Chapter 204: Encounter, First Battle

With the glow of the morning light, after a night of repair, the Tiance army advanced rapidly again.

The speed of the new army of the Tiance Army is extremely fast, and in addition to its own good discipline, it also benefits from the excellent physical fitness of the officers and men of the Tiance Army.

Today's Tiance Army, even the weakest soldiers have the cultivation strength of the martial arts entry qi and blood realm, so that their physical fitness is far beyond that of ordinary people, which is very comparable.

In this case, the speed of the Tiance Army's march naturally goes without saying.

Along the way, Gao Shi led his light cavalry as the vanguard army to explore the way at the forefront of the army, and Li Siye's Modao team followed.

This army marched for more than a day.

"Qi Qi Bai Shuai, there are ten miles ahead of Tiger Leaping Gorge."

At this time, a general quickly rode his horse and reported.

At this time, the Tiance army had marched nearly three hundred miles again since the repair of Xiangzhou City, and there were about two hundred miles to reach Hongqing Mountain.

"Let the vanguard army explore the way ahead, check if there is an ambush on both sides of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and make sure it is safe to pass through."

Hearing this, Bai Yuxian ordered directly.

Previously, when he was in Xiangzhou City, Bai Yuxian obtained from Li Zongze and Qin Fuwen not only the specific information of the current Hongqing Mountain, but also a detailed map of Xiangzhou.

After obtaining the map, Bai Yuxian also made a comprehensive and detailed study and observation of the geographical environment of the entire Xiangzhou territory, especially the geographical route from Xiangzhou City to Hongqingshan Road, and some of the places suitable for ambush points on the road were marked by Bai Yuxian.

The Tiger Leaping Gorge, the whole is a line of heavenly canyon terrain, the road passes through the deepest part of the canyon, both sides are up to a hundred long cliffs, the road of the canyon is also several miles long, this kind of place is definitely the best place to set up an ambush.

If the army passes directly through the canyon without checking, then the enemy only needs to set up ambushes on the mountains on both sides of the canyon and roll down the rocks and then block the entrances and exits at both ends of the canyon, which is to catch turtles in the urn.

Such terrain must be explored clearly when the generals lead the troops to go on the expedition.

"Yes."

Half an hour later, the army marched to the entrance of the Tiger Leaping Gorge, and the vanguard army led by Gao Shi and Li Siye also explored the situation clearly.

"General, the mountains on both sides have been explored, and there is no ambush."

Bai Yuxian himself also used his divine sense to secretly probe and confirm that there was no ambush before nodding.

The army continued to march.

At the same time, far away in the direction of Hongqing Mountain, there are still dozens of miles away from the official road of Tiger Leaping Gorge.

The soldiers and horses of Hongqingshan are still hurrying towards the Tiger Leaping Gorge.

But on the way, Hong Kui was still complaining.

"Strategist, you're too anxious, Xiangzhou City is three hundred miles away from Tiger Leaping Gorge, a hundred miles more than our Hongqing Mountain, even if the Tiance Army marches fast, it will have to arrive tomorrow, why are we in such a hurry."

Qin Yuniang couldn't help but shake her head in her heart when she listened to Hong Kui's undisguised complaints, as the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated, today's Hongqingshan, with the rapid increase in numbers and forces and after defeating Liu Funan's 30,000 army, has undoubtedly become an arrogant army, especially Hong Kui, who is even more proud of his own strength and exploits, with such a mentality, Hongqingshan will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

What's more, the soldiers are fast, especially if you want to set up an ambush successfully, then you naturally need to arrive earlier and arrange everything in advance.

Qin Yuniang didn't bother to say much to Hong Kui, and directly ordered the army to move forward at full speed.

"the girls, what are you pretending."

Hong Kui was taken aback, and suddenly couldn't help but curse unhappily in his heart.

However, these people in Hongqing Mountain are just a group of rabble after all, even if Qin Yuniang orders to move forward at full speed, the speed is far less than that of the Tiance Army.

An hour later, before Qin Yuniang and the other Hongqingshan troops arrived at the Tiger Leaping Gorge, they directly ran into the Tiance army that had already passed through the Tiger Leaping Gorge.

The vanguard light cavalry led by Gao Shi directly collided with the army of Hongqingshan.

When they met, both sides were stunned for a moment, completely unexpectedly bumping into each other.

Especially the people in Hongqing Mountain, when they saw the Tiance Army, they were stunned for a moment.

"How is it possible, how can the Tiance Army get here, didn't they just come to Xiangzhou City the day before yesterday."

Hong Kui's eyes almost widened.

Qin Yuniang's gaze couldn't help but shrink violently.

