Cao Xiaojun was ready to die, but at this moment, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in the distance, and the next moment he heard the sound of muskets.

"Bah bang bang!"

The intensive sound of musketry shocked Cao Xiaojun. Then he opened his eyes and saw that several Tatars rushing towards him had been beaten into sieves.

Cao Xiaojun's face lit up. The one who could use fire guns on the grassland must be the Lantian Army.

Thinking of this, Cao Xiaojun couldn't see a cavalry company of about a hundred people in the distance charging towards them, and the flag the cavalry company raised read: Lantian Cavalry Brigade and so on.

"Cavalry brigade, from Wang Guixiang's department."

Cao Xiaojun muttered. At this time, the leader of the cavalry company looked at Cao Xiaojun who was lying on the ground and shouted: "Quick, save people, they should be our scouts."

After hearing this, the cavalry behind them immediately took out the compound bows on their horses, drew up their battle formations, and attacked here.

Gulitai frowned slightly when he saw this, and the Tatar behind him said: "They are the cavalry of Guihua City. Gulitai is a tough guy."

Gulitai frowned when he saw this. The next moment he took out the bow in his hand. Without any nonsense, he bent the bow and set an arrow and aimed directly at Cao Xiaojun. Since the other party came to rescue the troops, he could not defeat the other party with fifty people.

A hundred-man cavalry company.

But this person must not be alive, otherwise the location of his camp will be exposed, and then it will be really dangerous. Thinking of this, Gulitai shot an arrow directly at Cao Xiaojun.

As a Manchu eagle shooter, it would be too easy to shoot an injured Cao Xiaojun at this distance, with almost no chance of missing the target.

You must know that he is a marksman who can ride a horse and shoot down the flying eagles in the sky.

The moving targets are always on target, but now Cao Xiaojun, a fixed target, is almost giving out points.

Thinking of this, the bow and arrow had already left the string. At this moment, everyone felt that Cao Xiaojun was finished. This man had no hope of living anymore.

After Gulitai took off the bow and arrow, the corners of his mouth could not help but turn up, showing a confident smile. In his heart, the moment the bow and arrow took off the string, Cao Xiaojun was already dead.

No exceptions.

The bow and arrow shot through the air. Seeing this scene, Cao Xiaojun's eyes widened. He was unwilling to give in. He could bring the news out just by looking at it. Why would such a change happen?

He didn't want to die, at least he didn't want to die before the information was brought out, but how could life and death be determined by one's own thoughts? The God of Death had already waved to him.

"Asshole, you damn Tatar!"

Seeing the Tatars suddenly shooting arrows at their wounded comrades, the charging cavalry company commander roared angrily, but there was nothing he could do and he was beyond his reach.

At this distance, he couldn't save Cao Xiaojun at all. Seeing his comrades die in front of his eyes was definitely an insult to the cavalry company commander, who wished he could kill all the Tatars in front of him right now.

An unknown murderous intention rushed straight towards Tianling. The cavalry company commander kicked the horse's belly even more fiercely and rushed directly towards Gulitai.

Woohoo~

Just when everyone thought that Cao Xiaojun was bound to die, suddenly a horse crow sounded, and the next moment a horse with a red mane with mixed hair stood in front of Cao Xiaojun.

Gulitai's arrow from the string hit the horse's leg directly. The red-maned horse neighed in pain, but its body did not move, blocking Cao Xiaojun.

"Xiao Hong!"

Cao Xiaojun's eyes turned red when he saw the red-maned horse that blocked an arrow for him. Isn't this his own horse, Xiaohong?

At this moment, Cao Xiaojun was inexplicably moved. He didn't expect that the one who saved his life in the end was his own war horse. No wonder when he joined the cavalry class on the first day, the squad leader said to himself that in the cavalry class, apart from his comrades, the best person is him.

War horse.

You must treat your war horse well. They all have spirituality. If you treat it sincerely, you may be able to save your own life on the battlefield. Therefore, in the cavalry class, everyone calls their war horses brothers.

At first, Cao Xiaojun didn't understand, but at this moment, Cao Xiaojun seemed to understand what the squad leader said. War Horse was indeed his best brother.

Thinking of this, Cao Xiaojun was inexplicably moved, but Xiaohong was shot in the right leg at this time and could only stand on three legs, but even so, Xiaohong still blocked Cao Xiaojun's body.

Gulitai was furious when he saw this scene, but there was nothing he could do. The variegated red-maned horse blocked Cao Xiaojun tightly with his own body. No matter how superb his archery skills were, he could not make the bow and arrow bend.

