Chapter 274: Capture the Horse
Chapter 274
Song Nan saw Zhengde leaving, his heart was a little settled, but the Tartar soldiers quickly divided more than ten horsemen to chase, they left an ambush to capture or slaughter the little emperor of the Ming Dynasty, how can Zhengde escape calmly, the Ming army reinforcements are miles away, with the riding skills of the Tartar cavalry, they will be able to capture Zhengde before he escapes.
Although Song Nan was anxious, he couldn't do anything, because his more than ten people had been besieged by the remaining Tartars, and among the more than ten people around him, three were wounded, two women, and Liu Jin, who was powerless, and only eight guards still had the strength to fight, and in the face of dozens of Tartar soldiers, the shape was already extremely critical.
"Boom, boom" The fire gun spewed flames, breaking the skin of several Tartars, and the Tartars did not dare to rush up to the power of the fire gun for the time being, but Song Nan understood that this situation would not last long, because the Tartars would soon find that the fire gun was about to become scrap metal and the ammunition was about to run out.
"How much ammo is left?" Song Nan gritted his teeth and asked.
"Three."
"Two pieces"
"The subordinates are gone."
The guards replied, checking their ammunition.
Song Nan said with a gloomy face: "Evenize each other, ensure that each person has at least one shot, but you are not allowed to shoot indiscriminately until you have to, brothers, the time has come to fight the knife." ”
Everyone silently loaded the ammunition, inserted the fire gun into their waists, and drew the long knives at their waists one after another. The Tartar soldiers were clamoring for a while, and when they saw the Ming soldiers draw their blades, they knew that they could no longer use the powerful firearms, so they shouted and gathered around.
Song Nan looked at the Tartar soldiers who were gradually approaching, his face was calm, and he shouted in a low voice: "Brothers, you can't fight hard, you must wait for the opportunity to take the horse and send the princess out of danger, everyone, the time has come to show your true ability, everyone remember, you would rather die in battle, don't be a prisoner." ”
The guards nodded silently, and Song Nan turned his head to Princess Kangning and Dai Su'er beside him and whispered: "Don't be afraid, follow me closely, Su'er will help the princess, and we will definitely be able to rush out." ”
Dai Su'er bit her lip and nodded, and reached under Zhu Xiufu's armpit to help, Zhu Xiufu's face was pale, and she only reached out to pull Song Nan's placket and didn't let go.
Liu Jin said tremblingly: "Lord Song, don't leave our family." ”
Song Nan stretched out his foot and picked up a steel knife on the ground and handed it to Liu Jin and said, "Father-in-law Liu, I really don't have time to take care of you, so let's settle down." ”
Liu Jin held the heavy steel knife and wanted to cry without tears, he couldn't blame Song Nan for not caring whether he lived or died, the current situation was difficult for everyone to protect themselves, not to mention that Song Nan still had to protect the princess, blame himself for being too stupid, he didn't listen to Song Nan's words and insisted on taking the emperor up and down the beacon tower, and was ambushed by the Tartars, I am afraid that this life will be sent here nine times out of ten today.
"Father-in-law, don't panic, the lowly will take care of you, follow behind the lowly job." Someone whispered in his ear.
Liu Jin turned around with joy, and an officer with a knife stood beside him respectfully, looking at him with his hands.
"Okay, if you protect our family from danger, our family will be rewarded. What is your name. Liu Jin said happily.
The officer with the knife smiled and said, "Humble Qian Ning." ”
Liu Jin was about to say a few words of encouragement, when he heard Song Nan shouting: "Kill!" ”
With this shout, all the relatives and guards rushed forward bravely, fighting with the oncoming Tartar soldiers, the number of people was inferior, the body was inferior, and the morale was inferior, and the two sides fought for a while, Song Nan felt the pressure, and these dozen or so people couldn't rush out at all.
After struggling to cut down the two Tartar soldiers, Song Nan suddenly found that Dai Su'er and Princess Kang Ning behind him had disappeared, Song Nan looked back, only to see that Princess Kang Ning and Dai Su Er had fallen behind him, one of the two guards who were protecting the flanks had fallen in a pool of blood, and the other was desperately resisting with several knives.
Song Nan's eyes were split, and he slashed a sneak attack Tartar soldier with his backhand, quickly turned around and rushed over to the rescue, and a Tartar on the left and right sides rushed forward with a knife, so entangled that Song Nan couldn't get out.
Dai Suer and Zhu Xiufu stood there at a loss between the swords and swords, their eyes were full of despair, they heard a scream, and one of the guards who was struggling to support them fell to the side with a knife, and when they fell, the body hit Zhu Xiufu's legs, Zhu Xiufu fell to the ground at once, Dai Suer hurried to help her, and the three Tartars had already raised their knives and rushed up to cut them.
Song Nan's eyes erupted with fire, and he roared loudly: "Su'er, fire gun, fire gun." ”
Dai Su'er looked confused, and suddenly understood, stretched out his hand to grope around the waist of the dead guard, and the moment the Tartar blade reached his body, he heard a loud bang, and after the smoke and dust, the three Tartars staggered and rushed to the princess and Dai Su'er with blood all over their bodies.
Dai Su'er closed her eyes tightly, her face was scorched, her hair was smoky, and her hand holding the fire gun was shaking.
Song Nan was overjoyed, and the five guards struggled to come to the rescue, and together they hacked to death the two entangled Tartar soldiers, Song Nan shouted: "Protect the princess and retreat." ”
The six of them rose up and forced the Tartar to return to the princess and Dai Su'er to form a small circle to defend, and Song Nan praised loudly: "Good Su'er, well done." ”
Dai Su'er opened her eyes and said in a trembling voice, "I...... I...... Killed. ”
Song Nan stretched out his hand and pulled out the fire hammer from the waist of another fallen guard, picked up the two of them one by one and put them on his shoulders, roared angrily and led everyone back to the edge of the beacon tower.
