"The matter is critical!" Luo Yangming could no longer care about anything else and shouted at the sergeant, "Something big is going to happen!"
The sergeant also knew that the situation was not good, and immediately said: "Go quickly!" Then he said to several soldiers around him: "Everyone, pay attention, prepare to shoot!"
Luo Yangming shouted: "Brothers, copy the guy!"
When Song Ming climbed to the top of the city, he heard the sound of birdshot and the ensuing roar of fighting. He knew that the pursuers had arrived and there was not much time left. He had to get out of the city as soon as possible - as long as he got out of the city, it would be dark and blind. The thieves have no cavalry, so the two sides are playing hide-and-seek in the wilderness. It is easier for them to escape because they are familiar with the terrain.
However, the soldier who carried Kun Thief ran all the way carrying a living person weighing more than 100 kilograms. When he arrived at the city, he was exhausted and could no longer carry him up the mountain, so he had to be replaced temporarily. This delay lasted for a long time, and finally Xie Kun was tied up and dragged to the top of the city. Another roar came from the tower of Dayunmen. Countless lanterns and torches were swaying towards this direction.
Found! Song Ming's heart tightened, this was too fast! There are only a dozen people climbing up the city wall now, and the rest are still at the base of the city. Even if they all come up, there will only be about thirty people, which is not enough to resist for a long time.
"Quick! Lower the thief down!" he ordered.
At this moment, it was too late to set up the rope ladder calmly. Several soldiers immediately tied the long rope to Xie Erren and dragged it towards the battlement.
Although Xie Erren was made blind and unable to speak, his ears could still hear. After all the ups and downs and the words he heard just now, Xie Erren knew that this group of people wanted to kidnap him out of the city.
The purpose of kidnapping him out of the city is obvious, and he must be handed over to the Ming Dynasty. Unexpectedly, the joke among the elders: sending you to taste Dongchang's father-in-law's method will actually fall on you. When he thought of this, Xie Erren's hands and feet felt cold. Although he was tied up like a rice dumpling, he was still struggling desperately.
When a person is at the critical moment of life and death, he can unleash his great potential. What's more, he had already heard the sound of his pursuers coming, so he struggled desperately. For a time, three or four soldiers were helpless against him.
Seeing this, Song Ming slapped Xie Erren on the head with the backhand of his knife, knocking him unconscious immediately.
"Quick!" he urged.
However, at this time, the people on Dayunmen City Tower had already judged from the fire and the sound of fighting under the city walls that there was something wrong here, and a warning signal rocket rose into the sky. Then the sound of minion volleys pierced the night sky. Three of the soldiers moving on top of the city were knocked down in an instant. The soldiers who were dragging them toward the battlements were also knocked to the ground.
Song Ming was really anxious now, and shouted repeatedly: "Quick! Quick! Let him down quickly!" After that, he waved to the others, "Stop them!"
Seven or eight soldiers who had climbed up to the top of the city immediately came to greet them. Luo Yangming saw someone coming out to fight in the darkness, and knew that his trip was worthwhile. He immediately gave the order, and Zhong Renjiao threw the lanterns and torches in his hands at the same time, instantly lowering the city. The lot is brightly lit. For a moment, the voices of Song Ming and others were clearly illuminated. He even saw Xie Erren who collapsed on the ground.
Luo Yangming couldn't restrain his excitement and shouted loudly: "Brothers, wealth and glory are here today! Everyone, work hard to get there!"
Seeing that the opponent was outnumbered and outnumbered, these hundred or so laborers became more courageous. They each picked up sticks and machetes and charged forward. Although the opponent is an elite soldier, he can't stand up to the number of people here who are brave. It only took a moment for them to be overwhelmed by the superior force workers, and the whole section of the city wall was filled with fighting and shouting. From time to time, people would slip and fall from the top of the city.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Song Ming saw that not only his side of the city had been submerged, but lights and torches were also pouring in from everywhere below the city. He knew that it was impossible to take Zhen Kun away, and the only way to do it was to take his head!
But at this moment, the entire crossing point was already crowded with people, fighting crowds and tumbling bodies everywhere. For a while, Xie Erren's whereabouts could not be found at all. Even if he could be found, it would be extremely difficult to take off his head in this chaotic army. Seeing that there were fewer and fewer soldiers and servants around him, and knowing that he would be trapped if he didn't leave, Song Ming sighed and shouted: "Let's go, let's go!"
After that, he jumped out of the crenel, grabbed the rope and slid down.
Immediately afterwards, several more soldiers grabbed the rope and lowered themselves down the city. The rest were either killed or knocked to the ground and captured alive. At the foot of the city, more than a dozen of Jiang Suo's men were also killed or wounded. Jiang Suo leaned against the city wall, waving his sword desperately to resist. However, there were more and more laborers around him. All of these people were furious, and the sticks fell towards him like raindrops. In a short time, Jiang Suo was captured. His head was bruised and bloody, and the weapon in his hand was lost. He fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
Wen Tietou stopped the others: "This is an official. Capture him and hand him over to the Australians to receive the reward!"
