Chapter 198: The first expedition
Lai Junchen and others were busy framed by others... Ang Lee didn't have time to care about it, nor did he want to care about it. Some people would definitely ask why. It's very simple. Those people are not Ang Lee's helpers. Those people can even be said to be the ones who want Ang Lee to die.
You said Ang Lee would kindly help those people, don’t joke.
The only person Ang Lee wants to protect is Di Renjie. If Di Renjie has something to do, Ang Lee will definitely take action. But if it weren't for Di Renjie, unless Ang Lee's brain is broken, he would never offend his grandmother for these people.
"It's so cold..."
This is Ang Lee's barracks... Kong Erlang entered his dormitory. This dormitory was a wooden house with an area of about fifty square meters. There were four beds inside, and the beds were covered with down duvets.
There is a small table on the corner of the bed, where some of your own items can be placed, there are clothes, sabers and belts on the wall, and in the center of the room, there is a large iron furnace, and a thick tube on the charcoal furnace can discharge carbon dioxide and increase the temperature of the room a little.
Water is still burning on the charcoal stove!
After Kong Er was stunned into the dormitory, he went straight to the iron stove, picked up the burning kettle, poured himself a cup of hot water, and sat down with a smile and said, "Brothers... good news is here..."
"Good news...!"
As soon as he heard Kong Erlang say good news, the three people sitting next to him immediately became energetic. One of them asked: "Can we send troops..."
"Hehe...!" Kong Erlan smiled and took a sip of boiling water and said, "It's still old and smart... I just asked Guzheng Chen. It seems that his highness has decided to attack a large band of bandits in Xuzhou tonight. It is said that there are more than 2,000 people."
"So much recognition..." The three people on the side showed a slightly marvelous expression.
"Hehe... don't make a fuss. We are no longer the farming kids we used to be. We are now the Divine Mechanics. Not to mention more than 2,000 people, even 20,000 people, we will not be afraid.
This time, His Highness promised a grand prize. One person's head always has money, and more than two thousand people are more than two. Isn't it good to kill more brothers, buy land, buy houses, and marry a wife?"
"Haha...I think it's good... Our Divine Mechanics shoots a long-range shot, why not make money safely? By the way, remember to engrave your name on your arrow. If someone else loses a head, it will be a consistent amount of money."
"Haha... I'm still smart... Let's go engrave the name."
The four of them immediately left the dormitory and were about to engrave letters on their arrows.
Just as Kong Erlang and others were busy carving letters on their arrows, in the conference room in the barracks, Ang Lee, Zhang Hu, Xue Ding, Meng Ke, Lin Mohan, Xu Jingyi and others all gathered together to start studying this first expedition.
How to say it, no matter how strong you practice, it would be in vain if you don’t see any blood.
Ang Lee wanted to bring his soldiers to blood, but he could not be near Luoyang because there were almost no bandits near Luoyang. According to Di Ting's news, a bandit was found in Xuzhou.
This bandit is cruel. They have to eat a few pieces of human flesh before working.
This kind of thing just makes people feel creepy. After hearing this, Ang Lee immediately asked Di Ting to inquire about the news about the bandits.
As the saying goes, there are top scholars in every industry, and there are also top scholars in the robber industry.
This leading brother was called a "giant thief" by his colleagues. Although this old senior has retired from the world, he did not forget to take care of the juniors in the world and taught them a set of magical methods of killing and robbing people.
Before working, eat a few pieces of human flesh. When you break into someone else's house, this family will definitely not be able to sleep, just like a ghost pressing on a bed.
This group of criminal groups has been educated by this tycoon and has developed a lot of skills. Therefore, they have to eat a few bites of human flesh before each robbery. As for the source of human flesh, they think it comes from "local materials".
Moreover, this group of bandits is not simple. They often leave marks in small hotels between Chang'an and Luoyang, and draw parrots and tea bowls on the walls. The mouth of the parrot is a direction mark, implying where the bandits are going; and the size of the mouth of the tea bowl represents the priorities of the crime. Through these codes, bandits can communicate.
Since the establishment of this group of bandits, hundreds of people have been killed and robbed. From a small workshop with dozens of people at the beginning, it has become a big village with two thousand people.
Xuzhou sent troops to suppress the enemy several times, but this bandit gang is very interesting. Once it is suppressed, it will be broken into pieces and disappeared. After Xuzhou's suppression was useless several times, he had to give up.
However, those who understand will naturally understand, and some people in the army have been bribed.
This time, Ang Lee chose this bandit gang because the other party was very army-collusion, and the second was to eat human flesh, which Ang Lee could not tolerate.
Although Xuzhou is far away, Ang Lee's four hundred guards and three hundred gods have very strong maneuverability, one man and three horses... He can reach the Xuzhou border in about two hours. At this time, he will rest at the Xuzhou border for a while, and then enter the mountain village in the early morning, and fight to determine the world.
