Chapter 12. I killed one with my own hands
Zhou Jinru wanted to ask if you were born by your father, so in order to maintain his cold image, he had to swallow the words that came to his mouth back into his stomach.
But Talat continued: "I know my father doesn't like me, and since my sister was born, his attitude towards me has been much colder, and over time, when he sees me, there is more disgust in his eyes. ”
The young Pasha did not shy away from it, as if he was talking about something commonplace.
"Maybe it's because the father's love isn't obvious enough."
"Alright, Mr. Four, you don't need to comfort me, he wants me to die, otherwise, I wouldn't have been almost killed by the assassin sent by the royal chieftain."
Talat punched hard in the center of the map, his fist pressing down on the Oasis, and with just over a hundred guards, he had to face a powerful horse bandit.
"But there is also good news for us, these horse bandits are not a complete organization, they are four horse bandits united, there may be a chance."
Zhou Jinru didn't know much about this, and he guessed: "From neighboring countries? ”
Talat's face was cloudy, and he nodded slowly: "Behind the two horse bandits are Gaul and Victoria, respectively, and the remaining horse bandits are controlled by Maren Pasha, and the other horse bandit is unknown for the time being." ”
At this time, Gaul had not yet been destroyed by Victoria, and there was a constant struggle between the two, and Marenpasha was purely for profit, and as for the last horse bandits, Zhou Jinru could not guess its true purpose.
Clearly, these people have made the Sargon Wilderness their backyard, and the wealth generated by the mere plundering of the population is enough to drive people crazy.
"I have to warn you that the royal chief behind us is probably gathering his troops and killing us as horse bandits."
"How dare he?!"
Talat exclaimed.
Zhou Jinru nodded: "Of course he dares, he has offended you, and you have a bright future, if he succeeded in killing you late last night, of course it would be a hundred, it's a pity, no."
He will spend the rest of his life in fear, so in order to sleep soundly for the rest of his life, he will kill you ruthlessly, even if he is scolded by your father afterwards, well, as we all know, your father does not like you, so he will get a verbal warning at most, and he can sit back and relax in the future. ”
"You!"
Talat's face changed, and he sighed, "What are you telling me this for?" ”
Zhou Jinru's low laughter came from under the mask: "It's still too late for you to prepare, Talat Pasha, even if it's such a dangerous territory, you are on the road, you can see that you don't want to live in the shadow of your father, the sea and the sky, the eagle flies and the fish dives, why don't you prove yourself?" ”
The young Pasha was silent for a long time, and then ran out of the tent without saying a word, and not long after, the sound of horses neighing was heard in the camp, and several horses galloped away.
When Zhou Jinru walked out of the tent, at the end of the clear blue sky, an eagle spread its wings and disappeared into the distance.
"The Great Pasha ......"
He muttered the title and returned to his tent under the awe-struck gaze of his lords.
There was no electricity or power generation here, and Talat was told that only in his father's palace there was a generator, and even some wealthy princes could only endure the darkness.
Zhou Jinru stared at his right hand, the device carried in the prosthetic limb had long been out of power, and he couldn't find a place to charge it, so he couldn't count on Mingyuexin at all.
Luckily, it's summer, and the daylight is long, so it still provides plenty of light.
He rested in his tent and meditated with his eyes closed.
Half an hour later, the whole camp was boiling, as if something big had happened.
"Mr. Four!"
A strong arm pulled the tent open from the outside, and the captain of the camp guard barely squeezed into half of his body, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Four, Lord Pasha is looking for you!" ”
Zhou Jinru opened his eyes and saw Kamp's honest face, thinking that the captain of the guard was too wooden, so he was sent to escort Talat, presumably the young Pasha knew it.
He said, "What's wrong?" ”
"When Lord Pasha went out to make his rounds, he found that there was a team without flags behind us that was catching up, menacing!"
It seems that yesterday's royal chief couldn't hold back at all, and sent people to chase and kill him so quickly, or in the daytime, maybe he thought that Talat's more than 100 guards were a vulnerable rabble, after all, there were still 800 lords, and the panicked lords would reverse and scatter their own fronts.
"I see."
