Chapter 52: Lighting the Lamp

When I think of my husband, something suddenly comes to mind. We are hidden in the cave, and it will be difficult for the enemy to penetrate, but if Jiang Wei and the others arrive and find that the city is broken, thinking that I am dead, the blow to the sergeant will be extremely great. And with Meng Jian's wisdom, if he doesn't use it to give full play, it will be a hell of a disaster.

But how do you inform them that I'm alive?

Send someone into battle? First, there is no such fierce general in the army, and second, the enemy army surrounds us, and if we want to rush out, it will be more powerful than the sky.

Release the carrier pigeon, the army is in motion at any time, and the carrier pigeon can't transmit the message at all.

Alas, thousands of calculations, or missed this, am I really stupid?

I called Zhao Zheng and others to come and discuss together. But after thinking about it, I didn't discuss a result. I couldn't help but sigh: "It would be nice if Mr. Kong Ming was here." As soon as the words were finished, my heart flashed: "Yes, you can use Kong Ming lanterns!" ”

"Kong Ming lantern? What is that? ”

Kong Ming lantern is a kind of communication appliance invented by Mr. in Shuzhong, I and Jiang Wei have seen it, with fine bamboo as a frame, thin paper paste, burning candles, you can fly to the sky.

Now there is no fine bamboo in the army, and there is no tissue paper, what should I do? I asked people to take the arrows from the eight arrays, and ordered Zhao Zheng to cut off the arrowhead feathers and split them into thin strips. took off his cloak and tore open the lining of Shu brocade, and actually solved the problem.

After a short time, the enemy army really began to pour smoke into it. The sergeant guarding the entrance to the cave bowed down, his robe wet to cover his nose. Although the cave is ventilated, the smoke at the entrance of the cave is still very thick, many people are choked and coughed, the smoke actually contains a spicy smell, I don't know what is put in it, but it is by no means a chili pepper, there is no such thing in this era.

This smoke was going on for about half an hour, and as the smoke entered the hole, there was a sound of nails in the tunnel, and I knew that the enemy was trying to dig more and bigger holes so that we could not be guarded. Fortunately, this underground river tunnel is deep enough from the top, and it is mainly made of stones, and the enemy lacks the necessary equipment, so it can't be dug for a while.

After the smoke was over, the enemy began to test the people again. This time we waited for a while, and after seventy or eighty of them, we suddenly cut off the enemy's rear road and wrapped these enemies in dumplings. At this time, the enemy no longer dared to send people down, and was unwilling to give up, so they set up a heavy ambush on it, shouting and screaming, filling it with water if it didn't come out again, sealing the hole with a big stone if it didn't come out, and so on. We didn't pay any attention to him, we just hid in the cave and kept silent.

In the blink of an eye, it was already night, and the sentry with the empty urn on his head suddenly said: "Young master, there are soldiers and horses coming twenty miles away." ”

I nodded, "Keep exploring." ”

That's when reinforcements finally arrived. I groaned, but instead felt a sense of unreality, in this dark underground river, the glittering light of the reflected figures moved. I came to the entrance of the cave again, and heard a shout from outside: "Storm all night!" There are not many of them left, they want to see people in life, and they want to see corpses in death! ”

Immediately afterwards, countless torches were thrown into the entrance of the cave, burning brightly, illuminating the four walls. We were so frightened that we retreated, and the enemy had rushed down. The people who came down this time were all covered with white scarves, bare arms, and strong men with huge knives in their hands, looking through the firelight, all of them looked like fierce gods and evil brakes. They are all good at choosing one out of a hundred, and it seems that they are the death squad selected by Meng Jian.

The impact of this team was really strong, and even the Eight Formations were forced back by them, and the soldiers rushed up, and in the blink of an eye, blood was splashed, and they were actually rushed open. I couldn't help but be furious, drew my sword, threw it to Zhao Zheng, and shouted: "Zhao Zheng! Bring the guards to block the hole! Whoever retreats will be killed! ”

Zhao Zheng took the sword in his hand and shouted: "Yes!" He also ripped off his robe from his shoulder and rushed forward. The guards around him also learned one by one, and they stepped up and went into battle.

