551, ambush
At this time, Chu Ling and Duan Yun stood on the hillside not far away to watch the melee. After more than ten years of displaced in troubled times, Mr. Duan Yun, a former famous family, finally became a person who was still indifferent to the battlefield. In the fire, a person fell down represents the disappearance of life. Duan Yun's expression was surprisingly calm, and he couldn't help but hear the situation when he just left home.
At that time, Duan Yun was a real young man. Even though he was not a playboy or even hardworking, he was still a young man who knew nothing. He was robbed, deceived, forced to escape with the refugees, and even faced life danger. He also saw the tragic situation of the Apocalypse who struggled to survive under the iron cavalry of the tribe.
If Duan Yun left his family to protect his aunt and two cousins at the beginning, he was indignant for his aunt and two cousins, then later he was really suffering for all the experiences of the Apocalypse people. The powerful can take their families to a safe place, but most ordinary people don’t even have the courage to escape, because the way to escape often represents death. So he completely cut off the years of going home to Jiangnan. If he cannot save the Apocalypse, then let’s sink with him.
If it were a few years ago, Duan Yun would never have imagined that such a day would have happened. But he actually waited, so even though he was just a scholar without any power, Duan Yun was not afraid of the battlefield because he had already prepared.
"You have taken time off all the soldiers in Zijing Pass, aren't you afraid that Tuoba Zan will rush in?" Duan Yun asked.
Chu Ling smiled and said, "If he wants to come in, come in, we have to guard the same place as Zijing Pass."
Duan Yun nodded slightly and said, "Indeed, Zijing Pass and Liangzhou are not really related. And Tuoba Zan is afraid that he has no energy to cause trouble for us now. The one who really needs to be wary of is Su and Mingguang." When talking about Su and Mingguang, Chu Ling couldn't help but frown and said, "Cousin, how much do you know about Su and Mingguang?" The news they received was that Su and Mingguang have been stationed on the border of Liangzhou and remained silent, making people completely unaware of what he was thinking. If Su and Mingguang deliberately neglect to avoid fighting Chu Ling, they would not believe it. Even if the Hulan tribe is powerful and so blatantly teasing the people of the Northern Jin Dynasty is too much. If they really want to deal with the Hulan tribe, even if they can't make any moves, they can only support a few tribes that have a grudge against the Hulan tribe, even if they can't hurt them, they are afraid that Su and Mingguang will be in trouble.
Duan Yun lowered his eyebrows and pondered for a moment, "A very difficult person to deal with. Su He Mingguang took over the power of the Hulan tribe in his early twenties. At that time, the former wolf master of the Hulan tribe had just died, and the Hulan tribe was in a very difficult situation. Su He Jinlian was only a child in his early 10 years old at that time. Su He Mingguang defeated the people who wanted to take the opportunity to seize the territory of the Hulan tribe three times with his own strength. In less than ten years, the Hulan tribe became a strong clan outside the border that could compete with the Leye tribe. Moreover... this person's thinking is sometimes very strange and he always likes to be surprised."
Chu Ling nodded in agreement, "I can see this, so... what do you think he wants to do?"
Duan Yun pondered for a long time, and he kept thinking about this question but had no result. Because he didn't understand very well, what did Su and Mingguang want to do if they didn't help Tuoba Zan to capture Liangzhou as soon as possible, and stayed on the border and remained still and remained on the border?
"Isn't I trying to turn around and attack Runzhou?" Duan Yun frowned.
Chu Ling shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. What's the point of attacking Runzhou at this time?" Even if Su and Mingguang can conquer Runzhou within a period of time, they will face Xinzhou, Cangyun City, Feng Zheng who turned back from Huizhou, and even the Apocalypse Imperial Guard on the other side. The Runzhou section of Lingcang River is not a natural barrier, and the water flow is still stable. In the past, the Apocalypse Imperial Guard did not dare to cross the river instead of really unable to cross the river. Once Linjiang City is in a hurry, the Apocalypse Imperial Guard on the opposite side will inevitably not be able to sit idly by. At that time, Su and Mingguang will only trap themselves in the siege of hundreds of thousands of Apocalypse troops.
