mage in the late qing dynasty

Chapter 764 I’m not going to lie to you, the insurance team is really fierce.
Several people brought their guns and ammunition, set up their saddles, and left the Hu family's compound.

For Zhao Chuanxin, horses are actually superfluous.

But in order to accommodate the other people, I had no choice but to ride on horseback.

There were five people in the group, including Zhao Chuanxin, Hu Da, Hu Er, Hu Hansan and Xiao Ling'e. Only Peony stayed at home to look after the house.

Although Hu Hansan was young, he also grew up on horseback.

When he rides a horse, Hu Da will never feel that the sky is falling like the parents of later generations did.

When Zhao Chuanxin was in school, he had to go to and from elementary school, middle school and high school by himself.

Later, it gradually got to the point where I couldn’t go to school without anyone to pick me up or drop me off.

They all say that the public security is getting better and better, but for Zhao Chuanxin, it feels like every child is gone if he doesn't pay attention, and it seems like there is chaos everywhere.

Xiao Ling'e and Hu Hansan were at the end, and the three in front were racing and comparing their speeds.

After all, where Zhao Chuanxin's weight lies, Hu Da and Hu Er believe that at least they can steadily outdo Zhao Chuanxin in terms of riding skills, and they are not afraid of him in terms of marksmanship.

But once they started running, they were wrong.

Zhao Chuanxin lowered his body, hugged the horse's neck, and seemed to be whispering to the horse.

The horse under the seat was clearly being ridden by Zhao Chuanxin for the first time, but it was extremely obedient and cooperated closely with Zhao Chuanxin.

It was easy to achieve the state of unity between man and horse.

Hu Da and Hu Er looked at each other.

It's too windy to communicate, but roughly: What's going on?Shouldn't it?
When the horse's speed reached its peak, Zhao Chuanxin even let the smart gyroscope take him slightly into the air, rising and falling with the horse's pace.

Hu Da and Hu Er were dropped instantly.

After running for a while, Zhao Chuanxin's victory was determined and he slowly slowed down.

Because he saw a roe deer.

It is said that outside the pass, roe deer were beaten with sticks and gourds scooped out fish, and pheasants flew into the rice pot.

Many people think that this sentence describes the abundance of products and the wild animals that can be caught freely and everywhere.

Of course...that's right.

But the meaning of beating the roe deer with a stick actually describes the character of the animal, which is relatively silly.

If you hit it with a stick without it noticing you, it will be frightened and run away.

But it couldn't run more than [-] meters, so it had to stop and look back to see which beast had just beaten it...

When it met the knight, it not only did not run away, but turned back to look blankly to see how the two-legged beast was riding behind the four-legged beast - what on earth is going on with Kangkang?

Then more and more people gathered, and the roe deer became a little panicked, but still did not get into the nearby forest.

Hu Er took a look and said: "Okay, it's just a cold day. If you can't finish it, you can save it for a few more days."

After that, he raised his gun and took aim, and he wanted to shoot on horseback.

Compared with pigs, cattle and sheep, are roe deer delicious?There is no conclusion on this matter.

Because roe deer has a lot of lean meat, it is far less fat than pigs, cattle and sheep.

But although roe deer meat is lean, it is more tender than venison.

Zhao Chuanxin had eaten braised roe deer meat. According to him, it was okay to try it for a while, but it would definitely not be acceptable to eat it for a long time.

In fact, Zhao Chuanxin couldn't catch the roe deer without any shortage of food and clothing.

This thing is too cool.

Hu Er didn't know whether it was because he was drunk, tired from riding, or because he couldn't use his new gun well, so the gun went off and missed.

The roe deer turned around and ran away, running for more than ten meters. Perhaps he noticed the heavy movement and the light raindrops, but the group of people did not pursue him, so he stopped and looked back.

Hu Er was furious and pulled the bolt again in embarrassment.

Zhao Chuanxin moved his feet back, pushed the stirrups with his toes, exerted a slight force, and the smart gyroscope "pulled" him up, standing firmly on the horse's back.

