Chapter 678: Pursuit (6)

It was the darkest hour before dawn, and there was silence all around. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

At the gate of the Feiwuman camp, several braziers were lit, and the flames fluttered and shook in the night wind, flickering and dimming.

A few brute soldiers stood there listlessly, their weapons and dozing.

Suddenly, they heard the sound of horses' hooves, and they looked up into the distance with sleepy eyes.

The shadow is longing, as if there is a figure shaking.

The barbarian soldier at the head rubbed his eyes and asked loudly, "What person?" ”

Before he could finish speaking, a bowstring sounded, and a sharp arrow flew out of the darkness, as fast as lightning, and struck the brute on the forehead.

The brute was driven by the force of the arrow, and fell to the ground.

At the same time, I could only hear someone shouting, "Rush with me!" ”

The sound of horses' hooves suddenly accelerated, and more than a hundred war horses rushed out of the darkness. The leader of the group, dressed in black, held a divine arm bow, and fired the bow left and right on the horse, and the arrows rained down. The arrow flew in such a way that it was almost impossible to dodge. Only a series of popping sounds could be heard, and the arrows struck a few brute soldiers outside the courtyard gate, and when they fell, the wind swept past them......

Daikin galloped, with a golden mane around his neck, flying in the night.

Yang Shouwen clasped his feet tightly in the stirrups, leaned forward slightly, put away the Divine Arm Bow, took out a jar from the pouch on the horse's back with his backhand, and then smashed it towards a brazier in the camp. With a snap, the jar smashed over the brazier and shattered when it fell to the ground. The fire oil that flowed out of it ignited when it caught fire, and it spread instantly.

Behind him, Tu Shanlong and Tu Shanbao also rushed into the camp with people and threw the canister of fire oil in their hands.

The originally quiet camp was instantly on fire.

Yang Shouwen ran wildly all the way, and after throwing all the fire oil in his pocket, he raised his hand and took off the Xuantie gun.

At this time, the entire camp of the Flying Barbarians seemed to be boiling.

Those barbarians who were sleeping were awakened by the fire, ran out in a hurry, and met Yang Shouwen and his party head-on.

It's just that they found that Yang Shouwen and his party seemed to be more terrifying than the raging fire.

Yang Shouwen had a black iron gun in one hand and a tile-faced gold mace in the other, and he killed people when he saw them, and the blood flowed like rivers everywhere he passed. And behind him, followed by a fierce Yang Jasmine. The two big mallets in their hands flew up, and the barbarians who only killed them flipped on their backs.

Tu Shanlong and Tu Shanbao each led fifty soldiers and followed Yang Shouwen and the two to rush and kill.

Seeing this, the unprepared brute tried to step forward to stop him, but he turned into a corpse and fell in a pool of blood.

"The three armies obey the order, follow me to chisel through!"

Yang Shouwen shouted on his horse, and the Xuantie spear swept through thousands of troops, knocking a barbarian general off his horse.

Yang Jasmine suddenly shouted with joy: "Chisel through!" “

His voice was like thunder, and he swung his hammer, and there was no enemy in front of his horse.

Under the leadership of these two people, the officers and soldiers were unstoppable and fought their way out, and soon rushed from one end of the camp to the other.

Behind him, there is a sea of fire!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Meng Kai was woken up in his sleep.

When he heard that someone had attacked the camp, he was shocked and rushed out of the tent with his hair scattered.

The camp has become a mess.

Many people shouted for the fire, while many more ran in all directions, mixed with shouts, cries, and noises......

"Where are the thieves? Where are the thieves? ”

Meng Kai asked loudly.

A barbarian general ran over and said, "King, that thief entered from the east gate and came out from the west gate, and has escaped without a trace!" ”

"What?"

Meng Kai was a little dazed, he glanced at the barbarian in confusion, "The thief has already left?" ”

"Exactly!"

The brute said: "Those thieves don't seem to have any intention of fighting, and after setting the fire, they killed them all the way...... Although the children tried desperately to stop them, the thieves were too fierce. When the last general arrived, the thief had already rushed out through the west gate and was nowhere to be seen. ”

Meng Kai stood with a knife in his hand, rubbing his face with one hand.

"Send people to strengthen the vigilance, others put out the fire, and count the damage."

The barbarian general took the order and left, and Meng Kai also walked two steps quickly, standing outside the big tent, looking around.

The camp has become a mess.

The wailing sound echoed in his ears, as well as the crying of the baby, which made Meng Kai upset for a while, but he didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, there were many people in the camp and there was a small river nearby, so by daybreak, the fire had been extinguished.

Black smoke billowed and the air was filled with the smell of charred corpses.

Meng Kai was in the big tent, listening to the reports of his subordinates, but his face became more and more ugly.

Yang Shouwen attacked the camp last night, burning more than a dozen grain trucks and killing three or four hundred people...... For a tribe with nearly 20,000 people, three or four hundred people is not too much, but those dozen or so grain trucks have suffered huge losses.

