Section 195 Obstruction
There is one in forty cities in Yanmen County, where should Yang Guang be now?
Xiao Buyi's mind flickered, and he asked in an instant: "How many largest cities are there in Yanmen County?" ”
"Laoxian and Yanmen."
"Let's go to Lao County first." Xiao Buyi knew that time was urgent, and he couldn't afford to have too many choices. He personally ran from the Purple River, knowing that on the way south from the Purple River, the Turkic soldiers were in an endless stream like ants, and now the border has been too peaceful, and Yang Guang is bent on attacking Goryeo, and the border does not pay attention to it, but is afraid of being attacked by the Turkic soldiers and crushed for thousands of miles.
Fang Wuregret nodded, said no more, and rode his horse to take the lead and gallop eastward. When Xiao Buyi arrived in Mayi, it was almost night, and it took some time to order to defend the city, and it was already late when he left the city.
The lights behind him were brilliant, but they were gradually moving away, and finally completely disappeared into darkness.
After walking for less than a few miles, he had already reached a forest, and Fang Wuregret pointed out: "My lord, after this forest, there is a path over the mountains to reach Lao County, but the road is rugged and not easy to walk. ”
"But it doesn't matter." Xiao Buyi said without hesitation.
Fang Wuregret no longer hesitated, the horse marched forward, Xiao Buyi followed closely, the two of them walked in the forest, Fang Wuregret in front suddenly screamed, and even the people led the horse to the ground. Xiao Buyi was slightly startled, but the moonlight hissed, jumped up in the air, and jumped straight forward.
Xiao Buyi was on the horse, and he had already found a very thin rope between the two trees, which was difficult to see with the naked eye. Fang Wuregret didn't pay attention, he was tripped by people and horses, but the moonlight was very Ling, he jumped into the air, and he had already crossed the tripping rope, and when he landed, there was a hula sound, and a big pit appeared behind him.
Xiao Buyi instantly understood that someone had set up a stumbling rope here, and he was afraid that the horse would jump, so he dug a big pit in front of him, which can be seen in the depth of his scheming. It's just that the calculating person has made a lot of calculations, but he didn't calculate that the moonlight god is very handsome, and he is much farther than an ordinary horse in one jump.
The figures on both sides of the forest are ghostly, the spear is pierced, and Xiao Buyi's horse is fetched, Xiao Buyi's spear in his hand is swinging, and the spear has been blocked, and the man and the horse are piercing out of the woods, and the sound of the horse's hooves is far away, and I don't know where to go in a blink of an eye.
The two people who came out were armed with spears, both of them stomped their feet, and said hatefully: "Let him go." ”
Fang Wuregret fell not lightly, his nose was blue and his face was swollen, and when he saw the two of them coming over with spears, he shouted loudly, and pulled out his knife and cut it. The two snorted coldly, and the spears staggered out, one spear pressed Fang Wuregret's single knife, and the other spear pointed at his chest.
"Where are you going?"
Fang Wuregret was pressed against his chest, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know." ”
As soon as the tip of the man's gun was sent, he stabbed half a minute into Fang Wuregret's chest, and blood flowed, "If you don't say it, you'll die." ”
Fang Wuregret suddenly laughed, spat heavily, and shouted, "You are still not human? Lao Tzu is a small soldier, but he also knows that the Turkic soldiers are coming to save the country and report the news, but you miscellaneous people are ......"
A person next to him punched Fang Wuregret's lower abdomen hard, and sneered: "I'll make your mouth hard, I'll ask you one more ......"
"No need to ask," a voice came from behind the two of them, "and ask me." ”
Xiao Buyi said eight words, and the two of them had already made at least three moves backwards. Xiao Buyi just stretched out his hand, and he had already knocked on the back of a person's head, and the person staggered out a move and fainted to the ground. The other person had a big chill in his heart, and the two tricks failed, but Xiao Buyi grabbed the collar and slapped him a few times, "Fang Wuregret is right, you are just miscellaneous!" ”
Xiao Buyi's hand was extremely heavy, and after several slaps, the man's face was already swollen like a pig's head.
