Chapter 277: Revenge Now

At that moment, Tao Ze waved his halberd, picked up the reins and walked away.

He Lingchuan raised his wrist and fired a sleeve arrow at him.

When Tao Ze heard the sound of wind behind his head, he turned around and raised his halberd to knock it away. But then there was a cold light in his eyes——

The Fu Sheng Dao whirled and flew.

Tao Ze shrank his head and barely escaped.

He Lingchuan threw the knife almost as soon as he fired his sleeve arrow.

One of the two will always win.

Sure enough, the sword made an abrupt turn in mid-air, and then turned again from the most tricky angle. Tao Ze turned pale with fright. He couldn't avoid it. He reluctantly bent down and took a breath, only to feel severe pain in his abdomen——

The Fusheng knife passed over his belly and opened a finger-deep wound!

This was still blocked by armor.

The organs are damaged, and the intestines and the like are about to flow out.

Tao Ze screamed in pain.

He Lingchuan had already rushed to the Tenglong Spear, reached out and pulled it out from the trunk, turned back and stabbed Tao Ze.

At this time, Tao Ze was so hurt that he barely managed to block Shan Youjun's sword. How could he still have the energy to protect himself?

He Lingchuan stabbed out his spear, piercing right into his open mouth.

The bright tip of the spear penetrated the back of his head.

He Lingchuan simply put the body on the tip of his gun, and while riding his horse, he shouted: "Anyone who stands in my way will die!"

In less than two encounters, the leaders were all killed. The Xunzhou people in front were almost frightened. How could they dare to block the road again? He rushed to the side of the road with all his strength, fearing that he would be shot down if he was too slow.

With quick hands, Shan Youjun grabbed the fallen Red Tiger Halberd and followed He Lingchuan.

The two of them ran more than ten feet away. He Lingchuan lowered the tip of his spear, and Tao Ze's body fell to the ground with a thud.

When the Xunzhou soldiers rushed to collect the leader's body, they only saw the dust raised by the two cavalry as they rode away.

Just a few dozen breaths later, the main force of the Xunzhou Rangers rushed back.

The consecutive whistles just now meant that the situation was urgent and the idea was extremely difficult, so Hong Chenglue also turned back in person.

When he saw Tao Ze's body and the brutality of the shot, he fell silent, and then asked what happened.

Tao Ze's men quickly reported the incident.

"Among the spies behind us, is there someone who wounded General Baili?" Hong Chenglue frowned, "According to the information from Xinhuang, this man is He Chunhua's son."

In other words, He Chunhua sent his son to Bailu Town to inquire about military affairs?

General Xu Yingxian and Tao Ze had a close friendship and a close relationship. He immediately came to greet him with red eyes: "General Hong, give me twenty people, and I will crush this kid's bones and raise him to ashes!"

"He is riding a beast, you can't catch up." Hong Chenglue said calmly, "What is our mission, do you still remember?"

Xu Yingxian opened his mouth to refute, but his sleeve was pulled by Wu Qing beside him, and he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips.

"Remember." It's about assassinations and food robberies behind enemy lines.

"Then what are you waiting for?" Hong Cheng tilted his head slightly, "Time is running out."

The Xunzhou Rangers collectively headed eastward and advanced rapidly.

After another half an hour, the cavalrymen from the rear rushed forward to report that there were no more enemies following behind.

Those two people have ceased their activities?

Hong Chenglue's expression became more solemn, and he ordered the knight to speed up again.

It was because of his excessive trust that the two Xiazhou spies escaped. The second surprise attack was originally a good move, but now it seems to be in doubt.

With this time difference, I don’t know if I can still catch it.

…

He Lingchuan and Shan Youjun rode several hundred feet and stopped when they saw that there were no pursuers behind them.

"They are quite anxious and don't even want to chase him anymore." He Lingchuan looked at Shan Youjun's back and saw a fluttering arrow, "I will pull out the arrow for you."

"Thank you, boss."

He Lingchuan cut off the arrow body with a single blow, and then helped him remove the outer armor. This move affected the injury and made Shan Youjun grimace in pain, so He Lingchuan poured out some white powder and gave it to him: "Eat it."

This is Shituo powder, which can be used externally or internally. Its hemostatic effect is average, but after Shan Youjun swallowed it for a few breaths, the pain in his back shoulder disappeared.

He Lingchuan pressed lightly near the wound a few times, cut the meridians first, and then took a knife to dig out the arrowhead for him.

Shan Youjun saw that his movements were extremely skillful, and he felt a little sigh in his heart. When he was a private soldier in the Li family, he could see clearly that Mr. Li was still a figure, but his children and grandchildren were becoming more and more incompetent. They read many books and learned many principles, but it just didn't help. On the other hand, Mr. He said that his eldest son was brave and his younger son was smart. They both had their own merits and deserved that his family would become stronger.

When she was ambushed earlier, Yao Yuan Lingguang hid in her employer's arms. Now she came out with a water bag, poured water for Shan Youjun to clean his wound, and then applied medicine to bandage it.

As the alchemist takes over, He Lingchuan can free up his energy to guard the surroundings.

It was already dark, the evening wind was blowing, and the grass was rustling, as if there were ambushes everywhere.

He Lingchuan pulled out a few newly grown leaves and wiped the bloody spear tip hard. As for the Fusheng knife, just point the tip down and it will be as clean as new in a short time.

