When they heard that the enemy's grain convoy had suddenly diverted its course, all the officers were a little surprised, and they all flocked to the terrace outside the big gap on the west side of the city wall to look at it, but they saw that a party that stretched for two or three miles to the west was lit with torches in a line, and it was like a fire earthworm winding through the dark and vast field.

Ran Linde frowned, pondering why the grain team suddenly changed routes, and calculating how to swallow this enemy in one bite, but he couldn't think of a clear eyebrow for a while, and when he saw that the detective who came back to report the news was also following him, he remembered that he had forgotten an important question, and stared at the detective post with a cold gaze and asked, "How many enemies are there?" ”

"General Yu Ran: There are a lot of people. There were at least 100 camels and horses, and there were also thirty or forty ox carts, and the number of guards was not clear, only that they were all cavalry, and they were flying black flags. ”

The Big Horde? Ran Linde nodded silently. If it is the big tent that guards the grain team, it means that this is not an ordinary grain team; Although he couldn't guess what the team was transporting, since he had been hit by himself, he had to intercept it anyway! No matter what's in the team, don't let it pass in peace! Suddenly, he seemed to remember something important, turned his head and asked anxiously, "Zheng Qi, why are you here?" ”

Zheng Qi was concentrating on the best way to deal with the enemy, Ran Linde's question came suddenly, and he replied twice in succession: "We were going to go back to Moganzhai from here, but we didn't expect that there were soldiers from the east of the Turbidity, and we couldn't rush through it twice, and it was getting late, so we retreated and wanted to rest......"

Ran Linde interrupted him: "There is an enemy in the east? How many? Why don't you take a detour?! ”

Zheng Qi glanced at Ran Linde in surprise, hesitated for a moment, and defended his old boss aggrievedly: "It's not that we don't want to go around, it's that we can't go around at all!" It's full of soldiers from the Turbids, and you can't avoid it! There are more camps in the south, one after another, all with black flags! ”

The main force of the Turquoise? Ran Linde's deep gaze jumped suddenly. Why did the main force of the Turks suddenly appear here? Could it be that they already knew Chen Zhuguo's whereabouts and came specifically for Princess Changsha? As soon as this thought came to him, he immediately denied it without any reason! Judging from the situation after they crossed the Alechu River, the enemy did not pay special attention to their troops, and the battles were almost always encounters; With the exception of the Ranger they had gotten rid of a few days earlier, the rest of the enemy had no determination or action to pursue them with the intention of defeating them...... But since it wasn't for Princess Changsha, why did the enemy lay heavy troops here?

He frowned and pondered, Chen Pu had already asked, "Captain Zheng, how far is it from Moganzhai here?" ”

"Less than fifty miles to the east." Zheng Qi looked around the people around him in confusion, seeing that everyone was full of astonishment and ecstasy, blinked his eyes, and asked, "...... General, General Ran, you ...... No, you don't even know about this, do you? ”

Wang Yi and Ran Linde looked at each other and smiled bitterly. They have no map, no guide, they are intercepted and chased by one enemy after another, and they hide in Tibet on the reckless grassland like lost dogs, where can they know where and where they are? If they hadn't contacted Zheng Qi and them here, they might have turned around and headed west tomorrow. Chen Pu turned around and stared at the enemy tower in the north, and sighed leisurely: "It turns out that this is the White Rock City......

Wang Yi also sighed with emotion: "The fierce and strong white stone! Heroic warriors! ”

Zheng Qi didn't know that Wang Yi was reciting the famous sentence in the famous Tang Dynasty "Long Knife Fu", so he quietly exchanged glances with the two colleagues, squeezing his eyebrows and looking at each other with a strange expression, and when Chen Pu turned around and looked at him a little, he was solemn.

Ran Linde didn't have as much melancholy as Chen Pu and Wang Yi, and after thinking about it, he had already made up his mind, and his hands held each other's knuckles so that they clicked and clattered, and said: "Since this place is only fifty miles away from Mogan, it is closer to the enemy's main force, and the grain team on the opposite side is their first choice whether it is fighting or camping." Although our number is superior, but the frontal fight is not sure to eat this enemy, the night attack is variable, and it is too late to ambush halfway, so we can only set up an ambush in this white stone city one by one Zheng Qi, your soldiers put a hundred people in the city, and the rest every two hundred are a team to hide in the north and south, and when you see the city starting, you will cover up and kill together; Wang Bao, you lead the rest of the troops to bypass from the north and cut off the enemy's retreat! ”

With a series of unquestionable orders, in less than half a moment, Wang Bao quietly left Tucheng from the east with more than a hundred cavalry; The more than 600 people who remained inside and outside the city also took their positions, all hiding in the weeds behind the wall, rubbing their hands, from small soldiers to generals, all with red eyes puffed out of the cloth to hide blood, staring intently at the "grain team" that was getting closer and closer.

Strange to say, the grain team seemed to have been alerted to an ambush in Tucheng, and the closer they got to Tucheng, the slower they walked, and when they were still three or four miles away from Tucheng, they stopped inexplicably.

Chen Pu hid behind a wall of earth with a scimitar, and looked out from the gap in the city wall, only to see that under the dark night, a team of torches followed from behind, and in a moment the grain team formed a phalanx from a long snake. The figures in the swaying firelight are blurry and discerning, but they can't hear the slightest sound, it is obviously a confrontation of thousands of people on both sides, but there are only four wild insects and the occasional horse neighing or two, a scene that can't be said to be weird.