Zhou Jinru got up and walked out of the tent, just in time to see Talat who was dressed in military uniform, walking with his right hand on the scimitar on his waist, and the handsome young man also became heroic
"Mr. Four, there are indeed enemies in our rear."
From the young Pasha's behavior, it can be seen that he intends to resist to the end.
Zhou Jinru asked, "How far is it?" ”
"Less than five kilometers."
"It's close, how many cavalry are there?"
"More than 100 people visually."
Zhou Jinru shook his head: "There are not so many, a royal chief can't afford to raise hundreds of cavalry, at most fifty, and the rest are servants, immediately dismantle the carriage and form a circle to prevent the cavalry from impacting." ”
Speaking time, the straight-line distance should be less than four kilometers, so close, it is too late to dig a trench, and the best choice is to put a car formation.
He said seriously: "You are the Pasha, and the people here are your people, and you have an obligation to keep them safe. ”
"The people?"
"With their support, you are the real Pasha."
Talat chewed on the word, maybe it was too early for him, but Zhou Jinru didn't care, he was a surgeon, so he would naturally stand where he should stand.
With the goal in place, the wagons in the camp were quickly dismantled and hauled around, forming a barrier to the past.
They did not refuse their horses, and to resist the onslaught of the cavalry, they had to use the most stupid methods.
Even with only fifty cavalrymen, a collective charge would have a devastating effect.
Zhou Jinru called out to Kemp and whispered a few words in the ear of the captain of the guard, and the honest man ran away quickly with an excited expression on his face.
In the blink of an eye, a crowd of black oppressors appeared at the end of the horizon, and the cavalry wearing armor and riding on horseback walked slowly, not many in number, but the sound was terrifying.
Talat's face turned pale, he counted the number of people with a telescope, and muttered: "Forty-two cavalry, and the infantry following behind are four or five hundred, can we really win?" ”
There were only twelve people in his escort who could really be called cavalry, including the captain of the camp guard, and the rest were out-and-out light infantry, and they had no strength to resist cavalry at all.
I just hope that these carriages will serve to stop the impact!
When the enemy appeared in the field of vision, the lords who were surrounded in the middle still couldn't help but panic, and after a short commotion, they slowly calmed down, and many people could only see the tall back of their young lord, and felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.
The cavalry began to urge the horses under them, entering the rhythm of the charge, and the horses' hooves trampled the ground, even if there were only more than forty cavalrymen, it was enough to rush out of the momentum of thousands of troops!
It's close! It's closer!
Talat tightened his grip on the scimitar, a drop of sweat dripping from the corner of his forehead.
If he can't solve these pursuers, even if he really reaches the Oasis territory, nothing good will come out, and he might as well die here!
A rush of blood rushed to his heart, and his whole body was trembling slightly, it was a tremor of excitement!
"Kill!"
The cavalrymen exhaled the terrible Sargon language, raised their weapons high, and rushed to the target position.
These people's temporary car formation is full of loopholes, not only does it have the effect of rejecting horses, but also reveals a lot of flaws.
With hideous expressions, the cavalry avoided the carriage directly in front of them and rushed towards the wide gap, and they could already foresee the image of sharp weapons cutting off human heads!
"Up!"
At the last moment, Camp suddenly appeared and roared, only to see dozens of horse workshops, four thick ropes were pulled up by the male leaders hidden on both sides, and the cavalry who was caught off guard rushed up, and the war horse under him hurriedly jumped over the first rope, unable to stop the inertia, tripped by the ropes behind, and even the men and horses fell heavily in the dust.
Because the rope and the wheels of the carriage were hung together, after tripping the cavalry, the huge impact pulled the carriage on both sides, and the front of the carriage collided together, blocking the cavalry behind, and for a time the people turned on their backs and became a mess.
Most of the cavalry charges were dissolved in the chariot formations and tripwires, and a few cavalry managed to break through the defensive line, but they were quickly cut down by the light infantry who swarmed them.
But this is only the beginning, there are four or five hundred infantry behind, and the real test is coming.
Talat squinted his eyes and pulled out his scimitar hanging from his waist, and several of the guards behind him raised their weapons in unison, at least they looked good.
"Kill them all!"
The young Pasha roared angrily, and took the lead, rushing towards the enemy who had already pounced on the edge of the formation.
