Chapter 356: The Battle of Concubine Pass (1)

The wind blew wildly on his face from the north, and the eagle banner beside him swayed repeatedly under the sharp teeth of the wind, rolling up the air flow on the wasteland, making the cloak behind Chu Xianzhao cling to his back.

The sky was as gray as a rock, and even the sun was hidden behind dark clouds, and on the other side of the moor, the army of the condensed army galloped in, forming a large and orderly phalanx, which was like a blood-red brocade of great beauty.

At the forefront of these phalanxes, all the civil officials of the imperial court, from the weak crown to half a hundred, were beheaded by Tantai Ninghua, and their heads were stuck on a big wooden pole.

One end on top of the other, like blood-red sugar gourds, people can't bear to look at it directly, but it's funny and desolate.

Tantai Ninghua felt that these civil officials could not solve internal worries and could not defend themselves against foreign enemies, and they were even waste, so they all ordered to be killed

In the end, send their heads to the battlefield for Tantai Ningsu to take a good look, this is the result of her alliance with the Yinguo, he is a well-deserved king of fear.

Chu Xianzhao grabbed the reins of the horse with his hand with barbed wire gloves, and held the reins tightly, he looked at the burning sugar gourds, and death was like a bottomless abyss.

After today, there will be more people dying here, but he wants to prove what the right path is, and prove to the people of Shuyue that Tantai Ninghua is the real traitor, not Tantai Ningsu.

At this time, his right hand holding the sword opened and closed repeatedly, he hoped that he could keep his fingers flexible in the cold wind, and he wanted to kill Tantai Ninghua with a sword, and he would not show mercy.

The white mist brought by the breath slowly spilled out along the cracks in the mask armor, and in an instant, the world outside the eyes was blurred.

At this moment, it was as if time had been turned back, and the Buddha had returned to the palace in Lin'an City, wearing a brocade robe instead of the current white armor cloak.

He held a wooden sword in his hand, and his opponent was not Yutai Ninghua, but his brother.

From the time he could walk, the two brothers often carried wooden swords in the palace, and they walked around the red sandalwood columns, laughing and shouting, because no one saw them, and even if they were hurt by the sword in each other's hands, they would not cry.

Because in their imagination, they are not children, but heroes, and heroes do not cry.

The elder brother always let himself, and the wooden sword in his hand slashed him far more times than he slashed himself, until one time the elder brother's wooden sword slashed his cheek, leaving a small scar, and then for a month, the elder sister did not say a word to the elder brother, and secretly broke the wooden swords of the two of them.

It was that time that I tasted blood in my mouth for the first time.

Now that the smell is slowly appearing in his mouth, he wants to prove to everyone that he will win this war!

He was not afraid of the flying dragons, nor was he afraid of the army of the Condensation...... He wanted to prove to the grieving mother that he could save her daughter!

At this moment, a huge cavalry army slowly advanced from his rear, the plain area south of Feizi Pass.

Chu Xianzhao could clearly feel the shock behind him, and in that scene, thousands of horses galloped, trampling mountains and rivers!

This strongest cavalry of the Yin Kingdom, which had experienced the Battle of Jingnan City, the Battle of Anxicheng, and more than 20 battles in Shuyue, originally had 30,000 people, but now there are only 11,852 people left.

But the momentum of the army was still fierce, like a line of river tide, rapidly advancing towards Chu Xianzhao's side.

The wind eagle iron cavalry unified black armor, is the most easily recognized cavalry in the many cavalry battalions of the Yin country, every ten people in the queue must hold a pure white eagle flag, the white flag in the wind at will, such as flowing clouds than snow, fluttering with the wind!

The iron cavalry stood out with swords and guns, and this cavalry army that seemed to come from the northern region was just like a black cloud sweeping the world!

Meng Yu rode his horse to Chu Xuanzhao's side, the man was wearing iron armor, his momentum was awe-inspiring, and most of the wind eagle iron horsemen said expressionlessly: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, forgive us for making Your Highness wait for a long time." ”

Chu Xianzhao turned his head slightly: "Just so many people?"

"That's it. ”

Chu Xianzhao said in a deep voice: "Enough." ”

There was no doubt or cowardice in the young prince's tone, this is the spirit of the royal family, with fewer enemies and more enemies, he is still not afraid of the battle.

Meng Yu was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, rest assured, Meng Yu swears to the gods of the sky that the iron wings of the Wind Eagle Iron Rider will protect His Highness and fight to the death until the last moment." ”

Chu Xianzhao looked at the army in the distance and said softly: "Fight to the death...... Death or war?"

Meng Yu didn't answer Chu Xianzhao's question, but said to himself: "Your Highness has been very unhappy all the way, and the last general has seen it in his eyes, so the last general is also very unhappy, as long as the last general kills them all today, His Highness will be happy, right?"

