Chapter 34: The Pursuit
Liang Yuanzhui knocked over the man who seemed to be the main commander with a shot, and suddenly came to his senses and shouted: "We fell for the plan of the Xue thief golden silkworm to get out of the shell." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
As he spoke, the two horses went straight into the Hejian military formation, those soldiers had already given up resistance, Bai Muqiu stepped on the horse's head, leaped down, pulled over a lieutenant general and asked: "Tell the Sprinkle family honestly, when did the thief leave last night, how many people and horses did he take away, and in which direction?"
The man shook his head, as if he didn't want to say.
Bang.......
Bai Muqiu didn't talk nonsense, he covered the other party's forehead with one palm, directly shattered the skull, disturbed the brain, instantly turned into a corpse, and fell down.
"Don't you speak? hehe...next!"
The surrounding generals looked at his cold gaze, and they all shivered, and one of the generals shouted: "Brothers, we have surrendered, this eunuch...... It's better to rush and kill....they ......"
Boom!
A golden melon sledgehammer flew over and smashed on his head, bursting open along with his helmet, leaving his bare neck still there. Jin Jiu's fierce god Pegasus came over and picked up the sledgehammer with blurred blood stains on the ground, and shouted fiercely: "Which one is not long-eyed, what my father-in-law asks you, it is better to answer! ”
“****.....”
"Dare to kill ........"
"Will it kill us?"
The surrounding sergeants who were originally relatively numb were stimulated by Jin Jiu's tyrannical murder at the same time, as if they had exploded, and some of them were boiling violently, wanting to raise their weapons and fight to the death, but they were nailed to the ground by the cold iron spear. Some of them were frightened, their bodies kept shaking, and they looked at them in horror, without the slightest courage to resist.
The thousand cavalry who cut into the formation immediately reacted and divided the force that wanted to resist into several sections and surrounded them, and the Chinese army on Zhao Ji's side also began to move towards this side, which suppressed the surging and angry soldiers.
Bai Muqiu wiped the blood stains on his hands on the dead corpse, and a gentle smile appeared on his cold face, but whoever he turned to look at would take a step back. He stood there for a moment with his hands behind his back, then walked over to the other general.
"The Sprinkle family was a little excited just now, and it was inevitable that there would be some rudeness. Bai Muqiu's attitude was very gentle, but his eyes were cold, and his tone was calm and slow: "I just made everyone a little stimulated, but it's okay, so don't be so nervous, what the Sprinkle family asks you, it's best to answer what, don't play tricks." So, how many people did your General Xue take with him, and in which direction did he leave, and how many hours did he walk?"
The asked tooth general hesitated, looked left and right, "Subordinate... The subordinates are not very clear ..........."
"Kill him!"
Bai Muqiu smiled gently, walked up to the other person, only to hear Jin Jiu laughing wildly behind him, the sledgehammer roared away, and with a bang, smashed the tooth into the stomach. Liang Yuanzhui was catching people everywhere in the Hejian army, and at this time, he threw a tooth general and a lieutenant to the ground with a tooth in his hand.
"Yo, there are a few little heads here. Bai Muqiu smiled and glanced at the person in front of him, "I'll let you go first." After speaking, the pawn who was almost questioned immediately rolled his eyes and fainted in fright.
Bai Muqiu walked in front of the two generals and the captain, showed Bai Sensen's teeth, and looked left and right, "Who comes first?" Is the high-grade coming first, or the low-grade coming first?"
The tooth will grit its teeth, "Eunuch....you killed me...... Brothers!... Lao Tzu will not let go ......"
Before this person finished speaking, he was slashed to death by Bai Muqiu, and the body was quickly kicked aside by Jin Jiu, leaving the captain trembling, already frightened to the crotch of his pants, nodding desperately.
Bai Muqiu was still smiling, and stretched out his hand to tidy up his leather armor, "This is a good soldier, and it is time for His Majesty to share his worries when he eats the meal rewarded by His Majesty, come, tell the Sprinkle family well, when will your General Xue leave, and how many soldiers and horses will you take in which direction?"
