Yin Ziqi behaved like a general. Although he was seriously injured internally, he showed no fear. After listening to Jiang Shuo's words, he simply sat down cross-legged on the ground, his eyes were slightly closed, and he began to use his skills, but he said to Jiang Shuo: "Now I I want to keep you but I don’t have the strength to do so, but Commander An has set up an ambush outside the city, so Young Master Jiang should pray for himself first, and if he can escape, we can talk about the future confrontation."
Dugu asked: "Shuo'er, let's go! We have martial arts skills, are we still afraid of some soldiers?"
Jiang Shuo bowed to Yin Ziqi, but Yin Ziqi closed his eyes and did not respond. Xie Yanchang, Lu Yuxuan, and Xiao Dayou had just recovered some internal strength, but were still weak. Jiang Shuo, Dugu Wen, and Dugu Xiang each carried one person, and the six of them faced Running to the west of the city, the flames on the two bright envoys had long been extinguished. However, they saw that Yin Ziqi was injured, and Dugu Wen and Caobang had been rescued. Their momentum was lost, and they thought that they could not defeat Jiang Shuo and the others with their own strength. , hesitated but did not step forward to stop him. Seeing the general, all the sergeants did not step forward, and they did not dare to step forward at the cost of their own lives.
Looking at the retreating figures of the six people, Cui Qianyou comforted himself and said: "They came out of the city and met You Bing's cavalry. Even if they have unparalleled skills, they can't withstand the thunderous blow of thousands of troops."
Tian Qianzhen said: "It's a pity that these boys and girls are all excellent people."
Cui Qianyou glared at him, but when he saw Yin Ziqi seemed to be sitting on the ground, he sighed softly. He quickly saw the opportunity, swallowed the curse words alive, and remained silent.
Conghuo City is not big, and the six of them arrived at the city wall in just a moment. The two-foot-high city wall naturally could not stop the six of them. Although Jiang Shuo and Dugu Wen were carrying people, the wall was not vertical, and the two of them stood slightly on the wall. As soon as he borrowed some strength, he jumped onto the city wall. Dugu Xiang grabbed the city wall bricks with his flying claws and used the long rope in his hand to pull up the city wall. The strange thing was that there were no soldiers guarding the city. It must have been Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang just now. Xiang stirred up chaos in the city, and all the soldiers who defended the city went to the city.
Standing on the city wall and looking around, he saw no ambush. Lu Yuxuan said to Jiang Shuo, "Young Master, let's go to the south in the open. If there is an ambush, they will definitely be hiding in the reeds by the northwest water."
Everyone thought it was reasonable, and the area to the south was open. Even if there was an ambush, it would not be difficult to escape with the light skills of a few people. Everyone got down to the city wall, crossed the moat, and walked a hundred steps south, only to see a deep trench surrounded by people. After filling up, Jiang Shuo and Dugu Xiang were wondering when they suddenly heard the sound of an arrow and the sound of a drum in front of them.
Xiang'er wondered: "Where did so many rattles come from in the wilderness?"
Lu Yuxuan carefully identified the sound of the drum and said with a change of color: "This is the drum, the Yuyang cavalry is coming."
Because Jiang Shuo had swallowed the Erlong inner elixir, his eyesight was very good in the dark night. Looking south, he saw countless cavalry riding towards the city. Today was a new moon and the moonlight was dim. These cavalry were all wearing black armor and wearing hooded faces. , so even though he was only a few hundred steps away, no one on the city wall saw him.
Lu Yuxuan was originally from Fanyang and was familiar with the formation of the Youyan cavalry. He could estimate the number of incoming cavalry just from the sound of the drum. The drum was also known as the cavalry drum and was shaped like a round fan. The so-called "brigade commander held the spear". The military system in the Tang Dynasty was based on a One hundred people constitute a brigade, and the leading officer is the brigade commander. The brigade commander of the Yuyang army beats the drum to command the hundred-man cavalry led by the post. Therefore, the number of Yuyang cavalry can be judged from the number of the drum. The small drum Like a round fan, a single drum is not very loud, but at this moment, the sound of the drums is like bursts of spring thunder, which is quite powerful. It can be heard from no less than twenty sides. It seems that the number of cavalry besieging may not be less than two thousand. Lu Yuxuan hurriedly said: "There are a lot of cavalry according to the sound of drums. Young Master, why don't we go back to the tower first to see the situation clearly."
