The next morning, before the sun came out, the golden light on the horizon reflected on the earth, dyeing all places with a brilliant layer of color. Smoke was already rising from the makeshift shelter outside the city gate, and civilians who had risen early in the morning were picking vegetables and cooking.

More than a hundred uneven war horses slowly moved forward, and Zhao Tianyou on horseback carried Deng Huaiyuan in the middle of the team, and marched south after passing through the city gate. Outside the South City Gate, officials of all sizes in Zhangzhou gathered together, and ordinary people and soldiers watched the procession pass by, and their eyes mixed with various emotions constantly glanced at Zhao Tianyou, all wanting to see what this guy who had tied up Lord Deng's meat ticket looked like.

Wen Tianxiang was dressed in a cyan official robe, standing on the other side with a dozen of his subordinates, who were a little cramped and uneasy, looking out of place with the officials around him, and even ignoring the few new faces in his ranks. Everyone knows very well what happened last night, Wen Tianxiang sacrificed his life and insisted on keeping Zhao Tianyou leave safely, everyone saw it, but what should I do after Zhao Tianyou leaves today?

Deng Huaiyuan's reputation in Zhangzhou City is very good, and these officials under him are also quite loyal, although Wen Tianxiang is the prime minister of the dynasty, but in this stormy war, he must not speak as well as Deng Huaiyuan. So how to resolve the contradiction between Deng Huaiyuan and Wen Tianxiang when he came back from danger, this is the reason why the dozen or so subordinates who followed Wen Tianxiang were restless and worried.

It was not only Wen Tianxiang's men who were also nervous, Qin Song, the hussar general of Zhangzhou Prefecture, with five hundred brave soldiers, had already gone out of the city in advance last night to ambush in the black pine forest, the only way to rush to the seaside dock from the south city gate.

As long as there are three arrows in the city, it means that Lord Deng is out of danger, so Zhao Tianyou and his men will have to be buried in the chaotic slope of the black pine forest today. In Qin Song's opinion, Zhao Tianyou has more than 100 people around him, and he is purely a chicken feather role such as a foot man and a laborer, although he carries a common bow and a sword, but in front of this long-trained officer and soldier, I am afraid that he will not be able to make three moves.

The more than 100 horses prepared for Zhao Tianyou are the only war horses in Zhangzhou City, and the frequent defeats in the north have almost exhausted the horses in Zhangzhou, otherwise they would not have come out overnight to ambush in the black pine forest to intercept them.

"It's all there, hurry back to the port to board the ship, I'll be there later!"

Zhao Tianyou stopped, waved his hand and signaled his subordinates to speed up, this was an order that had been arranged before leaving, and his subordinates quickly whipped their horses at the same time, and rushed in the direction they came.

The two of them stood in place, a high-headed red horse and an old dehaired donkey, and their eyes met.

"You're not leaving? I'm going back if you don't go, there's no time to stand here stupidly. ”

"I can't go now, and you can't go back!"

"Why? I've promised to let you go, what else are you going to do? Let me continue to make a fool of myself in front of my subordinates? ”

Two soldiers with longbows, lying on the top of the tall poplar tree, looked at the two mounts from a distance, and just waited for Deng Huaiyuan's donkey to walk away, they would send out arrows into the sky to inform Qin Song, who was ambushed in the black pine forest.

Time passed quietly, and the sound of the horse's hooves galloping quickly came from far and near, but Qin Song in the black pine forest still didn't hear the signal of the arrow, and the palms of his hands holding the saber were sweaty. The soldiers behind him had already drawn their bowstrings, and just waiting for him to give the order, they fired a volley of arrows to stop the rushing horses.

The sound of hooves was about to ring in Qin Song's ears, but the expected arrow did not sound, Qin Song could only watch and watch as Zhao Tianyou's men rode away the only war horse in Zhangzhou City, and could not do anything.

"Rush back to the city immediately and see what happened, whether Master Deng escaped the danger!" Qin Song almost shouted and ordered his subordinates to ride the only two thin horses and quickly go to investigate the situation.

Puzzled, puzzled, humiliated, angry and other expressions were presented on Deng Huaiyuan's face one by one, he knew very well that his subordinates, Qin Song, did not appear at the city gate in the morning, so he must have been ambushed on the road ahead. The Black Pine Forest is the best place to ambush, as long as Deng Huaiyuan is separated from Zhao Tianyou, then none of these people can leave.

But it seems that this guy with a smile on his face has discovered something, and he dares to let his subordinates evacuate first and pull himself to prevent him from leaving, which really angers Deng Huaiyuan.

"What exactly do you want to do? Let me go! Deng Huaiyuan was already shouting hysterically, but the rope that bound his hands was tied to Zhao Tianyou's saddle, and if he didn't untie it, he wouldn't be able to get out of it anyway.

Looking at the two thin horses galloping over from a distance, Zhao Tianyou knew that his people had rushed over, and it was no longer interesting to continue to detain Deng Huaiyuan, so he took out his saber and cut the rope with a wave of his hand.

"Okay, let you go, hurry back to the city!"

"Humph!" After a cold snort, Deng Huaiyuan, who was freed, grabbed the donkey under his crotch, and rushed towards the two sergeants without returning to the city, and at the same time, a series of arrows were shot from the treetops.

Zhao Tianyou hesitated for a moment to understand what Deng Huaiyuan was going to do, he wanted to make peace with the soldiers who were in ambush outside the city, whether it was to come back to kill Zhao Tianyou, or to lead the troops to pursue the fleeing horse team, it was a revenge for Zhao Tianyou.

The donkey is not very fast, and the jujube red horse that Zhao Tianyou rode is very good, and it only takes a few sprints to catch up, and he continues to catch Deng Huaiyuan as a hostage. However, Zhao Tianyou did not chase after the horse, but took off the longbow on his back, just held it tightly, and did not shoot the arrow from the quiver.

He was still hesitating, Deng Huaiyuan had no grievances with him, he couldn't raise any murderous thoughts at all, and he was still a good official in Zhangzhou City to resist the Yuan soldiers, but why should he embarrass himself so much? Zhao Tianyou can't figure it out, and he can't figure it out.

"You two quickly pass my order to Su Yong in the city, quickly light up 10,000 soldiers, go out of the city to pursue the fleeing thieves, don't delay and slacken, I will go to the front to meet Qin Song!" Blocking this single-handedly Zhao Tianyou! ”

Deng Huaiyuan was anxious, when he was freed, he wanted more, he wanted to catch up with the escapees, he wanted to capture Zhao Tianyousheng, he wanted a lot......

Deng Huaiyuan's loud roaring order could be heard from a distance, Zhao Tianyou raised his palm, slapped his face lightly, shook his head and sighed lightly.

I saw him stretch out his hand to the quiver, snapping three times in a row, and in an instant, three wolf's tooth arrows shot out like chasing the clouds and catching the moon. These three arrows were angry and angry, and the bow was like a full moon arrow like a meteor, and it hit the target as accurately as if it were navigating.

Deng Huaiyuan was hit by an arrow in the back, and the force was surprisingly great, pushing him out of the donkey's back, and when he fell to the ground, Deng Huaiyuan, whose heart was broken, was already dead.
