Chapter 1020: Enclave Defense (27)
On the wasteland, several figures rushed towards the north.
Suddenly, the person running at the back stumbled and fell to the ground, and the people in front immediately stopped, turned around and pulled their fallen companions from the ground.
"How?" Wang Ping asked.
"It's fine!" The fallen Flying Army soldier gritted his teeth.
"Can you run?" Wang Ping asked.
"Yes!"
Everyone stopped talking and continued to run forward.
Just a few miles behind them, a troop of cavalry approached in search formation, the sound of horses' hooves faintly audible. To be precise, the pursuers were not cavalrymen, but a group of horse thieves, a group of vicious horse thieves.
Wang Ping's team has been chased by them for two days and one night.
Wang Ping's squad frequently used the terrain, or went up the mountain to make a detour, or set up a suspicious formation, trying to get rid of the horse thieves' pursuit, but there was no shortage of horse thieves who were good at tracking, and they could recover the target several times, and the speed advantage of the cavalry determined that they had the opportunity to make mistakes. During this period, the two sides fought several times, and the Fei Army killed nearly a hundred horse thieves with its excellent combat effectiveness, but the battle always had a price, and there were fewer and fewer Fei Army soldiers who followed Wang Ping.
By this time, there were only four flying soldiers left by Wang Ping's side.
"She should be safe now...... Wang Ping thought to himself.
After discovering that she was targeted by the horse thief team, Wang Ping firmly sent Jia Zhu away, and Jia Zhu did not insist anymore, she understood that continuing to follow the team would only increase the burden on Wang Ping and others, and cause more soldiers to lose their lives. The two Feijun soldiers escorted Jia Zhu to the east into Yizhou, while Wang Ping personally led the other soldiers to the north to divert the pursuers. In that battle, five loyal Flying soldiers were lost, but they succeeded in attracting the attention of the horse thieves and gaining a relatively safe retreat environment for Jia Zhu and the other three.
Even though they were chased by horse thieves and killed, Wang Ping's target was still the north.
There are companions fighting there, and they have to go back and do their part.
Go north!
Wang Ping and the others didn't know what the situation was like in the enclave, but when they left, the enclave was heavily surrounded by the Qiang, and the battle-hardened Fei army knew what that meant. No one would deny the strength of the Bai Yu soldiers and the Eren soldiers, but there were so many enemies that even the Bai Yu and the Eren had to use all their resources to temporarily resist the siege of the plateau Qiang. War is not child's play, the war to defend the enclave, there will inevitably be a lot of bloodshed and killing, there are enemies, there are also their own people, the process will be very cruel, but there is no way, this is war.
Go north!
With a large number of horse thieves sharpening their knives behind them, and countless plateau Qiang at the end of the road ahead, they didn't even know if they would have a chance to approach the enclave alive, and everyone would rather run north like moths to the fire to meet their robes.
Go north!
Unable to shake off the pursuers, they hardly stopped for the past two days and nights, running hard and running.
With no time to rest or to look for food, only to be supported by the few water in the bladder, tormented by hunger and suffering, as if returning to the days when I died on the plateau not long ago. Wang Ping had always been worried that someone would fall down and never get up again, including himself, but fortunately, until this moment, that situation did not happen, and everyone was extremely tenacious until now, and the pace of running to the north has never hesitated.
"I don't seem to be that hungry anymore...... one of the flying soldiers said suddenly.
However, as soon as he said this, he stopped, because he realized how untimely such an emotion was. They hadn't eaten for two days and one night, even if they were lying still, I was afraid that they were already unbearably hungry at this time, but they ran all the way, and occasionally there were a few short but fierce battles, and the physical consumption can be imagined, how could they not feel hungry? The reason why he suddenly felt less hungry was because he had been hungry for too long, and his body had lost the ability to sense hunger, which was not a good thing.
Everyone finally forgot the torture of hunger, and didn't bringing up the old things add to everyone's troubles?
Everyone endured it, but they said "hungry", I'm afraid, I'm afraid it will make everyone even hungrier......
You shouldn't say that......
The Flying Army soldiers were blaming themselves, and the other Flying Army also started talking nonsense.
