Chapter 27: Encirclement

Xu Chuan and Zhan Yingying went all the way north, in order not to leak too early, the two of them did not take the main road and did not enter the city.

Xu Chuan spent four years getting used to this kind of life of eating and sleeping in the open, but Zhan Yingying gritted his teeth and never complained.

It's just that the closer they get to Shangjing, the more difficult it will be for them to walk.

Father-in-law Wei is just one of the various means to prevent her from returning to Beijing, but he will not really rely on all his hopes on a eunuch.

At a distance of hundreds of miles from Shangjing, there are countless bright and dark whistles.

Along the way, because there was no need to hide it, Zhan Yingying also confessed all his coefficients.

She is the sister of the current Emperor of Northern Qi, and she is in full battle.

Instructed Gonggong Wei to kill her, although she didn't know who it was, but it was nothing more than those Zhan family members, and only they had the ability to buy the eunuchs in the palace.

Now her eldest brother is seriously ill and dying, and there is only one young son under her knees, who is rumored to be a man, Zhan Doudou, who is less than seven years old.

Those people who are close to the warrior family probably saw this and wanted to take this opportunity to take down the supreme dragon chair.

And the reason why he wanted to kill her was nothing more than that he was afraid that she had led the army, and there was an army of 5,000 people outside Shangjing City, and he wanted to erase her variable in advance.

When she thought of the situation in the palace at this moment, she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Xu Chuan listened to her narration, and some vague memories in his mind gradually became clear.

It is said that the reason why he dared to go north to Beijing with Zhan Yingying was that he knew who would be the emperor in the future.

Maybe Zhan Yingying is not mentioned in the original book, because she died outside the city of Fenghui.

This also led to three thousand elite soldiers forcing the palace, and in the end, they could only rely on the deterrence of the great grandmaster Kuhe, so that Changning waited to drill the dog hole and go to Shen for help.

If Zhan Yingying had not died and had brought troops into Beijing, the situation would have been very different.

At the very least, this also guarantees the deterrent effect that the royal family really deserves.

It is not that in the future, in order to prevent the ministers from joining forces and dictatorship, they will not be able to control it, and they will also perform a drama where the emperor and queen are not in harmony.

Xu Chuan glanced at Zhan Yingying meaningfully, he was a knife that saved the Northern Qi royal family.

But it's good that the leader is more committed, and he doesn't have to worry about the future of those children anymore.

On this trip, he may not only be able to meet the future little emperor of Northern Qi, but also the great master of Qi State, Kuhe.

The figures of a black-clothed swordsman and a mother and daughter flashed in his mind, and he sighed in his heart.

Three years on, what happened to you?

Pulling Zhan Yingying to avoid a patrol of the secret sentry, Xu Chuan sighed and said, "It seems impossible to get close to Shangjing quietly. ”

Zhan Yingying said with some anxiety: "Then what should I do, let's kill it!" ”

Xu Chuan glanced at her and said with a smile: "It's a good way." ”

This time it was Zhan Yingying's turn to be surprised, she looked at Xu Chuan in amazement, not knowing what he meant.

Seeing that Xu Chuan's expression remained unchanged, her expression slowly became serious: "Are you serious?" ”

Xu Chuan looked at the faint figures of the bright whistles and dark whistles in front of him, hugged the sword and said: "Those people next to the Zhan family may not be able to organize such a force, in addition to those remnants of the previous dynasty, maybe someone in Qingguo also intervened, under such an arrangement, it is better to save the heart, you can't use our amateur to challenge other people's professions." ”

Kyungkook? Zhan Yingying is not a fool, she instantly understood the meaning of this, but in this way, the situation in Shangjing may be even worse than she imagined.

Her face changed greatly, and before she could say anything, she only heard Xu Chuan leave a sentence, and her figure had already drawn her sword and killed her.

"Follow me!"

She was stunned for a moment, Xu Chuan's long sword came out of its sheath, and in the blink of an eye, he killed the spy who had almost discovered them just now.

This was the first time Zhan Yingying had seen Xu Chuan make a move, and the fierceness and decisiveness made her feel shocked.

