Chapter 293 Crazy Plan
Yu Hao naturally would not know the news of the princess' escape. In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and Yu Hao and Lu Xiaoxiao also arrived outside Yujia Pass smoothly.
At this time, many studs were waiting outside the pass. As time went by, more and more studs rushed over, but they were not seen by Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An for a long time.
The gathering time set by Yu Hao was Mao hour, but now several hours have passed. Seeing that the sun was about to set, Yu Hao couldn't help but start to worry.
(One hour in ancient times is equal to two hours in modern times.)
"Report to the Lord, the escorts have been assembled, and there are only two thousand people, but I saw the figures of the third prince and General Lu." After counting the number of people, Datou reported to Yu Haohui.
There is no need to say much about the discipline of the escort. Not only did there be no escape in the middle of the journey, but no one was late and everyone arrived on time.
"I have already greeted the general of Yujia Pass. You take your brothers into the city to replenish supplies. We will set off in an hour." Yu Hao ordered.
Yu Hao had a pass order issued by the emperor himself, so the guards of Yujia Pass naturally did not dare to neglect them. They had already prepared enough dry food and fresh water, and were waiting for the escort to get it!
It was getting late at this time. As the sun was about to set, Yu Hao had to lead the escort through the Western Regions before the next sunrise to reach the territory of the Huns.
After all, the Western Regions are not the territory of Daqian, and there are also various tribes in the Western Regions. If they find a team of cavalry entering their territory, it may cause unnecessary conflict.
Only by moving at night can we pass through the Western Regions without knowing it and head straight to the Akagi River of the Huns!
So Yu Hao planned to wait for Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An for another hour. If they hadn't arrived after an hour, Yu Hao had to set out first.
On the other side, Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An were riding horses and constantly shuttled through the woods. Both of them were very anxious at this time and were desperately slapped their horses ass, wishing they could arrive at Yujia Pass in the next second.
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't insisted on staying in a hotel, I wouldn't have met that bad-hearted boss lady!" Zhu An blamed himself.
It turned out that one day ago, Zhu An and Lu Xiaoming passed by an inn. They saw that it was getting late and the people and horses were exhausted, so Zhu An suggested staying in the inn for one night and continuing on the road the next day.
Lu Xiaoming didn't think much about it. Anyway, they were not far from Yujia Pass, and the remaining time was enough for them to arrive at Yujia Pass on time, so he agreed.
What the two of them never expected was that this inn was a black store!
After the two of them fell asleep, the boss secretly pulled the horses in the stable and sold them. He even wanted to kill them and rob them of their money.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoming lived in the military camp all year round and was very vigilant. He woke up after hearing the movement and cleaned up all the boss's wife and her men in a few seconds.
Although the black store was completely eradicated, the two of them had been sold to some extent.
As a result, the two of them hiked for a long time before they bought two horses from the landlord's house in a village at a high price.
Although the two of them were desperately rushing to the road, the time they had been wasted was too long, and they still missed the time to gather.
"Third Prince, how can you blame you? I have a copy of the hotel. It's all because of my poor vigilance that made the traitor sell our horses! But don't worry, although my elder brother is scheduled to gather at Mao hour, he will have to wait until night falls before he sets off from Yujia Pass. As long as we arrive at Yujia Pass before this, it will not be too late!" Lu Xiaoming said firmly.
This is the first time Lu Xiaoming has the opportunity to fight against the Huns. He will never miss this good opportunity to make achievements!
After hearing Lu Xiaoming's words, Zhu An was relieved a lot, and his eyes also showed a sense of firmness in the next second.
In order to allow him to participate in this operation, Yu Hao took him out of the palace at the risk of being punished by the emperor.
If he missed it like this, he would not only be sorry for Xiaoyu who had just passed the door, but also for Yu Hao's kindness!
At the same time, Yu Hao saw that the time had arrived, so he did not dare to waste time any more and immediately ordered to set off.
Before leaving, Yu Hao left a letter to the general of Yujia Pass, asking the general to wait for Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An to arrive and hand it over to them.
One hour passed, and Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An came late. When they saw horse hoof prints everywhere outside Yujia Pass, they could not see a horse. They were stunned. Could it be that Yu Hao had already set off?
Lu Xiaoming naturally didn't know that Yu Hao had set out before nightfall to take advantage of the night to pass through the Western Regions, which could not be delayed.
At this moment, I couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Why couldn't Yu Hao wait for him for a while?
Zhu An also looked bitter. It seemed that Zhu An was destined to be unable to make a comeback for the rest of his life and could only be the useless prince who was confined in the palace.
At this moment, the gate of Yujia Pass slowly opened, and a silver-armored general rode a war horse to the two of them. This person was General Yujia Pass.
"Who are you Lu Xiaoming?"
"I am." Lu Xiaoming replied quickly.
The general nodded, took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Lu Xiaoming, and said, "This is the letter that Prince Yu asked me to pass it to you. They have already set out to let you not chase you anymore, just follow the contents of the letter."
"Thank you!" Lu Xiaoming did not dare to neglect, so he quickly took the letter and opened it and read it.
The next second, Lu Xiaoming's eyes suddenly lit up, and his eyes were filled with shock.
Yu Hao's letter wrote an extremely crazy plan. If this plan can be successful, then Lu Xiaoming's name will definitely be recorded in history, and it is no problem to be named a marquis and a title!
Seeing Lu Xiaoming's excited look, Zhu An was confused and couldn't help but wonder what was written in the letter.
Without time to explain, Lu Xiaoming quickly bowed to the general and said, "General, our horses are exhausted. I wonder if General can help us change two horses?"
The stadiumers arrived at Yujia Pass early in the morning and rested until dark before setting off, so the stadiumers' horses were restored.
But Lu Xiaoming and Zhu An ran all the way. The two horses were already exhausted, and they would have to be exhausted if they ran.
"Of course there is no problem. Come and pick two good horses!" The general waved his hand and said boldly.
Although Yujiaguan is not rich, two war horses can still be used.
Soon, two energetic horses were led by soldiers.
Lu Xiaoming and the other two changed their horses, and after thanking General Chong, they left Yujia Pass directly.
"Xiao Ming, are we going to chase them now?" Zhu An asked in confusion.
Lu Xiaoming smiled mysteriously and said, "Brother and the others have been away for an hour, and now they can't catch up if they want to."
"What should we do then? What did Yu Hao tell you in his letter?" Zhu An was anxious.
Lu Xiaoming did not speak, but handed the letter to Zhu An and blinked at Zhu An again.