But at this time, Zhang Hu shook his head repeatedly in the conference room and said, "No...!"
"Why..." Ang Lee said in confusion: "I can ride a horse... and I have no problem with Lin Zhuangyuan and Jingyi protecting me."
"If it doesn't work, it won't work. There's no reason... This time I went to war. The so-called son of a daughter does not stand under the dangerous wall, so I will never agree...!"
After Zhang Hu finished speaking, Xue Ding on the side also quickly persuaded: "Yes, Your Highness... I'm going nearly four hundred miles away. If you go back and forth, your thighs will be worn out. In a few days, Your Highness will go with Mr. Xue to pick up the Lu family girl.
This is what you promised, do you have to spread your legs and pick them up?"
"This...!" Ang Lee was speechless. To be honest, Ang Lee wanted to be with his warriors, but Ang Lee was at most willing but not capable. He was now too different from his guards and Divine Mechanics.
"Okay...it's all decided... This time I will lead the team, and Lin Zhuangyuan and Instructor Xu stay. After we leave, you must protect Your Highness. You will set off at Xu at night. At about midnight, you will arrive at the border of Xuzhou and follow Yin at the mountain village.
The battle will be resolved in half an hour...!"
Zhang Hu got up and finished talking about everything. Ang Lee could only look at Zhang Hu in disappointment. There was no way for anyone to let him fail...!
"Uncle Hu... Then you must be careful... I hope that as many people go, I will have to come back." Ang Lee looked at Zhang Hu with some concern.
Meng Ke said here, "Your Highness, don't worry... We will definitely go safely. If you come back safely, don't worry."
"Yeah..." Ang Lee could only nod.
....................................
The next night... at about 18 o'clock, the entire military camp was very excited at this time. Ang Lee also arrived at the scene and told him about the grand prize system. A person's head always had money, instantly ignited the entire military camp.
All the soldiers showed a look of yearning, and were not as scared as going to the battlefield for the first time. They just thought that they would kill a few more bandits this time and then make their wallets bulge.
Li Zhan's arrival brought a lot of meat to the barracks. This was a carnival before the war. All the soldiers were eating and drinking, and they were all happy.
When the time was almost time for Xu, Ang Lee stood up and shouted, "Dear soldiers... Xu is coming, and you are about to go to the battle for the first time. To be honest, I really want to be with you.
But I am not capable enough, General Zhang said, just like me, although I can ride a horse, I will most likely lose my thighs in the 400 miles back and forth.
And each of you has experienced such a situation. I’m sorry I didn’t care too much about you... When you return in triumphant this time, I will definitely drink with you.
Remember... many people go there, so many people will come back to me. I need you, the people of Zhenjia Village need you, and your relatives need you, don’t show off and listen to the team’s words.
I will live in the barracks today and wait for you to return triumphantly. If you don’t return triumphantly, I will not leave.
We must come back, please...!" After saying that, Ang Lee bowed deeply to everyone present.
"I wish to die for Your Highness..." A slam, seven hundred soldiers knelt down on one knee, and then Zhang Hu shouted: "Standing attentively... Let's rest... Everyone uses the team as a unit and reorganizes the army... a quarter of an hour later, set off...!"
"promise...!"
Seeing his soldiers leaving row by row, Li An was also mixed in his heart. At this time, Zhang Hu came to An An and smiled and said to An An, "Don't worry, your highness... we will definitely come back safely."
At this time, Ang Lee also looked at Zhang Hu and said, "Uncle Hu... It is right for a gentleman not to stand under a dangerous wall, but as the commander, I still need to be with my own warriors.
However, what you said is right. My equestrian is not good, and it will only be a burden if I go. However, I won’t go this time, but next time I will definitely practice the equestrian well. At that time, please do not reject me."
"Uh..." Looking at Ang Lee, Zhang Hu didn't know what to say, but looking at Ang Lee's firm eyes, Zhang Hu had to nod and said, "Yes... But you must pass my assessment. If the assessment fails, you just pass the equestrian, and I will still not let you go."
"Okay...it's a decision..." Ang Lee smiled and stretched out his right hand to Zhang Hu.
Zhang Hu smiled happily, and then held it with Ang Lee in his right hand.
After that, Zhang Hu turned around and Ang Lee shouted: "Uncle Hu, you must come back safely..."
Zhang Hu did not look back, but said affirmatively: "Don't worry, your highness, wait for the news of our victory and triumphant return." After that, Zhang Hu waved his hand and left calmly.
Soon... the army set out... Of course, the army was called to pass, with only more than 700 people, but this time the departing was very meaningful. This expedition gave Li An's blood baptism. This blood baptism gave Li An's army a qualitative leap, and it was recognized by Wu Zetian.
Soon, Ang Lee's Divine Mechanics can add another 700 people.
