Chapter 145 • Killing Intent

Just when Yan Wuji and the others were enjoying this temporary happy sleep, a group of cavalry quietly slipped out of Liangcheng, and when they looked at it, there were roughly ten people, and they didn't know what the three watchmen were doing when they went out of the city in the middle of the night.

"General, what is the matter with gathering the brothers so late, where are we going so late?" A voice sounded in the night, very soft, only slightly drowned out the sound of the accompanying horses' hooves.

"Nonsense, do you think that General Ben's scouts in Shema Town ate dry rice in the first place? General Ben can tell you that at the beginning, our scout team had the ability to fight alone in the independent battalion, and it was definitely the first existence. Saying that, this person took out the dagger he was carrying, held the cold light in his hand, picked and stabbed, and played with two hands gorgeously, and saw that several people around him were impressed.

Yan Zhu enjoyed the admiration of others very much, smiled, turned the dagger in the palm of his hand a few times, and then put it back into the scabbard with a "sigh".

"I tell you, don't look at this dagger as short, but in terms of lethality, it is not inferior to a broadsword and spear, and even in my opinion, it is still overwhelming, and the Humeng barbarian can be strong? Can the scimitar be sharp in the hand? If you don't fall under the dagger in my hand, the attack of the dagger is fast! Vicious! Permit! Move quickly, make ruthless moves, accurately hit the key points of the target, and make sure to kill with one blow, and do not give the opponent a chance to counterattack. ”

The more Yan Zhu spoke, the more energetic he became, and even his tone became louder and louder, and he even said that he once killed Hu Meng's scout team alone during an espionage mission, without even blinking an eye.

What's even more terrifying is that these cows that he blew into the sky, and a group of junior brothers around him actually nodded their heads in unison, without the slightest doubt about the authenticity of Shangguan's words.

Yan Zhu proudly maintained the pride of looking up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and he was greatly satisfied in his heart, and then he remembered the right thing he came out to do this time, and in an instant, his high head hung down, like a frosted eggplant, and he didn't lose the roundness of Fang Cai at all, and secretly said that he was unlucky, why did he bring up this topic of Raushzi, and finally put himself into the pit.

Originally, he was going to go to Yihong Mansion to make an appointment in the evening, but when he went out, the housekeeper of his uncle Yan Zhiyun's mansion suddenly appeared in front of him and asked him to go to the mansion for a banquet, after all, he was his own uncle, and he now relied on Yan Zhiyun for this errand, and he had no reason to refuse in public or private, so Yan Zhu, who was regretful in his heart, had to send a small servant beside him to Yihong Mansion with his folding fan, and he went to Yan Zhiyun with the housekeeper of the Governor's Mansion.

After coming, Yan Chai knew that it was originally to entertain Ge Cheng'a and let him accompany him, the purpose of course was to make him familiar in front of Ge Cheng'a and create a chance for him to be promoted.

After three rounds of drinking, perhaps because the wine is getting stronger, the topic of conversation at the banquet has become no longer as secretive as before, and I don't know who suddenly said: "Hu Meng is now storming Xiema, I don't know how the battle is going, but the reinforcements are delayed, which is really anxious." ”

Yan Zhu immediately slapped his head, "What else, Xiema was broken a few days ago." ”

As soon as these words came out, he realized that something was wrong, and while secretly saying a bad thing, he couldn't wait to give himself two mouths, and everyone at the banquet looked at him in surprise and inexplicably, including his uncles Yan Zhiyun and Ge Cheng'a, after all, the fall of Xiema Town is not a trivial matter, it is related to the comfort of the entire Dingzhou and even the entire Yan Kingdom, and it is impossible to talk nonsense.

"Zhu'er, this matter is not trivial, don't talk about it, retreat quickly!" Yan Zhiyun was the first to react, and hurriedly helped Yan Chai to play the round, but unfortunately the situation was so good, it was not so easy to accept it, Yan Zhiyun's voice just fell, but Ge Cheng'a, who was sitting at the same table on the side, refused to give up, out of the intuition of a soldier, he felt that Yan Chai was not talking about it.

"Slow, Yan chased you just said that Xiema Town has been captured, but there is evidence, where is the source of the news, come quickly, otherwise the military law is ruthless, and the crime of lying about the military situation is not light."

"This ......" Yan Zhu, who had been drunk for a while, turned his eyes on his uncle for help, Yan Zhiyun of course knew that Ge Cheng'a was not just scaring him, and besides, in addition to the three of them, there were more than ten people present at this time, who were all well-known figures in Liangcheng, in this case, even if he wanted to quarrel with Ge Cheng'a, he would never be able to take advantage of it.

So Yan Zhiyun coughed lightly, relieving the slightly embarrassing atmosphere here, "Marshal Ge doesn't have to be so serious, this is the Governor's Mansion, not the barracks, so you don't need to be so serious, you don't need to be so serious, hahahaha." ”

Hearing this, Ge Cheng'a softened the look on his face a little, and nodded apologetically to Yan Zhiyun, in this Liangcheng, anyone can not give face, but Yan Zhiyun's face, he Ge Cheng'a has to give, after all, if the two fall out, the camp in Liangcheng will appear very passive, and it will become inconvenient in many aspects, which is why although he hates this Yan Dudu who can only slap horses from the bottom of his heart, he does not refuse the other party's invitation.

