The Golden Age Chapter 720: One bow and three arrows
Qian Guiting fled all the way under the protection of a dozen cavalry, escaping dozens of miles in one breath.
I don't know if it is because of the chaos on the battlefield or because of the inability to catch up, there is no chaser behind him.
Young Master Qian was exhausted like never before. He swayed on his horse. The despair that went deep into his bones made him black, and he almost fell off the horse. Fortunately, someone on the side yelled: "Commander, commander!"
Qian returned to the court to recover, immediately panicked, looked back, and said anxiously: "Here is the chase?"
"The chasing soldiers did not come." The man was also very embarrassed: "Just where are we going next?"
"Naturally, I am going back to Suzhou City." Qian Guiting said immediately.
Although the Suzhou Battalion was still fighting hard, it was almost destined to be annihilated. The Qian family’s strongest soldiers and horses were destroyed in one go. Of course, the next situation would be very unfavorable to the Qian family.
But after all, there are thousands of people in Suzhou City, and the Qian family still controls Suzhou City. There is money and food in the city. As long as you return to the city and stay behind closed doors, there is still a glimmer of life.
"But our direction has deviated from Suzhou City."
Qian Guiting reacted, and fled in embarrassment. He didn't know which direction he was heading. He fled tens of miles in a hurry, only to find that he had gone in the wrong direction. It should be heading northeast. But this All the way is to the northwest.
Qian Guiting can only turn to the northeast.
I rushed for more than 20 miles, the sky was already dark, and when I walked to the edge of a soil slope, Qian Guiting stopped the horse, because there was a lot of piles on the road not far ahead, I don’t know why. The big stone withered branches, the horse can't pass.
"Damn, God is making trouble for Lao Tzu." Qian Guiting's heart feels angry. This is the only way to go to Suzhou City. When I came before, the road was very smooth and I didn't know who was there. There are piles of boulders and dead branches blocking the way.
"Move away." Qian Guiting ordered.
A dozen cavalry all got off their horses and moved hard to move rocks.
Qian Guiting only felt dry and dry, wanted to drink water, but found that when he fled, there was no water bag beside him, and his heart was even more annoyed. He couldn't help but look around. In the darkness, I found that the surroundings were surprisingly quiet. For some reason, an ominous premonition struck my heart.
"Hurry up!" Qian Guiting wanted to fly back to Suzhou City immediately. Seeing that the road hadn't been cleaned, he urged loudly.
As soon as the words fell, I heard a scream, and saw a soldier who was carrying a stone turned over and fell to the ground. The other cavalry had not yet reacted. There was a "swish swish" sound, and a shower of arrows fell from the slope. When the attack came, half of the cavalry fell to the ground with arrows in the blink of an eye. The remaining cavalry drew their swords and slashed.
There is an ambush!
Qian Guiting wants to cry without tears.
Isn't Suzhou part of the Queen Mother's Club? Isn’t the Qian family the largest family in Suzhou?
How come it is now full of enemies.
Finally escaped here, but I still lie in an ambush.
Under the night, they rushed up from behind the soil **** together. Under the moonlight, the horse and the horse were united, holding the bow in their right hand, and then a group of dark shadows rushed up with the ride from behind the breakthrough. As many as forty or fifty people.
Most of the dozen or so cavalrymen were killed and injured, only four or five of them were holding big swords and looked up at the ambush on the **** with horror.
At this moment, Qian Guiting didn't even have the thought of running away, his hands and feet were cold.
He suddenly felt that from the moment Suzhou Camp left Suzhou City, he seemed to have fallen into a bottomless abyss.
The left army, who was originally a friendly army, became an enemy. The most critical moment was when Yuan Changling, whom he relied on the most, was not by his side. If Yuan Changling did not go to the appointment, maybe Suzhou
Qian Guanghan, who was asleep leaning on the chair, suddenly yelled "Ah" and woke up from the nightmare.
