Chapter 725 Cost (continued)
The fog shrouded the site. The Tats did not see the traces of Song Nan and others, but Song Nan and others themselves collided like headless flies, but vaguely remember the direction to the east. At this moment, only the best route is to go to the east and the way of the Tatron soldiers. As for whether there will suddenly appear another The team of the tazi soldiers, there is no way to know.
When she couldn't make a cup of tea, suddenly, Aunt Ye Fang, who was exploring the way in front of her, shouted, and her blurred back stopped in front of her. Song Nan quickly asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"
Ye Fanggu turned around and said in a low voice, "My husband, there is no way here."
Everyone helped each other forward. Although the visibility was extremely poor, they could still see a cliff in front of them, and the depth of the black hole was bottomless. Although the mountain is not high, it is about 200 meters in terms of altitude. Even if there is a drop of more than ten meters on the cliff at the top of the mountain, it is enough to block the way.
Song Nan understands that such a terrain is the result of a special choice by thetars. The eagle cannon is set up against the cliff, and there is only one road ahead that leads to the top of the mountain, and it is guarded by thousands of soldiers and horses. If thetars really think so, I'm afraid that the cliff will never be easy to climb over.
Song Nan's worry was verified. After dropping several large stones, she knew that the cliff was unfathomable after listening to the sound of the stones rolling down and smashing. Ye Fanggu looked back and forth for more than 100 steps and found that the cliff stretched to the north and south, and she didn't know where it was the end. At this moment, there is no time to go north and south and bypass this cliff. Because the Taritar soldiers and horses know that the Ming army is alive, they have been slowly searching in fan shape, and after a while, they can net everyone into it like a net.
Wang Yong hung on Song Nan's shoulder, his broken legs and feet were not strong at all, and many wounds on his body were too late to bandage and shed blood. He gasped and said, "Your Excellency... You and the slightly injured brothers, go first. You can walk one by one. Although this cliff is high, it is still no problem to climb down. Take us with us. The seriously injured person can't escape anyway.
"Yes, my lord, you go first. We still have a firearm in our hands. We will kill hundreds of Tatari soldiers. After that, we will jump off the cliff and die. Your Excellency will escape and defeat the Tatron. Remember to come and wait for me to be buried. I also entrusted my family to take care of..." The guards also said one after another. Although they did not want to die here, they knew that all this was inevitable.
Song Nan gritted her teeth and scolded, "What are you saying? How can I leave you? Wang Yong, if you say such a thing again, the relationship between us will be cut off. Who do you think I am?"
Wang Yong knelt down and shouted, "Your Excellency, this is not the time to be emotional. I will die. You can't die, let alone be captured by the Tsar. This is also for the overall situation. After dawn, a fierce battle is about to begin. This may be the last battle of the whole war. Please don't be influenced by your personal feelings.
"Yes, my lord, please take your brothers and go quickly." A group of unmoving guards lay on the ground and begged.
Song Nan scolded angrily, "Just shut up and let me think of a way quietly."
Wang Yong said, "Your Excellency, don't think about it. The situation is like this. I will accept my fate..."
Song Nan ignored him and looked down the cliff. The smoke and dust dissipated a lot. Although he could not see the situation below in the faint light of the morning, he could faintly see the trees growing on the cliff.
Song Nan immediately ordered, "Take off all the belts."
In consteration, Song Nan had first untied the belt around his waist, and then cut off the belts of the guards who could not move on the ground with knives. Several guards hurried up to help. After a while, 18 belts fell into Song Nan's hands. Song Nan quickly connected all the belts together into eight. The nine-foot-long rope said, "There are trees halfway up the mountain, indicating that there is soil siltation to make the trees take root. But wherever the soil accumulates, there must be a mountain beam, which can't be seen clearly. I want to go down in person. As long as I shake the rope three times, you will pull up the rope and hang the injured brothers one by one.
Everyone nodded nervously, and Song Nan said to Aunt Ye Fang, "You are the last to go down, you have to untie the rope to prevent the Tats from finding our traces, so you can only climb down by yourself and remember to tie one end of the rope to your waist in case you fall down..."
Aunt Ye Fang interrupted him and said, "How can I fall down? I'd better tell your brothers."
Everyone immediately acted and carefully took Song Nan down the cliff. When the rope was about to reach the end, it finally lost its tension, indicating that Song Nan had a place to settle down. Listening to the voices of the surrounding salams getting closer and closer, everyone was so anxious that they all lay on the ground and dared not move.
Suddenly, the rope shook violently three times, and the guards were overjoyed. Several guards pulled up the rope and dragged an injured guard and tied the rope. Wang Yong whispered, "Two together, otherwise it will be too late."
