Legend of the Heroes of the Southern Kingdom

Chapter 440 Giant Shield Attacks the Mountain
Hearing that Suda Awang came back with news so soon, both Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu restrained their emotions immediately, for fear that he would see their flaws. Showing a haughty attitude, Li Wenxuan saw that there was no opening for a while, and then shouted loudly: "Come up!"

When Suda Awang came up for the first time, although he was a little scared in his heart, he still put on a high-ranking attitude on his face, but this time, even though he was a little limping, he was holding a smile on his face. His old face is much better than when he first appeared. I don’t know if it’s because he’s afraid of Li Wenxuan’s knife again, or because "Princess Yilan" is relieved and feels that his important task is in sight.

He gave a respectful salute to Princess Yilan, like the stern-faced Li Wenxuan hugging his fists. He saw Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu's ambiguous expressions before, and knew that the two were on the same side. Everyone is happy, especially Li Wenxuan. As long as Li Wenxuan nods, this "Princess Yilan" will not obey, and there is no other way, but what Suda Awang is facing is two cold faces , everyone gave him good looks, he was also a little embarrassed, he smiled wryly twice, and then slowly said: "His Royal Highness, and this brave general, we can agree to your request to send a letter to Shangjing , It's just... because it takes too long to bring the guards of Her Royal Highness back to this place. Our army has been stationed here for a long time. Ahem, it has been a long time and there have been many changes. Our army is a little worried Let’s make a compromise. It’s better for the princess to follow me down the mountain. We will personally escort the princess to meet the messenger. When the princess finishes her work, I will return to Yinchuan with me. Don’t worry, princess, we can use Helan God In the name of guaranteeing the safety of you and the general."

At present, Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu are temporarily preserved on the mountain, relying on the natural danger of the terrain on the mountain. If they change places, the two will lose their BMW horse, and Mingzhu is injured. Xixia soldiers want It would not be difficult to capture the two of them alive. Su Da Awang was good, he spoke kindly, but his request was to ask Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu to give up this natural barrier and follow him down the mountain. How could the two of them agree, Li Wenxuan Immediately, his face turned dark, and there was an urge to take the Xixia special envoy down the mountain. Mingzhu snorted softly, not wanting to talk to him at all, and was about to turn around and leave. Suda Awang kept looking at Mingzhu's face, and he also Knowing that this request was a bit harsh, and originally did not expect Mingzhu to agree, the reactions of Li Wenxuan and Mingzhu were not surprising. These words were just a foreshadowing for him, and he immediately said: "Wait a minute, princess, I have another way here, that is, Reassuring the princess will not waste time, it can be said to be the best of both worlds, I wonder if the princess can think about it?"

Mingzhu said lightly: "If you Xixia are not sincere and intend to deceive and murder a weak woman like me, then there is no need to talk about it. Please ask the special envoy to go back now. When you attack the mountain, I will follow suit!"

Su Da Awang coughed and coughed twice, and hurriedly said: "Princess misunderstood, misunderstood, we really have no intention of using force. I, Xixia, invited Princess Yilan to be a guest. The sincerity of the sun and the moon is clear, and it did not hurt the princess's heart, although there are some methods... But this is also because of the country's major plan, please rest assured, the princess, the latter method will definitely not embarrass the princess, that is, the princess will hand over the letterhead to be sent to the tribe or post station designated by the princess, and please give it to the princess again I have a token, I will show the token to the person entrusted by the princess, and after the letter is sent away, I will bring the reliable person who conveyed the letter to the princess, then the princess will naturally know that I have not deceived you, I don’t know In this way, can the princess rest assured?"

Mingzhu's face was as deep as water, and she couldn't see any joy or anger, but she was also thinking about it. She asked to send a letter before, one was to test whether there was news about the princess, and the other was to delay time. When the fight started, there was almost no combat power, and everything had to be resisted by Li Wenxuan alone. If it could be delayed for one more day, the injury would be better, and the chances of the two of them getting out in the future would be higher. Since the Xixia people sent this Opportunity, Mingzhu naturally didn't want to tear herself apart with them too early, and didn't dare to push them too hard, for fear of self-defeating, so she made a very embarrassed look, wandering around, shaking her head and sighing, watching Su Da Awang was also thumping in his heart, and Li Wenxuan was secretly amused. Unexpectedly, Mingzhu was really good at acting, and almost deceived himself. After a full cup of tea, Mingzhu finally sighed. With a sound, he made a look of helplessness and tears, and said: "Forget it, forget it, until now, I am no different from the prisoner again, and there is no other way, so I will do as you said. I hope that the emperor can think of me suffering here... woo woo..." As he spoke, he wiped the corners of his eyes lightly, not knowing if there were any tears.

