Chapter 7: Rolling Thunder

Torches were raised from the hands of the soldiers and gathered in the school field from all sides of the barracks, and the bloody heads were raised to a long pole in the school field and hung for public display.

In the huge school field, more than 2,000 people in armor and spears gathered, more than 100 horse teams in and out, and lightly armed scouts hung bows and arrows, galloping in the dark night wilderness.

Among the countless intertwined eyes, Su Chen, the second ancestor of the second ancestor, took off his brocade robe, put on armor and a sword, and walked onto the platform.

"I have information, there are changes in the city tonight, there is a master in the secret, and the assassin wants to kill the whole family of the Hou Mansion, although I am a gentleman, I also know the reason for protecting the family, and you have also seen the person who is deeply favored by my family, and the head has been hung with a flagpole at this moment!"

Su Chen's face was solemn, showing a hint of the majesty of a leading general, and the long sword in his hand was slowly raised, pointing in the direction of Ding'an City.

His voice resounded through the schoolyard.

"Ding'an Army, follow me to kill the rebels who attacked the city, after today, you will be rewarded!"

The night wind blew, and the banner in the camp and his cloak sounded in the wind, and the two thousand soldiers in the school field raised their weapons and pillars on the ground, making a 'bang' sound in unison.

Su Chen stepped off the high platform, turned over the war horse brought by the thirteenth, and the merit bar in his mind suddenly increased, obviously because he dealt with a possible rebellion in the army.

This time, it directly exceeded 5,000 points, reaching more than 5,500, and it was enough to summon Tiangong Zhangjiao.

He shook the reins and rushed out first, and the more than 100 light horsemen who were waiting followed closely behind, raising dust and smoke and heading straight for Ding'an City.

Waves of soldiers toppled the barracks like a torrent of water, and ran silently across the dark field.

"Thirteen, the name of the city gate guard may be on the roster."

The military camp was only a few miles away from Ding'an City, and it took less than half an hour for Su Chen, who came first on a fast horse, to see the soldiers patrolling the city tower from a distance, he turned around and asked the guards who were also riding horses, and the latter turned out the roster from his arms, his eyes swept over the names one by one, and finally landed on a name called Gao Ling

Thirteen put away the roster and nodded: "Yes." ”

Su Chen looked at the head of the city and half-closed his eyes, and more than 100 light horsemen behind him were eager to call the door, but Su Chen raised his hand to stop him, and whispered: "Follow me!" ”

Jiaye ran with the war horse, making a loud noise, and in a moment, he came to the city gate downstairs, Su Chen pulled the reins, and said 'how' in his mouth, attracting the attention of the soldiers patrolling the city.

"Who's under the city?" There was a voice shouting from the tower.

"Ding'an Hou Mansion Su Chen!" Under the city tower, Su Chen turned his horse's head around and shouted to the soldiers who leaned out of the battlements on the city tower: "Tell Gao Ling to come out to see me." ”

The name of the little marquis of the Hou Mansion, these soldiers have naturally heard of it, if they want to say that they have seen it, then they are not, and they are not sure if it is Su Chen at the moment, the soldier said: "Wait a minute." Turned around and ran away, and came back after a while, there was an additional round-faced and sturdy general beside him, and the other party pressed the hilt of the knife and saw Su Chen below.

Especially when he saw Su Chen riding a horse and wearing armor, and there were more than 100 cavalry around him, his face suddenly sank, he slightly turned his face and whispered a few words to his henchman, and when he turned his face back, he smiled, "Why didn't the little marquis play in the drunken flower building today, but put on armor?" ”

His fingers quietly hooked, and a few steps away, an archer approached the female wall in small steps, and took his bow and arrows to aim at the mounted figure below through the gap in the battlement.

The bowstring snapped, and the arrows shot out from behind the battlements, Su Chen turned his head, and when he looked at the shoulders that were rushing straight away, the guards on the side stepped on the saddle and jumped up, drew their swords in mid-air, and cut off the arrows.

Su Chen glanced at the broken arrow that fell a few steps in front of the horse, and in the wilderness behind him, more than 2,000 people rushed wildly, and the torches raised were like a sea of fire spreading towards this side.

