Chapter 243: Wind and Snow
The distance between the two was not too far, so that Zhang Tie quickly took fifty dead soldiers and killed Li Xiuning.
Li Xiuning was taken aback by this, and the personal soldiers around him immediately rushed forward to defend desperately, but Zhang Tie and the others were all completely Li Mi's tasks, and they had put life and death aside, and they all looked like crazy, and they didn't want to kill Li Xiuning.
The enemy who did not want to die was the most difficult to deal with, and Li Xiuning's personal soldiers who hurriedly met the battle soon couldn't resist it, and after Zhang Tie and other dead soldiers paid for most of their lives, they successfully tore open a hole, and then killed Li Xiuning with a hideous face.
After a brief period of panic, Li Xiuning regained his composure at this time, and faced the fierce enemy with no fear on his face. Her best weapon is the long sword, but the long sword is not suitable for fighting on the battlefield, so what she holds in her hand at this time is a silver-white spear.
After Zhang Tie and the other dead soldiers were killed, the few remaining female soldiers around Li Xiuning also screamed and pulled out their weapons to fight, Zhang Tie asked others to deal with the female soldiers, and he and the other two slashed at Li Xiuning.
Li Xiuning calmly faced the enemy with a silver-white spear, but with one enemy and three, and Zhang Tie and the three of them were all deadly fighters, so although Li Xiuning's martial arts were not weak, it was inevitable that he would fall down, and for a while, there was danger.
After several rounds of fighting between the two sides, Zhang Tie roared, leaped off the horse, rolled on the ground, came under Li Xiuning's mount, and cut off the hind legs of Li Xiuning's mount with a knife.
The mount screamed and fell, almost throwing Li Xiuning out, but fortunately she rolled over and stood on the ground.
After losing his mount, the situation facing Li Xiuning became even more critical, and the other two enemies immediately rode past Li Xiuning's side at a gallop, and then slashed diagonally.
Due to the disadvantage of losing her mount, Li Xiuning could only block the slash of one of them with a spear, but the other person's knife slashed through her arm, splashing a lot of blood in an instant.
Li Xiuning leaned over to pick up the weapon, Zhang Tie showed a fierce look on his face, raised his big knife, and slashed at Li Xiuning's head, Li Xiuning couldn't dodge, and couldn't help but close his eyes.
"Shaft, you dare!" An angry shout sounded, and the yellow horse jumped over, handed out the long knife, and with a "clang", Zhang Tie's big knife was taken away.
Li Xiuning, who had escaped death, opened her eyes and saw that Li Yin had already appeared beside her at this time.
"Third sister, get on the horse!" Li Yin said and stretched out his hand in front of Li Xiuning, Li Xiuning didn't think much about it, and held Li Yin's hand tightly with the uninjured hand.
Li Yin lifted her up, and Li Xiuning instantly sat sideways in front of Li Yin.
At this time, Zhang Tie and the other two went to Li Yin together, Li Yin protected Li Xiuning with the arm holding the reins, and then waved his knife to meet the battle, fighting with his horse, although he was one against three, but he did not fall behind at all.
The two sides fought for several rounds, Li Yin looked for an opportunity, cut down the person who injured Li Xiuning with a knife, and then took advantage of the momentum to ride over and kill the man.
At this time, Li Yin's guards had also been killed, and Zhang Tie and others were surrounded, and after a battle, Zhang Tie and others were hacked to death with knives.
Li Yin looked at Li Xiuning in his arms and asked with concern, "Third sister, are you okay?" ”
Li Xiuning smiled at Li Yin, "I'm fine." As soon as she finished saying this, she closed her eyes, and because she had lost too much, she fainted in Li Yin's arms.
"Where's the medic!" Li Yin shouted, asking Su Dingfang and the others to continue to besiege Song Jingang, who was still breathing, while he carried Li Xiuning and rushed to the location where the military doctor was......
In the battle of Jiexiu, Song Jingang was defeated, fled north on horseback, and more than 5,000 people were killed by the Tang army, and Li Mi, who came to sneak attack, finally lost his troops and left, after this battle, Liu Wuzhou's elite troops have been wiped out for the most part, and the control of the situation in Hedong began to fall to the side of the Tang Dynasty.
The cold wind was howling, and this night, snowflakes were falling in the sky.
Li Xiuning was lying in Li Yin's big tent and had not woken up yet, but the military doctor said that she was only in a coma caused by blood loss and exhaustion, and there was no major problem, and she could wake up tomorrow morning at the latest.
"King Jin, you rest first, let's take care of the princess!" Li Xiuning's personal guard female soldier said to Li Yin at this time.
Li Yin shook his head and sat down on the edge of Li Xiuning's bed, "You guys go down, this king will take care of her personally." ”
The female guards looked at each other for a while, and had to retreat.
Li Yin sat there, silently looking at Li Xiuning's face, he hadn't looked at her carefully like this for a long time, Li Yin was in a trance, and seemed to have returned to the winter of the sixth year of the Great Cause......
Li Yin looked at Li Xiuning quietly like this, and after a long time, a sudden sleepiness struck, and he fell asleep on the bed.
When the morning came, the wind and snow outside had stopped, and at this time, Li Xiuning opened his somewhat confused eyes.
When Li Xiuning saw Li Yin asleep on the edge of the bed, a complicated look flashed in his eyes. She got up quietly, put on her armor, and then put on a warm silk for Li Yin.
After doing all this, Li Xiuning slowly walked to the door of the big tent, turned around and glanced at Li Yin again, revealing a reluctant look, but in the end he bit his lip, turned around and strode out of the tent......
A long time after Li Xiuning left, Li Yin slowly woke up, he looked at the silk draped on his body, and then looked at the bed, only to find that Li Xiuning had left.
Li Yin ran out of the camp tent and asked anxiously to the soldiers, "Where is the princess?" ”
The soldier replied: "General, the princess has taken people away in the early morning, she said that she should return to Jingcheng Pass as soon as possible to prevent Dou Jiande, and the princess also asked me to tell the general to take care of myself." ”
After Li Yin heard this, he was stunned, and after a long time, he sighed lightly and returned to the camp.
After the whole army lit a fire and made food, Li Yin continued to lead the army to the north to pursue Song Jingang, and after marching dozens of miles, he came to Zhang Nanbao.
Tang Haozhou's marching commander Fan Botong and Zhang Dezheng occupied the fortress of Zhang Nanbao for self-defense, and had been holding on to Liu Wuzhou, Li Yin took off his helmet and signaled to the fort, and the defenders in the fort cheered and shed tears of joy after seeing it.
Although Liu Wuzhou's army once captured most of the land east of the river, there were still many people like Zhang Nanbao who refused to surrender.
The accompanying soldiers told the defenders of Zhang Nanbao that Li Yin had not eaten at this time, so the defenders offered turbid wine and coarse rice.
