Chapter 86

The sound of artillery fire was heard in the distance, and it was already at the foot of Bao Mountain. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Huo Wuxian who was riding on the Thunder Shadow Flying Dragon Horse felt that the whole earth was shaking. Fearing that he would fall off his horse, he clung to a pair of golden horns on the dragon's head. And Naryoma didn't resist, and seemed to really agree that he was his master.

Why did it turn out this way? Huo Wuxian has made such a lament in his heart more than a thousand times. He saw the wounded soldiers being carried back from the front line, and the bloody and bloody tragic scenes stimulated his nerves even more. The thought that he might become like those people too, and that even his life would be wiped out with the gunfire, made him unable to stop his body trembling with fear.

Huo Yiben, who was riding a black horse, suddenly raised the Nine Heavens Cloud Python spear and shouted to the cavalry lined up behind him: "The light cavalry charge with me!" The heavy cavalry followed. Remember, our goal is to break up the enemy array and give the defenders on the hill a chance to escape. After the generals were out of the enemy's formation, we gathered at Hutoupo, twenty miles behind Baoshan. After saying that, he drove his horse to his son's side, and said, "It's time for you to see the scenery of the battlefield." You don't have to kill the enemy in this battle, as long as you can follow the cavalry to the end. If you die in battle, it will not disgrace the reputation of the Huo family. ”

Facing his father's almost stranger-like tone, Huo Wuxian suddenly felt extremely lost. I'm afraid that in my father's heart, I don't even have the qualifications to be his son, right? After all, no one can count on him, so he can only accept reality. Thinking of this, he was even a little relieved, and his previous fear calmed down a little. He thought to himself: "This may be the mood of people who put life and death out of the way." ”

The light cavalry regiment of the Imperial Capital Army soon launched the first charge under the leadership of Huo Yiben, wearing black leather armor, and using long swords, round shields, bows, crossbows, and long axes to fight, they were brave and fearless, tearing apart the defense line that the Hewei Army had already set up at an astonishing speed, like a black long sword rampaging at the foot of Baoshan.

The galloping Thunder Shadow Flying Dragon Horse was as fast as thunder, and Huo Wuxian didn't dare to look up at the situation around him. His hands gripped the dragon's horns, and he heard the aftermath of the clash of swords. In the panic, there seemed to be something thrown on his face, so he stretched out his hand to wipe it, and when he saw it in front of him, it turned out to be warm blood, and he immediately trembled with fear. Fortunately, there was still a horseback to rely on, so I simply closed my eyes and didn't look at those bloody and violent pictures, and kept repeating and comforting myself in my heart: "Live!" Can I live...... I'm going to live......"

Huo Yiben rushed to the front with the Nine Heavens Cloud Python Spear in his hand, and no matter who the enemy generals who came to stop him, as long as they took a look, they would be overturned from his horse. He wielded his gun with swiftness, and the blade of the gun was as nimble as if it had been brought to life under his control. He could easily kill his enemies, but he didn't do that, he just used the shaft of his spear as a club to knock them off one by one.

At this moment, the imperial capital army had killed the Hewei army blocking the mountain road, and the remnants of Huo Yunqi on the mountain also rushed down, and the two armies merged into one to kill the Hewei army on their backs.

At this moment, a tall figure rushed from the crowd of people who had been defeated by the Hewei army. This man was two meters tall, wearing crimson heavy armor, and looked like a little giant, holding a double-edged long axe, and with a wave of one hand, he swept down a row of light cavalry pursuing the victory. The cavalry that followed did not have time to stop and fell off their horses.

The little giant held a long axe in his hand and shouted in a muffled voice, "Which one is Huo Yiben?" ”

Huo Yiben happened to be close at this time, and behind him was a group of light cavalry who followed in a bloody battle, everyone was infected with blood, and some of them were even covered with scars, but their eyes were resolutely terrifying.

"I am."

The little giant's tense face relaxed, and he actually showed a smile, "I am Hewei Gang of the Hewei Army, I have heard that you are the founding general of the Tianpu Dynasty, and I have always wanted to see you." I was fortunate enough to meet on the battlefield today, and my wish was fulfilled. Come! Let me see how powerful the Huo family gun is. ”

It turned out that all those who joined the Crane Mighty Army had abandoned their original surnames, and for them, Crane Might had become a kind of faith, a divine decree that guided them in their pursuit of a better world.

In the face of Heweigang's challenge, Huo Yiben did not answer a word. When he saw Heweigang standing in front of him with a battle axe in hand, he himself turned over from the black horse and jumped down, lifted his spear over the bloody cavalry corpses, and stood opposite Heweigang.

In front of Heweigang, Huo Yiben looked too short, and the moment the two made eye contact, the signal for war lit up. The double-edged axe was so heavy, but it was swung at will by the crane power steel like a light branch, and the storm brought by the axe body was even more violent, blowing away the smell of blood on the battlefield in an instant.

Huo Yiben ran towards Heweigang's side with a gun, staying out of the attack range of the long axe. He Weigang turned sharply to face him, and the long axe changed to the other hand and continued to swing, forming an insurmountable whirlwind of axe blades.

At this time, Huo Yunqi arrived under the protection of the cavalry, and when he saw this scene, he couldn't help but sweat for his father. Half of his body is crippled, and he is powerless to help his father.

