Chapter 653: Come Home With Me
As the sun set, Shen Xu walked out of the earthen wall with a team of fifty people.
Not far away, the army of Chen Kingdom was eyeing each other.
The two sides are separated by an open space.
In the clearing, more than 20 prisoners of the Crusade Army still maintained their previous kneeling position.
They noticed footsteps approaching, raised their heads with difficulty, and couldn't help but widen their eyes when they saw that it was Shen Xu.
Someone made a hoarse voice: "Lord Shizi, go quickly." ”
These words touched Shen Xu.
He looked at the wounded soldiers in front of him, and it was clear that they themselves were dying, but they still wanted to let him go quickly.
If he was willing to take the risk of taking this trip because he didn't want to disappoint Tang Guixi before, then now, he hopes to bring these soldiers back.
Shen Xu took out a knife from his sleeve and helped them cut the ropes on their bodies.
"Get up and come home with me."
When they heard the word "home", their eyes turned red all of a sudden.
After so much inhuman torture, returning home has become an unattainable wish in their hearts.
And at this time, the wish is about to come true.
The soldiers of the Chen army quickly approached with their shields in hand.
They surrounded Shen Xu and the captives.
Shen Xu immediately stood up straight and asked, "Didn't you promise to exchange prisoners with us?" I have brought your men here, and you should let me bring ours back! ”
A moment later, a chariot slowly approached.
On the chariot stood a staff member who looked like a literati.
He asked in the official dialect of Dayan, which is not very fluent.
"What about our people?"
Shen Xu has been behind him: "It's all here!" ”
The staff made a look, and immediately Chen Bing stepped forward to check.
They first brushed the hair of the three captives standing at the front, carefully identified them, and looked a little familiar, and then interrogated each other's identities in Chenguo.
The three of them answered each other fluently, and there were no questions.
They also wanted to check other captives.
Shen Xu urged impatiently.
"Can you hurry up? We're still in a hurry to go back! ”
The staff was originally looking at the captives, but when they heard this, they looked at Shen Xu and asked unhurriedly.
"Our marshal named King Min to make a deal, why don't you see King Min?"
Shen Xu replied loudly: "I am the only son of King Min and the future heir of King Min, and today I have come to make a deal with you on behalf of my father." ”
The staff said: "The prince is really filial piety, but it's a pity that our marshal wants to see King Min, and if you fail to fulfill the agreement as required, we will naturally not be able to trade with you." ”
With that, he made a gesture.
Immediately, Chen Bing stepped forward and prepared to catch Shen Xu.
Shen Xu held the knife in front of him to make a defensive gesture, and he asked with a fierce expression.
"What are you doing here?"
The staff said with a smile: "Since the prince has already come, you can't come in vain, our boss wants to invite you to a glass of wine, and also ask the prince to enjoy face." ”
Shen Xu naturally knew that the other party must be uneasy and kind.
He snorted angrily.
"Just with you lowly bandits, how can you deserve to drink with this son?!"
The smile on the staff's face disappeared, and his expression sank: "Lord Shizi, listen to my advice, don't toast and don't eat and drink." ”
Shen Xu said sharply: "If you know each other, let us go immediately!" ”
The staff looked at him coldly.
"Let me tell you the truth, not only you, but all the captives you brought with you must stay today.
After that, we will kill all the prisoners of the Crusade Army, and not a single one will be left! ”
The last four words, he could slow down his speech, revealing a strong malice.
Shen Xu laughed angrily: "It turns out that you didn't plan to fulfill the agreement from the beginning, and you are worthy of the jackals, tigers and leopards from the Chen Kingdom, all of whom are a group of brutes who don't understand etiquette and don't know how to be honest!" ”
The staff didn't say anything more, and directly ordered the action.
When the Chen soldiers rushed towards Shen Xu, the archers hiding behind the earthen wall loosened their bowstrings one after another, and countless arrows shot towards the Chen soldiers.
The soldiers hurriedly raised their shields in front of them.
Disguised as a captive of the Chenbing Soldiers, Xiao Ti and more than forty other eagle guards seized the opportunity to pull out the saber hidden under the hem of their clothes.
Among them, Xiao Ti exerted light skills and jumped up, stepped on the shoulders of the person in front of him, flew ahead with his strength, and pointed to the life gate of the staff without a return knife in his hand!
The staff looked horrified, hurriedly dodged back, and shouted: "Save me!" ”
However, before the Chen soldiers around him could react, he had already been stabbed through the chest by Xiao Ti.
The scene suddenly descended into chaos.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the shadow guards picked up the Crusade captives and quickly retreated in the direction of the earthen wall.
On the sentry tower, Tang Guixi saw this scene and ordered loudly.
"Archers cover them!"
The archers behind the earthen wall drew their bows and arrows again, and kept shooting arrows, forcing back those who wanted to catch up.
Shen Xu retreated with the shadow guards.
But before he could run far, he heard a loud rumble behind him.
They all turned around and saw that Chen Jun had actually moved out of the trebuchet.
The soldiers pressed the pedal hard, and the stones the size of the basin were thrown high, and they drew a parabola in mid-air, heading straight for Xiao Ti and the others.
Shen Xu's pupils clearly reflected the stones.
They are rapidly approaching.
Tang Guixi, who saw this scene on the sentry tower, was stunned, and shouted: "Shen Xu, run!" ”
However, Shen Xu remained in place as if he was frightened stupidly.
At a critical moment, Xiao Ti appeared in time and pushed Shen Xu away.
The stone flew between the two of them and landed heavily on the ground, smashing into a small hole.
Before they could breathe a sigh of relief, another stone had already flown in front of Xiao Ti.
At this point, he had no time to dodge.
……
Yu Xuan opened his eyes violently and woke up from his nightmare.
Seeing this, Mama Xiuyan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed doing needlework, immediately put down the needle and thread in her hand and asked with concern.
"Why is your face so ugly? Is it a nightmare? ”
Yu Xuanxuan panted softly: "I dreamed that Ah is tired, he is in danger on the battlefield, Mama, will something happen to him?" ”
Aunt Xiuyan said softly: "Don't worry, Ah Ti is a person with great creation, and Jiren has his own natural appearance, he will be fine." ”
Yu Yuanxuan was still very uneasy in her heart.
I don't know if her mood affected the fetus in her womb, and she suddenly felt a pain in her abdomen.
She clutched her stomach and frowned.
"My stomach hurts."
Mama Xiuyan was taken aback: "Could it be that she is going to give birth?" It stands to reason that we should have to wait another two days. ”
For the sake of safety, she still asked people to invite Wen Po over.
Wen Po soon arrived, she lifted her curly skirt and looked at it carefully, and gave an affirmative answer.
"The amniotic water is broken, and it is indeed going to give birth."
Mama Xiuyan hurriedly asked people to bring over all the things needed for production, and then called Ling Hai over.
"You go out of the city immediately, find a way to find Xiao Ti, and tell him that you are going to give birth."
"Hmm!"
