Brocade tears

The choice Meng Kuang made at the critical juncture was to run away in a horse-drawn carriage instead of rescuing Guo Dayou who was picked off his horse.Because she knew in her heart that the purpose of these bandits who attacked them was to rob the people in the carriage, not to kill Guo Dayou.She drove away in a carriage, one was to avoid the worst situation of being surrounded by many people, and the other was to help Guo Dayou lure the enemy away so that Guo Dayou could be rescued.

Although the carriage escaped the charge of the black-armored knight for a while, it broke out.But Meng Kuang, who was driving the carriage, knew that the speed of the carriage was not comparable to that of a galloping horse alone, and they would be overtaken in a short while.In fact, the sound of horseshoes behind them was getting closer and closer, and the people in the carriage could see through the rear window that the long lance in the hands of the leading black-armored knight could almost reach the rear wall of the carriage.

"Lv Jingshi, get out and drive! Rush into the city!" Meng Kuang shouted into the carriage. At this critical moment, she couldn't care less about lowering her voice. After all, Guo Dayou was not by her side, and the pursuers were behind her. The sound should be masked by the sound of hooves and wind.

After shouting, Meng Kuang got off the horse's reins directly. As soon as Lu Jingshi got out of the carriage and grabbed the reins, Meng Kuang rolled over on the roof of the carriage again.She knelt on one knee on the roof of the car, holding the sword out of its sheath in her hand.Once the pursuers from behind catch up, she will attack immediately.

Perhaps because he was afraid of Meng Kuang's close approach, the leading black-armored knight smartly slowed down his horse and did not continue to press on, but he still followed behind relentlessly.Meng Kuang was quickly thinking about the other party's intentions in his mind. The other party's original plan must have been to intercept them outside the inner city, and then take them away.But right now they still found an opportunity to escape to the city.This makes Ma Qian's knight, the most favorable terrain for him is the open area, and street fighting in the city is Meng Kuang's main battlefield, which will inevitably put him at a disadvantage.He slowed down the speed of the horse at this time, isn't he afraid of letting them escape into the city?

Meng Kuang felt that something was wrong, she turned her head and glanced at the Chaoyangmen gate that was getting closer behind her, and found in despair that the gate had been closed, and the suspension bridge over the moat in front of the gate had been raised.However, it's not yet the time for the curfew to close the door. At this time, the early closing of the door must be instigated by these people.Sure enough, the background of the people who attacked them was by no means simple.

"Lu Jingshi! Turn around!" Meng Kuang shouted anxiously.At this time, Lu Jingshi also noticed the abnormality, and hurriedly used all his strength to turn the horse's head to the right.The horse neighed, the wheels of the carriage creaked dangerously, the entire body of the carriage flew up, and one wheel was already off the ground.The screams of the women came from inside the car. Meng Kuang quickly pressed his body against the tilted side on the roof of the car, stomped heavily, and stepped on the edge of the carriage. When they reached the ground, the carriage wobbled to stabilize the ground and accelerated to a gallop.

Meng Kuang's face sank like water, and she was already determined to give up. It seemed that if these pursuers were not completely dealt with today, she would never be able to escape safely.Meng Kuang knew that her strength was close combat. She had almost never encountered opponents in close combat, but she rarely encountered horse combat, so she could not let the opponent drag her into horse combat.

The black-armored knight was also afraid of her getting close, so he kept a safe distance from the carriage to prevent Meng Kuang from jumping directly onto him from the carriage.The long lance in his hand was also held tightly. Once Meng Kuang dared to jump out of the car and rushed towards him, the long lance in his hand would be shot out without hesitation, piercing Meng Kuang right through.

This is a game, the brave wins.The black armored knight still underestimated Meng Kuang's determination to defend the carriage and her determination and bravery. At the same time, he really underestimated Meng Kuang's physical ability.She suddenly stood up on the roof of the carriage, took a few steps back to the edge of the bottom of the carriage, then suddenly jumped up, took two steps towards the run-up, leaped high and high, her body was locked in the air in the shape of a knee-hugging body, and the sword was blocked by the in front of you.The black-armored knight gritted his teeth, and the horse came out of the hole like a dragon, stabbing towards Meng Kuang who was leaping forward.But Meng Kuang had been prepared for a long time, and the scabbard in front of him pressed down hard, brushing the sharp edge of the horse's lance, but the lance failed to pierce Meng Kuang, and passed through her armpit, and the sharp golden sound of iron scraping To his ears, the black-armored knight could only feel an unparalleled force that directly crushed his stabbing momentum. His tiger's jaw was shattered, his teeth under the mask were clenched, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

