Chapter 208: Hurry up and recruit from the truth!
Chen Zhi?
This person who is blocking the way, is he looking for Chen Zhi?
Where did we come from?
The convoy of the Ming monks and their horses, even several carriages were sitting, and when they heard these words, they all had wonderful expressions, not to mention how uncomfortable they were. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Dare us to follow Chen Zhi, not only to listen to his rumors, but also to block the gun for him?
Taking advantage of this effort, many people looked out of the carriage a few times, and as far as the eye could see, it was a sturdy man riding on a horse, gathering from all directions, cutting off the front and back roads, and there were still horses and horses in the forest on the side.
The leader looked quite fierce, with a bearded face and eyes like brass bells, and with his tall physique, he looked like a big bear on a horse.
"This is a group of horse thieves, looking at their physique, they are not small thieves, they are probably from other states and counties," looking at the situation outside the window, Xun Zhi showed a solemn expression, "They ambushed here in advance, could it be Chen Zhi's enemy?" This official road is already rugged, and it is a hidden place near the woods, and this group of people may have planned for a long time to raid, but by mistake, they intercepted us. ”
Ordinary bandits, horse thieves, if you want to maintain the scale, you have to plunder, this group of horse thieves is quite a few people, strong soldiers and horses, indicating that there is no shortage of food and clothing, so they can maintain physical strength, if they stay in one place for a long time, they will definitely attract the attention of the local government, and then encircle and suppress.
Sun Min put away his smile and shouted outside the car: "This strong man, we are not Chen Zhi, and Chen Zhi is not in our convoy, you have recognized the wrong person, it is better to retreat here, we will not pursue it, how about it?" ”
"Hahaha!" The leader of the horse thieves, Niu Men, looked up to the sky and laughed, and then suddenly stopped laughing, revealing a hideous expression, "When I was a three-year-old hairy child, you wanted to trick me into leaving?" You said no, I'll go, spread the word, don't you want to get mixed up? Don't talk nonsense, Chen Zhi, let you come out, you will come out! If you don't want to come out, let my people search the car, and if you're not in the convoy, I'll turn around and leave! ”
As soon as these words came into the car, everyone was helpless.
This kind of thing is not easy to explain, even if the horse thief outside has seen Chen Zhi himself, it is impossible for everyone to go out and let him identify it, let alone let the horse thief search the car, what is the difference between this and sending the wolf into the sheepfold?
In the middle of the carriage, Sun Min narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice: "Since things can't be good, then don't delay, I'll try to delay time, you let people get ready, try to break through!" ”
Xun Zhe couldn't help but ask, "Can't you defeat them?" Our escorts are carefully selected, and if we put on a position, we may not lose to them. ”
Sun Min shook his head and said: "They had been ambushed in advance, and they suddenly broke out, which shows that this horse thief is also a little experienced, not comparable to ordinary bandits, and their number is unknown, in case there are other people in ambush, even if they can defeat these people in front of them, it is useless, and they may not be able to defeat, they have horses!" ”
"Where did these people get their horses?" Cao Qing's face was puzzled, "The control of horses in the imperial court is very strict, and as a result, almost everyone in this group has one horse, which is too weird. ”
"You're reading to death! Now is not the time to say this, do what I tell you to do, and so ......on."
It is not uncommon for the children of the family to go out to study and meet thieves in the wilderness, for many thieves, this kind of family study tour can be regarded as a fat sheep, and similar interceptions and killings have occurred from time to time in the past.
Therefore, the family has a set of codes to convey instructions by knocking on the carriage, but unfortunately, before Sun Min finished arranging, and there was no chance for him to plan to delay, the cow gate outside suddenly sneered and shouted: "Toast and don't eat and drink, let you come out and you don't come out, then it's no wonder I'm no wonder!" Kill me! ”
Then, there was a burst of fighting, mixed with several exclamations.
"The horse thief is attacking, then there is no way!" Sun Min frowned, as if he had already made a decision.
Cao Qing hurriedly asked, "Senior brother, what should we do now?" ”
Sun Min smiled instead: "We can't help it, it was originally a sudden, and the enemy didn't delay at all, so we can only wait in the car, what we can do is not to make trouble for the guards, after all, most of our guards are carefully selected." ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces were hard to look at.
There were bursts of rushing and shouting sounds outside the carriage, which made everyone in the carriage tense their heartstrings.
Boom!
Suddenly, the dull sound was accompanied by the shaking of the carriage, as if someone had hit the carriage, the whole carriage shook, and the expressions of everyone in the carriage changed, and even Sun Min couldn't maintain a smile and became serious.
Their eyes involuntarily fell on the car door.
Fortunately, after the impact, there was no follow-up development.
A few breaths, in this kind of fighting, is as long as hours.
Suddenly, there were several terrible screams outside, the sound was quite familiar, and Cao Qing recognized it at a glance, it belonged to Wei Ou's friends.
