Arrows were looming in the rain and fog, and arrows were being fired from both sides. The cavalry relied on their horse speed to shoot farther than the archers on Su Ren's side. The people who oppressed Su Ren could only lie down behind the grain cart to avoid it. Su Ren was killed by Huang
Thirteen and Manniu held on tight, almost crawling to the ground. The ground began to tremble, and one hundred and fifty horses came closer with neat steps. The sound of horse hoofbeats changed from slow to fast, and Su Ren's heart also followed.
Rapid beating.
Although the cavalry did not use rockets, Su Ren had already suffered heavy losses. Not only a dozen soldiers were shot and killed, but the grain bags on the cart were also shot into a hornet's nest, and grain leaked out from the cart. Zhang Junyue jumped out of the cart.
He crawled under and picked up the food that fell on the ground with his hands. As soon as he grabbed two handfuls, an arrow pierced his arm.
"Ah...!" The screams and cries made the entire convoy panic. Lei was held up with a shield and came to Su Ren's side: "Sir, I will lead people to hold back these cavalry. You'd better leave quickly. It won't be too late."
It’s really too late.”
Su Ren did not move, huddled behind the cart, looking at the cavalry outside through the gap. Those cavalry were very cunning. After running a hundred steps, they immediately divided into two teams, one on the left and one on the right, circling the grain cart, while circling.
While shooting arrows in, the people hiding inside were helpless.
Hawking used his halberd to separate a few arrows: "Run! I'm afraid I can't run now. In this situation, let alone mounting my horse, I might be shot to death even if I show my head."
"I have gathered all the shields. If you take thirty of your guards to protect sir with shields, you should be able to rush out!" After talking to Hawking, Lei Guo said to Su Ren again: "Sir, this is the only one.
I will be killed by them sooner or later! My life was saved by my husband. As long as my husband returns safely, I can rest in peace even if I die."
A shower of arrows caused ghosts and wolves to howl in the temporary camp. After losing more than a dozen people, the opponent killed all Su Ren's archers. This turned into a show, and the cavalry stopped running and formed a large
The temporary camp was surrounded by a circle, and if anyone accidentally exposed his legs or feet, a dozen arrows would immediately come flying towards him.
Regardless of whether the grain truck would be burned down, Lei used all his shields to form a ball and protected everyone in it. From a distance, it looked like a turtle. The rain of arrows finally stopped, and through the gaps in the shields,
Su Ren saw a horse coming out of the cavalry team. The knight on the horse dismounted and walked towards the cart with a scimitar. He bent down and grabbed a handful of grain, putting it in his hands and rubbing it constantly.
The man reached out and pulled down the black cloth covering his face, revealing a familiar face: "Long time no see, Mr. Su!"
"It's Liu Hong!" Liu Jian was the first to recognize the man.
Huo Jin said: "It turns out that this kid came to the Huns. No wonder he has not been caught. Brother, I will rush out and kill him now!"
Su Ren quickly grabbed Huo Jin and said loudly to the outside: "It turns out to be Master Liu. It's been a long time since we last met."
Liu Hong threw away the grain in his hand, climbed onto the grain truck and looked at the tortoise shell in front of him: "Mr. Su, there is no need to resist pointlessly. As long as I charge, your tortoise shell can't protect you. It's better to come out and talk."
Right? I guarantee your safety."
"What to talk about?"
Liu Hong chuckled: "Of course we are talking about cooperation. As long as Mr. Su agrees to a few conditions, I will not only let you all go, but also give you all the food."
"What conditions?"
"Can you speak out? Doesn't Mr. Su even have the courage to do so?"
"No! I'm a timid person, so I'm still scared to hide here.
Liu Hong smiled bitterly and said: "You were not like this before. Did you become less and less bold as you became more and more bold in what you did?"
"This has nothing to do with courage, only hatred."
"Oh? It turns out Mr. Su hasn't forgotten! Then you haven't thought about resolving the hatred between us?"
"No! Besides, the hatred between you and me cannot be resolved with just a few words."
Liu Hong nodded: "That's true! But I won't talk about hatred today, only cooperation. To tell you the truth, I am not here to ambush these grains. I just want to ask Mr. Su to come with me. Someone wants to see you."
"
"Who? Tell me your name first."
"How about Yin Zhixie, King Zuoguli of the Xiongnu? Is he much stronger than your friend Yudan? King Zuoguli also wants to do business with Mr. Su, and his business is bigger and the price is more suitable than Yudan.
In exchange for a single horse to feed Mr. Su for two and a half months, King Zuo Guli only needs two months. What does Mr. Su think?"
"That's not bad! You go back and tell Yin Zhixie that I agree. As long as he sends the horses to Mayi, he can get as much food as he wants."
"Hahaha..." Liu Hong laughed: "Mr. Su, do you think I'm easy to deceive? I can also say such nonsense."
"How about writing a contract?"
Liu Hong smiled again and said: "The contract is just a piece of waste paper. Mr. Su will have nothing to do if he doesn't recognize it, don't you think so?"
"Then what do you want?"
"Simple! Please ask Mr. Su to go to the royal court. As long as the required food is delivered, Mr. Su can follow the cavalry back to Mayi."