However, his posture was already old at this time, and it was too late to turn back to defend himself. He tried to avoid Meng Kuang but couldn't do it sideways. When he got in front of him, he let out a short muffled grunt, and was directly stunned by Meng Kuang's high-falling knee. He fell back on his back and fell off the horse, and the long spear in his hand fell in response.And Meng Kuang also fell off the horse with him. After the knee hit, she was still wrapped up, and when she landed, she rushed forward and rolled several times before stopping.This jump was also a risky attempt for her. The impact after landing made her unable to stand up for a while, and she finally stood up covered in dust, and her right knee suddenly felt a sharp pain.And the black-armored knight was lying a few steps away from her, his face was open, his face covered with blood, and he was unconscious. The huge impact had broken his nose bridge and damaged his brain.

The enemies from behind were rushing towards them. Meng Kuang didn't have time to catch his breath. After getting up, he went straight to pick up the long spear that the black-armored knight had dropped. She had just picked up the spear when the pursuers had already arrived.Meng Kuang had practiced marksmanship, and although he was not proficient, he could wield it enough to fight against the enemy. At this time, he danced a long spear to fight against the enemy's cavalry on foot.The cavalry was afraid of the long spear and did not rush to attack. Three of the six knights were shot down by Meng Kuang, and there were three others. They surrounded Meng Kuang on horseback and circled around her.The two bowmen/crossbowmen driving the freight carriage behind had also arrived and started shooting at Meng Kuang through the gap in the encirclement.

Meng Kuang knew in his heart that he couldn't love to fight, and he had to fight quickly.Hit two arrows with a long spear, and immediately returned the carbine by surprise, and directly hit the side of a knight behind her, knocking the knight off the horse. There was a terrible bloody gash in the waist and abdomen, and the knight fell to the ground. He screamed unceasingly, startled his horse, and was trampled on his leg, and the leg bones were turned out. It was really horrible.

Meng Kuang got on his horse directly, lifted the rein and clamped his abdomen, and controlled the horse in an instant with his superb riding skills. He used his long spear to deflect the arrows again, and rushed straight towards the archer regardless of the remaining two knights. .The archers knew they were in danger, and immediately drove the carriage to retreat, but they were too late, Meng Kuang rushed to them, they had no time to shoot with bows and arrows, so they could only take out their knives to defend themselves, but how could a white iron knife be as heavy and sharp as a horse's lance? Those who blocked it, couldn't stand it after a few slashes, and the two were quickly stabbed by Meng Kuang and fell on the edge of the carriage.

The two knights at the back knew that the situation was over, one of them immediately stopped caring about Meng Kuang, and rode away, not knowing whether to run away or to chase the carriage driven by Lu Jingshi, while the remaining one was waving a long ax in his hand to fight for his life.Meng Kuang galloped his horse towards him, raised the spear in his hand, and pointed the sharp point at the man's throat.Facts have proved that in Ma Zhan, the weapon is inch-long and inch-strong. The long ax was defeated by the horse lance. In the first confrontation, he was defeated by Meng Kuang. He was picked up by Meng Kuang, and he curled up in pain, unable to hold the long ax in his hand. , fell to the ground.Meng Kuang turned around and threw out the last flying knife hidden in his sleeve, which directly cut the back of his neck and knocked him off his horse.

Immediately, Meng Kuang galloped his horse to chase the carriage and the last enemy. When he passed by the black armored knight who was lying on the ground, he leaned forward to catch him, grabbed him on the horse, and led him to chase.This person is a key person, it should be interrogated to find out who is behind the pursuit of them.Although Meng Kuang has almost confirmed that it is Lu Wang's appointment, she still needs conclusive testimony.

She soon saw the last enemy who left early, he was really chasing the carriage and did not run away.Seeing that Meng Kuang was about to catch up, he took out a cannon-shaped thing from his waist, rubbed the lighter ring on the sulfur-coated tinder with his fingertips, and it was lit, and then he went to With a fierce throw in the air, the cannon exploded in the air, and red fireworks burst out.

This guy is calling for reinforcements, but he still has accomplices?Meng Kuang gritted his teeth and tried his best to catch up with the horse, finally driving alongside the man.The knife in the man's hand immediately slashed towards him, but his movement was still too slow. The knife in Meng Kuang's hand flew straight away, and the knife spun violently, splitting most of his neck open, and the blood flowed wildly. , he was killed instantly and fell off his horse.

Meng Kuang rushed to the side of the carriage and shouted to Lu Jingshi who was nervously driving the carriage:

"Quick! Go through the fire gate and enter the city!"

