The first thousand one hundred and forty-one chapters
But even if it was delayed for a while, Ru Yong would not think there was any problem. He believed that the soldiers guarding the city gate would help them stop Zuo Zhuang and his party. But he never expected that when he came here,
He actually saw corpses all over the ground, including two of his subordinates.
"They are so brave, they even dare to kill the officers and soldiers?" When he came to the city gate and saw the result, Ru Yong said with eyes spitting fire.
But at the same time, Ru Yong was really scared. He originally thought that Zuo Zhuang and others were just knights who saw injustice on the road, but now that he saw that they dared to kill even officers and soldiers, he knew that the people he met this time would not
It's simple. His intuition told him that it would be good to end this matter. After all, they had already left, right?
But Ru Yong wanted to retreat, but others didn't know it. At the city gate, an idle man who was watching the fun and trying to flatter him stood up at the right time, pointed to the north and said: "Boss Ru, those murderers are
Escaped from there."
The laid-back man was originally a lazy person. He once envied those who followed Ru Yong and thought about joining them one day. Unfortunately, he had no skills and never found a suitable opportunity. Now he finally has someone who can
Of course I don’t want to miss the opportunity to perform.
"Chase them. We must avenge those who killed us. Otherwise, how will we be able to gain a foothold in the city in the future?" After the idle man pointed the finger, the other people he brought also shouted as if they were filled with righteous indignation.
Whether these so-called ruffians or fake knight-errants, they have always been people who watch the excitement and are not afraid of big troubles. And in many cases, they also have one thing in common, that is, losing the enemy rather than losing the battle. In many cases, face is often very important.
Today, their face has been trampled on by others. If they don't retaliate, they will be looked down upon. This is something they cannot accept.
When the crowd shouted, Rutong became a little nervous.
He didn't want to continue chasing him, but everyone said that if he backed down now, wouldn't he be looked down upon by others?
Forget it, just keep chasing him for the sake of face. At worst, he will retreat after catching up for a while and just make a show of it. Besides, there are more than 400 people behind him. Even if everyone runs into each other, with their own number
If you have the advantage, the opponent will just run away.
As if he suddenly felt confident again, Ru Yong nodded and said: "Okay, let's chase. We want to avenge our dead brothers. We want to make those murderers pay the price, come on!"
Ruyong drove his horse forward, and under his leadership, there were more than 400 people behind him, including 30 horsemen who followed him. The others all walked on their legs, but they had no intention of lagging behind. After all, they were at the gate of the city.
Here, many people are still looking at them? If they withdraw at this time, wouldn't they be regarded as bears?
In this way, more than 400 people chased out without losing a single person. The team had a large number of people and seemed a bit vigorous, which gave people the feeling of a huge battle.
"Miss, I'm fine." Shui Qin's situation improved a lot at this moment. She knew that Tang Chuyao came here early in the morning to find someone. Although she was still a little uncomfortable, she didn't want to delay the young lady's important event.
"Okay, let's just slow down." Tang Chuyao really didn't want to let Tang Ao and others go, and she was becoming more and more curious about these people.
In this way, after Tang Ao left and Ru Yong chased after him, Tang Chuyao took Shuiqin, and the two of them rode horses and slowly rushed in the direction in which he left.
After Tang Ao and his party were able to get out of Pucheng, they gathered a few more people. The number of the Imperial Guards reached about two hundred at one time. Most of the Han generals had not yet arrived, but they all knew what His Majesty had done.
The direction is approaching now.
The cavalry team of more than two hundred people looked quite large from a distance. At least on the official road, it had formed a large formation. When people saw them from a distance, they would immediately move away and give them the road.
Go first.
But Zuo is just a cavalry team of about two hundred people. Even if it is seen by others, it will not cause others to think too much. This is a chaotic era, but all the rich and powerful people have been raised by the gentry themselves.
The army, even the cavalry, is not too strange.
Tang Ao didn't have to worry about anyone suspecting his identity. But the problem was that when the Han general came to report that someone was chasing him from Pucheng, he had to slow down his pace.
Based on the idea of passing by, even if the cavalry shows off a little, there will be no problem. Even if there is any problem, when others want to target them, they will have already left the original boundary with the footwork of their horses.
But now there are people following him, which is different. These people are like clinging tails. If they are not dealt with, they will eventually become a trouble.
