Chapter 1424 Horse Tramples Yellow Turbans to Capture Little Zhu
"Don't kill me... I'm Zhu Yuanzhang's son... My father is the leader of the Yellow Turban Army... If you let me go, my father will give you a lot of money... a lot of food... and beautiful women..."
Zhu Shuang trembled at the sight of the white tiger and froze, only wailing incessantly.
"Zhu Yuanzhang's son? Perfect, let's start settling the score your father owed our Hengzhou army with you first."
Upon hearing this, Baihu's lips curled into a cold smile.
As he spoke, he used the White Tiger World-Slaying Spear to lift Zhu Shuang by the collar. Although Zhu Shuang was pampered and heavy, he was as easy as lifting a chick in front of the White Tiger.
The reason Baihu didn't kill him was to extract information from him, so he couldn't let him die like that. At this moment, the shouts of the Yellow Turban army could be heard from afar, indicating that Xu Da had already mobilized his troops and were chasing after them.
"Xu Da, thank you for this generous gift."
Baihu sneered at the direction the Yellow Turban army was pursuing, then mounted his horse. The white tiger steed neighed and carried Baihu and Zhu Shuang, galloping towards the western gap.
The figure in white armor and on a white horse quickly disappeared into the night, leaving behind only corpses scattered on the ground, a burning camp, and the Yellow Turban Army pursuers who could only look on in disarray.
At this moment, Xu Da stood on the rear watchtower, looking in the direction where the White Tiger had gone, his face ashen, the command flag in his hand creaking loudly.
"Chase him! Chase him! Even if we have to chase him to the ends of the earth, we must bring the Second Young Master back!"
Xu Da roared, his voice full of frustration. He never expected that Zhu Shuang was good for nothing but causing trouble. Wouldn't it have been better if he had just stayed in his tent?
He insisted on getting close to the White Tiger and ended up being captured alive!
Zhu Shuang was, after all, Zhu Yuanzhang's second son. If anything happened to him, he, as the commander-in-chief, would also be held responsible. However, the White Tiger Cavalry was too fast, and with the cover of night, it was virtually impossible for the Yellow Turban Army's pursuers to catch up.
Xu Da could only watch helplessly as the white tiger's figure disappeared into the night, his heart filled with a sense of powerlessness.
This night raid dealt a devastating blow to the Yellow Turban Army. Their main camp on the left flank was breached, their supplies were damaged, two generals were killed, and their lord's second son, Zhu Shuang, was captured alive. They suffered a complete and utter defeat.
Baihu, with Zhu Shuang by his side, quickly caught up with the retreating Baihu cavalry.
When Tian Zaibiao and the others saw that their commander had not only returned safely, but had also captured a young man dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, they were overjoyed.
"General, you are mighty! Who is this young man? Judging by his clothes and appearance, he's someone important!"
Tian Zaibiao rode forward and asked with a smile.
"Zhu Yuanzhang's second son, Zhu Shuang."
"Tie him up and keep a close watch on him. Once we get back to the Hengzhou army camp, he'll be put to good use."
The white tiger said calmly.
"What? Zhu Yuanzhang's son?"
Tian Zaibiao and the others widened their eyes in surprise.
Unexpectedly, this night raid not only caught the Yellow Turban Army off guard, but also captured such a big fish alive. If this big fish could provide some important information, then the achievement would be enormous!
Afterwards, Baihu led Baihuqi towards Qingshi Valley for a while.
"who?"
A series of orderly footsteps came from the darkness in the distance, accompanied by the clanging of metal instruments. Tian Zaibiao gripped his spear more tightly, alert.
"It's us! Zhao Gongming and Qin Niu are here!"
A familiar shout came from the darkness, followed by thousands of torches lighting up and moving towards them like a fire dragon. It was the Hengwu soldiers who were retreating after completing their feint attack.
Zhao Gongming led the charge, his iron whip slung over his shoulder, his face dusty with the weariness of battle. Behind him, Qin Niu, wielding a twelve-foot-long steel spear, his tiger-like eyes wide open, burst into laughter upon seeing the White Tiger Cavalry. "General White Tiger, we've finally caught up! That old fox Xu Da hasn't caught up, has he?"
