There are no lights in the wilderness on a spring night, and the light of the sword stops with the moon.
No matter the hundred and two soldiers, the group of fifty or sixty horse thieves, or the woman who had already ridden away on horseback, none of them held fire. They only relied on the bright moonlight in the sky to identify the road and watch the enemy, which required amazing eyesight.
The horse thieves wandering in the desert sand, due to the extremely strong wind and sand, could catch a glimpse of the ability of the soldiers who came to suppress them from ten miles away. They were in a huge sand waterfall that could turn everything upside down, and they could not see clearly. Such a loss of vision However, it seems more insignificant, so it is not important. In contrast, horse thieves outside the desert usually choose the deeper part of the night to take advantage of people's rest and sleep to carry out the act of robbing homes and merchants. , so it requires excellent eyesight to accomplish anything.
What's more, Yizhang's soldiers are particularly strong. Even ordinary horse thieves, no matter how rampant and brave they are, can't fight against Yizhang's armor-clad soldiers. Horses plundered randomly from the market and the countryside are even more difficult to fight. Countless coins were bought from Dayuan to compare the strength of the generals' horses, so their eyesight was a rare means of evading the soldiers who suppressed the bandits. If you can really see the soldiers from a distance of fifty or sixty miles, it will be difficult to find these horse thieves who are very familiar with the terrain. Therefore, the eyesight of horse thieves is much better than that of ordinary people.
Captain Jia could see where this group of thieves were coming from at a glance, and that was also why fifty or sixty horsemen were rushing down the mountain together. They should have been stampeding like thunder before the rain, but when he heard it, there were only very small pieces of sound. The muffled sound, or even the formation of dozens of people, was not as clear and deafening as the sound of the horse's hooves driven by the woman in front. This was probably because straw had been placed under the hoofs of the uneven horses in advance to avoid disturbing the merchants and pedestrians.
The two places coincide, and the origins of the fifty or sixty riders are all firmly established.
In the blink of an eye, fifty or sixty horsemen were already like clouds and snow. They stepped twenty steps in front of the hundred and second soldiers, but none of them stopped. Instead, they took advantage of the momentum of the galloping horses down the mountain to line up. He rushed straight towards the armor in front of him. He had no intention of running away like an ordinary horse thief when he saw the soldiers. Instead, he was extremely stubborn and unstoppable.
Lieutenant Jia stood up in his iron armor, and when he saw the horse thieves rushing towards him, he smiled slightly.
One hundred and two soldiers lined up in three lines, the details of which were beyond the comprehension of this group of ordinary horse thieves in the western border of Yizhang.
The first marching soldier saw that the horse had reached ten steps in front of him, and remained motionless. He still dragged the sword in his hand behind him, and only used one arm to protect his forehead. The forty soldiers behind him all stepped on the back of the former's sword with one foot and jumped up. He got up, and the light of the sword struck the horse's head and feet in an instant.
Just after the first confrontation between the two sides, more than thirty horses had their flesh cut open with a knife, and more than ten of them had their throats cut off and were smashed into the earth and rocks.
Blood splashed, and the soldiers in the front row had already drawn their swords, and thrust the swords in their palms into the chests and throats of the horse thieves who had not yet taken off their mounts.
From the second row of soldiers leaping out to cut off the horses' throats or front legs with their swords, to the first row of soldiers wielding their swords to kill a group of horse thieves, the dull sound of hoofbeats stopped abruptly.
Rolling thunder came together, but two swords cut off the thunder, leaving only blood splashing and dim, and the moonlight was unclear.
"It is indeed a good method." The remaining ten riders staggered away. One of them slowly urged the horse forward, his tone was still calm and steady, and there was no hint of his mood. "I have heard for a long time that it is difficult for Yizhang's army to find an opponent in an infantry battle. Today, See, it’s really extraordinary, I’m afraid even if we use the cavalry of the Yuan Dynasty, we still have the capital to fight.”
