With the sword flashing, Lao Lu regretted a little. With him and these dozen ordinary men without armor or bows fighting against dozens of Qiling border troops wearing scale armor and fully equipped with armor, it can be said that they have no chance of winning, let alone breaking out of the encirclement to help Yun. Zhong.
In fact, in his opinion, Yun Zhong's move was undoubtedly the best choice: if both sides faced the enemy, if an archer with extremely strong archery skills locked up the position, his life and the lives of these men would only matter. Between the reciprocation of people's bows and strings, not to mention the dozens of soldiers in the army standing in front of them.
The young man braved the iron arrows and rushed straight into the pavilion, probably just to give these dozen people some room to breathe and maneuver. In this case, he, Lao Lu, had to help him no matter what.
However, what made him most angry was that the swords were fighting in the stone pavilion and the sound shook the sky. Why hadn't the head master and Lao Sanjin noticed that for almost half an hour, not to mention Lao Sanjin came to rescue him? Never seen it either.
In desperation, Lao Lu still led the dozen or so men to forcefully break out of the encirclement. Although there was some risk involved in striking a stone with an egg, it was better than sitting back and waiting to die.
"It seems that I still underestimated this border military colonel. The number of people dispatched this time is much more than I thought." The masked man got off the stone pavilion. Not long after, he heard a loud noise behind him and shook his head. Shaking his head, he said to himself, "The border army led by the miscellaneous captains is probably only on the thirties and forties. Most of the military power of the frontier armies still falls in the hands of the four town generals. Can these nearly a hundred people be mobilized? , although some rules have been broken, but it has to be said that he is capable."
When Liang Jun was dispatching his troops, he could see clearly that the defenders on this side of the mountain were indeed only a few dozen, but in the evening, a soldier from Yi Zhang came to the other side of the mountain, saying he was bringing some chrysanthemum wine to everyone to taste. After tasting it, he entered Liang's army tent and did not mount his horse until half an hour later.
"I originally thought about asking for some more manpower from General Zhennan, but the old man has never dealt with you, but I didn't expect that Liang Xiao's ability is extraordinary. Since he has such ability, it's better to hold on for a while, so that I can work with him. Old friends are reminiscing about old times, and I really can't bear it if I die here without knowing anything." The man took off his visor and threw it on the muddy mountain road, looking at the piece of wooden visor as if it were a piece of wood. Ye Zhou swayed straight down Wuling Slope. Countless raindrops from the sky hit my face, and I didn't feel the chill at all. On the contrary, the coolness that hit me made me feel quite refreshed.
The man walked slowly and soon reached the front of the caravan.
The night rain was gradually getting lighter. Someone in the caravan wiped the blood on his face. He accidentally looked up and saw the man coming slowly. He was about to wave and shout, but was hurried away by an armored sergeant with quick eyes and hands beside him. The knife cut into half of his arm, and he lay down on the ground without saying a word and passed out.
Lao Lu really miscalculated this time.
At the front of the caravan, it was not much easier because the leader and Lao Sanjin were in charge. On the contrary, the situation was now more tense. Even the leader, a scholar who was not familiar with martial arts, suffered from several wounds.
It turned out that after Sun Chai left not long ago, a lot of people fled from the front of the caravan. This group of people were all dressed as businessmen. As they ran, they shouted that a huge boulder was rolling down in front of them. They ignored the dissuasion of everyone in the caravan. He ran back desperately. When Lao Sanjin saw that these people were all scared out of their wits, he did not say anything to stop them. Instead, he allowed the group of refugees to run away. Unexpectedly, the group of men who claimed to be refugees had not yet taken a few steps down the mountain. , then they all turned around and drew their swords, and struck the unprepared people in the caravan with their swords.
In an instant, nearly half of the twenty or so people at the front of the caravan were lost. This group of sergeants who looked like merchants were very ruthless in their attacks.
The man who took off his mask waved his hand towards the military armors surrounding the caravan, took out a waist badge and waved it, indicating to everyone that they should gather their troops first and fight later.
