"Jin, I'm sorry!"
"You bastard, you ran away without saying a word and left me here alone. I'm so scared, so scared! Wu Jin rushed into Chang Fan's arms, crying and making a scene.
" I'm sorry, I'm sorry…" Chang Fan hugged Wu Jin even tighter.
After everyone calmed down.
"We have to leave immediately. The pursuers are less than a hundred miles away from us.”Chang Fan said.
"Yes, Xiang Tao also reminded us. Everyone is ready.”Liao Sikai said.
"If we go past Han City, we will reach the desert. As long as we cross the desert, we will reach Dawan.”Chang Fan said.
"If I can safely arrive at Dawan with Wu Jin and these brothers, live in seclusion and live an ordinary life, it will be considered a blessing from the heavens.”These few days of life and death had left Chang Fan with many emotions. He couldn't help but pray in his heart.
When he arrived in Han City, he had to surprise everyone. In this era of war, this place was actually so prosperous. People came and went on the streets, and there was an endless stream of people selling all kinds of goods. The county magistrate here was not simple. This was Chang Fan's first thought.
"Han City County Magistrate Cheng Pu greets Your Highness.”
"County Magistrate Cheng, prepare camels, water, and rations immediately.”Chang Fan looked at the skinny man and said.
"Yes, General. I will do it immediately.”
At night, Chang Fan specially came to the busy Cheng Pu's side." If someone like you were in the court, I'm sure Great Wu would not be in such a bad state.”Chang Fan said.
"It's a pity that there are many horses, but not many Bole.”Cheng Pu felt that his talent was not recognized.
"Sir, what do you think of our future?”
"The people are tired and the horses are tired. The pursuers are coming.”
"Then how should we escape?"
"The pursuers are determined to win and will not rest until they die. The only way is to create a diversion and then go around the desert to Persia.”
"Can Wu Jin still take another thousand miles around the desert? Can I completely trust this person?" Chang Fan shook his head and gave up on the idea of taking a detour.
"If the thief comes here, how will you prepare to deal with him?”This was the question Chang Fan asked every time he passed by a city. Almost everyone shouted their loyalty to the city. Unfortunately, when the soldiers arrived at the city, they immediately opened the city gates and surrendered. Some of them even wanted to capture Wu Jin and offer their merits. Fortunately, they had the lesson of the Second Prince and were all seen through by Chang Fan.
"I will surrender."
Chang Fan pulled out his saber and placed it on Cheng Pu's neck. Cheng Pu smiled at him fearlessly.
"Sir is not a person who is afraid of death. Why do you want to surrender?”
Cheng Pu looked at Chang Fan meaningfully." Are those who surrender afraid of death?”
Chang Fan was speechless.
"General, are you willing to follow me to the streets?”
On the street.
"The chaos of war has caused the entire continent's people to live in poverty, but Sir has such a scene here. I have to admire you!”Chang Fan said emotionally.
"The chaos of war has caused the people to live in poverty, but it is not only the chaos of war that has caused the people to live in poverty. General, please listen to the hearts of those who have fled from other places.”Cheng Pu looked at Chang Fan meaningfully.
Beside the restaurant, a group of beggars were chatting.
Beggar A: " Look at Han City. Every family has food and shelter. They don't even have a beggar. Liaocheng is far worse than them.”
Beggar B: " Don't talk about Liaocheng. There are only a few good places like this in the entire Wu Kingdom. There are corrupt officials and bullies everywhere. Bandits and thieves run amok!”
"In the third year of Taikang, my family was still a famous rich family in the local area, but they kept taxing us. "In the end, my family was so poor that I couldn't even eat. Later on, there was a war. My three sons were captured and sent to the army. Now, I don't even know if they are dead or alive. The old lady was also beaten to death by the debt collectors. I was the only one who ran out to beg. It's good that the Wu Kingdom was destroyed! Good job!" An old beggar said angrily.
……
"There must be a reason why a superpower was destroyed in just six years. Now, heroes were rising up, and the people in power in the court were all Wei Zhongxian's disciples. Even Sun Bin, the God of War, was killed. How could the Wu Kingdom not be destroyed? I, Cheng Pu, may be stupid, but I know that between a rotten imperial court and millions of people, I should choose the latter.”Cheng Pu said.
"Then why did you help us?”
"Sigh! After all, I'm a Wu official. This can be considered the last thing I do as an official.”
"Sigh!" Another heavy sigh. Chang Fan was born in poverty and hated corrupt officials the most. However, he didn't expect himself to be standing on the opposite side of the common people. He suddenly felt lost and didn't know what he should and shouldn't do. He thought for a long time, but no one knew what he was thinking about.
"Forget it, the Wu Kingdom is already dead anyway. Protect Jin well and live in seclusion from now on.”Chang Fan consoled himself.