Take out the war bow and shoot at the full moon.

Because the bow was too big for mounted shooting, he had to stand up.

It is said that when the Qing Dynasty first took over the Central Plains, there were many people who could pull the ten-power bow.

But by the late Qing Dynasty, it was all over the place, and the five-power bow was all a struggle.

If in the city defense battle of Dagukou, the soldiers led by Seng Gelinqin had the same cavalry and shooting capabilities as when the Eight Banners took control of the Central Plains, they might have severely damaged the British and French coalition forces. In the subsequent Bali Bridge field battle, they might not have Britain and France would see the true spirit of barbarians.

Because the range of a clear bow is really no shorter than that of a foreign gun, or even worse. Of course, that depends on how powerful the bow is.

Instead of the person who was beaten falling on his back.

Zhao Chuanxin's bow-playing skill level is only slightly better than the primary stage, and he needs the powerful computing power of the smart gyroscope to help him calibrate.

whoosh...

An arrow can easily reach a distance of [-] meters.

In front of the roe deer, it penetrated deeply into the soil.

The roe deer was startled, and this time turned around and went straight into the woods.

Hu Er had just pulled the bolt. When he saw this, he was very proud of Zhao Chuanxin and said: "At this distance, my riding and shooting skills are already good."

Especially since Zhao Chuanxin was still exerting force on horseback and his footing was unstable, it was not something ordinary people could do.

Hu Da praised: "What a war bow. Only a true warrior cannot control it."

Real men all use war bows with more than ten powers, which is roughly what it means.

Zhao Chuanxin put away his bow with a smile: "The shot went wrong. I'll go get the arrow."

After saying that, he tapped the horse's back with his heels, and the horse actually turned around and ran in that direction.

And Zhao Chuanxin just stood on the horse, with his feet in front and back.

Hu Er asked: "Brother, can you do it?"

"Yes, but it can't be so easy." Hu Da was a little convinced: "You said that this God of War is indeed worthy of his name. He is extremely powerful, unparalleled in riding and shooting. It is said that his best skill is guns. These are really eighteen kinds of weapons. Proficient in everything…”

Hu Er was somewhat unconvinced. Men won't be convinced easily.

He said: "I was dazzled by drinking and just missed. If I try it again, I will definitely not fail."

At this time, Xiao Ling'e and Hu Hansan also caught up.

Zhao Chuanxin reached the arrow, jumped off his horse, and picked up the heavy arrow.

He doesn't have many arrows, and it's not easy to make them in the traditional way. If you lose one, you'll miss one.

But he found the roe deer at the edge of the woods, still looking at him.

"You are a real bitch. Come here and give you a carrot and a stick."

Zhao Chuanxin took out the radish, cut it into slices, and waved to it.

Under the influence of the Holy Spirit's heart, the roe deer was really not afraid of him and ran over to him, not knowing that people's hearts are sinister.

Don't tell me, the little thing looks quite unique.

While chewing the radish, Zhao Chuanxin touched its head and stopped when he felt it was greasy. He took out a rag and rubbed his palm in disgust.

In the distance, Hu Da took out his telescope.

"Huh?" Hu Da was surprised: "Mr. Zhao..."

Hu Er was curious: "What's going on?"

Hu Da handed him the telescope, and Hu Er took a look: "Huh? Mr. Zhao, he..."

Hu Hansan scratched his head: "Let me see..."

Then there is Xiao Ling'e.

Hu Da said: "Since Mr. Zhao made the roe deer lose its vigilance, why didn't he kill it with a knife?"

But Xiao Ling'e, who was holding a telescope, said, "He hit it with a stick."

Hu Da then showed a smile: "Sure enough."

Little Ling'e added: "After beating the roe deer away, the roe deer came back again. He beat him again, and finally the roe deer escaped into the forest."

Hu Da's smile froze on his face.

Then Zhao Chuanxin came back on horseback.

Hu Da asked: "Mr. Zhao, why don't you hunt that roe deer?"

"Roe deer? What kind of roe deer? Didn't you see it?" Zhao Chuanxin's face was filled with "surprise".

