Chapter 632: Medium Scheme
Unexpectedly, as soon as Pang Gonggong's words fell, Dong Xueyi drew his bow and arrows, and shot the chauffeur who was driving the saint without hesitation.
Pang Tianshou was shocked, pushed the driver's body, and personally picked up the reins to catch the car, but was immediately shot in the right arm by Dong Xueyi with an arrow, and got out of the car in front of him.
After Dong Xueyi's delay, Arjuna's people have already caught up. She quickly killed all the guards who accompanied her, and then stepped forward to split the door of the carriage, preventing a short arrow from flying in the chest. She hurriedly dodged sideways, but it was still a little late, and her left arm went numb, and she lost consciousness.
Arjuna completely ignored the pain, stepped on the stirrup hard, jumped into the car, first raised her hand to stab Bai Daqi who was holding a crossbow, and then dragged the Empress Dowager Zeng out of the car.
Immediately, someone stepped forward and dragged Zeng Huiheng to the horse, while the other person picked up Zhu Linyuan's swaddling clothes and tied them to his chest.
Then Arjuna took out a bamboo whistle and blew it three times in a row, and took the lead in running north. When her men heard this, they all stopped fighting and followed her in a roaring retreat.
In the south of Nanjing, Jin Wu led his troops to break the camp and carefully kill out of the city, but found that there was a "Duoduo army" somewhere, but there were more than 400 rabble, but there were more than 300 banners.
He wiped out all these "Qing troops" in three times and five to two, and saw four or five horsemen galloping desperately, constantly shouting along the way: "The holy car is attacked!" ”
It turned out that the soldiers of the imperial camp who asked for help were blocked out of the east gate, and they had no choice but to run around Nanjing City separately, hoping to enter the city to call the police.
Jin Wu asked the reason, and he was also shocked in his heart, and immediately led his troops to the direction of Purple Mountain to rescue the driver. It's just that no matter how fast the camp marches, it is dozens of miles away from the place where the Son of Heaven was attacked, and at this time, Jianyu has robbed Zhu Linyuan and the Queen Mother and went to the Yangtze River.
Arjuna galloped out of eight or nine miles at all costs, and suddenly saw a group of people dressed as ordinary people with swords in front of her. She turned her head and instructed her subordinates, "It's the one who Meng Zhengfa answered, and it was passed from their formation." ”
Unexpectedly, after running a hundred and ten steps, there were a large pile of branches and ropes in front of her, which seemed to be "rejecting the horse". She was angry in her heart, the pursuers hadn't arrived yet, what kind of way were these fools blocking?!
She restrained her horse speed and shouted, "Steward Zhang, I've got it, quickly move the horse away!" ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone shouting in the distance: "General A, I'm here!" Ahead is friend or foe! ”
Arjuna's heart sank, and when she looked back, the Ming army brigade behind her had already chased after her, and she was afraid that it would be too late to make a detour.
She gritted her teeth and ordered her men to rush ahead to intercept. Immediately, more than 200 Jianjiao, led by thirty or forty dead soldiers, rushed towards the "Ming army" in front of them with red eyes.
Gukang Village led the village to be less than 200 strong, holding crude spears and tremblingly watching Jian Yu rush up, and there were still 200 steps away before someone turned around and fled.
At this moment, a group of dark green cavalry in uniform suddenly struck out from the bushes on the right flank of Jianyu, firing a volley of fire, and then slashing with a steel sword, instantly killing Arjuna's formation.
These people obviously knew that it was not advisable to fight hard, and as soon as they succeeded, they went around in a circle to the east without waiting for Jianyu to counterattack, and then turned around and formed a formation, and watched the enemy's movements from a distance.
Arjuna didn't know that the only people in front of her were the "rabble" of bandits in the village, and she was afraid that the flanks would be attacked again during the struggle, and the bottom would sink like water.
Behind him, the Ming army was faintly heard shouting to kill - just kidding, the emperor was lost, and these people chased after him desperately.
