Chapter 723: Falling Short

The arrow wound on Pang Wanchun's body was more serious than he thought. The force of the arrows shot by the crossbow machine was already much stronger than that of the bow and arrow, and it was hit at a very short distance, although he had tried his best to dodge and avoid the vital point in the chest, but this arrow still penetrated obliquely from the waist and ribs, penetrating into the lower abdomen, not to mention, and almost hit the vital point under the crotch.

Although he was not so unlucky, this arrow still injured Pang Wanchun's internal organs. After that, he parried Sun Tu's thunderous shot with all his might, and even ran for his life, which made the arrow wound more and more serious, and after only one trip, a large area of blood had been flowing down, staining the saddle and the horse's back red.

Pang Wanchun also knew that he was seriously injured, so he didn't dare to stop at all, and continued to control the horse and rush forward. At this time, there were only less than two or three hundred guards left, and the others had already been blocked by the Song army who came all the way, and they had already distanced themselves from him. And in the process of rushing forward on this road, there were constantly Song soldiers around to surround and kill, so that those guards had to constantly leave men and horses to resist after breaking off, and they only rushed for more than half a mile, and they were already damaged.

"Hoo ——!" Another spear stabbed from the side, this time at the horse under his crotch. Frightening Pang Wanchun hurriedly pulled the reins hard, controlled the war horse and jumped to the side, and at the same time, the saber that had already been in his hand swept out rapidly, just slashing the soldier's neck and killing him. This is the seventh Song soldier he personally killed in the process of breaking through, and the continuous slashing also made the wound between his waist and abdomen continue to tear and expand, and it hurts his heart. But under the siege of the enemy, he didn't even dare to stop, let alone raise his arrow to bandage it.

Seeing that he was about to break out of the siege, he had a chance to breathe, and suddenly with the sound of a horn from the rear, there was another group of men and horses in hot pursuit. The person who took the lead was the double-gun general Dong Ping, but Sun Tu was gone. Although there is still a distance between the two sides, Pang Wanchun does not dare to be careless, he has learned the skills of this Song general before, although the other party is slightly inferior to himself, but under normal circumstances, he is not lightly injured now, but he is not his opponent. So he immediately ordered: "Turn around and go to the left, avoid them!" ”

"Pang Shuai, you go first, let's stop him!" After dropping this sentence, the captain of the guard beside him didn't wait for him to respond, and he had already brought twenty or thirty people to turn around and kill Dong Ping, who had already seen them rushing over, and the two sides immediately started a fierce fight, and the screams followed.

Although these guards are more powerful than the ordinary Wu army, they are far from being able to compare with Dong Ping, I saw him dancing with two guns like a tiger entering the flock, and in just a moment, he had already stabbed several people, and even the momentum of rushing forward did not slow down. Fortunately, there were still people on the side who fell to the ground desperately and slashed the four hooves of his mount with a knife, so that Dong Ping was forced to turn to dodge, but the officers and soldiers of the Shandong Army who came with him had also been killed, and they instantly swallowed up these dozens of elite guards of the Wu army after being broken.

Hearing the screams coming from behind him, Pang Wanchun's cheeks twisted, but he didn't even turn his head back, just continued to break through, and after swinging his knife and slashing an enemy soldier in front of him, he finally fought his way out of the bloody road, and once again opened the distance between him and the pursuers. Although these people are all henchmen he has cultivated single-handedly, and it can be said that they are all brothers with him, but in such a situation, he can no longer care about feeling sad for these people, because as long as he slows down, he may be caught up, and their sacrifice will become worthless!

Without time to be sentimental and think, Pang Wanchun continued to rush forward, and then he saw several of his own flags still waving in front of the left side, which made his spirit suddenly lift, and shouted: "Go to the left and join our team!" ”

At this time, there were less than 200 people left around him, and he was already disheartened, feeling that he might lose his life here at any time. At this moment, when they saw their own flags, they suddenly came with confidence again, and hurriedly shouted and shouted, and rushed over there after Pang Wanchun.

Over there, a remnant army of more than 300 people was fighting a final battle with a considerable number of Song troops, and it was obvious that they were about to lose their grip. At this time, Pang Wanchun finally led the crowd to arrive, he didn't say a word, he had endured the pain, swung his knife again and rushed into the enemy formation, and collided head-on with Zhou Tong, who was leading the army to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop.

Zhou Tong heard the sound of killing behind him, and hurriedly looked back, and saw such a group of wounded Wu soldiers killing, and the person at the head was still clearly armored, obviously a Wu army general, and he was immediately overjoyed. didn't care about continuing to besiege the remnants in front of him, so he turned back decisively and killed the past, and the spear in his hand shook a big spear flower halfway, and stabbed it straight at the opponent's face.

Although the long knife in his hand was not the usual one, Pang Wanchun's movements did not slow down, and he only swept obliquely, and he had already raised the gun upward, while he continued to control the horse forward, and the saber also fell down along the barrel of the gun, and went straight to Zhou Tong's fingers holding the gun and cut it down.

This time it was too fast, and he was caught off guard by killing Zhou Tong. Although his martial arts are also good, he is far from Pang Wanchun's opponent, in the face of such a situation, in order to keep the ten fingers of both hands, he can only decisively abandon the gun, and then ride his horse to the side.

