Shi Sha, who was dressed in heavy armor, climbed to the top floor of the Xi Shi Boat and bowed to Cao Miao. Steady and majestic.

Cao Miao nodded indifferently and got up to leave the cabin. Ah Hu and the three followed. They also put on armor and brought weapons, although they were not as exaggerated as Shi Sha, but they were also solemn and ready to fight.

When they came downstairs, Liu Chen and the five of them bowed their hands and surrounded them, three people in front and two people in the back, protecting Cao Miao in the center. They had no helmets, wore simple martial arts, and wore two armors that could only cover their chests and backs, which was pitifully simple compared to the heavily armed soldiers of the Liberation Battalion.

On the shore, Cao Miao got on the horse and bowed to Shi Shagong, who was walking side by side.

"There's Captain Raud."

Shi Sha stroked his chest and returned the salute. "Please rest assured that Cao Jun is foolproof." With a wave of his hand, the twenty soldiers of the Liberation Battalion were divided into two teams, leading the front and back, serving them, and moving forward quickly. Except for the sound of neat footsteps and the rustle of the nail leaves, no one spoke.

Looking at these elites of the Trouble-Relief Battalion who were waiting for them, Cao Miao nodded secretly. The three kingdoms were separated, Wei, Shu and Wu had their own advantages, and the Wu army, in addition to the advantages of the water army, was the elite infantry represented by the Danyang soldiers. Most of these foot soldiers were Yamakoshi, who were fierce and aggressive by nature, physically strong, and had outstanding personal abilities. As the elite of the elite, the Relief Battalion has the best equipment, and its combat effectiveness is beyond doubt.

If anyone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to attack him, it is really like a tiger's whiskers.

news, he has been released. Whether anyone dares to come, it is not something he can control.

For Shi Sha, she should be eager for a fight. Putting on such a big formation, if you just be a guard of honor, it would be too wasteful. Cao Miao believed that the troops she led were not just the twenty people in front of her, and that more people should be hidden in the shadows, waiting for the assassins to appear.

This is Mrs. Sun's test for her, and it is also a test for his Cao Miao.

Again, this is also a test for his subordinates. This opportunity is not good, but it is very rare. If you don't dare to make a move, you won't have a chance in the future. Han Long said that Yinbo was dead, but Cao Miao felt a lot of suspicions, and took this opportunity to test the truth and reality.

Whether Cao Rong is a good emperor or not can be discussed, but he is by no means the kind of iron-headed baby who insists on going his own way. Knowing that Yinbo was not suitable for the industry, but he clearly refused, he still secretly poked and poked Yinbo to Jiangdong, and there must be hidden secrets. When Yinfan cooperated with him and admitted that he was the rumor-monger, Lu Yi invited Mrs. Sun and Sun Luban aside, and then skipped Yuan Yao, adding a bit of treachery.

This matter has something to do with the Yuan family?

Cao Miao has been thinking about this these days. The stakes are very high, and although the conjecture can be bold, the research must be cautious and not careless.

The top priority is to confirm the life and death of Yinbo.

There were too many suspicious points about the corpse of Yinbo that Han Long saw, and it was difficult not to doubt the authenticity. Han Long didn't know the inside story, but he was a participant, and I believe that things won't be so simple. If there really is any inside story, it seems that Sun Quan should not kill Yinfan.

If Yinbo was alive, his subordinates would naturally not come to the adventure. From this point of view, it seems that Mrs. Sun does not know the inside story, otherwise there is no need to be so solemn.

Of course, she may also want to cover it up, or have other intentions.

Everything is possible without definitive evidence, and avoiding preconceptions is a basic principle.

Along the avenue, I walked forward for more than five miles, and gradually left the residential area and entered the military zone. There are fewer houses in front of me, but there are more lakes. Ships cruised on the lake, their hulls were not large, and there were not many soldiers on board, but there were only three or five people, mainly patrolling.

