Chapter 190: Go with the flow
Thank you for the monthly pass of Ecodivine!
Guo Fang was suppressed before, and he saw with his own eyes that a few sergeants rushed forward to kill in order to rescue him, and they scattered their formations and rushed forward to kill, but they died in front of him.
Chase the horse!
Jiang Long faced another horse bandit leader.
The previous shots of Tudu and Gunty Buck made Jiang Long clearly realize that his attacks could be diversified.
Sometimes the other party makes a surprise move and uses a killer move, if you don't take special precautions, then you are likely to be killed by the other party in an instant.
So he didn't give his opponent a chance, and used his marksmanship with all his might, and the tip of the gun was like raindrops, directly shrouding the horse bandit leader in a shadow of a gun.
This bandit leader didn't have much skill in his hands, and he was promoted because he was very loyal to the big leader.
Unlike the two who were killed by Tudu and Gunty Buck before, they climbed to the position of leader by virtue of their real skills.
There is also infighting in the bandits' den, and it is very cruel, and the big leader has to promote some henchmen, and with the help of these people, he can sit in the position of the boss.
The leader of the horse bandits was obviously invincible, and he looked panicked and dodged left and right, and after more than a dozen moves, he was shot in the chest by Jiang Long, screaming and falling off the horse.
There were no bandits around to help the leader.
Because at the moment when the big leader turned around and fled, it meant that the big leader had given the order and could retreat.
The sergeants of the border army were in high spirits at the moment, and they chased after them.
Some of the sergeants snatched horses from the bandits, jumped on them, and clung to the back of the thieves' buttocks.
Along the way, the corpses of horse bandits were left behind.
Guo Fang still failed to kill the leader of the horse bandits in the end.
The big leader of the horse bandits does have some ability, and Guo Fang doesn't dare to chase too far.
In the end, it was only a wound that was not deep but a foot long cut in the back of the big leader of the bandits.
The speed of the snow field was fast, and Jiang Long also caught up with it and picked down several escaped horse bandits.
But he didn't dare to chase too far.
By the time Jiang Long rode back on horseback, Guo Fang had already ordered his sergeants to treat the wounds of those injured robes.
And make statistics.
The border army lost 38 people in this battle, 108 were slightly wounded, and 4 were seriously wounded.
Guo Fang's face was pale, if he hadn't been entangled by the three horse bandit leaders before, he would have been injured, and no sergeant would have scattered his formation and desperately stepped forward to rescue him.
Thirty-eight people died, but twelve died to save him.
Seeing Jiang Long turn back, Guo Fang restrained his anger and stepped forward to thank him, "Thank you Lord Jing for your rescue, if Lord Jing hadn't killed him in time just now and stabbed a horse bandit leader to death, I am afraid that the general would have to explain here today!" ”
"Lord Guo is too polite." Jiang Long hugged his fists and saluted back, "When you go to the battlefield, everyone is a brother, and if your brother is in trouble, can you still see death and not save it?"
Besides, with Lord Guo's ability, it is not a problem to deal with those bandits at all. ”
"Lord Jing, don't laugh at this official." Guo Fang waved his hand ashamedly, and then said in a loud voice: "But what Lord Jing said in the previous sentence is very right, when we go to the battlefield together, we are brothers, you brother, this official recognizes it!" ”
"Brother Guo!" Jiang Long said immediately.
"Brother Jiang Long!"
Guo Fang Haha stepped forward with a smile and slapped Jiang Long on the shoulder.
Here the border army quickly prepared the aftermath of the war.
Jiang Long, Guo Fang took the guards and personal soldiers to the direction where the forbidden army was located.
Many of the men came here to help bandage the wounded sergeants.
Compared with the border army, the forbidden army in this battle is about to suffer heavy losses.
Mu Xuan sat in the big tent and looked at the statistical results, his face was as black as ink, and he almost vomited blood.
One thousand forbidden troops, just for a short time, were two hundred killed in battle and one hundred and fifteen seriously wounded.
As for minor injuries, almost everyone has some injuries.
Of course, it was not the fight with the horse bandits that hurt you, but the inevitable bumps and bumps when you escaped.
Thousands of households Mao Ming, as well as hundreds of households Wang Chang and Xu Youcai stood quietly aside.
There was also a hundred households He Yi who had been ordered by Mu Xuan to stop the soldiers from escaping, but died under the knife of the horse bandits.
"Wang Chang!" Mu Xuan suddenly raised his head, his face grim.
Wang Chang was frightened, "Lord Mu, the information we collected is wrong!" He knew that Mu Xuan wanted to ask Jiang Long if he was dead.
"Huh?" Mu Xuan's nasal voice turned a corner.
"This kid from the Jing family is not a weak scholar who is powerless at all, and the lower official saw with his own eyes that he had a good marksmanship, rushing into the group of horse bandits, as if he were in a no-man's land......" Wang Chang reported everything he had seen before to Mu Xuan.
Mu Xuan was surprised.
The Jing kid was able to kill two horse bandit leaders?
Even if one is a sneak attack, the other is a head-on fight.
And the guards around him are also extremely strong!
"Xia Guan thinks that if he faces the enemy head-on, he is definitely not the opponent of the Jing family's boy." Wang Chang said again.
"This Guo is a big deal!"
Mu Xuan roared in a low voice.
If Jiang Long really had the ability, then if Wang Chang had followed up and attacked in secret, it would be possible to kill Jiang Long.
