Chapter 415: The Ghost Lingers
Tang Baichuan was shocked into a cold sweat by Yin Nan's bloody knife, he didn't dare to turn back, and went straight to the mountain, and there were more than 100 soldiers behind him who escaped from the ambush, threw away their armor and ran up the mountain, and fled for their lives surrounded by Wu Tianyou and Tang Baichuan.
The forest is dense and impermeable, does not argue the path, and the screams come and go, Tang Baichuan does not know his direction at all, so he can only go on a rampage.
The rocks under his feet were abrupt, thorny, and the vines were hanging upside down, and he stumbled and stumbled, pulling and pulling, and the armor on his body was heavy, and his ears were more and more "rumbling", panting like a cow, and sweating profusely.
He looked back and saw the swords shining behind him, and the soldiers who followed him kept falling.
The bloody atmosphere was permeated in the mountains and forests, he saw that Yin Nan was killing people like chopping melons, his two eyes were bright and scary, he couldn't help but feel hairy on his back, and he was frightened in his heart, secretly saying that this person was evil, and he was reluctant to take off the armor on his body, and the more he ran, the slower he became.
Just as he stepped into the pile of soft pine needles, he suddenly heard Wu Tianyou shouting beside him, he didn't hear the content of the shouting clearly, but with the instinct of years of fighting, he did not hesitate and fell to the ground.
At the moment when his head was buried in the rotten leaves, Yin Nan's long knife flew past him, and with a "rubbing" sound, the long knife was nailed to the trunk of the tree, and the tip of the knife did not go halfway.
Tang Baichuan raised his eyes, saw the handle of the knife trembling on the trunk of the tree, and was so frightened that he didn't dare to look back, so he crawled to the side and ran to the side, while running, he reached out and took off his embroidered shirt, threw it on the grass, and then went to untie his armor - the armor was too heavy, and in this kind of dense forest, it was completely cumbersome.
Wu Tianyou followed closely behind him, also took off the hood, threw it aside, and suddenly saw a small road ahead, which seemed to be dug up by villagers outside Wangzhou Mansion, and hurriedly stretched out his hand and pointed: "General, go quickly!" ”
Tang Baichuan decisively stepped on the trail, the trail was muddy, fortunately there was no obstruction, he ran faster, but it was narrow, and he couldn't squeeze so many people for a while, everyone lined up to squeeze on the road, and as soon as he ran up more than ten, the women's army chased after him and cut it with a knife.
On one side is the long-accumulated strong army, and on the other side is the exhausted defeated army, and the winner is divided in an instant.
Yin Nan's ghost did not disperse, jumped down from the grassy slope above the path, and fell in front of Tang Baichuan, and his head was a knife.
Tang Baichuan retreated suddenly, and at the same time reached out and grabbed Wu Tianyou behind him, and grabbed him in front of him, only to hear a "poof", the blade was inserted into Wu Tianyou's chest, and with another sound, the knife was pulled out, and blood spurted instantly.
Wu Tianyou's eyes widened, and he didn't bat at death.
Tang Baichuan quickly threw him away, jumped off the path, rolled into the grass one by one, and rushed down the mountain along the direction of the trail.
His army of 100,000 completely disappeared at this moment, leaving him alone to fight.
He knew that after escaping, he would face a heavy punishment from His Majesty, but His Majesty's punishment did not matter, because the young generals of the dynasty, many civil ministers, and civil officials were dissatisfied with him, and they had to use him in the end.
The most important thing at this time is not to become a captive of Mo Lingfeng.
He rushed down the hill in one go, and flowed across the stream to the head of the village, startled by the sound of a dog barking, and the cat, fearing that the world would not be chaotic, barked at him.
Someone in the village lit an oil lamp, opened the door to inspect, and was startled when he saw the embarrassed Tang Baichuan, and picked up the broom leaning on the corner of the wall.
Tang Baichuan walked under the tree, looked back behind him, his eyes were hazy blue, he didn't see the pursuers, he sat on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.
