Chapter 630

The mountain path is winding and rugged, and the narrow road extends to the end of sight.

Jiang Pengji rode easily on Xiaobai's back. As an excellent descendant of the chariot and Northern Xinjiang war horse, Xiaobai's endurance and weight-bearing ability are extremely strong. She walked steadily and easily at every step. Compared with others, she seemed a little embarrassed.

"The mountain roads leading to Jinmen county are so rugged. I don't know how difficult the road to Fenghu county will be..."

Yang Si is also secretly complaining. As a counselor, he can enjoy special treatment.

Most of the other soldiers walked. He could ride a horse and walk without legs, but the bumpy horse still made him suffer.

Jiang Pengji saw that his face was very white, with heavy fatigue. Looking at the jujube horse he stepped down, she was panting.

She took the initiative to suggest, "why don't you ride Xiaobai? Look at you. I don't think you've reached Jinmen County yet. You're tired first."

Yang Si was a little excited, but he was a little counselled when he thought that all the smart horses had tempers.

"It won't lift me off my horse?"

Yang Si nervously grasped the reins. If he wasn't afraid of Xiaobai's discomfort, he wanted to hold the horse's neck in order to be safe.

Unexpectedly, Xiaobai not only didn't throw Yang Si off his horse, but continued to drive without complaint.

"Don't make trouble on purpose. Xiaobai has a good temper." Jiang Pengji changed into the horse before Yang Si and controlled the horse with the reins. "Fortunately, the opponent this time is the red lotus sect. If I were a smarter enemy, I wouldn't dare to go along this mountain road."

She rode on her horse and looked around at the terrain, laughing and joking.

Walking along the mountain path is indeed a strange move. It can avoid the eyes and ears of the enemy unknowingly. Whether it is a sneak attack or something else, it has a miraculous effect.

However, risks and benefits coexist.

The mountain path is not only suitable for them to sneak into the enemy, but also suitable for the enemy to ambush them.

Xiaobai walked steadily, which was quite different from the previous bumps, which made Yang Si feel a little better.

He said, "the situation is different. The Lord marches quickly. Even if the enemy intends to ambush, he can't catch up with the time."

According to Yang Si's estimation, when they first captured the small town, the senior management of Honglian sect just received the news that they had arrived in the small town.

It took time to deliver the order. When they responded and prepared to ambush, we had already conquered Jinmen county through the mountain road.

Jiang Pengji's war rhythm is very fast, but how many people can do it?

Most people's energy can only focus on one place. When they receive the news, the best fighter has been missed.

Why are excellent counselors so popular?

Not only because they can win thousands of miles in the backward world of information transmission, but more importantly, they think more comprehensively and considerate than ordinary people. It's like playing chess. Ordinary people go step by step. They play tricks. One step counts ten steps.

As Yang Si said, although the mountain road leading to Jinmen county is long, the slope is relatively gentle and consumes less physical strength than expected.

Jiang Pengji's soldiers, who doesn't take weight-bearing training as a routine?

This mountain road takes three or four hours for ordinary troops to pass, and only more than one hour for them.

At the same time, the troops of Jinmen county have been urgently transferred to Fenghu County for defense.

The red lotus sect sent out several scouts. Sure enough, they found suspicious people. They judged that this was the enemy scouts at the outpost.

The scholar clenched his fist nervously. There was a burning charcoal fire in the house, which was hot and made his palms exude hot sweat.

"Sure enough - the purpose of the Liu thief is Fenghu County -" the scholar nervously walked back and forth in the hall with his hands on his back, as if he was going to rub a hole in the ground. He said, "go and find out again, and report back as soon as possible! If you find the main force of the Liu thief, don't scare the snake."

"Yes!"

Before long, a voice came from outside the hall. Honglian cult found traces of scouting activities at the exit of mountain road in Fenghu county.

Every once in a while, someone will come and report back, which makes the scholar nervous.

Liu Xi sent a large number of scouts. What does that mean?

This means that the number of troops pulled over by others is large, probably more than 10000!

"Report -"

"Report -"

"Report -"

The messenger kept going back and forth. Every time he received a reply, the tension in the scholar's heart increased.

Finally, he was so anxious that he was sweating. He went out and looked at the weather outside. He was angry and defeated, "the reinforcements in Kinmen County haven't come yet?"

The messenger hung his head and replied timidly, "it's still half a day's journey."

Half a day?

So slow?

The scholar was angry and anxious. He never thought time would pass so slowly.

He is like an ant on a hot pot. For him, every minute and every second is suffering.

Now, he only hoped that Liu Xi would walk slowly. He had better wait until their reinforcements came to the city.

Otherwise, he really didn't have the confidence to fight Jiang Pengji with his current soldiers and horses.

"Where is Mr. an? Go and invite Mr. an to discuss countermeasures."

Thinking of an Xun, the scholar had a backbone and quickly asked the young servant to invite an Xun.

The boy ran fast with two legs, but at this time, an was no longer in Fenghu county.

"Do you know where Mr. ANN has gone?"

The scholar didn't think anything was wrong. Although an Ying left, his brothers who had a good relationship with an Ying were still there. The scholar had no doubt.

The boy replied, "I've asked carefully. It seems that Mr. an went to Honglian county all night."

Shu Shengsheng frowned. He didn't understand what an Ying was doing in Honglian county at this time.

However, he did not struggle with this issue for too long, because another messenger found the trace of the scouts.

What made the scholar more frightened was that the place the scouts found was getting closer and closer to Fenghu county.

In other words, when these scouts check the situation, Liu Xi's main force will attack.

Thinking of the reinforcements that will arrive in half a day, the scholar impatiently wants to grasp the bun.

The scholar never thought that this was just a bait laid by Jiang Pengji because the scouts were active frequently to spy on them.

Qi official let him sit in the central army. Under his arrangement, scouts were sent out to scare the red lotus sect.

As for the main force?

By now, they had passed the mountain road, through a vast expanse of white snow, and galloped towards Jinmen county.

Chengde County belongs to the north, with heavy snow in winter.

In addition to the official roads, the snow in other places is not cleaned up. Generally, they melt by themselves when the weather gets warmer.

Jiang Pengji had asked the people of the pioneer camp to prepare plain linen and put it on her body as a cover. Today's weather is very good. The snow is shiny and shiny. In order not to hurt their eyes, the guards and soldiers of the city gate will not stare at the snow outside the city for a long time.

The garrison in Kinmen County was almost removed, leaving only 3000 old, weak and disabled soldiers who stole, raped and played tricks.

Now the sun is shining, and the reflection makes their eyes very uncomfortable. Outside, it is cold and cold. There are few Honglian sect that seriously guard on the city wall.

Naturally, they did not find a pioneer camp of more than 4000 people approaching quietly.
