Catching Monsters

Chapter 128 Military Tactics
Hearing this, Jiang Yun couldn't help but glared at him and said, "You are dreaming, do you think I can drive a carriage?"

"Just drive the carriage yourself!"

Xu Xiaogang glared at Jiang Yun and thought to himself, just wait and see how I will tell on you to my sister.

The huge convoy slowly left the city.

There was no one else in the convoy transporting the military pay except thirty Jinyiwei.

Of course, that's enough.

After all, it is such a large amount of money, the route needs to be kept strictly confidential and there must be no risk of leakage.

Since there are already thirty Jinyiwei and the protection strength is sufficient, it is natural that the fewer people the better.

During the day, the team walked on the wide official road, and would occasionally encounter merchant caravans on the road. When these merchant caravans saw a group of Jinyiwei escorting them, they would all give way.

Xu Xiaogang drove the carriage with a smile on his face, saying, "The court has delayed the payment of military pay for almost half a year. When my father heard that the money had been released, he was relieved."

"If you don't give us money, the soldiers guarding the northern border will soon be out of luck."

Jiang Yun asked curiously, "You are probably familiar with the North Territory?"

"Of course." Xu Xiaogang nodded and pointed to the official road: "Go along this official road, across four provinces, and you will reach Jianchi Pass, which is an important northern gateway of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Jianchi Pass is also the largest and most important town in the North."

"After leaving Jianchi Pass, there is an endless grassland."

"It is the land of the Hu people, the northern barbarians."

"When my sister and I were little, we often went to Jianchi Pass."

"Now that I'm older, I seldom go there."

Xu Xiaogang could understand this, after all, his father's prestige in the military was getting higher and higher.

His Majesty the Emperor naturally wanted to keep Xu Dingwu's family in the capital.

As the legitimate son of the Duke of Zhenguo, Xu Xiaogang was well aware of these principles.

Jianchi Pass is a military stronghold, far less prosperous than the capital. It is a bitterly cold place with howling north winds. The local people have rough skin on their faces, which is far less delicate than the skin of women in the capital.

The entire convoy was huge and along the way, many Jinyiwei from the East Zhenfu Division were chatting with each other.

The atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

Of course, when they encountered a caravan coming towards them, all the Jinyiwei would shut their mouths and stop talking.

It's not that I'm worried about leaking any secrets.

Instead, it is necessary to maintain the solemnity of the Jinyiwei. A group of Jinyiwei laughing and joking will destroy outsiders' inherent impression of the Jinyiwei.

In the eyes of these caravans, they were somewhat frightened.

When passing by the Jinyiwei convoy, the Jinyiwei's eyes were like eagles, sharp and cold.

The look in his eyes seemed to be scrutinizing them.

Passersby didn't dare to look at him.

We did not stop along the way. At noon, we rested for a while at a post station along the way and then continued on our journey.

Finally, the sky gradually darkened and it became completely dark around.

"We are almost at Jingbei Station. Everyone, hurry up and get there before dark."

Wei Huaian at the front shouted loudly.

The huge convoy moved forward slowly, and suddenly, all the horses present stopped for no reason.

The horse pulling the silver pay was breathing heavily and seemed a little anxious.

Seeing this, Wei Huaian, the leader, hurriedly jumped off the carriage, squatted on the ground, sniffed, and smelled a strong smell of urine.

Tiger urine.

Wei Huaian's face changed slightly, and he shouted hurriedly: "Everyone, be alert!"

Hearing the noise, all the Jinyiwei quickly jumped off the carriage and drew their swords.

Xu Xiaogang was naturally the same. He frowned and said in a deep voice, "Dare to rob the military pay?"

He subconsciously turned around and said to Jiang Yun and Linglong, "Brother-in-law, if there is any movement later, you should keep an eye on Miss Linglong."

Jiang Yun was not surprised, as he had expected something unexpected to happen. He just didn't expect it to happen so soon. They hadn't even left the capital yet.

His hand slowly reached for the talisman in his pocket.

Seeing Xu Xiaogang walking towards Wei Huaian, Linglong lay on Jiang Yun and whispered in his ear, asking with a hint of sarcasm: "You brought me here just to ask me to help you?"

Jiang Yunen said, "Master, I really have no other choice."

Linglong gently touched Jiang Yun's chin: "What if this leader doesn't help?"

Jiang Yun lowered his voice and said, "Then I'm afraid I will be framed to death by Chang Pingyuan and won't be able to help the leader kill the dog emperor."

To be honest, Linglong's posture at this moment was quite ambiguous. If it were an ordinary person, they would probably be unable to control themselves. With such a lovely and beautiful girl, seductively standing next to them...

But Jiang Yun is different. Firstly, his Tao heart is firm...

Secondly, who knows what kind of person is underneath this girlish appearance...

There are countless ways for cults to change their appearance.

Maybe it's a 70 or 80-year-old grandmother with a bad taste, or even a grandfather...

Linglong heard this but did not say anything. She looked around, then jumped off the carriage and walked into the darkness beside her.

Just as Jiang Yun was about to ask, Linglong had already disappeared into the dark forest beside the official road.

At this moment, suddenly, countless cold arrows shot out from the darkness on both sides.

These cold arrows seemed to have been prepared in advance, and they attacked the numerous Jinyiwei in a dense manner.