When she was at a loss, the Empress Dowager Zeng who was on the horse next to her woke up leisurely. Zeng Hui reacted slightly, and immediately struggled and shouted: "Don't hurt my son!" I promise you anything! Give me back my son......"
Arjuna was about to knock her men unconscious, when she heard the baby crying behind her, and her heart couldn't help but move.
She waved her hand to the soldier carrying the baby on her back, ordered him to hand over the swaddling clothes to herself, and drove her horse to the Empress Dowager Zeng, pretending to be panicked and said: "The Empress Dowager is above, I, I know that I am wrong, I just want to live, and I hope that the Empress Dowager will let me wait for a way out." ”
"Put, put!" Zeng Hui immediately nodded desperately, "As long as you return Yuan'er to me, I will immediately issue a decree to pardon your innocence...... Again, give another 10,000 taels of gold! Quick, give me back ......"
Arjuna glanced at her subordinates, and less than 200 people who were still alive gathered on the side, and only one person was secretly hiding in the crowd farthest away from the Empress Dowager Zeng.
Arjuna handed the baby out, and at the moment when Zeng Hui's hand touched the swaddling clothes, she whispered: "Can the Queen Mother let the people who are blocking the way get out of the way first?" ”
"Get out of the way. Good. Zeng Hui turned his head and shouted to the people of Gukang Village, "I am the empress dowager of the dynasty, so you and the others will retreat immediately!" ”
"And them." Arjuna gestured to Gao Wenrong again.
"You guys, stay away quickly!"
Arjuna asked the Empress Dowager Zeng to leave a horse, stuffed the swaddling clothes in her hand, and said: "Please also ask the Empress Dowager to ride the horse to the southeast, don't turn back, otherwise I can only break the net with you." ”
"Good, good, never look back!" Empress Dowager Zeng glanced at the baby in her arms, immediately nodded desperately, and then shook the reins of the horse, and ran to the southeast as fast as possible, only thinking about getting away from these gangsters as soon as possible.
Arjuna pointed to a dozen dead soldiers, and pointed to the Empress Dowager Zeng, "Follow her, keep firing arrows, just don't hurt her." ”
"Huh!"
Gao Wenrong saw Jianyu fleeing from the side of Gukang Village, and was about to chase after him, but he heard the Queen Mother shouting, "The Holy One is here!" Help! ”
He turned his head and saw more than a dozen Jianlu chasing after the Queen Mother and constantly firing arrows, while the latter was lying on his horse tightly, protecting the baby in his arms.
He didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and hurriedly led the team to respond. These thieves were not difficult to deal with, and they were all shot by the reed wheel in one shot.
Gao Pai asked the Queen Mother and the Son of Heaven to be protected in the middle, and joined the imperial camp team that came from the south.
Empress Dowager Zeng and her son were desperate, only holding the baby tightly and coaxing: "Yuan'er is not afraid, not afraid, my mother will not let them hurt you......"
And the little emperor seemed to be frightened, so he couldn't stop crying at the top of his throat.
After a while, the imperial camp of the Ming army finally arrived, and the generals knelt in front of the Empress Dowager Zeng, and said, "The escort is unfavorable, and it is a capital crime!" ”
Gao Wenrong saw that Empress Dowager Zeng was only sitting on a horse and looking at the Son of Heaven and frowning in a daze, so he had to lean forward and whisper: "Empress Dowager, I don't know if there are still bandits here, it is better to return to the palace quickly." Look, do you want everyone to get up first......"
Before he finished speaking, Zeng Hui suddenly trembled violently, and then stared at the baby in his arms like crazy, shook his head and screamed: "No! No! This is not my source! This fake! ”
Everyone was stunned. At this moment, Jin Wu led 1,500 soldiers from the Broken Battalion to arrive, and was just about to step forward to salute, when he saw Empress Dowager Zeng desperately pointing to the north side, and shouted in a lost voice: "Chase!" Give me chase! That woman lied to me, and Yuan'er was taken away by her! ”
