Back to Datang with weapons

Chapter 170 Exposed and Captured
Under the leadership of Guo Jing, more than a hundred cavalrymen headed towards the northwest at lightning speed. Sure enough, Guo Jing saw a very shocking scene two kilometers away from them!
At this moment, they were on top of a small high hill, looking around, there was a large group of soldiers and horses under the high hill!He roughly estimated that this group of soldiers and horses numbered no less than 5000!
You know, the defenders in Liangzhou City are only more than 1000 people at full count. The situation in Liangzhou City is similar to them, and the strength of troops will naturally not exceed [-]. So where did such a large force come from?
"Red Wolf Flag!"

At this moment, a lieutenant behind Guo Jing let out a low cry.

Guo Jing took a closer look, and took a "hissy" breath of air!That's right, it's the red wolf flag!

He has fought with Xiliang for many years, so he naturally knows a lot of Xiliang's rules. For example, there are three kinds of battle flags in the Xiliang army, which are divided into black wolf flag, red wolf flag and green wolf flag.

The green wolf flag is the most common. Green represents the vast grassland on the land of Xiliang, and the black wolf on the grassland is the totem of Xiliang, so this green wolf flag is the most common battle flag equipped by the Xiliang army. Of course, The green wolf flag is also divided into three sizes: large, medium and small, respectively indicating the formation and strength of the army.

The Black Wolf Banner is the exclusive battle flag of the most powerful army in Xiliang. The Black Wolf Banner army is also known as the "Army of the Son of Heaven". It is an army commanded by the Emperor of Xiliang himself. Liang Tian, ​​Emperor Liang, was old and rarely led troops to fight again, so this Black Wolf Banner was very rare.

And now the red wolf flag is the flag of the prince, but he doesn't know which of the three princes of Xiliang is leading the army. He has heard that among the three princes, the first prince Liang Qianjun is brave and resourceful, and the second prince Liang Qianrong He works in politics and seldom fights, but the third prince Liang Qianwu is good at fighting.

I hope it is the soldiers led by Liang Qianrong!

Guo Jing thought this way, because Zheng Zhijing, the defender of Liangzhou, belonged to Liang Qianrong, so every time he attacked Liangzhou, there was thunder and rain, and this must have something to do with Liang Qianrong's instruction!

Although he didn't know why the prince's army came here, Guo Jing had a very bad feeling in his heart, and he only hoped that it was Liang Qianrong who came...

"Who is there!"

Suddenly, there was a shout from their side, and when they turned their heads, it was a scout from the Xiliang Army standing there on horseback. After discovering the Tang army uniforms on them, he shouted loudly, and then blew the horn in his hand !

"Woo-woo-woo!"

The trumpets sounded regularly with intervals. Anyone who was a soldier could hear that this was the most common warning call in the army. It was used to remind one's own army that there was an enemy situation!

Sure enough, when the trumpet sounded, all the Xiliang soldiers under the high hills picked up their weapons and looked up. After seeing Guo Jing and the others, they immediately drew out their weapons!

Guo Jing thought it was wrong, put an arrow into the bow, and shot towards the scout in response.

Because the distance was too close, the scout didn't dare to be careless, he just fell off the horse and rolled down the hill...

"go!"

Guo Jing yelled, stepped on the stirrups with both feet, and galloped away. The others didn't hesitate when they saw this, they turned around and followed...

And Liang Qianwu under Gaoqiu had already walked out of the tent. He rushed from Shangjing to Liangzhou overnight, and arrived here in the morning, so he camped and rested for a long time.

He heard the horn sound in the tent, and asked directly after he came out, "What's going on?"

"Report to the third prince, just now our scouts found a group of Xiliang cavalry who were only a hundred meters away from us, and seemed to be observing us!"

"Oh?"

Liang Qianwu's complexion was not good, this time his action was covert, in order to make a surprise attack and kill him with one blow!He had to win Liangzhou, so as to be a bargaining chip for the next fight for the throne!
If these cavalrymen are allowed to go back to report the news and the Liangzhou defenders take precautions in advance, it will be disadvantageous for him to attack the city!

"Send someone to take them down!"

"Yes!"

So, a large group of Xiliang cavalry went into battle lightly, and chased in the direction where Guo Jing and the others were fleeing...

…………

Guo Jing is a bit regretful now. He regrets that he should have retreated quickly after observing the enemy's behavior. After all, they are only here to gather information and act as scouts, not to fight!
The most important thing scouts should abide by is to find out the news quickly and accurately, don't stay for a long time, and don't fight head-on!
But today he made a mistake, and the consequences may be serious!

Although the soldiers he led this time were all excellent, and the horses were also carefully selected, but they had been out for a few days after all, no matter whether they were men or horses, they didn't have enough rest, and no matter how good their horses were, how could they be better than Xiliang? What about the war horses that gallop on the grassland every day?
So after running for a while, the Xiliang cavalry behind them were getting closer and closer to them. Guo Jing knew that they couldn't run anymore, so he yelled and stopped immediately.

Seeing this, the others stopped immediately, and quickly formed a battle formation, holding weapons, and looked coldly at the Xiliang cavalry who surrounded them!

They are all veterans who have fought with Guo Jing on the battlefield for many years, so they can naturally maintain their composure in this situation.

The Xiliang cavalry said that after they surrounded them in a circle, they did not choose to attack, but kept their distance, as if they were waiting for someone to come over.

After a while, there was a gap in the middle of the Xiliang cavalry, and then a young boy on a black horse slowly approached, and beside him was an old acquaintance of Guo Jing - Zheng Zhijing, the guard of Liangzhou!

Zheng Zhijing was a member of the second prince Liang Qianrong, and it was no secret among the Xiliang court, so Liang Qianwu did not want to take him with him when he sent troops to Liangzhou this time.

In his view, you have been fighting Liangzhou for so many years and you can't beat him, and you are still your own competitor. Isn't bringing him the same as bringing a mole?
So he originally refused, but his father Liang Tian ordered him to accept Zheng Zhijing, otherwise he should not attack Liangzhou!

In fact, Liang Tian also has good intentions. After all, Zheng Zhijing has been in Liangzhou for so many years, and he is very familiar with the situation in Liangzhou. Moreover, he is old and has experienced many things. If Liang Qianwu encounters any emergency, he can also help him. Come up with ideas.

But Liang Qianwu didn't know this. Although he was reluctant, he came out with Zheng Zhijing, and he also figured it out. Since you are following me, then I will fight hard and take Liangzhou down for you to see. You go back You can also tell your master who is the number one warrior in Xiliang!

But Liang Qianwu was really right with Zheng Zhijing. Zheng Zhijing was slightly surprised when he saw Guo Jing in the crowd, and then his face was overjoyed. He walked forward and whispered something to Liang Qianwu...

　It's Friday, I wish you all a happy off-duty in advance!