The pair walked more than a mile and came to a long causeway. The causeway is between the two lakes, about 30 steps wide and more than 2 miles long. On the north side of the end of the causeway, you can vaguely see the palace wall of Wuchang Palace.

Shi Sha obviously relaxed a lot, his back that had been standing up was a little more natural, and his hand was much farther away from the ring knife on his waist, no longer looking like he was facing a great enemy, ready to draw his sword at any time to face the battle. She looked back at Cao Miao and said with a smile: "Cao Jun, after this Daodi, you will arrive." ”

Cao Miao bowed slightly. "Thank you, Captain."

"It should." Shi Sha smiled proudly: "Madame is the sister of King Wu and is deeply trusted by King Wu. Cao Jun returned to righteous Dawu, if he was protected by his wife, he could sit back and relax. ”

Cao Miao smiled. "What the Lieutenant said is very true, and I thought so at the beginning."

Shi Sha's face turned red, and he was about to speak, when his expression suddenly changed, and he raised his hand and shouted: "Be on guard!" Go see which song it is, what's the matter? ”

Cao Miao turned around and looked along Shi Sha's line of sight, only to see a Mengchong warship covered with a bamboo canopy sailing over, and the speed was extremely fast. Judging by the draft, there are only a lot of people on board. At the bow of the boat stood a person, waving a colorful flag in his hand, while constantly reaching out to point behind Cao Miao and his party.

Cao Miao swept his eyes and saw that there was also a Meng Chong approaching on the other side, and he could vaguely see the figure swaying under the canopy.

Cao Miao's eyebrows raised lightly. Someone really came, which surprised him somewhat. Even if the terrain was suitable for flanking attacks, there were a few people on the two boats, and in the face of twenty relief soldiers, they didn't seem to have much chance.

There was no need for Cao Miao to remind him, Shi Sha was also aware of the danger. She shouted loudly and ordered the soldiers to switch to defensive mode, with Cao Miao as the center, forming a double shield array, and serving left and right. The terrain was limited, and in order to stand in formation, the front row of relief soldiers had to stand in shallow water.

Shi Sha beckoned Cao Miao to dismount and use the war horse as a cover to avoid becoming the target of the opponent's crossbowmen.

Approaching thirty paces away, the two Mengchong warships stopped, and the soldiers at the bow pointed behind Cao Miao and the others, shouting loudly.

As soon as her feet landed, Cao Miao felt the ground tremble and became vigilant. He jumped to his feet and glanced the way he came, his cheeks twitching twice.

More than a dozen cows came galloping, and two men who looked like cattle dealers followed behind, shouting and screaming, as if they wanted to stop the herd, but the whip in their hands was flicked, stimulating the cattle to speed up and run wildly.

Although in danger, Cao Miao still praised it. This method is good, in this kind of terrain, against a limited number of elite of the Relief Battalion, the use of cattle as a means of attack is very limited. No matter how good the soldiers are, they can't stop the crazy cow, and there are swamps by the lake on both sides, so it is impossible to avoid them, and the only option is to flee along the causeway and in the direction of Wuchang Palace.

But who knows if there will be crossbows on the boats in the lake on both sides, just waiting for them to escape?

Even if he escaped, except for him and Shi Sha, who had mounts, how could a two-legged foot soldier outrun a four-legged cow?

Cao Miao quickly glanced at the location of the two Mengchong warships, and could almost conclude that the people on the warships were waiting for him and Shi Sha to escape from the cover of the foot soldiers and escape on horseback.

The other party's plan is very thorough, and the power used is also amazing. Judging from Shi Sha's expression, the appearance of these two Mengchong warships was obviously not within her expectations, she looked a little flustered, wanted to ride her horse out, but was afraid of traps, and did not dare to act rashly.

In the blink of an eye, a cow had already rushed in front of him, knocking the three trouble-relieving soldiers who were in the rush of it.
