Chapter 786 Determination

To hunt down Li Yunchong and Zhao Mancheng, it was naturally impossible for Tieniu and his team to be the only ones. Large-scale troops were scattered in all directions.

It is no small miracle that Zhao Mancheng can escape here.

At the critical moment.

A team of eleven spies came here. Three of them were detectives. When they saw this, they didn't think much about it.

The three of them took off the horse's war bow almost at the same time, took out the arrows from the quiver, bent the bow and nocked the arrow in one go, and shot it at Zhao Mancheng.

Tan Ma's archery skills are naturally not bad.

Three arrows enveloped Zhao Mancheng. Zhao Mancheng was wearing armor, so he was not afraid at first. However, he was injured in more than a dozen places, and the wounds never healed and became suppurative.

Any more flesh injuries would be dangerous.

After making a decision, Zhao Mancheng withdrew his silver gun, bent down on his horse and dodged three arrows. He reined in the horse, turned its head and galloped away towards the Yalu River.

"Good luck to you."

"withdraw troops."

Zhao Mancheng said.

Zhao Mancheng's soldiers received the order, but they rushed forward to kill, and then fought and retreated. The crowd gathered around Zhao Mancheng and came to the shore.

Zhao Mancheng abandoned his horse and got on the boat. The others ignored the armor on their bodies and splashed into the water. The strong ones swam by themselves, while the weak ones grabbed the boat and followed.

Fortunately, the weather is hot now and the river is warm. Otherwise, they would not be able to cross the Yalu River if they were wearing armor.

Tieniu escaped from death, exhaled a long breath, and then broke out in cold sweat. This is one thing to have consciousness.

Whether you want to die or not is another matter.

He is a dignified man, young and in his prime, and he either wants to die or not.

"Hurry up and chase." Tieniu reacted quickly. He didn't even have time to pick up the horse tree that fell on the ground. He led the soldiers to the shore, but watched helplessly as the small boat Zhao Mancheng was riding had already crossed the ocean.

"Swish swish."

Soldiers with bows and arrows were busy shooting arrows at the boat. However, the wind in the river was strong, blowing away the fog and deflecting the arrows.

Zhao Mancheng stood behind the boat, looking at the shore. He faced the arrows that fell near the boat, his expression unmoving. After a while, he shouted: "People on the shore listen."

"I know that this time Goguryeo offended Wu Nian very cruelly. With his temper, he must have the intention to devour Goguryeo."

"I have benefited a lot from this expedition to Liaodong."

"He has the ambition to regain Liaodong and protect the territory and the people. I also have the ambition to defend the land and serve the country. He dared to cross the Yalu River and set foot on the land of Goguryeo. I will definitely let him die in Goguryeo."

Zhao Mancheng's voice was loud and clear, and his words cut through the air and passed through the wind, clearly reaching the ears of Tieniu and others.

Everyone's expression changed, and anger filled their chests.

Tieniu was furious and shouted: "The defeated general dares to be arrogant and arrogant. When my general prepares his army and horses, it will be easy to wipe out Goguryeo. Then he will pull out the corpses of the previous Goguryeo kings and whip them."

Zhao Mancheng did not answer. He just stood with his hands behind his hands and sneered. Then he bent down and entered the cabin.

But his body was in so much pain. He had tried his best in the previous battle, but now he was at the end of his strength and was really about to die.

"Quickly, take off my armor and help me heal my wounds." Zhao Mancheng sat down, sweating profusely and his face was purple, and called to his soldiers.

shore.

Tieniu watched Zhao Mancheng slowly reach the other side by boat. He sighed and said, "Although I am very happy to have saved my life, I have to let the tiger go back to the mountain."

"No. I cursed him to die of illness on the road."

Tieniu cursed and then said hello: "Brothers, clean up and find a village to rest. Let's go home."

"Yes." The soldiers responded loudly, then briefly treated the seriously injured soldiers and looked for fishing villages along the river.

...........

It's noon.

Outside Yangwu City, the grain planted by Wu Nian and his soldiers gradually matured. Countless people worked hard in the fields, sweating profusely.

Suddenly, a group of about a thousand soldiers appeared in the east and slowly marched towards the city. Many of the soldiers had blood stains on their armor and jackets, as if they had experienced a bloody battle.

They hold their heads high, their eyes sharp, and their morale is extremely strong.

The flags with the character "Wu" and the character "Zhang" were surrounded by troops in the middle. Under the banners, Wu Nian, Zhang Sheng and a few other generals and cavalry rode with the army.

The people working in the fields on both sides of the road stood up one after another when they saw the team, and then bowed deeply towards the road, showing respect.

Soldiers who have fought hundreds of battles have returned from driving away the barbarians.

The people love it.

The army arrived at the city gate. Cheng Yulian led some officials to stand under the city gate and greeted Wu Nian with excitement.

Although there were signs when Wu Nian broke through the prison. Although he withdrew his troops from Goguryeo, he was looking forward to a great victory for his side.

But when he learned the good news, he was still so excited that he couldn't control himself. He worshiped Wu Nianruo as a god.

Magnificent. Assist the general of the Han Dynasty.

There is only one person through the ages.

"General." After seeing Wu Nian, Cheng Yulian led everyone to bend down and salute with clasped fists.

After Wu Nian saw it, he rode forward alone, turned over and dismounted, helped Cheng Yulian up, and said, "No courtesy." Then, he noticed two familiar faces beside Cheng Yulian, and nodded gently towards them.

"Let's talk in the city." Wu Nian said again, got on his horse, entered the city with everyone, and sat down in the county government hall.

Wu Nian sat in the main seat, looked at the two familiar faces, and said, "Zhang Yong, Cai Ping. Did you bring supplies?"

"Report to the general. We have only brought some manpower. We will first recruit strong men to establish two garrison houses in Guangyang. The supplies, food and grass are still in the rear. We can reach Guangyang in one or two months."

The two officials clasped their hands and replied.

"Yes." Wu young man nodded lightly, showing a look of satisfaction. As expected of Liu Zhixing, he acted really fast.

Establish two garrison houses as soon as possible, dedicated to defense. Then he can free up his hands to launch an attack.

"Sir Cheng, the autumn harvest is coming soon. You should also organize manpower and prepare for taxation. Although Guangyang is a mountainous area, it can also produce a lot of food."

Wu Nian turned around and said to Cheng Yulian.

"Yes." Cheng Yulian responded with a serious expression, but soon smiled and said: "General, there is news from the front. The Meng Yuan people withdrew their troops from the three cities of Guangyang. They did not have time to massacre the cities, so they only set them on fire.

Some food, grass and supplies."

Wu Nian immediately beamed with joy and said repeatedly: "Okay. As long as everything is fine. I was afraid that the Meng Yuan people would massacre the city before leaving."

This time.

It was truly a complete victory. They defeated Goguryeo's 50,000 soldiers and drove away the Mongolians. There were almost no casualties among the people.

Congratulations, congratulations.

"Send people to the north. Since the Meng Yuan people have left, let Huang Hu, Long Qie, and Zhao Yanting leave a thousand households to guard the city. They will return to Yangwucheng with their own soldiers."

"I want to have a celebration party."