The Mo family army is a traitor, and the soldiers who are ambushed outside dare not stay away from the army, let alone enter someone's village to kill people in a grand manner-the rebellious person, because of his unrighteous name, he especially wants to plot a benevolent name that loves the people like a son.
"Who?" The villagers did not dare to approach and shouted from a distance.
Tang Baichuan was in a trance, and when he heard the shouting, a spirit, looked up and saw that it was a villager, stood up with a tree trunk, gritted his teeth and held back the pain in his legs: "I am a general of the imperial court, I have been persecuted by traitors so far, quickly lead the horse, I have the gold medal from His Majesty!" ”
"No, no horses." The villagers retreated to the door, their eyes suddenly round.
Behind the tree stood the elusive Yin Nan.
Yin Nan stepped forward, Tang Baichuan didn't have to look back, and he knew that something was wrong, so he dodged sideways, pulled out a long knife from his waist, and his backhand was a knife.
"Dang" There was a loud sound, the two knives were put together, and Tang Baichuan was rushed back three steps by force.
Yin Nan took the time to take a look at the weapon, and when he saw that the knife had rolled up at some point, he withdrew his hand, threw the long knife on the ground, pulled out a sharp knife from his sleeve, and then threw Tang Baichuan to the ground, the sharp knife was across his neck, and pressed down hard.
Tang Baichuan closed his eyes tightly, his mind was blank, his heart fell straight to hell, his whole body was cold, but the sweat leaked out in an instant, soaking through his clothes.
The expected pain did not come.
When he opened his eyes, he saw that Yin Nan's face was full of unhappiness, put away the sharp knife, grabbed him by the placket of his clothes, pulled him to his feet, and pushed him back, leaving a dumbfounded villager.
She sighed as she walked, "I want to live." ”
Tang Baichuan was not restrained, but he had been frightened into a mud by Yin Nan, moving his steps like a walking corpse, and when he heard her talking to herself, there were only two words left in his heart - it's over.
At this time, the city of Wangzhou has become a Shura field, corpses can be seen everywhere on the streets, the rocket grease that has not been exhausted is all over the streets, the rubble is broken on the ground, and the blood is stained, and the city of Wangzhou has become rich and colorful overnight, and it has appeared in the world.
The people were more clever, stuffed their gold and silver treasures into their clothes, and hid in the cellars to prevent the soldiers from burning and looting, and some were frightened, like clay sculptures and wood carvings, standing in front of the door with their faces blank, watching the soldiers come and go, cleaning up the battlefield, and the people were anxiously turning over the corpses in the streets—during the siege, most of the pedestrians and traders on the streets had no time to dodge, and were trampled by war horses, and suffered countless casualties.
A group of beggars swarmed out to pick up food that had fallen to the ground.
The crow roosts on the branches, occasionally flapping its wings, "fluttering" and flying into a piece, following the corpse.
There was a sound of rustling everywhere, but there was no voice, and suddenly someone ran by, and stepped on the dustpan on the ground, which was startling, and then someone shouted: "Open the granary!" Go and see, open the granary! ”
The dead silence was broken.
All soldiers and horses, grain and grass consumption is huge, 100,000 soldiers and 10,000 war horses, a month's grain needs to be transported by 400,000 people.
The Wangzhou army hoarded here because Wangzhou has a "Jiahe warehouse" that has been enriched for many years.
The rice of the northwest states are transferred from here to the granary of Kyoto, so the granary is built very large, there are 100 warehouses inside, each of which can store 2,000 stones of grain, during the autumn harvest last year, there were tabloid rumors that Jiahe warehouse dug the granary again, and stored the rice of the army in Yongzhen, and the grain was nearly 360,000 stones.
Wangzhou governors, high-sounding on weekdays, today the gray faces gathered in front of the Wangzhou Prefecture, the four warehouse chiefs trembled, holding the warehouse account book, for Huang Yunshu to check, the grain officer, the treasury official black pressure stood on the first floor, the people gathered to watch.
