She Yue's pretty face turned pale, she turned around suddenly, reached out and pulled out the long sword from Dong Guangxiao's hand.
Dong Guangxiao's expression changed slightly. With his skills, it was not difficult to stop She Yue from drawing the sword. However, he did not dare to take action against She Yue and allowed She Yue to pull out the sword. However, the expressions of several people who followed Dong Guangxiao to the top of the city showed expressions.
Sudden changes are all caused by holding down the weapon.
These people are not dressed as county soldiers, nor do they look like ordinary people in the city. They look like people traveling in the world.
"Whoosh!"
The tip of the long sword was pointed at Dong Guangxiao's heart, and everyone's expressions were grim.
Dong Guangxiao was startled, but She Yue already had an angry look on her face and said sternly: "Dong Guangxiao, you didn't open the city gate, so you killed him. You have to pay for his life."
"Your Highness, what did your Majesty do wrong?" County Captain Gong Kui changed his color and said in a deep voice: "The Queen Mother Society rebelled. In order to protect the people in the city, Your Majesty, your Majesty, blocked Shuning City. He has been sleepless these days.
, has been preparing for defense. Your Majesty is a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty who serves the country with loyalty. Your Highness kills loyal ministers indiscriminately, and the villain...the villain refuses to accept it!"
"Sheath the sword!" A person behind Dong Guangxiao said sternly: "Master Dong is our friend, we will never look at you...!"
Before the man finished speaking, Dong Guangxiao had already raised his hand to stop, looked at She Yue, and said in a heavy voice: "Master Qin sacrificed his life for the country, and I am saddened by my humble position. If Your Highness wants to punish Master Qin for my humble position, I am willing to accept it." He raised his finger.
Xiang outside the city: "But now the rebels are besieging Shuning City. They know that after the princess enters the city, they will only attract more rebels. It won't be long before the entire Shuning City will be surrounded, and the rebels will definitely
I will capture Shuning City at all costs. Regardless of whether I am guilty or not, I just ask Your Highness to suspend the execution of I, until I have defeated the rebels, and then Your Highness will punish him."
However, She Yue only felt dizzy. The long sword in her hand fell to the ground and she staggered. People around her did not dare to touch the princess's body. Some people turned their backs to She Yue and wanted to block it with their bodies. However, She Yue supported herself and staggered to the battlements.
Standing beside him, holding on to the city wall, his pretty face turned cold and stern: "If Qin Xiao is killed by the rebels, I want them to pay for it with 100,000 lives."
Although the rebels were enemies, She Yue's voice was so loud that everyone felt chills in their hearts.
At this moment, I heard someone shout loudly: "Sir, there are cavalry...!"
Dong Guangxiao's expression darkened. He walked to the city wall and looked down from a high position. He could only hear the sound of horse hooves. Through the moonlight, he could vaguely see a horse galloping toward the city gate like lightning.
The archers at the top of the city were already readying their bows and arrows, ready for battle.
One rider was a hundred paces behind, and dozens of riders followed closely, seemingly chasing, but not speeding up. They seemed to be deliberately keeping a certain distance, neither closing the distance nor widening the distance.
"Everyone is ready." Dong Guangxiao received the long sword handed over by Gong Kui and looked at She Yue with a stern expression: "Your Highness, I will send someone to arrange for you to rest first. You...!"
The grief on She Yue's face had been well concealed, but her pretty face was as cold as frost at the moment, and she said coldly: "I want to see you kill the thief with my own eyes!"
Although Dong Guangxiao felt that there was a certain risk for the princess at the top of the city, but thinking about it from another perspective, with the Princess of the Tang Dynasty personally stationed at the top of the city, the morale of the officers and soldiers guarding the city would naturally be boosted.
"Your Highness, that's not right...!" Dong Guangxiao is a martial arts practitioner after all. He has sharp eyes. He looked down at the horse and noticed the clues: "There are two people on that horse...!"
