Chapter 475 Confluence

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The food transport team that wiped out a group of horse thieves was close to Mustang City.

    The fireworks from the burning corpses undoubtedly attracted the attention of the patrolling troops around Mustang City.

    The sound of horseshoes approaching again made Luo Cheng and the others, who were warming themselves by the fire, feel vigilant.

    One by one, they all held the hand crossbow in their hands again.

    Wait until the figure of the other party appears in their field of vision.

    Luo Cheng, who was holding up the binoculars, suddenly showed a look of joy on his face.

    "It's General Liu Kai!"

    The confirmation of identity made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

    Luo Cheng even waved loudly to the friendly soldiers who were coming on horseback in the distance.

    And after seeing the identities of Luo Cheng and others clearly.

    Liu Kai, who led the team to confirm the situation, also relaxed in his heart.

    Wei Wei raised her hand, and while waving at Luo Cheng, she was also telling the cavalry behind her to put down their arms.

    After the two groups of people quickly contacted.

    Liu Kai quickly got off his horse and cupped his fists at Luo Cheng.

    "General Luo Cheng, thank you for escorting the food and grass this time."

    "As for the responsibility, General Liu Kai is polite."

    Just when the two greeted each other like this, the cavalry under Liu Kai's command suddenly let out a burst of exclamation.

    It caused Luo Cheng to turn around subconsciously, and then a flash of clarity flashed across his face.

    ? They have a large food delivery team.

    There are as many as 500 cavalry in front of the cavalry.

    So one can imagine how long the team dragged on.

    In this way, Hill's mammoth and Harold's ice bears are not close to the position of their vanguard.

    Now the vanguard stops.

    The troops following behind will naturally approach slowly.

    However, the cavalry on the grassland had not experienced previous battles with the barbarian army.

    So I don't know much about things in the Central Plains.

    The mammoth and ice bear warriors that appeared later obviously surprised many people.

    "General Luo Cheng, what are these?"

    As Bai Ze's lieutenant general, Liu Kai's performance was calm enough at this time, and he didn't make any fuss like the soldiers under his command.

    "Oh, here's the thing"

    While speaking, Luo Cheng quickly explained the identities of the mammoth and the ice bear warrior, as well as the ins and outs of the whole thing.

    After listening to it, Liu Kai also showed a bit of embarrassment on his face.

    "I didn't expect so many things to happen during the time I was not in the Central Plains."

    After the two sighed for a while, the two teams quickly integrated into one and rushed towards Mustang City.

    Along the way, Liu Kai, who is familiar with the terrain, led the way, so it went smoothly.

    Before sunset, the grain transportation team had safely arrived in Mustang City.

    "The last general, Luo Cheng, has met the general!"

    In the barracks in Mustang City, Luo Cheng bowed his hands to Bai Ze.

    Bai Ze raised his hand to help Luo Cheng up.

    "General Luo Cheng doesn't need to be too polite. It's really hard for you to bring food in the wind and snow this time."

    After the simple greetings, Luo Cheng naturally couldn't help reporting the incident of being attacked by horse thieves on the road.

    After Bai Ze finished listening, he also frowned slightly.

    "These horse thieves are really getting more and more unscrupulous!"

    After saying a word, Bai Ze, who seemed to be thinking of something, asked again, "General Luo Cheng, do you remember the number of those horse thieves?"

    "The number is not large, about a hundred people."

    "More than a hundred people"

    Bai Ze thought about it for a while, and then a trace of understanding appeared on his face.

    "I know which group it is."

    "Which group?"

    Luo Cheng raised his brows slightly when he heard this statement.

    "How many horse thieves are there on this grassland?"

    Facing this question, both Bai Ze and Liu Kai showed wry smiles on their faces.

    "a lot of."

    After Liu Kai said these two words, the wry smile on his face became even worse.

    "On this grassland, there are countless tribes, large and small, and many of them make a living by plundering, which is the source of those horse thieves."

    "After winter, food was scarce and forced to make a living, these horse thieves began to attackDisturb our three prairie cities.  "

    "They come and go like the wind, they don't confront us head-on at all, they basically run away when they see us, so many times it's quite impossible to take them."

    "In desperation, we can only strengthen the patrols around the three cities."

    "However, after we took precautions here, they turned their attention to the food transportation team."

    "During this period of time, many horse thieves are probably having a hard time. Whenever they have the opportunity, they will keep an eye on the grain transport route, trying to hijack the grain delivered by the grain transport team."

    "I see."

    After listening to Liu Kai's explanation, Luo Cheng nodded thoughtfully.

    "No wonder the horse thieves came as soon as we entered the grassland area. Is the partner waiting for a rabbit?"

    While speaking, Luo Cheng, who thought about it for a while, couldn't help frowning.

    "Now that the road is blocked by heavy snow, it is not easy to transport the food. If the food transportation route is temporarily changed, the efficiency may be lower. For the current plan, I am afraid that we can only strengthen the guards."

    "yes."

    Upon hearing this, Liu Kai nodded in agreement.

    But Bai Ze, who was sitting on the main seat, asked aloud as if he had thought of something

    "By the way, General Luo Cheng, you mentioned a long-range weapon called a hand crossbow earlier, can you let me have a look?"

    "The general is polite, of course there is no problem."

    Luo Cheng signaled one of his soldiers indifferently to fetch a crossbow.

    Take the hand crossbow that the soldier took.

    Bai Ze took a quick look.

    And Luo Cheng, who was sitting next to him, was also giving a proper explanation.

    "This hand crossbow is quite useful for dealing with horse thieves. The only regret is that it is too difficult to re-string this hand crossbow while riding on horseback."

    While speaking, Luo Cheng specially demonstrated it to Bai Ze.

    The whole process of loading the crossbow can be said to be clear to Bai Ze at a glance.

    This hand crossbow is indeed a sharp weapon.

    But for the cavalry who fought on horseback, they basically only had one shot.

    It is inevitable that there is a feeling of overkill.

    Let the infantry unit hold it, and it is estimated that it will be of greater value.

    As for this matter, Luo Cheng obviously also explained it.

    Tell Bai Ze that this is originally a weapon of the Crossbowmen.

    It's because it is very important to escort food this time.

    This is borrowed for them to use.

    After a simple conversation, everyone quickly turned the topic to the business.

    "Now the three cities on the prairie are in a state of food shortage. The efficiency of our people's transportation of one bag after another is really too low, but the convoy can't make it through, so at the end, the general wants to ask the general to transfer some food."  A team of cavalry came over to help transport food together to increase efficiency.¡±

    Luo Cheng's words were extremely sincere, and Bai Ze naturally had no reason to refuse.

    "General Luo Cheng, don't worry, the soldiers have worked hard all the way, first rest in Mustang City for one night, and tomorrow morning, I will ask Liu Kai to lead 500 cavalry to assist the food delivery team to transport food together."
