Chapter 548
Four to five hundred dignitaries asked soldiers to protect Shang Dingtian and fled towards Quanye City. Han Sheng led more than a thousand Han soldiers in hot pursuit. Shang Dingtian kept giving orders to leave a group of people to block the rear.
The Han army, which was biting hard, used this method of self-depletion to delay the Han army's pursuit.
Dozens of people died. Although they slowed down the Han army, Liuqiu people could not hold on for long. Shang Dingtian looked back while running, and there were less than a hundred soldiers following him at this time.
If we continue like this, we are afraid that we will be overtaken by the Han army in less than half an hour. At this time, we are still at least two hours away from Quanye City, and it seems that it is already difficult to run back to Quanye City.
something that can be accomplished.
"Team D, stay behind to defend against the enemy!"
Shang Dingtian shouted loudly while running.
The twenty soldiers of the Imperial Guard Team immediately stopped without any hesitation. They knew that if they stopped they would face death, but as the two hundred loyal Imperial Guards of His Majesty the Emperor of Zhongshan Kingdom,
They have no choice and will not make other choices. Your Majesty gives them the best treatment, Corporal Li Xian, and they are always ready to die for Your Majesty. If they can save Your Majesty by sacrificing themselves, the two hundred guards will
Everyone will give their life without hesitation.
Different from the army structure of the Han Dynasty, the imperial guards of Zhongshan were divided into teams of twenty. The army structure of the Han Dynasty was composed of fifty people per team, with one captain and two deputy deputies. The official positions and powers of the captain after the Sui and Tang Dynasties
During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, a team of 50 people was assigned a team leader, a brigade of 100 personnel was assigned a brigade leader, and a regiment of 300 personnel was assigned a captain. During the Five Dynasties, the leader
A team of fifty is exactly one captain.
The Zhongshan Imperial Guards stopped suddenly, held the sword in their hands across their chests, and gave the last military salute to His Majesty the Emperor who was walking away.
"Team D! I swear to protect His Majesty to the death!"
Just as Team D was shouting, twenty guards stood in a row, holding the swords in their hands across their chests and shouted in unison: "Protect Your Majesty to the death!"
Twenty people, all with blood, even if they are not as powerful as a rainbow, they still have a respectable solemnity and solemnity. This is a choice that they know will lead to death. Some of them may regret joining the ranks of the guards.
, but at this time, no one chose to escape. Unlike the ordinary soldiers of Zhongshan Kingdom, the imperial guards were the dead soldiers of His Majesty the Emperor.
Team Ding took a deep breath and then puffed up his chest. The Han soldiers were less than a hundred meters behind and could rush in front of them in an instant. With twenty people blocking the frontal attack of more than a thousand Han soldiers, even if
Even the reincarnation of Sun Wu and the resurrection of Kong Ming do not have this ability. They are not Sun Wu and Kong Ming. They do not have the talent to rule the world, but they have a pure and passionate heart.
Seeing that the advancing troops of the Han army were about to hit the thin defensive formation composed of twenty people, the pursuing Han soldiers suddenly bypassed the twenty guards! Immediately afterwards, the Han army
In separate queues, a dozen people who were different from ordinary Han soldiers rushed out from the Han army like poisonous snakes.
A dozen tough men wearing black lotus-style robes quickly approached the defense line composed of twenty guards. In a trance, Team D's team member just opened his mouth and wanted to order the team to disperse to stop the Han soldiers.
During the army, the men in black robes raised the exquisitely modified Wuhou repeating crossbow from the Han Dynasty Hundreds Workshop in a uniform movement more than 20 meters away from the guards.
Each repeating crossbow can fire fifteen crossbow arrows, and the arrow clusters are stained with poison developed by the five offices of the Overwatch Council.
The sound of swishing was endless, and more than a dozen repeating crossbows began to fire almost at the same time!
Team D's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Down!"
The instructions he gave were not the most correct. Falling down in front of the enemy actually meant death. Moreover, their movements were not faster than the extremely sharp Han Crossbow. In an instant, the guards had not had time to fall to the ground.
At that moment, dozens of crossbow arrows roared towards us!
There were continuous popping sounds, and more than half of the twenty guards were shot down in just an instant. The short but terrifyingly powerful crossbow arrows could easily penetrate two layers of armor at this distance, not to mention the bodies of these guards.
He only wore a single layer of light armor. The sound of the crossbow arrows entering his flesh was like the sound of grinding teeth in the middle of the night. In this unpleasant sound, the guard's body was pierced by the crossbow arrows.
A guard looked up to the sky and howled. His chest was hit by four crossbow arrows, and one arrow almost hit his heart. After roaring wildly, he fiercely pulled out the crossbow arrows that were deeply embedded in his chest. Exquisitely
The crossbow arrows also have a mechanism on the arrow shaft. After impact, the barbs on the arrow shaft will pop out and get stuck in the flesh. The guard yanked hard and brought out a large bloody muscle. The open wound was rotten
Blood was pouring out, and you could even faintly see your heart beating.
He threw away the crossbow arrows, brandished his sword and charged towards those devilishly calm men in black robes.