She Yue immediately stared at the horse, and Dong Guang Xiao said: "There is a person lying on the horse's back...!"
"Qin Xiao...!" Lai Qi approached and saw the silhouette of the knight on the horse. She Yue's beautiful eyes shone brightly: "It's... it's Qin Xiao...
!" The cold expression was instantly replaced by surprise: "That's Qin Xiao, hurry up... open the city gate quickly, he... he's still alive...!"
As soon as She Yue said this, everyone else became excited.
Although no one else present knew Qin Xiao except She Yue, Qin Xiao's feat had already aroused everyone's respect. At this time, they were naturally excited to learn that Qin Xiao came back alive.
"You can't open the city gate." Dong Guangxiao still maintained absolute calmness and ordered: "Rope, find a rope."
Gong Kui immediately understood what Dong Guangxiao meant.
Although Qin Xiao narrowly escaped death, he was chased by cavalry.
Those dozens of cavalry must be the elite of the rebels. Although they are still some distance away from the front cavalry at this time, if the city gate is opened and the single cavalry in front enters the city, with the speed of the cavalry sprinting, before the city gate closes, dozens of cavalry will
The cavalry was enough to rush to the city gate and prevent the defenders from closing the city.
The gate of a county town is not wide. Dozens of cavalry swarm in, which can completely prevent the defenders from closing the door. As long as they hold on for a moment, the rebel army can rush over and the city gate is broken. There is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and ourselves.
Under such circumstances, Shuning County would also fall.
Qin Xiao was galloping on his horse. The gunshot wound on his right leg was in great pain, but he could only endure it at this moment.
He was thankful in his heart that after taking Kui Mulang hostage, the rebels were indeed suppressed and no one dared to act rashly.
With the rebels' troops, it was not difficult to kill Qin Xiao, who was already injured at that time. However, Qin Xiao would definitely kill Xingjiang first if he made a move.
No one can bear the responsibility for the death of a star general.
Qin Xiao naturally knew that Chi Zesheng had changed. After taking control of Kui Mulang, he did not hesitate too much. He took Kui Mulang hostage and rushed out of the rebel army. The rebels could only watch Qin Xiao pass by in front of their eyes.
Anyone dares to act rashly.
The dozens of cavalrymen under Kuimulang were personally accompanied by the imperial guards, and they were very loyal to Kuimulang. Seeing that Xingjiang was captured, although they did not dare to act rashly, they could not just watch Qin Xiao take Xingjiang away and follow him.
After that, he didn't dare to push too hard, but he didn't dare to let Qin Xiao go away peacefully.
Seeing that Qin Xiao had already arrived at the city gate, the rebels started to raise their troops and were very anxious.
Qin Xiao single-handedly entered the rebel formation and killed dozens of people. When word spread, Qin Xiao was famous all over the world, but the reputation of the Queen Mother Society would be ruined. If it was still
Qin Xiao captured Kuimulang in the Qianjun formation, and the Queen Mother was afraid that she would never see anyone again.
Kui Mulang is the beloved general under You Shen General, and You Shen General has a cruel temperament, but he is very face-conscious. If this matter is known to You Shen General, I am afraid that none of Kui Mulang's personal cavalry will survive.
.
Thinking of General You Shen's terrifying methods, someone in the cavalry finally shouted sternly: "We can't let him bring General Xing into the city and surround him!"
In fact, everyone else has the same idea.
Previously, he was worried that he was pushing too hard. Qin Xiao killed Kui Mulang with one blow, which was really amazing. But at this time, he suddenly thought that even if Qin Xiao did not kill Kui Mulang for a while, he would instead take him into the city.
, then the matter will be even more difficult.
Kui Mulang knows too much about the Queen Mother Association. If it falls into the hands of the army and is tortured to extract a confession, it will be a great disadvantage to the Queen Mother Association.
If General Right knew that Kuimulang was captured alive, he would be so furious that more people would die.
It would be better for Qin Xiao to kill Kui Mulang than to let Kui Mulang become a prisoner of the army.
