Lady forced to seek prince

Chapter 663 Laugh

Kou Wei didn't know why Qin Gao could say this, but he had no time to ask. He stared closely at the firelight and saw the cavalry rushing into the army formation.

Absolutely.

Covey almost shouted.

A gap really opened up, so quickly...

Kou Wei could imagine the mood of the Grand Master at this moment, and he couldn't help but feel sad for the Grand Master. Originally, the Grand Master also had the world in his heart, but he made a wrong step and failed to pass the level of greed.

……

The moment the firearm exploded, the Grand Master was stunned for a moment, trying to figure out what happened. He was sure the firearm was not the kind they carried.

Because firearms are really too powerful.

The billowing smoke was mixed with the smell of saltpeter and gunpowder, and the rising flames submerged the general formation. Burnt soldiers could be seen running away everywhere.

"There is tung oil."

The Grand Master murmured something.

The firearm must have been mixed with tung oil.

Therefore, it can only be the weapon of the Wuwei Army.

"Quickly, take the grand master and leave. We were sneak attacked by the armed guards with firearms. The military formation can no longer hold on."

The grand master looked at the military formation that he had practiced for a long time, and it was unexpectedly broken by the Wuwei army when the two of them met.

There are spies. These words came to the mind of the Grand Master.

If someone hadn't tipped off the information, how would Xiao Yu know about their movements?

The grand master quickly denied himself. He made the decision on the spur of the moment. Even if he had Xiao Yu's spies around him, he would not be able to spread the news so quickly.

Xiao Yu was too late to respond.

In fact, there was not much time between Xiao Yu's second attack.

Then there was only one answer left, and Xiao Yu guessed how he would respond.

A kind of powerlessness and fear enveloped the grand master. Is he really inferior to Xiao Yu? Did Xiao Yu also guess that he would take advantage of the chaos to escape?

"Master, let's go quickly!"

"Master."

The Grand Master didn't want to be counted out by Xiao Yu again, but now he seemed to have no choice.

"Grand Master, as long as you are here, we will still be able to fight after we escape. But if you make any mistake, we will have no hope!"

"King Yu is here."

When the grand master hesitated, he heard the panicked shouts of soldiers coming from the direction of the military formation.

"King Yu rushed in."

The grand master turned the horse's head and immediately ran backwards.

Xiao Yu expected that the grand master would escape, but he was not in a hurry. The grand master without troops could not get out. The grand master who was defeated so quickly would also lose his prestige.

This is why the Grand Master has been cautiously hiding behind the Prime Minister. He needs time to train his troops and an opportunity to win the battle. Those who followed the Grand Master were originally just following the Grand Master's reputation. In their minds, the Grand Master was omnipotent, so at the beginning, the soldiers in the military formation were not afraid of death, thinking that they could defeat the armed guards.

Now everything is shattered, and the Grand Master is no different than dead.

Xiao Yu waved the long sword in his hand. The soldiers in front of him were either chopped to the ground or screamed and ran away. They were almost crushed, completely smashing the general formation. The resistance and attack of the Grand Master's soldiers and horses collapsed directly. Some people began to kneel down and pray for surrender. It's not their fault. King Yu and the Military Commission of the Armed Forces were so powerful that they couldn't defend themselves. The skills they had developed in their minds could not be used at this moment.

The Wuwei Army was different. These people faced the battle with ease and did not take them seriously at all. A strong general was followed by a group of robes. After several attacks, few people dared to fight them.

If they can give it a try, everyone will have the courage to risk their lives, but if there is a huge disparity, even that courage will be lost, especially when fighting hard, they find that there are more and more armed guards, but the rear army that is supposed to support them is not. There has been no trace for a long time, who is still willing to fight for it?

The Grand Master is not as good as King Yu.

When most of the soldiers had this result in their minds, the war was over.

……

The grand master ran away for a while and couldn't help but look back. No pursuers were following him, but the remaining soldiers and horses could not follow either. In other words, they might all be killed by Xiao Yu's hands.

There were five thousand people when he came out, but within a few hours, there were less than a thousand people around him.

"Grand Master, shall we go to the northeast? Although we have to take a detour, as long as we escape, we can meet up with the Prime Minister's troops."

A deputy general said beside the grand master.

Their elite soldiers were gone, but the Prime Minister still had tens of thousands of troops in his hands.

The worst possible outcome is to train the troops again and look for opportunities to take action in the future.

The Grand Master shook his head: "Prince Xiang may have died in Xiao Yu's hands."

He personally witnessed how powerful Xiao Yu was, even the soldiers and horses under his command were so unbearable, not to mention the people brought by the Prime Minister, they were like a pile of loose sand.

It was really possible that Xiao Yu could kill the Prime Minister without saying a word.

He was plotted by Xiao Yu. He thought it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but who knew it was Xiao Yu's trap.

You can't go to the northeast, so you can only go west or south.

The grand master decisively asked people to find a way to the west. If they could reach the southwest, they might be able to escape.

"If I can escape this time, I will definitely kill Kou Wei."

The generals around him vented their emotions angrily, but there was a chill in the heart of the Grand Master. Kou Wei was not obeying Xiao Yu's orders. At this time, even if he was cruel, he would not dare to confront Xiao Yu. This shows how much Xiao Yu has in their hearts. horrible.

When they meet Xiao Yu again, will they still have the courage to fight?

The Grand Master had no way to think about it, so he could only urge the horse on his crotch as hard as he could.

Another advantage of fear is that it makes people run for their lives with all their strength. When they leave, they are obviously faster than when they came. Maybe this decisive escape can really save his life.

He couldn't die here, cowardly in this place, losing his own head, and from now on, he would always be marked with the mark of "rebellion", and he would never be able to stand up again.

Only by holding the imperial power can he rewrite everything, but for some reason, Kou Wei's words kept ringing in the Grand Master's ears.

He seemed to remember how he looked when he was high-spirited. With this, he walked step by step before the late emperor, compiled memorials for the late emperor, and became a loyal minister beside the late emperor. He also thought that he had the power and could do something. .

The minister of Dali Temple was wrongly accused and imprisoned. He ran around to defend him and even made a generous speech in front of the emperor, but in the end he was punished with a stick and imprisoned. In the prison, he saw insects and rats tearing at prisoners' flesh, saw once high-spirited officials being tortured beyond recognition, and saw those people abandoning their dignity in order to survive, and he also asked himself whether it was worth it.

The grand master touched his leg. There was a deep scar there, which was made by a jailer. He had studied hard for many years and once stood in such a high position, but he was humiliated by such a vulgar person and became that person's entertainment.

He swore then that if he survived, he would never let something like this happen again.

Later, when he was released from prison, it was not that his injustice was overturned, nor that his sincerity moved the emperor.

The reason was ridiculous, but the emperor suddenly wanted to play a game of chess with him, so he asked.

When he walked out of the prison that day, the sun fell on his face. It was so warm and beautiful. It seemed that he felt the beauty of being alive for the first time.

Imperial power does not distinguish between right and wrong. The emperor never cares about his ministers. All they care about is their own likes and dislikes. Who says that ministers must be loyal to the emperor and love the people? Who said you have to sell your martial arts skills to the emperor's family?

pedantic.

From now on, he will live for himself.

Thinking of this, a red sun rose in the eastern sky, and a ray of sunlight fell on his face just like that day. The grand master suddenly smiled.