"Forehead……"

"Um……"

Zhao Chuanxin laughed: "Let's go to the front and see if there are any yellow sheep or rabbits."

He has no psychological burden from killing yellow sheep and rabbits.

His character forces him to treat animals and people alike.

The more he resisted, the more excited he became.

If he just stares blankly, he will lose interest.

I hit the roe deer with two sticks to make it remember that the two-legged beast would hurt it and not get close to it in the future.

Everyone continued to move forward, and Hu Er thought to himself: If he encounters prey later, he must kill it with one blow, otherwise Mr. Zhao will let him go again.

He was puzzled as to why a murderous man like Zhao Chuanxin could be lenient to the stupid roe deer.

He didn't understand that Zhao Chuanxin could both lower his eyebrows as a Bodhisattva and glare as a Vajra.

While walking, without seeing the prey, Zhao Chuanxin in front of him suddenly waved his hand.

"What happened to Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Chuanxin took out a cigar and lit it with the Old God's crucible brand.

He smiled and said, "Before we left, didn't we mention the horse bandits?"

Hu Da's temples jumped suddenly: "Is it possible?"

Zhao Chuanxin bit his cigar and said, "You two are here to protect Xiao Ling'e and Hu Hansan. I'll be back soon."

After saying that, he beat the horse and left.

Hu Da and Hu Er quickly shouted: "Mr. Zhao, don't be reckless..."

They really don't know what recklessness is.

He saw Zhao Chuanxin running for tens of meters and shouting: "All those who are ambushing in front, come out. After five breaths, those who don't show up will die." On the road before, a man repairing the roof told him that the grassland There are horse bandits running around, and I heard Mudan mention it again today, but I didn't expect to actually encounter it.

Hu Da and Hu Er were a little anxious.

On the one hand, there are indeed women and children here, and they dare not give it a try.

However, since there are horse bandits, they must be in groups, and it is impossible for one or two people to ambush them.

In the early days, there might have been a single row of horse bandits, but now, there are at least five rows...

Xiao Ling'e said: "Go and help, don't worry about us, I have a gun."

With that said, he took out the mirror box.

Hu Er scolded: "That gun of yours is only suitable for close combat. Put it away. It will be more dangerous if you don't use it."

Xiao Ling'e pouted.

Hu Hansan raised his fist: "I just learned a few tricks from Mr. Zhao, which can also help."

Hu Da scolded: "Have a rest now, the horse bandits are so hungry that they even want to eat babies."

"..."

Zhao Chuanxin shouted, but no one was seen.

Hu Er said: "Maybe Mr. Zhao was wrong. Maybe there is no one around."

Xiao Ling'e said: "Mr. Zhao said there is, then there must be."

These days, trainees don’t pay much attention to how long they practice, nor do they care about puppies. Instead, it’s the real men who attract people, especially on the grassland.

Regardless of whether it's sweet or salty, Xiao Ling'e can count on this bearded man laughing and cursing.

As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the five-breath time had arrived.

I saw Zhao Chuanxin in front taking out the Mosin Nagant and shooting in one direction.

boom.

A scream: "Ah..."

Zhao Chuanxin pulled the reins to turn the horse's head and knocked the horse's belly. The horse ran sideways. Zhao Chuanxin quickly pulled the bolt, leaning his upper body back and tilting the muzzle of the gun slightly.

boom!
"what……"

Another scream.

No matter how hard I hit you, I just asked if you were angry?
Hu Da and Hu Er were both stunned.

Qiucao was also very tall. No one was seen, but two screams were heard in succession.

Hu Da and Hu Er looked ahead in surprise.

They followed Bao Shanyi to suppress bandits across the mountains and ridges, and their eyes were quite vicious, but they didn't realize that there was anyone hiding here.

No matter how tall Zhao Chuanxin is, his vision is not exaggerated. Why can Zhao Chuanxin know it?

What's even more outrageous is that if Zhao Chuanxin couldn't see anyone, how could he accurately attack the hidden horse bandits?

