Chapter 243: Captured

Zhu Huishu, the king of Qi, lent a full 5,000 men and horses to Zhu Ciyi, just for the witch woman with a very special identity in Zhu Ciyi's mouth.

Zhu Ciyi took it unceremoniously.

He originally thought that his relationship with the imperial uncle was only willing to contribute 3,000 soldiers and horses at most, but he never thought that over the years, the Food and Drug Administration Department had lacked the supply of witch blood to the point that it was unsustainable, so that this prince who was originally dominant in the government and the opposition had to bow his head for a mere woman.

Zhu Ciyi didn't expect these two extra people, and he believed that Tang Yinbrown didn't expect it either.

In this case, Zhu Ciyi believed that the 2,000 people who were lying in ambush behind the city wall would be the key to his victory.

Because his purpose was not to arrest Tang Yinbrown from the beginning, but to transfer him away from Xin Zi's side, so that his two thousand men and horses could have a chance.

Zhao Chengru guarded Xin Zi tightly behind him, looking at the dilemma of his five hundred people being surrounded by two thousand people in the distance.

He didn't dare to say what the odds of the five hundred guards in the city were against the two thousand iron horsemen outside the city, but he was confident that he could hold out until dawn - this round of full moon set, and the time for Tang Yinhao's side to sword King Xin had come.

But when a veteran unexpectedly appeared in front of Zhao Chengru, a trace of bitterness flashed in front of his eyes.

The veteran's dark cyan armor was not bright, and even faintly yellowed and faded due to the traces of time, and his dark and stone-like face was full of traces of years of battlefield experience.

"General Yi."

Zhao Chengru shouted, his tone was calm, but he unconsciously clenched the embroidered spring knife in his hand, revealing his inner uneasiness.

Yi Lei, the general stationed in the border, the number one right-hand man under King Xin, and the most brilliant one of King Xin's forces before Tang Yinbrown appeared.

When he was young, he went on the Western Expedition with Emperor Gaotian, and was exceptionally promoted because of his bravery and good fighting and repeated military exploits. Later, Emperor Gaotian grew old and gradually gave up his ambition to recover the western continent, but Yi Lei still admired the Western Expedition, and finally disagreed with the old emperor, and left Tokyo angrily to garrison the east-west border, which was more than ten years.

The reason why he threw himself into King Xin was naturally because King Xin always advocated annihilating him in one fell swoop when the West was not yet in the climate. And the reason why King Xin has the confidence to always compete with the tiger talisman in the hands of King Qi over the years is also due to the presence of such a general and the 30,000 fierce cavalry he brought.

Tang Yinbrown's early envoy's combat body knife, the knife technique is violent, and a knife can give birth to the momentum of resisting thousands of troops and horses, and it is when he was transferred to the west to garrison the border that he inherited the hand of this old-timer.

Why did such a fierce general appear outside the West Gate of Tokyo at this moment?

After Zhao Chengru was confused for a short time, he shook his head helplessly and smiled: "Prince Xin is really good, and he actually invited you, an old man who is guarding the west like a mountain, to move, is it just for such a weak woman behind me?" A dignified general who has been in the field for many years and has killed decisively, and now the sword and axe that should have been aimed at the enemy have pointed at the heads of innocent people. ”

Yi Lei got a hundred thousand urgent summons from King Xin five days ago and ordered him to return to Beijing quickly, and then he was able to appear by the city wall on this full moon night day and night, and led two battalions of cavalry to surround Zhao Chengru and Xin Zi.

"I respect Lord Zhao as a Qing official loyal to His Majesty, I never thought that I would have such a kung fu to play with words? What is the origin of the woman behind you, presumably Commander Zhao knows better than me, right? ”

Zhao Chengru sank his face when he heard this, didn't say anything more, drew his knife across his chest, and prepared for battle.

Now that everyone knows what they are fighting for, and the camp has already stood clear, there is no need to talk nonsense. Although Zhao Chengru didn't dare to say that he could win Yi Lei, who was in the best state in his early years, he was now young and vigorous, and he boasted that he lost Tang Yinbrown in Tokyo City.

Seeing this, Yi Lei couldn't hide the look of appreciation in his eyes, he had always disliked those verbal battles before the battle, and when he could use the knife in his hand to speak, he would decisively use the knife, and it would be useless to spend those saliva talking more.

The kid in front of him looks like a scholar who doesn't like him, but he does things neatly. If it were a normal encounter, I would only be afraid that I would have to have two bowls of fun with him.

Thinking like this in his heart, the knife in his hand is not ambiguous at all, a single knife forward, a simple chop and a slash, without any fancy moves, only with a strong momentum.

The two blades touched, Yi Lei pressed forward step by step, but Zhao Chengru retreated again and again. is just a comparison of strength and strength, Zhao Chengru, who is as weak as a scholar, is not an opponent of a battle-hardened veteran at all.

But Zhao Chengru has been in Jinyiwei for many years, and he is used to doing shady things, so naturally he can't get rid of it so easily.

He saw the opportunity, took advantage of Yi Lei's pressure to come over, found a negligent gap in his arms, and turned around the single knife in his hand, skillfully winding out a knife flower, the original cross against the knife instantly collapsed, the handle of the embroidered spring knife turned against the other party's jaw, and the blade was gently pried, and the single knife in Yi Lei's hand was flicked out.

Yi Lei lost his knife and instantly changed his momentum from gong to defense, and hurriedly retreated. Zhao Chengru took advantage of the victory to pursue, striving to knock down the enemy at the most accurate time, leaving no room for him to counterattack.

In just five moves, the young Jinyi Guard commander had already gained the upper hand and forced the old general into a corner.

Seeing that the outcome was a foregone conclusion, Zhao Cheng was about to slash at Yi Lei's shoulder, when he caught a glimpse of a figure in the same place, his brain exploded instantly, and his body was shocked, forgetting that he was in the middle of a battle to the death.

The original woman was dressed in a white robe, and the green silk was held high into a bunch, dressed like a man, and her heroic spirit was compelling.

"Bao'er ......"

Zhao Chengru muttered two words. I don't understand why Zhu Haobao, who was secretly sent out of the city by himself after spending so much effort, reappeared outside the West City Gate at this time, followed by Tang Jiashan and dozens of Tang Mansion guards. Isn't it his own person who exposed her whereabouts when he sent her out of the city?

Yi Lei saw that Zhao Chengru was only one last move away from being able to subdue himself, and was about to accept his fate, but he saw that this kid suddenly lost his mind and stood there like crazy, on the battlefield, a moment of panic will be in a different place, this truth can only be understood by people like him who are crawling out in the sea of corpses.

So at that moment, he quickly stepped forward and snatched Xiuchun with his backhand, without giving Zhao Chengru any chance to regret it. (To be continued.) )
