Chapter 231 Whirlwind Rider
At the southern entrance of Sanhe Town, a group of knights came galloping.
The leading knight carried a flag half a man's height on his back, with the Chinese character "Yan" (Swallow) written on it.
Yan represents the King of Yan.
This team of knights were all dressed in black armor, which revealed their identities as the most elite Whirlwind Riders under the command of King Yan.
The Whirlwind Riders were few in number, only three thousand men.
But the most glorious record of the 3,000 Whirlwind Riders was when they fought one against ten, 3,000 against 30,000, and killed the Northern Barbarian Cavalry, who were the best at cavalry warfare, and forced them to flee in panic.
It was also from then on that the situation of the Tang Dynasty's war against the Northern Barbarians was completely reversed.
Now, a team of Whirlwind Riders appeared in Sanhe Town, making those who knew the origin of the Whirlwind Riders a little panicked.
Zhao Bingzhao was so upset by Mr. Xu's words that he almost vomited blood. Now he felt much calmer, but he looked listless, as if he had lost interest in anything.
Although Zhao Rui was extremely anxious, he could do nothing.
It was not until the Whirlwind Riders appeared in Sanhe Town and galloped through the town that Zhao Rui reported the news to Zhao Bingzhao. Zhao Bingzhao's face, which seemed to be full of world-weariness, finally showed a hint of strangeness.
"Go check, what happened?"
The Whirlwind Cavalry, as the personal army of King Yan, would not appear here for no reason.
"Master, you are making things difficult for me, your disciple!"
Zhao Rui grimaced. "Those are the Whirlwind Cavalry, coming and going like the wind. How could my men possibly keep up with their speed?"
"You won't send anyone south?"
Zhao Bingzhao rolled his eyes at Zhao Rui and said, "The Whirlwind Riders came from the south, so they must have rested along the way. If we follow their path, we'll definitely find some clues."
"Master, how long do you think it will take us to find any clues?"
Zhao Rui rolled his eyes and sank back into his chair. "The Whirlwind Riders aren't just fleeting. If they truly had an important mission, they would absolutely keep it a secret and wouldn't reveal a single detail."
“That’s right!”
Zhao Bingzhao nodded, "How about this, you chase after them yourself!"
“…”
Zhao Rui was dumbfounded. "Master, did I offend you?"
"What do you think?"
Zhao Bingzhao snorted, "Stop playing dirty! Hurry up and send someone to investigate. No matter how long it takes, I want to know what the Tornado Riders are doing."
…
When Master Zhao Er and Zhao Rui were trying to figure out the reason for the appearance of the Whirlwind Riders, the Whirlwind Riders had already arrived at Lingshui Village and appeared outside the gate of Old Xu's house without stopping.
In the courtyard of Old Xu's house, Old Man Xu, who had just returned from discussing the construction of a waterwheel with Guan Laoqi, heard the rumbling sound of horse hooves from afar.
Without any delay, he assembled his spear and stood guard in the yard.
"Leng Jue, the Whirlwind Guard under the command of the King of Yan, greets Xiao Yilang!"
The knights led by the Whirlwind Riders dismounted and saluted respectfully to Mr. Xu.
"By order of the King of Yan, I am sending you a gift of local products from the South. Please inspect it, Sir Xiaoyi!"
As Leng Jue spoke, several Whirlwind Riders behind him fell off their horses and placed the exquisite bamboo baskets hanging on their horses in front of Old Man Xu.
"What the hell?"
Old Master Xu was stunned for a moment, looking at the four exquisite bamboo baskets placed in front of him.
A local product from the South?
The King of Yan sent him local specialties?
This old fox is still harboring evil intentions!
So, should we collect these so-called local specialties?
