Chapter 324: Burning Bao'en Temple
"No, their target is not the Heavenly King Palace, it's the backyard ......" Aka was taken aback, and was very remorseful for his mistake in judgment.
He thought he was very smart, but he still miscalculated, these Han people are too cunning, and they can still make the right choice in such a situation!
Could it be that the Han Chinese were really smarter than the Mongols?
"Quick, Golmud, stop them......"
"Golmud ......"
Oops, Golmud was sent by him to carry firewood, and now he can only go on his own, and that day he rushed out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall with a silver knife in his hand.
Punch ......
Zhou Wencai suddenly attacked, plus Sai Xiaoyu killed a horse gun in the back, the two teams of men and horses combined into one, regardless of the fierce rush and killing, the encirclement of the wolf guard was rushed out of a gap by him.
Jin Yiwei also knew that this was a fight for life, and life or death depended on this time, so at this time, everyone used their strength to breastfeed.
"My lord, which yard are we going to?"
"The northwest corner, Bao'en Temple I came many years ago, the courtyard in the northwest corner is the residence of the temple miscellaneous servants, there is a well in the courtyard, usually the monks in the temple do not drink well water, mainly the temple fire ......"
"Strange, you don't drink water here?"
"The well water is bitter and alkaline, and if it weren't for the fact that this was originally intended to build a military fort, this well would not have been kept."
"Quick, everyone go in, Wencai, arrange someone to arrange the defense, with this one place, we can take a breath!"
"Send two men up to the corner tower, condescendingly. Help us defend! ”
"Whoa!"
"Count the number of people, how many people do we have left?" Sai Xiaoyu asked.
"My lord, there are forty-one of us in total, and now including the wounded, nineteen, five are lightly wounded, two are seriously wounded, and twelve can fight, including you!"
"That is, just now. Half of the brothers were killed in battle? A cold light flashed in Sai Xiaoyu's eyes.
"Yes. But the enemy died more than we did, at least thirty or forty! ”
"Unexpectedly, they really colluded with Dongchang, and this time they made a move against Lord Meng. Just let me catch up! Sai Xiaoyu smiled bitterly. I calculated the danger. But I didn't expect that what was hidden in this Bao'en Temple was Narichi and others.
After hiding for so long, I took the initiative to jump out.
Just when Sai Xiaoyu led people to highlight the encirclement of Narichi, he entered the corner tower courtyard in the northwest corner of Bao'en Temple. On that day, Chi also led people to surround the small courtyard.
"General!"
"The Han people are too cunning, they want to delay time and wait for reinforcements, but they didn't expect them to be willing to go far, and General Ben underestimated them!" Chi was annoyed that day.
"General, what now, are you still setting fire?"
"Stupid, there is a well in this courtyard, if you set it on fire, it won't pose much threat to them, and the fire is together, doesn't it mean suing others, and we are in Bao'en Temple?" That day Chi scolded.
"But didn't the general plan to set fire to it just now?" Golmud asked puzzled.
"Can that be the same, burn the Heavenly King's Palace, let's leave after setting the fire, there is no need for aftermath, and now, if we set the fire alone, these people will definitely be fine, and our identities will be exposed, don't you understand?"
"Subordinates understood!" Golmud was stunned for a moment, but he understood a little, "Then what now?" ”
"General Ben expects that even if they have reinforcements, they will not arrive soon, at least they should not know about our deposits, otherwise the judge will not only bring forty people, and the nearest village near Bao'en Temple is also seven or eight miles away......"
"General, look!"
There was a sky-high fire above the corner tower, it was obvious that Sai Xiaoyu and they set it on fire, this fire will inevitably attract attention, and it can also point out the direction for reinforcements in the dark.
Although Sai Xiaoyu doesn't know if the reinforcements will come and when they will come, he can't sit still, he still has to do what he has to do, even if there is a glimmer of hope, he can't give up.
"Damn, this will be discovered by the nearby garrison, this Bao'en Temple was originally a military fortress, and there is a beacon tower built on the corner tower!" That day was very angry, he had miscalculated this step, and he was completely in a passive situation.
"General, what should I do?"
"Kill in, kill everyone before their reinforcements arrive, and then evacuate!" Nari Chi commanded.
"Yes!"
There was nothing to do that day, and at this time, there was no other choice but to attack, and he couldn't just retreat.
couldn't kill the judge, and failed to catch Meng Yan, and got the "Desert Dragon Map", this trip to the capital of Daming, he failed to complete the task that was returned to him first, and he also lost his goods, people, and horses when he returned to the desert, and he must not be spared first.
Now he is bent on killing the "judge", so that at least he will have an explanation after he goes back, and the punishment will be lighter!
"My lord, the Warats have attacked, and their strength is several times that of ours, so I'm afraid we won't be able to do it for long?" Zhou Wencai reported.
"How long can you hold on?"
"At most, for an hour, we have too few men, and we lack weapons, if we continue like this, sooner or later we will be attacked by them!"
"We can hold it for as long as we can, we can only pray to God now, the imperial garrison near here can see the signal we sent and arrive in time, otherwise, this time we will really die here."
