"Nahachu has a self-respecting army in Liaodong, and he has always been against the puppet emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and the two sides have each other's heart problems, and this Hailanda only has thousands of soldiers, and he is afraid that he will not get a good face when he goes to Gyeongju, so he wants to ambush the vanguard of our army here. If it is a small victory, it will be better to meet Nahachu. Lan Yu groaned.

Lan Yu fought fiercely all night, coupled with excessive blood loss, he couldn't help but feel sleepy, and slowly said to Wang Bi: "Pass the order, all the sergeants, the armor will not leave the body, the horses will stop outside the tent, the fire gun will be drugged, and rest on the spot." Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and said coldly: "Those captured Tartars will be disposed of after the inquiry, and there is no need to keep them for wasting food." With that, he waved his hand and asked Wang Bi and the two soldiers to withdraw from the tent.

Wang Bi bowed down and withdrew from the tent after getting the order, and the "processing" that Lan Yu said in his mouth, Wang Bi, who had followed him for several years, naturally understood it. Although as early as Xu Dachang, during the Northern Expedition in the spring, Zhu Yuanzhang strictly ordered all armies not to indiscriminately kill the captured and surrendered Yuan army. But have Chang Yuchun and Lan Yu killed less over the years? As the so-called generals are outside, the king's order is not subject to it. At this time, the emperor was far away, and no one was in charge of doing things, so he was naturally the main general of the blue jade horse.

However, it was said that Zhu Quan galloped on horseback, closely pursued the centurion of the Northern Yuan Dynasty who killed Wang Dahu, passed through the fierce melee of the Ming soldiers and Mongolian light cavalry, jumped over the burning tents and baggage vehicles, and turned a deaf ear to the roar of fire and arrows around him, and in an instant he had left the camp and disappeared into the dark vast grassland.

The centurion saw that Zhu Quan was wearing a general's costume, and he had the intention to capture him alive, so that he could ask for merit in front of Captain Highlander. It was to deliberately gallop the horse fast and slow, not to leave Zhu Quan, four or five zhang in front of him, bent on luring him far away, and then slowly concocting it.

At this time, Zhu Quan recalled the tragic situation of Wang Dahu being cut off by this centurion, and the hideous and smug smile under the light of the other party's firelight, he couldn't help gritting his teeth and secretly said: If Wang Dahu hadn't pushed me, I'm afraid that my life would be in danger, and I would have to kill this kid. .com thought of this, took the bow and arrow from the side of the saddle, and shot it. But after all, he has a limited time to practice bows and arrows, so what kind of accuracy does he have when he opens a bow in such a galloping horse? Three arrows were fired in succession, and all of them landed in the air.

As a nomadic tribe, the centurion grew up on horseback since he was a child, and his riding skills were naturally extremely exquisite, and he heard that the arrows shot by Zhu Quan's bow were completely inaccurate, and his heart was even more relieved, and he couldn't help laughing. After chasing Zhu Quan several times, he suddenly turned the horse's head again, ran out in a different direction, and pulled the distance away when he landed.

Zhu Quan heard the other party's smug laughter, and his heart hated it even more.

More than ten zhang behind Zhu Quan, there was a person riding a "dark cloud covered snow" horse galloping, it was Xu Ying. She turned her head to look at the pitch-black grassland behind her, knowing that she was far away from Lan Yu's camp, she was anxious, and said in her heart: I heard my father say in the past that these Mongolian Tatars are superb in riding and archery, and they are accustomed to using this wandering technique to lure the Ming generals to chase after them, and then shoot them with bows and arrows. This kid is chasing after him so desperately, isn't he in the other party's arms? Thinking of this, he mentioned his internal force and said in a longitudinal voice: "Don't chase anymore, let's go back." Originally, the "Dark Cloud Cover Snow" divine horse she rode was abnormal, and she could catch up with Zhu Quan, but she had to block the arrows shot by the several Beiyuan light horsemen behind her with the three-foot sword in her hand from time to time, so she could only follow Zhu Quan inseparably.

Zhu Quan roared: "Go back, I'll come back after killing this kid." As soon as the words fell, he heard the wind ringing in his ears, and there was a pain in his shoulder, and it was an arrow that the centurion listened to and turned to shoot, and suddenly injured his fingers, and the long sword in his hand fell out of his hand.

Zhu Quan stretched out his hand and pulled out the feather arrow on his left shoulder, stretched out his hand and touched the wound, although it was bleeding, but the arrow cluster only slightly injured the flesh, and he was slightly relieved, and said in his heart: Fortunately, I am still wearing silk clothes in my armor, if not, this arrow is only afraid that it will be difficult to bear. Oriental || .com at this time, his mind gradually sobered up, looked at the direction around him, a dark grassland, and secretly screamed bitterly in his heart, it turned out that at this time he couldn't even guess the direction of the blue jade camp. stopped at the moment, and waited for Xu Ying to come to his side. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the sound of feather arrows breaking through the air, and hurriedly dodged the two feather arrows sideways, and said with a wry smile: "Why are there still Tartars chasing you?" It turned out that he was bent on chasing and killing the centurion of the Northern Yuan, but he didn't know that there were still five or six Yuan soldiers following him and Xu Ying.

