Chapter Seventy-Six: The Fate of the Veteran
"The general is quite secluded here, and the enemy should not be so easy to find."
In a cold cave, Liu Kan and his few remaining guards were curled up and squatted on the ground.
The cold air around them continued to invade, eating away at the body temperature of several people. Several people could only grit their teeth and endure the biting cold. Firing? No way! The appearance of the fire will only make them fall into the hands of the enemy faster.
"Fourth, have those war horses been dealt with? But don't expose it. ”
Since they were hiding, they naturally couldn't still bring the war horses, and several of them hid the war horses in a pile of rubble not far from the cave. The horses chewed and wrapped their hooves in a long time ago, and when the wind passed, they immediately fled for their lives.
"Don't worry, third brother. We are ready, and as soon as this wave of patrols passes, we will act immediately. When the time comes, third brother, you take the general and run quickly. ”
The fourth child looked at it, sat on the side and was silent, like a rock-like Liu Kan, and said to the third child with some determination.
"Why did you save me?"
Liu Kan raised his head and asked a few people in a somewhat distracted manner.
"General, don't move, recover a little more strength, and I'll rush out with Lao Wu and Lao Jiu in a while. The third brother will take you back to Fanyang safely! Don't worry, even if we die, we will definitely let you return to Fanyang! ”
The fourth child immediately stepped forward to help Liu Kan, and at this moment, Liu Kan's left shoulder was already high and swollen, and it was red. Although they had stopped Liu Kan's wound with the hemostatic dispersion they carried with them and bandaged it, after all, there was a lack of medicine, and Liu Kan was also old.
At present, there is already a trend of infection and inflammation, so they are in a hurry to send Liu Kan back to Fanyang.
"I'm dying! Let's go, haven't I already given you all the letters of release? With the letter, go back to Fanyang quickly! My lord won't blame you! ”
These are all materials that can be made, and they are all orphans that Liu Kan brought back from the battlefield and raised by himself. Most of them were the children of the soldiers who died in battle under Liu Kan's command, and Liu Kan found some helpless orphans from them, brought them back to raise them by himself, and practiced them in literature and martial arts, and practiced the art of war.
When these people become adults, Liu Kan will choose excellent people from among them to become his personal guards. And the ones who are slightly worse than the previous guards will be sent to the army by Liu Kan, as a big-headed soldier, or a grassroots officer, and slowly make meritorious contributions to break out of his own world.
It is precisely because of this that if it weren't for Liu Kan, Liu Kan was deeply trusted by Xiao Xiao and Xiao Yu's father and son. In other words, I am afraid that he has already begun to suspect his purpose, which can be said to be a party for personal gain, and anyone will doubt his intentions in this way, including Xiao Xiao, who also had doubts, but was later dispelled by Liu Kan with his actions.
"General! You have the grace of nurturing us, the virtue of recreation, how can we abandon you! Third brother, get ready! ”
The third child nodded, his face showing a deep reluctance and worry. Everyone knows that they are just going to die, and the entire burial mountain is surrounded by groups. If you want Liu Kan to get out of the encirclement, you can only sacrifice yourself as bait and let Liu Kan take the opportunity to escape.
But in this way, the fourth child will be finished, and there is only one way to die!
"General, you just listen to us once. We will definitely let you return to Fanyang safely. ”
The third child grabbed Liu Kan's hand and said with pleading in his eyes.
"You...... You still have a great time, and a bright future, why do you have to accompany me a bad old man to die here! ”
Liu Kan also seemed to know that he couldn't stop them, so he had no choice but to acquiesce.
"Because of this, there is a good companion on Huangquan Road!"
"Who!?"
The third, fourth, fifth, and ninety-fourth people immediately stood up, holding their weapons tightly in their hands, and watched every move outside the cave.
"Old turtle, come out!"
Liu Kan's face also changed greatly, he had already heard who the other party was in his voice, this person was not something that these children could deal with.
"Liu Kan, why are you bothering? Surrender, let's all work together, I can save your life! ”
A middle-aged man who was not tall, but his figure was quite burly, his face was full of meat, but he squinted his eyes, as if he was smiling all the time, wearing a mountain armor with light green accents, and walked to the front of the cave.
"Ahem, ahem...... I knew it was you! Found me so soon and brought your baby with you? ”
Now that it has been exposed, there is no need for Liu Kan to endure it. As soon as his throat relaxed, he immediately coughed, coughing for dozens of breaths before he slowly stopped.
"That's nature."
The visitor patted his chest proudly and said, and a big dog with shiny black hair and as smooth as silk came out from behind the visitor. A pair of green eyes, staring straight at the people in the cave.
"Black Fang, Ah Huang's son, he is better than his father."
He was still very satisfied, stroking the big dog's head. Even if he was petted, the big dog didn't move at all, and still stared at Liu Kan and the others.
"Black Fang? The level of Haifu you choose a name is still so bad! ”
Liu Kan smiled lightly, at this moment, there was not only Haifu outside the cave, but also hundreds of archers, all of whom were aiming at a few people with bows and arrows.
"Liu Kan, I'm not here to rap with you! Fall! Or die! Take your pick! ”
Hai Fu's eyes widened, and it was obvious that Liu Kan's teasing had stabbed him in the sore spot.
"Pick? Choose your uncle! ”
Before Liu Kan could say anything, the fourth child suddenly burst out and rushed directly to Haifu.
As if they had been discussed, the other fifth and ninth immediately rushed to Haifu with the fourth. And the third child carried Liu Kan on his back and followed closely behind the three.
"Wang! Woof!! ”
The big dog Black Fang immediately wanted to pounce on it, but was grabbed by Haifu and grabbed the chain.
"Whoosh......"
The cave is not big, and these archers don't need to deliberately aim, and they don't need to worry about the accuracy of the head at all.
"Brothers, I'm going first!"
The fourth man crossed his hands and stood in front of everyone. One arrow after another pierced the skin, cut the muscles, and broke the bones, and the strong force made the fourth child only take a few steps forward, and he was already in tatters like an abandoned doll.
He couldn't move forward at all, but he couldn't stop at all, behind him, the fifth and ninth were holding him up, moving forward frantically.
"Fourth brother (fourth brother), don't worry, send your father...... After sending the general back to Fanyang, we will accompany you! ”
"Liu Kan, your heart is really ruthless!"
Looking at the few people who were desperate and like crazy, Haifu shook his head and sneered.
"You can stop the bow and arrow, but what about the crossbow?"
Hai Fu waved his hand, the archer was short, and a row of soldiers held a crossbow at a few people is a salvo.
The powerful crossbow arrow pierced the body of the fourth, and the third, fifth, and ninth children were all shot into hedgehogs.
"Will ...... Checkmate. ”
The third child fell to the ground with a weak foot. struggled to stretch out his hand, trying to help Liu Kan up, but couldn't move.
"Hoo ......"
Liu Kan trembled and stood up. The crossbowman behind Haifu was about to shoot, but was stopped by Haifu raising his hand.
"Old Liu, you kill yourself."
Liu Kan pulled out his sword with trembling hands, put it on his neck, and looked up at the entrance of the cave: "Young marshal, I will go with Xiao Shuai first, may God protect the young marshal, and the martial arts will be prosperous!"
"Old Liu, go all the way!"
Haifu slowly closed his eyes, and a touch of blood red appeared in the air.
