One end of the two flying claws grabbed the edge of the waterfront of the main hall of the Zen temple, and the other end was fixed in the woods farther away from the deep pool, and it was these two flying claws that became the channel for Xuan Shaoning and others to rescue in time. When the retreating group faced this situation, Gu Hongxuan couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "You guys went up the mountain from here and then helped in time?" ”

"This is not the time to explain in detail, Commander Gu told us to go down the mountain earlier!" Xuan Shaoning took the lead in hanging upside down on the flying claws, and quickly crawled across the deep pool to the land on the other side, he looked out the way ahead, and then let the rest of the people come over one by one.

Yang Zhong and Yutai Qiu'an's injuries were not light, but their performances were completely different: Yang Zhong gritted his teeth and crawled over the flying claws by himself, although in the process he couldn't help but look at the deep pool below him, but in the end he still reached the other side safely; Tantai Qiu'an was reluctant to climb by himself, so he had to pull others to pull him forward and push half of it to the other side.

It didn't take too much time for a dozen people to pass through the flying claws, and after just a stick of incense, everyone arrived at the other side safely, and everyone looked towards the main hall together, they were all waiting, waiting for Zhang Hanshan and Jiang Xiaoyu to appear.

"Don't waste any more time, if you keep waiting, maybe the two of them didn't wait, but they waited for the enemy." Yutai Qiu'an urged: "It's better for us to go down the mountain early!" As soon as the words fell, he received a look of contempt from others, and he didn't care about it, but after thinking about it, he still had to rely on these people to escape, so he had to soften his tone and analyze from the perspective of others: "You see, whether it is Xia Tang or Xiliang, what they want is General Yang, and now that General Yang has been rescued, they will have no weight to threaten, so that the broken troops will not have to worry about their lives, right?" ”

This time, no one paid attention to him, Xuan Shaoning would never have a good impression of people like Qiu'an in his heart, but he couldn't deny that the purpose of his trip was to rescue Yang Zhong, if it was delayed at this moment, it would definitely be a disadvantage for the overall rescue plan.

"He's right, General Yang, you'd better go down the mountain with us first, right?" Xuan Shaoning used an inquiring tone, and while saying this, he tried not to look at Tantai Qiu'an. However, Yutai Qiu'an had a good impression of Xuan Shaoning, and immediately accosted: "Isn't it? I'm running for my life, but you've all said so. ”

Gu Hongxuan has been supporting Yang Zhong, and he made the final mobilization, "General, only if you are alive, the Guangyuan Army has the hope of making a comeback, the old general is watching you!" ”

This sentence is really too useful, Yang Zhong immediately came back to his senses and looked at Gu Hongxuan and then looked at Xuan Shaoning, Xuan Shaoning seized the opportunity and immediately ran to the front and said: "General, go this way, I know the way down the mountain!" ”

It is said that it is the way down the mountain, but in fact, where is the road, as far as the eye can see, the mountains are full of woods, this hill is not high, but it is not easy to really take a road that no one has ever walked. The side where Xuan Shaoning and the others stood was the side facing away from Yancheng, and once they descended the mountain, they had to pass through a denser jungle before they could reach the official road.

Xuan Shaoning stood on the top of the mountain and whistled three times towards the bottom of the mountain, and soon received three responses with the same whistle, and then he said with confidence: "General Yang, there are people under the mountain to answer, let's go down the mountain!" ”

The group headed towards the foot of the mountain, although from time to time along the way they couldn't control their bodies because the speed of the dive was too fast, but after all, these people were all from military backgrounds, and it was barely possible to stabilize their bodies and control the speed of the descent at the same time. Whether it was difficult or lucky, at least everyone slid safely to the bottom of the mountain and met the people who had been answering at the bottom of the mountain.

"The last general, Gong Zhengyuan, see General Yang! General, didn't Shaoning go down the mountain with you? ”

was asked by Shi Gong Zhengyuan, and everyone found out that Xuan Shaoning was not by their side, so there was only one possibility - he stayed on the mountain.

Xuan Shaoning watched everyone enter the woods and turned around and climbed across the deep pool and returned to the main hall, he couldn't rest assured that Zhang Hanshan had to come back to investigate the situation of the battle. When Xuan Shaoning returned to the courtyard of the Zen Temple, this place was already empty, but fortunately, Zhuo Lingyi and Nangong Che had already retreated, otherwise it would be difficult for him to fight against these two people joining forces.

After a while, Xuan Shaoning heard a voice from outside the temple, and he hurriedly ran out and saw a part of the soldiers of Tenglongwei escorting the two towards the temple, and the people in their circle were Zhang Hanshan and Jiang Xiaoyu.

"Commander!" Xuan Shaoning ran to Zhang Hanshan's side and immediately saw Jiang Xiaoyu, who was seriously injured, and his mind remained clear, but his lips were no longer bloody. The arrow on his chest was exactly half left in his chest and half out of his back, not only Jiang Xiaoyu himself, but even Zhang Hanshan was half of his body bloodstained.

