Zhao Liang's horse fell behind, and it seemed that it was about to enter the range of the pursuers' bows and arrows. The three of them who were galloping in front couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: they are worthy of being the heroines of the female army who command the border army! At a critical juncture, only such a general will give up the chance to live to his brother, and choose to break off.

It's a pity that they don't know that Zhao Liang, who has the "demeanor of a general", is about to pee out at this time, or rather, he is about to pee out when he is scared. He wasn't willing to break off, but because he didn't ride well, he didn't run fast.

Shen Zuolan's doorman had been chasing after him all day, and he had no intention of giving up. This kind of perseverance made Zhao Liang angry and scolded. But scolding and scolding, the terrifying aura of death was clearly forced towards him, and the blades and arrows of the large group of people behind him were getting closer and closer to Zhao Liang, I, Nima, knew that this was the case, it was better to let Yu Li fight with them last night!

As the imperial envoy of the Son of Heaven, Zhao Liang is extremely incompetent. He didn't plan to make a good patrol, so he planned to go to Cangyan City to see the flowers and go home. But he never thought that now he didn't even realize the idea of coping with such an errand, so he got into a big trouble and fled for his life.

Looking at the state of the pursuers now, they must never stop without killing people and destroying their mouths. If you have the heart to turn around and fight back, in the face of hundreds of outlaws with superb martial arts and who are not afraid of death, you are not even sure that you can save your life, let alone the other three.

Just when Zhao Liang felt that he had become a strong crossbow and was about to fall off the horse with exhaustion, the two in front of him, Su Li and Shen Changlie in front of him turned around and rushed back, one left and one right sandwiched on both sides of Zhao Liang. Shen Changlie grabbed the reins of Zhao Liang's horse, accelerated the sprint, and instantly led Zhao Liang's crotch horse to gallop. Su Li cut a palm on the horse stock, adding another force to Zhao Liang. The war horse was in pain and suddenly raised his speed, almost throwing Zhao Liang away, so frightened that he hurriedly grabbed the bridge ring of the saddle, and his legs were slightly propped up, allowing the horse to bump wildly.

With the help of the two of them, Zhao Liang quickly widened the distance between him and the pursuers, and gradually caught up with Baofu, who was running at the front. Seeing the three of them approaching, Bao Fu shouted, "General, where are we going?" ”

Yu Li replied for Zhao Liang: "To the north, go to the Demon King Ridge!" As he spoke, he took out a fireworks cannon from his bosom and shot it into the air with shaking hands. Even though it was daylight, the cannon exploded in mid-air, and the sound was still heard for miles. In this way, every time he ran out of a distance of about ten miles, he released a letter cannon, and it took four rounds in succession to run out.

And after running down for forty or fifty miles, the war horses of several of them finally couldn't support it, and they fell to the ground one after another, foaming at the mouth. Zhao Liang endured the burning pain in his inner thigh, gritted his teeth and followed the others to continue running on foot. But without the support of his feet, the pursuers behind him rushed to the front in a blink of an eye. It turned out that each of these dead soldiers rode a horse and led a horse, and they were repeatedly changed on the road, so they could maintain sufficient pursuit power and drag down Zhao Liang and them alive.

He turned his head to look at the enemy who was getting closer and closer, then raised his hand and pointed to the dense forest not far away, and shouted, "You run there, I'll stop them!" Shen Changlie stopped at the same time and said, "I'm with you!" Turning to meet the pursuers, he jumped up a foot high and kicked the nearest knight with his legs. Shen Changlie concocted the same method, and also flew into the enemy. However, he was not so chic and free as he left, but rolled off his horse with a pursuer in his arms.

The two of them volleyed, attracting the attention of a large number of pursuers, but at the same time, because people kept falling off their horses, the chaotic situation temporarily blocked the way forward. But even so, there were still many knights who were on the side and bypassed everyone and continued to chase after Zhao Liang and Bao Fu.