She didn't expect that it had only been more than a day, and the Tiance Army had already crossed the Tiger Leaping Gorge directly to here, marching more than 300 miles in more than a day, what a marching speed.

And then look at the cavalry of the Tiance Army that appeared in the sight.

Trouble.

Qin Yuniang realized that she was afraid that the strength of the Tiance Army would far exceed their expectations.

But it's useless to think about it at this time.

"Prepare for war."

Qin Yuniang hurriedly ordered.

Hearing Qin Yuniang's words, everyone in Hongqing Mountain woke up like a dream, and immediately hurriedly prepared for battle, but they were not afraid.

Although this encounter was beyond their expectations, there were more than 30,000 of them, and the total number of Tiance troops was only 20,000, so the advantage was still on them, so they didn't panic.

"Prepare for war, prepare for grandpa, wait with grandpa and I will cut him."

Hong Kui's bull-like voice also immediately roared.

On the other side, Gao Shi, who looked at the Hongqingshan army that was starting to prepare for the battle, did not choose to rush into battle, after all, the number of the Hongqingshan army was also here, and they were only a thousand vanguard troops.

"Bai Shuai, in front of you are the Red Green Mountain thieves and horses, there are about twenty or thirty thousand people, and they are also coming at us depending on the situation, and they were bumped into by us."

Soon, Bai Yuxian also led a large army to arrive, and completely confronted the Hongqing Mountain army.

Bai Yuxian's eyes also looked at the Hongqingshan army in front of him, and suddenly saw the five people led by Qin Yuniang, Hong Kui, Wu Yu, Li Sanlang, and Sun Wuzhou.

Bai Yuxian also instantly guessed the intentions of these people, most of them were preparing to come to Tiger Leaping Gorge to set up an ambush, but he didn't expect their Tiance Army's marching speed to be so fast and slow, so that they collided with them in the face.

"The whole army is arrayed and ready to fight."

Bai Yuxian immediately ordered.

"Array!"

Feng Changqing immediately drank highly.

With this order, the entire Tiance Army also split up in an instant like a tide, forming a neat phalanx and defense line.

The speed and neatness of the team are simply breathtaking, and they are pleasing to the eye.

Qin Yuniang, who saw this scene in the Red Qingshan army, suddenly sank in her heart, and then her eyes fell on Bai Yuxian who was the leader.

"You're that white jade immortal."

At this time, Hong Kui in the Red Qingshan Army suddenly stepped forward to look at Bai Yuxian, and when he saw Bai Yuxian's appearance, he couldn't help but sneer and challenge.

"I thought you had three heads and six arms, it turned out to be just a little white face, today is just a good time for Grandpa Linghong and I to see how much ability you have, and you have a kind of fight."

"Hao's first horseman, a reckless thief, what is your identity, and you are also worthy of challenging this handsome."

Bai Yuxian looked at Hong Kui calmly, and then gave a direct order.

"Shoot the arrows."

It's not that the two armies are deadlocked, Bai Yuxian doesn't have the heart to fight with the other party here.

"Fearless rats, the brothers of the red green mountains rushed with me and took the head of this white jade fairy child."

Hong Kui was also furious when he heard this, and then directly gave an order and led his subordinates to rush towards the Tiance Army, so that Qin Yuniang on the side didn't even have time to stop it.

"A rabble is a rabble."

Seeing this scene, Bai Yuxian couldn't help but shake his head, he dared to rush and kill like this when the army on his side was well-formed, and all of them were short-sleeved and short-legged, there were not a few war horses, and there were not a few pieces of armor.

I really think that marching and fighting is a brave and ruthless battle on the rivers and lakes, as long as you have the strength and are not afraid of death, you can rush forward.

"Put!"

Woooo

In an instant, with the sound of breaking the air one after another, thousands of arrows rained out of the sky from the Tiance army and shot towards the Red Qingshan army that rushed up.

In addition, there are a hundred thousand-machine crossbows in the Tiance army, which are used to shoot war horses and martial arts masters, and only the arrows are as thick as an arm, and it takes more than a dozen people to draw the bow.

The Thousand Machine Crossbow was shot together with ordinary arrows, and it instantly resembled the scythe of the Grim Reaper.

"Ahh "Poof!" "Poof!" “.”

In an instant, before the entire Hongqing Mountain army rushed up a hundred meters, it was directly slaughtered and fell down and screamed.

Someone was shot through the heart.

Someone was shot through the head.

Someone was hit by several arrows.

There are even people who don't even have the whole corpse left, they were shot by a thousand machine crossbows, and their entire bodies were directly shot on the spot.
