Chapter 367 Killing people must be silenced, you know too much
Just when Sai Hongfu was hesitating, the sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly came from the distance. When Xiao Tang, Yan Qing, Xu Guanzhong and others looked to the south, they all became wary. Because Xiao Tang saw the coming
The leader of the cavalry was Gao Yongchang, the left-behind general of Liaoyang Prefecture.
Gao Yongchang vaguely saw Xiao Tang and others, and the corner of his mouth was slightly raised, revealing a ferocious look. Gao Yongchang secretly signaled to his cronies to prepare to kill Xiao Tang and his party, but when he saw Sai Hongfu and Xiao Tang standing together,
He frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he still rode up to greet the general.
When Arich and Qiong Yao Nayan were killed by horse thieves and led the remaining troops back to Liaoyang Mansion, Xiao Baoxian, who was left behind in Tokyo, immediately sent troops to find out the whereabouts of Xiao Tang and other envoys from the Song Dynasty. Gao Yongchang also took the opportunity to lead his cronies out of the city to search along the way, but his purpose was certainly not
In order to save Xiao Tang and others, he wanted to get rid of them secretly.
"Mr. Xiao, since you are fine, you can also reassure the people who stayed behind." Gao Yongchang patted his horse and rushed to the distance of only a few dozen steps from Xiao Tang, only to find that Xiao Tang and his men were holding bows and arrows.
, staring at himself with a wary expression.
Xiao Tang looked at Gao Yongchang coldly and said: "Haha, Gao Yongchang, you don't speak secretly in front of people. You and I are like water in the well and don't cross the river. It's your business to make trouble and stand on your own, but you shouldn't offend me either."
Come on over!"
Gao Yongchang's face suddenly darkened. He stared at Xiao Tang like a poisonous snake and said, "What do you mean, Mr. Xiao? The general can't understand!"
Xiao Tang looked at the unkind-looking Bohai navy officer behind Gao Yongchang again. He secretly held his breath and concentrated. If Gao Yongchang suddenly attacked and more than 300 cavalry behind him fired arrows, Xiao Tang would be the best at it.
It may not be possible to avoid it, so he doesn't dare to blindly rely on it.
"General Gao went around with his family to inquire about our whereabouts, right? He was also looking for an opportunity to take our lives, right? If I, Xiao Tang, were not lucky, I would have been a corpse in Longshou Mountain by now!" Xiao Tang said.
Paying attention to Gao Yongchang's movements, he added: "It is true that those who want to achieve great things do not stick to trivial matters, but although you have the ambition to usurp the country and become emperor, you also have the courage to be astonishing. Not everyone can be the king of a country.
It can be done!”
How did this guy know that I wanted to raise an army to rebel against the Liao Dynasty!? Gao Yongchang secretly gestured and ordered his men to wait for the right moment and prepare to shoot Xiao Tang with a cold arrow. He originally wanted to kill you to provoke a dispute between the Liao Kingdom and the birth of a girl. Now,
Now that you know the big thing I'm secretly planning, I can't spare your life!
Gao Yongchang's face became more vicious and gloomy, and he suddenly laughed ferociously: "Mr. Xiao, you are so lucky. Didn't you survive the ambush of three or two thousand horse thieves? But now I have three hundred horsemen and one shot.
Do you still hope to escape again here?"
"Brother, forget it! This Lord Xiaotang captured me and promised not to report this matter to the Liao government, and there will be no further investigation of the past." Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene was getting tense, Sai Hong hurriedly advised her.
: "There are traitors in the Liao Dynasty who are wielding power and blocking the way for good people. Even if we don't deliberately provoke disputes between the government and the army and the Jurchen tribes, I still have a chance to regain the motherland and revive the power of our Bohai Kingdom."
"Shut up!" Gao Yongchang's expression was full of resentment. He glared at Sai Hongfu fiercely and cursed bitterly: "Okay, you bitch, how dare you betray me! You deserve to be said to be me.
Bohai people!?"
Gao Yongchang didn't know that Xiao Tang only knew about his intention to rebel against Liao and proclaim himself emperor through the records of later generations. Seeing Sai Hongfu walking with Xiao Tang and interceding for Xiao Tang, the thought that popped into Gao Yongchang's mind was
Sai Hongfu revealed to Xiao Tang his plan to raise an army and become independent. At this point, Gao Yongchang wanted to cut Sai Hongfu Lingchi into pieces because he could not hear even a single word from her.
