"Report!" A spy rushed over and knelt down in front of the bandit leader.

"Tell me!" The leader also wanted to know the situation in Huangjiacun anxiously.

"All the villagers in Huangjia Village have gone hunting in the mountains. Now there are only a dozen of Gongsun Sheng's guards in the private school. The rest are just old, weak, women and children, or scholars who are powerless!" the spy replied happily.

"Okay, okay, okay! God helps me!" The leader laughed.

If the people in Huangjia Village had not gone up the mountain, then as soon as they discovered me, the strong men among them would immediately arm themselves and fight against me.

Although I have not tested the combat effectiveness of Huangjia Village, judging from the information I usually get, the villagers of Huangjia Village are qualified archers when they pick up a bow and arrow, and they can transform into cavalry archers or heavy cavalry immediately after mounting a horse.

If my attack is blocked by them, I'm afraid that even if I can successfully capture Gongsun Sheng, I will still be injured.

If the surrounding mountain kings take advantage of it, the foundation they have worked so hard to build will be destroyed.

He may be greedy for money, but at least he won't make fun of his own business.

"My sons! Speed ​​up your pace and destroy that private school. I will personally reward you tonight, the king!" the leader excitedly shouted to his subordinates behind him.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The renewed encouragement made these bandits even more excited, their morale was once again improved, and their pace accelerated a bit.

Most of the way from Fuhu Mountain to Huangjiacun is in the plains. In this place with a wide view, any danger can be discovered immediately, so the leader does not need to worry about anything at all, he just asks the sons to hurry up.

march.

There was only a short stretch of road at the end, and the leader had to act cautiously.

There is no way, Huangjia Village relies on mountains, and the village is located in a small forest. The dense trees cover both sides, covering up all lurking dangers.

The reason why the leader can be regarded as the leader and the reason why he can prosper in Nanyang is because he is brave but very careful.

It can be said that as long as the danger is not great, he can take the lead and rush to the front line; but if there are too many unknown situations, then he will be very careful every step he takes, for fear of accidentally falling into someone else's trap.

"Well! Stop!" After advancing several hundred meters, the leader shouted towards the back.

The team immediately stopped and looked at the leader in confusion.

"Go and look at the ground over there!" the leader told the second-in-command beside him.

The second master quickly selected a son-in-law and walked over to check.

Not long after, Erlang dug out a horse rope.

"Haha, you want to use this trick to plot against Grandpa and me? There is no way! Everyone is ready for battle. The crossbowmen should be cocked immediately and guard both sides!" The leader laughed and immediately gave the order.

The bandits quickly entered a fighting state, especially the crossbowmen. The crossbows in their hands were aimed at both sides, for fear that enemies would suddenly come out.

The group of people waited for two quarters of an hour, but they didn't even wait.

"Chief, this..." The second master looked at the leader in confusion.

"Be careful not to make a big mistake. Inform the whole army to be on guard while moving forward. The target is three miles in front of us, and there is not much way to go from there." The leader thought for a while and gave the order in a low voice.

"Yes!" The second master accepted the order happily and immediately informed.

The bandits moved forward again, but compared to before, their speed was unknown.

More importantly, the heavy psychological pressure caused by the invisible enemy made all bandits feel suffocated.

"Bang!" There was a sound, and everyone was startled. Without saying a word, they drew their swords and glanced around.

"What's wrong?!" There was still no enemy around, the leader shouted unhappily.

"Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Your Majesty, have mercy on me! I was too nervous just now and accidentally pressed the trigger of the crossbow." A crossbowman immediately came to him and knelt down in front of him, kowtowing to him.

"I will spare your life, but I will never tolerate it next time!" The leader was tolerant and forgave his sins.

The crossbowman was so grateful for being forgiven that he almost didn't say long live.

Everyone had a false alarm, but under the scolding of the second master, they set off again.

But because of the crossbowmen's mistakes before, the overall atmosphere became a lot more relaxed. In addition, the enemy didn't appear for a long time, and I couldn't help but feel that I underestimated the enemy.

Soon, the wall of Huangjiacun appeared in front of everyone.

The private school, however, sat outside the village and became an independent and lonely existence.

In the private school, there was the faint sound of reading, and I thought it was time for class.

"To be frightened by a useless trip rope is really..." When the target was right in front of him, the leader couldn't help but feel ridiculous for his caution.

Not to mention the leader, other bandits also began to relax.

Suddenly, a crossbowman from the perimeter said "Ah!" and fell to the ground.

There was an arrow stuck in his throat.

Arrows rained down at this moment.

"Shield soldiers! Shield soldiers, hurry up and protect the crossbowmen!" The leader shouted hurriedly behind him under the cover of his surrounding subordinates.

He also didn't expect that the enemy would take advantage of the moment when his spirit was relaxed and launch an attack.

"Ta Ta..." Regular sounds began to be heard in the village.

