In this era, duels between generals in front of the formation are rare. Ma Chengxun has no intention of fighting the two heroes alone, and E Yidu and Anfei Yanggu have no intention of fighting together.
Both sides invariably led their men to fight to the death, so the area was small and only a few hundred people could actually participate in the battle. grab, grab, grab
The Ming army fought on horseback, which had both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage lies in being in a commanding position. Although the bayonet of the lance in his hand is not as long as the bayonet of the rifle, it is still longer than the single swords of various shapes used by the Jianzhou soldiers;
The disadvantage was that after being desperately blocked by the red and white two powerful Bagalas, although the Ming army was temporarily in the lead in terms of kills, due to the loss of the most advantageous speed advantage of the cavalry, the field gradually fell into a bitter stalemate, and the battle began to take a turn. The Jianzhou Army tilted.
When Ma Chengxun saw this, he flew into a rage and chopped off the head of a Jianzhou Bayala with his backhand knife. Blood spattered on his face, making his already strong beard condensed with blood, making him look even more ferocious, like... Like the Asura king in the Brahma sect.嘘戅 Miao Shu Yuan 戅
Suddenly, Ma Chengxun caught a glimpse of the Jianzhou enemy general rushing down from the left, silently approaching with his jawan soldiers. Although the enemy general was silent, he was extremely brave and steadfast, leading his men to gain a firm foothold. He still fought according to the method of sword and shield men opening the way, and archers heavy arrows to break armor and harvest. Many Ming army cavalry fought against the sword and shield men, but were knocked off their horses by the bows and arrows of the Jianzhou soldiers. The battle situation was obviously unfavorable.
Ma Chengxun's heart was filled with anger. He drew his sword and crossed his horse to attack the Jianzhou enemy general.
This Jianzhou general was E Yidu. His original intention was to quietly establish an advantage, and finally worked together with Anfei Yanggu to trap Ma Chengxun to death. Unexpectedly, Ma Chengxun could take the overall situation into consideration while killing the enemy, and immediately urged the horse to fight when the situation changed.
They also considered that the treasured armor on Ma Chengxun would be far better than what he was wearing. He didn't want to rush into a fight alone, but he glanced at the other side and saw that Anfei Yanggu had also noticed Ma Chengxun's movements and was quietly moving to follow him. .
E Yi couldn't help but feel something in his heart. He thought of the cooperation he had with his cousin Ha Sihu when he was hunting tigers in the mountains when he was young. He subconsciously shouted and said to Ma Chengxun: "Tomorrow will be good, and E Yi is worried about the lack of success." Report to the master!" After saying that, he also clamped his horse's belly and used his sword to meet him.
Ma Chengxun had been a cavalry officer for a long time, and he could tell at a glance that although he was tough, his riding skills were not as good as his own. He couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and a murderous sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said solemnly: "Humph, I'm going to sell you first!"
But although he spoke arrogantly, his actions were anything but arrogant. While riding the horse forward, he quietly pulled the horse's rein to the left. When the two horses were about to intersect with E Yidu, Ma Chengxun's horse suddenly moved diagonally to the left, giving up a distance of about half an arm's length.
In a horse fight, the cross-horse encounter is usually a move made between lightning and flint. Because of the extremely fast speed, you usually have to calculate the opponent's moves before making a move, and prepare the angle and strength of your move.
According to the original directions of both parties, the distance between the two of them when they passed by each other was relatively close. Therefore, neither of them raised the sword on their foreheads. Instead, they held the sword at their waists, half-shrinking their hands, intending to use the tip of the sword straight at the moment they met. Seungxun's chest was numb.
This action is not very common in horse fighting, but it is very suitable for the current situation.
Because Ma Chengxun has a typical northwest man's physique, tall and burly, like a giant spirit god. The war horse under his crotch is also extremely handsome. It is a purebred descendant of the Central Asian Khan blood horse snatched by Tumote during the Western Expedition a few years ago. It is half a head taller than E Yidu's war horse.
Everyone judged that Ma Chengxun most likely took advantage of his height and slashed diagonally from top to bottom. This physical advantage exists objectively and cannot be changed artificially. If Ma Chengxun did this, it would be difficult for him to force it. Therefore, Er Yidu chose to take advantage of the situation and planned to lean over suddenly when the two horses met and stab Ma Chengxun straight in the chest.
However, after all, he had no experience fighting against an extremely skilled horseman. Ma Chengxun judged his plan from his preparatory movements, so before the two horses met, he pulled the horse's rein slightly to the left, and the horse's head The direction was slightly turned, and when they passed each other, the two sides were already half an arm's length apart.
Although this distance is actually not long, it is enough to make E Yidu's sword miss. At the same time, Ma Chengxun did not use the top-down chopping move like "Strike Huashan" that Er Yidu expected. Instead, he stretched his arm outwards and dragged the saber diagonally - this move Rarely seen among Han generals, it is a typical Mongolian cavalry sword technique. However, Ma Chengxun didn't learn it from the Mongols. He inherited this trick from Ma Fang.