Chu Xianzhao clenched the reins of the horse and was silent, his face under the armor was dark.

Meng Yu pointed his gun at the Ninghua army of Tai, and suddenly shouted: "I have never had a defeat in my life, and the Northern Barbarians defeated the Northern Barbarian army of 12,000 with three thousand iron horses, yesterday and today!"

Chu Xianzhao looked at the man in front of him, remembering that many years ago, he used to ride on his neck, and he raised the matching sword he handed to him in his hand, and the black-armored man was riding on a pure white war horse, how high-spirited.

To this day, he still "rides" on a man's neck overlooking the entire battlefield, which makes him feel reassured, and his chest is gradually filled with something called bravery.

Courage is the most meaningful thing that the gods have given to mankind, and it is enough to surpass the divine nature attached to human nature.

Another meaningful thing is **, which is people's weak occupation of material desires and power.

Since ancient times, all generations of people have been trapped in the cage of ** struggling, whether it is the Confucianism and Taoism saints who are righteous and level the world, whether the Taoist real people return to the basics, or the Buddhist monks who want to quit hatred, after all, they can't step out of this cage.

The living live to die, and the dead abandon life to die. No one must live, and no one must die.

Those who are alive are stepping on the shoulders of the dead and looking up to move forward, their hearts are like rocks, and they are alive and gone.

Chu Xianzhao said something very strange to Meng Yu

"No matter what the outcome of this war is, I, Chu Xuanzhao, owe you too much." ”

Compared with Chu Xianzhao's early arrival, the self-proclaimed emperor of Shuyue did not take a chariot at this time, but wore a silver armor, riding a horse in the middle of the army, at this time the sun rose in the east, the two-zhang long flag behind the Tai Ninghua fluttered in the wind, and the gold leaf on the flag reflected a dazzling light in the morning light.

Behind him the cavalry walked away in a row, as if there was no end in sight.

According to the rules of Shu Yue, the emperor should ride the golden chariot pulled by twelve horses, but Tangtai Ninghua didn't want to do that, he wanted to personally pierce Chu Xianzhao's body with a gun, cut off his head and send it back to Yinguo to show Chu Xiaohua, just like he sent the head of Shantai Ningsu's mother to her.

He really didn't expect that he would use this army now, above the real ten thousand people in Shuyue, instead of the strategist who always did his best to her beside Ning Su, and the dragon chant from the clouds reflected Queen Zhao's trust in him.

Although Long Wumastiff's cold arrogance made him feel a little eye-catching, it didn't matter after all, and now he used the troops he brought to him, step by step, to eat this hard-toothed iron cavalry in one bite.

He is not worried about Chu Xiaohua's revenge, the backer behind him is the Qing'an Dynasty, what are Chu Xiaohua's allies? Are some barbarians riding horses and wolves? It is really a big joke in the world.

The expedition of the iron cavalry of the Yin Kingdom will end in front of the gate of Li Jingcheng, and the young prince who does not know the height of the sky, as well as the iron cavalry behind him, will soon become the ghosts of his own soldiers.

Tantai Ninghua looked at the black-armored cavalry that was as mighty as the sunrise, and thought that all the cavalry of the Yinguo Kingdom, known as the best in the world, had died under his hands, and for the first time in his life, he was so rampant, and he even wanted to roar loudly!

Shantai Ninghua lifted the scarlet spear that had killed countless Chu soldiers, and the spear was inlaid with countless priceless gems, and then it was stained red with blood, and he raised his eyes with the spear in his hand, but it was difficult to suppress the belief in his heart.

That perennially indifferent face was gradually torn apart by the hideous agitation, and he couldn't wait to stab the spear into Chu Xuanzhao's body now, but in the face of the third prince of the Great Yin who was so bright and high, he was still more or less jealous,

At this time, the young prince was wearing a striking white armor, and his posture was outstanding, probably the kind of enemy siege that the poet said, and I was afraid that the jade tree was in the wind.

Tantai Ninghua squinted his eyes and felt a little complicated, he was the same as Xiaohua back then, the kind of young imperial army deservedly, proud of the arrogance of daring to fight immortals in the world, only people who were born in the emperor's house and received the baptism of royal luck all day long can precipitate such a light.

Although he said that he was given the surname of the word "Tangtai", if he hadn't slaughtered the ancestors of the Shuyue Dynasty, he would have been destined to have no chance of Wang Xi in this life, and Shuyue's Zhenguo Qi would not give him a piece of a spoonful of the foreigner, this is his fate!

Thinking of this, Tantai Ninghua couldn't help but become hideous, his five fingers firmly grasped the barrel of the gun, and the green tendons on his neck burst out.

