Chapter 40: Stay Here

Yeguo Huling Pass.

Dong Haoyu sent thirty reckless soldiers from the rivers and lakes into the Huling Pass in the middle of the night, trying to take advantage of the night to put his cavalry into the city.

The speed of the cavalry, although not fast, is definitely not slow either.

Soon, five thousand Qi light horsemen came to the city gate.

At this time, the thirty or so soldiers stepped forward one after another, and without saying a word, they completely opened the city gates.

The leading general of the Qi State Light Cavalry did not doubt him, and with a wave of his hand, five thousand light cavalry poured into the city.

But just as these people entered the city, the city gate was suddenly shut.

Suddenly, a series of whistles rang out all around, and then, countless Ye soldiers poured out from the city walls, under the city walls, on the roofs of houses on both sides of the streets, and under the houses, and one torch after another was also lit, illuminating the city as bright as day.

Qi Guo's light cavalry was flustered for a while, and he didn't understand what was going on.

At this time, a man who looked to be in his thirties walked out of the crowd with a long-handled knife and a hanger.

"Master Meng guessed right, you Qi dogs really came to sneak attack. ”

At this moment, even a fool can understand that he has fallen into the trap of Ye Jun.

The leading general of the Qi State Light Cavalry exclaimed in surprise, and instinctively looked back at the people standing at the city gate.

At this time, there was a firelight, and when I looked closely, where was General Dong's personal guards, it was clearly a group of Ye soldiers wearing ordinary people's clothes and tying black cloth strips on their arms at the moment.

Looking down, it turned out that on both sides of the city gate hole, there were more than 30 corpses lying horizontally and vertically, and these corpses were all pierced by arrows without exception.

It's just that these arrows came very quickly, and those people were shot without even reacting, and it looked like a master had done it.

Meng Feihang also looked at the edge of the leaf beside him at this time, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing: "General Ye's hand of beaded arrows really opened Meng's eyes." ”

Hearing this, Ye Bian only chuckled.

Ye Bian is not a Confucian general, he was also a famous figure on the battlefield when he was only in his twenties, but in the last ten years, because he was sent to Huling Pass, everyone has forgotten this.

Ye Bian's strength is between the realm of a third-grade minor grandmaster and a second-grade grandmaster, but his martial arts attainments are not in his fists and feet, but in his arrows.

Just like just now, when he took advantage of the lack of preparation of the more than 30 personal soldiers, he shot more than 30 arrows in a row, and with these 30 or so arrows, he killed all the more than 30 Jianghu martial artists from the highest rank to the top four grades.

With this ability, it is enough for Meng Feihang to be convinced.

However, he was also very convinced by this young man, if it wasn't for Meng Feihang's prediction in advance that the Qi army would definitely make a move, then once he let his own soldiers go down to rest in shifts, and he was unprepared at night, he would inevitably be killed by the other party with one blow.

Once these 5,000 light horsemen are allowed to enter the city, if they cannot regain control of the city gate before the opponent's army arrives, then the Huling Pass will definitely be lost.

As I said before, Huling Pass is the only way for Qi to enter Ye State, and it is also an important place for Ye State to defend against Qi State.

At this time, the five thousand light cavalry of the Qi State had been surrounded by the Ye army, and the city gate was closed by the Ye army.

The leading general of the Qi army's light cavalry gritted his teeth, drew his sword and shouted: "Brothers, kill with me!"

This general of the Qi army is not a person who does nothing, although he is deeply trapped in the enemy camp, he is not afraid.

He knew very well that the cavalry had a condescending advantage against the infantry, although he only had 5,000 people, but these 5,000 men and horses were all cavalry, even if they couldn't kill the opponent, but there was no problem in breaking out of the encirclement.

In the past, the infantry of the Ye army really had nothing to do with the cavalry, after all, the cavalry had a condescending advantage against the infantry.

But the infantry they faced against was not only the ordinary infantry of Ye State, but also the veterans of the Northwest Army.

As early as when Meng Feihang thought of this, he had already discussed with Yan Tianrui, a veteran of the Northwest Army, what to pay attention to when the cavalry played against the infantry.

Yan Tianrui said lightly: "I think when I fought against the desert barbarians in the northwest, the easiest way was to roll on the ground and cut the horse's legs, as long as the cavalry fell off the horse, it was not as good as the infantry." ”

Yan Tianrui said so, and he did the same.

This time in Huling Pass, in addition to the 3,500 people who were taken away by Chu Yujia, there were also nearly 3,000 veterans of the Northwest Army.

Without exception, these veterans of the Northwest Army were at the front of the crowd, and at the moment when the opposing cavalry was ready to start, Yan Tianrui shouted: "Brothers, kill with me!"

As soon as the words fell, Yan Tianrui took the lead and carried a long-handled broadsword and smashed into the light cavalry of the Qi army.

