Cheng Xiao, who was calm and cautious, quickly counted his own casualties. Covered in blood and with a solemn face, he stepped forward and said to Lei Qing: "Major General, our army has seven dead, thirty seriously wounded, and more than sixty medium and light wounded, most of which are concentrated in recruits. For the seriously injured, we are doing our best to treat them and hope that they will survive. ”

When Lei Qing heard this, his face was also a little gloomy, he was originally extremely reluctant to put new recruits into the battlefield. However, if there is no such group of recruits to participate in the battle to intercept the ambush. With those ironclad cavalry alone, it is impossible to close to completely annihilating the enemy.

This is a group of horse thieves, if you can't annihilate them, you will have to have fun by stationing yourself in Yehe Town in the future. Just playing guerrilla harassment can make you tired.

Fortunately, now we have paid some price and completely solved this wave of horse thieves. The only regret is that Helian Bo, the culprit, escaped.

However, Helian Bo fled, and it was impossible to organize a decent counterattack for a while. Just have to wait for himself to gain a firm foothold in Yehe Town and train the army to maturity, Helian Bo will be insignificant.

His eyes were a little solemn and he said, "Brother Cheng Xiao, I have worked hard for you this time." ”

"It doesn't matter, but the young general has worked hard and has taken on the strategy of luring the enemy. He also fought against Helian Bo, causing him to flee with heavy losses. Otherwise, our casualties this time will be several times greater. Cheng Xiao also stretched his brows, and there was more admiration in his expression: "In this battle, we have won a wonderful battle." The major general is mighty and resourceful, and Cheng Xiao admires him. "Among the army, the most respectful and brave. But I also admire those who can use their strategies to defeat the enemy. In the battle just now, Cheng Xiao already regarded Lei Qing as a wise general, and he sincerely felt respectful.

As for the losses, they are now very small, and there are no immortals in a war. In some tragic battlefields, not to mention recruits, even silver-level and gold-level strong generals have the possibility of falling. Even, in history, there have been many, many Saint-rank powerhouses who have died on the battlefield.

"Where, it is the brothers who bravely kill the enemy to have such results. Lei Qing himself did not take credit, but became humble.

In this way, Cheng Xiao was so grateful. His surname is calm, and what he is most afraid of is the kind of general who has just made some achievements and begins to his tail, thinking that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, it is simply a nightmare for his brothers, and sooner or later he will send his loyal brothers to hell.

"Xian Yu Leopard, I transported the bodies of my brothers to Yehe Town, and I personally presided over the cremation ceremony, and then sent the ashes back to their hometown for burial. All kinds of pensions must not be disadvantaged. If there are elderly people and children in the family, more pensions should be given, and more help should be given to those in difficulty. Lei Qing's voice was solemn and serious, and there was a faint sadness: "The brothers trust me and are willing to follow me to fight the world and make contributions together, we can't treat the brothers badly." ”

Xian Yubao was also infected by Lei Qing, and said heavily: "Young General, please rest assured, just leave this matter to your subordinates, and there will never be a little difference." ”

Lei Qing's words made many people nearby listen to them, and they quietly spread out, earning him some loyalty. With a boss who is brave and good at fighting and loves soldiers like a son, it is the wish of every soldier.

After tidying up the battlefield, the army rested for a while and then rushed to the village of Ulla. Before he got out of the mouth of the canyon, he saw a group of hundreds of sturdy young men, armed with blades, and only a few people with horses, almost rushing to the mouth of the canyon on foot.

As soon as they saw that the war was over, and that Lei Qing's army was full of captives and harvested heads, the villagers of Ula Village were stunned and cheered.

"I don't know which way your army is? The villain is Wu Ji from Ula Village, meet Your Excellency the General, thank you Your Excellency the General for coming to the rescue. "Led by a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old man, who seems to be a good man. After getting off the horse, Yaoyao, who was full of excitement, bowed respectfully to Lei Qing, who was covered in blood.

"We are the Black Flag Regiment that was ordered to come to defend Yehe Town. Xian Yu Leopard rode away, pointed at Lei Qing with a proud face and said, "This is our regimental lord, Major General Lei Qing." He was the one who single-handedly led away the horse thieves besieging your village of Ulla. Now that the horse thieves have been wiped out by us, rest assured. ”

Wu Ji was surprised and delighted, and hated to look at the dozens of horse thieves who were captured, but when he saw the heads of the horse thieves hanging on the horses. This Wu Ji couldn't help crying, and knelt down directly to Lei Qing: "Thank you General Lei for saving our Ula Village, and thank you General Lei for avenging the dead people in our Ula Village." ”

The rest of the hundreds of strong people, also under the leadership of Wu Ji, also hurriedly knelt down in unison: "Thank you General Lei for saving me." ”

Their respect and gratitude, Lei Qing can also understand. Indeed, if he hadn't happened to pass by this time, most of the village of Ula would have been slaughtered. It's just that Lei Qing doesn't know why, the Seventh Iron Cavalry Regiment stationed in Yehe Town hasn't come so far?

