"Those who are terminally ill are not Ji people, but the dynasty."
The snow in the early morning was still falling non-stop. In the wind and snow, Chen Jiaqiao was still promoting ideological education to dissuade rebellion.
"When the dynasty falls, the world will be at peace if there is Qingming."
"If you are born like an ant, you should have the ambition of a swan. If your life is as thin as paper, you should have an unyielding heart."
"Mr. Chen, that's a good statement." Xu Mu sighed. After all, he had been with Chang Silang. There was no one like him who could persuade rebellion.
"Brother Mu, we're here."
Xu Mu hurriedly stopped his horse and raised his head in the wind and snow. As Si Hu said, sure enough, in the bare forest ahead, he saw hundreds of people riding on horseback.
Gongou made a long horse whistle.
Not long after, Wei Feng rushed out with more than a dozen riders in surprise.
"Master!"
"Wei Feng, is everyone here?"
"Don't worry, boss, we're all here."
Xu Mu nodded calmly, "Let's go to Anguo Bridge quickly. I guess those Di Gou guys are about to arrive."
One day to come, one day to return. If the delay is too long, there may be something wrong.
"Cover your pockmarked face!"
More than four hundred people on horseback galloped all the way through the snow.
The scattered horse hoof prints were covered up by the fluffy goose snow in less than a blink of an eye.
…
"Tenggri!"
Hu Yanche sheathed the bloody golden sword again and shouted loudly.
In order to vent his anger, he killed at least hundreds of people along the way. It's a pity that he can't get enough, otherwise, he will really pile up a few Jingguan people on Daji's official road.
"General, if, if not, take a rest first and hurry up." The captain put on a flattering smile and patted his horse as he walked over.
"Get away! I don't trust the people from the Central Plains!" Hu Yanche scolded fiercely.
If not, he wouldn't have left Changyang in a hurry in the heavy snow. The mission of the envoy on this trip was actually very simple. It was nothing more than a show of attitude and a few pieces of wool so that the 80,000 Beidi surrender troops at the border could return to the grassland.
Of course, negotiation is still good. The officials in the court were frightened out of their wits when they heard the angry news of Beidi Khan.
The captain got back on his horse and returned to the formation.
The little captain cried all the way and was still crying, but he didn't dare to open his voice and only dared to sob secretly occasionally.
"Don't cry. If you serve in the army for a few more years, you will understand that it's all the same. One day counts as one." The captain was slightly angry and raised his whip to hit the junior captain.
The little captain hurriedly stopped talking and wiped away the tears hanging under his eyelids.
"Five miles ahead is the Anguo Bridge. Please take someone to explore and see if there is any problem with the bridge."
The junior captain took the order and ordered six or seven riders. When passing the glazed carriage, he pinched the horse's belly twice. Unfortunately, he almost fell off the horse accidentally.
…
"My boss, the dog officers and soldiers are here to check the road."
"The envoy from Beidi is behind."
"Don't worry about it first." Xu Mu was not surprised. They were hiding deep in the forest, and with such heavy snow, they should not be discovered.
"My boss, the officers and soldiers checking the road are approaching."
"Hide away."
The little captain who was investigating moved slowly and didn't seem to be paying much attention. He only took a cursory look. About half an hour later, he led the people back to catch up.
In the forest under the wind and snow, Xu Mu breathed a long sigh of relief. Based on this look, there should be no problem.
"Everyone, are you ready?"
"Just waiting to get to the bridge."
The sound of horse hooves trampling on the snow was getting closer and closer. After the snow curtain, when the team of Beidi envoys approached, they finally could distinguish the general scenery.
Just, only a few glances. The faces of the people in the forest became heavy.
On the glazed carriage, which was closely escorted by thousands of Di people and two thousand Daji officers and soldiers, there were clearly hanging human heads one after another, as if they had just been killed, with a pair of eyes still bulging in fear, and they could not rest in peace.
"Those dog officers and soldiers are still escorted by the army? I really want to chop off their heads one by one!" Wei Feng looked angry.
The Di people are certainly hateful, but these conscienceless dog officers and soldiers are even more hateful.
For example, the Qinglong Battalion had previously fought bloody battles with the Di people in Wangzhou City, but now, these officers and soldiers actually became the guards of the Di people.
How ironic.
"Master, there are so many civilian heads on that carriage..."
"Those dog officers and soldiers, are they watching helplessly?"
