Zhao Shen complained in his heart that it was against his grandfather, and this was a foreign enemy. Who knew whether his father could escape?
He blocked two enemy soldiers in a row, but couldn't dodge the sword behind him. He could only grit his teeth and try to carry it, but was kicked away by Yan Wenda, saving his life.
Zhao Shen didn't have time to relax, so he turned around and opened the door bolt, allowing his men to rush in.
Zhao Shen broke into the other courtyard. He could tell the location of the main hall with just one glance, so he led his men to kill in that direction.
The news of the return of the army reached the main hall faster than Zhao Shen. The already desperate officials were refreshed and like Zhao Ming, they pointed their weapons at the Xun army and fought to the death.
Even Zhao Ming perked up, raised the sword in his hand, and attacked Xun Xiu instead...
When Xun Xiu heard the news that the army was coming back for reinforcements, his expression changed drastically. How could there be an army coming to help? Could it be that someone had leaked the secret?
It can't be that Zhao Hanzhang is back, right?
But didn't he say that Zhao Hanzhang was injured in Youzhou and disappeared? Even if he was found, he would be more likely to be seriously injured and die. How could he turn around so quickly?
Xun Xiu's rebellion has always been carried out quietly. He consciously kept it secret and would not be found out in advance. Even the time was deliberately calculated.
He was confident that he would capture the emperor before dark so that they would have nowhere to escape, but... the army actually came back.
Xun Xiu stared at Zhao Ming and the little emperor with eyes like a hungry wolf. He must kill Zhao Ming and snatch the little emperor away, otherwise he would not survive.
That's what he thought, but the Xun army who followed him didn't think so. Especially the ordinary soldiers. As soon as they heard that the army was back, they felt that it was over, so they hesitated and moved slowly.
Zhao Ming noticed this, and while leading the little emperor back, he shouted loudly: "The army is returning to the city. You are at the end of your battle. Surrender now and surrender your weapons without killing!"
Xun Xiu shouted loudly: "Don't listen to his tricks. We have rebelled against Zhao Hanzhang. Mr. Zhao Hanzhang will definitely not let us go. We can escape by catching the little emperor before she gets here."
!”
He shouted again: "Whoever can catch the little emperor will be granted the title of Marquis of Thousand Households!"
As soon as these words came out, many people became energetic.
However, Zhao Ming said coldly: "Then you have to live for it. There are only a few people in the Xun family army here, how can they stop the Zhao family army?"
He also said: "The general is benevolent and always treats prisoners kindly, and will not kill them even if they surrender their weapons!"
Ping Yi and others also shouted loudly: "When has the general ever killed someone who surrendered his arms? If he surrenders his arms, he will not kill him, but if he surrenders his arms, he will not kill him!"
The officials in the room all shouted loudly. The ordinary soldiers of the Xun family army hesitated, but some people became more fierce and attacked fiercely with Xun Xiu. The ordinary soldiers might survive, but for these people, if they surrender, they will not die, and it will be difficult for them in the future.
If you want to make an inch of progress, why not take advantage of the slightest opportunity and fight for it? What if it happens?
There was no chance. Just when Xun Xiu broke through Ping Yi and Ping Zhong's protection and slashed at Zhao Ming with his sword, Zhao Shen came in and saw Xun Xiu's sword slashing directly towards his father's head, and behind Xun Xiu
Someone was guarding him, but he couldn't do it even if he wanted to kill him from behind and lure him back to defend. So he made a quick decision and leaped up, stepping on the person's shoulders and head and flying from the side. Finally, he kicked on a pillar.
Then he flew over like a cannonball, kicking his father Zhao Ming and the little emperor behind him away from the side. He raised his head and slid across the ground while wiping the blade...
The floating hair brushed against the blade and was immediately cut off. Zhao Shen's eyes widened slightly. What kind of sword is this? Is it so powerful?
Thoughts flashed across his mind, Zhao Shen straightened his back and spun around, holding a long sword to block the coming knife. His jaws shook and hurt. He could only take two steps back to relieve his strength.
Let your hands hurt.
His body was flexible, and he stabbed forward with the sword in his hand deftly. Xun Xiu slashed back with his sword, making a choking sound, and then his sword broke!
Zhao Shen's eyes widened in an instant. He took the remaining half of the sword in front of his eyes and looked at Xun Xiu, who looked fierce and red-eyed. He turned around and ran away, shouting: "Wenda, please save me!"
Zhao Ming, who was kicked away and escaped unharmed, had no time to touch his sore waist. When he saw the emperor lying on the ground, he quickly stood up to protect him behind him. Then when he looked up, he saw that his son's sword had been cut off.
Running this way, he immediately shouted: "Don't come over, lead him away quickly!"
After saying that, I remembered that the knife in Xun Xiu's hand was a special gift from Zhao Hanzhang. He also had a gun in his hand, which was also specially made. He probably felt that it was difficult to use a gun in the small space in the house, so he used the knife.
Thinking of the sharpness of weapons forged from fine steel, he immediately threw the sword in his hand towards Zhao Shen, "This is a sword forged by the Zhao family, here it is for you!"
Zhao Shen flew up and held it, then rolled after landing to avoid Xun Xiu's personal guard who was slashing at him. The sword slid along his weapon and cut off his palm.
Zhao Shen was slightly surprised. He didn't expect the sword to be so sharp. He quickly took two steps to the left, crossed the guard's neck as he passed by, and killed him. When he saw Xun Xiu leaving him behind and heading straight to his father, he immediately
He came from behind and said, "General Xun, why bother an old man? Your opponent is me!"
Zhao Ming, who pushed the emperor back step by step to avoid:...
Xun Xiu, who is about the same age as Zhao Ming:...
The swords collided, and Zhao Shen had a sharp weapon. No longer afraid of Xun Xiu, the two of them fought fiercely.
In terms of military ability, Zhao Shen has never fought him, so he doesn't know how deep it is, but in terms of single-body martial arts, Zhao Shen is still very confident. He is so young and in his prime, but Xun Xiu fought for a long time, and it took him a long time.
It can consume him to death.
Of course, Zhao Shen would not waste time. His sword was like an eye on the tip of the sword. He moved it quickly and accurately. In a short time, he made three bloody holes in Xun Xiu's body, but Zhao Shen was a little bit
It wasn't hurt either.
Xun Xiu was not unfamiliar with this kind of fighting feeling. He had been beaten like this when he and Zhao Hanzhang were sparring, but Zhao Hanzhang was using a gun at that time, and it only stopped when he clicked.
It was nothing at first, but at this time, the two sides were enemies, and the fact that Zhao Hanzhang suppressed him at every turn almost became a shadow in his mind.
Suddenly seeing someone who looked like Zhao Hanzhang fighting against him, Xun Xiu was greatly shocked. He made a mistake and was stabbed through the arm by Zhao Shen.
When Xun Ming saw it, he couldn't help but fight hard to separate Zhao Shen and him. After taking Zhao Shen's attack, he shouted loudly: "General, leave quickly, leave!"
Now that the army has arrived, if they don't leave, they really won't be able to leave.
Xun Xiu looked at the little emperor who was getting further and further away, gritted his teeth, covered his arms and withdrew under the protection of his personal guards.
When Zhao Shen saw this, he immediately said to Yan Wenda, who was rushing up to him: "Go and give the signal to tell them to withdraw, hide themselves, and don't collide with the rebels."
Yan Wenda:...Why do you call him everything?
But he turned around anyway. He was good at martial arts and quick on his feet, but he disappeared in front of people in just a moment.
