Chapter 978: Oolong
"Young Master, Young Master, here, here!" shouted the scout, his face full of joy, and he shouted loudly before he could get closer.
"Your sister, tell me clearly, what's coming? Your grandfather and I have always been there. Xu Pengju reprimanded angrily. Since following Su Mo, he has learned a lot of words, and he has slipped out casually from time to time. For example, this "your sister", he feels much taller and more noble than the previous "fuck" and "your mother's".
The scout smiled embarrassedly, and quickly explained: "Yes, yes, the little one is talking about horse bandits, and horse bandits are coming." ”
Xu Peng's eyes lit up, and he said with great joy: "Where is the horse bandit, how far is it from here?"
The scout said, "It's not far, it's coming this way." Looking at the front army, there are only about 100 horses, and then we can't get close to the back, but looking at the scale of the dust, it looks like about six or seven hundred people, and the number of people who are echoing the news is echoing, it should be this group of people. ”
Xu Peng clapped his hands and said happily: "Okay! Everyone prepare, let the little miscellaneous fish in front let him go, and let's fight the big guy in the back. It's still the same old rule, not a single one is left!"
Everyone responded violently: "No one will be left!"
Xu Pengju nodded with satisfaction, tilted his head and smiled at the wolf king: "Lao Bai, it's time to work, let's get started." ”
As he spoke, he beckoned everyone to begin smearing wolf urine on his body and mount.
The wolf king let out a low roar proudly, turned and went back. After a while, a faint long howl sounded, and then a series of responses were heard in all directions.
Xu Peng's eyes flickered, and he waved his hand to lead everyone to hide next to the preset battlefield that had already been explored, with a cruel sneer on his face.
More than half an hour later, a black line appeared in the distance in the sky. As time stretched, the ground began to shake slightly, a sign of the many horses running together.
Boom, first a few scattered knights flew by. Scattered among each other, about a hundred paces apart, they were the scouts of the vanguard team.
The knights on the horse were all wrapped in their heads and covered their faces, and they were dressed in leather armor, which was the standard dress of horse bandits on the grassland.
Xu Peng raised his hand and pressed down, signaling everyone not to reveal his hiding. In a short time, there were hundreds of horsemen rushing by. And at this time, it can be clearly seen that about ten miles behind it, there is a bigger dust rising, and that is their main meal.
It's just that for some reason, after watching the vanguard of more than 100 horsemen on the other side pass, Xu Pengju felt an indescribable awkwardness in his heart, as if something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Eh, do you feel anything is wrong? He asked in a low voice to the entourage beside him.
Qin Sui was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and then said, "They have changed direction, and it seems that they are going west." It's really wrong, doesn't it mean that their goal is Young Master Su's new city? Then it should go to the northeast, what are you going to do when you suddenly go west?"
After following such a reminder, Xu Pengju also came to his senses. But smash it, smash it, and I'm a little confused, is it because of the direction?
Seem...... Probably...... Right......
Isn't it true that these brutes have gone all the way to the west? Aren't they already defeated, they're on the run....... huh?! No! yes, they're not on the run?
As he thought about it, a flash of light flashed, and he suddenly realized that he felt that something was wrong.
The state of the so-called vanguard troops, as well as the speed of marching, where is the appearance of a normal march? That is clearly the posture that should be seen when fleeing.
Alas, not good!
Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered one more thing, and his face changed instantly. He turned his head back suddenly, beckoned a person and said urgently: "Quick! Go and probe again! Let's see if the big army behind is a horse bandit?
The people who were called were a little stunned, and they didn't dare to hesitate, so they hurriedly went away. Xu Pengju's face was a little ugly, and he ordered everyone not to move lightly, and everything would wait for another specific report.
The vague feeling in his heart has become stronger and stronger, and his previous judgment is only afraid that he has completely misexpressed his feelings.
Sure enough, only half an hour later, the original scout ran with a panicked face, but this time he didn't hide it at all, and waved his hand vigorously from afar. And not far behind him, there are several riders who are not far away and not close, as if they are monitoring and following.
Xu Peng's heart sank and stepped out of the hideout. When the scout ran closer, his eyes swept towards the knights who were standing still far away, and then he snorted coldly: "Say, where did the bastard make trouble with Lao Tzu and ruin Lao Tzu's plan." ”
The scout's face turned bitter, and he said with a sad face: "They said that it was the Chang family of Fengxiang Mansion and the joint forces of the He family of Wuqing. This way, they are chasing the thieves who attacked them before. The thieves kidnapped one of their concubines......"
Xu Pengju closed his eyes slightly, his lips pursed tightly without saying a word. The two fists were clenched desperately in the sleeves, and there was an urge to kill in the bottom of my heart.
After half a sound, he slowly opened his eyes, waved his hand to let the scout go down, and he turned over his horse and greeted a few people over there.
