Chapter 319: Why did you meet once?
The Ming army came to the west, and the former Queen of Annan, Chen, climbed the door stairs and stood there watching the situation outside.
Chen was wearing an ordinary purple silk robe, which was quite similar to the Central Plains Hanfu style. Her waist was tied high, making her figure look taller and longer. The soft silk material showed her concave and convex figure out very beautifully.
As the sunset sets, the afterglow of the setting sun is still dazzling, facing Chen's face, making the big eyes in her deeper eye sockets unable to be fully opened. Her forehead is flat and smooth, her face is dignified and beautiful, her black temples and her white skin seem to be shrouded in the orange light.
Chen said nothing, was very silent, but his eyes were attracted by the scene outside the wall. Under the banner of "Han", the cavalry of the King of the Ming Dynasty, wearing tiger skins, galloping on the flat fields like a group of beasts, with horse hooves roaring, and magnificent momentum.
She quickly identified who the Han king Zhu Gaoxu was. Chen had been in the palace for many years. She understood what a king was like in the crowd and how the people around him would follow him.
The King of Han was riding a tall and colorful horse. He seemed very angry because he rushed the fastest.
Without hesitation, the King of Han rushed towards the cavalry of the Hu family of Annan Army. In the blink of an eye, the guards beside the King of Han had no time to catch up with him, he suddenly shot down the Annan people from both cavalry and rushed straight from the middle of five or six cavalry.
Seeing the King of Han's skills, Chen's eyes lit up. Her eyes turned slightly, and as he rushed left and right, she did not blink. Chen could not see clearly how the King of Han killed the enemy, but could clearly see that no one could stop the King of Han. The cavalry approaching Annan Army would be killed and dropped off the horse in one move!
The war horse in tiger skin seemed to have turned into a real tiger, with a larger body than the cavalry of the Annan Army. It rushed into the crowds of people and horses. The "tiger" seemed to be slaughtering a flock of sheep, rushing around and invincible!
After a while, many Annan cavalry turned around and started running. Wherever the Han King went, the enemy soldiers scattered in all directions, and the Hu family's men could not resist the Ming army's attack at all.
Chen subconsciously pursed his red lips and raised his head slightly.
At this moment, a sound of armor behind him was heard. Chen turned around and saw Li Li walking onto the ladder by pressing his sword. Li Li walked up to the door stairs, looked at the direction Chen had been staring at, and politely said, "Queen, we are leaving here, please follow the ministers."
Chen said calmly in Annan's words: "I am the descendant of Annan and cannot leave the people of the Eastern Capital. Please ask General Li to leave first. I will stay and persuade the Ming army to treat my Annan people well."
Leli frowned, "The loyalty of the ministers is to be seen, please let the queen move!"
At this time, a soldier downstairs ran up and said in a deep voice: "General, go quickly! The Ming army wants to encircle the manor from the left and right wings. If he doesn't leave immediately, it will probably be too late!"
Li Li was a young man in his early twenties, but he was very calm. He raised his hand to stop the soldiers who came to report and continued to persuade: "The Ming people are jackals, and the King of Han and the Queen have never known each other; but the ministers saved the queen in danger and offended the powerful prime minister Hu Yuancheng for the sake of the queen! Who can trust? Don't the Queen know?"
After hearing this, Chen paused and said, "General Li's kindness will be rewarded after I give it back."
"Please move!" Leli walked forward with a blue face.
Chen's face changed suddenly.
At this moment, Chen Xingwang stood in front of Chen, spread his arms to protect Chen, and said, "The Queen has said..."
Before Chen Xingwang could speak, a sword light flashed suddenly, "Clang!" A sudden sound, Li Li drew his sword out of the sheath, and swept straight towards Chen Xingwang's abdomen. With a scream of "ah", Chen Xingwang pressed his abdomen with both hands and fell backwards.
The air seemed to solidify in an instant, and there were still many people standing up and down the gatehouse, all of them motionless.
Chen's face turned as white as paper. She did not lower her head, and looked down at the sword dripping from Lili's hand. One of her feet in her long skirt had already gently lifted up, subconsciously trying to retreat; but the foot finally stepped back to the spot, and she was still standing there, facing Lili's eyes.
Lili looked at her for a moment, then turned around and looked back. There were many people watching here up and down the gatehouse. His face turned red, and suddenly he sent the sword back to the scabbard with a "clang" sound, and said, "Go!"
After Leley said that, he ran down the stairs in panic, hurriedly climbed up a horse, whipped the horse "splash" and ran straight east.
Chen immediately squatted down in front of Chen Xingwang, watching a large amount of blood appear between Chen Xingwang's fingers, she stretched out her jade hand, looking at a loss, but she never pressed Chen Xingwang's blood-stained wound.
