Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Striker

Huan Da Sima's plan to divide the troops into two roads began to be implemented immediately, and the 10,000 red armor soldiers who went south to rescue the Juye Waterway were led by Jianwei General Huan Huo, Huan Huo is the third brother of Da Sima, and also an important general of the Northern Expedition, with cautious and strong combat power, after the battle of Luoyang, the lone division bravely advanced, captured another Yan military town Xuchang, and also in the battle of the siege of Dongping County, only to lead the department to come, although not as strong as the younger brother Huan Chong, but more calm general bearing, Sima used him as the main general of the south, it is already extraordinarily heavy。 The army going north was led by Da Sima himself, and he rushed to the Yellow River in a hurry.

Chi Tang and several disciples of the Qianjia family were tasked with destroying the ghost soldiers of the Fudu King of Yan Kingdom, so they naturally went to the direction of Huan Huo's southward army, but they did not act together with 10,000 soldiers and horses, but each had to strengthen their horses and rode as the vanguard of the southward army.

Since the biggest obstacle to the aid of the Juye Waterway lies in the group of elusive ghost soldiers of the King of Volodoo, then the disciples of the Qianjia who are good at subduing demons will take the lead as the vanguard and exterminate them with all their might. The army of Huan Huo and Lu accepted the defeated troops that were scattered, and according to the previous plan, the strength of the army was expanded to 20,000 people, and then when the Qianjia demon slayer was completed, these warrior troops went down again, and joined the remnants of Huan Chong, the general of the conquest who was guarding Yingshui, and Murong, the king of Wu of Yan State, who had not established himself in a decisive battle.

At present, a queue of more than 100 horsemen is moving forward quickly under the deep twilight, although the number is not large, but it faintly exudes a solemn and awe-inspiring battle intent coercion. Chi Tang's eyes swept over the comrades-in-arms around him, but he couldn't help but smile secretly with relief.

Da Sima paid enough attention to the ghost soldiers under the command of the King of Volodus, in addition to a few disciples of the Qianjia family in brown shirts and short shirts, Da Sima was like a shadow around him, and several big swordsmen who would never leave lightly also came together, Han Li, the thunder-piercing falcon, the remnant-eyed ghost owl Yi Raccoon, the blood-sucking Sky Eagle Chaojiehao, the army-breaking vulture Zhai Peng, Yin Jing, the Flying Crow of Death, and the Shadow Sparrow are Fei Xiong, all the men in the outstanding swordsmen of the Great Sima Mansion are in this forward queue, or they are considering that the battle with the ghost sergeant is too tragic, and the Great Sima has a trace of unbearable heart, or they are worried that the woman's feminine physique will have any effect on the ghosts who are outside of consciousness but have more or less heard some taboo rumors, in short, the women of the two swordsmen, Han Ni of the Soul Snatcher Pheasant and Zhuo Qiuyi, the Raider Jie Yan Zhuo Qiuyi, have stayed by the side of the Great Sima, Mo Yumei is already a lesson from the past, and the Great Sima does not want these female swordsmen to take risks again。 Of course, this kind of superstitious thinking that is somewhat inhumane to outsiders did not prevent Dong Yao, who is also a woman, from riding a horse to accompany Chi Tang, it is obvious that she is the junior sister of these gods of the Qianjia family, and she is a genuine disciple of the dignified Demon Sect, a little ghost, and it is just a piece of cake for this beautiful and lovely little girl. The champion general Shen Jin has also become a member of the vanguard army because of his record of killing those monsters, as for the others, they are all selected in the battalions to be particularly powerful and skilled soldiers, no matter what, the battle between ghosts and strong warriors may not be one-sided without suspense, maybe these high-level martial arts sergeants can also glow with the same potential as Shen Jin?

