Chapter 116: Exposed

Kong Youde watched from a distance as the suspension bridge at the south gate of the city was lowered, and the city gate slowly opened from the inside, so a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and the rebel generals who gathered outside the city with him also showed a strange smile, which was quite a bit of a treacherous trick and a villain.

Seeing that Zhu Wannian slowly walked out of the city gate with more than a dozen personal soldiers and began to walk towards them, Kong Youde pretended to be very obedient and knelt on the ground, and the rebels behind him also knelt down one after another, as if they were about to surrender.

Xie Lian in the city couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that this time it was not good that Kong Youde really wanted to surrender, if Kong Youde really surrendered this time, then this Denglai rebellion would finally see the dawn of the end, so he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Seeing that Zhu Wannian was getting closer and closer to the rebels with more than a dozen personal soldiers, the sneer on Kong Youde's face with his head down was getting deeper and deeper.

But at this moment, in the distance behind the rebels, suddenly there was a dense sound of trumpets, followed by a commotion, and after a while, he rode several fast horses and rushed to the front of the formation, and the rebels on horseback shouted loudly: "Great commander! Big things are wrong! An officer cavalry suddenly appeared a few miles south of Laizhou, broke through Li Qianzong's interception in one fell swoop, and rushed towards the big array! Behind them, there is also an officer army infantry army, which is rapidly rushing towards this side, and this road of officers and soldiers seems to be officers and soldiers from Fujian! Please make a quick decision! ”

Kong Youde, who was about to succeed in his treacherous plan, was first shocked by the news, and then there was a burst of anger, and the rebel generals behind him also immediately became commotion, many people stood up and began to shout and curse to call people to lead horses and copy guys, and the rebel generals showed their weapons one after another.

After Zhu Wannian left the city, he already didn't have much hope, and his heart was full of generosity and righteousness, but he didn't go fast after leaving the city, as if he was going to the execution ground, and his heart was very heavy.

The pro-soldiers who followed him out also looked nervous, but they all had their own intentions to die, they were Zhu Wannian's pro-soldiers, and if the rebels were deceitful, Zhu Wannian would definitely not be protected, and they would definitely not be able to survive as pro-soldiers, but since the matter had come to this, they had no choice but to follow Zhu Wannian out, and they were all ready, once the rebels were deceitful, even if they were desperate, they would have to protect Zhu Wannian and flee back to the city gate, if it didn't work, they would accompany Zhu Wannian to die here and pull it down.

But just when they were still hundreds of steps away from the rebels' array, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound of cannons in the distance behind the rebels, and there were faint sounds of shouting and killing, and the rebels suddenly became commotion, so Zhu Wannian immediately reined in the reins of the horse, and the soldiers immediately protected Zhu Wannian, stopped, and looked into the distance.

The rebels were in more and more turmoil at this time, and the rebels who were kneeling suddenly stood up and brought their horses, and the cavalry began to turn over their horses, showing their swords and guns, and suddenly the murderous spirit of the rebels rose into the sky.

"My lord! The rebels are deceitful, they are deceitful, and your lordship is leaving! The pro-soldier immediately began to shout at Zhu Wannian nervously.

Zhu Wannian was also very nervous at this time, he had already guessed that Kong Youde should have surrendered this time, but he had to come, now he didn't know what was going on behind the rebels, but judging from the reaction of the rebels, the rebels under Kong Youde did not intend to surrender, with the fluctuation of the rebel array, he even saw from a distance that the rebels seemed to be hiding a few cannons, but they had been blocked by the rebels just now, and they couldn't see clearly in the city.

In that case, there was no reason for him to go to the rebels' front again, so he shouted, "Retreat! Retreat to the gates! ”

When more than a dozen pro-soldiers heard the order, they immediately protected Zhu Wannian, and then turned their horses and ran towards the city gate.

Kong Youde saw that Zhu Wannian, a cooked duck, was about to fly, and he was angry, and scolded Yu Xiaotian in his heart, if he didn't come sooner or later, but today, he led the troops to kill him, which completely ruined his good deeds, otherwise if he caught Zhu Wannian, he could coerce the defenders in the city to open the door and surrender, but now that he was so stirred up by Yu Xiaotian, Zhu Wannian saw that he was about to run away.

So he couldn't continue to pretend any longer, so he stood up, tore off the thorns on his back in the north, and shouted: "Come on, go and catch the official, don't let him escape back to the city!" ”

One or two hundred rebel elite horsemen, who had already made preparations for the move, immediately shouted loudly when they heard the order, urged the war horses under their crotches, and began to rush out of the big formation, swooping towards Zhu Wannian and his party.

