Chapter 240: Meritorious Service (1)
Rambo suddenly realized, a pair of eyes burst out with a strong brilliance, and he nodded again and again: "I understand what Mr. means." β
When Liang Qi came out of the main tent, it was already a full moon hanging high, he looked up at the sky, and then turned his head to look at the direction of the main camp, it was already gloomy, presumably Rambo had already rested.
He smiled contemptuously, and turned back to his tent, but only for a moment, he turned back again.
It's just that the direction he left was the camp where Wang Qi and Xu Tong were imprisoned.
There were heavy soldiers guarding outside the tent, and when they saw Liang Qi, they saluted respectfully, including the person who was in charge of the punishment before, and the man stepped forward with a flattering face: "Mr. Liang, but the Lord will let you come?" Don't worry, those two subordinates are watching, they are injured, and they can't make any trouble. β
Liang Qi glanced at him coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I know." The Lord will punish them, just to show those who have bad intentions, but now is the time to use people, you send this medicine, take it on time, I am afraid that it will be useful to them later. β
The man hurriedly took it and said, "My subordinates know, my subordinates will definitely do it, please rest assured." β
Liang Qi hummed with satisfaction, and said: "Don't make a noise about this matter, so as not to spoil the hard work of the main general, do you know?" β
The man nodded hurriedly and said, "You can rest assured." β
Liang Qi turned his head and left with satisfaction, and in the next few days, without Xu Tong and Wang Qi's stopping, everything went very smoothly.
Rambo was in high spirits, just thinking that he could take the city in one fell swoop, and Liang Qi also ran before and after, making suggestions.
It seemed that everyone had forgotten that there were still two lieutenants in custody, and on this day, Wang Qi heard a commotion outside, he poked his head out and asked, "What happened?" β
Although the guards disdained it, because of Liang Qi's words that day, they also knew that the people in front of them had better not offend, so they said bluntly: "Today, the Lord is going to transfer troops to capture another city. β
Xu Tong frowned tightly, looked at the sky again, and said, "Why did you choose today?" β
The man looked up at the sky, it was gloomy and a little terrible, he was afraid that it was going to rain, he was puzzled, "What's the matter for a few days?" Okay, I advise the two of you to have a good life and recuperate, and don't worry about the rest of the things, you really can't be yourself or a deputy general? β
Wang Qi and Xu Tong were blocked from breathing, Wang Qi just wanted to get angry, but was stopped by Xu Tong, Xu Tong shook his head at him, and politely said to the guard: "If you can, please also help me pass a word to Lord Lan, just say that this weather, I think it is going to rain, once it rains, the mountain road must be slippery, which is extremely unfavorable to the march, even if it is to attack, please choose another time." β
The man was very impatient with Xu Tong's words, waved his hand and said, "Okay, I will definitely say it when I have the chance." β
As he spoke, he slammed the door shut, Wang Qi hammered the ground hard, and said in a deep voice: "What does this Rambo meanββ"
He turned his head to look at Xu Tong, only to see Xu Tong's eyes dark, he didn't know what he was thinking, he pushed Xu Tong suspiciously and said, "I said, what do you want." β
Xu Tongdao: "I'm afraid what I'm worried about is going to happen." β
Wang Qi couldn't help but say, "What's the matter?" β
Xu Tong looked at the sky outside and said: "Rambo is in a hurry for quick success, he only thinks about making meritorious contributions as soon as possible, and does not care about human life, but now it seems that he is afraid that he is going to attack hard." β
Wang Qi only felt that there was a chill in his heart when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say, "Then what should I do-"
He got up in a panic, and accidentally touched the wounds on his body, the medicine on their bodies was sent by Liang Qi, although the effect was wonderful, but because the time was still short, it was not completely healed.
However, there is no problem in action, Xu Tong saw his grinning teeth, and couldn't help but say a little funny: "Okay, the matter has come to this, we can't do anything, and now I still hope that he can win." β
The noise outside was louder and quieter, and I thought it was already setting off with people.
But half an hour later, the sound of a fight was heard outside, Xu Tong and Wang Qi glanced at each other, and couldn't help but be alert.
But with just a few muffled snorts, he regained his calm, Xu Tong held his breath and said, "Be careful, the martial arts of the people who come are not weak." β
Although Wang Qi is a little arrogant on weekdays, but at this time, he naturally became serious, and he guessed: "Could it be that Rambo sent someone to kill us?" β
Xu Tong frowned, he also thought so, but in the next second, he overturned his guess, Rambo must have already left with his troops at this time, and there was no reason to attack them at this time.
Just as he was thinking, he saw a figure dressed in black appear in front of the two, the man wrapped himself very tightly, just a pair of eyes, exuding a shocking cold light, he threw a key in front of the two, without saying anything, and turned away.
