Chapter 204: The Long Halberd Kills King Zhao

When the sound of killing on the logging road shook the sky, the 2,000 cavalry of the Zhao army, who had quietly intercepted the entrance to this valley, were also ready for battle.

According to the original arrangement, they ambushed in the shadows, watched the three thousand cavalry of the Qin State pass in front of them, and then quickly cut off the valley mouth. King Zhao's order was very clear, they did not have to take the initiative to participate in the battle in the valley, as long as they held this retreat, and all the defeated enemy troops were not allowed to be spared.

The general who led more than 2,000 horses was Wang Jun. This young man was personally promoted from the army by Chu Jiangmian, the king of Zhao. More than half a year ago, he was just a school captain, but in the battle of Qixialing, this young school captain worked hard and directly cut off the head of Bai Chu, a famous general of the Southern Han Dynasty, among the ten thousand troops, and became famous in a battle. For this reason, after the end of the war, he was personally rewarded by King Zhao, and promoted him to the leading general under Long Yu. And this time, he let him lead these two thousand cavalry to go out with the army, which is enough to see Chu Jiangmian's trust in him.

Wang Jun was an aspiring young man, and like many soldiers in the army, the young King Zhao was the object of their common allegiance. In the hearts of these enthusiastic people, they are all looking forward to following King Zhao to create a more brilliant future.

Being able to get the opportunity to go to the Qi country, Wang Jun naturally cherishes it very much. For any order of King Zhao, he obeyed his words and obeyed them unconditionally and absolutely.

It's just that at this moment, seeing the firelight not far away illuminating the entire valley, the sound of those shouts and fighting was deafening, Wang Jun, like all the cavalry, was a little restless on the horse, such a wait was really too unbearable!

"General! Let's kill it and see...... Any later, the Qin army will be all killed! ”

The impatient cavalrymen looked at their young general and wished that he would give the order at once to go ahead and see what was going on. Wang Jun was even more anxious than them, however, such an order was not so easy to say.

"The king has not commanded, and no one is allowed to act rashly. Prepare for the Qin army to come back. ”

Wang Jun stared intently at the direction where the fireworks were coming, and although the knife in his hand was held tightly, he finally took a deep breath and suppressed the impulse in his heart.

Since the general did not give the order, the two thousand cavalry could only continue to wait. Now they are only looking forward to the appearance of the Qin army as soon as possible, even if everyone kills a few! Otherwise, it would be too shameless to wait here and wait until the end of the war without accomplishing an inch.

In fact, there is a slight regret in Wang Jun's heart. If he was given a choice, he very much wanted to use the cavalry in his hand to compete with the cavalry of the Qin State. What kind of tiger and wolf teacher, what is the world's famous general, he never pays attention to it! The so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he is talking about a young man like him.

What's more, he is quite confident that he will win. Wang Jun looked down at the equipment on his body, and felt the pride in his chest. The source of his confidence was the new weapons and sturdy armor that King Zhao had equipped them with.

It is no exaggeration to say that the armor worn by the cavalry of the Zhao army is definitely the strongest among the princes' armies in the world. The new type of armor made by the Zhao State Ordnance Smelting Department using special technology is not only light and thin, but also has a toughness that is not comparable to ordinary armor. This greatly improved their level of protection on the battlefield, and everyone was more confident when they were bravely charging.

In terms of weapons, in addition to the divine crossbows equipped with their hands, the long knives in their hands are also sharper than those used before. Although it is not as powerful as the sharpening of iron and clay, it is much more powerful than the one used before. It is said that this new style of war knife was also made by those smelters under the personal guidance of King Zhao and added special materials. Not all of them were used in the Zhao army, but they came to fight in Qi this time, but they were all equipped with them first.

With these advantages, Wang Jun and his cavalry were very eager for a real battle to prove their strength. But will such an opportunity come to them in the battle of the Lumberroad? It's still unknown.

And just when these Zhao Guomen were eager to fight, they didn't know that on the battlefield not far away, a thrilling scene suddenly happened.

The Zhao army, which was ambushed on both sides of the mountain, was already victorious. The 3,000 Qin cavalry that were surrounded lost nearly half of them in a short period of time. The rest smoked and flared, and retreated in disarray. Zhao Jun naturally won't give them a chance to escape, the crossbow arrows don't stop, this more than ten miles long, even if they can't wipe them all out, they will die.

Lan Lingjun, who was standing beside Chu Jiangmian and watching the battle, couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the situation in front of him. He let out a sigh of relief and stroked his palms in admiration. Victory came so easily! If Mu Xueqing can really be killed here, the danger of the Qi Kingdom will be lifted immediately, and there will be no worries!

"Hey, what about Mu Xueqing...... Where did he go? ”

Princess Sanssouci next to her exclaimed softly, interrupting Lan Lingjun's train of thought, who was in high spirits. He couldn't help but be shocked, and when he hurriedly leaned over to look, sure enough, the figure on the white horse was gone. The news that the spies of Zhao Guoqianji Pavilion heard was very accurate, and they already knew in advance that the only one in this cavalry team who rode a white horse was Mu Xueqing. But now that he has suddenly disappeared, how can it not be suspicious?