"My lord, let's escort you out, as long as you live, you can avenge us and kill these dog tartars?"
"No, we still have three points of hope for holding on, once we break through, we are not familiar with the terrain, and it is dark night, they are outnumbered, but the chance of survival is slim!" Sai Xiaoyu vetoed.
"Adult ......"
"I have made up my mind, I will never leave my brother, I escaped privately, but I ......" Sai Xiaoyu remembered his unfinished business, and couldn't help sighing, is this fate?
"Kill, knock the door open for me, open the strong, and rush in at any cost......" The red voice shouted hoarsely that day, and ordered the wolf guards under his command.
"My lord, another brother has died......
Less than a stick of incense. Five Jinyi guards died, and the rest were all injured, and even Sai Xiaoyu himself made a hole in the crossbow arrow of the Wolf Guard, and his steps were not as flexible as before.
Knock Knock......
The log hit the courtyard wall, and the loud sound hit everyone's hearts like a heavy hammer, and once the courtyard wall was knocked down, then this last barrier was gone.
The brocade guards supported each other, walked to the middle of the courtyard, and surrounded Sai Xiaoyu, forming a human wall.
But. Just before the courtyard wall was about to be knocked down. Suddenly, the sound was gone, and there was no movement outside!
Immediately afterward, they saw the sky-high fire, which was the direction of the Daxiong Treasure Hall that they had fought hard just now.
Except for the beeping sound of burning wood. I also faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing!
"Your Excellency. Could it be that our reinforcements have arrived? Zhou Wencai cried with joy.
"Maybe!" Sai Xiaoyu nodded calmly.
The wisdom of that day should not be underestimated. It's just a Bao'en Temple, since they have exposed their hiding, they don't care. It doesn't matter if it burns, they were going to burn the temple.
Now if you set up a game to trick him out, it is not impossible, otherwise how could he suddenly withdraw people when he was about to break through?
What could be more exciting for them than to create the illusion that reinforcements are arriving and luring them all out?
As for setting fire to the temple, it would be better explained, if you don't act in a full set, how can you make people believe it?
"My lord, shall I take someone out to have a look?" Zhou Wencai said excitedly.
"No, just wait here, whether the reinforcements really arrive, or the trick of the day, we don't want to leave here." Sai Xiaoyu stopped.
"Your Excellency is saying that this is the trick of the day?"
"This person can be valued first, he must be extraordinary, he must not be underestimated, he must be careful everywhere!" Sai Xiaoyu said, "If it's really reinforcements, we don't need to rush at this moment!" ”
"Yes, sir!" Zhou Wencai sighed from the bottom of his heart.
After waiting for a while, there was another sound of horses' hooves, this time much more neat than the sound of horses' hooves just now, and there were more people.
A bald monk climbed up from the top of the collapsing wall.
"Dog Tartar ......"
"Donor, poor monk cause!" The monk's face was dark, and he loudly identified himself.
"Master Cause?"
"Donor, you're tired......" The monk jumped off the wall and ran over, clasping his palms together.
"Are you really a monk?"
"Wencai, he is really a reason, we met six years ago, and he was not a guest at that time!" Sai Xiaoyu Road.
"My lord, the monks in this temple are in the same group as that dog Tartar in that day!"
"Donor, the monks are also forced to be helpless, they caught the host and the monks of the whole temple, if they don't do what they say, they will kill the monks of the whole temple, and the monks have no choice but to do what they say!" The cause of the way.
"I'm afraid that after this time, you won't be able to be a monk!" Sai Xiaoyu shook his head slightly and sighed.
"Yes, because he made a big mistake, helped the wicked, killed so many people, and destroyed the Bao'en Temple, he is a big sinner!" Cause nodded.
"Take me to meet the host, we're old friends!" Sai Xiaoyu Road.
"Donor, please come with me!"
"My lord, beware of fraud!" Zhou Wencai stopped.
"Okay, then wait a little longer." Sai Xiaoyu nodded.
"Uncle Sai, Uncle Sai......"
Meng Yan rushed from outside in a battle robe, and was greatly relieved to see that Sai Xiaoyu was safe and sound.
"Master Meng is finally here!"
"The little nephew is a step late, which makes Uncle Sai frightened!" Meng Yan said busily, he came out of the inspection envoy yamen and planned to go home, but after thinking about it, he still felt a little wrong, so he went to Guo Nu's mansion in person.
After asking Guo Nu, he transferred two brigades of Jinyi guards from Beiya, took the warrant to go out of the city signed by Guo Nu himself, and urgently went out of the city, all the way to Bao'en Temple.
Meow!
Xiao Bai rushed out from behind Meng Yan and jumped into Sai Xiaoyu's arms, and seemed to scream for credit.
"Uncle Sai, thanks to Xiaobai, I found you so quickly!" Meng Yan loved this Persian cat.
This cat is simply a sperm, if it weren't for it leading the way, it would have taken some more time to find Sai Xiaoyu and the others.
It's almost dawn, there is no wind tonight, the fire only burned down a Daxiong Treasure Palace, and the other halls suffered little damage, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune. (To be continued......)
