Chapter 173 The groom is the enemy

Light troops sneak in the enemy's territory, and any elite army fears it like a tiger and dare not try it easily.

Tian Chuxin not only led more than a thousand men to do this, but also successfully blocked the news and concealed the Jingzhou army. Along the way, Tian Chuxin did not dare to walk the road, and ordered more than a thousand men to cross mountains and ridges, and specifically selected places with sparsely populated areas to advance. Tian Chuxin did not let go of anyone who had seen more than a thousand armies and killed them on the spot.

After going through a lot of hardships, more than a thousand people finally arrived at the south bank of the small river. After hiding in the dense forest for three hours, it was already late. Under the cover of night, Tian Chuxin led his people over the dry riverbed and broke into Bailizhou.

The patrolmen in Nai Village, who first discovered Tian Chuxin's trace, rang the gong in their hands before the bow and arrow hit their throat. Immediately afterwards, other patrolmen also rang the gong, slapped the torch, and ran to the place where the accident was happening, trying to find out.

However, they were very unfortunate, and the oncoming bow and arrow took their lives.

The villagers were awakened by the sound of gongs in their sleep, lit the oil lamp, opened the door bolt, and went out to watch. When they found the fully armed soldier, they shouted and ran away with their wives and children.

Tian Chuxin had no interest in the village and was too lazy to chase after it. Although he did not have a map of Bailizhou, he knew that the core area of ​​Bailizhou was distributed along the Yangtze River. He believed that as long as he could reach the Yangtze River, Lin Chunhong would be heartbroken and sent back troops to rescue at all costs, so that Tian Chuyun would have a good opportunity to defeat the enemy.

Tian Chuxin ordered his subordinates to stay and ran north.

The chaos in the village alarmed the horse farm five miles away. Ge Wenlu and Cao Laoer hurriedly sent someone to check it out, but they were shocked. Ge Wenlu gritted his teeth and scolded: "Go, go fuck him!"

Cao Laoer stayed at the post station for half his life, and was used to following the orders of his superiors, so he immediately asked, "Do you want to ask the governor's office for an order?"

Ge Wenlu frowned and decided to say, "I am in a hurry to follow the power. I will lead the groom to block the enemy first. You can arrange personnel to inform the cavalry training camp immediately. The Governor's Office and the Security Department will also send a quick horse to you!"

Cao Lao Er nodded, picked up the whistle beside him and blew it violently.

A quarter of an hour later, Ge Wenlu led more than a hundred grooms and hurried out of the horse farm and ran towards the direction of the enemy's attack.

The grooms can't ride horses, and they will laugh at others' big teeth when they say it. These more than a hundred horsemen's skills in swords, bows and arrows are common, but when it comes to horse control techniques, they are not inferior to those of the soldiers of the Cavalry Camp. Under their control, more than a hundred horses galloped across the farmlands of Bailizhou like tornadoes.

The sound of iron hoofs alarmed Tian Chuxin, and Tian Chuxin burst into a cold sweat behind him: Lin Chunhong, a cunning boy, actually left cavalry in Bailizhou!

"Let's array! Welcoming the enemy!" Tian Chuxin's order was anxious and helpless, and his intuition told him that this secret attack on Bailizhou had basically failed half of it.

The dawn of dawn had slowly faded away. The soldiers who had been busy all night were still nervous and stared at the direction of the sound of horse hooves. Their palms were almost sweating, and they held the spear in their hands tightly, trying to resist the coming cavalry.

Finally, more than a hundred cavalry formations were scattered, galloping past the army formation, blocking the direction of the soldiers' advance.

Tian Chuxin breathed a sigh of relief. The knight opposite was wearing an armor, wearing an ordinary Park knife, and holding a hunting bow in his hand. At a glance, he knew that it was the common people who gathered in a hurry.

However, it was this group of mobs that made Tian Chuxin fall into a dilemma and continue to advance. If more than one hundred knights rushed into the queue, it would cause chaos to his subordinates. If they continued to fight with the cavalry, not only would the tired soldiers not be able to stand it, but they would also be surrounded by more and more ordinary people.

Suddenly, the neighing sound of horses came from the knight formation, and a knight came out and rushed towards the soldiers. He was barely seventy or eighty steps apart, turned his horse's head, ran around in front of the formation, showing off his riding skills.

Archers aimed at the knights and shot out the arrows at their hands. However, the knight had outstanding horse control and ran an irregular curve, causing the arrows to fail.

Tian Chuxin immediately stopped this meaningless shooting. More than a thousand soldiers sneaked in light troops, and they didn't carry much of their arms, so they could not afford to waste any of them.

Tian Chuxin's heart became more and more impatient. In desperation, he divided more than a thousand soldiers into three parts: left, middle and right. The central army slowly pressed towards the cavalry, and the two wings were lined up with neat military formations, slowly interspersing behind the cavalry formation, trying to surround more than a hundred knights and annihilate them in one fell swoop.

More than a hundred cavalrymen were like frightened rabbits, and hurriedly retreated for more than 200 steps, and sent several knights to travel back and forth in the formation, consuming Tian Chuxin's patience bit by bit.

In this way, half an hour passed, and the soldiers were tired, their bodies were tired, their feet were floating, and their calves were almost trembling. They turned thousands of miles and ran wildly for another night. They were exhausted.

Suddenly, another sound of horse hooves came from a distance. More than 200 soldiers from the cavalry training camp arrived. They were fully equipped, with a lot of plate armor, sabers, and steel crossbows, and one person and two horses!

These soldiers were just the remaining soldiers from Sheng Kunshan to select, but it was too easy for them to entangle Tian Chuxin. Within two hours, Tian Chuxin could not move his steps and his face became increasingly ugly.