Zhao Zheng lifted my long sword, and when he encountered the enemy with only one sword, he cut off the enemy's weapon, and he couldn't help but be shocked, and rushed up with a shout. My sword was made for me by Pu Yuan, the world's No. 1 sword-casting master, and it is comparable to an idle weapon.

Hesse and the others were repulsed by the strong enemy, and when they saw that I was angry, they couldn't help feeling guilty, and rushed forward with their weapons, but I stopped them: "You eight, don't go yet, you will be useful for a while." ”

Hesse knelt down in front of me and said firmly: "Young master, I am defeated, I die, and you can't look down on me." ”

I nodded and said, "Okay, as long as you are ruthless enough, no one will look down on you, this time, I want you to rush out of the hole, do you have the guts?" ”

Hesse excitedly said: "Of course there is. ”

As soon as I waved my hand, the rest of the guards also gathered, took a drum, and said, "I'll beat the drum for you, rush out of the hole in one breath, disperse the enemy, and wait until the Kong Ming lantern is completely put up before retreating, can you do it?" ”

Hesse said: "It can be done! ”

"Very well, I'll wait for everyone's lives, and I'll do it all here! Let's go! ”

I waved my arms and beat the huge drum, and the dull sound of the drum echoed in the cave, and the figures of the sergeants rushed to the entrance of the cave in the light of the torches, and immediately shouted to the sky, and the roar was like thunder.

I slammed the drum and stared intently at the entrance of the cave. There was enough time for three pillars of incense, and Zhao Zheng led people back. There were more than 200 people when he went, and less than 80 people came back, and the wound on Zhao Zheng's arm burst again. I looked around: "Did the Hesse Eight come back?" ”

Zhao Zheng shook his head and said: "This kid is red-eyed, not to mention that the nine Kong Ming lanterns are not all put in the sky, and it is not considered to have completed the task of the young master." ”

I hurriedly said: "Why is it so rigid, in the chaos of the army, it is good to be able to put up a lamp for the outside to see, and let him come back quickly." ”

Zhao Zheng looked back and smiled: "How?" Hesse, get in. ”

In the dark shadow, Hesse and the others turned out, I was taken aback, eight formations were disabled, only three remained, all of them were like blood rolling out, Hesse was all over his body, and I don't know how many wounds he had broken. When I thought that he was given to me by Mr. Kong Ming, but I was hurt like this, I couldn't help but feel heartache.

Hei Han knelt down, and his mouth was still the emotionless, hard Chinese words: "Young master, I am defeated, I die, you can't look down on me!" ”

never imagined that a momentary gaffe would trigger such a strong reaction from him. I looked down and lifted him up with both hands: "You are a warrior, no one will look down on you!" You are the loyal and brave minister of the Great Han! ”

Hesse grinned, straightened up and fainted.

I shouted, "The doctor is coming!" ”

Suddenly, there was a loud rumble at the entrance of the cave, and the enemy had given up the attack and sealed the cave with a boulder.

Looking at the boulders, everyone was stunned, but I laughed out loud.

Meng Jian finally gave up his attack on me, which shows that he was defeated! He's defeated!

"All rest!" I shouted, "Prepare to go out tomorrow morning and deliver the final blow to the enemy!" ”

When I met Guan Ping the next morning, he was gray, his eyes were red and swollen, his hair and beard were all curly, and there was a wound on his neck.

When asked about the origin of the wound on his neck, he was startled. It turned out that when we put Kong Ming's lantern last night, it was when he met Meng Jian. He mistakenly fell for Meng Jian's plan, thought I was dead, and almost committed suicide from me. If it weren't for watching Kong Ming's lantern fly into the sky and knowing that I was still alive, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see him again.

defeated a master like Meng Jian together, and the brothers had to meet again, and the original grievances against him had long since come to naught. I took his hand and called his cousin: "Brother Tan, big brother, we are finally reunited." ”

Guan Ping said: "Guan Ping is incompetent, and he almost fell into the place where the young master died, please punish the young master." ”

I laughed and said, "That's where that's coming from." Let's join forces and go to kill for a while, these days, Meng Jian's bird spirit has had enough! ”

Hearing that I actually spat foul words, Guan Ping was slightly stunned, and also laughed out loud.
