Chapter 397: siege

Views:

In Baiyun Room, it was like demolishing a house. Any place where someone might be hiding was broken open if it couldn't be opened. Many walls were broken open.

Soon the interior of the gold-selling cave was in tatters.

"Step aside!"

An angry shout came from the street, the sergeant blocking the street was pushed away, and Hao Yunsheng limped over accompanied by his retinue.

Facing the King of the Western Courtyard, the sergeants were in a dilemma because they had not received military orders. This was His Majesty the Emperor's younger brother. They did not know whether to stop him or not, and they did not dare to offend him easily.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Hao Yunsheng's face under the firelight was dark and gloomy, and there was unconcealable rage in his eyes.

"My lord, you are wronged!"

"Your Majesty makes the decision for us!"

Seeing the big patron coming, a fan who was kneeling on the ground suddenly got up, pushed away the guarding sergeant, and knelt in the middle aisle to block the way and cry out for injustice.

With this sound, several fans climbed out of the kneeling queue and blocked the road together to cry out for injustice.

The other Yingying Yanyans suddenly burst into tears and responded to the fans' cries of injustice. They all turned around and knelt towards Hao Yunsheng, and the streets were full of cries.

The men kneeling on the other side looked at each other secretly, but they were quiet. Some people even exchanged glances with each other, ready to watch the excitement.

Looking at the group of people kneeling in front of him, Hao Yunsheng glanced around with cold eyes and shouted angrily: "It's a legal business, who gives you the power to act rashly? Do you still have the law in your eyes? Let Huyan Wuhen come to see me! "

As soon as he finished speaking, clusters of archers suddenly appeared from the windows on the streets on both sides.

There was a sudden sound of bow strings swishing and breaking, and arrows rained down suddenly.

Hao Yunsheng was startled, and the retinue mages behind him stepped forward and cast spells to protect him.

However, those arrows only came towards Hao Yunsheng, but they did not hit Hao Yunsheng. Instead, the people kneeling in front of Hao Yunsheng screamed.

"ah… "

A dozen fans who had just come out crying and complaining fell to the ground amidst the shrill screams. Each one of them was shot like a hedgehog and instantly fell into a pool of blood.

After a burst of bows and a burst of screams, the scene fell into a dead silence. The Yingying Yanyans who had been crying in agreement just now were all trembling, and they felt a little scared out of their wits. No one dared to shout anymore.

The men kneeling on the other side were so frightened that their heads shrank. Each of them looked ugly and felt as if they were out of their minds. They no longer wanted to watch the excitement, and began to worry about whether the Knight Cavalry Army would go on a killing spree.

Hao Yunsheng was truly frightened. For a moment, he even mistakenly thought that someone was going to take the opportunity to kill him.

A figure suddenly appeared in the fire-lit aisle in front of him. Hao Yunsheng thought it was his dazzling illusion. When the person walked over slowly, his pupils shrank suddenly when he saw who it was.

Cha Hu suddenly appeared and walked over. He stopped across the group of corpses on the ground and glanced at his broken leg. "The majestic prince actually appeared in public to stand up for a brothel. It doesn't look good. It’s also ridiculous!”

Hao Yunsheng waved his sleeves and said angrily: "We are arrogantly launching an army in the capital. Do you want to rebel?"

Cha Hu: "Don't blame me randomly. There are reasons for mobilizing the army. The prince has no right to interfere in military affairs. Interfering with military affairs without authorization is a capital offense. Please leave quickly."

Hao Yunsheng: "Let Huyan Wuhen come to see this king!"

Zha Hu held his hands on his abdomen and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the general has an order. Anyone who dares to obstruct military affairs will be killed!" As he spoke, he looked coldly at the retinue mages around Hao Yunsheng, his eyebrows gradually raised.

As soon as these words were spoken, a group of archers from the upstairs windows on both sides nocked their arrows again and turned their swords and guns to aim at Hao Yunsheng.

After Hao Yunsheng's retinue mage looked at Cha Hu, he seemed to feel a little guilty and whispered something in Hao Yunsheng's ear.

In the end, Hao Yunsheng flicked his sleeves and turned away with an ugly expression on his face.

The reason why the children of the royal family like to fight for power is sometimes not just because of power, but because people under power are too realistic. Without power, there is no dignity. For example, Hao Yunsheng left in front of him with shame and anger. Being humiliated in public doesn't feel good.

jingle!

A bell rang, and this time even Yuan Gang heard it clearly.

There was a faint ringing of a bell in front of him. Su Zhao raised it, but found nothing unusual and thought it was an illusion.

The two men galloping under the starry sky stopped their horses urgently, looked at each other, jumped off their mounts, and headed towards the location of the bell to search.

Not long after, the two found a bell on a small plant.

The bell was nothing, the key was the silk thread attached to the bell. Yuan Gang quickly traced the thread and found the broken end of the thread.

Su Zhao immediately released the Moon Butterfly and searched for the broken end of the silk thread. Soon he pulled up another broken silk thread in the grass on the other side and followed it. After searching for hundreds of feet, he still couldn't find it. The end.

She didn't dare to waste too long, and came back with the silk thread. The two of them led the way together, looked at their horses, and then looked back at the direction they came from.

Obviously, the thread was broken when the two horses passed by, thus triggering the bell.

