Chapter 143: People at the Border
In the northern border of the Daye Empire, there is a man dressed in silver armor, holding a spear, riding a white horse with the sunset.
It can be seen that this man is very tired, and the god horse under his crotch has lost the vigor of his energy.
On the horizon behind the man, the sun had already set in the west, and against the light, I saw the silhouette of a horse with a spear in his hand and a horse under his crotch slowly approaching. Soon, the second, the third, in groups, a black silhouette appeared from across the horizon.
As the black pressure of a silhouette approached, the sound of horses' hooves shook the sky and thundered.
And on this side of the camp, on the railing of the watchtower, there was a man reclining. The man was dressed in an ice blue cloak, his body was hidden under the cloak, his eyes were closed, and he couldn't breathe.
When the group of knights, who were quite numerous, were still a thousand feet away from the camp, the blue-robed man on the watchtower suddenly opened his eyes, and then, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, revealing an evil smile.
After a while, the camp could already see the scene of the return of the tired knights, and the little soldier who was in the watchtower with the blue-robed man saw the return of a group of soldiers, and immediately took out the horn and began to play.
The soldiers of the whole camp heard the trumpet with joy in their hearts, and they knew that it was not the enemy who was coming, but their General Liang who had returned with his brothers. One by one, they were all excited and joyful, and the lieutenant directly ordered the firehead soldiers to stew meat tonight to celebrate General Liang and others.
But when the knights approached, everyone saw it clearly, and it was not only General Liang and General Liang who had taken away the 500 people at the beginning. The horses in front of him were all ridden by only one person, and on the horses behind, there were many horses, and there were two people. And when he counted the number of horses, there were not five hundred, but there were still more than three hundred.
The crowd wondered, and when the team got closer, they could see more clearly, and they saw the other people on the horse, both old and young, women and children. Looking at their clothes, it is even more puzzling.
Judging only by clothing, there are Daye people and Northern Qi people.
In a few moments, more than three hundred horsemen had returned to the camp. The silver-armored spear general at the front of the team turned over and dismounted, but his pace was unsteady, if it wasn't for the soldiers on the side who quickly supported him, he was afraid that he would have collapsed directly to the ground at this time.
"General Liang, these are ······"
The lieutenant looked at the extra people behind him, puzzled, and asked directly.
This silver-armored spear general who took the lead was naturally Liang Boye, the white jade mad dragon who was entrusted by Bai Ling to the border of Daye and Northern Qi. At this moment, his red scarf was shattered, only half of it was left, and there were also many sword and axe marks on the original majestic armor, and there were even holes in the arrows that were pierced.
And Liang Boye himself, his hair is messy, and his originally handsome face is also dirty at the moment. A pair of black and white eyes, full of bloodshot at the moment.
Exhaustion, that endless exhaustion finally opened like a floodgate at the moment of arrival at the camp, and the flood poured in.
The man in the ice blue cloak looked down at all this, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook slightly. When he came, he inquired about the situation, and heard that the white jade dragon Liang general had come to the camp, and then selected five hundred good hands, and screened five hundred horses, and then the team of five hundred people was full of food and drink, and walked away.
Now that they are back, there are still three hundred and twenty or thirty horsemen, not to mention that these five hundred knights are all elites, but the leading talent of this white jade mad dragon is indeed amazing.
It was also at this time that the soft sword that the blue-robed man wrapped around his waist as a belt began to tremble slightly. The blue-robed man couldn't help frowning, the six swords on his body, this soft sword was the most secure, and this situation had never happened, which made him puzzled.
Although the trembling sound was faint, it was still noticed by the exhausted and tired White Jade Crazy Dragon Liang General below. Liang Boye couldn't help but look up at the watchtower, and when he saw a person in an ice blue cloak leaning on the railing above, his expression couldn't help but change.
"When did this man come to the barracks?"
Hearing Liang Boye ask, the lieutenant also looked up and replied: "The last general didn't know who this person was, but it just so happened that there was a young general in the army who had walked through the rivers and lakes for a few years and recognized this person's costume, saying that he was a character in the twilight building of the Jianghu Sect. Called, called ······"
"Seven-Star Sword Saint, silent!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it is called to be silent. ”
Liang Boye staggered to his feet, and after stabilizing himself with a spear, his eyes were still staring at Leng Buzhi, and his mouth couldn't help but say: "The world is out of my generation, and the years are urging when I enter the rivers and lakes." Lifting the sword across the ghost rain, the white bones are like mountain birds flying in shock. ”
When Du Wei heard it, although he was a big old man, how could he not feel the domineering spirit revealed in these four sentences.
The lieutenant couldn't help but nodded, and echoed: "The characters who can do this, not to mention the heroes of the world, should also be outstanding people." General Liang, what a literary style. ”
Hearing Du Wei's praise, Liang Boye smiled, and then said: "I am a good guy, how can I have the ability to say such a sentence." These few words were said by the predecessors when they commented on this coldness. "The end of the world
"Do you know everything?"
