Chapter 697: The Tenth Reincarnation 13
"Xiaoshan, Dayong...... It's me who hurt you, it's me who hurt you......" Lou Ruonan's heart ached, and he couldn't help but murmur sadly.
She and Xu Bin naturally knew that Fang Cai's strange siren sound was sent by Xiaoshan and Dayong, who had infiltrated the enemy camp with them, and they didn't have to think about it to guess that they knew they were desperate when they found out that there was an ambush, in order to create a glimmer of life for their generals and lieutenants, they chose to remind these two people in the most subtle and safe way: There is an ambush in the camp, run away!
Their intentions are good, but this is obviously just a dying struggle, because the deployment map was given by Chen Liangde, so wherever Chen Liangde wants them to go, they can only appear there.
The fire on the haystack grew stronger and stronger, and soon the patrolling guards were alarmed. But neither Lou Ruonan nor Xu Bin heard the sound of the horn, which symbolized the gathering of soldiers, but heard the sound of neat steps constantly approaching them.
"Chen Liangde, you old gelding dog who has no children and grandchildren!" Xu Bin clenched his teeth, and his eagle-like sharp eyes almost erupted in flames.
A long chirp of "chirp-" resounded in the sky, and it was Xu Bin who sent an arrow into the sky.
They had already made arrangements before they arrived, and although it was only the four of them who had infiltrated the enemy camp, there was an elite squad less than a mile away from the camp and an ambush there in order to deal with a sudden crisis. After all, they couldn't really pin their hopes on Chen Liangde, and God would know if he had sent someone to lurk outside the enemy camp to meet them.
However, after the praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finch, what Lou Ruonan and Xu Bin did not expect was that the elite team under their command had already become the target of others when they infiltrated the patrol range of the enemy camp, and they were almost silently annihilated by the people who were secretly ambushed by Wuxiong.
After releasing the arrows, Xu Bin and Lou Ruonan did not sit still, and the two immediately turned around and ran outside the camp.
Smoke was everywhere, severely obstructing their view, and the footsteps of methodical Uchon soldiers seemed to linger near them all the time.
Xu Bin turned his heart sideways, took Lou Ruonan's hand, and wanted to perform light skills and fly up.
But the next moment, there was a sudden stumble under his feet, and he almost fell on the spot.
"Binzi, what's wrong with you?" Lou Ruonan was startled and hurriedly hugged him.
In the flaming firelight, Xu Bin's face suddenly turned pale, and fine sweat appeared on his forehead, he almost crushed his steel teeth, and said in a deep voice: "Damn Wuxiong, the white smoke burned by this haystack is poisonous!"
Lou Ruonan was a little inexplicable, because she didn't notice any other discomfort except that she felt that the white smoke was very choking.
But now is not the time to dwell on this issue, she grabbed Xu Bin's waist and made a gesture to show light skills.
"Don't ......" Xu Bin's reminder was too late, and Lou Ruonan was the same as him, stumbling on the soles of his feet, and reached out to cover his chest in pain.
"It turns out that this poison can't mobilize internal breath...... Binzi, why didn't you say it earlier?" Lou Ruonan rolled his eyes at Xu Bin.
Xu Bin gasped and looked at her helplessly, "You are usually thoughtful, why can't you even think of this?"
"If we can't mobilize the internal breath, we don't even have the strength to fight to the death, and the poisonous gas will spread in the body, sealing the acupuncture points around us. Uxiong has already calculated, and it looks like we're doomed tonight. Lou Ruonan quickly calmed down, but it was useless to see through the situation, because it was a complete dead end.
"They're playing with the two of us as turtles in an urn. In that case, let's play with them. Xu Bin's eyes flashed with determination, and he took Lou Ruonan's hand and began to run quickly towards the deeper part of the haystack.
Although Lou Ruonan has been practicing martial arts since childhood, compared with Xu Bin, who has also practiced martial arts since childhood and is taller and burlier than her, without the support of internal breath, as a woman, she is still inevitably inferior to Xu Bin as a man in terms of strength.
Seeing this man pulling himself like a wild horse to run frantically deeper into the enemy camp, Lou Ruonan couldn't help but feel surprised, and asked while gasping, "Binzi, what are you doing here?"
"Don't speak, save some energy, and I'll take you out. Don't worry, I won't let you have any problems. Xu Bin's deep voice came into the woman's ears with a heavy wheezing sound, and there was a bit of irresistible power in that tone.
After less than a cup of tea, the smoke around them gradually thinned, and the footsteps of the soldiers were almost inaudible. The light around was getting darker and darker, and Lou Ruonan had been taken out of the camp by Xu Bin when he couldn't distinguish between southeast and northwest, and broke into a sparse forest.
