The road outside Huguan is not too easy to walk. Although the road was more than a foot wide, except for a few feet in the middle that had been trampled on a sturdy surface, both sides were overgrown with weeds and thorns, and the two thousand Wei Bo soldiers led by Tian Ji lined up in three columns, walking silently on this road that had been built many years ago. The soldiers who walked in front kept waving their horizontal knives in their hands, cutting off the weeds and thorns on the road. At the end of each line, a new group of people will be added to repeat the work.

On one side of the road is a dense forest, and on the other side is a wide ravine, and the stream is babbling, which can only be seen in the middle of the place, and the rest of the place is strange and rocky

Tian Ji rode on his horse and walked silently.

Tian Yue's meaning has been passed on to every core disciple of the Tian family. Seizing the emperor is the only chance for the Tian clan to regain his strength, otherwise if it continues like now, the Tian clan will simply become someone else's thug after all. Just like now, Xuanwu was sent to Luzhou to confront Hedong and Wuwei, but Wuwei's main force in Zhaoyi was one of the few, and now except for Zhu Youzhen, they have basically been transferred.

Hedong and Wuwei, each one is easy to deal with, if it continues to be consumed like this, the elite Wei Bobing, I am afraid that it will not be long before they will disappear.

Without this elite army, what foothold will the Tian clan hold?

After catching the emperor, Liu Ruyan, and Mrs. Wang, they had the capital to bargain with Hedong and Wuwei, threatening them not to covet Zhaoyi anymore. And with the emperor in hand, he can attract some festival towns to expand his power. Wu Wei will not give in, but Hedong Han Qi may become their ally.

So this time the Tian brothers did their best. Except for Tian Yue, who relied on high walls and deep bases in Luzhou to confront Hedong Wuwei, the other main forces of Wei Bobing were almost all transferred out to encircle and suppress Qianniuwei.

They must take down the emperor before Zhu Youzhen arrives.

The soldiers and horses of the imperial court can go to a limited place, Luzhou has a heavy army to gather, they will definitely not go anywhere, and to go to Luzhou, they will inevitably have to pass through the pot pass, which is a place where one man blocks the pass and ten thousand people do not open. As long as the mind is slightly clear, it will not take this path.

The rest, that is, to Changzhi and Tun, went to stay there, and where was it, Tian Ping had already gathered momentum. And now, the surrounding soldiers and horses are also surrounding in this direction.

Originally, Tian Ji didn't take Qianniuwei in his eyes, but in the battle of Le'an, they impressed all the Wei Bo officers and soldiers, defeated Zhu Youwen's main force, and beheaded Zhu Youwen, which has already shown the combat effectiveness of this army.

This is also the reason why Tian Ji brought out all the main forces of Wei Bo under his command this time, Zhaoyi's soldiers and horses, to be honest, he really didn't like it.

Of course, more importantly, their will to fight is not resolute. If you take them to the battlefield, if something goes wrong at that time, it will ruin the overall situation.

Tian Ji, who was thinking while walking, never thought that in the dense forest on the side, he was staring at him with several pairs of eyes.

There weren't many people, just seven or eight people. Covered in a thick camouflage of weeds and trees, they were lying on the ground, staring at the team that was slowly moving forward not far away.

Speaking from the heart, Wei Bo was very strict in governing the army, and when this army was marching, he also maintained a very high degree of vigilance, and the separation between the troops was extremely appropriate.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first, Li Hai, are you sure?" Liu Ruyan said in a low voice. At this time, she was holding her cyan spear in her hand, carrying a leather bag with six stainless steel short spears inserted in it, like a peacock with the screen open. "More than a hundred paces, my spear can't be thrown."

"If Tian Ji can be killed with one arrow, this battle will be easy to fight, otherwise this army will have a dozen with us." Tuhu Road. The layman looks at the excitement, the insider looks at the doorway, even if he just glances at the marching posture of this army, Tu Hu also knows that this is a tough battle.

There are only a thousand of them, and the number is only half of the opponent's, even though the individual combat ability is definitely higher than the opponent's, and they have the advantage of raiding, but if they want to win easily, I am afraid that it is impossible.

And what they are most worried about is that this army sees that the situation is not good, and a strong man breaks his wrist and escapes back to Huguan, especially if Tian Ji escapes back to Huguan, it will be a big trouble.

Li Hai put the feather arrow on the bow, bent his knees and half knelt, and slowly pulled the bow.

"It's a pity that the bow was taken away by Chen Changping, otherwise I am ten percent sure of this distance, but now, I only have eight to ninety percent."

"You relaxed and ejaculated." Liu Ruyan clenched the gun in his hand: "I will keep an eye on him, if I miss an arrow, I will stare at him until I kill him." ”

Li Hai stopped talking, and the bow had been drawn to the full moon.

Several people around him stopped talking. They just got up from the ground one after another, ripped off the camouflage on their bodies, half-bowed, and made a gesture of charging.