But although it was relieved, it was just that the tight skin was loosened, but the sharp eyes did not improve at all, which made Yan Zhiyun frown, and said in his heart: "Sure enough, he is a reckless man who can only pick up a knife and slash!" ”

Although he despised this Ge Cheng'a in his heart, Yan Zhiyun still had to do the kung fu on the surface, and said to Yan Zhu with a smile: "Zhu'er, you haven't come to the things that Marshal Ge asked, if you are honest and lie about the military situation, without waiting for Marshal Ge's order, I, who will be an uncle, will first refer to you to the court." ”

Ge Cheng'a frowned, how could he not understand the little bit of calf protection in Yan Zhiyun's heart, although this was serious, but in fact, he put the identity of Yan Zhiyun's royal family in front of the lieutenant of the trapped camp, if he wanted to punish him, he had to first obtain the consent of the imperial court, to put it bluntly, it was the consent of His Majesty the Emperor, how could it be his turn to be Ge Cheng'a.

Yan Yiyi said Ai Ai, and then he explained everything in the evening, but he hid Yan Wuji's name, and added at the end, "The last general didn't think so much at the time, he just thought that these people were Hu Meng's meticulous work, or that the mountain bandits wanted to enter the city as thieves, and used these rhetoric to deceive me, so he didn't open the door, and asked the military commander Mingjian." ”

Yan Zhiyun also took the opportunity to say at this time: "Chase the child."

Even if it is a loyal duty, there is nothing wrong with it, Ge Junshuai, do you think? ”

After waiting for a long time, Ge Cheng'a didn't answer, Yan Zhiyun wanted to crook his nose, flick his sleeves, and throw down a sentence, "What the hell are you angry in front of Lao Tzu, Yan Zhu just washed his neck and stretched it there, you dare to cut it and try it!" ”

But after glancing at Yan Zhu, who looked trembling below, he had to swallow the breath in his heart, "Yan Zhu, as the saying goes, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped, this matter starts with you, and you have to clean it up, are you willing to wear the guilt and make meritorious contributions?" ”

Yan Chai hurriedly knelt down and bowed down, "The last general is willing, so I'll go and find those people back." ”

At this time, Ge Cheng'a spoke: "It's not for you to find them back, but for you to find out what the current situation is in Shema Town, whether it has been captured or not, understand?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! The end will understand, the end will understand. After speaking, Yan Chai didn't wait for the banquet to end, so he hurriedly confessed his guilt and ran out, which led to the scene of Fang Cai.

Yan Zhu led the ten elites who were personally selected, and galloped all the way to the north, compared to facing Yan Wuji, to whisper and plead, to let the other party know that the person who was on the city tower and turned them away was him, he was more inclined to personally lead the team to the north to explore the truth, after all, with the foot power of the cavalry, Liangcheng to Xiema Town, it was only a matter of one day and one night.

They set out from the evening and ran north for an unknown amount of time, until the sunlight cast from the east drove away the coolness of the night, and they stopped, and it was not that they were willing to stop, but that there was a neat row of cavalry lined up in front of them on the opposite side, and gradually pushed the speed of the horses to the highest, the scouts of the Humeng people!

Yan Chai gasped, although the air is indeed very cold now, but compared to his current mood, it is still much warmer, counted, sixteen people, five more than them, these people He doesn't know how effective they are, but what he knows is that these ten guys under his command are all sycophants who follow behind his ass, when it comes to eating, drinking, having fun, and patting sycophants, they are definitely good hands, but if they play with their lives, they are definitely not the opponents of those Humeng scouts on the other side.

"Run, run!" Yan Zhu immediately reined in his horse and turned around, smacking the butt of the war horse under him, the war horse was in pain, and he didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, he ran away, but at this time, it was too late, regardless of the fact that Yan Guo's war horse itself was not as good as Humeng's war horse, the distance between the two sides was a hundred feet away, and the speed of the other party had been completely raised, how could Yan Zhu and the others have a chance to escape.

"Oh Luo Luo Luo......" The horn of the Humeng people sounded again from the galloping crowd, like a supernatural Buddha sound sounded for these Yan soldiers, and with the sound of the wind, it became closer and closer to the ears of these Yan soldiers who were fleeing for their lives.

"Poof!" The sound of the blade slashing into the flesh sounded, and a Yan soldier fell off his horse in response, and then under the trampling of the horses behind, he twitched slightly, and then stopped moving, and the flowing blood under his body flowed on the sand, and then slowly sucked into the soil, dyeing the piece scarlet.

Yan Chai didn't know which unlucky guy it was, he couldn't now, and he didn't dare to look back, he only felt that there was a bright knife on his neck, as long as he turned around, or if his speed was slow, he would be killed immediately.
