Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 8 Thrilling Night

Liu Jing patted Zhao Yun's hand lightly, got up and walked outside the cave, "What's going on?"

"Look, son!"

Wu Xiu pointed down the mountain, terrified, Liu Jing followed his finger to look, his heart sank, he saw a long line of torches appearing on the mountain road, about several miles long, like a fire dragon, tens of thousands of people, already There are countless torches moving up the mountain. This must be the arrival of the main force of Cao's army, and they want to search the mountain comprehensively.

The magnificent momentum of tens of thousands of people scared Wu Xiu so that his face turned pale and his legs trembled. He couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and begged: "Young Master, this must be Cao Cao. I don't care about him anymore. He will drag us down. With him, we will definitely not be able to escape, we..."

Before he could finish speaking, Liu Jing knocked him to the ground with a fierce punch, pointed at him and cursed: "You ungrateful person, without him saving you, you would have died in the rebellion long ago, how dare you talk nonsense , I will kill you with one knife!"

Wu Xiu lowered his head slowly, a flash of hatred flashed in his eyes, if he was not afraid that he would not be able to explain when he went back, he would have already run away, would he come back to find this brat?

Liu Jing turned around and walked into the cave, took Zhao Yun's hand and smiled, "It seems we have to change places."

Zhao Yun heard their conversation outside and was moved. He forced a smile and said, "Actually, Cao Cao won't kill me. It doesn't matter if I get caught."

Liu Jing ignored him, and directly carried Zhao Yun on his back, "Let's go! If I don't die, you don't want to die either."

He left the cave with Zhao Yun on his back, Wu Xiu led the way, and the three continued to climb to the top of the mountain.

. . . . . . .

On the mountain road, dozens of generals surrounded a middle-aged man. He had a long beard a foot below his jaw, a straight nose, and a pair of slender eyes with very sharp eyes. He was wearing a golden helmet, a golden chain mail, and a Relying on the Heavenly Sword, riding Huang Feidian with claws under his crotch.

This person was Cao Cao. Liu Bei had fled far away, so he couldn't catch up with him, so he had to lead his troops back to Rangshan Mountain. However, he heard that the general Zhao Yun was injured and hid in the mountain.

It's not far from Jingzhou. If he can catch Liu Biao's nephew, he can go to Hanshui to meet Liu Biao for a while in the name of sending him off. It would be good to exchange Liu Bei.

In front of Cao Cao's horse, Yu Jin knelt down on one knee. At this moment, he was extremely remorseful. If he knew that the lord valued the young man so much, he would have liked him not to let him go. How stupid he is!

He didn't dare to hide anything, so he repeated Liu Jing's words, and said in great frustration: "The humble official was given a ecstasy soup, which caused him and Zhao Yun to run away under his nose. It's too late to regret it. The humble official is stupid and ruined the lord's affairs. My lord, please punish me."

Cao Cao's eyes were a little surprised. This young man was not only knowledgeable, but also bold and resourceful. It was impressive that Liu Jingsheng had such a nephew. Cao Cao became more interested. He must catch this nephew of Liu Jingsheng.

He immediately issued an order: "Pass my order, you are not allowed to set fire to the mountain, and you must be captured alive. Those who catch Zhao Yun will receive a reward of [-] catties, and those who capture Liu Biao's nephew will be rewarded with a reward of [-] catties!"

Cao Cao then ordered General Li Dian, "You can lead [-] troops to take a small path and go up the mountain from behind to cut off their retreat to the south."

"Follow the order!" Li Dian led [-] soldiers to go around the mountain road to the southwest.

Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man. Tens of thousands of soldiers of Cao Jun came up the mountain densely with torches in their hands.

. . . . . . . .

Liu Jing and the others had already climbed over the hillside and arrived at the saddle on the other side, which was covered with pine forests. At this time, Zhao Yun's injury began to attack, and he was in a semi-comatose state, with a string of blisters on his mouth. Sometimes confused, sometimes clear.

When sober, they say nothing, and when they are confused, they cry out, "Water! Water!"

He was hot all over, and he was about to become dehydrated. Liu Jing was very anxious. Zhao Yun urgently needed water and medicine. The medicine was gone. At least there must be water. If no water was found, Zhao Yun would die. He straightened up and looked around.

