Chapter 189: Crossing the River
Since Pan Zhang's case, because he was able to stick to the bottom line, he was not dealt with, but Ma Zhong, who was transferred to the pro-guard team, was already a gilded general, and he returned to the courtyard from the outside at this time.
"Lord, there are at least hundreds of rebels outside, and some are coming from the east of the village, and they all have war horses!" Ma Zhong shouted.
"Hundreds?" Bai Tu didn't expect that he would encounter such a large number of rebels, and he was even rich enough to have a war horse.
In fact, if Sun Ce or the generals of Sun Ce's first division were present, they should be able to recognize the leaders of the two rebels, who betrayed Chen Lan and Lei Shu of Yuan Shu when they were released to Sun Quan.
There are also two thieves, Mei Qian and Lei Xu, who fell into chaos after Yuan Shu left......
Lei Shu and Lei Xu were originally brothers of the same clan, after Chen Lan and Lei Shu fell into the grass, with the money blackmailed from the Sun family and the Zhou family, as well as their soldiers, they made chaos in the Huainan area, and after Yuan Shu left, they expanded more unscrupulously.
And Mei Qian and Lei Xu are the generals who did not leave with Yuan Shu, because of the death of the Lei brothers, the two sides joined forces, which is the largest wave of chaos in Huainan at present.
Originally, because of Bai Tu's sweep, the four Lei Shu had decided to leave Huainan and did not dare to touch Bai Tu's tiger whiskers, but the assassins of the Yuan clan instigated them before, making them mistakenly think that it was the noble son of the local wang clan who passed by here today, and Bai Tu's energy has been in Shouchun recently, so they have the courage to run away after a big vote.
How...... actually hit the big guy by mistake, and directly pressed the white map here, which became the trump card of the Yuan assassin!
"What do I entrust you!" Lu Lingqi asked.
"No, the lord's reputation is outstanding, and they don't believe it at all." Ma Zhong said bitterly.
"Huh? What's the matter? Bai Tu was puzzled, he didn't give Ma Zhong any other orders.
"This, this ......" Ma Zhong hesitated.
Just now, Lu Lingqi quietly told him that when he went out to test, he would talk to the thief about the conditions by the way, such as ...... Let them retreat like this, and then the Che Cavalry General's Mansion can recruit them.
Anyway, it was Lu Lingqi who promised them, and whether Bai Tu really recruited an enemy afterwards or killed them all, he couldn't get Bai Tu on him!
As a general of the chariot cavalry and a great sage in the world, Bai Tu must be true to his word, and with his personality, he can't do this kind of compromise with the thief army, but ...... Lu Lingqi doesn't have such high requirements for herself.
However, Bai Tu has the reputation of "killing one person is like killing my father", how can Chen Lan and Lei Shu dare to believe Bai Tu's recruitment?
Seeing this, Bai Tu probably guessed something, and he didn't want to ask more, so he continued to order: "Since this is the case, then break through to the west!" My personal guards are all warriors who are ten warriors, just thieves, can they still keep us? ”
At this time, there were hundreds of people in the village, and there were still people coming from the east......
If Cheng Lian and Cao Xing's five hundred iron horses were there, even if these garbage were doubled, a few charges would be scattered, but now...... It can really bring some threats to Bai Tu's personal guards.
"Lord, General Cheng and General Cao should be back soon, it is better to stick to the ......," Du Bo, one of the Su Guards, suggested.
The most basic official position of the Su Guard is Dubo, and the ordinary members are also treated as chiefs.
"No, it doesn't make a difference whether this kind of small earthen wall built by the peasants themselves exists or not, and I don't know how many rebels are rushing in outside...... Break out now! Bai Tu ordered.
The number of rebel troops who were ambushed in the village before was still limited, but no one knows how many there are outside!
How long it will take for Cheng Lian and Cao Xing to come back is unknown.
When the guards heard this, they immediately executed Bai Tu's order, and the two gilded generals directly smashed through the earthen wall in the west, and then supported the big shield, and everyone behind them fired a burst of fire, killing a way out of hundreds of people!