Duan Yun nodded, "That's right, but if he doesn't plan to attack Liangzhou and doesn't attack Runzhou, what will he do on the border? He won't want it..." Duan Yun paused suddenly, and Chu Ling suddenly raised his head and eyes. Both of them looked at each other and saw a trace of solemnity in each other's eyes, "What do you mean is Su and Mingguang want to attack Cangyun City?"
Cangyun City is on the corners of Runzhou and Liangzhou, and Su and Mingguang can indeed set out from there and turn to the southwest to attack Cangyun City. And now Cangyun City does not have any troops to guard, but... Duan Yun frowned and said, "Isn't that different from attacking Runzhou?" Yiyang City was surrounded by the enemy.
Chu Ling shook his head and said, "Different, don't forget that Cangyun City resisted the Northern Jin army with its own strength for more than ten years without falling. Once Su and Mingguang really occupied Cangyun City, it would be like a nail wedged behind us. He could come out to cause trouble at any time, but we might not have a way to do it. In addition, Cangyun City has a different meaning to people in the north. Once Cangyun City is taken down, our morale will be greatly damaged."
During the more than ten years when the Apocalypse court was completely inactive, Cangyun City can be said to be the only hope of the Apocalypse people in the North. Even if that hope is so far away that they cannot go, there is still a ray of hope there. This feeling not only exists among the people in the North, but also many Apocalypse people far away in the south of the Yangtze River.
Duan Yun frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "What should we do? We can't distribute troops to stop Su and Mingguang now."
Chu Ling took a deep breath and said, "It's hard to say what Su and Mingguang are planning, let's keep an eye on him... By the way, make the worst plan." His eyes slowly surrendered to the battlefield at the foot of the mountain, and said in a deep voice, "As for here, fight quickly!"
The drum sounded brightly in the valley, and it seemed to be hitting people's hearts.
The battle situation at the foot of the mountain became more and more intense. Seeing this, Huang Jian knew something was wrong, so he cruelly gave up the troops who were still trapped in the battle and rushed out quickly with his people. This scene naturally made Chu Ling, who was condescending, see clearly.
"Princess, Huang Jian is going to run away." Feng Sibei frowned.
Chu Ling smiled at him, reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "Go."
Feng Sibei was overjoyed and immediately bowed his hand and quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests with a pair of people behind him.
"Huang Jian is cunning and has several masters among the bandits who defected to him. Can you let Feng Sibei go alone?" Duan Yun asked. Chu Ling smiled and said, "Sibei's strength is definitely enough. Young people still have to work hard on the battlefield to become successful. If they suffer too much loss, they will naturally understand." Duan Yun looked at her deeply and said, "Why do I think you have never been a young man?"
Chu Ling turned his head, blinked his eyes and said, "Cousin, what are you talking about? I am still very young now."
Duan Yun looked at her speechlessly, and Chu Ling smiled and said, "You know... there is a kind of person in this world who is born smarter than others. People generally call him genius talents."
Duan Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you want to say, you are such a person?"
Chu Ling smiled and said, "Aren't me?"
"..." Even if you really do, it would be a bit too thick to praise yourself.
Feng Sibei led the people to chase Huang Jian's escape, and successfully stopped the people before Huang Jian and others were about to rush out of the valley. Seeing that they were about to escape, a young boy broke out from the sky and blocked the way. Huang Jian was naturally furious and roared at the people around him, "Kill them and rush out!"
Feng Sibei sneered and rushed over with the people around him.
Those who followed Feng Sibei were all elites in the Divine Blessing Army, and the real Divine Blessing Princess's personal guards. Naturally, they would not be afraid of these mobs composed of the Southern Army and bandits, and they ran faster than Feng Sibei.
A middle-aged man met Feng Sibei. The sword in Feng Sibei's hand went over with a neat sword and directly pulled the man off the horse's back. Everyone around immediately discovered that this young general was not simple. At that moment, several people surrounded him. Feng Sibei held the sword in his hand, and was quite invincible. He was unwavering along the way, pressing towards Huang Jian.
Huang Jian sternly said, "Hurry! Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow!"
However, at this time, the Southern Army had already been in chaos. Apart from the guards, there were people around Huang Jian who were rushing around like headless flies, and there were not many archers. Even if someone received the order and shot arrows, it would have no effect on Feng Sibei at all.