Song Nan looked at the Tartars who were swarming up and said to the five guards around him: "Brothers, I am afraid that it will be difficult to be good today, there is nothing to be afraid of, but I want to try to get a horse to send the princess out, you are here to protect the princess, I will come when I go." ”
One of the guards said, "My lord, I'll go." ”
Song Nan shouted: "Hugh has to argue." ”
Zhu Xiufu hugged Song Nan's neck and said, "Song Nan, don't go, don't go." ”
Song Nan said: "Don't be afraid, princess, stay here obediently, otherwise we will all die here." ”
Zhu Xiufu shouted: "What if you die, what will we do? ”
Song Nan smiled: "If you can't escape, let's see you at the spring." ”
Dai Su'er said: "You go, there is still an ammunition in the firecracker, and the slave family and the princess will use it as a last resort." ”
Song Nan reached out and touched her face and nodded, then turned around and shouted, "Fire Gun covers me." ”
The five guards pulled out their firearms and shot indiscriminately, and the approaching dozen or so Tartar soldiers flew on the ground, and the guards were all out of firearms and ammunition, and at the moment when the smoke rose, Song Nan bowed out like a cheetah, he had already seen the direction, and the two Tartar officers who rode and commanded thirty paces away from the left were the targets.
The passage that was blasted out by the fire was full of corpses, and the Tartars who were not hit also lay on the ground to dodge, Song Nan stepped on the corpses and blood and rushed forward, and when the Tartar soldiers found that someone had stepped on their bodies, Song Nan had already arrived behind them.
The two Tartar officers coughed loudly on their horses, shouting loudly and ordering the soldiers on the ground to get up, and suddenly saw Song Nan rushing to the ground, an officer reacted quickly, and stabbed the spear in his hand, Song Nan fell to the ground and slid down, his body slipped under the horse's belly, and the knife in his hand was wiped on the officer's ankle, and blood suddenly burst out.
The officer roared loudly, bent down and leaned down, the spear head swept under the horse's belly, Song Nan's body slid out from the other side, and he stood up and swung his knife and stabbed the Tartar officer in the ribs of the waist, and the Tartar officer screamed, and his body fell into the dust.
Song Nan has succeeded in the blink of an eye, and the martial arts that have been practiced hard since the poisoning have finally shown their power, of course, if it is Ye Fanggu to deal with this Tartar officer, the moment the Tartar officer stabs with a spear, with Ye Fanggu's kung fu, he will definitely fly and light the gun to shine on the door is a knife, unlike Song Nan, who rolled from the ground to the horse's belly, making a body of blood and dust.
Song Nan turned over on the horse's back, lifted the reins and rushed towards another Tartar officer, the Tartar officer also screamed and stabbed the horse with a spear, Song Nan took out the fire gun on his waist and aimed, the Tartar officer was shocked, and he dodged in the saddle like a tumbler, Song Nan sneered, pulled the trigger ruthlessly, and smashed the waist and abdomen of the Tartar officer, no matter how he shook back and forth, left and right, but the waist and abdomen could not be moved.
Song Nan leaned over and grabbed the reins of the other horse in his hand, urged the horses, and forced the Tartar soldiers who rushed up to the congestion to retreat, galloped to the beacon tower, and shouted: "The princess gets on the horse." ”
Zhu Xiufu was surprised and delighted, got up and stretched out her hand, Song Nan grabbed her wrist and lifted her, and then lifted her up behind her and sat down, Dai Suer stood on the ground at a loss, Song Nan stretched out her hand and said, "What are you waiting for?" ”
Dai Su'er was overjoyed and hurriedly grabbed Song Nan's arm, and Song Nan lifted her fluttering body to her chest as soon as she used force; Song Nan threw the reins of the other horse on the ground and said: "Brothers, I have to send the princess out of danger, but I don't know if I can get out alive, there is only one horse here, leaving and rushing out are in the same danger, who goes and who stays you can discuss it yourself." ”
Several guards shouted, "Hurry up, my lord, I don't have to worry about it." ”
Song Nan nodded, in fact, the five guards were not burdensome but easy to get out, and rushing out to attract the Tartars to chase after them might give the five people a chance to withdraw to the peak, although there was no firearm to defend the peak, but the chance of survival would still be greatly increased, and at this time, the mother-in-law and mother-in-law were useless.
Song Nan turned his horse's head, and the Tartar soldiers had already gathered dozens of steps away, they obviously knew that they were going to break through with important people, so they were not in a hurry to attack, and they all raised their swords and stared.
Song Nan was about to rush out of the horse, and suddenly heard the sound of the wind around him, a figure flew up from the pile of dead bodies on the ground, and rushed on the back of another horse with vigorous skills, and the guards were stunned, and the man on the horseback reached out and pulled the body of another 'resurrected' on the ground onto the horse, and urged the horse to gallop away without saying a word.
Everyone was stunned, and someone recognized the two of them immediately, and scolded angrily: "It's Qian Ning and Liu Gonggong, the official with the knife, damn it, the two of them pretended to be dead and took our horses." ”
Song Nan was furious, but he was helpless, the despicability of human nature at the moment of life and death can be seen, and he will settle accounts with them after escaping, but listening to the sound of swords, this Qian Ning is obviously good at martial arts, and the Tartar soldiers can't stop him at all, and after putting down several Tartar soldiers, he has already rushed out dozens of steps away. The two of them rushed like this, which was equivalent to giving themselves a way, and the opportunity could not be missed, Song Nan no longer hesitated, and urged the horse to shoot out.
