Qu Ning didn't expect Liu Yu to pity the fragrance and jade, and pity her as a "little woman". Liu Yu had a lot of unhappiness with her at first sight, and later her relationship with Liu Yu was even more stumbling, and in general, they didn't give each other a good face.

Qu Ning went south, in addition to looking for "Liu Gongzi", she didn't want to lose face in front of Liu Yu, now that she thinks about it, she herself feels that she is too strong, marching and fighting is a man's business, how can it not be her turn to be a woman, no matter how important the lover is, she must do what she can.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." According to Qu Ning's character, she should refuse, but she also relented at this time and couldn't refuse. Being carried away finally didn't have to suffer anymore, and her feet couldn't walk anymore.

Originally, she thought that Liu Yu should laugh at her very contemptuously, at least a few jokes, but after boarding the slide, she found that Liu Yu didn't seem to be so bad. At least Liu Yu didn't come to sarcastically mock her, Liu Yu continued to drive his own way, and continued to talk and joke with those soldiers.

Maybe he didn't bother to pay attention to me. Qu Ning thought so.

Boarding the sliding pole, the road below is much more comfortable for Qu Ning, the caravan is less of her lagging legs, and the speed of travel is also much faster, and it has walked more than sixty miles in one morning, which may not be so fast in the plains. Qu Ning, who was sitting on the sliding pole, felt that these men were all walking like flying.

During the lunch break, she wanted to find Liu Yudao to apologize and apologize for her rudeness all along. Unexpectedly, she just found Liu Yu, who was listening to the pathfinder guide talk about the road ahead, and before she could speak, an accident happened, interrupting her and apologizing.

Encountered mountain bandits.

"It's the big boss. We can't afford to offend these people. Let's go up the hill. They don't dare to chase it......"

The guide spoke with a strong southern accent, and his speech was as tactful as a song, and Qu Ning tried his best to distinguish in order to understand.

Liu Yu immediately called on the soldiers to prepare to defend against the enemy, while abandoning the original mountain road to the hills, before figuring out how many enemies were coming, Liu Yu still did not dare to rashly respond to the enemy, and the result of rushing to respond to the enemy may be self-inflicted.

As soon as the caravan went up the mountain, arrows were fired from the bushes on the bandits' side. This shows that the distance between the two sides is already very close, Liu Yu immediately beckoned the soldiers to pay tribute to the mountain bandits with bows and arrows, and Liu Yu was also ready to use muskets to return to the mountain bandits when they approached further, but this would be in danger of revealing their identities.

The mountain road is already difficult to walk, and it is even more difficult to abandon the original mountain road and go directly to the mountains covered with primeval jungle. Fortunately, the guide has enough experience and knows how to find a way in such a dangerous environment, and Liu Yu is bringing elite soldiers who have experienced countless battles, and there is nothing wrong with them. It's just that the resistance of the horses seems to be great, in the case of carrying heavy loads. The horses were reluctant to go up the mountain. This also slowed down the pace of retreat.

Seeing that the vanguard of the mountain bandits was less than a hundred steps away from the caravan, Liu Yue knew that there was no way to avoid it, so he could only respond to the battle first to increase the time for the horses to retreat. Liu Yu shouted, "Array!" "A group of about a dozen soldiers with bows and arrows in their hands, with the order, released two rows of bows and arrows in a row, and could vaguely hear screams from the bushes in the distance, it should be that someone from the mountain bandits was hit by an arrow.

Because the soldier's archery is relatively accurate, and it is neatly emitted two rows of arrows with a higher density, with the conceit of the mountain bandits, they naturally would not have thought that they would encounter such effective resistance, and when they were hit, they would not dare to force it so tightly, but after all, there were dead and injured people, and the beam had already been set, and the mountain bandits could not wipe off their face even if they wanted to let go.

After releasing the two rows of arrows, Liu Yu did not continue, but hurriedly beckoned the soldiers to withdraw and continue to rush up the mountain. When Liu Yu returned to the caravan, Qu Ning, who was carried on the sliding pole, asked with a little panic: "Your Highness, where is this going?" ”

"Your Highness, don't you want to live?" Liu Yu scolded.

Qu Ning realized that he had lost his words, and changed his words: "That Xianggong...... We are ......"

Liu Yu hurriedly explained while stepping up his pace: "Go up the mountain, that is the territory of the alien race, and the mountain bandits generally dare not approach. ”

Qu Ning was a little flustered and said: "Lingnan alien race, isn't it also very ferocious......

"No matter how ferocious the alien race is, they are also ordinary people, just to survive, and these mountain bandits are robbers who kill people without blinking, can they be the same?"

Liu Yuzheng said, a sharp arrow was shot over, Liu Yu heard the wind and was short, the arrow was narrowly avoided, and even Qu Ning sweated for Liu Yu.

Originally, Liu Yu was only concerned about retreating, but he was startled by this arrow, which also forced the fire in Liu Yu's heart out. Liu Yu shouted: "His grandmother's, it seems that it is not possible to give them some color to see!" ”

Liu Yu immediately took out the short gun, and was about to teach the short gun a lesson to those mountain bandits who were in hot pursuit, when he thought of it and suddenly said: "The big boss, there is North Vietnam in front, they don't dare to come." ”

Liu Yu thought to himself, did he go to northern Vietnam? On second thought, it is not far from Lingnan now, and not even Guangxi, let alone Vietnam. On second thought, the "North Vietnamese" mentioned by the guide should be related to the "Yue nationality" among the local ethnic minorities.

