Chapter 501: Uninvited Guest

Xiaoxiang College, the ladder of mountaineering, as the largest and oldest college in Chuzhou, the ladder of mountaineering has 3,000 steps, and every 500 steps, there will be a square, on the square, there is the sun and moon archway that is similar to the moon tower gate at the foot of the mountain.

And this every square is almost a threshold, but also the mountain gate of the college, if you want to complete the goal of kicking the door, you must climb the steps of 3,000 steps, cross the five mountain gates, and reach the mountain number of bell towers, as long as you ring the bronze bell there, that is, the door is kicked successfully. However, from ancient times to the present, only the Shengtian Academy of the year can accomplish this feat, because in each mountain gate, there will be a large number of students waiting there, and in this kind of battle, wheel warfare is allowed, so unless there are those with superior strength, they are surprised by the four seats, otherwise it is difficult to reach the top in this kind of wheel battle.

Xiaoxiang College, established for 2,000 years, although it is inferior to Shengtian College in the psychic college, but it is a comprehensive state college, occupying one-third of the area of Xiaoxiang hills, which in addition to the main college in front of you, there are also three branches: the business school branch, the warrior college branch and the liberal arts college branch.

These three branches are built on three hills separated by 100 meters from the main peak, covering an extremely wide area, with 100,000 students alone, which can be called a medium-sized city.

The branch of the Warrior Academy, as the largest warrior department of Xiaoxiang Academy, has as many as four first-year students, more than half of the students of the academy, and as a state school, although the conditions of the warrior academy here are not as good as those of other departments, but it is far stronger than the warrior department of other colleges, and can enter the state school, the family is a little accumulated, and for the poor students, there are also some reductions.

A few female warrior cadets had just finished taking a shower and were walking towards their dormitory, but when they turned the boulevard, they saw the soldiers hurrying down the hill in all directions, as if they had stepped out of some emergency.

A small warrior ran down the stairs like the wind, but was pulled by the arm of a female insect with a long body of five big and three thick, with big shoulders and a round waist, and no less than a man's body, and suddenly the warrior was lifted up like a monkey in a tree.

"Hey, let me ask you, where are you going in such a hurry, is there anything important going on?"

The little male warrior was originally pulled, and he was about to go crazy, especially when he was still holding a female insect comparable to a man, and his face suddenly became gloomy, but at this moment, from behind the female worm, a beautiful woman wearing leather armor and a **** figure lined with a face was also superior.

Although the tone is not very good, but the beauty scolding is also a different flavor, not to mention that in the warrior department, it is good for a hundred men to be able to get a woman, and it is really a scene of one thousand people in removing the female insects and dinosaurs in front of them. The warrior's face was cloudy, and his face was full of a pleasant smile, and he said, "Don't you know?"

"Know what?"

The male soldier sniffed the faint fragrance of herbs and said, he had long been confused, and immediately said: "A few guys have come to challenge, and they have passed two levels in a row at this moment, and they are heading for the third level, we are here to support!"

"Oh!" Just when the girls didn't feel any shock, suddenly an arrow burst out of the sky, and then exploded in mid-air, and with a bang, this arrow could be seen by most of the academy.

The male warrior looked at the exploding arrow, and immediately scolded: "Damn, a group of incompetent waste, actually let them break the third level, let me go, I want to defend the honor of the academy and the dignity of the warrior department." ”

"Let's go, let's go too!" If the first level and the second level were because they were raided by someone, their defense was insufficient, and they were exploited, then the third layer was a bottom line, and the third layer was broken, and then there were only two mountain gate barriers left, but everyone who was a member of Xiaoxiang Academy knew the seriousness of the matter.

For a while, there was a crowd of people, and some high-level warriors who didn't care much about it finally couldn't sit still, and left their cultivation ground or dormitory one after another, and went straight to the direction of the main courtyard.

The rolling torrent is like an unstoppable flood beast, and the obstacles ahead are like ice and snow touching the warm spring sun, and they are melting one after another.

Since ten days ago, a trap in Xishuihu Bay outside Xiangyang City wiped out the main force of the Poyang Navy in Chuzhou, and the Yangzhou Navy as a guest army has become the only available Navy in Poyang, but before figuring out the enemy's secret weapon, the Yangzhou Navy Army did not dare to attack Xiangyang City easily.

And the Xiangyang Navy also lost its last foundation before, and at this moment Xiangyang no longer has a powerful Navy Army, and the Poyang Sea fell into a short period of calm for a while.

The calm in the west provided a relatively safe environment on land, and the three Zhichong Prefectures of the Tang Dynasty, the main force of the current Xiangyang Wang Army, after a series of secret transfers, were all mobilized to the west of Donghu County.

In the face of the 200,000 troops deployed by the empire in Yu County, Donghu County, and Orange Yang County, the Xiangyang Wang rebel army did not choose to sit back and wait for the imperial army to advance step by step, after all, Xiangfan is only a county, and there is no depth at all, so it can be said that they are already fighting against the water.