Sooner or later, Ma Chengxun's unexpected change of moves was completely unexpected. However, at this moment, it was already too late to stop or change his moves.
Er Yidu's agility, which he had honed from hunting in the mountains in his early years, was able to pull him back from the gate of death. When he couldn't avoid it, he simply leaned over more decisively and "hugged" him directly on the horse's back. on, and the head is even lower.
"Xilulu..." Eyidu's war horse suddenly let out a mournful neigh. Before he could understand what was going on, he felt that the horse's four hooves lost strength and fell to the snow with a "bang". At the same time, he himself was thrown off and rolled several times in the snow, with several cuts on his face caused by ice shards.
He was currently on the battlefield and could be hit by the Ming army at any time, so E Yi didn't care about the pain all over his body and quickly got up. He subconsciously glanced at his horse, only to see that the horse's neck was cut in half by Ma Chengxun's seemingly light knife. Blood was gushing out, dyeing the snow around the horse's body red.
A chill ran down my forehead and down my spine, and I thought to myself with some fear: This Ma Chengxun has such a superb riding skill and a superb swordsmanship on horseback! I heard that he has been with Master Ma for many years and is his direct disciple. I thought that Master Ma could use his cavalry to make Anda Khan retreat. I thought it was just a rumor earlier, but now it seems that it is really not a boast from Mingren...
However, just when E Yidu was thinking about how to deal with Ma Chengxun's offensive after reining in his horse, Ma Chengxun, who had just turned his horse around, suddenly changed his expression, and his whole body suddenly turned to the side.
Before E Yi had time to think about what was going on with Ma Chengxun, he saw a cold light flying towards Ma Chengxun like lightning. grab, grab, grab
Originally, this cold light should have been pointed directly between Ma Chengxun's chest and abdomen, but Ma Chengxun's twisting and leaning back movement caused it to be slightly misaligned, and it penetrated directly into Ma Chengxun's left shoulder socket.
Although E Yidu and Ma Chengxun had passed by on the wrong horse at this time and were separated by at least five or six feet, he still heard Ma Chengxun groan.
Er Yidu knew in his heart that An Feiyanggu must have done this.
Anfeyangu is somewhat special among the Nurha Red Army. This specialness does not refer to bravery or status, but his style is different from others.
The biggest difference between Amfiyangu and other generals lies in two points: one is that he pays special attention to the training of his soldiers, and often makes the soldiers do some weird training such as "jumping into the stream" and "crossing the pit", and he never tires of it; It was because he valued the resourcefulness of the returning generals and believed that the only purpose of war was victory. In order to defeat the enemy, any means would be used.
Like just now, when Ma Chengxun and E Yidu were on horseback to attack from behind, it would be difficult for E Yidu to do it.
Even if Er Yidu wants to shoot, he will shoot it at an angle where the opponent can see it. Whether the opponent is distracted and doesn't pay attention is another matter; Anfeyangu will not care about shooting cold arrows from behind, and he will shoot at an angle that the opponent can see. For him, there are no cold arrows or hot arrows on the battlefield. It is enough to kill the enemy.
The Jurchens are a fishing and hunting people, and quietly firing cold arrows is the basic principle of hunting. They will not have any psychological burden on this. People like Er Yidu were actually influenced by the heroism of the Han and Mongolians, and some were "not Jurchen enough".
However, this move made Ma Chengxun furious. The arrow just now was extremely powerful. It actually penetrated the armor and hit his left shoulder socket directly. Moreover, the armor-piercing arrow had a lengthened hook. As he moved, it was painful.
You must know that although the armor he is wearing is also a cavalry armor, it is a "customized version for generals". It is made of thin steel sheets produced by Jinghua on the outside of the ordinary armor. Its defensive power is absolutely top-notch among cavalry armors. With the blessing of this kind of armor, he was sure that ordinary armor-piercing arrows would be difficult to penetrate. But the arrow just now was so powerful, so it was definitely not an ordinary stray arrow. There must be an enemy who is good at shooting it and will use it with force. Bow deliberately attacked.
Enemy generals, strong bows, and sneak attacks from behind. He had never enjoyed this kind of treatment in the many years of war with the Mongols, but unexpectedly, he would receive such treatment in Liaodong.
Ma Chengxun was so angry that he handed the saber to his left hand with his right hand, held the arrow shaft exposed outside the armor and broke it suddenly. Then he glanced in the direction of An Feiyanggu, and his eyes were fixed on An Feiyanggu, who was holding a long bow and had no intention of hiding it. Fei Yanggu's face said coldly: "Thief, do you dare to use your name?"
Anfeiyanggu threw his bow at the soldiers beside him, replaced the sword in his hand, and replied loudly without any concern: "Why don't you dare? I am Juercha Feiyanggu under the command of Jianzhou Dabele!" Chengxun, you have reached the end of your rope today. I advise you not to waste your martial arts skills. Instead, you might as well serve my Baylor..."
