At nightfall, after confirming that everything was safe in other directions, Viscount Andre grinned cruelly.
He pulled out his sword and pointed westward with all his strength.
Set off!
The entire Luoxi ruins began to boil.
There were more than 2,000 troops and more than 300 people were left to look after the camels.
The others made a sound and headed west with murderous intent under the leadership of their respective captains.
Climbing the hill to the south of the ruins, Andre held his sword and looked around.
This is close to the Desert of No Return, and most of it is barren land.
There cannot be a large Xiliang tribe around.
Three hundred people stay behind, which is enough no matter what happens.
Thirty miles is not too far.
But horses are good and bad, and in order to take care of each other's speed, the team of 1,700 people arrived at the location until midnight.
The moon and stars are sparse in the sky, and the blood below is thick.
Andre quickly looked at the corpses of the three teams and asked, "Did you find any traces?"
There was silence all around, no one answered.
The north wind seemed to be stronger again, making the surrounding shrubs and bushes rustle.
A long time passed before someone replied with a strong belly.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, the enemy's whereabouts have not been found yet."
Andre laughed as expected.
It would be normal if he didn't find it. If he really found traces of the other party, he would feel it was abnormal.
"Everyone, those Xiliang people who massacred our brothers must be not far to the west."
"Everyone traveled all night without any delay. When they found their old nest, everything inside was left to the brothers to deal with."
The implication is that the wealth snatched belongs to oneself, and the man will kill it without hesitation, but the woman...
"Yes!" All the soldiers became energetic.
I don’t know what happened to the Luoxi tribe before. The wealth and women in the tribe were very few, which made them very unhappy.
This is just great……
The team continued to move forward until dawn.
At this time, it was nearly a hundred miles away from the Luoxi ruins.
The spies from the front hurriedly came to report, "Your Excellency, Viscount, there is a big movement ahead."
Andre snorted angrily.
Even if the spy didn't report it, he still saw it.
There was dust flying in the sky ahead, and at a glance it was clear that a considerable horse team was galloping together.
"Your Excellency, Viscount," the two thousand commanders approached one after another: "Judging from the scale of the dust, there are about two to three hundred riders ahead."
"They should be the thieves who have repeatedly attacked us."
Andrea nodded and silently adjusted his straight viscount uniform.
After a long while, he saw that several people were not moving, and then he glared dissatisfied: "They are all watching what I am doing. As the saying goes, a soldier needs speed, why don't you hurry up and set off?"
The two of them had seen his thoughtful look before and thought he had some instructions.
At this moment, they couldn't help but become speechless. They all responded in embarrassment and quickly turned around and left.
However, the group of people ran forward for more than ten miles, not to mention no one around, not even a hair on the horse was found.
Instead, there were seven and a half large shrubs lying on the ground.
The leaves on the shrubs have fallen sparsely, and the surrounding ground is even more scarred by branches. At a glance, it is clear that these shrubs were left behind when they were dragged back and forth.
be cheated.
Andre came over to take a look, and his expression suddenly changed.
"Go back quickly! The reason why they lured us out was because our camels were the target."
When walking in the desert, camels are almost the best means of transportation.
Therefore, what was left in the ruins of Luoxi was not so much the more than 200 camels, but rather all their logistics, food, grass and luggage.
The others also reacted and suddenly broke into sweat.
They all turned their horses' heads, regardless of their fatigue after marching all night.
"Sir Viscount," Yi Qianchang stuffed some dried meat into his mouth and said hurriedly: "The situation is urgent. I would like to lead the fastest 300 soldiers back to the ruins to support."
"Go. We'll be there soon." Andre was so anxious that he didn't even bother to dust off the Viscount's uniform.
He danced with his sword and said, "No one is allowed to stop, eat and rush back."
"be quick!"
After saying that, he turned back and glanced at the shrubs on the ground, feeling a vague ominous omen.
One thousand leaders led three hundred people and rushed all the way to the ruins.
However, the horse's speed soon slowed down.
People can eat while riding a horse, but horses cannot.
Moreover, they had been traveling all night, and their physical strength was too much, so they slowed down unknowingly.
Fortunately, they were not too far away. We hurried and hurried slowly, and after more than an hour, we could already see the hills to the south of the Luoxi ruins in the distance.
call out!
An arrow suddenly shot out from the bushes on the right side in front of him like lightning, and mercilessly pierced the neck of the thousand-year-old man running at the front.
thump.
He didn't make a sound, and immediately fell down in response.
"Under attack, under attack." Someone screamed, "There are enemies ahead, Qian Chang was hit by an arrow."
This group of soldiers was also well-trained. Some quickly took off the shields on their backs and held them in front of them, while others drew their bows and shot arrows randomly.
However, no more bows and arrows were fired from the front.
Wow.
The bushes trembled.
Several riders rushed out and headed south quickly.
Qian Chang was dead, and the three hundred leaders looked at each other in confusion. You looked at me and I looked at you. No one was there to direct them.
The soldiers under their command almost subconsciously chased the five Ren Nings.
Lu Youtian stood on the hillock designated by Ren Ning, raised his telescope and looked north.
"Come here, come here!" He curled his lips, "It's only three hundred. This little meat is not enough."
Next to them, Allen and Simon were rubbing their hands, "Since there aren't many people coming, why don't you, General Yun Chui, stay still for now? Let us novices go up and start the fight?"
"No." Before Lu Youtian could say anything, Gu Datou was already shaking his head.
He always obeyed Ren Ning, "Old Ren said. We don't have many people. If we die, we will lose one, so we can't let you practice."
"As long as the Beixiong people come, it doesn't matter how many people there are. Everyone will go directly according to the training pattern. The sooner we kill them, the better."
Allen and others looked at each other and nodded in agreement.
After a while, Ren Ning and others hurriedly passed under the hill on horseback.
Lu Youtian stretched his head out to take a look, and estimated the distance.
Chirp!
A sharp whistle sounded.
Ximo, who was injured, shouted: "One hundred and fifty people in front, cut the rope!"
Swish, brush, brush!
The herdsmen lurking on the other side of the hill had already pricked up their ears.
Upon hearing the order, they did not hesitate to swing their meat cleavers and cut the rope in front of them.
Boo hoo hoo.
The big slingshot that was ready to go immediately shot the packed sheepskin package far away.
At this time, three hundred Beixiong soldiers happened to be passing by.
what?
They subconsciously looked up.
Those sheepskin packages were not tightly tied, and after such a tossing, they suddenly fell apart.
Wow!
The sand, soil and even cow dung contained in it fell down like heavenly flowers, covering them all.
"Ah. My eyes are clear."
"Enemy attack, bah bah, enemy attack! My eyes."
…
"Kill!" Gu Datou raised his hammers and shouted, taking the lead on his mount and charging down.
