Chapter 963: Breaking into Qi Valley Alone
That night, the Qigu Pass ......
Tong Chen stationed his troops at the foot of Qigu Mountain, and he took the "captive" Lu Jing to the top of the mountain alone. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info along the way, Lu Jing has been uncertain in her heart, not because she is afraid that Tong Chen will do anything wrong with her, but she is just curious about Tong Chen's purpose in doing this......
Finally arrived at the top of the mountain in a dense forest clearing, the Quartet Array Road was followed by tall trees, Tong Chen untied the rope to escort Lu Jing, and he was holding a cold gun, wandering on both sides of the ancient road, seemingly idle but idle.
Lu Jing saw that the other party held her hostage but "let go" herself, and couldn't help but wonder: "What do you mean, am I not your prisoner? And for your whole army, I am your biggest enemy, isn't it, why did ......you let me go?"
Tong Chen looked calm, without the slightest appearance of a general, and said with a calm smile: "I don't care if you are a big trouble for our army, and I don't care if I am a general of the army...... I have only one purpose, to lure the descendants of the Tang family out, as long as he can appear in front of me and compete with me, even if I let you go, it's no ......"
"Heh, you're quite dedicated, you don't look like a general at all......" Looking at Tong Chen's strange but understanding behavior, Lu Jing smiled and said.
"I'm not a general...... Tong Chen couldn't help but show a faint sadness in his calmness, "The reason why I joined the army is just to repay Lord Timur's kindness...... I have also told Miss Lu about my past, I have experienced the collapse of my family, I have experienced the disaster of prison, since the destruction of my family, whether I am in prison or in the rivers and lakes, I have always been alone and have no friends. Mixing up the name of 'one of the three masters of the Western Regions' is actually just a false name......"
"You don't have any friends......" Lu Jing couldn't help but look cold in her eyes when she listened to Tong Chen's sad past, and muttered in a low voice.
"After all, the rivers and lakes in the Western Regions are sinister, no more than your Central Plains martial arts, the sect forces are incomparable, and there are even many people who rule to abide by their laws......" Tong Chen closed his eyes slightly, and then said, "But in the Western Regions, it is different-the sect gangs hate and kill each other, and the troubled times are sinister, and there will never be any human concerns...... Therefore, I have been in the Western Regions for more than ten years, but I have never had a real friend......"
"Without real friends, you ......can travel alone for a lifetime," Lu Jing continued to say slowly, it seemed that in Lu Jing's heart, she couldn't help but feel a little pity for Tong Chen.
"But even if I don't have friends, I've still come all the way, isn't it?——" Tong Chen continued to say calmly, "Whether the family is destroyed or the prison is in prison, I have survived it alone...... Although I think I am young, I have experienced a lot in the world, and even if I am unfortunately widowed one day, I have no regrets......"
Lu Jing looked at Tong Chen's straightforwardness, and couldn't help but mention: "You have encountered countless hardships, and you don't have any friends, it's really rare for you to have such a free and easy personality......
"Heh, whatever you want, this is my nature...... Tong Chen continued to say calmly, "I have said, I have experienced all kinds of hardships, I have always laughed at everything, even if I unfortunately come to the end of my life, I have no regrets......"
"No, in my opinion, you still have regrets-" Lu Jing couldn't help but look confused when she heard this.
"What did you say?" Hearing Lu Jing's sudden questioning, Tong Chen couldn't help but ask rhetorically.
"I said you still have regrets-" Lu Jing continued without hesitation, "You don't have friends, this is your biggest regret!"
When Tong Chen heard this, he couldn't help frowning, maybe he said it to his heart, but it was not deep. Looking at Lu Jing's sudden and firm eyes, Tong Chen couldn't help but smile and said, "Friend, hmph, I don't have friends, but it doesn't matter...... I don't have friends because fate is difficult, and I can't help it, even if it's really a pity, it's destiny that there is no way, just because my life is miserable, and I try to look down on all this......"
"Really...... Is this like this?" Lu Jing didn't stop there, and continued to ask, "Can you really ...... Do you look down on all this? After experiencing a lot of hardships in the world, you have no regrets at all...... Or do you feel it?"
Hearing this, Tong Chen thought about it calmly, retracted a little reluctant smile, and said slowly: "To be honest, I really thought about it, especially after seeing you......"
As if she wanted to express her thoughts, Lu Jing concentrated on the side and listened carefully.
