Chapter 262: Joining the War

Under the same dark night sky, a fiery dragon was speeding forward. These people holding torches, constantly shining on the road, looking for the traces of rutted footprints, are none other than Lu Zhen and his party.

Lu Jin, who was riding his horse at the front of the team, didn't know that there was a dense net in Hangzhou City that wanted to trap him completely, and now he just wanted to hurry up, faster, so as to save the people in the carriage from the pursuit of the Japanese robbers.

Suddenly, the footsteps of the two scouts who were walking in front of the search for footprints to guide the team suddenly stopped, and the torches deflected, shining on the forest beside the road where the leaves had withered, and at the same time they exclaimed softly. Lu Zhen hurriedly turned his head to look, but saw a person leaning against the thick tree trunk, motionless. When I looked closely, I found that this was a man who fought with the enemy and died under the tree, and there was a steel knife stuck in his lower abdomen, nailing his whole person to the trunk of the tree, so that his body would not fall.

After being stunned for a moment, a soldier rushed over, and after shining a few times on the corpse with a torch, he said with some admiration: "He was stabbed many times, and it looked like he was indeed injured by a knife!" โ€

"Ignore him for now, keep chasing!" Lu Zhen took a breath and gave the order.

The crowd immediately received the order and continued to move forward with caution. And from this time on, the rut marks and human footprints were mixed together, and even there were stains of blood on the ground from time to time, obviously the two sides had been entangled together, and there had been several confrontations.

Seeing this, Lu Baihu's face became more and more difficult to look at. As far as he judged, once an ordinary official was caught up by the Japanese robbers, even if he had guards to protect him, he was afraid that he would die for life. He really wanted to persuade Lu Zhen not to risk catching up again, otherwise let alone saving people, even his own people might get in. But after seeing Lu Jin's somewhat dark and heavy face, he still endured it, because the young general judge in front of him at this time exuded a terrifying killing intent.

As the team continued onward, the two scouts who were at the front of the pack stopped again, and as they raised their hands, they all stopped, and then a clash of weapons was heard in the col around the corner in front of them.

When Lu Zhen heard this movement, his spirit suddenly lifted. The man in the cart had not yet been killed or captured by the pirates, so he immediately turned back and ordered: "Put out all the fires and lean on quietly!" โ€

After a little hesitation, everyone put the torch on the ground and stepped on it, and then drew their knives one by one, and under the leadership of Lu Baihu, cautiously leaned towards the col ahead.

Lu Jin, also under the protection of Lin Lie and the others, dismounted and walked towards the place where the fierce battle was taking place, and as the distance got closer and closer, the sound of the fight there became clearer and clearer.

The sound of the knife wind was mixed with a few curses. Suddenly, a miserable scream sounded, followed by a cry of sorrow: "Old Five ......" Obviously, someone from the government was injured or even killed in battle.

"Up!" Lu Zhen immediately gave the order to attack, and he knew that he could not wait any longer.

After those soldiers were stunned for a moment, they were still under the leadership of Lu Baihu, and ran out of the corner with a shout, and ran straight towards the two groups of people in front of them, and shouted at the same time: "The army has arrived, don't kill on the ground!" โ€

In the col around the corner, two groups of people were fighting together. On one side were four or five men in strong suits, who relied on two carriages to resist the continuous slaughter of more than twenty small and long-bladed Japanese people. Beside them, five men in the same attire had fallen on the ground, and Bobo's blood continued to flow from the bodies of these nine men, splashing everywhere. But even so, the remaining four people still did not have the slightest intention of flinching, and still stuck in front of the car, not letting any of the widows come over.

At this time, one of the Japanese robbers suddenly burst out, and the whole person jumped up more than half a person high like a predatory grasshopper, and the Japanese knife in his hand took advantage of this to leap and slash fiercely at the top of the head of the man in front from top to bottom. Seeing this, this man hurriedly pushed the long knife in his hand up and narrowly blocked this fatal knife.

But his figure shook because of this, and then his body was slashed backwards by this knife, and if it hadn't been for the carriage behind him, I am afraid that someone would have to turn over on his back. But even so, his situation was already very critical, because the Japanese who had just been forced away by him with all his strength had taken the opportunity to break forward again, and seeing the opportunity, the Japanese sword stabbed out like lightning, and it pierced into the shoulder of his right hand holding the knife in one fell swoop.

With so much force, the knife actually stabbed the guard in the shoulder, nailed him to the wall of the carriage, and the knife in his hand immediately fell to the ground. This one has also lost the power to resist.