He was originally a young hunter with some experience. It had just rained the day before yesterday, so there would be no water in the pine forest, but in the saddle-shaped valley, he might be able to find water puddles.

He took the water bottle and said to Wu Xiu: "Take a good look at General Zhao, he has saved our lives, we must not leave him behind, I will go find water, and I will come back when I get it."

Wu Xiu nodded, "Don't worry, son! I will take good care of him."

Although Liu Jing was still worried, he had no choice but to go back quickly. He jumped off a ridge and ran towards the valley.

Looking at the back of Liu Jing going away, Wu Xiu's face changed, becoming extremely ferocious, with a fierce light in his eyes, "Boy, you want to die, but I don't want to die!"

He took out a dagger from his bosom, which he found in the skin pouch of the horse he was riding, and he kept it on his body all the time. He hid the dagger in his back and walked towards Zhao Yun step by step. . . . . .

Liu Jing was very lucky. He just ran more than a hundred steps and found a small puddle where a little rainwater had accumulated. He was overjoyed and quickly poured water into the kettle carefully. Unfortunately, there was too little water and there was only one can. The small half pot of water was gone.

Liu Jing knew that as long as he found one, there would be another nearby, but he was worried about Zhao Yun, so he turned around and ran away. . . . . . .

Wu Xiu squatted in front of Zhao Yun, holding the dagger tightly behind his back, and shouted in a low voice: "General Zhao! General Zhao!"

Seeing Zhao Yun's superb martial arts with his own eyes, he still felt trembling in his heart. If Zhao Yun could still resist, he would be dead.

At this time, Zhao Yun happened to be in the lucid stage, he slowly opened his eyes, and asked in a low voice, "Where is Mr. Jing?"

"He's gone to find water, I'll take care of you."

After speaking, he lightly pressed on Zhao Yun's wound. Zhao Yun was in unbearable pain, but he clenched his teeth firmly and did not cry out.

"General Zhao seems to be seriously injured, why don't I help you walk two steps! Move your blood."

Zhao Yun was very experienced. When he saw Wu Xiu's fierce eyes, the muscles on his face were deformed, and his appearance was ferocious, Zhao Yun immediately understood in his heart that this man had malicious intentions.

Zhao Yun was anxious, and immediately shouted in a low voice: "Young Master Jing is behind you!"

Wu Xiu was taken aback, and turned around abruptly. There was no one behind him, and there was no sign of Liu Jing. Wu Xiu had a smirk in his eyes, "So General Zhao was joking with me!"

At this time, he already understood that Zhao Yun saw through him, but he also saw that Zhao Yun was powerless to resist, Wu Xiu grinned, "General Zhao, I'm sorry, I will burn more paper for you."

He raised the dagger high, and Zhao Yun groaned in his heart. He didn't die in battle, but died in the hands of a villain. At this moment, Zhao Yun's eyes lit up, and he stared closely behind Wu Xiu.

Wu Xiu sneered, "You can't lie to me anymore, go to hell!"

Just as he was about to stab with the dagger, there was a sharp pain in his vest. He slowly lowered his head and found a sword point protruding from his chest.

Wu Xiu turned his head, only to find that Liu Jing was standing behind him, staring at him angrily, Wu Xiu raised his finger to Liu Jing, and finally shouted desperately, "You are... a fake!"

After shouting this, Wu Xiu fell to the ground and died.

Liu Jing drew the dagger from his vest, kicked him away in disgust, the body rolled around twice, but a paper bag fell out from his arms, Liu Jing picked up the paper bag and smelled it, his eyes lit up suddenly, this It was actually a pack of premium Jinchuang medicine, and this person always carried it with him.

"Damn!"

Liu Jing cursed, Zhao Yun's injury got worse because he couldn't find the medicine for the wound anywhere, this bastard obviously hid the medicine, but refused to take it out.

With the superior Jinchuang medicine, Liu Jing suddenly had hope in his heart. He hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhao Yun, and asked with concern: "General Zhao, are you alright?"

Zhao Yun whispered, "You saved my life again."

"no!"

