Chapter 1438: Great Victory
Ouch, ouch, ouch!
The bandits rushed down the hills on both sides, howling like wolves, coupled with the sound of galloping hooves and the neighing of horses, their posture was very intimidating.
The person leading the troops today is none other than half of the Yongtai Prefecture army led by Vice General Xue.
Because General Fan fell, the troops he brought out were divided between him and Deputy General Fang.
As Vice General Fang has been quite prominent in the past two days, Vice General Xue was a little unconvinced, so he said that today he would lead his troops in front to explore the way for everyone.
When Lieutenant General Xue saw the bandits rushing down, he immediately shouted: "Arrange the shield soldiers to stop them! The archers are ready and fire arrows!"
The soldiers immediately moved into action. The shield soldiers lined up and built two shield walls on both sides. The archers stood behind the shield soldiers, unfurled their bows, nocked arrows, and aimed to shoot.
Swish swish swish!
The sharp arrows shot through the wind and hit several bandits on horseback.
The bandits screamed and rolled off their horses.
The soldiers were very excited when they saw this.
Vice General Xue shouted again: "Get ready, shoot the arrow!"
Swish swish swish!
Bows and arrows rained down, and more than a dozen bandits were shot down.
"Hurry! Shoot again!" Vice General Xue shouted as he looked at the bandit who was about to rush towards him.
The archer's hands were shaking a little. He hurriedly nocked an arrow and fired another round of arrows. After shooting down a few bandits again, the bandits suddenly became confused and shouted: "Boss, it's a thorn in the head, I'm afraid Cant eat it? What the hell?!
At this time, some bandits had already attacked the hillside and were slashing at the shield soldiers with their swords. Seeing that a fierce battle was about to start, the bandit boss shouted: "Taiqiaoya, retreat!"
After speaking, he shot down a bandit and ran away on horseback.
When the other bandits saw this, they hurriedly said: "Retreat, retreat quickly, there are soldiers coming from behind!"
As soon as these words came out, the other bandits panicked and started to grab the horses one after another. Those who couldn't grab the horses ran towards the hillside on two legs.
Vice General Xue was so happy that he rode his horse and led the soldiers to chase him: "Listen to my order, rush forward and kill these bandits!"
"Yes!" The soldiers' morale was also boosted. After hearing this, they hurriedly chased towards the hillside. However, the bandits were obviously familiar with the terrain here. Deputy Xue chased them for two quarters of an hour, completely chasing the bandits. They were lost in pursuit and only killed a few bandits.
With no choice but to lead the troops back.
Vice General Fang has arrived with the army behind him and is cleaning the "battlefield". He has obtained three horses, more than a dozen swords, bows and axes, and thirteen bandit corpses. In addition to the eight corpses brought back by Vice General Xue, a total of Twenty-one bandits were killed.
This result is quite good, everyone is overjoyed.
Deputy General Fang said: "Vice-General Xue is very powerful. He killed twenty-one bandits in just a few quarters of time and got three horses. This can be regarded as a favor for our westbound army."
Vice General Xue was extremely happy in his heart, but he said on his face: "Hey, I just killed a few bandits, it's nothing."
He sighed again: "Originally, I wanted to chase them and destroy their lair, but those bandits were familiar with the terrain and ran too fast and couldn't catch up. It's really annoying."
Deputy General Fang said: "It's good to be able to kill twenty-one, and I also got three horses. These horses are a treasure for us soldiers."
With these words, Vice General Xue Neng didnt say anything and immediately pointed to a group of **** horses and said: "Vice General Fang has been working hard recently. These black horses are good. I will give them to Vice General Fang. Dont be polite to me!"
Things seized belong to oneself and shall be distributed by oneself. Vice General Fang didn't want to have any conflict with Vice General Xue, so he accepted it: "Thank you, Brother Xue."
It was a change of title, and it suddenly became closer.
Hahaha, what can I say thank you for? We are brothers from the same camp. Vice General Xue laughed and gave five more swords to Vice General Fang.
As for the other hundred households, they were given some feather arrows and axes. Although there were not many things, they were still very happy because the soldiers who accompanied them had "won the battle".
How should these corpses be disposed of? Hundreds of households asked Lieutenant General Xue.
Vice General Xue thought for a while and said: "There are many bandits on the road, so chop off the heads and pile them up in the capital."
Pile the heads of the Jingguan?! Deputy General Fang was a little shocked. The so-called Jingguan means cutting off the enemys heads and piling them into a hill on the roadside to act as a deterrent to the enemy.
However, this was the practice during the chaos at the end of the previous dynasty. After the establishment of Da Chu, there were no crowds in Jingguan. After all, this was a bit unethical in a non-war era.
Vice General Xue said: "These are bandits. They have killed many innocent people. It is an advantage for them to use them to crowd the capital. Brother Fang does not need to feel that it is against the harmony of nature."
Since Vice General Xue said so, Vice General Fang naturally would not say anything more and only said: "Just do what Brother Xue said."
So Lieutenant General Xue asked his men to cut off the heads of the bandits and pile them up in Jingguan.
The soldiers in Yongtai Prefecture are okay. Where have the soldiers in the south seen such a posture? They were all so frightened that some even vomited.
Upon seeing this, Vice General Xue said: "You are so useless, where are you now? You have to get used to it quickly, otherwise when you face the Rong people, you will not be an opponent at all! The Rong people are more ferocious than us. If there are too many, they are feeding on children!
Deputy General Fang also took the opportunity to tell the soldiers in the south about the brutality of the Rong people, which frightened several soldiers.
One of the soldiers led by Lu Chong fainted. Lu Chong felt very embarrassed and punished the soldier.
Sitting in the mule cart, Mr. Cen sneered silently. Lu Chong, a loser, has the nerve to talk about his own soldiers? He himself turned pale with fright, and he was not as courageous as she was.
This is not a boast, Mr. Cen is indeed very courageous, even when he saw the soldiers chopping off the heads of the bandits, he did not change his color.
Ji Zhenniang, however, was trembling with fear. She sat in the carriage, holding Qing Hui's arm, and asked Gu Jinli: "He, he, they really chopped off the bandit's head... piled them up?!"
Gu Jinli nodded: "Yes, can this be said to be a joke?"
"Ouch!" After hearing this, Ji Zhenniang screamed, rolled her eyes, and fainted.
Gu Jinli:
You are so useless.
"Madam, madam, are you okay?" Xie Huaihua was finally able to accompany Ji Zhenniang today. She wanted to perform well. Seeing that Ji Zhenniang fainted, she was very anxious and hurriedly said to Qing Hui: "Miss Qing Hui, please help me quickly. My wife."
Qing Hui looked at Gu Jinli and asked, "Madam?"
Gu Jinli nodded: "Rescue her, you have to let her see the cruelty along the way."
Yes. Qinghui woke up Ji Zhenniang with just two needles.
Ji Zhenniang cried when she woke up: "Oh, oh, oh, oh, I don't want to go to the northwest, I want to go home."
"Why are you going back? You've already reached Bailang County. Who has time to take you back now? Even if someone takes you back, it's hard for you to get home safely. The bandits here would even dare to rob the army." Gu Jinli He was scaring Ji Zhenniang: "Don't cry. If those bandits hear a woman crying, they will kidnap you at night."