"Cavalry! It's the sound of cavalry troops running!" The leader had seen cavalry charging, so he knew what this sound meant.

Sure enough, not long after, more than fifty cavalrymen on white horses emerged from the village.

"Damn it, it's the white horse soldiers of the Youzhou Gongsun family!" The leader recognized the type of the cavalry just by looking at their equipment.

Gongsun loved white horses. People in Gongsun's family not only liked to ride white horses, but also liked to use soldiers riding white horses.

The most famous thing about their family is that they have a white horse cavalry team.

Normally, the cavalry serve as domestic servants, receiving training and doing some chores at the same time. When fighting, they are quickly armed and go into battle as soon as possible.

Wherever it passes, no scrap is left behind.

"Pikemen, immediately go out into formation. Archers prepare to shoot, and crossbowmen immediately fire back at the enemies on both sides!" At this time, the leader calmed down and gave orders in an orderly manner.

More than fifty bandits armed with spears quickly came to the front and formed a gun formation, while more than fifty archers behind were ready to shoot.

It's not that we don't want more people to form a formation, it's just that due to the limitations of the mountain road in the forest, the formation cannot be too large.

The shield soldiers were still guarding the crossbowmen, while the crossbowmen were quickly counterattacking the archers on both sides.

In the first wave of attacks, more than 200 crossbowmen killed more than 160 people, and the force of the counterattack was greatly weakened.

"Damn it, there are Youzhou white horse soldiers in front, and there are elite archers from Huangjia Village on both sides. Those two bastards from the Xie family, if I don't die this time, I will definitely wipe out Xiejia Village!" The leader was thinking at this moment.

Blood dripping, more than 200 crossbowmen who had been trained with great difficulty were killed in battle.

Fortunately, as long as the crossbows are still there, it is not difficult to form another one. After all, crossbowmen and archers are very different in nature.

To be honest, the leader already wanted to retreat at this moment, but the white horse cavalry was so aggressive that if they could not stop their charge, they would turn around rashly.

It is conceivable that the entire army will be scattered at the first opportunity, and I, the last one, will most likely be killed immediately.

At this moment, the leader is already retreating quietly, and will immediately give the order to retreat as soon as the position is suitable.

This time he failed, due to his lack of understanding of the intelligence.

He also didn't expect that Xie Xin would actually see through his intentions and set up a trap to attack him. He had discovered that everything from the initial trip to the current attack was aimed at his character.

Everything was prepared so perfectly that he had to start to wonder if someone from the Xie family was deliberately planning to kill him with the help of Xie Xin.

Don't have to wait until the incident comes out and drag them down?!

Thinking of this possibility, the leader had the urge to wipe out Xiejiacun.

But in order to realize this wish, we must first leave here safely.

"Your Majesty, the enemy's archers have begun to attack our archers and spearmen!

Although there are shield soldiers for protection, the opponent's arrow skills are so good that they can often shoot through the gaps in the shield. How can we resist those cavalry if this continues?

Your Majesty, why don't we withdraw?!" The second master came to the leader's side and said pitifully.

"Well... withdraw!" The leader looked at his position and felt that it was already a safe position, so he agreed.

When the second leader heard that the leader agreed to withdraw his troops, he ordered the retreat as if he had been granted amnesty.

But at this time, the cavalry had already rushed into the formation and strangled the bandits in the battle.

Youzhou's White Horse Soldiers are indeed worthy of their reputation. Wherever they go there are bursts of guns and flowers, and wherever the flowers bloom, a cloud of blood mist quickly rises. However, it was caused by a bandit's vital part being pierced.

"Each cavalryman has the combat power of a hundred generals. Is this the prototype of the White Horse Yi Cong - the White Horse Cavalry?" Xie Xin couldn't help but sigh while watching the battle from a distance.

"Brother-in-law, what did you say just now?" Gongsun Sheng, who was standing beside him, twitched his ears.

"Nothing, I just admire the bravery of my brother's cavalry." Xie Xin replied with a smile.

"That's natural. Youzhou is adjacent to the barbarians. Without a powerful armed force that can be called upon at any time, the Gongsun family would have been destroyed by the Hu people's plundering troops from the south. How could it have existed for so long?" Gongsun Sheng said proudly.

.

"The opponent has started to retreat, and it seems like it's time for me to go out." Huang Zhong looked at the situation, turned around and was about to go out.

"Brother Huang, how about trying this horse?" Xie Xin saw that Huang Zhong was going to ride his yellow-maned horse, and immediately went to bring him the Liaoyuanhuo that Bian Linglong had bought.

"What a good horse! He's just a little young, but he will definitely be a first-class horse in a year or two!" Huang Zhong stroked Liao Yuanhuo's mane and couldn't help but admire it.

"If Brother Huang likes it, how about giving this horse to him?" Xie Xin saw that Huang Zhong liked it, so he gave the horse to him.
