Chapter 63: The Bloody Battle on the Riverside Is Late
On the ancient road of the remnant sun, the sound of horses' hooves stopped.
The Yellow River has just thawed, and there are still some fine pieces of ice left on the surface of the river, and under the light of the setting sun, the river water emits a shiny and fine sparkling light.
As the river bank gradually fell silent, the crushed ice was pushed by the rapids, and the sound of collision was also very clear.
Looking at the hundreds of cavalry waiting in front of him, Wang Yu let out a long sigh: Finally caught up!
With one hand, he let go of the reins of his horse, slowing him down, and with the other he removed his spear from the side of the saddle.
There was no loud roar and questioning, it was a simple action, but for the cavalry, it was not simple, they only felt a mountain pressure rushing to their faces, and their hearts were shocked.
"Boom! Boom! ”
"Squeak...... Yikes! ”
The sound of swords drawn and bowstrings twisted was incessant, and the cavalrymen were frightened.
Although many of the cavalry present were battle-hardened veterans, they knew the importance of maintaining momentum, and they also knew that they were outnumbered. But it is easier said than done, and in the face of such an opponent, they can't control themselves.
If they don't hold their weapons tightly, hold their swords horizontally in front of them, and point their bows and arrows at their opponents, they will be at a loss.
Without full confidence and certainty, who will be the first to put on a fighting posture when facing a hundred elite horsemen alone? Others do this, they don't know whether they are alive or dead, but Wang Pengju can only verify the authenticity of the legend - this person is brave and brave!
"Steady, steady! Wait until he gets close before releasing the arrows, keep in formation, don't mess around! As the main general, Bao Zhong behaved quite calmly, but he was infected by the emotions of his subordinates, and his palms were sweaty at the moment, and his back was cold.
In addition to the similar suspicion as his subordinates, he was also a little glad in his heart, fortunately, he stopped and did not continue to run. The morale of the confrontation has been suppressed like this, if you run away from the wilderness, you can't collapse for thousands of miles?
What's even more fortunate is that Wang Yu caught up alone, as long as he is not intimidated by his momentum, it is still advantageous for his side to fight after all, and the good tiger can't stand the wolves!
"He's attacking the heart! Don't be frightened by him, see clearly, he is just a person, just a little hairy child who hasn't grown into hair! Kill him, and you'll be rewarded! ”
While using various methods to boost morale, Bao Zhong still did not forget to attack Wang Yu: "Wang Pengju, what do you want to do?" Do you know who's in the car? It's Mr. Zixu! All the princes are treated as guests, but you dare to offend? In addition, Cai Zhonglang went to Beijing as an envoy, and if you come to war, aren't you afraid of harming the innocent? ”
The long wind swept across the wide surface of the river, blowing out the roar on the riverbank, which could be heard far and near, and the strong threat in it was about to come out.
In terms of kidnapping and extortion, Bao Zhong's performance was indeed very professional. In addition, his grasp of the morale of the army is also above the level, and after listening to his words, the mood of the cavalry was suddenly relaxed. That's right, there are many people on your side, and there are hostages in hand, so there is really nothing to fear.
But the next moment, they found that the attack and threat of their main general had no effect on the enemy, and only the rhythmic sound of horses' hooves responded to Bao Zhong's roar.
The dark horse's pace is still so brisk;
In the saddle, the young man's expression did not move at all, as if he had heard nothing;
And the distance between the two sides has been narrowing, and the shining long front with a little blood color is more like a silent answer......
The sense of oppression is getting stronger!
"Collapse!"
A cavalryman with a bow took the lead in resisting the pressure, and released the bowstring tremblingly, the sound of the bowstring shaking was not loud, but at this moment, it was extremely loud!
His unconscious action was like a signal, and the other archers also released their bowstrings, sending out a rain of arrows, whistling and enveloping the opposite man.
Although undirected, the salvo appeared somewhat uneven; The archers were again in a hurry, and many of the arrows were not even accurate at all.
However, Bao Zhong's soldiers are not of the same level as the soldiers of Hanoi, they are also Taishan's strong soldiers; The bow and arrow in his hand is also not a light hunting bow, but a strong bow of nearly two stones!
For the outnumbered side, long-range attacks are the biggest threat!
However, despite the sharp and poignant sound of the arrows, the results were not satisfactory.
In the face of this round of shooting, Wang Yu didn't even raise his hand, as if he had been prepared, Wu Yu stepped out of an arc gracefully and quickly, just avoiding this round of arrows.
"Death to those who raise their swords! Those who descend can atone for their sins, but those who flee will not be killed! ”
This was the first thing Wang Yu said after the encounter between the two sides. The voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone to hear clearly, and from the perspective of the battlefield situation, his words seemed to be a little indistinguishable from the situation, but among the hundreds of people present, none of them felt ridiculous.
Legend has it that in the Battle of the Tiger Prison that day, this young man was persuaded to surrender at an inopportune time, while crisscrossing the army, and finally pushed the Xiliang army into the abyss!
"Everyone rushed up together, surrounded him, and killed him!" Bao Zhong knew that he couldn't go on like this, otherwise, his morale would only get lower and lower, and it was not very beneficial for him to delay time, Wang Yu couldn't just come alone, there must be a response later!
"Kill!" The cavalry shouted in unison, raised their swords, and besieged them from all sides.
This cry not only emboldens themselves, but also inspires courage from their fellow soldiers, reminds them of their numerical superiority, and longs for the legendary reward!
"In such a hurry to die? Come on! In the face of the surging enemy, Wang Yu laughed, held the gun in one hand, and the long blade was like a dragon out of the water, first shaking his head and tail to knock away a few cold arrows, and then roaring towards the enemy who rushed to the front.
