Chapter 605: At stake
But he saw a sergeant coming on horseback, and before he could come to Wang Shouren, he fell off his horse.
Wang Shouren's personal guards hurriedly stepped forward, helped the soldiers up, and came to Wang Shouren.
But I saw that he was covered with scars, gray-headed, and anxious.
"My lord, go! There are ambushes in front of the sky! When the sergeant saw Wang Shouren, he shouted urgently.
Wang Shouren and Ming Zhongxin glanced at each other, a trace of horror flashed in their eyes, is there really an ambush?
"Say it! How many ambushes? What about General Wu? Ming Zhongxin looked at the sergeant and asked.
"Let's go! Now is not the time to say this, General Wu will stop those ambush soldiers in the back, and let a certain come back to report to the adults! Let's go! The sergeants were about to go crazy and yelled at Wang Shouren.
Wang Shouren nodded understandingly, "Help this sergeant down and recuperate with peace of mind." ”
"My lord! If it's too late, it's too late, and General Wu will die in vain! The sergeant still shouted.
"Alright, open your mouth!" Ming Zhongxin solemnly said to the sergeant.
Yes! The sergeant looked at Ming Zhongxin in astonishment.
Ming Zhongxin stopped talking nonsense, and as soon as he raised his hand, a silver needle pierced his cheeks, and the sergeant involuntarily opened his mouth.
A flash of white light flashed and threw it into the sergeant's mouth.
Ming Zhongxin patted the sergeant on the back, grunted, and the sergeant raised his neck and swallowed.
"What is this?" The sergeant was shocked and looked at Ming Zhongxin.
"Wound medicine! Let's rest for a while, and you'll have to take us to rescue General Wu later! Ming Zhongxin said succinctly.
Yes! The sergeant looked at Ming Zhongxin in surprise, and then looked at the surrounding situation, and instantly understood.
The stumps and severed arms in that place made him sober, and those things were dressed in clothes that were not the clothes of the sergeants, indicating that Wang Shouren and the others had been attacked by thieves, and the sergeants who ran around to suppress the bandits showed that these thieves did not curry favor, and it was estimated that they were all swept away by the sergeants, and now they are cleaning up the battlefield.
He stopped being verbose, sat on the spot, and recuperated.
Wang Shouren gestured with his eyes, and the guards quickly rushed to that line of heaven, obviously to reconnoitre.
"Master Ming, I'm afraid that General Wu won't be able to support it for long!" Wang Shouren Chongming said.
Ming Zhongxin understood and nodded, "Ming understands!" ”
Saying that, Ming Zhongxin turned his head and shouted, "Mingxing, a quick solution, there is still something to do!" ”
"Yes!" Zhao Mingxing, who was fighting, answered loudly.
"Quick fix?" A hint of hatred flashed in His Holiness's eyes, and it just so happened that I had this intention.
Coincidentally, Venerable and Zhao Mingxing accelerated their means of attack, and for a while, the sound of the battle between the blades was endless.
Ming Zhongxin glanced at it and frowned, "Qianjin Kun retreats, and the hurdles are up and down!" ”
Zhao Mingxing, who was fighting, had a light in his eyes and followed the order, and for a moment, His Holiness felt a little constrained.
"After the earthquake before the shock, Gen Shang Xun down."
As soon as Zhao Mingxing turned around, he happened to turn to the Venerable's hand, and the back of the knife shook, and it slashed right at the Venerable's neck.
His Holiness was dizzy!
Wang Shouren looked at Zhao Mingxing dumbfounded, knocked down the Venerable in two or three strokes, and then looked at Ming Zhongxin, and shouted in his heart, it's too godly!
But Ming Zhongxin seemed to have done a trivial thing, turned back to Wang Shouren and said, "My lord, please also ask Ming Jin to withdraw his troops and go to the rescue of General Wu quickly." ”
"Oh!" Wang Shouren came back to his senses and commanded, "Good! Guard, Mingjin! ”
A gong sounded!
"Teach!" Zhao Mingxing came to Ming Zhongxin and looked at him.
"Hmm!" Ming Zhongxin glanced at him and nodded.
"Teach and learn, students are ashamed of your teachings!" Zhao Mingxing looked ashamed and lowered his head.
"Practice for an hour in the future!" Ming Zhongxin wrote lightly.
"Ahh Zhao Mingxing looked up at Ming Zhongxin with a look of surprise.
"What? If you don't want to, then practice for half an hour! Mingzhongxin's face was displeased.
"Just an hour! Just an hour! Zhao Mingxing's face was panicked, and he waved his hand again and again.
"Hmm!" Ming Zhongxin snorted lightly, "Tie up Zhu Yuanwai and Venerable, and you are responsible for escorting them!" ”
"Yes!" Zhao Mingxing responded, and then there was a look of joy on his face. If the teaching is not pursued, this is a great thing! What's more, there is also the beauty difference of the extra practice!
Wang Shouren next to him was stunned, an hour, half an hour? What the hell is this?