Lu Jingshi nodded to express his understanding, Sui'er, Meng Yan and Bai Yuyin all looked out of the car window anxiously, and they were secretly relieved to see that Meng Kuang was unharmed.They saw the scene of Meng Kuang fighting the enemy outside just now, and they were really terrified, making people's hands and feet cold and blood flowing backwards.

"Brother, what about Guo Dayou?" Meng Yan asked, she had always been the kindest person, and worried about Guo Dayou who was left behind.

"It's okay, he will catch up." Meng Kuang didn't explain too much, and didn't plan to go back to Guo Dayou.The most urgent task now is to get the carriage out of danger.

Riding a bicycle, they quickly drove northward along the moat on the edge of the city wall. After traveling for less than a quarter of an hour, they approached the Zhongshan mountain, and a large number of camps appeared on the right hand side. This is the station of Xiaolingwei. .Going further into the mountains is the Xiamafang in front of Xiaoling Mausoleum.And bypassing the southern foot of Zhongshan Mountain, continue along the moat to the north and west, and soon you will see a large lake in front of you, which is the back lake, and the Taiping gate is on the edge of the back lake.Houhu Lake, also known as Xuanwu Lake, got its name because it was said that a black dragon emerged from this lake in ancient times, and it happened to be located in the north of the city.Houhu is a natural moat in the northeast of the city wall. At the same time, Liangzhou, an island in Houhu, also has a national yellow book warehouse, which is a forbidden area heavily guarded by soldiers and has been closed for many years.

Just when the waves of the lake came into view and the Taiping Gate was within easy reach, pursuers appeared lingeringly behind them on the right side. This group of pursuers probably ambushed in the vicinity of the Taiping Gate. After seeing the signal, they chased after them. come up.

"Keep up, get into the city before they catch up!" Meng Kuang shouted.

Lu Jingshi's whole body was already drenched with sweat. Today is the most exciting day of his life. The sweat from his palms made him unable to grasp the reins of the car.And the horse pulling the cart in front was already dripping with sweat, panting and unable to run, and the speed of the carriage kept dropping.

Meng Kuang turned his head and glanced at the pursuers. It was dark, at least a dozen or 20 people, flying with horseshoes, coming from the dust.She couldn't help being anxious, but she also knew that her horsepower was limited, and it seemed that she had to stay behind again.

Just as Meng Kuang slowed down his horse, intending to break the rear of the carriage, Lu Jingshi suddenly pointed forward and shouted in surprise: "No, the Taiping gate must be closed!"

Startled, Meng Kuang turned his head to look at the city gate, only to see that the city gate was closing slowly.She exclaimed inwardly, if the emergency exit is also closed, with the current horsepower of the carriage, they will definitely not be able to outrun the pursuers, and her strength alone is limited, two fists are no match for four hands.Just now, she had exhausted all her strength to fight against the enemy. She used up all the hidden weapons and crossbows/arrows on her body, and only had a sword on her body. There was really no way to deal with so many enemies while protecting the carriage.With a flash of thought in his mind, Meng Kuang put an end to his broken thoughts, and immediately swung his sword and lashed the horse's buttocks, making a deep bloodstain, urging the horse to burst forward with the last strength.

"Rush in!" she said decisively.

Amidst the horse's sharp neighing, the whole carriage seemed to fly and accelerate!accelerate!Speed ​​up!The women in the carriage couldn't even sit still, they could only tremble and hug each other, leaning on the carriage to stabilize their bodies as much as possible, sobbing and screaming.When the out-of-control horse ran to the Taiping Gate, Lu Jingshi was shocked to realize that the opening of the Taiping Gate was shrunk inside along with the arc of the city wall, and he needed to turn left to enter the city. , is the sparkling Xuanwu Lake.

Only at this time did he realize that he could no longer control the horse. No matter how much he pulled the rein, the out-of-control horse refused to listen to his words and turned, but instead rushed straight into the lake.

"Meng Kuang! I can't hold the horse anymore!!!" He yelled anxiously.

Meng Kuang had already noticed this situation. She was driving the horse from the right side of the carriage to the left side, trying to grab the horse's bridle and cage to force the horse to turn left.However, such a huge force is beyond her human power. Even though she tried her best, the veins all over her body bulged, and even though she pulled the horse's head around, she was immediately pulled away by the huge forward force of the whole chariot. Being dragged down on the mount, she struggled to grab the bridle and dragged her feet on the ground, trying to use her body to stop the carriage, but her strength was too weak, and it would be difficult to achieve any results if she used her arms as a carriage.

Amidst the screams of despair, and the bang of splashes, the entire carriage dragged a car of six people into the back lake...
