Chapter 29: Northern Yan First
The Zhenbei army, which was not good at field warfare, finally stopped, and under the command of Zhao Tuo, Liang Qiu sent some spies and rode the horses of Gu Changsheng and Shi Ji to hurry up with other people who diverged the way.
They had their own unique way of getting in touch, and the general direction and route they were going to take were carefully discussed at the time of departure, so communication was not difficult.
As long as one is found, others will be found one after another, and Zhao Tuo chose a place like this, which is a town in Beiyan to the east of Handan, called Tiecheng. The Iron City had no garrison or military significance, and the only reason it was built into a town was its rich iron ore resources.
Zhao Tuo didn't want to grab iron or anything, although the iron mine was important, it was smaller than other towns around Handan, and it was actually not a big deal to send a team of soldiers over. This is Shi Ji's suggestion, although the Northern Yan army is basically gathered in the northwest and east, one is with the guard Bianhu, and the other is staring at the Eastern Qi, but Handan is the capital after all, and it is impossible for any private soldiers of the noble royal family to get close, and once it is discovered, it will be a bad thing.
Although Zhao Tuo felt that the hinterland of Beiyan was empty, he didn't expect that he still had the strength to fight, if he imagined it before, then all the people of Great Wei he brought over would be buried here. The Iron City was different, and the princes and nobles would garrison the Iron City from time to time to change their armor. Originally, there would not be such a phenomenon, but in fact, there were more monks and less porridge, and no one could afford to provoke the county order of Tiecheng, except for the Praetorian Guards who wanted to satisfy it as soon as possible.
There used to be a queue, but since a prince with real power directly pulled his army over and changed the new armament first-hand, this phenomenon began. Of course, before you come, you have to weigh it yourself, and you have to be qualified or not.
I don't know if Zhao Tuo is qualified or not, but he knows that at present, Shi Ji can be used, at most, he will not fall into a trap, it will be the same as his worst plan, and there is no loss if he goes or not.
Coincidentally, the centurion sent back to communicate returned, followed by another man, who sat on horseback like a mountain, and if anyone had good eyes, he could see that he was riding with his eyes closed.
As soon as this tiger-backed general arrived, the atmosphere of the Zhenbei Army suddenly became solemn, and even Gu Changsheng himself stood on his hair and stared at the general in front of him intently.
"Why are you here!" Shi Ji's horse had already been returned, there were more than a thousand Wei troops there, and the black armor guards didn't dare to mess around, they would only do some stealing and touching dogs, but they didn't dare to be discovered.
The man on horseback heard the voice, his eyes opened suddenly, and the momentum came to his face, and he became an army alone! It's definitely a one-man army! What kind of person should be able to have such momentum?
"Humph!" The man turned over and dismounted, snorted coldly at Shi Ji, and walked quickly.
"The general is angry!" The two hundred Yan horses who vaguely surrounded Shi Ji all turned over and dismounted to accept the guilt, Gu Changsheng saw the man walking towards Shi Ji, and pressed his hand on the handle of the black armor guard long knife he picked up, leading but not firing, half of his body blocked Shi Ji, pursing his lips.
The pressure on him from this person is even higher than that of the black armor guard, and even Lin Shuai of the Tiger Ben Army or General Nangong have not experienced it, Gu Changsheng spared his life, but if he didn't have this stone and Ji, he would be a dead end, and he would naturally have to pay it back.
"Don't scare these boys, I'm relieved that you're here." Shi Ji patted Gu Changsheng's shoulder, and then walked around to the front and said to the man.
"Those who don't have long eyes can't even recognize His Highness!" The man was very displeased, His Royal Highness the Third Prince went out of the palace alone, didn't those people know that His Royal Highness's two brothers were ruthless people?
