"Who is that?"

The cheers on the wall of Bailu County naturally aroused the attention of the Yaotian Army, and in the center of the camp, the Yaotian King and the bandit leaders stood on an earthen platform several meters high, closely observing the movements of the cavalry, so as to give timely response orders. At this moment, their eyes turned to the city gate together.

"Just a messenger, right?"

The distance was too far to see clearly, and they couldn't imagine that the little black dot riding alone was actually Guangling Qianhu Luodong.

The military advisor beside King Yao Tian was analyzing: "The only thing that can cause the people to cheer is that they have received the exact news, and the crisis is resolved...... In this way, it must not be enough to rely on this hundred cavalry, and it is likely that there will be a large number of men and horses arriving one after another. ”

As soon as he analyzed it like this, it was terrible that those bandit leaders were nervous, and someone said: "It's just this Guangling cavalry, which makes us anxious, if you say, the Guangling Mansion also sent troops, and let Luo Dong command, it doesn't take much, a thousand people are enough to destroy us." ”

A hundred horses scared us so much that we didn't dare to come forward, and if a team of 1,000 people came, we had to destroy them directly?

In fact, what they are afraid of is not the number of officers and soldiers, but the person who is still afraid of Luo Dong.

How many soldiers there are in the entire Guangling Mansion, these bandits all know in their hearts, if they are afraid of them, where will they dare to rebel, but they never expected that there would be such a bad star as Luo Dong suddenly jumped up.

"If you stay here, you will surely die!"

Someone said again: "Heavenly King, let's withdraw quickly, while Luo Dong has not yet led troops to kill." ”

"Where do you want to go?"

Yaotian King said lightly, although he was more afraid of Luo Dong than anyone else in his heart (the psychological shadow caused by the second venerable falling into Luo Dong's hands), but in front of them, he still had to pretend to be calm and calm.

"Anywhere, don't let Luo Dong catch up. ”

A bandit leader immediately replied: "If you can't do it, you will leave Guangling and go to other prefectures and even other provinces! Luo Dong is also an official, and there is a saying in one jurisdiction that it is not allowed to cross the border casually with local troops." ”

"Well, this one, this one!"

Others echoed: "The world is so big, you can rebel anywhere, and if you go to other places, maybe you will attract more people, and you can still have a foundation to sit down and guard." ”

But there are still people who are more sober: "But the problem is that with so many people, we can't go fast, and in a few days, we will be caught up by officers and soldiers." ”

The little joy that the others had just risen was immediately extinguished by a large basin of cold water: yes, it is not fast to walk with the people, but if you dump them, how can you resist the harassment of the cavalry?

If there is no people's shield, just a hundred horses under Luo's hands, we can eat away little by little. They are amazing, and they really understood it a few days ago.

This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what can I do?

After thinking about it, I just didn't think about fighting with the officers and soldiers. Why do you have to work hard, it is better to drink wine in a big bowl and eat meat in a big bowl on the original mountain.

Seeing them hesitating and flustered, King Yao Tian sneered in his heart: "A group of waste, can't do anything, it's just a life that is manipulated and used by others." ”

For his own safety, he is not too worried, martial arts are in his body, it is a big deal to abscond at night, kill the stand-in that has been prepared long ago in the big tent before escaping, and disguise himself to death. Thinking that Luo Dong has never seen himself, it is impossible to see the flaws.

They hesitated here, and Luo Chong had already returned to the original high slope.

Zheng Zhixian had just proposed to put down the hanging basket from above and invite Luo Chong to enter the city to rest, but Luo Chong refused. Zheng Zhixian was just polite, even if he was a civilian official, he also knew that the commander who led the troops to fight would have a person hiding in the city, and he would definitely be with his sergeants.

The next process does not need to be detailed, after more than an hour, Ma Hanzi's harassment tactics were not bad, and more than 2,000 people were rescued one after another.

That's a lot, and besides, Ma Hanzi and they are also tired, after all, it's not a leisurely three-hour horseback ride, and the body and mind are quite consumed.

Thundered......

When the cavalry left, they should also give the thieves some time to breathe, and they should not be pushed too hard at once, lest they collapse because they can't bear the pressure, and they will take the extreme catharsis of wantonly slashing and killing the people.

Besides, what Luo Chong meant was that if it lasted for a few days, it couldn't be done all at once.

Early the next morning, the thieves pulled out the camp and drove the people to the northeast, because that direction was closest to the canal, and their idea was that they could run as far as they could, and as soon as possible they could successfully cross the river before they were overtaken by the officers and soldiers, so that they could defend the shore and attack halfway through, and only then would they have the courage to confront the officers and soldiers by taking advantage of the terrain.

The terrain advantage is the bandit's biggest reliance, and they have played like this all their lives.

"Sixty miles!"

Ma Hanzi sat on the horse, looking at the winding anti-thief team like a long snake formation in the wilderness from a distance, and smiled at Luo Chong: "They will walk for five or six days at the fastest speed." ”

"Well, then in five days, let them see the canal, see hope, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop. ”

Luo Chong ordered: "Send scouts to intercept Hong Haishan, let them turn immediately, speed up the march, rush to the canal in advance to find advantageous terrain and ambush it...... Aren't these guys just fond of playing with terrain, so let's use what they're good at dealing with them. ”

"Whoa!"

