Chapter 257: Capturing An Gu Alive

The road from the valley to the mountains is not long.

But when Angu's army ran up the hill at the risk of being burned to death, he let out a long sigh of relief.

"Oh, my mom, I finally managed to get out." Yasuya sat on the ground, gasping for air.

Originally, he led 3,000 soldiers to deal with the Kingdom of Yu, but who knew that if the battle continued, there would not be even 200 people behind him.

When he looked back, he saw that his men were still struggling in the sea of fire below the mountain.

Boundless, boundless! The fire was blowing in the wind, and it was whirring towards the Fengrong soldiers who had not yet had time to escape.

"Ah---, it's hurting me, it's hurting me." The screams of the burned Fengrong soldiers were heard endlessly towards the mountain.

There used to be a stream in the valley, but it has long since dried up due to the dry water in winter. At this time, those Fengrong soldiers who were attacked by the Qin army were only burned alive.

Looking at the Fengrong soldiers who were burned into fireballs at the foot of the mountain, the joy that An Gu had just run out of was gone.

"Don't be sad, the prince is here, the Qin army is nearby, it's important for us to flee for our lives." Commander Fengrong came to Angu's side and said to him.

"Well---, you're right, the Qin army definitely didn't go far, let's get out of here quickly." An Gu got up and no longer cared about the Fengrong soldiers who were still being burned by the Qin army at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, his subordinates found his war horse for An Gu and led him over.

At critical times, horses can run much faster than people. Many of the Fengrong soldiers were burned to death in this fire, but not many of the war horses were burned to death.

After all, a four-legged horse can run much faster than a two-legged man.

An Gu got on his horse, looked back at the Fengrong soldiers who were still struggling in the valley, turned around and ran north.

Passing through the depression in front of you, and then up the opposite mountain beam, you will continue north to the plateau.

As long as you go up to the plateau, everything is easy to say. You must know that Fengrong is a nomadic people, and the speed of war horses is much faster than that of horses in Guanzhong.

Besides, you, the Qin people, have only been in Guanzhong for a few years, and the cavalry team that has not yet been formed, why should you pursue the participating troops of Angu?

With more than 200 Fengrong soldiers who escaped, An Gutou did not look back and galloped forward.

After all, I am running for my life at this time, and my life will be in danger if I slow down.

The fast horse galloped for more than a mile and came to the low-lying area ahead.

Maybe there were too many things to worry about all the way, but this time Angu didn't even think about it, and went directly to the depression.

"Prince, there is someone on the stone ahead." Inadvertently, his subordinates exclaimed to Angu.

Someone on the stone?

An Gu looked up, and sure enough, there was a very large stone in the center of the depression, shaped like a turtle. At this time, there were two people standing on this very large stone.

"Huh? Yingkang? ”

Yes, it was Yingkang and Zhao Boyu standing on the stone.

"Prince Angu, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon." Seeing An Gu, Ying Kang said with a smile, not at all like the nervousness of marching and fighting.

"What are you going to do?" Although Yingkang is not tall or strong, An Gu was a little scared when he saw Yingkang at this time.

"Prince Angu don't be nervous, I just want to have a good talk with the prince." Ying Kang continued to say with a smile.

"Talk? Hmph, Prince Ben doesn't have time to make small talk with you. An Gu said angrily, you Qin Jun made my men and horses like this, where am I in the mood to chat with you.

"Don't want to talk?" Without waiting for Yingkang to speak, Zhao Boyu beside him spoke, "Prince Angu, take a good look, I can help you?" ”

An Gu looked up to both sides, and the surrounding area of the depression was already covered with Qin soldiers armed with bows and arrows, and at this time they were aiming their bows and arrows at the Fengrong soldiers in the depression.

"Prince Angu, how about getting off the horse and going with me to Qianyi? We can sit down and talk slowly. Ying Kang still said with such a casual smile.

Now, An Gu had no choice but to dismount and follow Yingkang's army towards Qianyi.

Qianyi.

The news of victory in the first battle has reached here.

"Report --, ahead urgently."

Ying Kang's army hadn't returned yet, and the scouts had already brought the news here.

"Open the gates, our scouts are back." Yingzhao, who was guarding the city, looked at the scouts galloping below, and said to the soldiers guarding the city.

The scout who reported the news quickly entered the city, "Report to the third prince of the ---,, our army inflicted heavy losses on the enemy in the valley north of Chenyi, and captured more than 200 enemies such as Angu, the prince of Fengrong Youxian. ”

"Huh? Captured Prince Angu, good! I knew my little brother was amazing. After this battle, Feng Rong can be regarded as suffering a big loss. Let's see if they dare to come to find trouble for our Qin people again. Ying Zhao said happily to Liu Tong after hearing this.

Liu Tong also showed a happy look when he heard this, but he was not as happy as Yingzhao, "For so many years, our Guanzhong country has been invaded by Rongdi in the north, and almost every battle must be lost, and now you Qin people have come to Guanzhong from Inuqiu, and finally changed the dilemma that the Guanzhong country must lose every battle." Congratulations! ”

Of course, Yingzhao was happy to hear this, "To tell you the truth, our Qin people are not as powerful as you think, and before my fifth brother was not in charge of the Qin army, many times we lost more and won less." Even my father was killed by Feng Rong. However, since the fifth brother took charge of the Qin army, this situation has improved. Besides, after this battle, I think Feng Rong will not dare to attack my Qin city again in a few years. ”

Ying Zhao's thoughts were only limited to Feng Rong's attack on the Qin people, but he did not find Liu Tong's thoughtful expression.

"Lord Liu, let's prepare for us to welcome Lord Sima back." Yingzhao still couldn't hide the joy in his heart and said to Liu Tong.

saw his serious face, "Lord Liu is fine, right?" ”

"Nothing, nothing, I'm just thinking about things." Liu Tong hurriedly said.

Thinking about things?

"What is there to think about at this time? Can you tell me about it? Yingzhao said happily.

"Actually, it's nothing, I just thought that this Lord Sima has achieved such a big victory, should we report it to the imperial court?" Liu Tong said.

Retribution? Report to the imperial court?

Yingzhao looked at Liu Tong puzzled, "Does Lord Liu mean that you want the Zhou royal family to report our victory?" ”

Liu Tong nodded slightly, "That's exactly what I meant." ”

Ying Zhao thought for a moment, "I can't say this, we will discuss it after the fifth brother comes back, but at the moment, we should prepare food first and reward those Qin soldiers who participated in the battle." ”

Looking at the excited and busy Yingzhao, Liu Tong smiled and went down the city with him.

Yingzhao is somewhat wise compared to Yinghai and others, but there is still a gap between him and Liu Tong, a politician who has lived in Guanzhong for decades.

At this time, Liu Tong was really thinking about things, and he was still thinking about big things.
