Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Seven: The Potential
What happened...?
How could this happen?
The warrior of the Yizhan tribe, Qilian, looked ahead with a blank look on his face. Looking at the soldiers under his command, he couldn't help but feel a fragmented illusion in his mind.
He vaguely remembered that the strange Xia cavalry did not dodge or avoid the volley of his Hu soldiers, rushed straight towards them, and crashed into their soldiers' array, both of which were injured.
Why did the Xia people use this tactic of losing both sides? Are all the Xia people's cavalry not afraid of death?
Just as he was shocked, he suddenly saw the Xia cavalry who he thought had died with his soldiers, standing up staggeringly.
“…”
Qi Lian opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but suddenly he heard someone shouting: "Chi Lian, be careful!"
careful?
What should you be careful about?
He turned his head subconsciously and looked in the direction where the sound came. Then he saw a general Xia and a few dozen cavalrymen heading straight for him. In the blink of an eye, he rushed to him and raised a sharp sword with a cold light and slashed at him.
"puff--"
As blood splattered everywhere, a big head flew up, drew an arc in the air, and then fell to the ground.
『That's...』
The last impression that stayed in his mind was that he saw a headless corpse slowly sliding down from the horse's back, and next to the headless corpse, the cold-looking Xia General.
“…”
After glanced at the head that was still open after death, which was still open with an incredible look, Li He frowned slightly and shook the blood on his sword.
He didn't know what happened to this Hu general until he waved his sword and slashed at the other party's neck, and he didn't even pull out his weapons.
Is this guy who is distracted on the battlefield really the general of this Hu cavalry?
Could it be that you read it wrong?
Li He, who came with the goal of killing the enemy, could not help but think of this in his heart.
But he quickly dispelled this suspicion because the reactions of Hu Qi from the side made him realize that he had not found the wrong target.
"He, the leader of the company is dead!"
"The leader of his company is dead!"
"It was that Xia general, that Xia general killed the leader of his company!"
"Kill him! Avenge his leader!"
The moment after his company was killed by Li He, the Hu cavalry under the former command shouted in panic. Although he could not speak, Li He didn't know what these Hu cavalry were shouting, but the panic and fear on the faces of these people really fell into his eyes.
"It seems that there is no wrong target."
With a snorted in his heart, Li He was not panicked when facing the Hu cavalry who were surrounding him from all directions. He held a shield in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, forcing the Hu cavalry who besieged him, and even killed one of them.
The sharp iron sword in his hand cut off the shoulder blade of the poor Hu Qi with one sword.
"ha!"
Li He shouted for luck, and the iron sword cut into the shoulder blade of the Hu cavalry, came out of his abdomen, and cut a person into two pieces.
As the Hu cavalry opened his eyes incredibly, the upper half of his body slid down from the lower half of his body, the surrounding Lin Hus gasped and his face was shocked.
This summer general actually cut an adult into two pieces alive?!
"Li He!"
"Brother Li!"
"Doctor Ziliang!"
Just when these Hu cavalry were shocked, they saw Li He's four men who were trapped in a siege from afar and rushed over.
"die!"
Peng Chou roared loudly, and the mount under his crotch hit a Hu cavalry's war horse. The Hu cavalry immediately turned his back and overturned. However, Peng Chou, when the war horse under his crotch was unable to hit the front leg and bent his knee, he twisted his waist and stood steadily on the ground.
Given that Peng Chou's riding skills could never allow him to complete such incredible moves, he can only say that his luck is really good.
"And you!"
Peng Chou, who landed on the ground, was more combat-effective than when he was on the back of a horse. He slashed hard on the thigh of a Hu cavalry. The Hu cavalry screamed and tried to slash Peng Chou, but was pulled down by the latter, and his sword killed him.
On the other hand, Hu Feng, the leader of the Hu clan, was also fighting with two Lin Huyou. He saw that this brave general who was about Li He fought against two but was not afraid of it. He was equal to the two Hu cavalry. In a blink of an eye, he saw the opportunity to kill one person.
"Wei Wuqi, attack!"
Thousand generals Feng Pu and Zuo Song also led their soldiers to shout and kill at the Hu cavalry. They were wearing thick armor and did not avoid swords or arrows, so that these Linhu cavalry who had dealt with them for the first time could truly understand what the Wei Wuzhang and what the first invader in front of the Central Plains - the reason why it was called "Another Front" was because the Shaoliang's trapped troops appeared.
The combat power of the trapped soldiers is better than that of the Wei Wushu, especially the trapped soldiers who hold shields, which are as solid as rocks. Even if they fight against two, they will not be at all dangerous.
Look, three or four soldiers who had to choose to fight in the infantry battle because of the death of the war horses formed a formation back to back. More than a dozen Hu soldiers surrounded them, but they were unable to kill any of them. Every time they swung their swords, they were blocked by those soldiers.
On the contrary, the soldiers who were trapped in the formation cooperated with each other and used a shield to rush and then stab each other, often taking away the life of a Hu warrior in one go.
In front of these rock-solid soldiers, even the Wei Wushu dared to claim to be the first step in the world.
After a brief stalemate, the cavalry of the formation and the Wei Wu cavalry gradually began to gain the upper hand. When Fang Han and Zhai Zhang sent their soldiers to help, in fact, the four thousand Lin Hu cavalry had already been defeated by the cavalry of the formation and the Wei Wu cavalry.