What shocked him even more was that Ming Zhongxin had obviously reduced the training time for Zhao Mingxing, why was Zhao Mingxing so panicked? It's against common sense!
And he also noticed that when Ming Zhongxin asked Zhao Mingxing to go around, the students next to him actually looked envious, what the hell is this? This Ming family is really against common sense! The family is so weird!
He shook his head and shook off these thoughts, after all, the most important thing now is to rescue Wu Qi, and he must not lose a general before he arrives in Yunnan!
At this time, the sergeants had already turned their horses back, and they all looked at the heads tied to their horses, obviously they had military merits, and they were in a very happy mood!
Seeing this situation, Wang Shouren and Ming Zhongxin looked at each other and smiled, it seems that today is really a lot of gain!
"Sergeants, there is no need to clean the battlefield here, General Wu Qi is in ambush in front, and it is in danger, we must go to the rescue immediately! Saving people is like fighting fire, except for the wounded sergeants who are resting here, all set off! After the sergeants were assembled, Wang Shouren was not hypocritical, and after arranging, he gave an order and set off quickly.
The students looked at Ming Zhongxin.
Ming Zhongxin pointed at Zhao Mingxing, "You are here to take care of the prisoners, and by the way, you will guard the wounded sergeants!" ”
When Zhao Mingxing heard this, he saw Ming Zhongxin's face and knew that there was no room for negotiation, so he had to look at Ming Zhongxin with a sad face.
However, Ming Zhongxin didn't pay attention to him at all, and turned his head to Lan Xin'er and instructed, "You rest here with Mingxing, and I'll go back!" ”
Lan Xin'er looked at Ming Zhongxin, nodded knowingly, and should follow.
"Let's go!" Ming Zhongxin gave an order, and the students followed.
The students rushed in front of Zhao Mingxing arrogantly, and raised their necks at him arrogantly one by one, very proud.
Zhao Ming was so angry that his face was flushed, and his teeth were clenched.
But there is no way, after all, he is arranged by Ming's teaching, and he has to do it if he doesn't do it, so let these guys be angry for a while, and then find a place again. Turning his head not to look at the students, he saw Zhu Yuanwai and Venerable who were standing on the ground next to him, and he couldn't help but get angry and stepped forward and kicked them.
Zhu Yuanwai and His Holiness were already awake at this time, and they raised their heads and looked at Zhao Mingxing angrily.
"Hmph, dare you stare at me?" Zhao Mingxing's face changed, it was because these two guys were cumbersome, so tired that they were guarding here, and they dared to be so arrogant, their anger surged upwards, and they beat them violently, and sprinkled all the anger they had just received on Zhu Yuanwai and His Holiness.
Zhu Yuanwai and His Holiness were under the eaves, so they had to swallow their anger and bow their heads silently.
"Mingxing, don't abuse them, it is estimated that Brother Ming still has something to ask them! Spare them! Lan Xin'er couldn't look at it, and stepped forward to persuade.
"Yes!" When Zhao Mingxing saw Lan Xin'er, he smiled and agreed.
Well! Lan Xin'er nodded and smiled, and went to the side to rest.
Zhao Mingxing glared at Zhu Yuanwai and Venerable Beings fiercely, and found a nearby mound of earth on high ground, guarding them and vigilantly paying attention to the movements around them.
After all, Ming Zhongxin's instructions include being vigilant at all times, guarding these wounded and Lan Xin'er, he can't slack off!
Don't mention how Zhao Mingxing thinks of the guards, and say that Wang Shouren and them.
Ming Zhongxin drove his horse to the sergeant and horse who reported the news, walked side by side, and asked Wang Shouren about Wu Qi's situation.
The sergeant had recovered his spirit at this time, looking at Ming Zhongxin with a ruddy face, a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes, obviously, he understood that now standing here alive and vigorously, it was Ming Zhongxin's pill that worked, and he would not hide anything and bring Wu Qi's situation together.
But it turned out that at the beginning, Wu Qi sent two groups of scouts to investigate the situation, but he did not return for a long time, so he had no choice but to personally bring people to investigate.
However, when the sky passed, the vigilance was very high, but there was no discovery.
Out of the sky, there is still nothing to be found.
So, Wu Qi led people forward, wanting to find the scout first and see what happened at the end, however, along the way, there was no clue at all.
But this made Wu Qi more cautious, because the disappearance of the scout showed that he had definitely encountered force majeure, and the danger must have appeared, so he could not be careless.
Wu Qi took the sergeant and fanned forward to investigate.
Just when Wu Qi was searching for the carpet, he finally found the traces of the thieves.
And when the thieves saw that the ambush was discovered, they attacked in groups.
Wu Qi was frightened, rose up to resist, although with his bravery, temporarily resisted the attack of the thieves, however, after all, the enemy was outnumbered, he had to fight and retreat, and gradually retreated to the exit of the first line of heaven, relying on the convenience of the terrain, temporarily withstood the attack of the thieves.
