Chapter 0257 - Not an Inch of Land

Bao Acai glanced at Jing Xiaotian and didn't say anything.

Jing Xiaotian immediately understood that she must have been in a state of mental dissociation just now, and Ma Qin did not dare to act rashly, so he delayed the fighter.

"I don't know what happened to Zhao Dan? Did he really follow my call to the plane-time gate? Is all this real or a dream? ”

Jing Xiaotian shook his head and didn't think about it anymore, the most important thing in front of him was to live, and then it was possible to know the truth of the matter.

She glanced at Bao Acai's body, and her eyes fell on the water bladder on her.

When Bao Acai saw Jing Xiaotian's action, he hurriedly untied the water bladder, unscrewed the plug, and handed it to Jing Xiaotian's mouth.

Jing Xiaotian took a few sips, and felt that his physical strength had recovered a lot, and he had returned to a normal state.

She casually untied the musket worn by Bao Acai and said: "The enemy invades, how can there be a reason to escape, this is our land, we must protect every grass and tree here, how can we allow others to trample on it!" ”

With that, he strode out, carrying his gun.

At this time, the initial panic in the Ziyang Territory had passed, and the people all consciously picked up their weapons and quickly ran into the Ziyang Mountain.

Over the years, Ma Qin has turned this place into a place where all the people are soldiers, and the layout of the territory has also changed a lot, and the old and young women and children all live in the innermost part of the territory, close to Bancheng.

At the junction of the Ziyang Territory and the Beiyuan Kingdom, a number of strong men with combat experience were sent to ride horses and graze cattle there, paying attention to vigilance.

It's a pity that this time the Beiyuan State came prepared, took advantage of the night to kill those vigilant people, robbed those cattle and sheep, and after the horses, they went directly to the hinterland of the Ziyang Territory, which caught Ma Qin off guard.

When Jing Xiaotian appeared in everyone's sight, the people in Ziyang Territory had already been organized by Ma Qin and were shooting in batches in an orderly manner.

The cavalry of the Beiyuan Kingdom, which galloped on horseback in the wilderness, became a live target, and under the attack of muskets, they kept rolling off their horses and screaming on the ground.

There were also those who were skilled in horsemanship, hiding their bodies on the side of their horses, trying to rush into the crowd and engage in meat fights, and Ma Qin ordered people to shoot at the horses.

The wounded horses kept falling, and the cavalry had no horses, so they had to lie on the ground to avoid the fierce fire of the horses.

At this time, Jing Xiaotian appeared behind Ma Qin, and Ma Qin was anxious when he saw it, and shouted loudly: "How can the Queen Mother come to such a place, this is too dangerous!" Bao Acai, quickly take the Queen Mother to a safe place. ”

Jing Xiaotian said unhurriedly: "Don't shout, won't this wave of people be wiped out immediately?" Wipe them out, and it'll be safe here! What we have is ammunition, and I'm afraid he won't make it! ”

When everyone saw Jing Xiaotian's fearless appearance, they were immediately greatly encouraged, and they consciously surrounded the human wall in front of Jing Xiaotian, sacrificing their lives to open fire on the attacking enemy.

As night fell, it slowly darkened.

The army of the Northern Yuan Kingdom could not hold it and finally retreated.

Ma Qin didn't dare to chase after him, and after leaving some people to sentry, he relied on his familiarity with the terrain and quietly led the people in the territory to retreat to the underground mine.

This mine was originally left by Zhao Dan when he was mining gold, and after Jing Xiaotian returned from Shilan City, Ma Qin strengthened these mines, and at the same time, continued to excavate, and finally built a secret underground passage that led directly to Bancheng.

This passage is prepared to prepare for the surprise attack of the Northern Yuan Kingdom, there are dry food, water, ammunition and other things, as well as thick felt, this is a warehouse in peacetime, and it is a secret passage in wartime, and it really comes in handy when I don't think of it.

After everyone ate and drank, they spread out the blankets and rested on the spot, preparing to fight again in the morning.

It is said that yesterday evening, the cavalry that suddenly appeared here was actually the advance army of the Beiyuan Kingdom to conquer the Andai Kingdom this time.

The team numbered less than 1,000 and was responsible for reconnoitring and clearing the way for the large army.

These people didn't take An Daiguo seriously, and rushed over with a big grin along the way.

Originally, they wanted to take advantage of the night to get some cattle and sheep back here and give a good meal to the people of the large army.

Unexpectedly, in the face of such stubborn resistance, almost all of the team was lost here.

The few people who were lucky enough to escape back appeared in front of the Generalissimo of Pingbei with rolling and crawling, crying and telling what happened in the Ziyang Territory.

This generalissimo is the younger brother of Li Chen, the emperor of the Beiyuan Kingdom, Li Xinran's father, Li Chuang, the king of Rui!

When Li Chuang heard the news, he couldn't believe his ears.

He narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's going on?" The advance cavalry team, more than 800 people, all left behind in the Ziyang territory, became corpses? How is this possible! ”

As he spoke, his sharp gaze fell on Ruan Yanluo, who was standing on the side, and asked loudly, "Didn't you say that there are only some working slaves in the Ziyang Territory, and there is no army guarded?" ”

Before the battle began, the most elite cavalry was wiped out! This made Li Chuangqing embarrassed.

Ruan Yanluo was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and replied with great certainty: "Lord Wang, I use the head of Xiang Shang as a guarantee, and there is absolutely no army in the Ziyang Territory. ”

Li Chuang looked at Ruan Yanluo and asked the soldiers again, "Who did it?" ”

The few soldiers who escaped trembled and replied timidly: "It's the slaves in the territory, that place, all the people are soldiers, and everyone has a particularly powerful weapon in their hands, which can burst into flames and take people's lives in the air!" ”

Li Chuang listened, his brows furrowed, and he was speechless for a long time.

At this time, Li Xinran, who was standing on the side, suddenly spoke:

"Father, do you still remember the war between the father and son of the Jin family in the Xiyue Kingdom?"

Li Chuang turned his head and looked at his daughter beside him, his eyes full of doubts.

Li Xinran explained: "I heard the soldiers who returned from the battlefield say that Jin Hexi had mysteriously disappeared for a period of time, and when he returned to the battlefield, he brought back some very powerful firearms, which defeated Xiyue in one fell swoop. ”

When Li Chuang heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly, and his eyes suddenly became cold.

He had also heard about it, and he planned to ask Jin Hexi about it, but before he could ask, Jin Hexi fell off the horse and fell into a disability, and the matter was delayed.

Thinking of this, Li Chuang nodded slightly, and said to himself: "Well, what is it, what is it, so lethal?" ”

"It's better to let Ruan Yanluo send a few people to the territory, grab a few slaves with weapons, and ask carefully, save the time, the army will suffer!"

Li Xinran suggested.

"It's okay, Ruan Yanluo, I've worked hard for you!" Li Chuang stared at Ruan Yanluo with blazing eyes, the meaning is obvious, this time, you must make things clear to me!

Ruan Yanluo responded sharply: "Please rest assured!" He retreated, took a few people with him, and ran towards the Ziyang territory. (To be continued.) )
