Chapter 360 Zhong Chuyan
When the barbarians who were still attacking the city saw the reinforcements coming, they immediately became chaotic.
Those who had already entered the city also panicked and quickly became confused.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wanyanha turned around and ran away with his soldiers, not caring about the people in the city.
Zhou Wuchang rode a horse, followed by his disciple Zhou Hao and a dozen guards. He followed the team into the enemy group and slashed at the enemy with a long-handled sword.
This time they came with a total of more than 2,000 cavalry and more than 3,000 infantry. They specially attacked when Wanyan Hashi entered the city. They could definitely drive away more than 7,000 barbarians.
Sure enough, Wanyan Hashi was attacked from both sides, and immediately lost his fighting spirit and fled with a large group of troops.
Zhou Wuchang did not chase him, but concentrated on taking care of the remaining bandits.
Not long after, the barbarians outside the city fled to death, and those inside the city were also killed one by one by Zhang Taishou and his men.
After that, people quickly cleared the city gate to welcome the Daqian reinforcements into the city.
The governor's mansion was also being attacked by a group of barbarians. Dozens of cavalry broke open the gate and rushed into the mansion, trying to rob the governor's family. As a result, they fought fiercely with the guards and slaves in the mansion.
Ying Bao and her younger brother Hu Zi worked together to knock down two barbarian bandits, and the three of them were injured as a result.
Mrs. Zhang also took off her long skirt, put on a short jacket, and fought with the cavalry with a machete.
She was protected by three or four guards, so she was not injured.
The lady in the kitchen picked up a pot of boiling oil and poured it on a barbarian, causing him to scald and scream.
The two aunts and several older maidservants also each held sticks and forks, and one of them also carried a bench, waving them at the bandits.
But these old and weak women and children were no match for dozens of barbarian bandits, and they all soon lost their fortune, and two of the servants also died.
Just as several barbarian bandits surrounded Ying Bao and the other two men and slashed them with knives, a large stone as big as a tabletop flew towards them, hitting one of them and causing him to fall to the ground dead.
The other people were stunned and before they could react, they were also knocked down by the big rocks coming towards them.
Huzi and the Zhang family opened their mouths in surprise.
He saw Ying Bao running towards a barbarian bandit quickly. With a wave of his arm, a stone as big as a washbasin flew out and hit the man on his waist.
The barbarian immediately fell to the ground and howled.
Ying Bao knocked down several people in succession, and the barbarians reacted and surrounded them with howls.
Mrs. Zhang and others could not get what they wanted, so they all chased and attacked.
Just like that, the battle was slightly even.
After that, another group of people rushed into the prefect's mansion.
"Senior Brother! Second Senior Brother!" Yingbao immediately recognized the leaders as Zhou Hao and Zhang Min, and jumped up happily.
Zhou Hao and Zhang Min nodded towards her, and before they had time to ask questions, they raised their knives and rushed towards dozens of barbarian bandits.
They also brought a hundred soldiers and fought with the barbarians.
At this time, Mrs. Zhang took Yingbao and her children into the house to avoid being accidentally injured.
There were many injured servants and guards in the house, so Ying Bao took out medicinal powder and pills from her bag and distributed them to them.
Everyone looked at Ying Bao, but they all hesitated to speak.
Yingbao didn't explain the stone incident just now, and only lowered his head to clean the wounds of his younger brother and Huzi.
The two children had several scratches on their bodies, including a wound on Jiang Wu's arm that was so deep that the bones were visible.
Ying Bao was so heartbroken that she quickly cleaned him up, took out a needle and thread to sew up the wound, then covered it with Wuding Zhi and wound medicine powder, and bandaged it.
Huzi also suffered several injuries, including one on his back.
Fortunately, he was wearing a thick cowhide vest, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Fortunately, they had all learned martial arts and were quick to dodge. Otherwise, the barbarian's sword would have cut off the tiger's head.
The two servants lying in the yard are living examples. Their heads were chopped off by the barbarians.
Half an hour later, the battle in the yard ended.
More than thirty barbarian bandits were all killed and carried out of the prefect's mansion by soldiers one after another.
Zhang Xuehua and the two little sisters were released from the inner courtyard by the maid.
Ying Bao ran to find Zhou Hao: "Elder brother, is master here too?"
"Yeah." Zhou Hao was as cold as ever, "Master also called Xiao Mo to save you...to save Jingzhou. We met General Zhong's men again halfway, so we simply came together."
Jingzhou is a military artery. Once the barbarians open this gap, they can go all the way south to Luzhou.
Therefore, Jingzhou cannot be defeated.
Ying Bao cannot die.
Ying Bao: "Where is the master? I want to go see him." By the way, I thanked him for his life-saving grace.
"Master is busy. You should heal your injuries first." After speaking, Zhou Hao left with a group of people, but left twenty or thirty people to guard the prefect's mansion.
In the evening, Mrs. Zhang took several maids to the kitchen to cook meals for the injured servants in the house.
He also took out a large sum of money to pay for the burial of the dead servants, and also paid a year's salary to all the servants and maids in the house.
Over to the two aunts, Mrs. Zhang sent some silver and clothing materials so that they could rest peacefully.
After eating, Mrs. Zhang came to see Yingbao.
"Thanks to you today, we were able to survive the rescue."
Mrs. Zhang respectfully saluted Ying Bao, which shocked Ying Bao and quickly returned the salute: "Madam, please don't say that. I was just trying to save myself."
At times like that, I really couldn't care less.
Either watch Huzi and everyone in the Zhang family die, or expose his abilities. Yingbao really has no choice.
Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang didn't ask anything. She just thanked her and gave her a pair of jade bracelets with excellent water quality.
Even if Ying Bao didn't know it, she knew that these jade bracelets were extremely valuable.
Yingbao refused to accept it.
Because she was afraid that it would be broken while wearing it while working.
"It's not worth anything, just keep it." Mrs. Zhang grabbed Ying Bao's arm and put a pair of jade bracelets on her wrists.
There was no other way, Ying Bao had to accept it and thanked Mrs. Zhang.
In the next few days, Yingbao took her younger brother and Huzi to recover from their injuries in Zhang Mansion.
The servants in the mansion were all very respectful when they saw her, and even spoke of her as a little heavenly master.
On this day, Zhou Wuchang finally came.
Yingbao had a lot to say to her master, so she immediately ran to the front yard.
In the front yard, she not only saw Xiao Mo, but also Chu Yan, who was dressed in military uniform, exactly the same as in his previous life.
Ying Bao looked around him curiously and asked, "Are you brother Chu Yan?"
Chu Yan smiled at her and nodded: "Ying Bao, long time no see."
"It's been a long time indeed." Several years have passed since Chu Yan left Dongchen Village with Uncle Xu Kun.
Zhou Wuchang said from the side: "His surname is Zhong, and he is the grandson of General Zhong of the Western Army."
Yingbao blinked.
The grandson of the Zhong family of the Western Army? No wonder Xiao Mo was able to lead the Western Army to usurp the throne. Zhong Chuyan was by his side to help him emotionally.
Hear Chu Yan say: "My current name is Zhong Chuyan. Ying Bao, when you go back, help me bring something to my sisters and the others."
Ying Bao asked curiously: "Don't you go back and take a look? Sister Chu Chu's Niuniu is several years old, and Hei Dan is several months old."
Chu Yan shook his head: "I will go back to see them when I have the chance."
