MTL - I [Imperial] Am Not This Kind of Man-Chapter 177 Robbed
Encouraged, the army was invigorated, and everyone was united.
Qin Nuo returned to the camp.
As soon as he stepped into the door, he walked.
Pei Tuo didn't know when he woke up, Jingliang's eyes were looking to this side.
"Noisy to you?" Qin Nuo entered the account, put the Ocarina on the table, and asked with a smile.
"No, the emperor played very well, and the promise afterwards was touching." Pei Tuo stared at the flute and whispered.
In a state of serious injury, his attitude softened unexpectedly. Qin Nuoduo glanced at him.
Pei Tuoxiang didn't look at himself and felt that his emperor was weak and useless. Later, because of the rumor, he had a bigger opinion on himself. This Qin Nuo has always known.
I thought he would disagree. Qin Nuo touched his chin and approached him, "It always makes me feel insincere to listen to. I won't ridicule me to win people's hearts, right?"
On weekdays, it is impossible for him to make such a joke with Pei Tuo. The two are really not close to that share, but at this moment, they are in a camp and lying on a bed ... uh ... definitely not this For reasons, Qin Nuo feels that the relationship is really close.
Or a brief contact after reunion, he felt that Pei Tuo has grown a lot as a person.
Pei Tuo laughed: "Although the minister is dull, the true intentions of people can still be understood. The emperor has such determination and really admires the minister."
He paused, and then said, "Before, it was rude to be a courtier, and he was disrespectful to the emperor."
Qin Nuo was surprised: "It's not like your style to say such things."
Pei Tuo was silent for a moment before he said, "He was right. I was too naive before. When looking at things in this world, I always pretend to be superior and self-righteous."
Qin Nuo didn't ask who he was, he knew.
"This world is not that simple. It is either black or white. Nor can it be done with the courage and blood."
"Previously, the courtier was rude, but the emperor never minded it. The emperor alone deserves my admiration. At least, the courtier cannot treat someone who despises me with such a bland attitude."
"Not to mention my life is saved by the emperor now."
Qin Nuo really has to look at it differently, to this guy.
The bonfire was beating and dying, sketching the outline of Pei Tuoying's features. For the first time, Qin Nuo felt that the appearance of this guy was similar to that of Pei Yue.
"You don't need to say such a word of life-saving. Don't forget, you also saved my life on the way to Nanyingfang before."
When the first assassination in his life was encountered, Pei Tuo passing by rescued him.
Although the assassination was also because he blocked the disaster for Pei Yu, he didn't have to be too grateful. But then I thought about it again, Pei Ye was assassinated that time. It was an assassin from the Qin Ze school. He killed Ge Xianfei himself ...
It's complicated whether Pei Ye is hurting himself or Pei Ye is hurting himself.
Qin Nuoyi lay on the bed, he had recovered the men's clothing, and during the day, he also ordered Yan Chang to help separate the hay under the bed for a distance.
But Pei Tuo still seemed a little embarrassed. He couldn't help but move to the side, it seemed to be involved in the wound, grinning his teeth.
Qin Nuo said indignantly: "Don't move, otherwise the wound will crack."
Pei Tuo made a sound and stopped moving.
After a while, Qin Nuo turned his head and said, "Pei Tuo ..."
"Ok?"
"Don't be a courtier, call me son."
"……Got it."
The two young men lay side by side in the tent, listening to the sound of blizzards whistling outside, and the occasional sound of horseshoes.
Even in the blizzard weather, everyone was not slack, Yan Chang, Yao Xingxu, and Chen Chang'an each led a small group of soldiers and took turns to rest on patrol outside.
Qin Nuo could not fall asleep for a long time.
Neither he nor Pei Tuo mentioned the previous awkward confession.
Of course, in Qin Nuo's eyes, this was purely an oolong joke, and it was not taken for granted. Consciously said it would be okay to drive. But looking at Pei Tuo's response just now, it seems that he still has some feelings. The broken-hearted teenager is really a headache. Yan Chang also said that this guy is nervous ...
After two days of interrogation, Pei Tuo was finally able to get up, and everyone immediately started to rush.
They can't stay in one place for a long time. In fact, if it was not for Pei Tuo's serious injuries, they would never spend three days in this camp, risking to be found by the chase.
Zema galloped north. This was the line agreed after three days of repeated discussions.
