No wonder he has such an expression. Due to the oppression of the two great powers in the southeast peninsula, except for the local pony horses that are only used to carry loads, there are not many horses that can charge forward. Therefore, in the southeast peninsula, cavalry is equal to the ultimate power.

The indifferent young man shook his head and said, "Although it's a pity, but such guys who don't obey orders, let them fend for themselves."

After calming down, the thin boy hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Third Uncle, how many cavalry can the nobles of the August Empire usually have?"

"There is no limit, as long as you have money and horses, you can raise as many cavalry as you want, because as long as these cavalry are slaves, no one will care about them at all," said the indifferent young man.

"Then third uncle, how many cavalry can there be in this place?" The boy looked around nervously.

At this moment, their group of rogues had rushed across the beach, and rushed into the woods quickly.

"Looking at the pier made of wood, you can tell that this is not a big nobleman, there are at most a hundred cavalry."

The indifferent young man said casually.

"One hundred cavalry? We people should be able to kill them?" the boy asked again.

"Surround them in the forest. If one-third of us die, we should be able to kill them. If we are on flat ground, it would be great if we can drive them away." The indifferent young man said bitterly.

The cavalry is the most powerful fighting force in this era, and the infantry can only accept the massacre of the cavalry in the open ground, and has no resistance at all.

When the young man wanted to ask something, a swish, swish, swish sound came from a distance. The people in front didn't hear it at all, and continued to rush forward, while the people behind who heard the sound turned their heads and looked around. When nearly a hundred cavalry rushed out of the jungle, everyone was dumbfounded.

The indifferent young man was the first to wake up and shouted loudly, "Go into the jungle!"

The others are all smart people, only the idiot infantry will fight the cavalry on the endless beach, and now the only thing that can offset the combat effectiveness of the cavalry is the terrain.So all of a sudden, these rogues in the back row screamed, kicked off their feet and chased after their companions in front.

Lao Dao, who brought his subordinates to monitor these rogues, originally wanted to go back and report when he saw the rogues coming ashore, but the prisoner who stayed to monitor them because he saw the rogues were clever, reminded Lao Dao to burn the fishing boats of these rogues.

The habit of fighting on the grasslands made the shepherd's flag soldiers have a few rockets in their quiver, so with a wave of his hand, Lao Dao led his men back to the side, waiting to set fire to the fishing boat and cut off the retreat of the rogues.

Lao Dao raised his hand, and a hundred cavalrymen had already put the burning rockets on their bows, waiting for an order to set the dozens of fishing boats on fire.

Although a hundred rockets are a little short, who told the rogues to go ashore without leaving any left behind?

No one put out the fire, even a rocket fired from a ship was enough to burn the ship.

Just as he gave the order to launch, the prisoner stopped Lao Dao again.

"My lord, look at the appearance of these gangsters. They dare not rush to the beach to fight with your cavalry. Why don't we stay here and burn the boat when they retreat and we can't stand it? If Zhao Hu If the adults defeat them directly, then we will have so many ships at once."

Although Lao Dao doesn't have much knowledge, he can still tell the good from the bad.Although a hundred cavalry is terrifying to face more than 2000 infantry, after all cavalry can only be effective when they charge.But thinking of being able to capture these dozens of fishing boats, no matter what, it is a great achievement.

Anyway, if those rogues dared to attack, they would just burn the boat with a torch and slap their ass and leave.

Thinking of this, Lao Dao waved his hand immediately.

"Go to the five captains and lead people to gather up these broken boats, and it will be easier to burn them later!"

"Third Uncle, they want to seize our warship!" The boy shouted in a panic when he turned his head and saw the cavalry dismounted to gather up the fishing boat.

"Don't worry about it, just keep up." The indifferent young man just turned his head and took a look, before rushing forward in a cold voice.

The young man froze for a moment, seeing that the people around him did not stop and continued to shuttle through the forest, he couldn't help but asked in confusion, "Third Uncle, why didn't we take the warship back? They only have a hundred cavalry! And if they burn the boat, how do we get back?"

The indifferent young man said in a deep voice: "We are only the vanguard, and there are still a large number of people behind, and as long as we rob property, people who hear the news will naturally flock to it, and in addition, we are all good at making waves. A little distance is not a problem at all, so we don't have to care about the problem of warships at all.

"Why didn't you attack these one hundred cavalrymen? Think about what I said just now, don't forget that we are a mob, and who is willing to give up their belongings to fight these freely assembled cavalrymen?"

