"Everyone, now is not the time to ask for help. Everyone, please retreat! Wu Youzhi is a man who is determined to retaliate. If his pursuers catch up, we will not be so lucky."
The man at the stick looked around and said hurriedly.
"Brothers, we will see you later!"
Zhou Cang was not a mother-in-law. After being reminded by his brothers at the sticky pole, he clasped his fists at everyone and got on his horse.
These horses were hidden outside the city beforehand.
Originally there was one horse per person, but now there are half of them and no one is riding them.
"You each hold an extra horse! You can't leave any trace for them!"
Zhou Cang gave a deep command to the guards, and then looked at the Ma Lie people behind him: "See you later!"
"Better go, brother! We will be halfway there to help you!"
Ma Lie also clasped his fists at everyone and said in a deep voice.
Zhou Cang looked at everyone and said no more in the end.
All that was left was a look of reluctance.
Follow him and lead people away.
There also started to be noisy near the city gate.
"Brothers, they are here for our innocence. Tonight, we will help them stop the enemy and sacrifice our lives. Are you willing?"
Ma Lie looked at the people behind him and said in a deep voice.
"willing!"
"We do!"
"…"
After hearing Ma Lie's words, everyone responded excitedly.
"Okay! Everyone, let's go to the official road in front and stop them! We can delay them as long as we can!"
Ma Lie gave the order and set off with everyone.
Several people at the sticky pole looked at each other and ran forward.
"What we can do is help them delay as much as possible, but! We can't make any losses, understand!"
The leader glanced at everyone, and then said in a deep voice: "Let's go! What we will do later is to kill their masters!"
"clear!"
"yes!"
"..."
Everyone took the order one after another and followed closely.
When they desperately blocked Wu Youzhi's men.
Zhou Cang's soldiers and horses have already fled.
He didn't know how long the people behind them would hold Wu Youzhi's men back, but at this moment, the only thing they could do was to escape.
Try to escape.
When they passed by the ambush site they had set up before.
People who have been waiting here for a long time have already discovered them.
"Brother Zhou! How is the situation?"
One of them stood up and asked hurriedly.
"Successful. There are Ma Lie and others blocking us from behind. Let's retreat quickly!"
Zhou Cang didn't have time to say more. After leaving a sentence, he reminded several people: "Hurry! Follow us!"
More than a dozen people heard the words and were unambiguous.
They all got on their horses and drove away.
About half an hour after their group left here, Wu Youzhi, a young man in white clothes, led his troops and passed by.
He brought so many soldiers and horses that there was no room for them on the narrow path.
They occupied all the flatter roads.
"boom!"
"call out!"
"..."
And the trap they had laid before was triggered by them.
"ah……"
"Ouch..."
Immediately afterwards, there were screams.
"stop!"
When the young man in white saw this, he did not dare to move forward anymore and hurriedly ordered everyone to stop.
"Sir, there is an ambush among us!"
A guard commander reported in a hurry.
"Take the men back! Pursue from the official road. You guys, follow me and continue the pursuit. Don't leave this road!"
The young man in white looked at the open space around him silently, gritted his teeth and continued: "They can't run far!"
"yes!"
"As you command!"
"..."
Upon hearing this, everyone respectfully accepted the order and then set off in a hurry.
The young man in white hurriedly chased Zhou Cang and the others in the direction they fled.
That is at this time.
Zhou Cang's team had already arrived in the mountains and forests not far from Quyin County.
"Brother Zhou, are all our horses going to be released like this?"
One of the guards looked at Zhou Cang with some reluctance and asked.
"Let them go west. No one will think it was us. If they go out in that direction, it will be the Western Region!"
Zhou Cang looked solemn and continued: "If you don't give up, you will be bitten to death by them!"
"Yes, Brother Zhou!"
After hearing Zhou Cang's words, the man sighed helplessly.
"Okay, brothers, let's go back to the city! Everyone, be careful and walk along the stream later! After we get down the mountain, we will go up the trail."
Zhou Cang looked at the people behind him and then said: "Injured brothers must not come out to the creek. Don't leave any clues for the enemy to pursue!"
"clear!"
"As you command!"
A group of guards took orders one after another, and then followed Zhou Cang and headed straight for the county seat.
The county town at this time was also very lively.
Qu Yin is also a timid person who is afraid of death.
His fear of death is different from that of Wu Youzhi, who would hunt down and hire experts.
Invisibly, this is also a means of attack.
Qu Yin, on the other hand, was defensive.
Facing the encirclement of Wang Lin's troops, he just let his people defend.
Protect his life.
He watched helplessly as Wang Li's guards finally escaped.
This night.
Wang Lin was sitting in his inn and sent troops to assassinate two county magistrates here.
No one can guess his actions.
At this time, Wang Lin was sitting in his wing, waiting for good news.
He had already drank two pots of tea on his table.
"Your Majesty, Brother Zhou and the others are back!"
After he drank another cup of tea, a guard hurried forward to report.
"Okay! Okay! Come in quickly!"
When Wang Lin heard this, he stood up quickly and rushed out the door.
When he arrived at the door, the men and horses led by Zhou Cang had already arrived in front of his door.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work! Please come inside quickly!" Wang Lin saw everyone coming back and hurriedly gave in and invited everyone into the room to talk in detail.
"Your Majesty, our mission was a success!"
As soon as Zhou Cang entered the room, he lowered his voice and reported the final result of the night.
"Okay! Okay! Thank you for your hard work, brothers! I will give you a lot of rewards when you go back!"
Wang Lin praised him repeatedly and said excitedly.
"Your Highness, this operation is all the result of Brother Ma and Niangan Department. They fell into a trap in order to help us block Wu Youzhi's troops..."
Zhou Cang looked at Wang Lin, sighed and said: "Tomorrow, we will pass the letter to Feige to see their situation..."
"Ma Lie and the others also participated in the operation?"
Wang Lin frowned slightly when he heard this.
He obviously underestimated Wu Youzhi's strength.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Wu Youzhi has strong soldiers and horses. He only protects the courtyard with a cost of no less than two hundred, and there are many masters. In order to help us, Ma Lie's brothers have all sent out."
Zhou Cang nodded and responded in a deep voice.
"I understand. I was negligent and treated Wu Youzhi as Qu Yin!"
When Wang Lin heard this, he gritted his teeth and sighed, then said, "Are the other brothers okay?"