Jiang Shuo nodded and ran back with everyone, but suddenly he saw fire on the city top, and numerous soldiers were exposed on the pheasant mouth. These soldiers held crossbows in their arms, and there were officers beating drums on the city head. The crossbowmen fired in unison with the drums, and the military arms Zhang's crossbow has a range of up to two hundred steps and a very fast rate of fire. He shoots downwards from the top of the city. Everyone has no choice but to dodge. Although everyone has high martial arts skills and is not hurt by the arrows, they can't get close to the city wall, let alone climb the city.
Looking back, I saw the cavalry approaching in the distance. There were many black armor cavalry, probably more than 2,000. They were divided into five rows to form a huge half-moon formation, pressing towards the city wall. The knights were all wearing heavy armor and running fiercely. Underneath, the sound of armor leaves rubbing against each other was like locusts crossing the border, making people's scalp numb. Everyone was holding a long horse pole, standing like a forest. Under the light of the torch at the top of the city, the armor-piercing ridges on the poles were shining brightly. With the cold light, even an old Jianghu like Dugu Wen couldn't help but tremble with fear.
As the formation closed in, the distance between the knights continued to shrink, almost touching each other. At this time, the sound of the drums suddenly disappeared. It turned out that the brigade commander in the army had also raised the horse pole. The cessation of the drums was the final signal. The knights leveled the horses together, and the rear row carried them on the shoulders of the front row, forming a dense formation and launched the final charge.
Marching and fighting are quite different from fighting alone. If the Yuyang cavalry were pulled out to fight six people one by one, even a hundred and eighty people fighting on wheels would be no match. But at this moment, they formed a riding formation and relied on the power of the horses to sprint. Thousands of spears are pointed at six people at once. Even if you have peerless magical power and the ability to reach heaven and earth, how many people can you resist at the same time?
The six of them stood back to back, and Xiao Dayou said: "I didn't expect that today would be the day when I would commit suicide to become a benevolent person. Thank you so much, young master, for coming to save us. It's hard to repay kindness in this life. We can only be brothers again in the next life!"
Xie Yanchang's pupils were filled with blood and he shouted: "Even if we die, we must capture a few more people who are behind us. Let's kill them together, brothers!"
Jiang Shuo and Dugu Wen unconsciously stood in front of Dugu Xiang, even if they had to resist her for a while, it would be good. However, Dugu Xiang squeezed forward, held the long rope with one hand, and held Jiang Shuo's hand with the other and smiled: "Brother Shuo, I will never die behind you." Jiang Shuo was moved in his heart. He held a sword in one hand and clasped Xiang'er's hand tightly with the other: "Xiang'er, we live and die together."
Seeing that the Yuyang cavalry had rushed within fifty steps, there was a sudden sound of gold and iron clashing. The southeast corner of the Half-Moon Formation suddenly collapsed, and a group of cavalry came in. This group of cavalry did not wear heavy armor, and the crotch of the cavalry was not heavy. The horse they were riding was taller than the Yuyang army horse. The knight's uniform was also black, but he tied a red scarf around his neck. This group of cavalry rushed towards them like a gust of wind, like a red tornado rolling over the ground.
The weapons in the hands of the red scarf cavalry were ring-headed swords. Since they attacked from the side and behind, the Yuyang cavalry were easily broken into the formation. When the troops were in close combat, Ma Shan was not as agile as the ring-headed sword, because Jiang Shuo and others only had six People, the Yuyang cavalry had previously formed a dense attack formation, and their horses were stacked on top of each other for fear of not being close. Suddenly, they were attacked on the flanks. They wanted to pull out their horses to fight back, but they were entangled and couldn't get out for a while. Fortunately, they were able to pull out their horses, but they couldn't. Also because the formation was too dense, the poles were too big to be deployed.
