Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 373

"Let's go." Yelu Hongji said without raising his head.

"Aren't you leaving?" Lord Hong turned his horse's head, seeing that Yelu Hongji hadn't moved, he turned back and said to him.

"I want to see how much Yeluqi can do." Yelu Hongji said lightly, "You go first."

Master Hong raised his head and glanced towards the inner city with deep eyes, and said to Yelu Hongji, "Okay, I'll wait for you ahead."

After speaking, the whip was raised, and the black horse galloped out.

His men and Master Lu's men took the reins of the mules and horses and followed behind, roaring out.

Xie Jue pushed the stunned Fifth Master Cheng, turned around and ran back a few steps, handed the bundle in his hand to the guard beside him, took Su Yue's hand, whistled, and led the people to follow him. Dash out behind.

After rushing out of the city gate, Xie Jue turned his head and saw a fire coming out of the city wall, which flickered and then was extinguished. His eyes were dark, and he softly shouted: "Get on the horse!"

While speaking, he had already grabbed the rein of a horse next to him, pushed the thing on it to the ground, turned on the horse, bent down again, and picked up Su Yue and placed it in front of him.

He understood why Master Hong was willing to give them all these horses...

He lost the goods directly on his side and ran away on horseback. The other guards also jumped on their horses (no goods were lost) and followed behind. Even the people in the caravan ran quickly.

Cheng Wuye was taken aback for a moment, and then saw that the group of Master Hong and Mr. Lu had galloped out in such a short while, and the group of people was heading north, leaving only a glimmer of a torch, and felt a big shock in their hearts.

Shouted to his subordinates: "Hurry up, run quickly."

The city gate they entered was the South City Gate, but this city gate was the North City Gate, which led directly to the hinterland of Bei Rong. If they wanted to return to Wu City, they had to make a big circle.

Moreover, there is another road outside the city...

Thinking of this, Cheng Wuye shouted loudly: "Xie San, don't rush, there is a river over there!"

Following his cry, the guard who had rushed to the front slipped under the horse's hoof, the horse stumbled, and the man fell out.

Xie Jue snorted softly, pulled the reins, and reined in the horse abruptly.

The rest of the people also reined in the horse, Tang Bingfei got off the horse, ran to the guard and looked around, then touched the ground below, raised his head and said: "Master, it's frozen."

"How's the injury?" Xie Jue asked with a slight frown.

"It's nothing." The guard got up from the ground, and one hand fell limply on his side, probably broken.

Xie Jue raised his chin to Tang Bing, and when Tang Bing was setting the guard's bone, he turned his head and looked back.

Cheng Wuye had already caught up, and said pantingly: "You can't go from here. This river is very wide and the ice is too slippery. Now these horses don't have horseshoes, and the sky is so dark. If you are not careful, you will be killed." He will fall down, and I heard from Qi Da that Yeluqi even did tricks on this river."

"Tricked?" Xie Jue glanced at the river.

It was the darkest time before dawn, and the air was so cold that the light of the torches could not shine very far.

The river was hidden in a deep blackness.

It seems to have a ferocious smile, and it is secretly waving its fangs.

Xie Jue turned his head and asked, "Is there another way to go?"

Cheng Wuye pointed to some tree shadows that were only tens of meters away from the city wall and said: "These trees are planted by the river, so they can only be walked around. The river originally passed from the north, and Yeluqi dug it specially The river leads here and surrounds the south gate, which is where we came in, and then turned from the forest."

Glancing at the tree shadows, Xie Jue looked up at the city wall.

Just for a while, a little bit of fire was already lit on the city wall.

Xie Jue got off the horse with Su Yue in his arms, and said, "Give ten torches to Ding Yi, and the rest will be extinguished! Ding Yi, ride your horse to the other side of the river."

The guards responded, and one by one they took all the torches from the hands of the people in the caravan.

Cheng Wuye watched the movements of those guards, and shouted to his subordinates: "Listen to Xie Ye, the torches are all extinguished."

Cheng Wuye's subordinates were terrified. If the torches were extinguished at this time, wouldn't it be even more invisible, but even if they hesitated, those people took the torches away.

As soon as the torches were extinguished, there was only fire around Ding Yi on the whole river.

Putting the torch into the cargo bag on the horse's back, Ding Yi got on the horse, holding a torch in one hand and the rein in the other, and said to Xie Jue, "Master, I'm leaving."

"Don't be impulsive." Xie Jue said coldly: "When you get to the middle, let the horse run by itself. You go around and we will meet in the woods."

Su Yue also said softly: "Be careful, let's go back and drink together."

A smile flashed across Ding Yi's face, he saluted Xie Jue and Su Yue, put his feet on the horse's belly, and ran towards the river.

As soon as he left, the cavalry crowd by the river was shrouded in darkness.

"Let's go." Xie Jue turned around and picked up Su Yue. Instead of riding a horse, he ran forward quickly.

Tang Bing followed closely behind.

The rest of the guards waited for a while, and when they saw that they were a hundred meters away, they led the horses a few meters away from each other so that they could just see the distance in front, left and right, and followed behind.

Cheng Wuye was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just followed the example of the guards and led his horse carefully, walking along the river.

It didn't take long to hear voices surging on the city wall, and the sound of sharp arrows whizzing towards the torches shaking on the river.

Cheng Wuye was startled, and said in a low voice, "Go, go, keep up with the one in front!"

Those who can run the Beijun army business in this season are not people who are afraid of trouble, nor are they afraid of death.

It's just that people have an instinctive fear of darkness, coupled with the infinite expansion of the sound of howling arrows in the darkness.

That sound seemed to ring in my ears, as if the fear of a sharp knife piercing my body at any moment made a young man who had just come with the caravan let out a scream.

This scream in the dark night was unusually expansive.

The horse he was leading neighed first.

Even the other horses neighed.

Cheng Wuye said badly, seeing the guards in front of him lifted the goods off the horse's back, and got on the horse directly.

Then he also became cruel, lifted half of the goods and got on the horse, and shouted to the rest: "Get on the horse, follow the one in front!"

"Don't lose it, don't lose it, I have to take it back."

"It's time, life is important!"

The neighing of horses, the sound of galloping horseshoes, and the chaotic voices of people all echoed by the silent river.

Xie Jue glanced back, frowned, and whistled behind him.

The guards behind had already rushed up, and two of them swooped down from their horses, freeing up two horses.

"Master, you go." Tang Bing's long sword had already been unsheathed, and the scabbard slapped on one of the horses, and said to Xie Jue.

Xie Jue hugged Su Yue, put his hands on the horse's back, turned on the horse, and hugged Su Yue in his arms at the same time, then shouted: "Everyone get on the horse, let's rush out!"

There is still half of the road away from the forest, and now it is exposed, and he can no longer take Su Yue alone.

Then go!

Following his voice, a stream of flames lit up on the city wall.

The Rong people shouted on the city wall: "This way, they are here."

After that, sharp arrows like rain flew towards the river.
