Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Six hundred and sixteen mountain discussion

"Going back to your Highness, the slave servant did not find any obvious suspiciousness, but the whole Xingyang was full of weirdness. It stands to reason that when the slave servant arrived in Xingyang, it should be regarded as the time when Xingyang was busy, but... the whole Xingyang was like An empty city, one street, there are few pedestrians, the atmosphere is weird, it is difficult to see the figures of ordinary people, the whole city seems extremely quiet. m..." Mang Chung recalled how Xing Yang felt after he went to Xingyang, and reported truthfully.

"When you arrive in Xingyang, it should be almost sunset. With the rule of people working at sunrise and resting at sunset, is it wrong for people who have been tired for a day to be quiet?" Wei Tuqi did not understand. The relaxed atmosphere just now became a bit nervous.

"It’s at sunset, and the sun rises and the sunset rests regularly. Then when I entered the city, I should have seen many people enter the city, but I didn’t even see one, even if it was collecting firewood. People of China, I haven't seen it. Isn't it strange?" Manchong frowned and replied puzzledly when facing Wei Tuqi.

Wei Tuqi was at a loss for words, he was stunned and then nodded, he understood the curiosity of Mangzhong.

"Who did you see?" This time the cheetah looked at Mang Chung and asked.

"Xingyang County Magistrate Zhang Daan, I showed your Highness’s token. After verifying the authenticity, he did not hesitate to lend the servants two hundred and ten war horses, along with a carriage, and a small In Xingyang County, there are actually two hundred war horses in reserve! Isn’t it surprising? It’s not Zhechong Mansion. Even if it is a Xia Zhechong Mansion, it is not easy to free up two hundred war horses at once. Everything, in Xingyang, looks as if it had been prepared a long time ago." The mang species has a solemn expression, and when he is waiting for the old war horse at the dock today, the expression when staring at the river is the same. .

Bai Chun looked at Li Hong strangely again, Li Hong smiled at her, and then said: "Mang’s words are reasonable. It is rare to be able to be so careful when approaching Luoyang."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Bai Chun and patiently explained: "Xingyang has always been a place to transport grain, or send grain directly to Luoyang by water, or directly by land after winter. When sent to Chang'an, the siltation of the river here has always been the top priority of the Ministry of Industry. During the year, any river can be silted up, but the section from here to Luoyang has always been the Ministry of Industry, Yushitai, and Sinong Temple. , The place under the supervision of the Ministry of Households, even if there is a slight blockage, will be impeached on the court, so at this time, how can there be blockage? And it is three days before we arrived!"

"This... Your Highness, do you mean someone deliberately blocked our waterway?" Bai Chun was startled, and suddenly looked around nervously.

"This is 80% certainty, so if the Mang species went to Xingyang to borrow a mount, he asked him to check it out. Otherwise, send a soldier at will. That Zhang Da'an will be so stubborn if he wants to come, so he ran over. Picking up." Li Hong once again picked up a wooden branch and stirred the flame.

Mankind stared at the tumbling flames from the fire, and said quietly: "Today, the slave servant was waiting for the horse at the dock, and he was always looking at the river. The water was so clear that the bottom of the river could be seen, and it was completely satisfying. The drafts of the several large grain ships staying there. Of course, this is a wharf, and it is impossible to silt up to the wharf. But if according to them, there is a fleet of silt clearing ships five miles ahead. With today’s current speed, when we look down on the river from a battleship, the river can’t be so clear and bottomless. The fish in the water can even rush for food. Obviously there must be weird."

An unknown bird's song sounded in the mountains, and then there was a roar of large animals, and the whole mountain seemed to be fighting.

The flames of the fire were still burning cracklingly, illuminating the faces of five people. The two hundred guards either lived to cook or were sent out by Wei Tuqi and began to patrol around the camp.

"What should I do now?" Bai Chun grabbed Li Hong's arm and asked a little discouraged.

I've already walked here now, and seeing that I'm about to arrive in Luoyang, I'll be able to return to Chang'an. How come such things have happened.

"The soldiers come to block, the water comes to cover the earth, and it is obviously impossible to solve the problem like Yangzhou, but now we are in the light, they are in the dark, even our enemy There is no way to determine who it is, so what we can do is to run into this mountain and guerrilla with them, so that they can't play the advantage of troops in the mountains." Li Hong looked at the feet and said lightly.

Then raised his head and looked at the stars dotted in the night sky. Now he doesn't even carry a carrier pigeon, which makes him unable to communicate with the outside world.

And...well, let alone Costin, I'm afraid he's eating and drinking in the palace of the queen.