But he was stopped by Guo Fang and asked Wang Chang to take the sergeant to guard the salt.
Wang Chang hesitated for a moment and then said: "Xia Guan also doubts whether the people who were sent to assassinate the Jing family kid last time all died in the hands of the Jing family kid......
The words were not finished.
Mu Xuan had already understood, "Are you worried that someone will be captured alive?" ”
"Hmm!" Wang Chang nodded heavily, "Most likely, you haven't seen the skills of the Jing family kid and those Jing Mansion guards with your own eyes." ”
"You're not going to be scared, are you?" Qianhu Mao Ming suddenly sneered and mocked.
Xu Youcai, who was standing on the side, also couldn't see that Wang Chang always praised how powerful Jianglong was, and looked disdainful.
Wang Chang's face turned red instantly, but when he opened his mouth, he didn't say anything more.
Mao Ming is a thousand households, he is only a hundred, and in Mu Xuan's eyes, his status is far inferior to Mao Ming.
"That's it!"
Mu Xuan waved his hand rudely to interrupt the dispute of several people, now he was in a very bad mood, but he didn't have the patience to listen to these subordinates arguing back and forth.
Now the question is what to do?
His sergeants lost more than a third, and most of them were frightened.
It cannot be recovered in a short time, and there is not even the slightest combat effectiveness at all.
But there's still a way to go.
Besides, he had already negotiated with a few vendors and had taken a deposit in advance, so how could a third of the salt in the queue be delivered?
zuihou is Jiang Long, I heard Wang Chang say that Jiang Long is quite powerful, and the guards around him are also good, how to get rid of it?
This is a task assigned by Cheng Guifei.
If you can't finish it, you will definitely have to eat and hang.
"Bear with me, young man." An elderly man was carefully bandaging the wounds of a Praetorian sergeant.
Where have the sergeants suffered like this before?
The pain was painful and painful.
The doctor who accompanied the army was only responsible for administering medicine.
There were so many injured people that they couldn't keep it busy on their own.
"Mu Xuan, for his own selfishness, colluded with the traders to hire horse bandits to plunder the team, so that so many sergeants died, or became crippled for life!" Guo Fang glanced at Jiang Long, who had an indifferent expression, and said, "Don't you feel indignant? ”
Jiang Long just shook his head, "Is it useful to be angry?" ”
"You can see it." Guo Fang haha smiled.
At Jiang Long's age, Guo Fang couldn't see it.
He served in the frontier, and was promoted step by step from a big soldier to a ranger general of the fifth grade, and his mentality was also slowly changing.
At the beginning, he was a hairy boy, but he only knew that he relied on brute force to charge and kill the enemy, and cut off the enemy's head to make meritorious service.
and other positions are promoted, only to slowly discover a lot of dark and dirty things.
He hates, he is angry!
How many brothers-like robes died on the battlefield?
Even some good brothers lost their precious lives in order to protect him, and their parents and elders turned gray overnight, and their wives and children wept.
He thought about avenging his brothers and killing all those who couldn't do business!
But in the end, I found out how small Liliang was.
The road ahead can only go with the flow.
If you dare to touch the interests of those people and rely on those people, not only will your own head be lost, but even your family will surely die.
As time passed, he also looked away.
can only hold on to Zuihou's bottom line.
It's not to look at!
Jiang Long didn't say it, but he replied firmly in his heart.
If you look at it, you don't care.
And he, for example, is going to make some people pay!
A corpse in the distance, it's all human life.
After continuing to move forward for a few more steps, a loud slap suddenly sounded beside him, causing Jiang Long and Guo Fang to look over.
"You old thing, you want to hurt me to death?"
It turned out that a young sergeant had four fingers cut off on his right hand, and the doctor gave him medicine and asked a man to come and help bandage it.
Minfu is an old man, although he is light-handed, but his fingers are connected to his heart, and this kind of pain will naturally not hurt because he is careful with his movements.
The sergeant couldn't stand the pain, so he raised his left hand and slapped the old man hard.
After the old man was slapped, not only did he not get angry, but stepped forward to support the sergeant with pain on his face, and kept comforting, "You bear with it, bear with it again, and it won't hurt in a few days." ”
Most of the people recruited this time are old, and it is not the imperial court that only requisitions the elderly.
It's that it's very dangerous to go to the frontier this time, and if you're not careful, you won't be able to come back.
Where are the elderly willing to let their children in danger at home?
Therefore, they stuffed silver into the local government officials and replaced their children by themselves.
The people of Daqi were conscripted into service by the government every year, and the government had a record, and the men in the family rotated every year.
There were many projects for conscription, such as digging canals, opening rivers, leveling fields, opening mines, and recruiting people to help the army transport goods, and transporting grain to the government.
And it is most dangerous to use this kind of transportation to the frontier in the conscription.
In general, the son replaces the father, and the young man is strong and strong, so that the old man suffers less, but this kind of conscription is the father instead of the son.
Old people will think that they are old bones anyway, and they will die if they die.
The child is still young, and there is still a lot of time to live.
Most of the people are kind and simple, and the old man in front of him is the same.
"I'll put up with your mother......" The young sergeant didn't appreciate it at all, and raised his hand again to fan the old man's old face.
The old man didn't dodge, otherwise the young sergeant would move too much and involve the wound.
The palm of his hand was about to be approached, but at that moment, a spear suddenly appeared, piercing the young sergeant's wrist.
Blood splattered!
