Although Li Zheng is the guard of the caravan, when facing the horse thief, Li Zheng will not easily fight the horse thief. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

It's not that Li Zheng is afraid of horse thieves, but Li Zheng is also a veteran of the border army, so he has naturally experienced too many things of life and death, and he doesn't have much fear. It's just that there are a large number of horse thieves in this Wangshan Plain, and although they are in competition with each other, they are also intertwined.

In such a situation, it is naturally easy to kill a horse thief, but it is a big trouble to face more and more powerful horse thieves in retaliation.

Therefore, as the leader of the caravan's guards, Li Zheng's primary purpose is to avoid encountering horse thieves, and if he can't meet horse thieves, there will naturally be no danger and no loss. It's just that there are as many horse thieves in Wangshan Plain, and it is naturally too difficult to achieve this.

If it really can't be compared, then Li Zheng naturally can only retreat to the second, seeking to reduce the loss as much as possible through his connections and skills when encountering horse thieves. This is not only what Li Zheng, the leader of the guards, has planned, but even the businessmen and businessmen who are accustomed to walking in the Wangshan Plain are also mentally prepared for this.

After all, the possibility of a group of horse thieves not being able to meet a group of horse thieves is too small and too small.

As for the fact that ordinary people think that the caravan guards should fight to the death with the horse thieves who come to plunder, it is not nothing, but under normal circumstances, if they can not do it, Li Zheng will choose not to do it.

It's just that there are no absolutes in the world, if you meet a horse thief's appetite is too big, or if the horse thief is unruly and wants not only money but also life, then Li Zheng, as a guard, will naturally do it.

At this moment, under Xiao Suifeng's reminder, Li Zheng found the traces of the horse thief, and his heart immediately tightened, and when he turned around, he beckoned the rest of the guards and the entire caravan to get ready.

Although Li Zheng is reluctant to fight the horse thief, the defensive posture and corresponding preparation are still needed, and this is what Li Zheng is good at.

Although the owner of the caravan was not the first to take this trade route, he was still extremely nervous after hearing that he might be targeted by horse thieves, and Li Zheng didn't care what his mood was, he directly took over the control of the entire caravan and arranged it.

The tent prepared to prevent wind and rain had just been set up, and Li Zheng directly asked everyone to store all the goods on the cart into the tent, and then connected the cart end to end and formed a circle, enclosing the tent and the people of the caravan in a circle.

This method is not very special, nor is it very clever, but it can be seen that Li Zheng's experience.

The horse thieves' greatest reliance is not their force, but their maneuver and speed on horseback, coming and going like the wind. And these carts connected from end to end, although they don't have much protection, but they can limit the mobility of horse thieves and prevent those horse thieves from directly riding their horses to kill them.

In the circle surrounded by the cart, the most central part was naturally the caravan leader and some chariotemen and servants who were underground, while Li Zheng and those guards were all behind the cart, holding strong bows and crossbows, waiting for the arrival of the horse thief.

In the hinterland of Middle-earth, strong bows and crossbows are forbidden weapons, and even Jianghu people will not blatantly hold them in their hands, but in this place, naturally there is not so much attention. And the long-range lethal power of the strong bow and hard crossbow is naturally a great threat to horse thieves who dare to approach.

Li Zheng's arrangement can be described as heavily guarded, as if he is going to fight fiercely with horse thieves. However, in fact, Li Zheng's idea of avoiding fighting horse thieves has not changed.

And the reason why I don't know so much is to prevent the third possibility, that is, to encounter unruly horse thieves or horse thieves with too much appetite. And this second purpose is naturally to let the horse thieves see their own preparation and strength, and let the horse thieves know that their caravan is not easy to gnaw, so it is good that the two sides are not ready to move, and when negotiating, reduce the loss of the caravan.

Xiao Suifeng silently looked at Li Zheng's command and arrangement, and only waited for Li Zheng to make arrangements before he asked, "Brother Li, could those horse thieves be the black fox's people?"

Li was standing on the low hill and looking into the distance, and the horse thief sentry that had been looming before had disappeared. Of course, this is extremely unlikely, and the most likely is that the sentry has been hiding, waiting for the arrival of a large army of horse thieves, and then hunting their caravan together.

With a silent sigh in his heart, Li Zheng opened his mouth and said, "In terms of distance, we are already in the black fox's sphere of influence, but the horse thief forces in this Wangshan Plain are already staggered and horizontal, and it is not clear, so whether it is the black fox that is staring at us at the moment or not, we will not know until they really come." Most likely, though, it's the Black Fox. ”

Xiao Suifeng nodded silently and looked up at the sky, "Look at the sky, it should be about to rain." ”

Li Zheng nodded, "Come on, this rain is a good thing for our caravan." Although a rainstorm is not enough to make the horse thieves give up the raid, the heavy rain hurts the horses, and the grassland is also very muddy after the rain, which is not a happy thing for horse thieves who win with maneuver and speed, so it is beneficial for us to fight and talk about it in the end. It's just that after this horse thief, it is also difficult for us to get on the road. ”

Although Li Zheng was well-prepared and full of vigilance, it could be seen from this tone that he was not particularly worried about the encounter with the horse thief this time.

Although Xiao Suifeng's purpose was to find the horse thief black fox, since he was mixed into this caravan, if he needed his help when the horse thief attacked, he would naturally still help. As for whether the road after the horse thief is difficult, Xiao Suifeng naturally doesn't care.

Thinking like this, Xiao Suifeng nodded casually, and said no more.

The two of them were silent for a while, and it was only too long, and when the sky was completely dark, it was almost as if the night had come in advance, and the sky was full of dark clouds. Soon after, a muffled thunderclap was heard, and heavy rain poured down.

And in this Wangshan Plain, the change of the weather, is really like a child's face, the heavy rain comes fast and fierce, but it goes very fast, but half an hour of effort, after leaving a place of mud, there is rain to stop and the clouds disperse, and the clear sky reappears.
