Chapter 35: The Zhao family's grievances and hatreds
Last time, it was said that Zhao Xian was hit by a crossbow arrow and fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Crossbow arrows, unlike bows and arrows, are very easy to use, easy to operate, easy to aim, and easy to hide the figure of the archer. So Zhao Xian was shot without any prevention at all.
Zhao Xian was hit by the huge momentum of the crossbow arrow, and his heart hurt, so he fell off his horse, and he didn't know who was going to do it.
The arrow had pierced through his leather armor and into the flesh.
Zhao Bao hurriedly rescued Zhao Xian, found that there was still a snort, and hurriedly beckoned the guards to protect Zhao Xian.
The rest of Zhao Xian's team didn't know the situation of their boss and thought that the boss had been killed, so they fought separately and became confused.
They thought that the enemy still had a lot of snipers hiding in the shadows, and they didn't know when they would give themselves an arrow. Although soldiers should not be afraid of death, no one wants to die in vain, and they are all used to fighting with the wind before, and they have long forgotten what it is to be afraid of death, so they are all messed up.
Soon, the first soldier wavered, and he turned and fled.
With the first, a second and a third quickly appeared near him, and then, like a plague spreading, finally the whole team collapsed.
Zhao Bao could only lead the guards and defend Zhao Xian's retreat.
But as soon as they left the village, they found the mob coming from three directions.
Seeing that their retreat had been cut off, they had no choice but to flee in a direction where there was no enemy. After all, he and the others have horses, but the mob doesn't have them, as long as they jump out of the encirclement now, they can retreat to Changshan again.
But when they escaped from the encirclement and were about to make a detour back to Changshan, some of their companions in the guard tripped over the horse pit and fell to the ground.
Zhao Bao was surprised: the mob actually knew how to encircle three and lack one, and led themselves and others into the trap. When did those farmer men who couldn't even afford books learn the art of war?
In addition to the fact that the other party has contraband crossbow arrows and knows the art of war, what is even more strange is that their number is much more than what Taishou said, and Zhao Bao estimates that the number of enemies is more than three times that of the report.
Zhao Bao knew that his people were more than lucky this time, and the other party came prepared, but his side didn't know anything about them.
Zhao Bao hurriedly organized a defense, and at the same time arranged two companions to prepare to lead Zhao Xian, who had been in a coma, to break through.
The enemy also came out at this time, and Zhao Bao led his brothers to resist tenaciously.
Zhao Bao is Zhao Xian's cousin, and he has liked to follow his cousin since he was a child, and he is Zhao Xian's little tail.
Zhao Xian has dreamed of becoming a general since he was a child, and Zhao Bao fantasizes about giving his cousin a front, so Zhao Bao is particularly interested in martial arts and the art of war, and he studies very hard.
When he grew up, not only did he develop a strong body, but he didn't have a problem fighting ten by himself, and he also knew a little about using soldiers, so Zhao Xian put him in the position of the head of his own guard.

Now it was precisely because of Zhao Bao's strength that he drew the enemy's attention to his side, and his companions took the opportunity to take Zhao Xian away.
The enemy wanted to chase after him, but the companions who were in charge of taking Zhao Xian away rushed out desperately, and the remaining members of the guard also helped them to crotch the enemy.
In the end, Zhao Xian was taken away.
Zhao Bao led everyone to drag the enemy, wanting to wait for Zhao Xian to go away before organizing the rest of the personnel to evacuate.
But before he could organize the evacuation, the people who were arranged by the enemy on the other side of the village rushed to surround Zhao Bao and the others together with the accomplices in charge of the ambush.
Zhao Bao led his companions to break through several times, but they were all blocked back, and finally died of life and death because of physical exhaustion.
The leader of the enemy hated this fierce man who was dragging him down, and Zhao Bao alone caused dozens of casualties to his side.
Therefore, the leader of the enemy personally cut off Zhao Bao's head from the corpse, and also slashed dozens of times at the head, so that people could not recognize Zhao Bao's original appearance at all.
This is not to solve the hatred, he actually ordered his subordinates to chop Zhao Bao's body into meat sauce.
Zhao Xian was only rescued after 3 days. He was hit by an arrow that day, but luckily the arrow did not reach the heart. There is also Zhao Xian's leather armor of very good quality, there are several layers, so it buffers the power on the arrow, and the arrow does not hurt the internal organs. It's just that I lost a lot of blood, so I fell into a coma.
After Zhao Xian woke up, he received the news of Zhao Bao's death, and even Zhao Bao's corpse could not be recovered, only a broken corpse and a head that I didn't know who it belonged to.
But Zhao Xian was very sure that it was Zhao Bao's. His own life was exchanged for Zhao Bao's own life, as well as his own guard brothers.
The two brothers of the Guards who led him to break through were also seriously wounded, and one failed to return because of excessive blood loss; The other is crippled, never to go to war again, and even later life has become a problem.
Zhao Xian has always taken good care of this brother who participated in saving him, and he did not kick him away because the other party could no longer give him his life.
As for Zhao Bao's orphans, he is even more dedicated to taking care of them.
But at that time, Zhao Feng was forced to drop out of school because his family lost his economic support.
Originally, Zhao Feng and Zhao Yun have been practicing martial arts since they were children, but, first, there is no guidance from their father, and second, Zhao Feng has no time to continue to focus on martial arts, so Zhao Feng's martial arts are only a little better than ordinary children, such as Zhao Ergou.
Zhao Ergou's body shape is about the same as Zhao Feng, and Zhao Feng can easily subdue Ergou in a one-on-one situation.
Because Zhao Yun has a relationship to continue to practice martial arts, at a young age, he has the demeanor of his father. Zhao Tuo easily didn't dare to make a move with Zhao Yun, at most, he was disgusted and disgusted when he saw that Zhao Yun could bear it.
Zhao Xian later found out the name of the culprit who almost killed him, that guy was called Chu Yan, after that battle, he disappeared out of thin air, and he could no longer be found.
And that guy was originally from the scholar clan, but the size of the family is not large, and his reputation is not obvious. The Chu family was implicated in the second disaster of the party, and the family was ruined. Then Chu Yan's whereabouts are also unknown.
Unexpectedly, he secretly planned the riot, and after exterminating Zhao Xian's troops who were arranged to suppress it, he broke it into pieces and hid it. didn't even leave Zhao Xian with a chance for revenge.
Zhao Xian also dismissed Taishou because of that failure, and finally gave everything in his family before he was reinstated as an official.
Since then, Zhao Xian has hated the mob to death, and even the ordinary people have hated it, as long as the other party dares to show resistance, he will mercilessly kill the other party as a mob.
Since then, Zhao Xian has gone through more than a dozen repressive actions, large and small, and exchanged countless heads for the appreciation of Taishou.
