Chapter 613: Two-Winged Geist
The ghostly black knight suddenly appeared from both flanks of the team, but the whole team remained unusually quiet, and did not panic in the slightest because of the sudden appearance of the enemy.
The composition of the team is eight hundred well-trained royal forest soldiers, and the other part is mixed with the dark officials, these are the first-class elite figures of the Yan Kingdom, and naturally they will not panic because of the unexpected arrival.
The rest of the personnel, except for the forty palace maids and eunuchs who accompanied the marriage, the others were some officials of the Ministry of Rites who came with them.
The eunuch palace maid is also the elite of the inner palace carefully selected by Yan Guo, and her psychological quality is very strong, if you really want to talk about it, it is a group of officials in the Ministry of Etiquette whose psychological quality is slightly worse.
But under the protection of a strong escort team, they naturally will not be cowardly, but the most important reason is that there are not many people on the other side.
The two wings combined, there are at most twenty or thirty horsemen, although each one looks very weird, but this small cavalry is in the eyes of the Yan State Guard, it is really too weak, even if the other party is a powerful warrior, but in the face of nearly a thousand royal forest soldiers, they are like a wolf cub in front of a lion, it is difficult to see what wind and waves they can rise.
The black knights on both wings did not rush to this side, but looked at them from a distance.
Cao Yin, who was at the front of the team, finally stopped his horse, and the whole team also stopped, and under the sky, like a long dragon, quietly hibernating on the earth.
"My lord, shall we catch up?" Xiao Mu rode a horse and followed Han Mo's side, his eyes were sharp, his hand was pressed on the hilt of the knife, he looked at the black flag in the distance, and asked in a low voice.
Han Mo's gaze did not fall on the group of black knights, but he looked around to determine if there were any other ambushes besides these black knights.
On this open land, there were dozens or even hundreds of people in ambush, Han Mo was not surprised, but if a large-scale army of more than a thousand people suddenly appeared, then Han Mo would definitely be sure that it was a big conspiracy at the first time.
"You say they're going to be assassins?" Han Mo touched his chin, looked into the distance, and sneered: "If these dozens of people want to hurt the princess, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream...... Do they have any other purpose? ”
Xiao Mu said: "My lord, my royal forest knights are all warriors with one as ten, and the other party does not have two or three times the strength of the army, so he will never dare to come here!" ”
Han Mo smiled faintly: "That makes sense. He commanded: "Carved beam clown, don't pay attention." Draw two teams of cavalry to protect the wings and continue to rush ......! ”
Xiao Mu immediately transferred the cavalry from the rear team, and protected the two wings of the team like protective armor.
The team continued to move forward, and the black knights in the distance on both wings were strangely moving in the same direction, like the scout cavalry sent by the pro-team to be on guard on both wings.
Although people didn't speak, but unconsciously, they were curious about the black knights on both wings, and the other party neither retreated, nor came, but just wandered around the two wings with the team, what did these people want to do? Who are they, are they from the Qingguo side?
Qin Si, the envoy of the Nanwu Guan'an Army, saw the cavalry wandering on both wings, his face was even more pale, and the sweat on his forehead kept coming out, and the handkerchief was continuously wiped with sweat, and it was already soaked.
It seemed that he had some kind of fear of those ghostly cavalry, Qin Si led his cavalry and leaned towards the big carriage where the princess was, everyone knew that the area near the princess's carriage was the safest place for the entire team.
Staying close to the princess's carriage will ensure that you will be safer.
Seeing Qin Si's panicked and pale face, and seeing him approaching the carriage to find the safest place, the people of the Yan Kingdom suddenly became disdainful.
This civilian official is timid and afraid of death, and he has no domineering spirit to lead the troops, and he doesn't know what he relies on to guard the border with General Yun's soldiers.
Some of the Imperial Forest soldiers even thought in their hearts: "If the border passes of Qingguo are guarded by people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, then as long as my Dayan waves his army north, I'm afraid they will turn around and run, right?" ”
It's just that Qin Si approached the carriage, but Hu Yong, who was guarding the side of the carriage, had already made a gesture to ask Qin Si and his subordinates not to get too close.
Hu Yong is a member of the personal guard of Shang Zhongli, the holy general of Yan State, the number is very small, each of them is a first-class good player, it is said that the entire Qingguo Hu Yong, no more than two hundred people.
Ten Hu Yong came to Yan Country to assist Yun Canglan in protecting the safety of the Xihe Prince, but now they are returning, but they are protecting the safety of Princess Shuang, so even if Qin Si and these Qingguo people approach, Hu Yong is still heavily guarded and prohibits Qin Si from getting too close.
They are Shang Zhongli's guards, to put it mildly, their loyalty to Shang Zhongli is even more than their loyalty to Emperor Qing.
Shang Zhongli handed them over to Yun Canglan, and Yun Canglan ordered to do his best to protect the princess's safety, and they naturally regarded them as golden jade strips and carried them out one by one.
Although Qin Si is the envoy of the border army, these Hu Yong don't care who he is.
Although Qin Si was a little unhappy, he didn't dare to get too close, some distance, even so, he could be in the center of the team, in the safest area.
Riding up from the rear team and galloping to Han Mo's side, it was a dark official wearing a mask, and said in a low voice: "My lord, do you send someone over to get rid of them!" ”
Although her voice is low, it is very crisp, although she is wearing a black cloak, her figure outlined by black clothes is very slender and curvy.
