Southwest Rain (8)
The mountain road is dense, the raindrops are violently beating the dense leaves, between the white water splash and the dark and dark forest, there seems to be an invisible mirror, a red shadow comes from the opposite side of the dense forest, it seems to feel the huge pressure, the galloping carriage slowly stops on the mountain road, and the healthy horse pulling the cart swings its front hooves restlessly,
The five guard knights were distributed on both sides of the carriage, with a stern expression, and methodically stepped on the crossbow as fast as possible on the warhorse, and with the help of their feet, they violently pulled the bowstring of the crossbow with their fingers to the position of the machine spring, and exchanged their intentions for intentions, they had easily killed the first wave of ambushes arranged by the other party just now, but the second wave was obviously more powerful than the first wave,
"Brother, do you want to kill me?"
It seemed that she could feel the strong pressure brought by the red figure in the rain curtain in front of her, the beautiful woman in the black dress stopped the war horse under her crotch, looked at the front with blazing eyes, and shouted loudly to the place in front of her, her tone was euphemistic and cold, and in the cold rain, it made people even freeze their souls
"22 subordinates, plus the eldest sister, do you still think it's not enough?" As the words fell, the rain curtain in front was separated, and a red figure broke through the rain curtain from the opposite side and slowly walked over, holding a cold and shining Zhongbiya sword in his hand, and the raindrops hit the blade and dripped into the soil along the smooth sword surface, this is a black-haired and waist-length Zhongbiya man, and the two sword eyebrows are a pair of bright and terrifying eyes, which seem to be able to cut through the front like a sharp sword.
He didn't go fast, but every step was full of confidence, as if no one could escape as long as he was targeting.
"Brother, you know very well that this matter is a conspiracy from beginning to end! I didn't betray it, nor did the shepherd guard of Dongque, we just acted according to the plan of His Majesty the Emperor!" "If it weren't for us, the empire would not have been able to lure in the Gallic army in one fell swoop, let alone reverse the tide of the war in the most favorable situation, take the Seattle region that has been fighting for many years in one fell swoop, and then be able to divert the hundreds of thousands of main forces of the empire in the eastern battlefield north against the steppe people!"
"It's useless, you're just quibbling!" The corner of the mouth of the Zhongbia man on the other side twitched slightly, and he shook his head expressionlessly,
Raising the sword in his hand, the eyes of the Zhongbiya man looked like a sharp sword at the beautiful woman in palace clothes who was wet with messy hair and trembled a little slightly by the rain. Said coldly, "Dongque Incident, in addition to the 25 members of the Mu Shou family, there are also the families of the local army in Dongque, a total of 175251 people, all of whom were beheaded for the crime of rebellion, and the blood of Dongque was flowing like a river that day, and one-third of the Dongque people were executed because of this incident.
"So even if you say it is reasonable, what can you do? Tens of thousands of lives are there. The military needs an explanation, His Majesty the Emperor needs an explanation, and the hundreds of thousands of wronged souls need an explanation, and no one will admit what you said. It was the emperor who exchanged the blood of the Dongque people for the opportunity for the empire to withdraw its hand from the mudflat-like eastern battlefield" The Zhongbia man's voice stopped, glanced at his sister who was slightly pale, and said slowly, "They sent me. It's because they know that we can only have one person alive and you die. I and the rest of the family can live, if I die, you may be able to continue to live like an ant, but the next person who appears in front of you may be your father, mother, or your favorite little nephew, they will send out the family members one by one, regardless of men, women and children, you know their methods, compared to direct execution, let them die one by one at your hands, is the most terrible punishment, do you have to kill all the family members before you are willing?"
Listening to the words on the other side, the face of the beautiful woman in the palace costume looked extremely pale, she still remembered that this method of punishing the traitor was submitted by herself as a very proud proposal, so she also got a reward from the emperor, but she didn't expect that she would also suffer such a "torture" day "Quickly, immediately protect the master and withdraw immediately!"
