Chapter 34 The Royal Family Pursuit Order (1)
Chapter 34: The Royal Family Chasing Order (Part 1)
The reaction of the young man with golden armor was not slow.
Yan Qing raised his arm and spear, as fast as lightning. The flat and sharp spear head tore the air and made a sharp roar, and a faint afterimage appeared.
No shooting technique, no shooting is returned.
The attacks like storm pierced out in an instant, with a series of afterimages followed by aft shadow. The gun seemed fierce and extremely powerful, but the gun left three points of power. This power was connected with the power, and it became faster and faster... When the spear shadows gathered together, a burst sound was generated.
The young man with golden armor was shocked and slashed with sword.
From his earlier reaction, Zheng Yanqing felt that this guy was a young man. But as soon as he came into contact, Yan Qing immediately discovered that the young man's sword contained power and had obviously reached the realm of transformation. The swords and spears intersected, making a crisp sound. The yellow horse under the young man's crotch was regretted by the strength of Yan Qing's spear, and he retreated several steps in a row. The jade hooves did not approach, but raised their heads and neighed for a long time, retreated slightly, and rushed towards the yellow horse again. Yan Qing did not leave any backhand, and the horse spear slanted, drew a shiny arc, and rushed straight towards the golden-armored boy like a silver snake.
After the golden-armored boy exchanged a move with Zheng Yanqing, his arms were slightly numb.
Seeing Yan Qing rushing over again, he was furious and slapped his horse and danced his sword, fighting with Zheng Yanqing.
If it were normal, Yan Qing might have been entangled with him for a while. But now he does not have the advantage and is in a dangerous place, so he is willing to entangle him. In just two rounds, Yan Qing looked at the side and saw Xiong Kuohai and Kan Ling had led the crowd to kill the enemy.
Xie Ke's pressure was significantly weakened, but he was outnumbered, so he was still at a disadvantage.
The Goguryeo soldiers around him have begun to rush towards Yan Qing. If they cannot fight quickly, Zheng Yanqing and others will be trapped in it.
Yan Qing felt impatient. He narrowed his eyes behind the mask, lifted his spear and broke the golden-armored boy's backwards and kicked off the golden-armored boy's backwards after a knife. He exchanged his horse's spear for his left hand and pulled out the silver whip on his back. He followed the trend. The golden-armored boy's martial arts skills are not bad, but after all, he has too little experience. He has no defense at all about Zheng Yanqing's spear in his spear, and Yan Qing was hitting him on his back. The armor instantly appeared one after another, and the boy sprayed out a mouthful of blood immediately, and the sword flew out of his hand. He lay on the horse and urged the horse to escape.
But how could Zheng Yanqing allow him to leave?
Retract the whip and hang the spear, hold the bow and set the arrow. The red-stemmed white-feathered arrow shot out like a meteor, hitting the young man's heart.
The young man in golden armor screamed and turned over from the horse's back to the ground. The yellow horse still ran away without realizing it. His death caused the Goguryeo soldiers besieging Xie Ke to besiege Xie Ke to besiege. They chirped and shouted loudly, all of them looking panicked.
The Goguryeo general who besieged Xie Ke rushed towards Zheng Yanqing.
Yan Qing was quick and shot out six arrows in a row, shooting two Goguryeo generals to the ground. At the same time, Xiong Kuohai and Xie Ke also joined forces to kill the generals. The hearts of the Goguryeo people were already in chaos... There was still the intention to fight again. Zheng Yanqing rushed into the enemy with his spear with his left hand, with a silver whip with his right hand, and a horse spear with his right hand, and a bow from left to right. Two generals were killed by the horse, and the Goguryeo people could no longer hold on!
A general shouted and drove away.
With one man leading the way, countless people followed suit... Soon, the Goguryeo people were defeated and fled, leaving more than a hundred dead bodies, and the yellow horse that found the owner missing and returned on the same route.
This yellow horse has a majestic skeleton, an extremely majestic horse, and is also a good horse in the BMW.
Zheng Yanqing ordered people to hold it up and gather the scattered horses around him, totaling thirteen war horses.
Then, he urged Ma to come to Xie Ke, "Brother Xie, you are not in Nanshui, why are you hunted down by the Goguryeo people here?"
When Xie Ke heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Yan Qing, Nanshui Camp is empty..."
"ah?"
"When the war was tight at night, I saw that you were not coming back yet, so I took people to pick me up. Before leaving, I handed over the camp to Zheng Xing, but I didn't want to go back, the Nanshui camp was empty. Thousands of soldiers were missing... and the Goguryeo people surrounded me from all directions.
In desperation, I had to lead my troops to break through.
After fighting hard in the middle of the night, I couldn't tell the direction... After the generals from the riot army, my entourage was almost completely injured and injured."
