Chapter 176: Reinforcements are coming

The sky is bright again, although the sun has not yet come out, but the morning glow has appeared, rendering the east sky is gorgeous, the dense fog gradually disappears, only a faint layer is still rippling in the mountains and forests, the grass leaves contain pearls, the birds are singing, and it is a hearty good weather, but at this time Hongqing is without the leisure and elegance of two days ago, sitting on the big stone on the top of the mountain with red eyes, and the eyebrows are tightly locked into a big "Sichuan" word.

Four days, since the siege, it is now the fourth day, the first two days of the battle is very smooth, only at a small price to eliminate more than 1,500 bandits, but from yesterday, as the arrows in the hands of the officers and soldiers are exhausted, the battle is difficult to fight, although relying on the geographical advantage, the officers and soldiers desperately held the position, but the casualties began to increase a lot, especially last night before and after the White Lotus bandits night attack, although the enemy was repulsed, since it also lost more than 30 people, to this day, There were only 285 people left in the whole army, nearly half of them were wounded, and only about 150 people could still persist in the battle, and what made Hongqing even more worried was that the dry rations carried by the whole army had also been exhausted, and it was really difficult to say whether they could hold out until the reinforcements arrived.

If you make a famous hall, even if you climb it, you should climb it, shouldn't it be Li Minxing's side that something went wrong?

Hongqing has not walked this road, but there are people in the army who know the way, Hongqing has already asked clearly, since he knows that there is still a day of mountain road to go to Kaifeng Mansion, but it is just for ordinary people, like Li Minxing and other masters, really want to go all out, at most half a day can rush to Kaifeng Mansion, and then count the time when Rongzhu transferred troops, the reinforcements should also arrive in the evening yesterday, but this is another night, and I haven't seen the shadow of the reinforcements, how can Hongqing not secretly be anxious, He doesn't want to have such a stain as being a prisoner, because there is really no room for mistakes on the way to the heir, if it is just for the third master, then it is fine, the problem is that Hongqing himself also has the idea of rising to the top, and he can't leave the slightest handle to be attacked.

"Little prince, you can have some breakfast."

Just as Hongqing was frowning and pondering, a sound of footsteps sounded, but he saw Geng Sanbiao holding two pieces of dry food and a kettle in his hand and carefully approached behind Hongqing, and said in a low voice.

"No need, leave it to the soldiers."

Hearing the sound, Hongqing slowly turned around, glanced at the dry food in Geng Sanbiao's hand, and declined indifferently.

"But ......, little prince, you haven't eaten for a day, and you will ...... in the end."

The dry food was gone at noon yesterday, but Hongqing didn't use it for breakfast yesterday, he hadn't eaten for a day or two nights, he only drank some water, and the whole person was so haggard that his eye sockets were deep, so how could Geng Sanbiao see it.

"It's okay, Ben Beizi doesn't fight, he eats so much, go and send it to the wounded."

Hongqing is not an iron-beaten person, he is so hungry that his chest is against his back at this time, if the dry food is sufficient, he would like to eat a big meal, but now there are only two small pieces, and it is not a matter of eating it, but it is better to use it to boost morale, in view of this, Hongqing commanded in an unquestionable tone.

"This ......, alas, the little prince, this is the fourth day, if the reinforcements are not coming, please let the last general lead the troops to cover you to break out of the encirclement, even if you fight for the life of the last general, you must also keep the safety of the little prince!"

As soon as he heard Hongqing say so resolutely, Geng Sanbiao knew that he persuaded Hongqing not to move, his eyes couldn't help but turn red, he gritted his teeth, and whispered.

"Well, this is Ben Beizi's letter, it's just that the time is not right now, blindly breaking through will only lead to self-death, even if you want to do this risky strategy, you have to put the day on the past first, go, today's battle may be the most critical moment, Ben Beizi can't go into battle in person, everything depends on you."

Although Hongqing doesn't know much about the military, he still has basic military knowledge, and he knows that although Geng Sanbiao's words are sincere, there is definitely a possibility of realizing it, if he really wants to forcibly break through, just at the moment, how can he kill the White Lotus bandits, the only hope can only be pinned on the arrival of reinforcements, but the reason is broken, it will only affect his own morale, Hongqing is reluctant to say it clearly, so he just bowed his hand with a solemn expression.

"Wow!"

Hearing Hongqing say this, Geng Sanbiao didn't dare to say anything more. , bowed respectfully, turned around, and went to arrange the relevant deployment without mentioning.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

At three o'clock, the drums in the White Lotus Sect camp at the foot of the mountain suddenly sounded, and a team of White Lotus Sect bandits marched out of the gate again, and the action was quite fast, but the spirit was obviously much worse than a few days ago, which is not surprising, just such a small mountain, more than 10,000 people and horses were stunned and couldn't beat it, but they left more than 2,000 corpses on the hillside, not to mention the rabble like the White Lotus Sect, even if the elite division arrived in such a field, there would be no spirit at all.

"Sons, the success of the establishment is today, the Qing Demon is no longer able to fight, follow me to kill the mountain, all the Qing Demons, Chang my God Cult, this battle has advanced and no retreat, the team obeys the order: since myself, there are those who dare to take half a step back, all of them are killed, sons, follow me, rush!"

