Chapter 17: Jindi Pass (3)

Jindi Pass, located in the Yellow River in Bawangcheng Village, Guangwu Town, Xingyang City, Henan Province.

It is named after the Guancheng on the 'Golden Causeway' built in the Han Dynasty, and it is also a gateway to Xingyang adjacent to the south bank of the Yellow River.

In the twilight of summer, Niu Zhukou Ying Yanglang stood Pei Xingyan on the Guancheng, looking at the big river that was rolling east, and his heart was so bored. Nowadays, all parts of Xingyang are frequently plundered by ant thieves. Although the Wagang ant thieves are powerful, in Pei Xingyan's eyes, they are still a group of rabble. But it was these insignificant ant thieves that made Yang Qing, the county guard of Xingyang County, tremble, and he didn't even dare to go out of the city to face the battle. The six major military mansions, with a total of nearly 10,000 lives, watched the ant thieves arrogant and helpless.

How could the arrogant Pei Xingyan swallow this bad breath?

But Yang Qing is not only the magistrate of Xingyang, but also the governor of Xingyang, and has the right to control military affairs. Therefore, even if the six military mansions are directly subordinate to the Twelve Guard Mansions, they must obey Yang Qing's orders...... Unless, the general of the Twelve Guards personally issued an order, accompanied by the emperor's edict, the six major military governments could not be controlled by Yang Qing and respond to the battle on their own. But that possibility is too small!

Anyway, Yang Qing is also a clan.

Even if the general of the Twelve Guards Mansion was willing to give an order, Yang Tong, the king of Yue who stayed in Luoyang, would categorically not agree and issued an edict.

Because in this way, how can the face of the clan remain?

"Fu Jun, it's so hot, the ant thieves won't attack easily.

Besides, Jindi Pass is heavily guarded, and even if the ant thieves dare to come, it will only be in vain to send them to death. On such a hot day, why don't you rest and rest? ”

The person who spoke was Niu Zhukou Eagle Strike Lang General Zheng Tingxiang.

However, this Zheng is not Xingyang Zheng. Zheng Tingxiang is a native of Jiyin County, whose ancestral home is wrong, and he is a local gentry and wealthy family, and he was born in three grades.

Pei Xingyan couldn't stand the heat, so he nodded in agreement.

After he walked down the city gate, he made two large bowls of ice water in the big tent, which more or less subtracted some of the heat. But as soon as the heat subsided, it was replaced by a wave of sleepiness. So he took off his armor, and put on only a single garment, and lay down in the back tent and slept with his clothes.

This night, I only slept until the west mountain.

After waking up, Pei Xingyan asked the generals to prepare dinner, while he sat in the military tent and wiped the steel knife.

At this time, Zheng Ting was like a big man, and hurriedly broke into the big tent, "Fujun, Xingze was attacked by ant thieves, and General Xin sent someone to ask for help. ”

"What?"

Pei Xing got up with a sigh, his eyes widened and said, "Xingze was attacked?" ”

"Exactly."

"Zheng Tingxiang, order a regiment of soldiers, carry a hammer and prepare a horse."

Xingze and Jindiguan are closely connected.

Xin Wenli and Pei Xingyan also have a very good personal relationship. Therefore, when Pei Xingyan heard that Xingze was attacked, he didn't say a word, and he wanted to help.

Ant thieves have always been wild raiders.

Although villages and towns are occasionally attacked, this is the first time that they have openly attacked the county seat in broad daylight.

Zheng Tingxiang hurriedly stopped, "Fujun, don't do it." The county guard has an order, and the soldiers and horses of each prefecture strictly guard the city pass, and they are not allowed to attack without authorization. If the prince wants to rescue General Xin, he should also notify the county guard first, and get the permission of the county guard before he can attack...... Besides, the ant thief's situation is unknown, and if he dares to rescue, he is afraid that he will be ambushed. Please also ask the prince to think twice, and order the scout to inquire about Xingze first. ”

When Pei Xingyan heard this, he was immediately furious.

"This is a military rescue, and it has nothing to do with the locality...... If he waited for the county guard to agree, Xingze was afraid that he would have been attacked by ant thieves.

General Xin and I have always been friendly, how can I stand idly by? Since the ant thieves dare to attack the county seat, they are sure that they will come. If I don't save General Xin, won't I be unjust to my friends? You don't have to talk about this matter, I will go to Xingze to rescue, you just need to strictly guard the city pass. ”

"But ......"

Zheng Tingxiang wanted to persuade again, but when he saw Pei Xingyan's eyes, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

Seeing that Zheng Tingxiang no longer persuaded him, Pei Xingyan didn't care about him.