As soon as he saw this group of sturdy young people, Lei Qing was a little tempted to take them under his command. This Ula village is really worthy of being a big village, and there are so many young and middle-aged people.

Immediately, Lei Qing also turned over and dismounted, took the initiative to help Wu Ji, and said with a smile: "The duty is incumbent." The men have gold under their knees, so get up, brothers. ”

A group of people, after thanking them again, got up one after another.

"Come, take the captured horses and give them to the brothers. Let's take a look at Ula Village, what can we do to help?" Lei Qing looked at the villagers of Ula Village, most of them were quite strong, and their spirit was also good, among the more than 100 people, there was actually a bronze level and ten black iron levels. The rest of them are also exuding a spirit of fierceness.

Obviously, because Wula Village is close to the border of the grassland, it pays more attention to martial arts cultivation and is more united than the slightly inland villages. Only then can we survive under the nuisance of horse thieves.

In this battle, Lei Qing was brave and strategic, and led his brothers to a big victory, and he had initially established his majesty in the entire Black Flag Regiment. Even some borrowed generals admired Lei Qing.

Soon, his orders were carried out, and a large number of captured war horses were distributed to everyone. In this frontier land, although there is a shortage of horses, most of them can ride.

With horses, it is much faster to go to the village of Ulla. Of course, it is necessary to set aside a part of the men and horses to walk slowly with the wounded. Let Xian Yubao and Cheng Xiao preside over the overall situation.

Lei Qing, on the other hand, led one hundred and fifty ironclad cavalry and more than 100 villagers to the outside of Ula Village at a gallop.

The fire has been extinguished. But the entire village of Ula is still smoky and chaotic. But as soon as he heard that the horse thieves had all been exterminated, and that there were a large number of horse thieves to testify, the village of Ula suddenly boiled.

The old village chief, with the support of others, personally came to meet the major general Lei Qing.

Lei Qing greeted him politely, sent someone to help clean up the mess in the village, and accepted the invitation to set up camp outside Ula Village tonight.

In the evening, the villagers of Wula Village, who were grateful to Lei Qing, spontaneously organized a feast to reward the army. In this regard, Lei Qing did not shirk it, Wula Village is quite wealthy, and it is also very beneficial to hold a feast for the rest of the military and civilian families after the disaster.

After a feast, the brothers in Lei Qing's army were very familiar with the villagers of Ula Village, drinking and chatting, and playing wrestling and fighting. There were also many girls who went to the tent that night to dedicate themselves.

It's not uncommon to be on the verge of grasslands and open customs.

Only Lei Qing felt a little headache, he was handsome, a general, outstanding in martial arts, and a great benefactor in Ula Village. At the feast, he was frequently toasted, and in the middle of the night, I don't know how many girls touched his tent to dedicate themselves.

provoked Lei Qing to leave his empty tent and ran to the next door and squeezed Zuo Qianqian for a night.

Early in the morning of the second day, Lei Qing set up a recruiting platform to recruit people. In the case that the two sides are like glue, there are many responders, and the followers are like clouds.

However, Lei Qing did not open up his privileges because of the familiarity between the two sides. Instead, it still implements its own relatively strict recruitment system. Lei Qing has always adhered to the principle of preferring shortage to abundance.

But even so, Lei Qing recruited seventy-three people in Ula Village. Among them, there are twelve black iron ranks, and one bronze primary rank.

In the final analysis, Lei Qing was the first time he had recruited a bronze-level powerhouse, that is, that Wu Ji. Wu Ji was also grateful for the help of the Black Flag Army, and felt that following Lei Qing was a very promising thing, so he joined the Black Flag Army without hesitation.

As a result, Lei Qing's Black Flag Army has reached more than 300 people, and the momentum is huge.

Just as Lei Qing was about to set up camp and go directly to Yehe Town, the scouts patrolling outside came to spread the word that the Seventh Iron Cavalry Regiment was coming.

As soon as he heard this Iron Cavalry Seventh Regiment, Lei Qing's brows furrowed, now that the two sides have not changed their guards, the Iron Cavalry Seventh Regiment should keep the peace of this side. But why did such a big thing happen and arrive in the afternoon of the second day?

In a few moments, more than two hundred horsemen and horses galloped like a torrent, raising high dust from behind.

This wave of cavalry stopped in front of Lei Qing's camp. led the few, rushed to Lei Qing non-stop, and at the front was an ironclad man, in his thirties, like a black iron tower.

Although Lei Qing had never met him, he also knew that this person was the head of the Seventh Regiment of the Iron Cavalry, and the black-faced killing god Jiang Kongsheng. is good at using a giant axe, and he is also the number one person in the northwest realm.

Jiang Kongsheng seemed to be a little ashamed, and as soon as he saw Lei Qing, he hurriedly surrendered his hand and said: "This is Major General Lei Qing, Brother Lei, right? I am Jiang Kongsheng, the commander of the Seventh Regiment. Nearly destroyed the village of Ulla. Fortunately, the major general intervened and saved the village of Ula. Jiang is really grateful. ”
