Chapter 349 Suspicion!

Chapter 349

"Lieutenant Zhang, just now Si Ling shot an arrow, what is written on it?"

Xu Qian suddenly said, looking at Zhang Bi at the side.

A piece of white cloth was hung on the arrow that Bai Siling shot. In addition to wrapping a lot of pills that helped everyone, there were also many words written in ink on the white cloth.

But after the pill was given to everyone, Zhang Ju didn't mention a single word on the white cloth.

"This...well, actually that adult wrote me that letter. If I can escape, I will show it to you. The adult has repeatedly confessed that the letter cannot be given to anyone but me. Look at it. What is written on it is our escape method, which is probably our only method and our last chance."

Zhang Bi smiled wryly.

"Oh? Can't we even watch it?"

Xu Qian said. Although Zhang Ju didn't say it clearly, Xu Qian knew that Wang Chong was the only one who could be called "that lord" by him.

"Um."

Zhang Ju nodded seriously.

Xu Qian remained silent, and seemed to think of something after a while, and subconsciously looked at Huang Yongtu next to him. Huang Yongtu was probably the only reason why Wang Chong repeatedly told them not to watch it.

That guy is worried about Huang Yongtu.

"asshole!"

Almost at the same time, Huang Yongtu also understood, the veins on his forehead popped up, and his heart was burning with anger. Although he did not speak, his ears were not deaf.

He didn't miss a word of what Xu Qian and Zhang Ju said.

"What does that Wang Badan mean? Can't you trust me?"

Huang Yongtu's face was flushed with anger. It's such a time, and he still said he couldn't trust him, how could this make him feel embarrassed?

Regardless of Zhang Ju or Xu Qian, at this time, they were smart enough not to pick up the stalk, and turned their heads away as if they didn't hear what he said.

Huang Yongtu and Wang Chong didn't deal with each other all the way.

Wang Chong didn't tell him,

It is probably understandable.

...

"My lord, what should we do next?"

On the official road on the east side, Ma Song suddenly said. One sentence attracted everyone's attention, and they all looked at Wang Chong, who was at the front of the team.

The confrontation has been deadlocked for a while, but this alone cannot save Xu Qian, Huang Yongtu and the others.

And up to now, the leader of that group of iron-clothed horse thieves has not made a move, at least not yet.

"It would be great if the message could be passed on."

Another teacher said.

"It's useless. The capital is a long way from here. Even the nearest place to garrison troops is three or four days away. By then, everything will be too late."

It was Bai Siling who spoke, who immediately rejected that long idea:

"In other words, it is up to us to rescue them now."

"Si Ling is right. The other party even shot the pigeons that sent the letter to the court to death immediately. The purpose is that they don't want us to pass on the news. They won't let us have this kind of opportunity."

Wang Chong frowned.

In order to prevent all kinds of potential fraudulent behaviors in the trial mission, before completing the mission, it is strictly forbidden for everyone to carry any type of message communication.

The result of this was that when Wang Chong and the others encountered such difficulties and dangers, they were completely unable to communicate with the outside world.

Moreover, the road to the west is originally taken in the most remote, barren, and rarely visited mountains and mountains. Except for occasional businessmen, even fewer people come.

If it weren't for the sky high and the emperor far away, far away from the royal court's education, there would not be so many bandits and horse bandits.

In a word, if you want to rescue Xu Qian and the others now, the only hope is forty-two of them!

"...Moreover, compared to this, this is not my biggest concern. My biggest concern is another thing."

Wang Chong murmured.

"What?"

One sentence caused everyone's hearts to tense, and they all looked at Wang Chong.

"Did you feel something?"

Bai Siling said a little uneasy.

The current Wang Chong is the anchor of the entire army. If even he is uneasy, then everyone is even more uneasy. Before today, Bai Siling would never have imagined that he would be with more than 40 battle-hardened Tang cavalry, together with Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu, they put their hopes on a young man who was much younger than him.

But it just happened.

Neither she nor anyone else felt that anything was wrong.

"Si Ling, why do you think Li Tieyi didn't do anything?"

Wang Chong suddenly said.

"ah!"

Bai Siling was stunned, unable to keep up with Wang Chong's rhythm for a while.

"Now that we are confronting each other like this, we can't save Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu, but Li Buyi and the others can't deal with us either. We are not in a hurry because we can at least contain most of their power and save Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu. Why is Tie Yi in no hurry?"

"With their strength, they can actually eat Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu. Although they have to pay a little price, they can do it. But they didn't do it. It's because they wanted to use Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu. They hold us back."

"If Xu Qian and Huang Yongtu are dead, then we will retreat immediately. But now that we have come, why doesn't he make a move?"

Wang Chong turned his back to Bai Siling, his eyes passed through the void, and looked at the leader of the horse bandits and the military adviser on the huge rock behind the bandits and horse bandits.

