Longbottom felt a surge of hot blood all over his body. Looking at this dead subordinate, suddenly, even the hairs on his head almost stood up!
His huge body trembled, and Longbottom looked up to the sky and shouted: "I rely on you!!"
His arms, which were already so weak, suddenly started to wave again, and the curled saber was filled with the light of fighting spirit again! His whole body suddenly jumped up, and soared into the sky like a big bird!
Card!!
With one knife, an enemy cavalryman in front of him was knocked off his horse! Longbottom landed next to the enemy cavalryman's horse. With his other hand, he clenched his fist and punched the horse directly with a fierce punch!
The war horse neighed sadly and flew sideways, knocking down the three cavalrymen behind it!
Longbottom strode forward, despite the pain in his calves and the blood flowing profusely, he rushed to the three enemy riders who had fallen from their horses and slashed them to death with one knife!
The last one, he chopped off his head with a knife and held it in his hand!
Longbottom brandished a knife in one hand and held an enemy's head in the other, roaring like a god of death:
"Brothers! Try your best!!! Kill one and you'll earn money, kill two and you'll earn money!!!"
The majestic voice echoed through the night, like a tragic song...
Just a moment before Longbottom and others were attacked...
Hussein sat on the horse and slandered Longbottom all the way.
But after all, he still has to consider how to deal with this hot potato in his hand!
A princess, a future princess...but she was caught by a "horse thief" like herself.
How to solve the following problems?
Should he let himself, the "horse thief leader", lead his men to send these two women back to Loulan City in an honest manner?
That’s just a joke!!
If the matter is exposed, it may lead to even greater trouble.
It's all...blame on that hateful fat man!
Hussein looked at the darkening sky and sighed: "Send the order. Find a place to camp tonight..."
Since we can't take the princess back to Loulan City, we have to take one step at a time. Already before, Hussein had already sent some of his men with the best riding skills to rush to Loulan City. It is expected that there will be about two people.
If you travel at full speed, you can reach the capital in a day and a half at most and report the matter to Du Wei.
Before getting the latest order from Du Wei, I still have to continue to play the role of the leader of the horse thieves.
As he was thinking about it, Hussein suddenly felt his eyelids twitching. There was a strange warning sign in his heart for no reason, as if he had some uneasy premonition.
His heart skipped a few beats... This thumping feeling made Hussein frown tightly.
Huh? What happened to me?
Could it be that he was so angry with that damn fat man? But he seemed to have a bad premonition, as if something was about to happen.
This depressed mood made Hussein feel more and more uncomfortable.
He couldn't help but look up at the sky again, and sighed hard, hoping to exhale the depressed air in his heart.
Huh, Du Wei's order will be sent tomorrow night, right? Although it was a little slow when riding to the place, Du Wei will definitely send a Decepticon to fly over to deliver the message when he learns about the situation here.
When the time comes, Longbottom, you damn fat guy... I see you are still up to something...
Huh? No!!!!
When Hussein thought of this, his heart suddenly shook!!
For a moment, he seemed to have captured a certain idea, and then Hussein, who was sitting on the horse, suddenly laughed.
The laughter was full of mockery and gusts of wind.
Longbottom, Longbottom! Do you think you can trick me so smoothly if you have a trick?
snort!!
Hussein suddenly remembered something that he had ignored: his current embarrassing situation... So, isn't Longbottom embarrassed now?
He acted against himself and disobeyed Du Wei's order. Although he must be feeling happy now, under the current situation, he would never dare to return to Loulan City!
People who have done something wrong will always feel guilty. Calculated this way, he will probably hide far away subconsciously! The further away the better, go out and avoid the limelight! With how cunning this guy is, he will not
I will return to Loulan City to accept my punishment honestly!
Humph, the farther away the better?
Loulan City is in the west! That guy must have gone east!
That’s right! That must be the case!
Hussein's eyes lit up, he suddenly pulled the reins, stopped the horse's hoofs, and then shouted: "Everyone stop! Turn around. Let's go east!!!"
As he spoke, he did not explain to his subordinates, but took the lead. He quickly galloped eastward on his horse.
The cavalrymen did not know what their leader meant, but they faithfully completed the order!
Sure enough, after a short while, Hussein, who had turned around, returned to the main road and passed the place where the "acting" just happened!
"Sir!" A subordinate quickly rode his horse to Hussein's side and said in a low voice: "There are a lot of horse hoof marks on the ground! About a few hundred people passed here and went east!"
Hussein smiled slightly: "It's just as I expected! This fat man did lead his men to turn around and hide in the east! Give the order to catch up at full speed!"
The subordinates couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "This... Sir, we are pretending to be horse thieves now! Horse thieves robbing officers and soldiers are outrageous enough. Where in the world are there horse thieves who dare to openly pursue a group of regular troops?"
Hussein smiled softly and said coldly: "Longbottom dares to mess around, but I don't dare! Hmph, catch up with him. No matter how long it is, I will go up and fight with him first, then pretend to be defeated, and then I will kill the princess."
Throw it away! Whatever he did to me, I will give it back to this damn fat man!"
As soon as a whistle was passed, many groups of "horse thieves" immediately organized their queues, led a carriage behind them, and headed east quickly!
When the sky was completely dark, Hussein, who was riding at the front, was suddenly shocked!
Amid the sound of the wind, screams and screams of death could be heard in the distance! There seemed to be a salty smell of blood in the sound of the wind!!
Hussein squinted his eyes and saw a forest in the distance above the horizon. The faint sound of killing was coming from that direction!