His jealousy of Chu Xiaohua was so strong, the scourge that this man brought to Shu Yue was like a flame thrown on the vast plain, and after the wind and grass were blowing, it was like a fire!

The flames of war are endless, burning on the battlefield, burning in people's eyes, burning in people's hearts, and finally burning one dynasty after another to ashes!

Behind him is the Liuyun spearmen of the Shuyue Iron Armor Sensen, compared to the Danyang cavalry who all died under Danyang City, this royal forest spearmen who have been called the "Spear of the Cloud God" by the royal family of Shuyue in the past dynasties have a transcendent status, and all of them are elite spearmen from Shuyue.

Most of the strongest spearmen in Shuyue were single-handedly transferred by Shantai Ninghua, and all the Tangtai Ninghua usurped the throne as queen and still stood in the storm of civil strife, the root of which is that he mastered the most powerful and powerful force in Shuyue, and half of the hearts of the people in the military department were firmly in his hands.

The biggest credit of this army is that Shuyue is in the situation of internal and external troubles, helping this unjustified man successfully sit on the throne of Shuyue, which also has the credit of the Blood Python Gang, but now the Blood Python Gang was severely injured by the Yinguo cavalry and nearly died, and after the end of this war, there is no strength to share the fruits of victory with them.

Tantai Ninghua looked at Chu Xianzhao from a distance, the young prince of the Yin Kingdom who was standing on the edge of the military formation seemed to be indifferent, slowly lifted the mask on his face, did not say anything passionate and emotional, nor did he rush over with the troops in one go, they were just separated by a distance of less than three miles, as long as he wanted, he could order Long Wumastiff to burn them to ashes now.

Empress Zhao gave him a death order, no matter whether this war ends or not, Chu Xianzhao can't continue to live, such a person has threatened the thousand-year-old rule of the Qing'an Dynasty, and he must not be allowed to live.

Tantai Ninghua did not continue to ride forward, but watched the soldiers deployed in various arranged positions, and it was the first time for Tantai Ninghua to see such a military formation, watching the Yinguo cavalry stretch the battle line to both sides and slowly retract.

Every direction in which the land spearmen stood seemed to be full of deep meaning, and the man's eyes widened as he recalled the tactics that had appeared in various military codes, but his mind was blank, and he couldn't even understand such tactics.

It doesn't matter if you don't understand it now, in short, the winner of this war can only be himself, he pointed a spear at his neck, smiled at Chu Xianzhao and asked loudly: "Chu Zhaozhao, my big good head, can you pick it off?"

Chu Xuanzhao ignored him, don't have any conversation with this madman in such a situation, and when his sword cuts off his head, see if he can still laugh.

"Not convinced, Long Wu Mastiff, it's time for your people to appear!"

The dragon chant that resounded in the sky came from the sky, and Meng Yu clenched the barrel of the gun and looked at the arrow array formed behind him: "Your Highness, I feel that something is wrong. ”

"General Meng, look!"

Chu Xianzhao pointed ahead with a pale face, Meng Yu looked along his fingers, and suddenly felt that his throat was choked by a cold hand, and with a roar, a huge black shadow fell from the sky, and landed heavily in front of the military formation of Shentai Ninghua, this huge beast was one of the culprits who burned Minsai City that night, just like its name, Chiyou.

The dragon's horns and claws are like bright copper, the thick dragon's whiskers are windless, and on its back is the dragon mastiff, the dragon warrior's army

Dadutong, the dragon scale armor on his body shone brightly, and he stood up like a general, holding a terrifying battle sword in his left hand.

The dragon walked on the ground with its head held high, every step was so calm and powerful, the sideburns behind the cheeks were as sharp as feather arrows, and more dragons as burly as it fell from the sky, and a full fifty dragons stood in front of the military formation in a neat and orderly manner.

The giant dragon roared at Chu Xianzhao's army in a volley, Chu Xianzhao and those cavalrymen were stunned, the dragon roar was overwhelming like a sea tide, as if it would swallow them at any time.

One of the dragoons took out an extremely long iron rod, stood up on the dragon's back, and stuck it hard in the snow beneath him, and the banner wrapped in the iron rod spread out with the wind like a phoenix ascending to the sky.

Chu instantly summoned the amazingly large Golden Dragon Banner and felt his heart beat rapidly.

Meng Yu's face turned pale and said: "Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, we can't fight, you see those dragons, if we rush over now, the dragon flames will kill us all!"

Chu Xianzhao suppressed the fear in his heart and said stubbornly: "I can't retreat, I see that the platform is quiet." ”

Meng Yu was stunned, and then he also saw the little princess of Shuyue, the child trembling beside the dragon mastiff, with a terrifying dragon like thunder in front of him, and an army of spearmen approaching like a tide behind him.