To be able to control so many bandits and horse bandits and make them rely on him and use them for himself, Li Tieyi's strength and skill are beyond doubt.

And being able to mobilize those bandits and horse bandits who relied on them so effectively, when I just attacked and defeated their front line, I responded in a timely and effective manner, and saw that the cavalry was not conducive to walking through the hillside, so I mobilized the bandits and horse bandits Outflanking himself from both sides and restraining his own cavalry tit for tat, the ability of that military adviser can also be imagined.

Facing such opponents, Wang Chong will not underestimate them.

Any actions that underestimate them will only lead to their own defeat and unacceptable results in the end.

"You mean..."

Hearing Wang Chong's words, Bai Siling also frowned, and she also vaguely thought of something.

"Speak out and see if we think the same!"

Wang Chong said in a deep voice, there seemed to be a storm brewing between his brows.

"The reason why they didn't make a move is because they were waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to completely defeat us and make us unable to escape?"

Bai Siling tentatively said.

"Um."

Wang Chong nodded heavily:

"This is what I think too. These iron-clothed horse bandits are too calm, too calm. If there is no accident, the military adviser of the iron-clothed horse bandit must have made some arrangements behind our backs."

"Then what to do"

Bai Siling's expression changed suddenly, and it was difficult for her to maintain her composure.

Five or six hundred bandits and horse bandits are already very difficult to deal with. If they have any further tricks, it will be even more difficult for everyone to be kind. Maybe, not only could they not save Xu Qian, Huang Yongtu and the others, but they would even have to get involved.

"It's too late. If I'm not wrong, their arrangement should be almost completed. It's too late to retreat."

Wang Chong said in a deep voice.

All around, the wind was stirring, and the entire army was as silent as death.

The atmosphere was extremely depressing.

It is really unique that the regular Datang officers and soldiers were forced to such a degree by bandits and horse bandits. But the predicament that everyone faces is already in front of them.

No matter how powerful the forty Tang cavalry were, it would be difficult for them to deal with five or six hundred bandits and horse bandits, not to mention that there were still many horse bandits whose strength was not inferior to their true martial arts.

The difference in the number of people is too great.

Moreover, according to what Li Cangqi said, Li Tieyi is at least a master of the fifth or sixth level of the real martial arts realm, coupled with his unique "Iron Clothes Skill", when he really makes a move, the situation everyone will face will be even worse than now. steep.

Wang Chong sat on the back of the white-hoofed crow, and countless thoughts flashed in his eyes in an instant.

Bai Siling knew that he was thinking, even though he was anxious, he also knew that he couldn't be disturbed, so he could only suppress it forcibly.

Time passed by little by little, and it was extremely difficult. I don't know how long it took, but Bai Siling finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Think about it?"

"If you want to break the situation, there is only one way now, and it is also the last and only way."

"any solution?"

Bai Siling said subconsciously.

Wang Chong smiled and did not speak. His eyes swept across the space and looked at the iron-clothed horse bandit leader and military adviser on the jagged boulder opposite.

"But before that, we have other things to do."

With a wave of Wang Chong's hand, all forty Tang cavalry circled the corner and withdrew completely.

"What are they trying to do?"

As soon as Wang Chong left, Li Tieyi frowned almost immediately on the jagged boulder:

"Is it possible they found out about our plans?"

Li Tieyi criss-crossed the mountains, whether he was a merchant or an officer, he would kill whenever he wanted. But this time, Li Tieyi had a faint feeling of being constrained everywhere.

The reason is simple, this group of forty officers gave him too much threat.

"It shouldn't be possible. I've asked them to go around the mountains as much as possible. Even a bird can't be startled. It's impossible for them to detect anything from the surroundings. Moreover, since they have come here, it is destined that they will be aware of it." What, it is impossible to leave easily. My feeling is that they should only leave temporarily, not leave, and they are not far away."

Zhou An thought for a moment.

"Come on, send a spy out to take a look!"

Li Tieyi thought for a moment, then waved his hand.

"Yes, my lord!"

A horse bandit scout quickly responded and left.

...

"Damn, these guys don't feel the danger, so they leave us and run away?"

On the hillside, when Wang Chong and Bai Siling moved, Huang Yongtu immediately couldn't help cursing, his expression unable to conceal his anxiety.

He was not such a restless person.

But life is in an instant, Wang Chong's every move is related to his own life, so Huang Yongtu couldn't help being frightened and angry.

Born in an aristocratic family with a prominent status since he was a child, Huang Yongtu has never experienced such a dangerous situation. If he had known that he would fall into this situation, Huang Yongtu would not have participated in this trial at all.

Even if reprimanded by the training camp, the court, or even the family, he would never participate.
