Chapter 34 Suddenly

The spear in front was pressing step by step, trying to circumnavigate from both sides, but they were intercepted. In the end, the more than 20 horse thieves who entered the camp could only leave more than ten bodies and escape from the caravan camp.

Gao Jin jumped into the van, and at this time he had already changed his horn bow. The horse thieves were forced back by them just now, and they all escaped with their shields. Now the horse thieves outside the camp are the best targets.

He fired his bow and arrow, but Gao Jin didn't seek accuracy. He just shot a series of beads at the horse thieves gathered outside the camp, and shot two or three more people in one go. He didn't know whether it was death or life, but the remaining horse thieves fled in all directions.

"Young Master, do we win?" The monkey with a lot of color looked at the escaping horse thieves, with a look of astonishment and ecstasy.

"It's just a temporary victory." Gao Jin did not arrive at the joy of these horse thieves retreating. He stared at the dark wilderness where fighting sounds came from ahead, and his fists clenched. Only when his father and uncle defeated the horse thieves' team could he win this battle.

Just when Gao Jin was a little worried, a long-distance torch team suddenly lit up in the wilderness in the distance, and then the sound of horse hooves from a large group of horses came. Gao Jin's heart suddenly became irritated. He thought of Zhang Gui and his official army. Although the official army was weak, Zhang Gui and his servants were not weak.

Gao Jin couldn't see clearly and did not dare to leave the camp. However, with the participation of the official army, the chaotic battlefield ahead quickly came to an end, and the Black Sha Horse Thief retreated.

Soon, Gao Jin saw that his father and uncles who were riding back were injured, and two uncles were seriously injured, "Dad?"

"Let's talk about it when you go in."

Gao Chong waved his hand. At this time, Gao Jin found that his team was following the official army, and he was stunned. Although he guessed that the official army probably helped him, he still couldn't believe it when he saw it with his own eyes.

The official army also entered the camp. Gao Jin learned from Lao Chen that after his father and his wife intercepted the Black Sha Horse Rider's horse team, the two sides fought at a horse, but they actually stood up. The bandit leader of the Black Sha Horse Rider's horse Rider was also a powerful cavalry general. After fighting with his father for several matches, they could not decide the outcome.

However, no matter how brave and good at fighting, my father and uncles suffered a loss in number, they almost lost their lives after being besieged. If the official army had not suddenly arrived, even if they finally killed the Black Shama thief, they would have suffered heavy casualties.

"Zhang Gui and his subordinates killed at least seven or eight horse thieves." Old Chen lowered his voice when he saw Gao Jin looking at the official army, saying, "He just saw Zhang Gui chop off a horse thief's head with his own eyes. When he came back together, Zhang Gui also said that he was ordered to wipe out the black sand horse thieves because the group of horse thieves stole the Jiang family's things without opening their eyes.

After hearing Lao Chen's explanation, Gao Jin frowned. He had heard of the Jiang family that the seven generals of the sect were the largest generals in the Camel City, controlling many trade routes and transactions. The black sand horse thieves robbed the Jiang family's caravan, and it was reasonable for the Jiang family to ask Zhang Gui to patrol the border to suppress the bandits.

In front of the bonfire that was burning vigorously, Zhang Gui looked at the young man beside Gao Chong with a smile on his face, "It turns out that he is a tiger father without a dog son, Brother Gao has given birth to a good son!"

When Zhang Gui entered the camp, he saw about ten horse thieves in the van formation. When he saw Gao Chong asking about the battle situation, he carefully looked Gao Jin and had some thoughts in his mind.

"Mr. Zhang is so ridiculous, this kid is still far from it!" Gao Chong saw Zhang Gui praise Gao Jin, although he was humble, his face was very satisfied.

Even if he doesn't like Zhang Gui, now it is Zhang Gui who has brought the official army to help kill the repelling thieves. Gao Chong's words are much more polite.

"I've met Mr. Zhang."

At the gesture of his father, Gao Jin bowed to Zhang Gui. He had seen Zhang Gui from afar when he was in Hekou Fort before, but he was not as clear as he could see it now.

Zhang Guisheng had a square mouth and wide face, his beard and breast length were a bit majestic, but Gao Jin felt that Zhang Gui's eyes that were always squinting made him look a little gloomy.

"No need to be polite." Zhang Gui waved his hand and then looked at Gao Chong, "Brother Gao, I heard you plan to let Nephew Gao take the martial arts exam?"

"Where did Lord Zhang hear it?" Gao Chong's voice became a little cold. He worked so hard over the years to allow his son to pass the martial arts exam in the future and gain a future in the army.

"Although we have many military households in Hekou Fort, there are only one son who can be civil and military in the younger generation." Zhang Gui said calmly. If you want to take the martial arts exam, you must first become a martial arts student.

Since Emperor Yingzong ordered that "all the garrisons in the world have established academic studies", this martial arts has been controlled by local generals. The reason is that the hereditary military post was reduced by three levels due to the court system. However, the children in the family can obtain the status of a martial juren or a martial jinshi, and they can directly add first and second levels when they attack the post.

There are naturally martial arts in Shenmu Castle, but almost all the students studying in the official house were from the government office. Zhang Gui had been in martial arts back then and knew very well how difficult it was for Gao Chong to neither want to rely on the generals as a lackey, nor to let his son enter martial arts.

