Chapter 786: Determination

To search for Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng, it is naturally impossible to have only Tie Niu's team. Massive armies, scattered in all directions.

It is also a miracle that Zhao Mancheng was able to escape here.

At the last moment.

A team of eleven spies came here. Three of them were tanma. When they saw this scene, they didn't think much of it.

Almost at the same time, the three of them took off their horses' bows, drew out the arrows in their quivers, and bent their bows and arrows in one go. Shot at Zhao Mancheng.

Tanma's archery skills are naturally not bad.

Three arrows enveloped Zhao Mancheng. Zhao Mancheng was wearing armor, and he was not afraid. But he was wounded in more than a dozen places, and the wounds never healed, all of them were suppurated.

If you suffer another flesh wound, I'm afraid it's dangerous.

After making a decision, Zhao Mancheng withdrew the silver spear, bent down and dodged three arrows on the horse's back. With a pull of the horse's reins, he turned the horse's head and galloped towards the Yalu River.

"Count on your fate."

"Withdraw troops."

Zhao Mancheng said.

Zhao Mancheng's personal soldiers received the order, but they first rushed forward and killed, and then fought and retreated. Everyone gathered around Zhao Mancheng and came to the shore.

Zhao Mancheng abandoned his horse and got on the boat. The rest of the people didn't care that there was still armor on their bodies, and they threw themselves into the water. The strong swims by himself, the weak clutches the boat, and follows.

Fortunately, the weather is hot and the river is warm. Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to cross the Yalu River with armor on their bodies.

Tie Niu escaped death, suddenly exhaled a long breath, and then a cold sweat poured out. It's one thing to be enlightened.

Whether you want to die or not is another thing.

He is a dignified man, young and in the prime of life, whether he can die or don't want to die.

"Chase." Tie Niu reacted quickly, and didn't even have time to pick up the horse lance that fell to the ground, and led the soldiers to the shore, but saw that the boat Zhao Mancheng was riding had already drifted across the ocean.

"Whoosh."

Soldiers with bows and arrows were busy shooting arrows at the boat. But the river wind was quite strong, blowing away the fog and deflecting the arrows.

Zhao Mancheng stood behind the boat, looking at the shore, facing the arrows that fell near the boat, his expression did not move. After a while, he shouted: "Listen, people on the shore. ”

"I know that this time Goguryeo offended Wu Nian ruthlessly. With his temper, he must have the heart to devour Goguryeo. ”

"I have benefited a lot from this expedition to Liaodong."

"He has the heart to recover Liaodong and protect the territory and the people. I also have the ambition to defend the land and serve the country. He dared to cross the Yalu River and set foot in the land of Goguryeo. I will let him die in Goguryeo. ”

Zhao Mancheng's voice was loud, and the words pierced the air, stepped through the wind, and clearly reached the ears of Tie Niu and others.

The crowd was discolored, and anger filled their chests.

Tie Niu was furious and shouted: "The general of the defeated army still dares to be arrogant and arrogant. Waiting for my generals to reorganize their armies and horses, it will be easy to sweep away Goguryeo. Then pull out the corpses of the kings of Goguryeo and whip the corpses. ”

Zhao Mancheng didn't answer, just stood with his hands in his hands, and sneered. He then bent down and entered the cabin.

But the body is too painful. In the battle just now, he had done his best, and now it was the end of the crossbow, and he was really dying.

"Quick. Take off my armor and help me heal. Zhao Mancheng sat down, sweating like pulp, his face was purple, and he called out to his soldiers.

Shore.

Tie Niu watched Zhao Mancheng slowly arrive at the opposite shore by boat. He sighed and said, "Although I'm very happy to have picked up a life, I'm going to let the tiger go back to the mountain." ”

"Nope. I cursed him to die on the road. ”

Tie Niu scolded and scolded, and then greeted: "Brothers." Pack up, find a village to rest and rest, and we'll go home. ”

"Yes." The soldiers shouted yes, and then briefly treated the seriously wounded soldiers, and searched for fishing villages along the river.

..........

It was midday.

Outside Yangwu City. The grain planted by Wu Nian and his soldiers gradually matured. Countless people worked hard in the fields, sweating like rain.

Suddenly. A force of about 1,000 soldiers appeared in the east and slowly marched towards the city. Many soldiers had blood stains on their armor and jackets, as if they had experienced a bloody battle.

They have their heads held high, their eyes sharp, and their morale is extremely strong.

The "Wu" and "Zhang" banners were surrounded by the team in the middle. Under the banner of Jing. Wu Nian, Zhang Sheng and a few other generals and cavalrymen rode horses with the army.

The people working in the fields on both sides of the road saw that the team stood up one after another, and then bent down deeply in the direction of the road, showing respect.

A soldier of a hundred battles, expel the barbarians and return.

The people are happy.

The army reached the gates of the city. Cheng Yulian led some officials to stand under the city gate, looking excited to welcome Wu Nian.

Although since Wu Nian broke through the cage, there were signs. Although after withdrawing his troops from Goguryeo, he was expecting a great victory for his side.

But when he learned the good news, he was still excited. Worship Wu Nian as a god.

Magnificent. General Fu Han.

One person through the ages.

"General." After Cheng Yulian saw Wu Nian, he led everyone to bend down and salute with fists.

After Wu Nian saw it, he rode forward, turned over and dismounted, helped Cheng Yulian up, and said, "No courtesy." Immediately, he noticed two familiar faces beside Cheng Yulian and bowed gently towards them.

"Go into the city and speak." Wu Nian said again, turned over and got on the horse, entered the city with everyone, and came to the county hall house and sat down.

Wu Nian sat on the main seat, looked at the two familiar faces, and said, "Zhang Yong, Cai Ping." Did you bring supplies? ”

"General Hui. We only brought part of the manpower, and first recruited Jingzhuang in Guangyang Mansion to set up two garrison households. Supplies, grain and grass are still in the rear. Within one or two months, it can reach Guangyang. ”

The two officers clenched their hands into fists and replied.

"Hmm." Wu Nian bowed his head slightly, revealing a satisfied expression. is worthy of Liu Zhixing, the action is really fast.

Establish two garrisons as soon as possible to defend 10,000 households full-time. He was free to attack.

"Adulthood. The autumn harvest is coming. You also organize the manpower to prepare for taxes. Although Guangyang is a mountainous area, it can also produce a lot of grain. ”

Wu Nian turned his head and said to Cheng Yulian.

"Yes." Cheng Yulian responded with a serious expression, but quickly smiled and said, "General." News came from ahead. The Mengyuan people withdrew their troops from the three cities of Guangyang. They didn't have time to slaughter the city, but only set fire to some grain, grass and supplies. ”

Wu Nian was immediately overjoyed, and said continuously: "Okay." It's okay. I'm afraid that the Meng Yuan people will slaughter the city before leaving. ”

This time.

It's really a big win. It not only defeated the 50,000 soldiers of Goguryeo, but also drove away the Mengyuan people, and the people were almost never killed or wounded.

Congratulations, congratulations.

"Send someone to the north. Now that the Meng Yuan people are gone. Let Huang Hu, Long Ji, and Zhao Yanting leave thousands of households to guard the city. They returned to Yangwu City with their own soldiers. ”

"I'm going to have a celebration feast."

"Have a good celebration."
