Chapter 5 No. C Military Town! The moment Shi Qing appeared, he stepped on the ground with the sole of his foot and swept the long knife in his hand. A streak of blood appeared on the necks of the three northern barbarian cavalry. Their heads fell weakly, their bodies tilted, and they fell from the horse.
Hearing the movement behind them, several nearby Northern Barbarian cavalry quickly turned back, but they were greeted by a sharp sword light.
Shi Qing suddenly appeared behind the crowd, got angry, and slashed seven or eight times as fast as he could, just like chopping melons and vegetables, directly killing eighteen Northern Barbarian cavalry.
Sensing the movement behind them, the first reaction of the Northern Barbarian cavalry in front was to run away on horseback. No matter what, they ran to a safe place first. If they wanted to kill the enemy, they had to wait until they were facing the enemy head-on, hoping to control their horses and turn around. , fighting with the people behind you is a stupid thing that people who have never been on the battlefield would do.
Seeing that the remaining 20 cavalrymen in front were about to flee on horseback, Shi Qing suddenly flicked his left hand, and the iron round shield in his hand flew out. The sharp edge of the shield cut the throats of the two northern barbarian cavalrymen in succession, and finally accurately Cut it on the back of the neck of the Northern Barbarian deputy centurion! With a bang, the buckler sank in half, and the Northern Barbarian deputy centurion's neck was bent at an incredible angle. He was carried two steps forward by the horse, and then fell to the ground helplessly.
"Drive!" Shi Qing slapped the horse's belly with both legs, and chased straight to the place where the Northern Barbarian cavalry were the most, slashing all the way, and six more cavalrymen were killed under the horse.
The cavalrymen who had fled in front of Shi Qing raised their hands and the long knife in their hands was thrown out by Shi Qing, directly piercing the chest of one of the cavalrymen.
At this point, Shi Qing killed 28 Northern Barbarian cavalry in a row in just a few minutes, including the deputy centurion of the Northern Barbarian cavalry. Only thirteen or four cavalry were left. Seeing that the situation was not right, they immediately dispersed on horseback. Escape, only then can you escape with your life.
Chu Jiang's eyes lit up, he was worthy of being the person who came out of the general stage.
Seeing the Northern Barbarian cavalry being slaughtered and scattered, the soldiers under Chu Jiang's command suddenly burst into cheers. Everyone's face was filled with joy of surviving the disaster, and the battle formation that had been prepared for the battle also relaxed.
Shi Qing took back his shield and long knife, and drove his seated war horse towards Chu Jiang and others.
As Shi Qing got closer and closer, the smiles on the faces of the surrounding soldiers also faded, and the relaxed battle formation instantly became a piece of iron. However, at this time, there were no sharp spears on the battle formation. , obviously just a simple defensive formation and not hostile.
"Brothers, don't worry, the person coming is from my family!" Chu Jiang said with a smile.
"It turns out that he is a member of Lord Yingwei's tribe. No wonder he arrived at this critical moment. It seems that Lord Yingwei had already made arrangements." Flag officer Jiang Fei said.
"It's just the right time. I can only say that my life should not be cut off!" Chu Jiang said loudly.
"The battalion captain is right!"
The soldiers on the side immediately relaxed when they heard that the person coming was a member of their own Yingwei clan. When they heard Chu Jiang's words, they all laughed at the pandering, yes, life should not be cut off! Without Shi Qing, forty cavalrymen faced seventy infantrymen on the plains, even with Chu Jiang, a late acquired warrior, there would be little hope.
The people who had already made up their minds to die suddenly experienced a sudden turn of events, and one can imagine the joy in their hearts.
"Brother Jiang!"
While everyone was talking, Shi Qing had already arrived beside them. When he saw Chu Jiang, Shi Qing immediately dismounted, cupped his fists and saluted Chu Jiang.
"Brother Shi Qing, you're welcome."
Chu Jiang immediately stepped forward and patted Shi Qing on the shoulder, with a smile on his face. Seeing this scene, the surrounding black-armored soldiers couldn't help but reveal joy on their faces.
"Jiang Fei!" Chu Jiang and Shi Qing exchanged a few false greetings, and then said seriously.
"Sir!" Jiang Fei cupped his fists and Jiang is only a seventh-grade battalion captain, far from being a general. Although he is a military attache, he cannot be called a general, but can only be called a lord.
"You arrange a few people to collect the trophies of my Shi Qing brother, clean the battlefield as soon as possible, collect all the dead horses, and bring them back. Tonight, celebrate for everyone!"
"Okay!" Before Jiang Fei could reply, the soldiers below had already shouted.
"Yes!" Looking at the soldiers around him, Jiang Fei had a smile on his face.
Following Chu Jiang's order, the soldiers began to work individually. They took away all the weapons and armor, and cut off the enemy's left ear as a proof of military merit.
Half an hour later, dozens of people set off again, except for one corps commander who was born in the first mission was to light a fire and burn the corpse half an hour after everyone left!
Whether it is the Northern Barbarians or our own people, there are too many people, too far away from the military town, transportation back and forth is inconvenient, and the danger is extremely high. Although it is a bit cruel, it is most convenient to burn them.
Half an hour later, the corps commander lit the fire and burned the corpse, then rode away. On the other side, Chu Jiang and others had arrived at Military Town C.
Chu Jiang looked at the military town in front of him. The military town was not big. It was smaller than the ancient towns in Chu Jiang's impression. However, the military town in front of him had city walls. Although it was not high, it had city walls and watchtowers. , there is no shortage of arrow towers.
And in the middle of the military town, there was a big flag with the word "Yan" written on it! Watching the soldiers return to camp, the gate of the military town slowly opened, and an old man wearing black leather armor came forward. Dozens of soldiers behind him immediately took over from the soldiers in the battle, and everyone entered the military town together.
The old man looked at the few dozen soldiers behind him, "Sir, what is this?"
"We encountered the Northern Barbarian cavalry, let's go, it's said inside!"
"it is good!"
In the yamen lobby in the center of the town, there were Chu Jiang, Shi Qing, Jiang Fei, and the old man just now. The old man was one of the five flag officers under Chu Jiang, named Wang He.
Jiang Fei told Wang He everything that had happened before. Wang He had a look of sadness on his face and gave Shi Qing a silent fist-cup Qing also returned the gesture, but neither of them said anything.
"But fortunately, I successfully completed the military order given by General Chu, intercepted a barbarian ration team of [-] people, and also killed a cavalry team of [-] people. I made a profit!" Jiang Fei said.
"Indeed, no matter how you say it, this battle can be considered a victory. I will send a message to Beichuan City later to express my merits to the soldiers who participated in the battle!" Chu Jiang also said with some seriousness.
Those soldiers all died under Chu Jiang's nose. Without the protection of these soldiers, Chu Jiang would have been gone long ago.
"By the way, Wang He, is there anything happening in the town while you're out?"
Before Wang He could reply, the door was suddenly pushed open with force. With a bang, two wooden doors hit the wall behind, and a young man with a gloomy face rushed into the room.
"Chu Jiang, how dare you avenge yourself and kill Uncle Ping and Uncle An secretly!"
