Chapter 31: Exhausted
As soon as the connoisseur stretched out his hand, he knew if there was one. Don't look at Fang Cai, Gao Ye just made a move with the young man opposite, but with this move, Gao Ye understood that this person was definitely a top master. Gao Ye fought on weekdays, using phoenix wings and gold boring, powerful and heavy blades, and Gao Ye's strength can be imagined. But just now, Gao Ye's hard blow was easily defused by the other party, and not only that, the other party also took the opportunity to counterattack and almost took his own life. Just this hand, Gao Ye had to be careful.
The battlefield is a dangerous place, so no matter what danger you encounter, you can't exaggerate it. It's just that now, Gao Ye's hand holding the sword is already trembling a little. The arrow wound on his left shoulder, the pain became more and more intense. And the young man on the other side still maintained his posture, his hands were very steady, his sword was also very steady, and even his expression was very calm, and he didn't look like a young man in his twenties at all.
"Leave your name." Gao Ye's hoarse voice suddenly sounded, "At least, let me know what kind of person I killed today, or what kind of person I was killed by today." ”
I saw that the man was still unmoved, but his originally expressionless face frowned slightly, and his expression became solemn. In a deep and clear voice, he replied lightly, "In Xia Shia." ”
Gao Ye couldn't help but nod slightly, if it was Shi A, it would not be strange that this person had such swordsmanship. Although there are only a few records of Shi A in history, he is really one of the best swordsmen in this era. Cao Pi once mentioned in "Classics and Self-Description" that he had learned swords from Shi A, although he did not say how clever Shi A's swordsmanship was, it can be seen from the fact that he compared swords with Deng Zhan, the general of Fenwei at that time, how clever Shi A's skills were. That Deng Zhan is known as "good at having arms, knowing five soldiers, and being able to enter the white blade empty-handed", which translates to probably mean that he is clever in fists and feet, proficient in blades, and can even grab a knife empty-handed, which can be described as a well-known martial arts master, but when such a master competes with Cao Pi in the sword, he has been abused and has no skin, although it is not ruled out that there is a suspicion of releasing water, but he can still see Cao Pi's strength, and he can also see Shi A's strength.
Now that there is such a master in front of him, Gao Ye said in his heart that it would be impossible not to be nervous. Originally, the situation was already very unfavorable to him, and he rushed left and right, which originally meant to relieve the pressure in the circle formation, but now once he fights against Shi A, he will definitely have no time to be distracted, and when the time comes, he is only afraid that Pei Yuanshao's side will be under more pressure. But it's unrealistic not to fight, even if you retreat, won't Shi Ah follow? With his strength, he is afraid that as soon as he shows his back, he will face a situation of ten deaths.
Gao Ye's mind turns a thousand times, but this is the battlefield, and the battlefield is a place that can never be thought about. Gao Ye didn't move, and Shi Ah didn't move, but the other soldiers around couldn't hold back their hearts to seal their wives and shadows, and the two pawns sneaked up from behind Gao Ye and attacked suddenly. The two spears were thrust out by the two of them, and they even brought a sound of breaking wind.
But if you can kill Gao Ye in such a simple way, then Gao Ye has really been on the battlefield for twenty years. Gao Ye didn't even look back, just a change of footsteps, and dodged the two spears behind him, and even raised his sword and fell, cutting the neck of one of them. It's just that Gao Ye's eyes didn't even glance at it, and he still stared at Shi A in front of him.
Sure enough, as soon as Gao Ye moved, Shi Ah moved immediately. Gao Ye's hand raised and fell, and Shi A's sword also stabbed out towards Gao Ye. The speed of this sword was so fast that Gao Ye didn't even have time to kill another sneak attacker, so he had to raise his sword to block it. Without blocking a sword, Gao Ye took a step back, and Shi Ah followed further, and another sword stabbed out. Shi Ah shot quickly, but only ten breaths, stabbed out twenty-one swords in a row, and Gao Ye retreated twenty-one steps.
Twenty-one moves in a row, Gao Ye couldn't even fight back, he could only defend, which was an unprecedented first for Gao Ye. It wasn't until the twenty-second move that Gao Ye barely stabilized his position, the horizontal sword in his left hand was a sword blade of Shi A, and the vertical sword in his right hand directly stabbed Shi A's left flank. The sword stabbed out, and for the first time, a solemn look appeared on Shi A's face. Gao Ye's sword seems to be ordinary, it seems to be out of order, it seems that it can be blocked as long as it is blocked. But Shi A found that Gao Ye's sword edge was to the right, pointing obliquely under his right rib. Once he swings his sword to block, Gao Ye's sword will inevitably stab his right ribs, and at that time, the door will be wide open, and it will be impossible to save it. Between the lightning and flint, Shi A's right wrist flicked, and he opened Gao Ye's horizontal sword, and jumped backwards and jumped straight two steps. Such a good opportunity, how can I let it go in the night! Shi A retreated, Gao Ye naturally stepped to keep up, and the longitudinal sword stabbed Shi A's heart, Shi A's long sword was handed forward, and the plane intersection was smashing on Gao Ye's sword spine, and the long sword in Gao Ye's hand suddenly sank, and he had to collect the sword and attack again. For a while, the two of you came and went, but they fought an even match.
