Chapter 19 Heading to Ye County, encountering horse bandits on the road

The next day, morning was just starting to shine.

Two hundred black-armored troops received the order and gathered at the first battalion school yard.

Before setting off, Zhou Shan came to Wu Tong to lead the camp.

"Zhou Shan, I just received a letter sent by the captain of Ye County." Commander Wu said: "A group of horse bandits have recently appeared in Ye County, and many caravans have had their goods robbed. The captain of Ye County has Wei You sent people to encircle and suppress this group of horse bandits, but every time the black armored army left the city to suppress the bandits, this group of bandits seemed to have received the news in advance and disappeared without a trace.

The captain of Ye County suspected that someone in the city was having an affair with the horse bandits and tipped off the bandits. Therefore, every time the Black Armored Army went out to suppress the bandits, they returned without success. The captain of Ye County then wrote a letter asking for help from Qing Dynasty. Yangcheng sent a black armored army to suppress the bandits.

Now that you have formed a bandit suppression team, you will first go to Ye County to eliminate this group of horse bandits.

It would be best to capture the leader of the horse bandits alive and interrogate which force in the county is liaising with the horse bandits. This kind of selfish force that destroys the stability of a county must be resolutely attacked and eradicated by the Black Armored Army. "

"I understand!" Zhou Shan nodded, and then said: "Commander, do you have any other instructions?"

"That's all for now. The bandit suppression team is relatively free. You can make your own decisions about where to suppress bandits. If there are any urgent tasks, I will send someone to inform you." After speaking, Commander Wu waved his hand and said: "Get off!"

"Understood, this subordinate will leave."

Zhou Shan bowed his hands and exited the camp.

Soon, Zhou Shan came to the first battalion school field.

A centurion was responsible for the roll call. After the roll call, he came to Zhou Shan and said in a loud voice: "Master Captain, all the two hundred black-armored troops are here. No one is absent. Please ask for instructions."

"Let's go to Ye County!"

Zhou Shan gave an order.

Two hundred black-armored troops followed him and left the military camp.

Zhou Shan sat down, a monster called a black-scaled horse.

Monsters are beasts that embark on the path of spiritual practice.

To use an analogy, the difference between monsters and beasts is equivalent to warriors among humans.

But it is not an easy task to subdue monsters. They are much more ferocious than wild beasts such as tigers and lions. Only a powerful force like Guiyuan Sect has the strength to train monsters.

However, the number of monsters will not be too many.

Currently, only the military camps in Qingyang County have a certain number of monster mounts.

The black scale horse's whole body is covered by a layer of black scales, as if it is wearing a layer of iron armor. Although it is just an ordinary monster, its strength is equivalent to a third-rate warrior. If they fight, the black scale horse can kick it to death. tiger.

In the Qingyang County military camp, only centurions and above are qualified to equip black scale horses.

The mounts of ordinary black-armored troops are red flame horses with thin monster blood, and their red hair is like flames.

Zhou Shan led two hundred black-armored troops and quickly left Qingyang City.

The black-armored army rushed quickly along the avenue in the direction of Ye County.

After the fall of the Jin Dynasty, all the major forces were attacking each other, and the war was raging, which gave rise to countless bandits. Some refugees could not survive and could only become bandits.

Qingyang City is more stable because there is a large army of black armored troops stationed there, but there is chaos outside Qingyang City.

Zhou Shan had felt this before when he was escorting the ordnance.

However, the mission that time was to escort ordnance, and everything was focused on safety. Therefore, as long as the bandits ran away quickly and far away, the Black Armor Army did not need to pursue these bandits.

But this time is different.

Zhou Shan's mission is to suppress bandits.Therefore, Zhou Shan will naturally not let go of the bandits he encounters on the way to Ye County, especially those who slaughter villages and families and commit numerous crimes. He does not need to take action personally. He only needs to order a centurion to lead forty men. The black armored army is enough to wipe out these ordinary bandits.

After all, there are only a few bandits with top-notch warriors at their command.

When arriving in Ye County, Zhou Shan eliminated more than a dozen groups of bandits, large and small.

The Black Armored Army entered Ye County and advanced along the main road.

Zhou Shan was still thinking about how to find the group of horse bandits, but during the march, he encountered a group of horse bandits besieging the caravan.

The caravan was very large, with hundreds of carts, and each cart was filled with goods. Not counting the horsemen, there were 200 guards alone. The flag raised high read: The word 'Zhang'.

These guards have sophisticated weapons, including not only swords and armor, but also bows and crossbows.

Therefore, this group of horse bandits has not captured the caravan yet and is in the midst of a battle.

"This is the caravan of the Zhang family in Ye County. It seems to be lucky."

Zhou Shan had a smile on his face.

He was worried about how to find the horse bandits. If there was a county-wide manhunt, there would be too much noise, and the horse bandits would probably get wind of it and escape. Unexpectedly, he encountered the horse bandits not long after entering Ye County. .

"All troops charge!"

Zhou Shan gave the order, and the two hundred black armored troops immediately launched a charge.

……

……

"Young Master, we can't take these goods." A middle-aged man dressed as a steward in the Zhang family's caravan said solemnly: "The target of these horse bandits is this batch of goods. If we lead people to break out directly, we should be able to If we leave safely, I don’t expect these horse bandits to dare to continue chasing us, but if we hold on to death, we can only hold on for two quarters of an hour at most, and the family’s reinforcements may not be able to come.”

"Damn it!" The young master of the Zhang family felt aggrieved and said angrily: "How on earth did these bandits know the time and route of our transportation, and set up an ambush on the way to Lushan County instead of Kunyang County? Could it be that in the city? Isn't it possible that the horse bandit's craftsmanship can be accomplished?
In the past half month, our goods have been robbed twice.

If this continues, not only will we not make any money this year, we will even lose money. "

"Hey, let's start the breakout!"

The eldest young master of the Zhang family sighed.

But just as he finished speaking, the ground shook violently.

"Young Master, it's the Black Armor Army!" The middle-aged butler pointed at the horse bandits who suddenly dispersed, and said with a look of surprise: "The Black Armor Army is here, we don't have to break out, and the goods can be saved."

"No, it's the Black Armored Army!"

The leader of the horse bandits suddenly changed his expression when he saw the black torrent rushing towards him in the distance.

The people in Ye County only provided him with the delivery time and route of the Zhang family's caravan, and never mentioned the Black Armored Army at all, so he felt confident and bold enough to plunder the Zhang family's caravan.

Unexpectedly, a group of black-armored troops would suddenly appear.

"Brothers, mount your horses immediately and retreat quickly."

The leader of the horse bandits immediately shouted.

"Hahaha, kill me. The black-armored army is coming. We must not let these horse bandits escape."

Seeing these horse bandits preparing to escape, the eldest young master of the Zhang family laughed loudly. Naturally, he would not let go of this opportunity for revenge, and immediately gave orders to the surrounding guards.

The guards of the Zhang family immediately entangled these horse bandits.
