Dead people, where did the dead come from? Yu Wencheng was also shocked when he heard that there were dead people.

"Back to the master, it's just outside the east gate."

Yu Wencheng didn't care about resting, and hurriedly said, "Let's go, take Master Ben to have a look." ”

Many officials and family members hurriedly escorted Yu Wencheng to the direction of the east gate with torches, on the way Yu Wencheng learned the details, it turned out that after the unitary time, the soldiers on duty at the east gate heard the sound of horses suddenly outside the door, and then someone desperately knocked on the door, the soldiers hurriedly went to the city to check, through the moonlight and torches barely saw that the next person in the city was riding on a horse, covered in blood, and the body was also hit by two bright arrows.

That person is obviously a military long arrow, the city defenders are not trivial, and they think that there is a man-made rebellion or the enemy army is attacking the city, how dare to let that person enter the city, and there is no order from the county order, once the city gate is closed, no one dares to open it privately, so he has to send someone to report to Yu Wencheng.

Yu Wencheng heard that his heart was also up and down, he had a ghost in his heart, and he couldn't help but guess randomly, who this person was, why was he injured, suffered, could it be a secret agent of the court, thinking about it like this, Yu Wencheng suddenly became anxious, and kept urging his subordinates to speed up their pace.

At this time, the east gate of the city was bright, many soldiers around the city wall stretched out their heads to look down, the man who called the door just now could no longer support it, lying on the ground without moving, only the horse he brought kept screaming.

"Are you dead?"

"I don't know, maybe I'm dead."

"Why don't you send someone down to have a look?"

"No, no one is allowed to leave the city without the order of the county commander, who knows if there is an enemy ambush outside?"

The soldiers in the city were indifferent, until a shout: The county commander arrived, and all the soldiers stopped talking and got out of the way, letting Yu Wencheng squeeze to the front.

"What's going on?"

"Look, my lord, he's right there."

Yu Wencheng held on to the battlements, looked down and saw that three or four torches were being thrown under the city and making a sound of peeling and burning. Next to the firelight, a man was lying head-down, motionless, with two long black arrows on his back, most of this person's body had been dyed red with bright red, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

All the soldiers looked at Yu Wencheng, waiting for him to give an order, at the beginning this person also shouted and asked to open the door and meet the county order, but the soldiers asked him his identity and origin, but this person did not answer. The soldiers defending the city naturally would not open the door easily, and it was useless to let him scream and cut his throat, and slowly this person did not know whether he was bleeding too much or physically exhausted, and his voice gradually lowered until it gradually became inaudible.

Yu Wencheng always had a familiar feeling when he looked at the people in the city, and there was still a little inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, but this person was facing down. I couldn't see it clearly at all, and even the clothes on my body were soaked in most of them because of blood, making it impossible to tell the difference, Yu Wencheng had agreed with the judgment of the official in his heart, this person was dead, and it was impossible to be alive after so much blood.

"Come, open the gates. Carry the man into the city. Yuwen gave the order.

The soldiers looked left and right, but did not respond to the order, Yu Wencheng was furious: "You dare to disobey the order? ”

One of them said cowardly: "My lord, it's not that we want to disobey the order, but it's dark now, and as soon as the city gate opens, what if there is an enemy lying in the dark?" ”

Everyone inevitably has all kinds of speculations about this person who appeared inexplicably, and the most guessed is that there are thieves and gangsters. Over the years, although Wanrong County is peaceful, but there are a lot of thieves in the surrounding counties, and even sneaking into the county seat late at night to kill people and goods, the more people guess, the more they feel, the dark place outside the city seems to have lurked countless thieves, just wait for the city gate to be killed in the county.

"Nonsense. Now the world is peaceful. Where did the thieves come from? "Yu Wencheng naturally knows what is going on with the thieves who appeared in Linxian. Among them, **Chengdu is the dry land of the secret army hidden in the mountains.

If there are no thieves, what is the matter with the people under the city? Everyone was very dissatisfied in their hearts, but the county commander insisted on opening the city gate, and everyone was helpless, and several people had to go down to the city to open the door tremblingly.