Zhao Liang once again realized the advantage of Zheng Ni's physical fitness at this time, and his speed was still unabated after running more than 200 steps. But the rich are not so good. The fat general was already tired of being a dog, sticking out his tongue and running slower and slower. Zhao Liang grabbed him by the collar and shouted as he ran: "Hold on a little longer, and you will be safe in the forest!" ”

"I don't ...... Come on! "Praise Fu stumbled, and the knot fell firmly and gnawed on the mud. Because his weight was too exaggerated, he fell, and even Zhao Liang was torn over, and he rolled into a ball with Praise Fu.

A knight came quickly from behind, holding his bronze sword aloft, with a cruel smile on his face, ready to solve Zhao Liang and the two in one fell swoop.

Zhao Liang saw that the other party was killed directly, and secretly shouted in his heart: My life is over! Mom! Slaughter! Fourth brother! Xiaoya! Farewell! Can you give me a heroic sacrifice when you look back?

Just as he was thinking wildly, a bowstring suddenly sounded in the dense forest ahead, and then a feathered arrow shot out of the air, which was worthy of shooting the knight off his horse.

Before Zhao Liang and Bao Fu could react, Lin Zhong was already already screaming with murderous sounds, and a large number of soldiers swarmed out, violently pounceing on the chasing soldiers and dead soldiers. Zhao Liang fixed his eyes and looked at it, my obedient man, the person who came was the bandit brother on the Demon King Ridge, and the person who led it was the bronze hammer general Erya!

Several thieves ran to Zhao Liang's side, carefully helped them up, and asked with concern: "General, you are not injured, are you?" Zhao Liang shook his head, pointed not far away, and said urgently: "I'm fine, hurry up and save your big village master!" ”

As he spoke, Erya had already killed near the distance, and a pair of big copper hammers flew up and down, and the chasing soldiers who smashed them cried and shouted for their mothers, and they were defeated and retreated. Su Li and Shen Changlie were already on the verge of life and death, with injuries everywhere on their bodies, and they were about to die under the enemy's sword. Suddenly, the situation turned around and reinforcements came, which made the two of them become more combative. He scolded loudly: "I greet your mother's mother!" He took a long pole handed by his subordinates, turned over his horse, and slaughtered the pursuers. Shen Changlie also grabbed a bronze sword, searched around for the fallen dead soldiers, and cooked them one by one.

In less than a cup of hot tea, the 100th pursuer was cut to pieces by the bandits, and less than 20 people escaped without looking back.

Erya ordered his subordinates not to pursue, stay and clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and then accompany Mi Li and Shen Changlie to find Zhao Liang to rendezvous. Taking advantage of the time when the two of them bandaged their wounds, Er Ya introduced to everyone the process of coming to the rescue in time.

It turned out that this place was already very close to the Demon King Ridge. On weekdays, in order to prevent the encirclement and suppression of various vassal states, there are patrol eyeliners of cottages within a radius of 100 miles. Four fireworks cannons were sent out one after another along the way, which had already alarmed the secret sentinels everywhere, and sent the alarm to the Demon King Ridge like flying. When Erya received the report, she immediately knew that the situation was not good. Because this kind of letter cannon is only available to Qi Li and Erya, and since the establishment of the cottage, this arrogant boss rarely uses the letter cannon. Not only did I use it today, but I also used it four times at once, panicked like a frightened rabbit, obviously encountering an extremely dangerous situation.

So Er Ya didn't hesitate at all, and immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to hurry down the mountain, and hurried to meet them. Fortunately, he reacted quickly, otherwise if it was a moment and a half late, I am afraid that he would have to collect the bodies of these four people.

Zhao Liang was embarrassed when he heard it, and secretly sighed that he was blessed with a great life, and together with the three partners who escaped death, he couldn't stop praising Erya for being quite a general. Erya was embarrassed to be praised by them, grinning widely, and even said that it was okay to do nothing.