Jiang Yun quickly turned over and hid under the carriage.

Many Jinyiwei also kept dodging and swinging their swords.

However, two Jinyiwei were accidentally scratched by arrows, and blood flowed out.

But soon, the skin of these two Jinyiwei turned black.

"Black crab poison?" Wei Huaian shouted loudly upon seeing this: "The arrow is highly poisonous, be careful!"

In the sea south of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there lives a creature called black crab. It is poisonous all over, especially in its claws.

This poison is strange. If you just take it, you will just have diarrhea. If it is more serious, it will be a serious illness. But if it is stained by blood from a wound, the body will soon become paralyzed, the skin will turn black, and it will kill you within an incense stick of time.

The two poisoned Jinyiwei fell to the ground stiffly with their muscles twitching.

At this time, it was too late for everyone to rescue, and more than sixty men in black rushed out from both sides of the road.

These people were all dressed in black, wearing turbans and holding exquisite long swords.

The leader, wearing a face scarf, snorted coldly, waved his hands, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Long live Honglian!"

"Kill them all!"

All the men in black attacked the numerous Jinyiwei.

Wei Huaian's heart sank, and he shouted, "How dare you come and rob the army of its silver?"

Many masters have already arrived.

You know, the Jinyiwei present are basically masters of around the seventh rank in martial arts.

Among them, Xu Xiaogang has even reached the sixth rank.

"Xu Xiaogang, catch the leader first!"

"Take this guy down!"

Wei Huaian pointed at the other party’s leader.

Xu Xiaogang jumped up with a sword in hand, and quickly rushed to the front of the black-clothed man who was leading the group. He waved his sword and kept attacking the other party.

The opponent dodged quickly, holding a big knife in his hand, just defending but not attacking.

Xu Xiaogang frowned. The leader of the men in black was quite powerful and should be stronger than himself, but he did not attack him.

Instead, just defend?

Without time to think, Xu Xiaogang continued to swing his sword and attack.

But the opponent was beaten back step by step and was only trying to protect himself, as if he had some reservations.

Xu Xiaogang felt extremely puzzled. He took a deep breath and suddenly swung his sword. This sword carried powerful magic power.

clang!
The leader of the men in black raised his sword to block, then turned his broadsword over and chopped three times.

The first knife!

Xu Xiaogang's arm went numb from the blow.

The second strike sent Xu Xiaogang's sword flying.

The third knife.

The big knife was hanging on Xu Xiaogang's forehead, but it didn't chop down.

hiss.

If the leader of the men in black had not held back, that single blow would have probably taken Xu Xiaogang's life.

What shocked Xu Xiaogang even more was.

The sword technique of the leader of the men in black is called the Three Blades of the Angry Pool.

Military swordsmanship!
It is generally used for training of imperial guards or border troops.

The other party is able to use this sword technique to perfection, he must be someone with long experience in the military.

"Who are you?" Xu Xiaogang's face changed. He dodged the knife and raised his hand to grab his face towel.

In the darkness, only a pair of eyes could be seen, and Xu Xiaogang could not recognize the other person.

But the other party hurriedly stepped back and said hoarsely, "Xu Xiaogang, get out of here if you don't want to die!"

Behind him, there were also sounds of fighting, but the powerful and well-trained Jinyiwei were all at a disadvantage at this moment!
Given the skills and strength of each individual in this group, if they fought alone, they would be no match for the many Jinyiwei.

But their fighting style was all military tactics, and they cooperated with each other very well.

Three people formed a group and attacked a Jinyiwei.

One person will take the lead in the attack, one person will coordinate, and the other person will be on guard all around to prevent other Jinyiwei from providing reinforcements.

And they are all masters of the eighth to seventh ranks in martial arts.

"hiss."

Wei Huaian's face changed drastically. Although he was very strong, he could barely protect himself under the siege of three good soldiers in the army.

Are these soldiers crazy?
Are these people border troops?

wrong.

This batch of silver was originally intended to be used as military pay for the border troops.

The troops near the capital...

The people from the Five Cities Army are far from having this strength.

That group of people only know how to take bribes, eat, drink, gamble and have sex all day long. They are a bunch of scum.

To have such ability.

There are only the imperial guards of the capital, or the Tianqi Army stationed near the capital.

But how could either the Imperial Guards or the Apocalypse Army do this?
Fortunately, although many Jinyiwei were surrounded and attacked, the strength of each individual was indeed impressive.

For a moment, he did not lose.

Jiang Yun held a yellow talisman in his hand and slowly approached the leader of the men in black under the cover of night.

At this time, the leader of the men in black was constantly attacking Xu Xiaogang, but did not want to hurt Xu Xiaogang.

This style of play actually consumes more energy.

He didn't even notice Jiang Yun sneaking up behind him.

"The true fire of Samadhi, the light flows for thousands of miles. It illuminates the heaven and earth, and shines in all directions. The rivers and seas are boiling, and the demons are hiding. The Southern Dipper descends, and the light of Samadhi flows."

"Refine the fetus to change the quality, refine the soul to make it healthy. All the monsters will die and fly away on the smoke. Hurry up and obey the command."

The Samadhi True Fire gushed out instantly and burned towards the leader of the men in black.