A gloomy look appeared on Xie Ke's face.
His entourage was different from Zheng Yanqing's Tiger Guards, and was mostly composed of clan townsmen. In other words, on this night, his clan group was almost dead... After Xie Ke finished speaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Zheng Xing could not bear the great responsibility and retreated without authorization, wasting a great opportunity. If I see him again in the future, I will definitely take the head of his neck to comfort the spirit of my brothers in heaven!"
The words are celebrating, and there is no way to respond.
"Young Master, let's withdraw first."
Kan Ling stepped forward and said, "It's really dangerous here. There are many thieves passing by. If you are discovered, you'll be afraid that there will be another hard battle."
So, Zheng Yanqing brought Xie Ke and more than ten remaining entourages to the valley and met with Mai Zizhong and others.
When everyone heard that Nanshui was indeed empty, everyone's faces turned pale.
Since the Nanshui Camp is gone, it means that the way back to Haipu is blocked by the Goguryeo people. And more than 200 defeated soldiers on our side, one of them is trapped and it is difficult to break through the enemy's defense line. After the way back is blocked, I am afraid that I will face the Goguryeo people and a large-scale clearance... Although Yan Qing is calm and capable, he has no idea when facing this situation.
"So, we can't go back to Haipu?" Zheng Hongyi swallowed and his tone was awkward.
Xie Ke sat down on a stone, Shen Guang took out a bandage from his body and bandaged his wound. He had no fatal injuries on his body, but he would inevitably have some minor injuries when he fought hard in the middle of the night. Although Xie Ke had many entourages under his command, he lacked the assistance of generals like Xiong Kuohai Kan Ling Shen Guang, so Zheng Yanqing was not injured all night, but Xie Ke was covered in scars and a bit miserable.
He said in a deep voice: "When I broke through the Nanshui River, I heard that the general had fled to Haipu.
However, the thief chief Gao Yuan ordered Mo Lizhi, and the eastern master Yuan Taizuo was the commander, leading his troops to pursue the general... His clan brother Gao Jianwu, and he was against Lu Gao Jianwu, led his troops to eliminate the scattered soldiers and defeated soldiers around Pyongyang. Going south, although there were General Zhou in charge of the troops, Goguryeo was very powerful, and it was very difficult to join the army... Unless General Zhou in charge of the battle against General Zhou in defeat of Yuan Taizuo; if it stayed, it was afraid that Gao Jianwu would find us, and it would be very dangerous at that time. Yan Qing, at this time, you must make a decision as soon as possible."
Zheng Yanqing's age is the youngest among the crowd.
But in everyone's eyes, it is a horse's head.
Although Maizizhong was not convinced, he also knew that this was not the time to fight for power and profit.
Yan Qing hesitated for a moment, "Brother Xie, do you think General Zhou can't beat Yuan Taizuo?"
Without waiting for Xie Ke to answer, Mai Zizhong spoke first: "When the general crossed the sea, he had a total of 70,000 troops. He brought nearly 60,000 people to Pyongyang, and only 10,000 people remained in Haipu, mostly crossbowmen and sailors, and there was no cooperation between cavalry. I thought it was very difficult to win."
Yan Qing said: "How many soldiers and horses do the Goguryeo people have?"
Xie Ke thought for a while, "Last night I had captured a prisoner, and I learned from him that Yuan Taizuo had at least 60,000 to 70,000 people; Gao Jianwu had to have 30,000 to 40,000 troops. The general was defeated and retreated to Haipu, and even if he brought back some soldiers, there would not be too many.
What Mr. Mai said is not unreasonable.
Under such circumstances, our army was defeated and exhausted; the Goguryeo people won new victories and their morale was strong, so General Zhou was afraid that it would be difficult to get benefits."
Zheng Yanqing thought for a while and suddenly spoke, "Who has a Pyongyang map?"
Mai Zizhong, Xie Ke and others looked at each other.
Before this, there were... But Fang Jing was defeated and ran away overnight. Who would carry the map with him?
Feng Guo was silent all the time, but at this time he spoke: "I have a copy here... but the map we collected temporarily when we set out from Lingnan earlier, and it is not accurate. After logging in to Haipu, my son received the accurate map, and the original map was kept by me."
After saying that, he took out a roll of map from his deer-skin bag that was slanted and handed it to Zheng Yanqing.
Yan Qing took it, spread out the map, glanced at it quickly, and smiled bitterly.
This is probably a hand-drawn map from merchants traveling between Goguryeo and the Central Plains. It is not only inaccurate, but also has blurred and messy markings.
Zheng Yanqing could only distinguish one direction from this map.
There is no marking when it comes to the Doubao Mountains. However, if you have such a map at this time, at least you won’t lose your way anymore!
