The official road under their feet is actually the Qinzhi Road, which extends all the way to the Hetao Plain. After thousands of years of ups and downs, the dirt road is still barren of grass. However, it has been crushed by countless vehicles passing by for thousands of years. There are a few deep wheel tracks, making the road The car was bumpy and the walking was slow.
Not long after we went down the mountain, it became dark. The motorcade was rushing on its way. Everyone's heart was heavy and no one spoke.
Manager Yu kept standing up and looking around, with a very nervous expression on his face.
Guo Song simply lay down. The goods under him were very soft and were in long rolls. They should be transporting silk cloth or the like.
Guo Song chewed a grass root in his mouth and stared blankly at the night sky.
There is not a cloud in the sky, and a thin crescent moon hangs above the dense forest on the mountain top. The deep night is as smooth as velvet, and the stars in the sky are like gems on velvet. A star river stretches across the sky, which is particularly bright and mysterious.
The sky full of stars made Guo Song fall into deep thought. For ten years, he had been searching for his origin in the stars. He always believed that he was brought by a meteor from the deep space of the universe hundreds of millions of miles away.
Whenever he looked at the stars in the distance, he always missed his wife and daughter in another life deeply. He wondered how they would feel about their husband and father who died young in middle age. How would they survive the long years to come?
Thinking of this, Guo Song will feel an uncontrollable pain in his heart. For ten years, this longing for his relatives has never weakened, and he cannot tell others, but can only hide it in his heart that no one can reach. deep.
Guo Song suddenly heard something and sat up immediately.
Manager Yu was startled and asked in a trembling voice: "Did you...did you discover something?"
Guo Song nodded and continued to listen attentively. Not long after, the quiet night was shattered by the sound of horse hoofbeats. Manager Yu also heard it, and his face turned pale.
"Could it be a pedestrian passing by?"
"no!"
Guo Song slowly shook his head, "The cavalry is coming!
The hoofbeats of war horses were heavier and more powerful than the hoofbeats of civilian horses. These were ten war horses, well-trained, and the rhythm was very neat. Guo Song slowly squinted his eyes, and he saw that a small team appeared on the official road behind him. The black spot is definitely the cavalry.
The cavalry was moving at a very fast pace, chasing towards us like lightning.
Manager Yu suddenly shouted in a hoarse voice, "Quick! Let's go!"
The cart riders were all panicked and whipped the donkey as hard as they could, but no matter how fast the donkey cart was, it couldn't outrun the cavalry behind it.
The cavalry chased them closer and closer, and Guo Song saw clearly that they were ten cavalrymen, each holding a spear in his hand. He didn't know if they were party cavalry, but they were coming with bad intentions.
It was too late, Guo Song sighed and said to everyone: "They are catching up, abandon the car and run for your life!"
The cart drivers all had experience. They jumped off the donkey cart and ran towards the grassland on the side of the road. There was a forest in the distance.
"I can't leave the goods!" Manager Yu shouted in horror.
"It's important to save your life first!"
Guo Song grabbed his arm and jumped out of the donkey cart. He landed firmly, but Manager Yu made a few somersaults and fell into the grass.
Guo Song pulled him up and ran deep into the grass, and soon hid behind a big rock, about forty steps away from the official road.
At this time, ten party cavalrymen had caught up with the donkey cart. They found that the cart was covered with silk and satin, and they shouted loudly with excitement.
The Dangxiang cavalry is not the Xixia cavalry of the Song Dynasty. The current Dangxiang people are still a nomadic people attached to the Tang Dynasty, living in the Yinzhou and Xiazhou areas. The Anshi Rebellion caused the decline of the Tang Dynasty, and the Dangxiang people also began to have the ambition to stand on their own.
They did not dare to rebel openly, but they began to organize cavalry to rob people and businessmen everywhere, not only to make money, but also to create panic and drive away the Han people living in this area.
This ten-man cavalry team is just a standard raiding team.
The party cavalry drove the donkey cart away, and Manager Yu suddenly burst into tears, "I've lost all my money and I can't afford it! There are old people and children at home, what should I do?"
"I can't blame you for this. It's normal to encounter military disasters. The coachmen will all testify to the uncle." Guo Song comforted Manager Yu in a low voice.
Manager Yu almost collapsed. He sat on the ground and said with tears on his face: "Half of the goods here belong to me. I borrowed 200 yuan at a high interest rate of 5% per month! I originally wanted to make some money to treat my children.
, what should I do now...what should I do now? What should I do with my child!"
Guo Song touched half of the noodle cake in his arms that he was reluctant to eat. His kindness was repaid by a spring. Guo Song has always been a person who knows how to repay kindness. With this piece of noodle cake, he also wanted to help.
This Yu is in charge once.
He handed his cloth bag and water hyacinth to Manager Yu, "Uncle, help me get them. I'll go get the donkey cart back."
Manager Yu was horrified and waved his hands quickly, "You can't go, they kill without blinking an eye."
Guo Song stuffed something into him and jumped towards the donkey cart. He was as fast as lightning and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Manager Yu was stunned, this little Taoist's martial arts was so strong!
Suddenly a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.
……….
Guo Song had already passed the donkey cart, and there was a large pine tree several feet high on the roadside not far ahead. He was squatting on the tree and waiting quietly for the prey to arrive.