Sure enough, the man called the "God of War" must have his own unique abilities.

At this time, gunfire broke out.

The four of them finally figured out where they were hiding through the smoke rising from the grass.

Zhao Chuanxin suddenly fell off his horse.

Xiao Ling'e exclaimed, thinking that Zhao Chuanxin had been shot.

Of course Zhao Chuanxin was not hit. He patted the horse's butt and the horse ran away.

He stepped on the Misty Traveler and replaced Mosin Nagant with the Thirteen Taibao.

Quickly press down on the lever to fire.

bang bang bang...

The Thirteen Taibao rapid fire is much faster than the Mosin Nagant, but the power and range are not as good as the Shui Lian Zhu.

But the presence of Misty Traveler made up for the lack of distance, and he bowed slightly, which was equivalent to hiding.

Hu Da listened carefully.

Three screams, four, five, six...

Finally, six horses emerged from behind a small forest.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the six horse bandits were ready to mount their horses and flee.

As soon as they came out of the woods, Zhao Chuanxin had already arrived.

He jumped up suddenly and jumped more than three meters high.

A horse bandit was so dumbfounded that he forgot to raise his gun to fight back.

Zhao Chuanxin turned in the air, and the gray cutter swung half a circle, puff...

The horse bandit's body and head were separated.

Hu Da, Hu Er, Xiao Ling'e and Hu Hansan in the distance exclaimed.

When I watched Zhao Chuanxin use the ax before, I just felt that he was very powerful. Now when he actually used it, he realized how shocking and tragic the scene was.

When Zhao Chuanxin landed, he took advantage of the situation and threw out the gray cutter.

The giant ax whirled, and the ax blade embedded itself in the chest of another horse bandit, who died immediately.

Two people were killed in the blink of an eye, and the remaining four people had already reacted and raised their guns to shoot.

Zhao Chuanxin bent his knees and took off, just as the bullet missed.

He jumped five meters high, with his legs facing up and his head facing down. He held a Lugang M1907 in each hand and fired continuously downwards.

Hey, hey, hey.

Not a bullet was wasted, no horses were accidentally injured, and all three were killed.

The only person left should be the bandit leader in terms of demeanor and appearance.

Zhao Chuanxin landed right on top of his head.

When he was about to land, the bandit leader was still pulling on the bolt, but Zhao Chuanxin grabbed him off his horse and hung one foot on the stirrup.

The horse was frightened and jumped forward.

But Zhao Chuanxin's strength should not be underestimated.

One man and one horse pulled it off.

click...

Perhaps the bandit leader's ankles were torn off by both men and horses, and he howled hysterically.

But it also took his ankle out of the stirrup.

"what……"

Zhao Chuanxin used his vocal organ to transmit the message: "Clean the battlefield and gather the horses."

Only then did the four people run over.

They have no doubts about Zhao Chuanxin's judgment.

Zhao Chuanxin threw the bandit leader under a birch tree.

The bandit leader looked at Zhao Chuanxin in horror: "I am a ground dragon, and I am following Yashi to cause trouble. Why don't you report me and head on?"

He never expected that someone could see through their hiding place and predict their bullets in advance. This is unscientific...

One to many, one jump of three to five meters, this was beyond his knowledge.

The so-called "reporting head on" is a slang in the green forest, which means that if Zhao Chuan pays for his skills, he may be able to escape the disaster if the two parties are entangled and implicated.

Zhao Chuanxin reached out and turned the Dragon Capturing Ring, and the gray cutter embedded in the chest of a bandit flew over and fell into his palm.

This startled the Grounder.

Zhao Chuanxin held a cigar in his mouth, bared his teeth while carrying the gray cutter and said, "Tell me about Ya Shi. What heroic deeds has he done?"

When the ground dragon heard this, he thought it was interesting.

So what are you waiting for?

Immediately he started talking nonsense.