"The first meeting, when the old man Sima and the Canglong hero fought, I watched the safety of the disciples of the Canglong Hero who cared about the wind chasing faction, knowing the trap but also fighting alone in the 'Chan Yi Formation', and I felt ...... at that time" Tong Chen couldn't help recalling, "And the last battle, I used a trick to cut off your troops from the canyon, Miss Lu, you don't care about the danger, as a general, but you also took the lead, jumping into the encirclement of our army alone, and I and the descendants of the Tang family have been facing each other alone, but he refuses to fight against me, and resolutely decisive." Confess 'turn back, just because you are worried about your safety...... It's not that I don't understand, it's just that I've never experienced it, I've never had friends, but I have a kind of dark expectation about that feeling......"
"That's your regret-" Lu Jing suddenly concluded, "Although you have experienced a lot, you have never had friends, even if you have been in the rivers and lakes for ten years, you will only have sadness and regrets......"
"Yes......" Hearing this, Tong Chen couldn't help but smile secretly, "If I can have this opportunity, I really want to experience it...... But now that the war is raging, I'm afraid there won't be much of a chance......"
The last sentence obviously hides a faint helplessness......
At the moment of Qigu, Mengyuan is stationed......
Originally, I had been waiting for the meeting of the partial army troops early this morning, but I had no choice but to get the bad news from the front -- the large camp of the partial army suffered a night attack, the army, food and grass suffered heavy losses, and there was only one enemy soldier.
This is exactly the battle of Tang Zhan who broke into the camp alone last night, and the enemy army was terrified. After Tong Chen got the news, he guessed that it was Tang Zhan's doing, so he had a whimsy, and the troops stationed in Qigu were on standby, and he took Lu Jing, a "prisoner of war", and went to the top of the mountain alone......
That night, the firelight company camp, the camp where the Mengyuan garrison was located, was heavily guarded by layers of defenders......
At this moment, in the direction of the secret passage in front of the camp gate, several horse-drawn carriages that seemed to be consigning armaments were slowly driving towards the station......
Approaching the camp gate, the garrison guard stopped him, raised his torch and asked, "Which army are you from, and what are you carrying in the car?"
"Transport...... It's ...... The oil of the brass cannon ......" the groom soldier trembled as if he was shivering and panicking, "we are...... Timur sent a ...... ...... sent"
"Why are you talking so much?" Seeing the other party's somewhat "weak-hearted" appearance, the guard couldn't help but wonder, "Are you hiding something from us, or are you lying?"
"No...... No...... No...... the groom was still very flustered, and said that there was nothing, but the fool could also see that there must be "ghosts" in it.
"No, what are you nervous about—" The other guard shouted deliberately when he saw that "something was wrong".
"I ...... I...... I just got a wind chill......" The groom barely made up a decent reason, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and then he asked in a trembling voice, "Tong...... Where is General Tong now?"
"Didn't you come to deliver the oil on the orders of Lord Timur, and ask what our general is doing?" the guard asked in a cold voice, sensing that something was wrong.
"Ask for ...... I beg you to tell me...... "The groom made a look of wanting to ask for mercy, much to the surprise and confusion of the two guards.
"Please?" The guard felt that it was nothing, looking at the other party's nervousness as if he was in a hurry, he was afraid that he would delay something, not to mention that it was all his own people, so he didn't think much about it and said directly, "General Tong took the prisoners of the enemy army and went to the top of Qigu Mountain alone...... Who knew that early in the morning, they got information that the partial army encountered a sneak attack by the enemy on the front line......"
"If you want me to do it, I'll ...... I...... I've done it all, can ...... Let me go......" However, the groom cried inexplicably as if frightened.
The two guards didn't understand the groom's words, obviously not to the two of them. From time to time, the groom glanced at the back of the carriage, and the two suddenly realized that the situation was not right, and they all raised their spears and shouted, "Hey, is there anyone behind ?——the carriage?"
The groom was too frightened to speak, and shook his head vigorously.
"Get out of the way!" the guard shouted, threatening the groom with a spear, and the two of them stepped forward to search the car.
The groom still didn't dare to speak, and his pants were wet with fright. The two guards approached the carriage and prepared to poke into it with their weapons—they were sure there must be something strange in the carriage......
"Whoosh-" But the moment the curtain was opened, a cold light rushed by.
"Ahh......h
The carport was opened, and the person in the ambush car turned out to be Tang Zhan - it turned out that Tang Zhan knew that this was a carriage to Qigu at the beginning, and got into the carriage by feeling the night, and hijacked the groom in the car, while threatening him to continue to lead the way, and ordering him to ask about the whereabouts of Tong Chen and Lu Jing.