The eastward intention must have been pierced by the soldiers of Beishuo, and the southward one has to face a lot of customs and ambush, simply northward, maybe there is still a vitality, at least there is enough buffer time.
The crowd ran northward for three days, and Blizzard covered the trail. Choosing a cave or a camp abandoned by the herdsmen of Beishuo in the middle to stay overnight, can be considered assured.
According to Yan Chang's estimation, they should have arrived near Panluo City in Beishuo. This is a medium-sized city in the south of Beishuo.
Since the founding of Beishu, Beishuo gradually began to imitate the Central Plains to build cities and gather the people. Many cities have been built, large and small. In the spring and summer season, herders graze around, and in the cold winter, most of them return to live in the city to avoid the snowstorm.
In the cold winter months, they insisted on grazing and hunting outside, and most of them were ordinary people on the ground floor. They did not accumulate enough food and forage to survive the winter.
Close to the city, more people scattered outside, Qin Nuo and his party became more careful.
Yan Chang arranged to explore horses to explore pedestrians in a wider area, and even proposed a day and night trip.
On the morning of that day, Tan Ma rushed down from the cliff and brought news.
A group of cavalrymen in Beishuo appeared in the forest lane in front. The number was not large. Fifty people got on and off.
Chen Chang'an suggested: "Let's turn around and take a break for a while. I'll take someone off and clean up the traces on the ground."
"Wait, there are only fifty people in the other party. Instead of avoiding them, it's better to kill them. How about a vote?" Yan Chang was more active.
"But I don't know that they have no other team in the future? And if one or two are evacuated, wouldn't it be a revealing sign?"
"It's never going to be a quick battle, just a big vote." Yan Chang let his eyes shine.
No wonder they are full of self-confidence. Of the dozens of people here today, all are elite. No matter how strong the cavalry of Beishuo, it is impossible to casually rank a top team.
Qin Nuo glanced at everyone's expression, and most of them looked eagerly.
Why is it so urgent? Of course, it is because people are short-minded!
After these days of flight, the people in the team can still support the horses, but the horses are worn out. Now there are already several people who need to ride together. Continued, the loss of horsepower is even more dramatic, and there is an urgent need for supplementary vitality.
And food and medicines are too much.
In front of this group of fifty Beishuo cavalry appearing in the wilderness, in the eyes of these hungry wolves, it is almost fifty walking magpies.
Qin Nuo finally said, "Be prepared to take action and capture some soldiers. You can also ask about the previous situation and Beishuo's current political affairs."
He has been concerned about the final situation of the battle outside Hengdao City.
The emperor spoke, and Chen Changan could only agree. Everyone quickly moved to the discussion of tactics.
It's not very scientific to kill directly. In case one or two get rid of it, the end result is endless, and the best way to kill it all is to choose wisdom.
****
In the vast expanse of snow, tall coniferous pine trees are densely covered.
A team of cavalry was walking on the road. The snow under his feet was no longer on the horse's knees. As he walked around, from time to time a puff of snow poured down from the trees.
The leader complained from time to time, "This hell, we have to come out and deliver letters."
"It's all the big princess Zhou who is a child of Rush. I heard that several cities in the south have been searched and no people have been seen."
"The greedy wolf camp is really a waste, and a princess of Didi can also chase it. Thanks to their noses that are higher than the sky, they say that Beishuo is the best, and they are **** shit!"
"Ha, according to me, wouldn't it be those of Li Qianjun's white captive dog thieves who saw the princess beauties and gave them to the place ... hehe ... after that, it ’s not easy to make a difference, just claim it was lost?"
The topic turned in an inferior direction. After talking for a while, a man said with emotion, "I heard that the princess was beautiful and I don't know who could catch it? It's a pity that it should have been the character of the queen ..."
"Don't say anymore, these treacherous and shameless dog thief southerners should all be killed, treacherous and vicious. Obviously, our emperor was going to greet his relatives, and was assassinated by these evil thieves. One day I rushed into the gate and took them All the princesses, queens and queens of the country, are brought to the army. "
"But," a veteran's voice went down. "How did I hear that Your Majesty, the Emperor, was suddenly given by a thunder of nine days ..."
"Yes, I also heard that there is no such master in the Zhou Dynasty, who can stab your Majesty. His Majesty has been invincible in the army since he was a teenager."
"Stop it! General Murong has ordered, and there will be no further discussions on this matter. Do you want to die?"