With a swipe, one of the supervisory guards raised his sword to block the guard's sword, and the other supervisory guard's horizontal knife had already scratched the guard's neck. The cooperation between the two supervisory guards was very good.
Skilled in this kind of small-scale hand-to-hand combat, the Supervisory Guards are far more powerful than Han soldiers. The people of the Supervisory Council cannot adapt to the kind of battle where tens of thousands of people fight on the battlefield, but they are extremely adaptable to this kind of small-scale fighting.
At this moment, the dozen or so black-robed supervisory guards were like dancers spinning in the sun. Their black lotus robes were shaking with their movements, but their murderous hands were as steady as those buried deep in the mountain.
Shitou. Zhongshan Imperial Guard Captain Ding's left eye was shot through by a crossbow arrow. The twenty-centimeter-long crossbow arrow was inserted into his eye socket and was still shaking. Captain Ding screamed in agony,
Then he violently pulled out the crossbow arrow from his eye socket. On the barb of the crossbow arrow was an eyeball that was already half rotten.
Their bodies were shaking violently, but the team was holding on and not falling down.
Two cooperating surveillance guards came towards him, one from the left and the other from the right. Team Ding's face was covered with blood, and he swung his knife to meet him like a wounded mountain beast. The Park in his hand
Although the knife is not made of hundreds of refined steel, it is far tougher and sharper than the weapons of ordinary soldiers of the Zhongshan Kingdom. The heavy Pu Dao blocked a sweeping horizontal knife, and then pushed forward fiercely. The Pu Dao
The blade of the knife was pushed against the supervisor's chest. The knife in the supervisor's right hand had been swung away, and he was exposed!
However, the supervisory guard did not pay attention to the horizontal knife that was coming at him. Instead, he used the fastest speed to stab the leader of Team Na Ding in the throat with the horizontal knife. The tip of the horizontal knife was sharper than a long sword.
It is strong enough to pierce thick leather armor easily. The 200 guards of the Zhongshan Kingdom are the only army equipped with standard leather armor. It can be said that they are the 200 best-equipped soldiers in the entire Zhongshan Kingdom army.
.
The Overwatch Guard doesn't dodge or dodge, it's a life-for-life style of play.
He did not dodge, not because he was not afraid of death, but because he firmly believed that his companions could block the knife for him.
His companion did not disappoint him. Another surveillance guard slashed away the leader of Team D's sword with a diagonal slash as quickly as possible.
Poof!
The horizontal knife pierced the throat of Qu Zheng and then stabbed out from the back of the neck. The bloody knife tip exuded this strange and cruel luster.
The blade of more than 70 centimeters penetrated completely!
The twenty guards were like small stones swallowed up by the flood, disappearing without making much waves.
Just like this, half an hour later, only eight people from Team A were left among the guards around Shang Dingtian. The other twelve soldiers from Team A had already died in the battle when they broke through.
"kill!"
Han Sheng pointed his sword forward, and the Han soldiers who saw the hope of victory bravely moved forward.
"Your Majesty, leave quickly! The general will lead people to stop the enemy!"
Team A shouted loudly and turned back to fight. The three guards gritted their teeth and followed Team A to kill again. The four of them actually wanted to use their own flesh and blood to give Shang Dingtian a chance to escape for a while.
.It's just that... facing the attack of seven to eight hundred elite Han troops, no matter how good the four of them are at fighting, they can't stop the torrent.
Looking back at the leader of Team A who was slowly falling, Shang Dingtian's heart trembled suddenly, as if a dagger had been stabbed into his heart.
In less than ten minutes, the people from the Overwatch Council were the first to catch up with Shang Dingtian and the five others.
No matter how fast the cheetah runs, it will be difficult to move forward if its tail is pulled. The guards of Team A are the most powerful among Shang Dingtian's two hundred guards, and they are Shang Dingtian's personal bodyguards. But it is difficult to use both fists.
Against four enemies, even if the cheetah is powerful, it will still be lifeless if surrounded by hundreds of hungry wolves.
Shang Dingtian's face turned pale. Seeing that the Han soldiers had surrounded him, he had no way to escape. Soon, he and the four guards of Team A were surrounded by the Han army. The four guards of Team A, General Shang
Dingtianhu formed a miniature plum blossom array in it, and Shang Dingtian was the stamen of the plum blossom.
No one said anything, and the Han soldiers pounced directly on them. They were all warriors with a focus on killing, and they would never show any mercy to their enemies on the battlefield.
They only lasted less than ten minutes, and Shang Dingtian's four remaining guards were all injured!
Soon, two imperial guards were hacked to death, and Shang Dingtian's plum blossom formation collapsed.
At this critical moment, a team suddenly emerged from the dense forest on the flank and blocked the Han army. The number of soldiers in this team was not large, and it looked like there were no less than a thousand people!
Han Sheng slashed at a soldier who came forward suddenly, but the sharp horizontal knife did not cut through the soldier's special armor!
It was like cutting on a piece of flexible cotton. No matter how sharp the horizontal knife was, it could not break the shoulder of the Zhongshan soldier! It was like cutting on a thick layer of water-stained cotton. The horizontal knife was blocked by
Outside the soldier's body!
"Tengjia Army!"
Han Sheng's eyes suddenly widened! (To be continued)
