Chapter 18: Tongue Grabbing

Qin Feng's idea is also to go to Runan, and Zhang Min also meant this before, but Qin Feng is not stupid enough to regard Runan as a long-term base, that is unrealistic!

Runan can only be used as a shelter for the time being, Cao Cao must have won or lost with Yuan Shao, before that, this person will definitely find a way to stabilize the rear, and then Runan will become Cao Cao's main attack.

At present, it is necessary to find a way to get from Lujiang to Runan, and the choice of route has become the top priority.

When Yang Hong and Yan Xiang were eating, Qin Feng said: "Just now Yang Gong said that we can go to Runan to live, and I also intend to go, I don't know which way the two gentlemen think is the most appropriate way to go?" ”

Yang Hong put down the food, got up and arched his hand: "I thought I should go to Jiangxia!" ”

"Oh? Please teach me, sir! Qin Feng hugged his fists.

Yang Hong immediately talked about the world, "The shortest route to Runan is to go directly to the northwest to cross the mountains and mountains, but this road does not say whether the Jiangdong Army is fortified, even if the captain leads the troops into the mountains smoothly, in the cold winter season, the risk is unpredictable, and maybe you will be trapped in the mountains by wind and snow on the way, so this road is not optional!" ”

"I can't go north, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's main force is in the north, and I'm waiting here to throw myself into the net!"

"To the east, in Lujiang County, although the Jiangdong Army has not yet controlled the situation, most of Jiujiang County further east is already within the Jiangdong sphere of influence, so marching east will make us fall into encirclement!"

"Don't mention it to the south, we just came from Anhui City, and I'm afraid that Sun Ce has transferred more people from Jiangdong at this time!"

"There is only one way left for Du Wei, that is, to go west to Jiangxia, Jiangxia Taishou Huang Zu and Sun Ce have a grudge against their father, why don't Du Wei borrow Huang Zu to deal with the Jiangdong Army?"

Qin Feng listened, "We have more than 3,000 people, even if we get rid of the pursuit of the Jiangdong army, I am afraid that before we enter Jiangxia, we will be carefully explored by Jiangxia, and whether we can be accepted by Huang Zu is not yet known. ”

This analysis surprised Yang Hong and Yan Xiang, they didn't expect Qin Feng, the leader of the mountain bandits, to think of this layer, it's really not simple!

I saw that Yang Hong was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if Huang Zu leads troops to stop him, he is willing to go and persuade Du Wei to take people into Jiangxia to avoid temporarily!" Du Wei, please think about it, Huang Zu and Sun Ce have a grudge against his father, and he only Sun Ce will never give up, but anything that can make Sun Ce uncomfortable, he is very happy to see that the second robbery of Anhui City has already slapped Sun Ce in the face, how can Huang Zu not be happy? How can you not accept the captain? ”

That's the reason, Qin Feng nodded, picked up the wine cup and said with a smile: "Mr. is reasonable, I respect Mr. ”

"Lieutenant is polite, polite, haha!"

While the three of them were drinking, several figures appeared on the edge of the woods two miles south of the camp.

"Captain Wu, huh······ Look, it should be the camp of the bandit Qin Fengbu, but I didn't expect the camp of a mere bandit to be so neat! One of the sentries rubbed his hands together as he spoke, shivering with cold.

In such a cold weather, it was not easy for these Jiangdong Army cavalry to follow Qin Feng's men and horses all the way here, and everyone was covered with a layer of snow, which also increased their camouflage.

Wu Chang exhaled hot air, "Look at the size of this camp and the trees in the camp, I am afraid that there are no less than 3,000 people, I was confused before, thinking that there were only more than 1,000 people, so we have to quickly pass the news to General Zhou!" ”

At this moment, the mutation protruded, "buzzing ······" The sound of bowstrings sounded, and a wave of sharp arrows came from all directions.

"Whoosh ······"

Four of the five Jiangdong Army detectives were shot on the spot, and two of them fell from their horses.

The remaining three were shocked, and Wu Chang was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder, and he shouted: "Turn around and retreat!" ”

The three of them immediately turned their horses' heads and galloped.

The snow was so deep that the horses couldn't run fast, and suddenly a rope straightened in the snow in front of them, and the three horses neighed and fell to the ground one after another, and the three Jiangdong County detectives also fell out of their horses.

"Kill-" The shout of killing came out, and twenty or thirty armor soldiers rushed out from all directions in the woods, and these people were fierce one by one, dragging large swords and spears to surround and kill.

The three Jiangdong Army scouts quickly got up from the snow, drew their swords, and covered each other back to back.

"Stop!" With a loud roar, the soldiers who rushed over stopped and surrounded the three Jiangdong Army scouts in the middle.

Huang Yi walked into the circle with a knife and stepped on the snow to separate the two armor soldiers, "You can't escape, put down your weapons, my captain or Ke Rao'er will die!" ”

The three scouts looked at each other, nervous, and did not speak.

One of the surrounding armor soldiers shouted, "Put down your weapons!" ”

The others shouted in unison: "Put it down! ”

After several successive shouts, one of the scouts was timid and dropped his blade, followed by another who also threw down his blade, leaving only the captain, with a sad face, "Wait······ Ay! ”

As soon as the hand was released, the knife also fell into the snow.

Huang Yi breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand: "Tie it up and take it to see the captain!" ”

In the big tent, Qin Feng was drinking with Yang Hong and Yan Xiang, listening to their analysis of the situation, I have to say that there is a complete difference between having a strategist and not having a strategist, and these two have analyzed the current situation of this bandit and miscellaneous army very thoroughly.

Yang Hong also set a short-term goal for Qin Feng, if he wanted to get rid of the pursuit of the Jiangdong army, he could only use the power of Huang Zu and find a way to leave after entering Jiangxia.

