Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Moon Is Dark and the Wind is High (4)
He Yue squatted nervously on the side of the carriage, watching what was happening outside.
After being injured by the other party's hidden weapon, it seems to arouse the fear in the hearts of the horsemen. Many people subconsciously took two steps back, and finally realized that this was really not a joke, the other party must be a professionally trained killer, can they stop it, or give their lives in vain?
Zhang Banlei didn't know what to do. After Captain Zheng took the lead in escaping, he was the "second master" in the hearts of everyone. But what should I do now? My good brother has been injured. Although there are more of them than each other, they are definitely not their opponents when they really want to fight. But... Just let them go? The people of the Underworld come when they want to come, and leave when they want?
"Haven't you figured it out yet?"
"Big brother, let's do it! don't be polite to them. ”
"Childe, these horsemen don't want to die themselves, send them to death!"
There was a loud discussion in the opposing camp. Zhang Banlei saw that several horsemen behind him had sighed and retreated several steps to both sides. They were blocked in front of the Stygian Ze Kingdom and the others, and they looked extremely weak at the moment.
"Brother Zhang, what should I do..."
Zhang Banlei took a deep breath, shook his head, and just wanted to speak, when the person behind him who was holding him suddenly yelled, "Brothers, you can't retreat! their mother! him!"
Although his leg hurt to death, his mind was clearer than ever. He remembered the words of the young man who had slipped out of Blackwater a few nights. He was drunk to death, but he remembered what the young man said very clearly.
"Just wait, be patient, and do what each other has to do. What you should do is to wait for the notice from the border gate and then go home and bring the purchased materials back to Qinshan Kingdom. What is the need to be disappointed? You must continue to trust our country, everything you have done is also contributing to the Qinshan country! In the end, you will definitely wait for the return!"
And now, the problem before them is clear. Isn't what they should do to stop these barbarians? Born as a native of Qinshan, they should do their best to do the country's work. He was really unwilling to let them go like this! He hoped that he would be able to raise his head and walk into the territory and go home with his head held high!
The leader of the nobles of the Hades Kingdom sneered, but he was not in a hurry to use a secret weapon against him again.
"Brothers, these are barbarians who are inferior to brutes! So far, there is no reason to attack our Qinshan Kingdom on a large scale? You haven't forgotten? Why do they look down on us? We can only live in a brothel in a tobacco house, we can only spend the night in a fucking temple, and we can't eat and drink worse than pigs. And that day, those prisoners of war of Qinshan Kingdom at the gate of the city, don't tell me that you didn't see it... Can't let them go anyway!"
As soon as the words fell, several of the grooms fell silent. The leader of the other party then whispered something to a man behind him. The man nodded, and several of the other men assumed defensive postures.
And at this moment, a series of hurried footsteps broke the peace. I saw that the man surnamed Liu behind Zhang Banlei had already slipped in front of the horse team while people were not paying attention, and when everyone was silent, he quickly rode a horse, waved the horse whip vigorously, and ran in the direction of Blackwater City.
Seeing this, the chatter immediately became anxious, and shouted loudly, "Lao Liu, what are you doing! Are you a man? You dare to run away!"
Everyone present was still a little stunned, and when they heard him roar like this, the determination of the horsemen who had just been lifted was half colder. Only the leader of the Stygian Ze Country frowned, and said another word to the person behind him, and the man hurriedly walked towards the front of the horse team, and the horsemen who blocked in front of him were shocked, and subconsciously took two steps back.
"Stop him! Stop him! Zhang Banlei, you can say something!" The chatter went crazy, ripped off the thistle that was still stuck in his thigh, and threw it at the person led by the other party. I only heard a crisp sound, and the hidden weapon was bounced back by the opponent's sword, and it flew back at a very fast speed, this time stabbing into the other thigh of the chatterbox.
"Ah......" "Get out of here!"
The barbarian who had been blocked pointed his sword at the horsemen who had stopped in front of him, and although they also had hatchets in their hands, their cowardice had risen to the point that they almost retreated.
Zhang Banlei glanced back at his brother, let out a long sigh, and then roared in a loud voice, "Brothers, stop them! Not for anything else, the surname Zheng has already fled, and we can't afford to go back like this! Unless, stop these people, and wait for the border pass to hear the movement!"
"If we just let them go, we will have to take the blame for the surname Zheng. If the guests of Zhang's house can't go home, we will become traitors in other people's mouths. So, even if they die here, they have to be stopped!" Zhang Banlei's words woke up all the hesitant grooms like an initiation. They finally saw the situation clearly, and now they didn't stop them and entered the city, the black cauldron that Captain Zheng tried to make them carry was really a certainty, and they couldn't argue!