Suda Ngawang's heart was full of joy, Yu Gong saved the lives of many Xixia soldiers by saving a fight, and privately speaking, he also made a great contribution, and the reward after returning will naturally be indispensable to him , but seeing the grief-stricken look of the princess, he naturally didn't dare to smile on his face, for fear of offending the two, he also put on a distressed expression, and offered the pen, ink and sheepskin that he had prepared a long time ago , Mingzhu pondered for a while, wrote two letters on the sheepskin, sealed them with wax and handed them to Suda Awang, and said angrily: "If I find out that you have stolen my letters in the future, I will make you worse off." Die!" Suda Ngawang Awang naturally nodded again and again, seeing the princess's tired face, he did not stay in this dangerous place for a long time, and after he made a plea, he retreated down the mountain and went to a place where there was no one. Unwrapping the sealant sealed by Mingzhu, seeing that there was nothing wrong with complaining, missing and asking for help, he burst out laughing and went back to his life happily.

Su Da Awang only cared about his own happiness, but he didn't know that Li Wenxuan was following him secretly. Li Wenxuan came and went like the wind, without any anger in his actions. How could Su Da Awang know?Li Wenxuan saw all his actions, and told Mingzhu everything when he went back, which made Mingzhu feel complacent, and Li Wenxuan couldn't help asking: "The special envoy was deceived by you so badly, what exactly did you write?"

Mingzhu smiled and said: "What else can I write? Naturally, it means that I am trapped in the enemy's camp, and the Xixia soldiers are cruel and unkind. I ask my "brother emperor" to give them more gold and silver treasures, and I still have..." Looked ambiguously He glanced at Li Wenxuan: "There is also my Li Lang to redeem."

Li Wenxuan smiled and said: "The special envoy may be confused when he sees the relationship between you and me. It's just that this will damage the reputation of the princess." As he spoke, Li Wenxuan looked a little embarrassed.

Mingzhu didn't care, she waved her hand and said: "What are you afraid of, they don't know whether they will send this letter or not, even if it is sent to Shangjing, I will sign the letter with the princess' nickname, which is only known by a few people in the palace. But the princess letter is the most official document, and the nicknamed princess has not been used for nearly ten years. Xixia people will not see the clues, but those who understand the inside story can guess that I wrote it. What about the other letter... I just signed the name of a princess, but the tribe I want the special envoy to send to is the most hostile place with my Dajin in recent years, and I don't know if the special envoy can invite it People from other tribes were moved, or their heads were chopped off directly."

Li Wenxuan listened to Mingzhu's bad news, and all the depression in his heart before was diluted a lot. After all, now that Mingzhu and Mingzhu are alone in a dangerous situation, they don't know if they can leave this mountain alive, so they don't think so much. He laughed loudly and said, "You, you didn't move a knife or a gun, but I'm afraid this special envoy will suffer in the future."

Mingzhu said bitterly: "They treat you and me like this, so I should let them suffer, otherwise I will be very angry, but..." Mingzhu said with a look of worry on her face, "I'm afraid this method is at most impossible. I can give you and me a delay of two to three days, when they find out that there is a fraud, they will spare no effort to attack the mountain, and then you and I can only fight with them to the end!"

Li Wenxuan looked down the mountain, and said very seriously: "Don't worry, I caused you to be injured once because of me, and there will never be a second time!"

Hearing Li Wenxuan's extremely firm tone, Mingzhu seemed to have forgotten the heavy encirclement at the foot of the mountain, snuggled up to him, and said softly, "With you by my side, I am not afraid of anything."

