Chapter 15 A group of soldiers and bandits, a nest of snakes and rats

Thanks to the book friend "shy de little demon" for the reward.

******

The men sent by An Hong soon reported that there was an unknown Shili in the vicinity, and it was preliminarily determined that they were hostile to the caravan, and they were definitely not unrelated passers-by.

Gao Xu's optional mission is there, even if you don't need to investigate, there must be enemies around to ambush, An Hong's actions are just predicting in advance, turning passive into active, and the result is still the same: a big battle.

After learning the reliable news, An Hong hesitated for a moment, and then asked Zeyue and Gao Xu to come over and tell him about the matter, but Zeyue was first surprised and then delighted, and hugged his fists and said: "Uncle Hong has orders, and the little nephew will obey them, this time he will call this group of thieves, and he can't come or go!" ”

Gao Xu also echoed on the surface, but thought in his heart: "I just don't know if the two waves of offensives are still coming in the original order?" Or is it a wave? If it's the latter, I'm afraid I'll have to abandon the optional mission......"

Since the main quest and the optional quest are separated, there is a big difference in difficulty, and the normal process should be like this: the caravan of the Longyou Gang is attacked first, but the enemy is not strong, and the Anlong caravan will stand by and watch, whether it can ensure that the goods are not lost, and Zeyue is safe and sound, it depends on the ability of the reincarnation.

After the plot of the main quest is over, the reincarnator can also choose to stay for 24 hours, at which time it is estimated that the Longyou Gang and the Anlong caravan will part ways due to the previous conflict, and if the reincarnator wants to complete the optional mission, he can find an excuse to follow the Anlong caravan and deal with the second wave of attacks.

According to the hints of the optional missions, the enemies of the Anlong caravan are undoubtedly much stronger than those of the Longyou Gang, so the second task is also protection, Zeyue needs to keep it from being injured, and An Hong as long as he does not lose his life, the gap can be imagined!

If the two waves of attacks are still one after the other, but the time is advanced, the guarded caravan will be more comfortable to deal with, that is to say, under Gao Xu's control, the difficulty of the task has been reduced again!

However, Gao Xu, who is familiar with the rules of space, knows in his heart that this situation is unlikely, because the main quest is already D-level, and there is no way to descend.

Since it can't go down, then there is only an upswing, and the intervention of the reincarnation leads to an increase in the difficulty of the plot, which is extremely common, and merging two waves of enemies with different purposes together is really a trivial matter for space.

If the enemy were to rush in, even if the two caravans worked together, it would be a bitter battle, and it would be almost impossible to keep all the goods intact.

For the sake of speed, Gao Xu used a quick knife to cut through the mess, and the corresponding preparations for the rest of the aspects were seriously insufficient, so in the case that the two could not be taken into account, he must first focus on the goods of the Longyou Gang. After all, the failure of the main quest will not only deduct points, but also lead to a decrease in the clearance evaluation, and the loss is great, and the optional quest can be successful, and if it can't be done, as long as An Hong's life is saved, it will be a victory.

But it turns out that Gao Xu thought a little simple this time.

He did not expect that the two waves of enemies attacking the caravan would combine to form a complementary situation, and the result would be: one plus one is far greater than two.

After discovering the enemy's traces, Zeyue once proposed to rush overnight to find a more favorable terrain to settle down and defend, and wait for the enemy to throw himself into the net, but the old and serious An Hong still decided to stay on guard and recuperate to cope with all changes.

Gao Xu also didn't agree to rush overnight, because it would be easy to be attacked on the way, and it would be more difficult to defend, but the terrain around here was very flat, and there was no natural barrier to use, so Zeyue's idea was not wrong.

Even if the strength of the guards of the Anlong caravan was higher than that of the Longyou Gang, they were really startled, and early the next morning, the warning sound on the periphery resounded in the sky ......... this side,

Enemy, coming!

The wind stirred the loneliness in the mountains and forests, bringing with it the smell of bloody killing.

In the open mountains, a large number of enemies quickly showed their hideous figures, Gao Xu's eyes moved, and his face became solemn, but at this time, An Hong laughed and mocked: "Just mountain bandits, dare to fight our idea?" ”

You can't blame An Hong for underestimating the enemy, it's really that this group of enemies is too badly dressed, some are wearing half a set of armor, some are wearing tattered clothes, and some don't even have shields.

Judging from the appearance alone, although the number of enemies is large, they are a rabble, and there is nothing to be afraid of.

And the ones who rushed to the front row were indeed mountain bandits, their steps were scattered, their eyes were stupid, and their movements were a little stiff, but Gao Xu was keenly aware that the people who followed this wave of mountain bandits were completely different people!

