Chapter 996: Reinforcements Arrived
Everyone was so shocked that they froze in place, forgetting how to behave.
"Retreat!" At this moment, a cold cheer sounded, and everyone in the White Pole Army immediately came back to their senses when they heard the words, and they retreated one after another.
At about the same time, Xia Guoxiang, the leader of the Black Armor Army, also reacted, and opened his mouth to scold, "Withdraw, what the hell are you waiting for?"
The Black Armor Army suddenly woke up, but they were just at the entrance of the canyon, the terrain was narrow, and it was impossible to retreat in a short time.
Xia Guoxiang didn't have time to take care of too much, so he immediately flew back.
There was a loud "bang", the ground shook, the boulder fell to the ground, and a scream came out.
Immediately after that, two people flew up in the air from behind the boulder, and it was Murong Fu and Ah Jiu.
"Murong Fu!"
"Nine Princesses!"
Qin Suzhen and Situ Bolei exclaimed in surprise when they saw the two in the air, the former was surprised, and the latter was ecstatic.
In fact, the reason why Situ Bolei led people to kill him so quickly was because they had just discovered that Ah Jiu was missing, and in a hurry, they mistakenly thought that they had been taken away by the masters of the Black Armor Army, but they didn't expect to be taken away by Murong Fu.
"Hmph, take away the princess and don't say a word, it's really unruly. Thinking through the joints, Stubberley snorted coldly and scolded secretly.
Qin Suzhen looked at the two people who were hugging each other tightly in the air, her heart was slightly sour, on the contrary, she was much less happy to see Ah Jiu.
Murong Fu flew over the battlefield with Ah Jiu in his arms, landed steadily on a high ground, looked at the three parties condescendingly, pouted and said, "A group of fools, such a good time is in a daze. ”
The sound is not loud, but it is clearly in everyone's ears.
Qin Suzhen's face flushed slightly when she heard this, and she immediately ordered, "Their formation is out of order, kill!"
On the other side, Stubery and his son were not slow to react, and immediately led people to kill into the black armor army, and for a while, the morale of the black armor army was weakened, and they were killed and lost their armor.
This change came suddenly, and Xia Guoxiang didn't expect it, but he immediately shouted, "Don't panic, keep the formation, work in groups of three, stay in place, and our reinforcements will arrive soon." ”
In the last sentence, the black armor army calmed down a lot, and they formed horns with the nearby people to coordinate the attack and defense.
The Black Armor Army is worthy of being elite, in less than a quarter of an hour, it has completely stabilized, gradually slowing down casualties, struggling to resist, the White Pole Army and the Wangwu faction in addition to taking advantage at the beginning, to the back, but equally, the three sides stalemate.
"Master, I'm going to help them. Ah Jiu watched the people of the Wangwu faction die one by one, and couldn't help but feel unbearable, and said to Murong Fu.
Murong Fu frowned slightly, and finally said lightly, "Be careful." ”
Ah Jiu's face was slightly happy, and he immediately flew up, and the silver light on his waist flashed in the air, and suddenly a sword qi several zhang long burst out of the air, killing five or six black-armored soldiers in an instant.
"What is Murong Fu doing to eat, how can he let the princess be in danger!" Situ Bolei, who was fighting on the other side of the battlefield, saw this scene and immediately scolded.
"Father, let us hurry over, lest the princess encounter any danger. Situ He said immediately.
Situ Bolei didn't answer, but his body rushed towards Ah Jiu desperately.
Qin Suzhen also frowned lightly when she saw this, the purpose of their coming here was to rescue the Ninth Princess, since they were safe, why didn't they leave just now, but let the Ninth Princess be encircled again.
Nearly 3,000 men and horses fought endlessly on the entire battlefield, each with blood stains on their bodies, or they died together, or their limbs flew sideways, and as the corpses fell, they soon dyed the land in a hundred zhang square red with blood.
Murong Fu clasped his hands on his chest, his face was unwavering, but in fact, he was quite touched in his heart, it was not the first time he had seen this kind of bloody picture, thinking that in Shenlong Island, Guangming Peak, Heimu Cliff and other places, he had experienced a big scene of thousands of people fighting, of which he killed no less than three thousand.
But if it is said that what touches the most is the scene in front of you, this is the real war, there is no reason to talk about it, only the law of blood, cold and cruel.
In a blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed, and Murong Fu's eyes never left the two women, Ah Jiu and Qin Suzhen, once any of them were in danger, he would come to the rescue.
It's just that these two daughters are really not ordinarily strong, Ah Jiu won't say it, her martial arts are Murong Fu's personal inheritance, and her swordsmanship is superb, but she often has three points of spare strength when she kills the enemy, and so far there are only dozens of black-armored soldiers who have died under her sword, and Qin Suzhen is different, the whole person is like a silver swimming dragon, and she is either killed or injured wherever she passes, and she has beheaded nearly a hundred black-armored soldiers.
The three-party battle has also suffered heavy losses so far, among which more than half of the casualties of the Black Armor Army are left, and there are less than seven or eight hundred people left, while the White Pole Army is slightly better, with more than 500 people left, as for the Wangwu faction, the losses are the heaviest, only more than 200 people remain, which is still the result of the Black Armor Army using most of its forces to resist the attack of the White Pole Army.
However, the Black Armor Army always stuck to the entrance of the canyon, neither letting the Wangwu army inside come out, nor letting the white pole army outside enter.
"Oops!" Suddenly, there was a soft sound of mountains shaking in Murong Fu's ears, and he immediately listened attentively, and couldn't help but change his complexion.
