Zhong Tian was stunned for a moment, blinked his eyes, and said, "Xiao Shang, the head of Gaochuan County, is my cousin, and he must be loyal to me." Zhan Wushuang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is Xiao Shang now?" "It should still be in Zhangyu, the county capital of Gaochuan County." "Oh, why didn't you say it earlier?" Zhan Wushuang said in a deep voice: "Let's go to Zhangyu now!" Zhong Tian sighed darkly, although Zhangyu said that it was not located in the hinterland of the Wind Country, but it was not on the way to Mozambique, Zhan Wushuang had always advocated going straight to Mozambique, how could he have given himself a chance to speak? But at this time, it was useless to argue about this, Zhong Tian nodded and said, "Okay! "Zhangyu is located in the northeast of Baguan, the distance is five hundred miles, with the current state of Zhong Tian and Ning Jun, it is not easy to go to Zhangyu, more importantly, they are now afraid that Tang Yin in the rear will chase and kill, they dare not take the official road, they can only travel through the barren mountains and mountains, so the journey is more difficult, and the delay is longer.

Leaving Baguan, in the evening of the same day, they walked to a deserted grassland, looked around, everywhere they looked was barren grass, it was difficult to find some wild fruits to fill their stomachs, even Zhan Wushuang sat on the horse and shook with hunger, and the situation of the soldiers below can be imagined.

Seeing that the elder brother could no longer hold on, the invincible battle ordered everyone to stop advancing, and then asked, "Who else has something to eat?" Everyone looked at each other, and no one was speechless. If there was anything to eat, it would have been eaten a long time ago, so how could it be kept until now?

Seeing that no one answered, Zhan Wuyi sighed faintly: "Don't we even have a mouthful of food now?" At this time, a spy leader of the Ning army stepped forward, grabbed the carrier pigeon that delivered the news, handed it to Zhan Wujian, and said with a swallow of spit: "Invincible general, if you ...... If you're too hungry, ...... Just eat this carrier pigeon!" "This ......" Zhan Invincible looked at the carrier pigeon, sad in his heart, almost shed tears, he has been in the army for more than 20 years, when was it so miserable, even to the extent that he wanted to eat the carrier pigeon to satisfy his hunger, not to mention, this carrier pigeon is not enough to plug his teeth. However, something is better than nothing, and I am nothing, but the eldest brother is a literati, and he can't stand such suffering, and his body and bones can't stand it, so he can eat if he has to! Thinking about it, Zhan Invincible didn't say a word, he reached out and took the carrier pigeon, pinched the pigeon's head with one hand, grabbed its body with the other, and made a gesture to break its neck.

He was just about to exert his strength, when Zhan Wushuang suddenly shouted, "Invincible, wait a minute!" After speaking, he looked at the leader of the scouts and asked, "This carrier pigeon leads to the capital Liangzhou?" "Yes, General Wushuang!" The leader of the scouts nodded and answered.

Zhan Wushuang's heart moved, his eyes quickly rolled, and after thinking for a while, he turned his head and asked Zhong Tiandao: "Your lord, since your cousin Xiao Shang is the head of the county, there must be a lot of soldiers under him, right?" Zhong Tian pondered for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "This ...... I really don't know, maybe 10,000 or 20,000 troops. "One or twenty thousand troops...... Zhan Wushuang muttered, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind, he smiled at Zhan Invincible, and said: "Invincible, we may still have the possibility of breaking through the hegemony." "Oh?" Zhan Wushuang and Zhong Tian and the others were all in high spirits when they heard this, and asked, "What method do you use?" Zhan Wushuang pointed to the carrier pigeon in Zhan Invincible's hand, and said: "I will write a letter to the king, asking the king to send someone to negotiate with the Mo country, so that the Mo country can send troops to attack the Baguan, with the current strength of the Baguan, no matter what, it will not be able to stop the Mo army, as long as the Mo army occupies the Baguan, isn't it easy for us to escape from the country of wind?" "That's right!" After hearing this, Zhan Invincible suddenly patted his head with a sense of enlightenment, with the relationship between the two countries, as long as the king is willing to come forward, Mozambique will definitely help his side, not to mention that the capture of the hegemony will also allow Mozambique to get huge benefits, and Mozambique has no reason to refuse. Zhan Wushu smiled and said, "Big brother, this is a good idea, so let's do it!" "Well, I'll write a letter to the king." At this time, Zhan Wushuang could no longer find a pen and paper, so he could only tear a strip from his clothes, bite his index finger, and write a blood letter in blood, imploring King Ning Yan Chu to use the relationship between Ning and Mo to help them.

Zhan Invincible looked down at the carrier pigeon in his hand, and sighed secretly, fortunately, he should do it slowly, otherwise, it would be equivalent to cutting off his only way to live.

After the battle was invincible, he carefully folded it and tied it to the pigeon's leg, and then he held the pigeon in both hands, prayed silently for a long time, and raised his arms into the air to release the pigeon. It can be said that whether their group of people can get out of trouble depends on whether this carrier pigeon can send the letter back to Ningdu Liangzhou.

After the pigeon was released, everyone finally saw a glimmer of hope, but hope alone was not enough, and everyone was still hungry and couldn't even walk.

