The pursuers behind him were like tarsal maggots, following closely at a distance of more than a hundred steps. He Lianhuang sent troops to intercept and divided his troops to flee, but he could not get rid of the pursuers behind him.

When Wang Maide reminded him to let one of his bodyguards put on the fox fur, and they split into left and right to escape again, Yang Anxuan looked at Xia Qi and saw that the number of people on each side did not exceed 200. It was probably the last moment.

Yang Anxuan said to Shen Qingzhi next to him: "You lead three hundred brothers to pursue the right side. Except for Helian Bobo's son, everyone else will be killed. There is no need to keep prisoners." Xia Qi and Yang Anxuan pursued the left with more than 200 cavalry.

He Lianhuan turned back to look at the more than 200 Yongqi who were still chasing behind him, and said: "We can't run away anymore, prepare to fight to the death." After running away for nearly an hour, the horses were exhausted and began to foam at the corners of their mouths. , and after running forward for another quarter of an hour, most of the war horses would probably be exhausted, and Yong Qi behind him would have almost reached his limit.

If he dismounted and fought on foot, He Lianhuan felt that he would not have the upper hand, so he simply decided to fight between life and death while the horse still had the last bit of strength left.

The more than a hundred cavalry around him were all his own carefully selected personal guards, and the weapons in their hands were also finely forged swords, no worse than those of Yong's army. Helian Zhuang stopped and turned around, looking at the chasing Yong cavalry with hatred.

The white breath that Star Chasing Horse exhaled quickly turned into white frost. Although it had been galloping for more than an hour, Star Chasing Horse was still full of energy.

The horses ridden by the soldiers beside Yang Anxuan were all obtained from Yao Qin, and they were no worse than Xia Qi.

Seeing Xia Qi in front reining in his horse and waiting, Yang Anxuan slowed down his horse, stopped at forty steps, and looked at Xia Qi opposite.

Both sides stood in silence for several breaths. Wang Maide raised his sword and pointed forward, and Xia Qi took the lead in launching the offensive. Yang Anxuan made a long move, and Yong Qi followed him towards Xia Qi.

At a distance of forty steps, our breaths are touching each other. Hundreds of war horses passed each other with murderous intent.

Yang Anxuan pointed the long stick in his hand at Wang Maide, who was the first to charge. He was wearing iron armor and should be General Xia Qi.

Wang Maide roared loudly and tried his best to slash the sword at the pole. Yang Anxuan's hand trembled, and the piercing spear sank down, and the knife hit the empty space. Wang Meade almost threw himself off the horse, and clamped the horse's body with his legs to stabilize his body.

The long pole swept towards him, and Wang Maide reluctantly held his sword in front of him. A strong force came in. Even though Wang Maide used all his strength to clamp the horse, he could not sit on the horse and was swept off the horse by the pole.

If a Qingqi is knocked off his horse while charging, he will most likely die. Yang Anxuan ignored Wang Maide who fell off his horse, and stabbed Xia Qi with his long spear flatly.

With the help of the horse's momentum, Chang Shan easily penetrated the leather armor, revealing the tip of the spear from the back of the Xia Qi. Chang Shan shook, the body fell to the ground, and the war horse ran away with a neigh.

He Lianhuang met a Yong Jun armed with a spear, roared and slashed with his sword. Although the sword in his hand is not as good as the Dragon Bird sword, it was made by hundreds of craftsmen of Qi Qian Ali Ming and is extremely sharp.

The spear was chopped off by the scimitar, and the remaining force was slashed on the horse's neck. The war horse neighed miserably and raised its hooves, throwing Yong Jun's horse flying horizontally. The horse's blood splashed hot and dripped on Helian Guang's body. on the face.

Blood dripped to the corner of his mouth. He Lianhuang stretched out his tongue and licked the blood foam. The thick smell of blood aroused violence in his heart. Helianhuang roared like a crazy wolf and slashed at Yong Qi with a machete.

Those Xia Qi were incited by his ferocity and roared with loud killing sounds. Yang Anxuan found that these Xia Qi were extremely tough, hung up their bows and picked up their bows, and shot cold arrows from behind with Yu Fei.

A bag of arrows was shot empty, and more than a dozen Xia soldiers fell from their horses, tearing a gap behind He Lianhuang.

Helian's teeth were bared and cracked, and his handsome face was covered with blood stains, like an evil ghost.