"Hahahaha!" Ma Chengxun laughed wildly, interrupting Anfei Yanggu's words, and then his smile faded, and he said solemnly: "You don't even want to ask, my right guard Ma family is full of loyal people, and there is no one who has ever bent his knees to become a thief! What's more... you think you can win by hurting me in the dark? But you'd be happy too early!"
Anfeiyanggu was a little surprised for a moment. The battle situation was obviously at a stalemate, and Ma Chengxun, the leader, was injured again. How could he still be so confident?
An Feiyanggu knew the arrow just now. The non-lone bow is a strong bow, and the armor-piercing arrows are also specially made. The underhook is not only lengthened, but also has a certain arc.嘘戅dingding戅
This kind of arrow shot into Ma Chengxun's body. Not only was it extremely difficult to take it out, but it would also continue to damage his body if he moved even a little bit. The pain was abnormal. His left arm was absolutely unable to exert force. It was far more vicious than ordinary arrows. If there is any regret, it is that due to the rush, the arrow was not quenched.
Under such circumstances, even if Ma Chengxun broke the arrow body, he would continue to bleed. No matter how brave and fearless he was, he could not hold on for too long. He had to bandage the arrow as soon as possible and recuperate. On this point, Anfeiyanggu is absolutely sure, and at the same time, he also believes that with Ma Chengxun's battle experience, he must also understand it in his heart.
So under such circumstances, why did Ma Chengxun dare to speak so shamelessly? Anfeiyanggu was really puzzled and could only think that Ma Chengxun's move was just to stabilize the morale of the military.
Anfeiyanggu decided not to pay attention, and just rode up with a sword, thinking that if Ma Chengxun was simply captured, everything would be settled.
Ma Chengxun snorted coldly. Although his left arm could no longer bear the force, he could still move his hand slightly. He tightened the horse's reins with a turn of his wrist, controlled the horse with one hand with his left hand, held the knife with his right hand, clamped the horse's belly, and faced it, and even said proudly: "Clown, I will give you a left arm, too." I can also kill you!"
An Feiyanggu is not an angry person, but after hearing such arrogance, he couldn't help but get angry. His nostrils slightly opened and he said coldly: "What a madman, then don't blame me, Feiyanggu, for not sparing his talents!"
The horses of both men began to speed up. However, at this moment, the mountain where Nurhachi was sitting suddenly erupted with shouts and the sound of gold and iron. A shout like thunder came from the mountain: "Su Wanbeizi Guarjia Fei Yingdong. Here, if Nurhachi has not yet been given the head, how long will it take?"
Immediately following this shout was Nurhaci’s voice: “Are you Fei Yingdong?”
Grab, grab, grab. But Nurhachi's voice only conveyed this sentence, and there was no other news after that.
Anfei Yanggu, who was preparing to fight with Ma Chengxun in front of his horse, suddenly reined in his horse and stood still. He hesitated for a moment and suddenly sneered: "I hunted you with the method of hunting, and Fei Yingdong hunted me with the method of hunting." ? Very good, just record your head on your neck and take it back after I finish killing Su's son."
After all, he didn't care how Ma Chengxun ridiculed him, turned around and left.
Er Yidu over there had also recovered his breath at this time. After the previous battle, he already knew the difference in horse fighting between him and Ma Chengxun, and said secretly: This person has superb horsemanship. If you want to fight with him, you must be in the horse fight. You can do it immediately. At this time, I had lost my horse. Although he had injured one arm, he was still invincible due to his commanding height. It would be better to pretend to retreat and wait until he bleeds out and loses strength for a longer period of time before fighting again.
Thinking of this, E Yidu picked up the sword that he had lost when he fell off his horse, turned around and left.
Ma Chengxun saw it with his sharp eyes and subconsciously wanted to pursue him. Suddenly, his vision blurred. Although he calmed down immediately, he couldn't help being secretly surprised: Oops, this arrow is so vicious. In just a short while, I have already lost so much blood?
He quickly looked down, only to find that the blood flowing from his left shoulder had dyed half of his body red, and the bright red blood was even dripping down bit by bit on the ground along his left foot.

The pinnacle is the pinnacle. Thanks to book friend "Cao Mianzi" for your reward and monthly ticket support, thank you!
PS: I am going to the countryside today, so I posted this chapter early in the morning. From tomorrow to around the third day of the Lunar New Year, I will probably be out of contact. Only the mobile author version is available, and updates will probably only be available on the mobile version.
Of course, "losing contact" is just self-deprecating and does not mean that the book will be discontinued. The main thing here is to inform you in advance that there may be layout problems such as indistinguishable paragraphs in the updates in the next few days. In addition, thank you for tips and monthly tickets at the end of the chapter may be delayed until after the third day of the Lunar New Year. We hope everyone knows and understands.
I wish all readers a Happy New Year and all the best in advance.
