Chapter 273 Relief

Although Qin Fengliang explained to Qin Mao, but looking at Su Ziji who had fought side by side with him, Qin Mao couldn't help asking again.

Su Ziji didn't hide anything, because Sun Baihu was not nearby, so he said in a low voice, "Jinjikou will definitely send someone to notify Marshal Qian, but Marshal Qian's decision and reaction will take some time."

"So our department, we have to go slowly, we have to wait for Qian Shuai to send troops to rescue the imperial envoy, and then catch up."

"Otherwise, the scene will be embarrassing and even changeable."

"After all, we are bringing people there now, but we are just going through the motions. We don't really want to use 2000 people to fight the enemy chieftain head-on."

"It's not only difficult to get out of the siege if we rely on people to go directly, but also lose more troops, maybe we will be taken over by the same pot."

"It's just an attitude, and it's also a deterrent. However, if Marshal Qian is so reckless that he refuses to rescue him, 2000 people are enough for a surprise attack."

"There must be a small road near here, which can lead to the enemy chieftain. At that time, we can also launch an attack from the rear and cooperate with the imperial envoy."

But this is already a bad idea, it is too risky, if it is not a last resort, Su Ziji will not use this method.

This is no different from hitting a stone with an egg. Even if the egg is very hard and the stone is very crisp, it can be smashed with an inch of force. The price paid must be very painful. Of the 2000 people present, few people can survive.

After hearing this, Qin Mao was silent for a while, looked around, and sighed: "When I was on the boat, I still thought that although your swordsmanship and courage were commendable, you were still just a scholarly spirit."

"Now it seems that you are much better than me. If you join the army, you will definitely have a better future than me."

"No wonder my father once said that I was a waste. I thought that as long as I was strong in martial arts, I could prove myself. Now..."

"Why do you want to belittle yourself?" Su Ziji smiled lightly, implying something: "Although your father is a veteran and has strategies, you not only have the heart of a child, but also have loyalty and courage."

"As a military general, as long as he is talented in marching and fighting and given the opportunity, he can always be trained. But if people's hearts are broken, they can act treacherously, and they can be proud of themselves for a while, but they will definitely not have good results."

Qin Mao thought that Su Ziji was alluding to Qian Zhidong, and nodded: "You are right."

Seeing his innocent appearance, Su Ziji felt powerless as if a hammer had been hit on the cotton, so he couldn't ridicule him anymore.

There were more than two thousand of them, except for a few who were riding horses, the rest were infantry. Su Ziji ordered to march slowly, and when they arrived at Hungry Wolf Ridge, they could hear the shouts of killing from afar.

"Report!" The scout who went ahead had returned and reported to Su Ziji: "Marshal Qian has sent troops to rescue and is attacking the mountain!"

"Okay!" Su Ziji nodded immediately: "There is no hesitation, we will rush in immediately and rescue the imperial envoy!"

These words were directed at Qin Mao.

Qin Mao nodded immediately, waved his hand and issued an order: "Soldiers, follow us in and save the imperial envoy!"

There were more than 2000 of them. Due to the small number of people, the route they took was somewhat different from that of Qian Zhidong's army. It was faster to enter from a small road.

Therefore, although it was later, it was the first to reach the outskirts of the cottage.

"kill!"

Looking at it from a high altitude, the enemy chieftain is now divided into two forces, one is resisting Qian Zhidong, and the other is knowing that there is little hope, and is still desperately supervising the battle.

Thousands of chieftains desperately attacked a cottage at any cost, clashing with swords, guns, swords and shields. After several battles, the bandit army retreated again.

The criss-crossing enemy corpses were piled up at the foot to form a small slope, flowing blood flowed down, and the fireworks in the cottage were boiling, obviously throwing flint, and there was another scream.

In short waves of fighting, the bodies of more than 300 chieftains fell, lying all over the ground.

The enemy chief looked at the stronghold silently, saw that although the dragon flag was broken, even bloody, it was waving tenaciously, so he sighed and said: "If the imperial envoy does not surrender, can you also defeat it?"

So many people have died.

The newly retired general replied: "Yes, but if we let the Qinglong Battalion fight again, we will surely be defeated."

The enemy chief didn't speak, and lightly touched the location on the leather map, his expression a little downcast: "Oh, I don't want the imperial envoy to cut eggs even though he is a civil servant, to be so stubborn..."