Fang Wuregret saw Xiao Buyi turn around, and as soon as he made a move, he grabbed the two of them, and his spirits were greatly lifted. Before he was about to struggle to stand up, he suddenly shouted loudly: "Be careful......"
Before Fang Wuregret's words fell, Xiao Buyi had already rushed over, grabbed Fang Wuregret, and rushed forward with all his strength. A cold light flashed behind him, and all of them fell on the two assassins, and after hearing only a scream, the sound of the rope in the forest was far away.
Xiao Buyi walked back slowly, looked at the two people on the ground, and saw that each of them had been hit by a few flying knives, and they had already died. The praying mantis catches the cicada, the yellow finch is behind, Xiao Buyi and the horse rushed out of the forest, but he slapped the horse to let the moonlight go away, and he turned back silently, and when he captured the two assassins, he didn't expect that the other party was thoughtful, and there were masters hidden.
The master's goal was to kill people, and after killing the assassin, he drifted away, and seemed to know that he couldn't stop Xiao Buyi.
"Lord Xiao, it's all my mistake, otherwise you ......" Fang Wu regretted and shamelessly embarrassment.
Xiao Buyi waved his hand, "It doesn't matter if he kills people or not, see if your horse can still run?" ”
Fang Wuregret didn't understand the deep meaning of Xiao Buyi's words, but he hurried to look at his horse and said in surprise: "My lord, it's okay, the horse is not injured." ”
Xiao Buyi nodded out of the forest, pursed his lips and made a whistle, a loud whistle sounded, and the moonlight rushed out of the darkness, which made Fang Wuregret envious.
Fang Wuregret continued to lead the way, but he was more cautious. Xiao Buyi followed behind him, but he was full of doubts. Fang Wuregret may not know who the killer is, but Xiao Buyi can't help but target some people. He traveled all the way from Zihe to Mayi, and of course it was impossible for the Turks to intercept him, and the only person who could and had the opportunity to intercept him was in the city of Mayi.
He quietly turned around just to see if Fang Wuregret was involved, but it turned out that Fang Wuregret was still a man, but the result also proved that he guessed correctly, some people didn't want him to ventilate the news, and in Xiao Buyi's mind, there was no one else except Liu Wuzhou in Xiao Buyi's mind.
This can also explain why he couldn't find Liu Wuzhou in Mayi City, maybe because Liu Wuzhou didn't want to come to see him at all! That master is not bad at martial arts, or is it also Liu Wuzhou himself?
Xiao Buyi is on the horse, after dismantling the mystery, it is not easy, but it is even heavier, if Liu Wuzhou obstructs himself from informing Yang Guang, then will the post officer he sent also be robbed and killed, Liu Wuzhou deliberately intercepted him to report the news, from a closer point, that is, he wants Yang Guang to die, but from a far-reaching point of view, it is possible that he has already colluded with the Turks!
In the early morning of the second day, Xiao Buyi and Fang Wuregret had already arrived in Lao County.
The county town of Guo is tall and majestic, calm and calm, and there are no Turkic soldiers, which makes Xiao Buyi put down his thoughts slightly, but Fang Wuregret suddenly exclaimed: "Lord Xiao, look! ”
Xiao Buyi was shocked when he heard his voice, and looked awe-inspiring at the north he pointed, it was still early at the moment, and the end did not come out, the sky was originally the color of dawn, but at this time, the bottom was already burning with a layer of red that was more than the morning glow. On top of the red, there is a constant condensation of black dust, and the teeth and claws are like demons.
Did the Turks set fire to the city? Xiao Buyi's heart trembled slightly, and he didn't know what it tasted like. Yanmen County is now under the iron cavalry of the Turkic soldiers, and the Turkic soldiers are not subject to control, so it is inevitable to burn and plunder, and the people are miserable, but this arson, Yang Guang also has a hundred people around him, should be vigilant, right?
He went south on horseback, of course, much faster than the Turkic soldiers burning, killing, and plundering, but the Turkic soldiers fought quickly, and this moment would definitely not be too far away.
