Chapter 384: Tongue Catching
Pang Gang, who came from later generations, always attached great importance to reconnaissance work on the battlefield, and since he had no reconnaissance planes, let alone any reconnaissance satellites, this heavy task was all placed on the shoulders of the night guard.
In view of this, Pang Gang's investment in not collecting at night is also regardless of the cost, weapons are chosen at will, armor is chosen at will, and the salary is three times that of ordinary sergeants, and of course, the danger is also several times that of ordinary sergeants.
Now, Gu Chen's first thought after discovering the traces of the rogues was to quickly turn around and return to the report, but he immediately thought again: "No, we still have to see what these thieves have and what they have in mind, we have to catch a few live mouths and ask." ”
But it is not very difficult to catch alive in the thousands of enemy troops, and if you don't get them, you have to pay for them.
Gu Chen, who was scratching his head, raised the clairvoyant mirror again and looked ahead, and found that there was a plain in the distance of the river, where there were ruined houses and broken walls, and the four fields were depressed, but there were also faint rogues. If you want to catch a tongue, it is best to find a remote place to catch it, and there are so many rogues in the hills that it is obviously impossible to catch a tongue.
At this time, Wei Lao Er on the side came over and said with a strange smile: "Gu Tou, are you having a headache and how to catch your tongue?" ”
The Wei brothers have been following Gu Chen for two years, and they are already familiar with each other to understand each other's meaning with one action, and seeing Gu Chen's familiar expression at this moment, Wei Lao Er still doesn't understand Gu Chen's troubles.
"You're talking a lot!" Gu Chen glared at Wei Lao Er, handed him the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, pointed to the plain in the distance, and said, "See, there are rogues in the house there, and there are not many of them, let's go there and catch a few tongues." ”
Wei Lao Er smiled strangely: "Okay, we have killed too many Tartars, I don't know how these rogues are compared to Tartars." ”
Listening to Gu Chen's words, several people beside him all showed excited expressions, although they didn't know how many people there were on the other side, and there were only eight people on their side, but no one showed a nervous and fearful look, they themselves were the most elite soldiers of the Qingzhou Army, and even the murderous Tartars couldn't win favor in their hands, let alone these rogues.
"Brothers!" Gu Chen's sharp eyes glanced around at everyone, "We are the first batch of the Qingzhou Army to fight with the Liukou, and the huge people also said, we are the elite of the elite if we don't collect at night, there is nothing we can't do, are you confident?" ”
The night did not accept and shouted in unison: "Don't worry, my lord, I promise to complete the task!" ”
With everyone's low voices, Gu Chen waved his hand, "Get on the horse!" The people jumped on their horses with swiftness and circled to the east.
With the popularity of the Minnie rifle, more and more people have gradually accepted this long-range and high-precision weapon, such as Gu Chen's squad, four of the eight people carry the Minnie rifle, although they have not completely given up the cold weapon, but its proportion has dropped significantly, such as the longbow or crossbow that is necessary for the original night is almost replaced by the handcuff and the Minnie rifle, but the horn bow is convenient for silently attacking the enemy, The strength to kill the enemy without a shadow is still a necessary weapon for the night.
As for the inconvenience of the Minnie rifle to reload on horseback, the Night Collectors have also summed up a set of skills for firing and reloading on horseback, although it is not as fast as in the land mountain, but this does increase the long-range attack ability of the Night Collectors.
Gu Chen and the others cautiously came to the dilapidated house in the east, everyone dismounted five hundred steps away from the house, Gu Chen dismounted and said softly, "Brother Wei, Fang Laosi come with me, Xiaohu, Xiao Zhao and Feng Ye are in the back, remember not to shoot easily, but if you shoot, everyone has to hurry up and work, and retreat immediately after finishing, don't entangle with the rogue!" ”
"Yes!"
After speaking, everyone swept towards the front playfully, and when Gu Chen took the Wei brothers to a house that had been burned half, they heard a burst of strange screams and laughter coming from inside.
"Come on, come on, everyone raise their glasses, and they've all done this!"
Gu Chen looked around vigilantly, and found that he didn't see anyone sentry, and the disdain for the rogues in his heart was a little more aggravated, these rogues were really careless.
After a slight pause, his right hand turned back and made a gesture of outflanking the Wei family brothers and others who were following him, everyone understood, and even tightened the weapon in his hand and touched it forward, Gu Chen held a scimitar in his left hand, and ran in front with a handcuff in his right hand, and soon, they touched the outside of a house.
At this time, a rogue wearing cotton armor came out of front of him, he swayed and walked to the door, because of the incident, he suddenly took a look at Gu Chen.
"Ugh!" The celebrity was stunned for a moment, shook his head in confusion, and then his eyes widened violently, and his mouth opened.
Suddenly, a cold light flew by, and there was an extra hilt on the neck, and although the mouth of the rogue was wide open, it could only make a faint "ho-ho" sound, and it fell to the ground like a rooster with its neck cut and made a dull sound.
This sound also made the shouting of the rogues in the room a little quieter, and one voice shouted, "Lai Laosan, you can't walk after just a few fucking drinks of cat urine, this is too fucking inferior, hahaha"
There was a burst of laughter in the house, and the four of Gu Chen took advantage of this laughter to touch the door, and looked out the window to see that there were five rogues in light armor in this room that was already exposed skylight, pushing cups and changing lamps, and drinking so happily.
Gu Chen made a gesture to the people beside him, and after everyone understood, the Wei family brothers immediately touched the door and nodded at Gu Chen, Gu Chen took out a horn bow from behind him and wound it, and a sharp triangular arrow was firmly pointed at a rogue.
Gu Chen looked at everyone, some of them took out horned bows, some took out flying knives, Gu Chen nodded at them, the Wei brothers immediately rushed into the house, at the same time, Gu Chen's fingers also loosened the bowstring, and in less than an instant, the sharp arrow was inserted into the throat of a rogue, revealing only the bare tail of the arrow.
At the same time, the Wei brothers and Fang Laosi also made a move, a burst of arrows and flying knives flashed, and four of the rogues in the house fell, and before the remaining one could react, Wei Laosan rushed over, and a fist as big as a teapot smashed on his head, and the unlucky rogue felt that his eyes were dark, and his whole body fell softly.
"Take the people and go!"
Wei Laosan immediately put away his fists, picked up the fainted rogue, and ran out
