Chapter 385: Leaks
Although the father-in-law guessed the reason, he couldn't help but shake his head and deny: "No, no! If these people are coming for Your Majesty, then how did they know the news? Your Majesty's departure from the palace was a temporary intention, and only a few people such as Zhang Gong knew about it, and even Liu Gong was kept in the dark?"
"This last general is not clear!" Xia Jiang also nodded when he heard this, Zhengde left the palace this time, he had just arrived in Baoding, only a few hundred miles away from Beijing, and the time was only less than two days.
What's more, those who know the secret of Zhengde's exit from the palace, in addition to the people present now, there are only a few people Zhang Yong and Ning Xiu'er.
With Zhang Yong and Ning Xiuer's loyalty to Zhengde, how could they easily leak secrets and trap Zhengde in a Jedi?
The father-in-law said again: "But Mr. Xia Qian, what you said has some truth! I estimate that if these bandits are really coming for Your Majesty, they will always find a way to break through our defenses! At that time, you will order people to take advantage of the chaos to flee and go to the nearby military station for help! Now that Your Majesty has been robbed by the bandits from Longkou Mountain, there should be no worries about your life for the time being! As long as we transfer the garrison as soon as possible, Your Majesty will be fine!"
"Father-in-law's words are reasonable!" Xia Jiang couldn't help but feel justified when he heard his father-in-law's words, but he found that there were some problems in his father-in-law's words, and he couldn't help asking, "But what my father-in-law said didn't seem to mention yourself at all, this is ......"
"If the bandits are really coming for Your Majesty, then we people, they must be killed completely! I am just a eunuch, although I have learned some martial arts that are not in the stream, but the role I play is extremely limited! What's more, the situation is critical now, and it is necessary to have a person with both wisdom and courage like Mr. Xia Qian to find an opportunity to break through the siege and move to rescue His Majesty! As for our family, we will stay here and work with all the brothers to delay time for Mr. Xia Qian and win life for His Majesty!"
Originally, the two of them were in the sanitation of a group of guards, and when these guards listened to the words of the two of them, they knew that they and the others were very likely to not survive, they were a little panicked in their hearts, and their morale dropped a lot!
But at this time, this father-in-law said this, but all the guards were ashamed and ashamed!
This castrated eunuch can be loyal to the monarch and serve the country!
Naturally, the shame and indignation in their hearts were aroused, and their morale was revived, and they fought a little harder.
When Xia Jiang saw it, he couldn't help but secretly give a thumbs up to his father-in-law, and said sincerely: "Although my father-in-law is a eunuch, according to Xia's humble opinion, he is really a real man......!"
"Okay! Mr. Xia Qian, hurry up and prepare for the retreat! Don't persuade me to leave again!" The old eunuch didn't wait for Xia Jiang to finish speaking, he knew what this Xia Qian was thinking, and immediately stretched out his hand to block Xia Jiang's words, and then pulled out a waist knife and stepped forward to command.
When Xia Jiang saw it, he couldn't help but feel a little sour, and after saluting his father-in-law's back, he turned around and prepared to select reliable subordinates, and disperse to break through when there was chaos.
Although the red-robed guards were desperate, there were too many masters on the other side, and they were gradually killed and surrounded, allowing them to get together with the most powerful black-clothed master of the sword.
After these black-clothed masters got together, they instantly burst out with even greater power.
Although the red-robed guards were under the command of their father-in-law, they did not hesitate to die with the enemy.
However, the gap in martial arts made the efforts of the red-robed guards in vain.
The battle array was broken by this group of masters with such a skillful method, and more and more people in black rushed over, from the first one-on-one, to the later two-on-one, three-on-one, until a group of people surrounded and killed one.
The fate of the red-robed guards was already doomed! The father-in-law also died while he was fighting hard.
Only when Xia Jiang saw the opportunity, after knowing that he and the others were gone, he ordered a few cronies and subordinates to flee in all directions, and after seeing someone chasing them, he secretly found a direction that he was optimistic about earlier, grabbed the road and ran away, and killed a bloody road.
After paying a few heavy scars, he finally escaped from the encirclement of the man in black.
At this time, the night is dark, and you can't see your fingers, and ordinary people can't even see the road clearly!
Fortunately, Xia Jiang had served in the border army and knew some ways to identify the direction at night, so after finding the right direction, he took a step forward and prepared to flee to bring rescue troops for Emperor Zhengde.
But before he could run too far, he saw a black shadow behind him suddenly attack, Xia Jiang didn't notice it, and was suddenly hit by this black shadow, and fell to the ground, as if he had died like this.
After a while, when Xia Jiang still didn't move, a man in black slowly walked out of the shadows.
This person was quite vigilant, while walking, he was still holding the steel knife in his hand, but the other hand was holding a bamboo stick behind his back, obviously not worrying about whether Xia Jiang was dead or alive, preventing Xia Jiang from cheating to death!
This journey is not long, but he is one step at a time, and when he walked to Xia Jiang's side, he looked at it and found that Xia Jiang was already bleeding from his mouth, as if he was dead.