When the horse arrived at the gate of Laoxian County, Xiao Buyi shouted loudly: "Listen to the guards at the city gate, Xiao Buyi, the servant and young secretary, is here, may I ask if the holy driver is there?" ”
The city gate was closed, and the city soldiers looked down from the battlements and shouted: "Vulna Turkic soldiers, do you want to deceive us? ”
Xiao Buyi frowned, and said in his heart that he had forgotten to remove this outfit, but he had caused too much unexpected trouble.
In addition to the Turkic outfit, Xiao Buyi showed a tight-fitting outfit and said sharply: "The military situation is urgent, I can only obey the power, if the holy driver is here, please go and inform me quickly, just say that the servant Shaoqing Xiao Buyi asks to see him." If you delay the military situation, I'm afraid that you won't be able to cut off ten heads. ”
Seeing that the city gate here was closed and the security was much stricter than that of other cities, Xiao Buyi felt that Yang Guang was likely to be here. He said no, he could only use words to force him.
The city soldiers hesitated, one of them had already gone down the city, but the other shouted loudly: "Wait, someone has gone to inform the king of Qi." ”
Xiao Buyi frowned, King Qi? That's Yang Guang's second son, I saw him in Fushun Hall last time, he was arrogant, why is he here?
"Is the Holy Driver here?"
"How can I tell you this!" The city soldiers were confident.
Xiao Buyi pondered for a moment, then suddenly turned his head and said, "Fang has no regrets, along the way, I know that you are a man." ”
Fang Wuregret's tears almost flowed, "Lord Xiao has a word, and he will die without regrets." ”
"There's a mission right now that is likely to kill you, I wonder if you can do it?"
"Lord Xiao commanded, no regrets and no resignation." Although Fang Wuregret and Xiao Buyi were only friends for half a day, but along the way, he saw Xiao Buyi doing things righteously, running around and working hard, and he had long admired it in his heart, thinking that he was an ordinary soldier and would not have anything to do in his life, but he didn't expect that there would finally be a vigorous day.
"I always feel that the holy driver is not in Lao County, but I can only wait." Xiao Buyi sighed softly, "Yanmen City is not far from here, and I don't know if the outpost has a war situation, but for the sake of safety, now I want you to go to Yanmen to deliver the message quickly." It's just that you are likely to be misunderstood, or you may be killed. ”
He didn't say why there was a murder, Fang Wuregret didn't ask, he immediately straightened up, and a smile appeared on his face, "Lord Xiao, people will always die, don't be afraid without regrets." ”
Xiao Buyi nodded, "No regrets, I didn't say anything wrong, if you are really a man, then I hope we will see you again in Yanmen." ”
Fang Wuregret urged the horse to run a few steps in the direction of Yanmen, and suddenly turned around and asked, "Lord Xiao, can I make a request." ”
"You say."
"If you don't die without regrets, you don't want to be added to the rank in the future, you just want to be able to follow Lord Xiao." Fang asked expectantly.
Xiao Buyi smiled and nodded, "If I don't die, there will definitely be no problems." ”
Fang Wuregret was in high spirits in an instant, patted the horse and ran in the direction of Yanmen, Xiao Buyi saw him go away, and said softly: "Good man." ”
Fang Wu regretted leaving, there was still no movement at the city gate, Xiao Buyi wanted to urge again, and there was a sudden sound of laughter from the city gate tower, "It turned out that it was really the servant Shaoqing who arrived, I thought that the city soldiers were lying to me, and I was still heavily responsible." ”
Xiao Buyi looked up and saw Yang Yun standing in the city gate tower, dressed in gorgeous clothes, arrogant and chic. He and Yang Jun really only had a one-sided relationship, and they didn't know each other, but he didn't expect Yang Jun to recognize him.