"Brother Gao, to be honest, Nephew Gao is not young at all. If he doesn't enter the martial arts school, it will be delayed." Zhang Gui continued. Although he wanted to kill Gao Chong, he wanted to subdue Gao Chong and his son. Everyone would choose the latter when buying and laying golden eggs.

If Gao Chong and his son were willing to surrender, the Gao family caravan and Gao Jin would be the hens that could lay golden eggs. Zhang Gui looked at Gao Chong with a gloomy face and threw out his own bargaining chips, "Brother Gao, I know you have a close relationship with Zheng Qianhu, but he is an outsider and a student of Shenmubaowu. I am qualified to recommend one person."

"Mr. Zhang, you might as well say something." Gao Chong frowned. Of course, he knew that it was difficult to advance in the martial arts of Shenmubao. It was not uncommon for Zhang Gui to be qualified to recommend him. However, as Zhang Gui's only one hundred households, the so-called recommendation was just to ask the children in the family to be the lackeys of the young masters who were in charge of the relationship.

"Brother Gao, you have wasted your years, so what can you do if you have all your skills?" Zhang Gui chuckled. He was overwhelmed by Gao Chong when he was young, but now he is a real-powered household. Gao Chong is not just a famous general flag. Gao Chong is not willing to cling to the powerful and powerful, so he ends up in such a dismal way.

"As long as Gao Xianniang calls me an adopted father, don't talk about this Shenmubao martial student..."

"Mr. Zhang is kind, Gao is grateful, but my Gao family has always been stubborn and I have no luck to recognize my adoptive father." Gao Chong didn't expect that Zhang Gui had such an idea, and his face suddenly turned dark. Zhang Gui only had a hundred households who dared to learn from those generals to accept adopted sons. This was clearly humiliating him, father and son.

Gao Jin is also not good-looking, but he is not interested in recognizing his adoptive father. Nowadays, the generals like to accept adopted sons, saying that they prosper and lose both of them. But to put it bluntly, they are just senior servants who are taken for their own children.

"Since Brother Gao doesn't want to, then forget it." Zhang Gui still smiled on his face, but he had already regarded Gao Chong and his son as dead in his heart, and actually refused his final recruitment. That's no wonder he was cruel and ruthless.

Getting up from the bonfire, Zhang Gui patted the dust on his body and said to the housekeeper beside him, "Let's go."

Gao Chong's face was gloomy and he stood up to see him off. At this time, a harsh whistle sound suddenly sounded outside the camp, and then he heard the officials waiting outside the camp shouting, "The horse thief is coming!"

Zhang Gui pretended to be surprised and quickly walked to the van formation and said to the group of officers and soldiers under him, "Why don't you come in and form a formation to meet the enemy."

The formation of vans naturally left a passage for cavalry to attack quickly. When Zhang Gui's orders were heard, the officials rushed in, and the veterans of the caravans who were guarding were stunned. After all, the officials were helping them to repel the horse thieves just now.

"Brother Gao, it seems that we have to fight against the horse thief together." Zhang Gui looked at Gao Chong who was following him and said in a deep voice.

At this time, most of the official troops had already rushed into the camp. Although Gao Chong was a little hesitant, the sound of horse hooves rumbling outside the camp sounded, and he immediately made a decision, "Then I'll listen to Lord Zhang. After returning, Gao should offer the silver."

"It's easy to say." Zhang Gui smiled, his greedy look on his face, which made Gao Chong feel a little relieved.

The government army began to line up, and Zhang Gui and his subordinates got on the van, holding bows and arrows in their hands. Gao Chong led his men to the horse and pressed the formation behind the government army. As long as the horse thieves' offensive was blocked, they would break out of the camp and disperse the horse thieves.

"Xiaojin, you stay in the camp. If something is wrong, leave immediately." Gao Chong ordered Gao Jin. He was always on guard against Zhang Gui, so he simply asked the official army to form a formation to defend, and he would all get on his horse. If there was any case, he would also ride out.

"I understand, dad." Gao Jin nodded. At this time, Wei Lianhai walked out of the camp, handed a package to Mulan, and whispered a few instructions.

Soon the horse thieves arrived in front of the camp, and Zhang Gui and his servants began to shoot arrows, but they were pressed by the more fierce arrows of the horse thieves and couldn't raise their heads and jumped out of the van.

Gao Chong could not have imagined that Zhang Gui was as slaughter as he was. Eleven bows could not suppress the horse thieves, so he said to his brothers around him, "Let's go out first and see what the situation is like, so there is room for maneuver."

However, before Gao Chong finished speaking, he could only hear the sound of bowstrings, and then a dense wave of arrows were covering him, "Brother!" Almost instantly, the old man beside him flew over and threw him off the horse.

Gao Jin almost watched Zhang Gui and his subordinates suddenly shoot arrows at his father together, and then the line-up officials turned around and came to them.

This incident happened very quickly. The camp was not spacious. Almost instantly, the government army squeezed into a group with them. The cavalry had no room for speed up and was no different from the living target in the small space. Gao Jin only saw the uncles and uncles dismount and fight with the government army.

"Dad!" Gao Jinti's spear hit the place where the official army swarmed up, where his father was dismissed.
