Liu Xiu had been fighting in the army for many years, and his martial arts also followed the line of broad opening and closing. He did not seek to kill the enemy with one blow, but only sought to kill as many enemies as possible with one blow and incapacitate as many enemies as possible.
The crowd headed by Liu Xiu rushed into the backyard of the inn, causing chaos among the bandits here. While Liu Xiu rushed forward, he turned back and shouted to Long Yuan: "Block the enemies outside the hospital!"
Long Yuan agreed, and with Long Zhun and Long Bu, he rushed towards the courtyard gate of the backyard and blocked the courtyard gate.
Let's talk about Liu Xiu, at this time, he was already close to killing Hongyan. The Red Sky Sword flew up and down, and the rebel army that rushed up would die if it stuck to it, and died if it touched it. For a moment, the rebel army fell under the Red Sky Sword.
, there are more than ten people.
Just as Liu Xiu was rushing towards the backyard room, a window suddenly shattered, and a figure shot out from the window. When he got outside, he fired several swords at the back of the bandits.
Poof, poof, poof! The three thieves behind him screamed and fell to the ground with swords in their hearts. The surrounding thieves were shocked, turned around, and attacked the man together. They had just surrounded the man, Liu Xiu
He has already killed them.
A flash of red light suddenly appeared in the air from the Chixiao Sword, and it penetrated into the waist of a thief soldier. Sha! The man's waist was cut open by the sword edge, and red and white things flowed out. Liu Xiu joined forces with this man,
Use two swords to attack the enemy on both sides.
The two men killed ten more enemies in one breath. The surrounding bandits were afraid of the two men's fighting power and were so frightened that they backed away and did not dare to step forward again.
The man who rushed out of the backyard room was Xuying. Taking advantage of the enemy's retreat, his voice trembled with excitement and said: "Your Majesty... Young Master!"
"How is Madam?" Liu Xiu asked while scanning the enemies around him.
"Madam is fine." Xu Ying's four simple words made Liu Xiu completely relieved. He refreshed himself, took a few deep breaths, and then, holding the Red Sky Sword, he rushed towards the nearby crowd of rebels again.
When the man arrived, so did the sword. One of the bandits subconsciously thrust out a spear, but before the spearhead even touched the edge of Liu Xiu's clothes, it was cut off by a ray of red light. Immediately afterwards, Liu Xiu's sword penetrated the opponent's chest.
The rebels fell on their backs. Liu Xiu drew his sword and swung it outwards. The half-moon-shaped red light suddenly appeared and cut off the necks of the two rebels, and the two heads flew up.
Looking at Liu Xiu like a demon with red eyes, the surrounding bandits were so frightened that they turned around and ran away. However, they were soon knocked to the ground by the swarming county soldiers.
After cleaning up the enemies around him, Liu Xiu strode into the room holding the bloody Chixiao Sword.
"Young Master!" Xu Ting and Xu Fei both stepped forward, holding their swords upside down and saluting him with scarlet eyes.
It can be seen that Xu Ying, Xu Ting, and Xu Fei have all experienced a fierce battle. Especially Xu Ting and Xu Fei, they are like bloody gourds at this time. The clothes on their bodies are almost stained red with blood, and their bodies are large and small.
There were more than ten breaks in it, and I don’t know if the skin and flesh inside were damaged.
Looking up at the ground, the room was littered with corpses, including the corpses of rebels and our own personnel.
Looking behind Xu Fei and Xu Ting, Yin Lihua, Xu Xiling, and Hua Feiyan were all there. At this time, even they had swords in their hands, and the swords were stained with blood.
Liu Xiu patted the shoulders of Xu Ting and Xu Fei, then quickly passed them and came to Yin Lihua. He looked her up and down with concern and asked, "Is Lihua okay?!"
Although Yin Lihua's clothes were messy, they were not damaged, but her face was pale. She did not cry with joy like ordinary women when she suddenly saw her husband coming to rescue her in a critical moment.
