Chapter 422 The Third Young Master Serves
Kouqiubuhua was getting nervous at this time. The Shenwei Army had already occupied Suqian and surrounded Suzhou. The two teams of Jiang Hai and Zhou Ping were meeting each other. It was only a matter of time before they took over Suzhou.
This guy was originally the main general stationed in Suzhou. Now he ran to Dachuan and lost Suzhou, and even got himself into trouble.
After much deliberation, he decided that it was impossible to defeat Zhao Yulin, and that returning to Suzhou might be able to help the defenders to save the city.
After he figured it out, he immediately deployed a retreat, leaving behind 5,000 Han soldiers and the rebel general Wang Yinlun to cover their retreat.
This was because Kouqiu Buhua had abandoned Wang Yinlun and the remaining rebels he brought with him. Wang Yinlun was very angry but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He silently cursed Kouqiu's ancestors eighteen times and went out of the tent to prepare to snipe the Shenwei Army.
However, Yu Jie was deploying the attack. When the red cannons, catapults and mortars of the Shenwei Army once again fired fiercely at Dachuan and the 27 hot air balloons of the Shenwei Army's air force took off, the Mongolian army opened the east gate and fled away while resisting.
Yu Jie was even more excited when he received the report of the Mongolian army's escape, and immediately ordered a pursuit. In fact, Cao Youliang had already seized the opportunity and followed the air force's bombing all the way.
It would have been miserable if he hadn't spoken so eloquently. He had originally planned to retreat, but encountered the Shenwei Army's air force bombing in the sky, and Cao Youliang's infantry following in pursuit. The soldiers panicked and lost their morale, so they just wanted to escape.
In the afternoon, Zhao Yulin entered Dachuan Town easily.
In fact, rather than calling this place Dachuan Town, it is better to call it Dachuan Village. This was a military garrison built during the rule of the Jin Dynasty.
Zhao Yulin entered the central army tent, and Cao Youliang happily told him that the defeat was like a landslide, and the Mongolian army had lost its morale and could not organize a decent resistance. The guy with the main force and confidants ran in the front, completely abandoning the Han army. He wanted to go to the front to supervise the battle and chase them all the way to Suzhou.
Zhao Yulin told Cao Youliang to be careful and then let him go.
The Song army hated these Han soldiers the most. They were all Han people, and when a fight broke out, they would sharpen their swords and use them to hit their compatriots.
However, in Zhao Yulin's view, this was called each serving their own master. They had already declared that the Mongol Empire was composed entirely of Mongolian troops, but their masters looked down on these people and organized them into separate armies to fight.
War is a battle between two armies. Where is the blood relationship? It is a life-and-death struggle until one side raises his hands and surrenders and lies flat on the ground.
Yu Jie guiltily reported to him that several thousand rebels had been dispersed, and a small captain named Sun Youcai had returned with his brothers who had rebelled and killed Wang Yinlun.
Zhao Yulin was very happy, because it meant that not all the rebels followed Wang Yinlun. He wanted to go and see his brothers who had returned.
Yu Jie led Zhao Yulin to the stable on the west side. He saw hundreds of people being detained there. A thin man in the lead immediately shouted: The third young master is here.
Third Young Master, we didn't shoot arrows at our own people, we are innocent.
Zhao Yulin immediately waved his hand and said to Yu Jie that he believed that the brothers below were wholeheartedly following our Shenwei Army, and asked Yu Jie not to treat the returning brothers in this way.
Zhao Yulin walked among them and said: "It's good that you're back. We are good brothers now. Let's recover our land and rebuild the Han and Tang dynasties together."
He patted Sun Youcai on the shoulder and asked: Are you willing to be his guard? If you are willing, just join his guard.
Youcai looked at him in surprise and was speechless.
Yu Jie hesitated and asked him how to do it?
Zhao Yulin asked him why he couldn't do it?
The soldiers on the left and right shouted, "Yes, yes. We will follow the Third Young Master till death."
Zhao Yulin was overjoyed. Some time ago, Chu Yuxuan took a group of brothers away, so it was just right to fill in here. He smiled and thanked them, and asked Ke Zhenxie and Sun Youcai to preside over the meeting. The brothers recommended fairly, and everyone would be counted.
In Suzhou, Kouxibuhua led the retreating remnants into the city. Strictly speaking, he was not able to get in because of his high martial arts skills, but the Shenwei Army let him in out of the city.
The purpose of letting him in is to better eliminate him.
After Yu Jie dealt with Dachuan's urgent affairs, he also had to command from the front, and kept Zhao Yulin in Dachuan to stay in the rear, never letting him take risks again.
He understood his brothers' feelings and temporarily stayed in Dachuan.
This is enough to keep Ke Zhenxie busy.
Zhao Yulin had instructed his guards that whenever they settled down in a place, they must fully understand the defense of that place. This is the front line, the war zone, and they may be attacked by the enemy at any time.
He wanted to train the brothers around him. These guards were selected from hundreds of thousands. Zhao Yulin wanted to train them and let them take on important responsibilities in the future.
Sun Youcai and several other brothers who were good at military affairs were fortunate enough to be Zhao Yulin's guards. He also asked Youcai to be the team leader of a team. Although his position did not change, it was no different from that of a team leader in a combat unit. If he was released in the future, he would definitely be promoted quickly.
