Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 6 Thunder
Having a belch, Bart tightened the thick belt around his waist, and the warmth on his body increased a lot. Although drinking is not allowed on duty, the weather is really too cold. The cold wind coming over is simply more terrifying than the gloomy wind in hell. If you don't drink a few sips, you really can't resist this cold night. Fortunately, my tribe has always had a tradition of drinking alcohol. It's nothing to drink a few sips, but the amount must be controlled well. I think I still have some self-control, as long as I don't delay things. Earn the position of a deputy captain, you have to cherish it.
This is after the original garrison division was reorganized into a regular garrison division by Mr. Li. As an old cavalryman, he was left behind to lead the new recruits. I was promoted a lot, from a sub-captain to a vice-captain. Although I stayed in the garrison, this is a rare honor. I heard that I have turned over a year and I hope to be sent to the military academy in Qingpu. Do further studies.
"Cheer up, don't shrink your head like a turtle grandson, listen to the above, it seems that the north is not very quiet these two days, let's be careful tonight, don't meet any horse thief who doesn't have eyes. They missed it, and we lost a good opportunity to make meritorious deeds." Bart said nonsense, the purpose was to lift up the spirit of the brothers, this routine patrol is necessary, but it has been peaceful for a long time, where are there any horse thieves? Even if there was, it would have slipped to the territory of the Luobei people or the Mot people. Everyone knows that there is a regiment of troops stationed in Mangye Town. If the horse thief wants to come here to look for food, it is not suicide. road?
Immediately after that, several voices picked up: "My lord, how many times have you said this, and how many times have we patrolled with you, we are so familiar with this defense zone that we can find it with our eyes closed. Come back, where are the horse thieves? I almost went to patrol the Mote and Robi people, aren’t you here to tease us again to stimulate our interest?”
After being stunned for a while, Bart became angry with embarrassment: "You bastards, do you think that this horse thief is so easy for you to encounter? Let me tell you, no pain, no gain, this is the motto taught by Master Li. How can there be such a good thing, oh, you will encounter it as soon as you are on patrol, then everyone has to go to the border line to guard, where is it your turn? If you want to get promoted and get rich, you have to do your part well Well, the opportunity is waiting for you!"
Seeing that the boss was furious, the people behind were silent, and Bart didn't say anything more. He urged the horse to dive into the cold night first, and the two or three hundred light cavalry behind him followed closely behind him, rolling in the field. There were bursts of residual snow.
"Quick, quick, quick!" In the cold night, the stern north wind was like a knife scraping, stabbing his face with unbearable pain, and the thick leather hat and fur coat still couldn't resist the cold wind from hell, but these were not things that made him feel sick. The reason for the young man's fear was the looming torches and the barking of dogs several miles behind him, which was what he was most afraid of.
"How far is it to get to Mangye Town? I really can't hold on anymore." The fierce cold wind made him almost speechless, his face was completely numb, and he pulled off the leather earmuffs , the young man glanced at the horse under his crotch in despair. He ran for hundreds of miles without a moment's rest, and it was in such a bad snowy weather. Yi's good horse couldn't bear this kind of unrestrained torture, and he was so tired that he felt that his bones were about to shatter, and it was really hard for him to hold on.
"My lord, you must not stop at this time. They are only two or three miles away from us. Once we stop, I am afraid we will never have another chance." There are ten miles more to the northwest boundary, as long as we get there, we will have a chance."
"However, in the middle of the night, the northwest side didn't know about our situation, and there wasn't even a single messenger. I'm afraid we would be overtaken by them if we couldn't escape to Mangye Town." The young man had already A little incoherent, seeing the fire and noise behind him getting closer, he even wanted to give up resisting a little bit, maybe he was captured by them and they could save him a life? After all, he and I are still brothers connected by blood.
"My lord, don't fantasize. Once we are caught, maybe some of us can survive. Only you, I'm afraid they won't let go of the opportunity to eradicate the troubles forever! Let's go quickly !" The middle-aged man unceremoniously broke the illusion of the young man.
After taking a few deep breaths, he probably understood that what the other party said was right. The young man gritted his teeth and said nothing more. The dismounted horse sprang out in pain, and nearly forty or fifty entourages followed closely behind, whipping the horse and whipping the horse, and galloped towards the southeast like crazy in the wind and snow.
