Chapter 1: A Thousand Miles of Escape

In the wilderness, a small group of men and horses absconded in panic

Behind him, a detachment of cavalry closely pursued

The fleeing team is all Eguan Bo belt and Han family clothes

The chasing cavalry is all high-nosed and deep-eyed, wearing iron armor, sheepskin boots under their feet, carrying a shield in their left hand and a knife in their right hand, which is the iron cavalry of the Di tribe under the command of Fu Jian, the king of Great Qin.

Since the rebellion of the Eight Kings in the Western Jin Dynasty, the clothes have crossed to the south, and the national strength has weakened. The Wuhu took advantage of this opportunity to enter the Central Plains and establish several kingdoms in the north one after another, facing the Eastern Jin Dynasty in the south.

The Hu people in the north not only slaughtered the Han people, but also attacked and killed each other, and for a time there were many wars in northern China, and the Central Plains, which was once full of saints' education, has now become a Shura field for the Hu people. It wasn't until the Great Qin Heavenly King Fu Jian was born that he swept away the heroes and the north gradually calmed down.

At this time, it was the sixth year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the Central Plains fell into the hands of the Hu people for a long time.

It was the Sima Nanmu family of the Jin Dynasty who was chased. When Wuhu entered the Central Plains, Sima Nanmu Zu could not escape south, came to Chang'an from Luoyang, hid his clan identity, changed his name and surname to live in seclusion in Chang'an.

Passed to Sima Nanmu's generation, the entire north of the Yangtze River has been included in the bag of Fu Jian, the king of the Great Qin, Fu Jian worked hard, diligent and loved the people, the war-torn north began to gradually recover its vitality, the dark troubled times had a glimmer of dawn, and the people ravaged by the war had the possibility of living and working in peace and contentment. Sima Nanmu saw that he could live a peaceful life, but unexpectedly, his identity as a Jin Dynasty clan was revealed.

Fu Jian has the great ambition of helping the people through the world and unifying the world, and is not satisfied with unifying the north, but also wants to point to the south of the Yangtze River and unify the world. Hearing that there was a clan of the Jin Dynasty under his rule, he prepared to give Sima Nanmu a knight, wanting to show his leniency and induce the Eastern Jin Dynasty to surrender.

Although Sima Nanmu was in the north, he cherished his homeland and did not want to be used by foreign races, so he escaped from Chang'an and prepared to return to the south with his family.

Fu Jian was furious when he heard this, and sent iron cavalry to chase after him.

When they reached the river, Sima Nanmu's family was finally caught up by Fu Jian's iron horse

Hearing the rumbling sound of horses' hooves behind him, Sima Nanmu knew in his heart that his party was exhausted from fleeing for days, and the Di Iron Cavalry was a well-known force in the world. If you run like this, you will inevitably be caught in less than half an hour, and the whole family will definitely be unlucky. If you want to get out, you have to think of other ways.

Sima Nanmu looked around, and saw that there was a forest by the water, lush and green, covering a wide area.

The woods can effectively reduce the speed of the horse, and the cavalry will lose the speed of the horse, and the combat power will plummet.

Sima Nanmu was overjoyed when he saw this, and beckoned the whole family: Go into the woods, quickly

Unexpectedly, as soon as they entered the woods, a rain of arrows came out of the forest, and everyone fell off their horses

It turned out that the pursuing Di generals were quite clever and had long expected that they would flee here, so they sent a message to the flying pigeon and ordered people to ambush in the forest in advance.

Sima's family dismounted one after another, and began to fire arrows back under the cover of horses and trees

Unexpectedly, Sima Nanmu was hit by an arrow at this time, and everyone surrounded him

Sima Nanmu was hit by several arrows in his body, spitting blood from his mouth, and he was unlucky to see it

Sima Nanmu turned to a fierce and heroic young man: Wang Tuo, protect Huan'er...

After speaking, Sima Nanmu died.

A girl dressed as a man but did not hide her national colors threw herself at Sima Nanmu's corpse and cried bitterly: Daddy...

Wangto: Miss, now is not the time to cry...

The girl was in a state of grief and ignored Wangto's advice

At this time, another feather arrow was fired, and Wang Tuo's eyes were quick, and he picked up the girl and rolled around to avoid the sharp arrow

The two got up, and Wang Tuo picked up the girl and ran with the others into the woods

The Wang family has been the general of the Sima family for generations, and they will never abandon their masters in troubled times, so they have won the trust of Sima Nanmu. When Wang Tuo became an adult, he took his father's position and became a family general in Sima's mansion

Sima Nanmu has no heirs, only has one daughter, called Sima Lihuan, who is naturally beautiful and smart.

