The beginning of the king guards the Great Wall

Chapter 12

The desert in the clouds is vast and boundless.

In the endless desert, there are very few living people.

Occasionally, a caravan passed by, leaving traces on the yellow sand like reckless snakes.

Under the sun, more than a dozen ox carts lined up and slowly moved forward, which looked no different from ordinary caravans.

Jiang Ming was wearing a sunshade straw hat, and Lazy Yangyang was lying on the bullock cart, with an indescribably comfortable face.

It is a violation of the laws of the Tang Dynasty for soldiers to communicate with other state-owned materials without authorization.

For the sake of insurance, Jiang Ming followed Baili's suggestion of keeping the contract.

Put a layer of straw on the bullock cart and pretend to be an ordinary desert businessman.

"Old Li, how long until you arrive in Yucheng?"

Jiang Ming's lazy voice sounded.

The veteran driving the car smiled slightly and said, "Go back to your lord, there are still two days left."

"It's two more days."

Jiang Ming gently repeated Lao Li's words.

Counting the previous three days, that means the total time spent on the road was five days.

These few days Jiang Ming didn't need to train, he just basked in the sun and bragged with his subordinates every day, his life was really nourishing.

But one thing is regrettable.

That is, the desert cannot sign in. Jiang Ming has not received a sign-in reward for several days.

"I hope Yucheng can bring me some surprises."

Jiang Ming thought so in his heart.

The convoy continued on its way, and encountered several groups of caravans on the road who should also be going to Yucheng.

Close to each other tacitly.

There are many horse bandits in the desert, and they specialize in robbing these caravans. If you walk closer, there will be someone to take care of you.

After all, more people have more strength, and horse bandits will be afraid of more people.

Jiang Ming was not afraid of being robbed by horse bandits, but in order not to look special, he still ordered Lao Li to follow the other caravans.

After walking for about two hours, the convoy in front suddenly turned around and went back the same way.

"Old Li, what's going on in front?"

Jiang Ming asked with a frown.

"Adults wait a moment, and the younger ones go to inquire."

After Lao Li finished speaking, he jumped out of the car and started talking to the other groom.

After a while, Lao Li returned: "My lord, the horse bandit was found five kilometers ahead, but the horse bandit was busy robbing, so he didn't notice this side, we just need to detour."

This desert belongs to the boundary of the Three No Matters, the Tang Dynasty doesn't care, the Yucheng doesn't care, and the Thousand Cave City doesn't care.

There is no army in charge, so the number of horse bandits is abnormally large, and it is very common for caravans to be robbed by roadblocks.

Generally, when encountering such a situation, everyone will take a detour wisely.

"If you spare the way, how many more days will you have to walk?"

Jiang Ming asked while crossing his arms.

"Two days."

Lao Li thought for a while and gave an answer.

"Two days? That won't work, it's a waste of time, just go straight ahead!"

Jiang Ming said decisively.

It would be faster to get rid of these horse bandits if it took two days to detour.

Hearing this, Old Li showed hesitation: "My lord, let's make a detour, the front is the famous Black Swordsmen Bandits."

"But the Black Swordsman Bandits known for their brutality?"

Hearing this name, Jiang Ming's pupils trembled suddenly, and he sat up from the bullock cart in an instant.

Ordinary horse bandits only steal money and don't hurt people, but this black knife horse bandit group never keeps alive.

It can be said that it is notorious, and everyone gets it and punishes it.

"That's right, it's the Black Saber Bandits."

Lao Li nodded and said.

The reason why the black knife horse bandits are so rampant is because their leader is a gold-level powerhouse.

People like this would exist at the general level in every big country, so naturally no one would pay a huge price to encircle and suppress them.

Lao Li felt that since Jiang Ming had heard of the reputation of the Black Saber Bandits, he would definitely agree to take a detour.

However, Jiang Ming's next words shocked him.

"If that's the case, let's go straight!"

Jiang Ming said seriously.

Such a heinous villain, no matter whether Datang should take care of him or not, he can't ignore it.

"My lord, don't be impulsive, Heidao Lao Liu, the leader of the Black Sword Horse Bandit Group, is a gold-level powerhouse!"

Lao Li was dumbfounded and tried to persuade Jiang Ming.

"Don't worry, you just drive the car, and the horse bandit will leave it to me."

Jiang Ming's eyes were firm, and his tone could not be questioned.

"OK then."

Old Li responded weakly, and hurried forward.

Jiang Ming is very strong, which is obvious to all guards.

But after all, he only has Silver III, and Heidao Lao Liu is a real gold-rank powerhouse.

Can Jiang Ming beat it?
Lao Li was secretly worried and panicked.

. . .

At the same time, five kilometers ahead.

Hundreds of horse bandits with machetes circling triumphantly.

In the middle of the horse bandits, a young girl with an exquisite face turned pale and her legs trembled involuntarily.

There were several bodyguard-like figures around her, all drawing their knives and aiming at the surrounding horse bandits with serious faces.

It seems that it is not a businessman who trades, but a lady who sneaked out of the house.

"Boss, there are so many valuable treasures on this girl, we have made a fortune!"

A horse bandit said excitedly, looking at the leader next to him holding a huge black knife with a wide blade.

"Money, money, money, I know money all day long. Is it the money that looks better or this pretty girl?"

The leader of the horse bandit, Heidao Lao Liu, looked at the beautiful girl without blinking his eyes.

The idiot-like gaze made the girl feel sick.

"Boss is right, if you run out of money, you can grab it again, if you don't make love, the girl will grow old!"

The horse bandit boy chuckled, his eyes were extremely wretched.

"Haha, that's the truth."

Heidao Lao Liu laughed and walked towards the girl.

"Don't come here!"

The girl screamed, her expression extremely terrified.

"Miss, don't panic, I'll protect you!"

A bodyguard bravely stood up, pointing the blade at Heidao Lao Liu.

However, in the next second, he was chopped off by a black light.

"A mere bronze ant dares to jump in front of me."

Heidao Lao Liu snorted coldly, his eyes were vicious.

He hooked his fingers lightly, and the younger brothers around him immediately understood.

Puff puff!
Blood spurt!

Several bodyguards were quickly hacked to death.

Only the girl was left, shivering under the siege of the horse bandits.

"Help, who will help me!"

Seeing Heidao Lao Liu approaching step by step, the girl's pupils suddenly shrank, and she shouted at the top of her voice.

"Little girl, no one will come to rescue you, so save your energy and call me at night."

Heidao Lao Liu licked his lips with a look of embarrassment.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind.

"Let go of her!"

I saw flying sand and rocks rising suddenly in the distance, and a figure galloped towards this side like lightning.

It was Jiang Ming.

He thought the ox cart was going too slowly, so he just jumped out of the cart and ran over with his legs.

"Which one is short-sighted, go and kill him!"

Heidao Lao Liu impatiently issued orders to his subordinates.

"Yes!"

Several horse bandits received the order and immediately rode up on tall horses to meet them.

Brush brush!
There was a sharp piercing sound.

The corners of Heidao Lao Liu's lips curled up triumphantly.

However, in the next second, his face changed drastically.

I saw the heads of several subordinates being thrown over like balls!
