Chapter 40: Suppressing Bandits

The next day, east of Changxing Village, Changtian Camp Village. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Li Ran was reporting to Changtian.

"Lord, it has been found that there are more than 15,000 bandits in the bandit king village, most of them are first-order, a small number of second-order, and a few third-order, and I don't know if there are any higher. In terms of troops, the opponent has a great advantage, but our army is more elite, and I am confident that I can fight. ”

Changtian nodded, lost in thought.

The location of the bandit king village has long been discovered, almost in the middle of the entire Chongming Island, and it is an extremely rare place on Chongming Island that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

There is a small mountain range in the east and west in the center of Chongming Island, this mountain range has four branches, which are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the mountain range, and the bandit king village is located under a mountain branch of the mountain, because the cottage has a large number of people and occupies a huge area, the main part of the cottage is built on the mountain range, the mountain terrain is a little steep on the other three sides except for the piece where the cottage is established, and the so-called advance can be attacked and retreated.

"My lord, the front of the bandit king village is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and my subordinates suggest that the thieves be drawn out in batches like last time, and then strangled." Li Ran said.

"Well, I thought so too, divided our soldiers into three teams, and the three hundred men who went with us to Wu County temporarily guarded the camp, and the fighting, hurrying, and the nervousness of the ship, their physical strength had not fully recovered, so they were not allowed to participate in this battle. The other two thousand, the Promise and the Might, each of you will receive a thousand. Vigorously go to the forest to ambush, and keep the promise to lure the enemy with me. Changtian thought for a while and said.

"Lord, I'll lead the team for this kind of thing." Li Ran said with a sad face, and Sun Dali also echoed at the same time.

"It's okay, the soldiers are not afraid, what else do I have to be afraid of when I ride a horse. Besides, if I am not on the battlefield, how can I ask the soldiers to use their lives, this matter does not need to be mentioned again. Changtian waved his hand.

An hour later.

"Lord, that's the bandit king village." Li Ran pointed to the front and said to Changtian.

Changtian looked in the direction Li Ran pointed, and sure enough, he saw a huge cottage built on a mountain range in the distance, which covered an extremely wide area, much larger than his own Luoxia Village, extending from the mountain to the plain below. In front of the cottage, there are a large number of antler fences and other obstacles.

"Let's go, let's go." Changtian said confidently.

There is still a lot of distance from the bandit king village in Changtian, there is a forest in the middle, you have to go through the woods to go to the bandit king village, otherwise you have to spare a long way to go.

But fortunately, probably due to the fact that the bandits of the bandit village often come and go, for convenience reasons, a road has been carved out in the woods, and the road is quite wide enough for ten people to pass side by side.

Changtian let Li Ran change into a narrow array and enter the woods one after another.

He looked at the cottage almost in front of him, not worried about failure, only secretly estimating the huge value of the entire Changxing Village, Changtian was happy while thinking about it.

After the soldiers of Changtian entered most of it, they suddenly heard the sound of a bamboo bang.

This voice instantly woke up Changtian, who was contemplating the reward after getting rid of the three evils and the wealth and joy of Changxing Village, Changtian's brain was excited, and his eyes opened in an instant, and his face changed greatly, and he immediately shouted loudly on horseback: "Raise your shield to avoid arrows!! ”

Before Changtian's words fell, he saw a vast number of arrows shot out of the woods on both sides of the team, falling towards Changtian's team like rain.

Suddenly, there were many dead and wounded among the soldiers of Changtian, more than 20 people died under the sneak attack of this rain of arrows, and even more people were injured.

After a few waves of arrow rain, killing cries rang out, and a large number of bandits continued to pour out of the woods and rushed towards Changtian's army.

"Lord, there is an ambush!" Li Ran looked at Changtian anxiously and shouted.

Changtian saw that the situation was unfavorable, and immediately shouted: "Retreat!" ”

Although there were a lot of casualties, based on the constant fighting in peacetime, Changtian's soldiers still maintained a basic formation, following Changtian to the original path and quickly retreating, while Li Ran was broken at the end.

"Keep your promise! Don't dwell on it, retreat quickly. Changtian was very worried about Li Ran's safety and shouted at him.

Suddenly, a group of people and horses flashed on the way of the retreat of the Changtian team, and the first village owner rode on the horse and laughed proudly.

"Hahaha, none of you can leave today!"

"Originally, the two families were fine, but you strangers came to attack for no reason, today I will let you taste the power of my bandit king village, kill all of you first, and then grandpa and I will uproot the village where you are waiting, hahaha."

After the owner of the village finished speaking, he slapped his horse and spear and killed Changtian.