"Huh! He came up. ”

Chu Jiangmian smiled faintly. Whether it was Princess Sanssouci or Lan Lingjun, they didn't understand the meaning of his words. was stunned, and a figure flashed, but Bai Ye, who was holding a double hook, was already in front of Chu Jiangmian.

"Stand back, Lord! This man is said to be very powerful, just in case, I still ordered the soldiers to aim at the target and shoot him directly! ”

Bai Ye's expression was grim. When Princess Sanssouci and Lanling Jun followed his gaze, they saw a ride like flying, climbing over mountains and mountains like walking on flat ground, and in the blink of an eye, it was not far from here. Only then did they understand what Chu Jiangmian was talking about!

"That's ...... Mu Xueqing! He rushed up alone, what did he want to do? ”

Lan Lingjun was surprised. Although his own strength is not too high, he is also well-informed, and there is no shortage of powerful people under him. After hearing and seeing, there is still a vision in this regard. He looked at the figure galloping up from under the mountain, even the people and horses were shrouded in a murderous aura, which was extraordinary! Then you know that those who come are not good, and if the good ones do not come, it is likely that there will be trouble.

As Bai Ye beckoned, the dozens of Thousand Machine Pavilion spies around him also surrounded him. They surrounded Chu Jiangmian and began to be on alert. No one knows Mu Xueqing's power better than them. In the information collected over the years, the force value of this famous general of the Qin State can definitely be ranked among the grandmasters of the world.

The nearby Zhao soldiers also discovered the enemy's coming, and in the sound of the shouting order, many crossbow arrows turned around and shot towards the white horse. But I didn't expect that the horse was unusually beautiful, and seemed to have the same heart as its owner, and it was unexpectedly hurt to travel between the mountains and rocks.

And Mu Xueqing, who was on the horse at this moment, was engrossed in his mind without distractions, and all his attention was focused on the figure standing high in the mountains. With his intuition, he knew that the person who was protected in it must be Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian! Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, the crossbow arrows shot were becoming more and more dense. Mu Xueqing swung his sword with one hand to shoot the flying crossbow arrow, patted the mane of the war horse with the other, and whispered.

"Protect yourself. I'll come back when I go kill someone! ”

The white horse seemed to understand his words, and raised his head to the sky and neighed loudly. Mu Xueqing no longer hesitated, the long sword came out of his hand, and it was like a bolt of lightning, stabbing straight at the target more than ten zhang away! At the same time, he already had an extra halberd in his hand. With a shake of his arms, he danced up and down. The strength was everywhere, the sand and stones were flying wildly, and within the rest of the square circle, all the crossbow arrows had lost their accuracy.

Zhao Jun, who noticed the abnormality, couldn't help but exclaim in unison, the long sword was everywhere, and someone was injured. No matter how far or near they were, they all realized the danger that King Zhao was about to face. The master is coming, and it's not trivial! If Chu Jiangmian fails, it will be a common disaster for Zhao and Qi. And the cavalry of the Qin army below, who were struggling to support themselves in the rain of arrows, burst with brilliance in their eyes at the same time. Their general is about to kill the king alone, and maybe the next moment he will turn defeat into victory and regain control of the overall situation!

There seemed to be a moment of silence on the flaming logging road. Among the eyes of countless people up and down, I saw Mu Xueqing, who jumped up from the horse, lightly tapped the rock with the tip of the halberd, and his body flew away with the halberd, and more than ten crossbow arrows grazed under his feet. He sneered in mid-air, and when he flew up again with the power of the halberd, the person had already jumped up the mountain rocks, his eyes were fast, and in the blink of an eye, the four or five figures who rushed over to block were picked aside, blood splattered, and he was either dead or injured.

"Chu Jiangmian! Take your life! ”

Mu Xueqing let out a loud shout, exhaled the qi in his chest, and the tip of the halberd flashed coldly, stabbing straight forward. Although the moonlight on the ridge is hazy, it is not very real. But Mu Xueqing believed that his judgment was absolutely not wrong, the young man with an extraordinary bearing and looking at this side calmly must be King Zhao. The two of them were only a few steps away, and if he wanted to kill him, no one could stop him!

From discovering that this enemy general was attacking alone, breaking through the rain of arrows, to the sword flying in front of him, those cold eyes full of murderous intent shot straight over, but it was only a moment of effort. This is the strength of the strongest in the world!

Chu Jiangmian didn't leave a single step. Through the moonlight and the light of the sword, he saw the determination to kill in those eyes, and he couldn't help but sigh slightly. It would be a pity to kill a famous general so easily. He had originally fantasized about whether it was possible to accept it, but he only glanced at the other party and understood that it was just his wishful thinking.

"Logging road, logging road...... Mu Xueqing, since you have stepped here, can you still live? ”
