Take the city to the Warring States

Chapter 141 Forest Safari
Ten miles away from the west gate of Xindu, the horseshoe galloped so fast that the hares on the roadside scattered in a hurry.Zhao Yu pulled the reins, and the horse stopped walking.The son of the rich and powerful behind him also stopped his horse quickly.Immediately afterwards, thousands of private soldiers took up positions behind them.

It doesn't look like hunting, but it looks like two armies are fighting.Zhao Yu pulled the reins and turned the horse around.Looking at Zhao Yong, Zhao Wuming, Xue Qian, Xue Zimo, and the sons of rich and powerful families and private soldiers stretching as far as the eye can see, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Today's hunting is the same as in the past. I don't know if the ranking is judged by the number of prey."

"I agree with the words of the prince."Zhao Jia, who was riding a war horse and standing behind Zhao Wuming, echoed his words, holding the rein with a hint of curiosity.Although I have practiced riding since I was a child, it is always difficult to ride a horse alone, and it is the first time to go hunting with a war horse.

After listening to Zhao Jia's words, the people behind all agreed.

"It's like this every year, and we naturally won't have any objections."

"I don't know if I will go hunting later, whether horses can hunt more prey compared to chariots."

"So, you couldn't hunt prey before because the chariot couldn't do it."

"Obviously my own arrow skills are not good, what chariot is to blame."

"This this……".

Zhao Yu looked at one person whose face was flushed, and looked around the crowd behind him: "Since today's hunting is still the same as in previous years, then I will wait according to the previous rules, from now until sunset. The ranking is based on the number of prey." .

Everyone nodded when they heard Zhao Yu's words.

"Since the rules have been set, I will not delay the time."

"Each of them went hunting with their own private soldiers. This time, I will not sit back and watch you come out on top."

"There is no evidence to say, or when the sun goes down, we will see the truth by the number of prey."

"Also ask the prince to issue an order."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu didn't say a word when he heard it, but just waved his hand.Seeing this, a guard behind him hurried to the left.A large drum was set up at some unknown time, and the wrestler was ordered to wave his arms, and the sound of the drum spread instantly.

Everyone had to order them to wave their whips heavily, and gallop away with the private soldiers behind them.

Zhao Wuming looked at the crowd roaring away, as if he was in a battlefield.

Seeing that Zhao Wuming was in a daze, Zhao Yu joked to him: "The fourth brother is thinking about that woman, otherwise why is there a smile on the corner of his mouth?"

"woman?".As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhao Wuming came to his senses, smiled wryly and shook his head: "Brother, don't make fun of younger brother."

"Brother, I didn't tease you. I think there are many good women in Zhao Guo. Now you are not young, are you... ".Zhao Yu suddenly showed that he wanted to be a matchmaker.

Zhao Wuming was so frightened that he quickly interrupted: "Brother, the most important thing at this time is hunting, how can we talk about it?"

Xue Qian on the side became interested instead: "I think what the crown prince said is reasonable, does the fourth son need to introduce one or two for you?"

"One or two."Under the joint efforts of the two, Zhao Wuming was quickly defeated: "Brother, brother Xue, in front of the juniors, you must save me some face."

"It seems that the fourth brother is thin-skinned, wait a few days..."Zhao Yu decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue and settle the matter.

Where did Zhao Wuming dare to let Zhao Yu continue, and hurriedly interrupted again: "Brother, safari, safari is the most important."

"Okay, okay".Seeing Zhao Wuming's appearance, Zhao Yu immediately stopped talking about that topic and looked at Zhao Yong and Xue Zimo: "During the hunting, will you act alone or with us?"

"Acting Alone".Zhao Yong replied without thinking, how restrained it must be to be with the elders.

Xue Qian looked at the two with some concern: "Is it dangerous to go hunting alone?"

"Father, I, and my grandson went hunting together. There are thousands of people here, so how could they be in danger?"Xue Zimo explained to Xue Qian.

Seeing that Xue Qian still wanted to speak up, Zhao Yu immediately persuaded him: "Captain Xue, it should be fine for them to hunt together."

"Forget it, be careful when you go hunting."Xue Qian told the two of them, then turned his horse's head and looked behind him: "Separate out ten people to protect my grandson and my son from hunting."

"Follow orders".The private soldiers behind Xue Qian divided 20 people to stand behind Xue Zimo and Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yu saw Xue Qian ordering the private soldiers in his own mansion, and also ordered the guards in front: "Divide 20 people to follow my son and Xue Zimo."

"Follow orders".The guards of the Prince's Mansion took orders, and 20 people also walked out.

Zhao Wuming looked at the two and smiled.He said that there is nothing wrong with hunting alone, but in the end he hurriedly sent more guards: "It is not bad to let my nephew and the others go hunting alone to exercise their abilities. Big Brother, Brother Xue, you are so close to the enemy, isn't it a little too much?"

"What the fourth brother said is, looking at the front is our manpower, how can there be bad guys sneaking in."Although Zhao Yu said so, he didn't mean to let the guards disperse.

Zhao Yong stood on the chariot and bowed to Zhao Yu: "Today we go hunting on horses, even though Yong'er is young, he is willing to give it a try."

"Can".Zhao Yu thought about it, and then agreed.

Xue Zimo was also eager to try, Xue Qian nodded slightly when he saw this.

Seeing that their fathers agreed, the two immediately got off the chariot.The charioteer waved his whip knowingly and drove the chariot aside.

A guard brought two war horses, Zhao Yong and Xue Zimo got on the horses, without bothering to salute.He stumbled and walked forward with the forty guards behind him.