Hearing this, the boy thought for a while, and then a worried look appeared on his face.Uncle San, since the owner of this place can send a hundred cavalry to cut off our retreat, there must be stronger enemies ahead. Uncle San, are we really here to rob the property that makes the village live? ? "

When the young man said this, his expression became heavy, and the dozen or so cronies who followed the young man immediately subconsciously guarded their surroundings vigilantly.

The indifferent young man froze for the first time, then touched the boy's head with a smile for the first time, and said with relief: "Very good, being able to see the overall situation from these details shows that you have made progress."

The boy didn't speak, but just looked at the indifferent young man quietly.

The indifferent young man knew that this young man needed an answer. Looking at the somewhat dense jungle, he sighed and said, "What do you think is needed to revitalize my family?"

Maybe the young man thought about this question countless times before blurting out: "A piece of fertile land, loyal and capable retainers, and an extremely powerful army!"

"Can we have these three conditions?" the indifferent young man said expressionlessly.

The boy's excited expression disappeared immediately, and he shook his head desolately.

"How can we, who can only nest in the mountains and rack our brains for rations, revitalize our family? There is only one way now, to take refuge in a powerful force." The indifferent young man said in a heavy tone.

"Third Uncle, Mingyue City is surrounded by our enemies, who can we turn to?" The young man was very puzzled.

Could it be that he took refuge in a force far away from Mingyue City?So when and what month will he be able to return to Mingyue City?
As for the matter of taking refuge in other forces, the young man doesn't care, or people in the southeast peninsula don't care, as long as the family exists, anyone can take refuge in it.

As soon as the young man finished speaking, he suddenly came to his senses and said, "Take refuge in the Augustus Empire! Does Third Uncle have such a connection?"

He is now a little excited again. In the eyes of people on the southeast peninsula, the Augustus Empire is the dazzling sun in the sky. Thinking about the places where the powerful princes have worked hard all their lives to achieve the ambition of unification, it is not as good as a province of the other party. Know how powerful the Augustus Empire is.

The indifferent young man smiled wryly and said, "How is this possible? We are not even a gang of thieves in the hearts of the dignitaries of the Augustus Empire. How could we accept our support? My target is the dignitaries in the coastal area."

The young man thought for a while, then asked again: "Third Uncle, how is the owner of this land?"

"We must first look at the strength of this person, and at the same time, we must also look at whether the other party accepts us, so don't think about it, all this is only possible if we fight the enemy bravely on the battlefield and survive."

The indifferent young man stopped talking after he finished speaking, because the bandits in front had already cheered, indicating that they had seen the town.

Zhao Hu led hundreds of cavalry, silently watching the rogues roaring out of a jungle in the distance.

Looking at these rogues, for some reason, Zhao Hu felt as if he was looking at a group of ants.

Zhao Hu drew his bow and patted his horse, shouted loudly, and rushed towards the bandits screaming like arrows, and the hundreds of servants behind Zhao Hu also shouted loudly, from standing still to galloping in just an instant .

The rogue who had just rushed out of the jungle, when he saw the vast and magnificent town on a wide flat land in the distance, his eyes immediately turned red with excitement.

If it was a town built of stones, they would consider the cost of conquering such a town, but it was just a town surrounded by wooden fences, which was not in their eyes at all, so they rushed forward excitedly at the first time.

But they didn't get excited for long, they all stopped in unison, and stared at the scene in front of them in a daze.

I saw one after another of black shadows rushing out of the wooden fence quickly, and then these black shadows rushed over in a row. The roar and fast speed all showed the identity of the opponent - cavalry!
The rogues couldn't help groaning.

Does this still make people live?

It is said that the Augustus Empire was short of ships and horses. How could the lords of such a remote place have hundreds of cavalry?Could it be that the Augustus Empire captured the prairie?
But they didn't panic, but turned and hid in the jungle under the leader's loud reprimand.

The captives who rode horses in the town and waited for the attack looked nervously at the situation in the distance.

They really didn't pay attention to those thousands of rogues. What they cared about was that Zhao Hu actually armed these captives. If not all the officers returned to their posts and severely warned them to obey orders, I am afraid Many soldiers would have the idea of ​​fleeing on horseback. After all, everyone yearns for freedom.

Although some soldiers were not very willing to serve their captors, under the suppression of the officers, they could only respond with silence.

Fortunately, these officers were very cooperative. Otherwise, if one of them stood up and shouted, the town might have been breached.