Li Huan and Wang Tuo are of the same age, and the two have grown up together in the house since childhood. When Wang Tuo became a general, Li Huan asked his father to be his personal guard.

Wang Tuo is good at martial arts by nature, and has received the strictest martial arts training from his father since he was a child. He once lay naked on the ice and snow, and once did not drink a drop of water on the Gobi, this kind of hard training beyond ordinary people gave him superior martial arts and iron will, which came in handy at this time.

The crowd ran forward along a path in the forest, and gradually came to a sparsely wooded place. Wang Tuo suddenly felt that something was wrong and stopped. Li Huan wanted to move on, but was stopped by Wang Tuo.

Li Huan was stunned: What's wrong?

Wangto: Someone.

At this moment, a strange change occurred

With a 'bang', a large net full of barbs appeared above the heads of the two of them, covering them all over the world

Li Huan was shocked, but she didn't know how to deal with it

Wang Tuo put his arm around Lihuan's waist, rolled on the spot, and came to a tree. The black shadow flashed, the net was covered, and the net was covering the tree, and the moment when the net was about to touch the ground, Wang Tuo pulled out his long sword and picked it up, the corner of the net was provoked, and Wang Tuo rolled over again with Li Huan in his arms and escaped from the net.

However, several of the companions were covered by nets, which were barbed into their bodies, and although they struggled desperately, the nets tightened more and more, and it was difficult to escape

The rest of the people drew their swords and tried to cut through the net to save them, but at this time, the high-nosed, deep-eyed, shield-wielding Di warriors swarmed out of the hidden places in the forest like wasps and rushed madly.

Before he could save people, Wang Tuo pulled Li Huan and the others to rush to the woods in the south while slashing and killing, where the trees were thick, and once he entered there, the chances of escape were much greater.

And all the people in the net were killed by the Di warriors, and none of them could survive.

As they entered the woods to the south, blood splattered, screams continued to come from behind them, and brothers who were traveling with them fell.

If Wang Tuo was alone, he would have escaped with his life, but he really did not abandon Li Huan.

'Ahh

In a panic, Li Huan broke his foot and fell heavily to the ground

At this time, a team of Di warriors caught up, and Wang Tuo couldn't help Li Huan up, and met the remaining brothers.

Wang Tuo raised his might, the long sword turned into a flying rainbow, slashed and slashed all around, killing the enemy's blood everywhere, and the chasing Di warriors were finally annihilated, but in addition to Wang Tuo, the other few remaining brothers have all fallen, and only Wang Tuo and Li Huan are left with them.

Wang Tuo looked at these brothers who were like brothers and sisters, took a deep breath, and knew that this was not the time to mourn, so he turned around and prepared to carry Li Huan.

At this time, the strong wind behind him hit the body, and the enemy came again. Wang Tuo didn't have time to turn around, his backhand was a sword, this was a lose-lose play, and sure enough, the wind behind him sounded, and the man avoided it.

Wang Tuo turned around and saw more than a dozen Di warriors behind him.

The leading warrior looked at the ground with an expression of incredulity: Just a few of you have killed so many of my brothers...

At this time, a person rushed into the forest: My lord, the people and horses from Chang'an have arrived outside the forest and want to come in to help

The leading samurai said coldly: I said in advance, if you catch them outside the forest, you will count their credit, and if you catch them in the forest, you will count my credit. At this moment, since the fugitive has fled to the forest, it should be arrested by me. Let them rest outside the forest.

The arrest of Sima Nanmu and his entourage was personally ordered by the Great Qin Heavenly King. If you don't ask, you know that the reward will be great. Although Sima Nanmu is dead, it is also a great achievement to hold her daughter. Therefore, this leading samurai did not want to share the merits with others, so he said this.

Wang Tuo learned that the iron rider outside the forest would not enter the forest, and his heart was a little relieved. But the dozen or so people in front of him are powerful, and they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles, and the number of people is superior... When Wang Tuo saw the dense trees around him, his heart suddenly moved

Wang Tuo: General, you want to take credit for my position, and I also want to avenge my dead brothers, you are a hero, let's fight one-on-one, you win and you make meritorious service, and if I win, I will avenge my brother, dare or not?

Although they were a little surprised to see the corpses on the ground, the impression of the weakness of the Han people had long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the Hu people, and they obviously would not take Wang Tuo, who was a Han person, in their eyes. Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh.

