Chapter 397 Siege

In Baiyun Room, it was like demolishing a house. Any place where someone might be hiding was broken open if it couldn't be opened. Many walls were broken open.

Soon the interior of the gold-selling cave was in tatters.

"Step aside!"

An angry shout came from the street, the sergeant blocking the street was pushed away, and Hao Yunsheng limped over accompanied by his retinue.

Facing the King of the Western Courtyard, the sergeants were in a dilemma because they had not received military orders. This was His Majesty the Emperor's younger brother. They did not know whether to stop him or not, and they did not dare to offend him easily.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Hao Yunsheng's face under the firelight was dark and gloomy, and his eyes were filled with rage that could not be concealed.

"My lord, you are wronged!"

"Your Majesty makes the decision for us!"

Seeing the big patron coming, a fan who was kneeling on the ground suddenly got up, pushed away the guarding sergeant, and knelt in the middle aisle to block the way and cry out for injustice.

At this sound, several fans climbed out of the kneeling queue and blocked the road together to cry out for injustice.

The other Yingying Yanyans immediately burst into tears and responded to the fans' cries of injustice. They all turned around and knelt towards Haoyunsheng, and the streets were full of cries.

The men kneeling on the other side were looking at each other secretly, but they were quiet. Some even exchanged glances with each other, ready to watch the fun.

Looking at the group of people kneeling in front of him, Hao Yunsheng glanced around with cold eyes and shouted angrily: "It's a legal business, who gives you the power to act rashly? Do you still have the law in your eyes? Let Huyan Wuhen come to see me!

"

As soon as he finished speaking, clusters of archers suddenly appeared from the windows on the streets on both sides.

There was a sudden sound of bow strings swishing and breaking, and arrows rained down suddenly.

Hao Yunsheng was startled, and the accompanying mages behind him stepped forward and cast spells to protect him.

However, those arrows only came towards Hao Yunsheng, but they did not hit Hao Yunsheng. Instead, the people kneeling in front of Hao Yunsheng screamed.

"ah……"

A dozen fans who had just come out crying and complaining fell to the ground amidst shrill screams. Each one of them was shot like a hedgehog and instantly fell into a pool of blood.

After a burst of bows and a burst of screams, the scene fell into a dead silence. The warblers and swallows who had been crying in agreement just now were all trembling, and they felt a little scared out of their wits. No one dared to shout anymore.

The men kneeling on the other side were so frightened that their heads shrank, their faces were ugly, and they felt as if they were out of their minds. They no longer wanted to watch the excitement, and began to worry about whether the Knight Cavalry Army would go on a killing spree.

Hao Yunsheng was truly frightened. For a moment, he even mistakenly thought that someone was taking the opportunity to kill him.

A figure suddenly appeared in the fire-lit aisle in front of him. Hao Yunsheng thought it was his dazzling illusion. When the person walked over slowly, his pupils shrank suddenly when he saw who it was.

Cha Hu suddenly appeared and walked over. He stopped across the group of corpses on the ground and took a look at his broken leg. "The majestic prince actually appeared in public to stand up for a brothel. It doesn't look good.

It’s also ridiculous!”

Hao Yunsheng waved his sleeves and said angrily: "We are arrogantly launching an army in the capital. Do you want to rebel?"

Cha Hu: "Don't blame me randomly. There are reasons for mobilizing the army. The prince has no right to interfere in military affairs. Interfering with military affairs without authorization is a capital crime. Please leave quickly."

Hao Yunsheng: "Let Huyan Wuhen come to see this king!"

Zha Hu held his hands on his abdomen and said slowly: "Your Majesty, the General has an order. Anyone who dares to obstruct military affairs will be killed!" As he spoke, he looked coldly at the retinue mages around Hao Yunsheng, his eyebrows gradually raised.

As soon as these words were spoken, a group of archers from the upstairs windows on both sides cocked their arrows again, and turned their swords and guns around to aim at Hao Yunsheng.

After Hao Yunsheng's retinue mage looked at Cha Hu, he seemed to feel a little guilty and muttered a few words in Hao Yunsheng's ear.

In the end, Hao Yunsheng flicked his sleeves and turned away with an ugly expression on his face.

The reason why the children of the royal family like to fight for power is sometimes not just because of power, but because people under power are too realistic. Without power, there is no dignity. For example, Hao Yunsheng left in front of him with shame and anger.

It feels uncomfortable to be humiliated in public.



jingle!

A bell rang, and this time even Yuan Gang heard it clearly.

There was a faint ringing of a bell in front of him, and Su Zhao raised it, but found nothing unusual and thought it was an illusion.

The two men galloping under the starry sky stopped their horses urgently, looked at each other, jumped off their mounts, and headed towards the location where the bell rang to search.

Not long after, the two found a bell on a small plant.

The bell is nothing, the key is a silk thread attached to the bell. Yuan Gang quickly stroked along the silk thread and found that the silk thread was broken.

Su Zhao immediately released the Moon Butterfly and searched for the broken end of the silk thread. Soon he pulled up another broken silk thread in the grass on the other side and followed it. Even after searching for hundreds of feet, he couldn't find it.

The end.

She didn't dare to waste too much time, and came back with the thread. The two of them took the lead together, looked at their horses, and then looked back at the direction they came from.

Obviously, the thread was broken when the two horses passed by, thus triggering the bell.