Seeing him rushing forward, one of the Qi army light horsemen subconsciously lifted his spear and stabbed it, but before his shot fell, Yan Tianrui rolled close to the ground, and the diameter reached the cavalry's horse.

Yan Tianrui didn't say a word, and slashed at the leg of the war horse, and the war horse neighed, and fell to the ground.

The cavalryman also fell from his horse by his inertia, and was thrown to pieces, and before he could get up from the ground, an old soldier of the Northwest Army who came over cut off his head.

The veterans of the Northwest Army rolled on the ground one by one like earthworms close to the ground, they did not go to the cavalry on horseback, and specifically attacked the legs of the horses, each of them rolled around on the ground like a ball of meat, but everywhere they passed, there were always the war horses of the Qi army neighing to the ground.

The war horse that lost its leg was painful, but the knight on the horse was even more painful, and fell from the horse to the ground, and the man was shocked and almost lost half his life.

In fact, the biggest disadvantage of the infantry against the cavalry is not condescending, but the impact of the war horse.

For example, in terms of flexibility, the infantry is more flexible than the cavalry, and when the veterans of the Northwest Army rushed up, the Ye army infantry in the back also rushed forward and surrounded the five thousand odd soldiers.

In just an instant, the light cavalry of the Qi Kingdom fell in a large area, and the roars of the war horses and the shouts of the people came and went.

When the generals of the Qi army led by him saw this scene, their eyes were about to fall out.

When did he deal with veterans of the Northwest Army?

Even if he had seen a few veterans of the Northwest Army in the national war before, he only felt that these soldiers were far from being comparable to ordinary soldiers, but today really opened his eyes.

At the moment when he was stunned, two veterans of the Northwest Army had already rushed to his horse close to the ground.

The cooperation between the veterans of the Northwest Army was close, and the moment they got close to the general's war horse, the two knives came out together, and he was pitiful when he stepped off the war horse and kicked it all together, and the war horse fell and turned him down at the same time.

The tall general of the Qi army fell to the ground like a boulder crashing to the ground, making a loud noise and kicking up a cloud of dust.

The two veterans of the Northwest Army rushed to him, one of them used a knife to pick his eyes, and the other swung a knife to slash his neck.

But the commander who can lead the army, is it an ordinary person?

The moment he landed, the general threw away his spear, and then slapped the ground with one hand, and the whole person bounced off the ground.

The man was still in mid-air, and the long knife was already unsheathed.

The waning moon-shaped light flashed away, and the poor two veterans of the Northwest Army did not react, and they were swept around the neck by this knife.

The general of the Qi army looked at the two people who were covering their necks to the end and snorted coldly, and then waved the war knife in his hand again and again, killing several veterans of the Northwest Army in a row.

Just as he was about to kill, he heard an angry rebuke, and then he saw a man with the same strong physique running towards him with a long sword.

From the other party's steps, he could see that the other party's skills were not simple, especially the powerful sword as if it was about to open a mountain and crack a rock.

The face of the general of the Qi army changed, and he immediately dodged sideways.

Swish!

The long-handled war knife almost slashed against the shoulder of the general of the Qi army, and the middle of the knife fell to the ground, cutting a hole in the bluestone ground.

Seeing this scene, the generals of the Qi army did not dare to slack off, hurriedly took two steps, and began to look at the people again.

The man withdrew his long knife and looked like a hanger, wearing the armor of an ordinary soldier, except for the blow just now, it seemed to be no different from an ordinary Ye sergeant.

It's just that the generals of this Qi army know that this person is not as simple as it seems.

If he wasn't born with divine power, he would have attained quite a high level of martial arts.

If it's the former, it's okay to say, but if it's the latter, he must be here today.

When the words fell, the man rushed up towards the general of the Qi army with a long-handled broadsword, and without saying a word, he slashed down again.

Like the last time, the generals of the Qi army withdrew and dodged again, but the man did not stop attacking like the last time, but slashed down one after another, one knife after another, and one knife faster than another.

In the end, the generals of the Qi army were really forced to have no choice but to raise their knives to parry, and that heavy knife really made the generals of the Qi army a little unbearable.

After the first knife, the general of the Qi army felt that his arms were numb, and after the second knife, the general of the Qi army felt that his arms were a little unable to lift.

Stubbornly took the third knife, and the generals of the Qi army felt that their heads were a little dizzy.

When the fourth knife came down, the Qi army general spurted out a mouthful of blood.

The man took advantage of the victory to pursue, and at the moment when the general of the Qi army retreated backwards, he picked up the long-handled broadsword and slapped it horizontally on the head of the general of the Qi army.

Syllable!

The heads of the generals of the Qi army burst on the spot like watermelons, and the red and white streams were all over the ground, which made people feel sick and sick to their stomachs when they saw it.

The man looked at the corpse of the general of the Qi army and narrowed his eyes, and then said with a sneer: "Since you are here, don't leave, Ye Guo has good wind and water, so stay here......"