Her face was not good, her face was sickly blue, and the clothes on her body were still the same as they were worn that night, and the beast of Tantai Ninghua didn't treat her as a princess at all, but as a slave.

Tantai Tranquility also saw Chu Xuanzhao, she stood on the back of the dragon while crying and silent, and behind her stood a burly man like a rock.

She was powerless to run away from the dragon's back, covering her ears to avoid the terrible dragon's roar, her hands and feet were cold and her face was blue, as if even the beating of her heart was a burden to her.

She was a particularly timid girl, and she was also short, and her tall and alluring mother could only be regarded as cute compared to her, and now she could only hug the doll in fear when she heard the thunder, and in the dark and deep palace, she always felt that the sound she could hear was like a poisonous snake spitting out the core.

It wasn't until she met Chu Xianzhao and the girls beside him that she slowly became brave, she followed Guan Ju and Ye Weiwei to fly through the sea of clouds with her sword, and jumped up from a hundred-foot-high waterfall, as if only these times could she be braver, not as brave as her past self.

She really likes Chu Xianzhao, likes Chu Zhaozhao's politeness and gentleness to her, and likes his natural humor, just like an older brother who grew up together.

What she likes most about Chu Xianzhao is the warmth on his body, this sense of companionship that she has never felt in her father, when she is with Chu Xianzhao, she is not afraid of those terrible soldiers at all, and she is also about Ju, they will protect themselves and use the swords in their hands to cut down those who hurt themselves and their mothers.

It's always cold inside the palace, except for a few touches of emerald green bamboo, it seems that everything is gray, but Chu Xuanzhao is like dispelling the gray scorching sun, and his body is glowing with a thousand rays of light.

Now her sun is here, with an army behind her, but she hopes that he will not come, go back to Yinguo with their memories of each other, and leave Shuyue, the land of right and wrong.

Tantai Ninghua noticed her gaze at Chu Xuanzhao, and motioned for Long Wumastiff to grab Tantai Ningning's back neckline and gently put her on the snow, Tantai Ninghua smiled coldly, turned over and dismounted, put his hand on Tantai Ningning's shoulder, bent down and whispered, as deferential as he had seen him before.

"Your Highness Princess, did you see that man, he came to save you with an army, do you want him to live?"

Seeing that she still didn't speak, Tantai Ninghua said in a slightly aggravated tone: "Your Royal Highness Princess, it seems that Her Majesty the Empress will not be able to come today, but it is Chu Xuan who has been summoned to pick you up, why don't we play a game, do you want to reunite with him?"

She looked up tremblingly, her dim pupils glowing with a glint of light, and she nodded with difficulty.

"Well then, you walk over now so you can be reunited with him. ”

Tantai Ninghua's voice suddenly became louder, overshadowing the high-pitched dragon roar, and went straight into Chu Xianzhao's ears.

Chu Xuanzhao almost crushed a mouthful of white teeth, this damn bastard! He actually brought Tai Ning Su to the battlefield! He was going to kill him, and he was going to strip his bones and hang him on the city wall!

Then he heard the laughter of Tantai Ninghua, "Then let's go, little princess, let's go, if you go fast, you can still reunite with him, if he dies, you can still be a companion on Huangquan Road, this is a big bargain!"

She stiffly took a step in the direction of Chu Xuanzhao, and then she heard the sound of arrows whistling, and a feathered arrow shook in front of her, frightening her soul.

"Little princess, you go too slowly, be smart, go faster so that you can be reunited with him, don't be afraid, your subjects are watching you from behind. ”

He took out the second arrow from his quiver and pointed it at the quiet back of the company, and she ran like a rabbit targeted by a hunter.

"Little daughter, go, boldly move forward, go forward, don't look back!"

As she spoke, she began to sing.

Tranquility ran towards Chu Xuanzhao with tears streaming down her face, but she couldn't see the road ahead at all, and could only hear the arrows roaring from behind.

"Your Highness, you can't mess around, Your Highness!"

Meng Yu's hand was abruptly thrown away by Chu Xianzhao, and he watched the young prince charge with a gun and a horse, his eyes were like a lion who had been offended by his territory.

"Little daughter, you boldly go forward, go forward, don't look back. ”

"There is a boy on the other side of the stone bridge, and there is a ninety-nine road to the sky. ”

"Little daughter, you boldly go forward, go forward, don't look back. ”

"The red hydrangea is sprinkled upstairs with red sleeves, and the son will drink a pot with you. ”

"Drink all the way to Huangquantou!"

Tantai Ninghua sang wantonly, repeatedly shooting arrows with a bow, forcing the girl in white to run towards Chu Xuanzhao.

It was quiet in Shantai, and Chu Xianzhao also galloped towards their military formation, isolated and helpless.
