The rooster cries far above the former site of the diving camp

The empty camp was now a mess of waste, and occasionally a few stray wild dogs came to eat the yellow and white things on the ground, and the breeze blew and rolled up the dust.

A tornado carried the dust and smoke from the south, and with it the earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves, and a group of horsemen galloped quickly from the south, and when they came to the rooster's crow, the horses' hooves slowed down for a while, and then galloped away again.

There were more than 600 cavalry in this group, and the leader was a young general about 25 or 6 years old, and I saw that he was wearing stainless steel armor, a red cloak behind his back, and his face was a little delicate, but with his heroic face and his expression of not being angry and arrogant, it really gave people a sense of majesty.

This general was Pang Gang, and at this moment he was leading the only remaining cavalry of more than 600 cavalry and his own soldiers to chase Gao Qiqian.

Pang Gang closed his lips tightly, just concentrating on urging the horse forward, if you are familiar with Pang Gang, you may find that the expression on Pang Gang's face at this time has an indescribable taste compared to before, which is usually called arrogant and uninhibited, also called unscrupulous. Lu Xiangsheng's death seemed to have untied a shackle on Pang Gang's body, and the ambition and wildness that had been barely suppressed in his heart were all unscrupulously released at this moment.

Killing Gao Qiqian is the most obvious signal, if it was in the past, Pang Gang might have this or that scruples, but after Lu Xiangsheng's death, Pang Gang's heart has been in a sad and excited mood, as said in those bloody passages in later generations, once the floodgates of ** are opened, they can no longer be closed.

Because it was a horse and three horses, Pang Gang and the others were very fast, and after two days of hurrying, in the evening, they finally arrived at a place more than 100 miles away from Shijiazhuang.

Shi Bowen hit his horse and came to Pang Gang's side and said loudly: "My lord, let's stop and rest, and feed the horses some food by the way?" ”

After Pang Gang heard this, he slowly stopped the horse, looked around, and found that there was a small hill ahead, so he nodded and said, "Okay, order the brothers to dismount, let's rest for the night before we set off." ”

After speaking, Pang Gang got off the horse and slowly walked towards the hillside in front of him, and his own soldiers next to him led Pang Gang's horse away to prepare for feeding.

Seeing Pang Gang walking up the hill and just looking into the distance without saying a word, Shi Bowen and Hao Dayong beside him glanced at each other, a trace of helplessness flashed in their eyes, since Lu Xiangsheng died in battle, Pang Gang has been a little sullen, with them all the way to follow, because the 50,000 Ming troops stationed in the rooster song scattered in a hurry, along the way they also intercepted a lot of lone Ming troops, after interrogation only to know that Gao Qiqian had run with more than 100 cavalry, Pang Gang led the light cavalry to chase after without saying a word, It's been a few days that have worn them out.

Hao Dayong touched Shi Bowen's arm and said softly: "Team Shi, why do you say that the huge man is so eager to chase after the high and dive, as the saying goes, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, as for being so anxious?" ”

Shi Bowen glanced at Pang Gang, who was still contemplative in the distance, and said quietly: "Mr. Hao Qian, you don't know this, in my opinion, the huge people are completely disappointed in the imperial court, and chasing and killing Gao Qiqian is about to officially express that he wants to officially break with the imperial court." ”

These people can see that the one they are following has great ambitions, and it is a sure thing to break with the imperial court. coincided with troubled times, and now the only thing they think about is to follow their huge people, whether they can get a title or something in the future with a founding hero, and it will not be in vain to walk in this world.

With motivation, there is naturally motivation, and in Hao Dayong's view, now chasing and killing Gao Qiqian is the first step for Pang Gang and the imperial court to turn against each other.

Shi Bowen glanced at Hao Dayong, smiled slightly and continued: "Mr. Hao Qian, you are an old man in the officialdom, some things don't need to be said so clearly, you don't know the temper of a huge person, as long as you do things well, your future future will definitely not be able to run." ”

Don't look at Shi Bowen as just a pro-soldier captain, and he is only a 100-president when he picks up the position, but everyone knows the important surname of this pro-soldier captain, and it really doesn't change it for a thousand households. Just look at Cheng Kai, the guerrilla general in the third battalion, who jumped from a hundred households to the ranks of guerrilla generals, which is a third or fourth level in a row.

And the captain of the pro-soldier follows Pang Gang every day, and can always get first-hand information, as long as he can help him say a few more good words in Pang Gang's ear from time to time, the benefits are great, so no matter who it is, including Da Zhuang, Li Yuan, and other Pang Gang's old subordinates, people have always been polite to Shi Bowen.

Therefore, Hao Dayong, an official fan, laughed for a while after hearing Shi Bowen's words, and repeatedly bowed his hand to Shi Bowen, who was lower than his level, and thanked him again and again.

Just as the two of them were gossiping, a personal soldier in charge of the guard suddenly came to report, "Lord Shi, I found that there is a large group of cavalry passing by in front of me!" ”

"Oh!" Shi Bowen stood up and asked nervously: "How big is it, and how long has it been?" ”

The soldier was obviously an experienced veteran, and returned without thinking: "My lord, I just found a pile of horse manure, and the temperature of the horse manure is still warm, and it is estimated that these people will never have more than two hours in the past. ”

"Get on your horse and catch up with them!" At some point, Pang Gang came to their side and heard their conversation, and at this moment his eyes were looking at everyone with a look of excitement on his face.

"Yes!"

Knowing that Pang Gang was eager for revenge, Shi Bowen and Hao Dayong had no nonsense, and immediately beckoned the cavalry to re-mount and prepare to continue the pursuit.

The sky gradually darkened, Pang Gang and his party still galloped on the plain, running in the front were the two most experienced and good at tracking Ye Bushu, they followed the traces of the horses' hooves all the way, and gradually they deviated from the official road and chased towards a path next to the official road.

The road became more and more remote and difficult to walk, and when they chased to the treetops of the moon, the two who had been chasing the front did not return at night to report, and the person they wanted to chase was in a ruined temple in front of them, and the situation should be more than thirty people.

Hao Dayong couldn't suppress his joy, and said to Pang Gang, "My lord, the first ten ** in front of you are the eunuch, let's kill it!" ”

Pang Gang smiled lightly, but the smile was extremely cold, "Don't worry, order the brothers to surround you, and never let anyone slip through the net......"