A large group of rebel cavalry, revealing a hideous face, frantically urged the horses that sat down, and rushed directly to Zhu Wannian and his party outside the city, and Zhu Wannian, under the escort of more than a dozen personal soldiers, also desperately beat his horses and fled in the direction of the city gate.

And those rebels, at this time, also tore off their camouflage, began to launch cannons, launched various oars, raised their shields, and made a posture to take advantage of the situation to attack the city.

Xie Lian, the governor of Denglai in the city, and Yang Yufan, the chief soldier of Denglai, saw this situation, and their hearts suddenly tightened, even if they were stupid people, they also saw that this rebel surrender was a treacherous plan, and it was simply a fraudulent surrender, if it weren't for the fact that they suddenly didn't know what was going on behind their backs, then Zhu Wan's surrender to the rebels today would definitely fall into the hands of the rebels.

Fortunately, Zhu Wannian had the opportunity to turn around and flee back to the city gate, otherwise, if he walked forward for a while, Zhu Wannian might not have a chance to escape back.

But the current situation is not optimistic, although Zhu Wannian is fleeing back to the city gate under the escort of his own soldiers, but there are one or two hundred rebel cavalry behind him, chasing closely, and the rebels' war horses are very fast, and they are rapidly closing the distance with Zhu Wannian.

Xie Lian seemed a little flustered at this time, and shouted vigilantly, but Yang Yufan was still quite calm, and immediately ordered the gunners to prepare, the archers to prepare, and the firecrackers to prepare, and when Zhu Wannian and his party approached the city gate, they immediately fired artillery to stop the rebel cavalry, and ordered the archers and firecrackers to release arrows and guns, shoot the rebels who pursued Zhu Wannian, and rescue Zhu Wannian back to the city.

In addition, Yang Yufan ordered to immediately put down the drawbridge again, open the city gate, and order the small number of cavalry gathered in the city gate to all get on their horses and rush out of the city gate, take Zhu Wannian back to the city, and block the rebel cavalry to prevent the rebel cavalry from taking advantage of the situation to seize the gate.

With Yang Yufan's order, the defenders of the city immediately began to get busy, groups of archers rushed to the battlement, put the arrows on the bowstring, ready to release the arrows at any time, the gunners also quickly adjusted the artillery, aimed at the direction of the rebels outside the city gate, shouting loudly to estimate the distance of the rebel cavalry.

In the past two months, the rebels have repeatedly attacked the city, and they have also created a lot of opportunities for actual combat training, so that their artillery level has been greatly improved.

Zhu Wannian looked a bit wolf at this time, urging the war horse to sit down, desperately under the protection of his own soldiers, and fled back to the city gate.

When he came out, he was determined to die, but because of the sudden change, the rebels exposed their thoughts in advance, which gave him the opportunity to escape back to Laizhou City, if he didn't die, who would want to die? What's more, he has finally managed to get into the position of the prefect now, and he doesn't want to die so lightly.

More than a dozen pro-soldiers were also crazy at this time, desperately urging the war horses to protect Zhu Wannian to escape, but the rebel cavalry were all elite cavalry, and the war horses were also very good, and the speed was very fast after starting, and they had already chased them to a distance of 100 steps away, if they couldn't escape to the city gate, then the dozen or so of them, in the face of so many rebel elite cavalry, would not be able to keep Zhu Wannian at all, so these pro-soldiers were also desperate, and they used their strength to eat milk and ran towards the city gate.

The war horse of a pro-soldier suddenly lost its front hoof, and with a roar it neighed and fell to the ground, throwing the pro-soldier on his back far away, but at this moment everyone was desperately running away, and it was too late to save him.

The pro-soldier was lucky, he was not killed on the spot, but he was beaten to death, and after being dizzy for a while, he slowly swayed and got up, but his face also became extremely pale, knowing that he was already ironclad today.

Since there is no chance to live, this pro-soldier is simply quite single, and he pulled out his waist knife from his waist with a choked sound, raised his head high and shouted: "Master, go quickly!" The little ones stop them! Eighteen years later, he is a good man again! Kill! ”

After shouting loudly, the soldier immediately turned around and raised his single sword, and turned around like a mad man on foot and rushed towards the oncoming rebel cavalry, and the scene was quite heroic.

The rest of the soldiers also turned their heads and shouted with tears in their eyes: "Brother go first!" Let's go down and find you! ”

The soldier didn't answer again, and rushed towards the rebel cavalry, and in an instant he crashed into the rebel cavalry, and for such a person who was determined to die, he didn't care about anything, but became quite powerful.

(By the way, do any other brothers have monthly passes?) Don't waste it! Hehe! )
