Gu Bi's meaning is obvious, that is, to let Mulan have a defense, if the Rouran army really appears behind Nantian Castle, she is also prepared to deal with it, so as not to be caught off guard.

And not allowing Mulan to retreat without permission is also for the sake of the safety of the Jinling camp and a large number of surrounding territories, with Hua Mulan guarding Nantian Fort, she can block the tens of thousands of Rouran troops outside the fort.

Gu Bi and Tuoba Jian and others have already received the news that the Rouran army that broke through the Da'e Mountain Fort is only about 5,000 people, and with the current strength of the Jinling Battalion, the chance of victory is half, so there is no need to be afraid, but if Mulan withdraws from Nantian Fort, the tens of thousands of Rouran troops outside the fort will drive straight into the Jinling Battalion, and when the two Rouran armies converge, the army of the Jinling Battalion will not be able to stop it no matter what.

Next, the perimeter of the Jinling camp was strengthened, and the soldiers and horses of the Right Guard were also ordered not to take off their armor and horses, in order to prevent the Rouran army from suddenly appearing on the periphery of the Jinling camp, the Right Guard Army should be able to fight at any time.

In the market security team outside the camp, the houses are lit up.

Hou Yu took the pen and handed the written note to Cao Jiao.

Cao Jiao took the note and looked at it, and nodded: "Well, it's well written, that's what it means!" ”

After speaking, Cao Jiao took the note and blew it, after drying the ink, he rolled it up and tied it with a string, and beckoned to a soldier next to him: "Go, put it in its place!" ”

"Yes, Captain!"

The pawn took the paper roll and quickly came to the door of the land temple in the bazaar, he looked left and right, walked to the stone lion on the left and squatted down, stretched out his hand and pulled out a piece of his head, stuffed the paper roll into it, and then put his head back in place, got up and clapped his hands, and walked away quickly.

Soon the pawn came to the fence outside the camp of the Right Guard, made a × with his knife, put it away and left quickly.

After a while, a general came out of the camp gate with the hilt of his sword in hand, and he walked along the edge of the barracks to get something to eat at the tavern in the bazaar.

The X symbol on the wooden fence came into his sight, and he just glanced at it and continued on his way.

It didn't take long for the general to come to the land temple and walk to the stone lion on the left to stop and observe the surroundings, and when he saw that there was no one around, he immediately squatted down and turned his head, reached in and took out the paper scroll, and quickly stuffed his head back, and got up and left as if nothing happened.

After returning to the camp, the general sat down under the oil lamp and opened the scroll of paper, the contents of which were quickly revealed, and after reading it, he put the note on the oil lamp and burned it, got up, grabbed a piece of black cloth on the table, stuffed it into his arms, and walked out of the tent.

After only a few moments, the general appeared in front of the stable door with a bucket of oil, and just as a groom had just come out after feeding the war horses beans and forage, he saw the general and asked: "General, why did you come to the stable so late?" Rest assured, the villain has already fed your horse! Hey, what's on your shoulders? ”

The general didn't say a word, and suddenly drew his knife, and the cold light flashed, and the groom fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.

He crouched down with his knife and dragged it into the stable, grabbing one of the corpse's feet with one hand.

It didn't take long for the smell of fire oil to come from the stables, and the general quickly poured the oil out.

The thousands of horses in the stables seemed to sense danger and began to struggle and neigh.

The general ignored it completely, went to the door of the stable, dropped the empty barrel of oil, and then took out the flint and steel and lit a torch, which he threw into a pile of hay in the stable.

With a "boom", the fodder was ignited, and the fire followed the oil and fodder on the ground and looked at other places quickly.

The horses in the stables neighed and struggled, kicking their hooves and shaking their heads in an attempt to break the reins.

The fire was getting bigger and bigger, some of the horses had already been burned, and the cattle were desperate to threaten their lives, they struggled with all their might, broke the horses' chews, and then spread their hooves and rushed out.

There were also many horses that struggled so hard that they pulled down the wooden pillars that supported the stables, and the stables fell down in pieces.

When the general saw this scene, he immediately turned around and left quickly, disappearing between the various tents in the blink of an eye.

The collapse of the stables freed all the horses, and they were so frightened that they rushed out of the camp like crazy, and no one could restrain them.

In an instant, the whole camp was alarmed, the soldiers ran out of the camp tent, many people were trampled to death and injured by the rushing frightened horses, at this time someone just walked in from outside the camp, the camp gate was still open, the frightened horses saw the opportunity to rush out and immediately rushed to the barracks.

When the guards at the gate saw this frightened shout, they remembered to close the camp gate, and the frightened horses rushed out of the camp in one go.

The camp was left with only burning stables and wounded soldiers, and the tents were knocked down countless times.

Yongchang Wang Tuoba Jian got up from the ground with an embarrassed face and spit out the dirt in his mouth, looked at the stunned soldiers and shouted: "What are you still doing? Go out to this king, and get the horses back, go quickly! ”

Only then did the generals react, "Yes, yes!" ”

Tuoba ran to the burning stables and jumped violently: "Why is the stable on fire?" What the hell is going on? ”

At this time, the prison army Gu Bi ran over from the marshal out of breath, and when he saw this scene, he was about to collapse, and it made matters worse!

