Chapter 889: The Road Meets the Defeated Army
Panicked sweat, raindrops seemed to roll down from the forehead, mixed with the sweat on the face, and dripped on the dead leaves.
Boss Han was afraid that the other party would notice that he was not injured, so he did not hesitate to make up for the two knives, so this shocking secret could be annihilated.
It's a pity that the god of luck has nothing to do with him tonight, not far away from the guards, turning over the corpses one by one, without exception mending the knife, in the inquiry, there are two fish that have slipped through the net, and his thoughts are the same, hoping to lie in the center of the corpse, hide people's eyes and ears, but they are still killed by the guards.
For a while, Boss Han's heart became up and down, and he had no idea.
When the guards flipped the corpse next to him, Boss Han clutched the knife tightly, and suddenly jumped up, like a lone wolf trapped by a hound, his eyes were terrified, and he stared at the guards on all sides.
poofed, knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and said: "All the heroes spare their lives, the villain is confused for a while, please spare your lives." ”
"Kill him!" A guard commanded.
Whether the ghost is obsessed with his mind, or he intends to rob, provoke the army of the Son of Heaven of Dayan, and threaten the Emperor of Dayan, he will definitely die!
At this time, the two guards rushed forward quickly, their knives fell, and in the blink of an eye, Boss Han was hacked to death on the spot.
Clean up the killing fields, bury the dead leaves of the ruffian bullies, and return to the camp like the guards.
This place is deserted, in the depths of the forest, very few people come, when the sky is clear, the caravan continues to hurry, even if someone notices, the caravan has already left, to find the perpetrator, there is no way!
After reporting to Lin Feng, Lin Feng did not hesitate, immediately packed up, continued to hurry, and left the camp in time.
At dawn, the caravan traveled about fifteen miles before it stopped to replenish its strength, intending to rest for a while and continue on its way!
However, there are unforeseen circumstances, people have good and bad luck, and crises sometimes come unexpectedly!
After a cup of tea, suddenly a voice came from a distance, shouting: "Fast, the other party will definitely not be able to go far!" ”
For a while, Lin Feng, Cao Aman, Luo Da, and two hundred guards stood up together and looked into the distance.
A mile away, thousands of infantry, fast and fast, most of them were Mocheng officials, one by one, they looked around, as if they were searching for something?
At this time, in front of the infantry, a man dressed as a businessman stretched out his arm, pointed in the direction of Lin Feng and the others, and exclaimed, "Master Jun, then the murderer is in front." ”
Hearing the sound, the thousands of infantry looked in the direction of the merchant's finger, and happened to see Lin Feng and the others, and couldn't help shouting: "Chase after them, catch them!" ”
Suddenly, there were thousands of Mocheng infantry tracking, and it had nothing to do with Boss Han and the others, all because of the merchants who led the way.
Yesterday afternoon, Lin Feng and the others left Mocheng, and the three of Han Boss took their minions to pursue in time, and the merchant also went out of the city, and he led the caravan to the east of Mocheng, and this forest became the only way.
Because the buyer was in urgent need of the goods, he had to take a hundred people, holding the goods, starry night, hoping that at dawn, through the forest, arrived at the east of Mocheng on time, but unfortunately, he saw five or six hundred people killed in the forest.
How dare he stay for a long time, hurriedly took the caravan and quietly withdrew from the forest, went to the yamen to report to the official, and took the official to find Lin Feng and others in the forest, hoping to get an extra income.
So, the current situation is created.
Seeing thousands of infantry rushing over, Lin Feng was a little depressed, in the south, in the territory of Cai Guo, he didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, but unfortunately, the distance between the two sides was close at hand, and it might be possible to escape, but if the other party informed the surrounding officials, this trip to Cai Guo would become difficult.
"Your Majesty, what should I do, the last general personally slaughtered this group of bastards!" Rhoda pleaded, believing that the fish he had killed last night had caused his current predicament.
Lin Feng pondered for a moment, and said to Cao Aman and Luo Da: "One hundred and fifty personal guards, can you solve each other all?" ”
"Your Majesty, rest assured, 100 people are enough!" Cao Aman said with confidence, the Son of Heaven's personal guards were all selected from the blade soldiers, and their strength was undoubted, and they didn't take it a long time to face the ruffians and bullies, and they didn't pay attention to this group of servants.
"Good!" Lin Feng nodded and said, "I will take people ten miles away, waiting for you to return!" ”
"Your Majesty, wait a moment!"
Lin Feng did not hesitate, took a hundred cavalry, and Xiao Linlang and the others, rode their horses and left quickly, heading to the east.
Leaving the forest, there are official roads ahead, the official roads are flat, the war horses are galloping, the speed is not satisfied, and it only takes a quarter of an hour to land ten miles!
Ten miles away, Cao Aman, Luo Da led more than 100 people, rode horses to rush up to the service, today's battle, the soldiers are not many, will not be wide, all in the fine.
