Chen Jisheng was ready to give the order to fight, but at this time he heard a familiar shout coming from a distance. Surprised, he hurriedly looked around, and finally saw Liu Guangzuo and Chengzuo rushing towards him at the riverside.

And there was a large group of cavalry behind them, obviously Liu Guangzuo and Chengzuo came with reinforcements.

"Hahaha......."

Chen Jisheng laughed even hahaha.

Although he knew that there were not many reinforcements, Chen Jisheng no longer felt hopeless!

"Brethren! Our reinforcements are coming, and they will follow Lao Tzu to kill them. Chen Jisheng roared arrogantly, and then fought hard to kill the enemy.

The morale of the Dongjiang Army, which was somewhat low, immediately rose again. Although there was a big gap in the strength of the reinforcements from the two sides, the Dongjiang Army was full of care, and under the leadership of Chen Jisheng, it launched a counteroffensive against the officers and soldiers.

And at this moment, Hong Chengchou, who was supervising the army on the periphery, also saw Chen Jisheng and their reinforcements coming, and his face changed greatly.

Originally, Chen Jisheng's more than 400 people made him feel anxious, but now it's okay, and hundreds more are coming. Hong Chengchou had a premonition at this moment that these grain thieves would eventually be fled.

The fact is really as Hong Chengchou thought, as soon as the reinforcements of the Dongjiang Army came, the morale of the officers and men immediately dropped. The gap between one drop and one rise was so great that after a small commotion, the officers and men were finally unable to stop the Dongjiang Army from breaking through.

As soon as Liu Guangzuo and Cheng Zuo arrived, the saber flew and directly rushed into the camp of the officers and soldiers, and soon joined forces with Chen Jisheng and others.

Chen Jisheng saw that the two of them only cared about killing the enemy and didn't flee as soon as possible, so he said coldly with a gloomy face: "Go quickly, I don't want to kill everyone here, let Lao Tzu escape." ”

was drunk like this by Chen Jisheng, and finally brought the two guys who killed happily back to their senses. Immediately did not dare to ink again, Yo drank his subordinates to form a formation again, rushed out of the encirclement of officers and soldiers together, and then rushed away along the road where Liu Guangzuo and Chengzuo came.

Seeing that the Dongjiang Army did not fight but fled, the officers and men were stunned that none of them pursued them. And Hong Chengchou also pretended to be deaf and dumb, and slowly commanded the scattered cavalry to reassemble.

It wasn't until Yan He's army arrived that he pretended to chase after the cavalry. But where is the shadow of the Dongjiang Army, they have long been fleeing in the direction of the river upstream?

Yang He's face was gloomy, and his eyes burned with rage. Judging from the number of cavalry battalions reassembled by Hong Chengchou, there are only about 2,000 people left.

In other words, in this pursuit, the cavalry battalion led by Hong Chengchou lost more than 1,000 horses. And Yang He had already received the news that the cavalry battalion was chasing less than 500 grain thieves.

It was three times the strength of the opponent, but there were so many dead and wounded, and in the end the opponent could not be left. At this moment, the anger in Yanghe's heart can be imagined!

"Hong Chengchou!"

"The last general!"

"This governor will allocate another 5,000 men and horses for you, if you still lose this time, you can't capture that gang of grain thieves, be careful that your head is not guaranteed!"

Yang He was furious, and his chest rose and fell as he spoke, obviously trying his best to suppress his anger. If it weren't for the fact that he didn't have any generals available now, it was really possible to directly cut off Hong Chengchou's head.

For Yang He's order, Hong Chengchou secretly complained in his heart, this governor obviously had never been in contact with those grain thieves, and he didn't know what was wrong with it.

Not to mention giving himself another 5,000 horses, even 10,000 horses, Hong Chengchou is not sure to leave those people. But this is obviously not the time to talk to Yang He about this.

Hong Chengchou understood that Yang He was angry, and now it was useless for him to say anything, so it was better to follow his arrangement first and lead someone to chase him down.

After Hong Chengchou clenched his fists and received the order, he soon led the troops to set off. Of the 5,000 men, there were only 2,000 cavalry, and the rest were infantry. In order not to lose the Dongjiang army, Hong Chengchou had to send spies to follow the traces of the Dongjiang army in front of him, and the army could only advance slowly behind.

At this moment, it was close to dusk, and after sunset, Hong Chengchou guessed that the fleeing Dongjiang army would definitely stop and rest. This whole day of running, even if people can support it, the horse can't support it.

And Hong Chengchou already has other plans in his heart, he is not ready to have any more conflicts with the Dongjiang Army, the most important thing now is to track them and then dig out their true identities.

As long as he knows who they are and where they come from, Hong Chengchou can be regarded as having an explanation for Yanghe. As for how to decide the rest of the matter, it is all up to Yang He to make an idea.

Yang He obviously didn't know what Hong Chengchou was planning at the moment, and after seeing him leave, he looked up at the sky and saw that it was already dusk. This place is not far from Tongguan, and after a little hesitation, he led his troops to Tongguan.

After Chen Jisheng took the brothers of the Dongjiang Army to get rid of the officers and soldiers, he did not stop, but ran until midnight before stopping to rest in a deserted countryside.

In order not to be discovered in the dark night, Chen Jisheng ordered that no fire should be lit, and he could only eat some dry food that he brought with him for dinner, and the water could only be unboiled stream.

Liu Guangzuo and Cheng Zuo sat around Chen Jisheng, and there was a hand-drawn map in front of the three of them. Chen Jisheng carefully looked at the map for a while with a fire fold in his hand, pointed to a plain a few miles away from Tongguan City, and said, "Are we here now?" ”

Cheng Zuo glanced at it a little and nodded affirmatively: "Yes, as long as we continue to walk along the river, we will be able to reach the meeting place agreed with the governor in one more day." ”

Liu Guangzuo saw that Chen Jisheng was still frowning, and seemed to be still very worried, so he immediately grinned and said, "Big brother, now that we are safe, there is nothing to worry about!" The grain has also arrived safely at the governor, and it may have been transported back to Yexian by now. ”

"Bullshit!"

Chen Jisheng's eyes widened, and he snorted coldly.

Liu Guangzuo was taken aback, his face was full of confusion, he really didn't know what he had done wrong, and he needed to be treated like this by Chen Jisheng?

"Big brother......." Liu Guangzuo didn't give up and wanted to ask for an understanding.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was stopped by Chen Jisheng: "Now we are not afraid of the pursuit of officers and soldiers, but we must not reveal our identity, otherwise this grain robbery will be a failure, and there will be endless troubles in the future." ”

"Big brother is worried that the officers and soldiers will hang behind us and follow us?" Cheng Zuo obviously has a good understanding, and when he heard Chen Jisheng twitch slightly, he immediately guessed it.

Chen Jisheng nodded appreciatively: "Yes, so we can't go back the same way we were, we have to take a detour and go elsewhere." It wasn't until we were sure that we had dumped the officers and soldiers that we could safely return to Yexian. ”

Cheng Zuo frowned at this time: "But the officers and soldiers are hanging behind us, how can the army walk without leaving any traces?" ”