"Your Excellency Haojiao knows that the imperial court is unethical and has excessive land reclamation, which has caused the displacement of herdsmen. There are many good men on the grassland, so they have risen up. There are Baiyin Tusi in Guoerluo Siqian Banner, and Baiyin Da in Zhangwu County. Lai, ZZTQ has Chuoke Dalai, KEQYYQQ's Yashi, Ordo-Sizuoqian Banner's Danbei'er, Taoke Taohu, Curly Pig Tiezi, Black Tiger Department, Batalcang..."

This rolling dragon wants to name everyone he knows, for fear that just one tooth won't be enough.

Come to think of it, maybe he has seen a few of them, but most of them he didn't recognize, and they just kept praising his face.

In fact, some people were already dead at this time, but the ground dragon still reported their names and wanted to borrow the glory of the dead.

After talking nonsense for a long time, they started to boast about their achievements: "Your Majesty, I would like to teach you that we have defeated the Qing soldiers and the Mongolian soldiers many times. Our morale is high and our troops are well-fed! If it weren't for Zhang Zuo-Lin Gouri who led the troops to suppress us, No one could do anything to stop me from waiting. At first, the man named Zhang just relied on his large number of people. He led more than 2000 people from the fifth battalion of horse and infantry. He had to protect the grain road and disperse his troops to deploy defenses. The advantage was gone. But the man named Zhang was more powerful than the monkey. He started to concentrate his troops and set up camp step by step, regardless of casualties. He had more ammunition and more people than us. He didn't even need supplies behind him. He robbed the local people at any time and killed us. He could only be tired of fighting at any time, leading to being killed and dispersed. Already..."

Boss Zhang outside Guanwai is actually very smart, very smart in fighting, and very ruthless.

If he wasn't smart enough, he wouldn't have been able to go from being a small insurance captain to finally separatist power. There were a lot of swords and swords in those decades.

In fact, Zhao Chuanxin was not very interested in the battle between them, but he at least wanted to know what major events had happened outside Guan while he was away.

Sure enough, Gundilong next talked about the aspects that Zhao Chuanxin was interested in.

He said: "We followed Yash, raided and fled all the way, and separated and combined with Taoke Taohu and other departments. The truth and falsehood were uncertain. The man named Zhang had no choice but to help us. We just arrived at a place called Lugang Town, and we plundered When the local people were carrying supplies, they were broken up by a group of people who were more fierce than the bandits and more difficult to deal with than Zhang's tribe..."

Whenever Yashi and Taoketaohu pass by any grassland, the herdsmen will take the initiative to help them and are very cooperative.

But within a hundred and fifty miles of Lugang Town, it didn't work.

Who do the people recognize you? You open and shut your mouth to ask for food. Why is your face so big?
Of course these horse bandits like Yashi are not good guys, they just want to rob.

ho...

Stirring a hornet's nest directly!
Ground Dragon was still frightened, with a look of sadness on his face: "That group of people is said to be called the Lugang Town Insurance Team. They are really fierce. They are not afraid of death, and their marksmanship is like a god. They are all sharpshooters, and their riding skills are less than mine." Many tricks, everything else is the same, one person and three riders. There are hundreds of them, chasing hundreds of us and fighting fiercely. If we hadn't divided into dozens of groups, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to escape..."

Zhao Chuanxin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Ground Dragon thought he didn't believe it, so he frowned and emphasized: "Don't believe it, Your Excellency. That group of people fought with us and killed more than 100 of us, with only a few casualties. Their horses were extremely tall and extremely fast, but they only traveled a long distance. Their ability to run is weaker. They are equipped with both long guns and short cannons, each equipped with a fast gun, each with a double-machine short box cannon, and also equipped with a short ax or a saber hung on the saddle. The most terrifying one is A gun that sweeps away a large area can fire continuously..."

Sweeping a large area, it is the Winchester M1897, the so-called trench broom.

At this time, behind Zhao Chuanxin, Hu Er, who had finished combing the battlefield, came over. After listening for a long time, he couldn't help but interrupt: "How can He Fangsheng be so great? Foreigners have never had such sophisticated equipment..."

Zhao Chuanxin bared his teeth and turned back: "..."
