Chapter 4: Escape (1)

According to the request of Xue Cong, the general of Longjing Pass, Zhu Yinglong and others got up in the middle of the night, packed their things and rushed to the north gate. The two sides agreed to open the north gate, quietly and quickly left the north gate, and set foot on the Mongolian territory.

Hundreds of war horses in the stables of Longjing Guanjun may not have the strength to stand up tonight, because they were all laxatives, to be precise, they were laxatives by "Sun Shenxing". However, it is unknown whether they were me. Anyway, from now on, the name Sun Shenxing will be wanted throughout the Ming Dynasty, and by the way, he and others may have some minor troubles. But it doesn't matter. If the court wants to want them, they are also wanted as a whole. They can be broken into pieces. There are no cameras or other things in this era, and there are no photos in the identity text, so they were not caught on the spot. They will be wanted in the future unless this person is a fool, or their characteristics are too obvious, and the chance of being caught is minimal. Besides, only a few of them have appeared outside and have been slightly disguised. The identity is still fake. If the wanted order continues like this, there will be no people to be caught, so Zhu Yinglong is not worried about this.

"Prince, then Xue Cong dares to release people so happily, may there be an ambush on the road ahead?" After leaving the customs, Xiong Tingbi quietly whispered to Zhu Yinglong.

"It makes sense. According to General Xiong's opinion, where will he set up an ambush?" Zhu Yinglong also thought of this and frowned and asked.

"I will remember that there is a valley ahead, where we are going to turn east, there is a forest on the side of the road, and I guess the other party should be there if they want to set up an ambush." ​​Xiong Tingbi was familiar with the geographical environment of this area, and that was the place where we were ambushing, and he knew the most.

"We must pass through Xifengkou. We will only be safe when we reach the Mongolian territory." Zhu Yinglong took over and said.

"Battleman Commander Lu, please be careful of the trap!" Xiong Tingbi quietly ordered Lu Haotian beside him. Zhu Yinglong felt a fever on his face, but he was still a little tender. After all, he was a veteran and his mind was much more delicate than himself. It seemed that he had to learn along the way. He must not forget it just because he had gained hundreds of years of experience. The wisdom of the ancients was still used by people in his time and space. It was a accumulation of wisdom for thousands of years. He was just a little higher at the starting point, but in fact the starting point was still behind others.

"Pay attention to the woods on the left and beware of hidden arrows!" The team turned left around the valley, and Xiong Tingbi calmly issued another order, which was related to life and death. This was not the time to show off. Zhu Yinglong honestly handed over the command of the team to Xiong Tingbi, and obediently obeyed the arrangements.

The team was halfway through the marching and entered the range of the forest on the left side of the road. A sound arrow broke through the air. With a "puff", a horse beside Zhu Yinglong fell down, and blood splattered into Zhu Yinglong's eyes. Zhu Yinglong felt a hot eye and saw only a dark red and a strong smell of blood rushing into his nostrils. Whether in the time and space before or in this time and space, it was the first time he saw blood. He was already prepared to fight, but he didn't expect that the first person to be stained with blood would be himself, and he was stunned.

"Form a formation!" Xiong Tingbi quickly pulled out his waist knife and shouted calmly to everyone.

These fifty soldiers from the Tiger Camp were carefully selected. Although some of them had not been on the battlefield, they showed that they were calm in the face of danger and quickly protected Zhu Yinglong and other important personnel, performing their own duties, and have initially appeared as a group of outstanding soldiers.

"Who is the person in the woods? What kind of heroes are we? Get out of the way with secret arrows? After waiting for a long time, no one came out of the woods, and there was no movement at all, so Xiong Tingbi asked at the woods.

