A galloping road is built straight along the water, to a dense forest in front of ten zhang suddenly to the north twists and turns, here is the city of Xiangyang thirty miles to the north.

No one knew that Jiang Wei and the three hundred riders were resting here right now.

In the past three days, after crossing the river, everyone traveled to Xiangyang, Fancheng, and Xinye, and specially selected targets with weak garrisons, and the main target was the grain team of Wei.

Because during Guan Yu's Northern Expedition, the Xiangfan War lasted for a long time, and almost all the farmland in Xiangyang and Fancheng was submerged and destroyed, and the military resources required by Cao Ren and Xu Huang stationed in the local army mostly relied on Xuchang, Xinye, and Runan to replenish them, so there were many grain teams on the main road.

In the past three days, Jiang Wei led Yu Linwei to wait near the Chidao at the junction of Xiangyang, Fancheng and Xinye, and took a vote when he got the opportunity.

The biggest advantage of committing crimes at the junction is that the defenders may shirk their responsibilities and delay the dispatch of troops, thus making it easier for their troops to hide again.

At night, under the leadership of Guan Xing, Yu Linwei raided the Tuntian point located in Xinye, and did not kill many people, burned some grain and grass indiscriminately, and left some banners and military uniforms of Dongwu, and then walked in the direction of Dongrunan in full view of everyone.

In fact, as soon as he left everyone's field of vision, Yu Linwei turned west and quietly returned to his hiding place in the Xiangyang realm, and along the way, he would use tree branches to scratch the footprints on the ground.

In the next three or two days, the Wei army guards were led by the nose and reconnoitred the horses, but they were never found at all.

It's just that even if these days are exciting, they are really hard.

Inevitably exposed his whereabouts, Jiang Wei ordered that no fire should be lit. For several days, the people ate hard dry food and drank cold water. However, it's really nothing compared to sleeping in the wilderness in the cold of winter.

At night, the woods were cold and cold, and everyone had to rest next to the horses, relying on their body heat. Fortunately, Yu Linlang has a strong physique and can barely hold on.

A few days have passed in a flash.

In the early hours of this morning, the sky was just a little cloudy, and before sunrise, there were still a few remnant stars scattered in the sky, and the ground was pitch black.

The feather forest lang is resting horizontally and vertically in the forest. Many people have woken up early. Although their faces were tired, they were all excited.

Just because yesterday evening, Guan Xing, who was pretending to be a farmer, saw that the gate of Xiangyang City was wide open, and countless Wei troops were moving south.

This means that the intent of this operation has been achieved, and it also means that everyone can end this fearful day and turn back smoothly.

For Yu Linlang, who has suffered enough, this is undoubtedly the best news these days!

However, the water is still dark and unknown, and the boat at night is prone to problems such as scattering and accidentally touching the reef, so although everyone is like an arrow, they can only wait for the sky to light up before setting off.

At that time, in order to hide his traces, Jiang Wei ordered all twenty boats to be dragged into the woods to hide. At this time, Wang Ping was ordered to lead twenty Jingzhou soldiers to push the ships back into the water one by one.

The ships were large and heavy, and it took Wang Ping more than half an hour to finish handling the seventeen ships, and his head and body were all covered with sweat, and seeing that in a quarter of an hour, all the ships would be able to enter the water, he couldn't help but stop, breathed deeply, raised his hands high, and stretched his waist greatly.

Just as he was turning sideways, he saw a team of fire dragons winding not far away through the trees.

He was startled and hurriedly whispered, "Silence! Someone's coming! ”

Everyone's spirits were originally a little relaxed, but after he drank it, they all tensed up again, and they all bent down to look at the light.

The speed of the fire dragon approaching was extremely fast, faintly accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves bombarding the ground, thinking that a large force of cavalry was approaching.

For a while, everyone was sweating profusely, and the panic on their faces suddenly appeared.

Guan Xing quickly leaned over to Jiang Wei's side and asked in a low voice, "Are you ready to meet the enemy?" ”

Jiang Wei has been leading the cavalry for a long time, and just by the shaking of the ground, he can vaguely judge that the opponent's cavalry should be no less than 800 people. He thought to himself that his three hundred horsemen might not be able to win against eight hundred horsemen, and after a little thought, he immediately shook his head and said:

"If the whereabouts of our army are exposed, the Wei army will inevitably be startled, and it will definitely not come with such fanfare. This cavalry may have gone to Xiangyang City. Wait. ”

But to be on the safe side, he added: "Order, keep the knife in your hand, and do what I tell you to do." ”

The soldiers behind him immediately bit their ears and passed on his orders one by one.

The sound of the horses' hooves became clearer, and the cavalry approached nearer, and as the neighing of the horses sounded, the cavalry suddenly stopped ten feet in front of the forest.

Jiang Wei's heart almost reached his throat, and when he was about to draw his sword out of its sheath, the head of the cavalry suddenly jumped out of the general, and after running to the river, he actually lifted the hem of his robe, and it was convenient.

"Where the hell did Wu Jun come from, causing Lao Tzu to run back and forth between Xiangyang, Fancheng, and Xinye, and his legs ran around thin!" The general began to curse as he made it easier.

Seeing the Lord behaving like this, the riders in the cavalry jumped off their horses to relieve themselves, and scolded the Lord with him:

"I haven't slept for three days in a row, if I catch this group of dogs, I will definitely make them look good."

"This group of Wu soldiers is really looking for death, and the King of Wei doesn't go to him, but he sends it to the door."

"It doesn't make sense, General Cao sent seven or eight teams to search back and forth, I'm afraid that even the ground has been turned over, why haven't there been any traces?"

"Not to mention, this group of Wu troops is really cunning, one shot in the east and one arrow in the west, it is difficult for people to find their whereabouts!"

In the cold wind, with a shudder, the general lowered the hem of his robe and walked towards his horse with a relaxed step, cursing and swearing to himself.

After about half a cup of tea, all the Wei soldiers finished riding on their horses.

The general sat on horseback, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Okay, stop yelling, tomorrow will not be on duty, brothers go back to the city!" ”

Jiang Wei was already sweating, and he was immediately relieved when he heard this.

At this moment, a Jingzhou soldier suddenly relaxed again due to excessive nervousness, and his sweaty palm failed to cover the handle of the knife, and the long knife slid down.

The blade slammed into a stone on the ground with a clear crashing sound.

There was silence between the sky and the earth, and the voice was exceptionally clear.

Outside the forest, the Wei army suddenly quieted down and looked into the forest together.

Jiang Wei secretly said that it was not good, and in a hurry, he hurriedly whispered to Guan Xing beside him: "Take the brothers and go first!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he passed a longbow, three arrows, and jumped out of the forest, and raised his hand to shoot at the Wei army.

Only heard the three sounds of "Xiu Xiu Xiu", the Wei army fell two people in response, and an arrow hit the horse, the horse scurried around in pain, and the surrounding Wei army withdrew one after another in order to avoid the frightened horse, and the Wei army's formation was a little messy for a while.

On the Han army's side, because they were worried that the movement of the war horses eating grass and lying down was quite large, it inevitably attracted the attention of passers-by, and the war horses were hidden in the depths of the forest at this time.

Jiang Wei was in a hurry and couldn't lead the horse, so he had to blow his whistle, take advantage of the chaos and run to the north.
