Chapter 1241 Escape into Shengjin
In the end, they tried their best and nearly half of them died before finally escaping.
Fortunately, the group of dead soldiers did not take advantage of the victory to pursue them. Otherwise, these thousands of people would have died in their hands.
Chu Jingqi and Ao Tianchen were both injured. After learning that the Zhao family still had more than 700 dead soldiers, they would not dare to rush to attack the city again in a short period of time.
"These dead soldiers probably came back from the south. I heard that all the Zhao family's shops in the south closed down overnight." Chu Jingqi said through gritted teeth, covering her arm where the dead soldiers had slashed her.
Previously, they had recaptured the two cities occupied by the Zhao family. None of these dead soldiers showed up. This was the first time they had appeared. Therefore, Chu Jingqi, who had heard the news, guessed that they had recently arrived in the northwest.
After hearing this, Chu Yuexi frowned and said worriedly, "The Zhao family has so many dead soldiers in their hands. If they attack the military camp, wouldn't all 30,000 people die here?"
Seven hundred dead soldiers faced tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers. Although there was a huge difference in numbers, it took no effort at all for one dead soldier to kill hundreds of ordinary soldiers.
Chu Jingqi has secret guards of his own. He is very clear about the strength of the secret guards. He also knows that the assassination ability of the dead soldiers is very powerful. If hundreds of dead soldiers sneak attack on the military camp, I am afraid that tens of thousands of them will be unable to withstand it. .
"Do you think all my soldiers are really vegetarians? If they really dare to come for a sneak attack, no matter how many people come, I will make it impossible for them to come back." Chu Jingqi's face was sinister, and she exuded a sense of security. Strong murderous aura.
After collecting it in embarrassment yesterday, he simply bandaged the wound and led his people to set up a formation in the military camp overnight.
As long as the dead men of the Zhao family dare to come and invade his territory, then he will let them have no return.
"Just be prepared." Chu Yuexi wiped away the sweat, "Where is my brother-in-law? Call my brother-in-law here tonight and let's have a drink."
Chu Jingqi looked at him and said, "The emperor has not completed the tasks assigned to you. Do you still have the heart to drink?"
Chu Yuexi chuckled, "We haven't seen each other for a long time, haven't we? You are addicted to alcohol and you are injured. You can't drink. You don't have to drink. I will have a few drinks with my brother-in-law in the evening."
Chu Jingqi glanced at him and said lightly, "Ao Tianchen was injured more seriously than me."
"What, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Chu Yuexi became anxious and jumped to her feet, "Where is he? Take me there quickly."
Then he muttered and complained, "It's not like you don't know that my Qinghui girl regards my brother-in-law as more important than me. If I knew that my brother-in-law was injured, I would still be here to talk to you like this. If there are too many, she will definitely be so angry that she will eat me.”
"You didn't ask." Chu Jingqi said innocently.
After Ao Tianchen and Chu Jingqi met outside Shengjin City, the two groups camped together. However, in order to prevent the Zhao family from sneak attacks, the two groups of soldiers and horses guarded each other. One occupied the east and the other occupied the west. , the distance in between is less than half a mile.
Soon, Chu Yuexi saw Ao Tianchen lying on the bed with a pale face.
"Brother Wang." Chu Yuexi took three steps at a time, walked over, and then grabbed his wrist. For just a moment, he stared at Ao Tianchen in shock, "Are you injured internally?"
< br>
Ao Tianchen's external injuries were only minor injuries, but his internal injuries were more serious.
He couldn't dodge yesterday and was slapped by the leader of the dead soldiers. That palm had very strong internal energy. If he hadn't also had deep internal energy to protect his body, his internal organs would have been shattered by that palm. .
Chu Yuexi put down his hand, took out a healing pill from her body with a solemn expression, stuffed it into Ao Tianchen's mouth, then helped Ao Tianchen sit up and said, "I'm here to heal you." Then he turned to Chu Jingqi and said, "Aqi, help us protect you."
Chu Jingqi hummed, then went outside the tent and stood at the door of Ao Tianchen's tent, like a statue. He was in a hurry when he escaped yesterday. After returning to the military camp, he was busy setting up the formation. He didn't ask much about Ao Tianchen's injuries. He only thought that Ao Tianchen was just like him, with just some flesh wounds.
Unexpectedly, he also suffered internal injuries. If he had known it, he would have come to treat him long ago.
It wasn't until night, when the lanterns in the military camp were lit, that Chu Yuexi came out of the tent, opened the curtain, and saw Chu Jingqi standing upright at the door. He was so angry that his liver ached, "Why don't you get a chair to sit on?" , you are also a wounded person, you need to take a good rest, if your body collapses, these tens of thousands of people are helpless, what do you tell them to do?”
Why are these two people so uneasy?
Then he said, "For the two thousand people I brought, you first send someone to arrange a place to stay. I will consider the matter of arresting Le Ying."
He would first send a small team of people to the last town he passed to investigate. If he found out that Le Ying was still in that town, he would arrest them immediately.
A woman's martial arts skills are not very strong. No matter how smart she is, once a fight begins, she will be unable to defeat four punches with both hands.
In fact, it didn't even take ten people to catch her. The emperor sent two thousand elite soldiers to him because he was worried that Le Ying had escaped and the troops needed to be spread out.
Chu Jingqi arranged all of his 2,000 elite soldiers in Ao Tianchen's camp. After all, the troops brought by Ao Tianchen were much less than his, and a lot of them had been sacrificed recently, so new blood needed to be added.
Chu Yuexi also moved into Ao Tianchen's tent and took care of him nearby.
That night, Chu Yuexi sent a small team to kill a carbine.
When they rushed to the town and arrested some people in the inn for interrogation, they learned that Le Ying had actually left the town long ago and was still walking in the direction of Sheng Jin.
The team came back overnight.
After Chu Yuexi learned the news, she scratched her hair irritably, "This person is coming this way, but he has not entered the city. Can he still fly?"
Then he ordered the team, "Continue to send people to search every village along the way. I don't believe it. She can still fly into the sky?"
At this time, Chu Jingqi sent someone to tell him that there was a trail leading to Shengjin City fifteen miles away.
And just the afternoon before yesterday, a woman wearing a black skirt and a white gauze entered Shengjin.
Chu Yuexi jumped up when she heard this, "So, Le Ying is in Shengjin at the moment?"
If he wanted to catch her, wouldn't he also have to enter the tiger's den?
If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get the tiger's cubs. Today, he fought hard.
Chu Yuexi gritted her teeth and immediately ordered the team leader who had not left yet, "Prepare twenty people, dress up as nearby residents, and follow me into Shengjin City."
"Yue Xi, don't be impulsive. Sit down and discuss before making a decision." Ao Tianchen said.
