As a military town dedicated to guarding against the Tubo and Uighurs in the Qilian Mountains, ordinary soldiers in the Shouchang town army may not be familiar with Ge Du, but the elite Shouchang army such as Ma Yaozi and Deputy Yan are very familiar with Ge Du.
Correspondingly, the actual relationship between Ge Duo and Shouchang Zhenjun is not exactly that of cat and mouse.
Under normal circumstances, Ge Duo comes out to do business without capital. If he meets the elite You Yijun of the Shouchang Town Army, he usually throws some of the property he robbed from passing business trips on the ground. , generally will not choose to continue to pursue.
At the same time, Ge Du would sell the stolen goods through Shouchang Town Army, such as porcelain, silk and satin, which he had no use for.
Of course, most of it was taken away by the envoys and county magistrates above, and Ma Yaozi and others just drank some soup.
This is also the reason why Ge Duo has been able to run rampant on the sandbank for decades. Of course, there are reasons such as the strong combat power of the horse thieves gang and the concealment of their lair. The release of Shouchang Town Army is also a big factor.
hehe! A low-level officer like Captain Yan's monthly salary can't be converted into regular money, and there are even fewer soldiers below. With such a small income, anyone who risks his life to suppress Ge Du is a fool. Get some money from the horse bandits, and everyone will live in peace. Isn’t it bad to have nothing to do?
"Who got in first?" Vice Captain Yan is still struggling with this matter. The money is so exciting! "Is there internal strife? Is it the work of a few guys under Ge Du?"
Who did it? A name came to Ma Yaozi's mind, but then he shook his head twice. How is that possible? Zhang Erlangjun's ancestors showed up to fight one against a hundred. Isn't that nonsense?
'Boom! 'Just when Ma Yaozi shook his head, a sound of a bowstring vibrating came. Although the sound was very soft, it could still be heard clearly by battle-hardened warriors like Ma Yaozi and Captain Yan.
Ma Yaozi hurriedly ran to the roadside and hid directly in the bushes!
Captain Yan was a little far away from the bushes, so he could only quickly hide behind the horse. He whistled in his mouth and patted his hand lightly, and the horse who had memorized the copper mace and buckler on his back was He lay down, just enough to cover Deputy Yan.
'Snapped! 'The arrow did not hit the two of them, but hit the horse behind them. This horse was also tied with a set of ring-lock armor. I don't know if it was intentional or missed. The arrow was directly inserted into the ring-lock. On the armor.
"Whoa! Whoa!" The horse was not hurt, but it was frightened by the huge impact. In addition, the horse kite didn't hold the reins. The beast screamed twice and ran away in a flash.
The two of them reacted quickly, and the soldiers behind them were also slow. No one asked what happened, and no one looked around. These thirty Shouchang soldiers showed extremely high military quality. They were quickly destroyed under the command of the fire chief. After dropping the torch, a group of ten people quickly surrounded the city with their guns pointing outwards.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The rapid sound of horse hooves sounded, and there were at least thirty riders. Ma Yaozi looked up and saw a group of armored cavalry rushing over along the path. The leader actually wore a Dark golden light armor.
Who is such a coward? The thought just came into Ma Yaozi's mind, and he suddenly trembled because he suddenly remembered what people in Qi Xianghu's village said about the golden armor given by the Taibao Gongxian.
The cavalry came very quickly, obviously not for the two of them. Ma Yaozi was about to touch the hard bow that fell on the road, but as soon as he moved, an arrow grazed his right arm and flew out with a whoosh. .
Straight thief, a sharpshooter! Ma Yaozi quickly shrank his whole body behind a stone and did not dare to move!
Zhang Zhao's riding skills are very average, because in later generations, armor is actually not expensive and can be started for tens of thousands of yuan.
But in future generations, it will be expensive to practice horse riding, especially galloping. There are few horse farms, let alone raising horses by yourself. There is no place to raise them, and even ordinary villas cannot raise them.
However, after several days of assault training and his old foundation, Zhang Zhao still managed to complete this charge.
The Shouchang Town Army was on fire. Before they had time to withdraw from the road, Zhang Zhao and the others arrived. Seeing a group of armored cavalry rushing towards them from the opposite side, the dozen or so people in the middle of the road howled and then dispersed in a rush.
What a joke! The infantry who didn't even have time to put on their fire armor, and the armored cavalry who had already charged forward, no one was so stupid!
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Just as the burning men dispersed in a crowd, the charging armored cavalry stopped their horses, then took out a short bow from the side of the horse, and gave them a meal of arrows on the horse. rain.
Ma Yaozi closed his eyes in pain. He didn't know how many people would be lost now!
"Ouch! Ouch!" But what was surprising was that what came to his ears was not the scream after being hit by an arrow, but the sound of pain after being beaten with a stick.
"His mother! These people use arrows made of bones and wrapped in cotton! Where did these thieves come from? Are they here to play tricks?"
Lieutenant Yan was curled up on the side of the road. Something went wrong soon. An arrow flew over and hit him. Lieutenant Yan was very familiar with this thing and recognized it immediately.
There were various types of arrows in the Cold Weapon Age, including crescent or fishtail-shaped ones specially used for shooting flags and ropes, expensive armor-piercing triangular pyramids, and heavy arrows with wide blades. A single hit could sometimes cut off the wrist.
Dun arrows are a kind of training and warning arrows. They are generally made of wood in the Central Plains, and blunt bones in Tubo and beyond the Great Wall. This type of arrow is not very lethal, but it is very painful when it hits a person.
Captain Yan recognized it as a pier arrow, and of course the Shouchang Town Army, who were howling in pain, also knew it. Therefore, they did not resist fiercely, nor did they think of forming a formation to fight to the death. Instead, they screamed and went into the bushes. Drilled through.
Since these guys are elite, elite sometimes also means slick.
These veterans of the battlefield felt that the raiding party did not have much malicious intent, at least they did not want to kill them.
Moreover, they were here to help Luo Heshi with personal matters this time. Whoever would be foolish enough to risk angering the other party and fight to the death would just run away if they could.
After a hail of arrows covered him, Zhang Zhao was the first to jump off his horse, and the rising sun revealed half of his face on his back.
Under the sunlight, the Mingguang Armor on Zhang Zhao's body immediately reflected the bright golden light. The diamond mask looked majestic and solemn. The red tassel on his head fluttered gently with the majestic wind. The long spear in his hand was sharp and straight, with a willow leaf-shaped spearhead. It has a very destructive beauty, the whole person looks like it!
How powerful is his mother!
Is he a divine general who came down from the nine heavens? This was the truest thought in Chen Huoer's heart. As the leader of the fire, he stared blankly, forgetting to organize resistance or escape.
Then the golden armored general actually smiled at him. Although the other person's face was covered by his visor, Chen Huo'er knew that he was smiling.
"I'm here to find Ma Yaozi. I have nothing to do with anyone else. Shanhou has baked sesame cakes and stewed mutton soup with pepper and dogwood. It's for a man. The eggs are still in his crotch, so I'll stay and enjoy it!"
