Chapter 995: Encounter on the Road 5
Those servants were all huddled together in fear, terrified to look at the fierce-looking Xiliang soldiers in front of them.
These Xiliang soldiers had bloodshot eyes.
"Ptooey!"
The leading Xiliang brute spat fiercely on the ground and cursed: "Damn it! This battle is truly suffocating. The enemy has been unilaterally crushing us, and an hour has passed without seeing the Lord's army come to rescue us! In such a battle, how many of our brothers have died!"
Another Xiliang soldier stepped forward and said: "Captain! The wealth in Luoyang has been almost entirely looted by the generals and captains above. What can we gain by fighting to the death? It would be better to run away in the chaos and stop doing such high-stakes things!"
The remaining Xiliang soldiers nodded in agreement.
The degree of freedom in "Turbulent World" is very high; even these NPC troop types can sometimes come up with their own little schemes.
Originally, this Xiliang army unit had just been fighting heroically.
But seeing their comrades around them being beaten black and blue by the enemy one after another, the entire battlefield situation seemed to have become one-sided.
And seeing no one coming to save them... they couldn't help but feel desperate.
The captain of the small squad he led simply took his surviving teammates and retreated to the rear during the chaos.
And by lining up the high-ranking officials and ministers, using force to threaten them, they hijacked the two carriages and left the formation during the chaos.
It was not for anything else, but to become deserters.
And to loot those high-ranking officials and ministers to prepare for the future.
"Captain, we are fleeing the battlefield and becoming deserters. If we are discovered when we turn back, we will definitely lose our heads! Either we go back!"
A small Xiliang soldier said with a hint of worry.
"You little brat! Do you understand anything? If you go back, you die!" The leading brute kicked the small soldier hard, knocking him over!
The brute said fiercely: "You're already this big, and you still want to go back? Whoever goes back, I'll kill them!"
The small soldier who was kicked away stood up on the ground, crying and saying: "But Captain, we don't have any travel money either. In this empty place, how are we supposed to run?"
The leading brute said angrily: "You guys cheer me up!"
The small Xiliang soldier had just stood up when he was startled by the brute's hometown dialect and hurriedly squatted back on the ground.
The brute immediately turned around, looked at the two hijacked carriages behind him, and said viciously: "Why do you think we hijacked these two carriages? Isn't it to grab some wealth and go back to live a peaceful life?"
The Xiliang soldiers heard this and suddenly realized!
They realized that the captain had made them risk danger to hijack the two carriages and escape the battlefield! The result was to steal their money!
The Xiliang soldiers immediately laughed and nodded busily, saying: "Or perhaps the Captain is thinking very clearly—take these to become big officials, and then go back and live a good life!"
Seeing that everyone had reached a consensus, the brute laughed heartily, pointed his weapon at the servants, and cursed: "You, take out anything valuable you have for me to see, and take off all your clothes!"
This brute was quite clever; he knew that his group's clothes were conspicuous, and even running away would be conspicuous.
He wanted to steal the clothes of these servants and change their appearances.
After speaking, the brute also looked up at the two silent carriages and said viciously: "If there's a carriage, don't play dead with me! Hand over the wealth and valuables to me and unload the carriage, be quick about it!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for using my blade!"
However, at this moment.
Among the servants surrounding the carriage, a man who looked like an official official walked out trembling, cupped his hands, and bowed, saying: "This military lord, you must not do this. You must know who is in those two carriages..."
"They are the current Court Situ and Censor-in-Chief..."
"You had better be honest, otherwise when you go back, you will have your own suffering." ===== CHAPTER 1002 =====