It is more appropriate to say that this is not so much a wood, but a pile of wild grass, and the unknown weeds almost all grow to the height of Lou Ruonan's waist, and they can be completely hidden in the grass when they are short.
However, Xu Bin did not stop there, but pulled Lou Ruonan and continued to run forward.
After running for almost a stick of incense, Xu Bin stopped out of breath and hid himself and Lou Ruonan behind a big tree that was growing relatively well.
"Binzi, you seem to be ...... Quite familiar with this place?" This was the first thing Lou Ruonan said to Xu Bin after relieving himself.
Even if it was pitch black, Xu Bin could feel that Lou Ruonan's beautiful eyes were looking at him with deep suspicion at this time.
The question was not answered immediately, which was something that Lou Ruonan expected, and she did not urge, because from the bottom of her heart, she was also a little afraid that she would get an answer that she was unwilling to accept.
In the darkness, the two looked at each other, because as their eyes gradually became accustomed to and adapted to their surroundings, they could already see each other's expressions clearly.
Xu Bin's heart tightened, he didn't want the woman around him to have any doubts about him in such a critical situation. So after a short silence, he spoke softly, "General, actually...... My father was from Wuxiong. ”
"What?" Lou Ruonan was taken aback. Don't say that it is the Great Yuan Kingdom, and there is no country in the world that does not make any records about the identity and origin of the soldiers who serve in the army. And like Xu Bin, who was promoted all the way from the most ordinary soldier to the position of deputy general at a young age, he had to be innocent.
However, the lieutenant who she had always valued and trusted actually told her at such a critical juncture tonight that his father was from Wuxiong......
Does this mean that for years she has been in the company of a jackal, tiger and leopard with hidden claws, and regarded him as a brother and brother, even ...... It's the people who are closer.
The emotion in the woman's eyes stung Xu Bin's heart, he subconsciously clenched his fists, and said in a low voice: "My mother is a Dayuan person, she ...... It was robbed by my father. I have lived on the border of Dayuan since I was a child, and I am very familiar with the surrounding landscape. When I was a child, my mother used to tell me that she missed her country, and I knew that she wanted to go back to Dayuan, and I knew that she hated my father.
"Because my mother is from Dayuan, I have been ostracized by the people around me since I was a child, and they treat me as a foreign race and make it difficult for me everywhere. My father was away all the year round, and every time he came home, he would bring back a woman, and he had long lost his initial interest in my mother, so he didn't care about me at all.
"When I was nine years old, my mother finally escaped from that home and returned to Dayuan with me all the hardships. It's just that I found that after returning to Dayuan, she was not as happy as I imagined, and she died depressed within a few years. After my mother left, I went to one of her distant relatives, and then I joined the army, and then I met you. ”
Lou Ruonan's beautiful eyes widened, she never thought that this deputy general who had been by her side for nearly four years would have such a life experience, and she was even more unbelievable that this man would actually tell his life experience.
"Binzi, you ...... Since you are from Wuxiong, why do you want to join my Dayuan's army? You tell me all this now, aren't you afraid that I will suspect you of evil intentions?" Lou Ruonan frowned, and his heart was quite complicated.
Xu Bin shook his head, "I still have half of the blood of the Great Yuan Kingdom flowing in my body, I can be a Wuxiong person or a Great Yuan person." Wuxiong and Dayuan have had a long-standing grudge, but the people of the two countries are still suffering from the perennial war. Over the years, Da Yuan has been weak, and Wu Xiong wants to take the opportunity to defeat and annex Da Yuan in one fell swoop, which is not what I want to see.
"This is my mother's homeland, a place where she would rather die alone than return to her roots. Uchon has taken too much from my mother, and I have to protect this territory for her. ”
"But...... Don't you have any nostalgia for your father and for the Wuxiong who gave birth to you for nine years? When you killed those Wuxiong compatriots on the battlefield, didn't you feel a little pain and guilt in your heart?" Lou Ruonan's voice was very soft, but the emotions of doubt and distress fluctuated very obviously.
Xu Bin hooked the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled bitterly: "The so-called battlefield has no father and son, and there is no brother at the gambling table, we are all just a chess piece in the hands of those in power." As I just said, the most fundamental reason why I joined Dayuan's army was to protect my mother's homeland.
"In addition, only when Dayuan's forces become stronger, Wuxiong will not dare to be so presumptuous. If the two countries can stop the war and then communicate with each other, then my years of war will not be in vain, and I will be able to turn a blind eye under the Wuxiong soldiers who died in my hands. ”
After that, he shook his head self-deprecatingly: "But now it seems that these are just my wishful thinking. Da Yuan has been weak for a long time, and now the eunuchs are in power, and we soldiers are desperate on the battlefield, but they put cold arrows behind their backs, and secretly do some unseemly things with the enemy leader. ”
