Chapter 173: Attacked

Yandu, more than 400 miles from the Diling Mountains, is a humerus city in the east of the Kaiyuan Empire of the Chinese Dynasty, close to the southwest border, its terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, known as the danger of a man when the pass is not opened! Its military status in the Chinese Dynasty is second only to the imperial capital Kaiyuan and the western Luoxia, which can be called the third foot of the imperial capital!

At the same time, the so-called Yandu, the third foot of the Chinese Dynasty Empire, is also the only way to drive from Luoxia Town in the west to Kaiyuan City, the imperial capital of the Chinese Dynasty!

Outside the city of Yandu, there are continuous green mountains, lush forests and ancient trees, should be connected to the sky, a rather wide long river runs through it, the clear mountains and rivers surging impact the river arrogantly standing sharp and oily cyan mountain stones, a variety of sounds.

The sound of impact can be heard clearly from miles apart, stirring in the ancient wood ridge where Gao Song goes straight into the clouds, and the sound of dust control is quite shocking!

More than ten miles outside the city of Yandu, it suddenly wrinkled, it was a broken arm cliff up to 100 meters wide!

This cliff just cuts the official road leading to the outside world into two sections!

Both sides of the bank are steep, look down from top to bottom, dozens of zhang are still faintly visible, the more down, you only see a layer of mist and mist, the bottom is not visible, a sound of temptation echoes between the cliffs for a hundred turns, and can not be calmed down for a long time!

Looking at the overgrown weeds on both sides of the river, the wide long river that surrounds the mountains comes to an abrupt end here, and the turbulent river rushes out from top to bottom, forming a silver white practice, hanging waterfall, piercing through the mist, through the void, straight to the bottom of the cliff!

Looking from afar, it is a magnificent scene!

Not far from this waterfall, a long iron bridge hangs in the air, connecting the official road on both sides of the cliff.

The chain bridge is paved with neat and wide wooden planks, which are so tightly integrated that at first glance it is difficult to see where the wooden planks meet, which can be called a ghost axe!

And the whole bridge is about more than a foot wide, the iron cable is the bottom, and the bridge body inlaid with wooden planks sinks slightly, swaying slightly between the cliffs, which is quite thrilling!

And at the bridge rope on the side of the Yandu, there stands a gray stone stele, on which are crookedly engraved three characters [Nirvana Stream]! Probably due to the erosion of the years, the three words have been somewhat blurred, out of a stream character, if the other two words are not close to the face, they are not recognizable at all!

If there is no such suspension bridge in this Nirvana Stream, I am afraid that the passing business travelers who come and go to Yandu can only look at the stream and sigh again.

"Wow~Wow~W~!"

The horse's hooves are on the ground, and the sound of footsteps is faintly heard from far and near, as if a large group of people and horses are rushing towards Nirvana!

After a while, Jin Ge touched, and the sound of the iron horse escaping to the ground came clearly!

Originally, it was a column of more than 300 heavily armed Chinese Dynasty cavalry, coming from outside Yancheng! In the middle of the queue, there were more than a dozen carriages, and I don't know what was placed in the middle.

"Report!"

A sonorous and powerful shout broke the silence again.

Then the sound of the Jin Ge Iron Horse stopped abruptly, and the hundreds of cavalry fell silent in an instant, except for the slight gasping sound of the war horse, there was no other noise!

"General Qiyu, you have reached Nirvana, how to act, please ask the general to decide!"

A cavalryman turned his horse's head, and within a few steps, he dismounted, held a steel knife at his waist, knelt on one foot, and said respectfully to a middle-aged man in black armor and armed with a spear in the middle of the procession.

The man frowned slightly, and said coldly: "The mountains and mountains outside the Yandu City, this Nirvana Stream is even more famous, and there are many rogues, we are waiting to escort the barbarian tribute from the west into Kaiyuan, and I am afraid that it has already attracted the attention of many ill-intentioned murderers along the way, but we are forced to wait for the strong combat strength, and we have not dared to do it, if we rush to this bridge at this time, and those rogues take the opportunity to make a move, I am afraid it will be difficult to end well, it is really tricky!"

If Lu Li was here, he would definitely be surprised to see this middle-aged general, because this person was none other than Nie Mingyuan, the young master of the Nie family, who was still fighting at the Luoxia border a few months ago!

