Chapter 29: Horse thieves raid Mi County
After the sword and shield soldiers won, it was naturally the next group of soldiers to fight, and he could also go down and rest.
At the moment, the Praetorian Guard regiments are all infantry, and the archers have just appeared, and they are still in training, mainly infantry.
In fact, there are three main classes in the early stage of the game, cavalry, infantry, and archers, these three classes are the main troops, and of course there are a few others, such as sailors and chariots.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, following the war method of the Zhou Dynasty, it was mainly based on chariot soldiers, and it was described as a unit of multiplication, the country of a hundred multiplication, the country of a thousand multiplication, etc., only later after the Zhao State Hufu cavalry shooting, cavalry gradually became the mainstream.
Not to mention the naval army, this is mainly the southern river basin in Chinese history, the southern water system is developed, the Yangtze River tributaries are innumerable, the battle of Xianning Chibi, and the decisive battle between Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang in Poyang Lake, are all naval forces.
At the beginning, Ren Tian was still quite interested in watching the performance of his Praetorian Guard soldiers, but when he got to the back, he felt a little tired, after all, this was not a war scene, and it was still boring for two people to fight back and forth.
After winning the last fifty soldiers, Tian Dan immediately said: "According to the previous military regulations, fifty people can eat this banquet, the first ten people can share 50 taels of bounty, and the rest of the people, wait until next time you have a chance." ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers on the school field were like rainbows, and the fifty soldiers who won went to eat the meat with pride on their faces, and the pork feast that had been cooked and roasted exuded an enticing aroma.
Ren Tian is very satisfied, and if he continues like this, it is estimated that it will not be long before the Praetorian Guard Legion will be able to fight effectively.
……
A few days later.
On the official road near Mi County.
A caravan was heading to Mi County, and several people were still chatting.
"Hey, I feel like business is getting worse and worse lately."
"Yes, the road to the north is blocked, Qinglong Village is too ruthless, and there is no caravan left behind."
"Several counties in West Dough County are also not very developed, and you can't make much money doing business with them."
"It's better to have Xinguo in the west, but County Magistrate Xie doesn't know what's crazy, and he doesn't allow business with Xinguo."
The leaders were muttering, but at this moment, they heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Suddenly, the two stopped discussing, their faces a little uncertain.
"Rack!"
A group of people rode after them quickly, all of them wearing green clothes, but there was still excitement on their faces, and the big knives raised high in their hands undoubtedly indicated their identity - horse thieves!
The group of horse thieves, a dozen of them, were madly chasing them, their faces full of excitement and hideous greed.
The people of the caravan finally reacted, and the two caravan leaders were shocked.
"Quick! Guard the caravan!! ”
One of them yelled, and he also pulled out the knife in his hand, and then stopped, his back against the truck.
More than a dozen guards of the caravan also drew their weapons one after another, looking nervously at the horse thieves who rushed over.
This group of horse thieves in Qinglong Village is too fierce and abnormal, and they are completely murderous, and there is no practice of leaving a living mouth before, and all the caravans they encounter are killed, so even if they want to give up their goods and beg for mercy, it is impossible.
That will only die faster.
As for escaping, can a pair of legs outrun a horse? Leaving your back to this group of horse thieves is also a dead end.
"Drive!"
A horse thief took the lead, his face was full of excitement, and he rushed directly to the caravan, the big knife in his right hand was raised high, looking at the group of caravan guards with panic on their faces, without the slightest hesitation, while the horses passed quickly, the big knife was directly swung down!
Swish!
A cold light appeared, and the caravan guard had no power to resist at all, and a blood-red blood spurted from his throat.
"Ahh
The caravan guard screamed and fell straight to the ground.
Immediately after, a series of screams appeared.
The rest of the horse thieves were cut down with a knife, and in the face of high-speed mobility, those caravan guards were just a group of cabbages, ready for others to harvest.
After a round of passing, there were originally a caravan escort of more than a dozen people, only a few people were guarding the side, their eyes were full of fear, and there were still the corpses of their comrades beside them.
There was no one missing, and they laughed, pulled the reins around, and then kicked the horses in the belly again, and charged at the remaining caravan guards.
Another round, and the remaining caravan guards were all killed.
"Sweep the goods!"
The horse thieves at the head shouted, and immediately several horse thieves turned over and dismounted, and went to search for the caravan wagon.
It was also at this time that the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the back again, which was more dense than before.
When the horse thieves at the head saw the group of horse thieves coming, they immediately turned over and dismounted and clenched their fists: "See the big boss!" ”
The horse at the front was extremely extraordinary, with a dark body and a spirit in its eyes, and sitting on it was a one-eyed dragon, with a sinister aura all over his body, wearing a suit of armor, and his face was not angry and arrogant.
"These small fish and shrimp are put first, and Mi County is not far ahead."
"Yes."
The horse thief's face was full of excitement: "Big boss, are we today?" ”
The one-eyed dragon looked ahead: "Let's try it first." ”
Subsequently, a group of horse thieves went straight to Mi County with smoke and dust!
It is impossible for Mixian to be without precautions, and a mile away, the soldiers who were guarding on the arrow tower saw the smoke and dust in the distance, and hurriedly sent a signal to the city.
"The horse thief is coming! The horse thief is coming! ”
At this time, the entire Mi County panicked, and Xie Dang received the news in the county office, and hurriedly ran out.
Some of the small stalls outside Mi County, the farmers who gathered, their faces were full of horror, and they didn't even want anything, they just ran towards the city!
"Pull the gates!"
The drawbridge began to pull slowly, and the group of horse thieves had already rushed over, carrying smoke and dust, and there were hundreds of horse thieves, and the speed was extremely fast.
Some of the people who didn't have time to enter the city were already fleeing with crying and panic, but the group of horse thieves rushed in, without any reason, and their hands fell with knives, and hundreds of people died directly under the knives.
Xie Dang also climbed the city tower at this time, and when he saw this scene, he was furious: "Release the arrow!" Give me arrows! ”
There were not many soldiers in Mi County, and all the soldiers obeyed the order, and they also took out their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at the horse thieves below.
Sou!
Whoosh!
Countless sounds of breaking through the air sounded, and bows and arrows went straight to those horse thieves.
"Phew!!"
The horse thieves pulled the reins in unison and stopped directly in the distance, the range of the bow and arrow was not enough, and they could not hurt them at all.
Xie Dang stood on the city, glaring angrily.
And those horse thieves laughed and were extremely rampant, and the one-eyed dragon even said: "Xie Dang, sooner or later, your Mi County will fall into my hands!! ”
