Mo Yu is the supervisor of Mayi City. After the construction of Mayi is almost completed, he will have nothing to do. He came to Mayi just to follow Su Ren, but Su Ren didn't call him when he was going to Yuci. Mo Yu was not angry about this.
When he came, Mo Cong made it very clear that people would not trust him. But Mo Yu still wanted to follow Su Ren. He wanted to see what Su Ren was doing in Yuci. So he followed him all the way. No one would care about him anyway.
Are you still in Mayi?
Lei was personally led to appear next to Mo Yu. Mo Yu was sitting in a grass nest eating dry food, holding pancakes in one hand and a kettle in the other. The pancakes were hard and the water in the kettle was ice. He had known for a long time that someone
It came, but he didn't move, still eating the pancake in his hand unhurriedly. Lei Qian didn't say anything, waiting for Mo Yu to swallow the last mouthful of pancake, and took another sip of water.
"Let's go, sir, let you pass."
Mo Yu stood up slowly, patted the dirt on his butt, returned the dagger to its sheath, and glanced at Lei Yu: "Go and bring my horse over. I haven't fed it properly in the past few days to get some good food.
"
Lei Ban kept staring at Mo Yu. He had never seen this young man before, but he did not dare to let down his guard at all. Su Ren said that this person is dangerous, so this person is definitely dangerous. Lei Ban was very sure of this. He nodded: "Okay.
, let’s go!”
The sun finally sets below the horizon, and the sky in the west is as red as fire and is particularly beautiful. This is the first time for Su Ren to see such a magnificent landscape. Speaking of which, he is just a country bumpkin. He has never been to the grassland or the seaside in his previous life, and even
He had never even climbed Mount Huashan in his hometown, and had never seen the sunrise or sunset. Seeing this scene, Su Ren sighed.
"Beautiful! It's so beautiful! If you could live here for a lifetime, take your children to ride horses and hunt in your free time, and rest at sunrise and sunset, how much fun would it be?"
Ying Guangji chuckled: "Then wait until one day, a group of soldiers and horses suddenly appear, kill your horses, rob your women, kill your children, and then drag you as a slave, even better!
"
"You're a born robber. I said such a good life, why do you think it's so miserable? No wonder the Qin Dynasty was destroyed. Just look at your thoughts and you'll know that you don't want others to be happy."
"What I said is the truth, okay!"
"Hey! I have nothing to say to you. I don't understand what sentiment is."
"What is sentiment? Can it be eaten or drunk? If you have such an idea, quickly find a place to live in seclusion in the mountains and old forests. Wenling is a good place to avoid harming people in the world of mortals!"
"Hahaha..." Su Ren laughed loudly: "I came out specifically to harm you, what can you do to me?"
Ying Guangji shook his head: "I can't do anything, but I guarantee you will never have the day I just mentioned!"
Su Ren smiled, said nothing more, and turned around to get off the grain truck. Lei Guan had already brought Mo Yu with him. After following him for three days, Mo Yu's face looked a little tired, and there were grass clippings and dirt on his body.
Su Ren really didn't believe that Mo Yu would betray the Mo family and join him. Not to mention that Mo Yu's surname was Mo, but the fact that Mo Yu followed the giant Mo Cong proved that Mo Yu was a key target of the Mo family's training.
He glanced at Mo Yu and said, "Come here if you want, why bother following me?"
Mo Yu said nothing. Su Ren continued: "Go and wash up first. Have a good sleep tonight. It will rain tomorrow and the road will be difficult to walk."
It started to rain in the middle of the night, but it wasn't very heavy. Su Ren slept just in time, and was awakened by Zhang Junyue's voice calling people to check the grain cart. There was a mess outside the tent, with people leading horses and packing carts, and everyone was shouting.
, as if the rain could wash them away. Su Ren was the top leader of the team, he would not come out to help in the rain, so he turned over and continued to sleep.
When Su Ren woke up again, it was daylight. It had been raining outside all night, and the camp became quiet. Raining in spring is a good time to sleep. It seems that no one wants to rush on a rainy day. Say hello, Manniu
Carrying a water bag, I entered Su Ren's tent. My whole body was soaked, and even my hair was covered with water droplets. It seemed that Man Niu strictly carried out his duties and stayed outside last night.
While washing his face, Su Ren asked: "Where is Lao Huang? Let him tell Lei Quiet and Zhang Junyue that the rain is too heavy and they will rest here today."
Man Niu hummed and carefully poured the water in the water bag onto Su Ren's hand little by little. After Su Ren finished washing his face, he brought Su Ren breakfast. After eating the breakfast, Su Ren went to bed again.
The temperature has also dropped since the rain. It’s still a bit cold just wearing a coat. I can only get warmer by getting into bed. Holding a book in my hand, listening to the sound of raindrops on the tent, eating and drinking enough is like a fairy.
days.
Just after reading a page, Ying Guangji opened the curtain and entered the tent. Seeing that Su Ren was still on the bed, Ying Guangji frowned: "What? You really don't want to leave?"
"Well! It rained all night, the roads are muddy, and we all have heavy trucks. We can't go on the road at this time."