Xu Mu's heart aches. If this is the case, it is conceivable that this rotten dynasty will have no fighting force.
"My boss, we are going to the bridge."
Xu Mu was silent for a moment and made a cold gesture. In the forest, hundreds of people began to prepare for action.
A long team of nearly three thousand people braved the wind and snow to ride up the half-mile-long Anguo Bridge. Faintly, I could still hear Hu Yanche shouting something.
The head hanging on the side of the carriage was filled with fishy stench, which was getting stronger and stronger.
"Have you covered your pockmarked face?"
"Master, cover it up. Di Ma also has his head covered and cannot recognize him."
The biggest difference between Beidi horses and Central Plains horses is the variegated color of their manes. As for other small differences, in this kind of wind and snow, they are not a big problem.
"Disperse."
There were more than 400 people in the forest, and a hundred horsemen and horses were separated. They reined up their reins and rode towards the end of the Anguo Bridge.
"Raise the bow!" Following Wei Feng's low shout, the remaining three hundred people raised their long bows one after another.
…
On Anguo Bridge, Huyanche, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly opened his eyes that were slightly squinted.
He poked his head out of the carriage and looked around with a solemn expression.
"General, we had someone check it before and there is no problem nearby." Captain Jiren hurriedly approached and spoke flatteringly.
"Shut up, you dead Central Plains people!"
Hu Yanche's eyes narrowed, trying to see something clearly through the snow curtain.
"General, we're at the middle of Anguo Bridge. We're only a few steps away—"
Before the captain finished speaking, the powerful horse suddenly raised its head and neighed. Immediately afterwards, the first batch of flying arrows came from nowhere.
Caught off guard, a long line of three thousand people screamed one after another on the bridge.
"Enemy attack!" Huyanche raised his golden sword and roared loudly. He also did not forget to grab the captain in front of him and hacked him to death with a knife in anger.
Even though one shoulder was injured, under the huge force, the captain's dog head flew out of his head.
Many soldiers around him were shocked and suddenly stopped on the spot.
"The Di dog will kill me!" The former captain shouted in pain, returned his sword, and slashed at the Di man riding beside him.
In response, the Di man fell from his horse and his body was chopped into meat paste.
In the past hundred years, Beidi and Daji have never been friends.
"Kill all these Central Plains people!" Hu Yanche gasped, and a ferocious aura spread throughout his chest.
He felt that even if he killed the 2,000 soldiers who accompanied the army, the 80,000 surrendered troops should still be released. These Ji people are all weak at heart.
"See clearly where Vulin's archers are hiding!"
"General, there are cavalry coming from the end of the bridge!"
Hu Yanche raised his head in surprise and saw a cold figure in the misty snow. He stopped his horse near the end of the bridge and seemed to quickly dismount. He didn't know what he was doing.
"There are people at the bridge too."
Hu Yanche cursed angrily and raised his sword to cut a Ji soldier who rushed in front of him into two halves.
Look up again.
Then he noticed two figures on horseback at the end of the bridge. They reined in their horses coldly and looked towards him.
"Raise your horse and bow! Shoot them to death——"
Rumble.
Before Hu Yanche could finish his words, the entire Anguo Bridge suddenly began to shake violently.
At the end of the bridge, Chen Jiaqiao and hundreds of horsemen were hanging on the rope hooks one after another, using the strength of the horses to drag the entire bridge down.
"General, these Central Plains people are collapsing the bridge."
"Idiot! Hurry up your bow! Go back to the bridge first, there are only two of them there!" Hu Yanche raised his sword and shouted, not caring about fighting Ji Zu anymore.
In the forest, waves of flying arrows still came through the rain curtain. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people riding Di were buried on Anguo Bridge.
…
"Si Hu." Xu Mu said calmly in the wind and snow.
Hearing Xu Mu's voice, Si Hu pressed the bamboo hat and jumped off the horse in an instant. His steady steps fell, splashing a large amount of flying snowflakes.
"Tell me what your name is."
"Brother Mu, my name is Si Hu."
"No, you are called the Tiger of the Great Age, and there is no one like you in the world." Xu Mu raised his hand and pointed at Di Ren and Ji Zu who were rushing forward.
"When we meet on a narrow road, the brave will win. Tell those bastards who is the best warrior in the world."
"Bridge collapse——"
Si Hu's eyes bulged, he roared and picked up a bridge pile, raised it high, and then collapsed towards the bridge road.