When Hu Lan arrived in Yingzhou and learned that Zhao Yulin had gone to Dachuan, she wanted to go there immediately. However, the escorting captain refused to agree and told her that there was a fierce battle in Dachuan and if any enemy commandos appeared, they would not be able to guarantee the safety of the young lady with such a small number of people. It would be better for them to wait patiently for the third young master to return.
Hu Lan had been walking in a hurry and felt uncomfortable all over. Only after the team leader called her "little madam" did she feel a little better.
She stayed in Yingzhou for ten days. The longer she stayed, the more anxious she became, and the more she wanted to see Zhao Yulin.
Now, after the victory report came in from Dachuan, she proposed to go there again. The garrison troops could not stop her and asked her to go with the grain transport team.
The team walked and stopped along the way and arrived at the Guandi Temple, which was less than ten miles away from the river. Suddenly, a large number of arrows were shot out from the dense woods on both sides, and the guards of the grain transport team immediately organized resistance on the spot.
However, the enemy's archery skills were superb and they were in the dark. People kept falling down, but not many enemies were killed.
This group of bandits surrounded Hu Lan and the grain transport team, and drove them step by step into the Guandi Temple to kill them all.
Outside the Guandi Temple, the bandits had already set fire to the grain trucks.
The squad leader who escorted Hulan and Hulan's lame guard Barter desperately stood in front of Hulan. Seeing the thick smoke outside, they said that this group of people were just a bunch of desperate criminals. There was a big river less than ten miles away from here. They were demonstrating to our Shenwei Army.
The bandits continued to besiege the Guandi Temple. There were less than ten guards left. They had used up all their grenades and other firearms long ago. They only had a few arrows left to shoot at the bandits. They were soon attacked by this group of desperate criminals.
The team leader and Bater protected Hulan and retreated to the statue of Guan Erye. There was no way to retreat.
A group of bandits came up and kicked the injured Bater and the captain of the guard to the side, and spoke bird language that the Han people could not understand in front of them unscrupulously, which frightened Hulan and Bater.
It turned out that these wolves dressed in Han Chinese clothes spoke Mongolian and were all Mongolian warriors. One of the wretched men standing in the front even stretched out his dirty hands to touch Hu Lan's pretty face.
Hulan rushed forward and slapped the guy in the face. Then he started to curse loudly in Mongolian. He then pulled out the golden dagger from his body, grasped the tip of the knife, and showed the golden tiger head on the handle, and shouted: "Get lost."
The guy immediately took two steps back in fright.
Now it was the Mongolian soldiers' turn to be stunned. They immediately took two steps back and looked at Hulan .
A man who looked like a leader came forward and carefully examined the dagger in Hulan's hand, and said with difficulty that this was the little princess Hulan and she must not be disrespectful.
The leader had already confirmed that the dagger in Hulan's hand was the token of the prince and princess of the Ture family. After listening to Barter's story about how he had escorted the princess to the Central Plains, he began to trust Hulan, waving his hand to leave.
However, their carefree had exposed their identities, and they even casually said where they were going next. Because they were determined to kill Bart and the two male soldiers with the squad leader, they played Hu Lan and then killed them to silence them.
A Mongolian soldier went up and asked the leader: Are you leaving just like this?
Our identities have been exposed, what should we do?
The guy hesitated. Yes, what if his identity is exposed?
He was thinking: Why not just go all out and kill everyone? A warrior nearby made a gesture of touching his neck, muttering that he wanted to take Hulan away, and killed the two male soldiers.
Hu Lan saw it clearly and heard it clearly. Her eyes were wide open with anger, and she raised the dagger across her neck and said that she would not live if anyone dared to kill her. One of them would definitely tell her brother who killed her.
After the girl finished speaking, she rubbed the dagger on her neck to test the knife, and blood came out immediately.
The man quickly stepped back, and as he did so he told the princess to put it down so that he could discuss something.
Hulan yelled, "Get out, get out as far as you can, and don't tell anyone she's here." A stalemate broke out in the hall, and the leader called his men back two steps to discuss countermeasures.
Before the result was known, the sound of arrows breaking through the air could be heard from afar, followed by continuous whistles. The guys didn't bother to deal with Hu Lan and the others, and ran out in a flash.
Behind, the sound of horse hooves like frying beans came from far away, and the sound of chopping and killing quickly came from outside the gate.
After a while, Zhao Yulin's guard captain Ke Zhenxie walked into the temple. The guard captain immediately asked who the visitor was. They were the Jiankang garrison troops escorting Lady Hulan.
When Ke Zhenxie heard Hu Lan coming, he immediately went forward to look.
Bart said that the lady's neck was injured and she needed help quickly.
After confirming that the three were all fine, Ke Zhenxie immediately sent some men to escort Hu Lan to Dachuan, and he led his men to chase after them, determined to eliminate these bandits.
As you may have noticed, these Mongolian soldiers acting as bandits were the few remaining suicide squads trained by Hubli himself. They were sent to Dachuan by Kouxiubuhua to carry out assassinations and sabotage activities behind enemy lines.
The guards sent Hu Lan to Dachuan Town. After receiving the report, Zhao Yulin went over to check. The little girl had bandages wrapped around her neck and her right palm. When she saw Zhao Yulin, she burst into tears and vowed to kill those bandits and go settle accounts with her brother Hu Bili.