Samurai Leader: Well, you will die willingly

Wang Tuo raised his long sword, set up a portal, and stared closely, his legs slowly pacing to the side

The samurai saw that his body was dignified and his face was serious, and he didn't know what big move to use, so he didn't dare to be contemptuous at the moment, raised the big sword in his hand, and guarded the door

Wang Tuo paced to Li Huan's side, reached out and grabbed a handful of dirt and threw it into the samurai's eyes, the samurai didn't expect him to make such a trick, his eyes were suddenly fascinated by the dirt, Wang Tuo took the opportunity to turn around and pick up Li Huan and run.

Li Huan was on Wang Tuo's back, and when she heard the footsteps behind her, she couldn't help but be anxious: Brother, you let me go and run for your life

Wangto: Needless to say, we are going to die together today.

Li Huan: Their target is me, you don't need to take your life for me

Wang Tuo: What's the point of living without you?

Li Huan and Wang Tuo grew up together, and when they grew up, Wang Tuo became Li Huan's personal guard, inseparable all day long, and they had long been secretly in love, but the master and servant were different on weekdays, and the feelings were suppressed. At this critical moment, the two couldn't help but reveal their true feelings.

The further he went, the more lush the forest became, which was more conducive to stealth, and the footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and he would definitely be caught up after a while, so Wang Tuo found a secret place and hid with Li Huan.

The Di warriors chased after them and saw no trace of them, so they scattered to search.

The two inadvertently walked to the vicinity of Wang Tuo's hideout, and Wang Tuo's long sword silently stretched out and picked up the lower abdomen of the two, and the two fell. A nearby person heard the sound of the two of them falling, and came to check, but before he could get closer, Wang Tuo's long sword reached out from behind the tree and slit his throat.

In the woods, it was originally the Di warriors who ambushed Sima's family, but at this moment, the Di warriors were in the light and Wang Tuo was in the dark, and the situation reversed, and Wang Tuo ambushed the Di warriors

Wang Tuo took advantage of the ghostly terrain in the forest to kill and injure the Di warriors, and in the end, only the leading warrior was killed.

The samurai trembled, raised his sword and looked around, not daring to move a step

Wang Tuo slowly walked out of his hiding place

I saw the sword essence flashing, and the samurai fell.

Wang Tuo and Li Huan walked out of the woods, and outside the forest was the water

Although all the enemies in the forest have been eliminated, there are still Di iron horsemen outside the forest, and the two of them dare not be negligent at all, and walk towards the water

As long as you cross the river, the other side is the place of the Han people

To the delight of the two, there was actually a small boat by the water

Crossing the water, looking back at the woods, the two were like a world apart

Thinking of the tragic death of her family, Li Huan burst into tears and knelt down by the water

Wang Tuo knelt down with her, and the two of them kowtowed to each other as a sign of farewell

After a long time, the two raised their heads and looked at each other

Li Huan threw herself into Wang Tuo's arms: Brother, I only have you in this world...

Wang Tuo: I, Wang Tuo, swear to this water today that I will never be disappointed to Sister Lihuan in this life

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from the opposite bank, and I saw the iron horsemen of the Di tribe coming to the opposite bank, preparing to cross the river

The two of them hurriedly got up and looked around to see if there was a place to hide

Wang Tuo found that there was a Han dock fort ahead, so the two of them ran towards the dock fort, wanting to take refuge for a while

Before the two of them arrived at the dock fort, there were already murderous voices behind them, and Wang Tuo turned around, and the Di warriors had already landed and killed

Wangto: You take refuge in the dock fort and divert the pursuers

Li Huan: No, we have to die together

Wang Tuo: If you look closely, this dock fort is not big, it is difficult to resist the pursuit of the Di people, if we go in together, the dock fort will definitely become the target of attack, if the dock fort is breached, you and I will not escape death. Now the plan, it's better for you to go in and hide, and I'll lead away the pursuers, so that maybe you can escape for your life, and maybe there will be a chance to meet in the future...

Li Huan: Brother...

Vantol pushed her in the direction of the Dock Fort: Hurry up

Li Huan ran into the dock fort, and the people in the fort saw that she was dressed as a Han and a woman, and knew that she was a northern refugee, so they quickly let her in

Li Huan climbed the tower of the dock fort and saw Wang Tuo leading away the pursuers and running in the opposite direction of the dock fort

There are many pursuers, but Wang Tuo is alone, although he is strong in martial arts, but if he falls into the chaos, he will definitely not be lucky

Li Huan burst into tears: Brother, if you die, I will not live alone, in this life you will not live up to me, and I will never fail you...
