Chapter 1106
Chapter 1106
Cao Ming, who was in charge of the overall situation, spotted He Zhishan immediately. Under the cover of dozens of loyal soldiers, He Zhishan attempted to break through from the southwest.
Because of his instigation and uprising, he suffered the unnecessary loss of over a hundred Tiger and Leopard Cavalry...
Furthermore, the two sides had a history of conflict in politics. This caused Cao Ming, whose face was contorted with both old and new grudges, to appear extremely ferocious.
"That bastard He Zhishan is trying to break through!"
"Three teams, bypass them."
"No matter what, we can't let that old dog get away."
"Yes."
With Cao Ming's command, the three teams that broke through the encirclement directly attacked He Zhishan and his elite soldiers from the flank.
He claimed he was willing to die for the King of Shu, but once he stirred things up, He Zhishan's first thought was to escape.
As far as he was concerned, with Cao Ming appearing with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, there was absolutely no chance of success for tonight's uprising.
Keeping the green hills, you don’t have to worry about running out of firewood!
As long as he escapes from Shudu, given his prestige in Shu County, even if he 'condescends' to seek refuge with Xu Shan, Xu Shan would still give him sufficient attention in order to appease the gentry of Shu County in the future.
He was calculating in his mind, making sure everything was in order.
As for regaining power for the King of Shu...
This is a roundabout way of saving Shu!
It was precisely because of this 'backup plan' that He Zhishan, who appeared righteous and awe-inspiring on the surface, was actually extremely afraid of losing his life in private.
"Protect me! Quickly, protect me!"
"As long as I charge out and take charge of the old troops, I will surely be able to regroup and rebuild our strength."
However, things often don't go as planned!
It seems they are about to break free of their shackles and run towards freedom...
But the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Third Team charged out on horseback, putting him in a predicament once again.
In particular, the assassins around him fell one by one.
He was already completely powerless, and he was utterly terrified.
"Oh, heavens, how have you treated me so cruelly?"
"Am I, He Zhishan, destined to die here?"
With no way out, He Zhishan looked at the dozens of Tiger and Leopard Cavalrymen who had surrounded him and said with tears streaming down his face.
'bass! ’
'Sizzle.'
Just then, dozens of dark figures launched a surprise attack from behind the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry with lightning speed.
The sharp embroidered spring blades precisely sliced through the necks of these cavalrymen.
"what!"
This sudden turn of events not only alarmed the few remaining members of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Third Team, but even He Zhishan, whose life hung by a thread, was momentarily stunned.
Then, the leader of the group immediately shouted to him, "Lord He, the Holy Monk has ordered us to rescue you from the city."
"Quickly, come this way with me!"
"Ah? A holy monk?"
"The holy monk didn't abandon me?"
Upon hearing this, He Zhishan was overjoyed.
"Young man, lead the way."
"Walk."
'Pah-ta-ta.'
In the blink of an eye, He Zhishan broke through the encirclement under the cover of the first and second groups of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
The sight of dozens of riders galloping away made Cao Ming, who had been charging to the front lines and slaying stubborn generals of the city defense and patrol battalions, shout "Wah wah!" in anger.
"I'm so angry!"
'Whoosh.'
After killing several people around him, he immediately turned his horse around.
He then waved his hand and said, "Glory Team, follow me and hunt down that old dog He Zhishan."
The Glory Team is the most elite squad in the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
He was also the mainstay of Cao Ming's control over the entire cavalry!
With them clearing the way and Cao Ming's overwhelming martial prowess, they broke through the encirclement in just a few dozen breaths.
They rushed directly in the direction He Zhishan had fled.
"Old dog He!"
"If I capture you, I will not only tear you to pieces, but also exterminate your entire family."
'drive!'
……
The sudden mutiny of the two camps in the north of the city, coupled with the addition of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, made this area, which was already under curfew, sparsely populated.
Cao Ming, who led his honor guard through the encirclement, saw a dozen riders heading towards the north gate of the city a few hundred meters ahead at the end of the official road.
"run?"
"He Zhishan, even if the King of Heaven himself came today, he couldn't save you."
'Pah-ta-ta.'
As he roared these words, Cao Ming spurred his horse into a gallop.
The warhorses they rode were the fastest and most enduring in the army.
Therefore, in just a few breaths, they were about to catch up.
'bass! ’
"Whew..."
Just as Cao Ming and his men thought they were about to catch up with their opponents, a series of tripwires suddenly appeared on the dark official road.
"No, there's an ambush!"
"Abandon the horse."
Due to inertia, Cao Ming and the others tried to rein in their horses, but they had clearly missed the best opportunity.
Left with no other choice, he immediately shouted to his subordinates behind him, ready to abandon his horse at the first opportunity.
However, not every cavalryman possesses his strength and reflexes.
The warhorses, one after another, fell to the ground.
The vast majority of cavalrymen were thrown to the ground and their horses were knocked down.
A series of piercing screams and the neighing of horses suddenly echoed throughout the official road.
"put!"
What made them even more desperate was that dozens of dark figures suddenly emerged from the high ground on both sides of the official road.
At the command of the leading man, hundreds of crossbow bolts rained down on them.
"Array up!"
'Pfft. '
Cao Ming, who was still trying to reduce casualties by forming ranks, had barely finished speaking when he saw his subordinates being pierced through the body and falling to the ground.
"asshole!"
"This general is going to kill you all."
'Uh-huh. '
Relying on his power of divine punishment, Cao Ming, riding the force of the heavens, personally led several lieutenants to attack the shadowy figures on both sides.
They hoped to use this method to limit the frequency of the enemy's arrow shooting, thus creating space for their subordinates to escape.
However, as soon as they jumped, they felt several bursts of energy that locked onto their entire bodies.
"This is……"
"Ninth grade?"
"There's more than one person?"
'Whoosh! '
'puff……'
Cao Ming, who was attacked from both sides by two ninth-rank experts, crashed his plane as soon as it took off.
"General."
'Sizzle.'
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry deputy general, eager to protect his lord, was momentarily distracted and was killed by the assassin with a single blow.
The massacre at the end of the official road lasted only five minutes.
The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry's commander, Cao Ming, was on the verge of death, and countless elite troops who had come out with him had been killed or wounded!
"Master Chen, this is Sun Xiaoyu, a disciple of the Tantric sect, greeting you."
The ones who attacked Cao Ming from both sides were none other than Sun Xiaoyu and Chen Dingtian.
Upon seeing this, Chen Dingtian waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for further formalities.
At this moment, He Zhishan, who had been escorted out by the first and second groups of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, returned.
When he saw Cao Ming lying in a pool of blood, barely alive, a ferocious smile appeared on his face.
"The holy monk is truly a master strategist."
With a slight movement, he stopped and killed Cao Ming, the powerful general of the Demon Consort.
"As a result, the deputy general and the adjutant general of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry also lost their lives here."
"Now, the thousands of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are leaderless."
"The holy monk and his men will escort me back to camp. With a wave of their arms, they will surely be able to stabilize the situation."
He Zhishan, who was extremely excited, had just shouted these words when a sudden sound rang in his ears.
His expression changed drastically!