Thinking about it, the composition of the personnel arranged by Da Sima is not meticulous, and what kind of effect this team can achieve in the face of those invulnerable ghost sergeants, Chi Tang doesn't know what to do. But what he knew was that this was an extremely powerful team from a human point of view, and there were two of the Five Absolute Warriors, himself, Han Li, and Ji Rui, Xue Yang, and the other Great Sima Mansion swordsmen, especially the remnant-eyed ghost owl wearing a bronze mask, all of them were first-class masters in the world. Shen Jin is a general, but the giant sword on his back makes Chi Tang have a sense of déjà vu, as a master of swordsmanship, he can be sure that if he wants to make such a giant sword superb, at least he must have the strength close to the giant warrior Zhang Yan's cultivation, obviously, Shen Jin did a very good job, and killed that kind of monster several times, which shows that he has some rare strength--- the strength of breaking the body. As for the sergeants selected from the military battalion, Chi Tang has also secretly observed, and there are many good players who have practiced martial arts since childhood and have a solid foundation. And such a team composed almost entirely of strong men, Chi Tang is even confident that he can defeat the most elite iron cavalry of the Yan Kingdom ten times his size, of course, this is when the terrain is favorable to him, he will not be stupid enough to face the iron cavalry army in the plains and wilderness.

Because of the purpose of this vanguard army, it is natural that the disciples of the Qianjia who are good at subduing demons are the commanders, and Chi Tang, as the senior brother among several Qianjia disciples, has also become the nominal chief general of the vanguard army. Before leaving, Da Sima solemnly announced to the sergeants of the forward army who were about to set off: "You wait first, regardless of the officials, all listen to the orders of Chi Zhuangshi, if there is a violation of the order, it will be severely punished with military discipline!" Thinking of this, Chi Tang was a little ridiculous, in the past when he was fighting with swords, the family was overwhelmed by other big clans, and finally broke out of the house alone, and he didn't know how many curses he had cursed on these northern people, but the last words of the ancestor who revitalized the family road became distant under the powerlessness. But now these are no longer in my mind, just thinking about the season of subduing demons and eliminating demons and saving the world, but by mistake, I climbed to the great Sima of the southern country, and became the main general of this important battle.

Thinking of this, Chi Tang gently said sorry to his deceased parents in his heart, the child is no longer the layman who had the heart to revive the family in the past, father and mother, you will definitely know what the child is doing now, and these are far more meaningful and worthwhile things than a prosperous family.

This apology from the bottom of his heart seemed to be very self-consoling, Chi Tang quickly put aside these mundane thoughts in the flash, he took a long breath, and scanned the queue again with the corner of his eye, the sound of horses' hooves was fast and soft, the warriors in the queue were calm and silent, and the fighting spirit was more intense because of the stoic will.

"Very good, I know what I have to face, but I am not afraid, I am not afraid, I am just indomitable ambition......! No, it's us. Chi Tang glanced at Ji Rui Xue Yang beside him, as well as the yellow dog on Xue Yang's horse that was looking at him and laughing, "We are going to take you and survive the war with the ghosts!"

At the moment of this glance, Chi Tang keenly felt that there were three eyes looking at him, a warm and affectionate style, the clear eyes made his heart warm, of course Chi Tang knew whose gaze it was, it seemed that she was always looking at herself, this didn't know why Lu Dao would like her ninth junior sister, the corners of Chi Tang's mouth curled, a gentle smile appeared on his ugly face, and he gently bowed his head to Dong Yao in response. As long as the delicate and cold spirit that always makes him not deceive is not there, he is always very happy and enjoys Dong Yao's love, and Chi Tang's smiling expression does not pause, and immediately meets another gaze, this gaze is deep and wide, after seeing this gaze, the smile on Chi Tang's face is deeper, he never thought that under the first meeting with a stranger, there will be such a feeling of heart and shadow, heart and gall match, even if it is compared to the first time Luo Yi, the leader of the Baige Gang, or the second junior brother Gan Fei who is very appreciative, this is because, in addition to their status as one of the five scholars, there is also a mystery, Inspired by thousands of years of old friendship in ancient times--- Si Lei Eagle Han Li, he looked at Han Li, and the other party was also smiling, and soon the third gaze made his heart feel a chill, this is a fierce and even aggressive gaze, directly reflected on his half-black and half-white face, Chi Tang's gaze only moved slightly, and he saw the shining pupil under the copper mask beside Han Li, there was only one pupil, the one on the right.

"I know you. After looking at Chi Tang, Yi Raccoon did not evade, but pointed to Chi Tang's cold tone.

Han Li smiled and glanced sideways at Yi Raccoon Dog, he knew that this swordsman who was only ranked below him, although Yi Raccoon had a terrifying and ugly face, and always used this copper mask to hide himself deeply, but he was an upright person, but just like the mask covered his face, he always liked to hide his heart with a cold and indifferent temperament.

