Chapter 247: Destroying the withered and decaying

Fang Xiaoyu naturally attaches great importance to the matter of raiding the smoke and dust of the Seventeenth Road, although when he was in the capital, he had confronted the anti-Qing rebels of the Red Flower Society in the Seventh Heaven, but that time was purely based on the tower and waiting for rescue, you must know that it is an important place in the capital, and the reinforcements from the Admiral Yamen may rush to the rescue at any time, which is destined to make it impossible for those chaotic parties to stay there for long, once the reinforcements arrive, they will naturally choose to retreat. But this time they had to face the smoke and dust of the Seventeenth Road. Seventeen Road Smoke and Dust is not the Red Flower Society's chaotic party has so many concerns, they are real bandits, over the years they have robbed merchants and killed countless people, even the imperial court's army of conquest has been defeated many times, in the face of such bandits, no one dares to have the slightest carelessness, you must know that fighting with such bandits, it is going to die, not to mention Fang Xiaoyu, who has never experienced much war, in order to avoid accidents, before leaving, not only let everyone check the bow and crossbow again, The horses also sent out several masters of the Shuo Wangfu as spies, and let them stare at the every move of the Seventeen Smoke and Dust, and after doing this, he led everyone to attack the station of the Seventeenth Road Smoke and Dust.

Yongqi Gege was naturally a little disdainful of Fang Xiaoyu's caution, and along the way, she was naturally the other party's Xiaoyu sneering: "Isn't it just a group of rabble, do you need to be so cautious?"

"The rabble, you can say this," Fang Xiaoyu smiled bitterly: "Seventeen Road Yanchen is not an ordinary bandit and robber, over the years, they have not only robbed the past merchants, plundered the nearby ten miles and eight towns, even the imperial court's military salary and silver have been robbed many times, and even the imperial court's conquest army has returned many times in vain, do you say they are a rabble?" Besides, even if they are a rabble, we must also attach great importance to it, and we must know that fighting with bandits will kill people, kill 10,000 people, and lose 3,000 ourselves. ”

Yongqi Gege's mouth pursed: "That's as evil as you say." ”

Fang Xiaoyu's face looked very solemn: " As a qualified commander, the priority should not be how to make meritorious contributions, his first consideration should be how to reduce the cost of casualties of the soldiers, in how to maximize the safety of the soldiers to make meritorious contributions, kill and injure the enemy, if you can't even do this, how can everyone follow you to live and die, you must know that this person is raised by his parents, but there is only one life for everyone, if a person dies, this life is gone, and no amount of money and pension can be exchanged for a fresh life, so you can strategically despise any enemy, but in tactics you must pay attention to any opponent, because one paralysis is enough for you to play with your own life. ”

After saying this, he followed and instructed Yokoyama Sakurako beside him: " Sakurako, today's task is not to follow everyone to kill the enemy, but to protect our Gege, our Gege is both willful and impulsive, never know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, no one can be sure what kind of demon moth she will come out of the next moment, so your task today is to follow her every step of the way, always protect her safety, don't let any enemy approach her, hurt her, this anyone not only includes our enemies, but even includes her herself to hurt her, as long as our Gege is safe and sound, I will credit you。 ”

"Hey!"

Yokoyama Sakurako responded very respectfully.

Hearing Fang Xiaoyu's words, Yongqi Gege was very dissatisfied, with round eyes: "I said surnamed Fang, what do you mean by this, you made it clear to me, what do you mean by not allowing any enemies, including herself, to hurt her, do you look down on people so much?"

But Fang Xiaoyu didn't pay attention to her at all, but asked everyone to check their bows and crossbows and horses one last time. After ensuring that the horses and crossbows were safe, Fang Xiaoyu and Prince Shuo each led everyone to run for seventeen miles of smoke and dust twenty miles away.

Although the twenty-mile road is a bit far, this road is not a short time for them who are equipped with all elite horses, although it cannot be said to be instantaneous, but it will not take much time, but Fang Xiaoyu did not lead them to kill them directly without risking loss, but stopped at a distance of three miles from the bandits, observing those bandits and robbers.

Those bandits and robbers have now occupied a village of more than 200 households, and now the cadres are killing pigs and sheep on the threshing floor at the entrance of the village, burying pots and cooking rice, and the whole village has made them miserable, and what surprised Fang Xiaoyu even more was that they didn't even arrange a sentry in the open and the dark.

Seeing the chaotic appearance of this group of bandits, not only Fang Xiaoyu couldn't help but be surprised, you must know that the seventeenth road smoke and dust are legendary bandits, they not only robbed the passing merchants, robbed the imperial court's military salaries and disaster relief silver, and even the imperial court's army of conquest and suppression was also repeatedly defeated, but the current performance of some bandits was too far from what he imagined, so he turned his puzzled gaze to Prince Shuo: " Lord, do you say that they are the bandits who have repeatedly defeated the imperial court's conquest army, what kind of murderous bandits are they, they are simply a group of rabble, if they can't even destroy such bandits, then the performance of the imperial court's green battalion soldiers and horses is too unsatisfactory. ”

Prince Shuo was also very puzzled at the moment, and the current behavior of these bandits was clearly a group of rabble: "Did you say that the bandits set some trap for us?"