Bao Zhong was not a fierce general who was good at martial arts, and he was afraid of Wang Yu's skills, so he was afraid that he would be reused by the other party, so he would capture the king first. Therefore, he did not rush to the front in the first place, but hid far at the end, while ordering his subordinates to come forward to besiege and observe the enemy's situation.
In his opinion, Wang Yu held a gun in one hand, and looked a little overbearing, as if he didn't take the more than 100 cavalry in front of him to heart at all. Bao Zhong sneered secretly, it seems that the other party has been carried away by fame, and he really thinks that he is invincible in the world.
One against a hundred? Hum! Give it a try! It is not yet known whether the private soldiers of the Wei family have combat effectiveness, but their own soldiers and horses are the fierce soldiers who have fought since the first year of Zhongping!
The next moment, his face suddenly changed, and when he was about to fight, Wang Yu's left hand was raised, and in the blink of an eye, he waved it again and again! Immediately, there was a cry of pain from the front, and several cavalrymen who were the first to fall from their horses on their backs, and the originally strict formation suddenly became chaotic.
Hidden weapons? Bao Zhong was taken aback.
What secret weapon is so powerful? You don't even need to change hands, you can fire continuously...... It shouldn't be a halberd or a throwing knife, but something like a flying locust stone.
"Beware of hidden weapons, protect your head and face!" Bao Zhong warned loudly, if it was something like the Flying Locust Stone, as long as it blocked the vital point, it would not pose much of a threat.
However, Wang Yu's skills are obviously more than this, I saw that his right arm holding the gun suddenly raised and fell fiercely, and the straight gun shaft was arced by the huge inertia, making a huge whistling sound!
In the whistling sound, the barrel of the gun slapped heavily on the cavalry in the lead, and the huge force was handed out along the barrel of the gun, knocking on the chest like a giant whip, the fine leather armor did not play the slightest role, and the sternum collapsed directly!
There was a muffled sound like beating leather!
A terrible and short scream!
The brave cavalry easily escaped the difficulty of being slapped in the face by the flying stone, but he didn't expect that the bad luck did not end, he was directly slapped from his horse by Wang Yu, like a kite with a broken string, and flew down a few feet away.
The cavalry who was roaring and shouting to kill was suddenly stunned, and his eyes involuntarily followed the parabola drawn by his companion in the air, and then, fear surged into his heart again, and a chill appeared in his body.
They thought that Taishan Wang Pengju was not in vain, and they knew that even if they could win today, they would have to experience a bloody storm, but they never thought that that spear would have such a might, it was like a giant hammer wielded by Thor, and there seemed to be thunder rumbling between swings!
The cavalry in the front row was frightened, but Wang Yu had no intention of stopping the advance.
On the way here, he thought very clearly, the purpose of this battle is to save people, not to win the battle, if the brigade catches up, with the deterrent power of the white horse, Weiz and the others may rise up to the idea of not being able to resist, so they give up resistance and use hostages instead.
No one knows better than Wang Yu how troublesome it is to save hostages. Even if it succeeds, I'm afraid it will be delayed for a long time, and if there is a slight mistake, it will be regretted for life.
Therefore, he simply chased after him alone, attracting the other party to attack him, and then came by surprise to capture the thief and capture the king, or approached the carriage to save people. If you want to achieve this, you have to fight quickly.
It is undoubtedly a good way to cooperate with the flying stone and use the thunder method to strike the first blow and take advantage of the situation.
Wu Qi's footsteps are brisk, quickly shuttling forward in the crowd, Wang Yu opens the bow left and right on the horse, flying stones like rain, the shadow of the gun is like weaving, every step forward, the long front will turn a half circle, extremely tortuous and bounced, where he passes, he is invincible.
The barrel of the gun hit the chest, some people vomited blood, and their bones were broken; The blade flashed through his throat, and some people fell from their horses with blood and fell into the dust; The sound of the wave was dull, the sound of the stabbing was sharp, and then the sound of the wind breaking was mixed in, intertwined with the sound of the miserable howl, and resounded through the silent river.
The more Bao Zhong looked at it, the more frightened he became, he only heard about the battle of Tiger Pass, but he didn't see it in person, he originally thought that the rumors were somewhat exaggerated, but now it seems that Wang Yu combined with far and near to deal with the siege of hundreds of cavalry, and he was actually at ease!
How can a young man be so strong?
Seeing that the soldiers who had been fighting with his brother for many years were swept into the storm and were killed and wounded, Bao Zhong was so cold that he couldn't suppress the order to retreat. However, thinking of the nobles standing behind him and the importance of this plan, he still gritted his teeth.
"His style of play is very exhausting, fighting with him, consuming his strength...... Ah, no, protect the carriage, don't let him attack it......" The shouting stopped abruptly, Bao Zhong was covered in cold sweat, and he was horrified to find that Wang Yu's real purpose was not to fight with them at all, but the people in the carriage!
It's a pity that from the moment Wang Yu appeared, everyone's attention was focused on him, and all they thought about in their hearts was how to besiege and how to make meritorious contributions, ignoring the protection of the carriage.
Shaking off the bodies of the last two guards next to the carriage from the blades of the guns, Wang Yu turned around and sneered: "How about it, do you want to continue to send you to death, or do you want to get acquainted and get out of the way?" ”
"......" Bao Zhong's face was pale, and his head and face were covered with sweat.
Weeds was still in the carriage, and now the tide was reversed. With Wang Yu's martial arts, even if there is no hostage, these cavalry present will not be able to keep him, unless......
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance, Bao Zhong identified the source of the sound, and then his spirit was greatly lifted, his face was swept away, and he smiled cruelly: "Wang Yu, do you think I only have this arrangement?" I'm not afraid to tell you that it's you who is dying! ”
