Across the Water Margin: Officials of Ximen

Under Huo Jiu'er's command, dozens of cavalry in armor lined up in three columns and rushed forward.

"Not good! Senior officials, they have armor on their bodies, they can't be shot! Senior officials, go!" A guard beside Ximen Qing exclaimed.

The arrows shot by the guards in this round hit the cavalry with a "jingling" sound, some of them were bounced off, and some of them hit the body, but they didn't go deep into the flesh, and didn't cause much harm to the bandit soldiers. Lethality.

Although Ximen Qing shot a robber in the face and knocked him off his horse, it was obvious that he alone could not stop so many thieves from rushing across the river.

Ximen Qing looked intently and saw the gleaming armor on Huo Jiuer's body, and the subordinates around him were also wearing armor. It seemed that this was a thief leader!

"Hey! This is a stupid thief! You all shoot my horse!" Ximen Qing sneered.

Chapter 465 You Can't Mess With Senior Officials

Huo Jiu'er never imagined that the armor that usually protects him in battle has now become a burden to him and his cronies.

When Ximen Qing saw the flaws of the thieves at a glance and asked his guards to shoot arrows and horses, Huo Jiuer's disaster came.

Although the iron armor on the thieves could prevent arrows, the horses they stepped on were not covered, and they were shot by arrows one after another.

The painful horse jumped wildly in the river, fell into the river, and threw the robbers on the horse into the Song Wa River.

These robbers were all covered with iron armor weighing dozens of kilograms. After falling into the water, they couldn't struggle. After taking a few mouthfuls of water, they sank to the bottom of the river.

Huo Jiuer was shocked, only then did he realize that the heavy armor on his body had become a fatal flaw in this river.He didn't dare to lead the team to charge again, and wanted to turn his horse's head and escape into the crowd behind him.

Ximen Qing had been staring at this guy for a long time, how could he let him escape easily.He drew the bow very quickly and shot four consecutive arrows at Huo Jiu'er.

Huo Jiu'er was also on guard. Hearing the wind, he slashed with his knife and knocked down the two arrows that were aimed at him.However, those two arrows were just to attract Huo Jiuer's attention, and the other two arrows shot by Ximen Qing hit the horse that Huo Jiuer stepped down fiercely.

The horse let out a long cry, and the man stood up, fell to the left, and threw Huo Jiu'er into the river downstream.

"Help me! Save me!" Huo Jiuer only yelled twice before sinking into the dark river.

"The leader fell into the water! Hurry up and save the leader!" Huo Jiu'er's cronies shouted loudly.But because they had iron armor on their bodies, they didn't dare to jump into the river.Fortunately, there were quite a few thieves loyal to Huo Jiu'er behind him. A dozen or so unarmored thieves jumped into the river and groped around in the dark.

"I'll go quickly!" Seeing the bandit leader shot into the river by himself, Ximen Qing knew that even if the guy wasn't drowned, he would only have half his life left.At this time, the thieves have no leader and are in chaos, which is a good time to get out.

Ximen Qing and the guards put away their bows and arrows, got on their horses, and rode away.Those thieves with low morale were indeed busy looking for their leader in the water, completely forgetting to pursue Ximen Qing and the others.

……

After galloping for half an hour, Jiao Ting led people to meet Ximen Qing and his party.

"Is there something wrong with Alan?" Ximen Qing asked urgently.

"Brother, don't worry, brother, after I received Ulun Zhurige's report, I immediately brought people to meet him. On the way, I met Miss Alan. I have asked Ulun Zhurige to accompany Miss Alan back to the camp first. Brother , have you ever been injured?" Jiao Ting's answer made Ximen Qing feel relieved.

"I was not injured, but I lost a few brothers. I caught this bird thief who is greedy for life and fear of death. You take him back to torture him, and ask the thieves' lair. Bird thieves dare to attack my wife , This time, we will not give up with him! Let's go back to the camp first, and then we can discuss." Ximen Qing said, he grabbed the thief in front of the saddle who was knocked out by him and threw it to Jiao Ting.

How could Huo Jiuer's group of Liaodong thieves expect that the official Ximen Qing whom he provoked today was a bandit nemesis. After crossing over, he was best at exterminating all kinds of bandits.Now that they have offended the officials Ximen Qing, disaster is imminent.Ximen Qing didn't intend to spare them so easily just because this was the land of Jin Kingdom and Liao Kingdom in Liaodong.