So the other person was also tied up and slowly put down the cliff like two grasshoppers. Soon after, the rope loosened and shook again. He pulled up the rope and hung two more. After several times, more than a dozen guards had been suspended from the cliff.
However, the dawn was particularly fast. In the morning wind, the smoke on the battlefield was quickly blown away. When Ye Fanggu and a powerful personal guard labored to send the last two personal guards down the cliff, there were already figures of Tarot soldiers around them. Dozens of steps away, dozens of Tarot soldiers were surrounding them. Someone saw Ye Fanggu. He shouted loudly with the figure of the guard, "What are you doing? Speak."
Ye Fanggu made a decision, picked up her toes, and kicked the rope under the cliff. She didn't let the Tatron know the secret under the cliff. She whispered to the guard, "The two of us can't get out. Let's each have our destiny. We can't let the Tatron know that there is someone under the cliff."
The guard nodded and said, "Don't worry, the villain knows."
Ye Fanggu smiled and said, "I know that there are no bastards brought out by your adults. What's your name?"
"The villain's name is Wang Dachun, which is the general flag of the adult's guard camp."
"Very good, Brother Wang, I'm going to kill the Tah. Will you come?"
"Of course." Wang Dachun reached out and held the firearms around his waist in his hand, took a few steps forward, and the firearms in his hand bombarded against the surrounding Tahrers. At the same time, Ye Fanggu flew out of the flanks, and the dagger in her hand emitted a dazzling cold light in the morning and rushed into the crowd.
......
On a beam halfway up the cliff, the roots of several large pine trees are indeed a mountain beam. Song Nan and more than a dozen guards are squeezed in the depression at the root of the trunk of the big tree, and they can't see the situation at all. But when the rope above suddenly fell, Song Nan was shocked. It was supposed to pull up the rope and put another person down. When the rope fell, there was no way to hand it to the top of the cliff. Song Nan looked up anxiously, and the sudden roar of the fire made him and everyone under the cliff understand that the Tartar soldiers had arrived.
The fire gun sounded four times, and the sound of the angry screams filled the ear drums. After the four sounds, it was time for the ammunition of the equipped with the two-cylinder Mrs. Song fire gun to be replaced. This was the time when the fire gun was the most vulnerable. After a while, I didn't hear the sound of the fire gun bomb again, which indicates that there was no chance to put on ammunition. .
After a while, a long roar came, and something fell on the top of the cliff. Song Nan quickly shrank to avoid it, but saw something falling on the crown of the big tree and being firmly hugged by the crown of the big tree. Song Nan didn't dare to check at all. He knew that it was a person who fell, but he was afraid that it was Ye Fanggu. He was afraid that he would see Ye Fanggu's flesh and blood when he opened the branches and leaves, so he stood in a daze and didn't do anything.
The fighting on the cliff gradually subsided, and the words of the Sartan soldiers on the top of the cliff were clearly heard. Several boulders rolled down the cliff from the top of the cliff and smashed them into stones above the beam of the hiding place. They fell on the canopy of the pine tree and hit the body in the canopy, just like hitting Song Nan's heart, which was painful. Heart.
Song Nan suppressed the grief in her heart and ordered everyone to silence. Even if she was hit on the head by a stone and hit on her broken hands and feet, she could not make any sound. It was a stone deliberately dropped by the Tatan and wanted to be tested.
Soon after, the sound at the top of the cliff disappeared, and the soldiers had retreated. Song Nan stood on the rock wall and looked at the body faintly visible in the canopy, but did not go forward to check. Wang Yong's eyes motioned to a personal guard to come forward to check. The personal guard slowly climbed up the horizontal canopy along the trunk, opened the thick branches of pine needles, and slowly dragged out a person.
The man lay down on the canopy, with more than a dozen arrows inserted in his body, covered with blood. He had been killed for a long time. The guard slowly turned him over and whispered, "Your Excellency, it's the general flag of Wang Dachun."
The dead guard was Wang Dachun, who shot eight with four angry shots. After the nine tars, the tarmen quickly surrounded him. Someone began to shoot arrows in the rear. The dense rain of arrows shot him into a hedgehog and fell from the cliff. He didn't want to be caught by the pine tree.
Song Nan's mood is not much better. It is Wang Dachun who died, which does not mean that Ye Fanggu is not lucky. In such circumstances, there will be more and more Tarot soldiers. It is unlikely that Ye Fanggu wants to escape, either die on the top of the cliff or be captured alive by the Tarot soldiers. Compared with the first possibility, the second possibility is more horrible. If Aunt Ye Fang is caught alive, she will suffer inhuman humiliation if she doesn't know her identity. If she knows her identity, she may not be unreasonable to her, but if she coerces herself, how should she choose?
No matter what the possibility is, Song Nan is difficult to accept. For a while, her heart was confused and her mood was boiling.