At this time, Zhan Wushuang reluctantly ordered people to kill their horses and share the horse meat. For generals, especially civil generals like Zhan Wushuang, the war horse is equivalent to his second life, without the war horse, once the enemy is encountered, the possibility of survival is extremely small, but now there is no way to manage so much, in short, you have to save your life first.

How can the meat of a war horse be enough for more than 100 soldiers to fill their stomachs, the generals are okay to say, the soldiers below almost did not eat a few bites, but drank a stomach of broth, which hooked their appetite to the peak, people looked around, and finally, their eyes fell on the last war horse in the army, Zhong Tian's war horse.

Seeing everyone's intentions, Zhong Tian hurriedly stood up, walked to his horse, and said loudly: "This war horse has followed me for many years, no one should think of fighting it. Whether his horse has followed him for many years, Zhong Tianyou doesn't know, but he knows that once he loses his horse and walks to Zhangyu on two legs, he will be tired to death.

It was better for him not to speak, but as soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers stood up one after another, some with swords, some with guns, and walked towards Zhong Tian silently. No one spoke, but everyone's eyes shone with a strange light, and under their gaze, Zhong Tian felt as if he had been stripped naked and became a meal for the soldiers.

Just as the soldiers were about to walk in front of Zhong Tian, the Wind Chasing Sword and arrow stepped in front of Zhong Tian, staring coldly at everyone.

He didn't need to speak, he didn't need to release the spiritual pressure, he just stood here, and no one dared to take a step forward. That's how strength comes in.

The Wind Chasing Sword may not like Zhong Tian very much, but he is very trusted, and Shenchi's regulations in this regard are also extremely strict, since he accepts money from people, he has to eliminate disasters for others.

Seeing that the Wind Chasing Sword had all stood up, and the soldiers under his command had no intention of retreating, Zhan Wushuang frowned and glanced at Zhan Wushuang beside him.

Now they still have a lot of places to rely on Zhong Tian, not to mention that the Wind Chasing Sword is not so easy to mess with.

Zhan Invincible understood, got up and shouted: "What are you doing, come back to me, sit down!" Under the shouting of Zhan Invincible, all the soldiers looked at each other, put down their weapons one after another, swallowed foam, and sat back in their places.

"These damn bastards still want to eat my war horses......" Zhong Tian looked at Sergeant Ning and muttered indignantly.

The Wind Chaser glanced back at him, didn't say a word, and walked away silently.

Zhong Tian, the Zhan brothers and others walked to Zhangyu for two more days, the wilderness gradually became scarce, and the mountains gradually increased, they could not travel through the mountains, so they could only go up to the official road with courage. On this day, as I was walking forward, I suddenly saw the dust in front of me, the flags were waving, and a large number of soldiers and horses were coming.

Zhan Wushuang, Zhan Invincible, Zhong Tian and the others were all shocked, at this time they were on the mountain road, there were cliffs on both sides, and there was nowhere to hide, how could this be good? Zhong Tian was sweating urgently, and said to Zhan Wushuang urgently: "General Wushuang, we ...... Let's run!" "Run, with our physical strength, how can we outrun the enemy army?" Zhan Wushuang smiled bitterly, and then shouted loudly to the left and right: "If my brother Ning army is ready to face the battle! Even if we want to die on the battlefield today, we must not insult the prestige of our Ning army!" "Yes!" The soldiers below have also let go, and the hardships of the past few days have already made them unbearable, and it is better to die vigorously than to live and suffer! At this time, no one is afraid of death among the officers and men of the Ning army, and people are also ready to fight to the death.

But Zhong Tian didn't want to die yet, seeing that more than 100 Ning soldiers actually put on a posture to face the battle, he felt angry and funny, didn't say a word, turned the horse's head, and said to the Wind Chasing Sword: "Let's go!" After speaking, he urged the horse to run, seeing that the Wind Chasing Sword was standing in place and did not move, Zhong Tian was anxious, rode his horse to his approach, and said in a low voice: "Do you want to go to death with Ning Jun? Run with me!" "Your Majesty, the coming army is fighting the banner of the Peng Kingdom!" "The Wind Chasing Sword squinted his eyes, looked ahead, and suddenly spoke.

"What?" Hearing this, Zhong Tian was stunned, and hurriedly raised his head to look at the road ahead, because the distance was too far, he could only vaguely see the outline of the opponent's army, and he couldn't see clearly what banner was played. "You...... You're not mistaken, are you?" The Wind Chasing Sword replied simply.

"This ......" Zhong Tian couldn't figure it out at this moment, and he didn't know whether it was the enemy or a friendly army coming from the front.

As the army in front of him gradually approached, the scouts in his army rushed over first.

I saw several Peng soldiers in red armor riding war horses, rushing to them at a speed, more than ten meters away, they all grabbed the war horses, and shouted and asked: "Who are you?" Seeing clearly that the other soldier's armor and military uniform were indeed wearing Peng army armor and uniforms, Zhong Tian suddenly came to his senses, and without waiting for others to speak, he first urged the horse to take two steps, took a deep breath, and asked: "I am Zhong Tian, the king of Peng, who are you?"