When the other three guards saw this, their faces changed drastically. After all the fighting, they knew they were in a Jedi. I just didn't expect this ending to come so quickly.

Four people are already the minimum number of people they can take care of the carriage behind them, and now that one person is seriously injured, then the side he is guarding will be completely opened.

Before they could react next, the would-be robbers pounced again, slashing at the guards who were still trying to struggle even though they were badly wounded. In the flash of cold light, the guard screamed, and his entire head was cut off by a sharp sword.

Seeing that another of his brothers had been killed, the eyes of the remaining three guards were completely red. One of them shouted, "Old Five! He didn't care about defending anymore, but picked up the stick in his hand and pounced on it like a mad tiger.

Seeing this, those would-be robbers were not in a hurry to attack, but retreated slightly, trying to lure the other party to pounce.

The previous battles along the way, coupled with the fighting of the trapped beasts after arriving here, made these would-be robbers also feel frightened. The dozen or so guards in front of them were all good fighters, and their defense was very methodical, without any flaws, so that they couldn't touch the carriage over there after fighting for so long, and even paid the price of three companions.

Although there are only three enemies left, if they continue to attack like this, I am afraid that there will be casualties. So seeing that the other party finally took the initiative to rush up because of the tragic death of their brother, they deliberately retreated in order to surround and kill them more easily.

"The third child is back! It's important to protect the old lady and the young lady! But the man with the stick had barely stepped forward, but his two companions had already come to their senses, and immediately issued a warning.

But apparently it was too late, and as soon as he left the carriage, two would-be robbers surrounded him with knives and entangled him at once. At the same time, the other two took the opportunity to seize his original position. made him lose his way back.

Seeing this, the remaining two guards sank even more, and hurriedly turned around: "Old lady, miss, get on the horse!" As he spoke, the knife in his hand flashed, and it slashed at the chariot, separating the horse pulling the chariot from the carriage.

A white-headed old man was supported by a young girl and trembled out of the carriage, and when he saw the situation outside, the old man's face showed a look of unbearability. But instead of talking nonsense like the average person saying that he wants to walk together, he decisively flipped over the horse. And the maiden, after he had mounted her horse, turned back and struggled to climb onto a horse that was taller than her.

Thanks to the fact that the pirates had stepped back a little in order to induce the three guards to take the initiative to attack, otherwise they would not have had time to mount their horses. But that was enough for them to make the move, for at that moment the Wako had pounced on them again. Moreover, after seeing the people in the carriage appear, the would-be robbers became even more excited, shouting, jumping like toads, brandishing long knives and slaughtering them.

Seeing this, the two guards hurriedly stepped forward to meet them, but they obviously couldn't stop so many enemies. At the same time, the third child beside him had already been dismembered by the besieging widows after a miserable scream, and after killing him, the remaining widows turned around and pounced on the last two guards from the side.

The situation has reached the most dangerous juncture, the two guards have fallen into the encirclement of a group of pirates, and it is impossible to protect themselves, let alone protect the old and the young and the two escape. This realization made the faces of the two guards full of self-blame, and the only thing left to do now was to fight desperately with the enemy and kill one more!

At this moment, suddenly there was a shout from behind, followed by the shouting of the Ming officials and soldiers when they captured the bandits: "The army has arrived, don't kill on the ground!" โ€

With these movements, hundreds of centaurs quickly rushed forward, brandishing spears and broadswords and slashing at the backs of the twenty or so widows in front of them.

This sudden change obviously made both sides of the battle stunned. The two guards' already desperate minds suddenly struck, and in the midst of the shouts, the knives in their hands slashed horizontally towards the enemy in front of them, and the momentum was enough to crush and engulf everyone in front of them.

Those would-be robbers were also stunned for a moment, and when they heard the sound of killing behind them, many of them didn't care about continuing to attack the two enemies in front of them, but immediately turned around to meet them. And the first few pirates, when they felt the desperate will of the two guards, were also a little timid, and they were forced to retreat by the knives of the two.

However, the two guards were still very clear-headed, and while the Japanese were retreating, they immediately took the back of their knives and slapped them fiercely on the horse's buttocks, and at the same time shouted: "Old lady, young lady sit tight!" โ€

When the horse had eaten this, Herod neighed, spread his hoof, and began to run.

The two of them, who thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, immediately changed their faces again, because the current situation was not as they thought, and the two horses directly broke through the encirclement of the Japanese pirates with the momentum and went to those officers and soldiers, but they were divided into two endsโ€”the horse carrying the old man had found the right direction, but the horse that the girl was riding turned around sharply under the pain, and ran out of the road on the other side......
