Chapter 559 (1/2)
Originally quiet street, at this time a noisy.
Because the town was quite prosperous, and trade from all over the world passed through it, the Southern Tang Dynasty attached great importance to it, and stationed 20000 troops here.
At this time, the general stationed outside the town immediately ordered his Duwei to come with 200 soldiers.
The killing of the patrol soldiers was enough to alarm the army.
Other patrol soldiers in the town also heard about it.
However, at this time, Chu Xiaoye has already picked up Catherine and duoya, with the girls running out of the encirclement, is heading out of the town.
The road was blocked, and pursuers from other directions also came.
Chu Xiaoye immediately gave up the original direction and rushed to the territory of the Southern Tang Empire.
Riding on his horse, through the dark night, he can clearly see whether there are soldiers intercepting in front of him. The other party is not prepared at all. Even if he has just received the news, he has no time to respond.
Soon, they rushed out of the town, toward the strange plains continue to run.
The torch swayed behind him, and there were still pursuers.
The captain mounted his horse and continued to chase with his soldiers.
Chu Xiaoye didn't dare to stop and ran all the way with the girls.
Fortunately, these horses given to them by Pangniu are all of the best quality, and they are still full of energy after mutation and unusual constitution.
At this time, the three Willis who were in a coma finally woke up in the turbulence.
Lannie Xi interrupted and told them what happened.
Willis jumped on her horse and said angrily, ”I'm going to kill those bastards!”
Chu Xiaoye turned back: ”if you want to commit suicide and kill us all, go ahead.”
”I'll tell you, shut up!” said Willis, blushing
Thinking that she was nearly taken away and sold to the brothel before, she felt uncomfortable all over her body. Her anger did not start. She slapped her horse's buttocks and said, ”drive!”
Then he ran ahead.
When Duo Ya heard that she had been taken away and rescued, she turned pale and said to Chu Xiaoye, ”thank you, Lord Ye, if there were no you...”
”If it wasn't for me, you would still be the first lady in bingluo city.”
Don't wait for her to finish, Chu small night then turn round to smile a way.
Duo Ya was moved, but she didn't know how to express it. She had to smile.
The pursuers were no longer visible, but the danger was not lifted.
After daybreak, they slowed down and moved on.
Here is a valley, full of flowers and green grass.
The horse had been running all night, thirsty and tired, so he was walking forward while eating grass.
After crossing the valley, they came to a road.
Because of the deviation from the original road, now we do not know where this road leads, we can only follow the established direction and move forward.
After a while, Katherine, who was walking in front of her, stopped suddenly and jumped to the nearby tree with a whoosh. She squinted at the front and began to shake her tail.
”There are people ahead. Be careful!”
Chu Xiaoye immediately got off the horse and ordered lanixi to wait here. He and Catherine went to explore.
Lanisi looked at Denise next to her, and Denise immediately followed her.
If someone finds out, and the number of opponents is not large, Denise's arrow can make the other party dare not chase.
Chu Xiaoye soon saw a group of tall men with machetes.
These men were big, bare chested and ferocious, and were hiding stealthily on both sides of the road, and in the middle of the road there was a big tree.
Obviously, this is a group of robbers ready to block the road.
Chu Xiaoye is carefully counting the number of each other's number, behind suddenly came a burst of horse's hoof sound, is not Lanni Xi several make the sound.
”There's someone in the back, too!”
He immediately took Katherine and Denise back, ready to take lannisi a few abandoned horses, ran into the nearby woods to hide.
But it's too late.
A group of men in uniform dark blue uniform, driving several carriages, came from behind.
Among them, walking in the front are three young men riding tall horses.
Chu Xiaoye looked at the carriages, each with a flag flying in the wind, with the words ”Longwei escort agency” written on them.
At this time, he finally understood.
This is a team of escorts, and those who lie in ambush on both sides of the road in front of them have been informed for a long time, so they ambush here early, ready to rob the darts.
Thinking of this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pulled the horse, gave a few girls a look, let to the roadside.
”Who is ahead?”
The bodyguards are very vigilant. When they see someone on the road, they will stop to ask.One of them, a young man riding a horse, came over with a knife in his waist. He looked at Chu Xiaoye with dignity. When he saw only one boy and the others were young girls, Fang put his heart down and said, ”are you on your way?”
Chu Xiaoye nodded his head and said, ”yes, the horse is a little tired. I'll take a rest on the roadside for a while.”
The young man nodded and waved to the back: ”some young people on the way. It's OK. Let's go.”
Chu Xiaoye took a close look at the team behind him. There were more than 30 people in total. All of them were big men with plain swords on their waists. They all seemed to be martial arts practitioners. However, in the four carriages, they didn't know what they were loaded with.
The bandits in front of him, he just roughly counted, there are about 50 people, it seems that they are not afraid of death.
It is estimated that if we fight in a while, the escort team will probably be wiped out.
Chu Xiaoye was hesitating to remind them. When the first carriage passed by, the curtain of the window suddenly opened. A little girl put out her head and looked at them with big black eyes. Then she said excitedly, ”sister! Sister! It's an elf! They are elves
A girl's face also showed up in the window. She looked at them curiously and nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting. Then she took the little girl in and whispered, ”honey, don't do this. It's very impolite.”
The little girl said in a hurry, ”sister, I still have to watch it! And watch! Many beautiful fairy sisters
In the second carriage, a man's cough sounded suddenly, and then a woman's voice rang out: ”master, this time, we will never go to the border again. You are not in good health. No matter how much money you earn, you can't spend it. What's more, Li'er and Xiaoguai don't like the life there. It's time for little boy to go to school
The man sighed and said, ”since you have brought everything with you, you are not going to come again. There are more and more merchants here. It's really hard to do business. Let's go back to Suzhou and Hangzhou. ”
The woman said with a smile, ”that's the best.”
When the second carriage passed by Chu Xiaoye, Chu Xiaoye could not help but say: ”there is an ambush ahead!”
As soon as this was said, the whole team stopped.
”Little brother, you just said, there is an ambush ahead?”
A man guarding the carriage asked quickly.
Walking in front of the three men, also quickly reined in the horse, looked back.
Chu Xiaoye nodded and said: ”just as we heard the sound, I went to the front alone and found a big tree in the middle of the road. A group of people ran towards the woods on both sides and hid in the ditches on both sides. If I'm right, they should be road robbers. ”
”Bandit?”
The faces of the people suddenly changed.
”Big brother, are they Liu scar Zi? Haven't we already said hello to them? How dare they stop our Longwei escort agency
”It's not necessarily them. It can be someone else.”
”How do they know about this dart? Is there a traitor in our escort agency
”Who doesn't know that we're going out of town? It doesn't have to be a letter from a traitor. If it's a robber, there will naturally be people in the city who will keep an eye on the carriage out of the city. ”
”You stand here to protect the carriage. I'll go with the second and the third. If you know each other, you can give me some hard money.”
The three men who were in the front of the line, after a discussion, immediately rode over.
Soon they saw the big tree in the middle of the road.
By this time, they had confirmed the words of the elf boy.
The road blocking bandits usually have a tree in the middle of the road. When they stop to move the tree, they will attack suddenly and stop them from escaping.
