"Damn it, these little mice are actually more difficult to deal with than the elephants above!"
Ding Xiang gritted her teeth and dodged the attack of a mute guard, but was immediately entangled by another one. Her men were also blocked by Sanqi and their companions, and were unable to come to her side for a while.
Not everyone in such a large military camp was aware of the movement here. Some people had even woken up from their sleep and started to look over here.
However, sharecroppers are sharecroppers, and they are not the same as a well-trained army that obeys orders.
They originally joined the Green Forest Army to eat and escape suffering. Now they have some food, but there are no other benefits.
They were still frightened to ask them to work hard for the chaos in front of them and rush forward to fight the secret guards here who were obviously very skilled.
So these people invariably chose to hide and watch, or lie back and pretend that they had never woken up.
Finally, one of Ding Xiang's men couldn't bear it anymore and said:
"They're all watching in the dark, right? Wait! I won't skin you until I finish dealing with these bastards!"
As soon as these words came out, several Green Forest Army soldiers who were close at that time turned pale, obviously frightened by the other party's words.
They had been with the army for some time, and knew that the strict discipline here was cruel to deserters, so they couldn't help but hesitate whether to go out.
Seeing that these country bumpkins were shaken, another person under Ding Xiang also said loudly:
"What are you doing standing still? Why don't you go up and help the Commander-in-Chief repel the enemy? As long as the Commander-in-Chief has nothing to do tonight, everyone involved in protecting him will be heavily rewarded!"
If it is said that there must be brave men under this heavy reward, then alarmism is sometimes a good choice.
"If you just stand there and wait, you will be the ones who die after we die in battle!"
So after saying these words, the Green Forest Army who were watching finally took up their weapons.
Ding Xiang is a direct descendant of Wu Kui, so some of her soldiers are equipped with swords, not just hoes and sickles.
Therefore, when they were surrounded with swords like this, they really had the aura of an army.
However, this momentum was only apparent, because before they even got into the battle circle, Sanqi, who was aware of the movement here, locked onto them.
Sanqi was doing other things, but temporarily stopped to block Ding Xiang, and threw out the two white porcelain bottles in his arms with his backhand.
Seeing two white porcelain bottles exploding at the feet of the Green Forest Army, he attacked Lilac again.
This was a treasure given to him by the two men, saying that he would use it when he was running for his life or when he was outnumbered.
He didn't know its effect, but after what he had experienced before, he had unconsciously believed that they would not lie to him.
So just when the two secret guards were confused, a wisp of green smoke floated out of the broken white porcelain bottle. The smoke was slightly darker, and it was obviously not a good thing.
"what is this!"
"Old Wei, what's wrong with you? Why did you fall? Don't scare me!"
"Er fool, Er fool, are you okay?"
"It's poisonous, that smoke is poisonous!"
"Back off!"
…
Amidst a burst of chaotic screams, the men at the front suddenly fell down, scaring everyone behind them into turning pale and retreating.
Obviously, this green smoke can be dispersed by the wind, because those who retreated slowly also fell down, so that all those who retreated speeded up their pace again.
This scene not only stunned Ding Xiang and others, but even Sanqi, who threw the white porcelain bottle out with his own hands, did not expect it.
But I have to say that this is great news for them.
The only senior secret guard who had not yet suffered a defeat was not a fool, and he immediately shouted loudly:
"We are here to take the life of Ding Xiang, the fifth commander of the Green Forest Army, on the orders of our master. As long as you don't come forward to stop us, we will not take action against you. But if you insist on protecting her, we will not show mercy to you. Got it!"
He seemed to be afraid that these men from sharecropping backgrounds would not understand what he meant, so he spoke very carefully, appearing to be more patient than he usually did when dealing with Sanqi and others.
And his patience did work. At least the tenant farmers who retreated no longer had the worries they had before.
Think about it, there are at least a thousand people in their team. Even if these people can kill their leader, there is no need to kill them all.
Yes, there are many of them, and if they swarm up, they can help the commander to capture them all.
But what happens after we take it?
Do they still have the chance to receive rewards?
I'm afraid this really depends on luck...
Judging from the strange burst of green smoke just now, it is really difficult for them to have such luck.
It's not that there aren't brave men in the military camp with so many people, but the situation here has taken a turn for the worse, and the green forest troops who are a little further away haven't had time to come over.
The people who can walk in the forefront right now are the ones who are usually ostracized or don't know how to get around, so they are always assigned to do night watch.
How sincere can they be to Ding Xiang and others?
So Ding Xiang and others are now reaping the consequences.
"As expected, they are all a bunch of useless things! Keep the green hills here, and don't worry about running out of firewood. Don't be reluctant to fight. Follow my commander and fight out immediately!"
After blocking Sanqi's attack again, Ding Xiang, whose left hand was already stained red with blood, finally decided to retreat.
