Chapter 507: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor 118
The bang of a gunshot startled the birds and beasts in Misty Ridge. Waves of strange cries were heard, and the sound of Guo Yi beating a drum rang out.
"Retreat, retreat! The baggage carts also retreat, exit Misty Ridge! Vanguard troops, follow me!"
"Who dares to attack me? You must be tired of living! Be careful and hide, they have muskets! Block them with heavy shields!"
The exile team was already accustomed to such scenes, and they retreated in an orderly manner. The elderly, the weak, women and children were the first to leave the Misty Ridge, and the baggage carts came next. Anyone who was strong helped to push the carts. Even Xiao Fan was exhausted and out of breath.
Xia Sanniang's face turned pale as she helped Pan Ying out of Misty Ridge. Her hands were covered in blood and she was shaking all over.
"You idiot! Who told you to rush forward! Doctor...where is the doctor? Don't die, open your eyes and look at me..."
Soon someone laid a mat on the grass, and Pan Ying lay on it with his eyes closed, his head resting in Xia Sanniang's arms, unconscious.
Huang Daxian ran over and tore open Pan Ying's shirt. His waist was grazed by the musket, and it looked bloody, but it was actually just a superficial wound.
Huang Daxian handled the situation with ease. Before Xia Sanniang had finished crying, he had already bandaged the wound.
"Don't touch water for a few days, and avoid spicy and greasy food. It will be fine after a few days."
Xia Sanniang's face was still covered with tears. She choked and said, "But why hasn't he woken up yet? Can you do it? Let's ask Doctor Lan to take a look."
Lansong and Xiaolanhua stayed in the mountain village temporarily and were not in the exile team.
Huang Daxian rolled his eyes, kicked Pan Ying and cursed, "It's just a small injury, stop pretending to be dead and destroy my reputation!"
Pan Ying finally woke up slowly. He weakly raised his hand, touched Xia Sanniang's pretty face, and sighed: "If I can see you cry for me once, I would be willing to die immediately. Sanniang, if I die, will you remember me?"
Xia Sanniang stood up suddenly, her eyes and face flushed red. She was so angry that she wanted to beat Pan Ying up, but when she saw that he was covered in blood, she didn't know where to start.
"You... you are sick! Is this something you can joke about? If you die, I will find a younger and more heroic guy and I will have fun every day! Without you, will I still be unable to live?"
"Even if I die, it has nothing to do with you. You don't need to save me! How old are you? If you do this kind of trick again, I...I will never talk to you again!"
Pan Ying quickly got up from the ground, feeling a little at a loss.
When the gunshots rang out, he subconsciously stood in front of Sanniang without thinking much about it. Seeing Sanniang so worried, he felt happy and fell into Sanniang's arms.
Pan Ying stammered, but didn't know how to coax Sanniang, so he could only stand there like a piece of wood.
"Brother Pan! We have captured a man alive. He looks like the leader. Lord Guo asked me to bring him out and give him to you for interrogation."
This shout saved Pan Ying's life. Pan Ying quickly responded and pulled the prisoner over.
The prisoner was short and stout, and had been tanned shiny dark from years of drifting on the sea. There seemed to be dirt in the cracks of his fingernails that could never be washed away. When he opened his mouth, he saw a mouthful of yellow teeth, and a foul odor emanated from his mouth.
When the middle-aged man saw the man, he rushed over and started kicking him until he had a black eye and a swollen face. He only stopped when he was too tired to do so.
"It's them! They must be here to explore the way. Kill them... kill them..."
Seeing that the prisoner was still breathing, Pan Ying didn't bother to care about such a trivial matter. After the middle-aged man had beaten him enough, he took out a dagger and gestured at the prisoner's face.
With a swish, blood splattered everywhere and an ear fell to the ground.
The prisoner was in so much pain that he was alert and struggled violently, almost breaking free from the ropes. Pan Ying tightened the ropes, slapped the prisoner's face with a dagger, and said coldly:
"Tell me, who sent you here? And who is supporting you? The broken place of Brun Island can't produce muskets, let alone build large ships. How many of you are here..."
The prisoner was talking in a babble and no one present could understand him.
Pan Ying pointed the dagger at the prisoner's neck and sighed, "It seems he can't speak human language. Let's kill him."
The prisoner trembled, and when he spoke again he spoke in poor Jin dialect, stumbling over it.
“You… you are so insolent! If you know what’s good for you, just let me go… When… the great general comes, you will all die… Go and die… The great general is mighty and majestic, with an army of tens of thousands… to crush… the State of Jin… You ants, all die… die…”
The captives kept repeating the same few words over and over again. There was nothing new to say. All they could confirm was that tens of thousands of people had come to Bru Island and occupied Lianxing Port in one fell swoop.
Perhaps there are pirates from other places rushing in from other ports, and the whole of Lingnan has become a mess.
Pan Ying threw the dagger to the middle-aged man, "Didn't you just shout that you wanted to kill him for revenge? Do you dare to do it?"
The middle-aged man picked up the dagger, his eyes flashed with ferocity, and he nodded vigorously.
He thought of his father who died at the doorstep, his mother who was stabbed to death while protecting her grandson, his wife who was hunted down and raped, and the fire that broke out in the village.
His home is gone, what else is there for him to be afraid of!
He was just a farmer and had never killed anyone before. He didn't know how to use the dagger, which pierced into the softest part of the abdomen. The prisoner howled, but the wound was not fatal.
The middle-aged man stabbed the enemy again and again in a rage, blood and flesh flew everywhere. He didn't know how many times he stabbed. When he stopped, the enemy was already dead, and he was covered in blood, and his arms were numb and without any feeling.
Lin Yuan covered Ji Yunhuan's eyes and said calmly, "He is a man of courage. Take him up the mountain."
"A Tao, notify Teams A, B, C, and D to bring their weapons and shields, line up at Misty Ridge, and be ready to fight the enemy at any time."
Ji Yunhuan could hear a bloody smell in such a calm sentence.
The vanguard team that went out to explore the way did not go back, and gunshots were heard in Misty Ridge. The Bru people would definitely attack.
At noon, Guo Yi, who was guarding the front, sent news.
Thousands of people have entered Misty Ridge, preparing to attack Cangzhou from here. As for how many people will follow, it is unknown.
Misty Ridge is the time when the poison gas is at its weakest, and the enemy must have figured out the situation. Even if the poison gas will cause some damage to the body, this is already the best time to take action.
Ji Yunhuan returned to the mountain village, took inventory of everything in the space, and made long-term plans.
Lin Yuan led the Dragon Team and rushed into Misty Ridge first, acting as the vanguard and fighting with the first enemy that broke in.
"Brothers! Stop them! Cangzhou must not become the second Lingnan!"