Su Da Awang took Mingzhu's letter and went down the mountain. The mountain was really quiet for a day. Mingzhu was in a good mood for a while. Qiqibaba, who needs to be well nourished for a few days, can recover. Mingzhu loves cleanliness very much by nature, and she wants to take a good bath in the hot spring below, but she is stopped by the extremely serious Li Wenxuan. For such a big place, Mingzhu wanted to use her petty temper to protest, but Li Wenxuan was not afraid of her, which made her very helpless.

Only half a day had passed without incident up and down the mountain, when the sound of war drums suddenly rang loudly. The two people who were sitting cross-legged and adjusting their breath were startled. Looking down the mountain, they saw a dense formation of Xixia soldiers who were about to go up the mountain. Going forward, Li Wenxuan looked at the situation below. This time the Xixia soldiers seemed to be going all out. They sent more soldiers than the previous few times combined. He was really nervous and said: "What's going on, aren't you Did it take two or three days? How could it be so fast?"

Mingzhu sighed: "I calculate that they will not respond until tomorrow. I'm afraid... I'm afraid there may be other clues. As for why, I don't know." Looking up at Li Wenxuan, she said: " Li Lang, we will live and die together!" After finishing speaking, he raised the golden knife and stood beside Li Wenxuan.

Li Wenxuan wanted to persuade Mingzhu to go back, but seeing her awe-inspiring and determined look, he was greatly moved, so he said: "Okay, but you have to promise me that you will stay behind me, and you must not rush down to meet me." They fight close to each other, and if something strange happens, go back to our little house first, okay?"

Mingzhu nodded, standing beside Li Wenxuan, looking from the bottom of the mountain, the two stood side by side on the top of the mountain, although their faces were slightly tired, but seeing Mingzhu's black hair flying and the golden knife in her hand, although they were A woman who has no fear in the face of thousands of troops is enough to make several men feel ashamed. Looking at Li Wenxuan at the side, after several fights, her armor has long been dyed with Yin Hong, and her eyes are full of anger. Contemptuous of the thousands of people under his feet, his slightly tilted body intentionally or unintentionally protects the woman next to him behind him, but this touch of heroism also adds a bit of tenderness.

The Xixia soldiers at the foot of the mountain saw the two people in front of them, and remembered that hundreds of brothers on their side had died at the hands of the man above them. They were filled with hatred and fear, and were also overwhelmed by the momentum of the two men. All kinds of feelings melted away. There were bursts of shouting and killing, and the steps of charging.

Li Wenxuan saw that the Xixia soldiers had entered a distance of twenty feet, and he stretched out his palms together, and two huge stones the size of a millstone roared down, and the few Xixia soldiers who rushed in the front were immediately smashed to pieces.The offensive of the Xixia soldiers slowed down a bit, and the soldiers behind sent many giant shields more than one foot thick. It turned out that the generals of the Xixia soldiers had seen this special stone two days ago, and they had already made some preparations this time. These giant shields stood side by side to form a wall, and slowly pushed forward. Li Wenxuan kicked down a few more boulders, and these boulders hit those shields. There are dozens of Xixia soldiers pushing hard behind, so every time the shield only takes a few steps back, some infantry will come up to remove the boulder, and the Xixia soldiers behind will continue to move forward with the shield.

Unexpectedly, the Xixia people used this method to block the boulder thrown by Li Wenxuan, and Li Wenxuan's fighting power to defend the mountain was greatly reduced, while the Xixia soldiers were getting closer and closer, and within a blink of an eye they advanced again within fifteen feet.

Li Wenxuan held the Qingshuang sword tightly, and was hesitating whether to rush down to destroy a few shields, but saw that the shields on the hillside had all stopped in place. Mingzhu had experienced far more battles than Li Wenxuan, and immediately shouted: "No Well, they're going to shoot arrows!"

As soon as Mingzhu finished speaking, she saw a dense rain of arrows coming from behind the shield, slanting towards the top of the mountain.

"Let's go!" Li Wenxuan was worried that Mingzhu might make a mistake, and didn't want to take risks easily. He immediately dragged Mingzhu's arm and jumped back. Some of the arrows are straight forward, and some are at a high angle, and the feathered arrows are falling from the sky, it is really difficult to find a place to dodge.

