Chapter 536: Great Tribulation and Immortality
As a prince, Higashikuri has never been so embarrassed as he is today.
Being chased and killed by the Chinese like a dog is definitely the biggest shame in his life for Higashikuri Tsugahiko, but he is not in the mood to care about these things at all, and now the only thing he needs to consider is how to escape from the pursuit of the more than twenty Chinese cavalry behind him.
The valiant Guards are still faithfully carrying out their mission.
The two mounted guards turned back and launched a tragic, resolute, and suicidal charge against the Chinese cavalry that was trailing and killing, and although the two of them were soon hacked to death by the swarming Chinese cavalry, their sacrifice was not for nothing.
Under the desperate entanglement of these two mounted guards, more than 20 Chinese cavalry were still dragged for a while, and only the most skilled Chinese cavalry rode straight past the obstruction of the two mounted guards, drew a beautiful arc on the plain, and cut obliquely to the left front of Tohisa Tsugahiko.
Obviously, the intention of this Chinese cavalry was to grab the left front of Higashikuru and intercept him.
This Chinese cavalry is none other than Tie Xiaogang, and what Tie Xiaogang is riding is Chitu.
After being seriously injured at Teapot Pass last time, Tiegang didn't lead the cavalry to charge much, so he gave Tie Xiaogang his most beloved Red Rabbit Horse.
The Red Rabbit Horse is no worse than the Oriental horses ridden by Tokuhiko's guards before, and it is comparable in terms of height, endurance and speed of instant sprints.
And what Higashikuru is riding now is only an injured Toyo horse.
Therefore, although Higashikure's riding skills are much higher than that of Tie Xiaogang, the speed is still significantly slower, and Tie Xiaogang was slightly behind at the beginning, and soon ran in tandem, and, as time went by, Tie Xiaogang gradually had a tendency to surpass Higashikure.
"Drink, hey!" Tie Xiaogang urged the red rabbit to run forward, and turned his head to the left to look at Dongjiu Twist.
The next moment, the corners of Tie Xiaogang's mouth couldn't help but reveal a touch of banter, because he found that the Toyo horse under Higashikuhiko's crotch had begun to become physically exhausted due to blood loss, and the most obvious evidence was that he began to spit, which meant that Tohisaki's war horse could fall at any time.
Of course, Tie Xiaogang didn't know that Higashikure Twisthiko was a prince, he only knew that this was a lieutenant general of a little devil, at the same level as Inaba Shiro, and if he was arrested, Inaba Shiro, a coward, would have a companion, in the words of the regiment commander, plus Shigeto Chiaki, and the three of them would be able to fight the landlord.
Higashikure also noticed that his horse was foaming at the mouth.
But even so, Higashikuru didn't dare to let his horse stop.
"Ha, ha!" The only thing Higashikuri can do is to stand upright from the horse's back, shift the center of gravity as far forward as possible, and at the same time bend the whole body into a figure-seven shape, maintaining this posture can reduce the wind resistance as much as possible, so that the horse can run with little effort.
After chasing for a while, Tie Xiaogang became impatient.
"Dog, I'll see how long you can run." Tie Xiaogang roared angrily, his legs were forced, and the spurs on the military boots were heavily stabbed on the horse's belly, and the red rabbit horse suddenly raised his head and hissed sadly under the pain, and then miraculously increased his speed by a cut, surpassing Dongjiu Twist in one fell swoop.
After surpassing Higashikure, Tie Xiaogang urged Chitu to cut diagonally.
Higashikuru saw that he couldn't do it, so he quickly took out the Wang Ba box and shot indiscriminately.
But on the back of a horse running at high speed, the opponent was a high-speed moving target, and the result can be imagined, even two shots failed to hit the target, and the pistol jammed when the third shot was fired.
"Yaga!" Higashikuru cursed, threw away the Wang Ba box, and pulled out the saber.
Soon, Tie Xiaogang rode up on Chitu, and then raised the saber in his hand high.
However, Tie Xiaogang was not ready to hack this devil lieutenant general to death, but only planned to knock him off his horse.
Higashikurehiko also raised his saber and prepared to fight back, but at this time, the war horse under Higashikure's crotch finally fell to the ground because of excessive blood loss, and his front hooves fell to the ground, and Higashikuretsuhiko on horseback was swept out in an instant, and the saber in his hand flew far away and fell into the grass.
After rolling more than a dozen heels in a row, Higashikuri twisted into a dirt bag and stopped.
This collision directly knocked Dong Jiu Twist Yan to the back, this little devil is also unlucky enough, he fell off the horse twice in a row in one day, and he fell badly enough.
Tie Xiaogang rushed over dozens of meters before finally slowing down and turning back.
Turning back in front of Higashikuri Twisthiko, Tie Xiaogang found that the other party had passed out.
At this time, more than 20 Chinese cavalrymen who had been blocked by the two horseback guards of Higashikuru also caught up and surrounded Higashikuru who was dead on the ground.
"You, you, tie up this little devil!" Tie Xiaogang immediately ordered two cavalrymen to dismount and arrest them.
The two cavalrymen were just about to dismount, but the cornfield in front of them suddenly sounded a dense gunfire, and the Chinese cavalry on horseback was caught off guard and fell from the horseback one after another.