Zhao Wuming looked at the backs of the two as they went away, and looked at Zhao Yu and Xue Qian: "It seems that the two nephews are not skilled in riding war horses, but why do you agree to them riding?"

"Just now you said to train their abilities, but you are not training them at this time."Zhao Yu joked to Zhao Wuming, and then explained: "There are private soldiers and guards behind them, and they fall off the horse a few times at most, and there will be no serious problems."

"Prince, Fourth Young Master, my son and the others have gone far away now, shouldn't it be time for the three of us to compete?"Xue Qian interjected that there was a desire to compete with them in his eyes.

Zhao Yu seemed to have reacted, and without making a sound, he quickly patted the horse's back and roared away with the guards of the Prince's Mansion behind him, his voice drifting along the wind: "What Captain Xue said makes sense, let's compare at sunset, whose prey is it?" More".

"Prince, you are cheating."Seeing Zhao Yu go away, Xue Qian became anxious and patted the horse's back hard.He also didn't say goodbye to Zhao Wuming, and hurriedly went hunting.

Zhao Wuming looked at the two people who were almost cheating, showing a dumbfounding expression.

Sun Buer interjected behind him: "My lord, shall we also go hunting at this time?"

"Should go."Zhao Wuming patted the horse's back lightly, the horse's hooves walked forward slowly, and then gradually became faster.

Seeing Zhao Wuming leave immediately, Sun Buer hurriedly dissuaded him: "My lord, don't forget what we went through when we bid farewell to Fan Shun."

"Is there really a bold person?"Zhao Wuming was startled, pulled the rein and stopped moving forward.

Sun Bu'er patted the horse's back lightly, and walked slowly: "Whether the lord has it or not, I can't wait."

"No, there are thousands of people hunting here. Once the guards are dispatched, it will be suspicious. Even if you meet the perpetrator, you must be cautious when dispatching the guards to avoid unnecessary disasters."Zhao Wuming thought about it and immediately vetoed it.The relocation of the city made it unthinkable to deploy troops. Once others see it, it will cause endless disasters.

Sun Buer looked at the woods in front of him, thinking of the scene of being attacked that day, his heart moved: "My lord, you can go to a remote place and call in your own guards. If you encounter danger, you can immediately run to call in troops. In this way, even if you are discovered, you will be safe." It seems reasonable."

"Alright, I'll leave this matter to you. Gu will go hunting first, and you will come to look for it later."Zhao Wuming gave instructions to Sun Buer.

Sun Bu bowed on his horse: "No."

Zhao Wuming was afraid of hitting his horse's back, so he roared away with dozens of personal guards.

The horseshoe galloped, the birds and beasts in the woods had already scattered, Zhao Wuming looked around but there was no one there, he could only pat the horse's back and gallop forward.

Zhao Yong in front subconsciously slapped the horse's back hard, and the chariot suddenly sped up with a painful neigh.

Zhao Yong was startled, he firmly pulled the reins, and the horse shuttled through the woods, leaping forward without warning.Zhao Yong tilted his body and fell off the horse, touching his butt in pain.

Xue Zimo turned pale in shock and hurriedly got off his horse, and forty private guards stopped: "Wang Sun, how are you?"

"pain".Zhao Yong stood up with Xue Zimo's support, looking at the snorting war horse beside him, he became very angry.

Xue Zimo covered his mouth and smiled: "Wang Sun Hao Yaxing is still angry with the war horse."

"It's just you, we are the same, why don't you try to speed up on the horse later."Zhao Yong glared at Xue Zimo angrily.

Xue Zimo shook his head quickly when he heard this: "Okay, why should I speed up the horse? Look at how tired those private soldiers and guards are from running. If we speed up, wouldn't it be a burden for them?"

"Pretending, speaking and talking, you are actually afraid."Zhao Yong directly dismantled Xue Zimo's disguise.

Xue Zimo retorted: "We still have time to learn how to ride a horse, just ride slowly. Why bother to learn today."

"I have to learn today alone."Zhao Yong's desire to be strong and competitive arose, and he didn't care about the pain in his buttocks, so he got on the horse directly: "Zimo, if you are afraid, take these private soldiers and guards and chase slowly."

Before Xue Zimo could answer, Zhao Yong slapped the horse's back again, and the horse neighed and galloped towards the dense forest ahead.

Xue Zimo jumped on the horse in a hurry, just about to slap the horse's back hard, but then thought of Zhao Yong's fall from the horse.I couldn't help but shuddered, and could only let the horse walk slowly.

There was a dense sound of horseshoes from behind, Xue Zimo looked back subconsciously, and saw Zhao Wuming as if he had seen a savior: "The fourth son and Wang Sun rode a horse and went forward alone. I, these private soldiers and guards couldn't keep up. superior".

"When did this happen".Hearing Xue Zimo's voice, Zhao Wuming pulled the reins and the horse stopped.Dozens of soldiers behind him also quickly stopped their horses.

Xue Zimo pointed in the direction of Zhao Yong's departure: "Wang and Sun walked for about a minute."

"One quarter of an hour?".Zhao Wuming thought for a while, looked forward, and saw that there was a trace of worry in the dense forest: "There may be wild beasts in the dense forest ahead, it is too dangerous to be alone. Leave one person here to wait for Sun Buer to tell him the location, and the rest Waiting for someone to go alone."

"promise".A personal guard dismounted and waited on the spot, Zhao Wuming slapped the horse's back heavily, and galloped away with dozens of personal guards.