The officials who were in pursuit of the caravan found that they were looking for the caravan in the middle of the night, and after the two sides encountered, they could not help but flee without flinching, but on the contrary, more than 100 cavalry met them.
The murderous cavalry rushed up, and they felt more and more that the other party's identity was strange, there were few horses in the south, and Cai State bordered the Yangtze River, close to the north, and there was still a lack of war horses.
However, the hundred businessmen in front of him, all of whom are good horses, are definitely not idle people, let alone ordinary businessmen.
Having seen the corpses of hundreds of people in front of them, these officials and infantry knew very well that these people in front of them were extremely good at fighting, and when Cao Aman led his guards to rush up, some people dared to take it lightly.
The leader of the infantry, who was in the lead, shouted urgently: "Archers prepare, prepare to shoot." ”
Cao Aman and Luo Da led a hundred guards to break into the forest again, and did not directly rush to kill, on the contrary, like a tiger returning to the mountain, they walked around in the forest, and the crossbow in their palms shot short swords from time to time.
As he traveled, he roared and shuttled through the forest like a beast.
Under the threat of arrow rain, from time to time, some officials were shot, but they could not catch the traces of the guards, and the death and panic caused the infantry to commotion, pushing each other, and becoming a mess, but completely became a live target in the hands of the guards.
In the forest, Cao Aman and Luo Da slaughtered in all directions, showing the strong strength of the Great Yan cavalry. Lin Feng, Xiao Linlang and the others waited ten miles away, but they encountered suffering.
Hundreds of guards were on the official road to protect the safety of Lin Feng and Xiao Linlang, and at this time, at the end of the official road that could be seen, suddenly, a shaking shadow appeared, moving quickly towards the forest.
At first, the guards were vigilant, Lin Feng, Wang Lunyue, and Xiao Linlang also saw a crowd moving in front of the official road, although everyone was worried, they didn't care.
When the figure in the distance gradually approached, Lin Feng's face gradually became cold, although he did not ignore the specific number of the other party, he could vaguely see that the front was not ordinary people, but a team of more than a thousand infantry, and the other party was rapidly approaching.
At this time, Xiao Linlang panicked: "Xianggong, the situation doesn't seem to be good, could it be that our identities have been exposed?" ”
Xiao Linlang's guess is not without basis, last night he encountered a ruffian bully and not to mention, in the early morning, he was pursued by the Mocheng officials and officers and soldiers, and now there are officers and soldiers in front.
If everyone's identities had not been revealed, there would definitely not have been a situation where people were attacked by the front and rear of the army!
Lin Feng didn't say anything, just grabbed the hilt of the knife, and told the guards to be cautious, once the other party took the lead in attacking, he would rush forward without hesitation, kill decisively, and after getting out, it would be a big deal to turn around and go north and return to Dayan.
Not far away, the infantry was rapidly approaching, and Lin Feng was staring at the other party intently, already tightening the reins and preparing to charge.
However, as he observed, Lin Feng gradually found that the more than 1,000 infantry were in a sloppy formation, without the slightest intention of attacking, on the contrary, after gradually approaching, the opposing infantry was in rags, losing their armor and abandoning their armor, more like defeated deserters.
Turning his head to look at Wang Lunyue, Lin Feng asked, "In the intelligence, the Chu army has not yet broken into the east of Mocheng, right?" ”
"Han Xiangzi once tried to send an army into the east of Cai State, but was defeated by the cavalry led by Feng Yi, and the left wing of the Chu army has not yet recovered!" Wang Lunyue said without hesitation that she dared to be sure that there was no trace of the Chu army in the east of Emperor Cai's capital.
Hearing this, Lin Feng felt strange in his heart, there was a trace of the Chu army in the east of Mocheng, and there was a defeated army here, could it be that the power of Great Chu infiltrated near Mocheng, causing the county officials to launch a rebellion.
When the opposing infantry was about to approach, Lin Feng suddenly said to Wang Lunyue: "Lunyue, if I recover this group of defeated troops, what do you think?" ”
Seeing the defeated army in front of him, Lin Feng thought to himself that if he continued to gather the southern army and took advantage of the battle of Cai Chu to form his own forces in the south, whether he continued to go south or the Yan army fought south in the future, it seemed to be very advantageous.
"What is Xianggong going to do, occupy the mountain as the king?" Wang Lunyue asked with a puzzled expression, wondering why Lin Feng suddenly had the idea of recovering the defeated army.
"Almost!" Lin Feng said without hesitation.
Wang Lunyue nodded and said with a smile: "Xianggong, since you have an idea, you can give it a try, and if you don't succeed, you can also delay time and buy time for General Cao." ”
Lin Feng didn't think too much about it, but Wang Lunyue reminded him that he was more and more sure that it was necessary to try.
Glancing at the remnants of the soldiers who were approaching not far away, Lin Feng led five guards and rode their horses up.
The infantrymen who fled quickly saw that there were people in front of them stepping forward, and these people slowed down slightly, and looked ahead vigilantly one by one, wondering what the other party meant.
