Chapter 404: It's a Long Road
Xiangfu and others met Wu Jun patrolling along the river.
Although the battle in Yiyuan only lasted for a short meal, the river thieves came and went like the wind, and before the Wu army could react, they hit with one blow, successfully robbed the princess Sun Dahu, and retreated. However, the passionate sound of war drums reminded the Wu army patrolling by the river that they did not know what was happening in Yiyuan, and since there was the sound of war drums, it meant that something must have happened, so they were ready for battle as soon as possible and sent an alarm to the battalion.
When Xiangfu and others rushed ashore, they were waited for by Wu Jun. In the darkness, Wu Jun only saw a figure pressed by the black, and he didn't know what the enemy was or how many people there were, but they heard the strange accents of these barbarians, and knew that they were definitely not their own people, and before they fought, they shot a rain of arrows first.
Xiangfu and the others were caught off guard, and when they heard the arrow breaking through the air, they knew that they had been ambushed, and it was too late to raise their shields, and several strong men with naked bodies were shot by arrows and fell to the ground screaming.
The unexpected appearance of the enemy not only did not deter these barbarians, but also aroused their will to fight. As river pirates, they are ready to fight anytime and anywhere, otherwise they will not be able to survive all these years. After a brief setback, they roughly figured out a direction and launched a ferocious counterattack against the Wu army.
The Wu army patrol also has a wealth of experience in encounters, they fight in formation, sword and shield men, spearmen cooperate with each other, mercilessly cut down the barbarians who rush in front of them, pick and kill, and the archers hide behind the formation, from time to time release cold arrows, shooting these very poorly protected barbarians. The barbarians have a bad habit of fighting and like to shout and shout. This undoubtedly provided Wu Jun with a target.
The two sides fought fiercely, and although the barbarians were brave, they could not break through the interception of the Wu army, and lost more than a dozen people in vain. Seeing this scene, Xiangfu was also a little uneasy, he didn't know how many Wu troops there were, whether they were originally ambushed here, or they were encountered by accident. If it's the former, then they certainly don't have a chance of winning today. But if you withdraw now, those who die in battle will die in vain.
That's when it happened. Wei Ba, Zhao Tong and others arrived.
Wei Ba ordered indiscriminately: "Husband Leader." Don't be in love, retreat at once. ”
"Waiting, they ......"
"It doesn't matter who they are or how many of them there are. Escaping now is the most important thing. Wei Ba said sharply: "We still have a long way to go. One more wounded. It's just one more burden. Hurry up, take away those who can walk, and let them find a place to hide if they can't. Ask for more blessings. ”
Xiangfu has been the leader for many years, and he is also a decisive person, he knows that Wei Ba is right, if he delays any longer, once he is caught up by the Wu army behind, everyone will not be able to escape. He gritted his teeth, stomped his foot, and shouted angrily: "Go!" ”
Although the barbarians were unwilling, they did not dare to disobey the orders of their husbands and quickly retreated. Wei Ba led the martial arts hall and held his shield to block the arrows, and at the same time whispered a few words to Han Zhenying. Han Zhenying nodded and shouted in a sharp voice: "Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows, the princess is here-"
When the Wu army found that the enemy was retreating, they did not dare to pursue it easily, so they could only shoot with bows and arrows. Suddenly I heard a woman's voice, and I heard that the princess had been captured by the enemy, and I couldn't help but be shocked. They all knew that the big tiger princess who married Shu was stationed in Yiyuan today, and since the enemy was from Yiyuan, it was possible that he had really captured the princess. No matter how likely this is, they don't dare to fire another arrow, for fear that they will hit the princess by mistake, and the credit will not be established, but they will cause a big disaster.
Taking advantage of the fact that Wu Jun couldn't make up his mind, the soldiers quietly killed him. Half of them followed Wei Ba to fight in the south and north, and they were no strangers to night battles, and the Wu army did not dare to shoot at will, so they were immediately killed by them and collapsed.
Wei Ba also didn't love to fight, he left with one blow and disappeared into the night.
After a meal, Bu Qi personally led the main force to the south bank, but only saw corpses everywhere. Most of them belonged to Wu Jun, mixed with more than a dozen tattooed barbarians.
Fei Yi separated the crowd, walked over, and said to Bu Qi angrily: "General Bu, what is the matter with you?" How can there be thieves? ”
Bu Qi glared at him, so angry that he had nothing to say. He felt that Fei Yi was pretending, and he must know all this. He lied to him.
"Fei Jun, you really don't understand what's going on?"
Fei Yi glared fearlessly: "This is your general's defense area, you ask me?" I can tell you that our rear general Liu Yan died, and he died on the land of your Wu people, and you are responsible for this. ”
Bu Qi didn't know whether Fei Yi was true or not, and at this moment, he was not in the mood to talk to Fei Yi about any diplomatic rhetoric. "Fei Jun, if you have anything to say, the princess was robbed by thieves, I am going to rescue the princess now, do you come with me, or go back and wait."
"Gong ...... The princess was robbed? Fei Yi opened his mouth and stammered, not believing his ears for a while.