"General Gao, I have controlled the Ding'an Army, and I am reinforcing this side, there are only five hundred defenders at the South City Gate, do you think it can be stopped?"

"The little marquis deceived everyone so badly." Gao Ling slashed at the wall and splashed stone chips, he smiled: "I thought you were just an idle boy in the Hou Mansion, but I didn't expect Gao to see the little Hou Ye riding a horse and armor to lead the army to attack the city, and he really looked away!" You have made Gao gain knowledge, but it may not be easy for you to go to the city. ”

On the city tower, the general called Gaoling is only the guard of the city gate here, and there are only 500 people in his hands, so naturally he will not go down to fight to the death, but relying on the high wall and thick gate, there is no fear on his face.

"Two thousand people came in a hurry, and attacking the city is delusional, but tomorrow, what is the use of the little marquis even if he has 20,000 people?"

Su Chen circled around the horse, looked at the city wall, and then touched the token in his sleeve, and the speed of the meritorious strip in his mind that was visible to the naked eye quickly decreased.

He raised his face to look at the tower.

"General Gao rebelled against my father, who gave you the promise of a high-ranking official and made you take such a risk?"

"Hahaha, who is Gao won't tell you." Gao Ling raised his knife and put it on his shoulder, "Everyone wants to move their butts up, and Gao naturally wants to do it too." ”

In the voice of his words, a sudden thunderclap resounded through the night, and the electric light flickered in the sky, shining a blue and white under the eyes of the people.

In a flash of light.

The three soldiers who were originally standing on the side of the tower twitched and squatted down in pain against the wall of the tower, while Gao Ling's voice continued.

"So, little Hou Ye, Lao Tzu can only be sorry for Su Hou Ye...... In the future, every festival, at most, I will burn some paper money for comfort. ”

The thunder was far away, Su Chen rode on horseback, feeling some unusual breath, the thirteen on the side listened to the words above, and was so angry that he wanted to fly up and slash it, Su Chen straightened his body and looked at the laughing figure behind the battlements of the city tower.

"You don't have to go." He whispered.

The words fell, and the blue and white electric light flickered again between the heaven and the earth, and the thunder exploded after it, which frightened the laughing Gao Ling into a thrill, and was about to speak, when suddenly a soldier let out a miserable scream, and flew like a cannonball, smashing into the wall battlement on the right.

Gao Ling turned around with his sword, and the lightning illuminated the night again, and under the eaves on the right side of the city tower, three figures stood, and blue and white electric light flashed across their faces.

One person was draped in yellow soap, wearing leather armor and holding a sword, while the other was in a yellow brocade robe, stepping on soap boots, and an iron spear was on the ground.

The figure of the leader, with a thick beard and long beard, has red lines of yin and yang on his forehead.

A flash of electric light shone on his face, his beard stroked slightly, and he looked at Gao Ling, who turned to look at him, and the corners of his mouth slowly grinned.

……

At the same time.

Sioux House.

The lantern hung under the eaves and swayed slightly, the food in the hall had long been removed, and the family sat in the hall with a faint worried look.

"Chen'er is really going to die of my mother, there is no news at this time, will I be poisoned by gangsters outside." The woman was on crutches, her expression was a little excited, they were all her sons who had been brought up, no matter which one was missing, she would feel sorry for herself, "Your father was not killed by the assassins, they must have looked at your brother." ”

"Mother, the third brother still has some martial arts, not to mention that thirteen is not bad, where is it so easy to be killed." Su Lie is proficient in martial arts, and he knows more or less about Su Chen's depth, he looked at his wife who didn't know what to think at the door, and ordered: "Hong Zhen, it's not too early, you help your mother go back to rest." ”

"If you don't leave, Chen'er won't come back, and your mother won't go anywhere."

"Big brother." Su Lie was impatient, but he didn't dare to be angry with his mother, and turned his head to look at Su Yong, who was handling official business by candlelight, "You have a lot of reasoning, you come to persuade your mother." ”

Su Yong smiled, then put down the brush and rested on the inkstone, got up and walked to the woman's side and sat down to talk.