It turned out that for some reason, the barbarian country suddenly ordered to withdraw its troops, withdrew from the Luoxia border a hundred miles away, and ordered people to send a large number of items, claiming to pay tribute to the Chinese Dynasty, and never go to war again.

And Bian General Nie Mingyuan was ordered by the Emperor of the People to transport these barbarian tributes to Yandu, and then there was this scene in front of him!

"Has the person sent by the Yandu County Guard to answer him arrived?"

Nie Mingyuan pondered for a while and asked.

"General Qiyu, Master Yao Feiyan has passed a book saying that he is on his way here, and I believe he will arrive soon!"

Nie Mingyuan nodded, turned around and ordered: "All the soldiers listen to the order, dismount and rest, and wait for the response in Yandu City!"

"Woo~!"

Hundreds of people dismounted at the same time, and almost only one voice was heard!

Luoxia's border cavalry is obviously disciplined and well-trained, and it is well deserved!

However, just as these cavalrymen were placing their horses, there was a sudden change in the field!

"Whoosh~!"

A sharp arrow breaks through the air and hits the cavalry camp directly!

The arrow wind is magnificent, the gang wind is faint, and it reaches the peak.

"Soldiers, be careful, there is an ambush!"

Nie Mingyuan deserves to be a master of reaching the pinnacle of the peak realm, and he immediately discovered that something was wrong and shouted!

At the same time as Nie Mingyuan's violent rise, one of the personal guards cavalry beside him also fell in response, it turned out that the life-killing arrow just now was running for Nie Mingyuan's life, but he keenly avoided the past, but the personal guards around him suffered because of this!

The realm of the archers was extraordinary, and an arrow pierced the head of the personal guard cavalry, and the cavalry collapsed to the ground softly, leaving a piercing blood hole on his forehead!

"Reach the top!"

Everything happened in the light of light, and the dead cavalry didn't even have a chance to speak!

It's so fast that except for Nie Mingyuan, who is a general, he and all the soldiers haven't reacted yet!

Nie Mingyuan was furious, and immediately roared: "What a gut!"

"All the soldiers are ready to fight the enemy, the rogue methods are ruthless, don't leave your hands, there is no forgiveness for killing!"

Nie Mingyuan scolded, mixed with the faint innate qi, and all the soldiers were stunned!

"Rub it!"

The steel knife was unsheathed, Jin Ge struck, and a sound of iron armor suddenly sounded!

"Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh......"

This time, however, it was no longer an arrow feather, but a rain of arrows!

The sharp arrows were as dense as raindrops, and they went towards Nie Mingyuan and the other soldiers for their lives!

Immediately, dull cries of pain and screams came one after another!

After a short period of panic, Nie Mingyuan's cavalry team of hundreds of people was worthy of being an army that had been baptized in war, and it was already able to resist and dodge the invasion of those arrows!

But after all, flesh and blood, after all, there is no danger to be prepared, although this Nie Mingyuan's personal guard cavalry of more than 300 people is also a tiger and wolf army that plunders the enemy's life on the battlefield, but in this case, it still seems a little thin!

I don't know how many people and horses are in ambush in the forest, I don't know how many bows and arrows I have, in short, at this moment, the rain of arrows is lifeless to wash away these battle-hardened iron-blooded men, or I see these soldiers fall one after another, there is no way!

"Guts rats, there is a kind of life and death with Ben Jiang!

Nie Mingyuan slashed his palm, and the fierce wind cut off a sharp arrow that hit the door of life, and roared angrily at the forest!

But this roar, not only did it not have any effect, but it made those arrows shoot more quickly and violently!

"Quick, get on the horse and cross the bridge, don't pay attention to the tribute for the time being, I'll rush across the bridge in one go, as long as the reinforcements in Yandu City arrive, we will be able to recapture the tribute!"

Seeing that the situation could not be achieved, Nie Mingyuan immediately made a decision, made a trade-off, and ordered it to be clear!

Leaving more than a dozen people to resist, the remaining 100 people got on their horses and galloped, riding in two rows, galloping towards the bridge!

"General Nie, it seems that you are still waiting for Lord Yao in this Yandu City to come and answer you, but in my opinion, he should not be able to come!"

However, when the first dozen cavalry jumped on the wooden plank of the chain bridge, a group of nearly 1,000 armed men and horses holding ice blades rushed out on the other side of the bridge, surrounding the bridgehead, looking at Nie Mingyuan, who wanted to cross the bridge and seize the road, more than 100 people, staring at each other!