Du Wei didn't pay attention to the name Leng Buyu, but was a little curious about the four words Zhiwuyan. It's interesting to say, the nicknames of the people walking on the rivers and lakes are much more interesting than those of them in the mixed sand field.
The cold and silent figure of the blue cloak moved, turned over and fell from the watchtower, and landed steadily. Or because of General Liang's attitude before, he fell to the ground without saying a word, and the soldiers around him surrounded him with swords and spears.
Coldly smiled, and Liang Boye hurriedly stopped him, signaling the soldiers to be restless.
Liang Boye was about to come over, but he was silent and saw that he had lost the strength he had originally supported, and he wanted to mention it again, it was really difficult to climb to the sky. Without Liang Boye coming over, he leaned straight towards Liang Boye without saying a word.
He only moved, and those tiger and wolf men couldn't be reserved, and the blades shook again, reflecting the silver rays. Leng Bu smiled hehehe, then flicked his right hand, took off the ice blue cloak on his body, and threw it casually on a soldier on the side.
Without the cloak to cover it, the whole body belongings were clear at a glance, with two swords behind him, three short swords on his chest, and a metal belt around his waist.
Seeing this sword, the soldiers around him also raised their spirits one by one, and they were even more wary of Leng Bu suddenly making a move.
And Leng Bu Si did have action. He clenched his hands to the double sword behind his back, but then his movements were different from what everyone expected. Leng Buyu did not draw his sword, but took off the double sword behind his back with the sword sheath, and inserted the scabbard into the ground at his feet. Immediately afterwards, there were three short swords on his chest, one by one, and they were also put on the ground.
This series of actions made everyone wonder, and they didn't know what this guy was going to do.
And Liang Boye couldn't help but smile when he saw Leng Buyu's action. He looked at the lieutenant and said with some embarrassment: "Although I know that the border army is short of materials, Liang is greedy, and he may ask for some meat and two pots of wine." ”
When the lieutenant heard this, he immediately nodded. Although the distribution of materials is not within his purview, he can ask the fireman for some wine and meat for General Liang, even if the general comes back and knows, he will not say a word. Not to mention, he had already ordered the firehead to stew meat tonight to celebrate.
Liang Boye smiled and thanked him, and then looked at Leng Buyu, his voice was a little weak, and he said: "Brother Leng, Liang is fortunate that Brother Leng has a drink together?"
Leng Buyu smiled again, and didn't see him move, the five swords, two long and three short, flew directly and returned to their original places on their own. Seeing this scene, all the soldiers couldn't help but be stunned, and they nodded one after another, shocking their skills.
"Can you go?"
Listening to Leng Buzhi's question, Liang Boye nodded and stood up straight. But before he took a step, he stumbled again and almost fell upside down. But the strange scene, without the support of the captain, Liang Boye's body leaned there in a strange arc, but he didn't fall to the ground.
It's as if there is an inexplicable force supporting him.
Liang Boye looked up at Leng Bu silently, with an embarrassed expression, he smiled, and said softly: "Thank you Brother Leng······"
Liang Boye's words of thanks came out, and the next scene made him depressed. Leng Buyu walked in front, and his body floated behind Leng Buyu. Seeing this scene, the soldiers couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
When the lieutenant came back to his senses, he immediately hurried up, his voice was still a little unsteady, and said: "This, big, hero, wrong, wrong, wrong, the guy is not there, go here, here······"
Leng silently supported Liang Boye, and arrived at the room after a while. Leng Buyu looked at the house at a glance, and couldn't help sighing. Thinking of the soldiers of the border garrison who are strong in blood and ambition to serve the country, their living conditions are like this, and I can't help but itch slightly.
I thought that it was a border army of nearly 200,000 people, and the camps were of different sizes, even if this camp was not big, even if the room could not be exquisite, it should still be able to be settled. But what you can see in front of you, where can you make progress, you can only barely make do.
A few big black iron pots, a few iron buckets, the most precious thing is that few steamers.
Leng Bu walked into the room and walked around, and couldn't help frowning. He couldn't have imagined that what the soldiers here were eating was brown rice mixed with bran.
Maybe it was because he saw Leng Buyu's strange eyes, and the lieutenant who accompanied him could only smile embarrassedly, and said: "In the border area, it is enough to be full." Don't get me wrong, it's not that someone deliberately withheld the food and salary of our border army······"
Before the lieutenant could finish his words, Liang Boye took over and explained: "If it is only the soldiers of the border army who eat and drink, the food and salary allocated by the empire are indeed enough. It's a pity, it's a pity, this is the border after all, the Northern Qi Wolf Market invaded the land of Daye, and the days of the border people are completely purgatory. These soldiers could not bear to see the people on the border hungry, so they often divided part of their rations, and in the long run, it was the current situation. ”
Leng Buyu couldn't help but wonder a little, frowned and wondered, and asked, "Why don't you gather the border villages one by one and form a small city?"
When Liang Boye heard this, he smiled and said meaningfully: "In Daye, a city that never sleeps is enough." ”
