The crisp sound of the horse's hooves echoed in his ears, and Qishi grabbed the reins tightly, increasing the horse's speed to the extreme. The bumpy feeling on horseback also intensified, and bursts of Venus appeared in front of Qishi's eyes.

This is a very reckless ride in the dark, and if the horse stumbles, there is a danger of falling off the horse. But Qi Shiqiang cheered up and stared at the end of the line of sight, and there was no time to care.

"There's a fire ahead!" Hua Die pointed to the southeast direction and said hurriedly.

Qishi said categorically: "That won't be Childe, prepare for battle, there may be enemies!" ”

Sure enough, when that group saw Qingyun soldiers, they didn't say anything, they raised their bows and shot! The Qingyun soldiers who took the lead had already prepared, and they dodged sideways on their horses.

Then the Qingyun soldiers entered the enemy formation, and the enemy did not expect that the arrivals were all hard stubble, and the battle ended quickly.

The first battle was successful, and there were no casualties on the side of the Qingyun soldiers. Of the twenty-two enemies, fourteen were killed and eight wounded.

They have different colors of clothing and different weapons, and it is impossible to tell the true origin. Qishi arranged for Qingyun soldiers to watch the prisoners from a distance, and ordered Huadie to interrogate them one by one.

His subordinates dragged over a prisoner, and Hua Die put the scimitar on his neck, and said, "If I ask a question, you will answer, and if you don't speak, I will kill you, anyway, there are seven more people to ask." ”

The man kept his mouth shut and didn't speak, and Hua Die looked at Qishi, but Qishi didn't say anything. Butterfly raised and fell, and the captive was killed.

The second person is also a tough guy, although there is fear on his face, but he also does not say a word.

"Kill." Qi Shi said softly, Sun Shao's life and death are uncertain, and she doesn't have much patience. Butterfly happily complied.

The third person finally couldn't hold it anymore, and he scolded: "Jiangdong dog! ”

Qi Shiyi raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Next." ”

The blade slashed through the man's throat, and another life was lost.

"If you open your mouth and scold the Jiangdong people, that is, you Jingzhou assassins, it is really an old routine of ambushing in the middle of the night." Qi Shi sat on the horse, his tone was calm, and he said to the fourth person, "Don't try to hold on, since you are still here to set up a card, it means that Zhou Xu has not fallen into your hands." I could have thrown you all into the lake and kept going, and I would only give you time to count to ten. ”

Butterfly began to count, and as soon as she counted to five, the man couldn't hold on.

"Don't kill me! I say it all! I'm from Jingzhou, but I don't know them. It's just that I'm sure they're Jingzhou soldiers from various places, just like me. ”

Things were a little unexpected, and Qi Shi said in a deep voice: "You mean, you don't know each other, but you gathered together to ambush Zhou Xu?" ”

"Yes......"

Qi Shi pondered, the current situation has become complicated, there are more than 100 of these assassins, all of them were drawn from various local armies by Huang Zong's son Huang Jie three days ago.

The ambush of Zhou Xu was only confirmed this afternoon. It is obvious that someone leaked Zhou Xu's whereabouts, and Sun Shao just took it with him.

After the interrogation, he learned about the pursuit arrangement of the Jingzhou assassins, and Qi Shi determined the approximate location of Zhou Xu and the others.

"Hua Die, leave this person behind, we have to rush to the mouth of the two rivers. With the continuous encirclement and interception of the Jingzhou soldiers, Gongzi and they could only retreat to Shuanghekou to wait for help. ”

Butterfly whispered, "What about the other captives? ”

Qi Shi was stunned, it stands to reason that she shouldn't be alive, but she still said: "The weapon was thrown into the lake, and the people were tied up, leaving them to fend for themselves." ”

The Qingyun soldiers set off again, and it was almost midnight at this time, and the dark clouds had already dissipated, and there was a little moonlight. The surface of the lake glows with a shimmering silver light, guiding them in the right direction.

Fire, shouting, and swords intersecting, and on the shallows where two rivers meet, two waves of people are fighting!

Finally found Sun Shao and Zhou Xu!

Without waiting for Qishi to give orders, Butterfly rushed to the enemy formation first.

There were about 30 Jingzhou soldiers who were besieging, and they had already dragged Zhou Xu back, just waiting for the follow-up men and horses to surround them, but they didn't want to be suddenly attacked from behind by a group of soldiers and horses, causing a burst of chaos among the Jingzhou soldiers.

Kiyo shouted loudly, "Lord Taishou! Lujiang reinforcements have arrived, please break through! ”

She then bypassed the warring sides and ran to the shallows, successfully attracting the pursuit of several Jingzhou soldiers.

At this critical juncture, Qishi's horse suddenly broke his weak leg and almost threw Qishi off the horse's back. Qi Shi hurriedly controlled his mount, but his speed was lost and he was caught up by a Jingzhou soldier!

"Die!" Seeing that it was done, but this girl led people to reverse the situation, the embarrassed and angry Jingzhou soldiers rose and fell!

With the last of her strength, she slipped off her horse, and the knife skipped her back and slashed into the saddle.

Although the shallows are soft, it is impossible for Qishi to stand up immediately after falling from his horse.

At the last moment, only the sound of the bowstring was heard, and the Jingzhou soldier was pierced through the throat by an arrow and was killed instantly.

"Ashi!" Sun Shao threw down his longbow and ran to her side.

"Childe...... Finally found you. Qishi grabbed Sun Shao's sleeve and said with difficulty.

At this time, another Jingzhou soldier rushed over and stabbed Sun Shao with a spear. Sun Shao first used his body to protect Qishi, and then slashed out with a knife and knocked the Jingzhou soldiers off their horses.

There were only seven people left around Zhou Xu, and at this time he also launched a charge, cooperating with the Qingyun soldiers to attack before and after.

Jingzhou soldiers left more than a dozen corpses behind and temporarily retreated. They still have follow-up troops, and if they find that there is no large Lujiang army activity around, they will still come back and eat Zhou Xu's piece of fat.

Sun Shao stuck the long knife on the ground and hugged Qi Shi with both hands, his hands were trembling, and his voice was trembling, "Ah Shi, you are taking such a big risk, what should you do if something happens!" ”

"Childe, this place is not suitable for a long time. They are Jingzhou soldiers, and there are more than 100 people, who have come to ambush you. ”

Sun Shao nodded and said, "That's right, we have to evacuate quickly." With a slight force in his arms, he hugged Qi Shi into his arms.

"Ahh Qishi resisted shyly, but his body was weak and weak, and he couldn't break free.

Sun Shao stood up, hugged Qishi by the waist, and said softly, "Be obedient, don't move." Your body is covered with sweat, and you are already out of strength, and if you walk on your own, you will fall into the root of the disease. ”

Although Zhou Xu has also experienced a hard battle, his demeanor is still the same, and he does not lose his true character as a Confucian general. They were on their way back to the city when they were suddenly attacked and taken by surprise.

Moreover, the enemy deliberately forced them to the river, and they had to flee to the shore of Lake Naiko, which was the only option to stick to the rescue.

Now that Zhou Xu has this question, he may not have an idea, this is by the way to test Sun Shao.

Who knew that Sun Shao said: "Ah Shi is resourceful, even if Uncle Zhou asks her, I listen to her on weekdays." ”

Yes...... Qi Shi is not afraid to discuss with a master of the art of war like Zhou Gongjin, but at this time, he is being held in Sun Shao's arms, how can he say serious things!
