Sun Kang tilted his head, wanting to ask the lame middle-aged man beside him. Unexpectedly, at a glance, the middle-aged man beside him, unexpectedly, had begun to retreat at some point!

"Retreat!"

The middle-aged man whispered.

"What?"

Sun Kang didn't hear this sentence clearly.

"Retreat!"

This time, the lame middle-aged man came out with a roar. Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man jumped up from the ground and ran wildly towards the rear. Dozens of his followers, all of whom have learned and learned, have spread their feet and ran!

At this time, even if Sun Kang was Zaimu, he reacted. He learned to be lame and middle-aged, turned around and ran, and shouted as he ran:

"Withdraw! Evacuate! We've got it! ”

Under Sun Kang, many people showed hesitation. This kind of behavior of fleeing in embarrassment before encountering the face of the enemy is not the practice of a hero. However, some people who are a little more clever immediately explain to their companions:

"Boss Sun (Sun Guan) sneaked into the dock fort from the tunnel! It stands to reason that the fire should be lit first, and we should be informed to move forward, and then the city gate should be opened. Now there is no signal, and the city gate is opened silently, doesn't it mean that Boss Sun missed? ”

With such an explanation, everyone's blood and courage all subsided at once. The big guy secretly cursed the 'eldest grandson' (Sun Kang) in his heart, but he refused to stay where he was and wait for death, and immediately retreated in a swarm.

But is this approach suitable?

Rushing out of the dock fort, it was indeed not Sun Guan and the others, but a team of soldiers of the Tianping Army who were covered in armor and holding spears. These fighters move in an orderly manner, cooperate tacitly, and know at a glance that they are well-trained. The person at the head is not very old, but his expression is calm and resolute, and he has the style of an ancient general, and he is the first hundred people in the Tianping Army: Yu Ban, Yu Wenze!

In the face of the enemy's escape, Yu Ban pointed at the spear in his hand and shouted:

"Chase!"

So, this hundred-man team marched in a neat marching column, with five people in a row, in a column. What is surprising is that the sound of the footsteps landing in this team of hundreds of people can be clearly distinguished.

“…… Tread, tread, tread, tread......"

"Ghost ...... Hell ......"

In the chaos of wolves and pigs rushing forward, the footsteps in the rear sounded regularly, which made the rout soldiers who fell behind be heartbroken, thinking that they had encountered some ghosts and gods. The bold quickened their pace and fled, and the timid fell to their knees, trembling all over.

One side is fleeing with all his might, while the other side is pursuing in formation. In this case, the distance between the two sides is gradually widening. However, for this phenomenon, Yu Ban's face did not show anything.

The reason soon emerged. In front of these fleeing night raiders, a team of torches appeared!

Torches, of course, do not make these brave men despair. But there were people under the torches.

The number of people is not much, about fifty. This little bit of people will not make these soldiers despair. But under the man, there are horses!

"Mom! It's cavalry! ……”

"How so? …… Where did the cavalry come from......"

A neat row of crossbow arrows came and knocked over the seven or eight long-legged men running in front of them at once. A cavalryman led by him even urged the war horse under his crotch, raised his sword and fell, and cut down three rout soldiers who escaped from the crossbow arrows in a row!

The purple-gold "Battle Qi" lit up, reflecting the short stature of the knight on the horse. Under a full moon, the round head flew into the sky, splashing blood all over the sky, as if the knight in front of him was the embodiment of the evil ghost of the underworld. So much so that some of the more timid pawns were actually frightened and urinated, emitting bursts of unpleasant stench.

"Drop or not!"

Although Lejin is short in stature, he has a really good voice. By his roar, countless routs fell to their knees and shouted in unison:

"Surrender! Surrender! ……”

The voice of surrender was so loud that it was faintly heard at the head of the Dock Fort two miles away. Chen Deng picked up the delicate porcelain cup, gently took a sip of the tea in the cup, and said with a smile:

"Wuji is really clever, strategizing, and winning thousands of miles away. Congratulations! ”

"Yuanlong has won the prize! If it weren't for Yuanlong's hint, how could I have thought of being careful? ”

Zhang Yan also took a sip of tea in the porcelain cup and replied modestly.

Originally, it was a very strange thing that more than 300 stones of good salt were found in such a small dock fort. In addition, Chen Deng, who is the head snake in Xuzhou, obviously hinted during the meal that if he couldn't think of anything again, he was not worthy of making friends with Chen Deng.

Not to mention, Xie Xun, Master Tai, Yu Ban and others also took the opportunity to mention this to Zhang Qi.