He personally ordered a regiment of soldiers and horses, and his own personal guard of 200 people, a total of 600 soldiers, rushed out of Jindi Pass, and rushed in the direction of Xingze.

From Jindiguan to Xingze, that is, more than half a mile.

Pei Xingyan was so anxious that he kept urging the soldiers to speed up along the way, and he had already crossed Jishui after dark, and when it was almost ugly, he could see the traces of Xingze County. However, the soldiers were sweating profusely after running down this road and the hot weather.

Don't talk about the soldiers, even Pei Xingyan felt that his mouth was dry.

Seeing that there was a dense forest on the side of the road ahead, Pei Xingyan ordered to rest at the edge of the forest, drink some water, rest for a while, and then set off. Otherwise, if you keep rushing like this, even if you arrive in Xingze, you will be sleepy and tired, and you will not be able to fight again. It's better to take a break and travel before it's too late.

"Take a break with a stick of incense, everyone drink some water and take a breath.

However, weapons shall not be taken out of their hands, and horses shall not be unsaddled...... After setting off after a stick of incense, he dared to delay and was punished for the crime of delaying the military plane, and he was beheaded on the spot. ”

Pei Xingyan has always been known for his clear words in military law, so no one in his command dared to refute the words he said.

Everyone sat down at the edge of the forest, some went to find water, and wiped the sweat from their bodies. Pei Xingyan also jumped off the horse, gently patted the huge head of the red charcoal fire dragon horse, and then took off his helmet and brushed away the sweat on his face.

Fuck, this kind of dog weather...... Aren't those ant thieves afraid of the heat?

A pro-soldier general came over with a water bag, "Fujun, drink some water." ”

Pei Xingyan didn't say a word, took the water bag, and there was a burst of binge drinking. His mouth was dry, he hung the water bag on his horse, and was just about to put on his helmet when he heard the sound of war drums in the woods. Followed by a group of people and horses from the forest to kill the general, as the first general, the crotch of the black horse, in the palm of a gold-topped jujube yang lance. I saw him on a horse, his eyes wide with anger, and his beard was open.

"Pei Xingyan, your second master has been waiting for a long time again, and he still doesn't take his life!"

People are like tigers going down the mountain, and horses are like dragons going out to sea. said that it was too late, it was fast, and the second master had already rushed to Pei Xingyan. The big lance in his hand was opened, and there was a sharp wind, and he swept through thousands of troops with a single move, and hit Pei Xingyan. Pei Xingyan did not ride a horse at this time, and the double hammer was also hung on the horse. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two generals rushed over. The long knife is danced in the hand, and the bell holds the big lance.

But the frame is framed, but the huge force on the lance shook the two generals and burst into tears, dripping with blood.

The long knife could no longer be grasped, and the bell fell to the ground.

Shan Erye was on the horse, taking advantage of the situation to make a move of the green dragon to probe the claws, the gold-topped jujube yang lance trembled, leaned out with a stab, and killed a general in front of the horse. Then with a slight shake of the arm, the big lance pulled out the corpse. The backhand was opened, and the snap was knocking on the top of the head of another general, only to hit that general, and his brain burst.

However, it was at this moment that Pei Xingyan had already turned over and taken off the double hammer.

"The dog thief dares to kill my retainers and eat me with a hammer."

The red charcoal fire dragon foal Xi Yuyu hissed violently, and rushed towards Shan Erye.

The two horses looked at each other, Pei Xingyan suddenly stood up, raised the fire with two hammers and burned the sky, and the wheel opened with a muffled sound, and smashed into the other party.

Shan Erye is also a fierce general, and when he saw the sledgehammer coming, he didn't dodge.

I saw that he was angry and dantian, his feet were locked to the stirrups, and the horizontal lance was raised outward, and a thunderous roar came out of his mouth: "Open!" ”

Clang......

The hammer fell on the big lance, and Wu Ma Xi Yu screamed violently, and he retreated more than a dozen steps in a row. And Second Master Shan was even more smashed by Pei Xingyan's hammer, and he was dizzy. His hands trembled violently, his mouth was bloody, and he almost couldn't hold the big lance in his hand. His gold-topped jujube lance, which was more than 60 catties, was also smashed into two sections. looked at Pei Xingyan in shock, and couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart: What a Pei Laohu!

At this time, the enemy army was killed in one place with Hefu soldiers.

