Chapter 457: Cloud Arrow(1/2)

The battlefield ahead was fiercely fought.

The strong men and auxiliary soldiers of the Taishan Army were also busy non-stop.

Zheng Da wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked his men to be more careful before he had time to take a sip of water.

After rescuing Le Jin, Zheng Da's fortune improved.

Now he has become a small official in the supply camp, and is in charge of more than fifty stretchers. He is also a decent person.

He was drinking water when he suddenly saw two fools carrying a stretcher and running around like headless flies.

Zheng was so angry that he yelled:

"You two idiots, follow the stretcher in front and go to the battlefield. The injured brothers are waiting for you to save their lives."

The two fools hurriedly responded and followed a flow of people and ran towards the battlefield.

In fact, it is not the fault of these two farmers. It is really that the battlefield behind the scenes is too chaotic.

Wounded people were constantly being sent down from the front, and then there were auxiliary troops from the baggage battalions who had to carry armor, weapons, and arrows to support the front line. Then, there were crowded baggage and grain piles placed and pushed everywhere on both sides of the road.

What a messed up word.

At this time, another group of remaining soldiers retreated carrying the military flag.

Zheng Da's sharp eyes could tell at a glance that it was the trap of the Central Guard Army.

He led a group of people carrying water and went up to meet them.

At this time, the officials who were trapped in the camp were not in good condition and were dejected. Zheng Da did not dare to say anything, so he asked people to put down the water and prepare to do other things.

Those officials who were trapped in the camp did not have any arrogance, and under the restraint of a few military officials, they continued to use water.

Zheng Da, who walked to the side, vaguely heard the words "shame", "blood shame", "gratitude" and "yellow sky" being said by the military officials.

He also said, "Don't let the Taishan Army look down on our Yellow Turban Army."

Only then did Zheng Da realize that this group of people who had retired to reorganize were the old Yellow Turban Army soldiers.

Zheng Da curled his lips and straightened his waist without any intuition, feeling quite confident.

From here, it can be seen that the integration of the Yellow Turban Army and the Taishan Army still has a way to go.

On one side of the retreating camp, there was also a group of unarmed Qin and Hu Yi Cong, including infantry and cavalry. They were all clinging to the carriages attentively and watching the situation on the battlefield.

Whenever there is something exciting, someone will tell it to the person below, and it will trigger a round of applause.

This group of people was the Ma Teng tribe that was the first to rebel before the war. After they were led to retreat, they were arranged to rest here.

Then, in front of these people, it was different from the bleak situation of those trapped in the camp just now.

A group of wounded soldiers also retired, but they were carrying military flags and beaming with joy.

They held high the war flags and weapons they had captured from the enemy, and showed off their power at the edge of the robe. Especially in front of the defeated troops trapped in the camp, they walked three times, causing the latter to yell and curse.

And these people are different from the previous wounded soldiers. Even though many of them were injured, they refused to be sent down on stretchers. They wanted to walk back together with their robes, and that would be a triumphant return.

Looking at these different landscapes, Zheng Da sighed with emotion that our old Taishan army was still the toughest.

At this time, Zheng Da suddenly heard someone calling him.

But it was Niu Er and a few others. They walked over to a prisoner whose clothes were torn and stained with blood, and walked over step by step.

Zheng cursed:

"What happened when I asked you to fetch water?"

Na Niu Er grunted angrily:

"Team leader, we were fetching water from the stream, and this man suddenly jumped out. At first glance, he was a spy."

As soon as he heard that he was a spy, Zheng Da hurriedly ran over. He first looked at the prisoner's mouth and then touched his body. He was so skinny that he didn't look like a spy.

But no one can be sure whether he is a spy or not. What if he falls into the wrong hands and beheaded as a spy? But he was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to say:

"You are a spy."

The prisoner was very excited and kept shouting, but neither of them could understand.

Zheng Da and Le Jin were all from the Chenliu area in East County of Yanzhou. The man in front of him probably spoke the local dialect. After thinking about it, Zheng Da asked around his subordinates:

"Do any of you understand what this man is saying?"

