368 [Night Battle]

"Tiger City? I think they should just change the name to Turtle City."

On a gentle slope only about twenty miles away from Hucheng, more than thirty Xiwu Rangers were riding slowly. The leader, Xiao Qi, held a grass stem in his mouth and laughed with disdain. The companions around him shouted:

A knowing laugh.

The moonlight is misty, and the sky is full of clear light shining on the Gaoyang Plain.

Zhang Qingbai seemed to have no interest in concealing his strategic intentions. The Xiaoguo Battalion, which was responsible for patrolling the battlefield, was divided into dozens of small teams and tightly controlled from Lulongzhai to Hucheng, as if waiting for the Hucheng garrison to leave the city to fight.

Of course, he did not wait blindly. He took advantage of Ning Zhong's irresistible opportunity and decisively defeated the defenders of the Guping camp, easily erasing the shadow left in the hearts of the soldiers by the battle at Jiming Village.

In addition to monitoring the movements of the garrison in Hucheng, the duties of these teams are also to eliminate Liang Guo's rangers as much as possible.

Before this war started, the Gaoyang Plain spanning thousands of miles was the battlefield for the scouts of the two countries, and people died almost every day. However, at that time, the Liang Kingdom Rangers relied on the unique and important geographical location of Hucheng.

The shame of daring to set foot on the Gaoyang Plain was a back and forth battle with the Wu people.

Naturally, this was regarded as a great shame by the Xiwu Rangers. For example, the Xiaoqi named Gu Changfeng in front of him tried his best to kill several Liang soldiers, and led more than 30 of his men to swim very boldly.

We walked more than 20 miles south of Hucheng.

It was a pity that after wandering around for more than ten days and finding nothing, he uttered that sarcastic sentence full of unwillingness and anger.

"It seems that Liang Ren is really scared out of his wits," said a person next to him.

Gu Changfeng sneered and said: "You should have heard that there are a hundred thousand troops stationed in the city. If they just cower in front of us and dare not send out a single soldier, how can Liang Guo be undefeated in this battle?"

Everyone became more and more disdainful. From their height, it was difficult to see clearly the mystery of this battle. They just took it for granted that the troops stationed in Hucheng were cowards. They never thought that if the Liang troops in the city were really so unbearable, why would the Western Wu court send them?

Two of the "Four Generals" spent countless sums of money to organize an army of 300,000 men.

Gu Changfeng rode his horse forward, his expression suddenly changed, and he looked at the grass a few feet away to the left.

He silently made a gesture to the people around him and continued to taunt: "Liang Guo's army has been destroyed a long time ago. In the battle of Lulongzhai, our commander only used a little force and they were defeated. The gap is too big."

Big. If the officials in the court were not careful, the commander-in-chief would have conquered the entire Lingzhou."

There seemed to be nothing unusual about the thirty or so riders, but they inadvertently approached the bush.

Gu Changfeng was at the front, and when he was still more than ten feet away from the grass, he suddenly burst into flames and shouted angrily: "Get out of here!"

At this moment, the grass suddenly shook open, and a figure shot out, running towards the south.

Under the bright moonlight, Gu Changfeng immediately recognized that this person was wearing Liang Guo's standard leather armor. He smiled instead of being angry and said to his companions: "We actually caught a fish that slipped through the net. Brothers, let's

We can finally eat meat."

Everyone laughed, watching the unlucky guy from the Liang Kingdom galloping like the wind, but they were not in a hurry. They deliberately let the opponent run half a mile before riding their horses to catch up.

There are very few martial arts masters in this world who can compete with horses in terms of foot power, at least they will not appear here. Otherwise, the opponent can easily kill them and not flee in such embarrassment. Especially on extremely flat terrain like the Gaoyang Plain.

, the horse's speed can be maximized, and there is no need to worry about potholes that may trap the horse's hooves.

A group of people shouted loudly, and they all sounded like very kind people. For example, asking the other party to stop and surrender would save them from death, or that as long as they told the information about Liang Jun, they could get a house in Wu Jingcheng, and so on.

speech.

After about half a stick of incense had passed, the man's speed slowed down significantly, but the pursuers behind him were still calm and leisurely.

He glanced back, then gritted his teeth and rushed into a sparse forest to the southeast.

Gu Yi

Gu Changfeng laughed and said, "He doesn't think this kind of forest can stop us, does he?"

He pulled out his sword and said excitedly: "Kill him to death, don't waste any more time."

"yes!"

Without hesitation, everyone rushed into the forest on horseback and clearly saw the man more than ten feet away in front. The trees here were widely spaced and would not hinder the horse's footsteps at all. The distance between the two sides was quickly shortened.

Within five feet.

Gu Changfeng's ears suddenly moved.

Immediately afterwards, his expression changed slightly, and at the critical moment, he suddenly tightened the reins, raised the front of his mount high, and raised his two front hooves in the air.

A crisp sound of a string sounded not far away, and the arrow passed a foot in front of Gu Changfeng's face. If he hadn't been able to sense danger, the arrow would have shot straight into his neck.

Although he was lucky enough to escape, his companions were not so lucky. A long arrow passed in front of him, and then hit the young soldier on his left in the waist.

These people seemed careless and ignorant of the overall situation before, but now that they were selected as scouts by Zhang Qingbai, their actual combat capabilities are definitely not weak.

More than thirty riders dismounted almost at the same time. Using the horses as cover, Gu Changfeng glanced around and said solemnly: "Go and deal with him on the tree about forty steps to the right!"

Even though six people rushed in quickly with weapons in hand, although they knew that the person staying in the tree was probably a sharp archer, these people were extremely courageous. With constant steering and the cover of the trees, they approached the place Gu Changfeng mentioned at high speed.

position.

At the same time, the unlucky guy who had been teased by them stopped in the distance, turned around and leaned against the tree trunk, looking at them contentedly.

Gu Changfeng had excellent eyesight and could see the other person's face clearly.

He was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, and his face looked a bit immature. He had obviously not experienced any real battlefield experience, but from the indifferent expression on his face and the sneer at the corner of his mouth, we could see that this kind of person

He is not naturally afraid of death, so he dares to deliberately hide in the grass to seduce them.

Gu Changfeng was just eager to perform meritorious deeds, not a fool. Of course he understood that the other party could not be ambushed by just two people. There was no telling how many murderous intentions were hidden in the seemingly sparse woods.

No matter what, he can't turn around and run away, otherwise he will definitely become the biggest laughing stock in the Wu army.

"kill!"

He yelled quickly and sternly, and then led his companions to rush towards the young man.

The battle broke out so suddenly and sharply, but the first person to fall was not the young man, nor anyone around Gu Changfeng.

The six people who rushed toward the archer on the tree on the other side were extremely fast. In a few seconds, they were close to the tree. Just when the desire to kill in their hearts was rising, the earth trembled suddenly around them.