They had to travel long distances south, and they needed food and grass on the way.

Can ...... now

"So, those Tang dogs, just for a sneak attack?"

He couldn't understand Yang Shouwen's true intentions.

But after thinking about it, he decided to pull out the camp and continue to the south. Although he ambushed Li Qing and almost wiped out the soldiers and horses of Zizhou, it does not mean that there are no worries. How strong is Datang's military power? Meng Kai knew it.

The sneak attack in the early hours of the morning also illustrates this point.

The government will never let them leave easily, and will definitely try to stop them......

Therefore, Meng Kai felt that they had to pass through Jinzhou and enter the territory of Luzhou before the arrival of the official army!

"My lord, I was attacked last night, and I ran away with many horses.

If our baggage and chariots are not towed by horses, we are afraid that it will be difficult to move, what should we do? “

Meng Kai thought about it, and then said in a deep voice: "If the horse is gone, use the war horse to pull it, if the war horse is not enough, it will be drawn from the young and strong, and the manpower will be pulled." In short, we can't stay here, we must get out of here as soon as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night. “

Draw young and strong?

Come to think of it, it's a good idea.

The Feiwu barbarians have a large population, and it is a feasible plan to not be young and strong.

So, those barbarian generals left one after another, went to draw the young and strong, and prepared to go. It is conceivable that the transfer will inevitably lead to forced requisition. Originally, Fei Wuman was a little dissatisfied with leaving his homeland, but now he forcibly recruited young and strong, which caused many people to resist. In order to quell these rebellions, it will take a lot of effort and appeasement......

The group set off again, and it was already past the hour.

Last night's heavy rain did not make the weather cool and the sun was like fire, but gave people a feeling of hot and humid, which caused many people to be noisy and dissatisfied.

Previously, Meng Kai ambushed Li Qing, and the power of a complete victory could stabilize people's hearts.

But now, people are beginning to feel the danger, and they are beginning to sneak away along the way.

In this regard, Meng Kai did not show the slightest mercy.

As soon as they find someone running away, they will be killed on the spot.

Murderous means to calm the team for the time being. But within a dozen miles, the car and horse overturned......

It turned out that there were many potholes on the road.

As soon as the chariot accidentally fell into a pit, it immediately overturned and landed on the road.

"King, those pits have obviously only been dug up for a short time, and it is estimated that there are thieves in ambush ahead, what should we do?"

"Push the cart to the side of the road, and the baggage on the cart is transferred.

Send scouts to scout ahead, and mark traps if you encounter them...... Everyone should be more careful, Tang Dog is cunning, if you are not careful, you are afraid that you will be ambushed by them.

In addition, give me a flying crow to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. ”

In Meng Kai's hands, there are more than ten flying black gray falcons, which have been taken care of by special personnel.

Originally, he didn't plan to let Feiwu reconnoitre, because he had already lost a lot of money some time ago, which made Meng Kai very heartbroken.

But now, if there is no gray falcon reconnaissance, I am afraid that there will be an ambush!

In this way, the brigade marched slowly.

Meng Kai hadn't rested well last night, and by noon, the whole person looked listless, sat on the horse and began to nap.

He's already in his fifties!

At this time of the day, he had eaten a full meal and began to take a lunch break.

But nowadays, there are no conditions for a lunch break. Meng Kai had no choice but to fight hard and kept urging the team to speed up. But the problem is that people's hearts are a little fluctuating. Those ordinary people, who traveled long distances in this weather, were already miserable.

Although Meng Kai kept urging, the speed did not improve much.

He also felt helpless, knowing that in this way, this trip would be delayed a lot......

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It's getting late.

Night was approaching, but the weather was still sweltering.

After a day's trek, Fei Wuman had traveled only forty miles, and he was already sleepy and tired, and he could no longer walk.

Seeing this situation, Meng Kai had no choice but to order to camp and rest on the spot.

When the people heard that they could rest, they immediately burst into cheers. Those who bury pots and cook make rice, and those who set up tents set up tents.

There are many people who are so tired that they really don't want to move, so they simply spread a straw mat under the tree and by the river, and fall asleep.

Meng Kai was also tired, but he still persevered, and took a dozen of his sons to patrol the camp.

"King, during the day, we released three flying crows, only one came back, and two were no trace."

Meng Kai frowned, took a sip of wine, and looked worried.

"It seems that those Tang dogs are afraid that they have the means to deal with Feiwu...... In this way, there is no need to let Feiwu reconnoiter tomorrow and send more scouts. The number of Tang Dogs is not large, it is estimated that after those rout troops gathered, they wanted to come and take revenge on us.

Don't leave them alone, just strengthen your vigilance and don't let them sneak up again......

Everyone has a good rest tonight, and set off early tomorrow morning, and be sure to arrive at the pass of Posa Mountain before dark. “

"I'll wait, I understand!"

