Chapter 124: A Fierce Battle
Dark clouds cover the night.
Jiangnan Layi girl, the saint Fang Miaolian wore a short and energetic suit, and her eyes were full of anger.
Around her, there were all Xuanyi guards, and there were not many people in the shadows, but in the faint moonlight, the blades reflected the cold light of the scales, and in the silence, there was a murderous aura.
Li Tianyan, who was following her, said in a loud voice: "Holy Maiden, we have been attacked, they have already been ambushed!" ”
Fang Miaolian only knew at this time that when Yang Lin gave her food, he had already hidden this poisonous plan to lure the snake out of the hole.
The hatred in her heart was monstrous, Fang Miao's face was cold, and she said murderously: "Since we are in a desperate situation, we have to kill them, this batch of grain is a shortage of materials in Jiangnan, and it must be transported to Jiangnan, and we will fight to the outside of the city." ”
Li Tian paused, then stomped his feet and said: "My aunt, we can't save our lives, even if we are broken bones, how can we protect these grains." Even if you transport it out, from Bianliang to Hangzhou, how can you escape the investigation of the government on such a long road. ”
Fang Miaolian's expression was firm, and he said resolutely: "I bought off the officials along the way outside the Bianhe River, plus our merchant ships are secret, this batch of grain is not marked, and our identities are not exposed, as long as we kill them, Yang Lin's dog official can't stop them." ”
Fang Miaolian thought that there were many followers of Manichaeism, and among these people were many grassroots officials and merchants from all over the country, and these people had obvious identities, and if they helped transport grain, the government would not be able to find out. And Fang Miaolian also has reservations about these subordinates, not only the grain in the grain cart, but also the huge wealth she has accumulated in Bianliang over the years.
There are hundreds of ships transporting grain in and out of the Bianhe River every day, and there is no trouble in the south of the Yangtze River, so Fang Miao is sure that Yang Lin doesn't know anything about their plans.
If it weren't for the experience of later generations, Yang Lin really wouldn't have been able to know about Fang La and Manichaeism. It's a pity that he is now clear, and he has even sent Liu Qingshui's people to Jiangnan to investigate.
It is conceivable that this group of Manichaeans could not run away even if they carried everything on the ship.
Li Tianyan was a man in the end, and said loudly: "This matter is absolutely impossible, it is better to burn these grains and not leave them to the dog official." ”
Fang Miaolian just wanted to refute, but her mouth opened and she didn't speak, and sighed helplessly, "It's all burned!" ”
After the food was lit, the flames burst into the sky, and suddenly a loud bang erupted behind the crowd, and many believers choked to death in the smoke.
"Holy Maiden, we have been fooled, except for a few bags of grain, everything else is mixed with gunpowder!"
Fang Miaolian was completely mad, thrust the knife into the ground, and roared angrily at the sky: "Yang Lin! ”
Most of these subordinates are loyal believers, and in history, Fang La's rebellion relied on the Manichaeism, that is, the theory of the two sects and three worlds of Mingjiao, which coerced countless people and believers to participate in the rebellion, and turned the rich Jiangnan into a honeycomb.
With the order of the Holy Maiden, the believers who were not afraid of death were ready to fight bloodily, only to hear someone shouting behind them: "There are also officers and soldiers on the left, we are surrounded!" ”
Lu Taixuan, who was in the distance, had a solemn face, and said in a deep voice: "We fought with this group of people a few times back then, and we lost more than we won, although we took advantage of surrounding them this time, we have to be careful, don't miss the thieves to report back, then our ships in Jiangnan will no longer have a peaceful day." ”
Before he finished speaking, Hua Rong had already taken a bow and shot an arrow, and a burly man who was guarding Fang Miaolian's side was hit by an arrow in his throat, and the sharp arrow pierced through his throat, and the remaining strength was not dissipated, and he took this person back a few steps and fell at the feet of the holy woman.
Song Jiang shouted and shouted: "Good job, Brother Huarong, rush with me, catch this gang of thieves and receive the reward with Shaozai." ”
Li Tianyan grabbed a single knife, stepped forward, and slashed down a small soldier of the Banzai battalion with a roar.
Although Lu Taixuan knew that these people were powerful, he didn't expect that they would fight so hard this time and bring so many dead soldiers.
Fang Miaolian had already decided to give up Bianliang, so almost all the faithful believers in the Northland were here, these people were strong in martial arts and were not afraid of death, and it would be a vicious battle to rush into the crowd.
More than a dozen disciples with strong martial arts protected Fang Miaolian, slashing left and right as if entering a no-man's land, Song Jiang saw that his eyes were bloodshot, and he grabbed a coiling dragon stick and stepped forward, smashing it against Li Tianyan's head.
Li Tianyan shouted hello, his body was short, he avoided the empty stick, and raised his left elbow to put the handle of the knife on Song Jiang's chest, Song Jiang was hit hard, and he was kicked away by Li Tianyan with blood in his mouth, and grabbed the Pu knife between the lightning and flint, which was about to result in the life of this general.
The moment the blade hit the ground, Song Jiang closed his eyes in despair, but he heard Hua Rong's voice ringing in his ears like thunder: "Thief bird, don't hurt my brother's life." ”
In a hurry, Hua Rong jumped up to protect Song Jiang, put his hand on his back and put the knife horizontally, blocking the fatal knife. Li Tianyan sank vigorously this time, and although Hua Rong was blocked by the back of the knife, a deep hole was still drawn in his back.
Taking advantage of this precious time, five or six of Song Jiang's subordinates surrounded him and protected him.
Hua Rong gritted his teeth and screamed in pain: "My mother, if you don't kill you, the eighth thief, I Huarong is a donkey grass." ”
Li Tianyan didn't have the heart to pay attention to this shocking scolding, he didn't dare to break through with Fang Miaolian in love, and shouted: "Rush with me, and those who block me will die!" ”
This guy is like a dragon entering the sea, only a simple knife, slashing left and right in the encirclement and suppression of swords like a forest, and no one can get close.
With Li Tianyan as the pioneer, a group of people protected the saint and fought and retreated, and the casualties were even fewer than those of the Banzai battalion.
The Banzai camp had a mistake in preparing the enemy, and the manpower sent was obviously insufficient, and it was killed to this point by a group of bandits. They are also bloody men who lick blood with knives, and they are fierce in their temperament at the moment, and they are desperately chasing and killing in the vast night.
When they came to the side of the Bianhe River, many believers poured out of the boat and came to meet them.
Fang Miaolian's expression was overjoyed, and the flowers in the distance were coldly arrowed, and it was extremely difficult to guard against in the night, but he shot through a guard, and the exposed arrow was inserted into Fang Miaolian's shoulder. The saint was injured, and because of her usual power, she didn't dare to come forward to pick her up and flee for her life.
The speed of this group is slow, and in such an encounter, a moment of hesitation is enough to kill.
After Li Tianyan boarded the ship, he was overjoyed, and when he looked back, his internal organs were like being struck by lightning.
I saw a group of officers and soldiers surrounding the guards around the saint, and they were slowly approaching.
He was just about to jump off the boat, but a young man at the bow of the boat behind him grabbed his collar, looked back and said in astonishment: "Fang Qifo, you are here too?" ”
The young man's expression was resolute, even in the face of this situation, he did not panic, and said in a condensed voice:
"The law is equal, there is no distinction between superior and inferior, and the saint is also a member of the church, and she cannot hurt the lives of a hundred people for one person." After saying that, he cut the anchor rope with a knife and fled with the remnants of the people.