She shook her head at Liu Xiu, pretending to be calm and said: "Axiu, I'm fine!" When she spoke, she might not even notice that her hand holding the sword was shaking.
Yin Lihua pretended to be calm and strong, which made her even more lovable. Liu Xiu took a step forward and hugged Yin Lihua tightly in her arms.
When he heard that the city had been captured by the bandits, only he knew how nervous and scared he was at that time, afraid of losing her forever.
At this time, he hugged Yin Lihua very tightly, so tightly that he seemed to want to integrate her into his body.
Although it was uncomfortable to be hugged by Liu Xiu like this and she could hardly breathe, Yin Lihua did not struggle. She buried her little face in his chest and cried silently.
Liu Xiu held Yin Lihua for a while, then he slowly let go, but still half-hug her. He looked up at Xu Xiling and Hua Feiyan, and asked: "Xiling, Feiyan, how are you two?
?”
Xu Xiling's eyes were red, and she shook her head slowly and charmingly, saying that she was fine. Hua Feiyan was not so pretentious, and said with cupped hands: "Young Master, I'm fine!"
Liu Xiu nodded. He walked to the bed and pulled off the gauze. He first tore off two pieces and handed them to Xu Xiling and Hua Feiyan. Then he tore off another piece and tied it on Yin Lihua's head to cover her face.
live.
Then he held Yin Lihua's hand and said to Xu Xiling and Hua Feiyan: "Let's break out!" As he spoke, he turned to Xu Ting and Xu Fei nodded, pulled Yin Lihua and walked out quickly.
Now, most of the bandits in the backyard have been killed. Looking around, there is a thick layer of corpses on the ground. The blood flowing out is about to gather into a river. The strong smell of blood in the air is nauseating.
After coming out, Liu Xiu came to the courtyard and said loudly to Fu An, Long Yuan, Xu Ying and others who were blocking the backyard door: "Let's break out!"
Before he could break out, more than a hundred county soldiers rushed forward and knelt down in front of Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu was puzzled and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Young master is very skilled in martial arts. Please take us to the county government and rescue the trapped magistrate and brothers!" The captain of the county soldiers took the lead and said, and other county soldiers also followed suit.
Looking at the people kneeling down, Liu Xiu was filled with emotion. If he had the strength to rescue the county government now, he would naturally do his best to rescue them without having to beg him from these county soldiers.
But now he really doesn't have that kind of strength. If they just go to rescue the county government, aren't they going to hit the stone with an egg? Liu Xiu walked up to the county soldier captain, pulled him up, and then waved to the other county soldiers.
, said: "Everyone, please get up quickly!" After a moment, he said: "There are so many thieves and there are only a few of us, how can we save the county government?"
The county soldiers who had just stood up knelt down on the ground again when they heard what he said.
The county soldier captain said with a sad face: "We are all locals of the county, and our home is here. When we live, we should live with the city, and when we die, we should also die with the city!"
Many of the county soldiers couldn't help but choked up and kowtowed to Liu Xiu, hoping that he would stay and lead them to rescue the county and the city.
Not to mention Liu Xiu, passionate men like Fu An were moved by this scene, and even weak women like Yin Lihua were deeply moved.
She took Liu Xiu's hand and said meaningfully: "My husband came to save me because he was fulfilling his duty as a husband. Now that he is saving the city, how can he not be fulfilling his duty?"
It is the duty of the emperor!
The city belongs to Jizhou, and Liu Xiu proclaimed himself the emperor in Jizhou. Now the city has been destroyed by the bandit army. The life and death of the people in the city are tied to one line. As the emperor, if Liu Xiu abandons the people of the county and escapes alone,
Even if no one knew about it, he still couldn't get over his conscience.
Liu Xiu refused to rescue the county government. Firstly, he did not have the strength to rescue now. Secondly, he was concerned about Yin Lihua's comfort. Liu Xiu was not a person who was afraid of death. He had died countless times in his life.