"Everyone, stop and let's settle the matter behind us." Tang Ao thought for a while and decided to cut off the tail that was following him first. Although this would delay a little time, if this matter is not solved, who will
Do you know what will happen next?
Solve one thing when you can, never procrastinate, and concentrate on handling things, because in that case, small problems may become big problems. This is one of Tang Ao's habits in dealing with things.
Tang Ao gave the order to stop the army, and the other guards were all gearing up.
Just now, Zuo Zhuang and the other three had a great time, but they didn't catch anything. Now they finally had the opportunity to show off their skills, and of course no one wanted to miss it.
With two hundred "little tigers" in his possession, Tang Ao set up his stance on the side of the official road, waiting for the arrival of the so-called "pursuers".
He didn't wait long, and a group of people came running to the official road at the rear. They were none other than Ru Yong and his party of more than 400 people.
Ru Yong, who had never been in the army and did not know how to send scouts to inquire about the military situation, only focused on rushing with his men. He had even thought about retreating once he could not see anyone after chasing for a while. This was an explanation for everyone.
, at least let everyone know that they are not cowards.
But he never expected that the person they were chasing would not leave, and even put up a posture to wait for his own wishes. This made him regretful. Ru Yong's face was getting closer and closer to the Han generals.
It became ugly.
Especially when he noticed that there were more than 200 cavalry on the opposite side, his expression became even more ugly. In the past, only Zuo Zhuang and the five of them made a fuss about them. Now that there are more than 200 people, how can it be done by himself?
Can it be tidied up?
Not only Ru Yong, but the other people accompanying him also looked very ugly. The so-called intelligence they had received before showed that there were only five people on the other side. Considering that there were more than 400 of them, they would fight one of eighty, even if they couldn't win.
Aren't you going to tire yourself out?
But now, when they saw that there were not five opponents, but more than two hundred people, they were all stunned. Which grandson gave this information, it must be too inaccurate.
After the opponent's strength was completely beyond imagination, Ru Yong and the others involuntarily slowed down their pace, and they all stopped when they were still three miles away, forming a confrontation.
It was not a confrontation, because Ru Yong and his party had no intention of setting up a formation at all. They just stood there panting, looking forward with somewhat frightened eyes. Especially since most people were
They came here from running. They were already exhausted and their physical strength was severely reduced. If they were asked to fight with others at this time, they might not be able to exert even half of their usual strength. How could they fight with others like this?
It can be said that when they saw that their opponents were so numerous and were still cavalry, many people's legs began to tremble.
Speaking of which, they are just bullying some old and weak people in the city. Most of the time, they bully some young people. It seems that they are showing off their power, but in fact, their abilities are mediocre. If they are really allowed to fight one-on-one with young people,
If you take action, not everyone may have the courage.
It would be better now, let them face two hundred well-trained cavalry. How can they have the slightest desire to fight?
If he hadn't known that the opponents were all cavalry and were fast enough, they wouldn't have been able to escape. I'm afraid they would have all escaped by now.
Everyone below was extremely nervous, and Ru Yong's situation was not much better. He was riding a war horse, but he couldn't be the first to escape, otherwise, he would really have no place for him in Pucheng in the future.
.
The most important thing for those who come out to fool around is face. At this moment, he had to pretend to be calm and said, "Don't be afraid, everyone, they only have half the number of us. As long as we stand together, we are still confident that we can win."
The three words "win" were not spoken loudly, and people far away might not be able to hear them clearly. This shows how lacking Ru Yong's confidence was at this moment.
These words were spoken, but they did not play a role in stabilizing the morale of the military, or everyone did not listen at all, or even if they heard these words, most people probably did not believe them.
But no matter whether everyone heard it or not, and what thoughts they had, they could not stop the two hundred Han generals from approaching. When the distance was still far away, they picked up their strong bows one by one and started shooting arrows.
Although we are dealing with a mob this time, everyone is 100% confident of victory. But it is of course the best to achieve zero casualties. The purpose of using bows and arrows first is to break the enemy's fighting spirit and demoralize them, so that they can reach where the war horses are, and the enemy is already there.
The purpose of being defeated and unable to fight back.
Every guard is carefully selected and is a valuable talent. They must not be wasted on dealing with a few rabble.