The master gritted his teeth and pulled out an arrow feather from his ribs, threw it into the muddy water, and glared at the man who walked straight to the opposite side, "Han Xi, you are really not a good bird."
The man was Han Xi, who had disappeared without a trace since the beginning of the fight. He threw off his visor at this moment, which immediately aroused consternation among the people in the caravan, followed by curses.
"Whether it's a good bird or not, you don't have to say." It seemed that after this battle, Han Xi, who was a bit unclear at first, became more lively than before. He looked at the remaining dozen people with a smile. Yingying.
"When you traveled north and south with another caravan, you said you encountered a bandit's nest by chance. As a result, all fifty or sixty members of the caravan were dead, and you were the only one who escaped. Let me ask you, what happened today, and what happened? Was it similar back then?" The head of the house suppressed his anger and shouted at Han Xi, who was sitting across from him, who was taking a rest.
"What nonsense? Just hit him right through with one hammer. Take out his heart and see if it's black or red." Lao Sanjin has always had a violent temper. He raised his blood-stained hammers and was about to attack. He went out to fight Han Xi for his life. In the battle just now, Lao Sanjin was undoubtedly the most brave. He smashed the brains of three or four soldiers with two hammers in his hands. He still had some strength left, but now he was held back by the leader.
Han Xi laughed wantonly when he heard the leader's words, "I didn't expect that you are the only one who knows such a big caravan. When I first came here, these old brothers in the caravan, everyone saw me It's like avoiding the god of plague, saying that if you meet such an unlucky person when you go out, you will inevitably be harmed by me in the end. Because of this, I think I didn't win the title of Lao Gui when I went to the old house. I was still a little angry at the time, But if you think about it carefully, it's true." After that, Han Xi took out the waist badge just now and waved it at the master, "This waist badge has green bird and yellow crane tattoos on it. Even ordinary people in Qiling know this. You must also know the meaning of the emblem."
The style of the official robe of the Prime Minister of Qi today was hand-picked by the Emperor of Qi Ling. On it is a green bird trying to step on the back of a yellow crane. The green bird means exquisite and thorough, and the yellow crane means solemn and old-fashioned.
This green bird and yellow crane waist medal is held by only three people in Qi Ling, and their positions are all secretly beside Prime Minister Qi.
"As Prime Minister Qi gets older, the gravel in his eyes becomes more itchy. Naturally, servants like us have to blow it for Prime Minister Qi. It was the same last time." Han Xi's expression did not change, and he reached down the slope. Pointing, "I think you, the head of the house, have seen the young man's portrait when passing through the city. You two have always been cautious and cautious. Why didn't you drive that young man out of the caravan earlier, so as not to end up like this?" The sight of Dao disappearing.”
The head of the house was silent for a moment, looking at the scattered cool rain in the mountains, and murmured, "Don't you think that boy is pretty good?"
Han Xi's eyelids moved slightly.
"Although I never thought that such a fatal disaster would happen, I don't want to go back on my promise." Lao Sanjin saw the leader's frivolous steps, so he quickly took the latter's arm and slowly lifted him up.
"This river and lake is no longer what it was back then. There are the imperial court, the government, the Xianjia Cave, and the livelihood is difficult to maintain below. With such a pretty good young man stepping into it, the two of us naturally have to help, at least Look after his disciple for his master. Whether it is to get a few taels of silver or to see his younger self, I have to protect him to the territory of Yizhang."
"You are also a veteran of Jianghu. You should know that for people of our generation, Jianghu is nothing more than rules. If there are no rules in Jianghu, then this Jianghu will be much boring."
Lao Sanjin and the master looked at each other and smiled.
It turns out that you and I are both idiots in the world.
Countless people flock to it, probably because of this.
I have been trapped in money for half my life. When I left, I realized that the autumn wind was hard to cool people's hearts, and the autumn rain also left the fragrance of chrysanthemums.
You have to leave a seed for the world.