The team was silent for a while, and finally the veteran changed the subject with a grin: "It will be Panluo City soon. I heard that there are many Hu Ji in Panluo City, and then we can leave for two days."
"Also remember Hu Ji, hurry up the road, haven't you seen the sky overcast again? Don't delay too long outside the night."
A group of people speeded up their horses, but suddenly a footsteps came in front of them. Soon, a young boy appeared in front of him with his tattered camp.
He seemed to hear the sound of a horse's hoof from behind, and quickly retreated to the side of the road.
When a group of Beishuo soldiers passed by, they held their horses and asked, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
The teenager has a handsome face, but he looks like he is 13 or 14 years old, and his eyes are red. "Adult, the younger is a herdsman near Panluo City. Before the weather was bad, my father and mother said that they would return to the city. They drove most cattle The sheep left, and let me look at the tent and the remaining cattle and sheep first. I did not expect that snow would fall that night, and the remaining cattle and sheep were frozen to death. The villain can only ... "
The teenager's cheeks were red with frost and his shirt was torn. Only the tattered tent on the shoulder was barely worth two copper plates.
It is not uncommon to see Beisuo soldiers of this kind of bottom poor. One of the soldiers asked casually, "Then you are outside these days, have you seen a beautiful woman wearing a Central Plains long dress, and some soldiers?"
There was no hope at all, but it never occurred to him that the teenager showed a reminiscence expression, and then nodded, "It seems I have seen it."
what? The crowd was shocked, and the leading soldier yelled, "When did you meet? Tell me immediately."
The teenager was startled, and Se stepped back and whispered: "Just on the road, there were a few cavalry masters passing by, and there was a young lady wearing a long dress of Jin Chanchan, like a fairy."
"It's just that they run fast and the villain doesn't see much."
A group of Beishuo soldiers exchanged surprises. Did the escape team of Princess Da Zhou really choose to go northward, so that the great credit will fall on them in a blink of an eye?
The soldiers who had pursued before said that the score was clear. There were no more people around the princess, and all of them were wounded. With fifty of them, they can definitely win.
A group of people quickly rushed in the direction of the teenager.
Crossing a hill, she really saw six or seven horses scattered on the flat ground in front. A dozen cavalry were standing on the periphery. A woman in a long golden dress was in the middle. Although she was far away, she could also see her graceful and noble .
She really is Princess Zhou! And these soldiers wore big week cavalry costumes.
The leading soldiers no longer doubted, and everyone was almost dizzy with this sudden sense of happiness.
Da Zhou soldiers with their eyes narrowed found themselves and pulled out their swords in preparation for combat.
More than a dozen disabled soldiers were defeated, and even the horses were incomplete ... The leading Beishuo soldiers waved with great pride, and everyone couldn't wait to rush out.
The high charge is the best and most powerful of Beishuo cavalry.
However, this aggressive charge was interrupted halfway.
Why is there a pit on the ground? !!
As more than a dozen soldiers fell to the ground and screamed, the soldiers in the rear grabbed the horses urgently, but they could stop wherever they stopped.
Suddenly a group of people followed the dumplings and rolled in the snow.
Looking at the flat snow surface, the bottom of the fracture valley turned out to be several meters deep.
Just as Aihong was everywhere, more than a dozen cavalry rushed out on the left and right. Slashed to those who had escaped from the disaster. The soldiers who had been around the princess also rushed forward and killed the unlucky eggs who were trapped in the snow pit and tried to climb out.
A small encounter, which ended with a big victory on Monday, killed more than 30 opponents and captured more than a dozen people at the price of three minor injuries.
Chen Chang'an took people to collect the loot, more than thirty horses were taken out intact, and the remaining injured were killed on the spot, and then pushed into the snow pit and buried.
There were also dead bodies of Beishuo soldiers buried in this deep pit.
Qin Nuo stood next to him, watching Yao Xingxu crying and changing his clothes, and then stuffed the gorgeous women's bead with gold beads into the bag.
The dangerous job of putting on women's clothing as a bait cannot of course be done by the emperor himself. Eventually, under the coercion of everyone's intimidation, Yao Xingxu wore this dress with a sad face.
Recalling Yao Xingxu's expression before, Liang Liangwei was in this position.
