Chapter 53: Seeing the Battlefield in the Rivers and Lakes (2)
"No, brother, I can't ...... I will always depend on you to save. Liu Xiu's expression and tone were as firm as categorical: "If you don't leave, then I will never leave!" ”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Liu Xiu raised the horsewhip in his hand high and was about to pull it down, but Liu Xiu still clung to the reins, and looked at Liu Xiu with wide eyes.
"The one who wants to win the world is my brother. If my brother dies, what is the point of my life? I will never let go of the reins unless I cut off my hand! ”
Liu Xiu's eyes were as clear as water.
Liu Jiu was already anxious. The sound of hooves in the distance was getting closer and closer, but he didn't know what to do with his brother.
Don't...... Really want to cut off his hands?
The soldiers behind him suddenly erupted into a roaring commotion.
"Finally...... Collapsed? Liu Xuan's heart jumped, and he suddenly looked back.
If morale collapses at this juncture, there is really no room for recovery.
However, what Liu Xuan saw when he turned his head was not a collapsed soldier, but a soldier in ecstasy, no longer walking towards the bridge in a neat queue, but rushing to the middle of the river.
Huangchun Water is not a big river, but it is still nearly ten zhang wide, and the water flow is turbulent. Doing so is no different from suicide!
Liu Xuan was about to stop drinking, but he heard the wild shouts of soldiers from the opposite side.
"It's broken!! Huang Chunshui broke off!! ”
Liu Xiu felt the three marks on the back of his neck suddenly become hot.
These three marks had a vision again, as if a huge and vast force was about to rush out of his body.
He and Liu Jiu were stunned for a moment, glanced at each other, and then ran towards the river together.
Just the first time he saw it, the blood in Liu Xuan's whole body gushed on the top of his head.
Even though it was winter and the water was not abundant, just a few moments ago, the river was still raging. Now, as far as the eye can see, only a bare riverbed is exposed to the moonlight, and even the pebbles at the bottom of the river can be seen clearly.
All the soldiers had given up lining up to get on the bridge, but jumped down the river and ran to the opposite side.
"This ...... This can't be ......" Liu Xiu shook his head in disbelief and muttered to himself.
Liu Xiu took a deep breath before calming down, turned his head to look at Liu Xiu, and said slowly: "Why is it impossible?" ”
"Don't forget, Ah Xiu, I'm a man with a destiny!"
"Cross the river! The whole army crosses the river! Without waiting for Liu Xiu to answer, Liu Xiu had already shouted towards the cavalry queue behind him. Although the distance was far away and he didn't know what was happening, Liu Ji only knew how to carry out the lord's orders, and led the cavalry to run towards the river bank.
"Give up the defense and cross the river." Liu Ji ordered sharply. However, when he saw the riverbed that had completely cut off the flow of water, Liu Ji's expression was even more sluggish than that of Liu Ji, until Liu Ji punched him in the back of the head, and he came to his senses: "But...... Top dog! The pursuers behind are almost there...... The river is broken, and we can cross it, and so can they. The soldiers in front of them did not have any formation, and even if they crossed the river, they were still ......."
"Do what I say and don't talk nonsense." Liu Ji glared at Liu Ji fiercely, and turned his head to look at the cavalry of the New Army who were rushing behind him.
The sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and Liu Jiu could even see the dirt raised by the hooves splashing everywhere.
"Let's bet on it, if I'm really a child of Destiny...... Then the cavalry of the new army will never have a chance to cross the river! ”
Liu Xuan muttered to himself, then jerked his crotch and got off his horse, and galloped towards the river.
"Brother! What are you doing?! Liu Xiu watched in disbelief as Liu Xiu rushed into the river and towards the bottom of the wooden bridge.
Liu Xiu did not answer Liu Xiu, but rode his horse into the river and went straight to the wooden bridge. As he approached the wooden bridge, the long knife at his waist had been drawn and clenched tightly in his hand.
With an angry shout, Liu Jiu's whole body strength had been gathered on his right arm, and his eyes were staring at the nearest bridge pillar in front of him.
"Give it to me...... Break! ”
Passing under the bridge, the long knife used its horsepower to gather all the strength of the body and slash forward. The blade broke through the air, brought out a thunderous sound, and slashed hard at the bridge pillar.
Although the bridge pillar was the thickness of a person's hug, under Liu Xuan's full force with the help of Ma Su's sword, it snapped and broke in response.
However, the war horse under Liu Xuan's crotch did not stop at all, and continued to move forward, rushing straight to the next bridge pillar.
Another roar, another slash, another snap.
When Liu Jiu arrived on the other side of the river, the bridge pillars on the side of the wooden bridge that were originally across the river had all been broken under Liu Jiu's long knife, which was like a landslide.
Liu Ji was already stunned. Even though he had always prided himself on his strength, it was completely beyond his imagination to cut these five pillars in one charge.
Own boss...... Is it really still human!
And Liu Ji, who rushed to the opposite bank, slowly turned his horse's head at this time, and let go of his voice towards Liu Ji and roared: "Cross the river!" ”
At the same time that Liu Jiu shouted, the wooden bridge, which had lost its support, also made a creaking and twisting sound.
Then, the wooden bridge, which had been firmly across the river, collapsed in the air, breaking like a dragon that had suddenly lost its life, and fell heavily into the center of the river, making a terrifying loud noise, splashing a remnant of water and silt.
Liu Ji shook his head heavily, and it was easy to hold back the horror in his chest, and led the cavalry to gallop towards the other side of the river.
