A month later......

Kill an ordinary Qiang cavalry and reward 2,000 copper coins, in other words, in the hearts of the group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries above, the life of a Qiang cavalry can be worth forty of them, who are forcibly conscripted into the army with fifty coppers!

If a soldier can kill a Qiang heavy cavalry, he will be rewarded with 15,000 copper coins and immediately promoted to squad leader.

In the middle of the night, they lurked quietly on the prairie with evil comings, and their bodies were carefully camouflaged, even if they stood within a few meters, they could not be found without careful inspection.

In the distance, there was a roar of the iron hooves of the war horse hitting the ground, and after a while, a Qiang cavalry appeared in their field of vision, and in midnight slowly pulled up a two-meter-long reinforced longbow in their hands.

"Whoosh!"

A sharp sound of breaking wind sounded, and a Qiang knight fell to the ground with a rain of blood, and Midnight and Evil came to jump up and turn around and run.

The group of Qiang cavalry was red-eyed, they pulled out their weapons, and urged the horses sitting down to chase after them, they didn't believe that in this kind of flat grassland, two legs of a man could outrun the four legs of a horse!

But those two people ran really fast, the man who was taller than the heavy knight of the Qiang tribe could step six or seven feet away with his legs stretched, and it was natural to run fast, but why did the little guy next to him, who was a full head and a half lower, those two calves also run so fast?!

A Qiang knight couldn't help but widen his eyes and hissed: "Two stinky boys, there is a kind of you don't run!" ”

Midnight and Evil Lai suddenly stopped running, and Midnight roared wildly: "Evil Come, do it!" ”

Midnight and Evil Lai picked up their right fists and slammed them under their feet, and the thick ground that was hit by their two fists suddenly shattered, and before the Qiang cavalry could understand what was going on, they suddenly felt their feet loosen, and the man fell into a trap thirty meters wide and six feet deep in the middle of his horse.

Evil came to jump into the trap, hit people when he saw them, midnight arrows on the bowstring, standing on the edge of the trap coldly watching this slaughter of uneven power, as long as he saw someone trying to climb out of the trap to escape, midnight immediately shot an arrow over.

The battle lasted less than two minutes, and the traps were filled with the corpses of the Qiang cavalry, and even their most beloved mounts were shattered by a blow from the evil one.

Midnight said indifferently: "Everyone has worked hard, come out and receive your military merits!" ”

About forty meters away, a large piece of turf suddenly moved, more than a dozen soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Shang Dynasty army, stripped off their camouflage, and ran over with a smile, they jumped into the trap, cut off the heads of those Qiang cavalry with knives in their hands, and carefully wore hemp rope and hung it on their bodies, even the rough weapons used by the Qiang soldiers They did not let go.

Although the bloody human head looks unappetizing, it is all yellow copper! As for the weapons, although they were crude, and some of them were just a sharpened stone chip tied to a stick, they were better than the purest sticks in the hands of some of the soldiers in the barracks, right?

A soldier carried the four heads, grinned and sent them to Midnight, and said, "Brother Shichang, each of the brothers has been given a head, and these bounties belong to you and the little brother of the evil one!" Just follow you, we'll just dig the trap and the copper will go into our pockets like wings. ”

Midnight glanced at the four heads, and said, "Sun Changsheng, you are the head of the army, except for me and the evil here, you have contributed the most, you can pick one more head." ”

Sun Changsheng grinned, and in the envious eyes of the other soldiers, he smiled and shouted, "Thank you, Brother Midnight!" ”

Midnight nodded and said: "I have no other advantages as a person, I just like to make brothers with my heart, and with my meat to eat, I don't think I will let everyone drink soup!" ”

A group of soldiers nodded their heads again and again, they became Midnight's subordinates, and in just two weeks, each of them earned thousands of copper, which was already worthy of their lifelong farming at home and hunting for half their lives!