Along the way, Ximen Qing was silently thinking about the next plan, but the twelve guards who followed Ximen Qing in the bloody battle couldn't keep their mouths shut. Regardless of their fatigue, they happily told the companions who came to meet him. How did Qing Daguan bravely lead himself and others to cross the Song Wa River by force, and fight in and out while surrounded by bandits; how did he lead himself and others to guard the east bank of Song Wa River after rescuing the little lady Alan, so that hundreds of robbers could not do anything? One step beyond the thunder pool.

Speaking of the group of thieves who were as stupid as pigs, wading across the river in heavy armor, they were caught by the officials and shot off their horses, and all of them sank to the bottom of the river to feed their bastards, everyone couldn't help laughing.

Ximen Qing also laughed when he heard the words: "Hehehe~ I think these Liaodong thieves are far more powerful and aggressive than the bandits in Shandong and Hebei, but their resourcefulness is not as good as that of Song Jiang, Wu Yong and others on Liangshan Mountain. Far away. If my predictions are correct, those Liaodong thieves might not have thought that I would kill the carbine later, and they will definitely stay in the original camp tonight."

"Brother Ximen, your pommel horse is tired today, if you want to fight back overnight, let me go for you, brother!" Jiao Ting yelled eagerly beside Ximen Qing.Hearing that Ximen Qing was in danger tonight, Jiao Tingzhi wished he could fly there and kill everyone.Now that he has not been able to fight against the bandits, Jiao Ting really feels uncomfortable all over his body.

"There is no rush for this matter. After I go back and rest for the night, tomorrow I will borrow troops from the Jurchens and cross the river to wipe out these thieves in one fell swoop! I want to see their demise with my own eyes!" Ximen Qing said to Jiao Ting about himself plan of.

"That's good! Tonight I'll take care of this bird thief first!" Jiao Ting cast a vicious glance at the captured thief.

Everyone talked and laughed, and returned to their camp with high morale.After jumping off the horse, Jiao Ting grinned grimly, carried the thief with one hand, led a few guards out of the camp, and disappeared into the darkness.According to him, it was because he was worried that he would make too much noise when interrogating the thieves later, which would disturb the dreams of Ximen Qing and others.

The Mongolians, including Borjijin Alan and Ulunzhurig, who were waiting restlessly in the camp, rushed out when they heard the sound of horseshoes.Bo'er? Alan threw himself into Ximen Qing's arms and hugged him tightly. After a while, he let go of his hand and looked up and down, carefully checking whether Ximen Qing was injured.After confirming that Ximen Qing was safe and sound, Bor, who was relaxed, only then Alan wept with joy.

Ximen Qing was about to comfort Bor Jijin Alan, but he saw Ulunzhurig and the four surviving Mongolians knelt down in front of him, kowtowing to him in thanks.

Seeing this, Ximen Qing hurriedly helped Ulunzhurige and the others up.Ulunzhurige told Ximen Qing that today he rescued the young master from a band of robbers, and made the five of them very grateful.They all said that they met a real hero today, and they will willingly follow the little master from now on, treating Ximen Qing as their master.Even if Master Ximenqing wants to take them into the terrifying sea, they swear to Tengger that life and death will accompany them.

"Okay, everyone is tired today, let's go to bed quickly! After recovering enough energy, we will show off tomorrow. Brothers who are injured, go to bandage and heal quickly, and you will recover your body." Ximen Qing said to several Mongolians and The guards around ordered.

After everyone dispersed as ordered, Ximen Qing also returned to his tent.After the two maids served Ximen Qing to take a bath, Ximen Qing collapsed on the bed exhausted and fell into a deep sleep.

After washing up, Borji Jin? Alan came to Ximen Qing's tent, curled up gently into Ximen Qing's arms, and fell asleep with a smile on her face.

Chapter 466 I Have Two Hundred Guides

Although Wanyan Yinshu is a good drinker, the guard of Ningjiang Prefecture is not the kind of person who makes mistakes.His Jurchen warriors had a tight defense around Ningjiang Prefecture City, and the noise in Ximenqing camp last night naturally couldn't escape their eyes and ears.

Early in the morning, after waking up, Wanyan Yinshu learned from the spies that Ximen Qing, a businessman from the Song Dynasty, had gone out with his guards after the banquet yesterday, and that his brother Jiao Ting had left the camp in a hurry on horseback at night. When Song Dynasty businessman Ximen Qing and his party returned to the camp, they were covered in blood, as if they were attacked by thieves in the wild.

