Chapter 162 Suppressing Bandits (2)
Chapter 162 Suppressing Bandits (2)
In fact, when a team of ten scouts encountered a situation, they should have returned to the camp to report and then sent troops to suppress the bandits.
But if they returned to the camp and sent out another attack, the bandits would have already burned and killed everyone in Shili Village during this period of time.
When they decided to resist, they were ready to die...
Even if I die, I must try to save the people!
Jiang Jichen looked at the little girl's clear round eyes and suddenly remembered the determined expression on her face when she said she wanted to learn martial arts.
His Ah An holds everyone he has ever met in his heart...
Jiang Jichen: "Okay, you go in Dad's place."
Do what you want to do and protect who you want to protect.
He pushed his daughter to Xie Yunshan's side and said, "Take good care of her."
General Xie took Jiang An's hand and lowered his head, "Don't worry, I will definitely take care of it!"
"Let's go~"
Watching the dashing girl walk away, Jiang Jichen called out softly, "Jiang Jiu."
The ghostly secret guard knelt on one knee in front of his master, quietly waiting for orders.
"Follow An."
"Yes."
Hu Yan sighed, "An An has Jiang Si and Niang Niang by her side, so there's no need for Jiang Jiu."
"If you were worried, why did you let her take the risk?"
Jiang Jichen stood in front of the tent, a smile on his face, and said in a fatherly tone with helplessness and pride: "I can't stop her..."
"She will grow up eventually, and she will always have things she likes."
All he had to do was to watch and protect...
……
In the martial arts training ground, Jiang An picked up a spear from the ground.
She weighed it. Too light! Too long!
Doesn't work!
The little girl was sandwiched between Huo Lang and Xie Yunshan, looking at the four thousand soldiers below the stage.
Their eyes were burning with excitement, and they did not look down on her at all because she was still a little girl. Instead, they were even more excited to be able to fight with a young lady.
Huo Lang and Xie Yunshan looked at each other, drew their swords, and said, "Move!"
Four thousand soldiers responded in unison, "Yes!"
Jiang An held his spear to the ground, his expression fierce, and as everyone shouted, he raised his voice in a childish tone, "Fuck him!"
The soldiers in the front row's eyes lit up and they echoed the words until the entire team ran off the track...
Xie Yunshan covered his face, wishing he could dig a hole to hide himself in.
Sure enough, when you get close to this little ball, everything will become weird.
It took no more than an hour from the transfer of camp to the departure, and they were already out of the camp gate.
In the front of the whole team were Huo Lang and Xie Yunshan, followed by Meng Buren. Nianniang was also on horseback, riding with the young lady.
After the two thousand cavalry came the infantry. The army was mighty and charged forward with all their might, raising yellow sand everywhere they passed...
Shili Village,
This place is only ten miles away from the junction of the three kingdoms, so it is called Shili Village. There are no more than fifty households in the village.
When Jiang An and his companions arrived here, Shili Village could no longer be seen in its original appearance.
The doors of every household were wide open, the house was in a mess, and the green vegetable trellises in the yard had fallen over...
There were bloodstains and crawling corpses everywhere in the village. At the entrance of the village, Xie Yunshan and his men found the bodies of several scouts.
They were chopped up beyond recognition and it was impossible to tell who was who.
Xie Yunshan stood there, looking stern.
He did not let Jiang An get close to him. He ordered people to carry the scout's body on a stretcher, cover it with a white cloth and place it somewhere.
Xie Yunshan picked up the arm guard that fell on the ground.
The arm guard was stained with blood and engraved with the emblem of the Royal Guard. This should have been carved by the scout himself. The craftsmanship was not good, and it was crooked...
He wiped it clean with his robe and placed it gently on the white cloth.
"Leave a hundred men behind to search the village and deal with the bodies of the civilians."
"Yes!"
He took a last look at the horseshoe prints and drag marks left by the bandits, then turned and left.
Huo Lang leaned forward on the horse, "How is it?"
Xie Yunshan: "We found the horseshoe prints. Just like what the youngest said, they went to the northeast."
Northeast direction…
Huo Lang was very familiar with this area. He frowned and thought seriously.
"We have to bypass Shili Village and cannot enter the village..."
"Holland?"
"Fool!"
After getting on the horse, Xie Yunshan kicked Huo Lang and said, "What are you thinking about?"
Huo Lang controlled the horse and shook his head, "It's okay, let's go."
The northwest was once a major battlefield for fighting against Dongli. Xie Yunshan was still in Kyoto at the time and didn’t know about it, but he had participated in that battle and was very clear about all the details…
The wind blew across his cheeks, and the extremely fast speed made Holland's mind clearer.
The assassin who suddenly appeared during the competition at Shangyuan Martial Arts Arena, and the bandits who fled to the northeast...
When it comes to Jiang An, he has to think more.
Huo Lang tightened the reins and turned to approach Meng Buren.
"Meng Bu Ren, if something unexpected happens later, you take An An and leave quickly, do you hear me?"
Meng Bu Ren frowned and turned his head to talk to him in a low voice, "This is the border between two countries. No matter how powerful Princess Dongli is, she can't send too many troops..."
"We have two Class A battalions, so we don't have to worry too much."
After all, the two countries had already ceased fighting, and Princess Dongli could only hide in the corner like a mouse and do some small actions.
What she wants is power over everyone else, not to be despised by everyone and have her name recorded in history books.
Huo Lang raised his eyes and looked into the distance, "I hope so."
Who can guess what's in the mind of that crazy woman?
The team marched for about an incense stick of time before a chasm appeared in front of them.
This natural barrier is like a mountain that has been cut in half by an axe, with two towering cliffs blocking out the scorching sun.
Xie Yunshan squeezed his horse's belly and raised his hand to signal the team to stop.
He leaned forward to look at the marks on the ground.
The bandits didn't seem to have made it through the chasm...
Huo Lang looked at the mountain walls on both sides of the chasm. "Three miles beyond the chasm is the Dongli territory. These bandits will not cross the chasm."
Jiang An pointed to the right side of the mountain wall and said, "There are people living there..."
And looking from her direction, she could clearly see a path trampled by people.
However, the grass roots on the path were still there, which showed that they would not be stationed here for long.
Xie Yunshan raised his head and smiled ostentatiously, let’s see where you can run!
After discussing with Huo Lang, he decided to leave half of his men at the foot of the mountain to guard, while the other half went up the mountain.
The cavalry dismounted and handed their horses to their brothers who stayed at the foot of the mountain.
Xie Yunshan and Meng Buren couldn't bear to go up the mountain, while Huo Lang stayed at the foot of the mountain.
Jiang An naturally had to follow them up the mountain. She carried the spear on her shoulder and walked in front.
Before leaving, Huo Lang smiled evilly and bumped into General Xie's shoulder, "I'll give you a surprise..."
Xie Yunshan:?
He rolled his eyes, sick.
Huo Lang smiled and said nothing. He would know who was sick soon.
Meng Bu Ren is a madman who can't be pulled back from the fight!