Salt was a stuff sold by the government at that time. Ordinary powerful clans, although there will be some salt stored in the dock fort, it is impossible to store a few hundred stones at once.

What's more, these salt goods turned out to be quite good goods that even a powerful family like Chen Deng thought were quite good.

Therefore, arrogantly guessed that the owner of the dock fort was only afraid of being a smuggler of salt.

According to the Great Han Law, selling smuggled salt is a serious crime, which can range from imprisonment to beheading, depending on the severity of the circumstances. Therefore, if there is no strong force to sell illicit salt, it is simply giving money and life to others.

As a pseudo-history fan, Zhang Qiang has been mixed up in historical forums for many generations, and he still knows a little about the most powerful salt dealers in the world.

The Huang Chao who once wrote the poem "If I am the Green Emperor in his year, I will bloom with the peach blossoms", didn't he start as a salt dealer and wandered all the way to Chang'an City, the imperial capital of the Tang Dynasty, and beat the emperors of the Tang Dynasty to the desert and fled!

Thinking of this, Zhang Qiang felt that he seemed to have inadvertently caused a lot of trouble. Therefore, he immediately called Xie Xun's subordinate He Man and asked him to take people around to investigate whether there was a brigade of armed men nearby.

He Man has a nickname in Taiping Dao, called "Feitian Daoren". It is said that He Man is quick and good at climbing, give him a pole, and he can climb to the sky.

In addition, He Man's movements are extremely light and good at lurking and concealing. When he was under "Bo Cai Shuai", He Man was often assigned by "Bo Cai Shuai" to investigate the situation of the Han army. Since Zhang Qian had discovered the possible potential danger and was not very confident about He Qian, who had limited ability, he thought of asking He Man to take action and investigate the surrounding environment.

As a result, as soon as the "Flying Heaven Dao Man" made a move, he got a major enemy news: a group of hundreds of Ding Zhuang was lurking in a small valley not far from Wubao, and it was obvious that the comer was not good.

With the enemy's information, the arrogant response is unusually calm. When the enemy approached his fort, he sent a cavalry led by Le Jin from the north gate to detour back to the enemy's rear. Wait until the time is almost complete to outflank, and then send it to the forbidden area head-on to flank the incoming enemy.

In the prediction, these enemies who dare to attack with inferior forces will certainly not be weak. Even if you are attacked from two sides, you will put up a stubborn resistance. However, to the great surprise of insolence, these enemies seemed to be frightened, and as soon as they found themselves in a trap, they collapsed instantly.

The insolent careful arrangement turned out to be superfluous. Such a result does make people feel ridiculous.

Chen Deng looked at the scattered crowd below, and couldn't help but comment:

"This enemy is judged to be two people before and after, which is really unclear!

The former, with a small number of soldiers, faced the enemy, just talking about his bravery, is also a warrior. The latter, without a fight, and the army collapsed by itself, is simply cowardly. How big is the difference between before and after? ”

Xie Xun on the side, after listening to these words, thought about it for a while, and said:

"If you attack a big city with a small number of soldiers, even if you are unprepared, the chance of success is very small. A slight delay can lead to disaster. Is the bravery of this enemy just recklessness? ”

Zhang Madness frowned, glanced at Chen Deng, saw that he had no reaction, and didn't know if he was pretending to be stupid. It's just that what Xie Xun said, he really ignored it.

Pushing down along this line of thought, Zhang said arrogantly:

"If the enemy is really so stupid, then it is the luck of our army. I'm afraid, I'm afraid, there are other schemes in this. ”

Chen Deng listened, took over the conversation, and talked eloquently:

"As long as the enemy is not stupid and comes to the big city with a small army, there will be internal response."

Glancing at Zhang Qiang, Chen Deng continued:

"If you are a human being, but your army is running thousands of miles, and the army is heavily guarded, how can you contact outsiders? Thinking about it, it is the second possibility, in the dock fort, there is a secret passage. ”

Digging a secret passage is such a thing, and the powerful people at that time would often secretly get one when they were building a dock fort. As far as insolence knows, there are several examples. In this way, the enemy's night attack makes complete sense.

If dozens of brave men were suddenly killed from the dock fort, the city gate was captured, and the enemy from outside was let in, the unsuspecting Tianping army would not really be defeated.

After all, in the event of a sudden attack by the enemy at night, often the greater the number of troops, the greater the losses. Just trampling on each other and killing each other may cause more losses than being killed by the enemy.

Zhang Qi thought down this line of thought again, and suddenly felt a stirring in his heart. The enemy outside the city fled in confusion. However, the internal response in the city has not yet occurred!
