At the critical moment, it was Cui Weizhen who shot the assassin who raised his sword with an arrow and saved Zhang Yao from dying.
However, successive assassins have caught up with them. Cui Weizhen was able to shoot one person, but he could not shoot a group of people one by one. Zhang Yao still could not escape the fate of being surrounded and killed.
Zhang Yao clenched the sword unwillingly and used all his strength to block the first wave of assassins' attacks. However, more swords fell in front of him, and the cold silver light illuminated the redness and anger in his eyes.
It seemed like he was mocking him for hitting the stone with an egg.
Unwilling roars echoed in the dense forest, and hot blood was poured on him. The expected severe pain did not come. Zhang Yao raised his head in confusion and found that all the assassins who raised their swords towards him had already been hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
Death.
Are the enemies fighting among themselves?
No, reinforcements have arrived!
The clatter of horse hooves came in confusion, and his colleagues wearing the same guard uniform came with their bows and horses. At this time, they uniformly put away their arrows and dismounted. They knelt down and clasped their fists in front of the King of Wei: "My rescue is late, please, Your Highness."
Forgive me."
King Wei jumped off his horse, held his waist and took a breath: "I am fine, go and see Commander Zhang."
The guards hurriedly ran to help Zhang Yao up. He was too seriously injured and the wound was bleeding. The guards hurriedly tore off their clothes and tied up the wound to stop the bleeding. Although the other four guards were not as badly injured as Zhang Yao.
, but it’s almost there.
Fortunately, the doctors who were slowly following behind arrived belatedly. They looked at the guards' rough handling methods with disdain and ordered them to chop down trees to make stretchers without any courtesy at all. They then started pulling out arrows and treating wounds.
.
Fortunately, the doctors brought by Princess Wei this time were all good at dealing with bruises and injuries, and could keep their expressions calm when facing the bloody guards. If it had been another doctor, he might have been soft-hearted at this moment.
Zhang Yao was held down by the doctors and could not move. This iron-clad man remained silent even when three arrows were pulled out of his body, as if what was stuck in his body was not arrows but a few burrs.
The other four guards who were also injured were filled with admiration.
Zhang Yao lost too much blood and fell into a semi-conscious state. However, he did not forget his beloved partner and said to his subordinate who was close to his ear: "Wuzui...save it..."
"Commander, don't worry, my subordinates will go over and treat Wu Zhui's wounds."
The guards gave repeated assurances, and Zhang Yao fainted with relief.
Not only Zhang Yao's mount Wu Zhui, but also King Wei's beloved horse Taxue was carried out by the guards. Anyone who has been on the battlefield knows that mounts are their most loyal partners. No one is willing to abandon them unless the situation is desperate.
My own beloved horse.
Both Tuxue and Wu Zhui were seriously injured, but fortunately they were still alive. The doctor present was not a veterinarian and was not good at treating animals. They had to go out before they could find professionals to treat their injuries.
The doctors were busy rescuing people, while Cui Weizhen was wandering among the fallen men in black, trying to find any clues about the mastermind behind the scenes.
It's a pity that they were all dressed in black. Apart from the bows, arrows and swords on their bodies, they had no other proof of identity. These dozen assassins had just been hit by arrows and fell down. They did not die immediately, but found that reinforcements had arrived, and there were no more
After winning, they all bit the poison hidden in their mouths and committed suicide.
"Death warrior."
Cui Weizhen said: "Sending more than a dozen dead soldiers at once is indeed a generous move."
"It's not just that." King Wei was not a scholar who had never entered the military camp. He picked up the quiver and sword of the dead soldier and looked at them. He sneered: "They are both forged in the army. It seems that the opponent's quiver and sword were made in the army." The foundation is not shallow either.”
However, if he was not killed this time, then the forces in the opposing army would be crippled.
The King of Wei ordered the guards: "Clean it up, place the weapons and these corpses, and I can still use them."
The guards followed the order and left. Soon a guard came over and asked for instructions: "Your Highness, there is a dead bear behind you. I don't know how to deal with it?"
King Wei then smiled, looked at Cui Weizhen and said, "Weizhen, this bear is your trophy. It seems that you are the leader of today's winter hunt."
Cui Weizhen was very modest: "Wei Chen performed exceptionally well in a critical situation. It was just a lucky shot. He may not have such strength next time."
"Oh, could it be that the Duozi God just came to help?" King Wei teased.
Cui Weizhen: "..."
The allusion of the Duozi God helping out was a joke quoted by Ye Zhenzhen from the previous life's "Laughing Lin Guangji". It was widely sung by Zhou Xunting and Chu Ningyan couple, and now everyone knows it. It's really a bit of a joke for King Wei to use it to tease him. Not surprising either.
The corner of Cui Weizhen's mouth twitched, and he decided not to share the same views with the injured person, and cast his eyes on his waist: "Your Highness is seriously injured, and you must go to see the imperial doctor as soon as possible. Your Highness, please keep that sika deer for your own use, your injury is serious." Take good nourishing food.”
King Wei: "..." Well, it turns out that it's Uncle Jing Ning who is so petty, and he will definitely retaliate for his anger.
He touched his nose angrily and said: "The princess and others were afraid that they would know that we were in danger, so they sent the guards in to rescue us. Let's go out early so as not to worry them outside."
Cui Weizhen naturally had no objection, and he couldn't wait to get out now.
In order to avoid causing panic, the group of troops was divided into two groups.
Another five guards were selected to take the prey with King Wei and Cui Weizhen and return the same way. The remaining guards took care of the dead soldiers and weapons. As for Zhang Yao and other injured guards, they had already left through another way.
King Wei and Cui Weizhen, who had experienced melee and pursuit, appeared in an unseemly manner in front of the people waiting outside the forest. At this time, these ladies and ladies just thought that the fourth young master was missing and did not know what happened in the forest. After a bloody battle, everyone screamed in surprise when they saw their embarrassed appearance.
Before anyone spoke, Princess Wei walked over immediately, and her voice with some lingering fear rang out in the noise, blocking other inappropriate speculations: "Your Highness, why are you injured? Ah, did you encounter a bear? "
Two guards were walking behind carrying the bear.
King Wei nodded cooperatively: "Yes, we encountered a bear in the forest. Zhang Yao and the others were accidentally injured. Fortunately, Uncle Jing Ning's arrows were all right and he finally subdued the bear. Otherwise, we might have been in trouble."
No wonder the King of Wei changed his mount and even Zhang Yao and the others disappeared. It seemed that the doctors were treating him behind.
The female relatives were frightened when they heard this. For a moment, they had no time to think about why there were bears in the woods. Instead, they cast their admiring eyes on Uncle Jing Ning.
I had always known that Uncle Jing Ning was full of nylon, but he didn't expect that he was also a master of archery with perfect accuracy.
Only Ye Zhenzhen stared at the blood stains on Cui Weizhen's clothes, with a paleness that had not faded from her face, because she knew clearly that it was definitely not the blood stained when killing the bear.