Shi Ji shook his head and said: "Don't worry about Dunhuang, there are some things going wrong along the way, so I am alone, and besides, my escape kung fu was taught by you personally, others don't know, don't you know my skills?" ”
Yi Dunhuang eagerly persuaded: "However, two fists are hard to beat four hands, Your Highness!" ”
Shi Ji smiled bitterly: "Okay, okay, you can do what you say, you can arrange it, I will go to Tiecheng." ”
After Yi Dunhuang responded, he said to the more than 200 cavalrymen: "You have protected me, Your Highness has one less hair, and you don't have to come back!" ”
After that, Yi Dunhuang turned around and left, and then, Gu Changsheng and the three of them had horses to ride. That Yi Dunhuang is an understanding person, he has never asked the identity of Gu Changsheng and the others since he came to leave, and he didn't even look at it, but he was shocked when he left.
He didn't worry at all about whether these people would be bad for His Highness, two legs couldn't outrun four legs, not to mention...
Thundered
From the direction of Yi Dunhuang's departure, there was a thunderous sound, it was the sound of horses' hooves! It's like there are thousands of troops!
Sigh law ~
When the cavalry heard the sound, he saw the leader wave his hand, and the galloping cavalry circled the Zhenbei army for a week, and then stopped behind Shi Ji after slowing down.
Gu Changsheng only felt that it was the first time he had seen this kind of scene, and the scene just now reminded him of the feeling of being chased by the flood and spring flood, and death seemed to be about to choke his neck. Gu Changsheng just wanted to say something to Zhao Tuo, but he, Brother Zhao, was calm and composed, as if he had nothing to do with this thousand horses.
Zhao Tuo felt Gu Changsheng's uneasiness, and said softly: "They are deliberately demonstrating, don't panic." ”
Gu Changsheng swallowed his saliva, but he couldn't help but feel in his heart that he himself would have such a cavalry in the future!
Seeing that Gu Changsheng had calmed down, and there was a glimmer in his eyes, Zhao Tuo suddenly felt that the young man in front of him had transformed. But he didn't think much about it, so he introduced the origin of this cavalry to Gu Changsheng.
"Xiao An, I'm afraid this cavalry is the most elite silver knife slashing iron cavalry under the Bu Dunhuang subordinates just now, and it is also the second most elite cavalry in Northern Yan."
Gu Changsheng asked suspiciously, "Bu Dunhuang?" ”
Zhao Tuo said: "You go back to make up for the heroes of the world, Bu Dunhuang was rated as the first in the North Yan by the world, the second in the world, its men and horses are invincible, but the strategy is inferior, so in the North Yan he called the first no one dared to call the second." The current commander of the Silver Knife Cutting Iron, one of the four major iron cavalry of Northern Yan, has you seen their military flag? ”
Although it was night, the silver military flag was particularly conspicuous, with cloth characters written on it. Gu Changsheng glanced at it and said, "See, cloth?" ”
"This should be Bu Dunhuang's personal soldiers, it seems that our friend Shi Ji of Beiyan is not an ordinary king and grandson, but how come I haven't heard the name of this person."
Gu Changsheng replied: "It's not normal that Brother Zhao didn't listen, we can fake his name, and he naturally doesn't necessarily use his real name." ”
Zhao Tuo nodded and continued: "This cloth Dunhuang has been dealing with Bian Hu all year round, and now he has appeared here. ”
Gu Changsheng said indifferently: "Brother Zhao is in love, my Great Wei is fighting for power and profit, how can he have less Northern Yan, you see the respectful appearance of Nabu Dunhuang to Shi He just now, and now he has sent his own soldiers to arrive, this Shi He should be one of the contenders for the throne of Northern Yan." ”
Zhao Tuo suddenly, in fact, it is not that Zhao Tuo does not understand this, but his mind has never been on this, which is why a prince with military power in hand, extremely high military prestige, and a ravine in his chest was squeezed out of the game of power struggle in the Great Wei Dynasty in just one or two months.
"It depends on what this stone brother wants to play." Zhao Tuo glanced at Shi Ji without leaving a trace, and said to Gu Changsheng, Gu Changsheng nodded, and then looked at the more than 1,000 Zhenbei troops behind him, thinking in his heart.
He is a swordman.