Suddenly the siren sounded, and the enemy chief frowned, and then the siren sounded again and again, becoming shorter and shorter, and someone reported: "An enemy army appeared on the left, with a number of about [-]."

The enemy chief stood up at once, just watching, 2000 people, who were not considered at all at first, can be eaten by force now, but this means that the plan of quick attack has officially gone bankrupt.

"There is nothing to be done, let's retreat, let's go back to the mountains!" The enemy chief watched it for a while and immediately ordered to retreat.

"Brother, we can't withdraw. There are more than a dozen villages that are already very dissatisfied. If we withdraw again, there will be trouble again." Someone immediately persuaded.

"Can't retreat, waiting to be surrounded?" The enemy chief waved his hand, internal problems can still be resolved, if they are surrounded by Zheng Jun again, the general situation will go away.

The enemy chief made a decisive decision and immediately ordered to retreat. Hearing the order, there was the sound of bugles, and adjusted back and forth, retreating slowly, with a strict appearance.

"This person is really a hero!" Su Ziji thought to himself.

Although Qin Mao had expected that the imperial envoy would not be able to face the enemy head-on when he came to rescue the imperial envoy this time, he was still a little dumbfounded that he had rescued the imperial envoy without a fight.

The most important thing is that they came late, but they took the lead and let Qian Zhidong know, wouldn't they be angry?

Thinking of Qian Zhidong being unhappy, Qin Mao became happy.

Su Ziji didn't go to see this person, he urged his horse to go forward, and found that almost all of the soldiers trapped in this stronghold had knife wounds and arrow holes, and were covered in blood, but they didn't dare to relax at all, preparing for the last fight , Presumably before the rescue, the enemy chieftain planned to capture the imperial envoy alive and charged several times.

But the number of people brought by the imperial envoy was not too small. Although it was far less than the number of enemy chieftains, they were trapped in the stronghold, but it also added an extra layer of defense.

This was delayed until the arrival of reinforcements.

"Please inform me that Su Ziji's rescue is late and he wants to see the two imperial envoys!" Su Ziji got off his horse and said.

Most of these people knew Su Ziji and knew that they were Tai students who were left in the camp, but unexpectedly, they were the first batch of rescuers.

While being grateful in my heart, I immediately informed Su Ziji, and soon, someone came out and invited Su Ziji to come in.

Su Ziji glanced at Qin Mao: "Brother Qin, wait a moment."

Qin Mao was not in a hurry, this time he was able to share the work together, and he was already in a complicated mood, so he nodded.

Su Ziji went inside, and saw that there were many corpses in the village, and some grain carts were smashed by the stones outside, and the bags of grain were soaked in blood.

Going in again, I saw a hall, and there were soldiers standing on both sides of the hall, Su Ziji calmed down, and shouted: "Student, please see Su Ziji!"

The hall was silent for a while, only to hear Cui Zhaoquan's slightly hoarse voice: "Come in!"

"Yes!" Su Ziji agreed, and entered inside, Cui Zhaoquan was in the middle, Supervisor Zhao sat on the left, Su Ziji hurriedly saluted, both of them raised their hands to greet each other.

"Su Jieyuan, are you bringing the troops of the Qin army to rescue? Where is Qin Fengliang?" Cui Zhaoquan asked immediately without talking nonsense.

Su Ziji replied: "General Qin, you are now in Jinjikou."

Then he told the two about the fact that they won Jinjikou. As for the intention, there is no need to analyze it.

"Hmph!" The two imperial envoys showed a hint of coldness, obviously very dissatisfied with Qian Zhidong.

But he didn't say anything in front of Su Ziji. Superintendent Zhao said to Su Ziji: "You did a good job this time. By the way, Shao Sisen, an imperial student who accompanied you in the army, was shot by an arrow. In the house not far away, do you want to take a look?"

Su Ziji was a little surprised by the fact that Shao Sisen was injured. Knowing that the two of them wanted to distract him from asking others, he said wittily, "Brother Shao was injured? I'll go visit right now!"

"Take Su Juren over there." Superintendent Zhao appointed someone to take Su Ziji there, and when Su Ziji went out, Cui Zhaoquan immediately ordered coldly, "Go and call Qin Mao in."

"You go out too and let Sun Baihu come in. We have something to ask." Superintendent Zhao's face was green and pale, and he bit his lip as he gave instructions.
