"Seventh Master, the brothers are ready, this time we have to do a big deal," a middle-aged man with a beard on his face and beard leaned in front of Ling Qi and said.

"Okay, we're going to kill this time," Ling Qi looked at the people behind him, the 25o people who came in this time all obeyed his command according to Ling Chen's prior orders.

After entering this time, his identity is no longer an ordinary cavalry on the battlefield, but a group of horse bandits close to the grassland.

Ling Chen and the other 249 people are all horse bandits.

Of course, the so-called horse bandits are not the kind of people who kidnap their families, they also have an identity, that is, horse gangs, escorting those caravans in and out of the grassland, and at the same time charging a protection fee.

Their purpose in banditry was not just to plunder goods, but in fact to declare their right to protect the trade route, including the caravans that walked on the trade route without paying tribute to them. Of course, it also includes teaching some small tribes who are not open-minded, knowing that the caravan pays tribute to them, and also goes to the steppe tribes that plunder.

The caravan had no way to take these tribes who had no fixed residence, they were very familiar with them as local horse bandits, although the nomadic tribes were nomadic everywhere, they could still find out the law, that is, they lived in pursuit of water and grass, along the water source, the rivers and lakes on the grassland, those places with abundant water and grass, to search, and always found those tribes.

Ling Qi looked back and saw that there were more than 300 sturdy horse bandits, 249 clones who entered with him, and more than 50 of them, all of whom were locals. However, they didn't seem to suspect the identity of Ling Chen and the others.

Before coming in, Ling Qi got the instruction, his task was to find out the camp background task of the camp first, unlike other rich people, Ling Chen had carried out many such tasks in his previous life, but Ling Chen did not get the system prompt, he generally completed the task, and it also belonged to the auxiliary role, and the leader said that the task was completed, that is, the task was completed, and he himself did not get a clear prompt.

…………

With the cry in his ears, a battle ended, Ling Qi looked at the companions who followed behind, there were already two missing, they were not unskilled or brave enough, one was killed by a stray arrow, and the other was a horse that lost its front hooves. No matter how elite a soldier is, without special protection, in this kind of frontal combat, he will die in vain for inexplicable reasons.

But the results were also very fruitful, a small tribe that had always come to harass and plunder their trade routes was uprooted, all adult men were killed, and women and children were bound and taken away to be sold as slaves for the next caravan that came here.

And he doesn't have a clue how to search for the faction mission, he is now a horse bandit, can he build a horse gang that crisscrosses the grassland?

But apparently soon he didn't have to think about it, and a month after the slaughter of the tribe, his horse gang was hunted down by a cavalry general with an official position called Zuo Gu Duhou, with 6,000 men.

Fortunately, they had already done sufficient scout work, detected this situation in advance, and quickly pulled out their horses and evacuated, with six horses per person, carrying only soft and clean dry food, as well as weapons.

However, what made Ling Qi puzzled was that when they fought and retreated, and there were no casualties, when they retreated to a riverbank, there was a sudden violent wind and rain, the temperature plummeted, and all the horses did not escape, and a few days later, they died of frost.

…………

"The Great Wizard has prayed for the protection of the Immortal Heaven to trap these slaughterers of my people here, warriors, kill them all," shouted Hou Chepu, who was riding on a black horse.

Behind him, thousands of cavalry shouted together, and then rushed forward.

It took three days of fierce fighting to kill all the horse bandits who could not continue to escape, and none of them surrendered and broke through.

"Could it be that these are evil ghosts from hell, so strong" Che Pu looked at the bloody battlefield, although he had experienced a hundred battles, but it was the first time to see such an elite, only two or three hundred people, but he shot more than a thousand of him, if he was not a rough strategy, in the case of a hard attack, he remembered the tactics of the southerners, drove a large number of horses from the outside to rush into the formation, consumed the opponent's arrows, disrupted the opponent's formation, he could not win at all.

The cavalry, which was originally very demoralized, was also depressed, and the other party was the real warrior, in contrast, they were the same as those cowardly southerners, and they could not beat the other party at all in a head-on fight, and they could only rely on tricks to win.

…………

In the private manor, everyone was anxiously waiting for news, Ling Qi and they had been in for more than a month, and these people had also been waiting anxiously for more than a month.

Unlike others, Wang Hao can know the situation in the world behind him, and he has system prompts.

On this day, when Ling Qi's entire army was annihilated, he got a system prompt, "The mission of the battle 'Confrontation between Farming Civilization and Nomadic Civilization' camp failed, note that the explorer has opened this scene twice in a row, if the task fails to open the scene again, the scene will be permanently closed to you, you cannot enter, your explorer qualification will be cancelled, and you will not be able to continue to open the door to civilization."

Damn, Wang Hao, who got this hint, was furious, he had never had the experience of two consecutive failures before, so he didn't know this hidden information, it turned out that a campaign mission could only be tried three times at most.

No matter who enters, the faction mission is counted on the head of the person who opened it, and he knows this, but he knows it for the first time due to the three campaign mission attempt restrictions.

"Your people are all dead, and the faction mission has failed," Wang Hao summoned everyone, including Ling Chen, and shouted angrily.

"How did you know that?" Ling Chen asked, he was keenly aware of this, the other party must have some kind of means to communicate with the world behind the door.

"You don't have to worry about this, and you don't expect to send people in to explore again, next time either you go with me, or you will never think about entering" Wang Hao let out the last threat.

"You're threatening us?" Zhao Jingru, a woman, has already seen that Wang Hao's love is unstable.

"That's right, it's a threat to you, what's wrong? I won't give you two more opportunities to explore, and don't use those cannon fodder to make up the numbers, as I said, people who have not cultivated, after entering, they don't expect to complete the task at all, even if they are elite in the real world, it is useless" Wang Hao was angry.

(Strange, why did he repeatedly emphasize that people who have cultivated should enter, I remember that in my previous life, although I had cultivated, but after entering, I only had an additional high-level identity, such as being a staff member and military advisor as soon as I entered, but there was nothing too special, this role alone did not seem to be enough to play a decisive role) Ling Chen thought in his heart, Wang Hao's angry expression, he saw it all in his eyes, the other party was already in chaos, obviously this is the best time to get more information.