But this person is not at ease, as soon as he lifts the steel knife, he is ready to pierce Xia Jiang's chest with a knife!
Xia Jiang, who originally seemed to be dead, suddenly grabbed on the snow, and a handful of snow was sprinkled, blocking the sight of the man in black at once.
Then I saw Xia Jiang on the ground with a ground hall leg, and directly took the legs of the man in black.
It's just that this man in black is not a mediocre hand, and he was already wary of Xia Jiang's death, so this snow ball was scattered and blocked his sight, but he was not surprised.
With a flick of the long knife in his hand, he swept the snow aside.
Just caught a glimpse of Xia Jiang using the ground hall leg to attack his lower plate.
The man in black smiled coldly, and suddenly pulled out the bamboo stick behind him, turned into a shadow of a stick in the sky, and smashed it towards Xia Jiang.
This black-clothed man's stick technique is exquisite, Xia Jiang saw that if he continued to attack this black-clothed man with his earthly legs, he was afraid that not only would he not be able to make meritorious contributions, but he would seem to send his legs to his stick to be beaten, and at that moment Xia Jiang slapped his palm on the ground, and the whole person floated backwards.
Fortunately, Xia Jiang has been practicing martial arts for a long time, and has experienced bloody battles in northern Xinjiang, and his martial arts are not bad.
He used his hands instead of feet like this, and he actually dodged the man in black's more than ten moves.
But after all, manpower is exhausted from time to time, no matter how good the work is done, if it is not for years of practice, it will not be as good as the legs.
Therefore, after barely holding on to more than ten moves, Xia Jiang accidentally pressed on a stone, and the blood flowed on his hand, not to mention, and his body was inevitably stagnant, and he was caught up by the man in black.
Defeating Xia Jiang, the man in black smiled proudly, slowly stepped forward, and said with a cold smile: "Hehe! When did such a master come out of the Beijing camp to be able to take Wu's many moves, it was really powerful!"
"How do you know that I am from Jingying?" Xia Jiang was seriously injured by this, and he thought that his life was short, and his heart was extremely miserable, but suddenly he heard the master of the man in black speak, his heart jumped, and he couldn't help but blurt out and ask.
"Hmph, you go to the underworld and ask Hades about this question!" The man in black saw that he had leaked his mouth, his heart jumped, and he couldn't help but slash at Xia Jiang's throat.
Xia Jiang was seriously injured, and he couldn't escape it no matter what, but at this time, he heard the slip of the tongue of the man in black, knew the secret of the terrible, and the idea of survival in his heart was great, and he immediately rolled on a donkey and dodged the fatal blow of the man in black.
But the stick of this man in black is not bad after all, although Xia Jiang escaped with his life, but his back was beaten by this stick and his skin was broken, so it was not miserable.
When the man in black saw that Xia Jiang was still able to dodge his own stick at this time, he was angry in his heart, and smashed it again.
But at this moment, a figure galloped from a distance.
When the man in black first saw him, the figure was still a hundred steps away.
But in the next breath, the figure touched the ground lightly, and its figure skyrocketed, and in an instant, it was within ten steps.
"Who is coming?" The black-clothed man's heart jumped, knowing that this person was not good, and the good person was not coming, and seeing that this person's martial arts were so terrifying, most of them were not opponents, so they thought of confusing with words, and after finishing the Zhengde guards who escaped, they would try to retreat!
After all, people who are generally inexperienced in the rivers and lakes will most likely be distracted to answer when asked, and such a moment of effort is enough to solve this righteous guard by themselves.
It's just that although the experience of the people who came to the rivers and lakes is not as rich as that of the man in black, he was not distracted by the words of the man in black.
Gai has a clear goal, and he is here to save the Zhengde guards under the stick of the man in black.
Therefore, he didn't answer the words of the man in black, and in the blink of an eye, he approached within three steps, and with a point, there was a faint sword aura lingering in his fingertips, and the direction of this finger click was also the wrist of the man in black.
If the man in black still wants to kill Xia Jiang regardless of it, then this person's finger can probably pierce the wrist veins of the man in black.
Judging from the skill of this person to turn his fingertips into a sword, under this poke, most of the hands of the man in black will be useless!
This man in black is a selfish person by nature, although he wants to kill Xia Jiang, he doesn't want to be the price of his own abolition no matter what, so he has to take the stick back to protect himself, and suddenly, a stick is pointed at the armpit of the person who came.
But this person who suddenly appeared, his martial arts are obviously above the man in black, although this stick can be regarded as a stroke of genius, but this person is a light pressure on his backpalm, and he suddenly let this stick fall short, and then he didn't do much entanglement, pulled up Xia Jiang on the ground, and retreated a few steps to rescue Xia Jiang from danger.
This man in black was furious when he was rescued from his own rod and his own person was killed, how could he easily stop!
At the moment, regardless of anything else, I saw that the man in black changed the shadow of the stick, and used a stick technique, flickering forward and backward, up and down, which was extremely weird.
The person who saved Xia Jiang couldn't help but say in surprise when he saw this kind of stick method: "Hey! Dog beating stick method, you are a member of the beggar gang? Then why do you want to attack the official army?"