It is rare to see cavalry in Cai State, let alone good horses.
When the cavalry approached, more than 1,000 infantry all stopped, all in a panicked manner.
At this time, Lin Feng quickly surrendered his hand to the infantry general and said, "Dare to ask, general, can there be a war ahead, what are you doing?" ”
The leading general saw Lin Feng's respectful attitude, and said with a disdainful expression: "A grass man, why are you asking so much?" ”
With a snort, a guard next to him pulled the crossbow without hesitation, shot directly into the left arm of the leading general, and shouted: "Less nonsense, what does my son-in-law ask you, what do you say, dare to make a second time, and there is no forgiveness for killing?" ”
"Bastard!" The leading general was wounded in the arm, his face was bitter, and he was about to rush up with a long knife, when another broken arrow hit him in the neck, and the general had no time to speak, and fell directly to the ground.
The rest of the infantry, seeing the general being killed, was a little indignant, wanted to fight with a knife, two or three steps forward, the rear cavalry rushed up, a rain of arrows fell, and more than ten fast infantry in front were shot on the spot.
Rows of arrows rained down on the ground, and the rioting infantry instantly quieted down.
Lin Feng stared at the corpse on the ground, stared at the infantry in front of him, and shouted: "Who has the biggest military position, stand up!" ”
The emperor's wrath, even if he turned into a businessman, could not hide Lin Feng's majesty, and thousands of infantry retreated one after another, guessing Lin Feng's identity.
In the panic of the infantry, an injured general, supported by two infantrymen, stepped forward, hugged his fists and said: "Liu is the general of the squad, I don't know what the son means?" ”
Lin Feng's face was cold, and he asked, "Tell me, what is happening ahead, why are you defeated and fleeing!" ”
"Childe, Zhang Yuting, the general of the Yue Kingdom, claimed that the emperor introduced the Dayan cavalry into the south and destroyed the balance of the situation among the southern countries, so he was ordered by the emperor of the Yue State to lead 100,000 infantry to kill, and the forward troops were about to approach Mocheng." The wounded general said.
Hearing this, Lin Feng secretly pondered, Feng Yi really broke the balance of power among the southern countries when he went south, or did he plan to take advantage of the battle of Cai Chu to fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to annex the eastern part of Cai Guo!
However, no matter what the purpose of Yue Guo is, Zhang Yuting led 100,000 troops to the west, which will inevitably make Cai Guo's situation worse and worse, and even, when Zhang Yuting drives straight in, Emperor Cai's capital Mocheng will change hands.
With a calm face and a slightly more aggravated tone, Lin Feng asked: "100,000 infantry, you refused to defend the city, didn't you stop the Vietnamese army's westward expedition?" ”
"Childe, it is rumored that Wu Jieshao and Yan General Feng Yi were defeated in the south, losing dozens of cities, the last general and others defended the city, the people were panicked, 30,000 defenders, abandoned the city and fled!" The wounded general said.
"Damn!" As the emperor, the war did not take place in the Great Yan Territory, but the 30,000 defenders fled without recruitment, as the emperor, Lin Feng felt ashamed.
I couldn't help but shout: "Thirty thousand defenders, what about the others?" ”
At this time, an infantryman next to him said: "Son, defending the city without fighting, abandoning the city and fleeing is a capital crime, everyone is worried that the emperor will pursue it, many people choose to unload their armor and return to the field, and there are still people who are coming from behind, and we are fleeing relatively quickly, so we appear here." ”
"Flee relatively quickly, flee without a fight, save your life, do you feel particularly proud in your heart?" Lin Feng glared at the other party fiercely, and his anger was monstrous.
The injured general next to him saw Lin Feng's anger, and couldn't help asking, "Dare to ask Gongzi, who are you, are you a general sent by the emperor?" ”
Snorted lightly, Lin Feng didn't cut it, is Cai Jun qualified to let him work, he didn't capture him back to Yan Kingdom, it was enough to give him face,
His eyes were condensed, with anger, and he asked: "Who I am, it doesn't matter, the important thing is whether you want to win the battle, if you want to win the battle, you go with this son, and serve this son in the future, if you don't want to win the battle, you will live in a nest, and this son will not reveal your kamikaze to anyone!" ”
This wounded general is one of the few generals who resisted, otherwise he would not have been injured, as a general, even if he is a lower-level general, he is eager for victory, and if there is a general who leads everyone to a big victory, he is the first to be loyal.
It's just that, listening to Lin Feng's words, the other party doesn't seem to be able to serve like the emperor, but will gradually arm himself privately, he can't help but hesitate a little.
This time, at the risk of being disposed of by the emperor, he returned from the front line. In fact, he is still ready to play for Cai Guo, but unfortunately, the main army of Cai Guo is currently in the south, and it is very difficult to win.
What's more, the son in front of him is talking in the vernacular, only a few words, and it is difficult to convince everyone.