At six o'clock, the White Lotus Sect bandits, who had finally barely formed their team, gathered at the foot of the mountain, and the shirtless Lu Dingsheng stood in front of the queue with a fierce look, waving the big knife in his hand, and made a big speech, and then screamed strangely, and took the lead in rushing towards the hillside.

"There is no advance or retreat, there is no advance and no retreat!"

I don't know if I was moved by Lu Dingsheng's arrogance, or shocked by the bright sword light of the supervision team, the more than 1,000 White Lotus Sect bandits who were lined up in the front all shouted slogans, and followed Lu Dingsheng towards the hillside without hesitation, and had the courage to take the top of the mountain in one fell swoop.

"Woo, woo, woo......"

Just as the White Lotus Sect bandits had just stepped on the hillside, a terrible horn suddenly erupted, and then countless soldiers and horses rushed out from both sides of the town in the distance, quickly bypassing the town, and rushing towards the White Lotus Sect camp like a meteor.

It's messed up, it's all messed up! Whether it was the White Lotus Sect bandits who had just launched the charge, or the bandits who were lined up in place and waiting for their orders, they were all frightened by the sudden cover of the officers and soldiers, and the originally neat array collapsed, and at this point, no one cared about the Holy Mother and the Holy Son, and they all spread their legs frantically and fled to the place where they thought they were safe.

"It's the prince, the prince is here, the prince is here, brothers, out of the knife, I'll wait for the thief to go!"

Geng Sanbiao was nervously guarding the White Lotus Sect's attack on the mountain, Leng Buding heard the sound of the horn loudly, looked in the direction of the town, and saw the Ming Yellow Dragon Flag waving in the wind, and was overjoyed, so he jumped up, and let out a joyful roar with a big blade in his hand, and planned to lead his troops down the mountain.

"Wait!"

Before Geng San could run wildly, Hongqing had already broken his throat as if he was sinking into water.

"Little prince, you ......"

In the past, when fighting, Hongqing had never interfered, and now he roared coldly, which really made Geng Sanbiao a little confused, but he didn't dare to disobey Hongqing's order, so he stood hesitantly and asked half of his words in confusion.

"General Geng's bravery, Ben Beizi already knows, there is no need to compete with the brothers who came to help, and now the victory is a foregone conclusion, I just sit and watch."

Be careful to make the 10,000-year-old ship, Hongqing doesn't want to have any accidents when such a victory is within reach, if Geng Sanbiao leads his troops to kill the generals, Hongqing will not be left alone, in case the White Lotus Sect bandits will come out from the side of the place, then the fun will really make a big fuss, this kind of risk, Hongqing doesn't want to take it at all, of course, such a careful thought is not easy to say, this is another reason, good life comforted the extremely aggrieved Geng Sanbiao.

"Hey, what the little prince said is, let's eat all the meat, do we have to leave some soup for the brothers next to us, brothers, it's all good to stay, it depends on how the prince shows his majesty."

When Hongqing said this, Geng Sanbiao suddenly realized, but he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, scratched his head in embarrassment, and snorted with a smile, which suddenly made the whole army lean forward and backward with laughter.

The war progressed very fast, there was almost no fierce confrontation, some were just a one-sided massacre, although the number of officers and soldiers who came to help was only 5,000, but both equipment and morale were far above the White Lotus bandits, a good kill down, the White Lotus bandits ambushed corpses all over the field, it was really miserable, it was only less than half an hour before and after, the war had stopped, and the third master who had been killing for a while didn't care about cleaning up the mess, and led a group of generals to gallop to the bottom of the mountain, and dismounted with a flick of the horse, and went to the top of the mountain in a hurry.

"The child knocks on his father!"

Seeing the third master coming in a hurry, Hongqing didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly led Geng Sanbiao and others to rush to the mountainside.

"Hurry up, come, let Amma see, it's dark, and you've lost weight, it's really hard for you this time."

The third master has always doted on Hongqing, the eldest son, this time as soon as he learned the news that Hongqing was besieged, he was really red-eyed, and immediately led the personal guards to rush to the aid overnight, but was blocked by many officials in Henan, and had to wait for the next day to personally lead the officers and soldiers who were mobilized overnight to rush to Baliwan Town, afraid that Hongqing had fallen into the hands of thieves, and now he saw that Hongqing was safe and sound, and the big stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground, and under the agitation of the mood, there were tears in the corners of his eyes.

"So that my father can know that the child can get out of this danger, all thanks to General Geng and others fighting desperately and bloodily, if it were not for the support of a group of soldiers, the child may not exist as soon as possible."

It is certainly worth rejoicing to be rescued, but Hongqing will not forget to make a contribution to Geng Sanbiao and other henchmen, so he hurriedly recommended Geng Sanbiao and others to the third master.

"Yes, they are all loyal and brave soldiers of my court, and this king will personally go to this to ask for merit!"

The third master is a shrewd person, as soon as he saw Hongqing's move, he immediately guessed Hongqing's intentions, and he would not be stingy with such a favor, and a few words of good words said that it would come down, and Geng Sanbiao and other generals were all moved.
