Chapter 42: Red Blood Stains the Green Mountains (I)

Ye Yingwu took the lead, leading five hundred cavalry to gallop quickly on the official road, and the scattered Anji soldiers could already be seen in front of him, Ye Yingwu frowned at the moment, although there were many remnants on the road, but there was no flag that could symbolize the commander, only a few broken "Song" flags, still dancing in the wind in the unyielding hunting dance.

With a hard tug on the reins, the horse man stood up, and the horses ridden by the rest of the hundred battle soldiers were originally not as powerful as the northland horses that Ye Yingwu picked one in a hundred miles under his crotch, and they were more or less left behind a distance of several zhang, so unlike Ye Yingwu who suddenly stopped his pace, they could easily stop the horses before those Anji soldiers.

Ye Yingwu swept over the faces of these tired soldiers, everyone's faces were full of dust, but those eyes were still shining, and he couldn't see the decline and loss because of risking death to break through and die for a lifetime, but as if he was burning with infinite fighting spirit, as long as they were allowed to reflexively and vigorously kill.

Yang Bao and Jiang Tie behind him had already stepped forward, Yang Bao had escaped death on the battlefield of Lianghuai, and it was already clear after a cursory glance: "General Qiyu, these soldiers seem to be new pawns who have not experienced much battle, presumably the old soldiers of the Anji army have already stayed behind to cover the retreat." ”

Ye Yingwu did not answer, but looked at the more and more soldiers, who found that there was a cavalry under the banner of the Song Army blocking the road in front, and they did not dare to force their way over, but stopped silently, and looked back behind them from time to time, where the sound of killing had gradually thinned out, and it was getting closer and closer to here.

You can faintly hear the roar of thousands of horses' hooves trampling the earth, and you can clearly smell the lingering smell of blood in the air.

"Where's the general?" Ye Yingwu subconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword and asked loudly.

The new soldiers of the Anji Army looked at each other in the face of this young general of unknown origin. A bold ten general walked out and gave a quick salute before saying: "General Qiyu, the deputy commander of the Anji Army, General Chi led the old pawns to stay in the camp, and ・・・・・・it is estimated that General Su is at the end of the team. ”

Hearing the ten generals mention Chi Chongshan, the eyes of all the Anji soldiers were dark, the reason why they can still stand here alive now is because Chi Chongshan and those Anji army veterans exchanged their lives for it.

"I'm going to find General Su, and I'll retreat to Macheng as soon as possible," Ye Yingwu frowned and ordered, hearing this, although the Anji soldiers in front looked at these with some distrust, although they were also full of dust, but the light cavalry with bright armor and bright armor, these new soldiers really had little confidence in the combat effectiveness of their own army's cavalry.

"Dare to ask the general?" The Ten General asked cautiously as he stepped away.

"The four compartments of the Tianwu Army are all commanded, Ye Yingwu." Ye Yingwu glanced at the ten generals, and went straight to the horse, and the wind that drove his words reached the ears of the soldiers, "You are a strong team in Huaishang, even if you break through, you shouldn't have such an embarrassing formation!" ”

The cavalry of the Hundred Battles City followed Ye Yingwu tightly with a straight face, not caring at all about these Anji soldiers who were standing silently in the wind.

One of the recruits waited until they were far away before sneering: "Look at these people whose jaws are about to rise to the sky, I'm afraid they don't know who they are, and when they see the Tartar cavalry, it's a good thing not to be scared!" ”

The rest of the soldiers just wanted to echo, but the ten generals who spoke just now kicked the rookie's ass and shouted coldly: "What's so funny, look at you, is there still the appearance of Anjijun?" That Ye Yuanjun is right, they are Huaishang powerhouses, and they should have elite appearance! ”

When the soldiers heard this, their hearts were stirred, and the originally scattered queue was also neatly organized, and their steps involuntarily became stronger.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The killing still hasn't subsided.

There were more than 3,000 Mongolian cavalry entangled in the army behind the Anji army, except for a small number of rangers who were not yet armoured, the rest were either wearing leather armor or even wearing iron armor, which meant that the rest of the Mongolian cavalry was not far from here.

This is just a rare small turn on the official road, the Mongol cavalry had to slow down their horses when they came here, and several tripwire ropes had been arranged in advance, which actually stopped the momentum of the Mongol cavalry charge in this wilderness.

