Chapter 35: The Big Fish Is Caught
"These horse bandits are too bold, they dare to camp here, do you really think we dare not pursue?" Wang Yuze and Wang Wei were lying on their stomachs less than 500 meters away from the camp of the Liqing Horse Army and the horse bandits, secretly observing with binoculars. It was only after chasing out such a small distance that they caught up with them, which made the pursuing Sichuan Western Army very shocked.
However, even so, the Western Sichuan Army will not let them go. Behind Wang Yuze, the reinforcements from the third company and the battalion headquarters have been slowly deployed. After forming an encirclement, they will launch an attack and take advantage of the situation to wipe out these horse bandits.
"Either their leader was kicked in the head by a horse, or they didn't expect us to chase us. This time, let them know how powerful our western Sichuan army is! Wang Yuze said excitedly. Then, Wang Yuze and Wang Wei retreated, got back on their horses, drew their long sabers, and prepared to launch the final attack. And Wang Wei was even more nervous. Of course, he is not afraid of fighting, but in the next battle, he must do his best to protect Wang Yuze's safety.
"Bang!" A crisp gunshot sounded extremely loud in the cold night. This was the signal for the Western Sichuan Army to launch an offensive. The soldiers of the 600 Western Sichuan Army drew their sabers one after another, and even in the dark night, they could clearly see this kind of snow brightness, as if a large piece of snow was waving.
"Attack!" Wang Yuze shouted, and the hundreds of people from the third company who came to pursue immediately rushed out. At the same time, in other directions of the encirclement, almost at the same time, the roar of the attack sounded.
The Green Horse Army and the horse bandits, who had entered a deep sleep, were also awakened at this moment. Suddenly, they realized that a catastrophe was coming. He hurriedly got up and ran towards the war horse, trying to escape by taking the road. However, it turned out that there were enemies on all sides.
Ma Qi in the tent slept more peacefully. However, as soon as the gunshots rang out, he immediately jumped up from the thick sheepskin mattress and rushed out of the tent in two steps, only to see the panicked soldiers and horse bandits. Outside, the soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army had already arrived, and the long swords were waving in their hands. Wherever they pass, there is no living mouth.
"Kill!" Wang Yuze let out a loud shout and slashed at the neck of a panicked horse bandit. Suddenly, the head of the horse bandit rose into the sky. Bright red blood sprayed on the snow, and it looked so dazzling. The first time he killed someone, Wang Yuze was a little nervous. But at this time, he was not allowed to think about it at all. The high-speed charging war horse made him have to swing the saber in his hand quickly. Driven by a war horse, he often doesn't need much force to split the enemy in half.
Under the onslaught of the Western Sichuan Army, the Green Horse Army and the horse bandits soon collapsed. When they found that they had been surrounded by the Western Sichuan Army and had no way to escape, they immediately despaired. Whether it was the Green Horse Army or the horse bandits, they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. And at this time, the Western Sichuan Army stopped killing.
One by one, the torches were lit, and the Green Horse Army and the horse bandits, who had lost their combat effectiveness, were all arrested. After collecting their weapons, they tied their hands again, so that they no longer had the power to fight back. Of course, in the process, if someone tries to resist, they will be killed directly. After killing two people in a row, the rest of the people are all honest. After all, no one wants to die, even if they only live a little longer.
"Battalion commander, it's all caught!" At this time, Zhang Shusen caught up. To the more than 100 captives whose hands were tied, Zhang Shusen's face was also full of smiles. Although he only came to the grassroots units to carry out tasks, if he can obtain combat merits, it will be even better, and it will also be very helpful for his future promotion. More importantly, he took this opportunity to get closer to Wang Yuze. After all, Wang Yuze is a young marshal, a handsome man in the future. As long as you can get Wang Yuze's other eyes, his soaring prosperity is close at hand!
"Excellent! Company Commander Wang Lung, this time you have made a great contribution to the third company! You and Deputy Company Commander Wang Wei can be regularized, and you don't need to act as an agent! Zhang Shusen exclaimed.