"May I ask King Qi, is the holy car here?" Xiao Buyi said loudly: "The 400,000 Turkic soldiers have invaded the territory, and they have now gone down to the Purple River, and now I am afraid that they have already entered Yanmen County, and I also ask the Holy Lord to prepare early." ”
"400,000 Turkic soldiers?" Yang Jun pretended to be surprised and said, "Has Xiao Shaoqing counted them one by one?" ”
Xiao Buyi was stunned, and the soldiers around Yang Jun all laughed, and Yang Jun said loudly: "Lord Xiao didn't wake up from a hangover last night, is he talking nonsense today?" My Great Sui and the Turks have always been good friends, and this time the Holy Lord personally went out on patrol and gave marriage and auspiciousness, and the Turks should be grateful to Dai De, how could they send troops south, it is simply nonsense. ”
Xiao Buyi frowned, stretched out his hand and pointed to the north and said, "King Qi, the war in the north has appeared, do you also turn a blind eye?" ”
It's just that at this moment, the sky is red again, the smoke in the sky is heavier, and even the tremor of hooves on the ground can be faintly perceived. King Qi said indifferently: "This must be just an occasional fire in the northern village, I think Xiao Shaoqing is really making a fuss." Xiao Shaoqing didn't go to the Turks to be a marriage envoy, how could he suddenly find that the Turks were going south, and the 400,000 army was going south, so that Xiao Shaoqing could turn around with a single horse, is it a repetition of the scene of the savior riding alone? ”
He said it easily, and he didn't take the war in his eyes at all, Xiao Buyi's heart sank, and he said slowly: "King Qi, Xiao Buyi is loyal to the Great Sui, and he has traveled thousands of miles to return the letter, but I didn't expect the King of Qi to doubt it again and again." It's okay for the King of Qi to be suspicious, but the military situation is urgent, and the Turks are heading south, and their spirit is in full swing......"
"Could it be that Xiao Shaoqing thinks that you are the only one in the world who can fight against the Turkic soldiers?" Yang Xuan sneered: "If the Turkic soldiers don't come, it's enough, if they come, I can also let them return." ”
"Where is the Holy One?" Xiao Buyi forcibly suppressed his anger, and wanted to stab this Qi king to death with a spear. Suddenly, there was a pang in his heart, no matter how this King of Qi looked, he didn't look like an idiot, even if he was jealous of his own merits, but the Turkic soldiers went south, how could he joke with his surname?
"Xiao Shaoqing has traveled thousands of miles, and now he must be tired." Yang Xuan waved his hand and said, "Open the city gate and invite Xiao Shaoqing into the city." ”
The city gate opened, but Xiao Buyi held his spear tightly, and two teams of cavalry came out of the city, all of them with bright armor, holding spears and shields, and they were actually guarding him, as if he was an enemy.
Xiao Buyi knew that something was wrong, but he still calmed down, and one of the officers led by him said, "Lord Xiao, please dismount and abandon the spear." ”
Xiao Buyi immediately stood still, "What to do?" ”
"There is the king of Qi in the city, we are only afraid that there will be annihilation mixed in and the king of Qi will be injured by mistake." The officer is colored.
Xiao Buyi laughed angrily, "Do you think I'm a Jianxi?" ”
The officer's face remained unchanged, "This is just a routine matter, and I ask Lord Xiao not to embarrass his subordinates." ”
Yang Juncheng said in a loud voice: "Xiao Buyi, if you have a clear conscience, why don't you dismount and abandon your spear to be examined?" If you don't dismount and lose your sword, but you have a ghost in your heart? ”
The officer and the soldiers slowly stepped forward, Xiao Buyi picked up the spear, and suddenly it was horizontal, and everyone couldn't help but rein in their horses and retreated, which showed that they were also very afraid of Xiao Buyi.