"Hurry up and escort Commander Jiang down the mountain!" Zhang Hanshan turned his head and shouted to the soldiers of Tenglongwei: "You are automatically divided into two parts, one person escorts your commander down the mountain, and some people stay behind to break with me, you decide for yourself!" ”

Zhang Hanshan didn't care about Xuan Shaoning's request at all, decisively grabbed the shovel and rushed to the mountain intersection, and turned around and shouted at Xuan Shaoning without running a few steps: "Especially you!" If you don't obey my orders again, you will be dealt with by military law when I go back! ”

Xuan Shaoning forcibly escorted Jiang Xiaoyu down the mountain, although he was extremely worried about Zhang Hanshan in his heart, from Jiang Xiaoyu's wound, it could be seen that the archery shooter was quite capable, and there was no one in the Jingyi Army who could match this person in terms of archery skills.

Zhang Hanshan returned to the top of the mountain and looked down, the Xiliang army was chasing and killing Tenglongwei, but from the perspective of the combat effectiveness of the Xiliang army, it seemed that it was not enough to wipe out the entire Tenglongwei, and the Xiliang army was still only near the foot of the mountain and there was no obvious trend of going up the mountain. Why do you talk about hunting and killing? Zhang Hanshan couldn't manage so much, and when he turned around, he found that there were so many soldiers behind him.

"Good!" Zhang Hanshan couldn't help muttering: "Jiang Xiaoyu is good at leading the troops, and he is still very useful at the critical moment!" ”

Under the command of Zhang Hanshan, these Tenglongwei, who had chosen to stay and fight, scattered along the mountain pass, and then threw obstacles down the mountain by any method they could think of; Zhang Hanshan ordered people to mingjin on the one hand, and on the other hand, he personally ran down the mountain to pick up the remaining Tenglongwei, these are all the troops that Daliang has worked hard to cultivate, but they can't all be lost on this low hill.

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Hanshan could feel the battle of the Xiliang army even more, and they really didn't look like they wanted to kill Tenglongwei, but more like driving them away, driving them to the top of the mountain. It was here that Zhang Hanshan saw the man riding on the back of a white horse outside through the heavy woods, and coincidentally, the man's eyes also penetrated the woods and intersected with Zhang Hanshan.

This time, the performance of the two was also completely different: Zhang Hanshan's whole face was white, he couldn't believe that his eyes seemed to be excited and couldn't help himself, the hand holding the shovel creaked, and his eyes were full of murderous intent; The man on the back of the white horse was calm and detached, and he also brought a little smile at this time, especially after seeing Zhang Hanshan, the smile became more and more intense, like a pair of old friends who felt like they had seen each other again after many years.

Zhang Hanshan angrily threw off the shovel and cut the throats of the three Xiliang soldiers, and when the blood stained a small piece of wood red, he finally threw the most vicious look at the person outside, and at the same time raised the shovel high to his chest and pointed at the man, and then turned around and escorted the soldiers of the Tenglong Guard to run towards the top of the mountain.

The smile in the eyes of the man riding on the back of the white horse outside the woods never disappeared, and he watched Zhang Hanshan run away with the people, but instead of being in a hurry at all, he took the initiative to order the whole army to stop the pursuit.

"Lord Wang, there are still a few alive mouths here!"

The man on the back of the white horse withdrew his eyes this time and looked at the several Tenglong Guards who were captured by his subordinates, although they were covered in blood or wounds, but at a glance, they knew that they were not worried about their lives for the time being. They did not escape with the large army at the last moment and became prisoners of the enemy, and they had expected the fate, and all they wanted at this time was a happy death.

"They're all young guys, not bad." The man on the back of the white horse looked at these captives, and the smile in his eyes became stronger, "This time it is not in vain, bring them all back." ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

When the Western Liang Army was about to make a move, one of the Teng Long Wei tried to take the opportunity to seize the saber of a Western Liang Army, he didn't intend to continue to fight the enemy, what he wanted to do was kill himself, no matter what, it was better than being a prisoner who was abused and insulted. At the moment when his fingers just touched the handle of the saber, a strong wind blew by his side, and then his body lost its strength and began to fall softly, but instead of falling to the ground, he fell into the warm arms, and he looked up and saw a handsome and clear face, although full of white hair, but this face looked about the same age as himself.

"Good and good want to cut themselves? It's all in my hands, and I can't help you! The white-haired man gently lifted the captive up and handed it over to another Xiliang soldier, instructing: "Take care of it, and there must be no mistakes." ”

"What exactly do you want to do? Who are you? The captive finally asked the last two questions of his life. The white-haired man just took a step and then turned around and showed a harmless smile, and patiently explained: "Actually, you don't have to be so anxious, I never let you die blindly, and I will make it clear when I use you, but since you asked, then I will tell you, I am one of the nine kings of Xiliang, the King of Zhelan." ”
