Chapter 721: Ambush

In the conversation with the two barbarian leaders, since they couldn't get any useful information, they didn't talk a few words, and the conversation between Liu Zheng and the two barbarian leaders broke up unhappily.

When the two barbarian leaders saw Liu Zheng, they didn't seem to have anything to say, so they directly offered their leave, and left again along the stream in the two small boats they came, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After they left, Liu Zheng looked at Guo Jia beside him.

"Fengxiao, what do you think these two barbarian leaders mean?"

"My lord, these two seem to be very hostile to us."

"Yes, there is a lot of hostility, it stands to reason that they should not have such a great hostility towards us, after all, they are good friends with Guo Shi, and we are also good friends with Guo Shi, if they want to continue to maintain a good relationship with Guo Shi, they should also take the initiative to make friends with us."

"Judging by the performance of these two people, they don't seem to have a good impression of us."

"Yes, lord, there must be something going on here that we don't know yet, I think that if the lord wants to understand what is going on in this Wuling County, it is best to find the former subordinates of Guo Shida's family, and we may be able to understand more clearly from their mouths."

Guo Jia expressed his opinion at Liu Zheng.

"Having said that, it's just Guo Shi's original subordinates, and now it's not so easy to find it, I hope we can find it."

"Don't worry about Guo Shi's subordinates, Shiwu, go and help me contact the leaders of Youxi and Luxi in the next two days, and then we will negotiate with them."

Liu Zheng once again handed over this task to Shiwu.

"Yes."

After receiving the order, Shiwu went down and took action.

A few more days passed. There was also news from Youxi and Luxi that they were willing to meet with Liu Zheng, but like the ideas put forward by the people from Xiongxi and Manxi tribes, they would not come to Yiling to meet Liu Zheng, but asked Liu Zheng to meet at the place they designated.

Because of the experience of meeting with the two tribes of Xiongxi and Manxi last time, Liu Zheng didn't care so much about this, and quickly agreed to the other party.

Liu Zheng continued to lead Guo Jia, Dian Wei and hundreds of Jinyi guards to the agreed place according to what the other party said.

This time it was also agreed to be next to a stream, but this stream was steep, there was no river beach but cliffs on both sides, and a stream zigzagged forward.

Liu Zheng could only let Shiwu get a few boats, take the boat, and go to the agreed place by water.

However, on the way to Youxi, when they passed by a river beach with cliffs on both sides, many archers suddenly stood up on both sides of the river beach, and without saying a word, they launched an attack directly on the boats of Liu Zheng and others on the river.

Arrows flew from both sides.

Liu Zheng hadn't noticed it yet, but Dian Wei was alert by nature, and immediately noticed that something was wrong with the cliffs on both sides, and immediately shouted at the people on the boat.

"If there is an enemy, be careful!"

Dian Wei immediately stood up and protected Liu Zheng's body, wanting to block these arrows for Liu Zheng, while using the weapon in his hand to intercept the arrows, and at the same time let Liu Zheng enter the cabin to dodge.

Although the number of those archers on the cliffs on both sides was small, the archery skills were obviously good, and several of the Jinyi guards on the boat were directly shot and fell on the surface of the river.

Liu Zheng was frightened by this situation, although it was not the first time he had encountered the situation of assassination, but this time, it was obviously the most dangerous.

Liu Zheng, who was hiding in the cabin, pulled Guo Jia and carefully hid together, Guo Jia doesn't know any martial arts, and his body is weak, relatively speaking, it is not as good as Liu Zheng, so Liu Zheng is also worried that Guo Jia will suffer some losses here, in case his life is not good, like Liu Bei's phoenix chick Pang Tong, he was killed by an arrow, then Liu Zheng will lose a lot.

"Dian Wei, let the boatman speed up the voyage and get out of here quickly."

"Yes! Lord. ”

Dian Wei cautiously walked out of the cabin and ordered the boatman outside to sail quickly, and after the boatman was shot, Dian Wei also went into battle himself and rowed the boat with oars.

With the flying of arrows, the sailing of the ship, the number of arrows falling on the ship became less and less, Dian Wei let the ship sail quickly, and after a few breaths, the ship passed through this cliff, and Dian Wei walked into the cabin and spoke to Liu Zheng.

"Lord, it's okay, those people can't shoot."

Dian Wei looked at Liu Zheng, and after seeing that Liu Zheng was fine, he was relieved, and he could be regarded as having survived this hurdle without danger.

Liu Zheng blackened his face and walked out of the cabin.

"Dian Wei, what do you think is this person dealing with us?"

"Needless to say, only the people of the Youxi tribe know our whereabouts, only they know that we will come to see the people of the Youxi tribe at this time, and only they are here to set up an ambush to ambush us, lord, we don't have to go over, go back to Yiling directly, and lead the troops to destroy the people of the Youxi tribe directly."

Dian Wei only thought that the people who set up ambushes here were the people of the Youxi tribe, and they wanted to go directly to the Youxi tribe without saying a word.

But Liu Zheng frowned.

"No, maybe not from the Youxi tribe. As you said, our whereabouts should only be known to the people of the Youxi tribe, if they want to assassinate us, isn't it clear that they want to fight against us, if they don't succeed, then we will definitely raise troops to attack them, aren't they looking for death? ”

"Then the lord thinks that these people, whose people are they?"

"I don't know, but I guess it's not from the Youxi tribe, if it's really from the Youxi tribe, then they're too stupid."

Just as Liu Zheng was talking to Dian Wei, Guo Jia, who walked in from outside, suddenly spoke.

"Lord, something is wrong, where have we got."

When Liu Zheng heard Guo Jia's words, he was immediately curious, and walked directly to the deck of the boat, and glanced nearby, but saw that it was a big stream just now, but now he walked into a small stream, which could only pass the size of a small boat.

On the shore on both sides, there is a peach blossom forest, and it is March at this time.

The peach blossoms on the peach tree are blooming luxuriantly, and the pink petals stain this forest a little weirdly.

"Huh? This doesn't seem to be the place we agreed with those people of the Youxi tribe. ”

Although the scenery outside is good, Liu Zheng is still a little suspicious.

"yes, how can there be a peach grove here?"

"And it's such a big piece, Dian Wei, drive the boat over and have a look."

Liu Zheng led people to have some curiosity about this place, asked Jinyiwei to open the way, took the injured and walked over together.