"I know you, Ghost Swordsman. "For the origin of Yi Raccoon Dog, Chi Tang has also heard about it from rumors in the rivers and lakes, so he is not a stranger, but he has never intersected, and he has never met.

"To be honest, although I have indeed experienced some strange things, I always feel that you Qianjia disciples are a bit pretending to be ghosts, or they are not as strong as Lord Huan thinks. Therefore, I am very dissatisfied with the disrespectful manners you have shown in front of Lord Huan. Yi Raccoon's words were not concealed, in his heart, Huan Da Sima was a god-like existence, so the kind of non-arrogant and humble style of the disciples of the Qianjia family made him very unsightly, and he was already dissatisfied in his heart.

When Yi Raccoon was talking, Ji Rui and Xue Yang casually turned their heads to look at him, feeling a little inexplicable, the old Ji Rui smiled faintly, and Xue Yang of the village shrugged his shoulders, and there was no point in arguing, how could the world understand the etiquette of the Demon Dao?

Han Li thought about it, but he didn't say anything, although as his chief swordsman, he could easily stop Yi Raccoon Dog's rather unfriendly questioning, but because he knew Yi Raccoon Dog, and at the same time had a kind of confidence in Chi Tang, who he admired from afar, he thought that this kind of small discord was not a problem at all.

Chi Tang smiled slowly: "Fu Magic is sheng, the Qianmen Daozun, the Qianjia has been established for thousands of years, and it is not a waste of fame, but the ghost swordsman is not a fellow person, and there may be misunderstandings about this sect." As for the etiquette to the Great Sima, I am sorry that we may not be able to worship him as the people of the world do, but it does not hinder our respect for him. ”

Yi Raccoon stared at Chi Tang noncommittally: "It doesn't matter, whether you are pretending to be a ghost or really have real learning, you will have your own conclusion in the near future, rest assured, I have already been ordered by the Duke of Huan, so naturally I will not make a disobedient move." I'm interested now to see if your swordsmanship is really as strong as the legend says, like the Falcon Swordsman. ”

Chi Tang nodded lightly to Yi Raccoon Dog: "As the ghost swordsman said, these will have their own conclusions in the near future, whether it is to subdue demons and eliminate demons, or to kill the enemy, everyone can see it, now whip up and hurry, and before midnight tonight, we will rush to the Luoqiu Mountains and Forests." ”

The last words were military orders, which even the raccoon dog had to obey, the conversation was suspended, the queue accelerated, and the cries of the horses driving the war horses on the road rang out.

"As strong as a Falcon Swordsman?" In the fast-moving queue, the blood-sucking Sky Eagle was adorned with Yi Yu, and asked in a low and puzzled voice, "Who do you think he is?"

"Hearing his name and surname, as well as the posture of his sword, you still haven't recognized who he is?" Yi Raccoon looked at Fang Chitang's back in front of him and replied in a deep voice.

Chao Jiehao raised his eyes, behind him the broken army vulture Zhai Fei and the life-seeking flying crow Yin Jing also rode together, they all heard the conversation between the two, only a moment later, the three of them took a long breath at the same time, and Chaojiehao patted his forehead: "Could it be him?"

"Yes, it was him. Han Li, who was riding his horse in front, suddenly turned his head, "I haven't told you that this senior brother of the Qianjia family is none other than --- Chitang, the swordsman of Linchang." ”

※※※

The Luoqiu Mountains and Forests, the last barrier connecting the Yingshui tributaries and the straight to the Tandao Road to Dongping County, and beyond the Luoqiu Mountains and Forests, is the place where you really reach the battlefield full of swords, that is to say, you will begin to meet the enemy here, maybe it is the fierce and bloodthirsty Yanhu Iron Cavalry, maybe it is the rogue gangster who robbed the rout, and perhaps, it is the ghost sergeant who is elusive and invulnerable.

And after nearly two days of almost non-stop driving, this vanguard army has finally arrived here.

As Shen Jin, who had returned from the front line, he obviously knew best, he pointed to the sparsely wooded hill behind him, and whispered to Chi Tang: "That day, the young general killed the last two monsters that blocked the way under that hill. ”

Suddenly, a yellow shadow swooped off the horse, and rushed to the top of the hill without looking back, and Xue Yang clenched his fists and raised his arms, waving in front of the queue to signal, which was a signal to meet the enemy.
