Chapter 62: Sweeping the Vanguard
After a long gallop, Shen Mad's speed has become slower, and the mount is just trotting all the way.
Ryu Ping'er's patience overcomes her impulse, and she guards Fluttershy behind her, urging her to follow.
Shen Mad was no longer as chaotic as when the fast horse was galloping, and his mind swayed from side to side for a long time before he made a decision - now it was only a one-day rush to the destination they were going to, but the pursuers behind would also catch up before they arrived, such a big battle was not a fight of several martial arts people's lives. Surrounded by the chaotic army, the rain of arrows flying all over the sky, and the swords coming and going without roots, Shen Mad seemed to have seen the great battle between the pursuers and them. Fluttershy and Cai'er are in a desperate situation, and Shen Mad can't let this big battle happen, so he chooses to go to Broken Sword Villa a day later, and they can't take it with them to Broken Sword Villa.
Shen Mad walked his horse and ran, looked back at Chang Yuheng who was following behind, Chang Yuheng willingly caught up and rode with Shen Mad together, every time he fell behind, he just didn't want to let Shen Mad be disturbed by his own speed of travel, Shen Mad is undoubtedly the leader of this team's action, he has his own wisdom and experience to lay the foundation for fast and slow, and choose the road to judge.
Shen Yan had already whispered, "Yu Heng can remember that we were in danger in Tongjiang two years ago?"
Chang Yuheng's eyes had a glow, that was one of his few actions, the Sword Sect's forces went far into Sichuan and Shu, and their tentacles probed Dazhou, but there was a problem with Pingchang, and they were inadvertently entangled in the cracks of the local forces.
Chang Yuheng's eyes were a little stupid, as if he had returned to the quiet and exciting assassination, one side of the forces were nothing more than some reckless men and villains in Shen Mad's eyes, overnight, a few minds died mysteriously, one side of the force almost collapsed, and the rest of the other side of the force could be easily solved.
An assassination Chang Yuheng remembered that he was because of the first real experience, and it was because of this that he was promoted to the altar master.
Chang Yuheng smiled and replied unconsciously: "Of course I remember!"
Chang Yuheng just finished answering, but he lost his smile again, and kept looking at Shen Mad with a side face, that operation was so smooth, but they encountered an extremely dangerous thing in the Tongjiang Realm of the Circuit, thinking that this is not Chang Yuheng's shameful past, facing the enemy and powerful, before he participated in the real battle, he was stunned by the opponent's palm, and then woke up in a farmhouse under the Tongjiang River and the Thousand Buddha Cliffs, as for how Shen Mad took him to escape but didn't know anything, it was later told by Shen Mad .
Chang Yuheng came back to his senses, and Shen Mad said again at this time: "Yuheng, this is already the boundary of the Nanjiang River, our pursuers are officials, and they can't move forward, you take Fluttershy and them to the southeast, go to the town, and then go all the way to the Thousand Buddha Cliffs, find a nearby village to settle down, I will go south the same way, take the pursuers with me, if I can't reach at night, then don't wait for me, you will rush to Pyeongchang at dawn, and turn back to Enyang all the way." ”
Chang Yuheng looked at Shen Mad, he knew what Shen Mad meant by not waiting for me, and hurriedly said, "Brother Shen, I'll go, I'm not familiar with this area." ”
Shen Mad smiled and continued: "Yu Heng, just take it as an order, you can't take them away, I'll stay by myself." ”
Chang Yuheng looked at Shen Mad helplessly, he didn't want to wait for Shen Mad to provoke it, with his strength, he couldn't take the pursuers behind him away.
Shen Mad's mount had completely stopped, Chang Yuheng also stopped, Shen Mad smiled, patted Chang Yuheng lightly with his probe, and said, "It's decided, their vanguard is almost here." ”
Chang Yuheng nodded silently, and Fluttershy and Liu Ping'er had already caught up, pulling the reins to stop, Shen Madness turned the horse's head back, and said to Fluttershy, "Fluttershy, we're going to take the path, be careful with the horse, don't fall." ”
Fluttershy has adjusted along the way, and has some confidence in the horse, and she sounds confident and says, "It's okay Uncle Shen, I'll be careful." ”
Shen Mad smiled and nodded, came to Liu Ping'er, and said, "The pursuers have arrived, let Fluttershy and the others go first, and we will stop the first group of pursuers." ”
Liu Ping'er nodded, and Shen Mad said to Chang Yuheng again: "Yuheng take Fluttershy and them to go first, be careful!"
Chang Yuheng controlled the horse over, unconsciously looked at Shen Mad a few more times, and then made up his mind, and said: "Brother Shen take care, we will wait for you!"
Shen Mad nodded in response, Chang Yuheng had already controlled the horse and got off the road, and Xiao Fluttershy also heard Shen Mad say that the pursuers had arrived, but she didn't know a lot of things, she just thought that Sun Fan and the people from the Sword Alliance were chasing her, and her face was solemn and nervous, and she said, "Uncle Shen, be careful yourself, come back quickly." ”
Shen Mad responded, and Fluttershy followed Chang Yuheng to the south path, passing by Liu Ping'er and just saying 'We'll wait for you', but the look in her eyes was a tangled expression of emotion—worried, nervous, reluctant, and reluctant to speak.
