Chapter 19 Heading to Ye County, I met horse bandits on the road
The next day, the morning just started to shine.
Two hundred Black Armor soldiers received orders to assemble at the school yard of the first battalion.
Before leaving, Zhou Shan came to the camp account of Wu Commander.
"Zhou Shan, I just received a letter from Captain Ye County." Wu Commander said: "In Ye County, there has been a group of horse bandits recently, and many caravans' goods have been robbed, and the captain of Ye County has sent people to encircle and suppress this group of horse bandits, but every time the Black Armor Army leaves the city to suppress the bandits, this group of bandits seems to have received news in advance, and they have disappeared without a trace.
Captain Ye County suspected that someone in the city had fornicated with the horse bandits and reported to this gang of horse bandits, so every time the Black Armor Army went out of the city to suppress the bandits, it was in vain, so the Captain Ye County wrote a letter asking for help, and wanted to send a Black Armor Army from Qingyang City to suppress the bandits.
Now that you have formed a bandit team, then go to Ye County first and eliminate this group of horse bandits.
It is best to be able to capture the leader of the horse bandits alive and interrogate which forces in the county are fornicating with the horse bandits, and this kind of selfish and selfish force that destroys the stability of a county, the black armor army must resolutely crack down on and exterminate it. ”
"I see!" Zhou Shan nodded, and then said, "What else does the Lord Commander command?" ”
"That's all for the time being, the bandit team is relatively free, you can decide where to go to suppress the bandits, if there is any urgent task, I will send someone to inform you." After speaking, Commander Wu waved his hand and said, "Go down!" ”
"Understood, subordinates retired."
Zhou Shan arched his hand and withdrew from the camp.
Soon, Zhou Shan came to the first camp of the school field.
A centurion was in charge of the roll call, and after the roll call, he came to Zhou Shan's side, and said in a loud voice: "Lord Captain, all the two hundred black armor troops are here, and no one is absent, ask for instructions." ”
"Let's go, go to Ye County!"
Zhou Shan gave an order.
Two hundred black-armored soldiers followed him and left the barracks.
Zhou Shan sat down, it was a demon beast called the Black Scale Horse.
Demon beasts are beasts that embark on the path of cultivation.
For example, the difference between a demon beast and a beast is equivalent to a warrior among humans.
But it is not an easy thing to subdue the demon beast, it is much more ferocious than the beasts such as the tiger and the lion, and only a big force like the Guiyuan Sect has the strength to train the demon beast.
However, the number of monsters will not be too many.
At present, only the military camp in Qingyang County has a certain number of demon beast mounts.
The black-scaled horse, the whole body is covered under a layer of black scale armor, as if it is covered with a layer of iron armor, although it is just an ordinary demon beast, but in terms of strength, it is equivalent to a third-rate martial artist, if it fights, the black-scaled horse can kick the tiger to death.
In the Qingyang County military camp, only centurions and above are qualified to be equipped with black-scaled horses.
The mount of the ordinary black armor army is a red flame horse with the blood of a thin demon beast, and the red fur is like a flame.
Zhou Shan led two hundred black armor troops and soon left Qingyang City.
The Black Armor Army followed the avenue and hurried quickly in the direction where Ye County was located.
The fall of the Great Jin Dynasty, the major forces are attacking each other, and the flames are in the sky, which breeds countless bandits, and some homeless people cannot survive, and can only become bandits.
Qingyang City has a large army of black armor in charge, so it needs to be more stable, but outside Qingyang City, there is chaos.
Zhou Shan felt this when he escorted the ordnance before.
It's just that the task that time was to escort the ordnance, and everything was based on safety, so as long as the other party escaped quickly and avoided the bandits, there was no need for the Black Armor Army to pursue these bandits.
But this time was different.
Zhou Shan's task is to suppress bandits.
Therefore, the bandits encountered on the way to Yexian, especially the kind of bandits who slaughtered villages and destroyed the door and committed many crimes, Zhou Shan naturally would not let go, and he did not need to take action personally, as long as he ordered a centurion to take forty black-armored soldiers, it was enough to eliminate these ordinary bandits.
There are still a few bandits with first-class martial artists in charge.
When they arrived in Ye County, Zhou Shan, a large and small bandit, wiped out more than a dozen units.
The Black Armor Army entered Ye County and advanced along the main road.
Zhou Shan was still thinking about how to find the bandits, but on the way to the army, he encountered a group of bandits besieging the caravan.
The caravan was huge, with hundreds of carts, each of which was loaded with goods, not counting the grooms, there were as many as two hundred guards, and the word 'Zhang' was written on the banner raised high.
These guards were well-armed, not only with swords and armor, but also with bows and crossbows.
Therefore, this group of horse bandits has not yet taken this caravan and is in the midst of fighting.
"This is the caravan of the Zhang family in Ye County, it seems that it is lucky."
Zhou Shan had a smile on his face.
He was worried that he didn't know how to find the horse bandits, if the whole county searched for them, the movement would be too big, and the horse bandits would probably receive the news and flee far away, but he didn't expect to meet the horse bandits not long after entering Ye County.
"Charge the whole army!"
Zhou Shan ordered, and the two hundred black armor troops immediately launched a charge.
……
……
"Young Master, you can't ask for these goods." In the caravan of the Zhang family, a middle-aged man dressed as a steward said in a deep voice: "The goal of these horse bandits is this batch of goods, we will take people to break through directly, and we should be able to leave safely, I think these horse bandits will not dare to continue to chase down, but if they hold on, they can only hold on for two quarters of an hour at most, and the family's reinforcements may not be able to catch up." ”
"Damn!" The eldest young master of the Zhang family was aggrieved in his heart, and said angrily: "How did this group of horse bandits know the time and route of our transportation, and set up an ambush on the way to Lushan County, instead of Kunyang County, could it be that there are horse bandits in the city?"
In the past six months, we have been robbed twice of our cargo.
If we continue like this, we will not only not be able to make any money this year, but we will even lose money. ”
"Alas, let's start breaking through!"
The eldest young master of the Zhang family sighed.
But just as he finished speaking, the ground shook violently.
"Young Master, it's the Black Armor Army!" The middle-aged butler pointed to the horse bandits who suddenly dispersed, and said with a look of surprise: "The Black Armor Army is here, we don't have to break through, and the goods can be saved." ”
"It's not good, it's the Black Armor!"
The leader of the horse bandits saw the black torrent in the distance rushing over, and his face suddenly changed greatly.
The people in Ye County only provided him with the transportation time and route of the Zhang family's caravan, and did not mention the Black Armor Army at all, so he would rest assured that he would boldly plunder the Zhang family's caravan.
Unexpectedly, a team of black armor soldiers suddenly appeared.
"Brothers, get on your horse immediately and withdraw quickly."
The leader of the horse bandits immediately shouted.
"Hahaha, kill me, the Black Armor Army is here, and we must not let these horse bandits escape."
Seeing that these horse bandits were about to escape, the eldest young master of the Zhang family laughed, and naturally he would not let go of this opportunity for revenge, and immediately ordered to the guards around him.
The guards of the Zhang family immediately entangled these horse bandits.
