Chapter 132: Trapped in a cage, I don't know
The gate of Chengdu City:
At dinner, a heavy-looking carriage came slowly from the city, and the coachman had a blue scarf wrapped around his head, almost blocking a pair of eyes.
Originally, in recent days, due to the absence of war, the gate of the capital has been open, and it has not been closed at this time, but today is different, Chen You is worried that Chen Ji will go out of the city, and ordered the forbidden army to guard the city to closely monitor every pedestrian who enters and exits.
As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate, it was stopped by a Praetorian samurai.
"Master Chen Yi has an order that all pedestrians and vehicles must be strictly inspected." As he spoke, the samurai was about to lift the curtain of the car with the short whip in his hand, but he did not watch out and was slapped in the face by the coachman with a long whip.
The power of the whip was so great that a long bloody cut opened in the samurai's face in an instant.
"Bastard, this is the queen mother's mother who asked the slave to be sent outside the city, forgive me for how dare a little doorman dare to stop you?" The coachman shouted.
The samurai was beaten a little dazed, and for a while he didn't know whether it was true or not.
The coachman paid no attention to him and drove the carriage out.
Several soldiers standing by the gate covered their mouths and snickered, feeling that the samurai had been beaten, which was really a bit wronged.
Not far from the car, another samurai rode to the door.
"Lord Chen has an order, close the city gate early, and beware of someone sneaking out of the city at night."
The samurai who had been beaten was still holding his face with his hands and looking in the direction where the carriage had left, feeling that something was wrong.
Suddenly, he slapped his thigh.
"This person is suspicious, follow me quickly."
Two war horses led more than a dozen Shu soldiers to follow.
The coachman swung his whip and galloped forward.
When the two horses were about to approach the cart, the coachman turned around and groped for a hardwood bow from the cart.
With the sound of a bowstring, one of the samurai running ahead dismounted.
Another samurai drew his bow and fired an arrow at the cart.
The feather arrow pierced the curtain covering the car, making a crisp pop, and was bounced far away. Obviously, the car was filled with metal.
Another feathered arrow came and struck the samurai in the shoulder.
The samurai threw away the hardwood bow in his hand.
"Quickly report to Lord Chen, and quickly inform General Dong Qi stationed in front of him to help capture this person, and the rest will continue to chase with me." The samurai commanded the soldiers who followed him.
The two soldiers ran back to the city.
At this time, there were no pedestrians on the road, and the car was like a mad monster, stirring up a thick cloud of dust.
Soon, several soldiers were left far behind, and only a cart and a horse were left galloping on the road.
When we came to a fork in the road, the car turned to one side.
The samurai grabbed his injured shoulder with one hand and stamped his foot on the horse's back.
"This guy has bypassed the barracks in front!"
The samurai reined in his horse and froze for a moment in the direction of the carriage's escape.
It was soon dark.
The people sent by Chen Yi rushed out of the city with torches held high, and chased along that road for more than ten miles, but they did not see the shadow of the vehicle, so they had to hastily withdraw their troops and go back.
Ten days later, Wu County, Taishou Mansion:
More than a dozen carriages loaded with various supplies walked out of the gate of the mansion, and then, more than a dozen war horses followed suit, followed by a team of 100 people, and all kinds of weapons looked particularly dazzling in the sun.
"When the young general was in the capital, did he ever have such leisure?" Ling Zhan, who was wearing heavy armor, rode side by side with Wang Si on his horse and asked.
Wang Si glanced up at the blue sky.
"When the villain was in Beijing, he relied on the protection of his father, and he had no fame on his head, but he also had to go to the court with all the adults, and for a few years, he hadn't even spoken in the court, where would he have such a good mood."
"The brave and martial villain of the young general's ancestor knows best, but at the beginning, Zhuge Wuhou didn't know how to use people, so General Wang Ping has always been subordinate to Wei Yan and others." Ling Zhan sighed, "Fortunately, the queen is reasonable, and he has not forgotten the exploits of General Wang Ping because of this, and he will treat the young general as always." ”
Wang Si smiled and didn't say anything.
The car went out of town.
"This place is not far from Cao Wei's Shangyong County, there are many mountains and rivers, and there are many wild beasts. The last general would bring people here every year to hunt, and sometimes he would encounter Cao Wei's army, but there was no friction. Ling Zhan pointed forward with his hand and said.
Wang Si stopped.
Shangyong County was once under the control of Guan Yu when Liu Bei occupied Jingzhou, but Guan Yu was later defeated by Jiangdong, and Liu Feng, the Taishou stationed here, fled, and the deputy general Meng Da surrendered to Cao Wei. Since then, Shangyong County has become the place of Cao Wei.
"General Ling is saying that he will meet Cao Wei's men here?" Wang Si exclaimed.
Ling Zhan also stopped and looked back at Wang Si.
"Young General, don't panic, I am still friends with this Shangyong Taishou, although they are enemies of the two countries, but there are many contacts on weekdays, if it weren't for the last time Deng Ai brought people to attack, the two of us can still drink and talk."
Wang Si was a little angry.
"If the villain hadn't come here to avenge the queen, he would never have borne this infamy through the ages. It's just that I, Wang Si, act uprightly, even if I raise an army to fight against the rebels in the future, I will never unite with Cao Wei's army. ”
Ling Zhan looked at Wang Si's face.
"The courage of the young general is commendable, but with the few people of my small Wujun, it is really impossible to achieve great things. The last general is not a person who is afraid of things, but really thinks about the young general. ”
Wang Si turned the horse's head.
"In that case, you go and meet with that Shangyong Taishou, and General Ben will go back to Wujun to recruit troops."
Ling Zhan caught up and stopped Wang Si.
"The young general can't be rash, the last general brought you here to hunt, it's just a joke, the young general must not take it seriously."
Wang Si looked at Ling Zhan coldly.
Ling Zhan sighed and said, "Since the young general is unwilling to be with Cao Wei, the last general is also willing to follow the young general to fight against the traitors." It's just that since I'm here today, I'll just take a few prey and go back, and when I return to the house, you and I will discuss the thief's plan. ”
Wang Si showed a smile at this time.
After walking more than 30 miles ahead, the car stopped in a col with abundant water and grass.
Hundreds of soldiers unloaded the supplies on the cart and set up tents improvised.
After a short rest, Wang Si stepped onto his war horse, holding a hardwood bow in his hand, and looked at Ling Zhan.
"General Ling dares to compete with the villain, before it gets dark, you and I will determine the winner or loser based on the number of prey."
Ling Zhan looked very interested.
"Since the young general has this Yaxing, this general will have a competition with you."
"Okay." Wang Si said, and he was already flying towards the other side of the mountain.
Looking at Wang Si's distant back, Ling Zhan's face showed a sinister sneer, and he beckoned a soldier to summon him.
"Recently, I heard that General Zhong Tian, the famous general of Wei, has just come to Shangyong County, maybe he came to inspect the garrison of each county, you immediately rushed to Shangyong, and said that Wang Si had arrived, but this guy refused to be with the Wei army, and asked General Zhong Tian to lead the troops to come, and the general personally responded to Wang Si and forced him to submit."
"Yes." The soldier promised Pegasus to leave.
Only then did Ling Zhan mount his war horse, take the hard bow handed over by the soldier, weigh it in his hand, and rush to Pegasus in the direction where Wang Si was walking.
