Chapter 36 Rescue
"Oh, I see."
"General Lu, General Guan, you two must lead the cavalry to the rescue immediately."
"Remember, Miss Sikong's safety must be prioritized!"
"General Xiang, you will take one hundred soldiers and stay behind to protect the convoy."
"General Li, gather the remaining soldiers and go with me!"
Ning Quan made a prompt decision.
The convoy was attacked, and Ning Quan had to rescue it. Those were his supplies, not to mention Sikong Ruo.
"I will obey your orders!"
The generals bowed and accepted the order.
A moment later, Lu Bu and Guan Yu led the cavalry and rushed towards a place fifteen miles away.
Ning Quan personally led the infantry to follow closely behind, while Xiang Yu stayed behind to protect the convoy.
.......
At the same time, on the official road.
Sikong Ruo was still confronting the masked general.
Sikong Ruo was not stupid, and understood that every minute of delay would bring a glimmer of hope.
But apparently, the masked general won't give her long.
"Ms. Sikong, the time has come."
"I'll ask you one last time, do you surrender or not?"
The masked general said with a cold look.
"I will not surrender, even if it means death!"
Sikong Ruo flatly refused.
"Hmph, if you don't eat the toast, you'll be punished with a drink!"
"Since you are so stubborn, I have no choice but to offend you."
"Send the order, attack!"
With a cold snort, the masked general waved his hand and gave an order.
In an instant, thousands of bandits drew their swords and rushed towards the convoy.
"kill!"
Seeing the bandits rushing towards them like wolves and tigers, the people in the car dealership were unwilling to fall behind and immediately fought them.
Boom!
In an instant, the two sides collided and engaged in a fierce fight.
"Puch."
Suddenly, the sound of swords clashing became continuous.
Blood splattered everywhere and broken limbs were thrown everywhere.
In a short while, hundreds of soldiers on both sides were killed or wounded.
But the bandits were numerous and powerful, and soon gained the upper hand.
"Miss, the situation is critical. We must escape, otherwise it will be too late!"
Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the captain of the guards said hurriedly.
Sikong Ruo is the only daughter of King Zhenbei, so she is naturally protected by experts.
Among the five hundred soldiers she brought with her were twenty personal guards.
These twenty guards are all fifth-rank warriors, and the captain of the guards is even sixth-rank.
If you fight with all your might, you'll have a chance to escape.
"escape?"
"impossible!"
"Listen up, everyone. Today, I will fight to the death."
"Even if I die, I will never bring shame to American Express!"
"Now... follow me to meet the enemy. Anyone who dares to retreat will not be blamed for my ruthless sword!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Sikong Ruo rushed forward with his sword and joined the melee.
Sikong Ruo is also a warrior, and a fifth-rank warrior at that. Ordinary soldiers are no match for him at all.
"Kill, protect the lady."
The captain of the guards had no choice but to roar and lead his guards to charge forward.
Sikong Ruo's personal participation in the battle also greatly boosted the morale of the troops.
In addition, the personal guards were quite powerful and for a while, they managed to block the bandits' attack.
"Humph, you are really looking for death!"
Seeing Sikong Ruo personally going into battle, the masked general sneered.
He then drew his sword, jumped up, and slashed at Sikong Ruo.
Swish!
The masked general was extremely fast and was close in the blink of an eye.
"So fast!"
Seeing the sudden attack, Sikong Ruo's face changed and he quickly raised his sword to block it.
Ding!
The two swords collided, making a crisp sound.
"what?"
The masked general let out a light exclamation.
I didn't expect that Sikong Ruo, who was so young, could take my move.
"Humph, nothing more than that, prepare to die!"
The masked general showed a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth, then he mobilized the internal energy in his body and suddenly stabbed out with a sword.
The sword was as fast as lightning, and Sikong Ruo had no time to react.
"Don't hurt my lady!"
Seeing this scene, a personal guard was horrified and rushed over.
Clang!
The long sword pierced through the chest and nailed the guard to the ground.
Phew!
Blood gushed out, staining the clothes red.
"Hmph, you don't know how to live or die!"
Looking at the guards lying on the ground, the masked general's eyes were full of disdain.
"I want to see how many times you can hide."
The next moment, the masked general, holding a long sword, attacked Sikong Ruo again.
"Miss, hurry up, we'll cover your retreat!"
Seeing this, the captain of the guards shouted loudly.
He led several personal guards and risked his life to stand in front of Sikong Ruo, buying time for her to escape.
Phew!
However, the masked general was much stronger than them and quickly killed another guard.
A moment later, another guard had his head blown off.
"You deserve to die!"
"My Zhenbei Palace will not let you go!"
Seeing this scene, Sikong Ruo's eyes turned red and he stared at the masked general with gritted teeth.
"Haha, you want revenge? Do you know who I am?"
Hearing Sikong Ruo's words, the masked general showed a sneer.
The masked general is actually the deputy general under the command of the eldest prince, named Liu Yuanqing.
This time, they were ordered by the eldest prince to rob the transport company.
The information Sikong Ruo received was correct. Liu Yuanqing's original plan was indeed to ambush twenty miles away.
But the scouts monitoring the convoy unexpectedly discovered that Sikong Ruo actually led troops to rescue.
This discovery made Liu Yuanqing very excited. If he could capture Sikong Ruo and present him to the eldest prince, it would definitely be a great achievement!
At the same time, it also made Liu Yuanqing realize that the news of the ambush might have leaked.
Therefore, Liu Yuanqing made a prompt decision and took the initiative to attack.
While the eldest prince sent him to rob the caravan, he also sent another pair of men to deal with the ninth prince.
They were four generals surnamed Wen, and a group of bandits including Zhang Tie.
But because the two groups of people acted independently, Liu Yuanqing did not know that General Wen's group had been eliminated by the Ninth Prince.
What he didn't expect was that the Ninth Prince was not only alive, but also sent reinforcements.
Therefore, Liu Yuanqing was destined to have a tragic ending.
"Traitor, stop being so arrogant."
Just as Liu Yuanqing was grinning and preparing to take down Sikong Ruo.
An angry shout was heard not far away.
Liu Yuanqing's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he suddenly looked towards the source of the sound.
In the distance, dust was rising and hundreds of cavalrymen were rushing towards them.
Everyone is wearing armor and is fierce and murderous.
The leaders were a silver-armored general and a red-faced man.
"Ok?"
Liu Yuanqing's pupils shrank.
Hundreds of cavalrymen are not scary, what is scary is the enemy's leading general.
Judging from the aura emanating from the two of them, their strength is no less than his own.
And these people were obviously here to rescue the convoy.
However, Liu Yuanqing couldn't understand where this team came from.
Could it be the reinforcements from the Zhenbei Palace?
But even if it is, so what? There are only less than two hundred people, and they can’t cause any trouble!
"Send out the cavalry, surround and kill them all, leaving no one alive!"
With a change of mind, Liu Yuanqing sneered and gave the order immediately.
"kill!"
Suddenly, three hundred cavalrymen shouted and charged towards the enemy.
Rumble!
In an instant, the two cavalry units collided with each other, and the men and horses fell to the ground.
But the next second, Liu Yuanqing's expression suddenly changed.
Because his 300 cavalrymen could not even hold out for half a minute before they were defeated by the enemy.
The main reason for the collapse was the two opposing generals, who were too powerful.
