Feng He felt that Ma Feizi was valuable, so he did not show any seriousness during the interrogation. Ma Feizi had an illusion. He felt that he was very important and no one dared to do anything to him.
Tan Wenyue was different. He saw that Ma Feizi was very annoyed, so he slapped him a few times, so hard that he dislocated Ma Feizi's jaw.
Ma Feizi cursed in pain, and his words were unclear. Tan Wenyue glanced at the soldier next to him.
The soldier held Ma Feizi's head and reset his jaw.
"If you dare to hit me, if I don't tell you, you will all be in trouble."
Ma Feizi was still arrogant. Tan Wenyue frowned and cursed: "I have been fighting with the ghost tribe for hundreds of years. I can't survive without you?"
"Drag it out and chop it, what is it!"
Tan Wenyue didn't care at all. The soldier dragged Ma Feizi out. Ma Feizi thought he was scaring him and continued to curse.
Dragging him outside, the soldiers threw Ma Feizi to the ground, pulled out a dark knife, and wanted to kill Ma Feizi.
Only then did Ma Feizi confirm that Tan Wenyue really wanted to kill him.
Ma Feizi was so frightened that he rolled away and shouted: "I know the inside story of Gui Fei, you..."
The black knife fell and one of Ma Feizi's legs was cut off. The soldier frowned and raised the knife to kill again.
Ma Feizi shouted: "The governor of Yangcheng is a ghost-born spy, and the Yuncheng guard Zeng Mu is also a ghost-born spy. You still dare to kill me..."
The soldier was too lazy to pay attention and stepped forward to make a stabbing blow, and Ma Feizi was beheaded.
After shaking off the blood on the knife, the soldier turned back to the camp to resume his life.
Tan Wenyue was drinking with Yu Wenkai when a soldier came in and reported: "General Tan, he was killed. Before he died, he said that the Yangcheng prefect and Yuncheng guard Zeng Mu were ghosts."
After hearing this, Yu Wenkai put down the wine jar in his hand and said, "Prefect of Yangcheng? Isn't Yuncheng a border? There is actually an insider among the guards?"
Tan Wenyue put down the wine bowl and said with a smile: "It's hard to tell the truth from the lie. That guy may be talking nonsense before he dies."
Yu Wenkai said: "Send a letter to Yuncheng and tell Long Chen to confirm it. If it is true, there may be trouble."
The soldier immediately sent a letter to Yuncheng.
...
Cloud City.
A letter eagle flew back, and the soldiers immediately took the information and presented it to guard Donna.
This trust eagle was released by Hou Qi, which means that Hou Qi discovered the enemy situation ahead.
Donna received it and immediately unfolded it. It read: 200 miles northeast of Yuncheng, 500 ghosts were found.
After reading the information, Donna immediately ran to Long Chen's room.
At this time, Long Chen was still sleeping, Shi Jingxiang's thick black hair fell on the pillow, and he held Long Chen's arm with one hand.
There was a knock on the door, and Long Chen opened his eyes. Shi Jingxiang was very sleepy. He let out a soft breath, moved his body, and continued to sleep while hugging Long Chen.
Long Chen slowly took Shi Jingxiang's hand, put on his clothes, and opened the door. Donna stood anxiously outside the door.
"King Wu, Hou Qi found traces of the ghost clan, 200 miles northeast, numbering 500."
Long Chen nodded slightly and said: "500, can the general leading the army be sure?"
Donna shook her head and said, "I didn't say anything."
The waiting knights are all ordinary soldiers. After discovering the ghost tribe, they will definitely not dare to get close to detect them, and they will not be able to figure out the generals leading the troops.
"Don't be nervous, just keep monitoring, it's only 500."
Seeing that Donna was very nervous, Long Chen smiled and patted her shoulder. Donna nodded and said, "With King Wu here, I won't worry."
This is true. Yanmen Pass can be reached by a 90,000-strong siege army. A mere five hundred is nothing.
"You pick some people...that's all. Find some good horses, and I'll go out of the city right away to have a look."
