Chapter 62: Tiger and Leopard Ride
Shu Ye galloped all the way, but in six hours, he arrived at the border station where the main force of the tiger and leopard cavalry was located.
This place is a narrow inside and wide outside the canyon place, the east and west sides of the mountains are connected, forming a natural barrier to protect the Chu country, the south of the canyon, is the departure from the country with the Chu country for generations of blood feuds, the north, after the valley, it goes straight to the hinterland of the Chu country, the plain of thousands of miles, there is no danger to defend.
For decades, the most important place for the 200,000 tiger and leopard cavalry elite to defend was this long and narrow valley, which was used as a base to be deployed along the mountain range, and no matter how many heavy troops were sent out of the country, it was difficult to cross this moat.
Shu Ye and Princess Yue dismounted ten miles outside the valley and went straight to the tiger and leopard riding camp.
"Stop!" Before the two of them reached the gate of the camp, a team of ten people galloping past instantly stopped them, "No idlers are allowed to approach here, please go back." ”
"I want to see you General Long. Shu Ye didn't speak, Princess Yue had already grabbed it, took out a white jade token, flashed it in front of the warriors, and said, "Tell him that Princess Yue of Chu is here." ”
"Princess?" the warriors were heartbroken.
They looked at Princess Yue's ordinary silk clothes, not at all like the silk silk of the royal princess, they couldn't help but doubt in their hearts, and were about to scold, but they were suddenly swept away by her cold eyes, swallowed back in an instant, and quickly beat their horses away.
Shu Ye and Princess Yue waited for a while after the warriors left, and a majestic middle-aged man rode out of the camp on a solid black horse and quickly stopped a foot away from Princess Yue.
He looked at the Moon Princess carefully, his expression froze, and he instantly stepped forward, knelt down on one knee in front of the Moon Princess, and saluted with his fists: "The last general, Long Feihu, meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Shu Yeding looked at it, and saw that this person's body was straight, a body of steel and iron bones, unyielding, a narrow knife mark on his face across his cheeks, hideous and terrifying, kneeling on one knee, but the breath of the whole body was as condensed as a mountain, like a stubborn stone.
"General Long, please get up. Princess Moon stretched out her hands and gently helped him up, "This time the Frost Moon is not far away, but in fact, there is a very critical matter to ask General Long for help." ”
Long Feihu was surprised in his heart, and with a solemn face, he instantly welcomed Shu Ye and Princess Yue into the handsome tent.
With a wave of his thick iron palm, he withdrew all the soldiers in the tent before asking solemnly: "Your Highness went to the border pass alone to look for the last general, but something happened in Lingdu City. ”
Princess Moon's deep eyes flashed and she nodded.
Long Feihu's heart jumped, his face changed greatly, and he asked urgently, "I don't know what happened?"
Princess Yue took out the secret decree written by her father before leaving, and handed it to Long Feihu, and then told him in detail about everything that had happened in Lingdu City in the past few months.
"Yun Chong!" Long Feihu's eyes flashed with cold light, and his killing intent was fierce, "Blatantly rebelling, it's just wolf ambition, and it's not a pity to die." ”
His face was full of anger, his iron palms clenched, and his tyrannical aura condensed, like a bloodthirsty tiger, ready to devour people.
Shu Ye saw that the breath on his body was still and moving, all like thunder, and he was amazed in his heart, and couldn't help but admire the tiger general in front of him.
"Just now, His Highness said that Yun Chong has completely controlled the situation in Lingdu City. After Long Feihu was angry, he calmed down and asked, "I don't know if Your Highness is here, can Yun Chong know?"
Princess Yue nodded: "The two of us were chased and killed by the imperial uncle to escape from Lingdu City. ”
Long Feihu was shocked in his heart, and his face changed greatly: "That Yun Chong knows that you two are here, you must have acted in advance, and the spirit capital may have changed the sky!"
"No, it won't. Princess Yue was categorical, her deep eyes shining brightly, "What Uncle Huang is looking for is not only the country of Chu. ”
Shu Ye and Long Feihu were stunned for a moment and asked, "What does the princess mean?"
"If Uncle Huang is only for the country, he can act as early as when the prime minister defects. Princess Yue said, "The power of the Praetorian Guard has always been in the hands of the imperial uncle. ”
"Behind him, standing is the forces of the Liuyun Sect, and they will not allow the imperial uncle to act now. ”
"Why" Shu Ye and Long Feihu were surprised in their hearts and asked in unison.
"Because ......," Princess Moon paused for a moment and said, "Because the ancestral spirit of the palace hides a big secret, a secret that all the sects in the earthly world covet. ”
"Originally, this secret was only known to me and my father, but for some reason, a few years ago, the news suddenly leaked out for no reason, and for a while, it attracted countless coveted people, so there was everything that followed.
Now that Lingdu City has gathered many forces, they are all looking at the palace with their eyes on it, as long as the imperial uncle dares to act in advance, the Liuyun Sect will inevitably be forced to get involved.
However, at this time, the ancestral spirit of the palace was not opened, they occupied the palace, except for the void throne, they could not get anything, they would only help the hidden forces behind them to find out the direction, and at the same time expose their own strength, this is a step that the Liuyun Sect will never be willing to take. ”
Shu Ye's eyes lit up, they didn't expect that there were so many hidden secrets in them.
