Chapter 168: Mountain Pass
"Kill!"
There was a loud shout on the side of the mountain road, and thousands of soldiers poured out and rushed towards the convoy, Liang Jin took the lead, although he carried a heavy horse-pounding horse, but the running speed was not slower than that of the other soldiers, and soon he ran at the forefront, and his purpose was revealed, which was the crossing of the mountain road.
Hearing the attack of the bandits, the convoy immediately made a defensive response, at this time the iron cage was walking to the mountain pass, Bian Jian realized the direction of the bandits' attack, many years of experience in the battlefield made him understand where the fighter was, and immediately shouted: "The whole army retreats back to prevent the mountain bandits from hijacking the car!"
Although Bian Jian's reaction was extremely fast, Liang Jin was like a tiger descending from the mountain, and quickly came to the mountain pass, and with a fierce swing of the horse's lance, he knocked down several soldiers who resisted, and then one person stood in place, blocking left and right, although tens of millions of people could not enter. The other soldiers of Wohua Mountain also took the opportunity to kill and protected the carriage of the iron cage in it, because the mountain road was narrow, the Qin soldiers could not kill it for a while and a half, even if they had high-level warriors, they could not break through quickly.
Kou Xiuyong and Li Zhengxing saw Liang Jin coming, Li Zhengxing was about to move forward to kill, but was blocked by Kou Xiuyong, and said: "Brother Li is slow, now that Liang Jin is a master, the mountain road is narrow, we can't attack at the same time, all the cavalry are trapped here, and they can't help Bian Lao Hero, why don't you just stay here?"
Li Zhengxing said: "What if something happens to Uncle Bian Jian?"
Kou Xiuyong said: "At this time, only Liang Jin is guarding the crossing, and the purpose of the other mountain bandits is to rob the people in the iron cage, and now there are no three eight-stage martial arts masters in the military camp of Wohua Mountain who can make a move, don't worry, we can just let Liang Jin rob people." β
Li Zhengxing was silent and said: "Then let's wait and see, if there are other high-level martial artists, we must not let Uncle Bian Jian get injured, the Bian family is friendly with my Li family, and there can be a response above the court." β
Kou Xiuyong nodded and smiled, as for what was hidden under his smile, no one knew.
Bian Jian fought in front of the mountain bandits to block it, seeing that the cage car had been occupied by the mountain bandits, and was about to drive towards the path, he directly displayed all the abilities of the martial arts master, and there were many mountain bandits on the narrow mountain road, but he couldn't become his general, and in a blink of an eye, many bandits were killed.
The few Wohua Mountain soldiers who were ready to drive Bian Jian killed, and immediately fled in a panic, what they had to face was a martial arts master full of anger, they had almost no chance of victory, but the task given to them by Liang Jin could not be abolished, they stepped forward, and they were ready to be generous, but at this moment, a black halberd stood in front of them, it was a figure without armor, but his weak and sick state everyone could see.
"General Jiang Ming!"
Several soldiers shouted in unison, they all knew that Jiang Ming was injured, and it was impossible to directly face a martial arts master, but Jiang Ming was still standing in front of them, how could they not bow their heads and salute such a general?
Jiang Ming said coldly: "Drive the iron cage away, I will stop you here." β
Several soldiers hesitated a little and said, "General Jiang Ming, but your injuries ......"
"Let's go!" Jiang Ming shouted loudly, and the determination in this cheer made them all moved.
Bian Jian pointed his spear forward and shouted, "Jiang Ming, are you the mountain bandit who repelled Cheng'er in the secret attack plan?"
Jiang Ming was quite suspicious: "What? Who are you talking about? What is the matter?"
Bian Jian said: "That's it, a few months ago, my nephew Bian Daocheng was secretly planned by Pang Lu
Crossing the Cochin Mountains, if you hadn't exposed his tracks in the battle, causing all the plans after that to be nullified, he wouldn't have taken the risk of attacking the Wohua Mountain military camp out of his next strategy, do you recognize this matter?"
"Bian Daocheng?" Jiang Ming was a little confused, and asked: "It seems that you are the elder of Bian Daocheng, you were hostile at the beginning, and I should have forced him back, didn't I kill him after that? Do you still want to blame me for this war?"