Above the mountain pass, the army was still advancing in silence.

A tiger roar suddenly sounded at the foot of the opposite mountain across the ditch, Tian Ji was slightly startled, turned his head to look in the direction where the tiger roar came from, a huge colorful tiger, at this moment, was actually staring at them in the ravine not far from them. It didn't seem to be afraid of the army in the slightest, and perhaps the presence of it disturbed its quiet drinking, and it roared in dissatisfaction and stared at it defiantly.

Many of the Wei Bo soldiers were excited, but there was no order from the officer, and they just looked at the tiger in silence.

Xu was provoked but did not get a response, and the tiger roared again.

"This beast really doesn't know whether to live or die." In the roar of the tiger, Tian Ji couldn't help laughing: "But let you go, but let me see you again, I can't say that there will be an extra tiger skin on my big chair." ”

The smile bloomed on Tian Ji's face, but it froze again, and he turned his head suddenly.

In the field of vision, only a trace of an arrow was seen.

In the roar of the tiger just now, Li Hai seized this God-given opportunity and released the three fingers of the arrow.

The sound of the feather arrow breaking through the air was muffled by the sound of the tiger's roar, and almost all Wei Bobing's attention was attracted by this big tiger.

When Tian Ji was alert, it was too late.

The feathered arrows have arrived.

Tian Ji only had time to open his mouth wide in shock.

Feathered arrows shot through his gaping mouth and peeked through the back of his neck.

Tian Ji planted his horse without saying a word.

Almost at the same time as he planted it, Liu Ruyan had already rushed out of hiding place like a cheetah, and behind her, Tu Hu, Xiao Cicada and others followed closely.

Li Hai wiped the cold sweat on his face, and said that he was lucky, he also saw Tian Ji's reaction just now, if it wasn't for this tiger, he was afraid that his arrow would be difficult to work.

"Bodhisattva bless, Li Hai will never kill a tiger again in this life!" Li Hai, who was in his heart, also ran forward. As he ran, he pulled an arrow from his waist and wound it up. The place where they charged was exactly in the middle of this army, that is, the position of the middle army where Tian Ji was.

Tian Ji fell, and the surrounding soldiers screamed in panic and surrounded him. But the other Wei Bobing, at this moment, raised the weapons in their hands and met them brazenly under the command of an officer.

The sound of the horn suddenly sounded, and the Wei Bo soldiers in the rear quickly dispersed and rushed forward, many of them even jumped down the ravine and rushed like apes to support the Chinese army. The front army, however, turned on the spot at the sound of a trumpet, formed a military formation, and turned back to advance at the sound of the command.

"Fortunately, I killed Tian Ji." Tu Hu looked at Wei Bobing's reaction, and he couldn't help but call it a fluke in his heart. Wei Bobing was so strong, it was really unexpected to him.

Liu Ruyan didn't think as much as they thought.

Charging up, like a spirit fox, between the rise and fall, she was already within fifty steps of Wei Bo's soldiers, grabbed a short spear from the gun bag behind her back, and threw it towards the Wei Bo officer who was directing the formation in front of her with the momentum of running.

The officer swung his knife at the flying short spear, and just as he opened the first one, the second short spear that followed the hammer passed through the chest, and the officer screamed and fell to the sky.

Short spears flew out one after another, and one after another officers who stood up fell with spears, and the closer they got, the less hope they had of trying to block.

What's more, mixed with these short spears is also the whistling feathered arrows.

Liu Ruyan, who had finished throwing six short spears, raised the cyan spear in his hand and went straight into Wei Bo's army.

And in the dense forest behind them, the elite of more than a thousand people rushed out after them.

Between the valleys, the sound of shouting and killing suddenly rang out.

On the other side of the ravine, the colorful tiger watched all this in amazement, and suddenly, with a cinch of its tail, it leaped ashore and disappeared into the dense forest.

This time, I didn't even dare to scream.

At night, Huguan also lost its former tranquility, with armies shuttling back and forth, and from time to time someone was caught on the street, and then there was a blood-spattered long street. Su Qun's team was arresting the men left behind by Tian Ji in the Huguan.

The hunt lasted until midnight, and Su Qun, who was covered in blood, strode up to the top of the Huguan Tower, where Xue Ping was sitting on a bench, holding a wine jug in one hand, drinking wine while looking into the dark distance.

"Childe, the pot is completely in our hands." Su Qun was still a little nervous, "It's just that I don't know when they will arrive?" ”

"At most, the vanguard will arrive, and in no more than two days, you will see His Majesty the Emperor." Xue Ping said with a smile.

The two of them stood above the juncture like this, you take a sip, I take a sip, and it didn't take long for the jug to be empty, Xue Ping shook his hand and threw the jug off the juncture, but the two of them still stood there and didn't move.

When the sky was slightly bright, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and a touch of fiery red came into Xue Ping's eyes, Xue Ping's legs were weak, and he almost fell.

"Here they are." He said excitedly.