"Report - Captain Qiyu, Huang Junhou led people to capture five Jiangdong Army scouts three miles south of the camp, two of them were killed on the spot, and the other three surrendered after being surrounded!"

Qin Feng slapped the table and said happily: "Okay! Find Lu Sheng over, let him interrogate them one by one, pry open the mouths of these three people, and maybe learn some of the movements of the Jiangdong Army from their mouths! ”

"No!"

After drinking, Qin Feng ordered people to arrange separate tents and warm clothes for Yang Hong and Yan Xiang.

"The two gentlemen have been tired for the past few days, and they will go to rest first, and if there is anything, they will ask the two gentlemen for advice!"

"Thank you, Captain, we're leaving!"

Delivered to the door of the big tent, Qin Feng looked at the backs of the two thoughtfully.

Soon, Lu Sheng came over to report the results of the interrogation.

"Captain, I have interrogated the three Jiangdong Army scouts separately one by one, one of them couldn't stand the torture and died on the spot, and the other two confessed!"

Qin Feng immediately asked, "Is there any movement of the Jiangdong Army?" ”

Lu Sheng said: "According to the confessions of these two people, I got a total of two pieces of news: first, Sun Ce has returned to Anhui City on a fast horse, Sun Jing was transferred back to Jiangdong to sit in the town, and ordered to transfer 20,000 horses from Jiangdong to Jiujiang County and Lujiang County in four ways, these people and horses are all controlled by Zhou Yu, and they will lay a net to encircle and suppress our department!" ”

"Two groups of people crossed the river from Moling and came all the way to the west; Two groups of people crossed the river from Danyang to the north, and the four groups of people were led by the generals Han Dang, Zhu Zhi, Xu Kun, and Li Shutong! ”

After hearing this, Qin Feng immediately spread out the map and looked at it, and then frowned.

"Why, just for the sake of my rabble, can you use such a big fight?"

At this time, Lu Sheng said again: "Du Wei, there is another news!" ”

"Say!"

Lu Sheng hesitated for a moment and said: "There is a military order issued in the Jiangdong Army, saying that Miss Qiao has been taken away by the lieutenant and has been killed, everyone does not have to scruple when they see us, they will kill and avenge Miss Qiao!" ”

"What? They even said Miss Qiao was dead? Is the news true? Qin Feng involuntarily stood up, looking incredulous.

Lu Sheng said: "There shouldn't be a fake, those two scouts are like this!" ”

Qin Feng was silent for a while, then got up and walked out: "Take me to meet those two!" ”

"No!"

When he arrived at the tent where he was being held, Qin Feng walked in and found that one of them was tied to a wooden pillar, and his body was beaten to a bloody pulp.

"Say what you know again!"

The man slowly raised his head and said the news he knew one by one.

After listening to this, Qin Feng asked, "Who is Xu Kun?" Who is Li Shu? ”

The waiter said: "Xu Kun is the nephew of the first lord and the cousin of the lord!" Li Shu, a native of Runan, was a subordinate of Liu Xuan, the former assassin of Yangzhou, and when the lord settled Jiangdong, this person chose to take refuge in the lord! ”

Qin Feng touched his chin, "Xu Kun is Sun Ce's cousin, it's not surprising that he is a general, why can an unknown person like Li Shu serve as a general under Sun Ce?" ”

The scout confessed: "A few months ago, the imperial court sent a new Yangzhou assassin Yan Xiang to take office, Li Shu was ordered to assassinate Yan Xiang, and was appointed as a general for his merits, and this time he was appointed as the Taishou of Lujiang by the lord!" ”

I see!

"Do you know where these four-way armies will cross the river?"

"The villain doesn't know!"

Qin Feng saw that this person didn't look like a lie, and asked again: "Who ordered the news that Miss Qiao had been killed by us, who ordered it to be announced to the outside world and asked Jiang Dongjun to see us and kill him?" ”

"Naturally, my lord!"

"Hey, your lord?"

Qin Feng dared to vouch for his head, this must be Zhou Yu's meaning, Sun Ce would never do this privately!

With a "bang", Qin Feng pulled out his waist knife and stabbed the scout to death.

A familiar warm current flowed up the arm into the body, entrenched between the chest and abdomen.

He then went to another tent and interrogated the last scout again, and was told that he drew his sword and stabbed the last scout again, but no warm current entered his body.

Qin Feng didn't know what this kind of warm current that could occasionally be obtained after killing the enemy, and he didn't have time to study this now, so he could only put this matter aside for the time being, waiting for him to escape and ascend to heaven before studying and pondering.

Coming out of the interrogation tent, Qin Feng let out a sigh of relief, he turned his head and accidentally found that Xiao Qiao's tent was still lit, and he hesitated and walked over.

"Captain!" The soldiers standing guard saluted Qin Feng.

"Well, does Miss Qiao sleep?" Qin Feng asked.

"We don't know!"

Qin Feng lifted the curtain and saw that Xiao Qiao was wrapping himself in a mattress, retreating to the corner of the tent with his hands and feet, and looking at him with guarded eyes.

He walked in, but did not continue to advance, hesitated for a moment and said: "In the evening, I caught a few Jiangdong Army scouts three miles away from the camp, and according to their confessions······ The Jiangdong Army has issued notices in various places, giving orders in the army, saying······ You're dead, so everyone won't have to worry about seeing me! ”

Xiao Qiao's face suddenly became bloodless, and his whole body trembled.

"This order can only be a decision made by Zhou Yu, Sun Ce can't do it! You ······ There's no need to think about it, it's come to this, look ahead, take a good rest, if the snow stops tomorrow, I'll have to continue to hurry! ”
