There was an oolong, and Chen Kan successfully took over the city defense of Longshou Pass.

Dali Mansion has two military cities, one is Longshou Pass, the other is Longwei Pass, a total of 3,000 soldiers are stationed.

The two passes were formed in the Dali period, when the Yunnan separatist regime Duan Dali relied on these two Xiongguan to resist the Mongolian 100,000 iron horsemen who swept the world.

In the end, although the Dali Kingdom of the Duan clan died, it also consumed 80,000 people of the 100,000 troops of the Mongols who conquered Dali.

It shows the importance of these two Xiongguan to Dali Mansion.

At first, when he learned that the Buddha and his subordinates were evacuating in the direction of Longshou Pass, Chen Kan's first reaction was to be shocked.

This result was completely beyond Chen Kan's expectations.

To return to Shuzhong from Yunnan, there are many roads, the most recent one is to enter Dongchuan Mansion from Tuerguan, and turn to Wuchi Road in Doushaguan to enter Mianzhou.

At the same time, this is also the weakest road in the whole Yunnan to Sichuan, because Shuzhong is completely familiar, there is no need to be guarded, so the most soldiers stationed at the checkpoint on this road is just a thousand households in Dousha Pass.

But since the Buddha did not choose to take the best path, but chose to take a detour, Chen Kan could only follow the Buddha's thoughts to think.

After thinking about the map, Chen Kan suddenly understood the Buddha's calculation.

Once out of Dali Mansion, it is the Hengduan Mountain Area with high mountains and deep valleys, and now the Hengduan Mountain Area still belongs to Tibet, once it goes deep into the Hengduan Mountain Area, it is impossible for the imperial court to send a large army to pursue it. Because the roads in the Hengduan Mountains are steep, it is not conducive to the advance of the army at all.

The imperial court's army needed to think about attrition, but the White Lotus Cultists didn't need it at all.

According to the news of Mu Sheng's personal soldiers, they didn't even need to prepare dry food, and the White Lotus Sect disciples that were lost could just become food for their mouths.

Throwing off the pursuit of the imperial army, the chances of the Buddha and the holy woman escaping were countless times greater.

The most important thing is that no one would have thought that they would leave so many shortcuts and take the farthest and most difficult road.

Even if the guards of Longshou Pass are strict, they will not think that the Buddha will go straight to Dali, which gives the Buddha the opportunity to fish in troubled waters, if it is not for Chen Kan to Dali to control the pass, I am afraid that the Buddha will really find out of the pass.

Because Chen Kan had already learned when he entered the city that if Chen Kan didn't arrive today, he planned to switch it tomorrow to divert some of the caravans stranded in the city.

Therefore, in addition to the long distance and large losses, it can be said that there is no risk at all compared to taking the rabbit ear pass, which may fall into the hands of the border army at any time.

If Chen Kan were a Buddha, he would also make such a choice!

It's a pity that the Buddha has calculated everything, but he missed that Mu Sheng has a special force in his hand.

Everyone knows that the general's personal soldiers are the strongest, and in wartime, the general's personal soldiers are the general's second and third orders.

But after so many years of peace in the Ming Dynasty, many people have forgotten how strong the general's personal soldiers are, including the Buddha.

He would never have imagined that someone would follow them into the deep mountains and old forests without the help of his medicinal liquid.

Since he had insight into the Buddha's calculations in advance and didn't put a big bag for the Buddha to drill, it was not Chen Kan's character.

With just an order, the guard of Longwei Pass rushed to Longshou Pass at night with a thousand households, in addition to the five hundred households left in Longwei Pass, there were two thousand five hundred tigers in Longshou Pass.

Coupled with the two hundred elite cavalry brought by Chen Kan, and the two hundred special forces secretly following the Buddha, nearly three thousand elites, if this is not the case, the Buddha cannot be left in Yunnan, Chen Kan can only ......

It was naturally impossible to wipe his neck and apologize, because Chen Kan really couldn't think of any chance for the Buddha to escape from this cage, unless he had wings!

The way of arming the defense is very simple, 2,500 people, there is no need to divide the troops, when the Buddha emerges from the mountains and forests, just rush up in a swarm.

As for which mountain the Buddha will emerge from, Chen Kan only needs to wait quietly.

Since Mu Sheng sent all his personal soldiers out, the whereabouts of the Buddha are no longer a problem.

Conveying the order to the army, and letting all the soldiers take turns to rest and be on guard, Chen Kan went into the room that Duan Cong had prepared for him.