On the other hand, the Red Scarf Army entered the formation like a fish in water. They slashed left and right with their swords, slashing on the heavy armor of the Yuyang Cavalry. It was like a knife cutting through tofu. Suddenly, there were screams of misery, and the Yuyang Cavalry They fell off their horses one after another, and the scene became even more chaotic.
Seeing an opportunity, the six of them thought that the red scarf cavalry were friends rather than enemies. No matter how many there were, they shouted together and headed towards the remaining formation in the southeast corner. Once the cavalry lost their dense formation, they would not be a threat to these kung fu masters. It goes without saying that Jiang Shuo, Dugu Ye and Sun, and the three Cao Gang people have been trapped for the past few days. They have long been frustrated. Although their tenth success has only recovered 30 to 40% at this moment, it is enough to deal with the cavalry in front of them. Immediately everyone bravely took the lead in venting the bad breath in their chests.
Xiao Dayou was the first to grab the horse's pole and pulled it hard, pulling the knight off his horse. He jumped on the horse's back, split the horse's pole into two pieces, and danced it like a double spear. When fighting at short range, a short spear is actually easier to use than a long spear. The horse pole is made of a composite of bamboo and wooden poles. It is both strong and tough. It can still remain unbroken under the impact of the cavalry, which shows its toughness. However, Xiao Dayou broke it casually, and left and right The Yuyang cavalry were frightened when they saw him, and several of them were stabbed to death by him.
Xie Yanchang, on the other hand, was fighting on foot. Facing the enemy in front of him, he ducked down, hid under his horse, and raised his palms up. He was a master of the inner family. Although his internal strength had not fully recovered at that time, he could still easily lift the horse and the man together. , was thrown outwards violently, and immediately crushed a large area.
Lu Yuxuan's blow was elegant and graceful. He snatched the drum from a brigade commander's hand, and when the round fan flew out, it hit a person in the face. Although the man was wearing a fan, he couldn't withstand the blow. His nose collapsed and blood spurted out, and he fell from the horse. However, Lu Yuxuan stepped forward, picked up the drum and the man and horse, and threw them separately. Immediately, two more people fell off their horses and died.
When the Yuyang cavalry saw how fierce and vicious these wealthy guests were, and their formation was scattered, they had already lost their fighting spirit, and for a moment they were stunned in place and did not dare to move forward.
At this time, the red scarf cavalry was about to sweep past the formation. One of the soldiers shouted: "Look, if you don't get on your horse, hurry up and leave! Now is not the time for a fight!"
Jiang Shuo suddenly woke up and shouted: "Grandpa, three big brothers, grab the horse quickly!"
He didn't call Xiang'er's name, because the two of them had not let go of their clasped hands since just now. Xiang'er casually threw a silver ball to knock a knight off his horse, and then threw the flying claw at the other end to grab the saddle. , and with one pull, he and Jiang Shuo flew onto the horseback holding hands. Over there, Dugu Wen, who looked like a ghost, jumped onto the horseback from behind the commander of the brigade. Before the man could turn around and wave his hand, the iron tower-like man was like a paper kite. After flying out, Xiao Dayouyuan had already captured a horse, but Xie Yanchang was not good at riding. Lu Yuxuan grabbed a horse and pulled Xie on the horse, and the two rode together. When Jiang Shuo saw that everyone had mounted their horses, he shouted, and the four horses rushed out of the formation, following the bloody path created by the Red Scarf Army.
When the Red Scarf Army broke through the formation and left, the Yuyang Army was still in chaos. They finally turned around and organized their troops. The Yuyang Army all wore the same uniform in order to avoid exposing the position of their leader during the battle. , only the brigade commander holding the drum could still tell the difference. The first brigade commander crossed his hands to a knight of medium height in the army and asked for instructions: "Young Marshal, are you still pursuing me?"
The man took off his pocket and said, "Today the opportunity is lost, there is no need to chase..." The man revealed a round face with a fine eagle nose, and it was An Qingxu, the second son of An Lushan.