The captain's face turned pale, and he trembled: "Back to my father-in-law, the villain came back from tidying up the horse shed, and saw soldiers and horses assembled in the middle of the night, and thought that General Xue ..... Xue thief had gone to rob the camp, but I didn't expect him to leave." After a cursory look at it last night, there were probably more than 10,000 people, all of whom were combatable soldiers. ”
"Do you know which way they're going?"
The lieutenant shook his head and hurriedly replied, "This... I don't really know about this little one. ”
"Who else knows?" Bai Muqiu looked around and saw that no one had spoken, and felt that he couldn't ask anything, so he got on his horse and returned to the big tent of the Chinese army and reported the matter to Zhao Ji.
After hearing this, the three veterans rushed to offer advice in front of the little emperor, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is impossible for the Xue thief to go east and west, because these two roads are not passable, go south, unless he goes crazy to attack Tokyo, so the only way for the Xue thief to go north to Liao, because it is the nearest and the only way to save his life." ”
Zhao Ji couldn't make up his mind, and looked at Bai Muqiu beside him, "Xiao Ningzi, what do you say?"
Bai Muqiu nodded and said: "What the three veterans said is not unreasonable, so please ask Your Majesty to issue an edict, platoon light cavalry to the Daimyo's Mansion, and let the Wusheng Army surround this rebel army." The slave maid took Jin Jiu and Liang Yuanchui to lead two thousand cavalry to pursue behind, and sent the head of the traitor to His Majesty's steps. ”
"Okay, just Xiao Ningzi. Zhao Ji yawned and got up, and said to the other three soldiers and horses: "You three gather the Hejian army, how to deal with it, you will do it." I continued to hurry, and I was very tired, so I went to Xiangzhou to have a good rest, and it was decided. ”
After explaining the matter, Zhao Ji hurriedly went to Xiangzhou City with Gao Xuannian with great interest, as for what to do, Bai Muqiu didn't have to guess to know a thing or two. So he called Jin Jiu to inform Liang Yuantui to integrate the cavalry, and he and Jin Jiu went to the northern foothills of the mountain to chase alone, and it was obviously not appropriate for the cavalry to take the mountain stream path, so they took the Jingdong North Road and went in the direction of the Daimyo's Mansion.
The mountains in the north are steep and steep, Bai Muqiu and Jin Jiu traveled for almost twenty miles, and still did not find any traces left by the rebel army, but according to the number of the other party, the configuration of the Xiang army, two-thirds of them were infantry troops, even if they marched in the middle of the night, it was impossible to run too far.
At this time, the sun is setting in the west, and the birds in the forest begin to return to their nests.
Jin Jiu walked all the way, and he was already hungry, and shouted complainingly: "Father-in-law, why don't we find a shop to make do with it first, even if people can stand it, the horse needs to eat some forage." ”
Bai Muqiu looked around, except for a mountain road, there were wild cliffs everywhere, and the people watching the poor mountains were a little frightened, plus he himself was indeed hungry, so he said: "In this case, let's go further and see if there are any shops here, but let's be careful, don't go to the black shop." ”
Jin Jiu patted his chest and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, don't worry, even if it's a black shop, I don't let Jin Jiu go." ”
The two of them took advantage of the fact that there was still a little afterlight, along the mountain road to a hillside, not far down the slope to see a wild shop, the white edge of the blue fan capitalized a wine word, Jin Jiu laughed happily, rushed down the horse, and shouted from afar: "Shopkeeper, cook a few catties of beef for me, and then two catties of good wine." ”
Then he took the horse aside, and sat down at a table and chair with a big grin. At this time, Bai Muqiu also came over, tied the horses, and then sat opposite Jin Jiu, and glanced at the hotel, a woman in her twenties came over with a large piece of cooked meat and placed it on their table.
"Oh, how did the two distinguished guests come to this poor and remote mountain, but fortunately they met our grandson's store here. "That woman is average-looking, but she has a bold charm.
Poor Mountains...... The surname is Sun ....... is not it....Bai Muqiu's heart suddenly burst, could it be the two of them?
PS: It's fine tomorrow, and there will be time for more tomorrow.
