Chapter Forty-Eight: A Swallow Shocks the Mountain
It's already night, and the moonlight is good tonight, but it's not good news for Li Yan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The 500 soldiers led by Zheng Bin were stopped inside the city gate.
Yan Jingshan led a team of royal forest troops, and the sword was on the horse.
Standing next to Yan Jingshan was none other than Wang Xiangda, the secretary of the Ministry of War.
Yan Jingshan said: "Dog thief! Where are my brothers in the Tiger Thorn Army? ”
Yan Jingshan was originally a swordsman in the rivers and lakes, even if he had been the commander of the Imperial Forest Army for so many years, he still had an indelible gangsterism on his body.
Wang Xiangda was reluctant to deal with Yan Jingshan: "The hero of the Tiger Thorn Army is worthy of receiving a reward from the imperial court, if he hides in Beijing, I am afraid he will have a heart of disobedience!" Commander Yan should not mistake himself! ”
Yan Jingshan ignored it, he heard from his subordinates that the military department had the news of a tiger stabbing soldier, and he was afraid that he had returned to Beijing to be an undercover agent.
How could Yan Jingshan, as a general, not know about the dirty affairs of the military department?
Yan Jingshan was furious, and immediately reported to the emperor, asking for orders to personally bring back the soldiers of the Tiger Thorn Army, so as not to interfere with the military department.
If that person was really a spy of Northern Liao, Yan Jingshan would personally behead him.
The emperor granted Yan Jingshan's request, and Zhao Qi did not have the slightest doubt about Yan Jingshan's loyalty.
And Yan Jingshan's martial arts, there is no need to worry.
When Butcher Shen assassinated Wen Wuzhen, everyone thought that the emperor sent the great eunuch Ren Shizhong to protect Wen Wuzhen, because the emperor favored his courtiers too much.
Zhao Qi is not a fool, he takes his safety very seriously.
The one who guarded him in the palace that night was Yan Jingshan.
On the rivers and lakes, there is no ranking of martial arts.
But everyone has a pair of eyes, they judge for themselves.
Wu Chang is the heaven of the entire rivers and lakes.
And Yan Jingshan is the group of people in the sky, closest to the sky.
If you want to count the rivers and lakes, the Hua Dynasty and the Southern Xu and even the Northern Yan are all about the same.
Everyone is born under the same sky, and the gap between each person is not too big.
A master's move, in a trance, can take people's lives.
But Wu Chang is not, he is the sky!
There is a huge gap between everyone and Wu Chang, and Northern Liao once had a list of masters on the rivers and lakes.
Hu Yansheng, the warrior who is the first on the master list, came to the Hua Dynasty to challenge Wu Chang.
As a result, because of his disrespect for Chen Niantao between words, he was beheaded by Wu Chang with a sword.
No one dares to confront Wu Chang head-on.
However, Yan Jingshan dares!
Among them, there is no lack of courage with him, but it is not enough to have courage.
There is also the confidence of the long knife in the opponent.
He was confident that with Wu Chang taking care of his wife, he would not lose within a hundred cuts.
Of course, after a hundred knives, there is death and no life!
Ten years ago, there was no name on the rivers and lakes, but he was still the strongest person in the capital.
Yan Jingshan looked at the five hundred guards of the City Defense Division in front of him, and his eyes glared at these disheveled soldiers and said, "How can there be any of my tiger stabbing soldiers in this group of pickled goods?" Wang Xiangda, if you don't give an explanation to the old man today, the old man will definitely behead you under the horse! ”
Wang Xiangda snorted coldly: "Of course they won't be here, now they are probably on the way to flee outside Beijing." ”
Zheng Bin stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang is right, Ben Jiang just got the news, the Tiger Thorn soldier is already on the way to escape, and Ben Jiang is about to pursue." ”
Wang Xiangda said: "That's fine, Commander Yan, you and I will be here for a while, and I think General Zheng will bring people back." ”
Yan Jingshan said: "The prince's people, the old man can't believe it!" The old man still went to chase it in person, and the city defense department gave way! ”
Five hundred royal forest soldiers rushed to the war horse of the city defense division, Zheng Bin's face was pale, and he watched the war horse being captured by the imperial forest army.