Where did the captain of the camp guard dare to be careless, he hurriedly rushed over, blocking most of the attacks with his huge body, his strength was amazing, holding a log with both hands, knocking down several enemies in a row, especially the front end of the log was still dripping blood, which was quite terrifying.
The imaginary situation in which the cavalry charge broke up and the infantry followed closely behind did not happen, but on the contrary, the cavalry charge failed, the enemy put up desperate resistance, and the battle fell into a stalemate, and the attackers, who were already not strong in battle, began to falter.
Talat held on to an enemy's weapon with great force, shaking his arms numb, where had he experienced this, his eyes turned black after exerting too much force, his breath was burning, and his chest hurt even more, the young Pasha gritted his teeth, slammed it with his shoulder, and slashed it with his backhand, and the enemy who was caught off guard was slashed in the neck by him, gurgling blood flowed out, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground.
Suddenly there were no enemies around, and there were bursts of cheers in his ears, and the young man who had lost his strength sat on the ground and gasped: "We won? ”
"Win! Lord Pasha, we have won! Less is more! Win! ”
Kemp threw the log and shouted loudly.
His cries were contagious to the protected people, and the waves of cries overwhelmed all, and the victorious people watched the fleeing enemies leave.
A pair of strong hands held Talat's shoulders and handed over a small bowl of potion, and the masked man chuckled, "Drink it, you will feel better." ”
"Mr. Four, I won! I killed one with my own hands! ”
"Yes, you won, not only did you win this battle, but you also won the hearts of those people behind you, congratulations."
In fact, with Talat's strength and skill, he couldn't defeat that ruthless enemy, and the camp next to him didn't have time to support, Zhou Jinru couldn't see that the young Pasha was so dead, and he couldn't even be injured, so he secretly assisted with mental shock, and after the enemy who had no resistance was stunned, he created an opportunity to kill.
Not only does Talat need to grow, but the panicked lords also need a strong lord, and when they see a teenager, they will inevitably have feelings of distrust, coupled with several attacks, the mood to flee is high, and it would be good to have half of them left when they reach the Oasis territory.
Zhou Jinru can stabilize his emotions once, but what about the second and third time? Emotional guidance is only an auxiliary, and what really needs to be cohesive is people's hearts.
After the battle, Talat breathed a sigh of relief and listened to Camp report the situation in his tent.
"Lord Pasha, we have lost two warriors and wounded thirty-four, of whom eleven have been seriously wounded and twenty-two have been lightly wounded, and in this battle we have killed a total of thirty-two enemies, and we have also taken one hundred and one prisoners, and captured the war horses......
When Camp finished speaking, he noticed that Talat was distracted, and the latter also realized his gaffe: "I'm distracted, please say it again." ”
"My lord, the important thing is that we have won a victory, and everyone is talking about your name and saying that you will definitely become a great Pasha!"
"I know, Kamp, that of course I will be the great Pasha, and that today we will rest in place, and tomorrow we will have guests."
"Yes."
Camp was about to leave when Talat stopped him again: "What about the captives? ”
"Mr. Four is treating the injuries of the wounded among them, and he said that these are your property, and the death of one is a major loss."
"Well, he's right, but there's something more important now, take me to the captives at once!"
Talat jumped out of his chair, still a little limp, and he couldn't take a break because something had to be done immediately.
At this time, Zhou Jinru was bandaging the wounds of a wounded prisoner, and after cleaning the wounds, he saw the young Pasha coming over.
"I'm going to interrogate them, Mr. Four is a surgeon, do you know how to interrogate?"
Zhou Jinru chuckled: "Sometimes surgeons know how to tell the truth better. ”
"Very well, let's get started now."
Camp brought a chair for Talat and stood next to him.
Zhou Jinru looked at the dejected captives, but asked, "What kind of result do you want?" ”
"I don't want anyone to talk, and I don't want black sheep."
"It's simple."
Zhou Jinru amplified the volume: "There are human traffickers, there are people who rob tribes, and there are people who insult women, stand up yourself, and you can be let live." ”
The doctor, who had treated many of the wounded, did not seem to be as good at talking as he seemed, and many of the captives could not help but shrink their necks.