Bian Jian said: "On the battlefield, victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, but you are too shameless in doing things in Wohua Mountain, and you actually tied Cheng'er to my house after being captured, making my Bian family the laughing stock of the entire capital. β
Jiang Ming looked quite helpless, so he couldn't help but stab out a halberd, and said: "Another noble person who believes in everyone, he will insult your ancestors and ancestors at every turn, if this is the case, where else in the world can see it?" I tell you, I don't care which big family you are, as long as you dare to attack Wohua Mountain, I will do my best to kill you, Bian Daocheng is just an accident, next time I will definitely not leave you alive!"
Jiang Ming's words are not exaggerated, he has been in contact with many noble people over the years, he is more and more unpleasant, and his mood is also extremely unstable during this time, what he needs most is to use battle to suppress the anger in his heart, Bian Jian's words completely moved the injustice in his heart, he believes that even if he is seriously injured now, he will not be afraid of Bian Jian to a certain extent.
"Good boy, there are really not many such arrogant mountain bandits, let me end your life, lest you go to harm the people again!"
Bian Jian's spear swept and showed a set of marksmanship very similar to Bian Daocheng
, but the essence of it is much more profound than Bian Daocheng, Jiang Ming vaguely remembers that this is called the soil marksmanship, which is the ancestral marksmanship of the Bian family, which is characterized by being dense and unbeatable, and cannot be broken. When Jiang Ming saw this marksmanship on display, he could judge the level of Bian Jian's martial arts cultivation, and Bian Daocheng was probably just a beginner in his eyes.
Jiang Ming's halberd could not be broken, and he also suffered a loss of qi and blood, and his strength had been exhausted in less than a moment, and now he was only fighting with it with his rich combat experience and flexible reaction ability, for fear that if he made a mistake, he would be stabbed by his spear. Jiang Ming gradually felt that the strength of his body was no longer enough to pick up the halberd, and he was shot in the chest by Bian Jian, and when he retreated, he hit the mountain rock, which made the qi and blood in his body surge, but he felt a trace of powerlessness.
Bian Jian stood in front of the gun and shouted: "You are actually injured, and you dare to fight with me in such a state, I really don't know what to do!"
Jiang Ming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "No way, if I don't make a move, no one here will be able to stop you." β
Bian Jian said: "The words of the mountain bandits, whether true or false, can only make people feel that they deserve it, since you have robbed the person in the cage, I must kill you today." β
Jiang Ming said: "Kill and kill, I haven't been afraid of anyone yet?" It's just that I still have a trick, would you like to try to take it?"
Bian Jian angrily rebuked: "You are a seriously injured person, what can you do, if you want to take the opportunity to escape? Then show it to me and let me see it." β
Liang Jin, who was standing at the crossing to resist the soldiers behind him, was facing the siege of Kou Xiuyong and Li Zhengxing at this moment, and he was already a little unbearable, but when he saw Jiang Ming's scene, he hurriedly shouted: "If you don't let you make a move, you have to make a move, you can't beat him, go quickly." β
Jiang Ming slowly straightened up, walked towards Bian Jian with his back to Liang Jin, and shouted with a smile: "They have already driven the carriage away, and when I finish this trick, it is time to retreat." β
Bian Jian said: "Are you really dying? If you leave now, there will be that big man to protect you, maybe you will have a chance to escape." β
Jiang Ming said: "I never need to retreat with my whole body, if I can't see blood, it will make me feel that this battle is meaningless." β
"What a madman!"
I saw Jiang Ming put the Fang Yuan halberd in front of him, and slowly closed his eyes, Bian Jian and a group of armored soldiers in front of him didn't dare to move lightly when they saw this scene, but they heard Jiang Ming say softly: "Ten feet halberd, killing is ineffective." β
Suddenly, Jiang Ming turned into an afterimage, and the halberd suddenly swung out, as if all the regions within ten feet were under his control, Bian Jian suddenly felt great pressure, it seemed that the other party's halberd blade was attacking from all directions, although it was only a short time, but he couldn't resist, even if he had rich combat experience, but in the face of this kind of halberd without omen, no matter how dense the earth marksmanship could not be stopped, only the sound of gold and iron intersecting, Jiang Ming's figure could not be clearly located, and the next moment Jiang Ming actually fell from the sky, as if he was going to break through Bian Jian's headγ
But at this moment, Bian Jian finally saw his movements clearly, swept a shot, and whipped Jiang Ming out fiercely, and his treacherous and terrifying moves came to an end. Jiang Ming lay on the ground, gasping for breath, this time he no longer had any strength to deal with anything, even an ordinary armor soldier could easily kill him at this moment.
