Seeing that it was Xue Shixiong who came back, Yu Wenwen was quite moved, he felt that he was the first to achieve the 'zero breakthrough' than the Son of Heaven, which was really something worth celebrating, and he couldn't help humming a song from another era:

"I'm riding a white horse, and I'm going through three levels..."

"Change into plain clothes and go back to the Central Plains..."

Yu Wenwen was thinking: You all have the surname Xue anyway, right?

Several cavalrymen who were on guard on the official road saw someone coming, shouting and riding their horses to meet them, Yuwen Wen shouted loudly that it was his own people, and then looked at the north expectantly.

A few days ago, the captured Xue Shixiong would rather die than affect his family, so Yuwenwen came to a 'righteous interpretation of Xue Shixiong' to accumulate a good fate, and now the other party turned the horse's head back, and he pondered that there would be an adventure.

Xue Shixiong's hometown is in Hedong, and it is not possible to go back and forth in just a few days, if you follow the routine that you like to see, it should be like Xu Shu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms who recommended Zhuge Kongming to Uncle Liu Huang, and come back to recommend someone to him.

Or recommend a certain family and let it work for the Son of Heaven.

This is not bad, if there is a wealthy Qin King in the Henan region, it is enough to make the Son of Heaven overjoyed, Yu Wenwen thought of this, walked to the side of the road and turned over his horse, ready to welcome the good news.

Xue Shixiong was getting closer and closer to Yuwen Wen, only to see him shouting something, and the few cavalry who had stepped forward walked halfway, somehow turned their horse's head and ran towards Yuwen Wen.

When the cavalry approached, Yu Wenwen heard them shouting "enemy attack", and couldn't help but be stunned: enemy attack? I have a ranger guard at least thirty miles north of the Hanging Gourd, where did the enemy attack come from?

His mind turned quickly, and then he thought of another possibility, that is, the local powerful forces were attacking, and then he remembered Li Zicheng, the king of the late Ming Dynasty.

When Li Zicheng led more than 20 relatives to check the terrain in Tongcheng, Hubei, he was attacked by the passing landlords, and died in Jiugong Mountain.

He checked the terrain on the bank of Rushui, and by the way, let his entourage pick wood, and also arranged the necessary vigilance forces, so the reaction speed was very fast, and when Xue Shixiong rode his horse to Yuwenwen, there were already more than 20 horsemen ready.

"General Xue, don't come..."

"The king is leaving, the enemy is coming!"

Xue Shixiong recognized Yuwen Wen, and shouted directly without caring so much, Yu Wenwen didn't have time to ask the specific situation, but he saw that the north was dusty, and it seemed that many cavalry were galloping from north to south.

Seeing this, his heart beat violently, because this scene represented a possibility: a sneak attack by cavalry.

Yu Wenwen attacked the Hanging Gourd at night before, relying on light cavalry to gallop day and night, and there were many enemy cavalry, if this tactic was adopted, it was not surprising that he had clearly arranged a ranger guard in the north, how could he not even have any news in advance?

Seeing that Yuwen Wen hadn't come back to his senses yet, Xue Shixiong was so anxious that he shouted: "The king's rangers were earned by them!" If you don't go back to the city, it's all over! ”

Yu Wenwen only felt that his head was buzzing, in order to collect firewood as much as possible, he had sent many soldiers to pick wood outside the city, of course, in order to prevent someone from sneaking up, he deliberately scattered cavalry to guard around, in order to give early warning in time, so that the soldiers could have enough time to return to the city.

Now that the incident happened suddenly, where is the time to let everyone withdraw to the city!

Yuwen Wen thought so, looking at the dust in the north, and looking at the outline of the Hanging Gourd City in the south, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: it would not be good for the enemy army to chase him and rush into the Hanging Gourd City together!

。。。。。

In the sound of horses' hooves, nearly a thousand cavalry galloped south, because it was one person and two horses, so it was the momentum of two thousand cavalry only from the scale.

A few days ago, the Yuzhou army that returned to the division was defeated under the city, and the governor of Yuzhou, He Ba Fuen, was defeated and killed.

As soon as the news of the loss of the Hanging Gourd reached Yecheng, this army was ordered by the Prime Minister Chi Dan to set off from Yecheng to the south, originally to support Heba Fuen as a reinforcement, and the enemy army that attacked the Hanging Gourd was very likely to break through the Dabie Mountain into the Henan boundary, so after recovering the Hanging Gourd, they had to continue to go south and go to Guangcheng.

As a result, Hebavoun was defeated, and it was shocking that he was defeated so badly, and at the same time, the act of someone pretending to be the Son of Heaven and calling for King Qin in the hanging gourd also made people restless.

The so-called soldiers are fast, and Liu Ziang, the assassin of Yingzhou who was restrained by the commander of the reinforcement army, was ordered to lead the cavalry to sneak attack the hanging gourd, and the other party would never have imagined that the imperial court would organize a crusade army so quickly, and it was just the right time to repay the other in the way of others.

Liu Ziang has been on the battlefield for a long time, was originally a general of Qi State, after the Zhou Dynasty, he was the governor of Xiangzhou and the commander of Chi Hui, the public lieutenant of Shu State, and he stood on the side of Wei Chi since the second year of the elephant, and now he is a general.

He is good at cavalry combat, so it is not difficult for Liu Ziang to run long distances, and the configuration of one person and two horses is enough for him to catch the enemy off guard.

There are 1,000 cavalry under his command, 300 are elite, and the rest are ordinary soldiers, but it is enough to turn the world upside down, the impostor who is crowned by the monkey, and the so-called 'one-legged bronze man' Yu Wenwen, he wants to be captured alive and escorted to Yecheng!

"Envoy! There are dozens of horses ahead! ”

Liu Ziang heard the shouts of his generals, looked up and saw dozens of horsemen half a mile ahead, originally walking south, and then turned to his own side and rushed, thinking that the enemy rangers found that the situation was wrong, and sent people back to report the news, and the rest of the people tried to intercept and buy time.

Not long ago, Liu Ziang sent a forward to pretend to be a merchant and successfully eradicate an enemy ranger, without missing a single person.

But it was too late, Liu Ziang looked at the distance, even if he was delayed by these people for some time, he could rush into the hanging gourd before the city gate was closed.

Even if they can't rush in, they can force the hanging gourd to close their doors, so the enemy soldiers stranded outside the city will not be able to gather and become their prey, and as long as their own cavalry wanders outside the city for a few days, when the main force arrives, the capture of the hanging gourd is just around the corner.

Thinking of this, Liu Ziang couldn't help but despise the legendary 'one-legged bronze man' Yuwen Wen, who was said to be the most capable of fighting in the Yuwen family, but he took it lightly as soon as he won the battle, thinking that he could sit back and relax by sending some cavalry to guard on the periphery, which was simply unbelievable.

"Attention, line up, break through them, and divide your troops into the city in a moment!"

"There is a moat outside the Hanging Fortress, you have to rush in before the drawbridge rises, and then control the drawbridge!"

Orders were heard one after another, and a thousand cavalry galloped horizontally in the wilderness, rushing towards the hanging gourd not far away, and the hanging gourd at this time had not even made any reaction.

Just when Liu Ziang was full of confidence and was about to break through the dozens of cavalry and wave his army into the city to kill, he saw that dozens of steps ahead, his own outpost cavalry suddenly brushed their horses and lost their front hooves, his heart sank, and then a cold sweat broke out.

Someone shouted at a loud voice, hoarse: "Trip! There's a tripwire ahead! ”
