Chapter 37
"Order, everyone puts out the torches, no noise, and those who disobey the order will be beheaded!"

On the official road, Xiao Sha's cold wind blew, bringing a bloody smell.

Holding a longbow, Zhou Bai stood with the guards in the front row, facing the horrifying darkness that could not be clearly seen.

Suddenly, looking up at the sky, there were no stars and no moon, and a black cloud was about to fall.

"Snapped."

The first drop of rain in the middle of the night fell on Zhou Bai's forehead.

"Da da da..." The sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer and closer, and everyone's weapons were held tighter.

Even the voices of the cavalry can be heard, but the accents of those voices are obviously different.

"Drive, Hu Yanhe, you can't run away, get off the horse quickly, and your life can be saved." A rough voice who was chasing behind shouted.

"Damn, if you dare to intercept and kill the envoy who made an offering to Emperor Daxu, you will die without a whole body!"

"Prince, let's go. I'll lead the people to the back of the palace. There were obviously a lot of torches here before, so someone must be nearby."

"kill……!"

"Capture and kill Huyanhe, reward a hundred gold, and seal a thousand households!"

Immediately after the neighing of war horses, there were shouts and shouts, and the sound of swords and soldiers colliding mixedly sounded.

The caravan formation was standing beside the official road, not far from the battle site, but because it was in the dark night, they were not spotted for a while.

"Prince? We don't have a palace in Bei'an County." A team leader asked doubtfully.

"Young Master Zhou, I, Daxu, don't have this accent." As expected of an old shopkeeper who has been in business for many years, Qi Hong immediately heard something was wrong.

"Well, the people of the Grassland Kingdom don't know how they got through such a difficult pass, there are so many cavalry." Zhou Bai looked solemn, and he was also a little puzzled.

You must know that Pingcang County not only has the natural barriers of Cangshan Mountain and Kukou Pass, but also Cangbei County to the north of Cangshan Mountain as a frontline buffer. How can the Jin people come here easily.

It can only be said that the water inside is very deep.

Qi Hong was mature and prudent, pretending not to hear Zhou Bai's whisper, but silently calculating the probability of surviving the cavalry attack.

After the first drop of rain fell, the low-pitched rain cloud could no longer hold back, and the icy continuous raindrops fell on the dry mud, declaring that the fight had reached its climax.

Fortunately, since the caravan decided to go on the road overnight, of course they observed that it might rain at night, so they put on all the people in coir raincoats.

But for the chasing cavalry, the rain naturally added a lot of variables. Hu Yanhe might take advantage of the rain to escape, or he might be caught because the mud was wet and his speed slowed down.

Kacha~
A flash of lightning as thick as a wrist pierced the sky. At that moment, the bright lightning illuminated the ground, and many cavalrymen saw the silent chariot formation not far away.

Zhou Bai sighed, and could only watch Jie Qi coming suddenly.

There is no way, there are always more than 100 people, and a circular car formation is placed here, it is impossible that all the cavalry cannot be touched.

The few riders Mercedes-Benz spotted the formation of cars and rushed over immediately. It was Hu Yanhe who was eager to survive.

Zhou Bai made a signal, and the captain of the guard who was following Qi Hong immediately stepped forward and shouted angrily: "Stop coming, and those who attack the car formation will be killed without mercy!"

"Woo~" Four or five war horses were reined by the strongman on their backs, and they hurriedly stopped a few meters in front of the chariot formation.

At such a close distance, even if it is not as clear as day, you can still faintly see the distress of the people who came.

The "noble man" who is the leader in the middle has no trace of his pocket, and his hair is disheveled. Only the luxurious horse armor on his mount and the night jade with a knife on his waist can prove his extraordinary status.

The guards beside the "noble man" were also in a bit of a panic, but the bloodstains and murderous aura all over their bodies made them even more admirable. Loyalty and bravery are always a noble character.

One of the generals took a step forward on his horse and shouted loudly into the car formation.

"We are the envoys of the Kingdom of Jin to Shenjing. The envoy is the prince of our country, Hu Yanhe. Please let me wait in the car formation for a while. Thank you very much afterwards!"

Zhou Bai didn't ask others to answer, but replied in person: "It's raining late at night, it's hard to identify everyone, please stay away from the traffic, there is a post station ten miles behind where we can ask for help."

There were fewer and fewer blocking guards left behind, Zhou Bai still politely refused to let them in, and the "noble man" Hu Yanhe couldn't hold back anymore.

He got off his horse, stepped forward step by step against the swords of the caravan guards, and didn't stop until all the archers were aiming at him.

"I am the son of King Dajin, the third heir in line. I was ordered to go to Daxu, but I was intercepted and killed by domestic rebels on the way. Only you can save me now." Hu Yanhe said while throwing an object into the car formation. .

Zhou Bai picked it up and saw that it was actually a golden seal, engraved with three large seal characters of Yinshanhou.

Now the identity is really confirmed. If you want to say that the Marquis of Yinshan doesn't know Daxu's mainland, it's okay to say, but no one in the border counties in the north knows. Often only the most favored prince of the Kingdom of Jin can confer this title.

There are few mountains in the grassland, but the scale of Yinshan Mountain is no less than the majestic peaks of Daxu. Those who can occupy this place can often establish a huge grassland kingdom.

Although the Kingdom of Jin has built a new city and new capital due to the development of many generations, the status of Yinshan in the hearts of the Jin people is beyond doubt.

Seeing that his identity had been confirmed, Hu Yanhe continued: "If this Marquis dies here, I think you will not be able to escape the emperor's censure. If you let me in, it will be equivalent to saving my life. If you don't repay me for saving my life, how can I stand?" !"

"Young Master Zhou?" Seeing that Zhou Bai frowned tightly and remained silent, Qi Hong couldn't help reminding him.

The status of Yin Shanhou is high enough in the Kingdom of Jin, but there are still "rebels" who dare to intercept and kill, so who is behind them?

Saving one party will definitely offend the other party, and...

Zhou Bai turned around and whispered in Qi Hong's ear: "Master Hong, let's not talk about whether this can stop the two hundred riders. The key is whether the benefits brought by the Marquis of Yinshan in the future are worth your sacrifice of so many soldiers."

Qi Hong was stunned for a moment, and also very hesitant. The consequences of saving or not saving may be unbearable for them.

"You decide, the young master has explained it before, and I'll let you handle the emergency." Qi Hong couldn't make a decision, so he gritted his teeth and handed over the wealth and life of their caravan to Zhou Bai.

Zhou Bai took a deep look at Qi Hong, and ordered: "The emperor's missionary mission was attacked, we must rescue them, and open a gap to let them in."

There is no way, I tried it just now, no matter which choice he was going to make, the last catastrophic aura never left, instead it had already dragged Zhou Bai's luck into disaster.

The lesser of two evils, it is better to offend the nobles of the Jin Kingdom behind the rebels than to offend the emperor.

With so many people, unless they are all silenced, the news that they will die in the face of the missionary mission will spread the next day.

"Kill, chase after me, for the sake of sealing my wife and son!"

The gap had just been opened, and the pursuers who had been blocked for a moment finally rushed forward.

"Xuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu......"

Several caravan guards were caught off guard and were shot dead on the spot, and the bloody smell instantly permeated the car formation.

Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, catastrophe can be resolved, but it cannot be avoided.

Zhou Bai stared at the burst of black catastrophe, and suddenly remembered the decision to face the catastrophe this time, hoping that he did not make a mistake.
