The plains were full of corpses of rogues, some of them had a few deep cuts in their clothes, and many of them had shocking blood holes on their bodies, and many of them were knocked away by galloping war horses. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although these people did not die immediately, they all lost their combat effectiveness, and they were all driven back to the night without receiving a knife, they did not let go of these people, and the Yong'an Army never took prisoners.

The smell of blood was much dissipated by the cold wind, but the smell was still disgusting.

The five of them sat here all night, the battle was not long, and after a short battle, each of them took off their tattered clothes stained with blood, and the blood stains did not know whether they were rogues or their own.

Revealing the fine armor inside, these nights did not close this only then did I feel a sense of powerlessness from my body, although I practiced every day, but after such a high-intensity battle in such a short period of time, everyone was a little unbearable, and the wounds on my body were also faintly painful.

Although they all had fast horses, there were too many thieves, and the rogues fled in all directions, and they killed the last rogues they saw, and they didn't know how many of them ran away.

After all, there were only five of them, and they were inevitably overwhelmed, and they didn't have the heart to count how many thieves they had killed now.

They went to see the woman lying quietly in Lai Damao's arms, this woman had been draped in Lai Damao's Yong'an Army autumn uniform, breathing evenly, and should be able to survive, but she had not woken up yet.

Lai Damao looked at the woman who was rescued by himself, and he knew in his heart that this woman must have been the lady of a large family in the past, and she was taken captive by the rogue.

The rest of the people also looked at this woman, and they also understood the woman's previous identity, and they were all a little happy in their eyes: "Fortunately, she is not dead, she should be sent to the city hospital for recuperation as soon as possible." ”

A Yong'an soldier sighed at night, his eyes were full of coldness: "The rogues are so vulnerable, we should return to the lord as soon as possible, so that everyone doesn't have to worry too much about the entry of the rogues." ”

Lai Damao said firmly: "For some reason, I feel more and more that only under the rule of adults can have a good life, you see, the rest of the places are not a mess!" ”

The other person nodded, suddenly got up and said: "That's right, I am determined to protect Ulzhou with this body, and in this life, I will only follow the adults to kill the thieves, and I will never stop killing all the thieves and Tartars!" ”

Several people were relatively lightly injured, Lai Damao was the most seriously injured, and the five people took out the herbs they carried with them and put them on them, and after a little rest, several people divided their labor and left.

They brought the armor, clothes, and machetes of the old camp of thieves, and searched the bodies of those people, and there was a lot of silver, especially the old camp, which carried more than 20 taels of silver with them.

A few people led the horses of the old camp, put the clothes and banners of those rogues on the horses, and then cut off the heads of the rogues one by one, and there were as many as thirty-two in a rough count.

In the end, the five people sat together, and Lai Damao said: "The harvest is not small, there are more than forty taels of silver, and it is not easy for everyone, so it is divided." ”

Xiao also clearly stipulated in the Yongan Army Reward and Punishment Regulations that the silver taels obtained in battle should be based on each armor, and no more than 100 taels could be distributed by themselves, but no matter how much grain, grass, ordnance, horses, cattle and sheep should be handed over in full, and they could be distributed according to military merits.

Lai Damao said, his eyes suddenly became stern, and he said: "But the thieves and old camp horses and armor must be handed over, and the regulations must not be violated." ”

According to the regulations of the Yong'an Army, when going out, the gains and losses must be reported in full, and if the number of people is the same, the victory will be recorded once, and the victory will be recorded once if the number of people is inferior, and the first meritorious service will be recorded if the number of people is extremely disadvantaged.

However, this is only a written record, and the rest depends on Xiao Yi and others' consideration of the specific situation.

The five of them were a little happy, they had only been in the Yong'an Army for more than half a month, and they had made a military exploit, not to mention that they had received a lot of silver, but only to say that the merits they had obtained this time were enough to make them ecstatic.

This time, the five of them defeated dozens of rogue bandits, but there is no way to verify how many thieves they defeated after they went back, but the thirty-two slashing level is indeed a real military feat, at least one first-class merit can't run.

One army is thirty-two, which is a rare rank even in the Yong'an Army at this time, and it is foreseeable that in the subsequent evaluation of the whole army, several people in this army will inevitably stand out in the team at night, so they will get the attention of the adults of integrity, and thus get promoted.

