Zhao Mancheng got the answer he wanted and did not embarrass these three people. After the slaughtered chickens and dogs were cooked, Zhao Mancheng divided them with his soldiers.
Although the meat was only cooked, it had no flavor at all and tasted like chewing wax.
But it’s much better than rice.
After Zhao Mancheng and his soldiers ate the meat, they immediately gained strength.
They did not stay in this mountain village for long. They quickly packed up, then took a small road and continued eastward.
About an hour and a half passed. Tie Niucai led hundreds of soldiers and horses to the mountain village.
He first took a look at some of the broken armor left by Zhao Mancheng's soldiers, and then asked about it, and knew that this person must be Zhao Mancheng.
and.
Zhao Mancheng was injured and suffered more than ten wounds.
Tieniu's face showed joy and joy. It was Qilin who fell into Pingyang and was bullied by me, Lao Niu. I decided to kill the unicorn and take the head back to the general.
"Brothers, can you hear me? This is probably Zhao Mancheng. Order all the troops to disperse along the east to hunt down Zhao Mancheng. Tell the people in the villages along the way and ask them to report actively."
Tieniu put his hands on his hips, looked around at the soldiers present, and said loudly.
"Yes." The soldiers responded loudly. immediately. Tieniu got on his horse, picked up the horse's shaft, and galloped down the mountain village, heading east.
The soldiers responsible for delivering orders went to dispatch troops and horses.
This pursuit lasted a day.
at dusk. On the edge of a mountain stream. Tieniu was so hot that he was sweating profusely and looked very embarrassed. He turned over and dismounted, but instead of rushing to wash his face and drink water by the mountain stream, he squatted down and looked at the marks on the ground.
"They rested here for a while."
"Brothers, fill up the water. Work harder and keep chasing me." Tieniu looked gloomy and fell one step behind. But he quickly cheered up, stood up and spoke loudly.
"Yes." Each of Wu Nianjun's soldiers had red eyes and looked haggard and exhausted. However, after listening to the order, they did not complain at all. They took out their sheepskin water bags and filled them with water, then headed eastward with Tieniu. Chase.
They drank water and ate dry food while chasing.
Some soldiers fell behind because of bad food or various reasons.
It's just dawn.
The Yalu River is covered with a thin mist. There are many waterfowl hiding among the water plants on both sides of the bank, making calls from time to time.
A "plop" sound. A big carp jumped out of the water, then fell down, splashing a lot of waves.
Zhao Mancheng led less than a hundred soldiers to the shore. His complexion was very poor, blue and white, and the wounds under his armor had suppurated.
You need to take off your armor to enjoy the cool air, your wounds need to be treated, and you need to rest. But along the way, he had no time to rest.
"General. It's the Yalu River, it's the Yalu River." The soldiers beside Zhao Mancheng shouted, almost crazy with excitement.
"General. We can finally go back."
"General."
Zhao Mancheng's face also showed a hint of joy. He quickly interrupted the soldiers and said in a deep voice: "Quickly find a boat."
This section of the river is relatively narrow. In the past, it would have been easy to swim across it. But with his current physical strength, even with the help of personal soldiers, it would be difficult to swim over.
And his wounds can no longer get wet.
"Yes." The soldiers responded loudly and quickly dispersed to find the boat. But soon, they stopped. I saw an old man wearing a bamboo hat on the other side of the river, standing on the bow of the boat fishing.
The soldiers' eyes lit up. One of them quickly shouted in Goguryeo: "Old man, old man. Please bring the boat over and carry our general across the river. We will reward you heavily."
The old man on the boat hesitated for a moment, then asked his son to turn the boat's bow, and slowly came to the shore with the oars.
"Thank you, old man." After the ship docked, Zhao Mancheng's soldiers were very polite and bowed to the old man, expressing their gratitude.
"General."
Some soldiers helped Zhao Mancheng dismount, and another soldier planned to take off his armor and swim over. At this moment, the sound of troops marching came from behind them.
The expression of Zhao Mancheng's soldier changed slightly, and then he regained his composure.
"Have you finally caught up? It's a pity it's too late. We're about to leave."
"We are going back to Goguryeo. It's a special code. It's not easy. I never want to come to Liaodong in my life."
The soldiers said one after another.
Zhao Mancheng turned to look behind him and saw that there were only about 200 pursuers. The leader was a burly general holding a horse.
With a bright light in his eyes, he said to the people around him: "My sons, although I was injured and defeated, I am not someone that can be bullied by dogs. Follow me and rush into the enemy formation, kill the general, and take the head back to Goguryeo."
"Yes." The soldiers were stunned and fell into a commotion. Then his morale was boosted and he shouted. Some wounded soldiers got on board, and the rest lined up in order.
Zhao Mancheng got on his horse, grasped the zhangba silver gun tightly, raised his head and looked forward, a red cloud appeared on Bai Qing's face.
"Kill!" Zhao Mancheng shouted, raising his gun and galloping forward, heading straight towards the enemy general.
"Kill!!!" The less than a hundred soldiers beside him roared with all their strength, and then launched a charge.
The coming general is Iron Bull.
He chased for two days and two nights before he caught up with Zhao Mancheng. When he saw that Zhao Mancheng was planning to board the ship, his heart suddenly dropped. When he saw Zhao Mancheng returning to the army to fight, he suddenly showed joy.
I am not a rival to everyone.
What's more, Xue Qilin's martial arts is still the strongest among them.
The general wouldn't let me confront him either.
But now Zhao Mancheng is seriously injured and is a sick cat.
Thinking of this, Tieniu's eyes flashed with a sharp look. He raised the horse in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, take this guy's head and present it to the general."
"kill!!!!"
As Tieniu roared, the two hundred soldiers beside him roared with all their strength and followed him towards Zhao Mancheng.
Neither side brought many bows and arrows, so it was a hand-to-hand fight from the beginning.
"Kill!" The soldiers on both sides were elites. After the handover, the winner could not be determined for a while, but corpses continued to appear.
"Kill!" Zhao Mancheng faced Tieniu and swept his silver gun towards Tieniu's waist with a whirring sound.
Tieniu's pupils shrank and he was shocked. He was going so fast. Was this guy really injured?
A "touch" sound. Tieniu lost the initiative, gritted his teeth and raised his horse to defend himself. The silver gun hit the horse's spear, and the power from the gun made Tieniu's face turn the color of pig's liver, and he could hardly hold the horse's spear in his hand.
"Kill!!!" Zhao Mancheng's eyes flashed with sarcasm. He was unyielding and shouted again. His silver spear stabbed Tieniu's neck like lightning.
"I'm sorry." Tieniu's soul erupted, and he felt regretful thinking of Wu Nian's explanation. But he is not willing to just sit back and die. He steeled himself, stepped out to defend himself, and shouted: "Brothers, save me."
When Wu Nianjun's soldiers heard this, they immediately stepped forward desperately to save Tieniu. However, Zhao Mancheng's personal soldiers tried their best to stop him.
Tieniu barely blocked Zhao Mancheng's five moves, and with a "bang" sound, he finally lost his grip on the horse and fell to the ground. Zhao Mancheng swung his silver gun and glanced at Tieniu's head.
With this shot, Tieniu's head would definitely be split open.
"It's over."
Tieniu thought.
He was not afraid, as the general would inevitably die in battle. Since joining the army, he has had the consciousness of being wrapped in horse leather.
The face of his young and beautiful concubine appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but cry out what a pity.
If I die here, they will be widowed.