After the battle, Yan Chang probed his head from the back, and just lied to the faces of the dolls of Beishuo soldiers with luck. It was not because of deception that succeeded, but that Qin Nuo initially asked him to pretend to be a princess.
Who makes his face look the most showy?
Fortunately, there needs to be someone to lure the Beishuo team into the trap. His baby-face is better suited for this job, and he just managed to escape.
Well, Yao Xingxu's appearance, but remember it, you can laugh at life in North Xinjiang.
In a short period of time, the captive Beishuo cavalry has also been interrogated. Most of them were stubborn and refused to speak. They were cut off with one stab, and only two said some news, but they were not useful. These are ordinary lower soldiers in Beishuo, and it is impossible to know the important news.
However, from the words of a group of captives, everyone could be sure that the previous battle outside Hengdao City did not last long, because Pingxiying successfully returned to the city in response to the Da Zhou soldiers and horses. Beishuo's reinforcements can only look forward to sighing.
It is not suitable to attack the city on snowy days, and Wanli City has collapsed. Now Beishuo's army can only retreat. Yan Chang analyzed the next move and smiled and comforted Qin Nuo. "The emperor doesn't have to worry. If he wants to start fighting again, he has to start the spring snow."
After the beginning of spring, Beishuo's political situation was afraid of changes. After this battle, the royal court of Mushi suffered great damage. The surrounding tribes and affiliated countries have been severely oppressed by the royal court in recent years. When they encounter opportunities, they will inevitably produce other things. Mind.
Regarding the battle in Hanguguan, Qin Nuo temporarily relieved his heart. Although he knew very well that Bei Shuo could not fight on the battlefield, the anger that he was holding could only continue to pursue his "Da Zhou Princess" more vigorously.
The people distributed horses and trophies. They also checked the soldiers' carry-on luggage.
Soon the leading soldiers found a roll of official correspondence with the seal of Beisuo Town State General's House.
The content of the official letter is very simple. It is required that all cities and tribes that received the official letter cooperate with the search soldiers and horses sent by the court to search for the Princess Da Zhou and the remnant soldiers who fled. If there is an arrest, the soldiers at the first level can receive hundreds of gold, and the capture is doubled, and the princess captured by Da Zhou can receive thousands of gold, and immediately seal the title.
The soldiers and horses of the town of Beishuo sent seven or eight teams all the way to the east and north, and to the cities and tribes, they also sent news about the puppets. This is just one of them. They have just passed the two cities in the south, and now they continue north to Panluo City.
"But it's really going to be under the roof." Qin Nuo chuckled.
He looked at the Beishuo prisoners who had been killed, and looked down at the papers that Yan Chang sent to his hands. Following this letter, there is even a brief map. Today is exactly what Qin Nuo desperately needs. My location is only a short distance from Panluo City.
Suddenly, a strange thought appeared in Qin Nuo's mind.
"Would we like to take a trip to Pan Luo?"
Hearing the words of the emperor, Yan Chang was surprised, and his eyes suddenly burst into light: "The son means ..."
"Always staying in the wild and fleeing is not the way. If we continue, we will become savages." Qin Nuo smiled.
This plan is extremely bold, but if you think about it, it seems very feasible.
Pretending to be a messenger of Beishuo, he took a trip to Panluo City. Not only was he able to listen to the news and take a break, but Yan Chang looked back behind him. In fact, Pei Tuo's injuries have not been all right. Supporting the team to advance, he refused to be bitter, but his pale face and blood dripping from the abdomen clearly showed what kind of pain he was enduring.
This is also Qin Nuo's anxiety. Pei Tuo's physical strength cannot support another operation. It's better to take a trip to Panluo City and take a good rest and change the medicine.
The soldiers who were rumored were soldiers and horses of the General House of the State. They had been stationed in Wanli City for a long time and had little contact with Panluo City. In this season, because of heavy snow outside, there was not much communication between the cities in Beishuo. It is unlikely that one's own party will be vulnerable.
Just rest two or three days ...
His team was bold and arrogant young people. The more they thought about it, the more they were tempted. Finally, they made a final decision.
The people moved quickly, took off the leather clothing and armor from the Beishuo soldiers, and then replaced the horses and bags.
Then buried Beishuo soldiers and horses' corpses in a deep pit, covered with mud, sprinkled with snow, and determined that no traces could be exposed before snowfall.
The traces of the battlefield were completely cleaned, and a group of men rode on the steeds and began to advance north.
