Freshly clothed and angry horses, iron-clad Changge, in the morning light, Qin Nan grabbed Song Jianyi and led the way in mid-air, and below was the Weilong Army in the fierce gallop.

In the morning, the group completely left Zhongzhou and entered the Ezhou area. The seven provinces of Ezhou, located in the south of the Yamato Kingdom, belong to the borderlands. Among the seven provinces of Ezhou, Qingyang Province was the governor of Qingyang Province.

However, Qingyang Province is the poorest of the seven provinces in Ezhou, and its geographical conditions are also the worst. Of course, it was precisely because Lu Feng was calculated by his opponent that he was sent to that place.

However, Qin Nan and the others don't need to cross the entire Ezhou, they just pass by there, and after Ezhou is the Southwest Prefecture, the five provinces of the Southwest Prefecture, and the last province near the South China Sea is the province where the Five Emperors Mountain is located, and the name of that province is called the Five Emperors Province.

The sun was on the top of the day, and it was the hottest time of the day, and the Guardian Dragon Legion had just crossed a provincial border and was about to enter the second provincial border.

Qin Nan gave an order, planning to rest in the next city, eat lunch, and feed the horse by the way.

At this time, the Weilong Legion shuttled among a group of mountains, the mountains in this area belong to the junction of the two provinces, although I don't know what the mountain is called, but it seems that the mountain is also quite magnificent, at least for the local area, it is a very famous mountain.

However, it is precisely because of the junction of the two provinces that it is difficult for the rule of law on both sides to be implemented here, making it easy for bandits to breed in this kind of place.

However, the Dragon Guard Legion led by Qin Nan did not have to be afraid of any bandits at all, and any bandits were useless in their eyes

At this time, more than 20 miles away from Qin Nan and the others, it was still deep in the mountains.

A horse-drawn carriage was "chirping" forward, and the wheels of the carriage made a rhythmic sound. Behind the carriage, there were four or five guards who looked like mercenaries, walking slowly with the carriage, all of them sweating on their faces.

At this moment, a sharp arrow shot from the mountain not far away, and with a "grab" sound, it was firmly inserted into the tree next to it.

The horse pulling the cart suddenly raised its forelimbs, let out a "purring" roar from its mouth, and snorted, indicating that there was a crisis.

The groom hurriedly grabbed the reins of the horse, lest the horse go berserk and cause trouble.

At this moment, there was a roar from the distant mountain, and a group of bandits screamed and rushed down the hillside.

"The bandits are coming. ”

The groom in the car screamed, looking very panicked.

The four or five guards behind the carriage also showed panicked expressions, they had long known that bandits were rampant in this area, but they didn't expect to be bumped into by themselves and others.

Whoa

The bandits shouted and rushed excitedly, and soon besieged the carriage.

"I opened this mountain, I planted this road, and I want to pass by from here, leaving to buy road money. ”

Among the thieves, a tall man walked out, carrying a big knife, and he was holding a hunting dog in his hand, looking proud, fearless, and clearly wanted to rob.

This person seems to be the leader of the bandits.

There are about seventy or eighty people in this group of bandits, many of them are martial arts masters with cultivation, and the leader of the bandits, who has reached the fifth stage of martial arts, is considered a good master, no wonder he can gather so many people and gather in the mountains and forests.

"What a cliché, can't you play with something new?"

At this moment, a middle-aged man's voice came from the carriage, mocking the group of bandits, implying that what they were playing with was too old-fashioned.

"Huh?"

The bandit leader was stunned for a moment, and realized that it was not good, it seemed that there was fraud.

I saw that the carriage burst violently, and a middle-aged man in semi-armor stood on the carriage board, and with him, there were several other soldiers, who seemed to be from the government.

In an instant, the bandit leader understood that this was the government's plan to arrest them, so he engaged in such a plan to lure the enemy.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and today I finally met you. The middle-aged man held a spear in his hand and said slowly.

At this time, the groom driving also changed, no longer cowering, but became strong and powerful, and it seemed that he was also dressed as a soldier. As for the mercenary-like guards, they were not ordinary mercenaries, but regular soldiers.

"Brothers, don't panic, there are only a few of them, and it's still far away to come with reinforcements, so let's clean them up first, and then say, the archers will shoot me." ”

This bandit leader, too, is so simple, knows that these people have reinforcements, but they don't arrive so quickly. And they themselves, not far away, were ambushed by archers, and they could be suppressed with bows and arrows first.

The bandits took a dozen steps back, and in an instant, a rain of arrows shot over.

Whoosh whoosh snatch.

The arrows rained down, most of them hitting the board, and even the horses were screaming in pain.

"Don't panic, reinforcements will be there soon. ”

The middle-aged man with a spear in his hand hurriedly stabilized the morale of the army, there are only a dozen of them here, they can resist for a while, as long as the reinforcements arrive, these bandits will not be able to escape even if they put on their wings.

As he spoke, the middle-aged man waved his spear and danced back and forth, bouncing off all the feathered arrows that came at him.

There were about twenty or thirty archers on the other side, and the crosshairs were average, but this kind of iron arrowhead bow and arrow was very powerful, and several people were killed on the spot.

The middle-aged man took the lead, standing at the front and brandishing a spear, fending off the feathered arrows that came at him. But this is not of much use, because the carriage is broken, which means that the current situation is to stand in place and be a target for others, and the end can be imagined.

Twenty or thirty people took turns shooting, and after hundreds of feather arrows were issued, the government was almost dead, plus the middle-aged people, only two or three people were still alive, and the situation was a bit miserable.

A trace of unbearability flashed on the middle-aged man's face, it seemed that he was underestimating this bandit.

"Brothers, retreat. ”

The bandit leader, seeing that the middle-aged man was skilled in marksmanship, could resist feather arrows with a few swings at will, which was obviously not an ordinary skill. And their purpose is to rob money, since they know that this is a conspiracy of the government, they will not get any benefit if they continue to fight, so they immediately decided, and the bandit leader immediately ordered a retreat, not to entangle with these officers and soldiers, it is too cunning.

"Where is it so easy to go?"

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, and he killed it with a spear, killing two slow-running bandits on the spot.

"Retreat up the hill. ”

The bandit leader gave the order again.

The middle-aged man was very angry, not only because he underestimated this group of bandits, which made his side suffer a lot of losses, but more than a dozen brothers were almost killed and injured, he was angry. R1058
