Hearing that the Khitan army had arrived, everyone changed color.

Yang Zheng immediately made a decision and said in a deep voice: "Let's go!" ”

"Take the West Gate or the East Gate?"

"Do what you want!"

After that, Yang Zheng withdrew from Yihong Courtyard with a tide of people.

At this time, Lei Huo'er and the others, who were guarding the gate, saw this and retreated with complicated expressions.

Yang Zheng led everyone to turn over and get on the horse cleanly, and was about to whip away, when suddenly, Lei Huo'er ran to him and said in a low voice: "Master Yang, someone from the city defense just sent a message to let you go to the north gate." The east gate and the west gate, the Khitans have already sent troops and horses to block it, only the north gate is the farthest away, and it is difficult for them to reach it for a while. ”

"Thanks for the reminder!"

Yang Zheng glanced at Lei Huo'er and the others deeply, threw a bag of silver coins to them, and then rode around the horse's head and headed towards the north gate.

Lei Huo'er followed and ran down the steps, chased a few steps, and said loudly: "Take care on the third master's road!" ”

Yang Meng laughed and waved his hand, and said without looking back: "Lei Huo'er, there will be a period later!" ”

After Yang Zheng and the other eleven people rode away, Lei Huo'er looked at their disappearing backs and was stunned for a long time.

At this time, the black-faced strong man ran out of the house and said urgently: "Brother Lei, the Khitan puppy is dead, what should I do now?" ”

Lei Huo'er lowered his head and thought for a while, "Go to the county government to report to the official!" By the time the Xu County Order was ordered, it was estimated that the owners of Yang Zhuang and they had already gone out of the city! ”

"Okay, I'll go!"

In the middle of the words, at the end of the long street, the sound of hurried horses' hooves became clearer and clearer.

In the blink of an eye, I saw a burly Khitan general, leading dozens of soldiers in iron armor, galloping murderously to the gate of Yihong Courtyard.

The Khitan general stopped his horse, led the armor to turn over and dismount, and looked anxious to rush into the Yihong Courtyard.

Seeing this, Lei Huo'er and the others pretended to be sad and rushed forward and cried: "Oh no, no, the little marquis was killed!" ”

Hearing this, the Khitan general was shocked and angry, kicked Lei Huo'er to the ground on the spot, and hurriedly rushed into the Yihong Courtyard, and after a while, there was an angry roar from the house, "Give me chase!" No matter what, don't let those thieves escape tonight! If we can't catch the murderer of the son, we will all have to fall to the ground! ……”

…………

The snow was falling and the hooves were thundering.

Yang Zheng and the others rode their horses on the snow-covered streets, preparing to leave Wu'an County as fast as possible.

Behind them, the dense sound of horses' hooves, as well as the sound of armor clashing, is getting closer and closer, and it is estimated that the distance between the two sides will not exceed two hundred meters at most.

The pursuers of the Khitan people were fierce, which caused a very strong sense of oppression to people's psychology.

Yang Zheng led everyone to desperately raise their whips and accelerate, but they couldn't close the distance between them and the chasing soldiers behind.

The war horses of the Khitan people are all high-grade war horses on the northern steppe, not to mention tall and strong, and the running speed is extremely fast, and the endurance is even stronger.

On the other hand, Yang Zheng's mount, although it can be regarded as a fast horse, is not the same grade as the war horse used by the Khitans, whether it is endurance or sprint speed, there is too much difference.

In addition, the snow on the ground was slippery tonight, and the horses of Yang Zheng and others were not equipped with special non-slip hooves, resulting in the speed of galloping and sprinting, which has not been able to mention the highest.

Horses, like people, have spirituality and fear.

Faced with the slippery streets covered with snow, they didn't dare to sprint at full speed for fear of their slippery hooves falling over.

Everyone's faces were solemn, and Yang Zheng's brows were also tightly furrowed.

Originally, according to his plan, after killing Xiao Changlong tonight, he would have enough time to escape from the county seat.

But he never expected that the soldiers and horses of the Khitan people would come so quickly, and it was obvious that when he had just appeared at the gate of Yihong Courtyard, someone must have secretly gone to the South Gate military camp to report the news.

Otherwise, the pursuers will not come so soon!

Everyone glanced back and found that the Khitan pursuers were getting closer and closer, at this time, Yang Meng gritted his teeth and said: "Big brother, it seems that you can't get rid of it, what should I do?" ”

Yang Zheng said: "How far is the North City Gate?" ”

Yang Meng said loudly: "It's not far ahead, but even if we get to the city gate, when we open the city gate, it is estimated that the Khitans have already caught up!" ”

"There's no time, we have to fight a tough battle with these Khitans!"

Yang Zheng took a deep breath and ordered loudly: "Shiyuan, you now take the two of you to open the city gate first, and the rest of the people, follow me to stay behind and stop the pursuit of the Khitans!" ”

"Good!"

Yang Shiyuan nodded, didn't talk nonsense, and directly took the two clansmen to take the lead to open the city gate.

Since the city defense sent someone to report to them, there is no need to worry that the city gate will not be opened, anyway, they have guns on them, even if they come hard, they can kill more than a dozen local garrisons who are keeping vigil at the north city gate.

Besides, the virtues of the city defense garrison army in Wu'an County are greedy for life and afraid of death, they know better than anyone else!

As soon as Yang Shiyuan took the two of them away, Yang Zheng immediately ordered the remaining seven people to turn over and dismount, and ambushed them in the alleys on both sides of the street.

In order to stop the pursuers of the Khitans, grenades must be used.

The grenade explosion was so loud that if you didn't drive the horses away, you would be afraid that they would be frightened.

Anyway, Yang Shiyuan opened the city gate in front, and after these mounts saw it, they would definitely follow and not get lost.

After making all the preparations, Yang Zheng, Yang Meng, Yang Dapeng and Yang Mazi and other eight people, they took out their pistols and quietly hid in the alley, quietly waiting for the arrival of the pursuers.

The sound of hooves is getting louder and closer.

When they were dozens of steps away, with the help of the faint lights coming from the houses on both sides of the street, everyone could vaguely see that a burly Khitan general, armed with a mace, took the lead, leading dozens of iron horsemen, galloping.

Behind this group of Khitan iron cavalry, there was also a large group of Khitan infantry wearing iron armor and large round fur hats, and the number was no less than two hundred.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but secretly take a cool breath.

Suddenly, at this moment, in the depths of Yang Zheng's mind, an incomparably familiar cold prompt voice suddenly sounded.

"Congratulations to the chief for successfully killing a prospective (marquis) noble lord, so the system will reward you with ten overtime cards, do you want to accept the reward?"

Yang Zheng was stunned for a moment, and secretly wondered: "When did I kill a marquis-level noble lord?" Could it be Xiao Changlong? ”

Thinking of this, his eyes lit up suddenly.

"That's right, just now the system said that it was a quasi-(marquis) noble lord, not a real marquis, Xiao Changlong is a marquis's son, isn't he a quasi-marquis? But after I just shot Xiao Changlong, why didn't the system give a reward? Could it be that Xiao Changlong was not dead at that time, and now he is completely out of breath? ”

After figuring this out, Yang Zheng was very excited, and hurriedly responded in his mind, "I want to accept the reward......
