Chapter 12: Breaking the Bridge

In an instant, the enemy's nearly 800 cavalry was eliminated, but despite this, the 800 cavalry on his side was still a little insufficient to see the enemy's more than 2,000 cavalry.

The enemy army lost seven or eight hundred cavalry before it started, and at first it was a little panicked, worried that there were still any tricks on the side of the Eastern Jin Dynasty that had not been used, so they did not dare to act rashly, their own numbers were already at a disadvantage, the enemy did not move, and Xu Mengmeng naturally would not take the initiative to attack stupidly before General Zhang brought people over, and for a while, the two sides were staring at the corpses all over the ground.

When the enemy noticed that the Eastern Jin Dynasty was delaying and was about to move, Xu Mengmeng finally heard the roar of General Wu behind him, and immediately rushed forward with an order, after all, it was not clear what the situation was at the bridge, so it was necessary to fight quickly. With the addition of more than 3,000 cavalry brought by General Wu, the situation was reversed in an instant.

Xu Mengmeng led the team to quickly solve the close enemy head and went to the bridge without looking back, only to find that he was still a little late when he arrived at the bridge, and the soldiers brought by Daniel Zhang had already fought with many enemy troops, and the most important thing was that a large number of enemy soldiers and horses were guarding the bridge, and the bridge was densely packed with enemy troops who wanted to cross the bridge.

"Kill~" Xu Mengmeng roared and rode a horse to kill the past, gradually more and more cavalry came, and the battle became more and more tragic, although the number of his side was small, but the cavalry had obvious combat advantages.

Xu Mengmeng had no time to care about anything else at this time, so she only led the team to fight at the bridge, but fortunately, everyone was blocked at the bridge, and the enemy troops on the bridge couldn't come for a while.

"Ah~" sideways dodged the enemy's fatal knife, Xu Mengmeng clenched his hands with both hands and slashed down hard at the rope on the side of the bridge, the rope broke, the long bridge shook, and the enemy troops in the center of the bridge fell into the water in pieces, and were swept away by the turbulent river before they could struggle.

"General Ning, be careful!" Before Xu Mengmeng could breathe a sigh of relief, a loud roar came from not far away, and he subconsciously moved a step to the side to avoid the strong wind behind him, and the knife that was about to fall on the back of his neck fell on his right arm, and the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

Ignoring the bleeding and injured arm, he kicked away the guy who injured himself, quickly pulled out the dagger tied to his calf with his left hand, and relied on his nimble skills to approach the rope on the other side of the bridge, and quickly attacked from the nearby enemy, snatched a large knife from the hands of the neighboring enemy, and slashed down according to the rope.

The moment the rope broke, Xu Mengmeng's left shoulder felt a pain, and the hand that was originally holding the handrail on the shore subconsciously let go, and was squeezed into the river with a thud.

The surging river water was surging and hitting her body, Xu Mengmeng only felt that her eyes were blackened, and her body was getting heavier and heavier, but she didn't dare to let herself fall asleep like this, otherwise everything would be over, so she could only bite her lip desperately to stay awake, while holding her breath and swimming towards the shore.

Fortunately, the place where he fell into the water was not far from the shore, and with some effort he finally climbed up, and collapsed to the ground, unable to lift half his strength, and watched the enemy's sword fall.

Many scenes flashed in Xu Mengmeng's mind, and finally turned into the face engraved in the depths of his soul.

"I'm sorry," Xu Mengmeng muttered and lost consciousness.

When I woke up again, I felt as if I was in a sea of fire, the heat in my body rushed out, my forehead was full of sweat, and my throat was like smoking.

"The young master woke up, drink the medicine first!" The cold words fell, and before Xu Mengmeng could react, she was directly poured into a bowl of medicine, and the bitter taste made her facial features wrinkle together.

"Ahem~ How is the war?" Xu Mengmeng looked at Chi Yu with an anxious expression, and asked in a dumb voice, who knew that Chi Yu only turned his head and glanced at her coldly before turning around and leaving, making her a little baffled.

After drinking the medicine, a wave of sleepiness hit, and Xu Mengmeng fell asleep again.

When he woke up again, the heat on his body dissipated a lot, and he also had some spirits, Xu Mengmeng only then found that he was not in the camp, but in a room, and it was pitch black outside, this should have been brought back to Rongcheng!

The door was pushed open, and Xu Mengmeng turned his head to look over.

"Akabane"

"You just have a fever, let's drink some porridge first!"

"What's wrong with you? But what bad happened in the previous battle? Could it be that Rongcheng has been lost? ”

Looking at the cold-faced man in front of him, Xu Mengmeng was a little anxious, could it be that he had spent so much effort to cut down the Songxue Bridge and still failed to stop the enemy army?

"It's not"

"What is it that makes you look so ugly? No, I'll go out and see for myself! ”

Xu Meng simply sat up from the bed, bent down to put on his shoes and wanted to run out, but was grabbed by the wrist and dragged back.

"What does it have to do with you if Rongcheng is lost, what do you care about it so much!" The long-suppressed worry suddenly exploded, and Akabane roared directly.

"Akabane? What the hell is going on, you tell me okay? Xu Mengmeng couldn't understand why the always calm Red Feather suddenly lost his temper, and only thought that what happened was very serious, so he was even more anxious.

"It's okay, Rongcheng has not been lost, and the enemy troops who crossed the bridge have also been killed! I'm just mad at you, Miss! Akabane took the person into his arms, and his tone softened a lot.

"Me?" Xu Mengmeng pointed at himself in disbelief.

"How can I, Miss Qi, not take my life seriously, and risk her life so casually! Miss is the hope of the General's Mansion, if something happens to Miss, then who will wash away the grievances of the General's Mansion, and what should we do? ”

"Akabane, I don't take my life seriously, I cherish my life very much! And I'm fine now, and besides, one person has to do it, and if it's not me, it's the other brothers, it's just that I'm shorter and more flexible than the others!

Do you know? I always thought that I was living to wash away the injustices of the General's Mansion, but when I got here, I realized that my responsibility was to use my body that may not be strong to protect the people behind me, just like my father and brother, and I think this is what my father wants to see! ”

Hearing a somewhat choked male voice above his head, Xu Mengmeng's voice softened a lot.

"Well, just pay attention to your own safety next time!"

"Well, don't worry! Isn't that still yours! By the way, I didn't reveal that I was a woman, did I? ”

Nothing major happened, Xu Mengmeng's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and he had the energy to think about other issues.

"No, I was close to Miss at that time, after Miss went ashore, Zhao Qianhu rescued Miss and handed it to me, so I asked me to take you away, it happened that General Li arrived with the infantry in the city, I took advantage of the chaos to bring you back, Miss also knew that I would have a little medical skills, so I didn't bother the military doctor, fortunately, now you have woken up, otherwise we can't hide it."

"And how is the battle going? Are you hurt? Although Xu Mengmeng cut the Songxue Bridge in time, in the end, his side noticed that it was a little late, and the enemy had already crossed the bridge in a large number, so he didn't need to think about it to know how tragic the battle was at that time.