Captain Jia smiled, raised the long sword he held in his left palm, put it on his shoulder, and continued with the sound of the swords and armors clashing, "The Yuan tribe has strong soldiers and horses, so they are naturally capable of fighting with me, Yizhang. However, the covenant still exists. Since you are a practitioner of Dayuan, you should know that you should not act recklessly in the territory of Yizhang Kingdom. The immortal masters who practice should also understand the rules of doing as the Romans do when they go to the countryside. How can horses and thieves fight together to find the right path?"
There was no fear inside and outside the words.
The man didn't care, he just stroked his wolf tail bundle around his waist and replied with a smile, "With that covenant in the world, you can come and go freely. Ordinary merchants can come. How can I not come? What's more, I don't know how." Doing business and traveling around the world of Yizhang, I think it will be good."
The captain stood in the wind and curled his lips, "One is a junior captain in the army, and the other is an immortal who knows how to practice. The two of us are no better than those literati who talk about words. If I want to protect the woman in front of me, the immortal What do you think, Master?"
The man dressed very strangely nodded, turned the horse's head slightly, raised the whip with one hand and turned twice, "The road is facing the sky, everyone goes to one side. Brother has never seen me, and I have never seen brother."
"Farewell." The captain said, but did not salute.
The iron gun struck the man's back in an instant, causing a roar of wind. It hit the man's palm just in time. The gun tip suddenly shattered. The broken gun tip exploded into several fragments, which almost penetrated into the man's chest. Fortunately, It was only because the formation was deployed that his whole body was protected.
From the beginning to the end, the man never moved his left palm and always held the mount with one hand. However, Jia Xiaowei never moved his right hand. He seriously injured his back with a shot, and now he suddenly started to attack.
However, the soldiers behind the captain had already taken advantage of the former to throw his spear and forced him to within ten steps of the man. The sword flashed like silver and went straight towards the man.
The current hundred and two soldiers are not weak soldiers who have never walked on the battlefield, but they are like the two armies in front of the formation, climbing on the tiger and walking like a wolf.
Almost in an instant, the man made three moves, and two formations were drawn out in succession, stopping the swords of several people in front of him, and their bodies suddenly collapsed, and then with another wave, he held up the three-dimensional sword that jumped up. knife, urging the horse to retreat.
The majestic armor, which had killed most of the horse thieves in an instant, had the upper hand, but due to the unworldly methods of the people in the second realm, six people were killed and three sword handles were destroyed in an instant.
But the captain, who was standing where he was, had the same expression as before.
Within five steps, a human foot is faster than a galloping horse.
What's more, the dozens of people close to him were all holding man-killing knives that were hammered and chiselled by skilled craftsmen.
The man used his second-level cultivation to kill thirty-six people. He used all his methods. He loosened the reins and used his luck with two palms. He threw a total of four small formations and nine slashes of human energy locks, but he could never get around the square knife that was like a maggot attached to the bone. Suddenly, dozens of soldiers drew their swords in twos and twos, and someone used the back of the sword to support the horse's leg, and the five-step distance was reduced to less than half a step.
The man ordered a long knife to cut off half of his shoulder, and then penetrated the Dantian with another knife, destroying all the energy in his body, and died on the horse.
The remaining ten horse thieves were all frightened by the evil aura in front of them and found it difficult to move. They fell off their horses and kowtowed.
"It's difficult to kill the masters of the fourth and fifth realms. If you can soar in the third realm, you won't have to shoot dozens or hundreds of arrow feathers. But if you fight hard against those in the first and second realms, and occasionally hit one or two, it's just mediocre. .”
The captain waved his hand, and the remaining soldiers sheathed their swords, not forgetting to wipe away the blood from the wolf tail on the man's waist.
Of the hundred and two soldiers facing the cultivators of the upper two realms, there were still half a hundred who remained motionless without drawing their swords.
The soldiers were as calm as the old plowing cows that had just been slaughtered to reward the three armies.
