After dressing as a widow

Together with Gu Lin, ten people climbed over the mountain in front of them. They didn't carry any weight, and they walked quickly. They quickly reached the middle of the mountain, and passed the mountain in a while.

Standing on the mountain peak, the low hills in front of him can be seen at a glance. Gu Lin pointed to the front: "There is Ma Jinhe over there. We don't know the exact location of the refugee army. It is inevitable that they rushed in front of them as Zhang Tie said. , Next, we must always pay attention to the movement ahead.”

"Yes, Leader Gu."

Gu Lin: "Go ahead."

The long-term drought caused all the vegetation around to wither, turn yellow and wither before late autumn. They are too conspicuous, as long as they are seen by others, they are like bright lights in the dark, so try to walk along the rocks that can hide their figures. There are mounds to go.

After night fell, they arrived at the last two hills closest to the Majin River. Suddenly, Gu Lin, who was walking in the front, stopped and said softly, "They have indeed reached the Majin River."

The soldier who followed him heard the words and went to where he was standing, and saw that the flat land where the Majin River was located could be seen from the gap between the two peaks, and there were many burning fires on the flat ground that should have been dark. There are no less than 20 fires that can be accessed through this gap.

The soldier's body trembled, and he looked at Gu Lin suddenly: "Leader, the number of people here is not the same as what you said before!"

"Yes, there were only 20 people in the refugee army before, and they didn't need such a fire." It's not winter, it's not even late autumn yet, and Luozhou is located in the south, so the fire is the biggest The role of the fire is only for cooking and lighting, and more than [-] fires have been connected into a large piece.

Gu Lin's face was condensed: "These people will definitely send out sentinels. Once we start to scare the snake, we will be outflanked."

He said to Zhang Tie and the others: "You guys wait here, I'll check the situation."

"Team leader, I'll go with you." Although Zhang Tie felt that he was not as capable as Gu Lin, he felt uncomfortable asking such a young Gu Lin to go alone. "Multiple people take care of each other."

Gu Lin thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay, you follow me, the others are here to wait."

The most important thing this time is to find out how many people are stationed by the Majin River. The huge broad knife on their backs inevitably hangs on the branches and makes movement. The people watching, only carrying the short blade that soldiers are equipped with, turned over the last two hills with Zhang Tie one after the other.

Soon, a complete piece of flat land appeared in front of Gu Lin and Zhang Tie, and saw the fires meandering along the banks of the Majin River. The more than 20 fires they saw in the gap between the two hills before were just a small one. a part of.

There is a second twenty, and a third twenty.

Zhang Tie stuttered, his heart trembling: "Team leader, here, how many people are there?"

"Shouldn't this be the group of refugee soldiers?"

Gu Lin frowned so deeply for the first time, he saw from the beginning to the end of this serpentine team: "It's too dark to recognize, you have to get closer to determine whether it's an enemy or a friend."

He glanced at the surrounding terrain and the people stationed by the river, and quickly pointed to the position on the left: "There, let's go."

This place is not far from Anyuan Town. If you ride horses like them, you can get there in less than two days, and a quick march will only take you about four days. There is no power to fight back at all, and the militiamen recruited are even more useless.

The night wind was blowing, and the leaves that were left on the branches with great difficulty were also blown off, and fell on the ground piled with a thick layer of fallen leaves, making a slight sound.

In the middle of the station, the third child who had been robbed of the horse by Gu Lin in front of his face stood respectfully and said to the human sitting on the ground covered with soft silk: "Report to the king, It's not far from Anyuan Town, and according to our speed, we will be there in the afternoon three days later."

The so-called Heavenly King was born powerful, wearing luxurious clothes and a golden crown on his head, looking quite majestic.

But this person's complexion didn't look good, and he was even a bit sinister: "The hawks and dogs sent by the imperial court are quite capable, and they chased them all the way here. If we didn't give up our right wing, we wouldn't be able to get here."

"Is your information accurate, Anyuan Town can give us enough food supplies?"

"It's absolutely true. This subordinate has repeatedly confirmed with the person under my command. He was originally from Anyuan Town. He only went outside after committing some crimes and became my person."

The mouse-like human said: "He said that Anyuan Town has a magical method, which can produce more than 300 catties of grain per mu. Over the past few years, both the village and the residents of the town should have a lot of grain. Definitely enough to supply us."

When I first heard about this, the man who looked like a mouse couldn't believe it at all. With so many of them, he had never seen a crop that could yield more than 300 catties per mu. If he didn't change his words, it didn't look like he was lying, so he hurriedly told the king about it.

Speaking of the man who looks like a mouse, he felt aggrieved. He and the tall man would secretly lead people out from the refugee army that day, but they didn't want to go to Fucheng to die. The heavenly kings are not afraid. It's nothing more than a small disturbance, so what if the city is occupied, if the imperial court notices it, it will be troublesome to send troops to encircle and suppress them.

