Chapter 1509 escape

The correct head of the musket was very bad, but that was a long distance. The tiger-shaped musketman outside Ciyun Temple was only about ten steps away from the temple wall.

At such a close distance, not to mention that several muskets shot at the same target at the same time, even if one musket shot at the target, it is very likely to hit.

The archer who leaned out of the temple wall was shot and fell into the back of the temple wall, while the arrows of the hand gun remained outside the temple wall.

A soldier bent down and ran to the base of the temple wall, picked up the bow and arrow on the ground, turned around and ran back.

"The King of Ying, the other party's bow and arrow."

The bow and arrow picked up from under the temple wall was handed to Liu Qingzhou's hands.

Liu Qingzhou took it in his hand and looked at it.

At this time, the captain of the war soldiers standing next to him spoke, "This is a standard longbow used by the border army. Nowadays, most of them are adopted by the personal soldiers and servants. The camp is in charge. It seems that the people tied to Ciyun Temple by us are big figures in the border army."

"Yes, maybe Wang Bao will hide it inside." Liu Qingzhou looked at Ciyun Temple in front of him.

He had a kind of intuition that Wang Bao, the general of Xuanfu, hid in the temple.

The officers and soldiers hiding in Ciyun Temple knew that the temple had been besieged by the tiger flag army. After testing it once, there was no movement inside.

Liu Qingzhou, who was guarding outside the temple, did not rush to attack Ciyun Temple, but just asked his subordinates to surround them and prevented the people inside from escaping from the temple.

The situation has calmed down.

This situation continues with a bag of cigarettes.

A warrior came from afar and came to Liu Qingzhou in front of Ciyun Temple. He said breathlessly: "Battle, the camp is in charge, the cannon is here."

As he said that, he looked back and pointed behind him.

Liu Qingzhou's eyes looked in the direction of the man's finger.

A little further away, two cannon trucks were driving towards Ciyun Temple with two four-pound cannons.

"There is movement behind the temple wall, and someone is hiding behind it." A soldier who had been staring at the movement of the temple suddenly spoke.

Liu Qingzhou glanced at Ciyun Temple in front of him and snorted coldly.

It is obvious that the people in the temple must be staring at the situation outside, and they must have heard of the cannons being transported outside Ciyun Temple.

"Don't pay attention to them. In the past, a few people helped the gunners transport the guns." Liu Qingzhou explained to his subordinates.

More than a dozen soldiers ran away from Ciyun Temple and went to the street to help the gunners push the cannon trucks.

"The general is not good, the bandits have come to fire, and are ready to bombard Ciyun Temple." A servant wearing cotton armor hurried into the hall.

Nearly a hundred officials gathered around the main hall of Ciyun Temple, and more than a dozen border troops dressed in the main hall were guarding it.

Wang Bao, who was kneeling on the cushion, respectfully kowtowed to the Buddha statue in front of him, got up and inserted the incense in his hand into the incense burner. Then he turned around and looked at the person who came in to deliver the letter and asked, "How many cannons are there?"

"I can't hear it clearly, I only heard the cannons coming." The personal soldiers returned.

boom!

The sound of cannons suddenly sounded, and Wang Bao's face turned pale.

"General, Ciyun Temple cannot be defended anymore, so let your subordinates escort you to escape first!" The personal soldiers next to him advised Wang Bao to leave.

Even the city wall of Zhenyuanmen could not stand a few shots. No matter how tall and hard the temple wall of Ciyun Temple was, it was just far inferior to the city wall of Tianchengwei compared with the courtyard walls of ordinary families in the city.

Wang Bao looked bitter and said, "Where can you escape? Now the entire Tianchengwei is probably in the hands of the bandits."

"General, stay with the green mountains without worrying about burning firewood. As long as you escape, you may not have no chance to lead the army to deal with these chaotic bandits in the future." The personal soldiers on the side persuaded.

Wang Bao sighed and said, "There are being surrounded by bandits outside Ciyun Temple. If you want to leave Ciyun Temple, you will definitely reach the sky. All I can do is to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty."

As he said that, he pulled out the knife from his hand and stretched it across his neck.

"General, there is still a chance." The personal soldiers next to him stepped forward and seized the knife from Wang Bao's hand. He immediately said, "The subordinate sent someone to ask the monks in the temple. The abbot here said that there is a secret passage in Ciyun Temple, which leads to outside the temple. General, you can leave from the secret passage and then escape from Tianchengwei while the chaos."

"Is there a secret passage?" Wang Bao asked hesitantly.

The personal soldier nodded seriously and said, "Yes, there is a secret passage leading out of it, but it just can't accommodate so many people to escape from the secret passage."

The meaning of the words is very obvious. Most people need to be left behind to resist the army of tiger-shaped flags attacking Ciyun Temple, delaying time, and giving Wang Bao enough time to escape.

"Go and find the abbot quickly, no, I will go with you." With hope of escaping, Wang Bao's desperation dissipated.

As soon as he took a few steps, he turned around and said, "Some people come and go with me, and the others stay here and wait for me to come back."

After saying that, he urged him to tell him that there was a secret passage to go to find the abbot of the temple.

The monks in Ciyun Temple were driven to the monk's room and detained, and there was no need to go to other places to find the abbot of the temple.

"You two go in and bring the abbot of the temple out." Wang Bao ordered the personal soldiers next to him.

Two personal soldiers rushed into the monk's room.

After a chaotic situation inside, a fat monk was taken out.

"Are you the abbot here?" Wang Bao asked at the fat monk in front of him.

The fat monk trembled and said, "I'll report to the general that the little monk is the abbot of Ciyun Temple."

"I heard that there is a secret passage in Ciyun Temple that leads directly to the outside of the city. Take me to find the secret passage." Wang Bao asked straight to the point.

The situation outside could no longer tolerate him saying unnecessary things.

"The little monk will take you here." The fat monk did not dare to refuse and agreed to take Wang Bao to find a secret passage.

The fat monk walked in front to lead the way, and two personal soldiers followed closely, grabbing the palms on the hilt of the knife. As long as the fat monk was playing tricks, he could draw out the knife at any time, and the other party was defeated.

The fat monk did not use any tricks and honestly brought Wang Bao and others to his meditation room.

"General, I secretly said that it was in the little monk's Zen room." The fat monk was afraid that the soldiers with swords around him would misunderstand, so he walked in front of the Zen room and explained to himself.

Boom!

A sound different from the sound of cannons came out, and Wang Bao knew that it should be that the wall of Ciyun Temple was bombarded by cannons.

Sure enough, the shouts of killing came quickly.

"Let's lead the way quickly, otherwise I will kill you immediately." Wang Bao was worried that the soldiers with the tiger flag would come over and threatened the fat monk to lead the way quickly.

The fat monk also understood the crisis outside, so he walked a few steps and rushed into the meditation room.

Four or five personal soldiers around Wang Baohe followed him into the Zen room.

"General, behind this cabinet is the secret passage leading to the outside of the temple. Please send your subordinates to move the cabinet." The fat monk pointed at the cabinet in the Zen room and said.

"You two go and move the cabinet away." Wang Bao winked at the two personal soldiers beside him.
