Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

Defang nodded, "It's not too late, let's go now."

Just when the people were about to turn up the mountain, they suddenly heard the sound of horseshoes running in the distance, and a few arrows suddenly fell at the feet of Defang and the others. After a closer look, it was a group of disorderly troops rushing, Tian Cheng immediately pulled out the arrows. Defang ran to Defang with a knife, seeing that he couldn't hide, so he turned around and handed the sword on the horse and a short knife to Concubine Di and Peng Tianxian and said, "Steward Peng, take your wife and some old people back to the mountain immediately. quick!"

Peng Tianxian didn't dare to delay, so he took Concubine Di and several old people and ran up the mountain with his sword. The rebel army came with three or forty people, and immediately surrounded Defang and Tian Cheng. The knife shouted, "You are the ones who killed me?"

Defang looked at the people's clothes, which were similar to those of the dead rebellious army. Although the uniforms of the rebellious army were not as neat as those of the imperial army, they could still tell that they belonged to the same army, so she replied, "So what? The remnants of the rebellion, everyone gets to punish them!"

The man on horseback was very angry when he heard this, and he swung his sword and shouted, "Kill them!"

More than 30 rebels rushed forward holding spears and knives. Tian Cheng stood in front of Defang and cut and wounded the leading rebels with a single knife. Tian Cheng couldn't completely protect Defang behind him. A dozen or so rebels rushed straight to Defang. Defang held the dragon stick in his hand and stood where he was. Squatting, turning and sweeping, five or six rebels fell to the ground at once, clutching their calves and howling, Defang straightened up, supported a downward-splitting knife with the body of the stick, kicked the opponent's abdomen, and turned around with the stick Swinging down violently, the opponent only knew to cross the spear to support him, but he didn't know the special feature of this coiled dragon stick. The short stick was hit by the force of the support, and hit the back of his head harder, and his eyes suddenly went dark. Passed out, Defang and Tian Cheng quickly knocked down more than 20 people to the ground. The rider saw that the situation was not good, and immediately shouted, "Get out!"

The remaining rebels ran back as soon as they heard this. Tian Cheng was about to chase, but was stopped by Defang.
