Father, I really don’t want to be the emperor

When the two sides joined together, there were a total of 1,200 people!

Fulin's garrison had more cavalry, 200 men, plus Shoukang's 100 light cavalry, a total of 300 cavalry.

Cavalry has an overwhelming advantage over infantry, and these garrison troops with horses are basically veterans who have retired from the battlefield and have rich combat experience.

Although there are only three hundred cavalry, it is enough to suppress the opponent.

"The cavalry goes first, and the infantry catches up later!"

Ning Fan knew that time was tight, and if he hesitated for a while, the other party might take action in advance.

In that case, Ergou and others would be in danger.

Although Luo Yong had experience in commanding cavalry, he was a foreign monk after all and was not familiar with these local garrison troops. Therefore, Ning Fan asked Fulin's garrison Chang Yuan and Shoukang's garrison Wang Tao to lead their respective armies and attack Hulukou directly.

As for the remaining garrison, they were temporarily commanded by another person, who was only responsible for cutting off the retreat and intercepting the escaping enemies.

The cavalry's all-out attack was very fast, and it didn't take long before the outline of the gourd mouth was visible.

"Assault with all strength, any resisters will be killed without mercy!"

Ning Fan pulled out the Peerless Sword from his waist.

This was the first time Ning Fan participated in a large-scale battle in the cold weapon era after traveling through time. His heartbeat accelerated. Instead of being afraid, he felt excited inside.

The flying shadow horse was much faster than an ordinary horse, and Ning Fan easily ran first.

"Why are there cavalry?"

The more than two hundred soldiers who were ambushing here were dumbfounded.

"Mr. Lu Qian, aren't we here to suppress bandits? Why are the cavalry here?"

The ambushed soldiers immediately realized something was wrong.

Mr. Qian Lu Peng looked extremely ugly. What happened was far beyond his expectation.

By the time he reacted and wanted to lead his army to escape, it was already too late. Two legs could not outrun a four-legged horse.

When Ning Fan led the cavalry to attack Hulukou, he encountered almost no resistance.

More than two hundred people all abandoned their weapons.

"We are soldiers of Tianzhou, don't do anything!"

Many soldiers who were lying in ambush shouted loudly.

Ning Fan sat on his horse and watched with cold eyes. When he saw the weapons and armor on these soldiers, he felt as if he was stabbed in his heart.

"Don't chase the ones who run away. Watch the leaders."

Ning Fan jumped off his horse and walked directly towards the leading people.

These leaders are obviously different in terms of their clothes and weapons.

Seeing Ning Fan and others approaching, Lu Peng, the leader of the ambush, raised his knife and was about to commit suicide. Unexpectedly, Luo Yong's quick eyesight and quick hands snatched the knife from the opponent's hand.

"Want to die? Wait until the nine tribes are executed!"

Luo Yong sneered.

Rebellion has been a capital crime in all dynasties. Not only one person will die, but the whole family will suffer.

Lu Peng led his army to ambush the current prince, which was a definite rebellion, and there was no possibility of a comeback.

At this time, when he heard the words "Zhu Jiu Clan" and other words, his face turned pale with fright and he collapsed on the ground.

When the two school officers next to Lu Peng heard this, they were also frightened and knelt on the ground.

"Wang Shou Bei, Chang Shou Bei, you two can temporarily control these people."

Ning Fan gave orders to Wang Tao and Chang Yuan, but they did not dare to neglect and hurriedly led the people.

At Luo Yong's signal, several soldiers came over and carried the pale Lu Peng and the two school officers to the edge of the cliff.

"Who gave you the courage to ambush the prince?"

Ning Fan stared at Lu Peng coldly.

Prince?

The two elementary school students were so scared that they cried their pants down.

"The order we received was to ambush the bandits, but we didn't even know it was the prince! Your Highness, spare your life! This is really unjust!"

The two small schools kept kowtowing.

Ning Fan carefully observed the expressions of the two people. They didn't look like they were acting. Looking at Lu Peng who was silent, Ning Fan seemed to understand something.

"His Royal Highness is Ning Fan, the sixth prince of the current dynasty. The court has specially appointed His Highness as the imperial envoy for this trip! You are so brave!"

Ning Fan stared at the two primary schools with cold eyes.

After hearing this, the two of them were so frightened that they were shaking like chaff.

"If you really don't know, His Highness will not kill innocent people indiscriminately. You two should restrain your subordinates first. No one is allowed to leave here."

Ning Fan ordered to the two primary schools.

These two people were already frightened. How could they dare to say anything?

If they dare to disobey, the long sword in Luo Yong's hand will immediately cut off their heads.

"What about you, do you know?"

Ning Fan stared at Lu Peng indifferently.

"I don't know, either! Mr. Song ordered me to set up an ambush here, saying he was ambushing the thieves. I never expected that His Highness would be disturbed."

Lu Peng also knelt on the ground.

Unfortunately, his acting skills were too poor, and Ning Fan could tell at a glance that Lu Peng was lying.

What kind of bandit needs two hundred infantry?

Moreover, setting an ambush in such an important place?

No need for Ning Fan to say anything, Luo Yong immediately walked over and put the knife on Lu Peng's neck.

"If you tell the truth now, His Highness may be able to take your life! If you persist in your stubbornness, then the whole family, young and old, will be buried with you."

Luo Yong said fiercely.

The sharp blade directly cut the skin on Lu Peng's neck, and blood flowed directly.

The severe pain filled Lu Peng's heart with fear, and the resistance in his eyes gradually weakened.

"Yes... Master Song asked me to ambush here! He told me that there would be some bandits here, and he showed me that they would kill without mercy... destroy the corpses and eliminate all traces."

Lu Peng trembled and told the truth.

"Which Mr. Song is it?"

Ning Fan sneered.

"Song Chengzhou, Governor of Tianjiang!"

……

Sure enough!

Ning Fan's eyes flashed with sternness. He didn't expect Song Chengzhou to be so bold!

To intercept and kill the imperial envoy is rebellion!

"Your Highness, do we still want to go into the city?"

Luo Yong looked ugly.

The governor of a province wants to rebel...

If the three chief officials of Tianjiang were colluding, then entering the city would be tantamount to death.

"Tianzhou Governor Zhuang Wen should still be trustworthy! He is still alive. There should be no danger for us entering the city for the time being."

Ning Fan judged.

If Song Chengzhou is really determined to rebel, then he must deal with Zhuang Wen, who is not of the same mind as him!

Since Zhuang Wen is alive, it means that Song Chengzhou's rebellion plan has not yet had the opportunity to be implemented, and he probably feels that the time is not yet ripe.

"Your Highness, I think it is better for these garrison troops to be temporarily stationed outside the city and remain stationary. If there is any danger, they can also be used as support!"

Luo Yong said.

More than a thousand garrison troops are indeed quite a force.

But compared with the officers and soldiers of Tianzhou, their combat effectiveness was almost non-existent, not to mention that it would be a problem for more than a thousand people to eat, drink and urinate. Stationing here would also arouse Song Chengzhou's fear and vigilance.

"Forget it! Leave the cavalry to guard these Tianzhou soldiers. Come with me."
