On May 27, 182 AD, Ye Teng rushed out of the west gate with his army at the moment when the city gate opened.

Jingcheng County looks west to the remaining veins of Taihang, all the way to the west, and the mountains are gradually towering and majestic. Between the lofty mountains and mountains, large and small cottages are scattered, and bandits are rampant.

Along the way, Ye Teng asked a sword and shield soldier and an archer to cooperate as spies. He led a large army three or five hundred meters apart, and followed closely. Unexpectedly, after walking less than twenty miles, I encountered a group of five or six bandits who had just killed and robbed and were cleaning the battlefield.

Seeing that the opponent's strength was suitable for his own training, he immediately ordered the sword and shield soldiers to be in front, the pikemen to follow, and the archers to press the formation last, and meet them head-on.

When the bandits saw the army, they panicked a little and turned around and ran. The first time the bandits were captured, it turned into a chase. In the end, because the bandits were familiar with the terrain, they still ran away, and the other four who were caught up were caught up and killed because they were hit by arrows and affected their escape.

Ye Teng commanded the army to quickly clean up the battlefield, then retreated 1 mile, and ambushed along the road with the help of favorable terrain to recover physical strength, count battle losses and harvests.

This battle was unharmed, killing 4 small minions; 3 inferior simple knives were seized, which could only be thrown away; An ordinary-level bow and a pot of arrows, Ye Teng equipped them himself. In terms of money, he got 2 gold, 32 silver and 86 bronze, which is also a slight gain.

Ye Teng was faintly worried about the two minions who ran away, so he didn't dare to continue the march. In case of encountering a large group of revenge bandits, there is a danger of annihilation.

There's no way, the capital is too small, I can't afford to lose! Ye Teng could only continue to ambush the army, and personally probe in the direction where the bandits had fled.

Because when receiving the task of collecting bandits, there are five miniature cottages on the mission map, and the bandit escaped about 3 or 4 miles away is one of them, and each miniature bandit cottage has about 50~100 bandits.

Although everyone is at the level of Xiangyong, the key is that there are 10%~20% of the first-order thieves in the miniature cottage, with Ye Teng's current strength, even if he has rich combat experience in his previous life, he is sure to kill a first-order thief, and it is enough to choke when he encounters two. What's more, any copycat minion is also more effective than the soldiers who have just left the barracks led by Ye Teng, with higher general attribute points and more combat experience.

Ye Teng followed the direction of the miniature cottage and carefully explored the way. After walking for about 2 miles, when Ye Teng climbed a big tree and looked into the distance, he found that about 300 meters in front of him, a team of more than 50 bandits was coming with great momentum, including 5 first-order bandits.

Sure enough, it was the bandits' revenge! Ye Teng hurriedly climbed down the tree, quietly retreated, and ran briskly towards the place where the troops were ambushed. Returning to the ambush position, seeing that the soldiers were not moving, he returned to them and ordered in a low voice: "The bandits are coming soon, there are more than 50 of them, and the strength is relatively strong." Listen to my orders, 10 archers will shoot arrows with me when the enemy comes, and try to shoot a few more rounds when the enemy comes in front of them, so that most of them will be injured or flee, and then the others will rush together, understand? ”

"Understood!"

"Okay, let's continue the ambush and keep quiet."

After a while, this group of bandits appeared in everyone's sight, everyone was still motionless in ambush, the archers began to bend their bows and arrows, and when the front of the bandits entered 50 meters in front of the ambush, Ye Teng ordered softly: "Shoot!" "With eleven arrows fired, five or six bandits immediately fell to the ground.

"Go on!" Ye Teng didn't look at the results of the battle, and continued to order without hesitation.

Another round of arrows was fired, and 7 or 8 companions fell, and the bandits began to react and shouted to fight back, but unfortunately the bandit troops hid in the bushes, and the bandits' hurried return fire seemed sparse and did not cause any damage. The rest of the bandits began to rush forward.

