Chu He took Mrs. Xiu and caught up with the horse team moving forward, the whole horse village, the number of people is really a lot, there are thousands of people, old and young, these people are Mrs. Xiu's dealers, and some of them are domestic slaves, the kind that signed the deed of sale.

Basically, wherever Mrs. Xiu goes, these people will go, not to mention that Handan is about to be destroyed, these people can leave the dangerous place, and no one will object, so although the homeland is difficult to leave, if you can live, there will be new hope.

Chu He's identity was confirmed under the announcement of Mrs. Xiu, from this moment on, everyone in Mazhuang will take Chu He as the core, and all affairs will be decided by Chu He, from a widow to a woman, Mrs. Xiu seems to concentrate on being a wife and learning to serve her husband, which is what a woman should do.

"Report -----" A long roar came from afar, and a cavalry outpost galloped wildly, flew off his horse, bowed down and reported for duty: "Childe, thirty miles ahead, the way is blocked, there are thousands of soldiers blocking the way, among which there is the whereabouts of the He family, Leader Zhao asked his subordinates to return, how to act?"

Mrs. Xiu had already walked over and said, "Husband, there is a high mountain checkpoint ahead, which belongs to the last pass in the south of Zhao Kingdom, and it is estimated that the He family has already received the news and wants to intercept us." ”

Chu He thought about the modern terrain in his mind and sought another route, because Chu He knew that for the ancient people, such a level was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and if they really wanted to stop them, it would be impossible for them to break through the high mountain pass with them, old and weak women and children.

Since Mrs. Xiu was promised to take everyone away and move forward to Jiangdong, then Chu He must of course go all out.

"Ma'am, is there any other way to go?"

Mrs. Xiu nodded and said, "Yes, but it is very dangerous, if the high mountain pass is not passable, we can only take the waterway, but this waterway has not been developed, the water is turbulent, I am afraid it is very difficult." ”

Chu He nodded and said: "The road ahead is impassable, and we can't bear the consequences of forcible breaking, so we can only take the waterway, although it is dangerous, there is still hope, madam, is there a boat in the nearest place here?"

Mrs. Xiu deserved to be a businessman, and immediately said: "Twenty miles southwest of the world, there is a port of rest, where there are ships we need, but in such a war-torn period, whether we can find ships depends on luck." ”

Chu He didn't think much about it, at this time, hesitation is a big taboo, no matter whether he can find a boat or not, he can't afford it.

Overnight, fortunately, the convoy of horses is enough, and it is not like the last time there was food, in the middle of the night, it has arrived at the place of rest, it is dark here, and the five fingers can not be seen, which is very disappointing.

"Zhao Hu. ”

"The subordinates are here. ”

"Light the torches, scatter to find the boats, report the situation immediately, and the rest of the people, rest on the spot, eat some dry food to replenish their strength, this place is too close to the high mountain pass, and they can't stay for a long time. ”

"Yes. ”

After Zhao Hu left, Chu He sat here to rest, waiting to disappear, Mrs. Xiu sat in the carriage, feeling the darkness around her, she was a little scared in her heart, she got off the carriage and came to Chu He's side, it seemed that only in this way could she relax and calm her restless heart.

Chu He turned around, gave a comforting smile, and said, "Madame, don't worry. There is a husband, and no one in the world can hurt you. ”

Mrs. Xiu's heart warmed, her face under the veil showed a little happiness, her eyes were confused, she breathed lightly, and nodded in response: "Qingxiu knows, but the husband himself is more careful, and these people in the Ma family are all maintained by the husband." ”

"Childe, drink some water!" Tian'er had already handed over the kettle, and Chu He took it and poured it hard.