"So, we still have time. Princess Yue said, "Before leaving, I met Master and heard the news, we still have at least half a month, these times are enough for General Long to take the main force of the tiger and leopard cavalry to Lingdu City, as long as the tiger and leopard cavalry appear outside the Lingdu City, the Yulin Army and Jin Wuwei will not dare to move." ”
She clenched the secret decree in her sleeve and said in a deep voice: "Although they obey the emperor's orders, they have always been my royal army, and when the time comes, I will hold my father's secret decree in my hand, and I will know the reason before I get to the battle, even if they will not fight back, I am afraid they will hesitate, which can give us enough time to react." ”
Long Feihu knew in his heart, nodded heavily, and responded: "The last general immediately ordered troops, rushed to the imperial capital with Her Royal Highness the Princess, and killed Yun Chong's dog thief." ”
He took a heavy horse chopping knife from the knife rack in the tent, and took Shu Ye and Princess Yue and went straight to the general platform outside the camp.
The huge war drums beat, the sound shook the four fields, between the vast heaven and earth, the war horses neighed, and countless iron horses gathered from the valley and the wilderness, forming a torrent of steel, carrying the silent killing intent in the sky, gathered around the platform.
"All the soldiers!" After Long Feihu read out the secret edict of Emperor Chu, he roared like a fierce tiger, "Yun Chong's wolf ambition is vainly trying to subvert my Chu country, what should I do as a man of the Chu family!"
He is as imposing as a mountain, Ling Ran is fearless, and his killing intent is shocking.
"Kill, kill, kill......"
The silent soldiers of the three armies, under Long Feihu's words, instantly burst out with a majestic killing sound, shaking the entire heaven and earth.
"Now that Her Royal Highness the princess has gone to my border in person, my tiger and leopard cavalry, as the elite division of the empire, should be duty-bound, and behead the country thief to Kuang Sheji. Long Feihu held the general order, and roared loudly, "The elite of the 30,000 tiger divisions, follow me to the Lingdu immediately, rescue Your Majesty, and kill Yun Chong, and then the 70,000 tiger divisions will carry the grain and grass and chase with all their might, within half a month, they must reach the Lingdu City, and the rest of the leopard divisions will strictly guard the Battle Knife Gorge and consolidate the defense line. ”
The two generals with heavy knives were about to receive orders, and outside the camp gate, a light horse suddenly covered with blood, rushed straight to the camp gate, and quickly came to the front of the general's platform.
Long Feihu looked at the warrior who was rushing straight forward, his pupils shrank, and the cold light burst out.
The light cavalry warrior sat straight on his horse, led the horse and fixed himself in front of Long Feihu, did not dismount, did not speak, but stared at him vigorously.
"Is it the Leopard Rider?" Long Feihu stared at each other with his eyes.
The light cavalry warrior bit his lip tightly, nodded, and pointed to the southeast of heaven and earth.
"Is it to defend the country?" Long Feihu's killing intent grew.
The warrior nodded again, relieved, the light in his eyes dimmed instantly, blood gushed out of his mouth, and the whole person fell from his horse to the ground.
Shu Ye fixed his eyes and looked at the warrior, only to see that the three iron arrows behind his back were deep into the vest, and the blood that flowed out was already black.
He was shocked in his heart, and realized that this warrior had relied on strong willpower to make it here, and reported the news to the main force of the tiger and leopard cavalry.
"Defend the country!" Long Feihu's eyes were cold with murderous intent, and Ling Tian roared, "Order, order the leopard to ride the thunder department and the wind department from Lei Ze City to the position of the Ze department, and the two elites of the tiger riding heaven and earth will immediately rush to Qingcang City." ”
He took out two tiger flags, handed them to the two generals who listened to the order, and roared angrily: "No matter how many people and horses there are in the country, I want it to be buried in Qingcang and Lei Ze." ”
Facing Long Feihu's tyrannical killing intent, the two generals instantly ordered to leave.
In just a moment, the sound like rolling thunder resounded across the earth, the war horses neighed, the iron hooves cracked, and the 20,000 tiger riders rushed towards the distance like a torrent of steel.
When Princess Moon saw the tiger riding the elite galloping away, her face not only did not improve, but she also faintly showed worry.
Long Feihu looked at her worried expression, laughed, and couldn't help but comfort: "Your Highness, don't worry, the small country of Weiguo, there are less than 100,000 elites in the country, and if it dares to cross the border thunder pool of my Chu country, I dare to let it come and go." ”
"General Long, doesn't you think that Wei Guo came too coincidentally?" the worry in Princess Yue's eyes became more and more intense.
"I'm afraid there is a trick!" Shu Ye said with a frown.
When Long Feihu heard the two of them say this, his heart sank, and he also felt weird, and exclaimed: "Is it ......?"
He pondered the various entanglements here, and his mind condensed, trying to quickly sort out the connections, when a huge roar suddenly resounded through the void again, coming from outside the camp.
Shu Ye and the three of them were shocked, and hurriedly stared into the distance, only to see the three tiger horse scouts flying with four hooves, directly breaking through the camp gate guards, and heading straight to Jiangtai.
The three of them were covered with sweat, jumped off their horses in front of the general's platform, knelt on the ground on their knees, and said to Long Feihu: "General, the main force of the National Lei Cavalry has gone straight to the Battle Dao Gorge. ”
Long Feihu's pupils shrank, and he was shocked: "How many people, who is the leader!"
The specific number of people is unknown, but the three subordinates carefully probed along the way, but they heard that it was the leader of the son of the country, Yingyi, and the handsome horse held by the thunder horse was indeed the flower of thunder flames. ”
"Win Yi!" Long Feihu's face changed, "It turned out to be Win Yi." ”
