Chapter 619: Misfortune

PS: Ask for a monthly pass!

When Wang Yong was talking to Matthew as he ran, Padraic, Alva, and a dozen people also heard Wang Yong's voice and surrounded him from the other direction.

Wang Yong listened to the neighing of war horses and the painful cries of the enemy from behind, and it became more and more dense, and he didn't care about saying anything, drew his sword and cut the rope of a war horse holding the plank, let Qingling and Shadow Dance ride together, and turned over on Matthew's war horse, more than 20 people and more than a dozen horses, and continued to run for their lives.

The cavalry of the Eternal Empire was very unlucky, especially the dozens of people at the front, they followed the dust and haze all the way to pursue, with years of experience, they knew that they were not far from the enemy, but just when they had seen the dawn of victory, they did not react in the gallop, and even the men and horses fell into the big pit that suddenly appeared.

This pit was dug by Matthew himself, Matthew and his team worked very hard, digging deep and big, and the cavalry of the Eternal Empire could only fill it up after dozens of people fell into it. But there are still a lot of large and small gaps between people and people, horses and horses, and people and horses who fall into the pit, and it is impossible to be as strong as dirt, so when the cavalry behind steps on the human ground, most of the war horses will be tripped up, and then the people behind can't stop running into it, so that the cycle, the original big pit suddenly turned over on their backs.

After discovering the problem, the officers who arrived later stopped the horse team behind in time, and when the smoke and dust dispersed, they did not care to save the wounded soldiers in the pit, and continued to chase after the detour under the constant urging of their superiors.

But with a delay of more than ten minutes, Wang Yong and the others at this time had already run far away, and it would be difficult to chase again, but the order of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, they had to carry it out, so they had to sort out their mood and bury themselves in pursuit, hoping that the guy in front would not run too fast.

Wang Yong and the others galloped all the way, but because the two of them rode a war horse. The speed naturally decreased greatly, and the large army in front of him slowly opened up a distance. The so-called disadvantages and advantages, although they are getting farther and farther away from the large army, when Wang Yong and his party are running wildly, the dust kicked up by the large group of people and horses has dispersed, and the sight has basically returned to normal.

Wang Yong's bones were about to fall apart when he sat on the horse's buttocks, but he still hugged Matthew's waist tightly and kept looking back to check the traces of the enemy.

Wang Yong asked Matthew loudly, "Are there any traps or anything like that?"

Matthew nodded and replied, "There are two more, not far ahead." As soon as Matthew's words fell, Wang Yong and his party all looked sideways at the other major intersection and the dozen or so soldiers of their own who were staring blankly at them.

Wang Yong and the others galloped past the eyes of the dozen or so soldiers. After a while, Wang Yong patted Matthew's shoulder and said with a suspicious expression: "Hey, those were our people just now, right? Why do they look stupid? Also, where does the other road lead? Why is there no one on the map?"

Matthew took a while to react, and said angrily, "Damn, we're on the wrong path." ”

Hearing this, Wang Yong straightened up and stretched his neck to look ahead, and saw that the smoke and dust were billowing in front of him, and his own team was in front. With a surprised face, he said, "No, it's our people in front, that's right." ”

Matthew wanted to cry without tears, and said, "They also went the wrong way, it was a fork in the road just now." The trap is set on that road, and that road is the way to the great river. ”

Wang Yong was stunned for a while before he reacted, and said angrily: "Damn, who the fuck led the way in front?"

Wang Yong looked back. Seeing that the enemy had already caught up, it was too late to stop and return to the right path, so he had to say to Matthew, "Where does this road lead?"

Matthew's head was like a drum, and he said, "I don't know." What should we do now?" Wang Yong wordlessly patted Matthew's shoulder and asked him to look behind him.

When Matthew saw that the enemy had caught up, he twitched his horsewhip and slammed it at the horse's buttocks, and shouted, "Everyone, run, the enemy is catching up." ”

At the same time, Wang Yong scolded Matthew: "Damn, you have pulled my leg, you are taking revenge, naked revenge." Matthew just pretended not to hear it, gritting his teeth and laughing evilly.

At the fork in the road, just after Wang Yong and the others rode by, the group of soldiers who were already dazed reacted, and one of the soldiers said: "Captain, am I mistaken? Why did those guys run to that road?"

Jennings, the third captain of the Fifth Wing, swallowed and said, "It's over, it's over." ”

The soldier asked, "What are we going to do now?" ”

Jennings hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "Pull the plank off the trap, let's go back and report it quickly, and let Francis quickly find a way to rescue." The soldiers were busy with all their hands and feet, removing the planks that covered the trap and hurried away.

Just twenty minutes ago, they had already prepared everything and saw their own people coming from afar, and they were bored waiting for them to walk out of the hiding point one after another, standing at the intersection and waving to greet them. But what they didn't expect was that when their leader saw them, he also smiled and waved his hand, and then jumped over the simple obstacle they had placed at another intersection and drove away.

The seashore was leading the way in front of George, he saw Jennings and them standing on the side of the road to greet them from a distance, and George also knew that he had set a trap on the road, and after looking at the two roads ahead, Joe, who had not seen a trap, naturally regarded Jennings's barricade with branches and vines as a trap. George knew that Jennings and the others would wait for their men to pass before activating the trap, so he confidently went straight to the barricade.

Just as George expected, after passing through the barricade, he did not fall into the trap that Jennings and the others dug, and after narcissistically admiring his courage, George stopped and shouted hello to Jennings and continued to gallop along the road, intending to be the first to cross the planned bridge.

Soon after Jennings and the others left, the cavalry of the Eternal Empire came to the three-way intersection, and the officer at the head saw from a distance that one intersection had a large pit like the one that had just been, and the other intersection had nothing.

Looking at the smoke and dust raised by the enemy troops in the distance, the officer smiled contemptuously, feeling that the other party's suspicious plan was too sloppy, but those recruits were okay, and they were a little tender if they wanted to be fooled, so the officer who led the way didn't think about it, and naturally chose the direction where the enemy brigade went.