Sure enough, the caravan approached a road border area that seemed to have been deliberately trimmed, and the mountain bandits below did not dare to approach, Liu Yue observed again, and the mountain bandits did not retreat, as if they were waiting. Liu Yu immediately ordered the soldiers to assemble guns, which should be the most rear-line retreat, and then retreat to the mountains, and then enter the area of the minority armed forces, which is likely to be the enemy's back. At present, the best way to deal with the country is to take the outer borders of the minority areas as the boundary and fight these mountain bandits to the end.

The soldiers retreated all the way, and they were also holding back their fire, although there were not many people in the caravan, but all of them were men who had experienced a hundred battles and refused to give in. Hearing Liu Yu's order, the soldiers began to take out the guns and ammunition in the box, and they were eager to try while assembling them.

Liu Yu looked at the direction of the mountain bandits on the opposite side, and found that the mountain bandits seemed to have a tendency to gather, and it seemed that the mountain bandits on the opposite side also knew that if they continued to force like this, this caravan would enter the territory of ethnic minorities, and then they would lose their lives and not get any money, and they would be empty of people and money.

Liu Yu estimated while preparing for the battle, there were about forty or fifty mountain bandits, nearly double the number of caravans, if it was to the point of hand-to-hand combat, then the victory or defeat of the two sides might be in five or five, after all, this is the home of the mountain bandits. Now it is necessary to suppress the musket in one round, and not to let the bandits get closer to within fifty paces.

"The second team is ready to ......"

In the actual combat of the new army, in addition to chaotic battles, positional war muskets were fired in two rows in turn, and one row fired at the other row to replenish ammunition as a tactic; this tactic was also relatively mature and practical after actual combat drills, and it could ensure that the shooting was continuous, so that the enemy would not be left with a gap in time for the enemy to take advantage of the opportunity to kill.

The specific meaning of the preparation of the second team is that the second team is filled with elixir and the first team is ready to shoot.

Liu Yu shouted this, and more than a dozen gunners had already picked up their spears, backed by a horizontal log, ready to fire.

"Shoot!"

It was originally the task of the commander, but now it has become the work of Liu Yu, the commander of the Chinese army.

"Bang ......"

Almost at the same time, a gunshot rang out, and the bullets flew quickly into the trees on the opposite side, and the mountain bandits on the opposite side obviously did not expect that they would encounter such a fierce attack when they were a hundred paces away from this caravan.

At the same time, there are countless birds of surprise.

"A team ready to ...... Shooting ......"

At the moment, Liu Yu didn't give the opposite mountain bandit a chance to think, the second round of muskets had been fired, and in just a short period of time, there had been a large number of casualties among the mountain bandits, even if they were experienced in a hundred battles, they couldn't withstand such a blow. At the same time, the mountain bandits also realized that this caravan was by no means an ordinary caravan, although there were not many people, but the combat effectiveness of the caravan guards was outstanding.

Liu Yu continued to give orders, and the soldiers fired a total of four rounds of ammunition, and the mountain bandits finally retreated, and what was originally a possible evenly matched encounter ended in a cowardly retreat on one side. Although the mountain bandits retreated in the bushes, Liu Yu was not sure whether the mountain bandits had really withdrawn, or had temporarily retreated to prepare for a comeback. Liu Yu didn't dare to relax, and while commanding to be ready to fight at any time, he went down the mountain and left in the direction of the other side of the hill.

Liu Yu was a little worried in his heart, and Qu Ning felt that he had walked through the ghost gate, and when Qu Ning heard Liu Yu's order to continue to retreat, his body was still trembling, and his feet seemed to be not obedient.

"Hurry up, do you still want to find someone to carry you and escape?" Liu Yu snorted.

Qu Ning returned to his position at this time, nodded, and hurriedly followed behind Liu Yu, and his party wanted to leave the border area of the ethnic minorities before the mountain bandits had any next move.

Liu Yu also knew that the rounds of shootings just now would soon arouse the vigilance of the people around him, and it would be bad if he was regarded as an intruder by the ethnic minorities, after all, the number of mountain bandits was not much, but the local ethnic minorities were all soldiers, and there were at least a few hundred people in a minority camp. After all, this is the dividing point between Han and ethnic minorities, and ethnic minorities also live together, and at this time, everyone understands that only gangs can better survive.

The caravan was hurriedly leading the horses around the hillside to go down the hill, when suddenly a figure appeared in the bushes, and the soldier instinctively wanted to shoot, but Liu Yu stopped the soldier's movement with a shout. Everyone looked at it clearly, and it was not a mountain bandit who came out of the bushes, but a girl dressed in a purple and red alien dress and wearing a yellow hat. The girl suddenly saw so many people in front of her, her eyes widened and she was a little frightened, and then she muttered a word, but Liu Yue couldn't understand her language, and neither did the soldiers from the north.

"What did she say?"

Liu Yu asked the guide on the side.

The guide said, "Back to the big boss, she's asking who we are." She seems to think of us as robbers. ”

There was a disturbance on this side of the hill just now, and it is not an exaggeration for people of different races to think that they are mountain bandits. Liu Yu saw that the alien girl was carrying a bamboo basket in her hand, and there were some red, red, green and green things like needles and threads, so she was sure that she had just come down the mountain, and it didn't seem to be a threat.

"Ignore her, let's go down the mountain!" Liu Yu ordered. (To be continued......)
