The rain was getting heavier, the thunder was roaring, the strong wind seemed to be uprooting the trees, and the sound of the surrounding footsteps became more and more clear.

Everyone clenched the handle of the knife in their hands.

Just when they thought it was really the end of the mountain, suddenly, as if a gust of wind passed by, a dozen men in black suddenly appeared in front of them.

As silent as a ghost, these people are all dressed in black clothes, the long sword in their hands is stained with blood, the leader is pale, and his eyes are not alive - but it is Xuan Wuyi who was sent to secretly protect Xie Hou pedestrian!

So, why are there so many enemies, but Xie Hou and the others were able to hide here almost safely for almost an hour?Even if someone finds it, it's just a few people, just enough to be dealt with by them?

Because as long as they are found, most of them have been solved by Xuan Wuyi and the others.

It's just that the enemy has too many people and it's impossible to defend against them. In the end, the signal was sent out by stealth. Everyone knows that there will be a fierce battle next.

Xuan Wu's voice was hoarse, as if he didn't speak often: "Your Majesty and General Xie have ordered you to protect Lord Hou. Please rest assured, Lord Hou has sent someone to report to the imperial city an hour ago. The reinforcements will arrive soon." Come."

... As long as they can persist in the siege, but there are so many enemies, can they really survive until then?

Xie Hou was startled, because he had never noticed that someone was lurking in secret, but now the situation is changing rapidly, he couldn't help him to think about it, he just asked: "How many people are there in the enemy?"

Xuan Wu replied: "There are three thousand left."

——There are less than 50 of them.

But they all raised their long knives without flinching, and there seemed to be fire in their eyes.

"I won't go," said Xu Yaoling, his voice was deep and hoarse, but extremely firm, "I have already escaped once, and I will never escape again this time!"

I promised Ling Yu that as long as I, Xu Yaoling, have breath, Xie Hou will be fine!

The lightning flashed across the sky like a sharp blade, illuminating the sky and the earth as if it were daytime, while the enemy's face was ferocious, and they pressed on every step of the way.

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

The sound of killing seemed to contain a thousand pounds of force, the sound of the sword hitting continued, and the blood mixed into the rain.The enemies swarmed up from all directions like locusts, but the surrounded people went forward without flinching at all.

——As long as you persevere, persevere until the reinforcements arrive, persevere until the brothers who died for innocents finally understand!

.........

A quarter of an hour ago, the Forbidden Army Camp in the Imperial City.

The Forbidden Army camp was located on the outskirts of the imperial city, with a total of more than [-] people. It was night, and everything was silent, only the sound of soldiers on duty walking around.

Suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes rushing, and it was getting closer and closer.The guard at the guard post cheered up and shouted sharply, "Who is here?"

The sound of horseshoes stopped at the door, and the night watchmen only saw about one or two hundred people coming by the dim light.

The two leaders rode two horses, one black and one white. The man on the white horse was dressed in a black robe with patterns embroidered with gold silk, and the one riding on the black horse was the one they once had. The Major General Xie Lingyu!

Their expressions were so anxious and urgent that the night watchman couldn't help but panic: "The general came late at night, but what happened?"

Xie Linghe held up the tiger talisman, and shouted in a stern voice: "The Emperor ordered that Marquis Wu An led two thousand soldiers back to the imperial city, but was ambushed on the way. Now order me to lead ten thousand soldiers to rescue, there is no delay!"

The soldier didn't dare to delay any longer when he heard the words, he hurriedly opened the gate and blew the horn to wake up the night.The sound of the horns was deep and distant, but after a while, most of the soldiers were fully dressed and stood neatly on the school field.

Xie Linghe's expression was stern, but under the immovable appearance, he was burning with anxiety: "All generals, listen to my orders! The first, second, and fourth battalions come out and follow me to the rescue!"

The soldiers who were ordered out shouted in unison: "Yes!"

"slow--"

But there was a blocking voice, and Xie Ling and looked back, only to see a man with short stature rushing towards him. It was after Xie Hou went to the frontier, the newly appointed commander of the Forbidden Army Battalion, Emperor Jing Ren's confidant— — Guo Cheng.

This Guo Cheng's expression was extremely ugly, and he almost jumped into a rage: "Xie Lingyu, you are so courageous! Deploying troops without permission, do you want to rebel!"

Xie Linghe's voice was cold and stern, with convincing force: "Here is the password of the Tiger Talisman personally issued by the Holy Majesty, who would dare not obey?"

Guo Cheng's voice suddenly became higher: "Now I am the commander of the imperial army! Why have you never received the emperor's password? I think your tiger charm is fake, but the private password is true!"

Xie Lingyu clenched the tiger talisman in his hand.

The reason is the same, only because the tiger talisman and the so-called "edict" of the emperor are indeed fake.

But even if he is held accountable afterwards, he must transfer these ten thousand troops!

Seeing him stop, Guo Cheng was full of complacency on his face, and just about to reprimand him, a voice came over.

"You don't believe the oral order token, what? Don't you believe me when I come to the barracks in person?"

A figure came out from behind Xie Ling and, Guo Cheng couldn't help being horrified when he saw the person clearly through the night.Just because the robe on this person's body was embroidered with four-clawed dragon pattern with gold thread, it was none other than He Yiqing!

But now who has not known that this eldest prince is the future prince of Daqian?

Guo Cheng panicked, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "I see His Highness the First Prince for the humble position, and I can't hold back my words. I hope His Highness will make amends."

