Fortunately, after being tortured by Kaishan for a long time, he finally got his chance.
Perhaps thinking that Tian Mingwu had been beaten so badly that he would no longer have the strength to fight back, the second in command moved the big knife away from Li Ji, and watched Kaishan beat and humiliate him with his hands folded.
But they don't understand Tian Mingwu. He was able to rise from a soldier with no backing and no knowledge to become the general he is today. The suffering and hardships he endured in the process are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
This injury was nothing. He had suffered injuries ten times more serious than this. Anyone who had truly fought on the battlefield, as long as he still had breath left, would find ways to take the enemy's life before he closed his eyes.
He ignored the injury on his hand and grabbed Kaishan's feet. Then he exerted force with both hands and directly pulled the tall and strong Kaishan to the ground.
He took the opportunity to snatch the knife from Kaishan's hand and attacked the second in command fiercely.
The second in command was quite capable. He used the long sword in his hand to block and avoided the sword that Tian Mingwu swung at him, but at the same time, because Tian Mingwu swung the sword with too much force, the sword in his own hand was also bounced away.
But he didn't care about his weapons at this time, because his boss Kaishan was being strangled by Tian Mingwu, and his eyes were almost rolling back.
He picked up a piece of wood from the ground and ran towards the two men.
At this time, Tian Mingwu could no longer care about him and could only use all his strength to strangle one of them to death first.
The second in command came behind Tian Mingwu without any obstruction and hit him on the back of the head with a stick.
But Tian Mingwu still held the person under him tightly, without loosening his grip at all.
Seeing that his eldest brother's tongue was sticking out, the second in command became anxious and hit him with a few more clubs until blood started flowing from the back of Tian Mingwu's head and he slowly fell down.
But his hands were still tightly gripping Kaishan's neck, with no sign of relaxation.
The second in command had no choice but to drop the stick in his hand and help pry open Tian Mingwu's fingers one by one before he rescued Kaishan who was about to be strangled to death by him.
Kaishan, who had finally managed to save his life, gasped for breath and pointed at Tian Mingwu lying on the ground in fear, saying, "Dead, dead?"
The second in command was about to squat down and reach out to check Tian Mingwu's breathing, but he heard the sound of the army coming up from behind.
He immediately grabbed Kaishan and started running, "Brother, forget about him, let's run! If we don't run now, it will be too late."
Kaishan glanced at the fast-moving torches not far away, and panicked, "Let's go."
If the army really arrives, they will be finished.
"Quick, over there."
Chen Cheng spotted a figure in front of him and shouted to everyone to give chase.
As a result of their previous inquiries, they learned that the people from the Tiger Village were actually hiding in the back mountain of the Kaishan Village, and were acting according to the movements of the Kaishan Village.
If Kaishan Stronghold is safe, they can rest assured. So after going up the mountain, he was ordered to lead people to clear out Menghu Stronghold and was not with Tian Mingwu.
Fortunately, the people in Menghuzhai were not as cunning as the founder of the mountain stronghold. They were all drunk, and he tied them all up without much effort.
As a result, when he returned to Kaishan Stronghold, he found out that Tian Mingwu had taken people to chase the leader of Kaishan Stronghold and the fish that had escaped the net. He was worried, so after explaining everything, he led people to follow the clues all the way out.
On the way, they met many soldiers they had lost. He gradually became worried and quickened his pace. He hoped that nothing would happen!
Suddenly, he saw some figures moving in front of him, but they were obviously not the figures of their general and soldiers.
Right now, apart from their general and soldiers, there are only bandits left in the mountain. If the bandits stand up, doesn’t that mean that something has happened to the general?
Shen Cheng’s heart almost jumped to his throat.
When Kaishan and Erdangjia saw that the army had discovered them, they moved faster, but this also completely exposed them.
Both of them were injured and could no longer run as fast as when they were chased by Tian Mingwu.
Before long, they were surrounded by soldiers.
Chen Cheng looked at Tian Mingwu lying on the ground covered in blood, his eyes suddenly turned red, and he wished he could tear the two bandits to pieces on the spot.
But sending Tian Mingwu back for treatment was more important at the moment, so he could only suppress his anger and carry Tian Mingwu on his back and run towards the village.
Li Ji, who was not far away, was also taken away by the soldiers who were traveling with him.
......
In the village, Tian Mingwu was placed in the best room in the village chief's house.
His whole body was covered in mud and blood, and he lay there motionless. His head had been bandaged by the military doctor who came with him, but blood was still seeping out.
Qin Wen and Shen Cheng worked together to take off his armor and check the rest of his wounds.
Half an hour later, the military doctor had bandaged all the wounds on his body using the hemostatic medicine given to them by Tian An. The effect was very good. Except for the head, the bleeding had stopped everywhere else. The whole person was also cleaned by Qin Wen and Shen Cheng.
But he was still lying on the bed, without any movement, and his breathing was so weak that it seemed as if he was not breathing at all.
Outside, Chen Cheng grabbed the military doctor by the collar and asked, "General, why haven't you woken up yet? Do you know how to treat him?"
Although the military doctor was afraid of him, he had to tell the truth.
"The general's brain injury was too severe. If it weren't for the helmet protecting him, his entire head would have been smashed.
Although I'm a military doctor, I really can't help in this situation! The best thing to do now is to send the general back to the capital and ask the palace doctors to consult!"
Hearing the noise outside the house, Qin Wen came out of the house and hurriedly rescued the military doctor from Shen Cheng.
He then apologized to the military doctor: "Deputy General Shen is just impatient. He is anxious because the general is in trouble and has lost his sense of proportion. Please don't take it personally."
The military doctor kept saying, "I dare not, I dare not."
After thinking for a moment, he said, "But the general's current situation is critical. You and Deputy General Shen need to make a decision quickly!"
Qin Wen nodded in agreement, and after the military doctor left, he said to Shen Cheng: "I have sent a message to the capital, but we have to wait for a reply from there before returning to the capital. I am afraid it will be too late.
Therefore, I plan to have you lead a team to escort the general back to the capital for treatment. After I have dealt with everything here, I will return with the main force."
Shen Cheng agreed without thinking, and set off that afternoon with a small team of people and a military doctor.
......
In that era, communication was backward, and people in the capital did not receive the news so quickly after it was sent.
But perhaps because of the bond between father and daughter, Tian An's eyelids have been twitching these days.
I always feel like something bad is going to happen. I feel depressed and have no motivation to do anything.
She made frequent mistakes in her work. She would become dazed while practicing calligraphy, and even pricked her finger while embroidering.
Zhao Yiming couldn't bear it anymore, so he sent her to rest.
