Huo Yi's men and horses still left the post house in the middle of the night, looked for the official road, bypassed the city of Qu Ninja, and went straight to the White Emperor City.

As soon as the thin man got out of the city gate, he received news from his subordinates who had been placed in the post house, and Huo Yi went out overnight to White Emperor City by land.

This man was shocked, could it be that Huo Yi had discovered the intentions of his group? Hurriedly turned around and walked back to the county office, to report the news. This county made Du Chong even more shocked when he got the message, you must know that Huo Yi has a very high status in Shuzhong, if he really knows his own details, I am afraid that he will have nothing to stay here.

"My lord, how is it good?" The thin man was obviously not a person who could make up his mind, and in his panic he put all his hopes on this person who seemed to be very calm and appropriate.

Du Chong has been a county magistrate for several years, has seen a little bit of the world, and after the special training in the north, he is also very calm, and said loudly: "Don't panic! There are no more than 100 county officials in my county, which are not as good as the elite cavalry under Huo Yi's command, and the garrison near the dock outside the city has some manpower, but most of them do not listen to my dispatch. If this Huo Yi knew my details, how could he let me go? Leaving quietly in the middle of the night? ”

When the thin man saw that Du Chong had some truth, he also calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "The Lord is wise!" But Lord, this Huo Yi took the land route, I'm afraid that our strategy will not be very effective, if Huo Yi is released to Jingzhou, I'm afraid that the situation in Xiangfan will be even more tense, how can we make contributions? Besides, we took the stronghold of White Emperor City, and it was also Huo Yi's men, he would be able to find out about us sooner or later, my lord, we must do it first to keep our credit! ”

Du Chong looked at the thin man and closed his eyes slightly: "Alas, it's late." Huo Yi's subordinates are all elite horses, and there are only some chariots in our county, and the horsepower of the horses is not as abundant as the military horses. Even if you can catch up, with these county officials in my county who can only run rampant in the township. How can you fight Huo Yi's close guards? How can I stop Huo Yi? ”

The thin man's eyes were also gloomy when he heard this, and suddenly lit up again: "Lord, don't panic!" I know a shortcut, but I can go over the mountain to the near side of the official road, and I know a character who can walk through the Yang in a hundred steps, as long as I can give him property, he can help me and wait. Shoot that guy, so that the merit can be saved? ”

Du Chong's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Okay! Prepare enough goods and seek the man. Let's set off, you and I went to take Huo Yi's life together, so that I can protect you in front of General Cao, and you will enjoy endless wealth! ”

The thin man's eyes narrowed into a slit when he heard this: "Thank you Lord for your cultivation." Without further ado, let's set out to find that man! He is a hunter, and his home is near the mountain road, but it is also convenient! ”

Du Chong took a sharp sword and called his henchmen. Prepare the wealth, go out of the county office, and go straight to the mountain road in the north of the city.

said that this Huo Yi came out of the post house and traveled all the way.

I have passed by the city many times before, most of them are waterways, this land route is the first time to go, it is not very familiar with the area of this Qinren, the official road of the White Emperor City is close to the mountains, the layers are clear, and it is very dangerous. Huo Yi turned all the way into the mountain road but already realized that something was wrong, this mountain range near the left was very gloomy, and under the moonlight, Huo Yi felt even more ominous in his heart.

"Youming, have the scouts ever been rewarded?" Huo Yi looked back at Ye Ji beside him.

"No, it's not yet time to return, but it's almost time to return!" The scouts under Huo Yi's command have a strict reporting mechanism, and most of the scouts go out to explore the enemy as small groups, and every once in a while, regardless of whether the enemy is found, one person will report the situation, which is also to prevent the occurrence of the situation that the scouts are annihilated and cannot be reported.

Guan Xing said: "Brother Yi, are you too cautious, this is the hinterland of my Shuzhong, should there be any situation!" ”

Zhao Tong had a calm personality and said in a deep voice: "Senior brother always teaches us to be cautious in case of trouble, not to mention that the situation in Jingzhou is delicate now, and some precautions are not a bad thing. ”

Guan Xing nodded, shook his head and drove away the sleepiness: "Brother Yi, why don't I take a dozen brothers to explore forward!" ”

Huo Yi shook his head and said loudly: "No need, it is taboo to divide troops at this time, tell the brothers to maintain the battle formation, the outer knights hold shields slowly, and the inner armor soldiers prepare crossbows." ”

"Whoa!" A guard on his side will turn around and give the order.

The horses of the crowd suddenly descended, and 120,000 cautiously moved forward slowly. Ye Zhi has been estimating the time for the scout's return, and after a while, Ye Zhi said in a deep voice: "Young master, the scout has not returned, I am afraid that he has been poisoned." ”

Huo Yi nodded, and said coldly: "If someone raids in a while, I will be in front of the attack, and An Guo and Boyuan will be behind." Young Ming, you lead the crossbowman and focus on killing and injuring enemies on both sides! ”

"Whoa!" Everyone agreed.