A guard cavalry shouted loudly, raised the cavalry long sword in his hand and fiercely met the sword light that stabbed in, the sword light shuttled through, and he was about to be blocked by the fierce sword momentum of this guard cavalry, but suddenly made a strange pause in mid-air, and then went sideways, wonderfully avoiding the long sword of the cavalry guard,
The rising sword light suddenly turned into a sharp homeopathic slash!
The sword body collided, and the powerful sword sank forward, causing the long sword of the escort cavalry to deviate, and the sword light flew up against the sword blade of the escort cavalry, grazing the jaw of the escort cavalry, leaving a faint blood stain, and countless blood burst out from this blood stain! The cavalryman's left hand covered his neck, and blood overflowed wildly from his fingers.
His eyes widened angrily, his body slowly fell forward, until the moment of death, he still did not see the traces of the sword light clearly, the swordsmanship of the Zhongbiya man was extremely terrifying, with the help of light steps, between several cavalry, in front, behind, the trajectory was unpredictable, it was impossible to capture, although riding on the war horse, several cavalry guards were completely suppressed below, the suppressed muffled hum sounded from time to time in the colliding metal sound, the expression gradually appeared sad and angry, in the depressed and tragic atmosphere, two soft sounds, the bodies of the two escort cavalry fell from the war horse to the ground without breath,
Blood fell in the air mixed with raindrops, the escort cavalry finally gave up the inconvenient to move the war horse, changed the horse battle to foot combat, the cavalry expressions were cold and calm, holding the shield in one hand, holding the slender hilt of the sword in the other, standing in the dripping rain, forming a strict character, using a tall shield to protect the palace dress behind the beautiful woman, found that several swords were blocked by the shield of the cavalry guard, and the figure of the Zhongbia man finally stopped,
Standing in the rain, the Zhongbian man looked coldly at the woman who was desperately protected by the bloodied knight, "As a traitor, there is only one way to die, you know this very well! If you can still have your own consciousness, then you don't need to kill so many people!" The heavy male voice revealed a trace of compassion in the rain curtain.
"I really wanted to die like this, but now I know that I have hundreds of thousands of grievances and resentful souls on my back, so I can't die so lightly!"
The beautiful woman in the palace costume looked at the Zhongbian man deadly, stretched out her right hand, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, sneered unexpectedly, stood up staggeringly, and took a deep breath of cold air. The rain had already wet the palace clothes on her body, revealing a seductive and graceful figure spurting blood, but at this moment, no one would pay attention to this, and the terrifying blood on her face was more like Shura crawling out of hell. "Since it's so painful to live, why don't I give you a ride!"
At this moment, the Zhongbiya man wearing a strange red armor on the opposite side finally moved, only to see his body slightly forward, his explosive body jumped high, and his feet stepped heavily on a tree pole next to him. With the help of the reaction force, the sword light whistled and fell! The sword shadow like a shuttle and lightning was still in the raindrops flying in the sky one moment ago, and the next moment it came to the front of the guard knight who was riding on a war horse.
Almost completely subconsciously, the guard knight raised the cavalry shield in his hand
"Dangchang"
A low hum turned into a roar of wind and thunder in the blink of an eye, and the knight's body shook, and the shield in his hand was unexpectedly opened by a sword. An extremely fast sword passed past the cavalry, and the power of the sword light burst out, directly shattering the leaves within a few feet of the surrounding trees, like silky broken leaves. Scattered by the wind and rain, the bright sword light dragged into a straight line, and at the end of the line was the palace beauty who had not yet fully reflected from the abnormality!
"Master!"
At the critical moment, Richie, the loyal servant beside the palace beauty, pushed away the almost sluggish palace beauty. The sword was like lightning, piercing Richie's chest without hindrance, and he watched as the red blood shot along the blade. A series of strength exploded in the body of the guard leader Richie, and the other guard cavalry on the side reacted, "Kill!" A series of dense long swords sounded continuously, with a momentum and determination that there was no return, accompanied by the almost tragic shouts of several guard cavalrymen, the long sword cut through the air sharply, forming a densely woven sword net, and tightly protected the beautiful woman in palace clothes.
