It was only a day to ride and run away, and then out of the land of Guanlong.

    Guanlong is a regional division in Sui and Tang Dynasties. One part is Guannei Road, and the other part is Longyou road.

    The so-called land of the three Jin Dynasties is to go east and cross the Yellow River.

    Since the spring and Autumn period, the land of the three Jin Dynasties has been the place of dispute between the Central Plains and nomadic famous families.

    Datong Prefecture, in particular, has been a place of war since the Western Zhou Dynasty.

    The major dynasties also sent heavy troops again in order to resist the invasion of famous nomadic tribes in the north.

    Even though Datang is brave, good at fighting and powerful, it has sent 50000 garrison troops to take charge again, which shows its strategic significance.

    Tang Hao led 300 light riders on his way. He returned it two days ago. The sky cleared up and the journey was smooth.

    Unexpectedly, when Jinyang came out, the weather suddenly changed and it rained heavily, and the attacking troops had to suspend their steps.

    Tang Hao stood in front of a broken temple and looked at the pouring rain with a frown.

    "Fortunately, the broken temple is quite spacious and can accommodate the 300 soldiers. But now two days have passed and there are still hundreds of miles from Datong."

    If it hadn''t been for the heavy rain, we would have reached Datong in another day, but now everything has been disturbed by the heavy rain!

    Wang Fengbai, who was also standing next to Tang Hao, was also sad.

    "Yes, after the heavy rain, I''m afraid the official road is more muddy, which will delay the trip."

    "If the rain keeps falling, I''m afraid I won''t be able to get to Datong in four or five days."

    Just then the spies sent to report.

    "Report! Tang Xiaoqi, the road ahead is blocked. I''m afraid I can only stay again tonight."

    This sentence undoubtedly extinguished Tang Hao''s hope of arriving in advance. It seemed futile to have planned to go on a journey on foot.

    Tang Hao looked around. One side was surrounded by mountains and lush trees.

    On the way, I also heard Wang Fengbai say that there were bandits in this area, and immediately said in a fierce voice.

    "Light a fire! Be on alert! Watch the horses! Don''t unload armor!"

    At the command, the soldiers found some dry firewood and set fire in the hall.

    Several armour men around the fire glanced at Tang Hao at the door and whispered together.

    "Ah! Do you think the generals are too careful? It''s raining heavily in the wild mountains. They don''t want to unload their armour. How can they sleep?"

    "Alas! After all, I''m still young. I haven''t brought any soldiers and I''m much timid."

    "I once said there was a bandit nest in this area, but I never said that I robbed officers and soldiers. This young general is too cautious."

    Of course, these comments did not fall in Tang Hao''s ears. Even if the soldiers complained, they were just whispering.

    Leaning against the door railing outside the main hall, Tang Hao looked at the torrential rain outside the hall. Tang Hao was in a daze while casually eating Hu cakes.

    military orders are like a mountain!

    If you can''t get to Datong mansion within the specified time, but you have to be dealt with by military law, even Tang Hao himself is no exception.

    It was getting dark.

    A team dressed in coir raincoats, led horses, walked slowly and quietly approached the broken temple.

    The team of nearly 200 people is strong and extremely strong, and all of them are armed.

    The man who took the lead was a middle-aged man, dressed in coir raincoat, hat and heavy knife.

    The one eyed dragon beside the strong man asked softly.

    "Brother, I don''t think there are many officers and soldiers, but they are well equipped."

    The strong man stared at the one eyed dragon and said ruthlessly.

    "What are you afraid of? We''re just robbing some money and horses."

    "What''s more, now in our territory, we know the terrain like the back of our hand. How can these army ruffians think of someone sneaking attack?"

    The one eyed dragon showed a fierce color and said in a deep voice.

    "Boss, we now have 200 people and 100 people to meet. According to the person who gave us money, there are only 300 officers and soldiers in this team. If we can''t, let''s..."

    Then the one eyed dragon made a gesture to wipe his neck.

    The strong man slapped the one eyed dragon on the head and shouted in a low voice.

    "Silly you? The Tang sergeant is brave. If we fight hard, we won''t get any sweets! What''s more, killing the sergeant is the cause of great trouble. If we really annoy the imperial court, send an iron cavalry, not to mention the Erlong mountain head, we''ll die."

    The one eyed dragon touched his chin, frowned and said.

    "That''s right, but I don''t understand this. The money giver is a person with official background. Why should we take action against such a young general?"

    The strong man''s mind is flexible. After a moment of meditation, he has the answer, Tao.

    "This man must be afraid to do it in Chang''an city. He wants to borrow our hand to get rid of this thorn."

    "If so, this young general must still have some weight in Chang''an. We can''t kill these people."

    The strong man paused and drank.

    "Brothers, let''s go on foot. We''ll focus on robbing horses later. Don''t touch those Qiuba as a last resort."

    After that, the coir raincoat men tied the horses, quietly disappeared in the jungle and groped for the hills behind the broken temple.

    Not long after, these coir raincoat people gathered around the hill on one side of the broken temple, and the leading strong man lay down in the grass and looked down.

    In the broken Temple of Nuo University, a few sentinels patrol back and forth at the gate of the temple. Through the broken window of the main hall, they vaguely see several soldiers leaning together for a nap, and horses walking slowly in a room in the West.

    Looking at the fat and healthy horses, the strong man flashed a touch of greed in his eyes and gave a sharp drink.

    "Shoot an arrow!"