Liu Ping'er turned her head and watched Chang Yuheng lead Fluttershy to drive through a depression and go off into the distance.
Shen Mad whispered, "Let's go, let's wait for them in front." ”
Liu Ping'er's eyes were lonely, she didn't say anything, and urged the horse to follow Shen Mad to the front.
Chen Xiong was already sitting on the side of the road, Liang Qiyun and the Ningqiang land boundary reinforcements last night, leading the team of hundreds of household chiefs and Cao Huan also sat here, and a few dozen meters back was the neat ironclad cavalry sitting along the road to rest, the horses were grazing on the fields on both sides, and on the other side of the road were idle officials chatting in groups of threes and threes.
The soldiers who marched all the way could hold on, but the horses couldn't stand it anymore, Chen Xiong and Liang Qiyun had to let everyone rest on the spot, the forward team continued to chase, and Zhang Qiang and Li Donghui also followed.
Zhang Qiang and Li Donghui's horses were originally sent by the Yamen, and their horses were a little unbearable at this time, unlike the ironclad vanguard group, and the military camp was also a good supply for them.
After a while, Zhang Qiang's horse has slowed down significantly, Li Donghui of course also slowed down when he saw this, he thought the same as Zhang Qiang, if the horse was tired and fell on the road, would they let them run behind!
The twelve iron horsemen in the front group had no intention of slowing down, Zhang Qiang simply pulled the reins of the horse, the horse neighed, rushed forward with both hooves in the air, and stopped a few meters away.
Li Donghui's mount had rushed to the front, and he stopped in a hurry, and then turned the horse's head back, Zhang Qiang said with some resentment: "Let them chase them, let's run after the tired horse?"
Li Donghui had come to the front, Zhang Qiang had already turned over and dismounted, Li Donghui was about to turn over and dismount, but the forward cavalry, which had been more than 200 meters away in front, suddenly became chaotic, and the neighing of the two horses continued to spread far and wide.
Zhang Qiang was busy turning over and getting on his horse, and Li Donghui had already urged the horse to run forward.
The forward cavalry had scattered in all directions, some on the road, some on the grass by the roadside.
The two horses that had been smashed out fell to the ground one after another, and the two figures had followed the smashed iron horse to the middle of the cavalry.
The iron cavalry neighed miserably, and his whole body flew out sideways, and the screams of the ironclad cavalry were not much less than the neighing of the horses, and the long weapon in his hand was just removed from the side of the horse, and he threw it into the air and scattered.
Liu Ping'er's hands had reached out to grab the legs of the iron rider on the left, straightened his waist and turned his body, and his hands spread out after the strength of his arms was transmitted, and before the other two hooves of the iron cavalry could kick Liu Ping'er's hands, his body flew out sideways with a muffled sound, with a miserable hissing and screaming! A pair of iron cavalry and two ironclad cavalry crashed into a pile, and went sideways, the long weapon roared sharply, and flew away without accuracy.
Seeing this, the two nearby ironclad cavalry screamed, and the ironclad cavalry fled westward.
A figure had already jumped up in the chaotic flying armor, and volleyed towards the two fleeing cavalrymen, and the cavalryman on the left reacted quickly, and raised his broadsword in a panic.
Liu Ping'er's volley figure, his left foot gathered, and when the broadsword swept away, he stepped on the blade, and the ironclad cavalry's broadsword that could not be picked up with all his strength met a powerful force and was trampled back.
The figure of the ironclad cavalry turned to the side with the sword, and before he could fully feel the pain caused by the writhing, he felt as if a large stone had fallen above his head, and he fell off his horse with a muffled snort. Another ironclad cavalryman's broadsword had been raised, and before the knife could be drawn, Liu Ping'er had already fallen towards him, and in the scream, he dragged the knife and was kicked out sideways.
Shen Mad jumped on the grass on the side of the road and fled, and the ironclad cavalry who reacted at the moment rushed towards him.
In just an instant, Shen Mad rushed to the slashing broadsword, his figure flashed, the big knife slashed into the air, the iron cavalry hissed miserably, the iron armor smashed by Shen Mad with a punch was deformed, and his body flew out in volley, but the body of the ironclad cavalry leaning towards Shen Mad was not taken away, and was grabbed by Shen Mad with an iron fist.
Shen Mad reached for the hilt of the knife with his left hand, turned around and transmitted the force to his right hand, and the ironclad cavalry flew out in a daze in the scream.
A scream rang out again, and another ironclad cavalryman who had been besieged by his horse and knife was also knocked out by his companion and vomited blood, and even his men and horses fell to the ground.
With such a formation, the devastating battle, the tragedy of people howling and neighing, the last remaining ironclad cavalry on Shen Mad's side had fled with a scream, and the big knife that Shen Madness had grabbed in his hand had roared away.
The fleeing ironclad cavalry also met the last scream of the ironclad, screaming that it was smashed under the ironhorse, and the ironclad cavalry turned over again before it was gone, and the ironclad cavalry was carried out with its feet.
Zhang Qiang and Chen Xiong opened their eyes and forced the horses to stop, and they were already turning over on their backs, and they were screaming and neighing in their ears, Liu Ping'er was already dragging a big knife, and his eyes were condensed and slowly walked over.
