After coming out of Zhoujiazhuang, due to the sufficient grain and grass supplement, the physical strength of the two battalions of soldiers and horses under Pang Yue and Wang Dongri was well recovered. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 However, due to the increase in the amount of baggage carried, the speed of the march was still neither fast nor slow as before, up and down forty or fifty miles a day. Because of the tight schedule, Pang Yue had to compress the rest time of the team to the maximum, and two of them were almost day and night. Fortunately, there were no large enemy troops on the road, so the physical strength of the soldiers was not too much exertion, and they could barely support it.

Along the way, Pang Yue ate and lived with the soldiers, gave up his tent to the wounded and sick, and almost gave up all special treatment. This move moved the vast number of officers and men even more, so although they were in a hurry, almost no one complained. However, due to the lack of medical treatment and the lack of timely medical treatment, only about a dozen of the dozens of seriously injured people have improved, and the rest have died due to the deterioration of their wounds. Pang Yue asked these martyrs to be buried one by one, and then he became more determined to improve the medical care system for the army.

After more than ten days of trials and rains, on the seventh day of June, the team finally entered the territory of Hangzhou. Seeing that the destination was already in sight, Pang Yue couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time ordered to slow down the march slightly so that the soldiers could take a breath.

*********

In the afternoon of this day, after arranging the camp, seeing that it was still early, Pang Yue asked Wang Dongri to take care of the camp on a whim, and he took dozens of personal soldiers to hunt in the surrounding mountains and forests.

Riding on the galloping warhorse, looking at the lush and vibrant mountains and forests around him, and feeling the refreshing wild atmosphere, Pang Yue's mood couldn't help but be very happy, and most of the haze that had accumulated in his heart a few days ago was removed.

"Xiao Yongzi, haven't you always said that your archery skills are good? It's up to you today! Pang Yue reined in the horse's head and smiled at Jin Yong, a soldier on the side.

Jin Yong, who was born in Orion, looked eager to try: "My lord, just take a look!" ”

"My lord, look at that!" Zhou Tianzheng on the other side reminded Pang Yue in a low voice. Pang Yue looked in the direction Zhou Tianzheng pointed, and saw a big guy lying in the bushes of the woods on the side of the road, and his body seemed to be a muntjac.

Heh, is this a gift from God? Pang Yue was overjoyed in his heart, and he opened his bow and shot an arrow. It's a pity that the archery skills of the huge general don't seem to be very clever, but the distance of more than forty steps is actually missed. The iron-spine arrow was nailed to a tree next to the muntjac with a whistling roar, and the muntjac was frightened, jumped up and began to run wildly.

Seeing that the muntjac escaped, Jin Yong and the others didn't have time to sigh, so they chased after them. Pang Yue shook his head self-deprecatingly, alas! My archery skills really need to be improved! However, the prey escaped from his own hands, and Pang Yue naturally did not want to stand idly by, so he chased after him with a spur.

Jin Yong was originally proficient in archery, but at this time he didn't play much of a role, because in the past, when he hunted, he walked on foot, but now on a galloping horse, the accuracy of the arrow is naturally greatly reduced. A series of arrows all missed, and only the last one barely hit the back of the muntjac's buttocks. Who knows, after the muntjac suffered, he ran more happily, and he was about to escape from everyone's sight.

At this time, Zhou Tianzheng, who had not made a move, shot his first arrow at the right time, and the people behind were holding their breath and waiting for the final result.

I saw that the muntjac who was running wildly was shot in the neck and fell to the ground and struggled. Seeing that the prey finally fell to the ground, several pro-soldiers cheered and rode their horses over with a few arrows, and the muntjac did not move at all.

"Hahaha......." Pang Yue ran over and saw the fat muntjac on the ground, he was very happy, "As long as I shoot this guy, I will be worth the trip today!" After speaking, he looked at Zhou Tianzheng beside him with approval. …,

Since he came out of Zhoujiazhuang last time, because he couldn't find a suitable position for a while, Pang Yue kept Zhou Tianzheng in his own personal army as a chief. Through more than ten days of contact, Pang Yue found that this Zhou Tianzheng was indeed a manufacturable material. Although he was born in a gentry family, he did not have the bad habits of some gentlemen and disciples, but inherited more of his father Zhou Yuanqing's character, who was bold and generous, and soon became one with the officers and soldiers, and his skills were also quite good.

"Congyun (the word that Pang Yue just gave Zhou Tianzheng) is really a good archery! If it weren't for your final blow, this guy might have escaped. Pang Yue said to Zhou Tianzheng with a smile.

Zhou Tianzheng smiled disapprerovingly: "The adult has won the prize, and the subordinates are just lucky." Among these brothers, there are many people whose archery skills surpass mine, such as this Jin Yong brother, who is much stronger than me, and I just relied on the horse I had ridden for a few more days before to barely steal his limelight. If you really stand on the flat ground and compete, hehe, then I will never dare. ”

Seeing that Zhou Tianzheng was not only good at archery, but also sensible and knowledgeable about advancing and retreating, Pang Yue couldn't help but have a little more affection for him, and he was secretly glad that he had won a talent.