Mingzhu saw all this in her eyes, saw Li Wenxuan looking at herself everywhere, and said loudly: "Li Lang, don't worry about me, I still have the means to keep it safe for a while!" Then she pushed Li Wenxuan away, borrowing the mountain rock Dodge, while dialing Feather Arrow.

Li Wenxuan also knew that dodging blindly was not the answer, and said: "Be careful, I'll come as soon as I go!" With a long howl, he rushed towards the hillside against the rain of arrows, and when Li Wenxuan just emerged on the hillside, he was confronted by a wolf The toothed arrow was less than ten feet away from the front door. Li Wenxuan slammed his back to hide, and the strong wind was in front of him. He felt that the wolf-toothed arrow passed against his skin, and even the hair on his forehead was wiped off a few times. Gen, even if Li Wenxuan was bold, he was also in a cold sweat, and he could see that the Xixia people had killed them this time, not like they intended to capture them alive before.

With a shake of the long sword, the three arrows that were shot in the air were broken, and then Li Wenxuan used all his skills and rushed forward a few feet at a step. Originally, he was unwilling to confront Xixia soldiers in close quarters, but under the current situation, he had to do it.

Seeing that there were still a few feet away from the Xixia soldiers' shield formation, and it was approaching in a blink of an eye, unexpectedly, several rows of Xixia soldiers full of hard bows suddenly appeared from the top of the shield. Dozens of feathered arrows stared at him, Li Wenxuan gasped. Breathe a sigh of relief, Li Wenxuan would not be afraid of him if this situation was on the plain battlefield, but now the mountain road is narrow, and the distance between the left and right is so large. Before Li Wenxuan guarded the mountain, it was very difficult for Xixia soldiers to attack the mountain, but now they have lost a One, the Xixia soldiers stood firm on the mountain road, and the passive person became Li Wenxuan instead.

A burst of swishing sounds joined together, Li Wenxuan threw his heart forward, and before he swung his sword to make a call, his whole body directly hit a giant shield in front of him. A fishy hot air went straight to the throat, Li Wenxuan forced a breath to suppress the fishy sweetness.At the same time, under the impact of Li Wenxuan, the shield also swayed slightly, and moved back more than an inch. It was the moment when this gap appeared. He stopped, didn't dare to hesitate at once, pierced the ribs of two Xixia soldiers with a sword pierced through the gap, both of them screamed in unison, and fell to the ground with only the breath left and no breath left.

Li Wenxuan succeeded with a single sword strike, but at the same time the shield array returned to its previous shape, and the left and right sides were tightly fitted together again. He stretched his bow and set an arrow, aiming at Li Wenxuan.

"Get down!" Li Wenxuan yelled loudly, jumped straight up, and split a mace arrow that was shot in the face. Without stopping, he turned to the side directly, and the Xixia soldier was immediately killed. His head was in a different place, and he fell backwards. Another Xixia soldier beside him was less than five feet away from Li Wenxuan. Seeing a great opportunity in front of him, he shot his sword straight to Li Wenxuan's chest.

Li Wenxuan swung his long sword before it was too late to take it back. Now that he is being attacked from left and right, he can only fight with all his strength. With his left hand, he took advantage of the situation and grabbed the spike arrow. Almost at the same time that the arrow touched Li Wenxuan's palm, Li Wenxuan shook his hand. , grasping the arrow firmly in the palm of his hand, blood was already overflowing between his fingers, and he did not know how many times he was stabbed by the arrow.

"Go back!" With a loud shout, he threw the spiked arrow back. It first pierced the bow frame, and then the shoulder sank into the Xixia soldier's throat. Blood spurted out. When the Xixia soldier was about to die, he was still His eyes widened, he really didn't expect that someone could reach out and grab the arrow at such a close distance, and even return it to him intact.

Li Wenxuan killed two people in a row, but the archers on both sides also turned their arrows to shoot at him. These dozens of feathered arrows were fired within a distance of several feet. The power was unimaginable. Clinging to the top of the shield with his hands, he jumped up and jumped behind the shield.

But just as Li Wenxuan passed the top of the shield, he turned sideways and looked down, shocked in his heart, secretly said: "Oops!"