Bian stood straight in place, his posture as a victor was always radiant, but in the next second, he actually vomited a mouthful of blood from the martial artist's abdomen, and no one saw when he was injured, but he knew very well that Jiang Ming had already stabbed the halberd into his lower abdomen once when the previous move was unfolded, although it was only a shallow wound, but that kind of domineering stabbing strength made his five organs very uncomfortable.
Jiang Ming saw this scene and laughed: "If I have all my strength, I will definitely be able to kill you!"
This presumptuous laugh immediately shocked everyone in the mountain road, ordinary people would only think that it was not Bian Jian, who could hurt the eighth-stage person in his heyday, and the power of the heyday should be very strong, but Liang Jin understood that Jiang Ming's previous state was not as good as the third or fourth of the heyday, and if he used this trick after he recovered from his injury, he didn't know what kind of results he would achieve.
"This talent is amazing, this kind of ghost trick is too terrifying, since he is my enemy, I can't give him a second chance to do it. β
Bian Jian made up his mind in his heart, so he slammed his hand and stabbed Jiang Ming, he believed that at such a speed, Jiang Ming would no longer have a chance to resist. Liang Jin on the side began to frantically block Kou Xiuyong and Li Zhengxing's moves, he couldn't watch Jiang Ming, who had no strength, being killed by Bian Jian on the spot, but he couldn't catch up with Bian Jian's speed at all.
"Jiang Ming!"
Hearing Liang Jin's shout, Jiang Ming actually felt a little regretful, he didn't have to think about those troubles today, but maybe his life would be lost here. He felt a lot of helplessness again, everything in the world should be so helpless, but when he saw Bian Jian's spear stabbing at him, he was still afraid.
But the next second he didn't face death, he was saved again, but the person who appeared this time was too unexpected for him, the thin figure didn't want to have the power of eight leads, and the face full of gangsterism didn't look like a good person had.
didn't quite block Bian Jian, and snorted coldly: "I don't have the ability to fight with me, so I directly took the order to fight with others, your concept of Wohua Mountain really surprised me, even if there is no one in the camp, I can't send you up!"
Jiang Ming smiled bitterly: "
This is my own initiative, it is not good to fight with you, not to mention that I have not fought with others, now I am just helping to resist. After the item is healed, I must first find you to fight, but your wish is gone. β
He glanced at Jiang Ming coldly, and said, "Let's go, the opponent you are looking for is simpler, and you are still waiting for me to win and carry you down?"
Jiang Ming was interested, and thought that even if he couldn't beat this Bian Jian, it would not be difficult to entangle him, so he decisively dragged his injured body and retreated. Liang Jin also strongly got rid of the entanglement between Li Zhengxing and Kou Xiuyong, gathered a group of soldiers from Wohua Mountain, and escorted Jiang Ming to retreat.
When the soldiers of Wohua Mountain drove the carriage back to the barracks, Lin Han happened to send the soldiers out of the camp to greet them, although the three generals Bian Jian, Kou Xiuyong, and Li Zhengxing were chasing with the cavalry, but they suddenly encountered the invincible heavy cavalry, even if they used all their strength, they could not break it, let alone snatch back the people in the iron cage. Seeing that the archers of Wohua Mountain were already standing in front of the camp, Li Zhengxing, who knew that the situation was difficult and dangerous, hurriedly suggested that Bian Jian retreat.
Returning to Jiaozhi Road, Bian Jian's face was angry, he grabbed Li Zhengxing's arm and asked, "Li family boy, let me ask you, whose idea is it that you led the cavalry to escort my convoy?
