Chapter 176: Back to the Tiger Prison Pass

The white tiger couldn't hide his excitement, strode forward, and helped the officer up with his own hands, and it was not until this moment that he could see the faces of the soldiers who were obscured by the moonlight.

Each one is a familiar face, they are the elite of the old department of the winner army who followed him to quell the Xirong rebellion, the soldiers are covered with blood, and everyone is scarred.

Even if he didn't come to the battlefield in person, the white tiger could think about how tragic the soldiers of the winning army who came out of the customs this time experienced, but even so, the fighting spirit and determination of the soldiers did not dissipate, and there was anger burning in everyone's eyes.

This is the old department of the winner's army, the iron wall of the peace of the eastern capital, which makes the Xirong army frightened, and the tiger and wolf division of the Zhu people in the west who have not been able to raise their heads for more than ten years.

The white tiger's face showed a look of relief, his eyes swept over every soldier, and finally stopped on Ling Cang, who was already seriously injured and unconscious at the moment,

The latter has been bumpy all the way since he left Chang'an, and after being attacked by Han Gonggong, a master of the Great Interior, he was highly poisoned, and his meridians were blocked, and he was surrounded by Buddhism in the mountains and forests east of Qiancheng, and fell off the cliff.

After years of injuries, his body was already overwhelmed, and he witnessed the tragic death of the Ning family brothers and sisters and the sacrifice of Guan Leopard, watching the people around him fall one by one.

In order to protect the latter's safe arrival at the Tiger Prison Pass, the officer had to order to abandon the war horse and take turns to carry Ling Cang back along the mountain road.

The white tiger took two steps forward and walked to Ling Cang's side, which was carried by four soldiers, and when he saw the latter's face, he was stunned at first, and then his face showed excitement.

His memory of Ling Cang can be said to be very vivid, when outside the Valhalla Temple, he and Princess Chenxi together saved the ancestral hall and the people who went to worship from the Imperial Forest Army.

Later, he lived with King En in his general military mansion for a short time, Bai Hu only knew that Ling Cang was the aboriginal of Tiger Prison Pass before, but he never expected that he was the orphan of Zhenxi General Win Wuxian who had been missing for 16 years.

Looking at Ling Cang, who was seriously injured and unconscious, the white tiger's eyes were red, 16 years ago, his benefactor, Zhenxi General Win Wuxian was killed by traitorous ministers, and a loyal winner was slaughtered all over the house,

In Baihu's memory, Ling Cang was only a three-year-old child at that time, but this child suffered the tragedy of the destruction of his father when he was a child.

Ling Cang's life was greatly threatened when he was a child, and he was wanted by the emperor and the imperial court for 16 years.

Thinking that he was used by traitors after his identity was exposed, charged with poisoning King Han, and having to face the pursuit and killing of various forces every day, Bai Hu's heart felt a sourness, he sighed, and said slowly to the sleeping Ling Cang,

"Child, I've suffered you in the past 16 years, don't worry, as long as I still have a breath of white tiger, I will never let you be threatened again",

From the time he learned that General Win's son was still alive, he secretly swore in his heart that he must save this child for General Win.

The white tiger's eyes were like torches, and he looked at every accompanying soldier again,

"Brothers, you are all good, everyone has gone through twists and turns this time, and brought back General Win's long-lost son, I, Baihu, thank you for General Win",

The white tiger clenched his fists and said sincerely to every scarred winner,

The officer at the head was full of sorrow,

"General, our line did not disgrace the winner's army, we were ambushed by the second-way pursuit troops east of Ping'an City, the brothers fought with their lives, and we defeated our enemy 5 times as much",

The white tiger was stunned when he heard this, the soldiers were covered with blood and scars, and he guessed that Guan Bao and his party must have encountered interception and obstruction on the way back, but due to the geographical location,

In addition, the imperial court ordered the Shangyang County Government to suppress the battle situation of the annihilation of the Second Route Pursuit Army, so the encounter that occurred east of Ping'an City White Tiger is not known now.

At this moment, his face was full of surprise, and he looked at the officer and asked in shock,

"What, are you saying that you were ambushed by the second-way pursuit troops on the way back to Tiger Prison Pass, what happened, you tell me in detail",

The officer's face was solemn, and he immediately nodded, looked at the white tiger and replied,

"A few months ago, it was rumored from the outside world that Ying Gongzi was besieged and killed by Buddhism in the mountains and forests east of Qiancheng, and was finally knocked off the cliff and died on the spot, General Guan did not believe it, and led his brothers to search the hidden area under the mountains and forests, where there was indeed a small town called Ping'an City, and Ying Gongzi was found in a small village near the town."

White Tiger nodded, Guan Bao sent back the news at that time, and asked him to take people to the high ground 30 miles east of Tiger Prison Pass, the time was exactly five days ago, from Ping'an City along the mountain road to Tiger Prison Pass is only two days away, Guan Bao and others have not returned, Bai Hu thought that Guan Leopard may have suffered something on the way back, but he didn't expect that it was a fight with the second road pursuit force,

"What happened later, how did you get discovered by the Second Route Pursuit Army",

The white tiger looked solemn, looked at the officer and asked subconsciously,

The officer continued, reporting to the White Tiger what had happened to them east of Ping'an City.

"When we were looking for Win Gongzi in Ping'an City, we found traces of the Second Road Pursuit Army, and the guards of the Jingshi Imperial Forest Guards suddenly appeared in a remote town in Zhongzhou, presumably they were also running for Win Gongzi, but there were not many of them, General Guan concluded that they were a search force sent by the Second Road Pursuit Army, and he didn't care at the time, but just sent a few brothers to keep an eye on it, and after we found Win Gongzi, there was nothing abnormal on the side of the Royal Forest Army."

The officer's eyes were red, and he paused and continued,

"But we didn't expect them to notice us a long time ago, and the day after we left Ping'an City, the soldiers in charge of keeping an eye and purchasing dry food disappeared inexplicably, General Guan noticed the abnormality, and ordered the troops to quickly move into the mountain road, who wants to ......, who sincerely thinks",

The corners of the officer's mouth twitched, and his eyes showed deep remorse,

"They have already arranged an ambush, when the troops pass through the open land, the second way of chasing and killing troops roared, the originally silent land changed for a while, we realized that we were in the ambush of the enemy soldiers, but it was too late, the royal forest iron cavalry roared like a tide, in order to protect the safety of Gongzi Ying, the brothers fought with their lives, the encounter east of Ping'an City, although we won, but it was a tragic victory",

The officer was agitated, his eyes were red,

"Of the more than 300 old brothers in the old department, only 20 of us survived, including General Guan...... General Guan he ......",

Speaking of Guan Bao, the officer's face was full of remorse, and his head was buried deeply

Bai Hu's face was ugly, looking at the officer's appearance, an ominous premonition immediately rose in his heart, and he looked at the latter and said eagerly,

"Tell me quickly, what's wrong with Guan Bao, why didn't he come back",