A low horn sounded, and more than 400 security guards arrived in military formations. Most of these guards were injured soldiers on the battlefield. Even though their physical defects were a little weak and their physical strength was no longer worse than those of the soldiers in front of them.

The Security Department is under the Zhijiang Department of the Central Secretariat, and is under the dual leadership of the Zhijiang Department and the Security Department. The Cavalry Training Camp and the Gambler are under the Governor's Office. They rarely come and go on weekdays. Their leaders gathered in one place to discuss for a moment, and then decided to take advantage of the exhaustion of the enemy's troops, the cavalry sao and the enemy's troops were exhausted, and then rushed to the battlefield, and patrolmen and grooms chased them.

When crossbow arrows shot into the formation at two hundred steps, Tian Chuxin completely lost confidence. It was already a problem to get rid of the cavalry, not to mention that there were more than 300 infantry soldiers next to him. Moreover, more and more people carrying weapons gathered around, standing outside the formation from afar to cheer. Tian Chuxin believed that once he became a dog in the water, these people would take the opportunity to chase him without hesitation.

"The entire army is in line to retreat!" Tian Chuxin thought about it again and again, giving up the delusion of continuing to advance to the Yangtze River. Now, being able to retreat with all the troops has become his biggest goal.

Taking advantage of the slight chaos in Tian Chuxin's formation, the soldiers of the training camp rushed into the left wing without hesitation. The sharp sabers, the steel crossbows flying all over the sky, and the iron hooves that shaking the earth completely defeated the soldiers. They had no intention of fighting anymore and turned around and ran away. Tian Chuxin's left wing completely fell into chaos and became a lamb to be slaughtered.

The collapse of the left wing directly affected the central army and the right wing. They hesitated for a moment, followed the pace of the left wing and turned around and ran away.

"Surrender to avoid death!"

The shouts resounded through the sky, hitting the soldiers' last trace of confidence. Most soldiers finally chose to squat with their heads in their arms. After all, they were too tired and had no strength to run away...

In the dungeon, it was cold and wet and smelly. Tian Chuxin was wearing a white prison suit, with his hair scattered and decadent face. He sat in a corner of the prison cell with his knees in his arms, staring at Muzhu in a daze.

Ten days ago, he led more than 4,000 remnants as soon as he stepped into Rongmei's territory, when Tian Chuchan, who was furious, removed his military power and threw it into the dungeon.

Being in a dungeon, not to mention basking in the sun, even the lights are a luxury. In the entire dungeon, there is only an oil lamp at the entrance, emitting a looming light.

Suddenly, the prison door made a creaking sound, and the prison guard entered the cell with a scholar and walked straight towards Tian Chuyun. Tian Chuyun raised his head lazily, full of strength, stood up suddenly, rushed to the pillar of the cell, clutching the pillar with both hands, and hurriedly said, "Deputy Envoy Zhao, how did you get here? Is the Envoy Xuanfu ready to negotiate peace?"

Zhao Liren nodded with a wry smile, "Yes, the Xuanfu Envoy is ready to negotiate peace!"

Tian Chuyun kept staring at Zhao Liren, his hands slid off the pillar, and sat down on the ground dejectedly, murmured: "I'm here to lie to me again. How could Deputy Envoy Zhao stay out of the matter of peace talks about such a big deal and come to see me, a useless person?"

Zhao Liren sighed inwardly and said, "It's really a peace talk. The Xuanfu envoy sent Li Qingyun."

Tian Chuyun was shocked, stood up suddenly, grabbed Zhao Liren, and said anxiously: "What other delaying strategy is used at this time! I am worried that this move will be retaliated by Lin Chunhong, and the Tian family cannot even protect the ancestral hall!"

Zhao Liren lowered his head and said, "The entire army of Shuibuya was wiped out, Liu Mengxiong surrendered, Tian Yue retreated to Yangbanqiao, and Lin Chunhong landed at the mouth of Tongzhuang River!"

Tian Chuyun said anxiously: "Where is Tian Chuxin? Is there any news?"

"There are many rumors that Tian Chuxin was surrounded by cavalry and has been killed in battle."

Tian Chuyun slowly lowered his head and sighed: "I was the one who harmed them!" After saying that, Tian Chuyun grabbed Zhao Liren's arm like a ghost and shouted: "Deputy Envoy Zhao, the Envoy Xuanfu has always obeyed your advice. Please advise him again to discuss peace. As long as you can save your life and keep the ancestral hall, you can agree to any price. We can no longer fight against Lin Chunhong! I, Tian Chuyun, have never asked anyone in my life. I will ask you once this time, and I will kneel down for you!"

Tian Chuyun pounced and knelt on the stone slab. Zhao Liren was shocked: "General, why is this? Liren came today to the envoy of Xuanfu, and asked the general to lead the army again and fight against Lin Chunhong! There is reliable news, Lin Chunhong was severely rebuked by Tang Hui, and he immediately sent troops to Jingmen to protect Xianling!"

Tian Chuyun shook his head: "More than 10,000 troops were destroyed by me personally. What kind of face do I have to lead the army?"

"But now Rong Mei needs the general to protect her!"

Tian Chuyun's eyes were extremely firm: "Rong Mei's future lies in peace talks, and not in war, I will never lead the army again!"

Zhao Liren was silent for a while, took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and handed it to Tian Chuyun, "The Envoy Xuan ordered me to give this to the general!"

When Tian Chuyun saw the porcelain bottle, his face changed drastically, and he couldn't help but burst into tears. Then he laughed: "I, Tian Chuyun, have been confused for a lifetime. I should have gone to see my ancestors for a long time. It would be a blessing to be able to live to this day..."
