C307 Tang army

"Right, take out those weapons used to capture people and bring them back alive!" Looking at the team of riders ready to leave, Xiao Wen suddenly said.

Hearing Xiao Wen's words, everyone was startled, but they immediately reacted and took out a strange shaped weapon from the armory.

These weapons were divided into two categories: one was called a catcher's fork, and the other was called a retainer.

The so-called catcher was a weapon used in prisons in modern Europe, from the 16th to the 19th century. The weapon, which is 1.2 to 2 metres long and weighs 1 to 2 kilograms, evolved from a truncheon for capturing livestock.

He had a long pole with a trap attached to the top. The condom was made of high-explosive steel, in the shape of a Greek letter, "omega." Inside the spring steel was seven sharp spikes, and if the prisoner ran away, he would use this weapon to catch him. After catching up with the prisoner, he would put the constable's condom on his head, making it hard for him to run away.

Xiao Wen had once seen police patrolling at a train station in the country with this kind of thing. Just for humanitarian reasons, China, or the modern world, would remove the seven sharp spikes from the spring steel sheath when it was making the catcher's fork.

However, even if the steel spike was removed, as long as this thing was attached to a person's neck, it would be very difficult for an ordinary person to escape.

However, the other weapon, the one used to keep guests, was not as civilized.

Its appearance could almost be described as savage.

Residence was a weapon used by the police in ancient China. From the shape of the weapon, it should be a heavy javelin.

This kind of heavy javelin had two barbed hooks below its edge.

The pattern is found in Ming Wangqi's "Eight Volumes of Weapons Used in Painting of the Three Geniuses", which mainly deals with Jiang Yang bandits and mountain bandits.

"The second time" wrote: "outside in the torchlight, steel forks, saber, five-strand forks, guest retention, like the setting of the hemp forest."

The reason why this weapon was called "Stay with guests" was because it was extremely powerful. If one didn't want to kill it, they would capture it alive. If one didn't want to live, they would live.

His intuition told Xiao Wen that someone must be behind this matter. Otherwise, it would be impossible for those bandits to have so many abnormal actions.

He knew that for thousands of years, no matter how it changed, even if the earth accelerated, using the gravity of Jupiter and Saturn as a gravity catapult, and wandered all the way to Centaurus, the old master remained the same, self-righteous, and intelligent.

Since they were looking for trouble with Xiao Wen, then Xiao Wen did not mind going back to look for trouble with them.

After all, in the court battle on the surface, Xiao Wen still had to observe the rules more or less. However, if one left this layer of rules, the one who would be at a disadvantage would definitely not be Xiao Wen.

After all, in terms of unconventional methods, no one in this world had more of them than Xiao Wen.

As long as he wished, he could configure the pure gunpowder and then learn from DuPont's experience when dealing with competitors. He could send the enemy an aircraft directly into the ground.

"As long as... As long as I know who is doing this to me, that's enough! " Xiao Wen thought.

The number of people in the group was limited. Many people were unable to ride their war horses to attack. Hence, the remaining people all climbed onto the top of the horse carriage and started shooting at the enemies outside with crossbow s.

The occasional scream that came from the forest proved that their attack was a success.

Very quickly, the Thieves in the forest ran out due to a loss of morale.

Obviously, these thieves couldn't even take 10% of the casualties compared to the ones above.

As long as one in ten died, the remaining nine would surely flee in fright.

However, on the carriage's roof, Xiao Wen roughly counted the number of bandits, and his heart skipped a beat.

This was because the bandits surrounding them numbered more than three hundred.

With so many people, there was only one possibility — this group of bandits actually consisted of more than ten gangs of bandits.

If it was so many bandits, it would be difficult for him to kill them all.

"No matter how difficult it is, I have to do it. I don't want to leave any problems behind!" Regarding enemies, if possible, Xiao Wen would definitely kill them all.

At this moment, the distant team of horses had already arrived. All the men in the team were wearing armor and holding lances made from iron. The officer in the lead even had a flag on his back, and the word "Tang" was waving in the wind. Xiao Wen's heart skipped a beat. This was indeed the army of the Tang Kingdom.