She also has a five-grade cultivation, but even if she shoots with all her might, I'm afraid she doesn't have that speed and strength.

Seeing Xu Chuan rushing forward, she didn't think much about it and hurriedly chased after her.

Now they were still ten miles away from their destination, and with the strength of their feet, it usually only took half an hour to complete.

But now, I'm afraid it's not so easy to go.

Within a few minutes of killing the first outpost, a sentry spotted them.

The moment he found them, he shot the arrow at the first time.

This means that a large number of people are about to arrive soon, and even if Xu Chuan kills him as quickly as possible, he can't stop it.

The only good news was that the man had a horse under him.

Xu Chuan decisively rushed up to kill him, and then pulled Zhan Yingying over, and said, "Get on the horse, it's time for you to behave." ”

He doesn't know how to ride a horse anyway, but he knows a little bit about driving.

The situation was urgent, Zhan Yingying didn't say much, turned over and got on the horse, Xu Chuan was silent, put his hand on the saddle and borrowed a little force, and sat behind Zhan Yingying, hugging Zhan Yingying's waist.

No one cares about that at the moment.

Now there were already five people around, and Anne rode over not far away.

"Drive!"

As soon as the whip was drawn, the horses neighed and galloped as they sat down.

Seeing this, the five men each took out a crossbow and aimed it at the two of them while riding their horses.

"You just ride, I'll take care of the rest!"

Xu Chuan held Zhan Yingying's waist with one hand and pulled out his long sword with the other.

Whoosh whoosh!

Five crossbow arrows broke through the air, with extremely sharp edges and amazing speeds.

However, although their speed was fast, their movements were not small, and the changes in the airflow caused by them were as vivid in Xu Chuan's perception as the lights in the night.

He didn't look back at all, and with two backswords, he stopped all five crossbow arrows.

The five men did not believe in evil, and shot three waves in a row, all of which were like this, and when they saw that the distance was widened, they took the crossbow back and concentrated on chasing.

Xu Chuan temporarily withdrew his sword and breathed a sigh of relief.

In this wave just now, he clearly felt that it was far from his limit, and he vaguely felt that it would take at least twenty people to reach his limit.

In this way, in a short time, they had rushed out for nearly three miles.

At this moment, there were already nearly twenty people chasing after the rear, and blockers were faintly beginning to appear in front.

A moment later, two men on horseback rushed at them, and they slashed at them with knives.

Seeing this, Xu Chuan turned over and came to her with Zhan Yingying's waist and borrowed strength.

Those two people have one knife per person, and they borrow horsepower, and they are violent.

Xu Chuan's eyes are solemn, and his sword is a stunt chasing the wind.

The blade of the sword flashed a silver light, and with a sound, he stopped the two of them with a sword, but the palms of his hands were numb by the strong shock, and the sword almost came out of his hand.

The two of them were also uncomfortable, and under the huge force of the shock, the tiger's mouth was directly cracked and bleeding.

But even so, they still didn't care about the injuries on their hands, forcibly suppressed the power of the anti-shock, endured the pain and swung their knives to prepare to slash again, slashing the horses under Xu Chuan and Zhan Yingying.

Xu Chuan was powerless to parry for a while, but at the critical moment, Zhan Yingying flicked his horsewhip and pulled the two knives away, and the remaining strength was not reduced, and he directly pulled the two off the horse.

Xu Chuan turned his head sideways and said, "It's not bad!" ”

Zhan Yingying snorted and said, "I'm a former general, do you really think I'm the kind of weak princess who has no ability to protect herself?" ”

As soon as the two of them spoke, the horses under them suddenly fell diagonally.

It turned out that a transparent silk thread was arranged in front of it, and because of the lack of awareness, coupled with the extremely fast momentum, the horse's front legs were directly cut off in an instant.

At the critical moment, Xu Chuan reflexively hugged Zhan Yingying, stepped on the horse's back, flew out diagonally, and rolled on the ground a few times before unloading the powerful inertia.

The two of them stood up, and they were surrounded by more than 20 people, impermeable.

In the distance, there are more people galloping towards you...