Seeing this, Huang Jian quickly turned his head and wanted to change direction. Feng Sibeiye was not in a hurry, and reached out to take off the bow and arrow he hung on the horse's back, started working and shot in the direction of Huang Jian.
A young man passing by him reminded, "General Xiao Feng, the prince's occupies the occupant."
Feng Sibei smiled and said, "I know. Don't worry, I can't shoot him to death."
The feather arrow broke through the air, and the horse of Huang Jian was frightened and began to run forward frantically. Huang Jian, who was jogging on the horse's back, almost took off the reins. Huang Jian could not do so, so he had to lean on the horse's back and hug the horse's neck tightly. Feng Sibei could see clearly from behind, chuckled and lifted the reins, and the horse neighed and chased Huang Jian.
Feng Sibei's war horse is a good horse that can be picked from a hundred miles away. Even in such a vast valley, it seems like a flat river. In a blink of an eye, he caught up with Huang Jian, who was out of the protection of the guards.
Huang Jian was naturally not Feng Sibei's opponent. He fell off the horse's back in less than a few moves and rolled on the ground with a long sword against his neck.
"Give me... I'll spare my life!" Huang Jian shouted quickly, "Young man!"
Feng Sibei sneered, "What young man? Do you think you are a gangster?"
Feng Sibei quickly changed his words and said, "General! General, please spare your life." Feng Sibei's sword pressed against his neck firmly and said coldly, "Get up, don't play tricks. If the princess hadn't said she wanted to live, would you think you could still live until now?"
"Yes! Yes!" Huang Jian quickly got up from the ground, and his extremely obedient and tactful appearance almost made people think that he was not the same person who had talked about in front of Princess Shenyou. Seeing that he cooperated so much, Feng Sibei couldn't help but relax a little, and at the same time he looked a little more contempt for Huang Jian. He had thought this person was so powerful that he made such a big noise, but he didn't expect that he was a timid and incompetent fearless person.
Feng Sibei was about to possess her and catch Huang Jian, but a cold wind came from behind him. He quickly leaned against the horse's back, and two feather arrows were rubbing against his scalp. Even a person like Feng Sibei could not help but feel scared and sweated. Before he could fight back, Huang Jian, who was standing in front of him, suddenly burst out, and a sharp blade in his hand stabbed Feng Sibei's heart without hesitation.
The sword was both fierce, fast and extremely accurate, and headed straight for Feng Sibei's heart. Feng Sibei didn't have time to think about it, and the long sword in his hand rushed forward, and the yellow sword was shocked and opened slanted. He was not discouraged, and stabbed the knife at Feng Sibei's left shoulder.
At the same time, the archer who sneaked into Feng Sibei's attack not far away made another move. Two more arrows were shot at Feng Sibei's body, and the other arrow shot at the war horse under Feng Sibei's seat. Feng Sibei took the sword to block the arrow that was shooting at him, and his left shoulder was cut by a yellow-cut dagger, causing a burst of burning pain.
The war horse suffered a little, jumped and ran forward with Feng Sibei, instantly leaving Huang Jian behind.
Feng Sibei was young and energetic, but suddenly felt such a boring blow. He stood up on the horse's back, grabbed the rope hanging behind the horse and swung it, and put Huang Jian who turned around and ran away from behind. Then he grabbed the bow and arrow, shot two arrows, and dealt with the person hiding in the dark and attacking him.
"Oh, Brother Feng is here to be a lottery." The one who caught up later happened to be a young general who was familiar with Feng Sibei. Seeing Feng Sibei in such a rare and embarrassing look, they couldn't help but tease him. Today their ambush was very successful, and this battle was not difficult. Feng Sibei has always been the title of No. 1 master among the younger generation in the army. Except for Princess Shenyou, he has almost never been convinced. Now he has been injured by Huang Jian, a person who is not even a second-rate. Isn't it a joke?
Feng Sibei snorted lightly and said, "Small injury."
The man smiled and said, "Since you have caught Huang Jian, Brother Feng will go back to see the princess first. Look at the wounds, and leave the rest to the brothers." After that, he turned around and met the enemy who was rushing over, leaving a string of hearty laughter.