"Don't kill me...... Don't kill me......" The groom saw the two corpses lying on their heads, trembling with fright.
The groom was indeed a little timid, but the purpose was achieved. Tang Zhan didn't pay much attention to it, kicked the groom out of the carport, and he continued to command the carriage and charged towards the garrison camp......
"Drive-drive-" Tang Zhan sped up the carriage while looking at the enemy camp in front of him, as if he was confident, and broke into the Mengyuan garrison alone, just like last night's sneak attack on the camp of the partial army......
"There are enemy troops breaking into the camp, be on guard - be on ......alert" The military situation in front of the lookout was urgent, and there was a sudden commotion in the camp, watching Tang Zhan riding alone in the royal car, remembering that he heard about Tang Zhan's "breaking into the camp" last night, and the Mengyuan army panicked before fighting.
Tang Zhan is eyes were determined, he had already thought of the countermeasures to break into the camp alone, and he did not hesitate to make decisions, but he was calm when he was facing the enemy......
"Kill-" In front of the garrison array, some of the Mengyuan soldiers who were waiting in formation were already carrying spear blades and approaching aggressively in the direction of Tang Zhan's imperial horse.
But Tang Zhan was not afraid at all, not only did he not slow down his horse's speed, but also rushed forward without hesitation. The pear flower spear has not been revealed, and Tang Zhan's bare hand ride seems to be determined to win!
"Ahh
Tang Zhan was calm, his right hand waved his arm to escape, and with the strength of the carriage, before the sharp blade could be approached, he had already knocked it off the horse with one arm.
"Ahh Tang Zhan not only killed the enemy general, but also snatched the enemy's torches with his bare hands, and seemed to be moved......
The armies were intimidated by the lone army of Tang Zhan, but they did not dare to step forward when the sword came. And Tang Zhan was unstoppable, and in the solo killing formation, he made an amazing move......
Tang Zhan still didn't draw his gun, but threw the torch in his hand backwards - the torch ignited the carriage behind him, and the back of the carport quickly burned.
You know, this is a horse-drawn cart carrying fire oil......
"Whew-" A gust of wind, the ghost fire suddenly ignited, and the flames raised by the fire oil swallowed the whole carriage in a sea of fire in an instant. Tang Zhan continued to control the war horse, until the flames completely engulfed him, and the war horse convoy instantly melted into a "fire dragon" that deterred the array, and the Mengyuan camp under the Qi Valley traveled for hundreds of miles, like a wind......
It didn't matter if the fire was lit, the whole convoy turned into a "wave of fire", and the camp was full of bears. The horses neighed and scattered, and the sea of fire continued to smoke and clouds.
In the school field, next to the camp, where the "fire horses" scurried through, they were all engulfed by the flames. Within a moment, fires broke out at the foot of Qigu Mountain, and the entire Mengyuan camp was shrouded in flames. The power of the oil was really strong, and Tang Zhan actually came up with such a way to fight for his life and raid the camp with the "Fire Dragon Car Array". Although the strategy is very risky, it seems that it has indeed worked well......
"Ahh............h
"Hurry up and put out the fire!" The morale of the army was greatly damaged, but the officers and men in the formation had not given up, and the generals who defended the camp saw that the fire in the barracks was spreading rapidly, and the troops were assigned to organize the extinguishing of the fire in the chaos.
But the fire engulfed too quickly, and under the overlook, the "Fire Horse Blazing Light" galloped and burned rapidly, not to mention controlling the fire in the camp, and now the military camp is in chaos, and it is difficult to find a way to stop this column of "Fire Horses......
The Qigu camp was suddenly shrouded in a sea of fire, and Tang Zhan only used a simple fire attack to burn the enemy camp to the hearts of the army, and they were afraid of the head......
However, at this moment, Tang Zhan was on his way to the top of Qigu Mountain - burning down the enemy camp, Tang Zhan had already escaped. The real purpose of Tang Zhan was only to go to the destination to make an appointment with Tong Chen, so he was determined to fight against him and rescue Lu Jing trapped under the enemy.
Who would have thought that a simple "disturbance of the camp" would be able to startle such a big movement and deter the enemy. Tang Zhan took one last look down at the "Sea of Fire" halfway up the mountain, couldn't help but smile lightly, and then ran to the top of the mountain......
