Zhou Tie frowned, thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
At first, I didn't think carefully enough, and I even forgot about the frail scholar I am.
Indeed, if he were allowed to continue to rest, the people behind him might catch up, and this was not an option.
In two days, it is still very difficult to search for a person who wants to hide in the mountains and forests!
What's more, there are still large troops trying to attract the attention of the pursuers, so no one may be chasing him.
Zhou Tie hesitated and said: "Master, as you said, I will send ten more people to escort you away!"
"You go north! Our people will lead them south, using gunpowder to attract their attention on the way."
"That's not necessary!" Fang Zhengyi refused decisively.
Even with ten people escorting him, he was still a burden. If someone really caught up with him, he would also be a burden to his own people.
"Don't worry, King Wu will never dare to kill me. The worst result is that I will be captured... There is no difference between me running alone and running with ten people, and ten people are more conspicuous. You just need to lure him away. ”
"Stay through it for a day or two, and come back to me when they retreat. Don't worry, I'm not a weakling! There's no way I can survive even two days in the mountains! You look down on me too much!"
After saying that, Fang Zheng pulled out the short blunderbuss from his arms: "I still have a gun. It's no problem if I encounter wild animals and the like!"
"I'll leave one for you. I'll just take one. It's useless if the other party comes to me for more."
Seeing his resolute attitude, Zhou Tie sighed deeply: "Okay!"
"Bring a firework with you and remember to give us a signal the night after tomorrow. We can't go too far in the mountains and we should be able to see it. After sending the signal, hide it where you are until we get there. Try to find a shady place to hide on the way."
"Get some dry food for the master!"
As soon as Fang Zheng got the dry food and fireworks, he felt a lot more relaxed. He nodded and said, "Well, you go, I'll go too. Don't be reluctant to fight, it's important to save your life. Remember not to let them get the gunpowder."
"Also, where is north?"
Zhou Tie stretched out his hand and said solemnly: "Master, be careful! There are many dangers in the mountains... always have your gun handy."
"Stop talking nonsense! It's not like I haven't been in the mountains before. Let's go!"
Fang Zheng staggered away together, while Zhou Tie and others stayed where they were, watching Fang Zhengyi off.
Seeing the figure gradually disappearing, Zhao Lie said: "Brother Tie, you really can rest assured and let me go alone."
"In this case, it's dangerous for the master to follow us. He shouldn't have much problem if he stays in the mountains for two days."
"Now camp where you are! Get all the gunpowder ready. We'll fight them here first, and then lead them south."
"yes!"
........
coast,
King Wu stood silently in front of the broken ship.
The astonishing power of the flying thunder cannon still reappeared in my mind from time to time.
He had fantasized about the power of Infinite Merit to crack mountains and crack rocks, but when he actually faced this kind of murderous weapon, he realized how pale his imagination was.
King Wu clenched his fists, his eyes filled with unwillingness...
One day early! If only I had gone to sea one day earlier! You can successfully escape with Fang Zhengyi.
When he arrived overseas, he had no choice but to conquer the world with him.
With this magical weapon, small overseas countries are simply vulnerable!
One step missing... always one step missing... every time it's because of Fang Zhengyi!
Maybe I should have killed him earlier...
Chen Jian saw King Wu's expression getting increasingly ugly, stepped forward and whispered: "Your Majesty, when others come back, do you have to wait for us from the capital again?"
As soon as he said these words, King Wu turned around and looked at Chen Jian, his eyes full of bloodshot eyes: "Wait? Once Fang Zheng has such weapons, do you think those people can come back?"
"We have no time... If we cannot capture Fang Zhengyi within two days, we will go to sea immediately!"
"How many people died this time? How many people are left on the ship?"
"Your Majesty, a total of two hundred and thirty-seven people died... There were five hundred people left behind in the two ships."
King Wu closed his eyes and looked up to the sky and sighed: "Such power...I ordered people to burn this abandoned ship. It must be burned completely. There are still two ships left. We can't take away all the people. You go and deal with it." "
...
"Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!"
There were explosions in the mountains and forests.
The pursuers finally caught up with Zhou Tie and others, and the two sides had been in a stalemate for a short time.
More than a hundred Taoyuan people occupied the high ground in the south, holding explosive packets and throwing them downwards.
The enemy soldiers who came to pursue them were obviously of top quality.
In such a short period of time, my mind has gradually begun to adapt to the pressure caused by the explosion.
They also began to no longer fight in groups, but instead broke up into teams of one or two.
Although he was calmer than before, his eyes were inevitably filled with fear when he saw his unfortunate companions being blown away.
Explosive packets are consumed extremely quickly, and the frequency of throwing them is getting less and less.
The other side's sergeant obviously noticed this trend, raised his sword and roared: "They are almost out of thunder!! Brothers, come with me! Capture Fang Zheng alive and get a reward of 1,000 taels of silver! Kill the enemy and get a thousand taels of silver!"
The enemy soldiers hiding behind the big trees began to venture out boldly when they saw that the situation had improved.
Then start charging to higher places!
Zhou Tie had been alert to his surroundings. When he saw the number of enemy soldiers on the opposite side gradually increasing, he ordered: "Don't throw away any more explosive packets and prepare for hand-to-hand combat! Remember, don't be obsessed with fighting! Don't take the initiative to meet the enemy. Move south and retreat while fighting."
The enemy troops continued to move upward, and Zhou Tie's men and horses also began to slowly move to the south.
Looking at the approaching enemy, Zhou Tie actually smiled and said loudly: "Brothers, after practicing for so long, it's finally time to see the blood! Don't let anyone be timid! If you are timid, it will be an embarrassment to me. Face!"
Having played against each other before, I already know their confidence.
Although the level is good, it can't be compared with the soldiers he leads!