"Stop them, stay safe, don't let them run away, just wait for help!" shouted as he pressed his legs with both hands and shouted as relieved as he saw the determined look on his companion's face.
The leader of the Underworld Nation silently glanced at the people behind him, and turned his head, his eyes full of murderous intent. He shouted, "Spread out and run! Take a few with you! Don't be dragged back! Death to those who stand in my way!"
"Stop them!"
A scuffle broke out immediately. There were nine nobles in the country of Hades, and there were fifteen horsemen, three of whom ran away, and there were twelve, but the advantage in numbers didn't make much difference. Under the order of the leader of the nine nobles of the Underworld, they scattered and rushed away, each with a weapon in his hand. The horsemen, who only had hatchets in their hands, stopped each other in three directions.
The horsemen know a very good truth, if they fight martial arts, they are definitely not the opponents of the other party, a noble son who has practiced martial arts since childhood. The only way to delay time is to fight for your life, relying on brute force, and the target of each knife is the opponent's vital point, regardless of your own death. Everyone was furious at the thought of how the surnamed Zheng had deceived them during this time, and then tried to smash a huge black cauldron on them.
What's more, the other party was a barbarian who killed a thousand knives, and he also tried to sneak into the Qinshan Kingdom. Anger led them to make the most correct strategy, albeit dangerous.
The nine barbarian nobles also didn't expect that the other party would fight as if they were not dying. What made it even more troublesome for them was that the battlefield between the two sides had expanded to a long convoy of horses. The other party will often surround one with two or three people, and their people want to come to relieve the siege, and they quickly disperse, and only by luck can they slash the other party twice, but the accomplice who was surrounded also took a few stabs from the other party. The hateful thing is that the other side of the despicable villain knows that their time is short, and when their people are surrounded and protect the vital points, they stab them in the legs, and then scatter and flee, each standing at a point on the periphery, and continue to surround them.
The leader is fighting with Zhang Banlei. Zhang Banlei once practiced simple martial arts, but he still had a headache in the face of the other party. After a few moves, both arms were injured. After the opponent's first wave of breakthrough was unsuccessful, they again surrounded each other in a larger area. The two brothers stood by his side, and Zhang Banlei was finally relieved.
Seeing this, the person led by the other party sighed deeply. The groom was almost all wounded, and one or two of his arms were seriously wounded, but he could still tremble and hold the hatchet, and none of them flinched. On his side, one of them was already made to lie down by the other party's vicious tactics, and his legs were injured and he couldn't stand up. The man couldn't lift his leg at all, and there was fear in his eyes. He knew that he had become a burden, and if he was captured by Qin Shanguo, what awaited him was an unimaginable fate.
"Childe... Childe save me..."
The leader confronted the horsemen with a calm face, and suddenly yelled, "Don't fear Lao Tzu to death! Those who stand in my way die! If they don't want to die, then kill me all so that I can leave!"
And the sound of horses' hooves was heard again. The person before, due to his early action, successfully broke out of the encirclement in the first round of melee just now, rode another horse in front of him, and was about to leave on the yellow sand.
Someone in the groom immediately wanted to move to arrest him, Zhang Banlei hurriedly shouted to stop, "Poor Kou Mo chase! Let him escape and drag this place down!"
Poor Kou Mo chased this statement, but he really choked on the arrogance of the other party. But on the other hand, the person who had already fled was galloping towards the border of Blackwater City, which made the dozen or so horsemen feel confused.
At this time, the person led by the other party pounced again like a hungry wolf, and the long sword in his hand drank blood, and came straight to Zhang Banlei. The rest of the others also rushed in all directions. It's just that the momentum is even more fierce, wielding a sword, and he doesn't care about his life anymore. They also know that if they can't rush out, they just wait for death!
In the midst of this aggravation, soon there were grooms who fell. The nobles of the Underworld Kingdom, who temporarily stood out from the encirclement, ran to the other side of the carriage and stabbed the door curtain. There were also a few noble ladies who accompanied them, hiding in the carriage and not daring to come out. When they took the people out for the time being, they found that two or three more grooms were coming around them.
The sound of swords intersecting, tearing flesh and skin, and the sound of blood dripping resounded throughout the desert. He Yue, who was still hiding in the carriage before, took in all this, counted the time, nodded silently, turned sideways, and rushed out of the carriage.
At this moment, the border gate tower, which was not far away, suddenly lit up with a sky-high fire. There seemed to be a noisy sound of soldiers' footsteps and horses' hooves coming from the border pass a mile away.
"Hurry up! Hurry up! Damn, this shit... Listen, how many can escape!"
