Chapter 31 - Sacrifice of Prisoners

Tang Shuangxi and Chen Yu had just arrived not far from the east gate when they saw that the east gate, which had been closed all along, suddenly opened......

A large group of people on horseback rushed out in a panic.

Seeing this, Tang Shuangxi and Chen Yu were overjoyed!

At this time, where in the city can anyone else run on horseback?

Even if it is a rich and powerful person, it is impossible, because the Ming army defending the city will definitely not let it go, not to mention that ordinary people cannot have such a reaction speed, so the people who appear here at this moment, their identities are about to come out!

At that moment, Chen Yu shouted: "If you catch Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo, you will be promoted to the next level immediately, and you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and the brothers will rush to me~"

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men!

What's more, at this moment, when you have won the battle and are beating the water dogs.

In this case, the recruits were originally angry, but at this moment, Chen Yu shouted such a high reward.

A group of recruits immediately used their strength to eat milk and rushed forward with all their might......

And Mu Tianbo and his party who rushed out first also saw tens of thousands of infantry rushing over at this time, although these people's costumes were a little weird, and they were all holding muskets that were not useful, but after all, there were tens of thousands of people, and there was no boundary. In the face of such a big scene, Mu Tianbo was not stupid and chose to run to the other side, even if he had to take a detour for this reason!

Ma Shiying, who rushed out of the city immediately after, was also startled when she saw this scene, and chased after Mu Tianbo's heels without hesitation......

Tang Shuangxi was so anxious to see this that he jumped straight to his feet, the opposite side was full of four legs, and his own side was all two legs, this situation is not advantageous!

Seeing that the duck in his hand was about to fly, Tang Shuangxi subconsciously raised the musket in his hand, but then reacted that he had no gunpowder.

Chen Yu, who was closely following Tang Shuangxi, couldn't help but think of the little gunpowder he left just now just in case when he saw Tang Shuangxi raise his gun......

Chen Yu, who was overjoyed, hurriedly yelled at his own soldiers: "Hurry... Fast... Fast...... Hurry up and charge the charge and shoot it. ”

Maybe it's because you've won the battle and you're relaxed. The reload speed has been increased, and the front-loading smoothbore gun, which was supposed to only fire two shots a minute.

Under Chen Yu's continuous urging, in less than 20 seconds, the sound of sparse gunshots had already sounded.

"Bang... Bang......"

With the sound of gunshots, Ma Shiying's cronies, who had already run more than 100 meters in front, were unbelievably knocked off their horses one after another by front-loading smoothbore guns......

The screams of his companions before they died obviously inspired the determination of the others to flee for their lives, and at this moment, no one cared about the horses, and even someone had already pulled out the waist knife he carried with him and plunged it straight into the horse's buttocks!

The horses that suffered from pain exploded with the potential of their whole bodies in an instant.

In less than a minute, the rider who was running at the back threw the infantry running at the front to the back of 400 meters......

No one gave the order, but all the pursuing infantry gradually stopped. Tang Shuangxi and Chen Yu, who were running up and down, couldn't help but glance at each other at the same time at this moment. But I only saw the bitterness in each other's eyes!

Chen Yu said nothing with a gloomy face, but Tang Shuangxi suddenly slapped himself, and he was annoyed in his heart!

Why didn't Xu Bao leave thousands of people outside the city in the first place......

Tang Chunlai, who was also panting at this moment, saw that Tang Shuangxi was ruthless to him, and after a little pondering, he understood Tang Shuangxi's thoughts, and couldn't help but persuade.

"Brother Shuangxi, don't be upset, we know what you're thinking, but you don't want to think about what kind of person Xu Bao is, even if you let him leave someone to guard outside the city, I'm afraid that the moment they see us break the city, they should still grab the merit, and it is impossible to honestly guard the other three city gates......"

Just as Tang Chunlai was aggressively persuading Tang Shuangxi, Ma Shiying and his party, who had already run away, rushed back on horseback.