This shows that the ringing that Su Zhao heard before was not wrong, but because the location of the broken wire was at different distances from the location of the bell, some could be heard clearly while others could not.

The two of them didn't know how many threads they had tripped and broken along the way. Not to mention that they couldn't see it at night, even in the daytime, who would have noticed that such a thin thread hidden in the grass was broken by a horse's hoof

Yuan Gang quickly realized that the grassland was vast and it was not easy to find people. This was most likely a military method used by the Xiaoqi Army to find targets on the grassland. It might be interfered by other animals and people, but the Xiaoqi Army definitely had a set of screening methods. s method.

"Our general whereabouts should have been discovered by the Xiaoqi Army!" Yuan Gang looked solemn.

The reason is simple. The person who wants to capture them cannot aimlessly arrange this thing everywhere in the vast grassland. No matter how simple the arrangement is, it is too much.

Su Zhao: "How are you sure it's the military? Is it possible that it was arranged by someone else?"

Yuan Gang looked around and said: "This thing seems simple, but it cannot be done by a small number of people, nor can it be done by your monks no matter how high your cultivation level is. To play an early warning role, you must have a complete set of systems that can be operated on a large scale." OK, this must be a military early warning method, others do not have such manpower and organizational capabilities."

Su Zhao nodded thoughtfully and understood why he was definitely the Xiaoqijun. It was naturally because of the Huyan family, but he couldn't help but look at Yuan Gang a few more times.

"Put away the moon butterfly, change your route, let's go!" Yuan Gang greeted.

The two men immediately ran towards the war horse, turned over, turned their mounts and galloped away in the other direction.

"No wonder you were able to hide it from Hu Yan Wuhen's eyes. Even I almost mistakenly thought you were from the military. You really worked hard to get close to the Hu Yan family!" Su Zhao, who was riding side by side, couldn't help but sigh.

Not only because of what happened just now, in order to escape pursuit along the way, she had long noticed that Yuan Gang seemed to have a considerable understanding of the military's tactics.

Yuan Gang did not explain.

After about a stick of incense, the faces of the two men who were galloping under the night changed slightly. They both looked back and faintly heard the sound of a lot of horse hoofbeats.

The thunderous sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. The two of them rushed up a hillside and looked back. They saw a long black shadow chasing them under the moonlight, and the shadow of a moon butterfly.

With so many cavalry, it was difficult not to believe that they were from the Valiant Cavalry.

Yuan Gang quickly pointed in the direction and said: "You go over there. After you go to Qingshan County, tell the situation to the master. The master will naturally distinguish between right and wrong and arrange you well. He will not treat you badly!"

Su Zhao was anxious, "I'm not leaving. If I want to leave, let's go together."

Yuan Gang: "You leave first and find a way to contact Mr. Dao. If Mr. Tao takes action, it is possible to rescue me. Their target is me. If you are with me, no one can leave!"

Su Zhao refused, "I won't leave!"

In her eyes, Yuan Gang is just an ordinary person. She can still help and protect him, but she can't accept leaving Yuan Gang and running away alone.

After such a delay, the two of them were unable to leave even if they wanted to. The horsemen and horses chasing behind them were very skilled in horseback riding, which was beyond the comparison of the two. They caught up with them in a short while, with an astonishing momentum that swept across the vast land.

The cavalry group suddenly changed its formation, divided into two groups, and formed a 'V'-shaped flanking attack.

A team of hundreds of people rushed out at high speed. Under the night, it seemed that only the horses could be seen galloping and no people could be seen. Hundreds of people were all clinging to the horses' backs, and they could also ignite rockets and bowstrings at such a fast pursuit speed. There was a sudden sound, and a piece of fire shot from one side.

Although they didn't hit either of them, they were forced to change directions quickly, using rockets to press them all the way.

Not long after, Yuan Gang realized that the other party was not chasing them, but forcing them to a certain direction.

By the time he realized it, it was already too late. A few moon butterflies could be seen fluttering in front of him under the night sky, and below the moon butterflies was a long black shadow, like a wall.

It was difficult for Yuan Gang and Su Zhao not to go in that direction, so they were flanked and rushed over.

The black wall suddenly lit up, a large number of torches were raised, and a dense line of cavalry blocked the front.

Among the blocking cavalry, a large number of people strung their bows and pointed their bows and arrows at this side. A rain of arrows would come at any time.

The chasing cavalry gradually slowed down and finally stopped.

Yuan Gang and Su Zhao were coerced by this momentum, and their escape rhythm was involuntarily controlled.

When they were blocked and stopped, they looked around and found that they were surrounded by a large army, with cavalry holding torches everywhere.

The cavalry commander waved his hand, the bow and arrows he opened were slowly bowed, and the arrows he was aiming at were lowered.

To the left and right of the general, there were several retinue mages, who were obviously monks from the three major sects based on their attire.

Yuan Gang raised his sword, Su Zhao drew his sword, and both of them were alert to their surroundings.

However, the cavalry besieging them had no intention of attacking or letting them go. They remained silent, as if they just wanted to encircle them, and seemed to be waiting for something.

The trapped two people did not dare to act rashly, as they could not figure out the depth of the opponent's accompanying mage. If they only had cavalry, they would still dare to charge.

Not long after, the rumble of hoofbeats was heard in the distance, and hundreds of horses galloped over under the night.
