Upon hearing this, all his flag officers couldn't help but change their expressions. "What? Captain, if we fight to the death here, won't that eunuch Liu Ping take advantage of us?!"

"So what do you say we should do? Should we just abandon these bastards?"

Ding Run looked back at the flag officer and was also very annoyed at this time.

He originally thought that if he took action directly, he would not only be able to cut off the retreat of his flag officers, but also intimidate Ma Jianming, Tang Siru and others inside.

From his judgment, even if Governor Cao brought people with him, they would not be too many.

As long as Ma Jianming, Tang Siru and others were shocked, it would naturally be a piece of cake, and there would even be no need to waste time talking to the governor.

But he didn't expect that Ma Jianming and Tang Siru were so stubborn that they would actually risk their lives for a so-called governor.

Judging others by himself, he simply could not understand the way of thinking of Ma Jianming and others.

As a result, not only did he fail in his mission, but he was also hit by an arrow.

Although he didn't suffer any vital injuries, the excruciating pain caused beads of sweat to break out on his forehead, and he became extremely anxious.

At this time, there were still people nagging him, saying that he was getting a bargain.

"Damn it, do I want to be taken advantage of?"

He glared at all the flag officers fiercely.

The latter was just complaining casually, but he didn't expect Ding Run to be so angry. He immediately hesitated, "Well... I didn't say that, I meant..."

"Bullshit!"

Ding Run glared at the man, interrupting him and scolding him, "Stop talking nonsense! If you don't want to be taken advantage of, get rid of these bastards quickly!"

Then he shouted to the side: "Crossbowman, where is the crossbowman?"

"Here they come, the crossbowmen are coming!"

Fortunately, at this time, someone led a team of archers and hurried over.

Not only did a team of archers come.

I also brought a dozen unused short bows.

"Okay, haha...hiss~"

Ding Run was overjoyed when he saw this. Just as he was about to laugh, he accidentally moved the arrow wound on his shoulder, and suddenly he felt a piercing pain again.

Ding Run's joy instantly turned to anger. He gritted his teeth and shouted at the crossbowmen, "Shoot in there! Turn those bastards into hedgehogs!"

A group of archers naturally did not dare to neglect after hearing this, but at the same time, they also heard the movement inside. After repelling a wave of attacks from outside, they closed the door again.

Although there were windows, the light inside was dim, and the crossbowmen were shooting indiscriminately.

However, despite the advantages of terrain and light, they were unable to cause much damage to those inside. Instead, several archers outside were shot and injured by the people inside.

Ding Run became furious upon seeing this.

When the flag officers saw this, they felt a little ashamed and angry.

Someone couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, why didn't I realize that Ma Jianming and his gang of hypocrites were so powerful?"

"How about burning it with fire?"

Someone suddenly suggested.

The others' eyes lit up and they cheered.

The faces of the people inside changed, but Ma Jianming smiled when he heard people outside talking about arson.

Although they managed to hold off the current situation, that was only because the people outside valued their lives more than they did.

Once Ding Run outside was determined to drive the guards in to rush in regardless of their lives, they would definitely not be able to stop him, after all, they had far fewer people than the other side.

Or when they have shot all their arrows, the bows and crossbows outside will become unstoppable.

It would have been fine if someone outside had set the fire. In fact, if they hadn't had anything to start the fire, he would have set the fire himself first.

The fire can stop Ding Run and others from pursuing.

Instead, they were able to turn around and reunite with Tang Siru, Governor Cao and others.

If Ding Run and others wanted to intercept at the back door, they would have to go around at least one block.

Unfortunately, things were not as good as he imagined. Although Ding Run became extremely irritable at this time, he was not stupid at all.

Hearing this, he glared at the flag officer fiercely.

"idiot!

Arson? What if we set fire from the front and they run away from the back?

Then he shouted, "Everyone, get on the roof! Tear it off and shoot them down! I won't stop until I kill them all!"

After hearing these words, Ma Jianming's face really changed in shock.

He was filled with hatred, "Damn Ding Run, why didn't that arrow kill him just now?"

The other confidants were also shocked.

"Captain, we can't let them get on the roof, or we'll be dead!"

Ma Jianming certainly knew that once the outsiders got on the roof, he would be powerless to stop them.

Although they had bows and crossbows, they could not hit the enemy unless they climbed up the house through the windows.

And they couldn't get close to the doors and windows, otherwise the crossbowmen outside would instantly shoot them to pieces.

Everyone obviously realized this very quickly.

I couldn't help but frown.

At the same time, Ding Run was heard outside shouting for people to set up a ladder to the roof, and then there was a commotion, which seemed to be the sound of the ladder.

Everyone was sweating profusely, but they were at a loss as to what to do.

One of them suddenly gritted his teeth and said, "Captain, you go ahead and quickly reunite with Governor Cao. Let's just rush out and fight them!"

The other men's expressions changed slightly upon hearing this, and then they all gritted their teeth and said, "That's right, Captain, hurry up and leave. We'll all die if we stay here, so why not leave something for our brothers to remember by."

But Ma Jianming shook his head and said, "No need. Just hold on here. Everyone, be prepared. If you can hold on for a while, hold on for a while. If you can't, let's go to Yinshan together."

"But……"

Everyone wanted to persuade him again, but Ma Jianming raised his hand and said, "Don't say more. I, Ma Jianming, receive a salary from the emperor and the court, and I have been greatly favored by the emperor. I have risen from a commoner to an official with a salary of 600 dan.

How can you retreat when facing an enemy?

Moreover, my death today is the fulfillment of my beliefs, but you all died because of me, so how could I abandon you and live alone? "

Everyone's eyes flickered when they heard this, and no one said anything more.

At this moment, dust suddenly fell from the roof.

Everyone was shocked when they saw this.

Ma Jianming's face darkened as he said in a cold voice, "Here we come, get ready!"

Upon hearing this, everyone quickly loaded their crossbows, then raised their bows and crossbows and aimed upwards.

At this point there is nothing more to say, we can only fight as hard as we can!

Even if the other party is in a superior position, there is no way to take them down unscathed.

But at this moment, something suddenly seemed to happen outside.

Ding Run's voice was faintly heard, and he shouted in surprise, "Who are you? Jinyiwei is on duty. Those who have nothing to do with you should get out of here!"

Inside the house, Ma Jianming and others were stunned and didn't understand what was going on. They could only roughly guess that someone might be coming outside.

Then a gruff male voice asked, "Jinyiwei? What are Jinyiwei doing? Where is Cao Xiong?"