Ma Hanzi turned the horse's head and took the order.

In the next few days, Luo Chong personally led the team and constantly harassed the marching team of anti-thieves, but not for the purpose of killing, but to save people as much as possible.

Although the wilderness is empty, the terrain is uneven, and tens of thousands of people cannot be squeezed into a heap no matter what, and it will inevitably be pulled into a long snake formation.

The harassment of the cavalry made it difficult for them to take care of it, and it was full of loopholes, so naturally there was a lot of opportunity to rescue more people.

The people had long seen the hope of being rescued, and the original numbness quickly subsided, and they all evolved and improved, and gradually they all understood how to cooperate with the harassing impact of the cavalry.

The people who have relatives have also awakened: run away if you can, don't think about running away with your family. I escaped in this wave, she escaped in that wave, and I will find a way to meet again in the future, even if I can't meet him halfway, I have the instinctive consciousness to return to my hometown. The rest, it's up to fate.

The escape of the people did not make the bandits panic excessively, but they all had another kind of happiness and hope: for five consecutive days, they were not caught up by more officers and soldiers.

It's right to think about it, those soldiers in Guanglingwei have long been rotten, it's better for us to endure hardships, the Acropolis is far away from here, and it's not surprising that we can't catch up.

As for the cavalry who kept harassing them, because there were so many times, they couldn't tell whether they were experienced or numb, anyway, they only felt that they were not as flustered and scared as before.

Stick to it, cross the canal, get rid of the devil Luo Dong, and it's all right!

During this period, on the side of Guangling Town, there were also martial arts masters who quietly sneaked into the town, because they thought that Luo Chong had led his troops out to quell the chaos, and his home was empty, and it was the best time to rescue the Second Venerable.

But this time, there was only one person, and with some kind of induction between the same door, he was able to find the room where the female assassin was being held in a very ordinary way.

"There's not even a guard, isn't it, she was stripped of her internal strength and cut off her limbs?"

Before entering the door, this person also had such a situation in his mind that he thought was the least optimistic.

Went in silently, and the doors and windows were not opened, and it can be seen that this person has a unique skill, and his movements are sensitive and swift, and he can almost perform magic tricks like piercing walls.

The female assassin seemed to have senses, although her internal strength was sealed, and her perception in all aspects was greatly weakened.

"Great Venerable?"

She squinted slightly, her face was dirty, and her body was already stinking.

Eating and drinking Lazar are all in this room, and I can't take a bath and change clothes, so it's no wonder that it doesn't stink after so many days. No matter how beautiful you are, you are still mortal, and it stinks the same.

"It's me. ”

The person who came responded in a low voice, seeing that her limbs were sound and not like she had been scattered, and suddenly her heart was light: the situation was not very bad, but her internal force was completely closed.

"You shouldn't have come. ”

The female assassin shook her head and smiled bitterly, also self-deprecating: "It seems that this is not the first time I have said this. ”

"Don't worry. ”

The Great Venerable said in a low voice, "He led his troops to quell the chaos, and he was no longer in the town a few days ago. ”

"Really?"

The female assassin was overjoyed, no wonder she hadn't seen him for a few days, no matter what she asked of the servants, he didn't come.

"I'll take you away. ”

The Great Venerable nodded, quite calm.

"Don't hurt his family!"

The female assassin hurriedly reminded: "This person is extremely terrifying, you must not form a deep enmity with him, maybe there will be ...... in the future"

As he spoke, the Great Venerable walked over in two steps, but when he reached the third step, his body trembled, as if he had been sucked out of his whole body in an instant, and he collapsed softly.

"Your Excellency. ”

The female assassin struggled to get up and pushed him with her hands on the ground, and the Great Venerable remained motionless, lying face down, his facial expression slightly shocked, but his eyes were frozen.

Hope comes and goes suddenly...... Tema's faster!

It's better not to come!

The female assassin shrank back into the corner with a dull expression, and after a few seconds, her expression changed to extreme despair, hugging her knees, and began to cry silently, which soon turned into sobs, and finally she cried out loud.

I never thought that one day I would cry, and I cried so sadly......

To the northeast, less than three miles from the canal, there is a section of road carved out of several mountains, the official name is Hengduan Mountain, and the common people call it ulnar ditch, which means that in order to open the way in the mountains, too many coolies died, and every foot under the feet will be buried with a corpse.

The road was for the service of the canal, which could lead to Quang Ling Province, as well as other state capitals to the west, and even to the Western Regions. As for the Grand Canal, there were more and more dead.

"Ulnar sulcus!"

Luo Chong nodded: "The place is well chosen, it is not narrow, it will not accidentally injure too many people, and it will not let too many people escape." ”

Those bandits scattered among the people and fled, Luo Chong allowed it, but King Yaotian and those bandit leaders definitely can't.

It is better to use the bow and arrow in your hand to be named than to let the first evil escape.
