Chapter 12: The Mysterious Foursome
"It doesn't matter who we are. www.biquge.info The enemy commander replied to us with a stiff Chinese: "Without this woman, you would all have to die." ”
"You, yes!" the enemy commander praised the old spear girl again, and waved his hand.
The enemy troops in the tree obeyed the order, and with two bolts of arrows, our companion who was still struggling under the tree was pinned to the ground.
Brother, like this, died in front of us.
We were so angry that we almost lost our minds.
The old spear girl held us back, and the lame herald grabbed us.
"Don't act rashly, you can't beat it, this time we admit it. The cripple gritted his teeth and said word by word that he was the leader of the team, and that he had to take on the responsibility of commanding in addition to anger.
The enemy commander waited until the end to see that he could not tempt us, and his face showed a slightly surprised look, and he praised again: "You, yes, not an ordinary horse, then we will have a certain time later." With that, he waved his men to put away the corpses of their companions, and began to retreat slowly from under the trees.
We only saw when we retreated, plus the hidden, that this time they had infiltrated at least fifteen or sixteen enemies.
.
"Do you want to shoot an arrow?" asked the companion.
"No, this small group of them is not here to invade, put away the corpses of our partners, and we will retreat the same way and join the reinforcements. The lame herald rejected the proposal, judging that it was only a small force of the enemy, and did not want to use the sound of arrows to alarm the large army.
I vomited all over the ground as I cleaned up my companion's corpse, I didn't feel ashamed, I just felt sorry for why I didn't have an ancestral stunt, and it felt terrible to watch my brothers die in front of me and be powerless.
.
The only group of five of us walked back in silence carrying the corpses of our companions, and as soon as we got out of the main road, we saw the first wave of galloping horses, and at a cursory glance there were three or four groups of people.
"It's seven, eight, nine, these three groups of people are coming" The cripple explained to us the brothers who came to help, and after a pause and hesitated, he said: "Strange, there are four other people who are not wearing the uniforms of the cavalry battalion, and I have never seen this kind of uniform."
We observed that in addition to the seven, eight, and nine group leaders, there were indeed four people who were quite special, and the uniforms they wore were pure black and full of dust. There are no signs on the uniforms, and they don't bring uniform weapons, there are back bows and knives, and there is even one who doesn't see a weapon on his body, but just a thin cord around his waist that can't be seen, which is black and shiny.
The four of them were silent, just gathered around us and listened quietly, allowing the leaders of the seven, eight, and nine groups to inquire about the situation.
The lame herald glanced at the four people, and then at the leader of the seventh group, who immediately explained: "These people were sent by the top to investigate the case, and they came with us before they got off the horse." The lieutenant demanded that the entire cavalry battalion fully cooperate with them in carrying out their tasks without delay. ”
The lame man gave a military salute to the four, and then gave a brief introduction.
The leader of the four mysterious people was an uncle with a Chinese face, and he didn't give the cripple a salute in return, but just nodded. When he heard the part where the enemy cut people with a throwing rope, his eyes lit up, and he directly gave an order: "Arrange for people to go back first, and then transfer five groups of people over." The 7893 group went out of the forest to pursue the left flank, and when the enemy was entangled, be sure to delay their return journey"
After saying that, he turned his head and instructed us, "You lead the way, follow me to the scene of the encounter just now!"
The cripple knew that I would not be willing to return to the camp, so he arranged for another brother to send the corpse back to the camp, and then reminded the seven, eight, and nine groups who were about to leave: "It's not a big thunder scout over there, it's a master." If you can't beat it, just wrap it up, and don't get hard."
Uncle Guozi's face aggravated his tone dissatisfiedly: "Even if you die, you have to hold off the enemy and wait for help, the stakes are so important that there must be no mistakes." ”
The military order is like a mountain, no matter how dissatisfied we are, we can't question it on the spot, so we can only lead the way in silence in front.
.
It didn't take long to get back to the scene of the encounter.
The four of us took the initiative to disperse the vigilance, and the uncle with the national character face saw that the military literacy of the four of us was not bad, and nodded slightly.
Then I saw the legendary master.
The four of them didn't have to roll over and dismount at all, they floated over.
That's right, it's floating, and I didn't see their borrowing process at all, and the whole person drifted to the side of the low bushes set up by the enemy. Even their horses didn't notice that the man on their backs had left, and they were still trotting forward.
When they landed, it was quiet, and even the fallen leaves on the ground did not make the sound they should have.
I looked at the old girl with a blank expression
The old gun girl flew a kiss at me, and winked her right eye playfully, as if to say: "Marry me, marry me, marry me and you can get the peerless cheats and become a master."
I stiffened my head to look at the four mysterious people, and silently said in my heart: "Mother, what kind of army do you want the child to join...... , how can there be such a thing in the army. If you let your child join the army, it is better for you to find a master to be my father back then, so that the child can be born directly at the finish line. ”
.
The four mysterious masters examined the scene very closely, and then summoned us to our side.
"Describe in detail all the circumstances that have occurred since your contact, including your inner judgments, and I want the details. Uncle Guozi said.
The lame herald spoke in detail about the situation from entering the path to being ambushed, to saving his brother and then retreating.
Uncle Guozi-faced noticed one of the links and asked the lame: "Who reminded you and called you back?"
The lame man signaled that I was shouting, and introduced that I was just an intern on a first-time mission and had never officially been on the battlefield.
Uncle Guozi-faced asked me with interest: "Tell me, what did you think at that time." ”
I didn't think it was special, so I explained: "At first I thought it was a mid-ambush. Later it turned out that there were only three or four enemies, and they were still in the trees, so we thought they were enemy sentry posts, or they had stayed to watch the horses. ”
"Moreover, the horses of the first few groups of patrols did not pull the arrows, and we did not find any traces of a large number of enemy troops passing by, so we concluded that there should not be many of them coming in this time, so everyone decided to rescue the injured brothers first. ”
"When we went to rescue people, I made several discoveries, first, after the dark sentry was discovered by us, they would normally rush down the tree and retreat, but they didn't. Second, they are few of them, and we can rush to them with two volleys, then they will die in the trees. But after the first wave of suppressed volleys, they didn't fight back immediately, but seemed to lure us a little closer. So I intuitively felt something was wrong and shouted. ”
"Originally, I thought that no matter how bad the trap was, it would be just another round of cold arrows, but I didn't expect them to use this method of throwing ropes to yin people, these are not the methods of the cavalry at all. "I think back to my brother who was cut into three pieces.
"Yes, they are not the cavalry of the Great Thunder, and you will be lucky if you don't destroy them. Uncle Guoziface explained a little, and then said to me in a slightly appreciative tone: "You are good, a recruit can still maintain a relatively careful train of thought in the face of danger, and you will follow me later." ”
Then he went on to arrange: "Each of the three of you follows my subordinates, and you don't need to do anything in the situation, just cooperate with what we ask you to do." He arranged for the lame herald, the old spear girl, and another brother to be among his three other men, and then pointed in three directions.