Xu Ying used the long sword in his hand to block the feathered arrows of the pursuers, and was about to speak, but he heard a wail from the horse under Zhu Quan's crotch, but he was hit by the arrow shot by the centurion and knelt down. Zhu Quan had no choice but to jump off the horse, he knew that at this time in this open grassland in the face of these several Northern Yuan cavalry who were good at riding and archery, it was already extremely dangerous, and he thought: Xu Ying, this girl would not have fallen to such a situation if it wasn't for me, she still has a chance to escape riding the "Dark Cloud Cover Snow" alone, thinking of this, he reached out and kicked the "Dark Cloud Cover Snow" buttocks hard, and roared: "You can escape alone, don't worry about me anymore." ”

"Dark clouds cover snow" followed Zhu Quan for a long time, and saw that the master refused to leave, but he did not move.

Xu Yingjiao reprimanded: "What nonsense. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhu Quan's collar and carried him on the horse's back, sat behind him, struck back with an elbow, hit Zhu Quan's acupoint, gritted his teeth and ran out of the horse, and went straight out in front of him without knowing the direction.

Zhu Quan wanted to jump off the horse, but Xu Ying couldn't move, he smiled bitterly in his heart, but he was very moved in his heart, and said in his heart: This girl is really good to me, and she refuses to leave me in such a dangerous situation.

Xu Ying rode her horse and galloped wildly at this time, and said, "Hold me tight." As soon as the words came out, Fang felt that something was wrong, and his face was immediately red, fortunately he turned his back on Zhu Quan, but he was never seen. The heart was like a deer, and he secretly thought: At this time, it is important to escape, everything is in power, but I can't care so much.

Hearing this, Zhu Quan hurriedly stretched out his hand to hug Xu Ying's slender waist tightly, so as not to fall off the horse's back during the gallop.

When the centurion of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and several subordinates heard the sound, they hurriedly chased all the way to the sound of horses' hooves, bent on arresting Zhu Quan, an official, to receive the reward.

Although the "dark clouds cover the snow" are strong on the feet, after all, after carrying two people, they can't get rid of the pursuers behind them.

Zhu Quan secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, and said in his heart: Just now I was bent on chasing and killing others, but at this time, it is good that Xu Ying, the girl, will be hunted down and killed with me. I was regretting my impulsiveness when I suddenly heard a bull's horn in the distance in the quiet night, but the direction was southwest.

Xu Ying said happily in her heart: "It seems to be the horn in the Blue Jade Army." Then he turned his horse's head and ran in the direction of the sound of the trumpet.

The centurion of the Northern Yuan behind him heard the sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and knew that the two Ming troops were galloping towards the place where the horn sounded, but he couldn't help but be happy in his heart, so he also hurried up and followed.

Seeing that there was a small hill not far ahead, Xu Ying rode her horse and galloped up, and as soon as she reached the top of the slope, she saw a hazy figure more than ten zhang away and roared something, but she didn't understand it at all. In a wide valley at the bottom of the hillside, countless fires were burning here and there, and thousands of people were gathering in the valley below.

The man on the hillside ignored the answer, and immediately opened his bow and arrows, and roared in a language they did not understand at all. At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves behind him sounded, and the pursuers were already a few feet away behind him.

Zhu Quan and Xu Ying saw that this group of people was not at all like Lan Yu's army, so they couldn't help but look at each other, showed a wry smile, and thought in unison: Could it be the Yuan army that attacked us just now? That's good, it's self-defeating.

In the Yuan army in the valley, a tall man dressed as a captain was instructing his subordinates to count the assembled Yuan army while looking around. It was on the order of the Northern Yuan Dynasty that he went to Liaodong to reinforce Nahachu, and not long ago, he took advantage of the night to raid Hailanda in the Blue Jade Division.

Highlanda turned his head to look at the Yuan army who were lying or sitting on the fire on all sides to keep warm, and said in his heart: This place is already dozens of miles away from those Ming troops, and it is located in the valley between two hillsides, so those Ming troops can't see the smoke and fire, and it should be difficult to find us. In another hour, it will be dawn, so you must set off before dawn and go to Gyeongju before you make plans. At this moment, she heard the warning signal from the scout on the hillside on the left, and Highlanda's heart sank, and she hurriedly listened with her ear, and put her mind at ease.

It turns out that these nomadic tribes grew on horseback, often with their ears close to the ground, and even if there were hundreds of horses galloping outside the country, it was difficult to escape their ears.

Hearing that the enemy was not numerous, Highlander waved his hand and ordered his two centurions to bring hundreds of Yuan troops each, and flank them on the left and right sides, and rushed towards the top of the slope.

At this time, two hours had passed since the Yuan army attacked the Ming army under Lan Yu's command and Zhu Quan jumped out of the camp. At this gallop, Zhu Quan's mount was already tired.

Xu Ying and Zhu Quan saw a large group of figures rushing up the slope and surrounding the two of them, and they couldn't help but feel cold in their hearts, knowing that under the encirclement of so many Yuan troops who were skilled in horsemanship, it would be difficult to escape again.

The centurion of the Yuan army, who had driven the two of them all the way here, stepped forward and said a few words in Mongolian in a loud voice, indicating that the clansmen should not release arrows and capture Zhu Quan and Xu Yingsheng.