There is a saying that is true, Baitu's guard...... It can be said that one is ten, not to mention that the other party is just a chaotic army.
Moreover, Bai Tu had already notified the surrounding counties through the official seal at the first time, and as soon as the soldiers and horses from all walks of life arrived, he immediately made these rebellious troops look good - the official seal of the general of the chariot cavalry, like the official seal of the state pastor, can directly contact the counties under his rule without going through the city concubine.
It's a pity that the guards under Bai Tu, when they broke out of the encirclement, had no time to take the war horse, so they could only gallop with the basic power of the war armor first.
The basic power of the Wood and Stone War Armor is not weaker than that of the War Horse in a short period of time, and it is more flexible, but the durability is very poor.
At the same speed, a group of guards escorted Bai Tu to evacuate, Chen Lan, Lei Shu and others had already jumped over the wall in a hurry at this time, and today this basket has been poked up, and Bai Tu must be taken to have room for recovery......
In the end, they chased and fled, all the way to the left of the Wei River.
The Wei River was originally a tributary of the Huai River and the most important river in Lu'an County, but under the drought, the water potential is not large now, and it has not reached the waist.
I can get through, but ...... As soon as it enters the current, the slow is the live target, and the pursuers behind it seem to have approached.
Bai Tu was also a little hesitant, whether to fight against the water or forcibly cross the river.
Ma Zhong spoke at this time: "Lord! After I took half of my brothers and broke off, my lord crossed the river. ”
"Don't forget about my family members, the name left in the Protector's Ancestral Hall is a good man."
"The world can be without me, not without the lord ......"
The other Dubs also urged him.
"No, we are already few at this time, if we are separated...... It's better to fight! Bai Tu said, pulling out the long sword that used to be only decorative from his waist.
But at this moment, I saw several bursts of wind breaking sound on a mound not far away, and at the same time, the brilliance of laser arrows flashed - just flashing, this person's arrows are very special, they should be shot by battle armor, but they are not as flamboyant as ordinary laser arrows, and they are very hidden.
Then I saw the pursuers take the lead and fall in response, and ...... Looks like they're all human warriors!
At this time, the sky was dark, but his archery skills were still the same, it seemed that there were only three or five people, but there was no false hair, which made the pursuers imposing.
This also shows the weakness of the chaotic soldiers' undisciplined and undisciplined, if it is replaced by a wolf ride in the state, a few captains and even chiefs will die, and they will not be disturbed at all.
In comparison, Bai Tu's pro-defense location and firing range are weaker, not to mention ...... Even if the opponent really enters the firing range, it will not be able to "name" the human warriors in it so accurately.
The pursuers had to split up and move closer to the mound.
"Which strong man volunteered? Let's return to the battle, we will fight the enemy together! Seeing this, Bai Tu shouted loudly.
However, in the face of Bai Tu's invitation, a few more arrows were shot on the mound, right in front of Bai Tu's personal guard, and three arrows, one arrow was closer than the other, as if it was persecuting...... No, it's to drive away!
When Bai Tu saw this arrow, he had already confirmed that the person who came and the person who had warned him in the village before should be in the same group.
Although the arrow was shot before, the overall style is very similar, and the material of the arrow shaft and arrow feather is the same......
"Lord, the person who helps should want to ...... Urging us to cross the river. Ma Zhong said.
It is better to say that it is "to urge", but it is better to say "to rush......
Quite a temper?
But no matter what you say, the other party should be helping herself, Bai Tu also chose to believe the other party, and immediately ordered to cross the river.
With this group of mysterious people contained, Bai Tu and his party finally reached the center of the river without external threats, but looking at the dynamics of the pursuers, those few should have also withdrawn......
This time, the rebels chased to the river, and they were about to attack with arrows, but at this moment, they saw a sound of hooves on the other side of the river, and they could see through the moonlight, and in the smoke and dust, it seemed that a large group of people and horses had arrived!