The gate creaked and showed a crack in the door, and then several of the officials came out of the door like rabbits, lifted the people lying on the ground and ran back, and even the horses were not led, and as soon as a few people entered the city, the city gate suddenly clanged loudly, and closed it tightly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that nothing had happened.

A servant touched the man's nose and exclaimed in surprise: "Master, this person is still angry." “

"Quick, carry it up." Yu Wencheng always felt that this person had something to do with him.

Several officials did not dare to slack off, carried the person in front of Yu Wencheng, carefully flipped him over, everyone finally saw the man's face clearly, this is a man about thirty years old, purple face, high nose and eyes, with a curly beard under his forehead, the beard is yellow, looking at this person's appearance, it looks more like a Xianbei person.

Although the Sui Dynasty has been in place for several years, it is now the world of the Han people, the Xianbei people are no longer superior, and there are no previous privileges, but the queen is an out-and-out Xianbei nobleman, many Xianbei people are still high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court, some Han people have long formed an inferiority complex has not been completely eliminated, seeing this person is likely to be a Xianbei person, many people are ahah screamed, you know, if a Xianbei nobleman died in the jurisdiction a few years ago, there must be many innocent people to suffer, and now Yuwen County Commander is Xianbei people, I don't know if it will be angry with them.

As soon as the faces of the people on the ground were revealed, Yu Wencheng suddenly felt like he had been struck by lightning, and his heart was overturned: "How is it possible, how is it possible?" ”

Of course, he recognized that this person was the leader of the army hidden in the mountains, and his identity was still above him, and he was still Yuwen's deputy general, in fact, Yuwencheng only paid for this army, and had no right to control this army, of course, as the saying goes, people are short-handed, eat people softly, what's the matter, Yuwencheng can still let the army send someone to help this time, which is why Yuwenyuan asked the army to move.

Yu Wencheng's mind was a mess, and he also hid a stomach of questions, how could he appear outside the county gate, and how could he be seriously injured.

"My lord, do you want to save this person?" One person asked boldly, and many people had already seen that Yu Wencheng's face was wrong.

"Quick, bring water, and hurry up to invite Langzhong." After Yu Wencheng reacted, he hurriedly issued a series of orders. This man must be saved now

No one knows what happened, let alone what would happen if the army in the mountains did not have a first path.

That night, it was destined that Wanrong County would be chickens and dogs, first the county magistrate was surrounded by the officials and rushed to the east gate, and then soon the county Langzhong was picked up from bed by the officials in the middle of the night and rushed to the east gate.

Under the moonlight. Dozens of miles away from Wanrong County, a team of hundreds of people is on the way, these people are riding on tall horses, except for the rustling sound of horses' hooves stepping on the ground, the whole team is basically silent, and the occasional whispers are only mixed with reminders to hurry up and be careful.

This team was of course Yang Yong and his escort, and now that Yang Yong and the other guards had converged, it was a cavalry army of three hundred people. And well-equipped, Yang Yong has decided to raid the 2,000 rebels in the valley overnight, at the beginning Yang Yong only led 2,000 men and horses to dare to rush to the Turkic tens of thousands of troops, now there are 300 people, there is no need to flee in a county town.

What supports Yang Yong's adventure is the terrain of the hiding place of the 2,000 army in Wanrong County, the so-called gourd valley, so the name is like the gourd place. The exit is small, the middle is large, so the terrain is suitable for hiding soldiers, but once people block the way out, it is like catching turtles in an urn, and no matter how many soldiers there are, it is useless.

Yang Yong had already asked from Yu Wenyuan's family that there were only two exits to this gourd valley, and one of the exits was still a mountain path, and there was a big man in charge. Although the other exit is a little larger, it can only accommodate two carriages walking side by side, and there are hillsides on both sides that are dozens of zhang high, which can easily block the valley.

Although one person escaped during the day, this person was already injured, and it is estimated that he would either return to the city or hide to recuperate. It is impossible to return to the valley after walking nearly seventy miles, which means that the news of their failed ambush will not reach the valley at least tonight, as long as they arrive before dawn and block the exit of the valley, no matter how many soldiers and horses in the valley can only be trapped in the valley.