"The entire army is ready for battle! Form up and charge after me! Hurry!!"
The spear struck in the air, and the horse's hooves were like thunder, galloping away!
By this time, Longbottom was at the end of his strength.
Although he still had the scimitar in his hand, he was standing there with corpses in front and behind him, but his body had already been stained with blood through his leather armor and shirt, especially his left calf, which was no longer able to stand at all!
He snatched a spear and stuck it on the ground. He barely supported his body without falling down, and the right hand holding the scimitar was trembling slightly. This was already a sign of exhaustion.
There were densely packed enemies surrounding it. Those pairs of eyes, in the dark night, were like a pack of emotionless wolves, staring at their prey!
Of Longbottom's 300 cavalry, there are now less than thirty left. All thirty of them were injured! After the melee just now, the Tulip family's cavalry paid a heavy price! They were lagging behind in numbers and equipment.
Under such circumstances, with his energy and courage, he was able to hold his opponent back for dear life!
Originally, these enemies followed the plan and took advantage of their superior strength to catch Longbottom off guard. Then, with only two or three heavy armored cavalry charging back and forth, they could completely defeat Longbottom's men!
But in the melee, the elite troops trained by Longbottom burst out with amazing fighting power!
Especially the way Longbottom waved his saber with one hand and lifted the enemy's head inspired the courage of the soldiers! Everyone knew that there was no way out now! Even if he died, he would have to drag someone on his back!
In just a short moment of fierce fighting, the casualty ratio was close to one to one! This number of casualties has far exceeded the opponent's calculations. Moreover, after paying a heavy price, the remaining dozens of Tulip family members successfully succeeded
Come together!
Of the more than thirty people, less than half could barely stand, but everyone gathered around Longbottom, staring at the enemies around them with death-like eyes!
At this moment, the battlefield fell into a brief silence.
"Hahahahahaha!!!" Longbottom looked up to the sky and laughed. Then his laughter suddenly stopped, staring at the enemy, and shouted sternly: "Even if I die here today, I will admit defeat! Where are you guys?
Come, can you make your Grandpa Longbottom understand!!"
As he spoke, the long knife shook and made a buzzing vibration sound.
His voice was like a night owl, his face was like a ghost, and his aura was astonishing! Even the most ruthless enemies, those at the front, were intimidated by his aura and took two steps back unconsciously.
"Why! No one said a word! How dare you do such a big thing and don't even dare to say a word!" Longbottom laughed wildly.
Finally, the enemy's queue slowly separated, and two figures slowly walked out from behind.
The person walking in the lead was a tall and thin man, wearing the same black robe and mask, but there was a hint of respect in his exposed eyes.
When he reached a place about ten steps away from Longbottom, he stopped, as if taking a deep breath, and then actually bowed and performed a warrior's courtesy: "General Longbottom, although we are enemies, I have to
Admit it, you are a warrior!"
Although this person has his face covered, standing there, he naturally exudes an aura!
"Cut the nonsense!" Longbottom smiled grimly.
"I think you should know that you are still standing now, not because of your bravery! But because just now, I ordered my people to stop." The tall and thin man stood up straight, his
The voice didn't sound too young, about thirty or forty years old, and then he stared into Longbottom's eyes: "A warrior like you, don't you know the purpose of my mercy?"
Longbottom was not a fool, and said proudly: "You are here for the princess?!"
"Yes!" The man nodded: "We are here for the princess! Unfortunately, I am disappointed. Shouldn't the princess be with you? General! As long as you tell me..."
"Tell you, will you let us go?" Longbottom smiled disdainfully: "Don't think I'm a fool! You are all dressed in black, with your faces covered, and you are doing such secretive things! Absolutely not
There will be no one left alive!”
"That's right." There was suddenly a hint of pride in this man's voice: "I don't bother to lie! I can also tell you that you and your people are destined to die today. However, I can promise that as long as you
If you can tell me where the princess is, I can let you die in a dignified way...a way that suits your status as a warrior!"
Longbottom was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly.
He pointed at the man in black, pointed at his nose, and said only one sentence: "Fuck your mother!"
Although Longbottom scolded him a few times, this man didn't seem angry. He just sighed: "Since you don't want to, then forget it." After saying that, he just raised his hand and was about to wave it down.
.
Longbottom knew that this gesture naturally meant "kill them all". There were hundreds of people around the opponent, and there were only thirty remnants on his side, and everyone was injured. Moreover, the leader of the opponent seemed to have never taken action just now.
, is obviously also a strong man.
Then as long as his hand falls, everyone on his side will definitely be unlucky!
But at this moment, standing behind the man in black, another man suddenly spoke.
"Wait a moment."
This sound suddenly came out, and Longbottom shivered suddenly! Because there seemed to be some kind of coldness in this sound that could chill people to the bone!
That sound is simply inhuman!
This man had been standing behind the leader in black, but he seemed to be shrouded in darkness, making people unconsciously ignore his existence... It seemed that his body had become one with the darkness.
But as soon as he spoke, he just slowly took half a step forward, and Longbottom suddenly felt a sting in his eyes!
Damn it!
Longbottom just couldn't help but look at this guy's eyes, but he felt a stinging sensation as if he had been burned by fire!
But the leader of the men in black, that majestic guy, suddenly turned around and lowered his head respectfully: "Sir, what are your orders?"
This ghost-like person seemed to laugh softly and pointed in the distance: "There seems to be someone coming over there... I can sense that there seems to be an extremely strong person among the people! Hmm...