Liu Jing said bitterly: "I know people, know faces, but don't know my heart. I was blind and brought this poisonous snake with me, which almost killed the general."

Liu Jing took the water bottle, carefully gave Zhao Yun a few sips of water, and said with a smile: "The rainwater has accumulated, so the taste is probably not good. When I go to Xiangyang City, I will buy fine wine to apologize to the general."

Zhao Yun smiled slightly, "I'll buy you a drink then!"

Liu Jing wrapped the wound medicine on Zhao Yun again, and the water and Jinchuang medicine soon had a miraculous effect. Zhao Yun's body temperature gradually returned to normal, and he was no longer scalding, which greatly comforted Liu Jing.

At this time, the sky seemed to be brighter. When Liu Jing turned his head, he saw that the hills on both sides were covered with torches. Cao Jun took a small path and went up the mountain from behind, blocking his back.

Liu Jing smiled wryly, as expected of Cao Cao, he likes to do this kind of business of stealing people's backs.

"Young Master Jing, let's go! Leave me alone." Zhao Yun also realized that their situation was extremely dangerous, and he didn't want to involve Liu Jing any longer.

Liu Jing smiled and shook his head, "Don't say such things, you didn't leave me on the battlefield, how can I leave you at this time?"

Zhao Yun looked at the young man silently, his nostrils were filled with soreness, this young man was so affectionate and righteous, how could he repay this kindness.

Liu Jing pondered for a moment, and said to Zhao Yun: "At this point, I can only take a risk. Whether we can escape this catastrophe depends on our luck."

Zhao Yun sighed softly, "I, Zhao Yun, will die without regret if I can fight to the death with the young master!"

Liu Jing got up and smiled, "Cao Jun wants to kill us, but it's not that easy."

He looked around and saw that they were between two hills. Cao's army was mainly concentrated on the north hill. Although there were soldiers cutting off their escape route on the south hill, there were not many troops, especially in the southeast, where the torches were even more sparse.

"Brother Zhao, can you take a few steps?"

Zhao Yun felt that his legs had a little feeling, so he nodded, "Let me try it!"

Liu Jing helped Zhao Yun up, and held Wu Xiu's body under his arm. He supported Zhao Yun, and fled southeast with a limp.

Liu Jing supported Zhao Yun and walked along the mountainside for a while. At this time, he found a cave. The cave seemed unfathomable. Liu Jing picked up a stone and threw it down. It took a long time for the echo to come.

This cave is not bad, it can hide the corpse, Liu Jing found a low-lying place next to it, and smiled at Zhao Yun: "Brother Zhao, lie down for a while, I'll be right back."

Zhao Yun lay down and closed his eyes. At this moment, he had given Liu Jing his honor and life.

Liu Jing covered the bodies of Zhao Yun and Wu Xiu with branches, and after checking the direction, he ran towards the southeast.

Cao Jun's search for soldiers in the southeast was not many, only more than [-] soldiers, most of them were scattered, which gave Liu Jing a chance.

About [-] steps away from the cave, Liu Jing found a Cao soldier who was alone. He threw Zhao Yun's helmet on the ground, drew out his dagger, and climbed up the tree.

Not long after, a soldier of Cao Jun came over with a torch in his hand. He found the helmet on the ground and bent down to pick it up. Just as he was looking at the helmet, Liu Jing jumped down from the tree, threw the soldier to the ground, and smashed his face Pressed in the soil, a sword pierced his vest. . . . . .

He quickly peeled off the armor of Cao Jun's soldiers, put it on for himself, and looked around, only to see another single torch not far away.

Liu Jing flew away, and soon came to Cao Jun's soldiers, hid behind a tree, when the opponent approached, he suddenly flashed out, pointed his knife at Cao Jun's soldiers' chests and shouted: "Password!"

Cao Jun's soldiers were taken aback, seeing that it was one of their own, they quickly replied: "Take the net!"

It turned out that the password was to close the net, not a chicken rib. Liu Jing smiled, suddenly pointed behind him and said in horror: "What is behind you?"

Cao Jun's soldiers turned their heads instinctively, and Liu Jing seized the momentary opportunity to slash across with his knife, sending the opponent's head flying a foot away.