At this time, Li Ran was still at the end of the team, and there was no time to come up to the rescue, and there was only one intermediate general and several junior generals following Changtian.

Seeing that their lord was in danger, these generals immediately rushed up to resist the village master, and then shouted to Changtian: "Lord, go away!" ”

The generals under Changtian's command are not incompetent characters, although a single person is far from being the opponent of the village master, but at this time, several people together also suppressed the village master.

Therefore, Changtian finally escaped and continued to lead the team to retreat.

I have to say that the role of high-level elites on the battlefield is extremely significant. The large number of cottages ambushed in the woods by those bandit kings are almost all first- and second-order soldiers, and there are few third-order soldiers.

And the soldiers and horses that Changtian brought out to lure the enemy were all third-order soldiers, and the fourth-order, fifth-order, and low-level were all arranged by him to Sun Dali as ambush soldiers.

After all, low-level soldiers can only fight with the wind, and it is a bit difficult to let them fight desperately against the trend. Therefore, it is most appropriate to let high-level soldiers ambush the enemy with low-level soldiers, and rob and kill on the road.

Changtian retreated in an orderly manner with the team, and Li Ran also caught up from behind, and the bandits behind him didn't dare to force too much because they were a little afraid of Li Ran's martial arts, so they just followed the team closely.

Li Ran came to the place where several junior generals were fighting with the owner of the village, and when he saw the owner of the village who was being suppressed, he did not hesitate at all, rushed up with the Yanling gun, and directly raised the gun to stab at the owner of the village.

Seeing this, Li Ran didn't wait for the owner of the village to stabilize his body, and directly raised the Yanling gun and smashed it on the head of the owner of the village, and the owner of the village struggled to raise the weapon in his hand to hold Li Ran's shot, but there was a loud bang, and the horse of the owner of the village couldn't withstand Li Ran's strength at all, and was directly smashed to the ground.

The owner of the village hurriedly ran to the side, and the other bandits also rushed up to protect him tightly.

Li Ran saw that there was no chance to kill, so he didn't continue to entangle, and immediately took a few generals to rush towards Changtian.

After Li Ran left, the frightened owner of the village finally relieved himself, and at this time, the team of bandits had already chased Changtian and them to the owner of the village.

"Second master, what should I do, do you want to chase it?" A small leader asked

"Chase! How can I let go of such a great opportunity, let me catch up and kill! Kill them all, and you will get them all! The owner of the village, who was obviously in a good situation but almost lost his life, was obviously angry and ordered all the bandits to chase after him.

The soldiers of Changtian, after being ambushed and fighting in an unfavorable situation, were extremely physically exhausted, and the speed at this time was not fast, and he led the soldiers to run towards a forest.

"Chase! Kill them all! The second village master shouted loudly from behind.

Changtian led the team to run through the woods first, and the bandits chased after him.

As the bandits passed by the woods, suddenly a loud shout came from the woods: "Shoot the arrows!" ”

The bandits were not as well-trained as the soldiers of Changtian, and they were immediately at a loss when they encountered an ambush, and they began to scatter and flee for their lives.

Seeing this, Changtian immediately turned his horse's head: "The thieves are in chaos, kill!"

Sun Dali also led the 1,000 men and horses to kill the bandits from the side.

"Don't panic, there are few of them! No escape! All deserters were put to death! The two village masters were in a hurry, and immediately killed a few bandits who turned around and fled.

The thieves who were suppressed by the owner of the second village did not dare to run anymore, but desperately killed them in Changtian.

For a while, there were screams everywhere, blood splattered, and it was like hell on earth.

And the advantage is naturally the soldiers on Changtian's side.

The master of the second village sat high, so he could see it more clearly, and he only saw him with a hideous gaze, pointing at Changtian and shouting: "Shoot that stranger!! ”

In an instant, all the bandit archers shot arrows towards Changtian.

Changtian had no room to dodge at all, the people under his command were all killing enemies far away from him, and they couldn't catch up with him at all, only a few fifth-order soldiers with shields protected Changtian, and Changtian could only watch the dense pruning shoot towards him.

Those fifth-order soldiers, regardless of their own safety, all held shields in front of Changtian, almost surrounded Changtian impenetrable, but there were too many prunings, and they couldn't prevent Changtian who was riding a horse in front of them, and Changtian was pierced into a hedgehog in an instant, but those fifth-order soldiers were only slightly injured.

Changtian, who was riding on the horse, disappeared in an instant, and then the contents of the package exploded to the ground.

After Da Hei saw what Changtian exploded, his eyes suddenly cracked!