Another piece of camouflaged turf was lifted, and a large group of gang leaders jumped out with kitchen knives, and said to the captain in the middle of the night: "After cutting off the horse meat you need, remember to fill in the whole trap, and there must be no trace left!" ”

The captain laughed and shouted: "Don't worry about midnight, it's not the first time we've done this kind of thing with you, make sure that the finish is clean and neat, so that those Qiang bastards can't even find a single horsehair!" Hehe, thirteen horses, these horse meat can make the brothers of the entire barracks open meat again! ”

Two steps ahead, the captain leaned on Midnight's ear and whispered: "I still have a few pieces of bacon there, the taste is always better than this rough horse meat, I will send someone to you tonight." Also, you finally instructed the brothers below not to be too public, the entire barracks, including the squadron leader, must be limited in the amount of food, and eat bibimbap with wild vegetables every day, your brothers below don't dare to swagger and grab a few steamed buns with meat strips and pickles to run around the entire barracks! ”

Midnight nodded, patted the other party's shoulder lightly, and said: "Have a heart, although Captain Zhao Wei is just a gang leader, but in the face of the enemy, you took the lead, just used a kitchen knife, killed a Qiang knight, you are really the hero of our Dashang army!" ”

gave Sun Changsheng a look, and Sun Changsheng immediately smiled and stuffed a head into Zhao Wei's arms, and said, "This is the Qiang soldier that Captain Zhao personally hacked to death, I have already helped you take off his head!" ”

Zhao Wei looked at the head in his hand, the whole person was trembling, of course he was not afraid, when he arrived at this prairie, he had to see small-scale fighting every day, after a month or two, he couldn't get used to the corpse, he was holding two thousand coppers in his hand, as long as he could go back alive, he would be able to marry a wife and buy two acres of fertile land with these two thousand coppers.

Zhao Wei looked at the head in his hand and stammered: "This, this, this...... Brother Midnight, what's so embarrassing? ”

"You're older than me, how can you call me big brother?" Midnight chuckled and said: "Everyone is a brother, of course we have to share the benefits together, this is called being happy alone than being happy together!" ”

Midnight took ten of his brothers and they returned to the camp together. Everyone in the camp looked at the small team with green eyes, each holding a human head in their hands. A soldier whispered: "It's really more popular than people, why didn't I get a strong enough commander to be a soldier?" Look at those guys, they've already mixed at least 6,000 coppers with Ao Ziye! ”

Beside this soldier was a veteran who had been in the army for more than four years, and he said in a tone of lesson: "Brother, don't be red-eyed, we won't have a second one in the entire southeast battlefield like Ao Ziye!" I've seen a lot of guys who are good at leading the army to fight, but they don't like to be promoted to their brothers who don't want to give their military merits to their subordinates? ! As long as this proud night takes his brother out, he will always be able to hunt a few heads, and if this continues, he will be promoted to captain sooner or later, and at that time, we will find a way to become his soldiers!" ”

The soldier who had been taught nodded again and again, and walked forward without squinting in the middle of the night, and he heard the conversation between the two soldiers, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, revealing a smile that was almost demonic.

Evil Lai and Sun Changsheng took everyone to the main book of the army, and received the bounty according to the head of the people, and in the face of the four thousand copper coins that Evil Lai held in his hand, he reached out and took out two hundred in the middle of the night, and ordered: "Send all the rest back to Fengcun, ask the village chief to distribute this money equally to each family, and tell them that everything is fine here, everyone eats and sleeps well every day, it is not dangerous to go into battle to kill the enemy, and there is a bounty to take!" ”

Seeing the evil come and go away, the midnight was silent for a long time, and he casually threw two hundred coppers to the ground and slowly walked away.

In the corner behind the camp tent, there was a sudden sighing sound, and the veteran who was talking about midnight at the gate of the barracks just now walked over and picked up the copper coins that were thrown on the ground in midnight. He carefully put the copper coin into his arms, looked at the back of Midnight, and said in his heart: "What a strange person, I dare to bet with trusted people, as long as he can live for a few more years, with his generosity and scheming, he will definitely be able to climb higher and higher in the barracks." But...... It seems that this kind of person dies relatively quickly! ”