Seeing this scene, more than 10,000 infantry who had not yet breathed their breath were stunned, and then immediately reacted, and rushed forward again as if they had been beaten with chicken blood......

Tang Shuangxi and Chen Yu also couldn't understand why the person on the other side who had already run away ran back again!

However, at this moment, it was not the time to care about these, the two hurriedly arranged their troops, let everyone disperse into a skirmish line, and intercept each other as much as possible.

It's a pity that the next scene made more than 10,000 infantry directly stunned, and many even forgot to take a leg while running. I was stunned and fell to the ground, and I was trampled on by many colleagues in vain!

And Chen Yu and Tang Shuangxi saw a ghostly figure. A few ups and downs fell into the fleeing crowd from a great distance, and suddenly their faces were as earthy as they were!

……

Half an hour later.

Xu Bao, who was hugging left and right in the city and enjoying life, also received the news that Zhang Yun had arrived outside the city and hurried out......

Outside a huge tent that was hastily set up outside the city, Xu Bao saw Tang Shuangxi and Chen Yu kneeling straight outside the tent, and suddenly his heart chuckled!

Not daring to say hello to these two unlucky ghosts, Xu Bao took a deep breath and tried to calm down before slowly walking into the tent with his head down......

"Humble Xu Bao, I've seen Zhang Daochang."

Seeing Xu Bao, who didn't even dare to raise his head, walked in, Zhang Yun also took the opportunity to end the communication with Ma Shiying.

Turning back to Xu Baodao: "General Xu, you came just in time, Master Ma and Qianguo Gong, no matter how Poor Dao persuaded them, they refused to stay, but Poor Dao didn't want to lose the reputation of killing prisoners, plus Li Dingguo was still fighting in Sichuan with almost the entire army of the Ming Dynasty, maybe he could use these two, Poor Dao, I want you to take the two of them back to Sichuan together." ”

"Of course, the new force of your 20,000 cavalry, I'm afraid Li Dingguo is also eager to penetrate, so you can leave now!"

The corners of Xu Bao's mouth twitched when he heard this, remembering that so many treasures in the city had not been shipped out, and so many women had not been spoiled......

"Ahem!"

Zhang Yun saw that Xu Bao was a little hesitant and couldn't help coughing.

Hearing this cough, Xu Bao shuddered, and involuntarily remembered the two unlucky ghosts outside the tent door.

Xu Bao naturally nodded again and again, and immediately led 20,000 cavalry to escort Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo to Li Dingguo.

And Zhang Yun saw that Xu Bao had misunderstood what he meant, and probably thought that he had a good impression of the famous Ming cabinet chief assistant Ma Shiying and Qianguo Gong Mu Tianbo, and what courtesy should he give them!

couldn't help but hint at it, "Poor Dao heard that Li Dingguo was fighting very hard in Sichuan, and I think that with two big people like Master Ma and Grandpa Mu to be guests, Li Dingguo will definitely be able to exchange with Chongzhen for what he wants, Xu Bao, you can't neglect the two of them on the road!" ”

Zhang Yun blinked again after speaking, Xu Bao is a clever person, and he suddenly understood at this moment, and then looked at Ma Shiying and Mu Tianbo. His eyes changed immediately......

Xu Bao can understand Zhang Yun's hints, Ma Shiying is such a top person, how can he not understand!

At this moment, he hurriedly said indignantly: "I can't imagine that the Taoist chief doesn't think about the old feelings at all, and wants to force someone to die on the road to ......."

Seeing this, Zhang Yun hurriedly comforted: "Master Ma, you have filtered, Poor Dao does not mean to harm your life, just to let General Xu in front of you send you to Li Dingguo as a guest, Poor Dao can make a guarantee here, before you meet Li Dingguo, you will definitely have no worries!" ”

After Zhang Yun finished speaking, he saw that Ma Shiying was still entangled, so he hurriedly glanced at Xu Bao......
