Chapter 92: Temporary Conscription

Before he finished speaking, his eyes flashed, and the spear of the commander was already pressed against his neck.

He was startled and took two steps back, but the guns skyrocketed, and he followed him.

In fact, the tip of the spear was still three inches from his throat, but the cold glow of the swallow was almost reaching his skin. Forced by this majestic murderous aura, Sun Gongzi only felt that he couldn't breathe.

"Say one more word, and I'll cut off your head and give it to Sun Junshou!"

Sun Gongzi's face was as pale as earth, and the rest of his words were suffocated back into his stomach.

Even he withered, and of course the other families and nurses in the Sun Mansion did not dare to stop him, so the progress of the scene was accelerated, and the two horses pulling the cart became three horses and five horses, and the power was strong, and the ten boxes of military funds quickly climbed up the mud slope.

As for the other boxes in the Sun Mansion, they were all pushed away by everyone, either dragged down the slope or thrown into the water.

Civilians stole the property of the Sun Mansion, and the commander saw it in his eyes and didn't care about it at all.

In the current crisis, catching thieves and maintaining stability are not important, but the key is to let the team escape quickly.

When the road was clear, and the crowd cheered, he turned his horse's head and prepared to rush to the rear.

At this moment, there was a commotion at the rear of the procession, and the civilians ran forward with their lives while crying and screaming.

The pursuers are coming.

The crowd changed color and rushed to climb the slope.

A few of them didn't step on it steadily, and they fell directly into the river.

Commander Xiao shouted: "There is still the power of a battle to come out, pick up the weapon and break it with us, and there will be a heavy reward for entering the customs!" ”

He drank three times in a row, and the sound shook all over the world.

Liu Sanjiu in the team couldn't help but turn around, as if he was moved. But his wife immediately grabbed him by the arm and shouted, "Don't even think about it, you still have children!" ”

When a man dies, how hard will it be for an orphan or widow to be in a foreign land?

Thinking of this, Liu Sanjiu had no choice but to dispel his thoughts.

He looked back guiltily, picked up the child and ran forward.

In the crowd of desperate escapes, more than a dozen men gradually stopped. Someone immediately turned around, someone hesitated, but still came closer.

Commander Xiao pointed to the box that the Sun family had just opened and said, "You were temporarily conscripted into the army, if you can return alive today, you will be given a higher rank, more food, and more fields!" Now choose your weapon and choose a horse! I can shoot an arrow uphill up a tree and prepare! ”

The crowd picked up their weapons.

There were also thin men here, but they knew in their hearts that if the Gale Army could not hold it, the troops in front of them would suffer, and their families would be slaughtered.

In this battle, no one can stay out of it, and it is better to make a big one.

After passing this level, I will have a good life in a foreign land in the future.

In fact, it is not a mountainous area, but the water level drops during the dry season, revealing a large riverbed. The people walked on the riverbed, which was actually three or four feet (ten meters) high from the river bank above.

This was a short route to the territory of Panlong City, and only the Gale Army, who was well versed in the terrain and season, knew it, otherwise the fleeing team would have to bypass the stone forest above, and the journey would take a full three hours.

Three hours is enough to rewrite the outcome of a battle.

However, the enemy still caught up, and the fall of Weicheng was faster than expected.

The archers climbed the riverbank, condescendingly ready to release their arrows.

One of the remnants put on light armor and held their weapons, and one of them said in a loud voice: "Let's move the cart back to block the road and block the enemy's advance." ”

The boxes containing the furniture of the Sun family were thrown along with the carriage on the side of the road.

Previously, they could block the roads of civilians, but now of course they can also block the roads of pursuing soldiers, and they are effective fortifications.

Commander Xiao's eyes showed approval: "Good idea, what's your name?" ”

"My surname is He." The man smiled, revealing his white teeth, "He Lingchuan." ”

He had already figured out that since the worst outcome was just waking up, what else was there to worry about in the dream, just let it go.

What's the point of fleeing with the tide of refugees, even if you can survive?

"The rear army knows the terrain and must withdraw here, and the vehicle formation must leave a line for entry and exit." Commander Xiao jumped off the horse, stepped on the mud with the others, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and carried the cart back to the middle slope.

This is a hard work, the horses can't be dragged, and the manpower is even more difficult. The Gale Army had to shout the trumpet and work hard in unison to pull the carriage over.

No one complained, because of how difficult it was for them to move now, and the enemy would have to double or triple the difficulty of moving away by then.

In order to cause more trouble for the enemy, they dug the mud pit under the wagon deeper, so that it was more difficult to drag.

He Lingchuan followed Commander Xiao's side, and the heavy rain poured all the clothes on his body, and he exerted his strength, his shoulder and neck muscles tensed, outlining stern lines.

The two of them alone can tow a large cart.

The two of them went to move two more big boxes, put them in the car, and before they could straighten their waists, Commander Xiao said to He Lingchuan: "You are not from Weicheng, right?" ”

He Lingchuan was taken aback, but his face was confused: "Huh? ”

"The accent is not like it, the clothes are not like it." Commander Xiao tilted his head to the top of the hill, "Weicheng people are generally small. ”

There were a few archers lying on the hillside, and He Lingchuan looked up and saw that they were all thin and small.

"It's not." If you answer wrong, you will be in danger of killing, He Lingchuan immediately replied, "I was originally a Tusu person!" ”

Tusu City was captured ten years ago, and it makes sense for the refugees to flee to Weicheng.

He Lingchuan then asked, "Will we have reinforcements?" ”

Otherwise, to stay here is to wait for death.

"Yes." Commander Xiao was categorical, "One hour at most!" ”

His voice was loud, and the soldiers around him were in good spirits.

They only need to hold out for an hour before they can wait for reinforcements!

Everyone rummaged through Sun's boxes, hoping to get some more useful supplies. However, most of the military supplies have been shipped, leaving only a box of weapons.

Of course, there was also a lot of gold and silver falling out of the scattered chests, and the eyes of the newly recruited men were a little hot when they always saw them as they walked around.

He Lingchuan personally saw a person hiding a gold plate into his chest.

Commander Xiao also saw it, and did not stop it, but only reminded them: "Ah Blockage is too heavy, it will affect your skills." As long as you survive, you can pick and choose what you want here! ”

There was a smile on everyone's faces.

He Lingchuan opened a box, looked at the contents inside, and was stunned: "This Sun Junshou is gluttonous, why do you have to pack everything and take it away?" ”

Commander Xiao walked over and couldn't help but smile: "It's useful!" It's not military, but it's really useful, so let's put it up now. ”

He Lingchuan looked at the gold and silver in the big box all over the ground, and his eyes rolled: "I still have an idea, it's better to ......"

He also adopted this idea, and Commander Xiao also adopted it.

So everyone arranged it and spent a lot of time.

More and more refugees fled from the rear, and they all fled uphill through the gap in the convoy.

Two quarters of an hour later, the shouts of killing got closer and closer.

Commander Xiao and the others stood on the half-slope, engrossed. The rain hit the face, and no one felt cold.
