Chapter 296: The One Who Came to Ask for His Life
The number of people in black is only seven or eight hundred, but the sense of oppression is no less than that of more than 10,000 iron horsemen who have been crisscrossing the field for many years.
Although Gu Ge Lao and Doudou were not to the point of panic, after all, the ancestors and grandsons were people who had never been on the battlefield, and they were both forced to breathe a little by this thick murderous aura.
Emperor Yongtai has been the emperor for several years and has spent a lot of time in the land of swords and soldiers in Suzhou, and there is no panic in his demeanor, and he only looks at the hundreds of people in black with cold eyes.
Although the dark guards were inferior to each other in numbers, everyone's eyes were as firm as a rock, and they were obviously ready to fight.
Emperor Yongtai glanced at Doudou's little hands that were tightly gripping the reins, and said, "Yuan'er thinks these people are here to arrest people or ask for their lives?"
Just kidding again! Doudou is really convinced.
However, she knew that His Majesty the Emperor probably saw that she was too nervous, so she asked so.
Apparently these words were very effective in relaxing her tense nerves, and her little hand gradually loosened the reins.
Doudou curled his lips and said, "Uncle Emperor can know just by looking at what these black-clothed people will do next." ”
If the people in black do it without saying a word, it must be asking for their lives.
If the leader of the other party is still willing to show up and negotiate conditions, it is to arrest someone.
His Majesty the Emperor doesn't look like the kind of person who is willing to bow his head, and it is useless to arrest him.
And in the current situation, it is a trouble to keep him, but it will be a hundred to kill him, and the father and son of the Mu family will not make such a big detour.
Emperor Yongtai's opinion is the same as her, and now the government and the opposition know that he, the emperor, has fainted, and it is only natural that he will die.
Dying in Yunni Villa is death, and dying here is also death, at that time, as long as the Mu family supports one of his sons to be the emperor, it won't be long before he, the former emperor who has died, will be forgotten.
Sure enough, before they could finish their words, the people in black had quickly surrounded them.
The Dark Guard who had previously pretended to be Emperor Yongtai was the captain of the Royal Dark Guard Battalion Eagles, Dark Eagle, and his position was comparable to that of Dark Tiger, but his martial arts were superior.
This time, Emperor Yongtai went out of the palace to escape the summer, and the safety was mainly the responsibility of the Eagle Team, so the Dark Eagle was the leader of these secret guards.
With a wave of his hand, the guards greeted him in an orderly manner, and soon fought with the men in black.
He and another very capable looking secret guard stood guard by Emperor Yongtai's carriage in case of an emergency.
This fight once again subverted Doudou's impression of killing.
The two groups of people often train together on weekdays, and the cooperation between offense and defense is very tacit.
The black-clothed people are better than the large number of people, and the secret guards are superior in martial arts, and it is difficult to decide the winner for a while.
Emperor Yongtai saw that the nine secret guards beside Doudou were all guarding her side with swords in hand, and he had no intention of participating in the battle at all, so he smiled and said, "This is the eighteen secret guards that the first emperor rewarded Che'er?"
Doudou couldn't hear the ridicule in his words, pursed his lips and said: "Originally, it was indeed eighteen, but Yuwen Siqing blocked the way before, and nine of them went to solve the trouble, so only these remained." ”
Emperor Yongtai said: "They are very loyal, and no one dares to act privately without your orders." ”
Doudou said: "Uncle Emperor, they seem to be protecting me, but in fact, they are also protecting you, not afraid of 10,000, just in case ......"
I don't know which passing fairy she has been targeting recently, but before she finished speaking, she heard a sudden sound of rustling from several big trees on both sides of the official road.
Several people looked up at the same time, only to see a large group of black-clothed people appear behind the lush branches and leaves of those big trees.
The group of black-clothed men, like the previous ones, flew down from the tree like birds of prey without saying a word, and rushed straight to the emperor in the carriage.
The nine secret guards such as Storm seemed to be waiting for this moment, and they flew up from their horses together, fighting with the men in black who were several times their size.
Emperor Yongtai didn't dare to joke this time, it seems that the Mu family's father and son are very well prepared for this ambush, since there is another man in black after the man in black, who knows what will happen later?
He looked back and forth, and there were really not many people around him who could use it.
There were two top masters in front of and behind the carriage, including Dark Eagle, and outside the carriage were Yuan Yuan and her two maids.
These two maids must have been specially sought by Che'er to protect Yuanyuan, and it should be okay to think about martial arts, but how capable can a young girl's family be?
Anyway, he didn't dare to have too much hope for them, and if he could protect Yuan Yuan, even if they made a great contribution.
As for Yuan Yuan...... Although the fourth child always said how powerful she was, he secretly thought that this girl was always a mouthful.
With those thin arms and thin legs, it's really not that he underestimates her, hitting a person's body is about the same as a mosquito bite.
Doudou didn't know that he was being underestimated again, and only held the hilt of the Frost Soul tightly in his palm, beware of a surprise attack that didn't know when he would return.
Emperor Yongtai's martial arts are not the best, but he knows how big the difference is between having weapons in his hands and not having weapons in times of crisis.
He took out a long sword and a dagger of incomparable sharpness from the compartment of the carriage.
The long sword was prepared for himself, and the dagger was directly stuffed into Gu Ge Lao's hand.
The corners of Gu Ge Lao's mouth twitched violently, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that His Majesty gave him a sharp dagger at this time, and he was rewarded for self-cutting.
It is said that starvation is a small matter and a big loss of moderation, could it be that an old man like him, who is already about to become a leader, will he fail to apostatize?
Emperor Yongtai didn't care what his mentor was thinking, pulled out the long sword, and poked his head out of the car window again.
If the battle before Yunni Mountain Villa was considered a Shura field in Doudou's eyes, then the situation in front of him at this moment was hell on earth.
Apart from the sound of swords clashing, what shouting, roaring, moaning...... None of them.
Whether dead or wounded, it seemed to these people that none of them existed.
Only keep killing, killing, killing!
The casualties of the guards were significantly smaller than those of the men in black, but because of the absolute disadvantage in numbers, the men in black kept closing in on the carriage.
Emperor Yongtai was a little anxious in his heart, not because he was afraid that the dark guards were not the opponents of the man in black, but because he was worried about the news that had just come from the storm.
One hundred and eighty miles is a matter of time for the cavalry, and if they don't send troops over to reinforce as soon as possible, they probably won't be able to hold out for a stick of incense with the little force guarding the city gate alone.
In addition, the sky has already dawned, and the people outside the city have begun to enter the city one after another, and they will definitely suffer from the fish in the pond.
"Uncle Emperor, look—" Doudou suddenly called out.
"What's wrong?" Emperor Yongtai quickly raised his head and looked in the direction Doudou was pointing.
I saw that the formation of the black-clothed man in front of the carriage was suddenly chaotic, and he was obviously attacked by surprise.
Doudou sat on horseback and looked into the distance, and said in surprise: "It was my eldest brother who brought someone here." ”
She was not mistaken, the people who came were not only Pei Jincheng and those dead soldiers of the Pei family, but also the other nine of the eighteen secret guards.