It had been seven days since Chang Fan and his group entered the final stage of their escape-the thousand mile desert. It was already August, noon, and the sun was blazing.
"Xiao Fan, I can't take it anymore. Let's go back!”Carriages couldn't travel in the desert, so Wu Jin could only ride on a camel.
"Be good. Bear with it a little longer. Everything will be fine after we cross the desert.”As there were too few camels, other than Wu Jin's, the other camels were all carrying food and water. Chang Fan held Wu Jin's camel and comforted him.
"Report! About 30,000 pursuers were less than ten miles away!”The police officer ran over and shouted.
"What?! So fast!" Chang Fan was shocked.
"All troops, prepare for battle!" The entire army was immediately enveloped in a tense atmosphere of war.
" Generals and warriors, I represent Princess Wu Jin to express my utmost respect to all of you. At this moment of life and death, I hope that all of you will be loyal to the Kingdom of Wu, and…" The eunuch beside Wu Jin, who was also the supervisor of the army, was trembling as he mobilized everyone before the battle.
"Go to hell, you dog eunuch. What time is it now, and you're still a party writer? If Leader Mao was still alive, he would have criticized you long ago.”The furious Chang Fan kicked away the eunuch who was still giving a speech.
"Ma Xueliang, bring fifty men to protect the princess and run west without stopping.”
"Yes, General!" A small leader ran towards Wu Jin on behalf of the fifty men.
" Wait! General Ma…I'll leave the princess to you. Take good care of her for me.”Chang Fan stopped Ma Xueliang and looked at Wu Jin affectionately. He had already made up his mind to die.
"I will not disappoint you." Ma Xueliang said firmly with tears in his eyes.
" Xiao Fan, don't leave me. We'll surrender. Xiao Fan, Xiao Fan..." Wu Jin cried.
"Do you know the consequences of falling into their hands? It was an insult that was more tragic than death! Hurry ~ Go ~!" Chang Fan turned around decisively.
"Brothers! Who are we? We are the Flying Tiger Army under Lord Xiang's command! It was Great Wu's Imperial Guards! He was the elite of the elites! He was a warrior among warriors! In the eyes of the enemy, we are the most stubborn army and must be eliminated!
Those bastards have been chasing us for more than a month. They won't let us live, and we won't let them live well either. They're about to come and die. Don't disgrace the name of the Flying Tigers Army later!
I, Chang Fan, have been able to be brothers with all of you for the rest of my life! If they were alive, when others mentioned this battle in the future, they would pat their chests and proudly say,'I was the Flying Tigers Army back then.' If I die in battle, I'll be a good man again eighteen years later!
We are the Flying Tigers! We will definitely win!" Chang Fan shouted excitedly.
"The Flying Tigers will win! Victory! Victory!" His voice shook the world!
The earth shook, and dust rolled. They were getting closer, closer.
"Set up the formation!"
Chang Fan gave the order. The Shield Warriors formed three rows in front, followed by the Heavy Strikers with spiked clubs, spears, sabers, and finally the Archers.
If they were at the edge of the desert, there might be cavalrymen, but they were deep in the desert! There were only infantry.
He was close! He was close! It was a pity to see the expressions of the soldiers at the front.
They had 15 times more soldiers than the enemy! In the eyes of the other party, this was simply a massacre without any suspense. They did not even set up a formation and directly charged forward.
"Release the arrows!"
Rows of arrows whistled through the air, and within a dozen breaths, more than a thousand people had fallen to the ground. However, this number was too small compared to the huge number of thirty thousand.
" Shield Hand Circle Defense!" Chang Fan roared.
These muscular men with an average height of more than 1.9 meters stood in a row outside. They held a huge shield in their left hand and a saber in their right hand, ready to defend.
As the melee began, the enemy's sabers slashed at the shield wielders, but most of them were blocked by the giant shields that were one meter tall and half a meter wide. Immediately after, the sabers were used to meet their bodies, or the spears were used to stab them. The pursuers who were further away kept falling under the flying arrows. At such a close distance, the legendary 100% accuracy had finally appeared!
Almost every time they attacked the enemy, hundreds of corpses were left behind, and more than a dozen of the defenders died, and the others immediately filled the gaps.
The entire desert! Killing was everywhere! There was blood everywhere! Blood soaked through the sand, and the defenders 'physical strength was getting closer and closer to their limits.
Finally, the defensive formation was torn apart, and the defenders were split in half.
"Set up a five-man battle formation!" Chang Fan saw that the gap could no longer be blocked and shouted!
Despite the chaos and fatigue, the defending soldiers quickly got into formation, showing the Flying Tigers 'well-trained soldiers. However, the small groups that had lost their shield operators were immediately drowned by the sea of people. In just ten minutes, more than four hundred people had died, which was several times more than the previous few hours!
