Chapter 396: Confrontation
The crowd, which was extremely excited just now, instantly dimmed.
In the entire Beixi County, who doesn't know that Mrs. Qin is a great and kind person......?
At this moment, a young man in the crowd hesitated, walked under the guard's horse, and said nervously: "Master Jun, are you here to find that Beidi ranger? ”
The guard, who was originally full of guard, couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, grabbed the young man's arm, and said eagerly: "Where have you seen it?" ”
At the same time, Qin Feng had already spread out the map in the county office.
Beixi County is forty miles away from the border, and there are four posts, two post stations, and one camp in the middle.
On the east side is a bare stone mountain, and on the right side is a flat river.
If the border army is a little sluggish, after the Beidi rangers capture Mrs. Qin, they can withdraw from the border as soon as possible.
Qin Feng frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "When did the border army come to report?"
Chen Li was sweating nervously, and stammered as he replied, "Son, it's the afternoon of the second day after the incident." ”
Hearing this, Qin Feng's heart was already half cold.
Not to mention that it was delayed for most of the day, even if it was only delayed for an hour or two, with the speed of Beidi's rangers, it was easy to kill and return and safely withdraw to Beidi's territory.
Could it be ......
Is this really unsolvable?
Just when Qin Feng's heart was gloomy, a soldier rushed into the county hall and said excitedly: "Son Qiqi, that Beidi Ranger is still in Beixi County!"
The guard's report is tantamount to sending charcoal in the snow, Qin Feng, who had no hope, rekindled his fighting spirit in his eyes, as long as the Beidi Ranger is still in the territory of Daliang, there is still room for maneuver!
Qin Feng looked at the guard, pretending to be calm and asked, "What's the matter?"
The guards were secretly excited, after all, Mrs. Qin was about the rise and fall of the Qin family, and the Qin family was about the future of the Tianji Camp, and now the three hundred guards and Qin Feng were both prosperous and lost, even if there was a slight chance to save Mrs. Qin, it was exciting enough for the guards.
The guard clasped his fists and saluted, forcing the joy in his heart: "Qiyu Gongzi, a local shepherd, was shepherding sheep near Daze Mountain yesterday and found a horseshoe print. The Beidi war horse is tall, and its hoof prints are one finger deeper and one finger wider than those of the local horses. ”
Hearing this, Qin Feng hurriedly checked the map and found that Daze Mountain was located in the east of Beixi County, twenty miles away from Qingshizi Village.
Unless the Beidi Ranger mission went wrong, it would never be possible to go far to the area of Daze Mountain.
And now the main roads out of the customs have been blocked by the border army, if the Beidi rangers want to leave the country, they can only take risks, across Daze Mountain, over the mountains. In this way, the speed advantage of the ranger cannot be brought into play, and the speed of the march will inevitably be greatly reduced.
There's still a chance!
Qin Feng ignored Chen Li, who was full of sycophants next to him, and immediately ordered: "Ning Hu, you quickly take fifty cavalry guards, go all the way to the north, go straight to the border line, outflank the northern foot of Daze Mountain, and block the escape route of the rangers! Since they are here, they will all stay in the land of Daliang, and don't even think about running!"
Ning Hu didn't say a word, rushed out of the county office, raised fifty cavalry guards, and rushed towards the north.
Qin Feng asked the remaining fifty cavalry guards to stand by.
Then he looked at Chen Li and said in a deep voice: "Qingshizi Village, can there be a living mouth?"
Chen Li knew that Qingshizi Village was the ancestral land of the Qin family, and there were many ordinary people among them, all of whom were relatives of the Qin family, so he was a little hesitant and did not dare to answer Qin Feng's inquiry directly, and said vaguely: "The border army reported that Qingshizi Village was slaughtered, and there was no mention of whether there were survivors. ”
Hehe!
Qin Feng sneered in his heart.
It has been four days since the parents of Beixi County were slaughtered by the Beidi rangers, and it has been four days since Qin Feng broke into the city gate with his guards and rushed all the way to the county office.
These two charges of dereliction of duty alone were enough to pluck off his head!
But no matter how mediocre this guy is, after all, he has been operating in Beixi County for several years, and his understanding of the local area is far better than Qin Feng.
Qin Feng could only swallow this evil breath and sneered faintly: "Then you can quickly go and check, there is Lord Lao County." ”
Qin Feng said the word 'Youlao' very seriously, which frightened Chen Li into a cold sweat, how dare he hesitate at all, and ran out of the county government in a panic with the crooked melon and cracked dates, and headed towards Qingshizi Village.
Qin Feng no longer hesitated, took the remaining fifty cavalry guards, and went straight to Daze Mountain......
At the same time, Kyoto Harugaku.
After several days of promotion by Shen Qingci, the name of "The Legend of the Bright Moon" has spread throughout Kyoto.
The children of Beijing and the literati came one after another, and they all wanted to order the gold-bound collector's edition.
A wagon of new books had just arrived, and they were sold out in a short time.
Shen Qingci was about to send someone to Tianjiying to pick up the goods, but when he saw Lu Ming appear at the door coldly, he was ghostly and foolishly inside.
Shen Qingci knew that Lu Ming was Qin Fengzhi's right-hand man, so he asked casually: "Lu Ming, you didn't stay in the Tianji Camp, why did you come here?"
Lu Ming didn't dare to enter Qing Ya Pavilion rashly, after all, this was an elegant place, and it seemed incompatible with him, a "rough man".
stood at the door, scratched his head, and said with a smile: "If you go back to the eldest lady, the little one is indeed in trouble, and it was arranged by the young master before he left Beijing." ”
Hearing this, Shen Qingci suddenly became interested, and beckoned Lu Ming to come in.
Lu Ming's head shook like a rattle, and he said in embarrassment: "The little one is dirty, so he won't go in." ”
Shen Qingci's eyes glared: "Let you in, you will enter, Hugh is verbose." ”
Lu Ming knew that the eldest lady had a bad temper, so he had to walk into Qing Ya Pavilion hard, and watched Shen Qingci take the initiative to hand over a cup of herbal tea, Lu Ming couldn't help but feel a panic in his heart, but he was more moved. Obviously, the Qin family has regarded Lu Ming as "their own family".
Lu Ming held the herbal tea, and secretly swore in his heart that he must do his best for the Qin family in this life, so as to live up to his kindness.
Shen Qingci looked at Lu Ming with deep meaning.
According to Shen Qingci's knowledge, in this Tianji camp, in addition to Xu Mo and Ning Hu, it belongs to this Lu Ming, who is the most important to Qin Feng, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a henchman.
With such a high status, Lu Ming was not arrogant, but cautious.
Shen Qingci couldn't help but nod secretly, Qin Feng's stinky boy, he was used to being unkempt, and he didn't have to say anything about the skill of controlling people.
Shen Qingci immediately asked, "What is Feng'er explaining to you?"