Ying Guangji found a dry place to sit down by himself, picked up Su Ren's teapot and poured a cup of tea: "Then I guess I won't be able to leave for three to five days. Even if it is sunny in the afternoon, the ground will not be dry for two or three days."
"What are you afraid of for two or three days? The Huns don't care, so why are you worried?"
"I'm afraid of an accident! This place is not close to Mayi or Yuci. If anyone doesn't care about Yu Dan and sends a pair of people here, the two hundred of us are no match for them."
Su Ren threw down the book: "What do you want to say?"
Ying Guangji shook his head: "I don't want to say anything, I just want to remind you. Don't be blinded by the beautiful scenery of the grassland. The kind of good days you mentioned yesterday are not available everywhere."
"Someone went out last night? Whose people? Was it ours or the Huns?"
Ying Guangji smiled: "Aren't you stupid? It's the one you invited back yesterday. He went out on horseback just after it rained last night. It was almost dawn when he came back. It seemed that the road was not close. The horse that came back was not
The one he rode on when he went out."
"Where are you going? Don't tell me you didn't send someone to follow you!"
"I sent someone to follow me, but unfortunately I was abandoned by them. I only knew that I was heading west. Judging from the time, I guess it's not Yuci, but a little closer than Yuci."
Su Ren unfolded the map and studied it carefully. Yuci is basically located in the Hetao area above Chang'an. The only place closer than Yuci is Lengshan Pass. According to what Ying Guangji said, Mo Yu only spent half a day making a round trip and even changed the
Only Lengshan Pass meets the requirements. Lengshan Pass is a mountain pass, and passing through Lengshan Pass is Yuci. It can be regarded as the east gate of Yuci. If you want to go to Yuci, Lengshan Pass is a must-pass.
Su Ren didn't speak, his eyes fixed on Lengshan Pass. Lengshan Pass is also a good place for an ambush. The terrain is sandwiched between two mountains and a ditch. The mountains are not high and there are no woods. It is very suitable for cavalry charges. If someone sets an ambush there, no
It takes too much, and a hundred cavalry can kill Su Ren's two hundred guards.
After throwing away the map, Su Ren asked Manniu to call Lei Quan and Zhang Junyue. He had to make some arrangements. If someone really robbed the grain truck, it would be really troublesome.
Su Ren didn't say anything about Mo Yu going out in the middle of the night, but only told the two that someone might ambush them at Lengshan Pass. Zhang Junyue was dumbfounded when he heard this, and said quickly: "Oh, no! The Hachi tribe guarding there betrayed them a few days ago.
Your Majesty, there is no one guarding there now. If someone secretly ambushes you, Your Majesty may not know about it. I will send someone to inform Your Majesty and ask Your Majesty to send troops to respond."
Ying Guangji sneered: "It's useless, your people can't go back. With such heavy rain, people have already guessed that we will stay here. It is estimated that the people who ambush will appear around us in the afternoon at the latest. Even if you are the
It was too late for the king to send troops to rescue us."
"Then, then, what should we do?"
No one paid attention to Zhang Junyue's fear. Su Ren turned around and asked Lei Guan: "Are you sure? There shouldn't be too many soldiers sneaking in. I estimate they are about the same as us."
Lei Bei frowned and lowered his head in thought: "If the defense problem is not big, I am worried that these people's target is food and grass. Now that the food and grass are still in the car, they can be burned cleanly with just a fire, even if it rains
But if those people have kerosene, there will be no problem! Unless they hide the food, maybe they can give it a try."
The cry of an eagle was sharp and ear-piercing. Logically speaking, eagles would not come out on rainy days. Zhang Junyue was startled, with a look of horror on his face: "Here he is, he is indeed here! What should we do?"
As he was talking, Liu Jian hurried in: "Sir, the scouts discovered that a group of cavalry came five miles away, numbering about one hundred and fifty."
Lei Ban glanced at Su Ren, who nodded slightly. Lei Ban turned around and took Liu Jian out of the tent. Zhang Junyue was still circling back and forth, talking nonsense, which made the people listening upset.
Su Ren took a deep breath and said to Ying Guangji: "What can you do?"
Ying Guangji shook his head: "It seems that the food cannot be saved. There may be a chance to run away while there are still five miles left."
Zhang Junyue knelt down in front of Su Ren with a puff, with runny nose and tears: "Sir, we can't leave! This food is the king's life. Without food, many people in our tribe will starve to death. Please find a way to save us, sir."
, the villain is willing to trade this life."
Ying Guangji sneered: "You trade your life? Is your life valuable?"
Zhang Junyue stopped talking and looked at Su Ren eagerly.
Su Rendao: "Those who can't run away, if we don't kill these people, none of us will survive."
There were no flags or markings. A group of cavalry, all dressed in black, with their faces covered with black cloth, suddenly emerged from the rain and fog. Su Ren was already worried about getting wet, holding a sword in his hand.
Standing on a tall grain cart.
The cavalry stopped their horses at about 200 paces and began to form a team. There were 150 men and 150 horses without a sound. These were elites, as you can tell by looking at how they controlled the saddleless horses with only two legs.
The rainwater flowed down his forehead to his eyebrows, and dripped from his eyebrows into his eyes. Su Ren wiped the rainwater on his face with his hand and shouted: "Get ready to meet the enemy!" (To be continued)
