Chapter Seventy-Three: The Black Rider of the Praetorian Guard
Although Meng Yi is a civil servant, when commanding battles, he is no worse than a general who gallops on the battlefield. After rushing to Pei County, Meng Yi quickly issued a summoning order, gathered the Praetorian Guards hiding everywhere, and pounced on the county government like a tiger descending from the mountain, controlling the entire county government, and directly arresting the county order. Then the county order was interrogated by thunderous means.
Under the torture of various means, this county order was as simple as pouring beans from a bamboo tube for everything, admitting that he colluded with Zhang Liang, Xiang Liang and others to sell grain and grass for huge profits. Usually cover for Zhang Liang's grain transportation team and suppress the incidents caused by Zhang Liang's camp. But he didn't know much about Zhang Liang's identity, and even the identity of Xiang Liang, who had dealt with him the most, was half-understood, thinking that Xiang Liang was just a high-roller, and even the emperor was furious when he knew what he was involved in.
After decisively dealing with the county order, Meng Yi summoned the county lieutenant, the county magistrate, the county supervisor and other powerful officials and temporarily detained them to prevent the news from leaking. After doing all this, he put together a team of officers and soldiers who could be combed together by the county government, handed them over to Yang Duanhe and the commander-in-chief, and rushed to the valley where Zhang Liang was hoarding grain. On the way, he met the Praetorian guards sent back by Fusu, and with a guide, the march was more rapid, and soon appeared outside the valley.
Soon after arriving, the guards who were standing guard on the cliff sent back the news that the thieves in the valley were in internal strife, fighting each other, and the chaos became a pot of porridge. Meng Yi was overjoyed, speculating that it should be a scene made by Chen Sheng, so he immediately made a decision and immediately attacked the enemy camp with a large army, broke through the cottage by surprise, and took the thieves down in one fell swoop.
Hearing the sound of shouting and killing from the gate of the cottage, Xiang Liang's scalp was numb, and when he looked back, holding a torch, the iron horse that was densely covered and killed, Xiang Liang's mind was even more blank.
All black horses and black armor are the unique symbols of the Great Qin Praetorian Guard. Xiang Liang had seen the power of this iron horse when he was young. At that time, the two countries of Qin and Chu, with an army of 1.2 million faced off for a year, and Wang Qian, the general of Qin, had one hundred and fifty such iron cavalry by his side. At the time of the last battle, Xiang Liang clearly remembered that the elderly Wang Jian took the lead under the escort of this one hundred and fifty horsemen, holding the Qin army, and rushed into the most elite army of the Chu State!
The three thousand iron cavalry led by Xiang Liang's father, Xiang Yanqin, the general of the Chu State, which was also mixed with two hundred elite cavalry of the Xiong Zhen internal guard, was torn open by this black horseman! Under the impact of the black knight, the three thousand people were shattered like papier-mâché. Xiang Yan didn't even have time to react, he was killed by the black horse in front of him and cut off his head. The 600,000 Chu army was completely defeated by the Qin army that came like a black tide, and the country was defeated.
At that time, Xiang Liang was by his father's side, he tried his best to protect it, but he still couldn't resist the impact of the black horse, and there were still a few terrifying scars on his body, what Xiang Liang could do in the end was to wrap his father's head and escape from the battlefield. Later, Xiang Liang learned that the one hundred and fifty black horsemen were the personal guards of the Emperor of Qin, the Praetorian Guards of the Qin Empire, every knight was a perfect horseman, every knight had hundreds of lives in his hands, and every knight was qualified to be the elite of this team after defeating tens of thousands of partners.
Goodbye Hei Qi at this time, how can Xiang Liang not be frightened. Looking back on the past, he no longer had the courage to face this black horseman.
The sound of "whew..." resounded in the sky. Xiang Liang felt a chill in his heart, and quickly rushed to a place with few people. This air-breaking sound is one of Black Knight's special moves: throwing an axe. Each knight has three copper axes weighing about twelve catties, the copper axe has two blades on both sides, and on horseback, the flying throw of a powerful knight will form a whirlwind chopping wheel, which can directly penetrate the person who is about five zhang to ten zhang away. Therefore, that is to say, even if it is a cavalry confrontation, when the two sides have not yet contacted, the black cavalry can launch a round of fierce attacks, bombard the opponent with heavy firepower first, completely disintegrate the opponent's momentum, and then sprint over to fight, occupying a great advantage.
The wooden gate was thick, but it was quickly shattered by the attack of the bronze axe. The Praetorian Guards rushed into the cottage as if they were in a no-man's land, and immediately smashed the guards who stood in front of the gate. The guards on the city walls, seeing the cavalry charge, immediately pulled themselves out of the rebellion that had suppressed the hard labor and fired at the outside of the city walls.
However, the black armor on the Praetorian Guards' bodies was extremely thick, and ordinary feather arrows would not appear even if they were shot on it, and they would not even appear in a spot, which would not stop the impact of the black knights at all.
Seeing Meng Yi rushing with the cavalry, Chen Sheng was excited, jumped on a high ground, and shouted loudly: "Lord Meng, don't hurt these hard laborers, chase and kill those guards in yellow clothes!" Be quick, or they'll set fire to the food and grass here! Chen Sheng understands Zhang Liang's thoughts very well.
Meng Yi saw Chen Sheng and grinned. He admired Chen Sheng very much, he was so brave and brave, he dared to break into the tiger's den in Longtan, and he made such a big move, he was still alive and well, and he didn't know if it was because of his strength or luck. Nodding, Meng Yi quickly gave the order.
Seeing the officers and soldiers coming in, and the split wind that was entangled with Ma Lie and the strong man, he had no intention of fighting, and quickly withdrew and fled to the back. When fighting Ma Lie, he still had the upper hand, and if it weren't for Ma Lie's machete in his hand, he would have killed Ma Lie under his steel fist. But as soon as the strong man came in, the splitting wind began to fall. The strength of that strong man is far greater than that of the Splitting Wind. However, this strong man is also a brute force, and he doesn't know how to fight, so he can let the splitting wind support it for so long.
Seeing that the Split Wind had fled, Ma Lie did not pursue. The tiger's mouths in his hands have been shattered by the brute force of the splitting wind, blood is gushing out, and his arms are also sore and unbearable, it is pure luck to be able to support him until now, if it were not for the strong man to join, he would have been defeated a long time ago.
Zhang Liang on the deck trembled. The appearance of Qin Jun tonight was too sudden. Without the slightest warning, he didn't even have time to destroy the hundreds of thousands of stone grain and incalculable salt and cloth on the shore. He bit his lip stubbornly, blood slowly flowed out of his lips, and after a while, he slowly said: "Chen Sheng, good boy, I will remember your ......" After a while, he said with a gloomy face: "Open the boat, let's get out of here, sink all the other ships, or burn them!" ”
The guards on the shore were simply powerless to fight back. Many of the guards who rushed back from afar to support were confronted by the Praetorian Guards, and the two sides did not even engage in a formal battle, and were quickly cleaned up.
Meng Yi was very proud in his heart, but after seeing a red light by the river in the distance, his face became gloomy again.
