Chapter 61: Eight Winds
When Jia Runpu and the eleven horses rushed forward, it was an indomitable momentum, like a tiger pounced on a flock of sheep.
In their eyes, they didn't take the thirty-odd horsemen on the opposite side in their eyes at all.
This kind of momentum made Luo Cheng's blood boil.
Although there are tens of millions of people, I will also go to the past.
This is the momentum of the cavalry, their courage.
In comparison, although he also encountered thieves twice and fought with thieves twice, whether it was good luck the first time or desperate efforts the second time, it was actually just a group fight.
"Five Riders!" Zhang Xutuo chuckled and said, "To deal with this group of horse thieves, in fact, only one army of guards is enough. If it was the Weifu Iron Cavalry led by a certain relative back then, in fact, there were two or three cavalry that could defeat these more than 30 cavalry. ”
Speaking of which, Jia Runpu and they are not cavalry at all, they used to be just foot soldiers, even if they were riding horses, they were just horseback infantry.
But it is completely enough to deal with this group of bandits.
As soon as the words fell.
Like Jia Runpu's eleven horsemen, who were rushing forward, they were already rushing faster and faster, and they formed a sharp formation in the gallop.
Like a sharp triangular knife thrusting forward.
Jia Runpu is the sharpest point on that sharp knife!
"Wind!"
The sound of horses' hooves thundered.
"Wind!"
War horses are galloping, knights are roaring!
Luo Cheng was fascinated by it.
"Juncheng, why do they shout the word wind?"
"Back then, the sharp soldiers I trained under my command had an eight-wind battle formation, and whenever I encountered a strong enemy, I never lost this formation."
The Eight Wind Array has two meanings.
One is that when this array is opened, it will be extremely strong, but the wind from all directions will not be able to enter. Another theory is that when the warriors in the Eight Winds Array roar out the eighth wind, then they will be able to break the enemy and win.
Eight wind array, can attack and defend. When they start shouting the wind word, they are ready to start a counterattack, and when they roar the wind word for the eighth time, it is the time when they fully counterattack and break the enemy.
Jia Runpu: They are veterans.
The wind is their habit and the clarion call for their attack! It was the beginning of their charge!
Wang Bo held a horse lance in his hand and led the crowd to charge forward.
The horses are galloping, and the blood is flowing.
It seems to have gone back to twenty years ago, when he joined the army, charged into battle, and died again and again for the rest of his life.
It's just that the years have passed, and he is no longer that young man.
Moreover, this time, he was not charging under the battle banner of the Great Sui.
He became the enemy opposite the Sui army battle flag.
Once, I believed in it, once, my loyal Da Sui, but now he has become my enemy, and my former comrades are now roaring at him.
Some trance.
He didn't know why he had come to this point.
Could it be that in the past ten years of the army, it was a dream to fight hard?
The mount under the step is a famous Turkic horse, worth three hundred guan, and the horse lance in his hand is made by a famous master craftsman, Fei Jin is one hundred taels, and the armor on his body is also worth a thousand yuan of Mingguang armor, but at this time, Wang Bo felt that he was not as courageous as when he first joined the army at the beginning of the year.
At that time, he only had a two-piece armor, and he held a ring-headed horizontal knife in his hand, and he could rush forward with the battle flag in the battle roar of countless companions.
Old!
He suddenly felt old.
What are you charging for now?
He looked behind him, where there were the companions he had recruited over the years, the guards he had hired, and the friends he had come from elsewhere.
"Wind!"
Jia Runpu had already let out a second battle cry, a veteran with a broken arm, who had been transferred to another place with Zhang Xutuo, and there was no chance of going into battle again in this life.
Unexpectedly, he could lead the charge again today.
Holding the knife in one hand, he only felt the blood burning all over his body.
Zhang Xutuo just watched quietly, he didn't adjust his deployment.
The 600 soldiers were still faithfully carrying out the last order, and they didn't care about the horses that rushed out, but only focused on dividing and surrounding the rest of the village.
"Wang Bo has some guts, he must have been an excellent warrior once, but it's a pity!" Zhang Xutuo sighed.
Although Wang Bo was also a warrior of the Great Sui, he was already old after all, and the more than 30 horsemen he led did not have a few former soldiers like him, and those people were just outlaws hired by money.