The bow and arrow could not turn, so the threat to him was almost zero. At this time, the Han cavalry also rushed up. Gulitai sighed and said: "Withdraw."

Being a slave means being brave, but being brave doesn't mean being stupid. This is obviously unacceptable. If you don't run away, are you waiting to be surrounded by a hundred cavalry?

Moreover, they came out this time to hunt down the intruders, but now their goal has failed. Since it has failed, there is no value in continuing. People cannot do things without value.

Gulitai ran away with the Jiannu cavalry, and the Lantian cavalry company commander did not go up. The purpose of their cavalry company was to rescue the lone cavalry scouts, not to attack the Tatar cavalry.

They met just now, and the charge was for rescue. Now they have escaped. If they continue to pursue, this is not the scope of their mission, and there is probably a Tatar camp nearby. With the one hundred cavalry in his hand, if the top

If you are led by the opponent to the vicinity of the opponent's camp or within the ambush circle, you will not be able to escape if your entire army is wiped out.

This kind of thing has not happened before. In recent years, Wang Guixiang's cavalry regiment has suffered a lot of casualties. There have been several cases where the cavalry regiment was wiped out by the enemy.

Later, they were severely criticized by the brigade commander.

Moreover, the brigade commander was so angry that he even said that those brothers who died in battle because of impulsiveness were not considered martyrs.

Of course, talk is talk, and in the end, when it comes to commenting on the martyrs, none of them are missing.

However, this incident was also criticized by the Cavalry Brigade as a negative example. The brigade commander said at the time: "Soldiers have a bounden duty to obey orders, especially on this fortress, fighting the Tatars, the Mongols, and the Uzbeks.

, you need to control your emotions more. If you can't even control your emotions, then go back to Lantian, where you are allowed to make mistakes, but not here, because a small mistake of yours may lead to the death of countless comrades."

When the cavalry company saw Gulitai and his men running away, they turned back. The cavalry company commander and his men jumped off their horses and helped Cao Xiaojun up on the ground. Seeing that Cao Xiaojun was seriously injured, he said: "Which army do you belong to? Where did those Tatars come from?"

Come, why are we chasing you?"

At this time, Cao Xiaojun's face was pale due to excessive blood loss. He looked at the cavalry company commander and said: "I am a scout cavalryman from the Li Dingguo Cavalry Regiment. Today our squad was crossing the lower reaches of the Huaihe River and found a Tatar behind a hillside thirty miles away from the Reed Beach.

A transit point for children.”

“Tatar transit point!”

After hearing this, the cavalry company commander's eyes lit up and he said: "Really, I can't be wrong."

Cao Xiaojun shook his head and said: "You must not be mistaken. One of our classes saw it with our own eyes. There are two-meter-high grain stacks there, as well as a large number of cattle and sheep. It is obviously a logistics supply place."

After hearing this, the cavalry company commander's eyes brightened even more, and he followed Cao Xiaojun and said, "Where are the others in your class?"

After hearing this, Cao Xiaojun couldn't help but burst into tears: "They stayed to resist the Tatars in order to protect me. Now that I think about it, they have already sacrificed their lives."

Thinking of Cao Xiaojun, he burst into tears. Looking at Cao Xiaojun like this, the cavalry company commander's eyes became wet. He felt the same way. He patted Cao Xiaojun on the shoulder and said, "Okay, you are all good."

After saying this, the cavalry company commander said: "Wang Wude, you take ten people to escort this little brother back to Commander Li Dingguo's cavalry regiment, and inform Commander Li of the news. The rest of the people follow me, and we will bring back the bodies of Brother Lantian."

, we can’t let them die on the grassland.”

"yes."

After hearing this, Wang Wude immediately ordered a group of his troops and led Cao Xiaojun to Li Dingguo's garrison.

The cavalry company commander led his men and horses in the direction pointed by Cao Xiaojun to find the bodies of Lantian soldiers who died in the grassland. Lantian soldiers could die fighting for Lantian, but they must not leave their bones on the grassland.

Returning his soul to his hometown is the treatment that the heroes who died in Lantian deserved.

Of course, even if you recover the body, you have to do what you can. For example, the place where the squad leader and others died in the battle is not far from here, and there is no Tatar ambush, so they dare to rush over in a majestic manner.

As for Xiaowu who was killed by Gulitai near the Tatar transfer station, the cavalry company was not prepared to go. To collect the remains of such martyrs, a large army must be dispatched.

Cao Xiaojun was quickly escorted to Li Dingguo's station. Li Dingguo's station was in the middle reaches of the Huaihe River. At this time, Cao Xiaojun was escorted to the military camp.