With more than 2,000 people defeated the fighting spirit of 4,000 Hu cavalry and even killed the opponent's general. The sudden attack of the Chongqi Camp could be said to have stunned Hou Gu and his company.
Oh, the company had been killed by Li He, and only Hou Gu was still confused. He didn't even notice that Fang Han and Zhai Zhang in the distance had led their troops to surround him.
It was not until the Hu soldiers next to him reminded him many times that Hou Gu could react. When he realized that Fang Han and Zhai Zhang had already led their troops to kill, and surrounded them in a semicircle.
To the east are the cavalry and the Wei Wu cavalry, to the north are the surrounding Fang Han and Zhai Zhang's army, and the Hu soldiers of the Hou Gu family and the Qilian family were attacked and defeated step by step.
In addition, at this time, Li He had already set his sights on Hou Gu and was leading dozens of cavalry including Feng Pu and others to kill the latter. Hou Gu was shocked and quickly waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry, retreat quickly!"
Hou Gu and the cavalry of the second clan of Qilian had already been beaten to the ground and lost their fighting spirit. When he heard the order of his company to retreat, he quickly turned his horse's head and turned around to retreat.
Seeing this, Li He, who was a distance away from Hou Gu, raised his hand and shouted: "Cabinet, stop the Hu general!"
The soldiers of the heavy cavalry camp who had lost their war horses heard Li He's shouting and spontaneously conveyed Li He's order: "Doctor Ziliang has an order to stop the Hu general!"
Hearing this order, the Wei Wu cavalry who still had mounts gave up their gazes in pursuit and turned to chase Hou Gu in groups.
"Protect the leader!"
The Hou Gu family's cavalry shouted, trying to stop the chasing Xia cavalry, but they underestimated the courage of the Xia cavalry on the opposite side.
"Bump him down!"
With Feng Pu's order, hundreds of heavy cavalry rushed towards Hou Gu in an unyielding manner.
I think the soldiers of the Chongqi camp also understand that in terms of riding, even if there are saddles and stirrups, they are definitely not opponents of the Linhu cavalry. However, hitting a horse does not require too clever riding skills.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang, with a burst of noise, hundreds of heavy cavalry of the coalition forces rushed into the team of hundreds of Hu cavalry beside Hou Gu, and at the cost of one horse for one horse, he "died together" with the other party.
"Crazy! These summer people are simply crazy!"
Hou Gu's forehead was sweating and his mouth was speechless.
As a nobleman of the Yizhan tribe, he had fought with one of the most powerful soldiers on the grasslands such as Daye, Loufan, and Xiongnu. He had never feared him before, but today, facing these Xia cavalry, a trace of fear arises in his heart - the tactics of Xia cavalry are too fierce and cruel, and he has never encountered such an opponent.
"Crash him!"
"Crash that Hu general!"
After the first wave of coalition heavy cavalry and the corresponding number of Hu cavalrymen "died together", the second wave arrived soon. Hou Gu wanted to escape in horror, but he was surrounded by Qilian and Hou Gu soldiers who were the same thoughts. He could not escape from his own siege.
"Escape quickly! What are you doing?!"
"Back! Back! Not here!"
"You deserve to be damned..."
For a moment, the formation of hundreds of Hu cavalry beside Hou Gu was in chaos. Most of them wanted to escape, while some people wanted to protect Hou Gu out of loyalty. However, they did not know that they could not protect Hou Gu at all, but instead made Hou Gu unable to escape.
Finally, a heavy cavalry of coalition forces shouted, instigating the war horse under his crotch and hit Hou Gu's mount hard. The war horse whined and his whole body fell to the right. Fortunately, Hou Gu's riding skill was superb, so he jumped down at the critical moment to prevent his legs from being suppressed by the war horse and being unable to move.
Unfortunately, his good luck ended here, because more than a dozen other heavy cavalry of the coalition forces rushed over, and Hou Gu had no time to dodge, but was hit hard by one of the heavy cavalry. With a bang, he was knocked away several feet away, knocking a Hu cavalry off the horse.
Waiting for Hou Gu, who was so depressed that he was so depressed, he was about to struggle to stand up on the ground, but suddenly he saw the frightened war horse unconsciously lifting his hooves and stomping on his chest.
"No!"
Hou Gu shouted, and then the front hooves of the frightened horse were stepped into the chest. With just a few clicks, Hou Gu felt the blackness in front of his eyes and then lost consciousness.
After a while, they waited for Li He to lead Peng Chou, Hu Feng and others to arrive, killing the Hou Gu warrior who was desperately trying to save his leader. They also noticed Hou Gu who was trampled on by a war horse.
"Diet?"
"It seems to be still breathing..."
"But depending on the situation, I guess I can't survive."
When several heavy cavalry of the infantry fighting coalition squatted down to check Hou Gu's injuries, Li He also glanced at him.
He clearly saw that Hou Gu's sheepskin coat was obviously marked with a horse's hoof on his chest, and at least half of his finger was concave. It was probably the bones in his chest that were trampled on.
"Do not matter if you die or not, get up first."
"yes!"
After ordering the soldiers to take the Hou Gu down, Li He looked north.
There, the cavalry of the second clan of the Jae-gan and Jae-men were still fighting with Hu Hai's left escort army. It was obvious that the first two had even fewer troops, but they incredibly suppressed Hu Hai's side.