The man in Zhongbiya was a little stunned for Richie's protector, but it was only a short pause, the long sword stained with blood in his hand had been pulled out of Richie's chest without hesitation, and the sword light was like lightning and attacked the palace beauties again, the guards were shocked, with despair in their eyes, the enemy was too strong, and it exceeded the maximum capacity they could bear,
"Boom"
The sword light seemed to have been hit by something, and it slammed in the air, and the Zhongbiya man looked at it with a shocked face, and shot through a white trembling short arrow tail on his right arm holding the sword, a sword that was almost fatal, because of this pause and deviation, it almost stuck to the pretty face of the beautiful woman in palace clothes, and brought out a terrible blood mark on the white face,
"Who are you?"
The Zhongbiya man held his injured hand, gritted his teeth in pain, looked around with vicious eyes, his body stiffened, his face showed a look of horror, he couldn't speak anymore, I don't know when, in the nearby rain curtain, a whole row of cavalry wearing black armor appeared, dense, unable to count, like a demon god army descending in the night,
These cavalrymen are covered with hideous face armor, with a long-handled scimitar with a strange arc on their waists, and slowly ride their horses up in the rain curtain, the unique halo of black armor on their bodies is like dyed with a faint mysterious luster in the white rain curtain, each black-armored cavalry holds a crossbow arrow in his hand, and the front is a young man riding on a black horse, with a slightly bloated figure, very casually threw the crossbow of a peerless master just now to the guards next to him, the young man's eyes stopped on the Zhongbian man and the beautiful woman in palace clothes, and said coldly" Shouldn't you take into account the feelings of your host?"
The palace beauty looked at the familiar face of the young man, her body trembled slightly, almost unbelievably looking, her eyes almost burst out, as the head of Gaul in the southwest region, she had looked at this face countless times, although it was just a picture, but there was absolutely no possibility of admitting mistakes, the corner of the other party's mouth with a sly smile, so that the palace beauty felt a chill rising from her heart, in front of this peerless overlord who rose like a hurricane, she had a feeling that all the secrets were seen through. "I don't care who you are, whoever stands in my way will die!" The Zhongbian man only frowned slightly at the name of Vekia Falcon, and said hoarsely Because he was too hard, the arm pierced by the arrow made a bone cracking sound, and the Zhongbia man grinned in pain, and the blood-stained hilt of the sword finally fell from the five fingers that were released into the quagmire on the ground, and the Zhongbia man tried to bend down and pick it up: Bang" A white light whistled across his cheek and slammed into the ground beneath his feet, and the black-armored cavalry around him neatly straightened their assault crossbows. At the front end was a cold and shining arrow, "If I were you, I would never be strong, even if I begged for death, I shouldn't choose such a miserable appearance" The fat man looked at him, tilted his head and said disdainfully, "In terms of martial arts alone, you may not be bad, but one person can't defeat the army, just like in front of you, as long as you give an order." I can guarantee that before your fingers touch the hilt of the sword, my men will shoot you directly through as a hedgehog! Actually, I also heard it just now, since it is two brothers and sisters, why do you still want to die like this! Anyway, they are all certain to die, why don't you join hands and let the person who wants you die die first! Or, you still have a chance to live!"
"You!"
The sluggish eyes of the Zhongbian man lit up for a moment, then he shook his head again, and said categorically, "It's useless, I'm not here alone this time." If they find out that I didn't return within the allotted time, they will report my defection to the Order, and at that point, the entire family will be executed!"
"You mean the Central Bias who entered Leyard!"