Guo Song put on his middle finger the iron ring given to him by his third senior brother. There was a half-inch long iron thorn on the iron ring, which was a kind of hidden weapon. He slowly pulled out the iron wood sword from his back.
Guo Song had seen the bloodshed in the Hexi Corridor, and he had already passed the level of murder.
He was as calm as water at this time and had no pressure. Ten years of hard training allowed him to develop his own shooting style.
He pays attention to being steady, accurate and ruthless when using his sword, and does not strike easily, but once he strikes, the opponent will definitely die.
As the cavalry approached step by step, Guo Song hugged the big tree and slid down silently, trying to find the best position to attack.
The cavalry and the convoy finally passed under the big pine tree...
Although there is no driver, there are five cavalrymen on each side of the convoy, controlling the donkey convoy moving forward.
"Commander, give us some of these silks and satins! If you send them back, we won't have a share."
"Shut up! Haven't you made enough in the past two years? These properties belong to the big leader, no one dares to touch them."
A group of cavalrymen cursed and didn't notice the two cold eyes above their heads.
Guo Song's eyes were fixed on the last two cavalrymen, who were walking side by side, one on the left and one on the right.
Just when the last two people passed under the big tree, Guo Song descended from the sky like a night bird. His wooden sword was as fast as lightning and he swung it past. Although the wooden sword had no edge, its powerful strength made it indestructible.
'Crack! Click!'
The two heads were cut off abruptly and rolled to the ground. The body fell to the side, and blood spurted out from the neck cavity.
Guo Song happened to fall on the horse on the left. He grabbed the reins with his left hand and punched the horse's back hard. The iron thorns on the ring immediately pierced the horse's body. The horse was in unbearable pain, and its front hooves were raised high and slithering.
He screamed violently and rushed forward like crazy.
Before the soldiers in front could react, the heavy wooden sword swept across them, beating two more soldiers until their brains burst, and they fell off their horses and died miserably.
The war horse galloped past, and Guo Song immediately dodged and hid on the other side of the war horse.
The copy commander who was walking at the front was shocked and angry. In the darkness, he didn't see clearly that Guo Song was hurting anyone, but he only saw a crazy horse galloping towards him. There was no one around him.
A soldier from behind shouted: "The enemy is on the side!"
The copy commander also discovered that there was a person hiding on the side of the galloping horse, but the other person was blocked by the horse, making him unable to take action. He had to intercept the galloping horse to deal with the bastard.
The commander did not hesitate, roared, raised his spear and thrust it at the oncoming war horse. The spear pierced the injured horse's head and killed the horse instantly. However, the spearhead was embedded in the horse's skull and was pulled forward by force.
, so that the long figure can't help but stagnate.
The moment he drew his spear, Guo Song jumped up, turned somersaults in the air, and passed behind him. He swung out his wooden sword and struck the chief's neck hard, chopping off a huge human head.
More than ten feet away, the headless body clattered to the ground.
When the other five party cavalrymen saw that the commander was killed with one move, they were so frightened that they turned their horses and fled.
Guo Song jumped on the donkey cart, jumped over five donkey carts in a row, and jumped up using his strength. He was as light as a swallow and fell just behind the last cavalryman. The party cavalryman was so frightened that he pulled out his dagger and stabbed back.
The dagger stabbed from the right, and it was difficult for Guo Song to make a move. He slammed the dagger with his knee, threw away the wooden sword, grabbed the opponent's wrist, and twisted it hard, and the wrist was immediately broken. The party cavalry screamed in pain, and his hands
His feet threw off the stirrups and he tried to fall off the horse to survive.
But Guo Song didn't give him a chance. He stretched out his arm, wrapped it around the soldier's neck and twisted it hard. 'Crack!' The neck was broken.
As soon as Guo Song let go, the body of the cavalry fell to the ground. Guo Song picked up the spear hanging on the saddle, grabbed the reins and galloped after him. After running for dozens of steps, he first caught up with the party cavalry who was carrying several bags of food. This man
The cavalryman was so frightened that he forgot to throw away the food on his horse.
Guo Song gradually caught up with the man and stabbed him with a spear. He raised the spear and dropped it. The soldier was unable to dodge and was stabbed to the core by the sharp spear tip. He screamed and turned over and fell off his horse.
Guo Song pulled out his spear, waved his arm and threw it forward. Thirty steps away, another soldier was pierced by the flying spear.
‘Ah!’ The soldier let out a long scream, and with the force of his spear, he was pulled off his horse. The cavalryman was actually nailed to the ground alive by the spear.
"Alai!"
The Dangxiang soldier who was escaping together turned around and saw his brother died tragically, his eyes were red. He stopped running away, roared, pulled out his sword, turned his horse's head and charged towards Guo Song.
"I will cut you to pieces with a thousand knives!"
The party soldiers galloped their horses and yelled like crazy.
Guo Song sneered, bent down and pulled out the sword from the waist of the corpse on the ground, clamped the horse with his legs, and the horse galloped. The two horses passed each other in an instant, and saw a human head flying up. The other's horse ran a dozen steps, and the headless corpse appeared.
Then he fell to the ground.
At this time, Guo Song reined in his horse and looked at the other two cavalrymen who were running wildly. They turned to the north and had fled far away. They could also take a detour to Xiazhou from the north and they would not come back again.
Guo Song shook his head, but it was a pity that he lacked a pair of bows and arrows, otherwise none of the ten cavalry would be able to escape.
