At the foot of the Green Mountain, a figure flickered in the fire.
At this moment, Wang Zaijin had brought hundreds of soldiers and used the grain carts to temporarily set up a defensive position to resist the bandits of unknown origins.
Outside the carriage, nearly a thousand bandits were shooting arrows into the carriage. In no time, one or two soldiers would fall to the ground.
Wang Zaijin held a long sword in his hand and slashed a bandit who rushed in to the ground. Then, he looked outside.
His steady face was now filled with solemnity. It could even be said that he was a little pessimistic.
More than a day had passed, but no reinforcements had arrived. This made Wang Zaijin wonder if there was a problem.
This group of bandits had appeared too suddenly. Moreover, they were obviously not ordinary bandits. They fought fiercely and were well-equipped. Half of them had warhorses.
'Could it be that I, Wang Zai, am going to die here?'
Looking at the bandits charging at him, Wang Zaijin's heart was filled with pessimism.
There was a huge difference in strength between the two sides. There were originally a thousand soldiers, but only three hundred were left. Most of them were injured, and it was obvious that they would not be able to resist.
However, Wang Zaijin was unwilling. In order to gather these provisions, he had spent a lot of time and energy.
Just the grain and baggage transported this time was enough for the tens of thousands of troops in Guang Ning City to use for half a year.
If this batch of rations and supplies were lost, Guang Ning City would be in danger.
"Milord, let's leave quickly. I'm afraid we can't hold on any longer.”This time, the guerrilla general of the Dai army rushed up and tried to persuade Wang Zaijin.
"Hold on a little longer. Perhaps, the reinforcements will arrive soon.”Wang Zaijin looked at the distance and said.
However, even he himself would not believe what he said.
"Milord, if there were reinforcements, they would have arrived long ago.”The guerrilla general said bitterly.
Wang Zaijin fell silent when he heard the general's words.
Yes, if there were any reinforcements, they would have arrived long ago.
"Kill!"
At this moment, the sound of hooves could be heard from the road in the distance. Following that, a group of people charged out.
Then, the sound of firearms firing rang out.
At this moment, the bandits outside were beaten to a pulp.
Wang Zaijin and the general were overjoyed.
"General Zhao, regroup your troops and we'll charge out.”Wang Zaijin shouted.
"Here."
Seeing the arrival of the reinforcements, the soldiers guarding behind the grain trucks seemed to have seen a life-saving straw. They all shouted and rushed out as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
At this moment, Tang Feng's men and Wang Zaijin's men attacked from the front and back, surrounding the group of bandits in the middle.
Shouts, gunshots, and screams were endless.
40 Dragon Guards and 50 musketeers pulled their triggers, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the air at the foot of Green Mountain.
Tang Feng held a long sword in his hand and rode his horse through the bandits. His long sword was like a swimming dragon. Every time he attacked, he would take the lives of one or two bandits.
At this moment, Tang Feng was like a god of death. All the bandits who appeared in front of him were no match for him.
Ren Yingying and Zhao Lingfei, the two women, followed closely behind him and continued to reap the lives of the bandits.
Wang Zaijin stood in the distance and gasped when he saw this scene.
Those fierce bandits were like scarecrows in front of this eunuch. They didn't even have the chance to resist before they were chopped off their horses.
When Tang Feng charged into the depths of the group and killed the bandit leader, the bandits were defeated.
Whether it was the Dragon Guards, the Imperial Army, or the hundreds of East Chamber foreigners, they were all experts. The bandits were powerless to resist this assault.
In the end, the bandits collapsed and fled on their horses.
Under the green mountain, it gradually quieted down.
The barbarians of the East Chamber dismounted and walked around the battlefield, cleaning up the battlefield. They found the bandits who had not died and placed them in one place.
Tang Feng rode on his warhorse, holding a long sword covered in blood in his hand. He slowly walked to Wang Zaijin's side.
When Wang Zaijin caught the light and saw Tang Feng's true face, he was stunned for a few seconds.
"Greetings, Eunuch Wei. Thank you for saving me.”After being stunned for a moment, Wang Zaijin finally reacted and hurriedly bowed.
Ding dong.
"You have successfully rescued Wang Zaijin. You have received a system reward, increasing Wang Zaijin's favorability towards the host. Current favorability: 90 points.”
After hearing the system notification, Tang Feng smiled and shook his head. This system really knew how to play.
If favorable impression points were 100 points, these 90 points of favorable impression points almost meant that Wang Zaijin had reached blind trust in him.
As the system reward was generated, Tang Feng could clearly feel the change in Wang Zaijin's attitude towards him.
From the initial indifference to the current friendliness, it was obvious that she placed him in the most important position.
When the barbarians of the East Military Department interrogated the captured bandits, the news they got made Tang Feng and Wang Zaijin silent for a long time.
These bandits were not ordinary bandits, but Mongolian Tartars from the grasslands.
The reason why they knew the route of the convoy and why no one came to their rescue during the day when the convoy was surrounded by Green Mountain was that someone in Ningyuan City had colluded with them.
As for who was colluding with these Mongolian Tartars, the captured Tartars did not know.
Tang Feng regretted killing the Tartar leader. Perhaps the Tartar leader knew the identity of that person.
"Let's continue on our way. We'll talk about it when we reach Ningyuan City.”Tang Feng mounted his horse and said to Wang Zaijin.
Wang Zaijin nodded and climbed onto a warhorse.
Although Tang Feng had lost dozens of men in this battle, they had also obtained more than three hundred high-quality warhorses.
Even those who were lost were the foreigners and Imperial Army of the East Chamber.
As the Dragon Army and the musketeers were all long-range soldiers, they didn't engage in a battle with the Mongolian Tartars and didn't suffer any casualties.
Late at night, the team finally arrived at Ningyuan City.
At this moment, the city gates were tightly shut, and lanterns hung on the city walls. It was deathly quiet.
