Chapter 110: Practicing Murderous Courage This Morning
More than 100 riders, in addition to those who tripped in the horse pit at the beginning, dozens of arrows fell off their horses, and the rest of the people saw that the momentum was not right, hurriedly reined in the reins, and turned the horse's head.
But who doesn't know that "shoot a man before a horse"? Under the fire of crossbow arrows, where else can they run?
For a while, people neighed on their horses, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
A few clever rogues saw that the limelight was not right, and hurriedly abandoned the injured horses and fled into the woods on both sides of the official road. If you are unlucky, you will fall to the ground directly by an arrow, and if you are lucky, you will run into the forest.
After all, there are only five hundred men in ambush, and only fifty crossbowmen, and there is still a time interval for bows and arrows. In order to encompass these rogues, everyone's ambush circle was longer, and the density of bows and arrows was limited.
When the others saw this, they also abandoned their horses and went into the woods, and their targets were scattered at once. Thinking about it, it can be seen that if it is still on the official road, it is a live target. Running into the dense forest, there is still room for a fight.
Not far away, there was the sound of weapons striking, followed by a scream. I think it's a short battle between soldiers and bandits, and I don't know who is being stabbed, but I just listen to the screams, and those who are stabbed can't fall well.
Dao idiot was heartbroken, looked at Lu Bing beside him, and saw that his face was also pale.
looked at the soldiers around him, but as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, he looked at Xing Baihu with bright eyes. Xing Baihu said: "Catch!" Don't run away with any of them! ”
All the lieutenants were beaming, and in their eyes, it was not a person, but silver, and a meritorious service.
Lu Song took the twenty crossbowmen and still stared at the official road. For the bandits who have already entered the forest, the bow and crossbow lose their advantage, and those who have not escaped also need to be careful.
At this time, the bandits who did not run into the forest were mostly injured, so they did not have time to enter the forest. There were crossbowmen staring at them, but they couldn't make a fuss for a while, and the remaining hundreds of people began to scatter in the forest to catch the bandits.
This is not a simulation game, just a few feet in front of Dao Idiot and Lu Bing, a school captain was wiped on the neck by a rogue who came out of the forest, and blood spurted out for a long distance.
The two lieutenants hurriedly chased after him, and a small flag squatted down, tried the man's snort, and was already choked.
When the lieutenants hunt the bandits, they also have to deal with the hunting of the bandits.
It's just a blood-spurting painting, which seems to remind everyone that they are not facing homeless people, but rogues who have been rampant in Jiangxi for more than ten years. If they want merit and silver, they have to fight for their lives against these outlaws.
The Taoist idiot grabbed Lu Bing and looked around vigilantly.
The captains had dispersed, and there was a faint sound of fierce fighting in the distance, and Tiger Head and Chen Chizhong were nowhere to be seen.
Lu Bing's body was trembling slightly, and his face was pale without a trace of blood.
Dao Idiot sighed secretly, pulled Lu Bing to turn around and go back to Fang Cai's ambush, and no longer walked into the forest. He knew what he wanted, he wasn't one of those lieutenants after all, and he didn't care about using his rogue head to get promoted and make a fortune.
Lu Song saw the two of them turn around, his eyes turned around on Lu Bing's face, and he asked the idiot, "What's wrong?" ”
"The rogue began to fight back, and one of the lieutenants died." Dao idiot.
Lu Song looked at the idiot carefully, and saw that although his face was a little pale, he was quite calm; In contrast, his son is too timid. Although he was a little disappointed, he was facing bandits, and he didn't want to force his son to practice courage at this time.
He said "um" and turned his head to look at the people on the official road.
The idiot also followed his gaze, the scene was very tragic, some directly broke their necks and swallowed their breath, some were trampled to death by wounded horses, and more were hit by crossbow arrows and had difficulty moving, and moaning sounded in their mouths.
There were also some horses that had broken their legs and fell to the ground without breathing, and they were screaming.
Lu Song didn't look at Lu Bing, and said to the idiot: "Come with me with the knife." After that, he called the dozen or so spies, and went out of the forest together and went to the official road. The crossbowmen were still commanded to be on guard.
On the side of the official road, there were two corpses that had fallen to the ground after being hit by crossbow arrows.
A spy stepped forward, looked at the tiger's mouth of the corpse, and said, "My lord, it's Lian Jiazi." ”
looked at a seriously injured moaning man next to him, looked down at one or two, and said, "My lord, this hurts my lungs, and I can't last long." ”
Lu Song pointed to the person in front of him and said, "The lightly injured ones are all tied, and the seriously injured ones are dragged aside, and I will ask for the news of the five brothers Jiang." ”
Several spies responded, but Lu Song didn't move, pointed to the seriously injured rogue next to him, and said to the idiot: "Go and give him a good time!" ”
The Taoist idiot held the hilt of the knife and stared wide-eyed, although he knew that he had come out this time for training, but when he really wanted to take someone's life with his own hands, his heart was pounding.
Seeing that he hesitated, Lu Song snorted coldly and said, "Can't do it?" The benevolence of the woman is these bandits, not to mention how they committed a lot of crimes when they were in Jiangxi, but there were fewer crimes on the way north? In the early hours of this morning, they slaughtered a Zhuangzi......"
Before the words fell, the sound of "fluttering" blades into the flesh was heard.
The idiot had already drawn his knife and stabbed it into the left chest of the rogue.
The man screamed, a mouthful of blood foamed out of his mouth, kicked his legs, and swallowed.
The idiot only felt that his body was a little out of strength, and he used the waist knife as a crutch so that he did not slump.