Su Liuyi woke up from the violent turbulence not long after leaving the camp, and looked at the situation around him, and the fierce general understood what was happening, but he didn't have time to scold Chi Chongshan for making a claim, he just looked back deeply at the Anji military camp and the raging fire that came out of the shouts one after another, and then led the remaining troops of the Anji army to retreat quickly. Since Chi Chongshan forcibly asked him to save the fire of the Anji Army, he has no right to turn back and fight, which will be an insult and disappointment to the more than a thousand old soldiers who will not retreat.

At that time, the Anji army was in Huaishang, after all, there was no rare fortified city in the world like Xiangfan, which was operated by the Lu brothers for ten years, and more often relied on the natural terrain of the wild and the strong camp to fight with the Mongolian cavalry, so on the road of defending the camp and retreating, the Anji army could show the strength of its elite generals, and sending people to arrange the tripping horses in advance can be said to be a piece of cake for Su Liuyi, an old fritter on the battlefield.

At this time, Su Liu Yi was standing on a small hill that was not too big on the side of the road, and hundreds of personal soldiers were guarding him inside and out, and the sight here was not good, but he could just see the Mongolian cavalry in the front row that was adjusting the horse's head, and how many were really invisible behind.

However, Su Liuyi was only here to temporarily command the interception battle, and he didn't want to stick to this open official road and a hill with only some shrubs and weeds, so it was understandable to find a low hill.

Another tripping cord pulled up, and more than a dozen horsemen screamed and fell. However, this is already the last stumbling rope, and there is no waiting for the Anji soldiers who are ambushed in the barren grass to rush forward to kill the Mongolian cavalry who have fallen into the stars, and there is a team of 100 people behind them who cut up diagonally to block their way.

Su Liuyi quietly watched the one-sided slaughter in front of him, his fists clenched tightly, and the soldiers around him had closed their eyes in pain, only the general was still bright, but the reason for his dazzling eyes was because of the flames burning in his eyes.

"General, if you don't leave, the Tartars will come up." One of the soldiers pointed his head at the Mongol cavalry who had overcome the stumbling rope and was getting closer and closer, and his voice trembled involuntarily, and it was difficult to hide the panic in his heart.

In the face of the rolling black wave, if there is a camp or a rejection of the saber cart, they are not afraid, but now they have even run out of bows and crossbows, and the relatively thin southern soldiers in light armor stepped forward to fight, just to send the head.

"This blood debt will have to be repaid sooner or later." Su Liuyi burst out coldly, turned around and walked down the hill. At the foot of the hill, more than a dozen soldiers had already arranged the tripwire, and these soldiers who were about to stay to pull the tripwire already knew their fate from what happened to their companions not far away, their faces were a little pale, and their bodies trembled a little, but no one chose to give up and choose to leave.

They are fighting for a glimmer of life for their companions in front of them with their lives.

Even if there is little hope, give it your all.

The Mongolian cavalry, who was wantonly chasing and killing Anji's sergeants not far away just now, had already approached the bottom of the hill where Su Liuyi was in an instant, and this was Su Liuyi who had just walked to the foot of the hill! The three hundred personal guards drew their swords and shields almost at the same time, and a snowy sword light shone brightly, and everyone gritted their teeth.

"Whew!" With a sound, the thick tripwire was pulled straight up, and the Mongolian cavalry that had just accelerated was caught off guard, and the first row had already fallen to the ground, perhaps because they had just learned a lesson, and the cavalry behind was not as close as the cavalry in front of them when they charged, but a distance of several zhang away, so that they could calmly wait for their companions in front to fall and then gallop through their gaps.

"Kill!" Su Liuyi suddenly shouted, the saber in his hand came out of the sheath, and the fierce general in the army flashed out directly from the layers of personal protection.

"Dang!" With a bang, Su Liuyi skillfully opened the oncoming saber, and did not raise the knife to slash upward, but bent his body slightly, and the sharp saber easily cut off the two horse's hooves. The Mongolian cavalryman didn't have time to exclaim, and his whole body had already flown out, hitting a simple knife straight on.

With a flash of the sword, the Mongolian cavalryman, who was still in mid-air, was cut in two, and hot blood and colorful entrails fell from the sky and sprinkled the ground, staining the grass and dirt red. The one who suddenly came out with the knife was the head of the guard who was still pale and a little frightened just now, but at this time, he looked at the blood beads rolling on the knife, and his feet were stuck to the ground like nails, and he didn't even move.

After this moment of distraction, all the pro-soldiers had already reacted, and the shouts were endless, and three hundred people killed the Mongolian cavalry that was about to approach them at the same time. The shield faced the snowy saber, and the short knife in his hand stabbed the vital parts of the horses under the crotch of the Mongolian cavalry like Su Liuyi, causing those cavalry to fall off their horses, and then naturally there were soldiers with Pu knives who came up and cut them in two without hesitation.