After listening to the spies' report, Wanyan Yinshu stood up, intending to let his son Wanyan Gouying go to Ximen Qing's camp to find out what was true, but he pondered for a while, then sat back and waved his hand to the spies. Back off first.

Wanyan Yinshu decided to wait a little longer, to wait and see what happened, to see if Ximen Qing, a businessman from the Song Dynasty, would come to visit him.

Not far from Ximenqing's camp, in the Wulin Naoshi Tuhei military camp, Wulin Moshi Tuhei also heard about the strange situation in Ximenqing's camp last night.

Entrusted by Wanyan Gushen, Wulin Moshi Tuhei promised to protect Ximen Qing's caravan along the way. Therefore, when he heard that Ximen Qing and others might be attacked yesterday, he immediately decided to go to Ximen Qing's camp for a while. Ask exactly.

Wulin Moshi Tuhei was about to walk out of the tent when his warriors came to report that Ximen Qing, a businessman from the Song Kingdom, had come to visit.

……

Not long after, Ximenqing and Wulin Moshi Tuhei visited Wanyan Yinshuke together.

In Wanyan Yinshuke's barracks, Ximenqing told him in detail that after yesterday's banquet, he took his servants and guards to ride horses to the west of the Songwa River, but was ambushed and attacked by many thieves along the river.

Ximen Qing said that he fought hard to break out of the siege, but six guards and four servants under him were killed and suffered heavy losses.Fortunately, when I broke out last night, I caught one alive, so I tortured the origin of the thieves and their hiding places in Khitan.

Ximen Qing is determined to take revenge, and Wulin Moshi Tuhei has agreed to lend troops to Ximen Qing to help him avenge him.Because this time they were going to cross the Song Wa River from Ningjiang Prefecture and invade Khitan territory, Wanyan Yinshu was ordered to be responsible for the offense and defense of this area, so they first came to discuss with Wanyan Yinshu.

After Wanyan Yinshu heard Ximen Qing's words, he was furious, and cursed: "Those Khitan thieves, who actually drove the thieves and robbers to the border of our Dajin Kingdom, must have evil intentions! Ximen Qing , you and Shi Tuhei are my silver-coloured guests, how can I let you send troops to wipe out the thieves today? I immediately ordered [-] elite soldiers, and let Ba Lisu and Guoying take them to kill those thieves Clean!"

Wulin Mo Shi Tu Hei laughed and said, "Silver skill is good, I accept your wish. But now the king is negotiating peace with the Khitan thieves, and the two armies have temporarily ceased fighting. As a member of Ningjiang Prefecture Guard, it is inappropriate to directly send troops to invade Khitan territory at this time! I, Shi Tuhei, is different. I have not yet taken office in Liaoyang Mansion in Tokyo, and I have not used Tokyo's garrison forces. Now I am surrounded by my tribe's private soldiers. I Shi Tuhei Tu Hei was supposed to protect the caravan on this trip, but now the Dajin Kingdom caravan was attacked by thieves, I crossed the border to fight the thieves and rescue the caravan, forgive those Khitan dogs and have nothing to say! This battle should be left to Shi Tu Hei Bar!"

Wanyan Yinshu calmed down and thought about it for a while, it seemed that the two had already discussed it in advance, and what Wulin Moshi Tuhei said was not unreasonable.

Although he has always been opposed to peace negotiations with the Khitan dog thieves, he can't openly undermine the national policy of the lord Wanyan Agu Damujin.

The lord of the country once warned himself not to be warlike and greedy for meritorious service, and not to send troops to occupy the Khitan land at will before the conclusion of the peace negotiation.So, it's better to let the tribal army from Wulin Moshi and Tuhei cross the border to raid?

However, to let the aggressive Wanyan Yinshu sit on the sidelines, wouldn't it be to suffocate him to death?

Wanyan Yinshu could ponder for a moment, rolled his strange eyes, and thought about it.He grinned and laughed, and said to Ximen Qing and Wulin Shi Tuhei: "What Shi Tuhei said is true, my silver skills are indeed not good enough to directly send troops to cross the border to attack! But you are right about Ningjiang Prefecture I'm not familiar with the geography of Khitan on the other side of the Song Wa River, why don't I ask Ba Lisu and Yu Ying to guide you with [-] cavalry to help you wipe out the thieves. These [-] guides can be regarded as your tribal soldiers. ! Hahaha~"

Are there two hundred elite cavalry as guides?This is not a war to destroy the country, but to wipe out more than 1000 remnants of bandits.Wanyan Yinshu is really shameless and cute, which refreshed Ximen Qing's understanding of him.
