Chapter 026: Night Attack (2)
The tree is very popular, and the emperor of the Great Zhou prepared these dowries for me, although it shows the grandeur of the Great Zhou, but it also attracts the eyes of the robbers. Although this is the princess's send-off procession, anyone who is a little sane will not fight this idea.
But there are always crazy people who will do anything for money and have no scruples. Even if it is to lose his head, even if it damages the diplomacy of the Great Zhou, it is simply for the sake of money, and he will not think about anything.
Although I couldn't see the situation outside, I could tell from the sound of swords outside the tent that the bandits were simply running for the dowry, and no one came to the tent at all.
I curiously opened the curtain of the tent, and through the bonfire outside the tent, I saw Li Da, Ye Liuyun, Sun Zhengcheng and a few officers and soldiers guarding outside the tent, fighting with a few thieves. The rest of the soldiers, Gu Shoucheng, were engaged in a fight with a group of bandits near several other carriages with dowries.
These bandits outside the tent were quickly eliminated by several people, but Gu Shoucheng and the others on the dowry side were obviously struggling. Seeing Ye Liuyun and Li Da pull out their hands, I pulled Du Ruo and hurriedly rushed to the front of a few people.
"You're not hurt, are you?" I asked with concern, Li Da and Ye Liuyun shook their heads with a smile, "A few thieves can't help us." Sun Zheng came over with a sword in his hand, put one hand on Ye Liuyun's shoulder, Ye Liuyun dodged for a while, and then pouted at him dissatisfiedly, Sun Zheng remembered that Ye Liuyun had an injury on his shoulder, and retracted his arm very apologetically.
"Didn't you let you hide in the tent, why did you suddenly run out again?" Ye Liuyun asked unceremoniously.
I thought to myself, "That's not because I'm worried about what's going on outside. But he argued forcefully: "It's good that we come out, otherwise how can we know the battle situation?" I only looked at Gu Shoucheng's side and ordered to a few other soldiers: "The goal of this group of bandits is dowry, you go and help General Gu and get rid of these robbers!" Several soldiers received the order, grabbed their blades and rushed over, while Ye Liuyun, Li Da, and Sun Zhengzhi were still stunned.
I couldn't help but get angry and said, "A few of you also went over to help, isn't it already clean here?" ”
"I'm only responsible for keeping you safe, and the dowry and others are not within my responsibility." Ye Liuyun put on a look of nothing to do with himself, and dragged against me.
Li Da also echoed on the side: "Your Royal Highness Princess, your safety is more important than anything else, not to mention, General Gu is a person who has fought in battles, these thieves should be no problem." ”
As Li Da said, this wave of bandits' martial arts is indeed rare, but the victory lies in the number of people. Although there are a lot of people in Gu Shoucheng, this journey is hard, the water and soil are not suitable, and many soldiers have also consumed a lot of physical strength in order to help me find Langzhong, so the overall combat effectiveness has still decreased a lot.
When I saw that many people were injured, and some were even killed by robbers, I hurriedly pushed Ye Liuyun and Li Da, "Go and help, if General Gu and they are defeated, it will be difficult for us to survive." ”
Li Da hesitated for a moment, but finally obeyed. "Okay, Brother Ye, the safety of Her Royal Highness the princess will be handed over to you!" After speaking, Li Da held the blade and rushed into the battle.
Ye Liuyun still stayed still, and Sun Zheng even pulled Ye Liuyun and shouted: "I don't know martial arts, you have to protect us here." ”
Seeing these two troublesome guys lying on my side, I couldn't help but have a little headache, I was about to push Ye Liuyun to help, but Ye Liuyun's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he suddenly reached out and took me into his arms.
The sudden change caught me off guard, and when I came back to my senses, I was about to raise my face and teach this light person a lesson, when a stream of blood splashed on Ye Liuyun's cold face.
Du Ruo on the side was startled and hurriedly ran in the direction of Sun Zheng. Sun Zheng was also very scared, but in front of the girl, he still pretended to be brave as a man, held his sword, and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, there is Ye Guard." ”
I couldn't help but sweat coldly on my spine, this group of robbers actually killed me, it seems that our convoy should be far away from Kyoto, otherwise how can this group of robbers not be taboo.
I pushed Ye Liuyun away, although I didn't blame him for his offense because of his rescue, but there was still some embarrassment on my face.
Sun Zhengyi praised Ye Liuyun's quick reaction while pulling Du Ruo towards Ye Liuyun's side.
I don't know if it was because of my mistake in layout, so that the robbers found that the strength here was weak, and they all started to attack me.
I suddenly thought of the scene where Ye Liuyun hijacked the Song family unit that day, yes, instead of fighting hard, it is better to kidnap me, the princess who doesn't know anything, quickly.
Thinking of this, I deeply began to blame myself again. It seems that he is really sick and confused, and he actually played such a faint move.
Soon, another bandit rushed over, Ye Liuyun blocked me, Du Ruo, and even Sun Zheng behind him, waving his sword to meet the bandits. At this time, another bandit attacked me and Du Ruo and Sun Zheng from another direction, Sun Zheng stood up with a long sword in his hand to deal with it, but most of them were protecting, and it was thanks to Ye Liuyun who took the time to turn around and cut the bandit's neck, so we had a breather.
Seeing the killing, Du Ruo was still screaming in fear, but I suddenly calmed down. I hurriedly picked up two steel knives from the ground and handed one of them to Du Ruo.
"Hold it, we have to learn to protect ourselves!"
Du Ruo took the steel knife with both hands, obviously she couldn't bear the weight of the steel knife. Fortunately, in the past, I followed my father to practice some boxing and kicking, so although it was a young lady's life, she raised a maid's strength.
Soon another bandit rushed over, Ye Liuyun pushed a few of us into the tent, and he was outside the tent to resist the attack of these bandit units. I have to say that Ye Liuyun is a master, in the face of these bandits with sparse martial arts, they are basically quick moves to kill with one move, but these bandits are still rushing over one after another frantically.
Obviously, they want to rely on the advantage of being large in numbers to break out of Ye Liuyun's pass. It's just that they soon discovered that Ye Liuyun became more and more courageous the more he fought, and he already had the momentum of being a man of ten thousand people. The so-called war is a momentum, and Ye Liuyun is getting more and more angry, which makes the bandits have to think about other ways out.
It is not very safe for me and Du Ruo and Sun Zheng to hide in the tent, after all, the walls of this tent are only coarse cloth, and it can be cut through with a sharp blade. We watched warily around us.
Sure enough, these bandits also quickly thought of this, and suddenly the four walls of the tent were cut out, and the good people and bandits got in directly through the cut, Sun Zheng stepped forward to hit one, but after all, he only used a knife to move the dead, and for the living, he was still a little timid after all.
"Quick, let's get out!"
I pulled Du Ruo and shouted to Sun Zheng to exit the tent again.
