Chapter 718: Protecting Food
"Ignition!"
Qin Zhao listened to the sound of the horse's hooves getting closer and closer, and his mood was also very nervous, so he gave an order, Sun Yang quickly lit the torch at this time, this straw had been dried, and when it encountered fire, it burned instantly, this road was originally narrow, and at most it could only accommodate three or four people side by side.
"Go find some more branches, throw them here, block the way, don't let them catch up!"
Sun Yang was very clever at this time, looking at a slope next to this, there were also a lot of trees growing on the slope, these trees grew obliquely, and the soldiers below listened to it, and they ran to the side to cut down the trees, and soon dozens of tree trunks were piled up on the road, blocking the road to death.
At this moment, these subordinates of the Queen Mother have also arrived, this road is very narrow, on weekdays, they are unable to take this road because of the number of troops, just these people have to spend a lot of time through this road, they have always taken the big road on weekdays, but now that they saw Qin Zhao running from here with these people, they naturally followed.
Seeing this raging fire, the deputy general's face was an ugly look at this time, and the queen mother was also brought here while sitting in the carriage, looking at the flames in front of her, she suddenly had a desperate look on her face.
"Despicable!"
"Queen Mother, we can't get over this situation now, this fire is so big, and it is stopped by these branches, and there are cliffs on these sides......"
The adjutant general was dejected at this time, he could only watch Qin Zhao, leading those soldiers to gradually move away from them, although these soldiers were pushing carts, and the carts were pulling heavy grains, but after all, they were on the other side, and if they wanted to catch up, they had to pass through this sea of fire.
But the fire is getting bigger and bigger, the straw that stretches for dozens of meters on the ground has been burning, and these branches have also been ignited, the fire is getting bigger and bigger, the queen mother's hand is tightly clenched into a fist, and the long nails are embedded in the flesh of her palm.
"Damn!"
The Queen Mother took a deep breath and yelled hysterically, she watched Qin Zhao leave like this, and snatched Guan Tongshu and the two children away, knowing all this, the Queen Mother was almost about to faint, but now she felt that she was gone.
In today's battle, although her evacuation was timely, and the loss of troops was not too much, but most of the food had been taken away by them, and she still had tens of thousands of soldiers in her hands, how could this food be supplied, the Queen Mother was almost in a state of collapse at this time, watching these people push the cart away little by little, the Queen Mother's heart was already on the verge of exploding.
"I don't care, don't tell me this, chase after me, pass through this sea of fire, cut off Qin Zhao's head for me, if anyone can come back to see me with Qin Zhao's head, one thousand taels of gold!"
The queen mother said this, the soldiers below were eager to try, the adjutant general looked at the raging fire at this time, but sighed helplessly, the soldiers listened to the queen mother's words, rushed forward through the sea of fire, but this fire is bigger than they imagined, as soon as they entered, the hair burned instantly, and then the clothes on the body were also burned, and suddenly a group of people poured into the sea of fire, but there was a scream.
The Queen Mother took a deep breath to calm herself down.
"Qin Zhao, I Mu Qing and you are inseparable in this life, and today I will definitely ask for your dog's life to collect debts!"
The Queen Mother said viciously, but seeing this situation, she knew that even if she really took out a thousand taels of gold today, no one would be able to bring Qin Zhao's head back to see her, she looked at the deputy general next to her. Dancing God eBook
"Why are you still stunned here? Hurry up and chase after me, if you can't catch Qin Zhao back, you don't have to come back to see me today!" ”
The Queen Mother saw a hesitant look on the face of this general, looking at his greedy appearance and fear of death, the Queen Mother was bitter in her heart, raised the whip in her hand and whipped the rich general's horse fiercely. The frightened horse ran up and rushed into the flames.
Suddenly, the negative adult was frightened, fell to the ground, and fell to the ground.
This sea of fire engulfed him in an instant, and the Queen Mother watched these people being engulfed and scorched by the fire one by one, and when she heard the continuous screams, she closed her eyes slightly.
Qin Zhao rode his horse and looked back, only to see that across this sea of fire, it seemed that there were still people who had broken through the sea of fire, Qin Zhao's eyes saw that several people had already ridden horses, broke through this sea of fire, and were chasing after them, but the situation became extremely urgent at this time.
Because they were pushing a cart, even if the cart was pulled by a horse, but this speed was not as fast as these people riding a horse alone, Qin Zhao was very anxious, and rushed to the front on a horse, and then looked at the road in front of him but instantly showed a smile.
Now the place where their troops are stationed is in a low-lying area, but this is in the middle of a mountainside, and all you have to climb up this hill is the way down.
Qin Zhao's heart was hanging in the air at this time, and there were soldiers riding horses behind him who had already caught up, Qin Zhao looked at these soldiers, they were driving the carriage in order to carry the grain, naturally they had no time to do anything more, and if a soldier was injured, he would at least give up a cart of food.
Qin Zhao suddenly made up his mind in his heart, riding a horse side by side with Sun Yang, Sun Yang and another soldier with two children rode at the front of the team, seeing Qin Zhao catching up, he breathed a sigh of relief, no matter what, protecting the emperor's safety is the most important, but he didn't expect that after Qin Zhao was side by side with him, he stopped him.
"Your Majesty, you ...... Yes! ”
Guan Tongshu seemed to have discovered the reason for Qin Zhao's actions, after Sun Yang was forced to stop, Qin Zhao hugged Guan Tongshu, turned around and threw Guan Tongshu on Sun Yang's horse, and then turned the horse's head without looking back, and rode towards the back of the team, Sun Yang was startled, and saw a woman suddenly in front of him, and then looked at Guan Tongshu's face with a frightened look.
After Qin Zhao entrusted Guan Tongshu to Sun Yang, he instantly turned around and rode to the back of the team, and at this time, several soldiers under the Queen Mother had already caught up.
Qin Zhao endured the pain on her feet, raised her sword mercilessly, and killed a soldier with one sword, just then she heard footsteps from behind, and then saw that it was Sun Yang, Sun Yang was riding a horse at this time, but Guan Tongshu was not on the horse.
"Sun Yang, I asked you to protect the queen mother, what are you doing here? What about the Queen? ”
Qin Zhao saw Sun Yang's frowning brows, and asked Sun Yang angrily, Sun Yang quickly stretched out his hand at this time, and cut down the person who wanted to sneak attack Qin Zhao with a sword, and blood sprayed in an instant.
"The emperor doesn't have to worry, I have handed over the queen mother to the first carriage, and the queen mother is still safe, but I must protect the emperor's safety!"
Sun Yang rode his horse in a circle as he spoke, fighting with the soldiers who were chasing him, and suddenly there was a sound of metal colliding, Qin Zhao heard this, sighed and didn't say anything more, and Sun Yang cooperated with each other, three times and two blows, and several people fell under their swords.