He was so tired that he galloped for three days and three nights, not to mention closing his eyes, and even eating was solved on horseback.

As soon as I closed my eyes, I woke up again and it was already midnight.

It was such a coincidence, Chen Kan had just opened his eyes when there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, news has arrived!"

Fang Xu's voice came from outside the door, Chen Kan got up from the bed suddenly, and when he opened the door, he saw Fang Xu's somewhat excited face.

"Where are the people?"

Chen Kan was also a little excited, the White Lotus Sect was sliding like a loach, and now that this loach was finally about to be caught, how could he not be excited.

Fang Xu said: "It's on top of the Guan Tower!" ”

As soon as Fang Xu's voice fell, when he looked up again, Chen Kan's back had already walked away.

Hurriedly walked to the top of the Guan Tower, a ragged and covered with scars, completely unable to see that it was the most elite soldier in the Ming Army, and the whole person was like a beggar-like figure to greet him.

"Meet Chincha-sama!"

Chen Kan helped him and didn't let him bow down.

He clapped his hands with some excitement: "It's hard work, where is the Buddha now?" ”

The soldier was not hypocritical, got up and arched his hand: "My lord, when I left the mountain, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect had already walked out of Yuanshan, and they would appear outside the gate in the early hours of the morning. ”

"Good!"

Chen Kan couldn't help but sigh and continued to ask, "Do you know which way they will come out of the mountain?" ”

The soldier shook his head with some hesitation and said: "I don't know yet, but if the remnants of the White Lotus Sect want to enter the customs, they must have to disguise themselves, and they guess that they will most likely pretend to be caravans into Tibet." ”

Chen Kan put his hands behind his back, and after a moment of silence, he looked back and instructed the soldiers on duty at night: "Summoning more than 100 officers in the army to come to the Guanlou to discuss matters!" ”

The soldier who reported the letter saw that Chen Kan had already prepared, and as soon as he bowed his hand to Chen Kan, he was about to say goodbye and leave.

"Wait a minute!"

Chen Kan stopped him, and the soldier looked back and asked, "My lord, what else do you have to order?" ”

Chen Kan groaned: "Please go back and tell the commander of your family, just say that this love is the official undertaker, and ask him to bring someone to ...... at a critical time."

After explaining to the soldier, Duan Cong and the others, who got the news, also happened to arrive at the top of the Guan Tower.

"Gather the army, the scouts are released thirty miles away, and go!"

The so-called deliberation is a process in which Chen Kan conveyed orders to the generals of Longshouguan and Longweiguan.

Since it is an interception, it is impossible to place the interception in the Longshou Pass.

2,700 people drove out of the city, leaving only a few dozen soldiers on the tower to guard the city.

Fate is so wonderful, a few days ago, Chen Kan was the target of the White Lotus Sect's interception.

A few days later, the roles were reversed, and the White Lotus Sect became the target of Chen Kan's interception again, the only difference was that Chen Kan had Ah Jin to report to him, so he was lucky to escape, while the Buddha may not have such good luck.

......

......

At night, in a canyon between the two mountains, countless torches illuminated the entire canyon as if it were day.

The Buddha and the saint sat cross-legged in the crowd, eating dried thigh meat without a bite.

The fishy smell of human flesh made the saint almost nauseous, but this was the only food they had now, and if she didn't eat it, she probably wouldn't be able to make it to Shu alive.

Therefore, even if the meat is unpalatable, she can only endure the nausea and eat it.

On the contrary, it was the girl Ah Jin, the Buddha didn't know what the purpose was, and she had been feeding her with pills all this time, so as not to eat human flesh.

Whenever the Buddha eats, he will feed Ah Jin a black elixir, this elixir is very magical, after eating, Ah Jin not only does not feel hungry, but will fall into an intoxicating illusion, the direct result is that the originally healthy little girl has now become a skin-covered addict.

After the Buddha finished eating the meat strip in his hand, he stretched out his hand to call a disciple and asked, "How is the news?" ”

The believer replied respectfully: "Back to the Buddha, there is no change in Longshou Pass except for martial law. ”

The Buddha nodded, the martial law of the Longshou Pass was already expected by him, in fact, the entire Yunnan Pass is now under martial law, and the prevention is that the remnants of the White Lotus Sect sneak out of the pass.

But it was expected that the man would never have guessed that he did not go to the Rabbit Ear Pass, but came to the Dragon Head Pass, which was completely opposite to the Rabbit Ear Pass.

