Chapter 116
Chapter 116
Bei Rong was dressed in blue-gray military uniform, while Chen Jun was all covered in black. The soldiers of the two armies fought together, and it was almost indistinguishable from each other when looking down from the watchtower.
Yan Cai leaned forward and couldn't tell who was who among those people, but he was able to find the figure that belonged to Jiang Manyue among a group of heads as big as sesame seeds and mung beans.
Behind Yan Cai are several personal guards.Although Yan Cai originally wanted to put all the personal guards bestowed by the emperor by his son's side, Jiang Manyue still insisted on asking a few to stay by his side.
"Be careful in everything." Jiang Manyue persuaded.Compared with the son who is already able to protect himself, Yancai is the most insecure.
Moreover, he has always had a thorn in his heart—although King Beirong has been chasing and killing Shirley, he has not found Shirley until now.
Shirley is a desperado who would rather cut his own way at a critical moment than avenge his heart, which can be seen from his willingness to kill the imperial envoy.Every day he didn't find Shirley, he couldn't rest assured.
But most people don't know what the enemy general looks like, and it is really difficult to find out the opponent at the moment. Even though Jiang Manyue has posted Hilly's portrait in the most conspicuous place in the barracks, every soldier can see it when he enters and exits. To that portrait of Shearley.
Hilly mixed with a group of people and moved quickly towards the observation deck, passing by the portrait of him hanging on a wooden stake halfway, Hilly didn't even raise his eyebrows, turning a blind eye.
With a little makeup on now, he doesn't look quite like that portrait.A group of people also said: "I heard that if anyone can catch Shirley, they will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver."
"Don't talk about it, let's go quickly. We still have tasks, what is Heli, and it has nothing to do with us. How can we meet him here, and he can't be caught. I heard that Kungfu is very good. It’s better to complete the task honestly and get the reward sooner.”
No one noticed Shirley who was in their ranks.He doesn't seem to have the slightest characteristics of Beirong people, like a complete Chen Dynasty person.
On the watchtower, Yan Cai clenched his fists excitedly. He saw with his own eyes that Jiang Manyue cut off the opponent's horse and captured Qi Zhen alive.When turning back, Jiang Manyue seemed to have sensed something, raised her head, and seemed to have seen the words on the high platform from a long distance away.
Yan Cai couldn't help but got off the observation deck.
Even the generals of Beirong were captured, and their morale was even worse. Some timid ones had already dropped their weapons and surrendered, and even their flags fell aside...
The rest resisted in the corner, and Chen Jun did not get anxious because of the obvious momentum of victory, but fought harder.
Jiang Manyue returned to the observation tower with Qi Zhen who was knocked out.He had already seen Yan Cai climbing down from the high platform.
Along the way, his subordinates congratulated him.
"Congratulations to Tanhua, you captured the opponent's general alive! Our army's victory can be expected."
There was no smile on Jiang Manyue's face, she was still indifferent, and she didn't feel proud or beaming because she had made such a great contribution.Compared with the joy brought by capturing the enemy general, it is not as strong as the joy of seeing the words.
Yan Cai walked down the gate tower in a few steps, just in time to see Jiang Manyue who got off his horse.As for the fainted Qi Zhen, Jiang Manyue threw it away and handed it over to the adjutant. The adjutant terrifiedly asked someone to bring a rope to tie Qi Zhen's five flowers together. Be good, this is an enemy general, so he can't run away in his hands.
Jiang Manyue herself, as light as a swallow, strode forward and approached Yan Cai.
Just at this moment, something happened suddenly.In a group of soldiers guarding the lookout behind Yan Cai, suddenly, one of them got into trouble and shot a bow and crossbow from his sleeve.
That bow and crossbow can shoot dozens of small arrows as thick as a finger stick at once.However, although the arrow is small, it is extremely sharp, with a glint of cold light, the tip of the arrow is in the shape of a lotus flower, and it is smeared with poison.
The personal guard immediately flew to shoot the arrow, but because the arrows were too small and thin, one or two missed and flew straight to Yan Cai.
Yan Cai didn't realize for a moment that the arrow was flying towards him, but even though he was aware of the danger, he still didn't panic at all.
Jiang Manyue is still here, and based on this alone, he doesn't panic.In any case, he thought, he would not be hurt.
Sure enough, all the remaining arrows that the guards had yet to destroy were knocked away by Jiang Manyue's Biao flying from a distance. Three sleeve arrows and one dart were inserted deeply into the ground together.
Jiang Manyue hugged Yan Cai all at once.
"How is it? Are you okay? Are you hurt? Let me see..."
It's too embarrassing for so many people to watch.Hilly was taken down by more than a dozen bodyguards.If more than a dozen personal guards can't beat one Shirley, then these personal guards can retire and return to their hometowns, and they don't have to stay by the emperor's side as personal guards anymore.
"I didn't expect you to come to the door by yourself." Jiang Manyue looked at Shirley coldly, as if looking at a dead person.
Shirley lowered his head, because he was inferior in skills, and now there was nothing to say in the opponent's hands.He pursed his lips tightly, but was slapped by Jiang Manyue.
Blood was dripping from the corner of Shirley's mouth, and his face was full of hatred for Jiang Manyue.Knowing what would be the result of being captured by Chen Jun this time, he would rather choose to die, but never thought that he would not even let him die once.
"Stop him, he may kill himself by biting poisonous medicine, don't let him die, he will live. Send him back to the capital, and the emperor will punish him!"
Hilly's mouth was pried open to check for poisonous drugs, and finally a cloth was stuffed into his mouth to prevent him from committing suicide by any means.
The two Beirong generals were captured successively. It can be said that the morale was greatly boosted, and everyone couldn't help cheering.
"Our army will win! Our army will win! The prince is mighty! Tanhua is mighty! Long live the emperor!"
A crisis seems to have passed in this way, but the lingering worries that have been lingering since yesterday have not dissipated, but have become more obvious.
But where is the danger?The enemy is vulnerable, the enemy general has been captured, and he can return to the capital on the same day.
Whoosh, piercing the air is the whistling sound of arrows whistling through the air.The arrow seemed to have no direction, it came from nowhere, and it seemed to have a direction, and it went straight to the words.
Jiang Manyue subconsciously pushed away Yan Cai and sideways dodged the arrow, but she didn't know that it wasn't just an arrow - there was an arrow, an arrow that was shot from nowhere and who didn't know who.
It was just an aimless arrow.It is estimated that the owner of the arrow did not notice where the arrow he shot went.
There is also the logo of the Chen Dynasty above the arrowhead, which looks like a blind arrow shot by an archer of Chen Jun.
That arrow could have been dodged originally, at least with Jiang Manyue's martial arts, it could have been easily dodged.But for some reason, at that moment, it was like being bewitched by an evil spirit, and Jiang Manyue couldn't escape no matter what.
Like an arrow destined to be dodged - an arrow pierced the heart from the back.
Jiang Manyue suddenly remembered that the arrow in her previous life seemed to be the same.Occasionally and inevitably, you will encounter this arrow that is destined to be inescapable.
