"Everything will be talked about on the road later, Lord Baijia, how many people do you have in your hands now?" Dugu Shao interrupted the two of them's thoughts.

"Back to the young general, we came from Youzhou, only with the Beifu Iron Cavalry, in addition to the nearly 200 people that General Yuwen took away before, there are more than 2,700 people left, and our mounts In addition to the dark clouds, there are more than 400 ordinary war horses."

"Enough, with the strength of the iron cavalry of the Northern Mansion, it must not be difficult to rush in, the master of the hundred families, please order troops immediately, and we will set off immediately."

"Okay." Bai Shixiang also knew that the situation was urgent, so he simply agreed to Dugu Shao's request, and then he looked at Shen Ye and hesitated: "You want to go with us?" ”

"I will bring him to my father." Dugu Shao didn't wait for Shen Ye to speak, and said first.

Bai Shixiang raised his eyebrows, knowing that Dugu Shao also knew Shen Ye's identity as the prince, Bai Shixiang glanced at Su Yan behind Shen Ye, and then ordered the subordinates beside him: "Beat the drum and gather troops!" ”

The heavily armored cavalry of Beifu marched on the muddy land, and the heavy sound was like muffled thunder.

Around the Beifu Iron Cavalry, there were light horsemen of nearly 100 people, guarding the surroundings.

Dugu Shao rode an ordinary war horse, looking at the group of unridden dark clouds around him, his eyes were very hot.

These were the mounts of the cavalry who went with Yuwen Hu to intercept Xue Mu's cavalry, and some of them did not come back, and their mounts were empty.

"Young General, it's really not that I mean to stop you, the dark clouds are too strong, and they are a horse that recognizes the master, and you can easily get injured if you ride it rashly." Bai Shixiang said.

Dugu Shao was a little regretful, he snorted: "Of course I know these things, I will go back to General Yuwen and ask for a horse." ”

"The Holy Lord will agree to the East Camp to regain possession of the Dark Cloud Horse? Stop dreaming. Bai Shixiang opened his mouth, thought for a while, and did not say anything to Dugu Shao.

"Master of the Hundred Families, where is Uncle Shen Song?" Shen Ye asked out loud, he looked around, but he didn't find Shen Song's shadow at all.

Dugu Shao pricked up his ears beside him, he had always been jealous of the Shen family, especially Shen Song.

Bai Shixiang sighed: "He has already gone back." ”

"Going back?" For some reason, hearing this news, Shen Ye felt a little lost in his heart, and at the same time a little confused.

Bai Shixiang's expression was a little melancholy: "He was worried about the safety of the girl who was with him, so he said goodbye to me yesterday, and after meeting him, he found that he was too different from the rumors." ”

"What rumors?" Shen Ye asked.

Bai Shixiang looked ahead: "It is rumored that Shen Song was a suave prodigal son more than ten years ago, but now he has become a fat man, and he still has a female doll by his side, if he wasn't worried about the little girl named Sisi who stayed in the Rejuvenation Hall, he would not have left at this time." ”

Shen Ye lowered his head, and thought of what Meng Feng said to himself when he was in Youzhou, Mengzhou Mansion once said that Miss Sisi was the daughter of Lin Ye in Beidaying, but why was Lin Ye's daughter here with Uncle Shen Song, and why did Uncle Shen care so much about that girl?

After less than half an hour of marching, the team began to encounter obstacles, and there were constantly small groups of Gongshan soldiers harassing the Beifu Iron Cavalry, although these Yi Clan's cold arrows would not hurt the cavalry of Beifu, but their shouts and insults still affected the mentality of the Beifu cavalry to some extent.

Dugu Shao was even more angry: "If it weren't for our trouble, I would definitely order them to be crushed!" ”

As the team got closer and closer to Yizhou City, the road ahead became more and more difficult, and the outermost Gongshan clan army had learned of the movements of Shen Ye and the others, but they did not choose to fight hard, but placed a large number of things such as rejecting horses, antlers, dark thorns, and iron nails on the road, which seriously affected the pace of the Beifu Iron Cavalry, and Bai Shixiang had to transfer the light cavalry around him to clean the road ahead.

Shen Ye intended to lead the team in the direction of the camp where he and Su Yan were captured, but when he arrived at the place, Shen Ye was disappointed, the original camp had already been vacated, and the people of the Gongshan clan were gone.

The pace of the team slowed down and finally had to stop completely.

Because the endless plain in front of it has been "reclaimed", the horizontal and vertical trenches have come into everyone's eyes, and the entire plain has become "full of holes".

At this time, Dugu Shao finally panicked, he realized that the rebellion of the Gongshan clan this time was completely different from the rebellion of other tribes in recent years, and the other party was indeed prepared, in order to prevent the support of the imperial army, he actually dug so many dense trenches.

Shen Ye got off the war horse, looked at the trench in front of him that was six or seven zhang deep, and couldn't help but gasp, these fortifications are not to mention war horses, even if people come to climb over it, it takes a lot of effort, and then he observed carefully and found that there was something faintly reflecting on the land under the trench.

Shen Ye felt a chill in his heart: "There are still spikes buried under here?" ”

"Major General, we can't be walking." Bai Shixiang said in a deep voice, his expression was also a little dignified, he was the same as Dugu Shao, he didn't care about this rebellion in Yizhou, but after seeing these more mature fortifications, he also became serious.

"Our horses can't get through, and there aren't enough trees around to allow us to build a road."

Dugu Shao also knew that it was unrealistic to let the people of the Beifu Iron Rider dismount and move forward, so he hesitated: "Let's go around?" ”

Bai Shixiang shook his head and said, "Since the other party has dug so many fortifications in the east, it should be the same in other places, otherwise what is the use of this side?" ”

Dugu Shao said with a sad face: "Then what are we going to do?" We've all arrived here, do you want to retreat? ”

Bai Shixiang was thinking about how to persuade Dugu Shao to give up the idea of support, when Shen Ye's voice came.

"We'll go by ourselves."

"Huh?" Dugu Shao didn't react.

Shen Ye looked at Dugu Shao and said seriously: "The two of us don't have heavy armor on our bodies, this kind of trench, as long as we are careful on the road, we can still jump over." ”

Bai Shixiang disagreed: "Even if you go in the past, what can you do? Beifu Iron Cavalry can't pass, there are only two of you, but there are one or even several tribes on the other side, and you are sent to death in the past. ”

"I can guarantee that not only will they not be difficult for us, but they will also invite us to be guests." Shen Ye said confidently.

"What can you do?" Dugu Shao didn't believe Shen Ye's words.

Under the gaze of Dugu Shao and Bai Shixiang, Shen Ye took out a crumpled pile of paper from his body.

"What is this?" Dugu Shao Qi said.

"Clear the way."

"Lu Yin?" Dugu Shao felt a little inexplicable, he laughed angrily: "Are you kidding? With these few road guides, you can be safe and sound? ”

"To be precise, this is the road guide opened by Dongjiang City." Shen Ye had a deep meaning in his eyes, and an idea was generated in his mind.