Hearing the constant screams behind him, He Lianhuang rode his horse in a circle and headed towards Yang Anxuan. The scimitar and the long spear struck out sparks in the air, and the tip of the spear was like a poisonous snake spitting a message towards He Lianhuang's face. He Lian smashed the scimitar in his hand and slashed at Yang Anxuan's fingers. Yu Fei swung his spear from the side to hold it. The scimitar made a dull friction sound.

He Lianhuang hurriedly withdrew his sword and raised it, trying to seal the long spear outward. Yu Fei took advantage of his chest and abdomen to be exposed and thrust the spear towards Helian Huang's front.

He Lianhuan twisted his body sideways, and the tip of the spear slid past his left ribs. He paid attention to dodge the spear, but did not see Yang Anxuan's long spear smashing down from above. He Lianhuang's right knee violently knocked the war horse, and the war horse jumped to the side.

However, after a long period of galloping, the physical fitness of the war horse was severely reduced, and the pace of the jump was slower, and the pole hit He Lianhuan's left shoulder hard.

He Lianhuang's body sank. The horse was already tired and weak, and could no longer bear the pressure. Its front legs gave way and fell to the ground, knocking Helianhuang off the horse.

When the personal guards saw His Highness falling from his horse, they all stepped forward to rescue him. The long spear in Yang Anxuan's hand combined with Yu Fei's iron spear killed Xia Qi one after another and fell off his horse.

Under the desperate protection of his personal guards, He Lianhuang got on a war horse again. At this time, he was too courageous to fight anymore, so he galloped away on his horse.

When Yang Anxuan saw that he had fallen from his horse, Xia Qi came to rescue him one after another. He guessed that this person was probably the crown prince of Xia State, He Lianjuan. How could he escape?

He waved his sword to force away several Xia Qi, and urged his horse to chase after He Lianhuan. The war horse He Lianhuang was riding was exhausted and foaming at the mouth. No matter how hard he whipped it, it could not pick up the speed.

He Lianhuan used a machete to cut the horse's buttocks. The pain brought out the last potential of the horse's life and it galloped forward.

The star-chasing horse was also tired, but it still pursued forward vigorously without being whipped by Yang Anxuan. Yang Anxuan hung up his bow, picked up his bow, took an arrow in his hand, and shot forward continuously.

Helian Huang heard the scream from behind and hurriedly ducked to avoid it, then cut off the incoming cold arrow with his sword. Unexpectedly, there was no end to the cold arrows coming from behind. One of them was not paying attention and was hit in the horse's butt by the cold arrows.

The horse could no longer hold on and fell to the ground neighing miserably. He Lianhuan fell off the horse and quickly rolled up, holding a knife in a stance, hoping to hold on until the guards came to help.

Yang Anxuan handed out the long spear from the horse. He Lianhuang used the knife to thrust it out. He was shaken back several steps by the force. At this time, two Xia cavalry galloped over. One of them swung an ax at Yang Anxuan, and the other jumped off the horse. Give the horse to Helianhuan.

Chang Shan retracted back, the tip of the stick pointed on the axe, pushed the ax away, and then Chang Shan moved forward, lifting Xia Qi under the horse.

As soon as He Lianhuang mounted his horse, Yang Anxuan's long spear swept towards him. Unable to resist in a hurry, He Lianhuang had to turn over and swerve to the side of the horse.

Yang Anxuan had no intention of letting him go. He stabbed the horse's belly straight into the horse's belly. The horse neighed miserably and ran forward for several feet, splattering blood all the way. Finally, it fell to the ground and struggled. He Lianhuan returned to the ground again, this time with his left leg. The horses were pinned down and could not run.

Xia Qi had been killed more than half by Yong's army, and some of them escaped sporadically. Yu Fei and his men surrounded him. He Lianhuang just took his legs out from under the horse and saw that there was no way to escape, so he had to sit on the ground to breathe.

Soon, the remaining forty-odd prisoners were gathered together, and except for the dozen who escaped, they were all killed.

The sun shone on the bloody ground, which was particularly dazzling. Yang Anxuan jumped off the horse, patted Chai Xing lovingly, and asked someone to hold the horse aside to rest. He walked up to the group of Xia army prisoners, looked at He Lianhuang and asked, "Who are you?" Helianhuang closed his eyes and gasped. language.