These three hundred personal soldiers were all the elite who fought in and out of the Huaishang chaotic army, and the tacit understanding between them was needless to say, and soon three rows of cavalry fell under their simple and irresistible sword skills and pace.

But more cavalry had already been killed from behind, and the three hundred soldiers were insignificant in the mighty black wave.

"General, I can't stand it." The captain of the pro-soldier shouted as he casually cut off the head of a Mongolian cavalryman who flew into the air. And Su Liuyi, who was not far in front of him, didn't seem to hear it, just slashed forward mechanically.

The 300 pro-soldiers who had been killing just now were soon left with only about 100 people, and they had to shrink into a circle formation to hold on. Most of the soldiers without the protection of the shield have been killed, and the surviving soldiers can just use the shield in their hands to form a defensive line, but this thin defensive line is simply difficult to resist even a cup of tea.

Su Liuyi casually touched a handful of blood on his face, and sneered: "God will kill me Su Liuyi, then I will pull a few more people to accompany a certain burial!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, he roared angrily, took another step forward, and slashed off the horse's head of the cavalry in front of him.

More sabers beckoned to the burly general, and Su Liuyi casually blocked a knife, and he was powerless against the other Xueliang sabers that were slashed from all directions. The fierce general gasped and struggled to move forward, but there was still a raging flame burning in his eyes, as if he was not reconciled.

"Ahh The screams that were once familiar echoed in the ears of Su Liuyi, who no longer had the luxury of surviving in his heart, but it was so strange and so kind.

A dense rain of arrows hit several rows of cavalry in a row, including the few gathered around Su Liuyi. There was a sound of horses' hooves behind him, and more arrows whistled over Su Liuyi's head, sinking into the chest of the Mongolian cavalry rushing ahead.

"Divine Arm Crossbow?" Looking at the crossbow arrow in surprise, Su Liuyi muttered to himself.

You must know that the crossbow arrows of the Anji army have been used up, and the bows and crossbows and assault rifles have been destroyed on the spot, how can anyone suddenly shoot arrows from behind? And judging from the straight trajectory of the arrow, the one who shot the arrow must have shot it from a horse of the same height.

Reinforcements! Su Liuyi's heart suddenly remembered this unfamiliar word, and then subconsciously looked back, only to see hundreds of light horsemen rolling smoke and dust, sprinting straight in this direction, they all held crossbow machines in their hands, although the movements were a little stiff and rusty, but it did not hinder them from calmly winding and shooting.

A banner flying in the army is the word "Song".

Tianwu Army? You must know that in the surrounding state capitals, only the Tianwu Army has the status of a forbidden army, and it has an absolutely large number of cavalry in the Song army.

Su Liuyi didn't expect that the Tianwu Army would come to help at this time, but judging from the Mongolian cavalry in front of them slowing down their horses with some fear, they were also a little shocked by the sudden enemy they killed, but as the cavalry that dominated the entire Eurasian continent, the Mongolian cavalry did not allow the cavalry of any other country to challenge their authority.

The slightly slowed down horse speed was raised again, but what Ye Yingwu needed was this sudden moment! Baizhan did not crash straight into the Mongolian cavalry formation as planned, but threw the thistle terrestris in his hand at the same time.

"Boom, boom!" This extraordinarily primitive grenade caused a series of explosions, kicking up smoke and dust on the official road. The oncoming Mongolian cavalry was suddenly frightened, almost all of them subconsciously pulled the reins fiercely in front of the sky-rushing fire and dust, and through the flying smoke and dust, you could clearly hear the neighing of war horses and the shouting and scolding of Mongolian cavalry not far away because of the fright.

Didn't pay attention to these close enemies at all, or from the beginning, he didn't plan to use the eggs of his recruits who had been on the horse for a few days to fight the Mongolian cavalry, and with a successful blow, Ye Yingwu calmly turned the horse's head, Su Liuyi was stunned for a moment, didn't care about thanking him, and led the remaining soldiers to run south quickly. The rest of the cavalry of the Hundred Battles quickly threw the short spear behind their backs into the smoke and dust, not asking for many casualties, but only to be able to confuse people's eyes and ears.

"Let's go!" Ye Yingwu roared angrily as he wound up and shot.

Although the cavalry of the Hundred Battles was a little stiff and difficult, they still successfully turned their horses' heads and chased after Su Liuyi and others to the south.
