Chapter 149: Sneak Attack

On the wilderness, the black shadow was lying in the shadow without the light of the double moon, masked in black, countless pairs of eyes stared closely at the little fire not far away, the cold wind drowned the footsteps of the black shadow, and finally under the wave of a leading man in black, everyone stopped their movements and waited quietly.

Fifty meters away, a carriage with heavy grain squeaked on the road that was not wide, a group of soldiers with torches complained, the troops fighting in this ghost weather were busy resting, only the army responsible for transporting grain and grass had to send each other against the cold wind, but complaining is complaining, the usual logistics troops are still very good, at least there is no need to go out to fight, and there is still a lot of oil and water to fish, several soldiers got together, the leader of the squad took out a small iron kettle, which was the liquor he secretly beat when he came out, this ghost weather, in addition to being full, only this thing can make people feel comfortable。

The small iron kettle was divided into a circle in turns, and when it returned to the team leader's hand, there was not a drop left in the wine jug, laughing and scolding the group of bastards under his hands, the whip in the team leader's hand was raised and thrown out, and it was whipped on a ragged slave with a snap, and a blood mark was immediately drawn out of the thigh without clothes in the cold wind, the slave let out a miserable scream, but then forcibly held back, and the trembling body stared at the long knife on the squad leader's waist, and looked at the squad leader in fear, if the body is strong, this slave is much stronger than this squad leader, but after receiving this whip, he is Vino's hand with strength, and he doesn't even dare to snort more。

Slaves are a race that is even lower than civilians, and they are also the cheapest and even priceless labor, in addition to the Ron Empire, the other two large human empires have slaves, they have a wide range of sources, a wide range of uses, and a wide range of ways to deal with them.

Their faces will be branded as slaves, and then transferred from the hands of one master to the feet of another, the long hours of labor destroy their hearts, as long as they can live, they are willing to do anything, even like this strong slave, can endure the pain, under the cold wind, overdraw their vitality, and use all their strength on the carriage in front of them.

Very satisfied with the performance of this slave, the squad leader and a few of his subordinates laughed, and then continued to curse the ghost weather, the soldiers also followed, if it were not for the urgency of the war ahead, the usual delivery of grain and grass would never be carried out at night, but there is a small grain depot here, which is the closest to the Berna River among the many grain depots, these grains and grass will be loaded on the Berna River, and then go upstream, and it will take three days to reach the destination, and then how to transport the squad leader I don't know, but knowing these is enough to show off in front of his subordinates, so the squad leader is still very satisfied。

There is a woman at home who warms her bed, and outside is a group of subordinates who only look forward to their own horses, and they can rub some oil in the process of being on duty when they are idle, and they have a moist and comfortable life, what is not satisfied?

Look at the sky, the captain asked people to add a few more torches, I don't know why I am so unlucky today, encounter such a cloudy weather, if in the usual, under the light of the double moon, the torches are not used at all, the thick clothes on the body are doing their best to block the cold wind and take away the heat that is not easy to generate, the team leader cursed and stopped, this is a thousand-person grain and grass team, there are more than 100 cars of grain and grass in charge, not a lot of things, but also a lot, there should be a cavalry regiment for two to three days to eat, like this transport team in the Binis Empire is as many as a cow, plus there should be more than 3,000 slaves。

And this is an official road, and it is also very safe, and the bandits nearby know that the empire is sending troops, so they take back their usual claws, and this road is still quite easy to walk.

Thinking like this, the team leader suddenly heard an unusual sound, looked around, except for the wild grass that was constantly rising and falling in the cold wind, there was no vision, it was estimated that the beast came from somewhere, seeing that the team of so many people should have been scared away, after sneering disdainfully, he took out a small iron kettle from his chest and poured it to himself, this is the second pot of wine he brought before leaving, the first pot is reserved for those subordinates, this pot is not only to be enjoyed by himself, but also the quality is much better, this big gulp is the price of a pot of wine just now, naturally can not be shared with others。

When he was about to take a second sip, he suddenly felt his back straighten, as if something was resisting, and before he could react, his neck was cold, and the wine that he had not had time to swallow slowly flowed down from his neck mixed with blood.

Enemy!

This was his first subconscious reaction, wanting to make some movement, but his mouth was held down with a big hand, and the hand holding the wine jug was also pressed tightly on his chest, and then his vision was blurred, and one by one black shadows appeared silently, and he touched the subordinates who were still laughing with him just now, and there was also a figure with a cat's waist pouting posture that was extremely funny, and the team leader even wanted to laugh, but he was gently put down, and the darkness struck, and then he didn't know anything.