Xiao Buyi laughed loudly: "What a ghost in his heart, Xiao Buyi consciously has a clear conscience, but Zhao Yueyue, when he heard that the Turkic soldiers were going south, he went thousands of miles to report the news, but he didn't expect to get a ghost in his heart." Whether you believe it or not, this fire burns through half the sky, and the smoke is not fake. King Qi turned a blind eye and just wanted to capture me, I'm just afraid that it is not Xiao Buyi who has a ghost in my heart, but His Royal Highness the King of Qi, right? ”
He said loudly, all the soldiers changed their faces, and the King of Qi on the city tower turned pale, and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Buyi is a big rebel, he is a rebel, he is a troublemaker, and he is a small annihilator sent by the Turks, will you wait to capture it and wait for it to fall?!" ”
As soon as he gave the order, all the soldiers stepped forward and surrounded Xiao Buyi, Xiao Buyi sneered: "King Qi also said that the Great Sui and the Turks are friendly, and at this moment I will become a Turkic annihilator, don't you feel contradictory?" The king of Qi turned a blind eye to the southward movement of the Turkic soldiers, could it be said that it was not Xiao Buyi who colluded with the Turks, but His Royal Highness the King of Qi? ”
Yang Yun said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze, Xiao Buyi rebelled, and he didn't take it yet." If there is resistance, it will not be counted. ”
All the soldiers did not hesitate any longer, shouted in unison, several people had already stabbed with spears, Xiao Buyi's spears shook, and several spears had already flown into the air. Everyone knew Xiao Buyi's divine martial arts, and they also heard that he had captured Prince Mogud on his own, and they had long been afraid, and when they saw him pick out the spears of several people with one shot, they couldn't help but retreat.
Xiao Buyi took advantage of this kung fu and jumped out of the circle surrounded by the soldiers, but he just knocked the stirrup, and the person was already a few feet away. The officer was shocked, he didn't expect Xiao Buyi to react so quickly, and shouted loudly: "Release the arrow!" ”
The soldiers all pulled their bows, and the feather arrows swished out, some of them were very accurate, and some of them were already crooked, obviously they didn't want to be the murderer of Xiao Buyi. Xiao Buyi's words came down, all the soldiers are not fools, they have long doubts, the smoke has risen in the distance, it is definitely a sign that a large group of soldiers and horses are coming, King Qi turned a deaf ear, what is the reason?
Xiao Buyi's horse was fast, even faster than the speed of a long arrow, and before the soldier could draw his bow and shoot the second round of arrows, he had already traveled a long way, and after a while, he disappeared.
Yang Yuncheng saw Xiao Buyi fleeing without a trace upstairs, and couldn't help but stomp his feet and scolded: "There is no thing, can't hundreds of people catch a single Xiao Buyi?" ”
An officer beside him said in a low voice: "King Qi, I'm just afraid that Xiao Buyi will go to Yanmen City." ”
Yang Jian instantly calmed down, "Liu Fan, then what should we do?" ”
Liu Fan gritted his teeth and said: "King Qi, if you don't do it, you won't stop it, we might as well ...... like this" He said a few words in Yang Jun's ear, Yang Yun frowned and said: "Is this plan feasible, or we still rush to Yanmen City, and tell my father that the Turkic soldiers are coming......"
"I'm afraid it's too late," Liu Fan shook his head and said: "King Qi, the 400,000 soldiers of Shibi Khan are coming, Xiao Buyi must die, otherwise it may be us who suffer." ”
Yang Yun finally made up his mind, "Okay, everything will be done according to your idea, Liu Fan, I will hand over the task of getting rid of Xiao Buyi to you, you don't have to live up to my trust." ”
**Xiao Buyi immediately galloped, anxious.
Lao County to Yanmen City is only a few dozen miles away, he identified the direction of galloping, to the Yanmen City when approaching, only to see the front of the Yanmen City black pressure crowd, spears, blades cold, all kinds of banners hunting and hunting, quite prestigious. The team gathered in front of the city in order, there were tens of thousands of people, his eyes were keen, he found that there was something hanging on the city gate, and ran closer, only to find that it seemed to be a person!
Xiao Buyi was very sad in his heart, knowing that it was very likely that Fang Wu regretted, and he didn't know if he was dead. The galloping horses were flying, and in a moment they were already closer to the army.
Before he could continue to move forward, there was a sudden drumbeat in the military formation, and the phalanx was separated from the two wings like waves, and a prancing horse and a horizontal spear came out first, and the sword, axe, archers, and shield soldiers around him came out in a row, and the sharp arrows were wound, and the shields were numerous. It seems that Xiao Buyi took a few steps forward, and if he didn't ask the comer, he would be killed.
