Chapter 301: The Bamboo Forest Qingxiao

Hearing the news of the attack on King Ji's tent at first glance, Xing Chengbiao was a little panicked for a while, and several thoughts came up one after another-

Was it Song Xingye's men and horses in Jingyang City breaking through? Was it a sneak attack launched by Song Qingfeng's forbidden army? Or was it another ambush army laid out by the emperor in advance?......

After trying to calm himself, he asked in a deep voice to the soldier who had reported the news: "Have you found out where the other party is from?

The soldier replied: "The identity of the other party has not been ascertained yet, and there should be only a few hundred people." But these people are all extraordinary, and Deputy Dutong Li, who was escorting His Royal Highness King Ji, was actually injured by them. ”

"Hundreds?"

Xing Chengbiao couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. No matter who the other party is, with only a few hundred people, it is impossible to move His Royal Highness King Ji, who is heavily guarded.

However, after relieving himself, he couldn't help but start thinking again, what was the purpose of the other party's move?

These hundreds of people are highly skilled, and they should not be the guards or the forbidden army, so the biggest possibility is that they are masters of the Great Interior.

According to the report of the spies who were responsible for monitoring the movements of Jingyang City, Zheng Yong, the head of Ouchi, did not go to the imperial tomb with him, but brought many Ouchi masters to arrest Zuo Xiang's father and son in the city.

It is likely that the traitorous eunuch heard that the imperial tomb was besieged, so he took those masters to attack the camp of King Ji, trying to capture King Ji as a hostage in order to rescue His Majesty the Emperor who was trapped.

Hmph, in this case, the traitor really has to make a desperate bet!

If the emperor is gone, I'm afraid he, the chief administrator, won't live for one more day.

I heard that King Ji really hated this treacherous old eunuch, and thought about splitting his five horses all day long!

Today, since this old eunuch sent it to the door by himself, with such a merit, how could he, the general Fuyuan, who was already completely loyal to His Royal Highness King Ji, give it away?

Besides, he led his troops to King Qin at this moment, and the attack on the imperial tomb here naturally had to be suspended.

Anyway, if you can delay it for a while, it's a while. It is best to delay until the Eastern Navy of Yan Jiwu, Marquis of Dongping, arrives and begins to engage Song Qingfeng's forbidden army head-on.

At that time, he can directly lead the Western Route Army to attack the forbidden army from behind, and finally give the imperial tomb to Yan Jiwu to attack.

Thinking of this, Xing Chengbiao's face couldn't help but show a smug smile.

It seems that even God is helping him, and he actually sent Zheng Yong over at this time, giving himself a wonderful opportunity and excuse.

"Immediately send the order, the personal guards urgently assemble, and go to the outside of Jingyang City with General Ben to rescue the driver!" said Xing Chengbiao as he stood up from the folding couch.

The soldier hurriedly answered, and ran outside to give orders.

In just a few moments, the eight hundred soldiers of the personal guard had already gathered, followed behind the general Xing, and hurried in the direction of Jingyang City together.

It was almost dawn and the sky was getting brighter.

These eight hundred knights of the Golden Iron Horse roared by, like a team of heavenly soldiers, breaking through the mist of dawn.

The horse's hooves trampled on the green grass stained with morning dew, and there was a chaotic splash of water all around.

Fuyuan General Xing Chengbiao took the lead, and his face, which was originally slightly dark, exuded a dark red light because of the excitement in his chest.

Seeing that I turned a bamboo forest in front of me, I arrived at the stone bridge across the Jingyang River.

After crossing the stone bridge, it was the layers of camp tents set up by 20,000 West Route Army outside the entire Jingyang City. And His Royal Highness King Ji is being attacked there and waiting for help.

At this moment, Xing Chengbiao only hoped in his heart that the masters led by Zheng Yong had not been completely defeated, and it was best to wait until he personally cut off the head of the traitorous eunuch!

Driven by this thought, he was unconsciously clamping the belly of the brown-black Wanliang horse with his knees more vigorously to urge it to speed forward.

The captain of the guard, who was originally following him closely, was suddenly pulled away by him.