After waiting to heal his injuries, he asked Zhao Liang: "Sister Ni, what should we do next, should we go back to the Demon King Ridge, or go to Shenhou to distinguish right from wrong?" ”

Shen Changlie said without thinking: "Of course, I rushed back to find my father." If Shen Zuolan, a traitor, can't make a plan, he will inevitably come up with another trick, and his father will be in danger if he is kept in the dark. ”

Zhao Liang shook his head: "I don't think it's appropriate." Let's go back now, although we can explain yesterday's events, but it is difficult to guarantee that Shen Zuolan will not lay a trap for us to jump. If you want to remind Hou Ye, only a letter from the son is enough. In addition, we will not go to the cottage anymore, and immediately set off to return to Hojing, explain the situation to the king, and then make a decision. His mind is very clear, the most important thing now is to join Wang Xiaosi and Zheng Luya, and quickly complete the task of capturing King Zhou You, otherwise, once he really implements the "joint production contract responsibility system", then Lou Zike will break the sky.

Zhao Liang's statement was immediately fully supported by Baofu, and for the fat general, it was not as safe as Hojing.

He felt that it didn't matter where he went, as long as he followed Zheng Ni, so he agreed: "That's fine." Then please ask Gongzi to work hard, write a letter to Shenhou to explain the situation, and ask him to treat my five hundred brothers well, and it is best to release them immediately. ”

"And five hundred Royal Guards." Bao Fu followed and instructed.

Shen Changlie wanted to insist on personally returning to Shen Guo to report the news, but he saw that Zhao Liang was resolute, so he didn't say anything more. Anyway, no matter how powerful Shen Zuolan is, it is impossible to hurt his father by half a hair, and he can also achieve his goal by writing to remind him. Besides, Zhao Liang's words are reasonable, if he rashly goes back and mistakenly falls for the other party's tricks, it will make his father fall for the rat. So he asked Er Ya for pen, ink and bamboo slips, wrote a short message bit by bit, and handed it to the messenger of the cottage to send it to Shenguo.

After everything was done, Zhao Liang ordered to set off quickly. This time, he had no reason to refuse the bandits' intention to submit, so he had to take 4,000 men and horses and hundreds of oxen and horses to march towards Hojing.

In less than ten days, Zhao Liang and the others arrived near Gyeonggi, and the general of the capital guard had already received the report and led his people to meet him.

When he saw thousands of bandit soldiers in tattered clothes and hideous faces, he couldn't help but gasp. Looking at Zhao Liang on the left, and looking at Praise on the right, the city guard general wanted to ask but didn't dare to ask, and he didn't know what to say. Seeing the general's concerns, he explained in a relaxed tone: "Don't be nervous. These were all country volunteers, who voluntarily followed their command because they admired the prestige of the general. They don't need to enter Hojing, they just need to be led to the border army camp for temporary resettlement. ”

Hearing him say this, the city guard general became even more embarrassed: "General Bao, I'm afraid this is not easy to do." Three days ago, the Ying border army had already been mobilized. ”

"Pulled?!" Zhao Liang and Bao Fu said in surprise. Even if Zhao Liang's sense of identity in the era is dull, he clearly understands that the Ying Clan's border army is his direct subordinate army, and he, the commander, has not given an order, how can the whole army be pulled out?

The general of the city guard explained: "The general does not know that the order for the transfer of troops from the border army was given by the king himself, and the person in charge of commanding the troops was the head of the Ying clan who came to Hojing from the western Xinjiang - Ying Kai. ”

Zheng Ni was a frontier general appointed by the imperial court, so the Ying border army was subordinate to her moderation, which was administratively subordinate. But Ying Kai is the head of a clan, and all the border soldiers are his children, so when it comes to intimacy, of course, he is more prestigious than Zheng Ni.

Bao Fuwu was puzzled: "Why do you suddenly want to change generals and transfer troops?" Where to transfer? ”

"I don't know what to do." The general of the city guard replied: "But listening to the people in the palace, it seems that it is because I have received news that the dog Rong may be going to invade the territory on a large scale, so General Win urgently needs to lead his troops to prevent it." ”