"Yes, it was the daughter of General Fenwei who was also taken away." Bu Qi wanted to cry without tears when he thought of these two people, a clever plan that he thought was foolproof, but he made such a big mess, not only did he not complete the goal he wanted to achieve, but the most important princess was robbed by someone, and her life and death were uncertain. He didn't want anything else now, he just wanted to save Sun Dahu, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to explain to Sun Quan.
Bu Qi was not in the mood to talk to Fei Yi more, so he chased after his subordinates.
Fei Yi stood in place, looking at each other with Zhang Wen, both of whom saw fear and doubt in each other's eyes. The princess was robbed? Isn't the princess on a sandbank, how can she be robbed? Zhang Wen's forehead was dripping with beads of sweat, he knew Sun Quan's temper very well, and he also knew the importance of Sun Dahu in Sun Quan's heart, if Sun Dahu had any accidents, Sun Quan would definitely not spare him.
Fei Yi was also a little flustered. Things also turned out beyond his expectations. He didn't know where these barbarians came from, whether they were arranged by Buqi or came out of nowhere? Will Wei Ba be in danger? He also thought about whether it was possible for Wei Ba to find these people, but this idea was only a flash, and he immediately denied it. Wei Ba had just arrived in Xiling for two days, how could he have the opportunity to contact these river bandits.
"Megumi, this ...... Who is this? ”
Zhang Wen took a closer look at the corpses of those barbarians with the help of torches, and said with a wry smile: "If my guess is right, this should be the Jiang bandits gathered by the rout after the battle." They are the invisible hands of the local garrison, and they are specially used to do some shady things that cannot be seen. ”
Fei Yi's heart moved: "Wu Lingman? ”
Zhang Wen nodded.
Fei Yi was stunned for a while, with a little more bitterness and self-deprecation in his eyes. Seeing that Zhang Wen was depressed, his hand moved, wanting to pat Zhang Wen's shoulder for comfort, but his fingers only moved and retracted. Now that things are out of his control, it's up to him to do the rest.
……
Wei Ba and the others hurried all the way, crushing several patrolling Wu soldiers along the way, and finally entered Sheshan at dawn.
I ran for half the night, and although I was a little tired, no one screamed tired. The barbarians broke through the blockade of the Wu army, and finally could return to their hometown, the excitement was overflowing, seeing the Shu army that "chased" all the way, they smiled and were grateful, although most of what they said could not be understood by Wei Ba and others, but the heartfelt gratitude could be understood without words.
The physical strength of the warriors is extraordinary, and it is a trivial matter for them to travel in the middle of the night. As soon as they were given the order to rest on the spot, they went to do what they had to do, some climbed to the heights to guard, some fetched water and made fires, and some looked for suitable places to lie down and sleep. Wang Shuang took a big stride, inspecting the situation of his subordinates, while talking to himself excitedly, waving his fist from time to time. There were still some red and white things left on his fists, and there were a lot of dried blood clots on his face and beard, and with his big bull's eyes that glowed with excitement, he looked a little more terrifying than those brutes with tattoos. Pan Ziyu, who accompanied Sun Dahu, trembled with fright when he saw him approaching, but Sun Dahu, who was self-harming, could barely hold on and did not show too obvious timidity.
Wei Ba and Xiangfu sat by the fire, looking at the gradually boiling water, chatting without a word. Successfully breaking through the defense line of the Wu army, Xiangfu has a little more respect and trust for Wei Ba, and it is no longer a pure exchange of interests.
"Wei Shizhong, your subordinates are very strong." Xiangfu looked at those warriors and did not hesitate to praise them.
"Your men are also rare warriors." Wei Ba looked at those barbarians and said with a gentle smile: "What is even more rare is that he is loyal and commendable, he has been in Wu for several years, and he has not forgotten my big man." ”
Xiangfu sighed lightly: "Although we have no culture and are called barbarians by the Central Plains, we respect cultured people." When Mr. Ma came to us, he respected us very much, didn't treat us as barbarians, and did a lot of good things for us. Our king respected him, so he personally led the warriors of his clan to help. How good it was to start fighting, with the emperor and even winning the battle, I thought that I would recapture Jingzhou in one fell swoop, and even sweep away the Eastern Wu, who would have wanted to lose in a battle, Mr. Ma and our king were killed in battle, we have a home and can't go back, hiding in Tibet, like a mouse who can't see the light. ”
Xiangfu let out a long breath: "Okay now, we can finally go home." ”
The water was boiling, Han Zhenying held the helmet that had been washed, filled it with a little hot water, and sent it to Wei Ba. Wei Ba took it, but he didn't drink it, and handed it to his husband: "Boss, drink hot water." ”
Xiangfu glanced at Wei Ba, nodded gratefully, took the helmet, took a big sip, and then handed it back to Wei Ba, looking at Wei Ba intently. Wei Ba took it and took a big sip. Seeing that he didn't dislike him, the husband grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth. When Han Zhenying saw it, she couldn't help pouting.
Wei Ba wiped the corners of his mouth and solemnly reminded: "Leader, there is something I want to tell you in advance. It's a good thing to escape, of course. However, we still have thousands of miles to go, and we may encounter the Wu army at any time, or be caught up by them, and if we are not careful, we may die, or even be wiped out, so we can't be careless. ”
Xiangfu smiled: "I know this, I will restrain my subordinates and listen to the command of the servants, there is no other word." (To be continued......)