The snowstorm is getting stronger, and the shallow ditch in front is the destination. It is the natural dividing line between the northwest and the Mott territory. When we get there, the patrol mission is almost over. This night is dark The wind was high, the snow was heavy, and I didn't even see half a person along the way. Also, in this kind of weather, everyone wants to stay in the house and sleep by the fire, unless there is something urgent.
"My lord, it seems that there is movement ahead." The loose formation of the front team suddenly tightened up as if someone had been whipped, and Yiqi suddenly turned his horse's head and ran over, panting Like Bart reports.
"What's going on?" Bart immediately became interested when he heard it, and his eyes lit up.
"This is not very clear, but there seem to be dogs barking and crying a few miles ahead, and there seems to be the sound of cavalry's horseshoes." The cavalry who came to report were not sure.
"Go, go and have a look!" Like a vulture smelling rotten meat, Bart keenly felt that there was something going on here. Could it be that this horse thief was just taking advantage of the snowy night to rob money? It's just such a weather, which caravan would choose this time to go out? Unless it is a smuggling caravan, even if it is a smuggling caravan, it is impossible to be targeted by horse thieves in this border area. If you want to **** it, you should choose to go to the depths of the grassland dozens of miles away. This is not an obvious provocation to yourself. ? Bart doesn't care much about this matter, as long as he has the opportunity to fight a battle, if he is lucky, he can get a chance to be promoted. This military merit is the first condition for promotion.
"But, my lord, that seems to be the territory of the Motts."
"I don't care about him, who cares so much about this black light and blind fire. If it is really a horse thief, we will all send it out. As long as we take them down, the brothers have hope to go back and get promoted and make a fortune. It's not a day that everyone complains No chance, now the chance is here, if you miss this village, you won’t be able to go to another store, let’s go!" At this time, Bart was completely attracted by the desire for meritorious service, and ordered the rear team to follow closely, while he slammed Horse, led our team to catch up.
The side that has been in a desperate situation has completely lost hope of escape, if the cavalry led by Bart did not arrive. Although the dozens of cavalry following the young man desperately resisted the entanglement, the pursuers who had the absolute advantage still caught up with them two miles away from the northwest territory. After a frantic duel, only the fleeing party was left. Less than twenty riders escaped, and then the party that had already formed an encirclement entangled them again. This time it seemed that they were doomed.
The young man only felt his chest tighten for a while, and the continuous high-intensity strenuous exercise made him feel a little dizzy. It also seems to be ignored.
"My lord, let's go!" Although a hundred chasing cavalry has formed a not-too-tight encirclement, the ending has long been doomed. If they are surrounded, they will have to suffer death obediently.
Maybe it was the fierce fighting that made them forget where they were now, maybe it was the howling north wind and blizzard that made both sides of the fierce battle a little tired and dull, who didn't notice the quietly changing situation around them, when the darkness was overwhelming A large group of cavalry came out from the dark night ~IndoMTL.com~ When they raised the butter and windproof torches in their hands, everyone in the fighting circle was stunned.
Bart carefully looked at the prey in the encirclement. He observed the clothes of the two groups with some doubts. He could see that the clothes of the two groups were very similar. To be precise, they should be the same. The Motts above are dressed as rangers, and it can be seen that they all know each other, and they are even quite familiar with each other, but why did these Motts come to this place to practice martial arts on such a snowy night when it is rare for ghosts to go out? , this is too absurd, right?
Although he didn't know why the two gangs were desperately fighting each other, his intuition made Bart feel that he had really caught a big fish today. It can be concluded that that guy is not a simple person. As a Uli warrior, he also comes from the Tengger Grassland. The costumes of the royal family on the grassland are quite different from the costumes of ordinary nobles. There are differences in the color of the clothes, flower decorations and accessories. There are obvious differences, and this guy belongs to that kind of extremely rare one. Although his expression is full of fear, it does not affect his identity.
In an instant, everyone in the fighting arena stopped. The surrounding fire was dazzling, and the raging flames swayed in the wind. Standing in a stance, the shadows of hundreds of arrows flickering with cold light trembled on the bowstring, truly glaring.
"Everyone, please be quiet, okay? It's dark and cold, so it's not easy to play, but it's too hard to practice in such a barren mountain and wild place?" Bart's Tang Chinese is already quite proficient , but he could see that these people should all come from the Tengger Grassland, so he directly spoke in the common Hu language on the grassland.
