Chapter 18: on the road
In addition, there were more than a thousand men, all of whom seemed to be recruited temporarily. Even more will be recruited in the next few days!
"Whether it's up the mountain or down the mountain, it's hard to escape!" Qin Yi secretly said in his heart.
Fortunately, his father is currently on the Qingwei Dao Palace, so there shouldn't be any major problems! This also gave him no worries!
When the situation is bad, he can get out at any time!
evening.
Master Wang Qingxuan came back after discussing matters.
Gather all the people in the dormitory.
"Master, how is the situation? What will we be arranged to do then?" Zhao Shaojie asked hurriedly.
"After we negotiated with that Xue Yinhu, 2nd dan and above will be incorporated into the first team of the vanguard camp, and those with 2nd rank and below will be incorporated into the city defense team or one of the teams escorting food and salaries. This is the best arrangement we have won!" Wang Qingxuan sighed.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the senior brothers who were above the second stage of cultivation were not very good, and those who were in the first stage and below were all excited. As long as they did not go to the front line, the danger would be greatly reduced!
Qin Yi was also relieved, because on the surface, he didn't even have a level of cultivation, he was just an ordinary disciple.
"It's better than putting all of them into the vanguard camp. All arrangements will come down tomorrow, you guys, just do it yourself!" Wang Qingxuan waved his hand, signaling the crowd to disperse.
Everyone left with their own thoughts.
The next day, Qin Yi and eight other apprentice brothers were incorporated into the grain transport team.
Except for one named Chen Jie, there is another senior brother named Liu Haibin, all of them are in the first stage of cultivation. The rest are the same as Qin Yi. It was not long after he started his career, and he has not yet achieved the cultivation of blood and tendons, not even one stage. They belong to ordinary people. category.
After the task was arranged, Chen Jie took Qin Yi and other nine people towards the city. It is said that the warehouse for food and salaries is in the city!
After the army leaves, we will have to rely on their grain transport teams to transport them to the front line!
Not long after Qin Yi and others entered the city, Xue Yinhu led the army towards Sanjiang County, the next county.
…
The next day, the battle report came back. It was said that the army of the county government had already fought against the rebels in Sanjiang County this morning.
Inside the city, outside the granary, Qin Yi and others are on standby here at any time.
"More than three thousand and tens of thousands? Is there a chance of winning?" Chen Jie said.
Everyone knows that there are only 1,000 elite soldiers in the county government army, and the remaining 2,000 people are recruited in various ways, and most of them are civilians.
"I guess there aren't many elite soldiers on the rebel side. There are tens of thousands. I'm afraid most of them are made up of refugees!" Liu Haibin said.
"That's right, if there were really tens of thousands of rebels, they would have killed Jinyuan County long ago, and even directly killed the county mansion!"
The morning of the third day.
Finally came the mission.
Five soldiers in armor ordered hundreds of people. For the time being, they were organized into the second grain transportation team. Then they received a batch of supplies and went directly out of the city to Rongcang Town in Sanjiang County. It is said that the army is currently there and there. Rebels at war!
Among the hundred people, in addition to Qin Yi and other nine brothers and sisters, there are more than a dozen monks, and there are more than a dozen gang members with [Iron Wolf Gang] embroidered on their clothes, and the rest are civilian husbands. However, before departure, everyone was given a standard long knife!
More than 20 donkey carts loaded with supplies, and more than 100 people set off like this.
This distance can be reached in about a day!
In the afternoon, everyone hurriedly rushed and finally arrived at Cangwu Town.
Along the way, there were almost no accidents, just saw many people fleeing in the direction of Jinyuan City along the way.
The grain transport team did not choose to enter the town, but continued to set off towards Rongcang Town through the official road.
After half an hour.
A fork in the road.
There are trees all around.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a horse stepping on the left side of the road!
"Stop! There is an enemy situation, everyone is on guard!" The leading soldier shouted.
Everyone clenched the knives in their hands one after another, and no one knew whether it was an enemy or a friend!
At this moment, Qin Yi and his party were at the front of the team.
"If you are an enemy later, you should act according to the opportunity. It is important to save your life!" Chen Jie said in a low voice.
Everyone nodded.
As soon as the voice fell, everyone saw a team of more than 20 cavalry appear in their sight.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack! Prepare to fight!"
Cavalry!
Absolutely an infantry nightmare!
"Hahaha! Sure enough, we intercepted the enemy's food delivery team. Brothers, kill me! Not a single one!" The black-faced man at the head laughed horribly.
The cavalry was extremely fast, and quickly rushed to the front of the grain transport team.
"Kill! No one is allowed to back down, or we will deal with it by military law!" The five soldiers shouted, taking the lead, they took out the bows and arrows behind them and started shooting!
But in the face of such a scene, the dozens of civilians were so frightened that their legs became weak, and some of them couldn't even hold their weapons.
Even those monks and members of the Iron Wolf Gang turned pale.
Boom!
More than 20 cavalrymen suddenly crashed into the crowd, shouting and killing.
Pooh!
Puff puff!
Heads fly to the sky...
With such a **** scene, the villagers were frightened and fled towards the woods on both sides.
"Don't run away, don't run away!" The leading **** saw that the team on his side collapsed instantly, and he shouted angrily.
"Haha, even a second dan even dares to be distracted during the confrontation!" The black-faced man sneered, and the horse-chopping sword in his hand suddenly slashed away.
"You!" The leading **** quickly resisted with a long knife, but was smashed to the ground by a huge force.
"You... turned out to be three paragraphs!"
Pooh!
A big head flew into the sky.
"Escape, escape to the forest, escape in dispersal!" Qin Yi roared at the nearby apprentice brothers.
He could see that these twenty or so cavalrymen were all 1st rank, especially the black-faced man, who was 3rd rank!
When will you not escape and wait?
Fortunately, when the cavalry just rushed over, the nine of them retreated for a distance.
"Escape!" Chen Jie yelled directly, didn't he see that two of the five soldiers on his side were already cold?
Qin Yi covered his head and ran towards the woods on the right.
Under the last resort, he will not reveal his strength!
Once his strength is revealed, he will definitely be sent to the battlefield!
"Haha, I want to escape! Die for me!"
A cavalry began to chase and kill those fleeing in the direction of the woods.
And behind Qin Yi, there was a cavalry chasing him.
"Don't run away, just lay down for Grandpa!"
Qin Yi turned his head and saw that the distance between the two sides was no more than seven or eight meters.
He raised his speed a little.
One end sank into the forest by the roadside.
"Think I can't catch you if you hide in the woods?" The cavalry rode in.
The woods on the side of the road are relatively sparse, and they begin to thicken when they reach the depths, so the horses can still move forward.
Qin Yi finally slowed down after running more than 20 meters away.
