Chapter 9: The Pursuit

The eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty had twelve eunuchs, of which the two most important eunuchs were the celebrant supervisor and the imperial horse supervisor, although the grade was not high, but the real power was amazing. The pen "Fun" cabinet www.biquge.info the celebrant on behalf of the emperor to approve the cabinet votes, and the cabinet to the handle of the secret, has the right to approve the red, in fact, the real power was once above the cabinet, the control of the East Factory to rectify the hundred officials. The Imperial Horse Supervisor and the Ministry of War and the Governor jointly hold the military authority, which is actually the "cardinal government" of the inner court, which has the military and financial power of the inner court, and controls the West Factory and the East Factory to fight against each other. The celebrant and the second eunuch of the imperial horse are the top civil and military authority that the emperor holds tightly in his hands!

Yuhuatian served as the governor of Xichang, in fact, the next position was the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor, Wan Guifei's favor of Yuhuatian is equivalent to the favor of the lord of Long Live to believe him, and the military power and security of the palace are in the hands of Yuhuatian.

The so-called royal horse is the only cavalry (including the infantry army) controlled by the inner court, independent of the military department, and is an armed force that the emperor can directly control.

This run is half a day, from noon directly to the evening, halfway has slowed down the horse rest, the enemy is not only resting, but also changed horses, such as the maggot of the bone can not be shaken off, twice the enemy is thrown out of sight, but the enemy still quickly followed up, the nose is more agile than a dog, obviously there are masters in the team who are good at tracking, the enemy is more shrewd and capable, to the end, there are dozens of people have taken off their heavy armor, light equipment is approaching!

After several unsuccessful attempts to get rid of it and several encounters on the way, Yuhuatian's horses were already listless, because food and water were lost in battle, and the people were also low in energy, and sleeping in the open could not recover well for him, who had always been wealthy.

When it was almost dark, Yuhuatian had no choice but to ride his horse towards the mountains of Heiwuwu, and made up his mind that when he reached a place where it was inconvenient for the war horse to walk, he abandoned the horse and left, not believing that the enemy would be able to chase and kill him without a horse. There are not many enemies, and it is not the more than 1,000 people that Ma Baihu said before, running and stopping, Yuhuatian judged that the enemy is at most more than 300 people!

The closer you get to the mountains, the more grass there is, and gradually the meadows are connected, and the trees begin to increase, looking at the mountains, lush and green, and the previous Great Gobi is completely two worlds, with all kinds of unknown birds and beasts haunting it. At the foot of the mountain, the rain field soars to the sky, rises five or six meters, a big tree on the left hand, the white figure is at the top of the tree and disappears, and in a blink of an eye it has gone deep into the mountain forest.

Kicked hard by Yuhuatian's leap, the horse had been forced to lift the horse's head and struggled to move forward, beyond the limit of the body, and at this time it could no longer be controlled, and fell to the ground, foaming at the mouth, his body twitched, and he kicked his legs twice from time to time, and he couldn't stand up.

"Call" to the foot of the mountain, Daniel Zhang, who was in the lead, stopped the war horse and looked at the dead horse that had fallen on the ground. shouted, "Zhang Stop, you take a small team to stay in the rear and arrange for them to patrol the foot of the mountain so that the enemy does not escape, Zhang Lan, you follow me up the mountain to kill the enemy."

Zhang Zhu was a strong man with a big beard, shrugged his shoulders like an eagle, his eyes were fierce like jackals, and he reluctantly shouted when he heard the words, "General, you taught us to enter the forest, and said that the poor Kou Mo chases, the mountains are high and the forests are dense here, I want to follow your left and right, let Zhang Lan wait for the rear army here."

Zhang Lan was clear-eyed, and said with a smile, "A grass coward, with me to follow the general, you can wait with peace of mind!"

"Zhang stopped, you have a fierce face, just to deter people from Beijing, it doesn't feel right to fight the enemy just now, the horse bandits rampant in the northwest are not so easy to kill. And these people didn't run away until we got close, which seems to have a hidden secret. Your delicate mind is just not attached to your face, and after a while, when the people captured by the rear army arrive, find out the details, make a good decision, don't be careless, prevent people from coming to Beijing to make trouble, don't kill prisoners, wait for me to come back and deal with it, if there is a change in the message to recruit me, I will go to capture the enemy" It turned out that Zhang Zhumian was disgusting and fine, and he was a good hand of the Mongolian people. Daniel Zhang is also making the best use of things.

Daniel Zhang sank slightly, and then said, "Pay attention to vigilance, the enemy's martial arts are strong, I'm afraid that it is a few points stronger than me, be careful of the enemy detour and kill back!"

The troops dismounted, Daniel Zhang made up two pots of arrows from the others and lost behind him, and took more than thirty people to drop the long soldiers, holding long bows, and rushed forward in the direction where Yuhuatian disappeared, these more than thirty people were agile, and they couldn't see their backs in a blink of an eye.

There were only more than 20 cavalrymen left, some gathered their horses, some picked up the long soldiers and put them together, and some took off the leather bags on their horses and drank their horses!

Another hour or two later, the sky was already dark, the moonlight was bright, the earth was white, and more than 200 people arrived in two groups, and when they were far away, one of them shouted, "Stop Master, you have made a fortune, these people have brought a lot of property," and a few riders dropped a few packages in front of them, and the packages jingled to the ground.

Zhang Zhuhun didn't care, glanced at the three men and women who were tied up and gagged, and asked the cavalry later, "Why don't you see people from Beijing?"

The cavalry was full of disdain, "Those guys have fine skin and tender meat, and there are no eggs to grow things, they only know how to shrink back, and they have been hiding behind and refusing to come forward since the beginning of the charge, who knows where they went, and I guess how they can get here at noon tomorrow!"

Zhang Zhu nodded, counted the number of people, broke four brothers, and two were injured, shook his head, and instructed people to bury the dead horse.

Everyone is old in the army, each does his own thing, after choosing a resting place, some people bury pots, some people sentry, some people clean up the grassland, and some people go to extract prisoners, the army does not bring people and camp tents, Zhang Hu plans to sleep in the open for one night, and does not camp!

When everything stopped, Zhang stopped ordering people to open a few packages, spread them in front of him, and after a slight inspection, his face turned white, and he turned a blind eye to the gold beads in the package, grabbed a few clothes in the package and unfolded them in the wind, pinched the robe of the brocade guard, and muttered, "It's trouble!"

Turning his head and pointing at the three people who were tied to the ground, "What kind of weapon are they using!"

A soldier carried a knife and handed it to Zhang Zhu, and said fiercely, "The knife and sword are good, stronger than our waist knife, that girl also stabbed one of our brothers to death, and washed her for a while to let her enjoy it!"

Zhang Zhu didn't reply, took the long knife with a gloomy face, "Embroidered Spring Knife, damn", gritted his teeth, and vaguely felt that the stuffing was in big trouble, "Bring those three people to me", the soldier who handed the knife heard the three words of the Embroidered Spring Knife, and his face changed greatly, obviously he also knew what the Embroidered Spring Knife represented!

Carefully and repeatedly asked the three of them, the sturdy man sneered, and said in a vague way, knowing everything, and saying everything, but for a while, Zhang Zhu knew everything about the situation of these people.

While ordering people to feed the three captives, he made a quick decision, ordered several powerful people to look at the sky and open their bows, and shot rockets with sounds, and the long sound of "woo~~~" pierced the sky in an instant, like a fire meteor flying upside down, which was particularly conspicuous in the lonely night sky!
