Chapter 374: Zhu's Army's Defeat
Realizing that something happened to Han Xian, Deng Youning was anxious to go over and find out what happened. She stabbed the sword in her hand at the surrounding Zhu family soldiers, trying to kill her way out of these people.
However, these Zhu family soldiers are easy to deal with, but the iron house that is invulnerable to swords and guns is really a headache.
Just when everyone was in trouble, several mechanical birds flew over from the sky.
Deng Youning and Li Tianzhuo are very familiar with this big wooden bird.
Deng Yanan is here to support!
They had thought he wouldn't come.
"Ningning, long time no see—"
Sitting next to Deng Yan'an was Jun Wenying, who was happily greeting Deng Youning at this moment.
The moment she saw Jun Wenying, Deng Youning couldn't help but smile.
All in all, she has been in Nanxin for a year and a half. She has not returned to Dongji during this year and a half, so naturally she has not seen Jun Wenying.
After such a long time, she has become more mature and beautiful.
"Everyone, get out of the way, stay away from that tin house!" Deng Yan'an reminded everyone loudly.
They were flying high in the sky on mechanical birds, and the sound of their loud shouts downwards seemed particularly loud.
Lu Zhaoye didn’t know Deng Yan’an, and looked at Deng Youning with some concern.
It was not until Deng Youning nodded at him and gave him a look that told him to retreat safely that he ordered his men to leave.
Li Tianzhuo and General Han also commanded the soldiers from Nanxin and Dongji to run towards the city gate of Cangzhou.
After everyone was ready, Deng Youning discovered that Han Xian's body was still in the hands of General Zhu.
"etc!"
"Cousin, you can't blow it up!"
She hurriedly shouted to stop Deng Yan'an, and motioned for them to look at General Zhu who was standing on the tin house waiting for Deng Yan'an to throw the explosives.
At General Zhu's feet lay Han Xian's body, waiting for Deng Yan'an to blow it up.
He is already dead, and if his body is blown into powder, there will be no hope for him.
"I know that you Dongji's firearms are the most powerful. This kid's body is right here. If you don't want to see him turned into pieces, just blow him up!"
General Zhu is now at the end of his strength.
There were not many people left in the Zhu family army to begin with, and they were almost wiped out in the melee just now. Now there are only three to five hundred people left, and the army is in complete disarray.
"Mr. Zhu, what do you want in exchange for returning my grandson's body?" General Han asked angrily.
Their Han family has few descendants, and this is the only heir of the Han family!
"Old Han, I never really wanted to kill your grandson. You and I can be considered heroes who respect each other."
"I know that our Zhu family is doomed today."
"I only ask that after we lose the war, you can stay with my two grandchildren for me."
He was referring to Dalang and Silang of the Zhu family who were standing beside him.
But, how is this possible?
If you don't remove the roots of the grass, won't you be leaving yourself with trouble?
General Han thought about it carefully.
He said in a heavy tone: "Xiao'an, you guys put the gunpowder."
Has he made the decision to blow up Han Xian's body as well? !
Deng Youning looked back at him in disbelief.
General Han took the initiative to explain: "Xian'er chose to commit suicide because he didn't want to become a burden to us. He is already dead, and his body will rot in the ground sooner or later."
"Let's blow it up. Only the flesh and blood left on the battlefield will be worthy of the iron bones of my Han family's sons."
General Han, who had spent his entire life in military service, finally made a decision.
Although Lu Zhaoye couldn't bear to see Han Xian's body, he also knew that the most appropriate option was to blow it up directly.
It seems that General Zhu just wants to save his two grandsons. If he really lets them go, who knows how he will make a comeback.
Only if they are all blown to death together will there be no problem.
Deng Yan'an was also very obedient. He found the right moment and really dropped the gunpowder.
There were a few loud rumbling noises, thick smoke billowed all around, and the fire suddenly jumped up. Soon, even General Zhu and the body of Han Xian who were standing on the roof of the tin house were submerged in the thick fog.
"Cousin Han——"
Deng Youning shouted again reluctantly.
Li Tianzhuo, who was not far from her, saw this and knew that she and General Han were reluctant to part with Han Xian. Even though Han Xian was dead, it would be a good thought if they could keep his body and build a grave for him.
He also made up his mind.
When Nangong and Lao Geng couldn't see him, he used his lightness skills to slip into the thick fog.
Nangong and Lao Geng were stunned and tried to chase him, but Li Tianzhuo had disappeared.
After Deng Youning discovered it, he also ran over. Just as he reached the edge of the thick fog, a ball of fire suddenly jumped out of the fog, as high as a person.
"Ning Ning——"
Lu Zhaoye discovered that Deng Youning was in danger, and quickly stepped forward to pull her back.
"Azhuo, Azhuo has gone in..."
Deng Youning was so anxious that he was incoherent.
When everyone heard this, their eyes widened, and even Deng Yan'an and Jun Wenying who were flying in the air came down.
Everyone stared blankly at the thick fog.
The thick smoke mixed with raging flames was like a demon that devoured everything, and it automatically formed a barrier to separate them from Deng Youning and the others.
"He went in to look for Xian'er's body!"
General Han sighed, feeling extremely guilty.
"Azhuo, why are you so stupid?"
"Azhuo, come out!"
"A Zhuo..."
Deng Youning struggled, trying to break free from Lu Zhaoye's hand and go into the thick fog to find Li Tianzhuo.
But now it was not only Lu Zhaoye who was pulling her back. Nangong, Lao Geng, Deng Yan'an and Jun Wenying were all trying to stop her.
"Lord Li is a martial arts expert. Perhaps we don't have to worry too much. He will definitely come back safe and sound." Jun Wenying is an optimist and always thinks positively about everything.
"No, you let me in. Even if we want to take Cousin Han's body out, we should go in together."
"I can't watch him take risks alone."
"Azhuo——"
Deng Youning shouted his name heartbreakingly.
Han Xian was already dead, and she couldn't let anything happen to Li Tianzhuo.
"I will go find them today. If you try to stop me again, don't blame me for poisoning you."
Deng Youning was already planning to take action.
"Let's go together!"
Lu Zhaoye really cares about Deng Youning. Even though he knows that she only has Li Tianzhuo in her heart, he still thinks of her without any regrets.
Deng Youning knew that it was dangerous in the thick fog, so she couldn't let him die with her. She took out the sleeping pills and was about to knock him unconscious when General Han suddenly shouted in surprise, "Look."
Following his gaze, Li Tianzhuo was slowly walking out of the thick fog, carrying Han Xian's body.
Compared to when he went in, he looked a little haggard.
But fortunately no one was injured.
At least, on the surface, everything looks fine.
Deng Youning and others ran towards him quickly.
Li Tianzhuo seemed exhausted. After coming out, he knelt down on the ground and put Han Xian's body on the ground.
"Azhuo——"
Deng Youning ignored the smoke and dust on him and rushed forward to hug him.
Deng Yan'an and others also moved Han Xian's body away.
"Ningning, my cousin's body is intact..."
Li Tianzhuo rested his chin on Deng Youning's shoulder, as if he had found a point of support, and fell into a coma.