"Kill me...fuck!"
Leading troops to fight for the second time! Zhou Tie was excited and couldn't help but rush towards the approaching enemy.
However, it was a slope... He stepped on the gravel, staggered, and rushed into the other person's arms... The two began to roll down the slope...
Fortunately, his kung fu foundation was still there. While dodging the opponent's weapon, he stabbed the opponent's heart straight with the long knife.
Zhou Tie rolled not far before he stopped, quickly got up and started killing the surrounding enemies!
He swung his swords extremely fast, and he couldn't even get close!
When Zhao Lie saw this, he couldn't help but roared: "Kill!!"
"Kill! Kill!"
People on both sides were shouting, and for a while there were shouts of killing.
There was a person running towards Zhao Lie in front of him. Zhao Lie raised his sword high and jumped down from the height with all his strength!
The opponent raised his knife to block.
There was a sound of gold and iron clashing, and the opponent's long knife shattered... Zhao Lie held the big knife and slashed the opponent from the shoulder to the abdomen!
The enemy soldier slumped down half-stretched, his blood gushing wildly, and he still maintained a nervous look on his face.
The two people around him who were about to rush forward to kill him were stunned when they saw this brutal scene.
Zhao Lie was also stunned! He didn't expect that this knife could cut so hard, and that the opponent's knife was so brittle and not very strong!
This is much easier than killing a pig...
However, he didn't have much time to hesitate. Someone was bullying him next to him, so he quickly drew his knife to fight against the enemy.
The other Taoyuan people also slashed with their swords. When the opponent blocked it, most of their swords broke into pieces!
The troops on King Wu's side were horrified, and their morale dropped again and again. Fortunately, there were a large number of people, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the brothers around them stepping forward one after another!
Zhou Tie's morale was greatly boosted for a while! There were actually more than a hundred people fighting against thousands of people!
At the same time, he faintly began to chase the opponent!
But at this time, the opponent's follow-up manpower has begun to gather more and more!
Seeing that everyone was already killing bloody people, Zhou Tie's eyes were red with bloodshed, Zhou Tie roared angrily: "Don't be obsessed with fighting!! Don't be obsessed with fighting!! Escape quickly!!"
"Everyone should fucking retreat!!"
However, everyone was already full of blood and very few people could listen to what they said. Most of them still came forward with knives in hand and actively pursued him.
The enemy soldiers were running and blocking each other, and they began to curse in their hearts... They told me not to fight! Why are you still cutting it? !
"Don't be obsessed with fighting!!" An enemy soldier who couldn't stand it cried out in a cry. The next second he was stabbed deeply in the chest and fell to the ground dead.
Zhou Tie was so angry that he rushed from left to right and started shouting: "Retreat quickly!! Retreat quickly!! Mr. Fang is exhausted!"
After that, he took out the blunderbuss given by Fang Zhengyi and fired two shots at the enemy soldiers!
Hearing Zhou Tie's call to Fang Zhengyi and the sound of gunshots, many people reacted and began to retreat quickly and orderly to the south.
When the enemy soldiers saw that the other party had withdrawn, they felt relieved in their hearts.
"Fang Zhengyi is still inside! Chase him quickly!!" Someone suddenly shouted loudly.
The enemy army heard the news and started a new wave of pursuit...
........
late at night.
Zhou Tie stared straight at the bonfire.
Zhao Lie was reporting on the battle situation: "No one was killed, thirty-six people were slightly injured, and there are still explosive packs left... The landmines have been laid out in places that must be passed."
"Well, I think we don't have to wait until two days later. The pursuers should retreat tomorrow."
"Why?" Zhao Lie asked
"I discovered during the day that those people were in a hurry and didn't bring any dry food with them. The physical exertion in the mountains was too great for them. They couldn't bear it. At most, they would start to withdraw before sunset tomorrow."
"Brother Tie is awesome, you can see it all!"
Zhou Tie raised his eyes and glanced at Zhao Lie, and shook his head in disappointment: "You guys let me down so much. If it weren't for being too obsessed with fighting, there wouldn't be so many people injured."
"But... the other party doesn't seem to be very powerful. Brother Tie, I killed six of them today!" Zhao Lie's eyes were slightly excited, as if he wasn't quite happy yet.
"You just took advantage of the weapons. They used Yanling knives with a long and slender blade. The broadsword you used was broad and heavy, so the opponent couldn't block it. Plus, you are strong, so there is nothing to be proud of. What's wrong with being strong? ?You just ate more meat than others."
"You are not a good soldier if you have good physical fitness but cannot enforce orders and prohibitions! You should stay away from Zhang Biao in the future. These are all bad habits you learned from him!"
"Yeah...but you're not scared, you're like me, you're doing well!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie picked up the knife and looked at it.
"Brother Tie... Why do they use thin knives like this when they are regular troops instead of our kind of knives? Big knives are obviously better."
Zhou Tie took the big sword from him, held it in a hand, and handed it back after not feeling comfortable with it.
He is good at using sharp knives, but he is still not used to using this kind of knife.
"This kind of sword does not exist in the outside world. It is only found in Taoyuan County. It is a sword made under the supervision of the master himself, and it is called the Anti-Japanese Broadsword. It is made of the finest stainless steel. The ordinary Yanling sword cannot be equipped with this kind of material. You can't afford it, and the sword is heavy and easy to fatigue when used. No ordinary soldier has the physical strength like you."
Zhao Lie couldn't help but wipe the blade when he heard this. He didn't expect it to be such a treasure. Everyone in the team thought it was an ordinary weapon.
"Brother Tie, what if we can't see the signal if I go too far?"
"I can't walk very far with my physical strength. Don't worry."
"By the way, the master has left with the fireworks. Did you bring Huo'er with you?"
"Why?"