The military doctors in the army immediately gave treatment. Cao Xiaojun was seriously injured. The arrow from Gulitai almost penetrated Cao Xiaojun's shoulder blade. Now he needs surgery to remove the bow and arrow. Otherwise, if time goes by, Cao Xiaojun's arm will be useless.

Before the operation, Cao Xiaojun reported the information to Li Dingguo. Li Dingguo listened to Cao Xiaojun's report, especially when he heard that the soldiers in Cao Xiaojun's squad even sacrificed their lives to delay the transmission of the information to protect him. Li Dingguo was stunned on the spot for a long time.

This touched Li Dingguo very much. As a former bandit, Li Dingguo was already used to seeing life and death, but this spirit of being willing to die for information and his comrades still made Li Dingguo unable to let go for a long time.

Wang Jiadong saw something unusual about Li Dingguo, so he asked the surrounding soldiers to prepare. The army was about to leave. He followed Li Dingguo and came to Li Dingguo. He looked at Li Dingguo and said, "What's the matter, Dingguo?"

Li Dingguo looked at Wang Jiadong and said, "Jiadong, now I understand why Lantian is so scary."

Wang Jiadong did not interrupt Li Dingguo. Li Dingguo said at this time: "Jiadong, I always thought that the strength of Lantian's army was mainly due to its powerful firearms. Without these firearms, these young soldiers living in a superior life would definitely be

They don’t have much fighting power, and they can’t defeat the rebels who dare to fight for their stutter.”

"But today I feel like I was wrong."

Li Dingguo looked at Wang Jiadong and said. After hearing this, Wang Jiadong looked at Li Dingguo and asked, "What's wrong?"

Li Dingguo said: "Firearms may be part of Lantian's strength, but his real strength lies in the human heart. This is something that people who don't join Lantian or go deep into Lantian's army won't understand."

"When we were rebels, we had no righteousness for our family and country in our minds. We only had one goal in mind: to have enough food to eat. So when we captured the state capital and obtained food, we had enough food to eat, and we lost the spirit of fighting. The army's

The combat effectiveness fell directly to the bottom, resulting in the entire rebel army basically having no combat effectiveness."

"So some people will say that the combat effectiveness of our rebels fluctuates greatly. If we fight with the wind, we are invincible. If we fight with the wind, we will be like a group of sheep. The reason is also very simple. If we win the battle with the wind, those in front can grab more good things, but if we fight with the headwind, we will win.

, if you run too slowly, you will be the one who dies."

"Therefore, our so-called rebels are just a group of bandits who only have themselves."

Li Dingguo said with a bitter smile: "On the contrary, looking at Lantian, before joining the Lantian Army, I did not expect that the Lantian Army would be so terrifying."

"The army in Lantian is not independent in Lantian. In Li Chaosheng's words, the Lantian Army is the people's army. I didn't understand it before and thought Li Chaosheng was just shouting slogans, but now I know that the Lantian Army is the people's army."

"Li Chaosheng is worthy of being a tycoon, a tyrant who knows how to govern the world. He managed Lantian to bring prosperity to the people, and then let the people of Lantian serve as soldiers. If the people of Lantian want to protect the land, houses, and food they own in Lantian, they must

The original motivation to protect one's own things against the forces that want to harm Lantian is much greater than the original motivation to rob and make a fortune. People may not be jealous of other people's wealth, but they will never allow their own things to be lost.

"

"So if anyone attacks Lantian, be careful. The Lantian army is really desperate."

"Furthermore, Li Chaosheng's personal charm is so powerful that the entire Lantian people are grateful for Li Chaosheng's kindness. In addition, Lantian has a special organization to praise Li Chaosheng. Now, in the eyes of Lantian people, Li Chaosheng, a county official, is like a god.

Almost everyone in Lantian is willing to die for Li Chaosheng."

"Gradually, this admiration for Li Chaosheng began to transform into social trends. In the army, there is a spirit of sacrifice and dedication. When I first joined the army, I dismissed the political classes that the army had to conduct every night, thinking that this was

It's ridiculous, but now it seems that it is not the case. This is a superb method that I can't understand. It makes the people of Lantian extremely united. It makes the people of Lantian not afraid of life and death and willing to make sacrifices and sacrifices."

"The cavalry class is the best performance. It's amazing. It's simply amazing."

Li Dingguo said excitedly, and after a long time he spoke again: "Such Lantian, even if he does not have powerful firearms, still uses primitive broadswords, the so-called rebels will definitely not be their opponent, and the Tatars will not be their opponent.

What's more, Lan Tian attaches so much importance to technology, technology, coupled with his invincible fighting will, Lan Tian is invincible, and this world should belong to him, Li Chaosheng."