Xiao Buyi couldn't restrain his horse, and his luck shouted: "Xiao Buyi, the servant and young secretary, has an urgent military situation." ”
When he shouted out, the three armies shook, and they all heard it clearly, if Yang Guang was here, there was no reason why he couldn't hear it. He ran closer, only to see that the front was densely packed with soldiers, but he couldn't see whether Yang Guang was in the army.
The general was slightly stunned, stepped forward with a gun, looked at Xiao Buyi carefully, and said in surprise: "Xiao Shaoqing, it's really you?" ”
"You are?" Xiao Buyi saw that the man's face was like a heavy jujube, with gray hair, and he immediately lost his vigor and neatness, but he had never seen it.
"General Youyiwei is here to protect your child!"
Xiao Buyi is slightly cold, when he was in the Eastern Capital, he often heard about the deeds of Laihu'er, this person has been an important minister of the two dynasties, has always been favored by the saint, every time he attacks Goryeo, he can be counted as a share, I heard that this person is not greedy for money and not lustful, Xiao Buyi wanted to accept when he was in the Eastern Capital, but at that time he was sent out by Yang Guang to suppress bandits, until he left, he did not see the turn, but I didn't expect to see him today.
Lai Hu'er's tone was different, what is really you, it was very strange, Xiao Buyi saw the formation in the army, and saw that General Youyiwei was here, and he was sure that Yang Guang must still be in Yanmen, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, there was a wry smile in his heart, he came all the way, it seemed that he was for the safety of the people, but he was also a little worried about Yang Guang's life and death, which seemed to be a bit incredible in the past. Yang Guang's surname is capricious, but he is worried about his surname, is it because of his relationship with Queen Xiao?
The spear was hung in the saddle, Xiao Buyi jumped off the horse, and said with a deep salute: "Come general, the Turkic army of 400,000 has gone south, and now it has entered the Yanmen ......"
Before he finished speaking, Lai Hu'er exclaimed, "That Fang Wuregret said that you sent him, could it be that what he said turned out to be true?" ”
Xiao Buyi turned his head to look north, only to see that the red mixed with black dust was heavy again, and he knew that the Turkic soldiers were close again, so he hurriedly explained the situation. After all, Lai Hu'er is experienced, and he will not be as sneering as Ma Yi Chengbing or Yang Jun, and followed Xiao Buyi to the north, his face changed slightly.
"I also think there is something strange about this smoke and dust, the envoy said that most of the villages were on fire, and General Yuwen also thought so. In order to be safe, I just want to find out the news, and then the saint was urged by the envoys to be anxious, insisted on going north, and came to report the news without regrets, but General Yuwen said that it was a lie to confuse the public, and he was hung in the city gate tower and only waited for the march to be executed. I hesitated, but the spy didn't turn around, it's really a strange thing, if it's really as Shaoqing said, then we really fell for the trick of the envoy. ”
When he said this, he frowned and said, "Xiao Shaoqing, go with me to see the Holy Lord." ”
Xiao Buyi said urgently: "Come general, the enemy army can arrive at any time, in order to avoid chaos, please return to the city and prepare to hold on." ”
Laihu'er nodded, and the military order had been passed down, and the queue returned to the city. The team of soldiers did not know why, but they still listened to the general's orders to return to the city, and Xiao Buyi and Laihu'er came to the rear army and had the opportunity to meet Yang Guang. Seeing where Yang Guang was, Xiao Buyi was stunned, and only felt that the place where Yang Guang was sitting looked like a car and a small-scale city.
Yang Guang and Empress Xiao sat side by side, he was surrounded by a forest of gun carts, the wheels were facing outward, the inside was covered with thistles, and the crossbow bed was also installed on the car, the steel cone was inserted upside down, and there were short arrows that could shoot outside the crossbow arrows, and the whole cart was arranged like a hedgehog.
It's just that he didn't have time to surprise Yang Guang's vigilance, and came to Hu'er to pull Xiao Buyi to pay homage, but Yang Guang in the car said angrily: "Come to Hu'er, what are you going to do?" If you don't have my orders, how can you turn around without permission? Hey, Xiao Buyi, why are you back? ”