Sai Hongfu was suddenly startled. She and Gao Yongchang were both descendants of the Bohai noble family Gao, but their relationship was not very close. It was only in order to restore the power of the Bohai Kingdom that Sai Hongfu was willing to help her distant brother. In the past, Gao Yongchang had a request.
She was always polite and polite to her, but in front of her, Sai Hongfu was suddenly scolded by Gao Yongchang. She was dumbfounded for a moment and forgot how to defend herself.
The anger on Gao Yongchang's face rose sharply. He raised his hand suddenly and ordered decisively: "Fire arrows!!! Kill all these people!"
But before he could finish his words, an arrow was shot directly in front of him! Gao Yongchang was startled, and he subconsciously turned his head to hide, and the arrow immediately pierced the throat of the person behind him.
!
Yan Qing, Xu Guanzhong, Shi Jin and others also got Xiao Tang's hint early. They quickly got on their horses, and several war horses neighed and galloped straight to the north.
Xiao Tang's figure was also shot out like an arrow from the string. He grabbed Sai Hongfu who was stunned. After the two saddled up, they immediately turned their horses and ran out! At the same moment as the war horses rushed out, they were already
There are dozens of feather arrows nailed to the ground!
Xiao Tang fiercely waved the reins and spurred the horse to gallop. Sai Hongfu sat behind him without saying a word, but held the horse's belly tightly with his legs. Behind him, the furious Gao Yongchang led the Bohai Navy and also rode out, with more than three hundred riders like him.
Followed like a long dragon!
He didn't know how far he had run, but Xiao Tang still heard the rumble of horse hooves behind him. Gao Yongchang's soldiers were chasing after them with their bows and arrows. Suddenly Xiao Tang heard another muffled grunt, and when he looked back
At that moment, Sai Hongfu's beautiful eyebrows were frowning, her expression was very painful, and there were two arrows stuck in her back that were trembling non-stop.
Xiao Tang frowned, and with more than 300 Bohai cavalry behind him, he shot and killed a few of them and wouldn't let go. He still had to worry about the cold arrows shot from behind. It was not an option to keep running away on the empty snowfield.
What's more, the war horse under Xiao Tang's crotch has already been panting for a long time, and its physical strength is gradually declining. This horse has been galloping for a long time carrying Xiao Tang and Sai Hongfu. Sooner or later, it will be beaten by the horse archer behind it who is also skilled in horse arching.
Bohai elite soldiers caught up.
At this moment, Xiao Tang vaguely saw a dense forest in front of him, and looking back were mountains. The mountain roads were rugged and the forests were densely covered, so the opponent's galloping horses could not do much good. Moreover, in the mountains and forests,
A place with some shelter is far safer than being exposed to the fire of more than three hundred cavalry bows and arrows.
"Let's go up the mountain!" Xiao Tang shouted loudly to Yan Qing, Xu Guanzhong and other brothers. When everyone rushed to the corner of the mountain, Xiao Tang immediately turned over and dismounted. He then grabbed Sai Hongfu's slender waist and carried her down.
Behind him, Gao Yongchang and his close associates of the Bohai Navy arrived in an instant. Xiao Tang and his five confidants immediately ran up the slope towards the dense forest of the valley!
The sound of "grab, snatch, snatch, snatch!" could be heard endlessly as arrows were driven into the dead wood. Xiao Tang held Sai Hongfu in his arms and galloped around in the snow forest. Suddenly, he threw away the Bohai navy who had just dismounted and climbed the mountain a few dozen paces away.
The team of elite soldiers brought out by Gao Yongchang were all elites he personally selected from the Bohai people. Although he had heard that Xiao Tang was excellent in martial arts, he asked himself that it was absolutely impossible to win with just six or seven of them.
He has these three hundred warriors under his command.
Gao Yongchang watched helplessly as Xiao Tang and others fled into the mountains, the ferocious look on his face became more and more fierce. He pulled out the steel knife from his waist and roared at the top of his lungs: "Chase! Chase me! Kill Xiao Tang!"
Hey, there’s that bitch too! We can’t let them escape!”
