Chapter 294 Although I have regrets, I have no regrets!
He could not only be a person, but also a trap, waiting for them to jump in.
The little girl recalled what Nianniang and Zhenglu had said in the evening, and she became more concerned.
For a moment, the team stopped here, neither moving forward nor rushing into the forest to check.
Holland's hand rested on the broadsword hanging on the saddle, looking awe-inspiring.
No matter whether it is a human or a ghost, just beat him first!
"Miss, night patrol is important, you take your people and go first..."
Let him see what kind of monster this is.
"no!"
Jiang An refused bluntly.
She pointed to a lieutenant general behind her and gave a decisive order, "Take half of the troops and continue patrolling forward. If there is any abnormality, immediately release a signal smoke!"
The lieutenant general received the order and without any hesitation, he immediately led his men forward.
If it were in the past, he would have worried about the young lady's safety first and advised her to go first...
But at this moment, the young lady is also acting as the head coach!
As a lieutenant general, he must unconditionally obey and trust the commander's orders.
"Scouts, listen to my orders..."
In the team, a soldier who was dressed differently from the other black-armored light cavalry stepped out.
His warhorse was wearing soft armor, which made it lighter and faster.
"Go back to the camp and get some people."
"Yes!"
As they were talking, the cries for help in the darkness came closer.
It can be guessed that the people in the forest are moving in this direction.
Huo Lang squeezed the horse's belly and wanted to move forward to check the situation.
In fact, deep down, no one in this team should want to deal with such weird things at this time.
But they are the Southern Merchants’ army, and their duty is to protect this land and its people.
Even if there is a one percent chance, what if the people crying for help in the woods are his Nan Shang people?
Huo Lang tried to move forward, but was stopped by Jiang An again.
He turned his head to look and saw that the small hand was grabbing the arm guard with strong force, and there was no room for him to break free.
In the darkness, the little girl stared somewhere and whispered, "Four four..."
The "shasha" sound was Jiang Si's response to his master.
With Sisi around, Jiang An felt more at ease...
She repeatedly stopped General Huo from going forward alone because she was always thinking of Madam Huo with her sweet smile in Yufulou and Huo Changming who played with her every day.
Subconsciously, Jiang An didn't want Huo Lang to take any risks.
When she was studying in the north, she almost lost her father, and she didn't want Huo Changming to experience the same thing.
The little girl patted Huo Lang's armor and said with a smile: "General Huo, you will be the last one to come."
Although Huo Lang is a rough guy, the nervousness on the girl's face is too obvious~
He smiled naively and touched the lady's head for the first time.
The big hand brushed, just right~
"Don't worry, young lady. I have been with the prince in battle for many years and have seen all kinds of scenes!"
"How can I let you rush to the front..."
Feeling the warmth on his head, Jiang An blinked his eyes and said, "Then let's... do it together?"
"to make!"
Huo Lang drew out his broadsword and said seriously, "It is my honor to fight alongside you, young lady!"
"it is good!"
The little girl nodded, carrying a red-tasseled spear in one hand, and rushed into the dark forest side by side with a tiger and a horse.
On the other side of Jiang An, there was a shadow following him at a very fast speed in the forest.
They followed the source of the sound and gradually got closer.
Holland: "It's a civilian..."
In the forest with dotted shadows of trees, the light from the torches kept moving, and the sound of swords cutting flesh was so real.
Jiang An looked at the group of people dressed like the bandits she met during the day. There were about sixty or seventy of them. They were riding horses and slaughtering the civilians who were fleeing in panic before them.
She frowned, watched, and talked to Huo Lang, "How could there be such a large number of bandits lurking near the border?"
"No." Huo Lang said firmly.
That's a fraud~
A cold look flashed across the little girl's eyes, and she clenched the gun in her hand tightly.
The bandits were not real bandits, but what about the civilians who were actually killed?
Their clothes and appearance are all like those of southern merchants...
There is no guarantee that the people who set up the trap might have captured civilians from Nan Shang.
Huo Lang called her, his tone a little hesitant, "Miss..."
In fact, the best policy is to ignore it at this time.
The number of people they brought was not enough, and if there were ambushes nearby, they would have to hold on and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
By then, he was afraid that he would not be able to protect the little girl.
"When will the reinforcements arrive?" Jiang An asked.
A young general behind him quickly replied, "One hour."
The little girl turned around and met a pair of bright eyes.
The young general who interrupted General Huo held up his knife and smiled innocently, "I know what the lady is worried about..."
"Since we are wearing military uniforms and receiving military pay, it is our duty to protect the people and the country!"
This was not the first time Jiang An had heard this sentence.
She suddenly felt free and easy, and smiled brightly, "Then what are you waiting for!"
The spear pointed at the ground, and the little girl gave an order, "Save people first, and put yourself first..."
She paused and looked at Holland, "If there are any unusual circumstances, civilians can also be killed."
The white tiger ran forward, and Jiang An crouched on its back, its round eyes gleaming with violence, like an arrow ready to be shot.
Listen to the sound of horse hooves behind you and feel the wind passing by you...
She thinks she is not a kind person and has many selfish desires.
For example, at this moment, she didn't want anyone around her to die for a stranger.
I don’t want the tragic experience of the youngest soldier in the Japanese army to happen again.
But Jiang An also remembered what his father said in front of the Forest of Steles that day.
"The National Protection Army died fighting for the country and the people. Although there are regrets, there is no regret."
As a young lady from the Zhenguo Palace, she has the same responsibilities as the soldiers behind her.
Jiang An is willing to take his own responsibilities!
So, even if it was a trap, she would still rush forward.
The charge at this moment is silent...
To the bandits, they seemed to appear out of nowhere on the opposite side, holding swords and looking imposing.
The white tiger rushed to the front and roared, startling all the horses.
They wanted to escape, but were held down by the reins, so they could only stamp their hooves frantically in an attempt to break free.
At this roar, many bandits fell off their horses.
"Great job, big cat!"
The little girl let out a soft cry and the spear fell out of her hand.
The red tassel moved forward and pierced through the chest of a bandit who was swinging a knife at the old woman.
She jumped up from the tiger's back and reached out to grab the handle of the spear.
As the gun tip twisted, Jiang An bent the gun handle with force and used his legs to hook onto the trunk of a tree.
She raised her eyes and let go...
The bent gun handle rebounded with the internal force and knocked a bandit to the ground.
Jiang An, dressed in red, carried a gun and killed the bandits happily. In his every move, he could see the shadow of Jiang Jichen.
At her side, Jiang Si was like a ghost, ruthlessly breaking the necks of those bastards who wanted to launch a sneak attack and throwing them aside.
Seeing that there was someone guarding Jiang An, Huo Lang wiped the blood splattered on his face and felt relieved.
He shouted to his soldiers: "Save the people first, don't get entangled!"
It was at this time that Holland was not on guard against the civilians.
Beside him, the young man who had been protecting the old woman put his hand into his arms and stared at Huo Lang with a vicious look in his eyes.