He let out a long breath and slowly pulled out the knife, and the blood on the cold white knife was very distinct. The Dao idiot lowered his eyes, calmly cut off a piece of cloth on the man's body, picked it up with the tip of the knife, and wiped the blade.
Lu Bing stood behind the Dao idiot, watched all this, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and his face became more and more pale.
Lu Song glared at the idiot, without the slightest hint of praise, frowning and reprimanding: "Why don't you cut your neck?" That's the fatal blow. When it came to the enemy, the wrong choice would cost you your life. ”
The Taoist idiot grabbed the handle of the knife vigorously, nodded, and said solemnly: "Not next time!" ”
The air was filled with the smell of blood, and the strength drained from his body slowly flowed back. This is not the legal society five hundred years later, this is the Ming Dynasty. There are water bandits on the boat, there are road bandits on the road, and there is no shortage of ruffians and hooligans in the city, if he does not have the courage to fight the enemy and cannot protect himself, then the cat will eat and wait for death in Anlu.
Looking at his solemn appearance, Lu Song suppressed the smile in his heart and said, "Guess what, the five brothers Jiang are not among these people?" ”
Dao Idiot thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not there." Since he has been a bandit who has been rampant in Jiangnan for more than ten years, how can he be defenseless at all. If it was so easy to catch, he would not have been wanted by the Criminal Department for more than a year, and he would still be at large. ”
Lu Song didn't nod or shake his head, just glanced at the idiot, then looked at Lu Bing, and said, "Are you afraid?" ”
Lu Bing straightened his chest and said: "I was afraid, but now I'm not afraid!" ”
Lu Song snorted and said, "Go find the two who are seriously injured and died, and give them a ride!" ”
Lu Bing gritted his teeth and said, "Hmm! ”
After answering, the little one puffed up his chest and went to look for the spy in front of him.
Dao idiot looked at Lu Bing's figure, and stopped talking, is this really good for Lu Bing? Lu Bingke is a real eleven-year-old boy, Lu Song is not afraid of frightening his son?
Lu Song seemed to see what the Taoist idiot was thinking, and said, "When I was eleven years old, I was already familiar with knives. Speaking of this, he paused and said: "The Lu family was originally a hereditary Jinyi Guard, even if he followed the prince to become a vassal, he was also a Jinyi Guard." By His Royal Highness's side, it is even more inappropriate to slack off. Only by learning to kill can you not be killed by others, and you can better protect Your Highness. ”
At this time, Lu Bing has already found a good candidate not far away.
He screamed and slashed down, the sharp blade cutting off the human head in an instant, and the human head rolled out, bringing out a trail of blood.
Dao idiot and Lu Song looked at each other, and saw Lu Bing's figure froze after swinging the knife, and it took a long time before moving.
Seeing such a bloody situation, the Dao idiot did not have the disgust when he killed people with his own hands, but was a little worried, and looked back at the dense forest.
It's not that I'm worried about the safety of the tiger head, when everyone dispersed, the Taoist idiot saw clearly that Xing Baihu was carrying the tiger head. With his precious strength for the tiger head, even if he is injured, he will not let people hurt the tiger head.
Lu Songping looked extremely lenient, and when it came to actual combat, the training students and his son were so cold; Xing Baihu's fierce one, how fierce is it?
The lieutenants who were chasing in the forest came back one after another, some of them tied people up, and some of them dragged their bodies out.
On the official road, these people are tied up similarly. Lu Song took a few steps forward and went to ask for a confession.
Lu Bing picked up the waist knife and returned to the Taoist idiot. Although he had only passed the tea effort, it was no longer the same, there was still no blood on his face, but there was no timidity in his eyes.
"Second brother, they should be damned!" Lu Bing said word by word.
Dao idiot nodded and said, "That's right, they are bandits who plague the people, and it's not a pity to die!" ”
Lu Bing lowered his head and said, "The bones are so hard, and the palms of Zhen's hands hurt." If only a few more...... The blade is about to burst out! ”
This kid is still panicking.
The idiot didn't answer, only listened to his broken thoughts.
"Blood is splattered on me, and I smell of blood all over my body......," Lu Bing said: "Now I feel stuffy in my chest, disgusting, but just retching." If it weren't for the fear of my father scolding me, I really wanted to hold my throat and spit out. I don't want to eat meat anymore...... The man stared at me one last time, and his eyes were so scared......"
In the last sentence, the voice is inaudible.
The Taoist idiot looked at him, a layer of fine sweat on his forehead, and there was no fear in the child's eyes, and fear remained in his heart.
The Taoist idiot said: "The purpose of death is innocent people, even if you don't kill him, the law of the country can't spare these outlaws." Not to mention that they are seriously injured and dying, even if they are imprisoned, they will not be able to survive for two days. ”
Lu Bing was silent for a while, and said, "If His Highness knew that the second brother and I had killed someone, would he dislike us?" ”
Dao Idiot shook his head and said: "Kill bandits today, tomorrow you can stand in front of His Highness and kill the enemy, that is, practice martial arts, it is better to kill than to be killed." You want to be His Royal Highness's guard in the future, do you really have the ability to be strong? ”
Lu Bing stopped talking.
Lu Song has already asked for a confession, just as the Taoist idiot guessed, among these bandits, there are no five Jiang brothers. Most of them are the younger brothers of the five Jiang brothers, and some of them are new to the Liukou among the displaced people.
They occupied Xiaogan County this morning, and the five Jiang brothers distributed their horses and weapons, and ordered everyone to divide their troops and wait until Shaanxi to gather again, in addition to more than 100 horsemen from the direction of Anlu, there were more than 100 horsemen to the direction of Yingcheng.
The latter message did not come from the mouth of the rogue, but from the newly returned spies......
