"Let's go! Fast! ”

War horses galloped past, and the thick hooves of the horses struck the ground, beating on Liu Xiu's heart again and again like the beat of a passionate drum. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Did the enemy catch up?"

The pro-soldiers who were walking side by side looked back, but only a dozen or so horses escaped behind them, and they did not see the officers and soldiers.

"All of them! There were no officers and soldiers behind! ”

Liu Xiu lay on the horse's back, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good!" Come on! We will be in the valley ahead, and we will be safe in the valley! ”

When the soldiers heard this, their tired faces showed a hint of joy. After all, it is really lucky to be able to live for the rest of your life after such a desperate situation. If it weren't for the sudden dark clouds covering the battlefield just now, making the day like night, they estimated that even these more than ten horsemen might not have the slightest way to survive.

"Drive!"

Everyone hurriedly whipped the war horses under their crotches and galloped away on the dusty road.

After a while, another group of cavalry roared to the place where Liu Xiu and the others had just passed.

This group of cavalry is Yan You's vanguard unit "Iron Gun Battalion".

"Phew—stop!"

The man at the head sat on a black war horse, as black as ink, and the lines of the muscles of his body were full of the beauty of power explosion, which made people no longer be able to leave their sight at a glance. As the so-called BMW with heroes, with such a sturdy bright horse, its owner must also be a hero.

He was wearing a dark heavy armor, and the indifference in his eyes made people shudder when they looked at it, but at this moment, there was a trace of anxiety on his ancient face.

"General, there are horseshoe prints on the ground, they must have been left by the thieves!"

The man listened to the report of his subordinates, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Not bad! I guess we just left, so let's speed up, and we must get this out before Lord Zuzheng arrives! ”

He threw a punch in the direction where Liu Xiu had just left, but a white figure skipped in his heart, which made his face have a hint of haze.

"Let's go! Drive! ”

There was another dense drum beat, which turned from heavy to shallow, and the dead leaves and forests on both sides were still as calm as before, like a pool of bottomless water, without any sound.

After a while, the commander Yan You led the follow-up troops to arrive here, but he did not make any stops, and just followed the horseshoe marks on the ground and followed the map.

"Whew! But suffocate me! If you hold it any longer, Lao Tzu's lungs will explode! A figure suddenly came out from under the dead leaf tree that had been calm, and there was no doubt that its shape and words were Fang Jie.

Immediately afterwards, a group of people came out of the "hula" from the position just now, all of them were unkempt and dirty, and they were stained with a lot of broken leaves.

A tall figure stood up and covered Fang Jie's big mouth and said, "You be quiet!" Beware of being heard by the enemy! ”

Fang Jie slapped the dust on his body and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, you didn't see the person who passed by just now, there is no doubt that he is the commander of the enemy army!" What if they delay any longer and they run away? ”

Geng Chun listened to what Fang Jie said, so he nodded kindly, and said, "Well, that's okay, let's be quick with our hands and feet, block the back road, don't let them run away!" ”

"Quick! Spread the oil away, light it and go! ”

"Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

A series of orders were issued, and Geng Chun, Fang Jie and others began to arrange as quickly as possible.

On the other side, as Liu Xiu and others galloped wildly, the gap between them and the pursuers became wider and wider.

Liu Xiu was still lying on horseback, the battle not long ago had exhausted him, and at this moment he had no desire to move, and his eyes were staring at the road in front of him with the bumps of the horse, and the roads on both sides quickly retreated like floating lights.

"All of them! It's here! ”

Hearing the exclamation of his subordinates, Liu Xiu raised his head like a coiled dragon, only to see that the dead wood not far away gradually disappeared, and the outline of the valley could be faintly seen, and a murderous aura filled the air.

A group of people rode their horses to the valley mouth and gradually slowed down, the strange rocks on the peaks on both sides were craggy, and a head poked out from behind a huge stone, Liu Xiu hurriedly shouted at the mountain: "Don't let go of the arrow!" It's me! ”

There was a commotion on the mountain, and a general stood up from behind the stone and said, "Is it the deputy commander at the bottom?" ”

"Exactly! Liu Er, let me pass through the valley! The pursuers behind are almost here! ”

Liu Er, who was on the mountain, was immediately relieved when he saw Liu Xiu shouting his name; hurriedly responded: "Eh! Good! Let's go over quickly! ”

"Drive!" When Liu Xiu heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and led his men into the valley.

And Liu Er on the mountain also hurriedly retracted back behind the stone and hid. The entire Niutou Valley also instantly restored its original Mu Jing and slaughter.

Perhaps it was because of the murderous smell that the mountains were silent, and not even a trace of insects was heard, and the birds in the sky avoided this place as if they were aware of it.

Yan You led a large number of troops galloping through the forest, and these were his core elite iron spear battalions. Not long ago, in order to please the thief, he deliberately expanded it, from the original 300 to 500. Cavalry is the most expensive, whether it is horses, armor, bows and arrows, weapons, all of them are the best in the whole army. Although Yan You, as the military governor of a county, was still restrained by Wang Yi, who was too guarded. The money bag was pinched in the hands of others, even if he wanted to raise a little more soldiers, it was unlikely, and there has been a famine every year, although Nanyang County has always been a rich county, but it can't collect much tax.

Therefore, these five hundred horses are all the meat of his heart, and the loss of a little will make him feel distressed. Just now because I was carried away by anger, I actually followed the thief army into this dry forest, and at this moment, I was jolting on the horse for a while, and some thoughts in my heart gradually took shape, and I began to wake up.

"The place of ambush that the messenger said seems to be in Niutou Mountain, right?"

He was secretly thinking in his heart, suddenly startled, and hurriedly sent an order to the rear: "Pass my order, slow down!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly rushed over not far away, and it was one of the cavalry that he asked Yuan Yu to take to chase the thief first.

"My lord! Captain Yuan sent a villain to report that there was a valley ahead, which looked quite suspicious, and it was estimated that there was an ambush! The thieves probably took refuge in the valley. Captain Yuan wants to ask your lordship, what should I do next? I hope you will make it clear! ”

"Sure enough!" When Yan You heard the herald's words, a trace of doubt in his heart was suddenly resolved.

"What a thief! Such a clumsy temptation to expect me to be fooled? When I'm strict someone is a fool can't do it? He stroked his goatee triumphantly, glanced ahead with a little disdain, and then turned back and continued to command:

"The whole army has an order! Slow down and move on! ”

Then, he said to the herald, "You go and tell Yuan Yuan, and let him hurry back to join me!" Don't enter the valley without permission! Just go! ”

"No!" The soldier clenched his fists and hurriedly turned over and went to report the order.

Just as he was still triumphant that he had seen through the tricks of the thieves, suddenly there was a commotion from the rear of the Iron Gun Battalion.

Yan You frowned and looked behind him, and a dry smell of burnt came out of nowhere and penetrated into his nostrils.

He sniffed vigorously at the strange smell that seemed to be coming from something burned, and the smug in his heart instantly vanished, and the whole person was completely frozen in place like falling into an ice cellar.

"Not good! The thieves set fire to the forest! ”