"Damn it! They were cavalrymen and would not dismount to fight. They were arrogant and underestimated their enemies. We are infantrymen, we are elites that are one in a hundred. Our morale is high, but we are still waiting for fatigue! Why wasn't there the strategy of fighting one against ten or defeating more with fewer people? They had only killed seven to eight thousand people and their formation was broken!”Chang Fan complained after stabbing a soldier.
"Boss, we're fighting 15 people at once.”Liao Sikai shouted with a bitter smile after he finished shooting the last arrow and picked up a saber.
The pursuers surrounded the groups of soldiers. The front of the group slashed at the shield with their sabers, while the shield wielder's sabers slashed at the enemy's head without mercy. The strong heavy attacker behind the group swept his fifty kilogram spiked club forward, often taking the lives of a few people at a time. However, the others would also take the opportunity to leave a few wounds on his strong body. There was a macheteman on each side, and the gunmen supported him from both sides in the middle...
The sky was getting dark, but the shouts did not weaken. The belief of survival could not give the soldiers eternal strength. Their huge shields were so clear, their sharp swords had long been cut, their hands holding the spiked clubs had long been trembling, and the gunmen in the middle could not handle the night with ease. It seemed that the enemy would never be able to kill all of them.
More and more people fell, faster and faster! There were less than a hundred people left, but they were still fighting. They were true warriors and would never give up!
From noon to dusk, the battle continued. Blood seemed to flow endlessly, and the blood-red sunset had lost its color!
Tong Zhan had long forgotten how many blades he had blocked and how many people he had killed. As a shield hand, he had to protect himself and his left and right. If the shield couldn't make it in time, he would use his body and arms to block the blades for Xiang Tao and Liao Sikai! When his trembling right hand stabbed into the enemy's body again, before he could retract his arm, another person mercilessly cut off his arm from the side!
"Ah!" Tong Zhan roared. He swung the shield in his left hand and smashed the man's head into pieces. However, his body no longer had any defense. Three knives stabbed into his wide body!
"Motherf * cker!" Xiang Tao slashed down the three of them while Chang Fan, who was in the middle, rushed towards Tong Zhan.
"Tong Zhan, how are you?"
"Boss, how was my defense? I didn't embarrass my father, right?”Tong Zhan said with a trembling voice.
"No, no, you're the best!”Chang Fan cried.
Tong Zhan used his remaining right hand to grab Chang Fan and smiled.""Yes! We ~ are all the best. In our next life ~ we ~ will ~ be ~ brothers ~.”
"Tong Zhan! Tong Zhan…!" Chang Fan shouted at the top of his lungs. Unfortunately, he would never agree to it again.
"I'll smash you bastards to death!" Zhang Fei, who was the best friend of Tong Zhan and was usually the most honest and honest, waved his spiked club crazily at the crowd in anger, completely ignoring the sabers coming from both sides!
"Kill!" Chang Fan threw away his spear and picked up Tong Zhan's battle sword to slash at the enemy.
"Kill!"
The number of wounds on their bodies was rapidly increasing. Because they had lost the bravest shield wielder in the world!
Zhang Fei! From the beginning to the end, he did not defend himself. He had always fought with his life in exchange. There were dozens of wounds on his body, and there were no intact parts of his two-meter-tall body! Has the blood dried up? Did he run out of strength? Are you tired? He had finally fallen!
"Kill one and you'll make a profit. I've made a big profit!" This was the last sound he left in this world!
Liao Sikai also fell down. Archers were weak to begin with. A knife pierced through his heart, and Xiang Tao split that person in half.
"Brother's blade skills are not as good as yours. I won't be an archer in my next life.”He looked at Xiang Tao with a smile. Even when he died, he was still smiling. What else in this world could make him afraid?
Out of the two thousand brothers who had gone through life and death together, only Chang Fan and Xiang Tao were left. They continued to fight back to back. More and more wounds appeared on their bodies, and their bodies became weaker and weaker…At this moment, Chang Fan saw the camel in the distance. The enemies weren't fools. While they surrounded Chang Fan and his group, they sent people to continue chasing after them. Wu Jin had been captured.
Chang Fan bitterly thought of four words-completely annihilated!
The leader of the pursuers, Chi Xi, was furious. Thirty thousand men were fighting against two thousand men, and they had actually lost more than twenty-six thousand men. This was simply a great humiliation!
"Chop off their heads and bring them to Tianjing as a tribute.”He roared angrily!
"Since you've already killed them, why do you have to do this, General?”A middle-aged man suddenly appeared in the sky. He was standing on a flying sword, and he had a compassionate look on his face.