Su Ren didn't speak. Liu Hong waited for a while and smiled coldly: "At this time, Mr. Su should have no other choice, right? Follow me to the royal court, or else I will break your turtle shell and catch you."
If you go to the Royal Court, the results of both methods will be the same. However, Mr. Su must remember that my patience has its limits. If Mr. Su has not stepped out of the turtle shell after burning the incense, then don't blame me for being rude.
"
"Let me think about it!"
"Don't worry, I'll light the incense now, you can think about it slowly."
Seeing Su Ren's solemn face, Huo Jin quickly took Su Ren's arm: "Brother, don't listen to that guy, how can he let you go if you go out? The Huainan Wang family were all killed by us, Liu Hong is
The son of King Huainan!"
Ying Guangji glanced at Su Ren: "I think what that guy said is not a lie, you can try it!"
Hawking was anxious: "If you want to try, you try, but my brother will never try!"
Su Ren took a deep breath and pondered for a long time. He saw an incense burner beside Liu Hong, with an incense stick inserted in it. The incense was burning, and the green smoke was swaying from side to side but not rising up. Which incense burned very well
Quickly, half of it was burned in a short while. Huo Jin and Ying Guangji were fighting fiercely in the shield formation. If the space was not too small to use, the two would have fought long ago.
Lei Ban glanced at Su Ren: "Do you want me to go out and talk to him first? I must..."
"I'll go too!" Liu Jian said quickly.
Su Ren shook his head: "It's useless. What he wants is me. No one can go. It might have a bad effect."
Lei was nodded: "Sir, be careful!"
Su Ren shouted: "I'm out!" He straightened up and straightened his clothes. Hawking immediately stood up and pulled Su Ren's arm. Su Ren glanced at Hawking, smiled slightly, and gently touched Hawking's hand.
I patted my hand twice.
A gap was opened in the shield formation, and Su Ren leaked out. Liu Hong looked happy, put away his scimitar, and raised his hand towards Su Ren: "I said Mr. Su will definitely come out, and there is still half of the fragrance. If you want to
Don’t go back and think about it?”
Su Ren shook his head: "No, I hope you will keep your word."
Liu Hongdao: "That's natural. Mr. Su may not know it. I am now under the command of King Zuogu Li. Naturally, I have to listen to King Zuo Guli. Although I really want to kill you now, I understand that the father is the father and the father is the king."
For personal reasons, please do it!"
Su Ren took a deep breath, calmed down, and walked out of the shield formation. Huang Shisan and Man Niu immediately followed behind him, but Liu Hong didn't say much. In front of Liu Hong, Huang Shisan and Man Niu
Niu threw the weapon on the ground and followed Su Ren on the left and right.
Liu Hong said with emotion: "Mr. Su, you really have a good command of your subordinates. Even now, there are still people who are willing to follow you."
Huang Shisan snorted coldly: "Huh! Sir, he is much stronger than those guys who killed his father. Even if I die if I follow you, I, Huang Shisan, will not even frown."
Su Ren raised his hand to interrupt Huang Shisan. This was not the time to irritate Liu Hong. He raised his hand towards Liu Hong and said, "I just said that I was well-mannered, but in the blink of an eye, Mr. Liu was laughing."
Liu Hong glared at Huang Shisan fiercely: "Wars of words are meaningless. Everything you do depends on means. I learned this from Mr. Su."
Someone came over and tied up Huang Shisan and Man Niu. As for Su Ren, no one made a move against him. Everyone knew that Su Ren was ordinary except for his better brains. Even if he was given a knife, he might not be able to hurt anyone.
There was no prison car prepared, so Su Ren led the horse out by himself, climbed on its back, and was immediately taken into the cavalry team.
This time Liu Hong really kept his word and led Su Ren towards the northwest direction without looking back. Until Liu Hong's men got into the rain and fog, Lei Gui was still uneasy and opened the shield array. Huo Jin squeezed out of the shield array in a hurry.
Come out and charge towards your horse.
"If you have the guts, follow me. If you don't rescue me, you will never go back!"
The thirty guards who followed Su Ren responded immediately. Only Shi Bao stood aside with a frown. Huo Jin was furious, pointed at Shi Bao and said, "I know you are a courageous guy. If you don't want to go, I will!"
Lei was grabbed by the horse's reins: "No, Mr. Huo! Not only will you not be able to save Mr. Huo, you will also..."
Hawking whipped Lei Qiu in the face: "Let go!"
Lei was beaten but did not let go, staring at Hawking. Hawking choked and pulled out his sword, holding it against Lei's throat: "Let go, if you don't let go I won't be polite!"
Lei Fei still didn't let go, and Huo Jin was also merciless. He stabbed out with the sword with a flick of his wrist. Lei Fei twisted his body, grabbed Hawking's belt with his backhand, and pulled Huo Jin off the horse with all his strength. Ying Guangji suddenly took action and struck hard.
He slapped Hawking on the back of the head. Looking at Hawking who fell limply, he shook his head and said, "Ignorant child!"
Lei Fei sighed and said to Shi Bao: "Carry it down! Watch carefully and don't let him do anything wrong!"
Shi Bao nodded seriously.
The camp was in a mess, the wounded needed to be cared for, the damaged grain truck had to be repaired, and Yuci and Mayi had to send people back immediately. After finally packing it up, at night Lei was found that several more people were missing. (Unfinished)