"Lao Tzu is also more and more energetic!"
"The more you run, the more powerful you become, weird!"
"If you're not hungry, count it as a ball! The wound on Lao Tzu's leg doesn't hurt anymore......"
"Which one is your turtle son Huo (Sichuan dialect, meaning to deceive)?"
"What are you doing!"
"Don't say it, it's true, Lao Tzu doesn't hurt so much!"
……
Listening to the noise of several soldiers, Wang Ping did not speak, but tears blurred his eyes in an instant.
Everyone walks all the way and fights side by side, how can it be possible not to be in pain or hungry?
Yesterday at noon, he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and the injuries on his body kept reminding him that the situation was worrying, but the environment forced him to have no way or time to deal with it, so he could only force himself to forget all this and continue to march in the direction of the enclave. I don't feel a strong negative state now, but those who have a little experience know that hunger and pain are not gone, but that everyone is already hungry and faint.
The flying army is one, Wang Ping knows the truth, and of course the soldiers of the flying army also know.
Their ridicule now is probably because they realize that they are likely not to finish the last journey, and they want to say a few last words to their brothers who share life and death before they fall. Pretending to be lighthearted and teasing, hoping that others will continue to persevere, this may be their last wish. Everyone at the scene should have guessed this intention, and everyone endured their grief and giggled, just like before.
What a warrior!
Wang Ping's heart was like a knife, and his chest swelled with remorse.
He was the one who brought everyone out, when everyone was exhausted and scarred. Although the starting point of Wang Ping's trip was not for himself, all the flying troops followed voluntarily, but watching these robes that had survived a hundred battles fall one by one, how could Wang Ping's heart not hurt?
Perhaps, the next moment, someone fell silently.
Wang Ping wanted to say a few words as well, and the right was to say goodbye to his brothers.
But Wang Ping is a taciturn person, good at speaking with actions, but his mouth is really stupid. He led an army by himself as a young man, and all the members of the Flying Army were older than him, and he had always commanded this army with majesty and fairness, and he didn't know how to laugh with the soldiers of his brothers and uncles. In addition, I was extremely sad in my heart, and I muttered for a long time, but I didn't say a word after all.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded from the flanks and fronts, coming straight to this side.
The color of the king plane changed greatly.
Continuing to the north, it seems that the horse thieves still detected their intentions, and they spread a large net to pursue, but secretly sent people to go around the front and complete the outflanking of Wang Ping's people.
"Up the hill!"
There was no time to be sad, Wang Ping and others ran wildly towards the mountain.
The sound of horses' hooves is closer!
With shouts, the horse thief threw out the noose.
Wang Ping tried his best to dodge, but two warriors were still hit, and they were immediately dragged to the ground by the horse thieves. Wang Ping and the other two flying soldiers did not hesitate to give up the escape, turned around and rushed back, quickly cut the rope to rescue their companions, and continued to run towards the mountain with each other. The whole rescue process did not take more than twenty seconds, but it was enough for the horse thieves to get closer, and a team of horse thieves rushed to the foot of the mountain in advance, blocking the escape path of the flying army.
"Can't go back......"
Wang Ping sighed in his heart, but he did not hesitate at his feet, and rushed towards the horse thief who was in the way.
The reaction of the four Flying Army warriors was exactly the same as that of their main general. In fact, their minds are the same: even if they are splashed with blood for five steps, they must fight a bloody path for their companions!
Someone has to go back to the north!
After a rush, all ten horse thieves who stood in the way fell from their horses, one soldier was killed on the Flying Army's side, and the remaining four also had several wounds on their bodies.
This result was completely unexpected by Wang Ping.
With Feijun's current physical condition, he thought that he could be satisfied with one person, but he didn't expect to annihilate this horse thief team, and only one person was broken. It's normal to play such a record in their heyday, but they haven't eaten or rested for two days and one night, and such a result is too unnatural to look at.
But now is not the time to be stunned, break through the blockade, then keep running!
At this moment, a huge figure suddenly turned around the corner of the mountain wall in front of him.
Wang Ping and the others collectively stopped, and their scalps were numb.
A never-before-seen beast stood in their way.
