MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 515 chasing soldiers
Chapter 515 Chasing soldiers
"There are women in the team, they are not under Commander Lei!"
Following this shout, there was a commotion at the city gate.
The guard rushed out without even putting on his coat, shouting, "Hurry up!"
In normal times, the guards are sleeping soundly at this time, and their actions will be slow, but tonight is too evil, and the city gate has been opened three times, and the guard has already told his subordinates to pay attention to the movement.
As a result, many guards soon chased them out, and more than a dozen archers stood on the city wall.
The cold arrow pierced the night sky, and there were several screams immediately.
Afterwards, pursuers poured out, and their own people screamed miserably, which completely broke the will of Ba Yiniang, and her legs gave way and she fell forward.
A hand stretched out and lifted Ba Yiniang up.
Hong Dou dragged Eighth Auntie while running and cursed: "You're so old, why are you yelling, is it over now?"
The team that originally crossed the bridge in an orderly manner fell into chaos for a while.
The entire team, Yundong, led some Jinlin Guards to walk in the front, and in the middle were everyone from the Luo Mansion. Among the people in the Luo Mansion, the women's family members walked in front, and the governor of Luo Dadu walked behind.
Hearing Ba Yiniang's exclamation, Governor Luo knew something was wrong, drew his knife, turned around and shouted: "Cut the bridge!"
Jin Linwei, who was in charge of breaking the rope, immediately drew his sword and slashed at the rope one after another.
Arrows fell like raindrops, and Governor Luo waved a long knife to block them.
"Governor, hurry up!" A Jinlin guard stood in front of the Great Governor, anxiously urging.
The night was dark and the screams were overwhelming. Governor Luo gritted his teeth, and retreated quickly against the arrows facing the city gate.
The rain of arrows stopped for a while, and the pursuers had already boarded the bridge.
A dozen Jinlin Guards formed a human wall to block the pursuers, and one of them shouted, "Hurry up!"
The companions behind him slashed at the chains desperately.
Finally heard the sound of the chain breaking, Jin Linwei who was still in time rushed to the opposite bank, but Jin Linwei who was too late and Jin Linwei who formed a human wall to block the pursuers fell into the river.
The pursuers also fell down together.
Plopping sounded one after another, followed by the guard's roar: "Damn it!"
Seeing that the team that got out of the city was gradually running away, the guard said decisively: "Cross the river!"
From the anomaly of Governor Lei leading the troops into the city at night, we can know that something big must have happened tonight. If something goes wrong here, he can only die, and the only way to survive is to stop people.
The Jinlin Guards brought by Yundong and the people of the Luo Mansion numbered thousands of people, but the team was too complicated. Although Broken Bridge bought a lot of time, the pursuers were getting closer and closer.
Hong Dou dragged Ba Yiniang out of breath.
Ba Yiniang choked up and said, "Put me down, I'm just a burden—"
"Shut up!" Hongdou rolled her eyes and quickened her pace.
Seeing that the female family members in the team could no longer hold on, Governor Luo shouted: "Stop!"
The whole team stopped immediately.
Grandmaster Luo clenched his long knife tightly, looked in the direction of the west gate and said calmly: "Limited physical strength, it is impossible to run forever, let's deal with these chasing soldiers first!"
All the subordinates gathered around Chief Governor Luo, all holding long knives, looking resolutely in that direction.
Since this battle is inevitable, let's come.
Hongdou let go of Aunt Ba, panted heavily with her hands on her hips: "I'm so exhausted—"
Before she finished speaking, the little servant girl stared at Aunt Ba with her eyes wide open.
Ba Yiniang had a dagger stuck in her belly, with a miserable smile on her lips, she said intermittently: "Yes, I'm sorry..."
"Eight Sister (Eight Sister)—" All the aunts surrounded her.
Governor Luo came over when he heard the movement.
Ba Yiniang trembled her eyes, and took a hard look at Governor Luo.
Luo Dadu squatted down, frowned and said: "Old Ba, why are you doing this..."
There are too many aunts, he didn't hear it for a while in the secret passage, but just now on the moat bridge, he heard it all at once: it's Lao Ba who caused trouble.
At that moment, he also felt angry to beat the woman up, but if he said he regretted taking her out of the city, he didn't.
Aren’t these old men just to protect women? If they encounter danger and leave the old, weak, women and children to die, how is that different from animals?
Ba Yiniang's face was pale, and her anger was as thin as silk: "Master, concubine... I can't hold back anymore... I'm sorry everyone—"
Ba Yiniang swallowed her breath with her eyes wide open. Before she lost consciousness, she didn't see any disgust on the master's face.
A tear trickled down the corner of Ba Yiniang's eyes.
There seemed to be a light in front of her eyes, and through the light, she saw a slim girl in pink clothes being embraced by a tall man.
The man said to her: "Old Ba, since you have come to Luo Mansion, you can live in peace of mind. You can wear silk and satin as you like, and eat as you like, but there is one thing, you are not allowed to play tricks on the children."
She did it, and sure enough, she was happy and stable from then on, becoming the most comfortable few years in her short life.
But she is a bit greedy. If she wants to follow the master in the next life, she can not eat delicacies from mountains and seas, and don’t wear silk and satin. She just wants to have a beautiful daughter like girls, and call the master father and her mother.
Low sobs sounded around Ba Yiniang's body.
The aunts quietly touched the dagger hidden in their sleeves.
It was prepared after getting the news, and it was handed over, so that it would not fall into the hands of the enemy and be humiliated when the situation was exhausted.
Looking at the dead body of the eighth aunt, the aunts all had a thought at the same time: Maybe the purpose of this dagger is not just to avoid being humiliated.
Bamei is right, they are actually dragging their feet. Now at least a dozen guards have died because of Bamei. Who knows how many people will be killed because of them next time?
Without them—
Governor Luo was able to have the status he has today, of course he is not a person who is brave and foolhardy. Seeing that his aunts looked strange, he scolded: "You stupid women, don't think about what you have. If you really want to die, you have to wait for us men to die. Say it again!"
"Master—" the aunts hesitated to speak.
Luo Dadu said unhappily: "The pursuers are coming soon, don't let me be distracted!"
The footsteps are getting closer.
There are more than two hundred people catching up, which is the number of permanent guards at each city gate. If there is a situation that cannot be dealt with, it will immediately send a message and mobilize manpower.
However, the capital city has been stable for a long time. Even if the fire alarm is issued, it will not take a short time for the brigade to arrive. What Governor Luo has to do is to deal with these pursuers as soon as possible to buy time for escape.
Seeing that the pursuers were approaching, Governor Luo tensed up and prepared to attack. Suddenly, a rain of arrows flew out from nowhere, and the pursuers immediately fell down.
"There is an ambush!" The pursuers and their own people shouted in unison.
Governor Luo was stunned.
Got... reinforcements?
After a short period of sluggishness, Governor Luo immediately looked at Yundong.
The adopted son who had always been calm shook his head blankly: "It's not me."
At this time, Luo Sheng whispered: "Father, why don't you try to persuade the pursuers to escape with us."
Governor Luo:?
