Chapter 13: Chasing Hard

When Mao Wenlong learned that a large number of Tartars were coming, he did not dare to have any delay, and immediately ordered to go to Shanhaiguan.

You can't go fast at night, and although the night is bright, the visibility may be very low, and the line of sight is almost completely unclear from ten meters away. Under such a premise, there is no way to get on the road quickly.

The torches could not be lit, and anything that might reveal their whereabouts was not allowed to be used, so the helpless Mao Wenlong had to slow down and let everyone hurry together as much as possible.

And behind Mao Wenlong and the others, about three miles away, under the hillside, a large group of Tartars was staying here. A tall and mighty man in a leather coat rode a horse in front, and beside him were two lieutenants who were nearly half a hundred years old.

The three of them talked while riding horses, and under the light of the torches, it could be seen that the man in the middle had a square face, and his eyes like copper bells could be seen to be steaming.

This person is the leader of the Wanyan tribe, the largest tribe of the Jurchens, Wanyan Wolf! After learning that eleven of his clansmen had died under the sword of the Ming people, he immediately gathered two thousand warriors and chased after them day and night.

Wanyan Ah Wolf was about to kill the murderer of the clan, and at this moment, a spy came to report, saying that he had found signs of activity at the foot of Liangshan not far ahead.

Hearing this news, Wanyan Ah Wolf suddenly became excited, and immediately ordered the whole army to press up. But the two lieutenants beside him persuaded at this time: "Don't venture in, Liangshan is already an area where the Ming Dynasty frequently moves." If this time a trick lures us to come and rush over, once there is an ambush ....... ”

Wanyan Agu suddenly woke up, and then listened to the words of the two lieutenant generals, and sent someone to investigate the truth again.

After the spies came to report that there was no ambush, they continued on their way. Such a delay of coming and going gave Mao Wenlong and the others a lot of time, and also allowed them to successfully escape from the pursuit of the Tartars.

Wanyan Agu led the army to search at the foot of Liangshan, and soon found the place where Mao Wenlong and others had stayed before. By the time they found out the whereabouts of Mao Wenlong and the others, the sky had already brightened.

When Yan Agu learned that Mao Wenlong and the others were going to Shanhaiguan, he was no longer cautious. Instead, he ordered the whole army to chase at full speed, and the sky was already bright, even if there was an ambush on the way to the Ming officers and soldiers.

With the two thousand warriors of the Wanyan tribe, he will definitely not be afraid. At this time, the two lieutenants did not say anything more.

Mao Wenlong finally arrived at Shanhaiguan without danger, and the majestic Shanhaiguan stood in front of him. But Mao Wenlong and others found that the city gate was closed, and there were no soldiers guarding the city tower.

After discussing with Chen Jisheng, Mao Wenlong asked Chen Jisheng to communicate with the officers and soldiers to see if they could be allowed to enter the customs.

Although Chen Jisheng felt that the chance of success was very small, he still went with the mentality of giving it a try.

The location of Mao Wenlong and the others at the moment was less than three miles away from Shanhaiguan, and the officers and soldiers standing guard on the city tower had actually noticed it when they appeared.

It's just that seeing that it is not a Tartar, the officers and soldiers on the city tower are still lax and don't bother to pay attention.

Chen Jisheng rode alone to the city tower, raised his voice and shouted to the officers and soldiers on the city tower: "Master Jun, we are merchants, I don't know if we can enter the customs?" ”

An officer and soldier who seemed to be the leader stretched out his head and glanced at Chen Jisheng below, and said boringly: "Go, go, don't bother Lao Tzu, if you want to enter the customs until the afternoon, as soon as the door is opened, you can naturally enter." ”

I heard that the door would not be opened until it closed in the afternoon, so Chen Jisheng naturally couldn't wait. At border gates like this, there are actually some private transactions, and when Chen Jisheng was in Dongjiang Town, he sometimes made extra money, and he did this kind of thing.

"Hehe, military master, you see that we are in a hurry to go home, our master said, as long as we can enter the customs now, we can talk about how much money we can have." For such officers and soldiers should come directly, Chen Jisheng is obviously very sophisticated about this.

Seeing that Chen Jisheng was so knowledgeable, the military master on the city tower immediately laughed. immediately greeted the other people who stayed behind, and opened the city gate a crack, and he didn't even need to review Chen Jisheng's identity first.

In fact, this is not the carelessness of the military master on the city tower, asking for money and not dying, they don't have the courage to do so. Being able to release without verifying his identity is obviously an experienced military master.

At this juncture, only those who understand the catty will open their mouths like this, since the person who understands the catty is naturally his own person.

Chen Jisheng obviously didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and under great joy, he immediately turned around to greet Mao Wenlong and the others.

Mao Wenlong didn't know how Chen Jisheng persuaded the guards to let him go, but as long as he could enter the customs in front of him, nothing else mattered.

Soon, Mao Wenlong and the others rushed to the pass, the city gate had already been opened, and the nine people rushed in without any hesitation.

As soon as Mao Wenlong entered the city, he saw that there were more than 100 officers and soldiers guarding the entrance of the door, Chen Jisheng and Mao Wenlong glanced at each other, and after obtaining Mao Wenlong's consent, they immediately put on a smiling face and flattered the military master who had just talked to him.

Chen Jisheng just wanted to say a few polite words and praise this military master, but unexpectedly, the horn of the horn suddenly sounded on the city tower. As soon as the military master heard this voice, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he didn't care about talking to Chen Jisheng, and ordered the people around him to take a good look at Chen Jisheng and them, and he rushed back to the city tower.

As soon as the military master went up to the city tower, a guard came to report: "General, a large number of Tartars have been found staying five miles away. ”

"Did you come to us?"

"General Huiyu, no, from the time I found them until now, I haven't seen the Tartars approaching again."

The military master is obviously still a general, and he really can't see it from his appearance as a roe deer. This person is nearly half a hundred years old and has been guarding here for ten years, and he is really an old fritter.

The surname is Han Minghu, he is a local, and he has not had any major accidents in the ten years of guarding the city. has also gone from a small soldier to a general today!

He also had frequent contact with Tartars, and he recognized most of them. Hanhu didn't say a word, he immediately went up to the highest tower, asked for a telescope from his subordinates, and after a little look, he found that it was actually the leader of the Wanyan tribe who personally led the soldiers.

But fortunately, it was not a large army attacking, and there were only about 2,000 people in sight, although I didn't know what the intention was, Hanhu was immediately relieved. As long as Wan Yan didn't come to attack the pass, he didn't bother to care what Wan Yan was here for.

Han Hu casually explained that the people around him continued to star, and he went down the city tower again, at this moment he had begun to wonder if Chen Jisheng and the others below had any connection with the arrival of Wanyan Wolf?

In any case, he felt the need to spy on it just to be on the safe side. The decisive Hanhu couldn't help but take a bigger step under his feet.