Just back, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and a guard rushed over, and said loudly with an eager face: "Childe, there is a bright light flashing ahead, it seems that there are Qin soldiers stationed, they have gathered all the ships together, strengthened the vigilance, and the leader of Zhao has gone to reconnoitre, let his subordinates come down to report." ”

Chu He handed the kettle to Mrs. Xiu and said, "Madame is resting here, and my husband will go to check it out, no matter what, I must seize the boat, find a way out, and take all your people out of danger." ”

"Be careful, husband. ”

Chu He waved his hand and said, "The first team guards protect Mrs., and the second team guards come with me." ”

This is Chu He's temporary reorganization of the team, but the time is limited, and there is no way to train them, if there is enough time, Chu He believes that these people can be trained by him and become soldiers in a hundred battles.

It's a pity that Chu He doesn't have much time on his own.

The appearance of the Qin army here, in fact, is not surprising, with the Yangjiang River as the boundary, to the north through the territory of Zhao State, to the south is to enter Korea, although there is only a small port here, but it is developed in all directions.

The Qin army attacked Handan, also worried that the Zhao royal family would escape from here.

Chu He believed that once Handan City was broken, more Qin troops would appear here.

Now in the Handan War, the Qin brigade is there, so there is only one team here, which has collected all the merchant ships, waiting for orders, although the Qin army appeared, but to be honest, these ships were just assembled and not burned, but fortunately, otherwise even if Chu He has the ability, there is no way to take away so many people in Mazhuang.

In the forest, Chu River and Zhao Hu converged.

"How's it going?"

Zhao Hu reported in a low voice: "The villain has personally investigated just now, there is a camp here, there are five hundred elite garrisons of the Qin State in the camp, and on the riverbank, there are many merchant and passenger ships, all connected by ropes, I wait for so many people to want to pass, as long as they kill the Qin army." ”

Chu He raised his head and looked at the lights in the distance, in the quiet night, he was dyed a little heavy, or soon, he was about to bleed into a river, but Chu He knew that when he took a step, there was no way back.

"The two of you go to report to Madame, and the people who answer Mazhuang are transferred here, since there is no way to retreat, then you can only fight a bloody way, Zhao Hu, prepare to act, tell all the guards, come here, we have no way to retreat, only by moving forward bravely, can we live." ”

Zhao Hu's cold face sank slightly, and he replied lightly: "Uncle, don't worry, we are all the guards of Mazhuang, and we should use our lives for our wife." ”

Chu He patted Zhao Hu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, and I will be with you, only five hundred Qin guards can't stop the gun in my hand, I am the vanguard, you will charge with me and will not retreat until death." ”

Zhao Hu's fighting spirit rose, and immediately passed the order down, Chu He divided the Mazhuang guards into two teams, each team of two hundred and eighty people, compared to the five hundred Qin elites, the strength is two to one, the most important thing, the other party is a veteran of the battlefield, a single soldier force, will definitely crush these guards into slag, but this battle, have to fight.

There is a high mountain pass in front of it, and the waterway is garrisoned by the Qin State, unless everyone retreats to the territory of the Zhao State, otherwise one of the two roads must be chosen.

Compared with the dangerous terrain of Gaoshan Pass, it is much easier to deal with five hundred Qin soldiers, especially a sneak attack at night, which is twice the result with half the effort, Chu He believes that as long as he musters up morale, this battle will not be lost.

The rabbit will bite when he is in a hurry, not to mention these hot-blooded men, who are forced to have no way out, and all this is because of the Qin State, now facing the Qin soldiers, can they not be murderous?

Chu He lurked forward and killed two secret sentinels in a row, and Zhao Hu followed with the guards, carefully not alarming anyone.

Suddenly, Chu He's arms were propped up on the ground, his body was like a swallow, swept up, and disappeared in the dark, and not long after, the two guards on duty on the high-rise building fell softly, and were covered by Chu He, and lost their vitality.

Two torches were lit, and the Qin soldiers' camp house immediately ignited a raging fire, Chu He stood up and shouted loudly: "Kill, kill!"

