Chapter 55: Desperate Survival

Mayi, the city gate has been closed, but fortunately, the county commander of Mayi City is a corrupt official, and he has been bribed by Zhangjiazhai for many years.

Zhang Tianai gave an order, and fifty horses rode straight to Dingxiang. No one asked why, these fifty horsemen were all dead soldiers raised by Zhangjiazhai since childhood, and they were absolutely obedient to Zhang Tianai's orders, even if she ordered to kill herself, they would not hesitate to execute it.

Bai Qiaoqiao and Zhang Tianai rode together, brought one more person, with Zhang Tianai's riding skills, it was not a problem at all, the horse galloped without hindrance, and after an hour, the horse was returned in front of him, and he found that there were people coming to Ma Yi not far away. Zhang Tianai immediately took Bai Qiaoqiao to the front, and by the light of the torch, Bai Qiaoqiao saw Bai Hao'er in front of the team at a glance. It's hard to worry about his old arms and legs, obviously he was the last to go, but at this time he actually ran to the front of the line, so tired that he was wheezing. Suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of him, and Bai Hao'er only thought that the Turks were coming, and he was so frightened that the blood on his face was gone, and he was paralyzed on the ground, unable to get up again.

Bai Qiaoqiao got off the horse, ran to Bai Hao'er, and said, "Dad, how did you escape, what about my brother, what about my Langjun?" ”

"Daughter?!" Bai Hao'er saw that it was Bai Qiaoqiao, and she was overjoyed, and grabbed her arm: "I'm not mistaken, daughter, it's really you!" Who are these people? ”

"They are from Zhangjiazhai, I begged to save you." Bai Qiaoqiao hurriedly said: "Dad, you haven't answered my question yet, what about my brother?" What about Lang Jun? ”

"The Turks are too strong to resist. Li Mu found a secret passage and let us escape first. He didn't leave, he gave me twenty taels of silver, and your stupid brother refused to leave, and the county magistrate and a few people who were not afraid of death were still in the city! ”

"Lang Jun......" Bai Qiaoqiao sobbed and said to Bai Nao'er: "Dad, you go to Ma Yi first, I have to save Lang Jun!" ”

"Don't be stupid!" Bai Lao'er grabbed a handful and didn't catch it, and said hurriedly: "What are you going to do now!" Dingxiang must have fallen, how many of you are going to die? Your brother is gone, if you go again, who do you expect from your father to support the elderly! ”

"Daddy! I'm sorry, I'm going to find Lang Jun! Bai Qiaoqiao stretched out his hand to let Zhang Tianai pull the horse, and the fifty horsemen bypassed the people, speeding up and running towards Dingxiang. After a short walk, suddenly the west was full of fire, Zhang Tianai grabbed the reins and said: "It seems that what your father said is right, Dingxiang City has fallen, and the city has been set on fire." ”

Bai Qiaoqiao was full of tears, grabbed Zhang Tianai's arm and begged: "Sister, even if the city falls, my family Langjun may not necessarily die." Even if he dies, I will collect his body, good sister, I beg you, you can take me there. ”

Zhang Tianai is a soft-hearted person, he was so crying by Bai Qiaoqiao that he couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and said: "Sister, I'll give you another ride, if you get to the vicinity of the city, the Turks haven't left, don't blame my sister for being ruthless, I can only order to return, and I won't fight with the Turks." ”

Bai Qiaoqiao's heart had already flown to Dingxiang City, and she didn't hear what Zhang Tianai said, only heard the words 'send you another ride', and she was busy thanking her. Seeing her like this, Zhang Tianai sighed, waved the whip in his hand, and continued to move forward.

Another hour passed, and the group met Bai Gensheng's gang who escaped after setting the fire. After asking, I heard Bai Gensheng say that except for Li Mu, they all escaped, and there were nearly a thousand Turkic soldiers in the city, Bai Qiaoqiao's eyes were suddenly full of despair. She still insisted on going to Dingxiang, but Zhang Tianai rejected her this time.

"Sister, I respect your family Langjun is a man, but at this time, we can't go, didn't you hear your brother say that there are thousands of Turkic soldiers in the city, and we are not opponents at all. I can't let my brothers die in vain, I can't promise you. ”

"If you don't send me there, I'll go by myself." Bai Qiaoqiao's stubborn temperament came up, and he got off the horse and ran forward. Bai Gensheng didn't pull it, Zhang Tianai watched her run farther and farther, and suddenly chased after her, and with a flick of the horsewhip in her hand, she rolled up Bai Qiaoqiao and pulled her back on the horse.

"You let go of me, I'm going to save my Langjun, I'm going to die with him......"

"I'm sorry, sister!" Zhang Tianai slapped Bai Qiaoqiao's back of the neck with a palm and knocked her unconscious. Zhang Tianai glanced at the blazing Dingxiang City from a distance and turned the horse's head.

Inside Dingxiang City.

One of Li Mu's 'flying grasses' successfully attacked Princess Yicheng who had just pushed open the door. The Tang knife stabbed in from the back and penetrated the chest, and Li Mu's strength combined with his own gravity 'nailed' Princess Yicheng's whole person to the ground. He didn't even scream, and died on the spot. Blood burst out, so that Li Mu's face was all over the place, fortunately, when he was guarding the city wall just now, he had already killed someone, otherwise he would definitely faint with a myocardial infarction at this time.

This is murder, in the previous life, except for the most vicious murderers, who has ever killed someone. But in the Tang Dynasty, in this chaotic border city, this scene would be staged anytime and anywhere, no one would find it strange that Li Mu also adapted to it after a battle to defend the city.

Li Mu wiped the blood from his face, took two deep breaths, stabilized his breathing, and pulled out the Tang knife from Princess Yicheng, surrounded by the shouts of the Turks, he had to speed up.

Li Mu dragged Princess Yicheng back to the house, folded his hands and confessed his guilt, and searched her. Soon, a brocade box, a scimitar, and a piece of clothing were found from behind her waist. Although it was a little strange why Princess Yicheng would bring a special piece of clothing on her body, she didn't have time to think about it, so she wrapped the brocade box in her clothes and put it in her arms. The Tang knife was too long and inconvenient, so he picked up the scimitar, crept out of the house, and climbed onto the roof again.

At this time, there was a mess in Dingxiang City, and there were fires everywhere, and the Hui people who had just opened the door of the treasure house thought that there were ambushes, and the formation was in chaos. Finally confirmed that there was no ambush, the fire had spread, and hurriedly rushed to the treasure house to grab something, and a group of people crowded together. The people who ran out with their belongings were saddened to find that the grain hoard at the exit of the secret passage they had just entered was already burning, and the fire was soaring to the sky, who dared to break in. I had no choice but to find the city gate, on the way to the city gate, a few steps into a horse pit, in a panic, who could hide. There are thistles in every pit, and they are crying fathers and mothers. When they finally ran to the city gate, the city gate was blocked again, and they were so angry that they scolded and were helpless.

Li Mu leaned on the roof and watched, making him almost laugh. The ancients said, 'Man dies for money', and sure enough, this is a fulfillment.

At this moment, a rolling muffled thunder sounded in the west, from far to near, the sound became louder and louder, Li Muhuo stood up, raised his eyes and looked, only to see a fire dragon in the west mixed with billowing smoke and dust, look at this momentum, who else could it be if it was not the Tang Dynasty cavalry!

It's finally here!
