242. Chapter 242 Attack


The deputy general looked around suspiciously, feeling something was wrong.

After hearing this, the second prince riding on the horse couldn't help but look at him funny.

Then he smiled and said: "What you said is a bit strange. None of our more than 3,000 horses are wearing armor. Isn't the sound of armor normal?"

"No, no, no, Your Highness, Second Prince, this is not what I mean by humble position."

The deputy general shook his head quickly.

Then he looked around again and quickly explained: "We have more than 3,000 horses, and they march in a very orderly manner."

"Even when the armor moves, the sound it makes is very orderly, but it's despicable. The movement that I heard just now seemed to come from another army.”

The second prince couldn’t help but be stunned when he heard this.

If the deputy general only mentioned it once, then he might not care.

But the deputy general mentioned it again now, and even he felt a little uneasy.

The second prince thought for a while and looked forward and backward. Apart from his regiment of guards, there was no one else here at all.

"According to your words, if someone really wants to ambush us, where will they hide? Could it be hidden underground?"

The deputy general said quickly: "Not hiding in the ground It’s underground, but hidden in the mountains!”

“This place is too narrow, and there is only one passage. If we don’t get through quickly, we will be blocked from behind and we will not be able to break out.”

“Especially because this mountain is too steep. If there is an ambush up there, just by pushing down a few boulders, we will suffer numerous casualties.”

"Please give your order, your highness, we must pass here quickly!"

The deputy general's face became serious. The more he looked at this place, the more panicked he became, fearing that someone was ambushing here.

If something happens by then, even he will not be able to escape with the second prince.

But he still felt something was wrong.

You know, this is still within the territory of the Zhou Dynasty after all, and there is no way those bandits can come to provoke them.

Is it possible that someone from an enemy country is really ambushing here?

“Give me the order!”

The second prince’s face also became solemn, and he ordered to the deputy general: “Pass this prince’s order, let everyone move forward quickly!”

The deputy general immediately asked the messenger to pass the order from the front to the back of the queue.

At this time, he also forgot that he had heard the inexplicable sound of armor just now.

Unknown to everyone, a heavily armed army was ambushing the mountain at this moment.

Although there are only a few hundred people, once these people attack them, it is impossible for them to escape from here.

With the order, the army moved faster.

It’s just that this line of sky is too long and narrow. After the three thousand Guards Corps entered, the people at the front didn’t even get out.

Xuan Ye was hiding at the peak of Yixiantian when he saw the second prince and the three thousand soldiers of the Guards Corps all entering Yixiantian.

The expression on his face suddenly became cold and stern.

"Come here, tell me my order! Push the boulder at the entrance down the mountain!"

"Yes!"

The messenger immediately sent the message over.

After a while.

There was a loud rumbling sound, and at the entrance, several boulders on the mountain peak quickly rolled down the cliff.

For a time, dust and smoke filled the air, and the ground shook.

Especially the gravel on the surrounding hillside is falling continuously.

Suddenly, the second prince's retreat was cut off.

The sudden change caused the second prince, the deputy general, and the three thousand imperial guards to panic instantly.

"What's going on!" The second prince was almost so frightened that he fell off his horse and asked the lieutenant next to him despite his fear.

The deputy general swallowed a gulp of saliva and looked at the several boulders rolling down behind him, his heart already in his throat. Even at this moment, his lips couldn't help but tremble.

“Your Highness, our retreat is blocked!”

The second sentence of the deputy general was almost a roar: “There is an ambush, there is an ambush! ”

He has also fought in many battles, so he knew that such a sudden situation must be an ambush.

It is too late for him to regret now. If he had known earlier, he would never have agreed to enter this world.

The second prince was also completely panicked, and even his body became rickets while riding on the horse.

"Then, what should we do now?"

He turned back and glanced at the many soldiers behind him. They were all beginning to become agitated and wanted to escape.

After all, this thin line of sky gives people a very strong sense of oppression.

Now when I hear that there is an ambush, it must be an ambush from a high position.

If they don’t run out quickly, they will definitely die here.

"Everyone listen to the order! Break forward according to the formation!" the deputy general shouted at the top of his voice, with a red face.

He knew that he had to stabilize the morale of the army.

At such a critical moment, the second prince was of no use at all.

So he has to be the one to take the lead.

The adjutants beside him also quickly rode to the back to stabilize the morale of the army.

It was finally possible to calm down the restless army, but at this moment, the deputy general suddenly heard the sound of the wind blowing.

He couldn't help but look up, and then his whole expression changed completely.

The deputy general's face was extremely pale, and his heart seemed to be about to jump out of his chest.

Using all his strength and the last of his sense, he shouted: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

"Break through with all your strength! Protect His Highness! Find cover with the heavy troops!"

When the second prince heard this, he was also a little confused.

“Whoosh!”

Just before he could figure out the situation, he suddenly saw an arrow falling from the sky out of the corner of his eye and piercing the head of a soldier not far away!

A burst of blood mist burst out.

The second prince looked up and his heart suddenly became cold.

At this moment, the sky is filled with a dense rain of arrows that blocks the clouds and the sun!

Everyone seemed to feel that the sky seemed to darken for a moment.

In the next second, countless feather arrows fell from the sky, and a large number of the guards around the second prince died in just an instant.

Before he could fully react, he felt his body light up and he was immediately lifted up by the deputy general next to him and protected under him.

"Drive!"

"Your Highness! Even if you are responsible for your death, I will definitely send Your Highness out!"

The deputy general will keep his mission firmly in mind. The prince is dead. Even if he can break out, he will not be able to escape death in the end.

"Everyone goes all out to break out!"

"We don't need supplies! Life is important!"

At this moment, an adjutant also passed over his superior deputy general and loudly issued an order behind him.

However, the deputy general had no intention of blaming him at this time.

Because he also knew very well that he could only escape for his life now, and taking these supplies would only hinder his escape.

It has to be said that the second prince still has some capable people around him.

Unfortunately, what they encountered was a dead end! (End of this chapter)