It is not too difficult to travel 70 miles in one night. In fact, the ambush personnel arranged by Yu Wenyuan also sneaked from the valley overnight. Yang Yong is at least sure that his plan can be realized. It's just that the prince's safety is at stake, and everyone is still worried. As a result, there was a tense atmosphere in the team.

"Stop!"

The team stopped in turn, and a horse rushed to Yang Yong's side from the front of the team: "Your Highness, ten miles ahead is the valley where the rebels are hiding. ”

Yang Yong and Yun Mei'er rode together, the carriage was too cumbersome and had been discarded, hearing the report, Yang Yong looked up at the sky, the moon was still hanging in the air, and knew that there was enough time: "Order, everyone get off the horse and walk!" ”

"Yes."

"Whoa." There was a sudden sound of dismounting in the procession, and the whole team suddenly seemed to be half a cut shorter, and began to lead the horses slowly.

Yu Wenyuan and his two family members led the way in front together, the two family members did not suffer anymore because of their cooperation, but Yu Wenyuan was tied up with five flowers, and his mouth was stuffed with a rag, although Yu Wenyuan was indignant in his heart, but there was no way, at this moment, he probably guessed Yang Yong's intentions, and he was even more shocked and angry in his heart, regretting it to death, he knew that there were so many people on the other side, and he should have all been dispatched yesterday.

Half an hour later, everyone had rushed to the entrance of the gourd valley and quietly lurked down, while Yang Yong had sent Yang Shi to lead a team to another mountain pass behind the mountain.

Time passed little by little, Yang Yong silently estimated the moment, the two exits are best to launch actions at the same time, but they can't do it at the same time, and the time difference can't be too long, otherwise it is possible for the other party to find out and desperately grab the exit, so Yang Yong has to wait.

Another team of fifty people was marching on the top of the mountain, and Yang Shi kept urging Yuwen Yuan's family Ding who led the way: "Hurry, hurry up." ”

In the valley was the camp of the rebels, and looking down from the mountain, you could see the torches dotted in the middle of the valley, this valley was so big that it would take at least an hour to rush from the front to the rear, and they had no time to spare.

"Wow." One of the guards only felt a softness under his feet, and a stone loosened and rolled down the mountain, and with a half-bang, there was a snapping echo from the bottom of the mountain, and everyone was taken aback and stopped unconsciously.

The valley is still quiet and unresponsive, the situation of the falling rocks is too common, maybe it falls off automatically, maybe there are animals walking, not to mention that the sound on the mountain is quite loud, in fact, the rebel camping place is in the middle of the valley, there is a long distance from both sides, they can hear it at all, but it makes Yang Shi and the others have a false alarm.

Seeing that there was no reaction at the bottom of the mountain, everyone relaxed and started to move forward again, but the footsteps were unconsciously lighter, and Yang Shi did not dare to urge again.

Seeing that the sky was about to turn white, Yang Yong exhaled, stood up from the place where he was lurking, waved his hand, and hundreds of horsemen stood up directly from the grass in the place of lurking, and walked towards the exit of the valley.

There are fine pine resin torches lit next to the gate of the wall, illuminating the surroundings in detail, more than a dozen soldiers guarding the gate are dozing, the sound of horses' hooves has aroused the vigilance of several guards, and one person shouted: "What person? ”

Before the Yuwen Yuan family member who brought him over, another guard had already answered for him: "Who else, it must be that the general has returned." ”

Hearing that it was the general who led the team back, the guards who were dozing quickly stood up and lined up in two rows, they never suspected that an enemy would come here, this valley has been personally divided into a forbidden valley by the Wanrong County Order, and usually except for their own people, not even a villager will come.

The two sides got closer and closer, and finally someone noticed that something was wrong, these people seemed to be strange faces, and the clothes were not right: "Who are you?" ”

They were answered by a rapid rain of arrows, almost in unison, and the guards who stood in two rows, trying to welcome their general's return, shot at the hedgehogs without even giving a warning.

Looking at this valley mouth that could only accommodate two carriages to move forward, Yang Yong breathed a sigh of relief, things were actually simpler than he imagined, this place was simply a dead end, even if the other party found out now, he couldn't rush out of the valley.

"Find boulders, cut wood, seal the grain!"