Xiao Yiyong'an's army was only a reconnaissance and sentry team, which was also Xiao Yi's original intention of establishing the night team, and the selected sergeants were also the less powerful among the first teams, but since the battle of Tujiagou.

All the first teams are the elite of the team that does not close at night, and after the competition with Guan Ningjun, this idea is even more valuable in everyone's hearts.

The Yong'an army has strict hierarchies and strict regulations, even if there is more silver, no matter how good the life is, when you meet a sergeant with a higher level than yourself, you still have to pay homage, and it is the main theme in the army to listen to the orders of the superiors.

Therefore, in order to obtain military merits, so as to improve their status in the army, this is what every soldier thinks, and this is also different from the situation of other Ming armies.

Other Ming armies do not have such a strict hierarchy, meritorious service is not rewarded or meritorious service is everywhere, you have money, even if you are just a small soldier in the army, your status is extraordinary.

Those who have made meritorious contributions are not promoted, and even persecution occurs from time to time, and those who practice diligently not only do not get the respect they deserve, but are regarded as idiots, and poor military families are actually servants of rich children in the army.

As a result, everyone does not practice and is afraid of death in wartime, that is, officers and men have no sense of belonging, and naturally no one wants to make meritorious contributions except for the senior officials, and everyone can get by.

A person who did not accept the night was not without envy: "Captain Lai Wu has made a great achievement in killing the old thief camp this time, and he is finally going to be promoted, and the brothers are also very happy in their hearts." ”

Lai Damao waved his hand, glanced at the old camp with a broken head over there, and sighed lightly: "Don't mention this, I'm more anxious than all of you, this guy's head has been opened by me, how can I take it back to remember the merits." ”

In the Yongan Army, military merits have always been recorded at the head level, which is also one of the regulations.

One of them was a little surprised, and asked, "Could it be that Captain Lai is working so hard for nothing this time?" ”

Lai Damao also had no choice, and said, "What can I do then?" ”

The rest of the people sighed, Lai Damao has always seen what they have been doing, and they are not inferior to Wei Zhongwen and Wei Zhongwen in all aspects, but they just don't have a chance, and they are still a captain until now.

This time I finally came to an opportunity, but I encountered such a thing again, without the leader's first-level military merits, it was one level lower, this level is simple to say, but the essence is here.

While several people sighed, suddenly a woman's words sounded: "A few strong men saved me from danger, and the little woman couldn't repay it, but it was enough to prove it for this military master!" ”

The person Lai Damao was holding suddenly made a sound, which also startled him, and he looked down and saw that the woman's eyes were looking at him.

Quickly put down the woman, jumped up flexibly, looked at the woman, scratched her head and said embarrassedly: "Aunt, girl, when did you wake up?" That, just now... Don't think about it! ”

The woman smiled softly, making the eyes of several people who had never seen a woman look straight at night, especially Lai Damao, who actually swallowed his saliva and found out that he looked like him, and Lai Damao also smiled.

The woman couldn't help laughing, and said bluntly: "Why, a strong man can kill that thief, but don't you have the courage to embrace the little woman in his arms?" ”

Lai Damao only felt that he didn't know where to put his hand, and he didn't lift it up when he put it down, and finally gritted his teeth and stepped forward to take the woman into his arms again.

Seeing that the surrounding nights were all looking at him with surprised eyes, he pretended to be tough and said, "What do you see, is it not practiced?" Wait for Lao Tzu to go back and train you again, and watch! ”

A few people who didn't accept their grievances retracted their eyes and turned around to tidy things up, but a few people gathered together to say something, and the shaking of their shoulders made Lai Damao frown.

muttered: "Damn, these boys just don't have practice." ”

The woman in her arms leaned on Lai Damao's arms safely, which made her feel a sense of security that she had not felt for a long time.

She also watched this scene, and heard Lai Damao's muttering is also straightforward, Lai Damao saw the woman smile, so he looked at the woman again, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After the tidying up, a few people hung their things on their horses, and hung their heads on thirty bloody heads on their horses, and they drifted away. (To be continued.) )
