"Haha, our people are here!"
Hearing the rumbling sound of horse hooves, Master Feng endured the pain from the arrow wound, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw while drowning.
There were such a large number of cavalrymen appearing in the middle of the night. Apart from the hundred or so cavalrymen led by Zhang Hong who had just left the city with him, there seemed to be no one else!
The signal was sent before, but Zhang Hong was late in arriving. There must have been a problem somewhere.
After all, it takes some time to get here from another direction at night.
Tang Yanhai and his men had easily forced Master Feng into a corner.
Master Feng, who thought that reinforcements had arrived, burst into triumphant laughter.
However, it didn't take long before he was slapped in the face.
More and more people were riding towards this side.
Instead of attacking Zhao Muyun and others, they slowed down their pace. A man who looked like an officer walked up to Zhao Muyun and saluted.
Then two people pushed another person in front of Zhao Muyun.
Master Feng took a closer look and realized that this man was none other than Zhang Hong, who had come out of Dejing City with him, leading a hundred cavalrymen and splitting up into two groups to pursue the female assassin who had killed Hou Zongmin and her accomplices!
He...he was captured by Zhao Muyun's men again.
Even Master Feng felt sorry for him when he was in trouble himself.
Zhang Hong is so unlucky that he was arrested twice.
If such a thing were to spread among Li Jingang, Zhang Hong would probably never be able to hold his head up again.
However, soon Master Feng no longer had to worry about Zhang Hong.
Zhao Muyun signaled to Tang Yanhai, who immediately ordered his men to arrest Feng Zhaizhu without any further ado.
Master Feng did not wait for Zhang Hong's reinforcements, but instead waited for Zhao Muyun's army.
There were at least three thousand soldiers densely packed in front of him.
They appeared on the outskirts of Dejing City late at night. Needless to say, Zhao Muyun must have sent troops to Xiazhou!
Master Feng had no time to think about these things. Tang Yanhai and several scouts rushed forward and captured the injured Master Feng.
Two scouts escorted Master Feng and followed Tang Yanhai to Zhao Muyun.
Master Feng and Zhang Hong looked at each other with sorrow in their eyes.
In addition, Zhang Hong was still in shock and extremely worried.
What does Zhao Muyun want to do by gathering so many soldiers and horses late at night?
It turned out that after Zhang Hong parted ways with Master Feng, he caught up with Fan Tong and two other Fan family guards.
The three men saw so many people coming to kill them, and they were cavalry. No matter how skilled they were, how could they be a match for the cavalry!
The two guards were chopped into pieces on the spot, and Fan Tong was stabbed five times in a row. Although they were not in vital parts, he still bled profusely.
Fan Tong fought hard, hoping to kill as many people as possible to make up for his loss. He also killed several of Zhang Hong's cavalrymen.
Zhang Hong was so angry that he ordered his soldiers to shoot Fan Tong with arrows.
These people and the female killer killed his elder brother Hou Zongmin, and he wanted Fan Tong to die miserably.
Just when Zhang Hong ordered his soldiers to disperse and shoot Fan Tong with arrows, there was a whistling sound, and countless arrows poured down like raindrops towards Zhang Hong and his one hundred knights.
In the blink of an eye, a hundred knights screamed and fell down one after another after being shot by arrows.
Zhang Hong hurriedly dodged under the cover of several knights.
Soon, countless soldiers emerged from the darkness, pointing cold arrows at them.
Zhang Hong didn't want to be captured alive again, so he drew his sword and prepared to commit suicide. But he didn't have the courage to do it, and after holding the sword for a long time, he couldn't bring himself to do it.
A black shadow rushed over, knocked the sword out of Zhang Hong's hand, and then knocked Zhang Hong to the ground with one punch.
"Come here, tie him up and take him to see Zhao Tou!"
"Yes, Captain Shi!"
The man who beat the man clapped his hands, walked back to the team, and bowed to the leader and said, "Sima Tong, what should we do next?"
"Captain Shi, our goal is to advance towards Xiazhou. A night raid on Dejing is one of our strategic points."
"You and Captain Tian will lead the troops to the city of Dejing and wait for the opportunity."
"We thought our night raid would require some effort, but we didn't expect there would be soldiers coming out of the city. It really helped us a lot!"
Tong Gu had a calm expression and a determined look in his eyes.
"Boss Zhao asked you to command our attack on Xiazhou. Tian Qing and I will follow your instructions!"
"But, Sima Tong, we must not lose to that kid Xiaowu this time!"
Shi Yong pouted.
"Don't worry, Captain Shi. This battle is crucial to me as well. I will definitely give it my all."
Tong Gu said firmly.
"Okay, then Tian Qing and I will lead the troops to the outskirts of Dejing City and wait for Sima Tong's orders."
Shi Yong saluted, and then he and Tian Qing, each leading a thousand soldiers under their command, quickly left.
Tong Gu had Zhang Hong tied up and the injured Fan Tong carried up, heading towards the direction where the arrow sound came from.
A scout came to report that Zhao Muyun and Tang Yanhai's scout camp had also come out.
How could I not see my boss when he was right next to me?
So, when Zhao Muyun and Tang Yanhai were besieging and killing the owner and killers of Xuetangzhai, Tong Gu came with Zhang Hong and his troops.
After meeting Zhao Muyun, Tong Gu reported the progress of the march and the plan to attack Dejing City at night.
He planned to impersonate Zhang Hong and the one hundred knights he brought with him to trick the city gate into opening.
"No problem! Sima Tong, the command of the army is now handed over to you. You don't need to consider my opinion too much, just act boldly."
Tong Gu came from Jincheng with 4,000 soldiers. He not only marched to the gates of Xiazhou, but also created a crisis for the rebels in Xiazhou, thereby attracting the attention of the rebels in Xiazhou and creating conditions for Wu Shangzhi's cavalry to launch a surprise attack on Luzi Pass.
Tong Gu is now planning to attack Dejing at night. If he takes it, it will definitely be a bigger shock to the Xiazhou rebels than the original plan.