But this was already expected by Pang Wanchun, and at the moment when he withdrew his gun, the knife had already changed its tricks, and it slashed to the side front, landing on the road where Zhou Tong was dodging. From some people's point of view, it was as if Zhou Tong had abandoned the gun himself and slammed his body into the knife edge. And when he realized that the situation was not good, he didn't even have a chance to change direction and dodge again.

"Puff ——!" The steel knife quickly slashed into Zhou Tong's neck, and without stopping for a moment, it cut off the head of the little overlord. At this time, his body still controlled the war horse and ran forward two steps to the side, and then he fell down in a flash. It was only then that a terrible scream erupted from his mouth, but only half of it was ......

As soon as Zhou Tong died, the soldiers and horses under his command were a little chaotic. Many of them were brothers on Peach Blossom Mountain, although they had been obedient to the imperial court for many years, they still regarded him and Li Zhong as dependent, and now as soon as the leader died, they immediately panicked, and many people had scattered away.

Pang Wanchun had no intention of chasing and killing these people, and hurriedly led the crowd to rush to his own team that had escaped death, and then saw Liao Qing who was covered in blood and crumbling. The general's face was full of horror and self-blame: "Pang Shuai, the last general is confused, and the crime deserves death......" Before he finished speaking, he saw the wound on Pang Wanchun's waist and abdomen again, and he was even more shocked: "Pang Shuai, you are also injured......

Pang Wanchun also didn't expect to meet this disobedient subordinate here and now, so he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a straight face: "Don't talk about the rest, go out with me!" ”

"Yes!" Liao Qing's injuries were much more serious than Pang Wanchun's, but at this time, he agreed loudly, raised the Xuanhua axe in his hand, which was already full of gaps, and rushed forward with Pang Wanchun's side. This time, the troops around him have been replenished, and the momentum of the forward rush has become even stronger.

However, the movement here finally brought back to the senses of the officers and men of the Shandong Army who were still fighting with the Wu army in front, and with the sound of the order, many men and horses were quickly transferred to intercept and annihilate the enemy army that broke into their own formation. As a result, the strength of the frontal attack on the Wu army was also reduced, so that more Wu troops also took the opportunity to kill the front, and the two lines of soldiers and horses were even more indistinguishable, and the situation became more chaotic.

After continuing to rush forward and kill for a while, and taking the opportunity to save two more roads, he was trapped in the Song army's formation, and the number of soldiers and horses was only two or three hundred, Pang Wanchun finally had a certain amount of self-protection around him. However, the repeated killings also made his injuries worse and worse, and the large amount of blood loss made his eyes begin to bloom, and his spirit began to languish, but he was still dying with a willpower.

"Go any further, and you should be able to fight your way out of the encirclement!" The soldiers on the side shouted loudly in anticipation, they had already found that the Song army's defense line in front of them was getting weaker and weaker, and they knew that they were about to be able to join their own military horses. This made everyone's fighting spirit stronger, and everyone rushed forward desperately, protecting Pang Wanchun, who was about to be unable to sit on horseback, and Liao Qing, who was in a semi-coma, continued to break through.

But just when they broke through another line of defense and could see their own team in front of them, there was a sudden string sound on the side, and a sharp arrow was already heading straight for Pang Wanchun.

Over there, Hua Rong was leading the army to engage in a melee with the Wu army, and suddenly caught a glimpse of such a way of soldiers and horses coming out of his own formation, and there were two generals among them, he didn't even think about it, and he had already suddenly launched cold arrows.

Xiao Li Guang's archery skills are also a must, and when Pang Wanchun suddenly realized, the arrow was already coming. His body was extremely sluggish at this time, although he wanted to dodge, but his movements could not keep up, and seeing that the arrow was about to hit his neck, suddenly a figure flashed beside him, and it hit him fiercely, knocking him directly off his horse, and also making the arrow miss him. But the figure who hit him became a scapegoat, was shot by an arrow, snorted, and fell to the ground with a bang.

It took a moment for Pang Wanchun to react, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that Liao Qing was making a final convulsion on the ground, and the ground was already full of blood.

"Protect Pang Shuai! Let's kill it! The others finally came back to their senses at this time, and hurriedly rushed up, carrying Pang Wanchun with their hands and feet and rushing out. At this time, they couldn't even take care of the Song army that kept killing, and they didn't resist, only fled. After paying an extremely heavy price, they finally joined up with a Wu army that came up, and at this time, only more than 200 people were still by Pang Wanchun's side.

After Pang Wanchun joined his own team, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief, this time it was really a life of nine deaths, but unfortunately he failed to kill the main general of the Song army after all, and the only gain was to shoot their lights......

Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked up at the Song Army's central army, and then he only felt that the sky was spinning, blood and qi were surging, and a mouthful of blood spurted out wildly - I saw that on the high flagpole, it had been replaced with a brightly colored flag at this time, and it was swaggering, directing the Song army to change formation!

In other words, his previous death-defying rush was a failure!

Anger, unwillingness, fear, regret...... All kinds of emotions instantly filled Pang Wanchun's chest, coupled with the fact that he was already seriously injured, he couldn't support it at all, and after vomiting blood, he was completely unconscious......