Such a strange behavior made Xu Tong, a person who has always claimed to be smart, also the second monk Zhang's head puzzled, he couldn't help but take a step forward and said, "Hey, who are you?" β
But he didn't want that person to stop walking, and disappeared in front of him in an instant.
Suddenly, there was a panicked exclamation outside: "Oh no, the enemy is attacking - the enemy is attacking the city-"
Wang Qi scolded his mother and said, "What the hell is going on? β
Xu Tong hurriedly picked up the key on the ground, opened the door again, and said, "What happened, you'll know when you go out." β
When the two of them went out, they saw everyone with panic and panic on their faces, and some people ran from the direction of the city gate.
Wang Qi grabbed a soldier and asked, "What's the panic, what's going on?" β
The man looked at his young age, he was already flustered, and when he saw Wang Qi like this, he was so frightened that he almost cried, and he stammered: "Today - the main general, the main general will take two teams of men and horses to attack the city, but it has only been long since he left, and the enemy army has not known where it came from, and it has suddenly attacked, they- there are many of them, and we are not opponents at all." β
Xu Tong said coldly: "Why did you take away the two teams of people?" How many more do we have now? β
The man's heart was like ashes and said: "The lord will say that he will attack the east and west, and take away most of the men and horses, and now we only have one or two thousand people left, and the lord will say that these people are enough to defend the city." β
Xu Tong only felt that his palms were cold, and he said, "What about the enemy army?" β
The man said: "10,000 people, but I don't know if there are any follow-up reinforcements." β
Wang Qi let go of the man and said, "How can it be like this, there are only a lot of people in the wilderness, how can 10,000 people suddenly rush out?" How many people were in that city? β
Xu Tongdao: "We were fooled, someone came, passed on my order, and the whole army evacuated with grain and grass, and there must be no mistake." β
The man was stunned and looked at Xu Tong, he didn't know Xu Tong, because the two of them didn't wear face armor, and there was really no way to identify them.
Wang Qi kicked the man hard and said, "What's the daze, the Lord will not be there, we are the biggest, go quickly." β
The man suddenly came back to his senses, remembering the recent rumors in the camp about the detention of the two lieutenants, thinking that it was these two people, he seemed to have found the backbone of the master, and said, "My subordinates will go down to give orders." β
Wang Qi and Xu Tong glanced at each other, and many years of experience on the battlefield made the two very tacit understanding, and walked straight in the direction of the city gate.
On the way, seeing the orderly evacuation of the soldiers, Xu Tong put his mind at ease and said: "As long as there is no accident with the grain and grass, we will always have a chance." β
The two of them climbed the city wall, looked down, and saw that the black cavalry had pressed down to the city.
Suddenly, Xu Tong saw a familiar figure, dressed in black, who was the one who had just saved himself and Wang Qi.
He was riding a red horse, and in front of the army, a leader serving was half-sideways to follow him and say something, obviously his position was also very lofty.
Wang Qi also found out, and said suspiciously: "Why is this person here?" What purpose do they have? β
Xu Tongdao: "No matter what the purpose is, let's evacuate first, by the way, ask someone to send a signal, and the rest, wait until we withdraw safely and then discuss from the beginning." β
Wang Qi nodded, and went down, and Xu Tong followed.
At this time, under the city gate, the leader of the barbarian tribe said with a smug face: "Mr. Liang is talented, in this way, we can be regarded as cutting off their way of life, even if we lose that city?" As long as Liangcheng is in our hands, the imperial court will have no way to transport grain and grass to them, and sooner or later they will be trapped to death. β
Liang Qi hid himself behind the veil and said: "This is also thanks to the good work of the chief, so that they really think that I am a prisoner, so they will trust me." β
The leader laughed loudly and said: "It is said that the Central Plains people are scheming, this time I have seen it, hahahaha." β
There was a mocking smile on the corner of Liang Qi's lips, he counted the time and said, "Chief, it's almost time, it's time for us to enter the city." β
The leader's eyes were happy, and he obviously believed Liang Qi's words very much, and he raised the short knife in his hand high. He made an offensive gesture in the direction of Liangcheng.
At this time, Xu Tong and Wang Qi had already led people to withdraw from Liangcheng, and there was a faint thunderstorm in the sky, obviously it was going to rain, Xu Tong nodded at Wang Qi, Wang Qi sat on the horse, and pulled the signal to the sky neatly with his hands and feet.
On the other side, Rambo was hiding on the hill with his men, while the other men and horses were making a feint in the direction of the city gate.
But the expected fierce scene did not happen, the whole city was quiet, as if it was an empty city, Rambo got the news, and couldn't help but be a little suspicious, he said to the people around him: "Invite Mr. Liang over." β
The person next to him went down, and within half a cup of tea, the man came back and knelt on the ground, and said with a pale face: "The Lord-the Lord-the big thing is not good-"