He Yiqing's face was condensed: "Why are you still in a daze? The situation is urgent, the soldiers who were called just now come out!"

And that Guo Cheng's face turned green and pale, and he didn't dare to stop him.

Xie Linghe tightened the reins: "Everyone! Come with me!"

The voices of ten thousand soldiers were high and uniform: "Yes!"

Xie Ling and the two galloped forward on horseback, ten thousand soldiers followed behind them, chasing in the wind and burning with anxiety.

Definitely... But you must persist until they catch up!

.........

Heavy rain.

The rainwater on the ground has turned into blood, and corpses are scattered all over the field. Some people never let go of the sword in their hands until they fell down.

And there are only two people who are still standing with their swords.

Those two people were wearing black strong clothes, they were the hidden guards under He Yiqing's subordinates, their bodies were covered in blood at the moment, and their wounds were turned outward, but they didn't seem to feel the slightest pain, and the hand holding the sword was still as steady as a rock.

The enemies were densely packed, rushing up like wild dogs, trying to tear a piece of flesh from under them, but they were chopped off by the sword again.

But even if there were a huge number of them, they couldn't hurt the people who were guarded by the two hidden guards.

Xie Hou sat in a pool of blood, holding Xu Yaoling who was about to lose consciousness in his arms.

His eyes were blood red, as if he was about to shed tears of blood: "Yao Ling, don't sleep... Hold on! Reinforcements are coming soon, wake up!"

Xu Yaoling blocked a sword that went straight into the heart for him before, but was stabbed in the abdomen, and now he is unconscious.

Xie Hou hugged him tightly, with angry and sad eyes, looking straight ahead.

He didn't even know how long it had been... half an hour?an hour?He could only see his brothers fall one by one, but the enemies that surged up seemed endless.

It's all his fault, he only thought that it would be good to be loyal to the people of this world, even if he didn't care about the shroud of horse leather, but he never thought that the person on the throne had become so suspicious and cruel!These are two thousand elite soldiers who just came down from the battlefield. They survived from the battlefield by narrow escape, but died in the suspicion of the emperor.

He was going to bring the great heroes back home, but he let them die at the door of the house.

Xu Yaoling's consciousness was hazy, he couldn't see clearly, he could only vaguely hear someone calling him, but after all, he was getting farther and farther away.

...Is he going to die?

Well, thinking of Xu Yaoling's lips showing a smile, he should have died long ago.

He should have died on that bloody night long ago, and he still remembered that the heavy rain that day was exactly the same as tonight.The ghosts of hundreds of people in the whole house were too heavy, too heavy, so heavy that he was awakened by nightmares every night, and his eyes were blood red.

To be able to save Uncle Xie's life before he died was a worthy death.

Xu Yaoling was vague, and suddenly remembered the last time he met Xie Lingyu. The man's Adam's apple trembled, and finally he only said "Don't regret it".

He never regretted it, even if it was beyond recognition, he never regretted it.

At the end of his consciousness, Xu Yaoling seemed to hear the sound of thousands of soldiers galloping towards him, and there was a voice that was very similar to Xie Lingyu, but after all, he no longer had the strength to open his eyes and fell into the darkness.

------

------

The dust has settled, and the sky is dimming.

The lights in the prince's mansion were brightly lit, and the attendants came and went in a hurry, their faces flustered.

Xie Linghe watched pots of blood coming out of the room, and kept pacing, his clenched fists almost bursting with veins.

At the last moment, they finally arrived.

Except for the two hidden guards, Xie Hou and Xu Yaoling, there were only five people left.But even if there was still one breath left, the injury was extremely serious, and the doctor shook his head repeatedly as soon as he entered, fearing that it was more or less ominous.

Xu Yaoling hadn't woken up from a coma, and Xie Hou finally passed out after waiting for reinforcements.

Hearing footsteps approaching, Xie Lingyu turned around and asked quickly, "What's the matter?"

He Yiqing was holding the medicine tray: "Xie Hou only fainted due to exhaustion and old injuries that haven't healed. It's nothing serious. It's just that Xu Yaoling... was hit in the abdomen by a sword and is still being rescued."

Xie Lingyu took a step back, stunned and speechless.

"Don't worry, Uncle Fang is here," He Yiqing said softly, carefully attaching Xie Lingyu's left arm, "Look at you, you don't even know you're injured."

Xie Ling and Jue couldn't feel the pain at all, and the pain and anger in their hearts finally melted into one sentence: "I must make them pay the price!"

"Definitely." He Yiqing also said in a cold voice, "It's a blessing in misfortune to have saved Master Hou and the others."

Having said that, he paused, looked at Xie Ling and his tired face, and persuaded him: "Go inside and rest for a while, we will pass on false edicts and forge tiger charms, and there will be a tough battle to be fought later."

But at that time, there was no other way except to go to the forbidden barracks to transfer troops.

Xie Lingyu shook his head: "How can I sleep?"

"Then don't stand still, just sit for a while." He Yiqing pulled him onto a chair, and continued, "Those people all wear tokens of the abolished prince, but I think things are definitely not that simple."

Xie Lingyu also thinks so, there is no other reason, then He Mingrui has been crippled for such a long time, and where did he transfer so many people?Apart from arousing public outrage, what good could this ambush do for him?

The person behind it is definitely not the abolished prince, but someone else.

Xie Ling and He Yiqing looked at each other, and they both saw the same name in each other's eyes

——Emperor Jingren.