But he understood that this was not a long-term time after all, and he couldn't stand it for long, and at the same time, he was worried that someone was outflanking Lord Qincha behind his back, and he was extremely worried about the safety of Lord Qincha.
Therefore, he sent a sergeant to report the news, and asked Lord Qincha to quickly return to Xuzhou Mansion, and after meeting Li Bing, he would pass through the first line of heaven. And he stayed in the front line to block the thieves and buy time for Lord Qincha.
The sergeant finished talking about the situation in one breath.
A trace of admiration and gratitude flashed in the eyes of Wang Shouren and Ming Zhongxin, this Wu Qi obviously wanted to sacrifice himself to buy time for them, but he was without backup, sooner or later he would be broken through by the thieves, and then he and the sergeants would inevitably be broken into pieces by the angry thieves!
He must have known the consequences, but he did it without hesitation! This is a good idea of the overall situation, as far as the current situation is concerned, this is the best plan, and it should indeed be done!
But his heroism moved Wang Shouren and Ming Zhongxin, after all, they have only known each other for a short time, but they treat each other like this, although it is their duty, but this is force majeure! He didn't have to!
"Alright, all staff speed up, reinforcement General Wu!" Wang Shouren was agitated and shouted loudly.
"Yes!" The sergeants shouted in unison.
For a moment, the sergeants increased their march.
"My lord, it's better for us to go to reinforcements first, after all, the world is sinister, and there is no need for many people, let's rush to stabilize our position, confuse the thieves, and then exterminate these thieves!" Ming Zhongxin rushed to Wang Shouren and asked for his life.
"It's good! You go first! Wang Shouren had seen the unpredictable methods of Ming Zhongxin before, and he nodded in response.
"Let's go!" Ming Zhongxin waved his hand, and the students followed him, urging the horse to break away from the team and go straight to the sky.
At this time, on the other side of the sky, Wu Qi waved his big knife and cut the thieves who rushed up in two.
"Brothers, hold on! For the sake of the brothers in the back, resist! Wu Qi roared with bloody eyes.
"Yes!"
However, only two sergeants agreed, and the two sergeants, including Wu Qi, were all covered in blood, and they didn't know whether they were their own or the thieves, and their images were extremely embarrassed, but they were blazing in their eyes, looking at the thief on the opposite side viciously, and slashing at the thief with a knife.
The rest of the sergeants were already dead on the spot. And their horses, which were already full of arrows, fell under the heap of corpses. Obviously, they were attacked with bows and arrows, and in desperation, they had to form a defensive line with horses, and they were spared.
Finally, under Wu Qi's left and right blocks, a group of thieves were killed and wounded.
But Wu Qi was so tired that he knelt on top of the corpse.
"General!" The two sergeants supported Wu Qi on the left and the right, kneeling on top of the pile of corpses.
At this time, after a closer look, it turned out that the corpses of the sergeants were piled up at the exit of the first line of heaven at their feet, forming a corpse pile with the corpses of those thieves, one person high, blocking the thieves.
And Wu Qi and the two sergeants stood on top of the corpse, condescending, gasping for breath, looking at the thief opposite.
A trace of perseverance flashed in Wu Qi's eyes, and he pulled the two sergeants to stand up again, forming a sharp knife formation with the two sergeants, he was in front, and the two sergeants assisted on the left and right, looking forward viciously.
Although the first line of heaven is not wide, it is also ten people wide, and they can't protect the first line of heaven at all.
But I saw that another group of thieves swarmed and rushed forward.
"Kill!" When the thief approached, Wu Qi waved his steel knife to split Huashan with one move and cut down the thief.
The two sergeants also rushed down.
Two groups of people fought together.
However, after all, although Wu Qi has few people, they occupy a favorable position and are condescending, which reduces the consumption of physical strength for them.
But seeing that Wu Qi pulled the knife out of the thief with difficulty after slashing down a thief, it was obvious that his physical strength was about to be exhausted, but he held on and blocked the thief.
However, after the thieves had been cut down, the two sergeants knelt on top of the corpses and cut off the legs of the thieves, apparently they could no longer stand, so they had to do their best.
"Brothers, work hard, they're already at the end of their crossbow!" A glimmer of heaven, apparently the leader, shouted there.
When the thieves heard this, they roared even harder and rushed towards Wu Qi and them.
However, although Wu Qi and the others were physically exhausted, they were blocked again and again under the charge of the thieves.
"Poof!" With a bang, finally, a steel knife blew on Wu Qi's shoulder.
Wu Qi screamed in pain, and slashed into the thief's waist with both hands with a swing of a steel knife, but he was powerless to pull it out.
The thief had a hint of a smile in his eyes, but he glanced down at the steel knife on his waist, and his face instantly glanced at Wu Qi in surprise, and he hung his head and died.
"He's out of strength, rush!" The leader saw it from a distance, and under great joy, he waved his hand and led the team to rush to the entrance of the first line of heaven.
