"Drive, drive, drive..."
Zhang Cheng drove the carriage and rushed out from the gate on the other side.
At present, these pirates are being held back by Lu Daoming and a group of men, and a large number of pirates are also gathering in their direction.
There were not many pirates near the side door. After Zhang Cheng and others killed a few pirates with knives, they carved a bloody path out.
If Lu Daoming and others hadn't attracted the pirates' firepower and lured them over, it would have been really difficult for them to rush out through the side door.
"Master Lu, I promise you!"
"I will definitely escort them back safely!"
Zhang Cheng said to himself as he drove his carriage towards the weakly defended city gate.
That is their only way to escape from here.
Once you escape the city, the outside world is vast.
Those pirates will not care about them. After all, the wealth and women in Ruian County are the purpose of their trip.
"Brother Zhang, there are a lot of pirates ahead!"
"If we rush over directly, we might be stopped by those pirates."
At this time, the pirates had gradually taken control of the gates of Ruian County.
After all, they wanted to plunder the entire city's wealth, so they could only imprison all these common people and dignitaries in the city.
Only then can they squeeze out all the wealth in this city.
Compared with when they launched the raid on Ruian County, their control over the city gates was already relatively strong.
In other words, it's not easy to rush out right now.
They missed their best opportunity.
Upon seeing this, Zhang Cheng also pondered for a moment. He looked at several loyal servants of the Lu family and said, "Hide the carriage!"
"Which of you can drive?"
The slaves of the Lu family present are all female dependents, but a few of them are quite strong.
His physical strength is no worse than that of ordinary men.
"My husband buys goods for the house. Sometimes he can't buy goods. I take care of all the goods!"
"I'm quite familiar with driving!" a maid said to Zhang Cheng.
"good!"
"We brothers will fight with these pirates later, and we will lure these pirates away!"
"You saw the right opportunity and drove out directly!"
"Don't stop, do you understand?" Zhang Cheng, an experienced border soldier, said to the maid.
Looking into Zhang Cheng's eyes, the maid was a little nervous.
But she still nodded and agreed.
Among the men who stayed with Mr. Lu, there was her husband.
She didn't want her husband to die in vain.
"very good!"
"You guys hide first, I'll go check it out!"
The night was dark now, and the enemy could not be clearly seen with only the faint firelight in the distance.
Zhang Cheng is an experienced veteran. Of course he knows that he should find out the situation of the pirates at the gate of the city before he can formulate the best plan.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Zhang Cheng and several brothers went over.
The pirates in the distance brought several jars of wine from nowhere. The pirates couldn't wait to tear open the lids of the wine jars, lift the jars and start drinking.
While drinking, these pirates complained that this time they could only defend the city, but had no chance to participate in the robbery.
How can they get even a cent of the profit and water out of it?
Full of unwillingness, the pirates cursed and drank the wine.
Zhang Cheng and others used the moonlight to take a look at the arrangements of those people in the darkness.
At this time, Zhang Cheng and these veterans already had a plan in mind.
They retreated quietly under the cover of night without attracting the attention of the pirates.
When Zhang Cheng and others returned, they realized something was wrong.
"Where's Mrs. Lu?" Zhang Cheng asked alertly.
"Madam woke up just now. She said she was thirsty, so I asked Madam's personal maid Juan'er to follow Madam in the room to find some water to drink!"
The woman didn't know the seriousness of the matter. She simply thought that Chen Qiuniang just woke up and was thirsty.
But Zhang Cheng was thinking more, and he quickly looked at the baby in the maid's hands.
Sure enough, the infant mother and baby had a jade pendant hidden inside, and no one noticed it.
"ah!"
"This is madam, the jade pendant that madam wears everywhere!"
"Why is it on the lady's body?" the maid said, covering her mouth.
"It's broken!" Zhang Cheng immediately went to the room.
Sure enough, Chen Qiuniang's personal maid Juaner fainted on the ground.
As for Chen Qiuniang, she has disappeared without a trace.
The relationship between Chen Qiuniang and Lu Daoming is very good, and they have no idea what their husbands will choose to do.
Chen Qiuniang, who is Lu Daoming's wife, naturally knows it very well.
When she woke up, she already knew the reason why Lu Daoming was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Cheng sighed, "Mr. Lu, Zhang Cheng has failed you after all!"
"When Zhang Cheng was a border soldier, he once heard that wild geese are the most affectionate animals and they never live alone.
"If one of the married geese dies, the other will commit suicide or die of depression."
"Zhang Cheng used to think that people were inferior to geese, but now I think about it again!"
"There are still infatuated people in this world!" Zhang Cheng was extremely uncomfortable with Chen Qiuniang's choice. After all, he had promised Lu Daoming, but Zhang Cheng was a man of strong character.
Chen Qiuniang made her own choice, and Zhang Cheng could only try his best to save the current group of people.
Especially the infant daughter of Lu Daoming and Chen Qiuniang.
After figuring this out, Zhang Cheng no longer hesitated.
"When Ruian County is liberated, Zhang Cheng will definitely find the bodies of Master Lu and his wife."
"Bury you together!" After saying this, Zhang Cheng no longer hesitated at all.
The situation is tense right now and could drag on even for a minute or a second.
It would be extremely disadvantageous for them to escape from Ruian County, so Zhang Cheng had no other choice and could only make a decisive decision.
"A few of us will rush into the pirate group later and lure them away!"
"The city gate will be very weak at this time, please watch my signal!"
"I will shoot a rocket towards the city gate, and then you will see the rocket I released!"
"Then rush forward desperately. The gate of this city is now in ruins. You just need to lower the drawbridge and rush out of the city!"
"Don't look back, just rush towards Huangjia Village. Do you understand?"
Zhang Cheng's eyes were blazing, and he stared closely at the woman driving the carriage.
At this time, the woman seemed a little nervous, and she replied stutteringly, "I understand, I understand..."
"Remember, your husband fought with all his life against those pirates for you and your children!"
"Stay alive, protect your children, and don't let your husband's death be in vain!"
Zhang Cheng looked into the woman's eyes and said again.
Thinking of her usually cowardly husband, this time for the sake of their hope of survival, he actually took the initiative to deal with those vicious pirates.
The woman's eyes were a little moist. She nodded and said, "I understand!"
This time, the woman's voice was obviously much louder.
