Just at this time, a fast horse drove up the official road.
As soon as Chen Kan saw the knight's face clearly, the knight came straight to Chen Kan.
"Master Marquis, Your Highness the Princess is fine."
The knight started shouting from a distance.
When Chen Kan heard this, his eyes became sore and tears almost burst out of his eyes.
Fortunately, the sky is full of blessings from gods and Buddhas.
Chen Kan took a long breath after thanking the gods from both East and West.
"Brothers, follow me."
The moment he heard the knight report that the cute girl with big eyes was okay, Chen Kan knew that he had guessed correctly. The other party was here for the new firearms and him.
The cute girl with big eyes was the bait that the man used to lure him into taking the bait.
After such a big thing happened, I would never let Zhu Yuelan stay in Wuming Valley without any worries.
And that person was sure that he would personally pick up the cute girl with big eyes.
In this way, his last condition for ambushing him was fulfilled.
However, if the other party wanted to catch a big fish like him, didn't he think of biting off the hook directly?
Or is it that the other party has absolute confidence in his own methods?
No matter what the situation was, Chen Kan planned to visit this dragon's pond and tiger's den himself.
Chen Kan bet that his life would be harder than the other party imagined.
"Drive~"
The official road in July was filled with dust.
The more than one hundred people following Chen Kan now are all the elites that Chen Kan brought to Yunnan and brought back to the capital.
Together with Chen Kan, they experienced the interception and killing by the White Lotus Sect, and also experienced a high-intensity march covering hundreds of miles in three days.
Not only are they powerful in battle, they are also loyal to Chen Kan.
Even if Chen Kan wanted to take them to die, they would not look back.
After galloping for half an hour, a small lake suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes.
The water network in the south of the Yangtze River is densely covered with reeds and grass everywhere.
The reed swamp in front of us is a geomantic treasure land where murderers and corpses are hidden.
A gust of autumn wind came, and there was an inexplicable chill in the air.
Chen Kan reined in his horse. The horse stood upright in a humane manner and snorted in mid-air.
It seemed that it also had a premonition and was feeling extremely excited about the upcoming fight.
The knight behind him stopped steadily, and there was no chaos in the formation.
Chen Kan showed a trace of relief on his face, he knew that his cavalry had been developed.
With just over a hundred people, he can raise a cavalry force of tens of thousands at any time in the future.
"Those who hide their heads and show their tails, come out quickly and die."
Fang Xu stood upright with a bloodthirsty smile on his face.
Fang Xu is a man with great military talent, which Chen Kan already knew when he was at Longshou Pass.
And now that he has gone out to call for formation, it means that he has also discovered something wrong in this reed swamp.
quiet!
The air was suffocatingly quiet.
The cicadas and frogs that should have been heard during this season have all disappeared.
On the entire official road, the only sounds left were the breathing of people and the snoring of horses.
The sky suddenly darkened.
A bolt of lightning connected the sky and the earth, and the thunder that followed drowned out all the sounds on the earth.
After the thunder, a few raindrops fell on the tip of Chen Kan's nose.
It also made a green reed swamp rustle.
The heavy rain came quickly, like a killer standing in the reeds, suddenly covering Chen Kan's eyes.
"kill!"
The rain was pouring down, and the sound of crashing drowned out all the sounds that should have been heard.
Even the killing cry from the assassin who rushed towards Chen Kan became insignificant.
The heavy rain soaked Chen Kan's clothes.
There was a sharp pain behind him.
Chen Kan knew without thinking that the wound on his back must have opened again after being soaked by the rain.
The pain made Chen Kan's face look ferocious.
That's him laughing.
No one knows why he can still laugh at this time.
Except Chen Kan himself.
Chen Kan was smiling. He had made the right bet. His fate was indeed very tough.
These men did not carry bows and arrows.
But Chen Kan felt relieved after thinking about it for a moment.
Bows and crossbows were military supplies in the Ming Dynasty. Those who hid the crossbows privately among the people were confiscated and moved three thousand miles away.
They were able to get swords because the Ming Dynasty did not have strict control over civilian iron tools.
As long as the opponent has no bows and arrows, Chen Kan's cavalry will be invincible against a mass of scattered killers.
"kill!"
Zhang San and Fang Xu were the two guardians beside Chen Kan. Fang Xu was responsible for training soldiers and killing people, while Zhang San was responsible for running errands. The two had a clear division of labor and each performed their own duties.
The neat sound of horse hooves trampling on the rainwater caused a noise far greater than the thunder in the sky.
The cavalry of more than a hundred people was shouted out by Fang Xu, giving them the momentum of thousands of troops.
There is no temptation, no nonsense, as soon as the fight begins, it is a killing move that hits the vital point with a knife.
People kept falling from their horses, and assassins kept falling in a pool of blood.
The heavy rain carried away the blood and flowed into the lake along the gaps between the reeds, causing the fish in the lake to jump out of the water en masse.
"Bata~"
No one knows what the sound is. It may be the sound of a corpse falling to the ground, or the sound of raindrops hitting the water, or the sound of fish jumping out of the water and falling into the lake.
