Another quarter of an hour later, there were only twenty people left around him.
Looking around, there were corpses lying in pools of blood, including those of officers and soldiers as well as subordinates.
He gasped, feeling his strength drain away.
"Master, be careful!"
The next moment, Lou Sanma's eyes were bloodshot.
An officer's long sword pierced through the concubine's body, but the sword was supposed to hit him.
"Why are you so stupid?" he trembled.
"Master, Xiaohuan can't accompany you anymore."
"Ah!" Lou Sanma roared to the sky.
"It's the boss! It's the boss's voice!"
"Boss! We're here to save you!"
After hearing the noise outside, Lou Sanma looked behind the officers and soldiers in surprise. However, he had just stood up when the other two officers and soldiers took the opportunity to find his flaw and stabbed him in the abdomen with two knives.
"puff--"
The officers and soldiers were exhausted after two hours of fighting. Now seeing more people coming from behind, they were worried about being surrounded and had to retreat in a hurry.
"General!" An Jingzhi rushed over, "General, hold on, I'll find a doctor for you!"
When Lou Sanma saw An Jingzhi, he was surprised and said, "I know, I know my situation."
"You, save, save Xiaohuan, you must, save her."
"Okay!" An Jingzhi pinched himself secretly, his eyes red, "General, don't worry! I will definitely save my wife!"
"How did you get here?" he asked.
The men who stayed behind at Lou Sanma said, "We fought the soldiers all night, and many of our brothers were killed or wounded. It was thanks to Brother An that he used straw to replace people and tricked them into using many bows and arrows."
He recounted how he discovered that the officers and soldiers had left, and how An Jingzhi gathered everyone together to rescue Lou Sanma.
The more Lou Sanma heard this, the more ashamed he felt. He had failed to fully trust Brother An.
When a man is about to die, his words are good.
Lou Sanma said, "I don't think I can survive today. I don't have many men left. Fortunately, there are still many people left for you to defend the city. They will follow you from now on."
"I marked a tree fifty miles outside Cangzhou City, under a tree so big that two people could hug it. There I hid ten thousand taels of silver."
"And Xiaohuan has fifteen thousand taels of silver. Take it all."
"Remember, take good care of Xiaohuan for me! Revenge for me... for me... you..." His eyes suddenly widened and his pupils dilated.
An Jingzhi still had that sad expression on his face, but his hands didn't stop moving. He covered it with his sleeves and quietly turned the blade inside the other person's body.
Lou Sanma died with his eyes open.
Lou Sanma exploited merchants in Jizhou City and allowed his men to harm the people. They hoarded grain and sold it at high prices, killing countless people.
He accepted the men, horses and money. With these, he had the capital to continue investing. While others were fighting in the front, he just sat back and reaped the benefits.
As for revenge? Just wait!
