Chapter 067: Sweeping the Barbarian Squad

Before the large-scale attack of the barbarians, a part of the barbarian squad once again infiltrated the territory of the western frontier through secret channels. This time, the number of barbarian squads infiltrated was much higher than the last time, and there were many more infiltration points.

Although the number of barbarians in each squad is only two or three hundred, there are almost thirty or forty squads, and the damage caused is still very large. Of course, more important is the impact of this.

A large number of border villages have been destroyed, a large number of border people have been killed, and a large number of resources have been plundered or destroyed.

An inexplicable panic also spread in the border areas of western Xinjiang, and some border residents who got the news began to leave their homes on their own initiative and gathered towards nearby cities. A wave of displaced people immediately appeared. Traces of displaced people began to appear in many cities, and unstable factors began to quietly appear in these cities.

In this case, an order was sent to Ma Shuo by Fan Zeng through the hidden guard.

The militia attacked, swept away the barbarian squads that had infiltrated the western frontier, and immediately received orders to launch the operation from the day of the barbarian's left ear to record military merits and the order.

The military order is not many words, but the content is clear and full of murderous atmosphere.

At the same time, judging from the information obtained by the hidden guards, there are about fifteen militia groups that have been officially ordered to be established, and these militia organizations have all received the same military order. In this way, it means that Ma Shuo has a competitor this time.

Therefore, Ma Shuo must seize the time, take the lead, and compete for limited military merits. During this period, military merit was very important, especially since Ma Shuo also had an official status as a commander.

Ma Shuo still has a certain advantage over other vigilante organizations, because he has the hidden guard organization in his hands, and it is more convenient to obtain information about the barbarian team. Along with the military order, there was information about the three barbarian squads.

Because the number of barbarian squads was not very large, Ma Shuo decided to divide the troops into two ways this time. However, both sides are waving the banner of the militia group, and it is not appropriate to play the banner of the thousand-man team for the time being.

Ma Shuo personally led one way, and this time Ma Shuo handed over the other way to Jin Tian, who was also the deputy commander of the Thousand People's Team. However, those Panlong Guards still stayed by Ma Shuo's side, and their task was to protect Ma Shuo, temporarily under the command of Deputy Commander Ding Yang.

The soldiers were divided into two roads, both of which rode horses, which was just in response to the speed of the soldiers.

Yashi Village is a small border village with four or five hundred veterans who are old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as veterans who have retired from the sick, wounded, and disabled. There are not many able-bodied adults in the village, that is, less than fifty. The village guard team composed of 50 people is the main escort force of the entire village.

During this time, the rumors outside had reached Yashi Village, so everyone in Yashi Village was also nervous. Every day, in addition to the people who work, there are always some members of the escort who patrol and stand guard.

Dangdang!

Suddenly, an urgent gong sounded.

Enemy Attack –

The people in the border villages have some understanding of the meaning of the gong, and this is the appearance of an enemy. The enemy who appeared at this time was naturally the barbarians.

Women, children, hurry to the cellar and hide in the cellar. Men, all men, as long as they were able to walk, took up arms and hurried to the edge of the village, relying on the rudimentary defenses, ready to start a great battle with the invading barbarians and defend their homeland.

Soon, the barbarians from a squad of barbarians who infiltrated appeared in everyone's field of vision. Good fellow, the barbarian squad that infiltrated this time was obviously carefully selected, one was a sturdy physique, and his weapons and equipment were also very good, holding a longbow, carrying a javelin and other weapons on his back, and a knife weapon on his waist.

Shoot!

When the opponent came within range of the attack, the captain of the guard gave the order to attack. Immediately, dozens of hunting bamboo arrows shot out from the woods at the entrance of the village, heading straight for the barbarians.

Flutter, flutter –

Several barbarians who rushed ahead were immediately shot. However, to the despair of the villagers, the arrows did not do much damage to the other party, because the barbarians were wearing special armor that blocked the arrows.

Hahaha!

Kill! Grab it! These native monkeys of the Qin State are all soft eggs.

Seeing that the villagers' bows and arrows did not do them any harm at all, the barbarians became even more arrogant, and one by one roared and quickened the speed of the attack, but in a few moments they rushed into the village, and engaged the guards in close combat.

The weapons of the escort team are actually very ordinary, and in front of these barbarians, there is no advantage at all. Soon, many members of the convoy were slashed or even hacked to death by the weapons in the hands of the barbarians.

However, the guards and the other villagers did not take a step back, knowing full well that behind them were their homes and loved ones, and that if they broke in, their homes and relatives would be slaughtered. Therefore, they do not hesitate to sacrifice themselves and stumble each other's footsteps with their lives.

The battle was brutal.

One by one, members of the convoy or ordinary villagers fell under the weapons of the barbarians, blood flowing on the ground, and the sounds of pain filled the entrance of the village. Of course, there are also some barbarians who have also lost their lives under the counterattack of the desperate members of the escort team, and some villagers even directly hugged each other when they had no hope of survival, and used their lives to create opportunities for their companions to attack the barbarians.

However, the gap between the two sides is too great, the members of the village guard team are getting fewer and fewer, and the number of villagers who can fight is getting smaller and smaller. Some of the barbarians had already stormed the village and began to plunder with impunity. Some poorly hidden women and children were also found by these barbarians, and for these women and children, the barbarians were not merciful, and directly slashed with knives. The screams, the cries, soon resounded throughout the village.

Da-da-da-da!

Just when the remaining villagers were almost desperate, a crisp sound of horses' hooves came from far and near.

"Kill, don't leave a single one!"

Ma Shuo, who rushed to the front of the team, soon saw the scene in the village, and immediately became furious, and gave the slaughter order against the barbarian squad with a cold face.

With Ma Shuo's order, the sergeants who followed Ma Shuo immediately waved their sabers and rushed out, slashing unceremoniously towards the barbarians who were still frantically killing the villagers.

Click!

A large head flew straight out of the barbarian's neck, crossed a parabola, and rolled to the ground. A moment later, a headless corpse fell to the ground.

With the advantage of cavalry speed and height, those barbarians who broke into the village quickly tasted the taste of being chased and slaughtered, which was really unpleasant.
