling Mountain was over. This victory made a good start for the crusade against Qiuling Mountain.