Wang Maide was knocked off his horse by Yang Anxuan but did not die. He was also escorted over. Seeing Yang Anxuan asking questions, he stood up and responded: "You are the prince of Xia, He Lianjuan." Yang Anxuan laughed loudly and said: "I heard that the Lord of Xia, He Lianhuang, is the prince of Xia." Lian Bobo is handsome, and he is only thirty-six this year. If you are He Lianjuan, wouldn’t it be that Lord Xia has a son before he is born, and you are really sorry for Lord Xia with your appearance.” Wang Maide bowed his head and said nothing. , Yang Anxuan asked twice more, but when no one answered, he sneered: "Since they are all unknown people, let them be killed by fools." Shen Qingzhi signaled the soldiers beside him to grab five Xia soldiers from the crowd, and pierced their abdomens with steel knives. Then, blood spurted out, and the dead body fell to the ground and twitched.

Yang Anxuan said coldly: "Kill them all." Five more Xia soldiers were captured and also beheaded to the ground. The remaining Xia army became restless and wanted to fight desperately. Yu Fei waited with his bow and shot several arrows, taking away several lives.

Seeing the soldiers around him being killed mercilessly, Helian Guang looked at Yang Anxuan's cold-as-frozen look, and it seemed that he really planned to kill everyone, so he had to stand up and said: "I am He Lianjuan, the crown prince of the Xia Kingdom. Yang Anxuan sneered: "If you don't say anything, I will kill you too. Since you admit your identity, the identity of Prince Xia is of some use." He Lianhuang looked at the soldiers lying in a pool of blood. Still twitching, he bit the bullet and said: "Let these soldiers go, I am willing to obey the arrangement." Yang Anxuan smiled and said: "I want you to open the city of Quail. If you can do it, I will spare your life." The city is run by Chi Hu Lei, a close confidant of He Lianhuang, but if he helps Yang Anxuan deceive him into opening Quaigu City, let alone retaining his position as the crown prince, there is no doubt whether his father Khan can spare his life.

Seeing that He Lian Huang was hesitant, Yang Anxuan waved his hand, and the sharp steel knife once again passed through the chest and abdomen of the remaining Xia Qi. The screams made He Lian Huang tremble. It seemed that if he didn't agree to Yang Anxuan, he would not be able to survive now, so he could only nod. promise.

Wang Maide let out a long sigh and remained silent. At the end of the year, a group of light cavalry, about four to five hundred people, came from outside the east gate of Quaigu City.

At this time, it was already dark, and the defenders on the top of the city quickly notified the guard general Chi Hu Lei. There was a moon in the sky, and from the top of the city one could vaguely see the light cavalry under the city. They were dressed in Xia army uniforms. The group of light cavalry galloped to the city gate. Someone shouted towards the city head: "Quickly open the city, the prince is here." Earlier. At some point, the fleeing Xia army entered the city. Chihu Lei knew that Helian Guang's troops had been robbed and killed by the Yong army. It was already dark, so Chihu Lei did not dare to open the city gate, so he had someone shout: "You guys are waiting. Rest outside the city for the time being, and then let you enter the city after daybreak." With a sharp knife pressed against his waist, He Lianhuan rode his horse to the bottom of the city wall, raised his head and shouted: "Hey, why don't you open the city gate quickly? They want me to starve and freeze outside the city." Someone held up a torch to illuminate Helian's face. Chi Hu Lei looked at it carefully for a long time. At this time, Wang Maide was also escorted over and was forced to shout: "Chi Hu Lei General Hu, I am Wang Maide, and I was drinking with you half a month ago." Wang Maide was more recognizable. Seeing the two of them together, Chi Hulei believed that it was indeed He Lianhuang who was under the city. He shouted: "Your Highness, wait a moment, I will open the city gate to welcome you." Half a quarter of an hour later, the city gate opened, and Chihu Lei galloped towards the light. More than ten steps away, he could see clearly that it was Helian Guang under the light of the torch. He said with a smile: "I am late to welcome you, Your Highness. Please forgive me." Seeing that Chi Hu Lei was only seven or eight steps away, Shen Qing's prancing horse beside He Lianhuang galloped out, and in the blink of an eye he came to Chi Hu Lei Horse In front of him, he raised his knife and cut Chihu Lei in half.

Yang Anxuan raised his head, and hundreds of light cavalry behind him shot toward Quaigu City like arrows off their strings. Yang Anxuan and Yu Fei escorted He Lianhuang and others into the city. Under the threat of swords and guns, Helianhuang shouted loudly: "Put down the swords and guns, there is no need to resist." Outside the city, there were already soldiers of the Yong Army firing Dysprosium rockets. In just one cup of tea, a large group of Yong troops entered the city along the east gate, and the city of Quail was easily obtained.