She admitted that she somewhat underestimated Zhou Zhiyuan and his group, especially the mute guard in front of her who was younger than her. This person was simply not at the level of a mute guard.
After all, how could a normal mute guard sneak into the military camp quietly and catch her by surprise when she was about to win?
But her people heard what she said, and everyone on Sanqi's side naturally heard it too.
So while the opponent tried their best to kill them, they also became more and more courageous and refused to give up.
The mission is about to be completed, and their leaders have given instructions here. Even if the things today are not accomplished, they will be accomplished.
"No, let's hold on here first, and I'll ask you to find a way to leave quickly!"
Finally, a close friend gritted his teeth and called for Lilac, and with the first one came the second one.
They are all people who have followed Ding Xiang through life and death, some were transferred from Wu Kui, and some were trained by Ding Xiang himself.
At this moment, they were obviously fighting for their lives in exchange for Ding Xiang leaving safely.
No, someone quickly joined forces to resist the attack from the opposite side, forcing two people to step forward to block the 375 people.
The strength of these two people was already higher than that of Sanqi and others. Now they fought desperately and directly restrained the other four mute guards who were following Sanqi.
Ding Xiang, who seized the opportunity, dodged and fled out of the military camp as quickly as possible.
When she returns to their Green Forest Army station, she must let her father make Zhou Zhiyuan look good!
"Sanqi! Stop chasing Sanqi! You alone are no match for her!"
Seeing Sanqi raising his sword, he chased after her, and the only remaining senior secret guard became anxious.
Sanqi saved his life tonight. If the other party hadn't been smart enough to find the hiding place and came out with support in time, I'm afraid most of them would have to deal with it here tonight.
So he selfishly wanted Sanqi not to pursue her, because he really didn't think Sanqi was Ding Xiang's opponent.
The master's order is important, but isn't it a bit silly to do it knowing you can't do it?
However, the mute Sanqi would not answer him at all, and had no time to answer him.
Because the moment Ding Xiang ran away, Sanqi heard a voice telling him to catch up.
So he chased without hesitation, and soon he and Ding Xiang ran out of the military camp in front of them.
As the scenery around him became more and more unfamiliar, and the noise of the military camp in the distance could hardly be heard, Lilac, who was running at the front, finally stopped.
It's not that she can't run anymore, but she is curious about why Sanqi keeps following him. Isn't he afraid of death?
"Little mute, don't think that you can really compete with this commander just because you have a magic weapon in your hand. Just now there were four people plundering the formation for you, and that's why I was a little bit afraid of you, but now? There are still people who can help you. What?"
Ding Xiang hated Sanqi in front of her. It was him who ruined her good deeds, causing her to lose such a big person in front of her men and soldiers.
Morale and prestige have always been the most important things in the army, but she lost them just before leading the troops to fight because the people in front of her lost them.
Hateful, so hateful.
Sanqi couldn't speak, let alone make blind gestures with Ding Xiang in front of her.
Because he knew very well how the previous secret guard leader died. The woman in front of him was cunning and cunning, so he had to be extremely careful.
"Oh, how could I forget that a little mute like you can't speak at all. Poor, so pitiful!"
After biting down the word "pity" heavily, Ding Xiang raised her hand and threw several silver needles at Sanqi. The tips of the silver needles turned green this time, which was obviously poisoned.
Sanqi has been paying attention to Ding Xiang's movements, but after all, he is not Ding Xiang's enemy. No matter how good his eyes are or how flexible his body is, he can't keep up with Ding Xiang.
Therefore, he could only watch as several silver needles magnified in front of him, about to pierce him.
He could avoid the vital points, but those needles were poisonous.
At this moment, a strong wind roared, and the silver needle that was supposed to be stuck on Sanqi actually turned around and directly passed by Sanqi.
"who!"
Her eyes widened suddenly. At this moment, no matter how stupid Ding Xiang was, she would still be able to realize that there were more than just the two of them here.
When she shouted like this, Qi Xiao and Feng Xi, who had been staying in the dark, no longer bothered to hide.
So Ding Xiang soon saw a man and a woman walking out not far away. They were obviously dressed in cloth and their faces were yellow, but they still looked extraordinary, making people want to take a few more glances.
Ding Xiang was very sure that she didn't know them, but it was because she didn't know her that she felt irritated, and she regretted her decision to stop and confront Sanqi midway.
Because she had not noticed these two people after following them for so long, one can imagine the strength of the other party...
If she faced them now, she would definitely not have an advantage as she was already injured and was alone.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiang immediately put on a smiling face, preparing to buy time for herself or negotiate terms with the two people in front of her in a tone that did not reveal joy or anger.
Unexpectedly, the girl among the two actually spoke first:
"Who else could it be? I am your father, ever-changing."
clove:"?"