It's better to take a group of people to find a place to be a majestic king of the mountain, plunder and loot more money, and put on the clothes of ordinary people as soon as the drought is over, and become a "good person" suddenly, and have no worries about food and drink for the rest of their lives.

They are not the heavenly kings holding the flags, and they did not hang their names in the court.

Unexpectedly, when I came to Anyuan Town, I bumped into Li Tianwang who led people to capture Fucheng. My 500 people had to disarm obediently in front of Li Tianwang's 1000 people.

If he hadn't been able to use him, I'm afraid Li Tianwang would be treated as a deserter and killed with a single knife as soon as he met him.

Isn't the second child just being treated as the chicken that kills the chicken to make an example to the monkey, and let the monkey see him.

One of the leaders of the refugee army, Li Tianwang, who claimed to be the king of heaven, was a bit more determined. The court's pursuers also had to eat. They had already squandered all the food and grass in the mansion. There was nothing left except a stone city. Not many, otherwise they wouldn't have caught up now.

As long as he can make up for food and grass in Anyuan Town and reconcile with other groups of people, he no longer needs to be afraid of those people from the imperial court.

The ignited fire keeps adding firewood, illuminating the dense crowd of people sitting or lying down.

Gu Lin has already brought Zhang Tie to the place. They are less than 50 meters away from the nearest group of people. They can see the clothes and outfits on these people. Gu Lin even saw the man who looks like a talking mouse and his In front of him was a middle-aged man in expensive clothes.

Sure enough, it is not a friend but an enemy.

And there are so many people, there are 2000 people in total, which is several times their number.

Gu Lin's heart sank, and he raised his hand to make a gesture of retreating. Zhang Tie, who was already frightened by so many people in front of him, didn't even dare to breathe hard, and stepped back slowly and cautiously.

Until he exited the range that the group could hear, Gu Lin immediately said: "Hurry up and report the news, the people who were going to attack Anyuan Town before are among them, Anyuan Town is in danger."

Zhang Tie was shocked: "Team leader, the three of us inspectors add up to only [-] people, and these people have no trouble dealing with us..."

Zhang Tie just had one thought now, go back and report the letter and run for your life, what else do you want to fight, this is just giving your life to practice for others, maybe they are not even warm.

They all have wives and children, so they don't want to put their lives in it so casually.

"That's why we need to hurry up and give time to the county magistrate, the three inspectors, and the common people." Gu Lin didn't have time to talk to Zhang Tie, and ran back quickly, his feet seemed to be riding the wind, and his breath seemed to be pulled hard The bellows, his fastest speed to date.

The few people waiting at the two hills were sitting on the ground with their hands on their knees and chatting one after another. Their voices were so low that they thought it was the sound of leaves falling on the ground, which was hard to detect.

Suddenly, several people stood up, picked up the weapons in their hands, and looked in the direction of something approaching rapidly.

Gu Lin rushed out from the woods, ran up to several people, and immediately carried the broadsword and bow and arrow on his back: "It's an urgent military situation. There are more than 2000 refugee troops stationed ahead. We must bring this news back immediately."

"!!!"

"two thousand!"

"Leader!"

"I don't have time to explain, let's go!" There are tens of thousands of residents in the town, and the evacuation alone is a big project. There are old people and children inside, and the speed can't be accelerated. If you go back a moment earlier, you can have a moment longer.

Gu Lin didn't have time to wait for the people behind him, the thin figure quickly sank into the darkness, Ma Tiejun and others behind him looked at the direction he left, and before they could react, another figure suddenly appeared.

Ma Tiejun quickly grabbed Zhang Tie, who was out of breath: "Just now the team leader said that there were more than 2000 people, and they left in a hurry, you—"

Zhang Tie, who went with Gu Lin, also saw so many people with his own eyes: "It's true, go back quickly."

More than 2000 enemies.

The tenth Xiaoqi people felt cold all over, and hurriedly followed Zhang Tie down the mountain.

At a distance of an hour away from them, eleven horses were tied to a tree, and Wang Jie, who did not dare to take a nap, lit a fire. A rat was tied to a dagger in his hand, and the rat was handcuffed. Delicious, although there is less oil, less salt and no other seasonings, it is not bad when everyone is almost hungry.

He tore off the rat's leg and put it in his mouth, and saw his team leader running down the mountain with his face flushed and his whole body as if he had been fished out of the water. He hurried up to meet him: "Leader."

"You wait here for Zhang Tie and the others. I will ride back to the town to report that there is an urgent military situation."

Holding the handcuffed mouse, Wang Jie, who originally wanted to share it with Gu Lin, saw his eagerness and threw the handcuffed mouse away: "Yes, leader, don't worry, I'll wait for them all to come and go back together, you Be careful on the road."

"Yeah," Gu Lin, who had run for several miles and crossed mountains and ridges, got on his horse and slammed the horse's belly: "Drive!"