A group of horsemen slowly marched in the official road surrounded by mountains, the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and the mountains in this night were like a prehistoric beast, which made people suffocate.

"Prepare a crossbow!" In the end, Ye Zhi still discovered the enemy in advance, and the mountain wind in front brought the sound of the armor colliding with the sword, although it was extremely subtle, but Ye Zhi, who was born with a deaf ear, still discovered the enemy in the first period.

Huo Yi's knights on both sides were holding shields and halberds in their hands, Huo Yi hung in front of him with a gun, and said coldly: "Charge!" ”

In the steep mountains, I suddenly remembered the sound of hooves that shook the sky, and Huo Yi's men and horses swept over this particularly steep mountain road like a hurricane.

The archers in ambush on the cliffs on both sides of the mountain road had not even had time to set up their bows, and Huo Yi's men and horses had already rushed out of their range, and the few feathered arrows that were shot were also blocked by Huo Yi's knights with shields.

Huo Yi's men and horses rushed over the mountain road like a dragon, but they were shocked to find that the road ahead had been blocked by the rocks, and behind the rocks, dozens of black shadows stood quietly, everyone with bows and crossbows, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

Huo Yi knew that he couldn't escape from this vicious battle, so he simply suppressed the horse's speed, restrained the war horse, and said loudly: "Ma family's child!" If you can't beat it head-on, you can't say that your grandfather Huo will only do such indiscriminate means. Are you not afraid that the Lord will know about the filthy deeds behind you? ”

The dozens of black shadows were silent, and Huo Yi noticed that the ambush soldiers on the mountain walls on both sides were trying to surround his group. There is a way to strike first to be strong, and then to suffer.

Huo Yi said fiercely: "Release!" ”

The crossbowmen led by Ye Bing had been preparing for a long time, and they each took their own targets and shot at the ambushes on the mountain walls on both sides.

Before the ambush could reach their position, they were knocked down by a barrage of crossbow fire. A few of them could only hide behind rocks, and did not dare to raise their heads.

Huo Yi's soldiers were very experienced, and they never formed an intermittent attack, and hundreds of soldiers took turns to shoot. These black shadow ambush soldiers are the dead soldiers sent by the Ma family, but these dead soldiers are fighting alone, all elites, not these soldiers under Huo Yi's command can be hostile, but in terms of coordinated operations, Huo Yi's personal guard battalion can throw them eight streets.

The dead soldiers of the Ma family, who had no intention of confronting Huo Yi head-on, were only mobilized here by water in a panic, and even many of the horses who were originally going to deal with Huo Yi were not yet in place. At this moment, only one-third of the men and horses sent by the Ma family are ambushing here.

The number of people was already in the minority, but for some reason, Huo Yi was still on guard, and a sneak attack was brutally beaten into a frontal defense.

Ma He looked at the dead soldiers around him, but he didn't know how to fight with these regular soldiers, most of the ambushes on both sides were killed, and even occupied a favorable position, but they were suppressed by the other party's firepower, and they didn't dare to shoot at these knights at all.

Huo Yi knew that the opponent was in a daze, so he rode straight to these dead soldiers, and the two generals Guan Xing and Zhao Tong behind him also led more than 100 personal guards to follow.

Huo Yi used his horsepower to go straight to the front of these black-clothed people, and these black-clothed people only had time to shoot a round of arrows, but their accuracy was extremely poor.

Huo Yi was even more sure that these people were not regular soldiers, but dead soldiers of the Ma family. It's like a tiger rushing straight up.

Ma He was overjoyed in his heart, he didn't know how to deal with this Huo Yi, but he didn't expect this guy to send it to the door by himself, you are an invincible fierce general in the world, and under the desperate death of our professional killers, you don't want to escape.

These dozens of figures jumped down from the blocking stones, bullied up, drew their respective swords and sabers, and went straight to Huo Yi.

For a while, there were swords and swords in this valley, Huo Yi was extremely smart, and the two generals in Guan and Zhao led the guards to arrive, and everyone dismounted together. Although the official road in the mountain is flat, it is extremely narrow, and the narrow place can only accommodate four horsemen in parallel.

The place blocked by these dead soldiers is also the narrowest place, the soldiers led by Huo Yi are mainly spears and halberds, all of them are long weapons, Huo Yi shouted, these soldiers suddenly formed a fish scale array, sealed the cross-section of the mountain road, with shields in front and guns in the back, slowly forcing towards the dozens of figures.

Ma He regretted seeing this, the stones blocking the road at this moment have become their nightmare, this Huo Yi is too cunning, first use himself as bait, induce himself to get down the stones that he thinks he relies on, and then seal the way with a fish scale array, and now although he is outstanding, but they are all short soldiers, how can he hurt the opponent's soldiers after the protection of this dense formation shield?

Ma He slowly closed his eyes, as a dead man, he had already realized, although this day came so abruptly.
