In the critical moment of life and death, my brothers have arrived!
Several familiar faces appeared in front of Fang Zhengyi. Zhou Tie pulled Fang Zhengyi onto the horse and started running back with everyone.
At this time, the people in the boat had also noticed something was wrong, and many people ran out of the boat!
Chasing troops began to appear behind Fang Zheng and others. Halfway through, Zhou Tie shouted loudly: "Fire the guns! Fire the guns!!"
In the woods, the second round of shelling was launched brazenly!
"Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!"
The already dilapidated ship once again experienced violent bombardment!
The scene was very tragic.
The people inside the ship were not stupid and evacuated to the other side of the ship early without causing too many casualties.
However, this round of shelling was not without success.
The pursuers were severely shocked! Stopped the pursuit.
Everyone opened their mouths and looked behind them in horror.
Then he looked towards the woods with fear on his face, and many people even began to retreat faintly.
Fang Zheng and others took this opportunity to retreat safely into the woods and successfully rejoined the large army.
Seeing that no one was pursuing him, Zhou Tieyue dismounted and picked up a telescope to observe the situation.
When the others saw Fang Zhengyi's face covered in blood, they gathered around him and began to inquire about his welfare.
Zhao Lie asked with concern: "Master, are you okay? Did King Wu do anything to you?"
"Yes, sir, how could you be kidnapped? We have always kidnapped others. When have we ever suffered such a disadvantage?"
"Master, I brought the gun to you. You take it first."
The blood on his face covered Fang Zhengyi's red face.
It's really fucking embarrassing. As a gang leader, I really shouldn't have made such a stupid mistake!
How should I convince the public in the future?
Fang Zheng dismissed the crowd and laughed: "Don't worry, I'm fine! The King of Wu treated me as a guest and insisted on marrying his daughter to me and making me his son-in-law! Haha!"
In the woods, a group of people looked at each other with mysterious expressions, wandering back and forth between Zhou Tie and Fang Zhengyi.
Zhou Tie hurriedly shouted: "Master! Stop talking!"
"I found a man in red robe. Can you see if he is the King of Wu?"
ah? Brother Tie has never even met King Wu!
A group of people behind me started whispering...
As soon as Fang Zheng took the telescope and looked towards the ship, he saw that King Wu had left the ship and stepped off the bridge surrounded by many guards.
"Yes! He is King Wu."
"Hit him again! Kill him and leave us leaderless. Let's retreat." Zhou Tie said bitterly.
When the people around him were about to make a move, Fang Zheng stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't show off your bravery. Only his life is valuable. Leave him a dog's life."
"Let our people pack up their things. All things related to gunpowder must be packed away and retreat immediately!"
Everyone began to pack their equipment.
King Wu's people in the distance still didn't dare to step forward, and the devastating blow from the flying thunder cannon still shocked them.
King Wu hid in a safe corner, with greed and fear in his eyes. He glanced at the broken ship and shouted to his soldiers: "Everyone set out immediately! Block the official road all the way, detour and outflank the rest. The people dispersed into the woods to pursue him! Anyone who captures Fang Zheng alive will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver! If he kills one, he will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!!"
"You don't have to be afraid! They are in the woods, and the weapons can't be used at all!"
"I'll give you two days at most. Regardless of success or failure, return here immediately!"
There must be a brave man under the heavy reward!
What's more, these people were originally desperate "outlaws" who were loyal to King Wu.
After the order was issued, the large troops began to disperse without hesitation and moved forward in three groups.
Zhou Tie was still observing the situation here. When he saw a large number of enemy troops, he immediately said in a hurry: "Pack up and set off immediately! The troops on the opposite side should be divided up to outflank us. The official road should be closed, let's go into the mountain!"
Looking at the rolling hills not far away, Fang Zhengyi asked, "Isn't it okay to take a small road?"
"No! We are not familiar with the environment here at all. There are many more people on the opposite side than us. Only by entering the mountains can we have a chance to get rid of them. Once we enter the mountains, we have to abandon our horses. Although the opponents are well-trained, they are in the mountains. Our advantage must be even greater!”
"The people on the other side are scattered and gunpowder won't have much effect. Go into the mountains and fight guerrillas with them!"
Fang Zheng nodded: "Okay! You can arrange everything!"
After a while, more than a hundred people were ready to go and began to run away in the distance...
After half an hour of desperate running, Fang Zheng and others had already entered the mountain on horseback.
The team was divided into two teams, with the large force headed by Fang Zhengyi at the front, and a team of 20 people headed by Bai Rui pressing behind to explore the enemy's situation.
The two teams sent messages through bird whistles.
As the mountain road became increasingly difficult to walk, Zhou Tie raised his hand to signal behind him to stop and shouted: "Brothers, dismount and walk!"
Fang Zheng jumped off the horse and looked behind him: "Can't the horse leave?"
"We can walk...but it's not necessary. We walk up the mountain. The steeper the terrain, the better it is for us. Those horses are already a burden."
Zhou Tie closed his eyes and listened carefully to the chirping of birds in the distance. He frowned and said, "The other party is following closely. There are still a lot of people. We have to hurry up."
Fang Zhengyi nodded silently. Some matters were better left to professionals.
Although Zhou Tie has only lost battles, he has received professional training after all. There is also a written test for the martial arts champion exam!
Talking on paper is better than never talking at all!
Walking on mountain roads is nothing to these elite special forces soldiers in Taoyuan County, even if they are carrying heavy loads.
No one had any objections and all jumped off their horses and started walking.
An hour passed, during which bird whistles continued, and several explosions were heard in the distance.
Judging from the situation, Bai Rui and others were driven up and were using gunpowder to repel the enemy.
Fortunately, I reported the news later and was not caught up, so everything went well.
But the unexpected happened eventually...
Fang Zheng was tired and sweating profusely, leaning against the stone with a pale face.
A group of people around him were waiting for him silently.
Zhou Tie said anxiously: "Master, have you rested? I've rested three times and the pursuers haven't withdrawn yet."
"No... no, no! I've decided it's no longer possible! Leave me alone and run away on your own!" Fang Zheng waved his hands repeatedly and swallowed.
Staring at the ground, I felt waves of dizziness.
Oh shit! In the past two years, I have been pampered and neglected exercise, and my body has seriously deteriorated!
Although he is still much better than the scumbag in a modern office building, two hours of non-stop walking on the mountain road has almost killed him!
I didn’t expect that the chain would fall off at this juncture!
A group of people were eagerly waiting for him at the critical moment of life and death. Even Fang Zheng, a group of people with a thick skin, couldn't handle it.
At this moment, Bai Rui's team caught up and urged: "Why are you still here! I have used up the explosive packs, and the other side is speeding up the pursuit. It won't be long before they catch up!"
"I'll carry you!" Zhou Tie came up and was about to carry Fang Zhengyi, but he pushed him away.
"I'll find a place to hide myself. You guys are still carrying equipment. If you carry me on your back, your speed will be slowed down. You run first..."
Looking at the dead branches and leaves on the ground, Fang Zhengyi already had the idea of disposing of them.
I always take the lead when something happens, but today I have become a drag. If I continue to follow the large army, I am afraid it will increase the risk factor for my brothers. I can’t delay any longer. I will bury myself in the leaves when they leave. Lying down...
"King Wu should be afraid that our people will run back and call for reinforcements. He is very cautious. I dare say they will only chase for a day or two at most! As long as you survive two days, they will probably withdraw... I will follow you It’s just a drag, don’t worry about me.”