However, the captain of the guard did not try to catch up any further, but slowed his horse even more, and the distance between them was several feet.

The captain of the guard did this because he had already seen the bamboo forest in front of him.

As he passed there yesterday, he had noticed that the path around the bamboo forest was extremely narrow and a sharp bend, so it was not advisable to go too fast.

In addition, it is important not to follow each other too closely, in case the horse in front of you makes a mistake when turning, the horse following behind is likely to trip and be injured.

Although the speed slowed down, the attention of the captain of the guard was always on the general who was galloping on his horse in front of him.

I saw that when the general reached the edge of the bamboo forest, he did not slow down his horse at all, but took the reins to the side very skillfully, and immediately became one, turned the sharp bend extremely chic and beautiful, and disappeared on the other side of the bamboo forest.

Then the captain of the guard heard the sound of the general's horses' hooves, still rushing forward without slowing down.

When he himself rushed to the edge of the bamboo forest, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in front of him suddenly become crisp, and he guessed that the general should have been on the bluestone slab bridge across the Jingyang River at this moment.

He immediately reined in his horse, and carefully turned the sharp bend.

As soon as he bypassed the dense bamboo forest in front of him, the vision of the captain of the guard suddenly widened.

He hurriedly raised his eyes to look at the general on the stone bridge, and saw that he had already galloped across most of the stone bridge.

However, when he stared at it again, he couldn't help but be frightened!

Just because he suddenly found that the head of the great general who was sitting on the horse was gone!

At this moment, the great Wanliang horse on which the general was sitting seemed to realize that something was wrong, and suddenly he staggered, and tilted the headless corpse on its back to one side, and actually climbed out of the fence of the stone bridge, which was not very wide, and fell straight under the bridge.

Immediately after, there was a muffled sound of "plopping", and after stirring up a large splash, the headless body of the general disappeared......

The captain of the personal guard, who witnessed all this, was suddenly stupid. And the 800 guards who arrived immediately behind were all stupid.

Only the great horse, which had lost its master, continued to gallop forward with its hooves flying, and soon ran off the stone bridge and broke into the camp of the Western Route Army not far away.

And its sudden appearance suddenly made this already turbulent military camp even more chaotic.

At this moment, hundreds of black-clothed and masked Xingyuntang killers were rushing back and forth in this military camp under the leadership of Gu Ning.

Their target seemed to be the tent of the Chinese army commander with the imperial flag hanging outside, but every time they encountered the desperate resistance of many soldiers guarding the tent, these killers immediately dispersed and turned to attack elsewhere.

And those soldiers who were guarding in front of the tent had been given strict orders, and they did not dare to leave their posts without permission to pursue those killers.

In this way, it is actually those killers with strong skills who rush to and fro in this military camp, come and go freely, stirring up more and more chaos.

At this moment, a clear whistle that resounded through the sky suddenly came from the direction of the bamboo forest on the other side of the river.

Gu Ning, who was leading people to kill, couldn't help but show a strange smile on his long cold and blue face after hearing this clear roar.

Immediately, he also whistled a few times, summoned those Xingyuntang killers who were not attacking with all their might, and turned around and broke through outside the barracks.

At the same time, this clear whistle will still be trapped in the nightmare in front of him, Xing Chengbiao's eight hundred personal guards, completely woke up.

These guards, who were obviously out of order, rushed to the river one after another, trying to salvage the body of their great general ashore.

But when they arrived at the river, they saw the rushing river flowing, and where could they find the shadow of the great general who had lost his head?

In the end, these unfounded, under the leadership of the captain of the guard, all returned to the Western Route Army camp by the imperial tomb with a dazed and bewildered expression.

Who knew that as soon as they entered the gate, they saw that the big tent that originally belonged to the commander General Xing had been surrounded by the soldiers in the camp.

However, at this moment, the eyes of those soldiers did not look at the empty tent, but raised their heads one by one, silently looking upward.

The captain of the guard couldn't help but follow their gaze and looked up—

I saw that in front of the big tent, at the top of the flagpole with the handsome word flag, the head of their general Xing was still dripping with blood......