He was rarely taciturn and his expression was very calm, but Shan Youjun could feel the depression and anger beneath this calmness.

"My boss," he said in a harsh voice, "you have already avenged Maotao on the spot." It is rare to see the end of the knot and the end of the knot.

Most people will never have the chance to avenge themselves on the battlefield.

He Lingchuan frowned and nodded.

The archer who shot Maotao and the enemy general who led his team to ambush had all died by his hands.

But the anger and sadness in his heart didn't ease much.

Maotao is an old man who has followed him since Panlong Fantasyland. He has not been with him for a long time, but he can be said to be loyal.

After his death in this battle, none of his subordinates would call him "Young Master" with a smile all day long.

Lingguang helped Shan Youjun deal with his wounds with his hands and feet. Shan Youjun carefully put his outer armor back on and asked He Lingchuan, "Do you want to continue tracking?"

"Continue." He Lingchuan had calmed down, "Our mission is not yet complete."

The two turned their horses around and rushed towards the Xunzhou Rangers again.

As they approached the site of the previous battle, both of them were on high alert, fearing that they would repeat the same mistake. However, although there were still traces of battles everywhere, and the blood on the ground and grass leaves was still there, the bodies were gone.

There were traces of dragging on the ground.

He Lingchuan took the opportunity to find a cave not far away, where the bodies were piled up. Some pungent potions were poured at the entrance of the cave to prevent scavengers from approaching.

"They didn't even have time to bury their own bodies." Shan Youjun murmured, "They were in a hurry."

"They may turn back, but not now." He Lingchuan rode on the Qingbiao horse again, "Let's go."

It was already dark, and it was not easy to find the whereabouts of the front army in the mountains and forests. Fortunately, He Lingchuan had been a demon-catching patrol guard for so long and had learned many hunting skills. Even without Mao Tao, he would only be able to track more slowly.

Half an hour later, he realized something was wrong.

Judging from the traces, the Xunzhou people turned.

Turned to the east.

What's going on?

Could it be that the other party was deliberately setting up a false formation? But Shan Youjun also patrolled the area and didn't find anything unusual.

East?

Why east?

The two looked at each other, and even Shan Youjun, who had been a ranger for many years, was confused. Finally, he said, "Could it be that they want to sneak attack Xinhuang Town?"

"But..." But Baili Qing, Dong Rui and many wounded soldiers are all here. Doesn't Hong Chenglue care?

When He Lingchuan thought of this, he suddenly shuddered and said in a lost voice, "You're right!"

This Hong, what a vicious mind!

In terms of the will and means of winning, he is really comparable to He Chunhua.

But the problem is that he has sent Jiao Tai to Xinhuang to report. With his understanding of He Chunhua, it would be strange if he didn't send troops to suppress the enemy!

I don't know where He Chunhua's army is now.

"No more!" He said decisively, "Go back to the main road, it's best to stop my father's team!"

They followed the Xunzhou people to the east, but He Chunhua led the army to the west. This is a two-way rush, but Hong Chenglue chose another long way, so the two sides will not meet.

The most important thing for He Lingchuan to do now is to take the official road and the shortcut, and pass the news to He Chunhua who is coming to the west in time!

The two of them galloped and went away.

It is not an easy task to travel at night in an unfamiliar mountain forest. Even local mountain people are easy to get lost.

At this time, He Lingchuan should thank his increasingly powerful spiritual consciousness for being able to remember the scenery he passed by. Otherwise, if he turned around a few more times here, he would miss the military event.

About half an hour later, they finally ran out of the mountains and ran on the official road.

Speed ​​is of the essence in war, and the Xiazhou army will definitely choose the fastest, closest and best way.

He Lingchuan's judgment was correct.

An hour later, the sound of horse hooves in the opposite valley was like thunder, and dust was flying when you looked closer. A large group of horses arrived.

Running in the front was He Chunhua and Jiao Tai, who led the way.

The two sides met, and He Chunhua was not happy to see his son but worried: "Why is Chuan'er here? What happened?"

Shan Youjun thought that people from the same family are not the same.

"Hong Chenglue put bait in the mine to lure us here; he took the remaining Xunzhou Rangers to Xinhuang."

This heavy blow was thrown out, and the generals were shocked. He Chunhua's brows were almost tied into a knot: "Are you sure?"

"They went around in a circle, and the last trace left was going east, and they marched in a hurry, and they didn't even have time to bury the dead."

"Feint to the east and attack in the west, that's it." He Chunhua was also a smart man, and he figured it out in a blink of an eye. Xinhuang's defense was empty, and most of the elite troops were taken out by himself, but the food and grass were still in the camp!

If Hong Chenglue cut off the firewood, his trip to transport food to the north would be a complete and utter failure!

Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back.

But he was stared at by so many eyes, and he had to stay calm at this moment!

He Chunhua bit his tongue hard, and forced himself to calm down by the pain and the taste of blood, and suddenly asked for information in the mine. When he knew that there were only the old, weak, sick and disabled and less than a hundred defenders left in the mine, he decisively asked Zeng Feixiong to divide a team of 400 people: "Take down the mine, take down Bailiqing, regardless of life or death!"

Zeng Feixiong took the order and was about to turn around, He Lingchuan peeled off the ring on his hand and gave it to him: "Lend it to you temporarily. There are several jars of high-intensity gunpowder in it. I remember you can fiddle with this."

"Yes." Zeng Feixiong took the ring, puzzled, "What's the use?"