"Yes!" Wang Yuze and Wang Wei were both overjoyed and gave a military salute to Zhang Shusen. After all, they have only been here for a month, and it is not a small improvement to remove the word "acting" so easily and become the official company commander and deputy company commander of the third company.
The soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army escorted the captives all the way back to the station, and in order to ensure that they were not escaped, they almost adopted a person-to-person approach to these prisoners. Under the escort of the Western Sichuan Army, he did not return to the military station until midnight. Among them, Ma Qi did not escape and was mixed among the captives. It's just that he is also wearing the clothes of ordinary horse bandits, so his identity has not been revealed.
At the military station of the third company, Shi Deyou, the platoon commander of the third platoon who stayed behind, had ordered the cooking squad to prepare enough hot meals and hot soup for the soldiers to dispel the cold. All the soldiers who returned to the barracks were able to enjoy a sumptuous meal. The hot meals and hot soup were warm in the stomach, as if the chill on the body had been completely dispelled at this moment.
"Battalion commander, go and rest first! These captives are in our hands, and we will screen them tomorrow! Wang Yuze said to Zhang Shusen.
"Okay!" Zhang Shusen nodded and entered the dormitory specially prepared for him. As for the rest, it's just a squeeze. The third company's military station can only accommodate more than 300 people at most. Suddenly, more than 500 people poured in, and it suddenly became very crowded. However, it is better to rest in the barracks than in the snow outside.
As for the captives, they were not treated so well. Not only was there nothing to eat, but they were also put in the stable. The Western Sichuan Army did not treat them as human beings at all.
"Young Master, what should I do? There are well-defended Western Sichuan troops all around, and we can't escape! An officer of the Green Horse Army whispered.
"Don't act rashly just yet. As long as I don't reveal my identity, they won't do anything to me. Then look for a chance to escape! Ma Qi thought for a while and said. There was no way to do it, and after being captured, he knew it was bad. The Qingma Army and the Western Sichuan Army have faced off for many years, and this is the first time that so many prisoners of the Qingma Army have been captured. It's like a stolen one, and if you know his identity, it's even more terrible.
The next day, the herdsmen and their cattle and sheep in the playground of the barracks left early in the morning, after all, now that the horse bandits had been eliminated, they would no longer be in danger. Staying in the military station all the time had a great impact on the daily management of the Western Sichuan Army. Of course, when the herdsmen left, they were naturally grateful to the Western Sichuan Army. If it weren't for Sichuan West, in the face of so many fierce horse bandits, their fate can be imagined.
The screening of prisoners also began early in the morning. Wang Yuze was sure that among these horse bandits, there must be people from the Green Horse Army, so he went to the scene in person.
One by one, the bandits who were locked up in the stables were brought out, and they were asked for their names and places of origin, as well as the forces to which they belonged. After answering, you can get a steamed bun. For these cold and hungry bandits who have been hungry all day, this is simply a delicious thing!
These horse bandits are all rough men, and a steamed bun is not enough to even stuff between their teeth, let alone fill their stomachs. Some of the timid bandits had to stand up, while others moved other thoughts.
"Sir, can you give me more! One steamed bun is not enough to eat! A black and thin horse bandit, said pitifully.
"Of course, if you cooperate, we'll take care of it. Plus, you'll get a barbecue, as well as a bottle of wine! Wang Yuze said immediately.
Suddenly, the horse bandit swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"Sir, what do you want to know, just ask, I'll tell you all I know!" The horse bandit said immediately.
"Among you horse bandits, are there any people from the Green Horse Army, and who is the leader?" Wang Yuze asked.
The horse bandit hesitated for a moment, but he really couldn't stand the temptation of wine and meat, and suddenly said: "Sir, our attack on the military station this time was gathered by the Green Horse Army. The leader is Ma Qi, the eldest young master of the Green Horse Army! ”
"What? Ma Qi? Wang Yuze was surprised and delighted.
