More than a dozen men wearing leather armor and various weapons hanging on their saddles were moving forward at a speed along an official road that crossed the woods. While moving forward, they looked around vigilantly, and their right hands were also placed on the knife handle at their waists. They saw that they were old bandits of ages, and their vigilance was extraordinary.

After they left the woods, they came to a large open area. At this time, the vigilance on the faces of the whistleblowers relaxed a little. The leader of the whistleblower breathed, turned his head to his companion behind him and said, "Okay, the Ningguo Mansion is twenty miles ahead, everyone..."

"Bang……"

Before the whistle-snooping man finished speaking, a crisp sound of musket sounded, a blood mist spurted out of the chest of the whistle-snooping man, and after shaking his horse twice, he fell heavily from the horse's back like a heavy sack.

The sound of the musket seemed to be a signal, and then the sound of the muskets sounded one after another. More than a dozen whistle detectives following him quickly fell down halfway.

However, the remaining whistle-seeking figures are worthy of being the elite among the bandits. They responded in just a few seconds, turning their horses toward the way they came.

When these stumblers escaped, more than a dozen people stood up in the bushes more than a hundred steps away in front of them. These people were wearing half-body armor made of stainless steel, with steel helmets on their heads, and Nimi rifles in their hands. It was the Jiangning Army's night stop.

Seeing the bandits fleeing, the leader of the leader did not lead the people to chase after him. He frowned and said, "Brothers, go up and search those people, and then go back to report to the general."

"Here..."

"What, you found the bandits' probing whistle twenty miles away?"

Cao Yingmao was nervous when he received the report. He had just received the order from the Duke of the State, but he found the whereabouts of the bandits who were hiding from the whistle. And he came from the direction of Anqing Mansion, which was very likely the bandits who escaped from Anqing Mansion.

After hearing this news, Cao Yingmao couldn't help but frown. According to the information sent by the Duke of the State, the number of escaped bandits was about 3,000, and it was not difficult to defeat them, but the Duke of the State said that what he wanted was to wipe out, which was a bit difficult.

You should know that the ability of bandits to fight may be very loose, but the ability to escape with oil on the soles of their feet is first-rate. Once they find something wrong, they will immediately slip away. Even if they want to chase them, it will not be easy for them to chase them. What's more, what Yang Feng said in the order was to wipe out the entire annihilation, which is very difficult.

"Come here, call Huang Jinsong, Zhang Xingfan, Zou Xiangshui, Wang An and Yu Feng and others."

"Here!"

The five people Cao Yingmao mentioned were all Qianmao under his command, and soon the five Qianmao came to him.

"Everyone."

Cao Yingmao didn't talk nonsense, and immediately showed Yang Feng's order straight to the point, and then said, "You have also seen the order of the Duke of the Kingdom. He asked us to destroy the bandits who escaped from Anqing Mansion, so that no one could escape. Just now, our night was not shocked, but to work with their whistle inside and outside. Now everyone is talking about what to do, right?"

The feeling of several Qianmao was the same as that of Cao Yingmao when he saw this order, and his brows were frowning.

After a long time, a thousand-man said in a difficult situation: "General, this is a bit difficult. You don't know the virtues of those bandits. They run faster than rabbits. Not to mention three thousand living people, even if three thousand rabbits scatter, it will be difficult for us to catch them all."

"Where are you thinking this way?"

Cao Yingmao looked at the silent Qianmao unhappily and said with a stern face: "You are all fourth-rank officials nowadays, you are all from the Duke of the National Palace and wear the Duke of the National Palace. Now the Duke of the National Palace asks you to do things, but you want to shirk it. Is this still a thing that people do?

Now I am not discussing with you, but ordering you. If this errand is not done well, the Duke of the State blames you and you may have to take off your skin and go back to Jiangningwei Farm to farm. Does anyone want to go now?"

Everyone shook their heads together.

If it were a few years ago, farming would not be a bad thing for them.

Over the past few hundred years of the Ming Dynasty, farming in the military households of the garrison has become an instinct, but fighting is rare.

But since Yang Feng entered Jiangning Guard, Jiangning Guard became Jiangning Army, and the officers and soldiers of the Guard have also changed from farmers to real soldiers. Whether they receive glory or money they get, they are far from comparable to farming. Now, letting them go back to farming is even more uncomfortable than beating them in public.

A Qianmao gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't it just three thousand bandits? We have five thousand soldiers. As long as we can surround them, even if they are heavenly soldiers and generals descend to earth, they can destroy them all."

"Old Wang is right. The combat power of the bandits is ordinary. As long as they can surround them, these people will be unable to fly."

"Nonsense, we all know this, the question now is how to surround them."

The group started to quarrel, and during the quarrel, a strategy against bandits began to emerge...

The news that Ming Jun refused to accept the wards in front of the station soon reached Tian Jianxiu's ears.

"You mean, you won't accept the night when you meet Ming Jun?"

"Yes, Master Tian, ​​everyone encountered the ambush that Ming Jun did not take at night, more than 20 miles from Ningguo Mansion. Boss Bai killed the Ming Jun's musket on the spot, and the brothers were also seriously injured. The villain still relied on his horse to save his life."

Looking at the whistle-seeing man who was still in shock, Tian Jianxiu waved his hand to signal him to retreat, and began to think about it himself.

Originally, I thought that Ningguo Mansion had been captured by the rebel army, and the person who took Ningguo Mansion was Liu Zongmin, who had a good relationship with him. As long as he could get along with Liu Zongmin, it would be safe. But I didn’t expect that before I arrived at Ningguo Mansion, I would encounter the Ming army’s night stop. Does this mean that there are a large group of Ming troops in front?

"No... it shouldn't be that coincidence. How could Ming Jun run ahead of him? It should be just Ming Jun's small stock of it that doesn't stop at night."

Tian Jianxiu thought about it for a moment and made a decision. Now that he has come here, he will have to meet with the Jiangning Army's large group of troops.

To fight with the Jiangning Army in the wild would be death. Besides, he felt that it was unlikely that there would be a large group of Ming troops ahead. After all, no matter how powerful the Jiangning Army was, it would be impossible for them to fly over his head. Now they are less than fifty miles away from Jiangning Mansion. If you work harder, you might be able to spend the night in Jiangning Mansion tonight.