"There is an ambush, disperse, disperse!" Tie Xiaogang hurriedly ordered to disperse, but it was too late.
There are not only machine guns but also snipers of devils who are ambushed nearby, because this time it is not ordinary devils who come to meet them, but the special operations team of Toshisi Okahara.
In fact, Okahara Toshihiko's special combat team had already been hiding in a cornfield not far away, and had already discovered the embarrassment of Higashikuhara being chased, but Okahara Toshihiko, a little devil, was indeed cunning enough, if he showed up to rescue at that time, the Chinese cavalry would very likely shoot and kill Higashikuhara in a hurry, so he simply did not move.
The result was really as expected by Ojihara Toshisi, under the premise that the overall situation of the battlefield had been decided, the Chinese cavalry came up with the idea of capturing Higashikuhara Twistahiko alive, which gave Higashikuhara Twistahiko the opportunity to get close to the cornfield, and also gave the Ojibara Brigade the opportunity to launch a fatal blow.
Of course, Higashikure didn't know about the existence of the Okahara Brigade, he was just driven by instinct and desperately ran forward for his life, but the direction of escape happened to be the direction of the Ojibara Brigade's ambush, and this was the fate of this little devil.
Under the intensive machine-gun fire, more than 20 Chinese cavalry cavalry were soon shot into a sieve with men and horses, and even the Chinese cavalry who were lucky not to be knocked down by the machine-gun fire were also killed by the snipers of the Okahara Brigade ambushed on the left and right.
In less than a moment, only Tie Xiaogang was left alive in an entire cavalry platoon.
Although Tie Xiaogang was still alive, the red rabbit horse was seriously injured and fell to the ground neighing.
Tie Xiaogang on horseback was also overturned, Tie Xiaogang struggled to sit up, instinctively raising his gun, ready to shoot Higashikuru who was unconscious on the ground.
At this time, Tie Xiaogang no longer fantasized about catching him alive, and he would kill the lieutenant general of the devil first.
However, as soon as Tie Xiaogang raised the Type 38 Cavalry Rifle, two bullets whirled at high speed and whizzed, piercing his left and right arms almost simultaneously.
Tie Xiaogang could no longer hold the riding rifle in his hand, and with a loud tom, the riding rifle fell to the ground.
Then, Tie Xiaogang watched as more than a dozen strangely dressed devils came out of the grass and cornfields, and helped the devil lieutenant general up.
Higashikuru woke up faintly, and the first thing he saw was the face of Toshisi Okahara.
"China pig, don't touch me!" Because Okahara Junsi was covered with grass and trees, Higashikuri instinctively thought that Okahara Toshisi was Chinese, and reached out to grab the saber he was wearing at his waist, but only grabbed a scabbard, so he immediately grabbed the scabbard and hit it on Okahara Toshisi's cheek.
Xiaoluhara Junsi stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, it's me." ”
"Huh?" Only then did Higashikuhara recognize Higashikure, who had camouflage on his face, and was overjoyed in an instant, and exclaimed, "Ojihara-san, it's you?" ”
The Xiaoluyuan family has a deep relationship with the royal family, and the two have known each other since childhood.
"Hello." Xiaoluhara Junsi paused heavily and said, "It's too late to escort the lowly duty, please forgive the sin." ”
"Forgiveness? What kind of crime do you have, but I, this time I didn't listen to the advice of the little pigs, and I almost gave my life to the enemy, not to mention, and buried the entire cavalry wing, which is really an unforgivable crime! Higashikuri sighed, his mind seemed to be much clearer after this catastrophe, and he began to reflect on himself.
Kokahara Junsi said: "Your Highness can think like this, it is really a blessing for the imperial army and the empire." ”
Such a sincere word, even Xiaoluyuan Junsi dares to say it, and he will never dare to say it if he changes to others.
Higashikure Twist patted Okahara Toshihiko on the shoulder, turned over and sat up, at this time, Tie Xiaogang was also lifted by two devil soldiers and slipped in front of Higashikure Twist.
Looking at Tie Xiaogang, who was seriously injured, Higashikuri suddenly laughed.
After laughing, Higashikuri said to Okahara Junsi: "Okahara-san, there is an old saying in China, called if you don't die in a big disaster, there will be a blessing in the future, am I not a big disaster this time?" ”
"Hello." Oshihara Junsi suddenly said, "Of course, Your Highness counts this time." ”
Higashikuri smiled and said, "So, it's time for the people of China to be in trouble." ”
"Hello." Xiaoluyuan Junsi paused again and said, "This time, His Royal Highness personally led the 10th Division to sweep Dameishan, and Xu Rui and his independent regiment will definitely die." ”
Higashikuri smiled and said, "Then let's start with this branch first." ”
After speaking, Higashikuru Twist took out Kokahara Toshihiko's saber with his backhand, and aimed the tip of the knife at Tie Xiaogang's chest, but he was not in a hurry to stab into it, Higashikuru Twist looked at Tie Xiaogang with a playful look, just like when the two were chasing before, Tie Xiaogang looked at him with a playful look, he hoped to see fear in each other's eyes.