Tuoba Jian yelled at a group of silent generals: "Check! Check it out for Ben Shuai, and you must find out the reason! ”

Gu Bi looked at the raging fire, sighed and said to Tuoba Jian: "Lord Wang, the top priority is not to find out the cause, but to do our best to find the scattered war horses, the entire Jinling camp has no extra spare war horses, if you can't find these war horses, once the Rouran army attacks, how can we wait?" There's no way to fight back! ”

Liu Jizong, the general, also stood up and said: "Yes, Lord Wang, I don't think this is by any means an accidental fire, but someone deliberately set it on fire, I'm afraid that someone sneaked into our camp and set such a fire, this person must be the meticulous work of Rouran!" But as the prison army said, now is not the time to investigate and do it, but to take back the war horse! ”

Tuoba Jian's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water, and he resisted the urge to cut people, "A large number of soldiers have been sent out to find it!" ”

The fire in the stables at the camp of the Right Guards attracted the attention of the entire Jinling camp. At this moment, a tall and thin soldier in armor appeared next to the tent where the marshal Yasuhara was being held in the marshal's camp.

The two guards guarding the door stretched their necks on tiptoe and looked in the direction of the right guard camp, and the tall and thin soldiers suddenly flashed out and swung two swords in succession, and the two guards fell to the ground with their necks clutched.

The tall and thin soldier lifted the curtain and walked into the tent, and then dragged the two corpses in, Yasuhara, who was locked in a cage in the tent, opened his eyes, and his eyes widened when he saw the person coming, "You······ Are you ······ Ben Shuai remembered, you are ······ Wait, what do you want to do? ”

"I want to ask the handsome man to go out and blow the wind!" The tall and thin soldier stabbed him with his sword.

Yasuhara was startled, and immediately turned his head to dodge, and the sword grazed Yasuhara's ear and stabbed it, but the thin and tall soldier immediately shook his wrist, and the sword slapped on Yasuhara's ear.

Yasuhara was restricted from movement by the cage and chain shackles, and he couldn't dodge at all, and was slapped by a sharp sword, only to feel a buzz in his head, and fainted instantly.

The tall and thin soldier cut the chains on the cage with a sword, pulled the unconscious Yasuhara out and carried it on his shoulder, turned around and walked out of the tent, and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.

Everyone was busy looking for horses, and no one noticed that there was a problem with the camp where Yasuhara was being held.

At dawn, the soldiers of the Right Guard, who had been looking for most of the night, could not find even a single horse, and they did not know where the frightened horses had gone.

In the tent, Gu Bi looked at Tuoba Jian with a pale face: "Lord Wang, what should I do?" How can we deal with the Rouran without horses? ”

Tuoba Jian was quite irritable and furious: "You ask this king? Who is going to go? ”

There was a hurried sound of horses' hooves outside the tent, and a knight ran in panting and reported: "Lord Wang, the prison army, the Rouran army is here, coming from the direction of Tunqi Mountain, it is less than ten miles away from here, their speed is very fast, and they can arrive in an instant!" ”

Gu Bi was stunned by this news, his body kept shaking, and he almost fell, but fortunately he was supported by the soldiers next to him.

Tuoba Jian calmed down at this time, and he immediately made a decision: "There is no other way, I ordered everyone to immediately withdraw to Jinling Mountain to defend it, and the top priority is to guard the mausoleum from the destruction of the Rouran people!" ”

After Tuoba Jian said this, Gu Bi also came back to his senses, "Yes, yes, yes, quickly send an order to the fifth princess, let her immediately take the men and horses to carry all the baggage in the camp up the mountain, and dare to move as much as she can before the Rouran army arrives!" ”

"Yes, Overseer!"

Tuoba Jian immediately ordered the Right Guard Army to assemble urgently, and together with the wounded soldiers, a total of more than 5,000 people, withdrew to Jinling Mountain.

When he arrived on the mountain, Zhizhong shouted: "Prison army, why don't you see An Dashuai?" ”

Gu Bi couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "You didn't send someone to escort him up the mountain?" ”

"If the prison army has not given an order, how dare the subordinates make decisions without permission? The subordinates came with the prison army, and they didn't return to the marshal at all, but just sent people back and ordered them to withdraw to the mountains! ”

Gu Bi immediately sent people to search all over the mountain, and asked the officers and soldiers of the marshal if they had seen An Yuan, but they couldn't find it after a long search.

At this time, Gu Bi realized that he had a lot of fun, and he actually forgot An Yuan in the camp, and he immediately yelled at Zhizhong: "What are you still doing? Send someone to the camp to pick up An Dashuai! ”

"Yes Yes Yes ······"

As soon as a few soldiers looking for An Yuan entered the camp, a large number of horses' hooves were heard in the northwest direction, countless flags were fluttering, and a large amount of smoke and dust rose in the sky, and the momentum was extremely huge, and it soon approached the outside of the Jinling camp.

A group of Rouran cavalry galloped around the Jinling camp to inquire about the situation, and soon a small group of Rouran cavalry entered the camp to investigate.

Seeing that the soldiers looking for An Yuan entered the camp, the Rouran cavalry surrounded the Jinling camp, Gu Bi's face became extremely pale, thinking that this was over, An Yuan was only afraid that he would become a prisoner of the Rouran people.