Fang Xiaoyu looked very calm: "If there is a trap, you will know, immediately chime, let the masters of the palace we send out quickly gather here, and after a quarter of an hour, launch a general attack on the bandits." ”

Yongqi Gege asked a little impatiently: "Why don't you attack immediately, looking at the messy appearance of the bandits, they are not at all guarded, we can completely catch them off guard." ”

Fang Xiaoyu explained: " We are equipped with a full color of repeating crossbows, even crossbows are only after the other party assembled, in order to exert the maximum lethality, although the bandits in front of them are a group of vulnerable rabble, but with them hard collision is the next policy, and the principle of combat is to protect themselves first, and then to the maximum extent to kill the enemy, kill 10,000, self-damage 3,000 this kind of stupid thing we resolutely do not do, rather than rushing over to the other side now, it is better to wait for them to assemble, with the bow and crossbow to kill the enemy to the greatest extent. ”

"Oh!"

Yongqi Gege responded as if he didn't understand.

Just as they were pointing at the bandits, the bandits also saw them, and when they saw them, the bandits naturally shouted and gathered, and then rushed towards them.

Seeing this, Prince Shuo was immediately happy: "These bandits really don't know whether to live or die. "8090 Chinese

As he spoke, he pulled out the sword at his waist and was eager to try.

Fang Xiaoyu's performance was much simpler, he only heard him a killing word exit, his mount had been the first to rush out, taking the lead, and naturally followed by Prince Shuo's father and daughter and his brothers and the masters of Shuo Wangfu, although the reaction of those Eight Banners disciples was a little flustered, but on the whole, they were okay, they each held bows and crossbows, and rushed out after them.

The two groups of people approached quickly from far and near, approaching, and when the two sides were about ten steps apart, they heard Fang Xiaoyu's shout: "Kill!"

As he spoke, he shot three arrows at the front three bandits.

It was said to be late, but it was fast, the arrow light only flashed, and the three bandits in front had been hit by the arrow and flew out upside down.

At the same time, the masters of the Shuowang Mansion and those Eight Banners disciples were also very skillful in operating the crossbows to shoot at the bandits who rushed over, and their shots were hundreds of crossbow arrows, densely shooting at the bandits who rushed over.

Although those bandits are all thieves who lick blood from the knife edge and kill people like numbness, but they have never seen such an attack, as soon as those dense arrows rain into their camp immediately fell a large piece, the rest of the bandits are all pale faces, where do they dare to continue to charge, they turned around and fled immediately, but they just escaped a few steps, they were chased up from behind by those Eight Banners disciples, and they were shot down one by one with steel crossbows from behind, among them, even Yongqi Gege shot a few fleeing bandits with steel crossbows.

Seeing his subordinates fleeing like a fallen tree, the bandits led by him naturally felt very bad, but he had lost the meeting to escape at this time, Prince Shuo had already led a group of masters of the palace, surrounded him tightly, Yongqi Gege used a pair of steel crossbows to face him tightly: "Surrender quickly, Gege I am a lot of favors, and those who surrender will not be killed." ”

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Prince Shuo's voice: "Girl, don't mess around, stand aside for Amma." ”

Yongqi Gege protested: "What do you call me fooling around, I shot three bandits to death just now, don't believe you ask Yokoyama Sakurako." ”

Prince Shuo twitched the corners of his eyes when he heard this, he only used a steel knife to cut a bandit, and his baby daughter shot three bandits to death in this moment's effort, and the gap between them was too big: "Girls should be quiet and quiet, kill someone fiercely, I think you will marry in the future?"

Yongqi Gege smiled and asked, "Amma, how many have you killed, won't you kill all of them?"

"How is it possible, who are you, Amma, that is the famous and brave Prince Shuo in the court, how can it be that he hasn't even killed a bandit?"

Yongqi Gege's eyes flashed: "Then how many you killed, it can't be less than my daughter, right?"

"It's less than you've killed, and you look down on Amma, don't you?"

Yongqi Gege naturally denied it again and again: "Daughter, how dare I look down on Amma, in my daughter's heart, Ama is naturally the bravest." ”

"That's natural, but your bow and crossbow seem to be pretty good, can you let Amma see it?"

"Well, Xiaoyu is right, this repeater is naturally better than ordinary weapons, and it can be fired in bursts, daughter, I suggest that you also use repeaters in the future, it is better than your broadsword. ”

Yongqi Gege sent the steel crossbow in his hand over.

Prince Shuo was there inspecting the steel crossbow, which was indeed smaller than his broadsword, and easy to carry.

The bandit leader who was ignored by them was naturally shocked and angry: "Who are you?"
