Chapter 19: The Hunt Down
"Humph! You can also break one of Liu Jinyi's arms!" Li Shaotang said very disdainfully, but before he died, the deputy general turned his eyes and looked at the knife inserted in his body, which was indeed the same as Liu Jinyi, and then he wanted to signal the remaining 400 or so people to leave quickly, but Li Shaotang inserted the knife into it again.
At this time, the more than 400 heavy crossbowmen who had just been stunned there suddenly saw that Li Shaotang had killed his boss indiscriminately, and they suddenly became restless, tense, and had the tendency to rebel.
Seeing this situation, Li Shaotang did not panic, and immediately pulled out his knife and stepped forward and said: "Vice General Xu communicated with the traitor Liu Jinyi to kill the nine clans, and dared to go to the former to be guilty of the same crime as him!"
Hearing Li Shaotang's trumped-up charges against his boss, the noise of the more than 400 people below became louder, but it only took a minute before it instantly stopped quiet, because at this time, 2,000 sword and axe men had already surrounded them.
But for some reason, Li Shaotang didn't want to kill them: "The rear army obeys the order!" Make way for the heavy crossbowmen to return to camp!"
More than 400 people did not dare to easily disobey the order for their own families, but they really couldn't guess what kind of chess Li Shaotang was taking, but now they only had the road of retreating to the camp in front of them.
After Li Shaotang watched them far away from the top of the mountain, he immediately ordered the knife and axe hand: "No matter what! We must ensure the safety of Liu Jinyi in Shangzhu Kingdom!"
When the soldiers below heard this, they immediately went into a mess.
"Dare to ask the general, do you want to disobey the emperor's order?1" An adjutant general under Li Shaotang stepped forward and asked.
Li Shaotang was stunned for a moment when asked by this, and then laughed out loud.
The lieutenant was puzzled, but his hand had quietly rested on the knife on his left waist, but before he could make a move, the head had already landed.
"I'll repeat it again, everyone must take the lead in ensuring the safety of Liu Jinyi of Shangzhu Kingdom, have you heard clearly?" Li Shaotang stood on the hill, his eyes were very sharp, looking around at the two thousand sword and axe hands under the black pressure.
"The last general will obey!" Two thousand men knelt down in turn.
"Good! Let's go!"
At this time, Liu Jinyi had already led more than 70 guards to run non-stop in the rainstorm and pouring forest for two hours, but he always felt that something was wrong, because none of the more than 60 people who stood by his side at the beginning were unknown to him, if it were not led by his original deputy general, he would never believe that the 500 people were the team he had led, and he didn't feel the familiar breath of Zeng himself.
"Everyone, stop!" Liu Jinyi sensed that there was something strange ahead, because it was surprisingly quiet in this huge rainstorm.
"General! What's going on?" A crossbow captain in the back followed closely on horseback.
"It's okay! It seems that the old man is too nervous!" Liu Jinyi glanced at the person's gesture, and was already about to draw his knife, and hurriedly gave his nine people a look to cover it up.
Those nine people have always been Liu Jinyi's family guards, and they have been with Liu Jinyi for a long time, and they immediately understood the meaning in those eyes, and quietly put their hands on the knife in their arms.
"I think so, the thirty crossbowmen will accompany me in the front, and the rest and the nine golden sword guards will walk behind, so as to make up for the shortcomings of our lack of melee combat, and the two sides can help each other!" Liu Jinyi wanted to disperse their forces.
However, the other party felt that this was in their hands, and they had been planning to break Liu Jinyi, more than 60 people attacked with heavy crossbows from a long distance, no matter how strong Liu Jinyi was in close combat, how fast he was, he would definitely die after ten rounds of rounds.
The captain of the heavy crossbow immediately gave the sixty-odd people a look, and then thirty people came out neatly.
Liu Jinyi observed carefully from the side, it stands to reason that heavy crossbowmen shouldn't have sabers?! But he didn't break it, and after the thirty people were lined up neatly, he deliberately explained to his golden sword guard: "You are all people who have followed me for more than ten years, and at the critical moment, you can't lose at all to the heavy crossbow battalion I have brought, don't lose the face of this general!"
The nine people immediately understood: "General, please rest assured, the last general will wait for the head of the person on the item to guarantee!"
"Good! Have a backbone! Let's go!" After explaining, Liu Jinyi led the thirty people to the place where there was an ambush.