Everyone looked around, and finally there was a former businessman who raised his hand and said:

"The spy said he was looking for someone with a large apricot-yellow paper and a nine-section staff. He said that his elder brother wanted him to bring a message to this person."

Zheng Da muttered:

"How can we have such a person here?"

Suddenly, Zheng Dafu came to his heart and slapped his thigh in disbelief:

"Mother Xie, you are not looking for the king, are you?"

Zheng Da has never met the king, but he also knows that our king always carries a large banner of "Walking for Heaven" when marching and stationed, and the nine-section staff obtained from the Taiping Dao.

Zheng Da grabbed the man and said fiercely:

"What a spy, who are you? Dare you come to assassinate the king?"

The captured prisoner was naturally the White Rabbit.

In fact, Bai Hu thought it was too simple. After all, he was of too low a background. It was not clear that his younger brother, Bai Rabbit, would never have the slightest chance to get close to Zhang Chong, let alone wartime, or even in peacetime.

Therefore, as soon as White Rabbit ran to the edge of the battlefield, he was arrested by the auxiliary soldiers of the supply camp because of his suspicious behavior.

If he hadn't met a kind man, his life would have been long gone.

Maybe it's because of his luck in the Bai family, maybe it's because Zhang Chong is really lucky, but in short, Bai Tu, a young man, met Zheng Da.

Being dragged by Zheng Da at this time, White Rabbit immediately realized that something was wrong. The cleverness in his nature saved him. He said to the person who could understand his own language:

"My brother is from Taiping Road. He exchanged his life for a piece of news about the Taishan Army. Take me to see the leader of your family. I know him. He is General Chongtian."

At this moment, White Rabbit understood everything.

White Rabbit's words were relayed to Zheng Da, but at this time, Zheng Da was in trouble.

He realized that the second greatest opportunity in life had appeared in front of him.

The first time was when he pulled Le Jin out from the pile of corpses.

But this is too risky. Who knows that this person is not a secret spy of the enemy army? Even if the king is brave and powerful, he can crush this person with one finger.

But as long as this person is a spy and he, Zheng Da, takes him there, he will definitely be implicated beyond redemption.

So do you want to gamble or not?

Zheng Da's eyes changed, and suddenly he saw Bai Rabbit's eyes, which were pleading.

He thought of the first sentence this man just said:

"My brother paid for it with his life..."

Zheng Da sighed and understood.

He looked seriously into White Rabbit's eyes and asked one last time:

"Do you really have important information to send to the king?"

Human communication sometimes does not require words, just a look.

Looking at Zheng Da, Bai Tu nodded sharply.

Finally, Zheng Da decided to go all out and take White Rabbit to see the king.

But the subordinates expressed:

"Leader of the team, let's forget it. Where is the King that we can see whenever we want?"

Seeing that his authority was being questioned, Zheng Da blushed and cursed:

"You guys know nothing. Do you know that Sima, the cavalry army under the Central Guards Army, has a life-long friendship with our old Zheng. If we ask him to guide us, will we still not be able to see the king?"

Seeing that the team leader was so determined, everyone rushed forward and expressed their willingness to protect the team leader to see the king.

In the end, Zheng Da chose two, one was the merchant who had just sent the message, and the other was Niu Er who had captured the white rabbit.

Taking White Rabbit into custody, the three of them went to the tent area in front, where the Chinese army was located.

The closer they got here, the more they could see troops being mobilized towards the front line, and Zheng Da and the others began to feel the noise and smell of the battlefield.

Following the wind, a hot fishy smell billowed in, and Zheng Da couldn't stand it anymore.

He was already trembling and nervous, but when he was hit by the smell, he immediately vomited.

The movement here caused a loud shout:

"Which department do you belong to? Tell me the password."

The person who said this was a tough warrior with an iron spear in his hand and five armored soldiers who shouted at them angrily.

Zheng Da immediately stopped trembling and quickly answered the command:
To be continued...