"Chen Xingwang!" Chen shouted in Chinese language.
Chen Xingwang opened his eyes with difficulty, looked at Chen, and showed a smile.
"King... Queen, that night...sing, singing..." Chen Xingwang said half a sentence with a breath of energy, his face getting paler.
"Doctor!" Chen stood up and shouted in Annan's words.
But no one paid attention to her. Everyone on the gatehouse was looking at the scene outside, and people were in panic.
Chen Xingwang said: "I can't live..."
Chen had to squat down again and said kindly with a serious expression: "I will never forget you are loyal to me."
At this moment, suddenly her arms were grabbed and she dragged back with force! Chen was pulled down in a mess, sat on the ground, and hurriedly struggled, "What are you doing?"
She looked around and finally saw a thin man sneering among the five or six people. Chen hurriedly said, "Bold! I am the queen, you must not be rude!"
The thin man didn't say much at all, waved his hand and said, "Take her with you now and go!"
Chen Xingwang, who was lying on the ground, struggled and turned around, watching the queen being pulled away by life, but he couldn't move.
... "Crackling" a row of muskets sounded, and a war horse in front of Zhu Gaoxu screamed and neighed. The sergeant on the horse cursed and fell off the war horse.
Zhu Gaoxu glanced at the infantry phalanx that had just been set off the musket, waved his knife and shouted: "Kill!"
The cavalry kicked the horses faster. Before they rushed to the front, the Annan Army infantry formation suddenly dispersed and fled to all directions. Zhu Gaoxu cursed, kicked the horses and rushed forward, slashed with a knife, and then heard a scream. Blood beads on the back of an enemy soldier holding a musket splattered and fell to the ground.
Zhu Gaoxu continued to chase and killed several people. The soldiers beside him shouted and flew past him. The crowd cried everywhere. Many enemy soldiers threw away their weapons and ran away, just like frightened pigeons.
Zhu Gaoxu rode his horse to the west gate tower and looked up. There was no one on it. He shouted, "Open the door!" The gate tower did not move at all, and no one responded.
At this moment, a horse rushed to the wall. The soldier was very agile and his body gradually stood up on the horse's back. Seeing that he was about to fall, the man jumped and grabbed the wall of the wall with both hands.
After a while, the door opened and Zhu Gaoxu rushed in with his personal soldiers.
He rode into the manor, but saw that it was like empty inside and he didn't see anyone. At this time, a woman's scream suddenly came from the north, and Zhu Gaoxu took the bow and arrow, turned around and ran over with the sound.
Bypassing a house, he soon saw several people behind the north gate. Several men were standing at the door, one of whom was looking into the crack of the door, and the other two were holding a woman together.
When the people found the cavalry coming, they turned their heads and looked around. Suddenly the woman shouted in Chinese words: "King Han save me!"
As soon as she shouted, she was immediately covered by a man next to her. Another man moved his right shoulder and reached his hand to the hilt of the knife around his waist! Zhu Gaoxu immediately pulled the bow and aimed.
"Bang!" The sound of the strings sounded, and the arrow was about twenty steps in the middle of the eyebrows of the man who drew the sword! The man fell down without even saying a word. Zhu Gaoxu abandoned the bow directly. When he pulled out the Yanling sword, the war horse had already rushed to the front. He slashed the head of the man who was covering the woman. Blood then splattered, splashing the woman's face. She stood there in horror, as if she was stunned.
Zhu Gaoxu and others flew straight past the woman, then turned around and rushed past the door. With a scream, everyone stabbed each other, and the remaining Annan man fell into a pool of blood, with no room for resistance at all.
Zhu Gaoxu's war horse sprint could not stop immediately, so he rushed to the side for a while, and then he held his mount. "Wao!" He shouted twice and turned his head.
The woman also turned around and looked up at Zhu Gaoxu blankly.
Zhu Gaoxu looked at her and saw that she was wearing a silk robe with white skin that was rare in Annan people. She looked like a noble lady and might be the queen!
This woman looks really beautiful. At first glance, she looks no different from the Han people, but her face is exotic, her forehead is flat, and her eyes are a little deep. Her color-blind expression makes people feel pitiful, and there is a trace of blood on her beautiful face, which is even a bit strange and sad and innocent.
While looking at her, Zhu Gaoxu put the Yanling Knife back into the scabbard. She was also looking at Zhu Gaoxu.
"Are you the Queen of Annan?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.
The woman nodded gently: "Is the King of Han in the Ming Dynasty?"
Zhu Gaoxu clasped his fists and said, "It's this king."
He heard the answer and immediately jumped off the horse's back, threw the reins casually, and walked towards the queen. The queen's eyes were bright and vivid. Looking at Zhu Gaoxu, her eyes seemed to be able to speak, with thousands of words, but Zhu Gaoxu didn't understand.