"Enemy attack!"

The terrible voice finally came from the mouth of a soldier who witnessed the fall of his companion behind him, if he didn't happen to want to talk to the soldier behind him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have found it, but even if he did, it was only an alarm, and a flying knife shot out of nowhere pierced his neck impartially, covering his neck in disbelief, the soldier fell down with a bang.

The whole transport team was suddenly chaotic, this attack came too suddenly, and when the escort team reacted, the other party had already cleaned up the rear of the troops, and what was even more hateful was that none of the slaves in the rear made a sound during the whole process, and in the whistling sound of the cold wind, there were nearly 100 people secretly put by the other party, who was the other party?

There are doubts in my heart, but no matter how big the doubts are, we must first pass the level in front of them, the remaining hundreds of soldiers began to assemble, the whole process was chaotic, some soldiers dragged their efforts to their chests, and some used weapons to drive the slaves to the rear, at the head of the escort troops, the leader in charge of the escort task just made the sound of assembly, and suddenly four or five feather arrows burst out in the dark night, and before he could finish shouting, he had been shot into a hedgehog, and then a desperate rain of arrows came, and immediately shot down a large area in front of the escort team。

Screams, ** sound one after another, originally thought that the enemies who came to sneak attack were concentrated in the rear, no one expected that the arrow rain would come after their back, at this time the surprise of the already loose team into a rout, the soldiers began to subconsciously disperse, and at the same time began to use slaves as shields, after two rounds of arrow rain, the corpses of slaves on the ground increased, and the soldiers were shocked to find that they had been surrounded.

The desperate soldiers let out a miserable cry for help, but the black shadows that rushed up had no scruples, as long as they were soldiers wearing the uniforms of the Binis Empire, they were cut to the ground one after another, this group of black-clothed people was agile, and the soldiers who had been pampered for a long time were not opponents at all, and even some squad leaders were able to resist one or two rounds, but then they couldn't stand the opponent's large number of people, and one person and one knife were cut into a blood gourd.

Finally, some soldiers were forced to collapse by the scene of Shura in front of them, and under the loss of their minds, they rushed towards the gap in the encirclement, hoping to get a glimmer of life, and one person escaping naturally led to other people, fear has been implanted in the hearts of every Binis Imperial soldier, they shouted hysterically, and the long knives and spears in their hands waved indiscriminately, hoping to scare off the oncoming man in black, but everything was in vain.

These men in black outpaced the speed at which the soldiers wielded their weapons, and although they also held long knives in their hands, they were able to avoid the weapons around them, and then sent their long knives into the body of their targets, carrying bloody arrows or blood mist, and then neatly withdrew their weapons and passed them into the body of another person.

This is a one-sided massacre, and soon the noisy shouting and killing sound slowly turned into a low ** sound, the man in black led by a wave of his hand, all the ** also disappeared, none of the soldiers of the Thousand Binis Empire escaped, and there was no one alive, the gap that seemed to be a chance to survive had actually been aimed by bows and arrows for a long time, and the number of corpses in that direction accounted for a quarter of the total number.

"Sir, what should you do with these slaves, have they all been killed?" asked a burly man in black in a respectful tone as he stepped in front of the emaciated figure.

The emaciated figure shook his head and said, "What about the casualties?"

"There are no dead, not even a single serious injury, all minor injuries, everyone is alive. When he said this, the big man was full of pride in his tone, and the fanaticism in his eyes was unabated, and he seemed to be extremely excited.

"That's good, these things, we take our own rations for five days, and the rest will be scattered on the road for me!" Looking at the convoy in front of him, the remaining slaves snuggled up to each other, looking at the black-clothed people around them with fear, and more staring at the long knives in their hands that were still dripping blood, for fear that if one accidentally angered these people, the long knives fell, and their lives would be gone.

"Sa?" Obviously, this big man didn't understand why he threw this good grain and grass on the road, was it too wasteful, and what should he do if he threw away the team's usual food?

"Come with me. Knowing that most of the big men in front of him would be disobedient, the emaciated figure just took him to the carriage and pointed to a sack and said, "How many days is enough food for you here?"

"Ahh ”

"Well, well, from now on, you can carry this bag of grain and follow the carriage. After saying that, the emaciated man in black snorted coldly and walked straight to the group of slaves.

"Come with me, I can make sure you eat enough every day, just like they ......" As soon as he turned around, the eyes of this emaciated figure couldn't help but be stunned.

That big man actually carried the food on his shoulders!