At this time, the Qin soldiers were already alarmed, in the camp, the figures were scurrying, and at one of the doors, a military armor general appeared, he saw the chaos, pulled out his sharp blade, and shouted loudly: "Formation, formation-----"

Where would Chu He give the other party such an opportunity, once they formed a battle formation, with such strength as their side, they would not be able to cope with it at all, so their bodies leaped three meters and killed this general.

"General be careful!" The guards beside the general were already in front of him, the sword in his hand was swung towards the Chu River, Chu He did not dare to bear it, his hand moved, the light saber was in his hand, and he waved a sword, and the weapons of the three guards were cut into two, and when the general saw this, an incomparable battle intent surged, and the person had already roared violently and rushed towards the Chu River.

Knowing the danger, as a soldier, he still sticks to his mission.

Such a person is a real soldier.

Chu He had some admiration in his heart, Qin State was able to dominate the world, and it was precisely because of these millions of soldiers that their existence was the foundation of Qin State's invincibility and invincibility.

It's a pity that at this moment, Chu He couldn't show mercy to his subordinates, and the lightsaber in his hand fell in the air and slashed at this general.

The light flashed, and the general was completely silent, only a "squeak" sound came out of his throat, and the next moment, his body trembled and fell.

"The general is dead, the general is dead, retreat. ”

Without the command of this general, the five hundred elites were also in chaos, and they couldn't afford to form a battle formation at all, and Chu He was like a tiger entering the flock, setting off an iron-blooded killing, although he had no grudge against the Qin State, but for the sake of Mrs. Xiu, for his own commitment, he had to do so.

Five hundred Qin soldiers, more than half of them were killed, and the rest of the people fled in all directions, in this night, sneaking into the dense forest, Chu He did not let people chase and kill, because these routed forces were not even weaker than his strength at the moment, but they were just missing a leader, if they turned around, it would be dangerous.

Chu He asked Zhao Hu to prepare the boat, and he led people to greet Mrs. Xiu.

Mrs. Xiu led her clansmen, guided by several family guards, walked very slowly, and met the Chu River halfway.

"Husband, are you okay!" Mrs. Xiu under the veil, with a worried face, saw Chu He and cried out in a hurry.

Listening to the guard who led the way, Chu He was going to attack the camp of the Qin army, such a dangerous thing made Mrs. Xiu anxious, although she repeatedly accelerated, but in this darkness, she couldn't get up quickly.

Chu He stretched out his hand, let Mrs. Xiu take his hand, and said: "Madame, don't worry, it's okay for your husband, the Qin soldiers have been killed, we have to rush to the riverbank as soon as possible, and prepare to board the boat and sail away, tonight is going to be hard for everyone." ”

The procession of thousands of men marched one after another towards the river, until it was dark, and they all arrived.

Zhao Hu stayed awake all night, his eyes were red and swollen, and he reported to Chu He.

"Uncle, there are always eighty-six ships, of which there are three warships, the goods have already been shipped, and the warhorses can only carry half of them. ”

Chu He said: "It's okay, order everyone to board the boat and prepare to set off, have the guards on guard around been summoned?"

Zhao Hu said: "Everyone is gathered and waiting for Mrs. to board the ship." ”

Chu He knew that this was the status of this era, Mrs. Xiu did not board the boat, and none of these clansmen dared to take the lead in running to the boat, looking at the tired and sleeping Mrs. Xiu, Chu He, stopped her waist and hugged her, followed by Tian'er and Shui'er, and went towards the boat.

Those Qin soldiers who fled will soon attract a large army, and the interceptors of Gao Shanka will also find that their itinerary has changed, and if they don't leave, I am afraid that greater danger will come.

Chu He took Mrs. Xiu on the boat, Steward Liu, and Zhao Hu immediately ordered the clansmen to get on the boat, and in the distance, there was a vibrating sound of horses' hooves, and the breath of Xiao Killing surged, and everyone moved faster, because the Qin army team had already rushed towards the riverside.
