Chapter 94: Capture the thief and capture the king first
Looking at the Huaishuo soldiers around, Duanmu Xu didn't understand what was going on at first, but when he saw Cao Decheng slowly riding out of the urn city gate, he roughly understood.
Cao Decheng waved his hand and shouted, "Take down this golden tent spy for me." ”
"Team Cao, don't slander people for no reason. I can't afford to be accused of being a sprite in the Golden Horde. Duanmu didn't panic. He wanted to see who was behind the trick. Even if he can't talk about it later, he is confident that he can escape from here.
"The surname is white, I'm not slandering you. This is Cao Junhou's order. Cao Decheng thought that this time he could finally avenge the broken arm that day.
When those Huaishuo soldiers heard that it was Cao Junhou's order, they surrounded Duanmu Xu even tighter, for fear that this kid would suddenly rise up and break out of the encirclement, so they would have to take responsibility.
"I'm going to meet Captain Shi. The Golden Horde's scheming is not something that can be slandered casually. Duanmu Xu did not dismount, and his hand was also pressed on the sword of Xinmu.
"Okay, bring him in. When the time comes, you will be convinced. Cao Decheng sneered in his heart, this kid still thinks that he is still a celebrity next to Captain Shi.
Surrounded by everyone in front and behind, Duanmu Xu entered the urn city and came to the familiar school field.
On the school ground, there were Huaishuo soldiers from various battalions, Duanmu Xu saw a few acquaintances, Wei Team and Ma Niu'er, and of course, Captain Shi on the city tower.
When the sentry on the corner tower reported that Bai Xu was riding back to the city, Shi Jiwei was still thinking about how to deal with the next criticism of the imperial court. Since he realized that he had made a big mistake, he was even more determined to exonerate the Shi family, even if he couldn't save it, he had to keep the foundation of the Shi family.
Shi Jiwei led his troops north, vowing to find the traces of the Golden Horde without giving up, but received an urgent request for help from Huaihuang Military Town. In the territory of Huaihuang, the traces of the Golden Horde army were discovered, and Captain Duan was ready for battle, so he sent scouts to report the news.
This military report surprised Shi Jiwei.
How could the Golden Horde army go south again to attack Huaihuang Military Town? Or should it go south to attack Danzhou? Didn't the Golden Horde army go north?
The news that the Golden Horde army was conjectured by Pan Zihan, but this person is now missing. If the Golden Horde was originally going to attack the annexed state, after seeing that Daxian sent people to strengthen the annexed state, they would turn south and pass through Huaihuang.
Shi Jiwei is thinking about whether to go north or south.
There are reasons to go north and south, but it is more prudent to go south, not only can you take care of the defense of the state again, compared with Huaihuang, if the pursuit of the Golden Horde is meritorious, Huaishuo's merit is bound to be greater, and the sin of losing it may be offset at that time.
After making up his mind, Shi Jiwei ordered the Huaishuo army to turn around and go south. When the army passed through Huaishuo, a piece of news made Shi Jiwei suddenly startled. There was a problem with the scouts of Huaihuang Military Town, who came to deliver the letter, and they originally went south with the Huaishuo army, but they disappeared, and what was even more bizarre was that when Wang Lushi went to find the emergency military report again, the collected military newspaper was also gone.
The people mysteriously disappeared, and even the military newspapers sent disappeared with them.
Shi Jiwei hurriedly ordered to stop going south and returned to Huaishuo Guancheng. He doesn't know if he's going north or south. However, the letter from Xianjing's flying pigeon made him fall into an ice cave, and the Golden Horde was completely annihilated at Bowangfeng, and the Beiting Army and the Wuchuan Army made great contributions. Huai Shuojun has no chance to make meritorious service if he wants to be guilty, and the only thing left is to be held accountable. The saint was furious and ordered a strict trial of the generals of the Huaishuo army.
When Shi Jiwei was in a dilemma, the sentry on the corner tower came to report, and the white team was riding back to the city. This time, Pan Zihan and Bai Xu actually escaped the responsibility of the saints, but made great contributions. If such a conclusion can be reversed, then another reason for Huaishuo's loss can be added, there are traitors in Huaishuo's army.
