Chapter 431: Go Back
The sky was blue, and a group of city defenders were repairing the broken walls.
Seeing the two adults in Qianzhou come out with the woman in the red cloak, they all stopped their work and poked their heads out.
Ding Zhaoshu clasped his hands into fists and said goodbye to Zhao Fuling with a smile: "This time the danger in Qianzhou, thanks to Miss Zhao coming to help, Miss Zhao wants to have a smooth journey!" ”
Yan Ming also waved his hands and said: "Zhengrong Pass has received the news, Ganzhou will be fine, Miss Zhao and put her mind at ease." ”
Zhao Lingchong hugged her fists at the two of them and saluted back, and after signaling to Mrs. Yan who came out, she turned over and got on the horse.
Under the sun, her delicate face was as white as jade, with a young and beautiful atmosphere: "Thank you two adults for your hospitality, if you have the opportunity in the future, the younger generation will definitely visit again." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Ding Zhao stroked his beard and smiled.
Yan Ming didn't say much because his wife was beside him, but nodded implicitly.
Zhao Fuling didn't say anything more, led dozens of people behind her, and quickly whipped out of Qizhou.
Seeing a team of people in the distance, Ding Zhaoshu sighed and said with hot eyes: "Such a good girl, I don't know which kid is cheaper?" If it weren't for the fact that my son was still young, I would have asked her to be my daughter-in-law. ”
Even if you don't have a promising son, having a daughter-in-law who can fight together in all directions is a very long-faced thing!
Yan Ming didn't talk, for his own situation, this kind of topic is too sensitive, so it's better not to mention it.
The two chattered a few words at the entrance of the city, and went to work separately.
Zhao Fuling led the men and horses all the way wildly, and the sound of horses' hooves fell jaggedly, raising bursts of flying dust, shaking the entire official road with a bang.
When they went to Qizhou, they only had three horses, and they relied on their feet to drive the whole way.
But now it was different, they captured dozens of horses from Tartars, as well as a lot of weapons and baggage. Returning to Ganzhou is not only a return with honor, but more importantly, these trophies can enrich the city's arsenal.
Therefore, everyone's hearts were on fire, and they wished to rush back early to show off to the brothers beside them.
However, although the distance between the two states is quite close, because the time to leave the city is not early, and the situation in the five states of Anxi is not clear now, everyone is still more vigilant and cautious along the way.
Spent the night outside the city, and experienced a small battle in the second half of the night.
The other party was the Tartar army that was repulsed when they were in Qianzhou, and they finally scattered and separated because of the embarrassment, forming several small groups of remnants.
The remnants thought that Zhao Fuling was here to pursue them, and Zhao Fuling thought that there was an ambush on the opposite side, and both sides were in a state of panic, so they raised their knives and hit them.
This small battle broke out suddenly, catching both sides a little off guard.
Fortunately, with Zhao Fuling in charge, the morale of the army here is stable and high, and it is easy to deal with it.
After exterminating this remnant army, Zhao Fuling remembered the people who had been slaughtered in the whole village, and her brows kept twisting.
Ah Yue saw her thoughts, pondered for a moment and took the initiative to say: "Girl, why don't your subordinates lead the troops to search for the remnants?" ”
If the Tartar army is allowed to run around outside the city, it will only be the innocent people scattered outside. At least there is a way out for the people in the city, but what about the mountain people and other people outside?
Zhao Fuling also means this, but there are not many of them, and more than a dozen brothers have been injured in the past two days, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong.
It's okay to run into a small group of remnants of these dozens of people, but if you run into a large number of people, I'm afraid you'll have to fold your own people there.
Seeing Zhao Fuling's hesitation, Ah Yue insisted instead: "Don't worry, girl, if there are many people on the other side, we will retreat in time." While we search for the remnants of the army, we will smoothly transfer the people between the two states into the city, and then we will return. ”
Ah Yue's arrangement is indeed in line with Zhao Fuling's wishes.
She looked around, finally looked at Thirteen and Fang Qiu, and said thoughtfully: "Thirteen, why don't you take Fang Qiu with Ah Yue?" ”
Both of them are outstandingly capable, and if something happens to one of them, the other can still preside over the overall situation.
After she returned to Ganzhou, she was surrounded by her own people, and she didn't need to be protected.
Moreover, if it really comes to martial arts, Thirteen is not her opponent, let alone Fang Qiu.
Thirteen hesitated, and after Fang Qiu quickly told the story of the slaughter of the people, the last doubt in his heart was instantly dispelled.
just before agreeing, but insisted: "The girl can't leave no one around, the subordinates and Ah Yue will go, and Fang Qiu will stay." ”
Fang Qiu still wanted to search for the remnants of the soldiers, but when he heard this, he touched his nose and reluctantly let out an "oh".
Zhao Fuling smiled helplessly and said, "If you want to go, then go together." ”
Fang Qiu glanced at Thirteen, and saw that the other party's face was serious and dark, so he changed his words very knowingly: "I don't want to, I'll follow the girl." ”
Leaving these words, the other party's expression improved slightly.
The people and horses arranged by Zhao Fuling for them are still voluntary.
These city defenders fought two battles in a row, and now it was the time of blood and belligerence, and they were clamoring to sign up. Even a few lame legs wrapped around their arms were clamoring to go, and they were ridiculed by Fang Qiu before they gave up.
Because the pursuit of remnants and the need for highly mobile troops when retreating, Zhao Fuling's suggestion was to use all cavalry.
There were only about forty horses captured by the crowd, and in the end forty-two people were also decided.
The war horses were handed over to these people, and Zhao Fuling took the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled, dragging the captured baggage weapons back to Ganzhou at dawn.
The city wall of Ganzhou had long been on guard, and when he saw Zhao Fuling's iconic red cloak coming from afar, he immediately opened the city gate and welcomed people in.
When everyone returned to the familiar place, their minds relaxed, and the Ganzhou garrison also came to greet them in person.
Seeing that Zhao Lingling only brought back more than 20 people, the elderly garrison couldn't help but have red eyes and tears.
Before he could say hello to Zhao Lingling, Fang Qiu said first: "Lord Liu, don't cry, the other brothers have gone to chase the remnants." Don't worry, the girls have brought you back, and there is no one missing. ”
Liu Shoubei's tears were instantly held back, and he even choked in his throat for a moment.
After his face pale for a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "Does that girl want to go back to wash and rest first?" ”
Zhao Fuling didn't have time to go back to Du Mansion, and waved her hand directly: "Let's go see Master Zhang first, there is something important to say." ”
A few people went to the guard mansion first and told the two parents in Ganzhou about the general situation.
Liu and Zhang are both Li Jingmo's henchmen, and their attitude towards Zhao Fuling has naturally always been very important. In addition, in the mountains of Ganjun, Zhao Fuling led people to exterminate the enemy spies, and now he has successfully supported Qizhou with a surprising move......
Zhao Fuling's image and status are almost equivalent to Li Jingmo in their hearts.
Liu Shoubei also knew very well that the army of Zhengrong Pass was pressing the border at this time, and even if Li Jingmo received a letter asking for help, he might not be able to spare time to return to these state cities.
I'm afraid they have to bear the pressure of the Tartar siege.