The corner of the fat man's mouth smiled slightly. I felt that this Zhongbian man's swordsmanship was terrifying, how could there be such a big difference in IQ, and said, "Actually, this is not difficult, this is the Falcon Empire." With just one order, I can arrest all those Central Bibians, so that their news cannot be transmitted back to Central Bia. Although it is only a temporary solution, it can at least be delayed for a while, which is much better than direct brother and sister cannibalism"
The Chinese man was obviously hesitating, and said with certainty, "I know them too well, and this time it was revealed by the Gallic Intelligence Department, and if they find that something is wrong here, they will immediately send new people, and we will not be able to hide it at that time!"
"Since that's the case, there's only one way!" the fat man's eyes rolled, and he looked at the two bitter brothers and sisters, especially the beautiful woman in the palace clothes who were soaked in clothes, and said slowly. Since the Central Beians want you to die, it is better to die once, as the head of the Gallic Empire in the southwest region, it should be considered a very normal thing to be arrested and executed after the contact point was cracked, and when the time comes, find someone to replace it, the flesh and blood are blurred, who can see it, this matter may be very difficult for you, but for me, it is really not difficult at all!"
"This is a good solution!" This time, even the Central Biya man nodded in agreement, he held the injured hand, leaned his back against the trunk of the tree, and glanced at his sister who was also a wolf bèi with a complicated gaze, this is indeed the best solution, but he couldn't figure out a little, as the enemy of his sister, why should the Falcon Empire help him like this
"Your Majesty is willing to help us like this, I'm afraid that the conditions required are not low, right?" The beautiful woman in the palace costume held her head high, her black hair wet by the rain stuck to her beautiful face, there was a poignant feeling, obviously much more vigilant, and her voice trembled and said, "If Your Majesty is trying to make me betray the Gauls, then unfortunately, I can't do it, because I am on the upper line of Gaul, and he is a very ruthless guy, he definitely has enough means to make my life worse than death, and he has a part of the lives of my subordinates in his hands!"
"Hehe, you mean Philep, the special intelligence officer of the Gallic Emperor!" the fat man smiled disappreciatively on the horse, and took out a small pillar with a text from his waist with his right hand, and with a wave of his arm, the small pillar tube crossed an arc in the air and landed in front of the beautiful woman in the palace costume. I just got the information, this intelligence officer is not in Kyoto, I believe they would like to see this special intelligence officer have a problem with you compared to the hostility of the Gallic intelligence department, don't look at me with such a frightened gaze, our intelligence is no worse than yours in Gallic Kyoto!"
"Then what do you want us to do?" The palace costume beauty asked with some surprise, "Naturally, you are doing your old job, sending information!, what else can you do!" The fat man shrugged his shoulders, clicked a small wooden tube with his hand, and then looked at the palace costume beauty with a confused face, and said, "In addition to your escape, you can only send this information out through the network of the Gallic Intelligence Department, and then you will be arrested in the southwest capital, and then you will be sentenced to behead......ing! It's all solved!" "This is a false piece of information!" The beautiful woman in the palace costume looked at the small wooden tube in front of her in shock, and her body trembled slightly, "No, it's true!" The fat man waved his hand and sneered. As I said, this information will be sent out through the network of the Gallic Intelligence Department, and the Gallic Intelligence Department will naturally take this information for itself, and in this information, the Gallic Intelligence Department will know two things, the first is the real reason why the special intelligence officer Philipp left Kyoto, and the second is that the reason for the withdrawal of my Falcon army is just to rest, as for the time, it is about two months, that's all!"
"Rest!" The beautiful woman in the palace costume was stunned, the Gaul side urged many times for this matter, and even issued a strict order, but no one expected that the emperor of the Falcon Empire, who was the decision-maker, would face the frank rest...... Who believes this! The beautiful woman in the palace costume had all kinds of looks on her face, very exciting, as if she had sensed something, thinking of the empire's victorious march in the north, her body trembled slightly,
Once the 2-month break is transmitted back to Gallic Kyoto, the Gauls will inevitably take this opportunity to attack the north with all their might, and the war with the Slavs will show a full-scale explosion...... Two months later, the exhausted Gauls, what to resist after two months of recuperation, the people who raised strong horses and strong falcons! (To be continued......