The weapons and equipment have not changed much, tattered, and strange, but their expressions are extremely solemn, a pair of gloomy and cold eyes are looking ahead, and their bodies exude a strong atmosphere of war:

Cold-blooded, cruel, murderous!

Where are these mountain bandits, they are clearly battle-hardened soldiers!

One of the shijie that Gao Xu knew best in his previous life was the swordsman relationship, so he was able to judge the Hundred Slashing Spear in Zhang Yao's hand and many goods sold by Lin Jie just by his appearance.

And in the swordsman relationship, the most distinctive thing is the continuous war between the Song and Jin countries, no matter which side of the camp the reincarnation is on, they can't avoid going into battle to kill the enemy.

In fact, the vast majority of reincarnators are reluctant to face war, because their strength surpasses that of ordinary people, they can look at and kill people on weekdays, but in the frontal battlefield, the role of the individual is very limited. Unless it is really strong enough to have thousands of enemies or ten thousand enemies, it can run rampant, but there is basically no reincarnation of that strength in a difficulty.

However, there are two sides to everything, and over time, many people have found that reincarnators who have experienced the baptism of war, whether they are facing the dilemma of being one enemy or the Jedi of life and death, can cope more easily and calmly. The temptation of this benefit to reincarnation is too great, so the swordsman romance has become a popular shijie in East Asia, and Gao Xu is also a part of it.

Therefore, Gao Xu is extremely sensitive to the breath of war, even if the enemy intends to cover it up, he is absolutely invisible and exposed under his insightful gaze.

"Young helper, the situation is not right, the enemy is deceitful, look at their feet!" In view of this, Gao Xu immediately said to Zeyue, his voice was so loud that even An Hong next to him could hear it clearly.

The leaders of the two caravans subconsciously followed Gao Xu's prompt, and couldn't help but change their faces greatly, because except for the real mountain bandits who were barefoot and shirtless, or wearing tattered straw sandals, the group of soldiers in the rear were all neat and firm fur boots!

Such a flaw, you can tell it at a glance!

However, this is also a helpless thing, after all, these soldiers are not used to rushing and killing in the mountains and forests, if they are barefoot like mountain bandits, their speed will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, which will have a serious impact on Jihua who is chasing the enemy and killing them all.

Of course, they thought that they were mixed in with the mountain bandits, and ordinary people would not observe the difference under their feet at all, and when they rushed into the crowd, even if they noticed, it didn't matter......

This is indeed the case, even if An Hong and Zeyue reacted and immediately ordered the guards to be vigilant and kill the enemy with all their might, it would be too late!

After many of the guards held crossbow arrows and shot the mountain bandits who rushed to the front, they showed a look of relief, thinking that the enemy was just like this, and they were simply vulnerable.

Then they went hand-to-hand with the wolves in sheep's clothing!

A terrible cold light flashed, and the head of one of the guards flew into the air, dancing in the sky with a handful of blood rain that fell on everyone's heads. …,

Kill with one hit!

Many of the guards were stunned, and when they couldn't react at all to what was going on, another waterfall of blood suddenly appeared in the group of guards, and just now this person was still looking at the arrow shooting into the body of the mountain bandit, showing a cruel smile, but he didn't know that the smiling face was already a picture of his life.

The despised mountain bandits in turn put down several people as if they were chopping melons and vegetables, and the guards woke up like a dream and began to resist vigorously.

In fact, these guards are all local experts recruited by the merchants, and they are still above those soldiers in terms of single strength, but when it comes to cooperation, they are too far behind, and because of the carelessness of the enemy, they lost the opportunity and retreated, which is not a strange thing.

An Hong and Ze Yue looked at all this with miserable faces, and their hands and feet trembled a little, they had not encountered robberies before, but it was the first time that a soldier turned into a mountain bandit, and the difference in combat effectiveness between the two was too big!

"Jianghuai Army! They are the JAC Army! At this moment, Gao Xu suddenly shouted, "Could it be that Du Fuwei is going to attack us?" ”

"This doesn't make sense, the Shili of the Jianghuai Army can't reach here at all, why did Du Fuwei do this?" Zeyue was even more startled and shook his head.

An Hong's eyes narrowed, revealing a gloomy color, and muttered: "It's not Du Fuwei, it's not Du Fuwei, it's ...... Hum! ”

"It's An Long's junior brother, the number two person in the Jianghuai Army, Fu Gongyou, right? Hey, this person really knows about the festival between Fu Gongyou and An Long, and it is likely that he is also a member of the Tianlian Sect, a good chess piece, and he can't waste it! After Gao Xu's temptation was completed, he didn't talk nonsense, pulled out the Feihong Sword, and threw himself into the battle.

When he joined, the situation suddenly changed.
