Chapter 53
However, the arrival of just 200 people completely declared the failure of Xiao Han's attack!
"咻...咻..." Two sharp whistles sounded, and the man in black quickly backed away, disappearing into the dense forest in a short while.

"Mr. Linjiang, Tianhei Mountain Road is steep, we are late, don't be offended!

We will immediately send people into the mountains to hunt them down. Don’t worry, they will never escape. "

The centurion of the Forbidden Army saw the armor split by the knife in front of Xiao Boya,
He thought secretly: "It's so dangerous. Is the battle so fierce?"

Seeing Xiao Boya's inner armor again, my heart was half-filled into my stomach.
"Fortunately, this Duke of Linjiang County is a cautious man and wears inner armor. If he dies here today,

Our brothers are afraid that we will all have to drink sand and eat dirt in the north. "

The concerns of the centurion of the imperial army are not unreasonable. They are the imperial army who are responsible for the safety of the hunting grounds.

If an attack or killing occurs within their patrol area, this is a dereliction of duty. If someone is not good enough, they will be exiled to the border town.

"It doesn't matter. This commander came to save me from the fire and water. I can't even thank him enough. How can I be surprised?"

Xiao Boya called him the commander, which was a polite way of calling him.
Although this is indeed the dereliction of duty of the Forbidden Army, the bottom line is that Xiao Han deliberately wanted to kill him,
Tainan Mountain is so big, there can be 2000 people hiding there, it is normal that the imperial guards cannot find Xiao Han's troops,
Speaking of which, they also suffered from their own indiscriminate disaster, Xiao Boya would not be offended.

"I am not worthy of the title of 'Commander' of Linjiang County. I am no more than a centurion in the middle of Zhenlongwei."

The centurion of the Forbidden Army politely excused himself at first, and then said:

Lord Linjiang is generous. Speaking of which, Lord Linjiang has been at war with this group of people for a long time, so there is speculation about their identities. "

This is his responsibility, and he must ask clearly.

"It should be a group of bandits running around, it's my bad luck, I just walked into their ambush circle."

The Centurion of the Forbidden Army looked at the battlefield and twitched the corner of his mouth,'

This battlefield is full of oil and arrows,

And judging from the corpses on the ground, the attackers were still wearing armor and had fine knives...and the Iron Buddha?

You tell me this is a bandit?Those bandits are so well equipped? '

However, my mind changed and I glanced at Xiao Boya, remembering the change in the Xiao family’s heir this year.
I immediately understood that this was an attack specifically aimed at him,

And most of them are family feuds, or brothers killing each other.

That's why Linjiang County Lord said it was a "bandit" attack?

"Bandits" attack!In this way, the responsibility for the dereliction of duty for attacking and killing them this time can be reduced by three points, not to mention removing most of it.

And there is a high probability that they won't need to work on follow-up investigations.

Ninety percent of his heart was finally in his stomach.

At the moment, he also followed Xiao Boya's words, "Don't worry, Lord Linjiang, even if it's a 'bandit', we promise to clean them up and won't disturb you again."

Having said that, whether or not they pursue this kind of family vendetta depends on the emperor's will.

The centurion of the Imperial Guard immediately felt relieved, taking most of the responsibility away from him.
Seeing Xiao Boya's people struggling to collect the bodies of their teammates and cleaning the battlefield,
Then he said, "Mr. Linjiang County, my brothers and I will clean up the battlefield for you!"

"Thank you." Xiao Boya thanked.

An hour later, the imperial troops left and camped 500 meters away from them.

The Xiao family's tent was also erected among the ruins.
These tents were given by some nearby families. They and the Forbidden Army rushed here almost immediately. After sending some things, they also left.
And as they left, Xiao Boya was attacked, and the news of the fight between Xiao family members also spread to the camps of these families like the wind.

In the main account, Xiao Boya was still wearing armor.

"Uncle Zhao, how about our casualties this time?"

"Eight 940 people were killed and three were seriously injured. The battle was so fierce that most of the brothers died together with the enemy.
And after the war, more than a dozen people died of exhaustion. " Zhao Cheng said.

"Okay, okay, this cousin of mine will never die if he wants to kill me!"

Xiao Boya felt very sad for her family. She had already developed feelings for them while spending time with them, and besides, there were many people in them.

He has been loyal to their Xiao family for several generations...

"Mr. Shaolang, the most important thing now is how we should return to Yujing City.
Mr. Han may not only have ambushed this team, we are still two days and one night away from Yujing City,

But our parts can no longer fight, and the imperial army can't ask them to stay and protect us without the order of the empress or prince,

In this case, Mr. Han only needs to send another 100 people to kill us completely, Mr. Shao, our situation is still very dangerous! "

After saying that, he lowered his head. There was nothing he could do. There was no one close to the Xiao family.

The emperor and empress were not here, and the prince also left first. Without the orders of these three people,

It is impossible for the Forbidden Army to send someone to protect Young Master!
Because the forbidden army, as the name suggests, is the royal army, they can listen to the orders of these three people to protect others,

But not to speak for themselves without orders from either of them.

And only these three people can move, other princes and princesses can't move.

Because in the name of monarch and minister, only they are "jun", and the transfer of others will be suspected of treason.

And just now, he had already tested the centurion of the Forbidden Army with words, not asking him to specifically protect them.

Instead, he asked if he could "suffer" with them while patrolling, but unfortunately he was rejected by the centurion of the imperial army who might have guessed the inside story.

Xiao Boya thought for a while,

"Uncle Zhao, order to go down. After resting for an hour, we will leave the camp at midnight. I know where to go so that we can return to Yujing City safely."

Xiao Boya thinks she will take him in, right?

At Mao Shi, Xiao Boya set out with the rest of the song,
Because there are few people, with one person and two horses, there are still extra horses to carry items.

In the early morning, Shen Qingjun's trilogy was burying the stove and cooking.
Shen Qingjun was patrolling the camp when suddenly the sound of horseshoes came from a distance, he walked to the front and stopped to check.

Not long ago, a group of people came up not far away. Looking carefully, it turned out to be Xiao Boya and his party.

'It looks like a remnant army!What happened. '

Because Shen Qingjun's camp and Xiao Boya's camp are far away, one is in the east and the other is in the west.
So yesterday, the news about the infighting between the Xiao family brothers last night hadn't reached her yet.
After all, the news needs time to ferment.

Without leaving Shen Qingjun confused for too long, Xiao Boya rode forward and stopped the horse about four to five feet away in front of Shen Qingjun.

He quickly dismounted and walked to Shen Qingjun.