On top of the city, Luo Yangming anxiously searched for the whereabouts of Xie Erren among the piles of corpses and wounded, fearing that his judgment was wrong. Delayed in rescuing the elders. When I found the female wall, I realized that there was a man who was tied tightly and had a black cloth covering his head. It could be seen by the firelight that he was wearing a cadre uniform.
Luo Yangming's heart was beating wildly, and he quickly took a few steps to turn the man over, took off his hood, and saw that it was indeed Chief Xie. His eyes were closed tightly, and there was blood on his head. Feeling horrified, she quickly stretched out her hand to feel his breath.
His breathing was steady, and when he touched his neck again, there was still a pulse. Luo Yangming felt as if his whole body had been relieved, and he could no longer stand. He fell to his knees with a thud, and was so limp that he didn't even have the strength to raise his hands.
The sergeant guarding the gate also arrived. He was surprised when he saw this and asked, "What's going on?" He looked closely at the person Luo Yangming was holding on his lap and was shocked: "It's Chief Jie!"
Luo Yangming nodded slightly and whispered: "Don't make any noise and quickly find a stretcher. Send him back quietly."
"Yes, yes," the sergeant was sweating like rain, remembering that he had sternly refused just now and almost missed the important event! If the leader was captured by the Ming army or killed, wouldn't he become the culprit? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but stammered, "I, I'll go right away... Don't worry, I was the one who fooled you just now! You are really the number one contributor!"
Luo Yangming shook his head and said: "Don't take it to heart, go and do it quickly. The leader is also injured and has to be sent back for treatment. Don't make any noise about this matter."
"Yes, yes. I understand." The sergeant saluted and hurried to find a stretcher. I secretly cursed myself for being so stupid: It’s not worth letting such a huge achievement go in vain, but now I might still be responsible!
After a while, the stretcher came, and Luo Yangming asked two laborers to untie the ropes on Erren's body before lifting the stretcher back to the government office. He managed to stand up with the help of a laborer. At this time, Wen Tietou arrived panting, his body also stained with blood and his head covered with sweat.
"Master!" he said excitedly, "We caught the one who was in danger - was he rescued? I saw someone carrying the stretcher down."
"Rescued." Luo Yangming nodded, "It's safe and sound! You and your brothers have done a great job!"
"Finally, our ancestors have appeared!" Wen Tietou said, "I'm going to have a good fortune!"
Luo Yangming smiled slightly: "Gather all the brothers, and arrange for the dead and injured. Make a list for me first. Those who are alive must be rewarded based on their merits, and those who are dead must be compensated. They are all good brothers. , we can’t ask them to work hard without any end..."
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it right away!" Wen Tietou looked at his appearance and suddenly frowned, "Master, are you injured?"
"I'm fine, it's just that my body is very weak." Luo Yangming was eager to go back to the government office to discuss the aftermath with Zhao Toyota. "You can ask two brothers to carry me in a sedan or carry me on their backs and take me to the government office immediately." After that, He also warned, "Don't mention today's matter to anyone!"
"clear!"
Zhao Toyota was like an ant on a hot pot in the government office. He also heard the gunfire at Dayunmen. After hearing the gunshots, he immediately sent people to reinforce Dayunmen and at the same time inquire about the news.
Hearing that Luo Yangming had rescued the leader at the top of Dayunmen City and had sent him back, Zhao Toyota also sat down on the chair, trembling all over.
What a close call! Zhao Toyota thought that if it weren't for Luo Yangming, even his death apology would not be enough to quell the chaos in Wuzhou City this time...
At a critical moment, such old land is still useful...
At the moment, the most important thing is to bring the chief back to the government office, and at the same time try to block the news as much as possible - the Senate can't hide it, but this has nothing to do with him, anyway, the elders are taking care of it. The main thing is to block news about naturalized people and local indigenous people as much as possible to prevent the people's hearts from being shaken.
"Immediately carry Chief Xie quietly to the residence of the Third General Mansion!" He ordered his men, "Just say that Chief Xie was injured in the attack and needs to rest. Don't talk about anything else."
He thought of Sanhezui again and wondered what the situation was like there. He was about to send someone to inquire, but Qian Duo had already returned.
"The fire and gunfire over Sanhezui have gradually subsided - we have made contact with Sanhezui, and the enemy has retreated." Qian Duo took off his hat tiredly, "What a struggle this night! I just heard I went to the city to play drums, and some enemies infiltrated?"
"Something big happened in the city!" Zhao Toyota told what happened in a few words. Even a veteran officer like him turned pale and stayed for a long time before saying: "Oh my God! So that's it! We're missing These lead to big mistakes!”
"I really owe Luo Yangming this time!" Zhao Toyota said with a wry smile, "It seems that the leader's life should not be cut off."
"We are also lucky." Qian Duo said, "We really need to thank him."
While they were talking, Zhu Si also came, with a furious look on his face. As soon as he entered the room, he asked Xie Erren if he had the whereabouts. Hearing that he had been rescued, he let out a long breath and collapsed on the chair.
"This is a life-threatening situation," he murmured.
