Chapter 387: A Sea of Fire
Three hundred elite Baishan cavalry marched in unison on the steppe, and the main general Timur ran at the front. (. Purple Pavilion)
"General Timur, are we really going to capture Princess Medina?" asked the soldier next to him.
"That's right, on the orders of the King of White Mountain, catch Medina!" he nodded, involuntarily handing the reins to his left hand, and his free right hand grabbed the handle of the scimitar hanging from the saddle, with which he had killed the old patriarch's wife, that is, Martina's mother, the other day.
From that moment on, he had a blood feud with the old patriarch's family, as a ruthless person, he knew how much hidden danger would be left if the grass was cut and not eradicated, so anyone who was related to the old patriarch by blood must die.
So he advocated that he kill Martina at that time, but Gu Lilen felt that it was useful to keep her, at least to make those who did not support him have scruples, and he planned to kill her again after he sat firmly in the position of patriarch.
When Medina fled, Timur was the first to ask for a pursuit, but Gullen gave the opportunity to Tushenge, who had just thrown himself in, as a test of his loyalty.
However, Tushenge was defeated and killed, and Medina managed to escape into the border city.
So he wouldn't give up this opportunity, and before leaving, he secretly swore that he must catch Martina, and even thought about what kind of excuse to use to slash her, instead of bringing her back alive, and then giving her a chance to escape and take revenge in the future.
I believe that with my loyalty to Gu Lilen for many years, even if I kill her, I should not be punished.
Soon, they came to Guozigou.
At a glance, Timur saw the tent set up on the high ground not far away, and the shadow that was busy next to the tent.
He hadn't seen Medina's true face, but it didn't affect his correct judgment, he pulled out the scimitar that he couldn't bear to see blood, and shouted: "Sons, the people we want to arrest are in front, rush!"
"Rush!"
Three hundred men rushed at the same time to the tent, all with their scimitars in their hands.
Three hundred sharp scimitars, reflecting a terrifying cold light in the sun, Medina was startled, and was about to shout, Xiao Chen rode from the opposite side.
While holding on to the reins to slow down the horse, he stretched out his hand and said, "Come up, I'll take you away." ”
"Is this the guest you are talking about, obviously the cavalry of the Baishan Clan. The princess grabbed his hand and leaped up with agility.
The little marquis smoothly dragged her onto the horse, and said with a smile while urging the horse forward: "Whether it is friend or foe, since you are here to visit us, you can be regarded as a guest." ”
"What did you just do, and why didn't we leave early, knowing that an enemy was coming?" asked the princess again.
He continued to sell Guanzi: "You'll know in a while, by the way, the person who led the team looks fierce, do you know him?"
Medina glanced back, and immediately clenched her silver teeth: "Yes, his name is Timur, and he is a loyal lackey of my uncle Gulilen, and my mother was killed by him." ”
Xiao Hou Ye put away his smile: "Yes, then today is his death, I will let you kill him with your own hands to avenge your mother." ”
"Good!" Medina nodded heavily.
The little marquis's crotch and lower steed are rare horses, raising the four hooves of the bowl and running forward quickly with the two of them.
Timur shouted from behind: "Sons, his horse is carrying two people, he can't hold on for long, let's speed up and catch up, who can cut off the head of that big Chu man, the king of Baishan will be rewarded!"
As soon as the cavalrymen heard of the reward, they whipped their horses with whips, and their speed increased a lot.
Sure enough, after three minutes, Xiao Chen's horse had a significant decrease in speed, and Medina felt this, and said in an anxious tone: "Brother Chen, it's not a way to go on like this, we will be caught up by the enemy." It's me who they're going to catch, so put me down and ride your own horse. ”
The little marquis shook his head solemnly, and said with a straight face: "Don't worry, I will never leave you behind." As I said just now, I will give you the opportunity to take revenge with your own hands, and it will definitely come true. ”
"But there are hundreds of them. "Martina is still worried.
"Haha, don't say it's hundreds, even a few thousand people are not my opponents. He smiled and said, "Nana, have you forgotten that I am a god." ”
Medina's eyes suddenly appeared confused, and the picture of his defeat of Tu Xiange last time flashed in her mind, yes, he was a god descending from the earth, how could he be defeated.
The distance between the two sides became cheaper and cheaper, and when they reached one hundred and fifty meters, Timur was the first to start firing arrows, and the others followed suit.
Jingling...... Jingling......
The four leaf martial spirits floated behind the master's back, knocking feathered arrows to the ground.
The distance was further reduced, and within a hundred meters, at this speed, at most, with one more cup of tea, the enemy would be able to catch up.
"Rush, whoever catches the princess Medina will also be rewarded!" Timur, adhering to the view that there is a brave man under the reward, put away the gong arrow, and began to wield the scimitar again.
The subordinates were excited, regardless of whether the war horse could withstand the faster speed, and kept flicking the whip.
90 meters, 80 meters......
Suddenly, the fire-attribute leaf martial soul shot a flying needle towards a bush of grass, and the silver flying needle drew a ray of light, and shot into the obviously turned soil with a whoosh.
Call...... Rumble......
The flames rushed out of the ground and instantly rose to a height of more than ten meters, and a line of fire moved rapidly towards both sides.
Timur and the soldiers were startled and quickly slowed down, but nevertheless rushed into the fire, and in front of them, several more lines of fire began to rise. Directly ahead, there was already a sea of fire.
"Ah......h
Puff ......
The frightened horse threw his master to the ground, and before he could stand up, he was trampled to the bones by several horses' hooves, and screamed and burned to death.
More people fell from their horses, some with their horses.
Screams and wails rang out, Timur's eyebrows and hair were burned off most of them, and the hair of his war horse was also scorched a lot, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Don't mess around, turn around and go back, there is no fire behind, listen to my orders!"
In this case, no one can be calm and composed, everyone rushes to run back, and more people fall off their horses under the collision with each other, and they are either turned into pulp or burned to death.
Timur's heart was bleeding, and among the three hundred, more than half of them were his most relied on personal soldiers, and the rest were also the elite of the Baishan clan, and it was a pity to lose them.
Finally rushed out of the fire, he has become a real bald scoop, there is not a single hair left on his head, and then look at his beloved war horse, it is even more burned and does not look good, it is estimated that it will be difficult to heal, it is considered to be wasted.
After counting the number of people, he wanted to cry without tears, and there were less than 100 of the 300 people left, and all of them were injured.
"General, what should I do?" asked the soldier with a sad face.
"What else can I do, it's obvious that the other party is on guard, dig a trap and wait for us to jump in, listen to my orders, and all retreat!" he said through gritted teeth.
Everyone was dejected, and just a few steps had been taken, when a silver light flew from behind and plunged into the earth in front of them.
Rumble......
The flames rose, and the line of fire spread rapidly under their feet, and they were once again in a sea of fire.
The wail sounded a second time.
