"What's the situation?" Sun Shenzu asked. At this time, the sound of "bang" and "bang" increased, and the sound of horses' hooves became denser.

"Look" a pro-soldier pointed in the direction of Xiaoshanbao and shouted: "Little four, they are being chased"

Sun Shenzu also looked around, and the soldiers he sent out to find the village seemed to be being pursued. They came out of the woods, behind the mountain packs, and then they would fall off their horses after a few noises.

Then, at last, they saw the enemy chasing after them. These enemies are all dressed in shiny chain mail and eight-petaled iron helmets. There are also iron helmets that do not have tassels on the top, but have a half-foot-high fluffy column.

At this time when Sun Shenzu looked around, five of his subordinates were knocked off their horses. He was surprised and said, "Is it the three-eyed gun?" ”

"Chief, let's go." The soldier reminded: "There are a lot of them. ”

Sun Shenzu saw that there were five or six people in each group of enemies who were chasing him, but in fact, it was not much. However, his men were constantly knocked off their horses, and it seemed that there were more enemies.

"Let's go, go back" Sun Shenzu turned the horse's head and said viciously: "Bring the troops over and level all the villages in this area"

He led ten of his own soldiers in the direction of Chenliu, but before they could add up the speed of their horses, they saw more than twenty cavalrymen running out from behind the hill in front of him, dressed in the same way as the soldiers chasing him.

Sun Shenzu is a veteran, without the slightest hesitation, and ordered loudly: "Rush over"

When the soldiers received the order, they all took out their weapons. Some are short spears, some are long knives, some are bones, and some are axes. They kept knocking on the horses, so that the speed of the horses continued to increase. At the same time, he also surpassed Sun Shenzu and protected their lord in the middle.

Feng Taichu, who had already led the team to the main road, ordered: "Be careful, don't fight hard, let them go." Get your handcuffs ready, play two rounds while they pass, and then pursue. ”

"Understood." The subordinates agreed. He stopped on the road and began to quickly prepare his handcuffs. After a while, a dozen or so cavalrymen of the thieves rushed over.

Feng Taichu looked at the thieves who were getting closer and closer, and ordered: "Get out of the way"

The soldiers slammed their horses and walked away, giving way to the thieves.

"Whoa~Whoa~Whoa~", Sun Shenzu's cavalry howled arrogantly, and the weapons in their hands drew circles on the top of their heads, provocatively towards the enemy demonstrators who gave way to the road.

But before they could rejoice for a moment, as they approached twenty paces, they saw the enemies suddenly raise up their hands, and hold a piece of iron pipe in their hands. Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw clouds of white smoke rise, accompanied by a "bang", "bang" sound, and then their companions flew backwards and fell to the ground with screams.

Although Sun Shenzu didn't know what kind of weapon it was, he instinctively leaned on his horse and crossed the way out of the way of the official army.

Feng Taichu saw three or four fish that had slipped through the net rushing over, and ordered: "Catch up"

As soon as they threw away their firearms, they struck their horses and pursued the fleeing thieves. Both sides were constantly whipping their horses, but the distance was always more than thirty paces, and it was difficult to get close.

The place where they were was no more than ten miles away from Chen Liu, and they ran over in a while, and if they couldn't eliminate the thieves in time, they would be in trouble.

Feng Taichu took out his handcuff on his horse, he was thirty paces away from the thief, and on the galloping horse, he had to fire at the thief in front of him from a long distance. With a bang, one of the thieves at the back fell off his horse. He was overjoyed, let go of the handcuff in his hand, picked up the last one, and continued to fire at the thief. As he had just felt, he fired at the thieves in front of him again. But this time it wasn't so lucky, and the thieves in front of him were safe and sound.

His subordinates knew what Feng Taichu meant, and they also kept firing at the thieves in front of them from a distance. After they "bang", "bang", "bang" more than ten shots, finally another thief was knocked off his horse. There was also a horse that seemed to have been hit, and with a neigh, it ran even more wildly, and the thieves above were very alert and did not be thrown off by the crazy warhorse.

Feng Taichu no longer had a handcuff loaded with ammunition at this time, so he could only whip the war horse fiercely, and only by catching up with the thieves in front could the thieves be eliminated. However, the remaining two thieves were also frantically whipping their war horses, wanting to return to Chenliu as soon as possible.

Just when Feng Taichu was in a hurry, three of their companions appeared in front of them, who were sentry spies who had returned from the previous reconnaissance.

The three cavalrymen rushed straight towards Sun Shenzu and them, and twenty paces away from them fired a bolt of fire, and finally knocked the remaining two thieves off their horses.

Feng Taichu and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, slowed down their horses, and slowly leaned up.

"Feng Tou'er," the leading sentry said with a smile on his horse, "This is not good, so many people can't catch up with the two thieves, but General Bai wants to demote you." ”

Feng Taichu was not angry, and arched his hand and said, "Brother Xie Huo helped." I didn't want to fight hard with these thieves, so I let them pass, but I didn't expect their horses to be good, so I couldn't catch up. ”

The sentry detective surnamed Huo said with a smile: "That is also our meritorious service." I don't think these guys are like sentinels, but like big officials. ”

"What's up ahead?" Feng Taichu asked.

The sentry surnamed Huo dismounted, came to Sun Shenzu's corpse, and said while checking it: "There is no situation, the people are demolishing the city wall, and the thieves are eating, drinking and having fun." Hey" He took a simple dragon-patterned jade pendant that he searched from Sun Shenzu's body, and said in surprise: "This thing should be good, take it another day and let Mr. Fan take a look." ”

Feng Taichu and the others disposed of the corpses of the thieves, and then caught up with the fleeing war horses and returned to Qiulou Town. Even the wounded war horse was brought back, even if it was a meal of meat.

Now Qiulou Town is the forward headquarters, and Qian Er is there with 4,000 troops. And Li Zhong was stationed in Gegangzhai with 6,000 troops, and the defense of the county seat of Qixian County was handed over to Feng Cheng sent by Li Yan.

For Qian Er and Li Zhong, this operation is just in the category of intelligence blocking, even if one of the generals among the thieves is killed, it is not a big deal. But for the bandwagon's team, their leader is gone, which is a big deal. So the brothers in the team discussed, and stopped monitoring the people to tear down the city wall, and sent the team out to find their boss.

So from the next day, the team of thieves began to approach in large numbers in the direction of Qixian. Their original task was just to tear down the wall of Chenliu, and then go to join up with the large army and attack Kaifeng City together. But because of the disappearance of Sun Shenzu, Qixian, which should not have been a battlefield, was also involved in the war.
