Chapter 264: The Guards with the Black Cauldron on Their Backs
The shouting came far away, but obviously the city guards in front of the city gate didn't hear it, because relatively speaking, Yue Shao'an was still relatively close to that person, and they were still some way away from the city gate, let alone the people behind them.
However, listening to the sound and the speed of the horse's hooves hitting the ground, Yue Shaoan judged that there was only one person coming, and his nature was a straight line, so he should not have found them, but, despite this, as long as the person arrived at the city gate before them, it would be difficult to get out of this gate by himself.
Although if he indulged the carriage at this time, he would definitely arouse the suspicion of the other party, and he would definitely be stopped when he left the city, but now he could not close it so much.
If you don't make a move now, then by then, you won't even have a chance to rush once.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, this time the city is not aimed at them, but Yue Shaoan does not dare to bet on this, if he loses the bet, his life will be gone.
No matter how arrogant a gambler is, he will not gamble with his life when the odds of winning are very small. Therefore, at the beginning, Yue Shaoan forced himself to completely believe in that conjecture and returned home.
Because at this time, he could not be suspicious, let alone uncertain, and if his determination was shaken in the slightest, the result would obviously be extremely miserable. He never thought that he had any outstanding skills, and he was extremely smart and had nothing to do with himself, but there were as many problems as hair, the more this was the case, the more he could not hesitate, indecision was a taboo, this point, he knew it deeply, so he did not think too much, since he had decided, the movements of the limbs immediately matched the thoughts, and the whip in his hand struck the horses pulling the cart.
Although he had always believed that horses should be treated as friends, so that good horses could be trained, now was not the time for a woman's kindness, so the whip in his hand was drawn very hard and quickly.
The horse was in pain, and spread its hooves and galloped, and I don't know if I hated the person who beat him in my heart, but the effect was perfect. On the flat road, it shouldn't have been bumpy, however, because of the rapid movement of the carriage, the whole body kept jolting, and occasionally a small pebble could make the body jump high, and then let out a sad cry as if it was about to fall apart, and fell to the ground again.
The guards of the Prince's Mansion galloping behind him, looking at the carriage in front of him were driving normally at first, although it was a little faster than the ordinary car, but there were not too many strange things, he wanted to go around the car, and saw that the car rushed away like crazy. couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then, my heart was suddenly shocked, why did this car rush to run when it heard its own shout, and knew that there was a ghost without asking.
At this moment, even if the car is not the person he wants to stop, he can't let him pass, stop it first. Thinking of this, he chased after the carriage, and the whip in his hand became more diligent. However, the shouting in his mouth slowed down because of this delay.
Yue Shao'an was a character who did not suffer losses, and when he glanced back, he saw that the person was chasing after him, and he had this opportunity, so he had to let the other party carry a mouthful of black fruit and buy himself some time. Therefore, while rushing wildly, he shouted in his mouth: "Stop the person behind him, that is the spy of the Southern Dynasty, after I found out, I want to kill people and kill people......"
Listening to his shouts, the soldiers guarding the city did not understand the inside story, people generally have such a preconceived concept, and when he looked down, the guard brother behind him was embarrassed because he was running too fast, and he was even more angry when he heard that he was slandering himself, and he looked like he was eager to eat the other party. This made the soldiers defending the city believe seventy percent, and they were much lax in their interception of Yue Shao'an, and instead rushed towards the comers.
Seeing that the carriage was about to rush out of the door, and the city guards actually came at him, the guards were furious and scolded sharply: "Blind your dog's eyes, I am the guard in the palace of the four princes, I think that dog dares to stop me." ”
The prestige of the four princes in the army is quite high, and the army seems to be in awe of him, on weekdays, the pro-soldiers under his account are all arrogant, and they don't have a good face for the ordinary soldiers, so many people, even if they are not the pro-soldiers of the four princes, as long as they are close to each other, they also lean themselves over there.
If it is really a pro-soldier, it is easy to say, because, the military orders of the four princes are extremely strict, although they are arrogant, they do not bully people, but those who are not pretending to be yes are much more hateful, under the banner of the four princes, rampant, and the city defenders have the most opportunities to contact this kind of people, so they are also the most angry. Fortunately, not long ago, after hearing about it, the four princes punished them well, which is much less.
But today I saw a person from the four princes, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he shouted and scolded, Yanjing is an important place in the Jin country, and most of these city defenders have been on the battlefield, which can make him so insulting, angry, brandished his gun and hit the horse's leg.
"Whew-" The barrel of the gun with the sound of the wind whipped on the horse's legs, only to hear "Click! With a bang, the barrel of the gun broke, but the war horse was no better, "Poof! The horse stumbled and fell to the ground.
The guards on the horse were thrown out of the way, almost jumping over the heads of the defenders and falling on top of Yue Shao'an's carriage. However, he never fell up, but the whole person fell to the ground, causing a puff of dust, and the fall was not miserable.
There was a disturbance here, but the city guard found out the strangeness, he was not like those soldiers, he could take on the position of guarding the city in such an important place, naturally he was a little troublesome. Looking at the rushing carriage, he waved his hand and ordered, "Stop that carriage." ”
With the words of the city guard, the soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, but it was too late, because the carriage was rushing too fast, and it had already arrived in front of the city gate, even if Yue Shaoan wanted to stop now, it was impossible. The rapid movement drives a huge inertia, which can stop at the slightest word.
The so-called mantis arm blocking the car is not advisable, but how can the human arm block the car, the arms waved by the soldiers did not make the carriage stop, and Yue Shaoan was about to rush out of the city with the car.
At this time, the city guard had no doubts, although Yue Shao'an had shouted that the one behind him was a spy, but if it was his own person, so many people and horses protected him in the near future, he should have stopped, instead of still rushing out of the city, besides, the people chasing had been stopped by his own people, and the carriage had not stopped, there was only one reason that could be explained, that is, the people in the carriage were spies, thinking of this, he raised his hand and shouted: "Let go of the arrows, don't let people run." ”
The soldiers defending the city had obviously practiced many times, and when they heard the order, the archers on the head of the city raised their bows and arrows in unison, and the cold arrows were placed on the battlements of the city wall, pointing directly at the gate outside the city, and as soon as Yue Shao'an's carriage appeared in sight, they released arrows and shot.
The voice of the city guard was very loud, so Yue Shao'an, who was driving the car, listened to the sound in his ears at all, and his heart was suddenly startled, as if he felt the arrow on the city wall, and the huge sense of oppression suddenly rose, only to feel a faint chill in his back, as if the tip of the arrow had arrived.
He knew in his heart that it was so condescending and close to each other, that thin wooden board on the roof of the car could not play a protective role at all, and it was okay to block the wind, if it was to block these special bows for defending the city that were already longer than the average bow and arrow, it was no different from paper, as long as the arrows rained down, he and Lao Niu still had their lives. But the situation is like this, it is beyond his control, and even the fear in his heart is helpless. Just when he was desperate, suddenly, a red horse came in front of him, and the two beautiful figures on the horse were so familiar.
At the same time, Wan Yanxiang's voice also came: "I see which of you dares to release arrows-"