Waited and waited, the grain team still did not move, she really couldn't hold back the irritability in her heart, carried the knife to the shadow of the city wall by the gap, and was about to ask Ran Linde if he saw what the enemy was planning, so she heard a sound of horses' hooves until it stopped not far in front of Tucheng, followed by a sudden speech.

A small officer of Mogan who was hiding behind her could probably understand the enemy's words, and whispered, "They are asking which team is here." ”

Ran Linde and Chen Pu glanced at him at the same time. Ran Linde thought for a while and ordered: "If you answer him, just say that we are the grain team of the Right Great Tengliang Department." ”

The little officer smiled bitterly: "My subordinates can understand, but they can't speak." I don't dare to say it one by one, and I will reveal my words as soon as I say it. He listened attentively to the shouting outside, grinned, swallowed his saliva, and whispered again, "They said that they are the grain team of the Right Great Tengliang Division, and if it is convenient, they hope to rest here for the night." And they did not come in, but encamped outside the city. They wanted to know which team it was, and their leader wanted to come and meet the leader of the troops. ”

A thought immediately floated in Chen Pu's mind: Capture the thief and capture the king first!

She immediately dismissed the almost whimsical idea. This group of enemies was obviously very careful, even in the face of an "empty" city, they still tried and tested, and now even if they only wanted to get the enemy close to the city walls, it was almost impossible to ...... However, if the enemy did not approach the city wall, Zhao Jun's arrangement would be completely in vain, in order not to make the enemy suspicious, hundreds of horses had been led to a grass col a few miles to the east, and the ambush here had no horses, and there was no dense formation, and it would definitely not be able to stop the enemy's horse team from charging; And without horses, even if you win by luck, it is impossible to take advantage of the victory to pursue and expand the results......

Ran Linde's face was full of anxiety, and he was just contemplating the rammed earth and mud with the gap, obviously thinking the same as her. But at this time, he couldn't come up with any good way to attract the enemy's troops.

Wang Yichao, who was on the other side of the gap, made a gesture and rushed out one by one, fighting with them!

Ran Linde shook his head categorically. The two sides are far away, and the big tent soldiers have plenty of time to judge and consider advancing and retreating, and they can only be themselves who rush out and suffer! Besides, since the enemy team has a black flag, it means that the number of the big tent soldiers is not too far from the Zhao army, and the strength of the army may be far superior to their own side...... But, but...... But it doesn't make sense! There was no sound or fire in Tucheng, how could the big tent soldiers know that there was an ambush here? Besides, when did the Great Horde become so polite?

For a moment, countless thoughts and thoughts rolled through his mind, but he could no longer figure out what the reason for the big tent soldiers not to advance or retreat. The petty officer said, "They said...... Goshawks fly in the sky, flocks run on the steppe, wolves ...... Fuck it! I don't understand the following. …… Belch! They're leaving! Overnight! ”

Chen Pu hurriedly said: "You can't let them go!" Our deeds may have been exposed, and it will be dangerous for us to let them go! General Ran, think of a way! Seeing Ran Linde frowning and thinking about it, he didn't care about anything else, he jumped to the gap and raised his knife in two steps, and was about to shout, "Soldiers, come with me!" At the root of the eastern city wall, there was a sudden crackling of a few weapons fighting, and then someone shouted: "him!" The enemy is coming in from here! Then someone shouted: "There are many enemies!" Come on! ”

In the silent night, these screams of blade collision were particularly piercing, and the murderous aura that surged in an instant enveloped this lonely ancient soldier city. The incident came too suddenly, and without any precautions, the soldiers of the Zhao army inside and outside Tucheng were a little flustered. Ran Linde had already understood that he had been deceived, so he pulled out his waist knife and shouted angrily: "The soldiers outside the city will enter the city immediately!" Formation! Alternate cover to retreat to the east! Wang Yi! One by one, you immediately take 200 people out of the city to look for horses, and make sure that the horses are safe! Wen Mu! One by one, the archers sealed this gap! You! He casually nodded to the petty officer who knew the dialect of Tuji, "Take your soldiers and follow me to defeat the enemy in the east!" He had already seen Chen Pu running towards the east city wall with three guards without saying a word, his eyes flashed but he didn't say anything, gritted his teeth and led thirty or forty soldiers to catch up.

In the blink of an eye, the battle under the east city wall was over, and in the darkness, more than a dozen Zhao soldiers armed with knives and axes to protect the half-collapsed city gate and city wall, all with a confused expression.

Chen Pu took the first step, grabbed a soldier rolling on the wall, and asked in a stack, "Where is the enemy?" ”

The soldier also seemed to be a little confused, and pointed to the wilderness outside the city as if he had lost his soul: "Retreat......"

Chen Pu exclaimed, "What?!" "Zhao Jun's defense was negligent and mismanaged, and the enemy touched the east and cut off the back road, when she rushed over, she had already made up her mind to die here today, who would have thought that this elusive enemy would take advantage of it and retreat inexplicably...... Looking in the direction of the soldier's finger, a dozen steps away was a black rumbling and drowsy, where could you still see the shadow of half of the enemy. In a hesitation, Ran Linde had already arrived with someone, and without saying a word, he dragged her to a section of the wall, and shouted: "Beware of the enemy's bow and arrow!" ”

Dozens of soldiers were reminded by him, and then they hurriedly found a place to hide, and a question came from not far away: "Is Chenglile Chen Zhuguo?" ”

Listening to the accent, this is a Yanshan person, but there is a bit of specious Shangjing Plain Mansion accent in the voice, Chen Pu and Ran Linde are looking at each other, so they listen to the voice again and continue: "...... I'm a blind businessman. ”