He opened his eyes, the light was on in the room, and the lone light was dim. He raised his hand and touched his forehead. It was full of cold sweat.
Someone rushed in soon outside the door. It was Suzhou who had gone to Qian’s family to drive the guard calmly. Seeing that Qian Guanghan’s face was ugly, he stepped forward and asked cautiously: "Old lady, what's the matter with you?"
"Nothing." Qian Guanghan sighed: "I had a nightmare."
"Is the old lady worried about the son?"
Qian Guanghan just made a gesture and told Wei Tairan to sit down without answering immediately. He reached out and picked up the teacup on the table. There was no tea in the cup. Wei Tairan hurriedly picked up the teapot and filled the cup with tea. "Don’t worry too much, the old lady. Although the son has no experience in leading soldiers, the few generals under him are not general, plus Mr. Yuan’s advice to preside over the overall situation, there will definitely be no problem."
"The old man had a nightmare." Qian Guanghan sighed: "Ting'er was beheaded by Linghuxuan. He looked at me before he died, his eyes...!" With a wry smile, he shook his head.
Wei Tairan sat down and said: "Day and night, dreams, Linghuxuan dominates Taihu Lake. For many years, he has become a thorn in our eyes. The old lady was jealous of him, and this nightmare." Smiling and said: "My grandfather, looking at Suzhou, there is no soldier and horse that can fight against the Suzhou battalion. The Taihu Pirates are just a group of water bandits and they are vulnerable when they landed. The son has five thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, and the left and right armies add up to tens of thousands. The crowd, nearly 20,000 horses attacked a county town without any effort."
"The old man is only worried that the left and right armies will be unreliable." Qian Guanghan's eyes are deep. Although he is old, his eyes are still shining: "The two soldiers and horses have a constant gap between each other, the right army Although we reached an agreement with us and obeyed our dispatch, the Zuo army may not be willing to let us drive it."
"Even if only the right army obeys the dispatch, the son has tens of thousands of people in his hands." Wei Tairan comforted: "Even if the left army does not obey the dispatch order, after all, it is still a soldier of the Queen Mother Association, attacking Shuning City, and the left army. Even if you don’t work hard, you will not fail to help contain the Taihu Pirates."
Qian Guanghan nodded slightly: "I hope so." Asked: "Are there no letters from other companies?"
"Not yet." Wei Tairan frowned: "It seems that they will not act rashly unless She Yue is caught."
Qian Guanghan sneered: "They think they have no handle in our hands, and we can't prove that they also took refuge in the Queen Mother's Club, so they watch the fire from across the bank. If Suzhou really loses, Xiahou will spare them?" /
"The old lady don't have to be impatient." Wei Tairan said softly: "According to the day, the reinforcements sent by the court will take a few days to enter the Jiangnan area. Before that, the son must have broken the city. Under the banner of Musk Moon, other families will naturally seduce the city."
"Tai Ran, how about the defense in the city?"
Qian Guanghan took a sip of tea.
"Song Jiande sent additional manpower to each gate in the city." Wei Tairan said hurriedly: "There are two or three hundred guards at each gate. There are soldiers patrolling the city day and night to ensure the order of the city. In the past two days, the prefect of Liang. Recruit young and brave soldiers in the city, promised favorable military pay, and thousands of people joined in. Now there are thousands of people in the city."
Qian Guanghan said indifferently: "They are all mobs who see money openly. They have really gone on the battlefield and won't make any difference."
"That's natural." Wei Tairan smiled: "However, it is very useful to strengthen the defense force of Suzhou City and maintain the order in the city. When Tang Jun is repelled, the training will be strengthened when the time comes. A combatable soldier."
At this moment, I heard rushing footsteps outside. Soon I saw the prefect of Suzhou, Liang Jiangyuan, almost rushing in, his face pale, he entered the house, he was already kneeling on the ground. , Out of breath: "Old.....Grandma, big.....The big thing is not good.....!"
