Chapter 298: Mid-ambush
"There were so many horses coming and going, and the footprints were very messy, probably left behind when the army went to Hesse. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Next to him, Zhong Fei, who was beside Qu Wei, thought for a while and said.
Also, when they came over, they chased very hurriedly, and did not carefully look at the direction of the footprints, and now the snow on the ground has long been trampled by the horses' hooves, and they can't see anything anymore.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, when General Sun was arming in the valley, he found an abnormal place, and he is now checking it. The spies who had just been arranged found out about the arrival of the prince, so General Sun sent his subordinates to greet His Royal Highness the prince to go in and have a look. ”
The team leader made the matter clear in a few words, and then walked to the front to lead the way.
Although he was very puzzled by the sudden disappearance of the Yanhuo Kingdom army, Situ Jingtian also secretly examined this group of sergeants a few times, but he couldn't see the slightest strangeness in the expressions of these people.
Moreover, Situ Jingtian was also a little curious about the abnormality they were talking about, besides, there was no doubt that these people were indeed the soldiers of their Tianshui Kingdom. When everyone followed the group of sergeants to the valley mouth, Situ Jingtian saw General Sun's figure at the valley mouth, and at this moment, everyone no longer doubted it.
"General Sun, really didn't see the people and horses of the Yanhuo Kingdom passing by?"
Seeing General Sun's figure, Qu Wei couldn't help but ask at first. Because this matter is so strange, how could tens of thousands of people disappear out of thin air like that!
"General Qu, I have been guarding this side with the sergeant, and I really haven't seen anyone from Yanhuo Country passing by. I just saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince leading the troops over, and Sun still wondered why you came here by yourself? ”
Hearing Qu Wei's question, General Sun looked at Situ Sedum with a puzzled expression.
"Let's not talk about this for the time being, I just heard this squad leader say that General Sun has found some abnormalities, so let's go into the valley to have a look."
Although he had doubts in his heart, out of trust in his own people, Situ Jingtian did not doubt General Sun's words. Not wanting to continue the topic of the sudden disappearance of the people of Yanhuo Country, Situ Jingtian rode into the valley first.
"General Qu, you lead a thousand sergeants to guard the valley mouth, take over the follow-up troops, and by the way, monitor the surrounding situation, if the Yanhuo Kingdom army comes, immediately enter the valley to inform you."
After taking a few steps, Situ Jingtian turned his head and commanded Qu Wei.
"Yes, the last general commands."
After Qu Wei clenched his fists and received the order, he walked to the end of the army and directly transferred away a thousand-strong team led by a commander.
Situ Jingtian followed General Sun with 9,000 cavalry and came to the center of the valley. But looking at this place, Situ Sedum didn't find anything abnormal.
"General Sun, where is the abnormality you mentioned?"
"Hehe, His Royal Highness the Prince, there is something unusual around here, do you see the boulder in front of you, it's nearby."
With a smile, General Sun dismounted and walked towards a boulder under the cliff he was pointing to.
The boulder and one side of the rock wall were clinging to the rock wall, and there was a hole at the foot of the mountain that could fit about three or five people. Situ Jingtian looked at this place, his interest was also aroused, and he also got off the horse and led the horse over.
Zhong Fei followed, followed by two of Situ Jingtian's own soldiers, and the rest of the people rode on their horses and waited in place.
Coming to the bottom of the boulder, Situ Jingtian and Zhong Fei tied their horses to a tree next to the boulder, and followed General Sun into the cave.
"Prince, please look, this is the place where there is an anomaly."
Situ Jingtian looked at General Sun's hand, and it turned out that there were some rough chiseled murals on the stone wall inside the cave. The lines are very rough and the marks are blurred, and at first glance they look old.
"Oh, it turns out that General Sun is referring to this, it is said that tens of thousands of years ago, there were some ancestors living here, and these mural stone carvings were left by them, which is something that almost everyone in the border city knows."
Zhong Fei glanced at the mural that General Sun was referring to, then shook his head with a smile. He really didn't expect that General Sun's so-called discovery of the anomaly turned out to be this thing.
"Oh, is it? Haha, the last general really didn't know this, so His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and General Zhong laughed. ”
Zhong Fei paused for a moment, and then laughed, as if he was very embarrassed, but he told Situ Jingtian and Zhong Fei not to say anything, and they also laughed.
The three of them were laughing, and suddenly a rumbling sound came, and then Situ Jingtian and Zhong Fei felt the ground shake like a mountain, and then, in the valley outside the cave, there were screams of the sergeants.
Situ Jingtian's face changed, and he hurriedly ran out, he had just come to the entrance of the cave and poked out a foot, when suddenly a black shadow fell on his head. Fortunately, Zhong Fei, who was following him, dragged him back, so he was not hit by the black shadow.
When he stood firm, Situ Jingtian looked at it in disbelief, but it turned out to be a rolling stone that rolled down the mountain, almost hitting himself who was about to get out of the hole.
"Rolling Stones? Not good! ”
As soon as he pushed Zhong Fei's hand away, Situ Jingtian walked out of the cave and looked out, and saw his nine thousand cavalry, who had been killed and injured countless by rolling stones at this time, and there were shouts and screams everywhere.
Looking at the tragedy in front of him, Situ Jingtian was stunned for a moment.
"This, how is this possible? Have I been ambushed in ......?"
"Ahh It turned out to be you, you traitor! ”
Zhong Fei's roar suddenly came from behind him, and Situ Jingtian turned his head to look and saw that the two soldiers who came with him had fallen to the ground with bleeding necks. And Zhong Fei was already bleeding from his shoulder in front of him.
"It seems that General Zhong Fei blocked a sword for himself."
The things in front of him were already very obvious, and Situ Jingtian reacted immediately.
"Why? General Sun, as a native of Tianshui Country, why do you want to collude with the people of Yanhuo Country and backstock your own country! ”
Listening to the screams outside, Situ Jingtian's breathing became heavy, and he looked at General Sun with a smug face in his eyes.
"There is no why, just to each his own master. It just so happens that my master wants His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to die. Then, His Royal Highness the Prince, please leave your life behind! ”
With a wicked smile, General Sun walked over step by step with his sword.
"Prince be careful, his sword is poisonous."
Zhong Fei's body shook for a moment, and finally spurted out a mouthful of black blood and fell to the ground.
"General Zhong!"
Seeing Zhong Fei's face turn blue and fall to the ground, fortunately, his chest was still undulating, Situ Jingtian finally breathed a sigh of relief. But when he turned his eyes to General Sun who came over, the fierce murderous aura was finally vigorously suppressed.
"You must die!" (To be continued.) )
