Chapter Eighty-Three: Ambush on the Mountain Road

On the eighth day of the ninth month, on a mountain road that spread for miles at Jianmen Pass, it was extremely unquiet at the moment. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

To enter the Sword Furnace, you must pass through this path.

The terrain around the trail has turned the trail into a gateway, and the high ground on both sides has formed a gentle slope from top to bottom, which is long and flat, just suitable for the iron cavalry to rush and kill.

On top of this high slope, there is a tall thatch, which is as tall as a man. Now in autumn, it is a yellow-brown color, and at a glance there is a kind of desert Gobi like desolation and loneliness.

A gust of wind whistled by, and when the thatch moved, the black pressure in it was suppressed, like a huge black dragon.

At the top of the hillside, two teenagers were riding on two horses.

It was Xiahouba and Deng Ai.

Xiahou Ba is still indifferent and elegant, his eyes are open and closed, and now he has stepped into the realm, and his temperament is becoming more and more domineering.

Next to him is a silver-armored young man, with a face like a crown of jade, lips like grease, and a pair of eyebrows that are very feminine.

It's just that under his restraint, it gives people a kind of thrilling pressure, that is, a character like Xiahou Ba, who is slightly inferior to him by three points.

Behind Deng Ai and Xiahou Ba were a group of scholars in Luoyang City, those real princes. In addition, what is even more eye-catching is the elite cavalry who have always been dressed in black armor.

This cavalry is an elite class under the command of the prince, and only a henchman like Deng Ai can use it, this cavalry is armed with a black spear, with a straight back, and a killing atmosphere!

Under their crotch are also well-equipped war horses, these war horses have extremely smooth muscular lines, and their limbs are smoothly stepped on the slope of the slope, orderly, obviously rigorously trained.

This kind of armor cavalry, even on the battlefield, is an elite division that is fearless in the face of several times the enemy.

Deng Ai and Xiahou Ba made a plan at the beginning, synthesized the entire battle situation, and analyzed the time and place, only here is the most lax moment for those who came to the Sword Furnace Grand Ceremony, and it is also the most suitable place for ambush.

Compared with the streets and alleys in the town, this place is more condescending, very suitable for cavalry to kill, and the terrain here is only one passage, as long as the two wings are outflanked to form an encirclement, it is enough to wipe out these soldiers!

Deng Ai sat quietly on the horse, a hint of coldness flashing on his softly lined face.

Xiahou Ba was also Zhizhu looking ahead, and at this moment, a pair of spies came to report that they were from that town.

When the spy whispered in Xiahou Ba's ear, a trace of surprise flashed across his face.

"When it was time to close the net, Brother Xiahou was so emotionally intense, but he lost the demeanor of a general. Deng Ai naturally saw Xiahouba's expression in his eyes and said with some dissatisfaction.

Brother Deng smiled, and there was just a small trash fish that slipped through the net. Xiahou Ba's face returned to calm, but his tone was obviously not so calm.

"Little miscellaneous fish, you are dignified in Xiahou Mansion, let such a small miscellaneous fish stir up the wind and rain all over the city, and the civil and military banquet is a big name. Deng Ai's wisdom still guessed the reason, and there was some dissatisfaction in his tone, now many people in Luoyang City compared that kid with him, in his opinion, a boy with a gang qi realm and his name together, it is really insulting!

"That kid naturally can't be compared with Brother Deng's weight of the banquet master back then, but he just relied on this little year. Xiahou Ba said with a smile, his eyes were also irritated that he couldn't hide, he really didn't expect Xiahou to say that the others were so useless, the Mid-Autumn Festival night banquet made that kid out of the limelight, and even made Xiahou Mansion lose face.

And today, the corpse is even more unbearable, and the thought of seeing Cai Wenzhao's face again, Xiahou Ba is as disgusting as eating a fly.

"Okay, such a small role, I don't care about it yet, don't miss the business of this Sword Furnace Ceremony, only Jiang Wei is the real opponent of us. A trace of unspeakable battle intent flashed in Deng Ai's eyes, and he reminded indifferently.

"What Brother Deng said is extremely true. Xiahou Ba nodded, a little ashamed in his heart, at such a moment, because of a little Cai Wenzhao, he was in a state of mind, took a deep breath, and restored the bearing of a general.

"In half an hour, those who come out of the town will arrive here, even if there are guards inside, sect masters, with our troops, one rush is enough to annihilate eight or nine times out of ten. ”

With the strength of Xiahou Ba and Deng Ai, they naturally didn't worry about losing in the Sword Furnace Ceremony.

It's just that, for them, those shrimp soldiers and crab generals are not worthy of competing with them, so they decided to eliminate them all before the Sword Furnace Ceremony begins.

Of course, now, Xiahou Ba is ready to solve that annoying fly with his hands!

A hint of excitement flashed on Deng Ai's soft face, touched the beautiful eyebrows, and smiled coldly.

Outside the town, the hurried team has been rushing for several hours.

On the eighth day of the ninth month, the day before the opening ceremony of the sword furnace, only those who arrive at the sword furnace before the sun rises the next day are eligible to enter.

Therefore, these geniuses of the scholar sect all calculated the time and stayed up all night to set off from the town, and when they arrived at the gate of the sword furnace, it was close to the early hours of the morning.

Naturally, the road is tiring, and the moment they arrive, it is the most difficult and lazy time.

These soldiers, with their high fighting spirit, are slowly and rapidly consumed with the bumpy road and the dark night.

Cai Wenzhao is also in this big team at the moment, Cui Sangongzi is leading, and the rest of the scholars are close behind, after Cai Wenzhao is pressed, their team can be regarded as very strong.

Along the way, Cai Wenzhao still cultivated unremittingly, but he also made his fellow scholars admire.

As for Jiang Wei, because of his identity in Shu, he naturally brought his own team, but he had already agreed with Cai Wenzhao that he would contact him when he arrived at the Sword Furnace Ceremony.

These different teams converged into a large and winding team, each forming a small group, and there were even some sect disciples, who were escorted by their own masters along the way.

This team, each other, is naturally guarded, so they are all scattered, if you look at it as a team, then it can only be described as a rabble of stragglers.

When entering the small mountain road, under the terrain like a funnel, the team automatically contracted, more and more elongated, and the end could not be taken care of at all.

And at this time, Deng Ai and Xiahou Ba were hiding in the thatch, two pairs of cold eyes calculating the distance, and the Xuanjia cavalry behind them was on standby at any time!

A gust of wind blew, the thatch was like a wave of wheat, faintly black flashed away, but in the night, under the exhaustion, everyone was taking care of themselves.

Cai Wenzhao's heart jumped, now he is accustomed to the keen sense of the Son of Heaven's Qi Technique, the purple light flashed under his eyes, and in the dark night, under the thatch, there were faint essences of luck, like hungry wolves all over the mountain, especially on the commanding heights, there were two red essences of luck.

Cai Wenzhao lifted the curtain, suddenly grabbed the reins of the carriage, and shouted: "There is an ambush ahead, everyone listen to my orders, all stop!"