Mixed in the team, many of the Royal Forest Soldiers along the way couldn't help but set their eyes on her, but it was a pity that although they could see the slender figure of this female dark officer, they couldn't see the face hidden by the mask.
Many people have long guessed in their hearts that with such a wonderful figure, their appearance must be extremely beautiful.
……
Of course, Red Sleeves is beautiful, but there are too few people who can see her beautiful face, and this time the dark officials are not only men, but also several women are following them.
The dark officials under the West Flower Hall have never been only men, and the female officials, who account for one-third of the entire Yamen, have made no less contributions to the dark operation than the male dark officials.
Han Mo didn't answer immediately, just looked at the back of the team, in the middle of the team, there were faintly many dark officials wearing black masks, and three or four of them were wearing black cloaks.
Before Han Mo could answer, he heard someone shouting, "They're coming!" ”
Han Mo looked up, and saw that the black cavalry on both wings seemed to really can't help but wander around, and while galloping on the horse, they actually slowly approached.
This group of horses under the black knight's seat are obviously rare horses, and they are extremely fast.
They didn't rush straight over, but staggered back and forth, gradually approaching.
Xiao Mu was guarding in the direction of the left flank at this time, when he saw the black knight coming, he frowned, and with a wave of his hand, more than twenty archers had flashed out from the side, pierced in front of the cavalry, squatted down, bent his bow and arrows, and aimed at the cavalry who was slowly approaching.
"When they get closer, after the first round of archery, you lead a team of cavalry to surround them." Xiao Mu instructed one of the royal forest cavalrymen beside him: "Since these people are looking for death, you will fulfill them and try to catch them alive!" ”
"Yes, sir!" The cavalryman immediately bowed his hand, drew his saber from his waist, turned back to a small group of cavalrymen behind him, and said, "Brothers, prepare to catch mice!" ”
A group of cavalrymen behind him immediately drew their sabers, clenched the hilt of the sword, and exposed their green tendons, and when they gave the order, they went up to capture the group of black knights who looked like wanderers.
The Imperial Forest Army has self-confidence, and as the elite warriors of the Yan Kingdom, they are not afraid of any opponent.
Han Mo on the right flank also waved his hand to let a group of archers prepare in front, and also ordered his cavalry to be ready to go up and assault at any time.
It's just that there was a strange look in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something, his hand touched his chin, he groaned for a while, and suddenly turned his head and looked at Qin Si, the An Jun envoy behind him.
I saw that Qin Si was also looking at the wandering black cavalry from afar, but he looked a little panicked, and he was still wiping the sweat from his forehead with the handkerchief in his hand.
Han Mo closed his eyes, and in just a moment, he opened them, leaned close to the ear of the red sleeves beside him, whispered a few words, and the red sleeves arched his hand, turned the horse's head, and returned to the rear team.
Yun Canglan had already ridden to Han Mo's side, and was about to speak, when Han Mo had already taken the lead in speaking: "Lord Yun, is this your Qingguo's cavalry?" ”
Yun Canglan didn't affirm or deny, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Lord Han, what you sit under is a rare peerless horse, isn't it?" ”
Han Mo said lightly: "Lord Yun has good eyesight! ”
"The Shadow is Weima!" Yun Canglan said slowly: "Lord Han looks at their horses, the color is extremely pure, the speed is extremely fast, and it can be seen that the endurance of these horses is first-class, in our team, except for Lord Han's shadow, I'm afraid there is no other horse comparable to their horses!" ”
Han Mo said lightly: "Yes, they are all good horses, if they run for their lives, we shouldn't be able to catch up!" ”
"That's all Weima under the snowy mountains." Yun Canglan said: "The horses of the Wei State are famous all over the world, but this group of Wei horses is not an ordinary Wei horse, and the ones under them are all the black overlords of the Wei Kingdom!" ”
"Underson?"
"Yes, a true Thousand Miles Horse." Yun Canglan sneered: "This kind of good horse is worth a lot of money in the city, and this time it actually dispatched more than twenty Black Overlords at one time, which is a big deal!" ”
"Lord Yun means that these people are from the Wei Kingdom?" Han Mo shook his head and smiled: "Lord Yun, the one riding the white horse is not necessarily the prince, and the one riding the Wei horse is not necessarily from the Wei country!" ”
Yun Canglan smiled slightly, watching the ghostly black cavalry galloping towards each other, they held the broadswords in their hands high, shining brightly in the sun, and they were getting closer and closer to the range of the archers.
The archers of the Yan Kingdom on both wings had already drawn their bows, and when the opponent entered the shooting range, they released their arrows.
Han Mo glanced at Yun Canglan and said in a low voice, "Lord Yun, do you think these people have the ability to hurt the princess?" ”
Yun Canglan immediately shook his head and said: "Even if each of the other party is a person with strong martial arts, but if you want to rush into battle with only more than 20 people, it will undoubtedly be self-defeating!" ”
"Yes, no matter how I look at it, I think it's a suicide attack." Han Mo smiled faintly and said, "It's just that I'm very strange, are there really so many people who want to die in this world?" ”
Yun Canglan shook his head and said, "If there is no reason to die, it is hard to imagine that someone will really want to die!" ”
"So...... This group of people are wrapped around the wings like ghosts, and they want to make an attacking posture, but they sit down but ride the Black Overlord who is suitable for escape, their purpose is ...... What is it? Han Mo stared at Yun Canglan and said in a low voice, "Lord Yun, do you think they are deliberately diverting our attention to it, and then put on a good show that should be combined inside and outside?" ”
Smash the ticket!