The shadow of a man, the name of a tree.
Yan Jingshan's three words are not something that he can provoke as a small general guarding the city.
It is even more taboo to use force against the Imperial Forest Army in the capital.
Yan Jingshan waved his horsewhip and shouted, and the soldiers defending the city spread out uncontrollably to both sides, making way for a road.
Yan Jingshan waved his hand, and the Imperial Forest soldiers shouted loudly and ran out of the city, leaving a trail of smoke and dust behind the horse's buttocks.
Zheng Bin's face was a little ugly: "Lord Wang, this Yan Jingshan is really too deceitful. ”
"The Military Horse City Defense Division still has it, so why don't you let him go first?"
Zheng Bin nodded, and soon sent someone to prepare three hundred war horses.
Yan Jingshan followed the marks left by the spies along the road and ran wildly all the way.
According to Zheng Bin, Li Yan and the three of them had just been out of the city for an hour, and they would definitely not be able to escape at this time.
As soon as he thought of Li Yan, Yan Jingshan's heart began to beat a drum, and he still remembered that Li Yan stopped Wu Chang and the Imperial Forest Army by himself.
He didn't feel grateful to Li Yan, on the contrary, he was still a little afraid.
Yan Jingshan had already thought in his heart that once Li Yan made any moves, he would kill him as soon as possible.
He knows very well, just as he knows that he can't beat Wu Chang, he can't fight Li Yan!
His lieutenant rode his horse quickly, but as he rode it, he noticed that something was wrong.
Yan Jingshan looked at the water stains on the horse road and was secretly frightened.
These water stains are all saliva from the war horse under the crotch!
Yan Jingshan immediately stopped the team, and everyone dismounted.
By this time, all the horses had become languishing.
Yan Jingshan soon discovered that there was a strange fragrance in the air.
Li Yan is a doctor and Taoist, and it is Li Yan's hands and feet to think that the war horse and the strange fragrance are the hands and feet of Li Yan.
Yan Jingshan didn't dare to be careless at all, although he and his subordinates are not abnormal now, it doesn't mean that there are no hidden dangers.
For a while, Yan Jingshan didn't dare to chase after him anymore.
The wind slowly blew on the mountain road, and Li Yan frowned.
After the wind picks up, the lost horse incense attached to the road will be blown away quickly.
This incense has little effect on people, but it has a great effect on horses.
Horses will quickly die of dehydration after consuming this incense.
After being scattered in the wind, the potion is far less powerful, but it is enough to buy them some time.
But now, the wind is blowing.
The dirt on the ground was quickly tossed by the wind.
The very light weight of the lost horse incense was blown aside by the wind.
The war horse has not replied yet, and Yan Jingshan does not dare to chase it.
Behind him, Zheng Bin and Wang Xiangda rode all the way over.
Yan Jingshan did not stop them, and sent people to follow them.
Although Zheng Bin was curious about Yan Jingshan and the others stopping here, he didn't pay attention to it.
Zheng Bin ran away with the soldiers of the City Gate Division before the spies of the Royal Forest Army returned.
Yan Jingshan thought about it for a while, and knew that it was the north wind with a strange fragrance that blew away, and then summoned his subordinates to mount their horses and continue to chase forward.
It was getting darker and darker, and marching at night was a taboo.
Fortunately, it is not far from the capital, but fortunately, there are only three enemies.
Otherwise, even Yan Jingshan would not dare to risk the lives of five hundred imperial forest troops.
The lives of the Imperial Guards are not the same as those of the Castle Gate Division.
The people of the City Gate Division are the face of the country.
The people of the Royal Guards are the face of the royal family.
The emperor obviously took the latter more seriously.
After all, the face of the dynasty has been lost many times.