To escape, he was afraid that something would happen to Yin Lihua.
At this time, Yin Lihua's words made his mind turbulent. He held Yin Lihua's hand and asked seriously: "Lihua, aren't you afraid?"
Yin Lihua answered simply: "As long as she is with her husband, Lihua is not afraid of anything! As long as her husband does the right thing, Lihua will always be by her husband's side and accompany him!"
Liu Xiu's eyes turned red and she held Yin Lihua's little hand tighter. Madam is like this, what else can I ask for?! Liu Xiu looked around at the people present and asked loudly: "Aren't you afraid of waiting?"
Fu An stepped in to salute and said loudly: "I will follow you to the death!"
Long Yuan, Xuying and others also said in unison: "I will follow you to the death!"
Liu Xiu nodded heavily and said without hesitation: "Let's go to the county government!"
When all the county soldiers heard the words, they all showed joy and tears filled their eyes with excitement. People all kowtowed forward and said in unison: "Young Master is a righteous man. We will follow him to the death and follow him as a horse!"
Gold always shines, and a capable person will show his unique charm no matter when and where he goes. Is it a coincidence or luck that Liu Xiu was able to start from scratch and become emperor in Hebei?
At this time, even if he concealed his identity and disguised himself as a businessman, he could still attract the people around him tightly and make them willingly follow him through life and death. This is Liu Xiu's personality charm.
The thief army here in the inn was temporarily defeated by them. Liu Xiu called everyone over. He stood in the center of the crowd and drew on the ground with the tip of his sword. At the same time, he said: "Currently, the main force of the thief army is besieging the county government. There are some troops."
There are thousands or even tens of thousands of people. It is not the best strategy for us to fight with the bandit army. This is to attack the stone with an egg. Our only hope of victory is to find the bandit leader from among the bandit army and kill him by surprise.
It’s best to capture him!”
Everyone nodded while listening, indicating that what Liu Xiu said was reasonable. Liu Xiu continued: "Since the county is the main battlefield, the enemy general must be here. We just have to find out among so many enemy troops.
He is a general, and he has to approach him without anyone noticing, so capturing him will not be easy."
Fu An then said: "Sir, we can first disguise ourselves as bandit troops and approach the county government, and then we can inquire among the bandit troops around the county house to find the specific location of the bandit army general!" wavv
Liu Xiu thought for a while and said, "That's it!"
After making up their mind, everyone started to take off their clothes. Liu Xiu took Yin Lihua, Xu Xiling, and Hua Feiyan into the room, and then took off three sets of relatively clean clothes from the corpses of the rebels, and asked them all to put on them.
.
Wearing dead people's clothes is disgusting, but in extraordinary times, you can't control it so much.
After they all finished changing, Liu Xiu re-entered the room, looked at the three women's clothes, put his hands on the ground, grabbed two large handfuls of blood, and smeared it on the three women's faces.
Yin Lihua and the three of them almost vomited on the spot. Liu Xiu took off the hair accessories on their heads, took apart their buns, re-braided them into men's buns, and deliberately messed them up a little. At the same time, he said: "Be patient.
The more disgusting you are now, the safer your situation will be when you encounter the bandits!" After saying this, he dipped his fingers into the blood on the ground and wiped the three women's eyebrows blood red.
When fighting with the rebel army, Liu Xiuyou noticed that many rebel soldiers imitated the red eyebrows and painted their eyebrows crimson. Thinking about it, many rebel soldiers and generals in the Fifth School Army and Tanxiang Army also painted their eyebrows red.
The Red Eyebrow Army became the object of his worship.
Liu Xiu noticed this small detail of the rebel army, and so did Fu An, Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Bo and others.
When he walked out of the room with Yin Lihua, Xu Xiling, and Hua Feiyan, he looked up and saw that everyone in the yard had not only changed into bandit clothes, but also had red eyebrows.