"Second brother! Great, you're still alive. Huo Wuxian also rushed over under the protection of the cavalry, and when he saw the second brother, he immediately smiled, as if the previous fear had never existed at all.

The battle in the pile of corpses was extremely fierce, Huo Yiben hadn't even used a shot from the beginning to the present, but Heweigang danced the long axe as fast as a spinning propeller, and he was already a little tired at the moment.

With a swing of the axe, the blade wind slashed through the air with an arc of slashing shadows. At this time, Heweigang's strength had been greatly reduced, in order to make Huo Yiben unable to get close to him, he tirelessly and frantically swung the double-edged axe, thinking that he had the advantage, but in this way, he forgot the consumption of his own physical energy. This may be the result of psychological effects, when people face people who are older or more famous than themselves, they will show mental tension to a greater or lesser extent, so that they lose or even forget the beneficial part of themselves, resulting in more than worth the loss.

Huo Yiben saw that the time had come, and quickly launched a fierce charge towards Heweigang's side, approaching from the opposite direction of his axe. The Nine Heavens Cloud Python spear stabbed through the air with a thunderous force, and after penetrating the armor of Hewei Steel's body, it drilled out from the armpit on the other side of his body, and blood splattered out from the cracks in the armor, and this giant man as strong as a mountain immediately fell to his knees. Huo Yiben was also merciless, holding the barrel of the gun with one hand, pulling out the saber at his waist with the other, and cutting off half of Heweigang's head with one sword.

The father and son fought on the battlefield, but Huo Mengsheng, the eldest son of the empire, faced a difficult choice.

The green smoke wafting from the incense burner slowly rose, and Ban Pinren, who was sitting cross-legged at a low table, was reviewing the application for war readiness. Huo Mengsheng also sat cross-legged not far away, the room was very quiet, and even the sound of breathing that he usually didn't pay attention to could be heard clearly.

I don't know how long it took, Ban Pinren put down a document and said: "The battle report has just come from the front line, saying that your father has successfully relieved the siege of Baoshan, and now the imperial capital army is repairing, and the next battle will be in Xia Qian for emergency." ”

Huo Mengsheng lowered his gaze and only looked at the bamboo mat spread on the ground, his eyes were as cold as ice, "It's all Your Majesty's Shengming, and my father-in-law is like a god, so that my father can win in front of him." ”

"You are too modest, the strength of the Huo family is well known, and those Hewei troops are just grass in the countryside, and they can't make any waves. According to the reports from the front, the person who injured your second brother was someone else, a group of elusive soul warriors. ”

"They're soul tattooers who work for Crane Might, right?"

"Most likely, it seems that King Hewei has long expected that His Majesty will send your Huo family to fight."

"I think ......" Just as Huo Mengsheng was about to say his thoughts, the door was opened, and Ban Pinren's wife Huo Cuicui walked in with a tea tray in her hand, he had to temporarily shut down and hurriedly got up to help.

"No need Mengsheng, don't bother with this little thing, let me come." Huo Cuicui refused with a smile, she was wearing a wisteria-colored floor-length dress today, and her dignified and gorgeous temperament was no longer comparable to that mountain girl back then.

Huo Mengsheng still insisted on taking it, respectfully put it on the table in front of Ban Pinren, and said: "Don't be polite to my stepmother, since I worshiped my father-in-law, I will treat you as my own parents, and what my son does for his parents should naturally be shared." ”

Huo Cuicui said: "You kid is always so well-behaved, gentle and elegant, just like your stepfather was when he was young." ”

Huo Mengsheng said with a smile: "I have also heard my father mention a lot of things about my father-in-law when he was young, with my current state, it is still too far away, just taking care of the affairs of Qianjitang, I am very busy." ”

At this time, Ban Pinren deliberately coughed twice and signaled that his wife was talking about business. Huo Cuicui said to Huo Mengsheng at this time: "You taste this fragrant tea, it is grown on our own tea estate, and the taste is definitely different from the outside." You continue to talk, let's eat dinner here, and save yourself from being alone in Qianjitang. With that, he left the room and left.

Ban Pinren took the teacup and drank it, and asked, "What did you want to say just now?" ”

After Huo Mengsheng tasted the tea, he responded: "I think it is also necessary for the Imperial Capital Army to gather some capable soul warriors and let them participate in the team to exterminate Hewei." After all, the strength of a soul tattoo warrior is almost comparable to the combat effectiveness of a legion, and Your Majesty doesn't want to see the result of killing three thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, right? ”

Ban Pinren put down the teacup, and Huo Mengsheng immediately helped him renew it. I only heard him say: "Dream life." There are some things that you should think of even if I don't mention them. It's good to be cautious, but being too cautious can be a stumbling block. As a politician, you should decide. ”

Huo Mengsheng's hand holding the teacup stopped motionless in mid-air, and Ban Pinren's words were like a dazzling light, illuminating the dark places in his heart, and even the corners and crevices did not escape the catastrophe.

The two of them quietly maintained a sitting posture opposite each other, and after a long time, Ban Pinren saw that Huo Mengsheng still didn't react, so he said to him again: "If you really can't make up your mind, you don't have to give me an answer immediately, after all, it's not so easy." If it were me, it would be the same, you go back and think about it slowly! ”

Huo Mengsheng stood up in silence, and when he turned around and walked to the door, Ban Pinren's voice came from behind him again: "Mengsheng, I lack a real son now, not a righteous son." ”
