Chapter 18: A Promise

The Jing family came much faster than expected.

In just half an hour, they surrounded the area with hundreds of people.

"That man is in this alley?"

At the entrance of the street, an old man riding on a high horse had uncontrollable anger in his eyes.

A small Jing Ran is nothing, but just a side branch of the Jing family. If there weren't so many lives, then the last unlucky one would have been Jing Ran.

But that's no longer the case. With so many people dead, if the Jing family still bows to others, is it still the number one wealthy family in the Chu State? Where is the face of the head of the family, Jing Che?

Therefore, as the highest person in charge of the Jing family in Yingshang, Jing Zhong hurriedly brought the Changxiu Army of No. 100 West Street to surround this place.

However, looking at the alleyway, more than thirty people, five people in a row, blocked the entrance of the laneway. The cold Changge in his hand, and the fierce and vicious appearance, made those Changxiu soldiers dare not step forward.

"Yu Meng, do you know what you're doing! Dare to go against Jing's family, are you stupid? Don't get out of the way! For the sake of the past, I will ask Lord Jing for mercy. Among these Changxiu troops, a man who also looked like a centurion persuaded with a kind face.

However, Yu Meng sneered and said, "Am I stupid? I won't be stupid if you die! Why, do you want to avenge the city gate? Then give it a try! ”

"You!"

As if he had been stepped on in the sore spot, the centurion immediately blushed and pointed at Yu Meng, wanting to scold but not daring to scold.

And beside him, there were also two men dressed in centurion costumes. It's just that instead of helping their companion, they are making fun of it.

Looking at Sergeant Changxiu who was smiling and smiling, Jing Zhong, who was sitting on the horse, couldn't help frowning, and shouted at the same time: "What are you stunned about, why don't you hurry up and go in and arrest someone!" ”

"Whoa!"

Chang Xiujun has long ceased to be majestic, and now he is a complete powerful minion. As a minion, you naturally need to have the appearance of a minion.

The master has given an order, and he must step forward.

"Give it to me! Catch the kid inside, Lord Jing will definitely be rewarded! ”

The wealth is moving, and those soldiers of the Changxiu Army stayed in the Changxiu Army for money.

Right now, since they promise a lot of profits, how can they not go crazy? What's more, they have hundreds of people, three times as many as their opponents, and they can still have a reason why they can't be beaten.

The small alleyway can only accommodate seven or eight people side by side, and the ordinary soldiers of the Chu State are all Changge, which is even more difficult to use in such a space.

The group of Changxiu troops in front of them completely looked like a group of bandits, and they rushed up directly with their weapons. It's a mess, and there's no rule at all.

Facing the chaotic opponent, Yu Meng didn't even bother to show a trace of disdain, he just shouted: "Throw!" ”

"Huh!"

In the first three rows, Yu Meng's subordinates, who were originally holding Changge, immediately squatted down.

Before Chang Xiujun, who rushed forward, could react, a two- or three-meter-long Changge with a handle had already pierced through the few people who rushed to the front.

The method of throwing was not new as early as the Taizu period. However, the ideal throwing weapon is the spear.

Changge is too bulky, too close, and not very lethal.

However, at a distance of more than a dozen steps, the effect is similar.

A group of Changxiu soldiers who had no combat experience at all naturally could not have imagined that Yu Meng would use Ge as a spear.

And this wave of throwing also made the already chaotic Changxiu Army even more chaotic.

"Attack!"

There was another shout, and the five Yu Meng's subordinates in the front row holding the door panel, together with the people holding Changge behind them, rushed directly towards Chang Xiujun, who had not yet reacted.

It was only a dozen steps away, and the two conveniences came into contact in an instant.

As for the result, don't even think about it. Changxiu Army, who did not have a trace of order, wanted to escape from the people in front, and the people behind wanted to enter, completely blocking the entire laneway.

"Rubbish! Rubbish! ”

Jing Zhong, who was riding on a horse, looked at a group of rabble Chang Xiujun and couldn't help but scold.

The screams and curses in the mouth of the alleyway were endless. This battle, which is not called a battle at all, is almost without the slightest suspense.

And the more than thirty people who were originally just following behind Yu Meng and training in their spare time seemed to have killed their true bloodiness at this moment, and everyone's eyes were red.

There is advance and no retreat, there is death and no life, as if you are on the battlefield.

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

Looking at the one-sided fight, Xia Huan, who had already left the courtyard at some point, said with great satisfaction: "General Yu, I really didn't disappoint. ”

And Yu Meng also hurriedly bowed down and replied modestly: "Your Highness's false praise, it's just a rabble." ”

"Look at their appearance, how can there be a trace of military demeanor? is also in this market, and it is extremely rare that the general's subordinates can cooperate properly. ”

Now, not hereafter. Even in later generations, it takes a lot of time to promote the simple cooperation of a team. What's more, it's a battle of arms?

It is extremely rare to have such cooperation while facing the pressure of life.

It can be seen that Yu Meng, as a soldier, is not bloody.

In the face of Xia Huan's unstingy praise, Yu Meng did not get carried away, but said: "Your Highness, this place is dangerous, please wait in the courtyard." ”

"No need!" Xia Huan waved his hand and said, "The general and the love pawn are fighting for me Xia Huan, how can Xia Huan have a reason to steal peace?" ”

In this era, Corporal Lixian seems simple, but few people still do it. Therefore, it has always been talked about.

Xia Huan and Yu Meng, one is a noble prince, the other is a pawn that no one cares about, and the gap between the two can be described as a chasm.

Xia Huan's words are not so much about living and dying together, but as a promise.

And this promise is enough to make the thirty or so people who were originally just barely surviving become the legitimate guards of His Royal Highness. This treatment is not necessarily much worse than that of a guard from the authentic court.

Although women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, and men are afraid of getting into the wrong business, they are more afraid of following the wrong person than entering the wrong business.

Yu Meng, who was excited in his heart, almost cried with joy. Thirty brothers, it can be said that after today, they can have a stable life.

"Kill! Kill me! ”

Outside the alleyway, whether it was Jing Zhong or the three centurions, they all looked a little angry.

Under their intimidation and screams, the Changxiu army of more than 100 people finally barely stopped retreating.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief and prepare to attack, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again in the distant streets.

"Kill!"

More than a dozen guards put on shiny armor again. Even the horses were covered with a thin layer of armor.

Under the sun, the silver-red armor is even more shining.