Chen Kan did not initiate a charge, he just silently held the cloth strip tightly in the palm of his hand.
In the misty rain curtain, except for the sound of horse hooves and the razor-sharp sound of long knives cutting through the skin, almost no other sounds could be heard.
No more wailing, no more screams.
The picture in front of him seemed to be just an insignificant landscape and ink painting to Chen Kan.
There's just a little more color in it.
Chen Kan took out the piece of bamboo he received from the old imperial doctor from his waist and put it into his mouth. Chen Kan drove the horse without saying a word.
The horse sensed its master's mood and instantly stood upright, uttering Herod's mournful cry.
Chen Kan's Xiuchundao was held across his waist. With the impact of his horse, he could silently harvest several lives with one charge.
The method of cavalry fighting was taught to Chen Kan by Shi Wen when Chen Kan first came to Jinyi Guard.
He originally thought that he would never have the opportunity to see the battlefield in person, but he never thought that after learning the fighting methods of cavalry, he would start using them to harvest the lives of his compatriots before the first battle with the Tatars.
Unknowingly, Chen Kan, escorted by several personal guards, had penetrated the enemy's formation.
"Master Marquis, there are too many of them. If my subordinates stop them, please run away quickly."
The captain who advised Chen Kan to flee was named Wang Xiaoer. Chen Kan recognized him. Not only did he recognize him, but he also knew that his family lived in Qiguai Hutong, Jiangning County. He also had an old woman, a three-year-old daughter, and a virtuous child at home. Aunt-in-law.
In fact, Chen Kan could call all the names present and could clearly remember the place of residence of each of them.
The purpose is to send their ashes back home in the future.
"Master Marquis, please leave quickly. As long as you are alive, you can avenge your brothers in the future!"
Seeing the anxious expression on Wang Xiaoer's face, Chen Kan grinned, turned his horse's head and charged into the enemy formation again.
"I'm just a copper pea that won't make a sound if it's not steamed or boiled."
"It's not that easy to kill me!"
Chen Kan's life has always been tough, as evidenced by the failure to take him away in the Lan Yu case and the Fu Youde case. Even if that Chen Kan died unexpectedly due to the Fang Xiaoru case, there was another Chen Kan who came to take over his body.
"kill!"
Chen Kan spat out the bamboo pieces in his mouth because he found that holding bamboo pieces in his mouth always made him feel uncomfortable.
The number of cavalry was getting smaller and smaller.
Chen Kan also suffered more and more injuries.
Now Chen Kan finally realized that something was wrong with his physical condition. He obviously lost so much blood and was poisoned when he was on the edge of the Qinhuai River, but now not only did he not feel weak at all, but he became more and more courageous as he fought.
Where does such a thin body get so much strength?
Not even the pain seemed to make him feel miserable or desperate.
Seeing Chen Kan's bravery, the officers and men under his command were instantly inspired, and they rushed towards the assassins who emerged from the reeds one by one without fear of death.
Chen Kan chopped down an assassin with one blow, and saw that Wang Xiaoer, who had just advised him to escape quickly, was surrounded.
Once the cavalry is unable to charge, it means death is not far away.
Chen Kan saw with his own eyes that Wang Xiaoer's legs were cut off by several assassins, and he fell heavily to the ground.
But not only was there no trace of pain on his face, but instead he showed a maniacal laugh, because with one enemy against many, he not only killed two of them, but also caused the other two to lose their arms.
He saw Chen Kan's gaze, spat out a mouthful of blood, and moved his lips slightly, as if to say: "Master Marquis, leave quickly."
Then he turned around and bit an assassin on the leg.
The assassin was furious, raised his foot and kicked Wang Xiaoer on the head. Wang Xiaoer instantly bled from his orifices and lost consciousness.
The assassin didn't seem to be relieved yet, so he stepped down hard again.
Wang Xiaoer's head burst open like a watermelon, and brains mixed with plasma sprayed everywhere.
Chen Kan had no time to be sentimental, because there were too many such situations.
Fang Xu rode his horse and rushed to Chen Kan's side: "Master Hou, there are too many assassins. There are only a thousand or two thousand of these idiots. My subordinates will protect you and fight your way out."
Chen Kan watched all directions and stabbed an assassin in the eye with a knife. After causing a burst of screams, he looked at Fang Xu and said, "Keep on holding on, reinforcements are coming."
As if to confirm Chen Kan's words, a bolt of lightning fell in the dim rain curtain, and it was immediately clear that a cavalry was charging towards Chen Kan in the prison.
At the same time, on the other side of the official road, there was also a cavalry team driving their horses until they were foaming at the mouth.
"Hahahahaha..."
Chen Kan suddenly laughed maniacally.
Reinforcements have arrived.
And there are two supporting armies.
None of these assassins can escape!
The lightning illuminated not only Chen Kan's sight, but also the assassin.
After seeing a group of cavalry coming from both sides of the official road, many assassins turned pale in an instant.
Why?
Why did his reinforcements come so quickly?