King Xiangyang's crazy expansion of the army during this period of time was not without results, and the strong men who were almost equivalent to the number of the emperor's ** team were forced to be sent to the battlefield. The armory in Xiangyang City stored a large number of ordnance, enough to arm more than 100,000 people.

Although the combat effectiveness of these soldiers and horses is limited, it is still possible to sit in the city and delay the pace of the imperial army, and the Tang army, which has concentrated all the main force of 30,000 people, is finally exhausted. See. At dawn on June 26, the Tang Army, with a small cavalry as the vanguard, infantry as the main force, and another 50,000 new troops as the rear, launched the largest offensive since the Xiangfan rebellion.

The empire defending the first line in the northwest of Orangeyang County is the third division of the Rock Legion, one of the three major legions in Chuzhou, which is stationed in Jiuchuan Mansion, although this legion is called Panshi, but its performance is not much better than eggs, after all, the southern frontier of the empire is much more peaceful than the northern frontier, and the existence of the three major legions is more than the nobles who monitor the first line of southern Xinjiang.

The Taiping years are the biggest corruption of the army, and the same is true of the Rock Legion, although it bears the name of one of the three major legions in Chuzhou, but from top to bottom, there are few generals who can fight, and more rely on background, money, and generals who boast about the horse.

200,000 troops pressed the border, the imperial generals had almost begun to celebrate the victory in advance, thinking that the enemy in front of them was already at the end of the crossbow, and they could only rush up, they would be captured, as the so-called, the soldiers were so optimistic, the soldiers below were naturally the same, the vigilance was lax, and even the sudden counterattack of the anti-king army was completely wide-eyed and incredulous.

It seems that in their hearts, in the face of the imperial army, they should be passively beaten, hiding in the camp in the city and shivering, so, in order to be prepared for the attack, the third division of the Rock Army was broken through the camp by 3,000 cavalry at that time, and fell into chaos.

Subsequently, nearly 30,000 elite foot soldiers swept through the 3rd Division of the Rock Army like a stronger wave, and the resistance of the 3rd Division was almost negligible.

Subsequently, the Xiangyang Wang Army did not stop the horses' hooves, and the foot soldiers did not stop to collect the prisoners, clean up the battlefield, and hand them all over to the new army that came later.

A group of blood-stained cavalry galloped quickly down the official road, and not long after, around a forest, a wide river suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Phew!" the captain at the head of the team grabbed the reins of the horse, and this cavalry, which had almost more than 200 people, suddenly stopped: "Go and call the guide!" "My lord, you are looking for me!" This guide has never ridden a horse, so he has already vomited up and down with a bump, and the whole person has lost the appearance of a person, and he has been carried all the way over.

"Show me where this is?"

The guide glanced at both sides and said, "It's hard to say the specific location, but this should be Xiaoshui, and after crossing this river, it is Xiaoxiang County! ”

"Xiaoxiang County?" The captain on the horse frowned slightly, but he didn't expect to go down this way, and he actually ran over his head and ran to Xiaoxiang County, whether to turn around and go northeast or south.

Just when the lieutenant had a headache, not far away, a baggage battalion escorting thirty or forty carts of ordnance, grain and grass appeared on the official road.

Because the offensive of the Xiangyang Army was too sharp, the rear did not know that the front line had been broken through at this moment, but this baggage battalion was a baggage battalion belonging to the Third Division of the Panshi Army, which was specially responsible for providing logistical supplies for the Third Division, and there would be such a battalion almost every other day.

The captain drew out the blood-stained saber on his waist, and there was no hesitation between his eyebrows, he raised his sword, and the blood-colored cold light flashed in the sun: "Kill with me!" As he spoke, he pulled the reins of his horse, and more than two hundred horsemen rushed towards the baggage camp in front of him like tigers descending from the mountain.

Speaking of which, this baggage battalion is also inverted to zero, when you see this cavalry, you should take precautions, the cart of the baggage battalion is the best obstacle, and the most important thing that the baggage battalion lacks is the bow and crossbow equipment, not to mention that there are three brigades of soldiers guarding this wave of baggage, and the number of people picked up is more than the anti-king army on the opposite side.

But no one would have thought that there would be an anti-king army here, and compared to the front-line soldiers, the baggage battalion, as an auxiliary army, is even more slack, and it is full of straw bales with industrious limbs, various experts in rubbing oil or something, fighting, and they have nothing to do with it at all.

Therefore, when the cavalry of the anti-king army found that in the half quarter of an hour to rush forward, these more than 300 people actually directly left their baggage and fled in all directions, and only a few people were under the cart because of their soft legs, in a vain attempt to be an ostrich.

It was extremely easy, all the baggage of these dozens of carts were taken, and it was easy that even the anti-king military captain couldn't believe it, and then, after questioning these straw bales and asking some questions, the cavalry did not choose to converge the brigade in the northeast, but sent a few people to contact the rear, and he took his soldiers and horses and went straight to the nearest Xiaoshui stone bridge nearby.

After this cavalry of less than two hundred people easily captured the stone bridge, dozens of people were left to guard it, and then they went straight to the nearest town from here, Jiwu Town, and this town is only less than twenty miles away from Xiaoxiang Academy.