Those people were the scouts sent by the Chang family in the rear, and at this time, they had already caught up with Chang Man and the others who had rushed to save Xiao Meng's concubine room first. Xiao Meng is still in the team, but because of this, he temporarily cleared the suspicion of colluding with the horse bandits.
However, he repeatedly begged everyone to help him save the concubine, and after Chang Bao discussed with He Yan, he felt that it didn't matter whether to save the concubine or not, but the movements of this gang of horse bandits were really weird. Looking at it now, their previous analysis is obviously very offset, and it is necessary to figure out this point alone.
Therefore, he did not refuse at the moment, and joined forces again in a few clicks, and continued to chase down the trail. It's just that after chasing and chasing, he noticed the change of direction of the other party, and the other party seemed to be in a hurry to be chased, and he actually changed his direction to the west, completely deviating from the original goal.
And half a day later, I met Xu Pengju's scout. After shouting twice, I realized that I had finally met here. As for that, in fact, Xu Pengju noticed them a moment earlier, and even almost ambushed them, and they didn't know about giving them a big meal for the time being. Otherwise, I really don't know how to wipe a cold sweat.
After the two of them were able to determine each other's identities, a few people followed them. This prairie is really empty, and it is necessary to confirm it in person. At the same time, naturally another part of the people went back to Chang Bao and He Yan to report back.
"Are you from the Chang family? Who is here next? Chang Lao San or Chang Lao Si? Or Chang Er's Yin Man?" Xu Peng was angry, but it was not easy to follow his subordinates, so he could only suppress his strength and ask questions in a loud voice, and that tone made several scouts of the Chang family look at each other, and some didn't know how to deal with it.
After telling the previous things that happened to the scouts on both sides again, the last Wu Chang, who took the lead, hugged his fists and said: "Little grandfather, we are just subordinates, and we really don't know about some things." However, our second master is behind, and Uncle Wuqing He is also there, if the little grandfather has any doubts, he must be able to gain something. ”
Xu Peng held back the fire, nodded and said, "Chang Er?" It's okay, the master will go to see him, but I have to ask him what he wants to do with his uncle, is he really full of food and hold on! Go, lead the way ahead!"
He couldn't hold back his words anymore. Originally, if it weren't for the Chang family who suddenly appeared like this, just He Yan's side, he would not have caused this kind of oolong by counting the number of people. But the Chang family inserted such a lever horizontally and completely misled him. What's the matter, for the sake of a woman, just chasing Baba so tightly, isn't it enough to support what?
What else is that bastard, who is so blind that the boss trusts him, he doesn't care about the business, but he runs to mix with the Chang family, if this Nima hadn't been clever just now, he noticed that something was wrong, and if he was a little later, the fun would have been great.
By the way, there is also a cold face! That bastard dragged 2580,000 yuan on weekdays, as if everyone owed him a hundred hanging money, and the boss sent him to contact the Chang family, so he didn't know how to stop him?
Thinking like this, he immediately called out a group of relatives, and only let a small team of people go to the back to appease the wolf king, while the others were violent, and they came directly to the chasing soldiers of Chang and He.
Here, Chang Bao and He Yan had already received a scout report. Chang Bao stroked his forehead and smiled bitterly, and sighed to He Yan: "This is troublesome, that guy is just a bastard, and now I'm afraid it's going to be entangled." ”
He Yan is also a little big, who would have thought that it would be like this? Originally, there was a score of two north-south attacks, which is good, but he didn't calculate the enemy but put his teammates in first, does this count as guessing the beginning, but not the end?
Thinking of Xu Pengju's virtue, He Yan also scratched his head for a while. Compared with Zhang Yue and Xu Guangzuo, that thing is a ruffian at all, and he had to stir up three points if he ignored it in the past. This time I grabbed the handle for him, well, as Chang Bao said, some of them are annoying.
Both of them had a headache about how to face Xu Pengju, but they didn't know that the real catastrophe was like the difference between heaven and earth compared to this.
Not to mention that Xu Pengju had a lively time after the meeting with them here, just Xu Guangzuo, who left alone early.
Knowing that there were horse bandits who wanted to attack Xincheng, Xu Guangzuo was willing to follow behind slowly? Immediately rushed out alone with a sword.
It's just that he is a person after all, the vast grassland is empty, and he is the best at camouflage, where can he be so easy to find? In this way, after several days in a row, he finally gained nothing.
I had no choice but to go back to Chang's house, and went straight to Ordos New City to find it. Thinking that this is the ultimate goal of the horse bandits anyway, as long as they come and wait first, they will always miss the excitement.
In this way, this day will be less than a day's journey away from the destination, but the sky is gradually getting dark. I wondered if I would just stay overnight and wait until dawn tomorrow to rush over. But seeing the high expanse of the grassland on the autumn night, he suddenly became proud, only tightened the long sword in his hand, and simply sang loudly.
After a short time, suddenly I realized something, and the song stopped abruptly, and I squinted my eyes and listened.
In the dark night, the sound of hooves was faint, and the moonlight was shattered......