After arranging everything, Meng Kai walked out of the big tent.

He was too sleepy, so he was ready to find a place to get some sleep. However, before leaving, he still left his two sons on duty in the big tent, and once something happened, it would not be a group of dragons without a leader and a mess. From this point of view, Meng Kai can be regarded as cautious.

Lying down in a ventilated and cool place, Meng Kai soon fell asleep.

In fact, not only Meng Kai, but also many people went to bed early after they fell......

No way, it was too noisy last night! I slept late, but then I was first made a fuss, and then there was a fire, and I tossed it until dawn. In addition, the weather today is hot and humid, which is unbearable, so many people are so tired that they don't even want to talk. Of course, due to yesterday's attack, Meng Kai also strengthened his vigilance before going to bed......

The night is getting thicker and thicker.

In the camp of the flying barbarians, there was the sound of snoring one after another, and the people slept so soundly.

When it was about time to arrive, a rapid war drum suddenly sounded, rumbling, and the drum shook the sky.

Meng Kai opened his eyes suddenly, sat up suddenly, and picked up the big knife in his hand.

"Damn Tang dog, you want to sneak attack again?"

He let out a roar of rage, got up and led his horse from the side, and rolled over and stepped on.

At the same time, many of the barbarians were also awakened, and they shouted and rushed out of the gate, one by one, as if they were fierce and vicious.

"Where is the Don Dog, where is the Don Dog?"

In the camp, the lights are bright.

Meng Kai led his troops to rush out of the gate and look around.

The barbarian soldiers on duty outside the door looked dazed, and when they heard Meng Kai's inquiry, they replied: "King, I haven't seen any Tang Dog appear." ”

"Where did the drum come from?"

"I don't know...... What are we looking for too? ”

When Meng Kai heard this, he couldn't help but grit his teeth. By this time, the drums of war had disappeared, and there was silence around the camp.

"Search for me!"

Meng Kai shouted sharply.

"Wait, King!"

A young man stepped forward and stopped Meng Kai.

His name is Meng Yuan, he is Meng Kai's son, and he is very much loved by Meng Kai.

"Father, just now I heard the sound of the drums, and there seem to be a lot of people...... If you go out rashly, you are afraid that you will be ambushed, so you must not be impulsive. ”

"So what do you say?"

"Father, Tang Gou has played this trick five times, but he didn't dare to show up, which means that they don't have many troops, and they don't dare to confront us head-on. Since this is the case, he ordered the children to be more vigilant, and it is expected that they will not dare to come and disturb them. ”

Meng Kai couldn't help but nod when he heard this.

At that moment, he ordered the vigilance to be strengthened, and returned to the camp with the people.

No enemy sneak attack?

Do the Tang people only dare to harass with this kind of trick?

Seeing this, the Feiwu barbarians also breathed a sigh of relief, and after inspecting the camp, they returned to their residences to rest......

Meng Kai sat in the big tent and talked to Meng Yuan and Meng He's two sons.

The three of them chatted like this, and when they were ugly, there was no more movement, and Meng Kai gradually couldn't stand it anymore.

"Father, why don't you continue to rest, here I and Meng He are on duty, and it is expected that the Tang dog will not succeed in the sneak attack."

Meng Yuan is cautious, Meng He is brave, and they are also Meng Kai's two most trusted sons.

He thought about it for a while, then agreed to the two of them, got up and left the big tent, and went to rest...... And Meng Yuan and Meng He continued to stay in the big tent.

The camp, which was still noisy just a moment ago, gradually returned to calm.

A petite figure emerged from the dark shadows of the camp.

She was dressed as a brute, holding a spear taller than him in her hand, but carrying a black package on her back.

Thirty paces from the tent, she stopped and leaned against a large tree to observe.

Seeing that there was no one around the big tent, she immediately put her spear flat on the ground, and her body was like a civet cat, and in the blink of an eye she was outside the big tent, hiding in the shadows.

She listened intently to the movement in the tent, but remained motionless.

About half an hour had passed, and the rumbling of Tensuke's war drums outside the camp seemed to be louder than the previous one.

Meng He heard the sound of drums in the big tent and was immediately furious.

"Damn Tang dog, he will only play this trick, and he will fight me face to face."

As he spoke, he strode out.

Meng Yuan also stood up and said with a smile: "The more Tang people are like this, the more it shows that they have no confidence and can only use this kind of ......"

He followed Meng He out of the big tent, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw a black shadow flashing, and his heart was suddenly shocked. Meng Yuan opened his mouth to shout, but before he could speak, a cold light passed in front of his eyes. The cold blade slit his throat. He tried to speak, but his mouth was open, but he couldn't make a sound, and all he could hear was the sound of blood spurting out of his throat like a blood mist...... I don't know why, when Meng Yuan heard that voice, he felt that it was wonderful! (To be continued.) )