Ye Teng didn't care about it, when the bandits rushed to about 10 meters in front of him, Ye Teng had already shot 7 rounds of arrows, most of the bandits had fallen, and only seventeen or eight were still rushing, and almost everyone was injured. At this time, Ye Teng raised his spear and shouted: "Brothers, rush, destroy them!" ”

As a result, 28 of the 30 soldiers in ambush rushed out, and only two were wounded by the opponent's bow and arrow just now.

The two sides quickly fought each other, Ye Teng relied on his rich combat experience, and with one move "indomitable", he killed a first-order bandit who rushed in front of him, and then rushed towards another first-order bandit. Because the bandits consumed a lot of physical strength when charging, and almost all of them were injured, their movements were deformed, although they were very brave, they still fell down more than a dozen in less than 2 minutes, and Ye Teng waited for work and only fell two.

When the bandits saw it, they began to panic, and I don't know who shouted: "Withdraw!" So, the war turned into a chase war, because of the lack of physical strength, under the full pursuit of the soldiers, this time none of the bandits ran away, a total of 57 bandits, 42 were killed, 15 were wounded and surrendered.

On his side, 2 people were killed, 3 were seriously wounded, and 6 were slightly wounded. Ye Teng instructed all the 19 people who were not injured to leave 5 guards and prisoners, 14 people to clean up the battlefield, and briefly treated the wounds of the wounded themselves, and then fed a healing pill to the lightly wounded, and a qi tonifying pill and a healing pill to the seriously wounded.

After that, the handling of the surrendered bandits began. Since these bandits surrendered and already belonged to Ye Teng's subordinates, they were already able to see a more detailed attribute table. Ye Teng killed all the 7 bandits whose loyalty was less than 50 points, and the remaining 8 bandits were all incorporated into the army.

With more than 50 points of loyalty, it is easy not to betray, but it is difficult to say below 50 points. And now that we are at war, there is no time to slowly brush up loyalty, so, just to be on the safe side, you can only kill all those whose loyalty is below 50.

Except for 1 first-order archer, the remaining 7 bandits are all minions, including 2 archers, 3 sword and shield soldiers, and 2 pikemen.

In addition to obtaining 3 gold, 256 silver, and 2365 bronze on the battlefield, only 4 first-order soldiers obtained 2 ordinary level spears, a bow, 1 arrow, 1 simple knife, a shield, and 4 leather armor, which were used to replace the inferior weapons and equipment in the hands of the bandits who surrendered, and the rest of the inferior weapons and equipment were all thrown away.

After cleaning the battlefield, it was past noon, and Ye Teng instructed everyone to rest in place to replenish water and energy. Through the thieves who surrendered, he learned that there were only 15 bandits left in the cottage and only 2 first-order bandits, so Ye Teng decided to go to the camp at night to destroy the miniature cottage.

After resting for half an afternoon, at dusk, everyone had dinner in advance, Ye Teng led 19 uninjured soldiers to the cottage, and specially found 3 surrendered soldiers with loyalty higher than 60 to lead the way in front and prepare to deceive the camp, including Wang Yue, a first-order archer who was said to be born in Orion and forced to join the cottage by life.

After treatment and an afternoon of rest, the seriously injured were barely able to walk, so Ye Teng asked the rest of the lightly injured to lead the seriously injured to slowly follow behind, and prepare to spend the night in the cottage at night.

Under the leadership of the surrendered soldiers, after about 1 hour of marching on the mountain road, they finally arrived in front of the cottage gate when it was just dark. There are two torches lit in front of the gate, and two minions are guarding.

Ye Teng ordered Wang Yue to take two surrendered soldiers to shout in front of the cottage, and he led the team to follow behind slowly.

"Open the door! Open the door! ”

"Who?"

"I, Wang Yue!"

"It's Brother Wang, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm going to open it, I'm going to open it."

Because they were not invited at night, and Wang Yue's status in their gang was not low, so the cottage door was easily opened, because he was worried about waking up the bandits in the cottage, so he directly killed the two minions guarding the door, and then calmly marched into the cottage without making a big noise.