The soldiers ran all the way, their mouths dry. As soon as they breathed a sigh of relief, these thieves came out. In a completely unprepared situation, as soon as the two sides clashed, the Sui army suffered nearly 100 casualties. However, after all, he is a battle-hardened and well-trained soldier. After a moment of panic, Sui Jun quickly calmed down. Formed a formation on the spot, in groups of three or five, and instantly set up a circle formation, entangled with the thieves.

In the dark night, it is not clear how many of these thieves there are, but it is roughly estimated that there are thousands of them.

Even if the thieves are outnumbered, they can fight to a tie with the Sui army. On the edge of the woods, shouts of killing came and went, and swords and guns collided, making a piercing sound. Pei Xingyan saw that the enemy was about to lose, where was he willing to let go of the opponent. He urged the horse to charge again, and the double hammer was divided to the left and right, and roared: "Dog thief, Hugh go." ”

At this moment, a cold arrow flew out of the forest.

Pei Xing was caught off guard and was almost shot by a cold arrow. Hurriedly reined in the war horse, and was about to look into the forest, but saw two thief generals, one left and one right, one made the horse lance, and the other was the same as Pei Xingyan, dancing with a double hammer.

"Who will be the thief?"

"Dong'a Cheng Zhijie, Pei Xing wants to be rampant, look at the lance."

The thief who made the lance fall the words to the people, and the big lance in his hand was as fast as a meteor lightning, and the brush stabbed at Pei Xingyan.

The speed of the thrust, too fast...... Quickly made Pei Xingyan almost stabbed. Fortunately, the red charcoal fire dragon foal under his crotch sensed a hint of danger and dodged sideways, letting go of the lance. But Cheng Zhijie had already arrived in front of Pei Xingyan, and the big lance in his palm was like a storm, stabbing wildly. A lance is as fast as a lance, a lance is as strong as a lance, the lance is connected, and more than ten lances are stabbed out in the blink of an eye, but it flies like a lance.

The stabbing is one of the basic moves of the horse lance.

This Cheng Zhijie has obviously practiced such a simple trick to the point of being superb.

Pei Xingyan blocked left and right, quite embarrassed. After the second horse pedaled wrongly, he was about to turn the horse's head, but he saw a big black man facing him, wielding a double hammer, and he came to him.

"A certain Zhai Mohou specializes in fighting tigers."

The hammer pierced the ears and swept over.

For Cheng Zhijie's stormy attack, Pei Xingyan, a person who wins by strength, may be difficult to deal with. But he is not afraid of opponents who also win by strength. The other party's double hammer swept over, Pei Xingyan snorted coldly, a Erlang Danshan, a double hammer outward, only listening to the bell...... After a loud bang, the Red Charcoal Fire Dragon Pony took a few steps back, and Pei Xingyan's arm was numb. However, Zhai Mohou's condition seemed to be even more miserable, his arms trembled, and he dismounted his crotch and retreated more than ten steps before he could be regarded as stabilizing his heels.

At this time, Shan Erye also changed to a big lance, and fought Pei Xingyan with Cheng Zhijie.

Zhai Mohou watched the battle from the sidelines, and it was a hammer to steal the cold man. These three people all have the courage of a tiger, and Pei Xingyan is brave and invincible, and he can't help but be a little embarrassed. Cheng Zhijie and the three of them formed a circle and trapped Pei Xingyan in the center. In the blink of an eye, dozens of rounds have passed, and Pei Xingyan is also slanted in armor.

These guys are clearly coming at themselves!

Pei Xingyan knew that he couldn't fight like this anymore, and he couldn't help but retreat.

Suddenly, a cold and deep shout sounded in his ears: "Pei Laohu, look at the arrow!" ”

The bowstring sounded, and a cold light shot towards Pei Xingyan.

From the strength of the cold arrow, Pei Xingyan sensed that this was the guy who had fired the cold arrow at him before. He pendulum slammed into the arrow, but he didn't want two cold lights to fly from left to right. At the same time, Shan Erye, Cheng Zhijie and Zhai Mohou pounced at the same time, Pei Xingyan had no choice but to hide in one stirrup, so that Cheng Zhijie and Shan Erye's big lance broke Zhai Mohou's double hammer with one hammer, and the other hammer knocked off a cold arrow.

As soon as he sat down, a cold light flashed in front of him.

A sharp arrow appeared as if out of thin air, striking him right in the shoulder.

"Arrows?"

Pei Xingyan endured the pain, opened his mouth to bite the shaft of the arrow, and pulled out the sharp arrow, "Thief general, report your name!" ”

At the edge of the woods, a white-robed general with a horizontal spear and a bow in his hand. Hearing Pei Xingyan's question, he showed an elegant smile.

"Below, Jiyang Wang Bodang!"