Many of these cavalrymen thought of this, and when they reacted, they galloped wildly, separated in a fan shape, and their wings accelerated, like a net, towards Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao glanced back, knowing that the group of people had reacted. He looked towards the city gate and saw that She Yue was no longer outside the city. He was slightly relieved, knowing that his plan to risk nine deaths had been successful, and She Yue had already
was put into the city.
"Qin Xiao...!" Above the city, the voice of She Yue could be heard faintly. Qin Xiao, who was in the fourth-level Zhongtian realm, could naturally hear it clearly. He raised his head and looked towards the city. Under the firelight, he saw She Yue.
Yue Zheng was lying between the battlements. Although she could not see her face clearly, she knew that Her Highness the Princess must be worried about herself.
To make Her Royal Highness the Princess worry so much is a sacrifice of one's life.
A long thick rope has been lowered from the top of the city.
Although the city wall is not too short, compared to a huge city like Suzhou City, a small county town is naturally not that high. It is not difficult to find a few long ropes.
"Master Qin, grab the rope and we will pull you up." Dong Guangxiao had a strong inner strength and a loud voice.
Dozens of riders were approaching from behind, and they saw the rope being lowered from the top of the city. Someone already shouted: "He wants to climb the rope to climb the city, we can't let him succeed."
Among the more than thirty cavalry, more than ten are equipped with bows and arrows. The situation is critical. If Qin Xiao is allowed to bring Kui Mulang to the top of the city, the consequences will be disastrous. At this time, there is no other choice. The cavalry archers are galloping.
In the middle, he put away his sword, took his bow, bent his bow and set an arrow. One of them gave an order, and arrows were shot at Qin Xiao one after another.
On the top of the city, he saw that the pursuers had entered the bow and arrow range. Gong Kui personally took the bow in his hand. He was the county lieutenant of Shuning County. If he were the county lieutenant of other counties, he might not be proficient in bows and horses, but he served as the county lieutenant under Dong Guangxiao.
Being able to ride and shoot well is an essential skill.
Gong Kui bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot an arrow at the pursuers behind Qin Xiao. The arrow was like lightning, and with a "pop" sound, it hit a cavalryman, and the cavalryman fell off his horse.
When the other archers at the top of the city saw the county captain taking action, they started shooting arrows one after another without waiting for orders to stop the rebels from chasing Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao's Pegasus arrived at the base of the city wall and saw the thick rope in front of him. He shouted, endured the huge pain in his leg, and grabbed Kuimu Lang with one hand. He flew up from the horse and reached out to grab it.
Caught the thick rope.
"Pull up!" Dong Guangxiao grabbed the thick rope himself, and those powerful gangsters also stepped forward. Seven or eight people grabbed the thick rope at the top of the city and pulled up. She Yue even wanted to step forward to help, but after all, it was
The princess, at this time, still remained reserved.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Arrows shot down from the top of the city were endless, and several rebel cavalry had already been shot off their horses. However, some cavalry braved the rain of arrows from the top of the city and saw Qin Xiao being pulled up to the top of the city little by little by a rope, and they all bent over.
The bow shot towards Qin Xiao.
Qin Xiao was in mid-air and felt arrows coming towards him, unable to dodge. He used his strength to grab Kuimulang and used it as a shield to block his body.
The wound on Kuimulang's broken arm was not treated, and he was bleeding freely. He had already passed out at this moment. He was used as a shield by Qin Xiao, but his subordinates shot arrows at him. Qin Xiao could only hear a groan in his throat, and he didn't know what to do.
I want to know if this star general of the Queen Mother Society has been shot in any vital part.
Although Qin Xiao and Kui Mulang weighed a lot together, fortunately the people at the top of the city were very strong. Qin Xiao held Kui Mulang as a human shield with one hand, and firmly grasped the thick rope with the other. He is now
His arms were so strong that he couldn't move even when he grabbed the thick rope, and his body was quickly pulled towards the city head.