Shi Jiwei knew that it would be difficult to escape punishment this time, but he couldn't let the Pan family benefit from it, and he had to drag the Pan family into the water. Not for yourself, this is for the Shi family.
Duanmu Xu was on the school grounds, looked up at Shi Jiwei on the upper floor of the city, and felt the hostility from the surrounding Huaishuo soldiers, and understood in his heart. The words of the captain, the words of the marquis, and the anger of the slaughter just suffered by the Golden Horde were all transferred to himself as a "spy".
Unsuspecting crowds are always easily fooled.
"Bai Xu, you colluded with the golden tent hidden in Youyi Xuan to murder tens of thousands of my Huaishuo army, causing the loss of Guancheng and the destruction of life, can you be guilty?" Shi Jiwei was on the city tower, his voice was painful.
"Captain Shi, he has never done anything that is detrimental to Huaishuo and Daxian, and he has not had any contact with the Golden Horde. But I believe that Captain Shi arbitrarily convicted me so arbitrarily, why on earth?" Duanmu Xu's hand was already clenched, thinking that once he couldn't talk, he would directly break out of the encirclement.
Shi Jiwei smiled slightly. He reorganized the various things before and after the fall of Huaishuo, and realized that he had long fallen into the enemy's calculations. These enemies include the Golden Horde spies in Youyixuan, as well as the calculations from the Pan family and the Four Princes, and possibly the person downstairs. He and Pan Zihan are so close, and these two people are the only ones missing from the Holy Punishment. What other reasons do you need to condemn Bai Xu?
Shi Jiwei didn't speak again, but waved his hand, the meaning was very simple, take it.
When he saw Shi Jiwei wave his hand, Duanmu Xu, who had already been on guard, rushed forward directly on horseback, and the Xinmu sword in his hand was already out of the sheath. His first target was Cao Decheng. Capture the thief and capture the king first, at least in the circle of people around him, the leader is Cao Decheng.
As soon as the horse under him rushed forward two steps, Duanmu Xu found that he seemed to have lost the momentum to rush forward. At a glance, he saw that the horse had been hit by two arrows.
He will capture the thief and capture the king first, and others will shoot people and horses first.
At the moment before the horse was about to fall to the ground, Duanmu Xu stepped on the horse's back with both legs, and the whole person had already rushed forward, and he took Cao Decheng, who was a little panicked.
Duanmu Xu was castrated like lightning, and when he swung away the arrow in his left hand, the Xinmu Sword in his right hand had already killed Cao Decheng.
Before the saber in Cao Decheng's hand could be intercepted, the sword had already reached his throat, and with a splash of blood, the marquis of Cao Jun, who had been famous in Huaishuo Military Town, fell to the ground.
Duanmu Xu took advantage of the situation and rode on Cao Decheng's military horse, slapped the horse again, and continued to rush forward. killed a Cao Decheng, and he may have to shoot his sword tens of millions of times later.
Seeing the tragic death of his younger brother, Cao Dacheng, who had been accompanying Shi Jiwei, was stunned, and rushed down from the city tower.
After Duanmu Xu swung his sword and shot arrows, he easily eliminated a few Huaishuo soldiers who had killed the generals, and rushed towards the direction of the city tower. Capture the thief and capture the king first, if you want to capture it, of course, you have to deal with the one on the city tower, otherwise you will really be besieged in the Huaishuo soldiers, even if you have the cultivation of the lower realm, you will be exhausted after all.
After picking up the Huaishuo soldiers who surrounded him layer by layer, Duanmu Xu got closer to the city tower. There are people who are filled with righteous indignation, and there are naturally people who are skeptical. When Duanmu Xu got closer to the city tower, he happened to meet Wei Zongliang and Ma Niu'er.
Duanmu Xu's sword is still forward, but it is no longer so fast, and the saber of Wei Zongliang and the others is also forward, but it seems to be slightly deflected outward.
Duanmu Xu rode forward, Wei Zongliang and the others also moved forward, but it was a coincidence that the sword and the knife were handed over, but the strength was not so great, and Duanmu Xu people just rushed over.
The time in Huaishuo is not long, and not all people want to kill themselves, Duanmu Xu felt a trace of comfort. However, when he approached the castle tower, he saw someone who really wanted to kill him.