At this time, Liu Jing was extremely nervous, more searches were gradually approaching Cao Jun, he was running out of time, he picked up the two corpses, turned around and ran towards the cave.

. . . . . . . .

A quarter of an hour later, Liu Jing carried Zhao Yun, who was also wearing Cao Jun's armor, on his back, holding a torch, and ran south along the mountainside. He was betting that these soldiers would never dream that their prey would fall into their own trap.

Several soldiers of Cao Jun who faced him spotted him and shouted: "Who is it, password!"

"Close the net!"

Liu Jing waited anxiously for the other party's reply as if entering a password. Obviously, the password was correct.

Several Cao soldiers stepped forward, and the leader looked at Zhao Yun, and asked with concern: "What's the matter with him? It seems to be dying soon."

Liu Jing smiled wryly, "He's my elder brother. He was bitten by a snake while searching the mountains. The snake's venom took hold. It's useless to bleed him. I need to see a military doctor right away."

At this moment, there was a commotion in the distance, and someone shouted faintly: "Found it!"

Cao Jun's soldiers became anxious immediately, they ignored Liu Jing and left them and ran towards the commotion. That was a bounty of [-] catties!The urgency to get rich made the soldiers jealous.

After a while, all the Cao soldiers in the vicinity ran away. Seeing that there were no more torches blocking the way, Liu Jing put Zhao Yun on his back and said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, we can go on the road now!"

Zhao Yun also smiled: "It looks like we don't have to die in battle."

The two laughed, and Liu Jing took big strides towards the mountains in the south.

. . . . . . . . . . .

At the foot of the mountain, generals Le Jin and Li Dian knelt down in front of Cao Cao on one knee. Le Jin said in great shame, "I have searched the mountain twice, and searched every corner, but there is no trace of them. I only found two dead bodies, one It was a middle-aged man, and the other was our brother, wearing Zhao Yun's armor, the soldiers thought they had caught him, but it turned out..."

Li Dian next to him also said shyly: "I was ordered to intercept from the south. Some soldiers have already found Liu Jing and Zhao Yun, but they are wearing our soldier's armor and know the password, so they let them go. It is estimated that Liu Jing and Zhao Yun have fled over the mountain. , I dare not hide my humble position, and I am willing to be punished by the prime minister!"

"A bunch of useless things!"

Cao Cao was extremely annoyed, and cursed fiercely, tens of thousands of people searched the mountain but couldn't catch them, and they ran away. He looked at the two corpses on the ground, and then turned back to ask Yu Jin, "Who is this middle-aged man?" ?”

Yu Jin quickly bowed and said: "It should be the person who broke out with them. The humble officer infers that it is Liu Biao's subordinates, but I don't know why they had internal strife."

'Infighting! '

What did this word make Cao Cao think of? He pondered for a long time and asked his adviser Cheng Yu, "What does Zhong De think?"

Cheng Yu understood Cao Cao's thoughts, so he stroked his gray beard lightly and said with a smile: "As General Yu and General Li said, this young man is indeed bold and has a plan, and he managed to escape the siege twice. I have to admit it. He is a genius.

If he is the son of Liu Jingsheng, the prime minister must catch him to avoid future troubles, but if it is a nephew! In fact, it is not a bad thing to let him go to Jingzhou. If the deduction is correct, this young man will definitely cause chaos in Jingzhou in the future. "

Cao Cao nodded his beard, he also thought so, Liu Jingsheng's son is like a porpoise with dog ears, but having an extra powerful nephew is like a black fish entering a fish pond, sooner or later it will cause chaos in Jingzhou.

"Zhongde thinks, can I help him again?"

Cheng Yu shook his head and said with a smile: "This subordinate feels that now is not the time. Now we should concentrate on destroying Yuan Shao and pacifying the north. Jingzhou can wait and see what happens. If the prime minister is interested in this young man, he might as well send someone to pay attention to him. When the time is right, he can take advantage of the situation." And to use him to disturb Jingzhou, since ancient times, the country's defeat has always been caused by civil strife, why should the prime minister be in such a hurry?"

Cheng Yu's words made Cao Cao think so. He pondered for a long time, and finally gave up searching for the two of them. He immediately ordered, "Retreat and return to Xuchang!"
