Not only did this dead soldier think that their boss had been killed, the other dead soldiers also wondered if the boss had been killed by the musket just now when they heard that the boss did not respond to the signal.
In addition, the guards were getting closer and closer, and even though the soldiers had received rigorous training, they were a little panicked at this time.
The two dead soldiers closest to the Guards had their disguises damaged the most.
Seeing the guards refilling the gunpowder and iron sand as they walked, their hearts beat faster.
According to the current speed of the guards, by the time they had filled up the gunpowder and iron sand, they would have almost arrived near their hiding spot.
The iron sand had hurt them just now when they were far away. If they walked to the side and fired, they would probably be seriously injured even if they were not killed on the spot.
If Jin Feng is ambushed near Jin Feng's base camp and caught with serious injuries, the outcome will definitely be much worse than being killed directly.
Realizing that the Guards were about to fill up the gunpowder and iron sand, the two Guards finally couldn't bear it anymore, jumped up from the ground and ran towards the woods, trying to escape before the Guards got closer.
"Just waiting for you!"
The two guards walking at the front squatted down at the same time and raised their muskets.
Their muskets were not fired in the previous salvo, and there was no need to refill them now.
First, they walked at the front to act as human shields, using their hands and arms to protect the vital points of their necks and faces.
The second thing is that the deputy captain specifically told them before the operation that the two of them would not participate in the volley, in case someone wanted to run away after the volley and they would not be able to stop them in time.
Unexpectedly, the vice-captain really got it right.
If the dead soldiers had continued to lurk, the guards would not have discovered them, but now that they have rushed out, they have become living targets.
After the two squatted down, they pulled the trigger almost simultaneously.
When the two dead soldiers heard the sound of gunfire, they subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the damage range of the musket was too large, and they could not dodge at all.
Both of them were hit and staggered to the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
When the few remaining dead soldiers saw the fate of their companions, two more people couldn't bear it anymore and threw grenades at the guards.
"Be careful with grenades!"
The deputy captain of the guard shouted loudly.
The situation he was most worried about appeared.
The guards are all wearing armor. Ordinary hand crossbows can't penetrate them at all, but armor can't stop grenades.
There are too many gaps at the joints of the armor, especially the visor. In order to ensure visibility, the visor is made of iron mesh.
This kind of visor can block arrows to a certain extent, but it cannot block the huge amount of iron sand filled in the grenade.
However, the guards also have ways to deal with grenades.
I saw the guards taking a few steps to the left at the same time, then falling to the ground, curling up with their hands on their heads, using the smallest body area to deal with the explosion.
The grenade landed at their previous location and exploded!
At this time, intensive sound of horse hooves could be heard from the direction of Tin Can Mountain. The dead soldiers knew that Jin Feng's reinforcements had arrived. If they didn't leave, they would really not be able to leave!
This is their last chance to retreat!
Then all the dead soldiers rushed out in unison and ran towards the woods behind them.
At this time, the guards were still lying on the ground.

Upon discovering that the dead soldier was escaping, the guards did not immediately start to pursue him. Instead, they quickly put away their muskets, took out the hand crossbows at their waists, and each pulled the trigger at the dead soldier's back.
Unfortunately, the dead soldiers were too experienced and they all moved in a zigzag pattern when escaping. The guards did not hit any of them and could only take out their muskets and continue to fill them with gunpowder and iron sand.
By the time they finished filling in, the dead soldiers had already run away.
Just when the deputy captain of the personal guard was hesitating whether to pursue or not, he suddenly saw Bing'er emerge from the rock where she was hiding and pursue a dead soldier.
"If she didn't hide well, why would she come out?"
The vice-captain stomped his feet in anger.
Their mission was to protect Bing'er. Now that the dead man had been frightened away and Bing'er was safe, who knew she would run out again.
Behind the boulder where Jin Feng and others were hiding, an escort found a crack from which he could observe the outside.
The escort was squatting behind the crack, observing and reporting the situation to Jin Feng.
"The enemy ran away...Captain and the others fired arrows...missed...Oh, why did Miss Bing'er chase her out?"
"What, Bing'er chased her out?" Jin Feng was shocked when he heard this, and turned to look at Princess Lu Jie: "Hurry up and call her back!"
Who knew that instead of calling Bing'er, Princess Lu Jie said to Shuang'er: "Hurry up and help Bing'er. At least one of you two will be brought back alive!"
Jin Feng came to his senses when he heard what Princess Lu Jie said.
From the perspective of others, there were too many coincidences with Princess Lu Jie today. It was difficult for Princess Lu Jie to explain clearly, so she had to capture at least one living person to prove her innocence.
I'm afraid Bing'er also thought of this, so she rushed out to chase the dead man!
Shuang'er also thought of this, but she was worried about Princess Lu Jie: "I'm leaving too, what will your Highness do?"
"I'm staying with my husband, there's nothing to worry about!" Princess Lu Jie urged: "Hurry up, or you won't be able to catch up!"
"Sir, I leave it to you, Your Highness!"
Shuang'er cupped her hands towards Jin Feng, flew up from behind the boulder, and flew towards the direction Bing'er left.
The vice-captain looked at Shuang'er, then looked back at the location of the boulder where Jin Feng was. He didn't know what to do for a moment, so he turned around and shouted: "Sir, are you going to chase me or not?"
At this time, the sound of horse hooves coming from the direction of Iron Can Mountain was like thunder. In three minutes at most, the large troops from Iron Can Mountain would arrive.
So Jin Feng shouted loudly: "Chase!"
"yes!"
The deputy captain agreed and gave the order: "Aquan, on your left, on my right!"
Two squads of guards, one on the left and one on the right, rushed into the forest!
In the direction of Iron Can Mountain, Zuo Feifei took the lead and rushed out from the foot of the mountain.
Behind her, the escorts filed out from the foot of the mountain on horseback like flowing water. More than half of the escorts were not wearing armor, and a few were not even wearing shoes. They should be the escorts who were taking a break. When they saw the sound of arrows,
He came immediately on horseback.
"Feifei, I'm here!"
Jin Feng raised his hand to signal to Zuo Feifei.
When Zuo Feifei saw that Jin Feng was safe and sound, her anxious heart finally fell to the ground.
As long as Jin Feng is fine, everything else is easy!
At this time, the guards had just rushed to the edge of the woods. Zuo Feifei turned around and shouted behind her: "Niao Niao, take the people with me."