Yan Qing handed over the map to Shen Guang and asked him to clean up and keep it.
After pondering for a moment, he whispered: "Let's go into the mountain!"
"Enter the mountain?"
Zheng Yanqing said: "Sooner or later, the thieves will be discovered by the thief. Let's go to the mountains first, hide, and send someone to inquire about the news.
Everyone fought all night, but they were afraid they were tired... If they met a thief at this time, it would be a lot of danger.
Gao Jianwu has only 30,000 to 40,000 people in his hands, and it is not that easy to clear the surrounding area of Pyongyang. He must first clear the plains and then go into the mountains to search. We must try to make a time difference, go into the mountains to rest first, and then wait for an opportunity to try to leave."
Now, there seems to be only one way to go!
Zheng Yanqing and others made up their minds and immediately led their troops to take remote paths and escape into the mountains of the city.
Little did he know that when he entered the mountain, he missed the last chance. Yuan Taizuo led his troops to chase him, but on the banks of Shangyuan River, he was ambushed by Zhou Fashang's ambush and returned. However, although Zhou Fashang defeated Yuan Taizuo, he was unable to counterattack again.
So he stationed his troops in Haipu and gathered the remaining defeated generals.
Yuan Taizuo retreated back to the south bank of the south water to build a solid line of defense.
Zhou Fashang and Lai Hu'er waited in Haipu for three days, and collected more than 15,000 defeated soldiers. Among them, there were about 7,000 people who had obtained a chance of escape because Yan Qing burned food and supplies in the Nanshui River. The total number of these defeated soldiers, plus the soldiers in Zhou Fashang's hands, was no more than 30,000. With such troops, it was unlikely that they would turn defeat into victory... Seeing this situation, Lai Hu'er had to order the three armies to board the ship and withdraw their troops to Donglai County.
Dacheng Mountain is not steep and the scenery is easy to see.
However, because the mountains are stretched and hills are dense, it is not easy to find them. After Zheng Yanqing and his party entered the mountain, they only walked on the path of sheep intestines. At about noon, they found a hidden valley, so they rested in the valley.
After a night of fierce battle, Zheng Yanqing was hungry.
I didn't eat anything last night, and I ran around and fought all night. It was fine when I didn't stop. When I stopped, I felt sore all over and my bones seemed to have scattered. Yu Tier found a piece of water and grass in the valley and rested on his own.
Chen Guang brought some people to find some fruits in the mountains.
After Yan Qing ate two unknown fruits, he felt sleepy and leaned against a rock, closing his eyes to rest. The others, the injured bandaged the wound, and the non-injured, simply lay on the ground without moving. Seeing this scene, Mai Zizhong and others were a little worried.
Morale was low to the valley, and it was hungry and cold, and the people and the land were unfamiliar.
How long can we last if this continues?
Everyone was not very sure. However, seeing Zheng Yanqing sleeping soundly, this nervous mood somewhat relieved.
Yan Qing woke up and it was already dark.
The mountain breeze at night was very cool, which made him feel uncomfortable.
In the valley, Xie Ke and others lit several bonfires and slaughtered three injured war horses that were useless. After all, relying solely on wild fruits to satisfy their hunger cannot replenish enough physical strength. During this battle, they need to eat meat. The strong aroma of meat made Zheng Yanqing's index finger move.
"Yan Qing, I woke up... I was hungry."
Xie Ke handed a piece of roasted horse meat to Zheng Yanqing.
There was no seasoning, only a little coarse salt was sprinkled. However, for the hungry Zheng Yanqing, this was undoubtedly a delicacy in the world.
He was not polite either, so he took it and swallowed a piece of it.
With a clear stomach in his stomach, his heart was not so panicked. Zheng Yanqing looked around and found that Mai Zizhong and Feng Guo were missing. He asked strangely: "Where is Mai Fei?"
"Oh, Mr. Mai... Feng Guo is worried about the safety of his son, so Maizi and him went out to find out the news!"
“What’s the situation outside the mountain?”
"It's not very clear yet. Mr. Mai and the others are coming back soon, and you'll know it when you ask."
Xie Ke bit a piece of horse meat and chewed it hard in his mouth.
He asked vaguely: "Yan Qing, what are the good ideas for this situation now?"
One sentence made many people around him feel refreshed...
Zheng Yanqing smiled bitterly in his heart, but his face pretended to be indifferent, "The soldiers come to block the enemy, and the water comes to fill the earth. Can living people still suffocate to death in these days? The most urgent thing is to find out the situation outside the mountain. It would be best if they could contact General Zhou and others, if they could not..."
He looked up and said to Chen Guang, "Get me the map."
Chen Guang quickly spread the map in front of him. Although the drawings were not accurate, the general situation could still be seen clearly.