Suddenly, the atmosphere in the carriage became heavy, and they knew that this meant that someone had been killed.
However, Cao Qing and the others did not have the time to care about others, and they themselves were also in danger.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly shook slightly, and then slowly moved.
The people in the car got nervous, and then they heard a voice coming in from outside.
"A few gentlemen, masters, there are too many thieves, although we can resist, we can't rush through, it is difficult to last, there is an official and military checkpoint nearby, as long as you arrive there, the beacon fire transmits the message, and the officers and soldiers are linked, the thief will inevitably retreat in fear!"
Listening to this voice, the people in the car regained their heart.
The sound of the battle outside the car became more and more intense, Cao Qing looked at the opportunity, lifted the corner of the curtain, carefully observed the outside, and saw that although there were many thieves, they were not systematic, and they seemed fierce to rush over, but as soon as they were stopped by the guards' formation, they were frustrated and retreated.
"It's strange, when these people attacked just now, they still looked a little good, how could they attack, and there was no order?" Xun Zhe also saw the situation outside, knew that the guards were reliable, and breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time asked questions.
Sun Min figured it out: "The horse thief just relied on a breath, when the first gas rushed to kill, if he didn't take down me, he would be a little weaker, and then he would encounter elite soldiers, it would be more difficult to make contributions, but look at their ferocity, our guards don't want to defeat each other, it's a pity, the few people who screamed just now, if they stay in the car honestly and march with the guards, maybe there will be no accidents, the more times like this, the more you have to be stable, you can't mess with yourself, you might as well take a look at the master......"
When Cao Qing and Xun Zhen heard this, they looked towards the corner of the carriage and saw the Ming monks sitting cross-legged, bowing their heads and chanting the scriptures, although their expressions were a little solemn, but they did not see panic.
Xun Zhe couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The master's concentration is not comparable to us. ”
Calm in chaos, easy to say, how difficult it is to do, even if Cao Qing and a few of them, when the carriage moved, it was difficult to suppress the panic in their hearts, especially the horses outside the car were frightened, the carriage almost lost control, after the coachman was killed by a thief with an arrow, even Cao Qing thought he wanted to play, and almost ran out of the carriage, but fortunately was caught by Sun Min.
Then one of the guards stepped forward, harnessed the carriage, and hurried forward, and after a period of confusion, someone shouted "Officers and soldiers are coming", which finally made the gang of horse thieves hesitate, and then retreated at the command of the Niumen, but two of Wei Ou's companions were put on their horses and swept away.
Whew!
The sound of horses' hooves was urgent, and the dust was raised, and it came and went like the wind, and in a blink of an eye the group of horse thieves all retreated.
After a while, the carriage curtain was lifted, Sun Min looked out carefully, and saw that the horse thief was really clean, so he took a deep breath and relaxed, as if he was collapsing, don't look at what he said and laughed just now, in fact, it was to calm the hearts of several people in the car, in fact, he was also nervous.
"Horse thieves come and go like the wind, no wonder they are hard to eradicate."
After a sigh of emotion, Sun Min heard a few calls coming from not far away, and then several soldiers rushed over, and it could be seen that these soldiers were also in shock.
"We've heard about it, you're frightened......"
The leader of the soldiers came over, saw Sun Min and the others, and said again and again, Sun Min and the other guards, as soon as the battle started, two people broke through and reported to the checkpoint.
There are not many people at the checkpoint, and the reason why the horse thief can be scared away is because there are communication methods such as beacon fire and sound transmission, once the checkpoint is known, it is possible to make a large number of officers and soldiers gather.
The leader of the soldiers also had a frightened expression, looked at the slightly messy convoy, and said: "The thief army is retreating, you gentlemen should take advantage of this time and get on the road as soon as possible!" ”
"No!" Suddenly, a slightly hoarse voice came from behind, and then Wei Ou walked over with a sad and angry face, "The horse thief intercepted a few of my friends, how can you give up?" In a prosperous and peaceful world, horse thieves can be murderous, how can they let it go? Quickly take me to the garrison generals, and you must gather all your troops and horses to hunt down this gang of horse thieves with ten times the force! ”
As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, thinking that it was Chen Zhi, in his opinion, if Chen Zhi was intercepted and killed first, they would not have met so unlucky.
"I suspect that this gang of horse thieves was provoked by that Chen Zhi!"
As soon as he said this, Sun Min and the others frowned slightly, but Wei Ou's words were also reasonable, and it was difficult to refute, but the forehead of the leader of the soldiers was sweating!
On the other side, after Niu Men retreated with a group of brothers, he took refuge in a dense forest, sent a few people out to let out the wind and investigate, and he interrogated the two people he had captured.
The two of them were covered in bruises, and they couldn't bear to be tortured, and after asking a few words, Niumen couldn't help frowning.
"It's really not Chen Zhi's team?" His face was full of surprise, but then he asked, "And who are you?" Where did Chen Zhi go? Hurry up and recruit from the truth! ”
