Chapter Twenty-Four: A Strange Military Order
Chapter Twenty-Four: Strange Military Orders
On the second day after Hou Ping'an fell into the cave, a cavalry came around the Tianxing Cave. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info the only cavalry in Tiannan.
There are not many of them, probably around a thousand horses. When the horse galloped, there was a wave of the sky. If a veteran who has been on the battlefield sees it, he will be amazed.
This iron cavalry carrying the black wolf banner should have been stationed at the most dangerous border pass of the Great Zhou to defend against the most ferocious enemies. Now, because of the order of one man, he has come to a hilly area that is not suitable for cavalry combat.
If some generals who are proficient in the art of war know, they will definitely say a violent thing.
The cavalry commander has been vacant, and in recent years he has been led by a lieutenant, stationed in the barracks of Tiannan County.
Since yesterday when they received the order, these thousand horsemen have been rushing here non-stop, and even eating is carried out on horseback. I didn't delay the military order, and I arrived just at sunrise.
The original small 100-mile road would have been left in the desert grassland. They were able to arrive in just an hour.
It's a pity that this is Tiannan, not to mention the twists and turns of the road, and the mountain road is tactful. There are few sheep intestine trails suitable for cavalry passage.
If they didn't know the truth of the military order, they would definitely wonder if the commander who led the troops was in the water.
Thousands of horses travel, and the young people naturally flee from the wind. Those martial arts people who were originally going to do the black hand the next day also hid early.
But Caijin is moving, there are always one or two people who are not afraid of death or who think they are strong in martial arts and refuse to give up. None of them lay under the horse's hooves.
Jianghu martial arts against the sergeant of the army, fighting alone, the soldier naturally has no chance of winning. Ten people are on a match against each other. And with more than 100 people, there is absolutely no possibility of luck for the people of Jianghu.
As for more than a thousand people, it's not a match, it's a massacre.
The morning light was woken up by the iron hoof.
Those Jianghu martial artists who were still around the Tianxing Cave had become the target of this cavalry's pursuit.
And this iron cavalry was given a list before they set out, and those on the list were all allowed to go, and those who were not on this list were greeted only by horses' hooves, scimitars, and crossbows.
Knowing the famous family of the Black Wolf Banner, he naturally registered his own number early to avoid being killed by mistake.
If you don't have a self-registration number, even if you are on the list, you can only say sorry, the military order is like a mountain, you can only cut it first.
Chivalry is forbidden by force.
The chivalry here is, of course, not a chivalrous man or a chivalrous. It is about those who rely on their own force, the ruffians, and the hooligans.
These people often rely on the kung fu of some three-legged cats to run rampant in the countryside and fish and meat neighbors.
When encountering one or two bold officials, they will naturally vigorously encircle and suppress them, but if they are local officials who bully the weak and are afraid of the hard, these martial artists will often become the second adults in the local area, and what they say may be more effective than the local parents' officials.
What's more, they will collude with officials to investigate the common people.
The imperial court is naturally never soft on this. However, due to the complexity of local forces, these martial artists are often suppressed but not destroyed.
The most famous is naturally in the second year of the Great Wei Dynasty, there was a place where the martial arts were raised for their own use, causing trouble to the neighbors. The imperial court sent troops three times, but none of them succeeded.
Not only did the court officials report to him, but also local officials helped cover his whereabouts.
In the end, the king of Great Wei had to leave the capital, and another secret force was transferred to complete the extermination of this group.
This is the Jianghu people in the eyes of the people and the court, the root of all troubles.
"Commander, the brothers haven't closed their eyes all night, do you want to take a break for a while. Anyway, we have already completed the target of this arrest. ”
"It's the acting commander, how many times have I told you, and the title can't be messed up. If these words are known to the gangsters in the capital, you kid will not be able to run away with thirty military sticks. ”
As the captain surnamed Chen, who actually commanded this cavalry, although he paid attention to the name, his psychology was already full of complaints about the arrangement of the military department.
In the past five years, he doesn't know how many copies he has handed over, and they have all sunk into the sea.
If he is not allowed to be transferred or sent to a commander, he has always been replaced by the lieutenant, and he has never been promoted.
Their most elite cavalry in the empire seemed to have been collectively forgotten by the court bigwigs.
"Don't be kidding, Commander. If only the general were still here, who would dare to let our brothers feed mosquitoes in this smoky land. ”
Of course, Captain Chen knew that what his henchman said was right, but so what?
After the king sat on the throne, the general suddenly disappeared from the capital, and no one knew where he went, not even their group of big-headed soldiers who followed the general to life and death.
Although there have always been rumors among the people that the king was afraid of the general's high achievements and secretly killed him.
But Captain Chen never believed it.
I don't believe that the king who was so good at talking in the army would kill the killer, and I don't believe that the general who had beaten half the world would die so quietly.
In a hurry, Captain Chen did not set up a temporary camp, but only gathered several lieutenants under him on a slightly higher dirt slope as a temporary command center. looked at the mountains under the early sun with a solemn face.
Except for the occasional place or two where he needed to send troops for support, most of the other places were a squad of ten.
For these Jianghu warriors who came here to dream of making a fortune, the captain did not pay attention to it. He didn't even need to command, and his subordinates knew what to do.
Occasionally, if you encounter one or two people with superb martial arts, those few lieutenants who have been drinking and gambling for money in the past few years can also solve it.
The reason why his face is solemn is because of the military order. It seems that the military order did not pass through the post station and reached him directly.
He had long been sure of the authenticity of the military order, but he had always been curious about the origin of the military order.
The person who can put the military order in his study without the knowledge of his personal guards must be not weak.
Even if such a person sneaks into his house and cuts off his head, it is possible.
But such a person, why didn't he send the military order in openly, but sneakily like this?
Is it someone else in his guard?
He is still more at ease with his personal guards, after all, they are all old guys who have been with him for more than ten years. So he prefers the former.
But who is the master of this identity who can't see people?
This point, not only the lieutenant surnamed Chen is curious, but also the lieutenants under him are also curious.
It's just curiosity is curiosity, they don't have the ability to verify it at the moment, so they can only guess in a mess.
It wasn't until a lieutenant who was older than the captain surnamed Chen said a word that they collectively silenced them.