The two teams quickly joined forces. The Hengwu soldiers lived up to their reputation as Wu Qi's elite troops. Although they had caused a great disturbance in the Yellow Turban army's vanguard camp, they remained orderly during the retreat. The soldiers were in neat formations, and even their breathing was synchronized. Baihu nodded in approval. Wu Qi's ability to make a name for himself in Wuzhou with this team was indeed well-deserved.
"Governor Wu's plan was ingenious, and Generals Zhao and Qin's feigned attack was effective, which is why we were able to succeed this time."
Baihu cupped his hands to the two of them, his tone carrying a hint of approval.
"General, you are too kind. We are just making a show of things. The real battles will be fought by your White Tiger Cavalry."
Zhao Gongming waved his hand.
Then his gaze suddenly turned curiously to Zhu Shuang, who was tied to the horse. Qin Niu, who was standing next to him, also came over and carefully examined Zhu Shuang by the light of the torch. He saw that although the boy was tied up tightly and his face was covered with tears, his Shu brocade robe, the jade pendant at his waist, and his pampered air were not something that ordinary soldiers could have.
"Good heavens! Isn't this Zhu Shuang, Zhu Yuanzhang's second son? There's no mistake! It's definitely this kid!"
Qin Niu stared at Zhu Shuang's face for a long time, then suddenly slapped his thigh and burst into laughter.
These words caused an uproar among the surrounding soldiers, who all gathered around to watch the spectacle.
Qin Niu was previously a general of the Yellow Turban Army and had even temporarily served as the general of the Yellow Turban Army in Wuzhou. He was acquainted with Zhu Yuanzhang, a disciple of the great teacher, and had met many of the people around Zhu Yuanzhang.
“Back when I was in the Yellow Turban Army, I fought alongside General Rengong and saw this kid a few times. Back then, he dressed like a peacock and always had a bunch of followers with him. He abused Zhu Yuanzhang’s power and acted like a tyrant. I remember him very well!”
"Look at his nose and eyes, he's practically a carbon copy of Zhu Yuanzhang, he's definitely Zhu Yuanzhang's son!"
As Qin Niu spoke, he pointed at Zhu Shuang's face, speaking with great conviction.
Zhu Shuang's face turned pale and then red from what he said. He wanted to retort, but he was still recovering from the blow Bai Hu had just delivered with the spear shaft, so he could only sob and whimper, unable to speak.
"I never expected this kid to actually run to the front lines, and we even captured him alive. This is like a pillow being delivered when we were dozing off!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Gongming's eyes lit up, and the twenty-four Sea-Stabilizing Pearls jingled in the brocade pouch at his waist.
"That's right! This kid was a real troublemaker in the Yellow Turban Army. I heard he ravaged many people in the Wuzhou area, stealing a lot of money and beautiful women. Now that he's fallen into our hands, it's a good opportunity to rid the people of this scourge!"
"But speaking of which, what does the general intend to do with him? Kill him outright, or bring him back to the camp for interrogation?"
Qin Niu echoed.
“Killing him would be too easy. This kid is Zhu Yuanzhang’s second son. He must know a lot of secrets about the Yellow Turban Army, such as where the grain and fodder are stored, the subsequent battle plans, and the specific level of support that the Taiping Sect provides to the Yellow Turban Army.”
"After bringing him back to the main camp, we will hand him over to the people of Luo Wang for interrogation. We should be able to extract a lot of useful information from him."
Baihu looked calmly at Zhu Shuang and spoke slowly.
Everyone nodded in agreement. The Luo Wang's interrogation methods were notoriously powerful. Even if Zhu Shuang was stubborn, he would definitely not be able to withstand it. They would surely obtain a lot of valuable intelligence, which would be of great benefit to dealing with the Yellow Turban Army later.
"Alright, we shouldn't stay here any longer. Xu Da's pursuers could arrive at any moment. Let's leave as soon as possible and return to Governor Wu's camp."
The white tiger glanced at the sky and addressed the crowd.
The White Tiger Cavalry and the Hengwu Soldiers then joined forces and galloped toward Wu Qi's garrison camp. The White Tiger Cavalry led the way, while the Hengwu Soldiers provided cover from behind. The procession was vast and mighty, like a black dragon, and soon disappeared into the night.
The Yellow Turban Army pursuers behind them ultimately failed to catch up with this elite force and could only watch helplessly as they disappeared into the distance.
