Chapter 200: Chasing Troops
Xie Qing's medical skills may not be exquisite, but he is still at a certain level. He cut the wound on Sun Sui's back accurately and quickly, took out the lead bullet, and then used a needle and thread to sew the wound shut.
Xie Erjian and Fan Yi were both capable of killing people, but when they saw human flesh being sewn like cloth, they still felt a little numb and subconsciously turned around.
Xie Qing broke out in a cold sweat after sewing the wound. After cleaning his hands, he applied gold wound medicine and other medicines on the wound, and then wrapped it with a cloth. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "The method of stitching the wound, Xianxiu, is really good."
It works, the bleeding has stopped, and if nothing unexpected happens, Mr. Sun should be able to survive."
Xie Erjian and Fan Yi looked at each other happily. The latter solemnly saluted Xu Jin and Xie Qing and said gratefully: "Thank you Mr. Xu and Uncle Xie for saving you."
"You're welcome, General Fan!" Xu Jin waved his hand. Although the lead bullet was taken out, Sun Sui was obviously not happy with his situation. After all, he was an old man in his sixties, and it was still unknown whether he could survive it.
"What is the situation in Nanchang City now? How did it happen?" Xu Jin asked calmly. He wanted to analyze the situation first and then make next plans.
Fan Yi said solemnly: "Now Nanchang City has probably completely fallen into the control of Prince Ning."
Next, Fan Yi and Xie Erjian briefly told what happened.
It turned out that the day before the Lantern Festival, King Ning had posted a banquet inviting all local officials in Nanchang to celebrate the festival. The next day, most of the officials in Nanchang went there. Sun Sui had been wary of King Ning, so he was in poor health.
He declined due to illness and did not attend the banquet at Prince Ning's Mansion.
However, on that day, King Ning suddenly launched an attack and sent troops to besiege the governor's Yamen. Sun Sui, under the desperate protection of three hundred soldiers, broke out of the siege and fled to the north gate of the city. King Ning apparently made a hasty decision to attack the governor's Yamen, so he prepared
The victory was not sufficient, but Sun Sui's soldiers broke through the city gate and escaped from Nanchang City.
Of course, Sun Sui's personal guards also paid a heavy price. There were only less than fifty people left out of three hundred, and in the melee, Sun Sui himself was hit by a stray bullet.
The pursuers were chasing after him. The situation was critical, and Sun Sui himself was seriously injured. The soldiers were leaderless and didn't know what to do. Finally, Xie Erjian decided to escort Sun Sui back to his hometown to ask his father for treatment, so dozens of soldiers protected him.
Following Sun Sui, he drove straight to Ruihong Town, Yugan County without stopping, and on the way got rid of several chasing troops sent by King Ning.
Xu Jin felt very heavy after listening to what Fan Yi and Xie Erjian said. It seems that the local officials in Nanchang have been wiped out by King Ning. They must either surrender or die for justice. Therefore, there is no hope for the two local guards in Nanchang.
When they got there, their immediate superiors were either detained and killed, or they had surrendered to King Ning.
"Mr. Xu, what should we do next?"
Fan Yi looked at Xu Jin's young and fair face and asked such a question. He felt strange in his heart, but he couldn't help but ask because of Xu Jin's calm and calm temperament and a series of calm and sophisticated performances just now.
, it is difficult for people to treat him as a young man. No wonder Mr. Sun thinks so highly of this son and consults him on all important matters when he is in Nanchang.
Xu Jin calmly analyzed: "King Ning will definitely not let Master Sun go. After he stabilizes Nanchang City, he will most likely send more troops to chase him. Without further ado, we will prepare to leave immediately."
"Where to go?" Fan Yi and the Xie family asked almost in unison.
Xu Jin said: "First go to Qianshan to find Mr. Fei Ge, and then call on nearby prefectures and counties to raise troops to put down the rebellion!"
Fan Yi nodded and gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, then go to Qianshan and use the prestige of Mr. Fei Ge to make a shout. The people who should respond will definitely gather together and raise an army to destroy the traitor King Ning!"
Xie Erjian clenched his fists when he heard this, and his blood boiled all over. More than 300 brothers who had been with him day and night were almost killed or injured. How could he not hate? How could he not be angry?
In fact, the real purpose of Xu Jin's proposal to rush to Qianshan County was not to gather people to fight against King Ning, but to worry about the safety of the Fei family. As a bachelor of Fei's cabinet, King Ning would definitely not let him go.
, when he frees up his hands, he will definitely send troops to Qianshan to hunt down Master Fei. By then, the whole Fei family will suffer disaster, so they must rush to inform them immediately.
As for gathering troops and horses to put down the rebellion, someone will naturally do it. Wang Shouren, the governor of Southern Jiangxi, is not a vegetarian. Prince Ning should just ask for his blessings.
At that moment, everyone took action, preparing carriages, food, etc. Wang Cuihua, who had just passed the door, stood aside and watched helplessly. She was still wearing a bright red wedding dress and her face was extremely pale.
Xie Yidao said apologetically: "Sister Hua, you'd better take off your wedding clothes and go back to your parents' home for a while. I'll come back to pick you up after the limelight is over. It's very dangerous to follow us."
Wang Cuihua hesitated for a moment, shook her head and said: "Brother Yidao, if Cuihua comes with you, she will live as a member of the Xie family and die as a ghost of the Xie family!"
Xie Yidao was so moved that he couldn't help but grab his wife's hand and said firmly: "Sister Hua...as long as I am still breathing, I will definitely protect you."
Xu Jin frowned and ordered: "Xiao Wan, take your sister-in-law to change clothes quickly. Time is tight and we can't delay any more."
"Oh!" Xie Xiaowan quickly stepped forward to hold Wang Cuihua and said softly: "Sister-in-law, your clothes are too conspicuous. Come on, I will take you to change clothes."
Half an hour later, everything was ready, and the sleepy Sun Sui was carried to a cart and lay down on his stomach, with two layers of quilts underneath and two more layers on top.
Just as everyone was preparing to set off, the rapid sound of horse hooves was heard outside, and two soldiers who were on guard outside the town rushed in and reported: "Boss, there is a pursuit of troops coming from outside the town. There are about a hundred people."
Fan Yi's expression changed slightly and he cursed: "Damn, these bastards came quite quickly, infantry or cavalry?"
The soldier replied: "There are a dozen cavalry, and the rest are infantry, but there are a few muskets."
Fan Yi said with a cruel smile: "Those who care about his grandma are here to kill them. Brothers, mount up and kill them!"
Those soldiers had rested for an hour, and Xu Jin had just asked Erniu to bring food, so they were now in high spirits. They all got on their horses and drew their sabers with murderous intent.
At this time, a group of people had appeared at the entrance of Ruihong Town, with red scarves wrapped on their foreheads. There were about a hundred people, approaching with swords and guns.
"Dad, your weapon!"
The boy Xie Sanqiang came out from nowhere carrying a machete. Judging from the effort he was making, this thing must be quite heavy.
Xie Qing reached out and took the machete, holding the handle of the knife and putting it on his shoulder. The horse's feet went weak on the spot and almost lost its hoof.