Then he dodged out without hesitation, and in an instant, he crossed dozens of zhang of space and came directly to Ah Jiu's side.
Casually knocked a black-armored soldier away, Murong Fu grabbed Ah Jiu's wrist and flew back.
"Master!" Ah Jiu was startled, and then found that it was Murong Fu, and then calmed down and looked at him puzzled.
"Look, their reinforcements have arrived. Murong Fu stretched out his hand and pointed to the east side of the canyon.
Ah Jiu looked up and saw a dense red silk pointed hat rushing towards him, which was the ordinary soldier under Wu Sangui.
Ah Jiu's expression changed greatly, and he immediately shouted into the field, "General Situ, Sister Qin, withdraw quickly, their reinforcements have arrived." ”
The sound instantly penetrated the battlefield, and Situ Bolei and Qin Suzhen were shocked when they heard this, and they looked in all directions, only to see that the dense forests around the canyon were full of countless Qing soldiers, overwhelming.
And the prime minister of the Xia Kingdom laughed even more maniacally, "Hahaha, you want to withdraw? It's too late! Brothers, our reinforcements have arrived, and we will work harder to entangle them!"
The morale of the Black Armor Army was greatly boosted, and they were desperate to hold off their opponents.
"I can't care so much, let's go. Murong Fu immediately said a word, and wanted to leave decisively.
Unexpectedly, Ah Jiu's arm slid away, and he broke free of Murong Fu's hand in an instant, pulled out of the distance, and looked at him deeply, "Childe, I can't go, you can go quickly." ”
"Ah Jiu, you ......"
Murong Fu wanted to say anything more, Ah Jiu preemptively said, "Childe, thank you for giving Ah Jiu the opportunity to regain his life, you treat Ah Jiu Tian with the kindness of the high ground, but unfortunately Ah Jiu only has to repay in the next life, fifteen years ago, my father left me alone to live and die with the Ming Dynasty, fifteen years later, I can't leave them." ”
After speaking, he turned around and rushed into the battlefield, the speed was as fast as lightning.
Murong Fu looked at Ah Jiu's figure in a daze, sighed slightly after a while, and said with a wry smile, "If I want to watch you die, how can it be possible." ”
Then his lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
At the same time, Situ Bolei and Qin Suzhen in the field suddenly froze, and Murong Fu's voice sounded in their ears, "Lead people to retreat into the canyon and detonate saltpeter powder, or you may have a few chances of winning." ”
Situ Bolei glared fiercely in the direction of Murong Fu, but he blamed him for not taking Ah Jiu away in time, and then ordered everyone to retreat into the canyon.
Qin Suzhen hesitated, but finally did what she said, and ordered the army to rush into the canyon at all costs.
Murong Fu's body quickly jumped into the battlefield, and when Ah Jiu was distracted, he stopped her with a move, and glared at her slightly, "Make your own decisions, and I'll clean you up later." ”
After speaking, the white light around his body lit up, and countless sword qi gushed out, wrapping the two of them into a big hedgehog and rushing into the canyon.
In less than half an hour before and after, the Wang Wu army and the white pole army all rushed into the canyon, but the black armor army did not rush to pursue, in fact, they were at the end of the crossbow, where did they still have the strength to pursue, but those Qing soldiers later rushed into the canyon under the order of a black-faced and long-bearded general.
This black-faced general is the guard general of Jiaomen Pass, Guo Shitu, who is around fifty years old.
"Haha, Brother Guo came in time, if it weren't for you, Xia might have planted it this time. When Xia Guoxiang saw this person, he greeted him with a big smile in his mouth.
"Brother Xia is too modest," Guo Shitu rode on a horse, stroked his long beard, and replied, "Not to mention that you are also doing things for the prince, you should help each other, just with your ability Brother Xia, how can you be planted in the hands of a few bandits." ”
Speaking of which, both of them are Wu Sangui's sons-in-law, they have a good relationship, and they refer each other as brothers, if not, Xia Guoxiang would not dare to use his body as bait and hand over his life to Guo Shitu.
Xia Guoxiang listened to Guo Shitu's tone, and his face suddenly turned solemn, "Brother Guo, don't underestimate these bandits, they are the men and horses of the former Sichuan Central Military Mansion, and they are old enemies with our prince, brother, I almost suffered a big loss." ”
Guo Shitu laughed, "Brother Xia, don't worry, the lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and my brother still understands that he will never capsize in the gutter." ”
Xia Guoxiang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Let's say that after the White Pole Army and the Wangwu Army converged, they rushed into the canyon together, and the people led by the two sides couldn't help but be angry when they saw Murong Fu and Ah Jiu rushing in.
"Murong Fu, how can you bring the princess to death?"
"Yes, if you don't explain to the old man, the old man will never rest with you. ”
The eyes of the other leaders looking at Murong Fu were also gloomy, which showed how desperate they were at this moment.
"You think Lao Tzu wants to bring her in!" Murong Fu rolled his eyes, cursed secretly in his heart, and said lightly, "I, Murong Fu, rely on the word 'righteousness' to walk the world, and I haven't left the habit of abandoning the allies to escape." ”
Ah Jiu Deng in his arms was stunned for a moment, and his bright eyes glared at the boss, as if he had just known this person.
Of course, she knew why Murong Fu came in, and she was extremely moved in her heart.
Hearing this, Qin Suzhen was silent, but Situ Bolei scolded, "Confused, confused, the princess is related to the rise and fall of the Ming Dynasty, how can you take her into danger with your will, and now...... Now what face do you want me to see the emperor after I die?"