At the same time, I only heard someone on the other side of the river shouting: "Cao Jiaoqing, the thief under the gate of the Lujiang Taishou Mansion, is here, and the thief is arrogant!" ”
Bai Tu was also surprised when he heard this, and said that he ...... He did praise Lu Kang again before and reinstated Lujiang Taishou, but he also did not arrive, and his third brother was indeed in Shucheng, and he was smart enough, but ...... You never expected to be attacked, did you?
With the speed of transmission in Lujiang County, Zhou Yu has just received his letter at most, how can the support come so quickly?
But on second thought, what did the people say??
The Door Governor Thief Cao, also called the "Door Governor", is different from the military ranks such as the chief and the military chief, this is an official position, with a rank of 200 stones, and it is the official position of the Taishou Mansion responsible for exterminating the thieves in the territory, and it is also a military attaché...... Sesame mung beans are big!
It is said that if you really come to greet yourself, you can't just come to a subordinate governor, right?
It seems that Bai Tu was really lucky, and met the subordinate governor who happened to be patrolling here...... Fortunately, the subordinate governor of Lujiang is really energetic, and the third watch is still outside in the middle of the night.
Listening to the voice, he was still quite young, and Bai Tu had already made up his mind that he would be promoted afterwards.
And the pursuers behind him, seeing the bandit army in Shucheng coming to help, immediately did not dare to continue to release the arrows, and after a little wandering, they turned around and retreated-since it was hopeless to capture Bai Tu alive, they could only take advantage of Bai Tu's "soft run" before he could really move, and if they were lucky, they might be able to flow to Nanyang.
As for Yuzhou and Xuzhou? Cao Cao and Liu Bei's mastery of the two places is definitely much stronger than Liu Biao's mastery of Nanyang, and as for Jiangdong, it is even more of a tiger's den in Longtan for them.
As soon as Bai Tu came ashore, he saw the young man shouting back from his pursuers.
Bai Tu looked at it, and was a little puzzled that he was not wearing battle armor, but he still laughed and went up to greet him: "Hahaha, Lujiang County is really heroic, Jiaomen leads troops, if there is enough, I will rush back!" ”
Why laugh?
Nonsense!
It's a shame to be chased so far, right?
At least in front of his subordinates, Bai Tu has to act like he is not frightened and this is a small problem......
In short, it must be right to smile first to ease the embarrassment!
"This nobleman, Xiaosheng is just a scholar under the gate of the Taishou Mansion, and he just saw the thief committing murder, so he just defrauded across the river, how can there be any soldiers...... The nobles still took advantage of their failure to react and ran away. The young man who called himself Jiao Qing said urgently.
Bai Tu's face was stunned, and at the same time, he had already discovered that there was no smoke and dust, and it was clear that more than a dozen servants transporting silk cloth were holding large pieces of silk cloth and calling fans, and they were driving the cattle and horses pulling the carts, raising their hooves in place......
At this time, this young scholar looked at Bai Tu and the others, and he was also a little hesitant - it was just late and he didn't see it clearly, he only thought it was a small caravan tycoon, but now he saw that these people were all armored, and they were clearly generals, and they didn't know each other, so he couldn't help but feel worried in his heart...... Wouldn't this also be a chaotic army, just now it was infighting or black eating black, right?
Bai Tu also understood at this time that this little official had just made a trick, but he was just ...... If you think about it carefully, this "fraud" is a bit too shallow.
Anyway, it's bragging, so you can't say a big official? Isn't it good to shout directly that it is a captain?
In addition, no one really chased it back, and when those thieves reacted, they would definitely find out the disobedience after thinking about it......
"Then you can't escape...... Defend by the river! Bai Tu decisively ordered.
At this time, Bai Tu's personal guards, the power of the battle armor is about to run out, and he can't escape far, it is better to rely on the geographical advantage to fight with the other party, although there are many chaotic soldiers and numbers, but Bai Tu really doesn't believe that the other party can forcibly cross the river with the damage!
And if nothing else, as long as they hold on for a while, reinforcements including Cheng Lian and Cao Xing will also gather, after all, ...... The chaos is a little chaotic, but Lujiang is already the home of Baitu!