He couldn't help but look at the man next to him. His blue tunic reached to his knees, his linen pantsuit partner, his ox-eared shoes, and his hair tied up in a bun. He was dressed like a commoner. Only a few guards could afford to wear leather armor. It was simply too much of a loss.

But there was nothing they could do about it, after all they were just diplomatic missions, going to the Tang Kingdom was to establish diplomatic relations. Therefore, other than the necessary guards, the rest of them were not allowed to wear armor.

"If you can be on good terms with these soldiers, then try to be on good terms with them!" Xiao Wen thought.

Then, he saw the cavalry army charge towards the bandits. Each and every one of them wielded a lance in their hands, and directly smashed into the bandits' bodies.

Every time they crashed into each other, a large amount of corpses would be brought into the air. These corpses were either trampled to death by their war horses or pierced by the lances until their hearts turned cold.

Basically, these Mountain Bandits who did not wear armour, did not have shields, did not have spears, and did not have any camp were not a match for these Tang Kingdom Heavy Cavalry.

Fortunately, the heavy armors of those heavy cavalry soldiers were heavy. Even if they had good warhorses, they would not be able to run very fast.

Although they were strong, they were much slower when compared to those guards who did not wear armor, or those who only wore breastplates made from leather.

As a result, although some of the bandits on the field had been killed by Tang Jun, the majority of them were controlled by the merchants.

Thanks to the help of Young Prefecture Order Mo Ming, the guards Xiao Wen brought this time, were actually a group of people who were extremely skilled in horse riding. On their war horses, it was as if they were walking on flat ground. Whenever they got close to the enemy, they would take out a bunch of retainers and directly pierce through their thighs, impaling them to the ground and rendering them unable to move.

Xiao Wen knew that these people who were being held back would be crippled for the rest of their lives. After all, with this kind of strength, unless they received Xiao Wen's costly treatment, their legs would definitely not be able to hold back.

However, there were some bandits who were relatively lucky. This was because they were either better dressed or had better weapons. In the eyes of others, this was clearly a tongue that could ask for more.

Therefore, whenever they met this type of bandit, one of the workers would stop and take out a catcher's fork to catch him.

Two hours later, these more than three hundred bandits, under the combined pursuit of Xiao Wen's guards and Tang Jun, were completely exterminated. As for those captives, they were also taken back to the camp through the iron threads in Xiao Wen's hands.

The group of Tang Army also silently approved of Xiao Wen's actions.

When these people were brought back to the camp, the group of Tang soldiers also chopped off the heads of the dead bandits and hung them on their waists.

The outstanding tradition inherited from Qin Dynasty made human heads the hard currency of ancient Chinese army. In the eyes of the soldiers, a head was a military achievement, a currency. Even this group of Tang soldiers felt the same way.

Seeing this group of fellows walking over with their heads bent, Shangguan Waner and Yang Xiu both returned to the carriage uncomfortably. Although Zhuge Liang was not feeling well, he still clenched his fists tightly, and stood beside Xiao Wen to look at the group of people.

Of course, people like Guan Yu, who were born with the ability of a general, or people like Sun Shangxiang, who had seen great things, had normal expressions.

"Nine!" Sun Shangxiang said complacently as he looked at Guan Yu.

It seemed that every time the two of them were robbed, they would carry out a lever crossbow hunting competition.

However, Guan Yu merely snorted in disdain and said: "Twelve."

Hearing that, Sun Shangxiang could not help but pull her head, pouting her small mouth and say: "Next time! If there's a next time, I will definitely win against you! "

Hearing these words, Xiao Wen felt embarrassed. It seemed that these two little fellows were addicted to this murder competition?

At the same time, the Tang Army officer outside urged his horse and arrived outside the carriage.

He used his horse lance to knock on the carriage, then looked at the Chinese character banner on the carriage and said, "I heard that an envoy from the Han Empire came recently. Could it be you?"
