Chapter 614 She Was Helpless

It was dusk now.

Cui Pu saw the dusk in Chang'an many times when he was young.But he was still young at that time, and he couldn't feel much of the feeling of bleakness at dusk.However, now, with the remaining 200 people, he lifted the bound Guangwu King and his party to the top of the city, and looked at the mighty Tubo army below, Cui Pu realized for the first time that Chang'an, which was once extremely bustling and prosperous. The city will also have such a desolate side.

However, what is more desolate should be his heart!

Marshal Tubo rode on horseback, looked up at Cui Pu, who was dressed in armor and solemn, and immediately said, "Hanyang King, you are finally willing to come out. I thought you were used to being a coward until the city was broken. I will never show up!"

Cui Pu looked at him coolly. "Every time I resisted your siege, the king was there, but you had already shrunk into the crowd and couldn't see the king."

That is to say, when it doesn't matter, of course I won't show up.But once it comes to the critical moment to fight against you, I will always be there!And when and where were you, the person who is shouting so loudly now?You are the one who is really afraid of death and hid behind!

Marshal Tubo was choked by his words, so he laughed dryly: "King Hanyang, what can you do if you are stubborn now? Do you think I don't know that Chang'an City is already empty now, and there are only less than 300 people left under your command?" Just relying on you old, weak, sick and disabled, how long can you fight against our [-] army? If you change your mind now and order someone to open the city gate immediately, we can still let you continue to let us see you as a man. You keep your glory and wealth. It's even okay to let you be the chief assistant!"

"If this king opens the door freely, then he is not a real man." Cui Pu said coldly.

What this person said was clearly sarcastic to him.

"So, are you planning to fight us to the end?" Tubo Marshal looked gloomy, "If that's the case, then don't blame us for being rude!"

Cui Pu smiled when he heard this.

"You're impolite, but it's because of him?" He suddenly raised his voice, then waved his hand, and King Guangwu and his party, who were tied up like zongzi, had already been sent to the tower.

When Marshal Tubo saw this, his expression changed.

Cui Pu sneered: "If you think that you can invade Chang'an and enjoy the prosperity of Chang'an city with the help of this worthless man, I advise you to give up your mind! Because this person is not as useful as you think , yourselves are not as capable as you imagined yourself!"

After all, he didn't bother to say much, so he raised his hand directly: "Throw it down!"

Immediately, the boy who delivered the letter and the person who had been sending messages to Mr. Tubo these days were thrown directly from the city wall.

He came for real!

King Guangwu was so scared that his lips trembled: "Cui Pu, you can't do this! This king is the county king, and this king is the clan! You beat the clan and took the clan sacrificial flag. If the saint knows about this, he will definitely... I will definitely kill your whole family!"

"Don't worry, when the sage knows what you have done, he will kill your whole family." Cui Pu smiled lightly, then drew out the knife, raised it and dropped it.

"You can't... you can't! Marshal help, save Ben—ah!"

Before King Guangwu finished speaking, his head left his neck, and the last yelling came to an abrupt end.A stream of blood sprayed out, dyeing the Tang Army flag hanging on the wall bright red.

"Today, this king will use this man's blood to commemorate the soldiers who died in resisting the Tubo army these days!" Accompanied by King Guangwu's shout, Cui Pu's reassuring announcement sounded.

After beheading this man, Cui Pu felt dirty even when he touched it, so he just picked up the bloody head with a sword and threw it in the direction of Marshal Tubo: "This is what this king gave you these days. I have been looking down through the autumn waters waiting for the king's apology, I wonder if you are still satisfied?"

The strength he used was very precise, and the direction of the throw was also accurate.However, Marshal Tubo was not bad at all. Seeing that King Guangwu's head was thrown over, he drew out his broadsword and flicked it to the side, defusing the oncoming attack.

It's just that this fresh head is still oozing blood, and his current actions naturally stained his face with blood.

Marshal Tubo didn't care, just wiped it casually, and continued to shout to Cui Pu: "This man is nothing more than a puppet to us. Now that we are all here, we don't need him anymore. We also want to thank you, King Hanyang." Help us cut off this trouble. King Hanyang, you are a true hero, and our Khan also sincerely admires your talent. Now, as long as you are willing to put down the knife in your hand, we promise not to hurt you one bit. Moreover, you We will not touch the palace, the Cui family, and the families of these people!"

"That is to say, besides this, you will not let go of other places in Chang'an City!" Cui Pu nodded, explaining what he meant.

Exhausted, the soldiers who had just heard the other party's words and felt excited for a moment, when they heard Cui Pu's words again, they immediately regained their spirits.

They guarded the city for more than ten days to protect themselves and their families, but now, they have to protect more than just their families.What they want to preserve is the entire Chang'an city!
Back then, Luoyang was looted and looted by the Huihe army.Although the women and children in Luoyang were saved under Cui Pu's obstruction, the city of Luoyang still experienced a catastrophe and has not recovered so far.If Chang'an also encounters such a cleansing now, then the people in Chang'an city will have a hard time in the future!This is their capital, the place that the people of the New Tang Dynasty most yearn for and are most proud of. How can they allow it to be bullied by the iron hooves of foreigners?
Hearing what he said, Marshal Tubo couldn't help sneering.

"In this way, King Hanyang, you are going to die to the end? If so, well, we will have to accompany you to the end!"

After finishing speaking, he raised the saber in his hand: "My sons and daughters of Tubo, everyone! The capital of the New Tang Dynasty is close at hand. As long as we capture him, countless treasures and beauties will be at our disposal. Our people I can also move to this place with rich water and grass, and I don’t have to suffer year after year of winter hunger!”

When the people in the Tubo army heard this, their eyes glowed green, and they obeyed the order to attack the city wall again.

Cui Pu also immediately organized people to fight back.