Long Chen originally wanted to take some soldiers and horses out of the city, but he thought it was unnecessary, because these soldiers were just there to watch the fun, or to die.
Therefore, Long Chen only needs a few fast horses and Shi Jingxiang can leave the city.
"Take orders."
Donna immediately made arrangements. Long Chen closed the door and Shi Jingxiang was already awake.
"Did you discover the ghost clan?"
Shi Jingxiang got up slowly, looking very tired.
"Yes, 500 ghost soldiers."
Long Chen sat on the bed, and Shi Jingxiang picked up his clothes and got up.
"Why is it only 500? The ghost clan thinks we are weak? Are we still suspicious soldiers?"
Having fought against the ghost clan several times, Shi Jingxiang no longer fears the ghost clan.
In her opinion, the ghosts are just stronger enemies.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know. I only know after looking at it. It's 200 miles away. If we march at full speed, we should be about 100 miles away from Yuncheng now."
It takes time for the flying eagle to pass the message. The ghost clan is still advancing and should be very close to Cloud City at this time.
"The two of us?"
Shi Jingxiang heard it just now, and Long Chen said: "We two, it's useless if the others go, they can only defend the city."
If there were only 500 people, Long Chen would be sure to wipe them all out.
Of course, it also depends on who the opponent’s general is.
"good."
Shi Jingxiang got up, combed her hair briefly, and the two of them went out.
When they arrived at the north gate, Donna had prepared her war horse.
"King Wu."
Donna and Yan Gang were waiting at the door with a group of military officers.
"You guys hold on to the city, don't go out to fight, and everything goes according to plan."
"The general will understand, King Wu, be careful."
Long Chen got on his horse and ran towards the northeast with Shi Jingxiang.
Among the generals who saw him off, there was a veteran general in his 50s. This man was from the old Xixia tribe and surrendered to the Zhou Dynasty. He is now the captain of the crossbow school, named Zeng Mu.
Zeng Mu watched Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang leave the city and said worriedly: "General Tang, King Wu has left. If the ghost clan makes a sneak attack at this time, we may not be able to defend it."
Lieutenant General Yan Gang said: "The ghost tribe is still outside the city. King Wu is blocking the front. The ghost tribe cannot attack the city."
Donna also said: "According to the planned plan, enter the battle state, especially your crossbow battalion, all ready, and the muskete battalion, all ready!"
Zeng Mu took the order and went down.
Long Chen and Shi Jingxiang rode their horses toward the northeast. They encountered five waiting riders on the way. Long Chen stopped them and asked, "Where are the ghosts?"
Hou Qi didn't know Long Chen, so Long Chen took out the token, and Hou Qi immediately reported back: "Return to King Wu, the ghost tribe has camped in front and can't move."
Long Chen was slightly surprised. The ghost clan actually stopped camping? What's the meaning? Waiting for reinforcements?
Long Chen rode forward, with Shi Jingxiang following behind.
After running for more than ten miles, Long Chen saw the ghost tribe's military camp.
I took out my binoculars and saw hundreds of ghost soldiers setting up camp.
They didn't carry tents or anything like that, they just sat down, let their horses graze, and sent people to patrol the outside, that's all.
The number of people is about the same as the waiting reward, which is around 500.
Long Chen looked through the camera to find the ghost general leading the troops.
After searching for a while, I finally saw two familiar figures: Qin Hao and Guitai.
"It is indeed the two of them."
Long Chen smiled coldly.
Shi Jingxiang also saw Qin Hao and Guitai and said, "The two of them led the troops, and they only brought 500. What does this mean?"
Long Chen couldn't kill Qin Hao, but he could suppress him. Qin Hao was no match for Long Chen, and Gui Fei was no match for Long Chen.
Sending such a general for a sneak attack with only 500 ghost soldiers is tantamount to death.
"So, I suspect this is a suspected soldier."
With a small number of people and no attack, I always felt that the purpose of this group of people was to attract attention.