The people in the woods were the people who were ambushing here by Xue Cong's sect. He was led by a hundred generals under his command. They were all Xue Cong's confidants. They were ambushing here before dusk. They waited until midnight, and then they saw Zhu Yinglong and others coming late. They walked very carefully. There was no sound of horse stance behind them. This president was not a fool. They knew that their boss must have encountered some trouble. Otherwise, they would have agreed to make this group of private salt dealers here. They were almost half gone, and there were no horse hooves.

The sound came, so he gritted his teeth and quietly gave an archer to an order from his subordinate, asking him to test the other party's reaction to see if the people he led could be settled. Then he knew that if the arrow went down, the effect would be achieved, and he would also shoot a horse. However, the calmness and quality of the other party immediately made his heart feel cold. With more than a hundred people, even if he cleaned up the other party, he would probably not be left with a few people. So why did Ren Xiong Tingbi scold him? He let no one of his subordinates move.

Since there was no movement in the forest, Xiong Tingbi didn't want to waste time here, so he asked Lu Haotian to be on guard while directing everyone to move forward slowly.

Finally, I walked out of the ambush range of the woods, and I was in danger all the way. As for why people let them go so easily, I was too lazy to analyze it.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was almost dawn. They were probably dozens of miles away from Longjing Pass now. Even if there were pursuers, they could not catch up. Everyone took a break and Zhu Yinglong also wiped the dry horse blood on his face, then continued to get on the horse and galloped eastward.

Xifengkou: The pass in the eastern section of the Yanshan Mountains was called Lulongsai in ancient times, and the roads were connected to the north and south. Songting Pass was established here in the Han Dynasty, with a long history. Cao Cao fought with Wuhuan in western Liaoning at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. During the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the former Yan Murong Yen advanced to the Central Plains and all passed through this pass. Later, they changed their name to Xifengkou. According to legend, some people did not return for a long time. His father and son came to meet thousands of miles away. The father and son met at the foot of the mountain, laughed loudly, died in joy, and buried here. Therefore, this is called this. After arriving at Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, it was falsely called Xifenghui. In the third year of Jingtai in the Ming Dynasty, it was called Xifengkou Pass. Unfortunately, this was originally a barrier to the north of the Ming Dynasty, but now it has become the world of the Later Jin and Mongols. Xiong Tingbi and Zhu Yinglong stood at the gate and sighed.

"Our dynasty once set up three guards in Daning, "Duoyan, Taining, Fuyu" in Daning, among which the Duoyan Guard is the strongest. The other two guards are basically following the Duoyan Guard's head. They bullied me weakly and often attacked my Xifengkou Fortress. They were defeated by General Qi Jiguang, the general of Ji Town. Later, they married the Mongolian Kalaqin and gradually joined the Mongolian Kalaqin tribe. In short, what we have to pass through is the territory of the Duoyan Guard who belonged to the Kalaqin tribe as the lord." Xiong Tingbi explained.

"Isn't it the Korqin Zaru special tribe?" Zhu Yinglong said strangely.

"The prince asked well. Going out of Xifengkou to the north is the Korqin Zarute tribe, and going east is the territory of Doyanwei Albatu as the lord, but they are now considered Mongols of the Kalaqin tribe." Xiong Tingbi explained.

"So that's the case. General Xiong, why don't you explain it clearly? This made me wrongly understand it." Zhu Yinglong said quite blaming.

Xiong Tingbi scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "My general has not been outside the pass for four or five years. He forgot about his excitement."

Xiong Hu saw that his father was so old that he actually made a child’s mistake, and he burst out laughing, which made everyone around him laugh. Zhu Yinglong also felt that Xiong Tingbi made this move a bit funny, and he couldn’t help laughing, but what he caused was Xiong Hu’s resentful eyes!

"Prince, I heard that there is a Xu Taifu City about ten miles northeast of this place. It was built by Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan in this dynasty. I often heard people outside the pass say that it was a piece of jasper among the mountains of Yanshan Mountain. The cliffs were steep and the environment was quiet. It was a good place. Should we go and take a look?" Lu Haotian inserted it and said.