No matter how powerful an outlaw is, he will never be able to defeat an army.
"Wind!"
The eighth battle cry.
The two cavalry teams were already approaching.
Wang Bo stretched out his bow and set up an arrow, and shot an arrow.
Arrow out.
Jia Runpu slashed with one arm and smashed the arrow.
Wang Bo felt a little pity in his heart, this was an arrow with all his strength, but the other side actually seemed to be able to block it easily. It seems that the other party really has some ability, otherwise he would not dare to rush into battle with more than ten horsemen who are so careless.
The two sides began to shoot at each other.
Arrows flew all over the sky, but I only saw a few people on Wang Bo's side who were hit by arrows, and two of them fell off their horses.
Only two or three arrows were shot at each of them, and each of them collected his bow and began to pick up his lance and spear.
"Jun Cheng, Qin Qiong, please fight!"
Qin Qiong, who had been watching the battle silently, suddenly spoke up.
Zhang Xutuo just shook his head.
"In this battle, you are the head of the escort, and your duty is to protect the general."
The two cavalry teams finally approached and began to fight in close quarters.
I thought there would be a very exciting fight, a big battle of 300 rounds or something, but the result disappointed Luo Cheng, and it can even be said that he fell into the eyeballs.
The more than 30 horsemen led by Wang Bo were scattered by the 10 horsemen led by Jia Runpu, and only one charge.
The two sides made a mistake, and Wang Bo's men fell off their horses.
And Jia's men did not fall.
Wang Bo did not turn his horse's head and continue to lead his troops to fight, but ran directly south, ignoring his fallen and injured subordinates.
The embarrassed appearance of the escape, the people who watched were dumbfounded.
"I don't even have the courage to do it, but I'm not a rat." Zhang Xutuo's face was contemptuous.
Jia Runbo and the others had already turned their horses' heads and pursued them again.
One side moved forward bravely, chasing and fighting fiercely, but the other side only cared about fleeing for their lives, and as a result, people kept falling off their horses, and the more they fled, the more embarrassed they became.
was bitten tightly, but it was difficult to escape.
To the south is the mountains and forests, but there are at least four or five miles of land, and this distance is usually a tea time on horseback, but now, being tightly bitten by eleven evil wolves, it is impossible for Wang Bo and them to escape into the forest.
If this continues, before they can flee into the forest, they will be killed by the wolves behind them one by one.
Wang Bo stopped.
The mount rises from its standings.
"Big brother?"
The rest of the people are puzzled?
"I can't run away, let's fight with them!" Wang Bodao.
"Big brother, we can't fight, we can't fight them."
"I can't fight, it's just a dead word left and right, but I don't want to be hacked to death from behind, if I want to die, I'll just stand here and die!"
Wang Bo said hard, but few of the remaining twenty or so horsemen were willing to listen, and most of them continued to flee south without stopping.
In the end, only eight horsemen were left around Wang Bo.
"Hahaha, and you brothers die with me, it's worth it!"
The ten horsemen led by Jia Runpu only bypassed them and continued to chase and defeat the fleeing horse thieves, ignoring them at all.
Luo Cheng held the banner and followed Zhang Xutuo to Wang Bo and surrounded them.
"You are Wang Bo?"
"You're the new county commander Zhang Xutuo?"
The two looked at each other, and Wang Bo's gaze finally fell on Qin Qiong and Luo Cheng.
"Uncle Bao, I can't imagine you betraying me!"
"I didn't." Qin Qiong shook his head.
Luo Cheng slammed the banner to the ground, and then rode his horse to Wang Bo, and said disdainfully, "Wang Bo, Second Brother Qin has not betrayed you, but you are unkind and unjust, I came to Qingyang Villa to treat you as a friend, but as soon as you left, you sent someone to intercept and kill our brother halfway, which is really disgraceful." ”
"I didn't." Wang Bo glared.
"Isn't Wang Yonghu your subordinate? Didn't he bring eighteen horsemen to intercept us? Wang Bo, now that the matter is over, it is superfluous to talk about anything else, put down the sword and surrender! ”
Wang Bo asked in surprise, "Wang Yonghu led people to intercept and kill you, I don't know about this." ”
Zhang Xutuo didn't bother to talk to him about this, and waved his hand, "Take it!" ”
