Chapter 560 Surrounding
All the gates on all sides of Ruzhou City were besieged. In the evening, Fourteenth ordered the withdrawal of soldiers and horses from the three sides, west and north, and all retreated outside the south gate.

However, he did not retreat twenty miles back as Song Zhanxin said.

The general guarding the city went up to the wall and shouted: "Everyone retreats twenty miles away, otherwise what you will see will be the heads of the people in this city!"

Xie Sheng from the Fourteenth faction had a tug at them before the formation, showing them a kind of anger and helplessness that they were unwilling to retreat but had to retreat. Xie Sheng easily completed the task.

In the middle of the night, when the scouts reported that Shisi's team had withdrawn ten miles away, the two gates in the northwest of Ruzhou City opened wide, and 5000 soldiers took [-] hostages and left the city one after another.

But not long after leaving the city, scouts came to report: "My lord, they are catching up!"

"How could it be so fast?" Song Zhan was shocked, "Order the three armies to speed up!"

He appointed another general: "I will give you five thousand soldiers and horses, and all the hostages will be left to you. If they dare to advance, they will kill the hostages!"

So the 5000 people were divided into two groups, 5000 soldiers and horses went first, and the remaining [-] soldiers and horses took [-] hostages to break up.

……

Xie Sheng and the other three caught up with the 1 people behind them at dawn.

The leader of the army gave up his escape and pushed 5000 hostages to the front of the battle.If the soldiers and horses of Henan Province dared to advance, he ordered to kill the hostages first.

"You fucking don't fall into my hands, I will tear you apart!" Xie Sheng scolded angrily, "You son of a bitch, a bastard handed over by a donkey and a horse. Even the animal way doesn’t necessarily want your scum.”

Xie Sheng output a meal, and the general who looked like a villain with confidence changed his face: "Shut up! If you dare to say one more word, I will kill them!"

Tong Yang and Zhong Yanqing cast admiring glances at Xie Sheng at the same time.

"Why, I dare not hit you, and I can't scold you grandpa and me, so I can only be angry, right? Grandpa loves to see you incompetent and angry, so show me more."

"Kill them for me!"

"Wait a minute!"

Tong Yang said at the right time: "You and I are both citizens of the Dali Dynasty. We fight each other and kill each other. If you give up resistance immediately, I can keep you innocent. If you resist stubbornly, what will happen to the rebels? I think You don't need me to tell you."

"Princess also knows that everything was ordered by Song Zhan, and you were only coerced by him. He fled to Luozhou with his team, but only left you 5000 people to help him. Think about your situation, even if you have The hostages are in hand, but we have dozens of times more people than you, can you escape?"

"And all the soldiers, do you also want to be a traitor like Song Zhan? Why did you join the army in the first place? In order to become the victim of other people's rebellion one day, and even your family members will be sent to the guillotine with you?"

"Shut up! Shut up!" Tong Yang's words were so bewitching that the general on the opposite side couldn't help being anxious, and commanded his subordinates to say, "Kill a group first, so as to scare others!"

"Ah! Forgive me! I don't want to die, I don't want to die!" There was a burst of begging for mercy.

Seeing the soldiers raise their swords, Tong Yang, Zhong Yanqing and Xie Sheng shouted: "Stop!"

"Kill me!"

At the critical moment, a small soldier in the Ruzhou Army suddenly jumped up. He was dressed in red armor, like a hunting eagle with wings spread, and rushed towards the person who gave the order.

What he was holding was a uniformly issued knife from the army, which was not considered a first-class weapon.But he only waved the knife lightly in his hand, and the terrified expression of the patient froze on his face.

A head with a helmet rolled off the leader's neck, and his body was like a container whose lid was removed, with blood gushing out like a gush.After the head fell to the ground, the body on the horse also fell to the side.

"boom."

Kicks up a cloud of dust on the dry ground.

"The rebels have already been executed, and you should quickly disarm and surrender to avoid capital punishment!"

The soldiers in Ruzhou didn't know what happened, and when they looked over again, their general was already decapitated.

"Surrender quickly! Put down your weapons!"

Starting from the nearest group of people, five thousand soldiers and horses quickly put down the weapons in their hands, and squatted on the ground together with the hostages, hugging their heads.

After they squatted down, the three standing people appeared, Qi Lecheng, Gu Lin, and Xiao Yan who had made a disguise.

"A Cheng! Ah Lin!"

"Brother Tong Yang!" Qi Lecheng and Gu Lin waved at Tong Yang together.

Tong Yang turned down from the horse: "Why are you here?"

"Who is this?" He looked at Xiao Yan, feeling familiar, but couldn't remember who it was.

"Brother Tong Yang, it's me."

"Ayan?"

"Sir?"

Tong Yang was surprised, Zhong Yanqing and Xie Sheng were even more surprised.

I saw the young man standing in front of him with dark complexion, sparse eyebrows, and barely regular facial features. He couldn't think of Xiao Yan, who usually had delicate hair.

"23 helped me change my appearance." Xiao Yan simply explained, "We saw that they had captured a lot of people, so we sneaked into their team and followed us all the way."

It turned out to be the case.

Zhong Yanqing and Xie Sheng had only heard that there are some talented people in the Jianghu who know all kinds of magical skills, and the disguise technique is one of them.But neither of them had much chance to deal with people in the Jianghu. This was the first time they saw the rumored disguise technique with their own eyes.

Under the concubine's hands, it really is hidden dragons and crouching tigers.

"Send the people home first." Xiao Yan said, "These people will also be escorted back to Ruzhou together, waiting for father and mother to deal with them."

"Yes, son."

The three quickly agreed that Zhong Yanqing would lead the team to send the hostages and soldiers back to Ruzhou City, while Tong Yang and Xie Sheng would continue to lead the troops to chase.

Xiao Yan and the other three also followed the team forward.

"Ayan, is the prince still in the city?" Tong Yang asked.

"Should still be there." Xiao Yan asked back, "Where's mother? Did you go to the city to find your father?"

"should be."

Xie Sheng sat quietly on the horse, he was still thinking about the scene when Xiao Yan cut off the general's head with a single knife.

Shizi is only 15 years old this year.And when he joined the army at the age of 17, he killed someone on the battlefield for the first time. After returning home, he had nightmares for half a month, and trembled when he encountered a knife hand.

It has nothing to do with the level of kung fu, just judging by his calmness when killing people, it is obvious that he is already a veteran.

The 14-year-old Xiao Yan can draw a heavy bow weighing more than a hundred catties. Xie Sheng only admires his extraordinary talent.But 15-year-old Xiao Yan can chop off a person's head without blinking, which has nothing to do with talent.

How old has he been killing people?

And he's never been on the battlefield.

The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and I couldn't help but tremble.

How did the princess raise her children?

……

From Ruzhou to Luozhou, the fastest route goes through the valley mentioned in Shishishi.Besides that road, there is another official road.After leaving Ruzhou City, you need to go west first, then go north, circle a semicircle from the north, and then go south to reach Luozhou.

This road is flat, although it is farther, but it is often the choice of caravans.

Fourteen and Zuo Qiuyue rode their horses all the way with Yinzhu and others, and at dusk of the third day, they caught up with Song Zhan and his party.

He only brought a team of personal soldiers, plus him a total of nine people, all dressed as merchants.

"You really went this way." Fourteen controlled the rein and turned the horse around, "Song Zhan, there is a saying that cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness, and it is just right for you."