Gao Ye's side can be regarded as holding a steady foot, and Pei Yuanshao's side can be described as a mountain of pressure. Originally, the number was not superior, but now there is no Gao Ye to help them ease the enemy's offensive, there are enemies on all sides, and there are no long weapons in their hands. Although it is the elite of the elite, it still can't stop the opponent's crowd tactics. There are two thousand enemies, and if one dies, ten men will continue to attack. But for the Guards, one death will be one less, and ten deaths will drop by two percent. Over there, Gao Ye and Shi A have fought back and forth for more than 30 rounds, and on Pei Yuanshao's side, there are less than 40 people alive, and Pei Yuanshao himself is also covered with knife wounds.
To tell the truth, there is not a single person who is still alive without injuries, knife wounds, arrow wounds, and gunshot wounds abound. Dozens of people faced the attack of a battalion of soldiers and horses, and it was actually a miracle that they had been killed so far. But it wasn't until the other party took out the black technology of fire oil bombs that the soldiers and horses really felt fear. Of course, the oil bomb here is not a petrol bomb of later generations, and even the oil placed in it is not fire oil, but animal fat. It's just that the winter weather is dry, and countless clay pots filled with grease are thrown into the military formation, and a torch is enough to completely collapse the formation.
Gao Ye is still fighting with Shi A, but his mind is no longer on Shi A. From the moment the fire appeared, Gao Ye even felt that he was really going to send his life here today. was distracted, and there was another scar on his left arm. Shi A's swordsmanship is indeed excellent, and he has fought dozens of rounds with him, and in general, he is indeed down, which can be seen from the fact that there are more scars on his body than on Shi A's body.
Shi A's swordsmanship made Gao Ye inexplicably think of Ah Fei in the ancient dragon, his swordsmanship was the same as Ah Fei, almost only stabbing and no chopping action. And it's extremely fast, even Takaya has to concentrate to barely keep up with his sword moves. The attack of the fire oil bomb really distracted Gao Ye completely, and for a while, Gao Ye had a few more wounds on his body. After a move, Gao Ye jumped forward, took three steps and made two steps, and moved closer to the military formation on his side, and shouted at the same time: "Don't panic, get closer!" ”
Before Gao Ye's words fell, he turned his head to look at Pei Yuanshao, who was smashed on his body by an oil can, the clay pot shattered, the grease burst out, and the flames on the ground made Pei Yuanshao a burning man almost in an instant. The roar of pain was particularly harsh to sound in the high night. Especially when Gao Ye saw that Pei Yuanshao, who was covered in fire, actually rushed directly into the enemy army, and threw the two enemies to the ground, Gao Ye himself didn't feel it, and tears actually flowed out of Gao Ye's eyes.
The sword blade of Shi A behind him arrived again, anxious, angry, and crazy Gao Ye'er heard the sound of the wind, threw the sword directly on the ground with his left hand, suddenly turned around and grabbed Shi A's sword directly with his left hand, and the sword in his right hand was directly slashed at Shi A's head, and suddenly the sword in Shi A's hand couldn't be pulled out. Gao Ye was already exerting himself, Shi A's push, Gao Ye was caught off guard, and the tip of the sword was pointed directly at his throat. As a last resort, Gao Ye had to put away his sword and leap backwards. Shi A dissolved Gao Ye's move, and when he saw Gao Ye retreating, he was pressing step by step, and continued to send the sword forward. Gao Ye's right hand sword was a wreath in front of him, and Shi A's sword collapsed, but his left hand had already taken out a flying locust stone from his arms, and hit Shi A's face door with his hand.
It's just that Gao Ye still has an arrow in his left shoulder, and his left hand is injured again, and the accuracy of his hand is greatly reduced. But just this moment, it also made Shi A's chest ache, screamed, and hurriedly swung his sword and retreated, keeping a distance from Gao Ye. Gao Ye took advantage of this time to return to his guards again. It's a pity that there are only thirteen people left.
Thirteen is a very unlucky number in the eyes of foreigners, and now for Gao Ye, it seems that it really wants to confirm this. Thirteen people surrounded Gao Ye, surrounded by enemies, and this battle seemed to have no hope for Gao Ye's side.
Fourteen people and I don't know how many people were confronting, Gao Ye did not give the order to attack, and the opposite side did not dare to make a move. In this situation, Gao Ye suddenly said: "I'm afraid that you are going to go to the Netherworld with me today, are you afraid?" The ear heard the deafening word "not afraid", and the loud laughter of the high night was endless, and the laughter was even louder: "What about the fate today, there are many hardships and battles in life." The lyrics and songs of Quantai recruit the old department, and the banner of 100,000 kills Yama! Even if you die, go to some underworld, Lao Tzu can take you to kill a piece of the sky! ”
"Okay, good, Gao Mingxi deserves to be Gao Mingxi, even if the mountains and rivers are exhausted, he can have such a pride! If it weren't for your great rebellion, you and I would have become close friends, a pity, a pain! Today is about to lose another hero! ”