Thinking of this, the Buddha Zi pulled a faint mockery on his face, and he could already think that the man led the troops to chase to the rabbit ear pass, but there was no trace of him at all, and finally he jumped like thunder.

Living among monkeys since he was a child, he has an unimaginable attachment to the hobby of playing with others.

Whenever he saw someone who was angry after being teased by him, he would feel a great sense of satisfaction and accomplishment in his heart, as if it were not enough to show his wisdom.

The only thing that made him regret was that he couldn't see the angry and ruined appearance with his own eyes this time, which would weaken the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in his heart.

Sighing, the Buddha said lightly: "Go and inquire again, if you meet a passing caravan, come and report it quickly." ”

"Obey the orders of the Buddha!"

When the disciple took the order, the holy woman couldn't help but be curious: "Let's disguise ourselves as a caravan, can we get through?" ”

Hearing this, the Buddha smiled evilly and said in a low voice: "How do you know that there is no backhand arranged by the deity in the Dragon Head Pass?" ”

"What, you ......"

The saint was shocked, and her eyes were full of horror.

But as soon as he spoke, he was covered by the Buddha's mouth.

The saint was covered by him, but the surprise in her eyes couldn't be hidden, she didn't expect that the Buddha's hand had already reached the Dragon Head Pass, no wonder he would ignore everyone's opposition, and wanted to take a long detour, it turned out that the chess pieces had already been buried in the Dragon Head Pass.

At this moment, she suddenly had a strong sense of jealousy.

"It's good to know, beware of trouble coming out of your mouth."

Seeing the holy woman blinking desperately, the Buddha let go of her after a threat.

The saint regained her senses from shock, and when she looked at the Buddha, she couldn't help but change her face several times.

The atmosphere fell into a short silence, and the holy woman wanted to ask the Buddha a few words, but when she saw that the Buddha had begun to close her eyes and recuperate, she had to close her mouth in interest.

No matter what the Buddha arranged, she had no ability to resist now, and she would be able to escape.

Everything has a chance!

...

When the sky was white, the believer went and returned.

Only this time, the disciple's face was ugly.

He leaned over to the Buddha and whispered a few words, and saw that the Buddha's face instantly became gloomy.

The saint frowned and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"Plans have changed!"

The Buddha coldly spat out four words in his mouth, and then stood up and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, and his face began to become irritable.

He couldn't understand why that man had chased him here.

How did his whereabouts come about?

Could it be that the man secretly arranged for his pursuers?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

The Buddha muttered to herself, causing the saint to ask: "What's wrong, what's impossible?" ”

The Buddha's brows furrowed tightly, he absolutely didn't believe that someone could follow him through the mountains and forests without drinking his medicinal liquid.

Not to mention the miasma in the mountain that can kill people at any time, and if you don't drink his medicinal liquid, those fierce mosquitoes in the mountain are not something ordinary people can deal with.

Not to mention that you can get malaria after being bitten by mosquitoes.

He has absolute confidence in his medicine.

Since there are no pursuers, the only explanation is that there are traitors in the ranks.

As soon as he thought of this possibility, the Buddha looked at the saint with fierce eyes.

Except for the two women in the entire team, the others are the henchmen he brought from Shuzhong, and they will not hesitate to do the kind of henchmen they will do if they let them die.

There is no reason why they would betray themselves.

So the woman who is most likely to betray himself is this woman, is it that this woman has no feelings for that person?

But how did this woman, who had stayed by her side since she entered the mountain, tell the man?

Is there really a pursuer?

The Buddha's mind was a little irritable.

Then he looked at the White Lotus Sect who was eating.

These days, the rest of the White Lotus Cultists have taken turns to act as scouts, which means that except for him and the two women, everyone else has left his sight.

Could it be that there are really traitors under his command?

The Buddha's footsteps paused, and a trace of ferocity suddenly flashed in his eyes, whether it was a pursuer or a traitor, the exposure of his whereabouts had become an established fact.

All of his plans had probably been seen through by the man.

Case......

Soon, the Buddha made a decision in his heart.

Although this decision made his heart bleed, he had to do it for the sake of his life!

He came to the saint's side, whispered a few words in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, and saw that the saint's face suddenly changed greatly, and then looked at the Buddha in a little panic and asked, "Do we still have any hope of going back alive?" ”

"Hmph, the deity has a hard life, otherwise, it is impossible for us to return to Shu alive!"