This shows that the ringing that Su Zhao heard before was not wrong, but because the location of the broken wire was at different distances from the location of the bell, some could be heard clearly while others could not.

The two of them didn't know how many threads they had tripped and broken along the way. Not to mention that they couldn't see it at night, even in the daytime, who would have noticed that such a thin thread hidden in the grass was broken by a horse's hoof?

Yuan Gang soon realized that the grassland was vast and it was not easy to find people. This was probably a military method used by the Xiaoqi Army to find targets on the grassland. It might be interfered by other animals and people, but the Xiaoqi Army definitely had a screening method.

s method.

"Our general whereabouts should have been discovered by the Knight Cavalry Army!" Yuan Gang looked solemn.

The reason is very simple. Those who want to arrest them cannot just arrange this thing aimlessly everywhere in the vast grassland. No matter how simple the arrangement is, it is too much.

Su Zhao: "How are you sure it's the military? Is it possible that it was arranged by someone else?"

Yuan Gang looked around and said: "This thing seems simple, but it cannot be done by a small number of people, nor can it be done by your monks no matter how high your cultivation level is. To play an early warning role, you must have a complete set of systems that can be operated on a large scale."

OK, this must be a military early warning method, others do not have such manpower and organizational capabilities."

Su Zhao nodded thoughtfully and understood why he was definitely the Xiaoqijun. It was naturally because of the Huyan family, but he couldn't help but look at Yuan Gang a few more times.

"Put away the moon butterfly, change your route, let's go!" Yuan Gang greeted.

The two men immediately ran towards the war horses, turned over, turned their mounts and galloped away in the other direction.

"No wonder you were able to hide it from Hu Yan Wuhen's eyes. Even I almost mistakenly thought you were from the military. You really worked hard to get close to the Hu Yan family!" Su Zhao, who was riding side by side, couldn't help sighing.

Not only because of what happened just now, in order to escape pursuit along the way, she had long noticed that Yuan Gang seemed to have a considerable understanding of the military's tactics.

Yuan Gang did not explain.

After about a stick of incense, the faces of the two men who were galloping under the night changed slightly. They both looked back and faintly heard the sound of a lot of horse hoofbeats.

The thunderous sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer. The two of them rushed up a hillside and looked back. They saw a long black shadow chasing them under the moonlight, and the shadow of a moon butterfly.

With so many cavalry, it is difficult not to believe that they are from the Knight Cavalry Army.

Yuan Gang quickly pointed in the direction and said: "You go over there. After you go to Qingshan County, tell the situation to the magistrate. The magistrate will naturally distinguish right from wrong and arrange you well, and he will not treat you badly!"

Su Zhao was anxious, "I'm not leaving. If I want to leave, let's go together."

Yuan Gang: "You leave first and find a way to contact Master Tao. If Master Tao takes action, it is possible to rescue me. Their target is me. If you are with me, no one can leave!"

Su Zhao refused, "I won't leave!"

In her eyes, Yuan Gang is just an ordinary man. She can still help and protect him, but she cannot accept leaving Yuan Gang and running away alone.

After such a delay, the two of them were unable to leave even if they wanted to. The horsemen and horses who were chasing behind them were very skilled in horseback riding, which was beyond the comparison of the two. They caught up with them in a short while, with an astonishing momentum that swept across the vast land.

The large group of cavalry suddenly changed their formation, divided into two groups, and formed a 'V'-shaped flanking attack.

A team of hundreds of people rushed out at high speed. Under the night, it seemed that only horses could be seen galloping and no people could be seen. Hundreds of people were all clinging to the horses' backs, and they were able to ignite rockets and bowstrings at such a fast pursuit speed.

There was a sudden sound, and a piece of fire shot from one side.

Although they didn't hit either of them, they were forced to quickly change directions and use rockets to press them all the way.

It didn't take long for Yuan Gang to realize that the other party was not chasing them, but forcing them to a certain direction.

By the time I realized it, it was already too late. In front of me under the night sky, I could see several moon butterflies fluttering, and below the moon butterflies was a long black shadow, like a wall.

It was difficult for Yuan Gang and Su Zhao not to go in that direction, so they were flanked and rushed over.

The black wall suddenly lit up, a large number of torches were raised, and a dense line of cavalry blocked the front.

Among the blocking cavalry, a large number of people strung their bows and pointed their bows and arrows towards this side. A rain of arrows would come at any time.

The chasing cavalry gradually slowed down and finally stopped.

Yuan Gang and Su Zhao were coerced by this momentum, and their escape rhythm was involuntarily controlled.

When the two of them were blocked and stopped, they looked around and found that they were surrounded by a large army, with cavalry holding torches everywhere.

The cavalry commander waved his hand, the bow and arrows he opened were slowly bowed, and the arrows he was aiming at were lowered.

To the left and right of the general, there were several retinue mages, who were obviously monks from the three major sects based on their attire.

Yuan Gang raised his sword, Su Zhao drew his sword, and both of them were alert to their surroundings.

However, the cavalry that besieged them had no intention of attacking or letting them go. They remained silent, as if they just wanted to encircle them, and seemed to be waiting for something.

The trapped two people did not dare to act rashly. They could not figure out the depth of the opponent's accompanying mage. If they only had cavalry, they would still dare to charge.

Not long after, the rumble of hoofbeats was heard in the distance, and hundreds of horses galloped over in the night.