Li Zhengxing was a little stunned, whether it was in terms of seniority or official position, he didn't dare to resist the old man in front of him, so he had to curry favor and said: "Uncle Bian Jian, this is naturally my idea, this greedy wolf under my command is brave and incomparable, if you fight on the plain, even if you have twice as many people and horses, you will not be afraid, today it is just because the mountain road is narrow, and you can't give full play to your ability." If I delay Uncle Bian Jian's matter, I naturally can't get rid of my crimes, and I ask Uncle Bian Jian to punish me!"
Uncle Bian Jian observed Li Zhengxing's expression, and couldn't find the appearance of deception, so he let go of it, sighed heavily, and said: "Forget it, it's no wonder that you are here at this time, let you come to guard the convoy, naturally you want to take out the strongest team under your command, it is not wrong for you to send a greedy wolf to ride here, I am too worried." It's just that this Gan Yaliu is the person personally asked by His Majesty the Emperor, and now he has been rescued by the mountain bandits, and I don't know what their calculations are, so this mission can be regarded as a mistake. β
Kou Xiuyong greeted him and said: "Old hero Bian, forgive me, Your Majesty wants to transport this Ganyaliu back to the capital, undoubtedly to show the strength of the Qin army, and to contain the southern barbarians to march north, the generalissimo of the western soldiers and horses to capture it is still a demonstration of the ability of my pro-dynasty, in fact, it doesn't matter if it can't be transported to the capital, what we have to do is not to ask Ganyaliu to flee back to the barbarian county, so as not to cause trouble to my own dynasty." β
Bian Jian sighed again, and said: "You're right, we'd better hurry into Jiaozhi City now, and let Pang Lu send troops to help us capture Gan Yaliu again, even if Wohua Mountain has already formed an alliance with the Nanban, we can't let the tiger return to the mountain, if we can't capture it, we will kill Gan Yaliu on the spot, so as to deter the barbarian emperor who doesn't know the height of the sky, I don't believe that he is a half-step barbarian with nine dans, and he can still block the siege and killing of four or five martial arts masters." β
Kou Xiuyong said with a smile: "Old Hero Bian is decisive and admirable. β
Qin soldiers retreated, Lin Han and Liang Jin slowly integrated the soldiers and horses, for Jiang Ming's previous behavior, Liang Jin naturally made severe criticism, this time Lin Han also unusually agreed with Liang Jin's point of view, and criticized Jiang Ming together, but Jiang Ming had not heard half of it, so because of the aggravation of his injury, he fainted again. The two had no choice but to send him back to the barracks, and without showing friendship to anyone, they returned to their camps.
"Jiang Ming really doesn't want to talk about this behavior today, he clearly knows what his physical condition is, and he still has to rush forward to do it, if it weren't for the one who didn't shoot in time, maybe he would have been stabbed to death by Bian Jian of the Bian family. β
"Although you still have to blame, Jiang Ming seems to have done you another favor?"
"yes, another favor. I want to block Kou Xiuyong and Li Zhengxing at the mountain crossing, and no one in the team can stop Bian Jian, if he hadn't made a move, Bian Jian might have killed him directly, not only killing all the people I had arranged for the carjacking, but also forming a siege around me, and I am afraid it will be difficult to get out. It's just that...... It's just that he still has a problem with his brain, although that halberd did hurt Bian Jian, but it didn't play a role, when he escaped, he wouldn't face that kind of crisis!"
"This guy, it seems that he has been really in pain lately, and he has rushed to kill regardless of his safety, as if he has used the battlefield as a place to vent. β
"But isn't it, there are no military regulations, no military discipline, it's really infuriating! He has to fight to help, if something goes wrong in the end, how can I deal with it? Although the county guard of Daling County is important, it is not as important as his life!"
"By the way, you really went for the county guard of Daling County?"
"That's right, although that man is greedy for money and profit, but he has already taken refuge in us a long time ago, if we don't save him, we will inevitably have the hearts of those who are willing to join Wohua Mountain in other cities, otherwise I won't want to take his kind of role. β
"One more thing, isn't that one who went out of the camp with you? Why was he able to act so timely and rescue Jiang Ming?"
"I don't know about this, I always feel that the marksmanship is a little weird, and today's shot is even more familiar. β
......