Pang Yue nodded, turned around and pointed at Jin Yong and scolded with a smile: "Little Yongzi! How about you bragging about being a good hunter in the past? This time, Zhou Tianzheng stole the limelight from you! If so, then I will have to punish you well! Well, well, if you can't get any more decent prey, then you'll watch the other brethren eat meat tonight! ”

Everyone suddenly burst into laughter, Jin Yong's face turned red, and he said unconvinced: "My lord, my subordinates are here to put down their words, if I really don't find anything today, then I won't go back to the camp until I hit the prey!" ”

"Good! Then I'll wait to see how you perform! A few people gather their prey, and the others get on their horses and continue to look for prey! Pang Yue commanded.

"Yes!" The pro-soldiers got on their horses one after another. A moment later, dozens of horsemen departed with a whistle.

*********

In the following time, Pang Yue and his entourage gained a lot, in addition to hitting dozens of hares and badgers, there was actually a slightly smaller muntjac and more than a dozen pheasants. Jin Yong also proved with practical actions that his old profession is still there, and the muntjac is his trophy, in addition to four hares. Although he abandoned his horse and walked to get it, it was finally a shame.

"Hehe, it's really fun today!" Pang Yue looked at the elated soldiers, and he was also very happy, "You are all heroes!" When I get back to the camp later, I'll be sure to add an extra portion to you when you eat meat! ”

"Thank you, sir!" The soldiers cheered.

"It's getting late, that's all for today, let's go back to camp!" Pang Yue waved his hand and stopped everyone's commotion.

Who knows, at this moment, there was a faint sound in front of him.

"Huh? What was that? Pang Yue became alert and opened his ears wide to listen carefully. I could only hear the sound becoming more and more intense, mixed with the neighing of horses and the shouts of people, and if you made careful identification, there was actually the sound of swords and soldiers colliding.

"Ma Yuancheng, take a few people over to have a look! Remember, don't disturb the other person. Others get ready! Pang Yue commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes, sir!" Ma Yuancheng dismounted and walked with a few pro-soldiers, and touched in the direction where the voice came from.

The other soldiers formed a circle, drew their swords one after another, and watched the movements around them with wide eyes, protecting Pang Yue in the middle.

After a while, Ma Yuancheng rushed back with people and ran to Pang Yue's side.

"What's going on?" Pang Yue asked. …,

"Back to my lord, on a road on the other side of the forest, there are more than a dozen people who look like merchants are being besieged by dozens of people armed with swords. The men who attacked them were dressed in a variety of clothes and armed with a variety of weapons, and they seemed to be bandits from the neighborhood. However, there seemed to be a few people in the group who looked like merchants who were doing quite good work, so they were still struggling to support themselves. Ma Yuancheng replied truthfully.

Alas! It seems that now it is really a troubled time! Even Hangzhou, which has the reputation of "there is heaven and Suzhou and Hangzhou below", there are robbers in Hangzhou! Pang Yue felt angry and funny, but according to his character, Lu saw that he was uneven, so he naturally drew his sword to help, so he ordered everyone: "Everyone put the prey in place, follow me, and teach that group of robbers a good lesson!" Dare to do that no business in broad daylight, there is really no king law in the sky! ”

*********

Outside the woods, on a straight avenue, a horse-drawn carriage was crooked on the side of the road, and a dozen guards were guarding a middle-aged man in the middle, desperately resisting the attacks of dozens of bandits.

"Brothers, do you see their carriages and their clothes? That's a big deal! Rush up and kill them all, and the big boss will be rewarded! Beside the bandit leader, a cross-eyed guy shouted excitedly.

Hearing such a promise, the bandits let out a burst of screams and intensified their attacks. Although there are a few of the besieged guards who are extraordinary and have killed many bandits in a row, as the saying goes, a good hand can't stand a large number of people, and the bandits rely on their numerical advantage to compress the guards' defense line step by step.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more critical, the middle-aged man who was guarded in the middle sighed and shook his head again and again: "I didn't expect that today I would be buried in the hands of a group of rats!" It's not worth it, it's not worth it! ”

A person who looked like a housekeeper next to him hurriedly persuaded: "Master, don't worry, the little ones will definitely escort you to leave safely!" ”

The middle-aged man smiled miserably: "So far, where is there a way out for me to wait?" Forget it, bring me my sword! Being able to kill a few thieves is also a good deed for me to do to the people of the Ming Dynasty! ”

"Master......" Two lines of tears flowed from the butler's eyes.

Just as the middle-aged man drew his sword, the rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded in the distance. Hearing this voice, the butler's eyes couldn't help but shine, and the middle-aged man's constricted brows were also relieved.