So, it has to be said that it was an important negligence of him that made him suddenly fall into a passive position. It became difficult for him to go to Luoyang to rescue soldiers, or to contact places other than Xingyang. Up.

But under the back view at the time, he had no choice. Apart from ordering the Mang species to go to Xingyang to investigate the situation, there was nothing else he could do.

As for the Zheng family of Xingyang, Li Hong didn’t believe they would help him. The five surnames and seven hopes were suppressed by him. Now he was in a state of panic, relying on the secret support of the sixth and Cao Wang, as well as those above the court. The remaining officials recommended by them can stay on their feet, and I am afraid they already hate myself to death.

"Then we can't just sit and wait for death, right?" Bai Chun said with his cheeks in his hands, looking at Huoguang.

In the bright eyes, the fire flickered, and the quiet Bai Chun still had a stunning appearance.

"Remember what I said when we were in Yangzhou? It's better to be silent, Mangkin, Cheetah, when someone starts to attack us tonight, the task of the two of you is to move to Luoyang desperately Rescue..."

"Your Highness..."

"If you don't want me to die, just do what I said." Li Hong looked cold and snorted as he watched them.

"Yes, Your Highness." Mang Chung and the cheetah had to stand up and bow their heads.

"Wei Tuqi."

"The end is here." Wei Tuqi also stood up like a black iron tower, and replied solemnly.

"When someone attacked tonight, I immediately took 200 people to run along the mountains in the direction of Dengfeng, luring the enemy into the deep mountains with you, and then fighting guerrilla warfare. I don’t want you to destroy many of them, but you must Hold them so that they can't get out of the mountain." Li Hong frowned, looked at the far end of the mountain and said.

"Yes, Your Highness!" Wei Tuqi replied in a deep voice.

Then they knelt on the ground with Mangzhong and the cheetah with a puff, and the three said in unison: "What should your Highness do?"

"Movement is worse than quietness. After leading the reinforcements, I will go straight to Xingyang and I will wait for you there." Li Hong's plan is also helpless.

If you knew this would be the case, you should let Bai Chun go back to Chang'an with the Queen of Dalai. In this way, you can even lead these two hundred people to surprise Xingyang County.

But now one is carrying Bai Chun, and the other is that he has lost his initiative, and he has retreated to the mountains passively, unable to hold the initiative anymore.

Some suspicious points have been discovered at the pier, but it is not certain whether they have been intercepted deliberately.

At that time, if the Wuya warship were to make a U-turn and land in a different place, then it might be too late to transfer troops.

But people are not as good as the heavens. The closer they get to Luoyang, not only they, but also their own vigilance, have caused the current consequences.

The three didn't understand what Li Hong meant? Could it be that after he waited for others to lead away the enemy, he could take Miss Bai alone to Xingyang County?

Li Hong didn’t say much about his thoughts. He took his token from Bai Chun and threw it to Mang and Cheetah, and then took one from Mang, which belonged to Shang Shuling’s order. brand.

No one is adding firewood to the fire, and as the fire gradually dims~IndoMTL.com~In the deep mountains and forests, a few beast roars can still be heard.

The guard team of two hundred people did not seize the time to close their eyes and rest their minds at this moment. Instead, with a horizontal knife in their hands, they began to dig some small holes on the way when they came, hoping to stop the enemy. Horse speed.

In the camp, Bai Chun put on a pair of leather armor. This armor was made by Li Hong when she fought in Anxi. Although she never wore it, she was always taken by her side. At this moment it came in handy.

After putting on the armor, her hair was wrapped in the helmet. The tall figure of the whole person was immediately more obvious. Most of her beautiful cheeks were wrapped in the helmet, leaving only a pair of beautiful The eyes blinked like gems in the dark night.

Compared with the usual, the whole person seemed to lose a little bit of indifferent high-coldness, and a more heroic spirit, which appeared clear and decisive.

Li Honghehe lay on the sleeping bunk, hehe smiled and nodded, and threw a horizontal knife he had played with for a long time to Bai Chun: "Is this the knife made for you back then? It's rusty."

With a crisp sound, the washed blade was slowly pulled out of the scabbard by Li Hong. In the tent with only a little fire, it exuded a cool and compelling light, and the sharp blade moved with the blade. That point brings you the firelight shining on the edge of the blade, and it's so beautiful.

With a squeak, the bright horizontal sword was in its sheath, Li Hong looked at it again with satisfaction, and then threw it to Bai Chun, who was a little awkward dressed himself.

Mang species, cheetah, and Wei Tuqi, after digging a few small pits and scattered some rubbish, they began to choose among the two hundred soldiers, one by one, they went back and forth and looked at them. He took two steps back from time to time, looking at the backs of soldiers.
