Chapter 44: Night Attack
Seeing that Yuan Jian was so careful, Wen Zhang smiled and said, "Sir, this is the New Year, and it is such a cold night, who will hide inside." ”
Wen Tianxiang glared at Wen Zhang and said, "Wen Zhang, don't be rude, Your Majesty is here, or do everything carefully." ”
Lu Xiufu was born in the army, and he was familiar with the matter of staying overnight, so he commanded the guards to surround the war horses into several circles and wrap three carriages in them.
I saw that everyone was busy in an orderly manner, and I couldn't intervene, anyway, Lu Xiufu, Yuan Jian and others were experts in this area, so I didn't care about them, I ate some dry food with Quan Jiu and went back to the carriage alone, lying on the bed and sleeping in clothes.
I felt good when I rode a horse in the afternoon, but I felt sore all over my body when I lay down, especially the buttocks hurt the most.
After a tiring day, I fell asleep not long after lying down.
I was sleeping in a daze, but I heard a commotion outside, I hurriedly got up, opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, at this time the sky was just hazy and bright, about four or five o'clock in the morning, Xiao Qi saw me get up and hurriedly said: "Official, enemy attack." ”
I fell asleep suddenly, and said in my heart, who is so bold that he dares to sneak attack, I don't know if this is the emperor's presence in person?
At this time, Yuan Jian also came to the carriage and said to me: "Your Majesty, a group of black-clothed masked people suddenly came out of the mountains and forests a moment ago, and they are now fighting with the imperial guards in front of them. ”
"The Man in Black?"
"Exactly, Blue Feather Shen Mo organized the battle in front, and Wen Zhang escorted Lord Wen and Lord Lu."
I stepped out of the carriage and could vaguely see that there was a fight going on at the front.
Armed with small crossbows, these men in black fired a round and immediately discarded them, then drew their scimitars and charged at us.
The men in black formed a formation of arrows, trying to tear through the defenses of the imperial guards. The first few of the arrowheads push forward whenever there is a gap, while the people behind do not care about the situation of those in front of them, and only rush forward. Relying on the advantage of numbers, most of the people in black are two between one, and gradually arch the gap deeper and deeper.
"Your Majesty, these are no ordinary robbers, they are well-trained dead soldiers, and they use Mongolian war swords." Lu Xiufu and others also came to me.
"Ah, it could be the Mongols?" Wen Tianxiang was surprised.
"I can't be wrong about their weapons." After all, Lu Xiufu had fought with the Mongols on the front line, and he knew it very well.
I nodded and said, "Mongols? However, judging by their formation, they should be coming towards me. ”
Yuan Jian said: "Your Majesty, rest assured, although the other party has a large number of people, as long as our personnel adapt to its path, the situation will be slowly reversed." ”
"Your Majesty, go up too." Wen Zhang said eagerly.
Yuan Jian took over and said: "Don't worry, let's take a look first, although our side is on the defensive, it is not disadvantaged, and the target of this group of black-clothed people is indeed the emperor." ”
Sure enough, as Yuan Jian expected, although the other party was getting closer and closer to me, the number of people also began to decrease.
The two of them were like tigers in a flock of sheep, under the wielding of their two swords, there were few enemies with three moves, but the man in black seemed to be not afraid of life and death at all, and he stubbornly pushed forward.
Although the imperial guards also had a lot of casualties, after all, their individual combat ability was stronger than that of the other party, and under the command of Lan Shen and the others, they began to stabilize their positions and gradually formed a one-on-one situation.
Just when I thought the situation was under control, I suddenly heard Yuan Jian shouting, "It's not good, Wenzhang be careful." ”
From the battlering crowd, three black-clothed people suddenly rushed out, these three people were not entangled with the guards at all, and they didn't care about the lives of the other black-clothed people, they lined up and rushed directly towards my location, the speed was so fast that even Lan Yu couldn't stop it, it was obvious that the three of them were very light.
When the three men in black saw that I was dressed in a dragon robe, different from the people around me, they all rushed towards me.
Wen Zhang's reaction was extremely fast, and as Yuan Jian moved, the sword was already in his hand, facing the man in black.
Xiao Qi also pulled out his sword and stood in front of me.
The man in black saw Yuan Jianwenzhang stepping forward to block, suddenly changing the arrangement, the people on both sides raised the scimitar and slashed at Yuan Wen and the two, what a kung fu Yuan Jian, on one side of his body, avoided the scimitar, and hit the man in black with his right palm, the man in black did not dodge, threw away the scimitar, put his hands together, and hugged Yuan Jian tightly. Yuan Jian's right palm slammed into the ground, and even the sound of the other party's bones shattering could be heard, and the man in black laughed, still not letting go.
The person who rushed towards Wen Zhang also did not dodge Wen Zhang's sword, and at the moment of being stabbed, his body only shifted a few inches to the left, avoiding his heart, and stretched out his hands to hug Wen Zhang.
Isn't this the way to play when you say how to go to the dust?
At the moment when Yuan Jian and Wen Zhang were blocked by the two men in black, the man in black in the middle did not stop at all, jumped high, and pounced on me like a big bird.
Yuan Jian's heart sank, and he suddenly felt bad, these two black-clothed people were not very high in martial arts except for their fast body skills, but they cooperated tacitly and had a clear purpose, the two of them gave up their lives to block, and the final blow was completed by the black-clothed man with the highest martial arts among the three.
Yuan Jian didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly used his palms to shake the black-clothed man in front of him a few meters away, and then his figure turned upside down, his pace was raised to the extreme, and he hit the black-clothed man in the middle with a volley in the air, hoping that he could turn around and save himself. As long as the man in black turns around, he can stop him in time, and at this time, he can only surround Wei to save Zhao.
Although Wen Zhang also stabbed the man in black easily, he saw that the remaining man in black had already pounced on me, and in a hurry, he didn't have time to pull out his long sword, his left palm exerted force, he took out the opponent's hands together, jumped up in the air, and pounced on me, but Wen Zhang's experience was not as good as Yuan Jian's, and he was still half a beat slower.
This last man in black, like the other two, also gave up on resisting completely, ignoring Yuan Jian's palm from behind, and rushed towards me in the same direction. Yuan Thorn's palm wind struck the back of the man in black in the air, and the man in black spurted out a mouthful of blood, took advantage of the momentum to cross Xiao Qi, and with all his strength, raised his scimitar, and slashed at me in the air.
From the sudden arrival of the three men in black, to the last scimitar of the man in black slashing at me, it was nothing but lightning and flint.
Wen Tianxiang and Lu Xiufu next to me didn't have time to react, they could only watch the scimitar slash down, even if Wen Lu's brains could react, the speed of his hands and feet was far inferior to that of the man in black.
Even I couldn't react at once, although the martial arts of this man in black were not as good as Yuan Thorn, but they were far superior to me, I could see this, plus this sword volleyed down, it had already sealed all my retreats, unless my shadowless trick was successful, I couldn't escape the attack range of his scimitar anyway.
Is this the end of my crossing?
Maybe I'll be able to travel back again, maybe it's all a dream.
At this moment, I thought of Rhombus again. Without the rhombus, I would have died clean.
I felt a pain in my heart, and I couldn't resist it, so I simply gave up resisting, and my whole body relaxed for a while.
These thoughts instantly crossed my mind, but the scimitar of the man in black was only less than a meter above my head, and the scimitar had begun to penetrate into my body.
I don't know if I'm feeling hopeless or relieved at this point.