The Tubo army has a large number of people, and the tools for attacking the city are also very complete.These people crawled towards the city wall in a swarm, making the soldiers guarding the city wall tired of throwing them off.In addition, there are also throwing weapons and guarding around, and everyone is very busy.

There was not enough manpower, so Cui Pu went into battle himself, and threw the big stones sent up to the tower on the heads of the Tubo soldiers who climbed up the city wall.

I don't know how long this action has been repeated mechanically.Unknowingly, the dusk faded, and a round of bright crescent moon climbed into the sky, spreading the faint light to the earth.

And in this soft halo like tulle, a dazzling light suddenly appeared in the Tubo army below, which made Hu San startled suddenly.

"County king be careful!"

Hearing the sharp sound of a sharp instrument piercing the air, a feathered arrow was coming towards Cui Pu's direction.

Hu San hurriedly pushed Cui Pu aside.But the opponent seemed to know their plan, and then the second and third arrows followed, and the second one hit Cui Pu's chest with a bang.

Cui Pu felt a sharp pain in his chest, and the huge momentum brought by the feather arrow made him almost unable to stand firmly.

Fortunately, Hu Sanyan and his hands were quick, and he supported him firmly again.

Cui Pu immediately grabbed his hand with his backhand: "We must not let everyone know!"

Hu San nodded immediately: "This subordinate knows!"

However, before the two could speak, the Tubo soldiers below began to shout: "The King of Hanyang has been shot by an arrow! The King of Hanyang has been shot by an arrow!"

The cries grew louder, almost deafening.

The soldiers around also hurriedly looked over.When they saw the arrow stuck in Cui Pu's chest, panic and retreat appeared on their faces.

Cui Pu gritted his teeth, and suddenly broke the arrow and threw it aside: "It's just an arrow, what's the big deal? Didn't the king suffer fewer injuries when he quelled the Anshi Rebellion? Be lazy, keep hitting me!"

Hearing his angry yelling, everyone finally calmed down a bit, and hurriedly turned back to deal with the Tubo soldiers.

What they didn't see was that after calling the last word, Cui Pu's men had already leaned directly on Hu San, without any support at all.

Hu San was very anxious, but he still could only pretend to be calm and said: "Your Majesty, you are injured, you should go down and bandage yourself quickly! Come, my subordinates will help you." Then, he said to the people next to him. wink.

Cui Pu struggled to push him away. "The king is not dead yet, I don't need your help!"

He held his head high and walked down the tower step by step.

When the soldiers saw this, their hearts fell completely.

But just after turning around and walking up two steps, the little strength Cui Pu had accumulated with great difficulty was completely exhausted.He tilted his body to the side and almost fell headfirst.It was Hu Sanyan who had quick hands and quick hands, and brought him back again.This time, he didn't talk nonsense anymore, he quickly helped him up and went down to find Mu Jiaojiao.

Mu Jiaojiao is a little restless now.

When Cui Pu escorted King Guangwu up the tower, her heart began to beat faster.Although every time Cui Pu takes people to retreat from the enemy, her heart beats faster.But this time, she felt her heart beat faster.

"Buddha bless, don't let anything happen, don't..." She closed her eyes, clasped her hands together and muttered to the moon.

However, things still let her down.

"Princess, the county king has been hit by an arrow, come and take a look!"

Hu San's low growl suddenly woke her up.Mu Jiaojiao hurriedly turned around and came back, only to see Cui Pu who was almost carried back.At that moment, she felt her heart stopped beating.

Seeing Hu San put Cui Pu on the couch, and uncovered his armor, exposing his left chest that was stabbed by the arrow, Mu Jiaojiao's chest also began to ache.

She walked over slowly, reaching out to take his pulse.

The pulse was weak, which proved that the arrow had hit his vital point, and the current situation was very dangerous.

"Princess, you must rescue the county king. Otherwise, Tubo's treachery will really succeed, and our guards for more than ten days will be in vain!" Hu San stood aside and said anxiously.Fearing that the news would be heard by outsiders, he had to lower his volume and became even more anxious.

"I know. Don't worry, with me here, he won't die. I won't let him die either." Mu Jiaojiao said slowly, then took out the needle bag that he carried with him, and shot Cui Pu's chest with an arrow. Dozens of needles were stuck in the place.Not only that, but she also pricked several acupuncture points on Cui Pu's body.

"Princess, is it convenient to pull out the arrows now? The subordinates took a look and found that the arrows they shot were all with barbs and blood grooves. If the arrows were pulled out forcibly, I'm afraid it would cause deeper damage to the county king's body." Hu San said, and offered an arrow that he had brought with him when he went down the tower.

Mu Jiaojiao glanced at the structure of the arrow, and couldn't help feeling dizzy again.

Those Tibetans are so insidious!They actually... In order to get rid of him, they actually resorted to such a sinister scheme!They made up their minds to put him to death!

Originally, she wanted to take the risk and try to draw the arrow for him, but now she has no courage at all.

It's not that there is no hope, but...she dare not.

Now she felt her body was shaking, her hands and feet were shaking too.She had already exhausted all her self-control when she gave Cui Pu an injection to forcefully seal the veins just now.Now, she couldn't even stand still, how could she have such a good concentration to draw his arrow?
Originally, she was not good at this kind of trauma.

But now, all the good doctors in Chang'an City have almost run away, leaving only some people who are reluctant to part with their homes, and now they are all working in the wounded barracks. She knows their abilities very well.

Looking at Cui Pu whose chest was still heaving slightly, Mu Jiaojiao closed his eyes helplessly.

In vain, she was called a miraculous doctor's wife. Over the years, she has cured no less than a hundred cases of difficult and miscellaneous diseases.But now, facing her seriously injured husband, she found herself helpless.

She is helpless!
