Chapter 6: The Storm Rises Again Section 22

"Order the captains of all departments to lead the army across the river!"

Hearing Li Hong's shout, Storm Sha raised his hand happily and shouted wildly, and rode away.

Heng Xi, Nie Xiao, Zhao Yun and others heard that they were going to cross the river to pursue, and their spirits were immediately lifted, and everyone got on their horses one after another, and each assembled his team and rushed to the river.

"My lord, if you disobey the order and use troops without authorization, you will be killed." Xu Rong exclaimed, "My lord, you have to think twice." ”

"I don't want to, and I'm not afraid of killing my head." Li Hong said resolutely, "If I don't drive the Xianbei people out of Helan Mountain, I will never look back." ”

"Fighting behind the adults is just happy, happy!" Koji Yi shouted loudly: "Brothers, cross the Yellow River and kill the barbarians!" ”

"Ling Ming, Arc Ding, abandon Shen, blow the horn, summon the black panther righteous servants, let's go to Helan Mountain."

===

Tuoba Feng looked at the battlefield full of dead corpses, and his heart was extremely shocked.

"Why did the Yinglingqiang people die here?" Tuoba frowned and said, "Who killed them?" To kill more than a thousand people, it would take an army of several thousand. ”

"Could it be that the leopard arrived in Liancheng first?" Tuoba said in a shudder, "There is no such possibility, hasn't he been following us all the time?" ”

Tuoba Feng looked around and said strangely, "What is Ying Lingqiang doing here?" Did Helian take them out of the Wolf Howling Valley? ”

"Helian?" Tuoba thought for a moment and said, "Your Excellency's guess may be right. Helian crossed the river from near the upper river to the north, and he must have passed through the Wolf Howling Valley. He Lian and Ying Lingqiang's leader Shield Fox has a good relationship, if he asks Shield Fox to send troops to escort him back to Khan Mountain, Shield Fox will not agree. But the question is, who did they run into? Who killed them? Where is this army now? ”

"Could it be Tuobamu?" Tuoba Yan glanced at Tuoba Feng and whispered, "After he received the adult's message, he was worried about the adult's safety, and passed the Lingwu Valley?" ”

"This son of mine is very obedient and cautious, without my orders, he will definitely not cross the Lingwu Valley." Tuoba Feng shook his head and said, "This must have been done by the Han army, and the leopard's men must have chased after him." We are not familiar with the terrain here, but the local Qiang people are familiar with it. Nine times out of ten, I think this was done by the sand of the first zero, and he has already taken a shortcut and run ahead of us. ”

"Lingwu Valley? Tempest Sand arrived in Lingwu Valley first? Tuoba Han's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly said, "My lord, then let's go quickly, lest we be attacked on our backs after the leopard arrives." ”

===

Several scouts came from different directions.

"My lord, these are all Yinglingqiang people, and there is not a single corpse of Han soldiers." A scout leader reported, "The corpses of the Han soldiers have been disposed of." ”

"How do you know that this was done by the Han army?" Tuoba Han asked, "What did you find?" ”

"Long arrows, there are long arrows of Han people everywhere here." The scout replied, "Although we also use captured Han Chinese arrows, it is impossible to use so many crossbow arrows at the same time. I'm sure it was done by the Han army, and it's an elite iron horseman. ”

Tuoba Feng and Tuoba Yan were taken aback at the same time.

"Could it be that Fengyun Iron rode across the Yellow River?"

"Don't guess." Tuoba Feng said loudly, "Order the army and hurry to Lingwu Valley." ”

=====================

He Lian and Dunhu walked with more than 50 people in the mountains and forests with difficulty.

"Shield Fox, where are you taking us? From yesterday to today, not only did we not bypass Lingwu Valley, but we got closer and closer to Lian City. Helian asked breathlessly, "How long is this going to go?" ”

"Great King, after walking through this valley, we have reached the east of Lingwu Valley." Shield Fox smiled, "Tomorrow, we can bypass Lingwu Valley." ”

"How many more roads?"

"Ten miles." Shield Fox said, "The king has never walked the mountain road, and he doesn't know the hardships of walking the mountain road. Although we walked for a long time, we actually only climbed three peaks, which is still early. ”

===

"There are people's homes, there are people's homes there."

The soldier who was walking in front suddenly shouted excitedly, "Go, go, get something to eat." ”

The shield fox rushed out of the woods in a few steps and looked into the valley. A few small huts are built along the mountain and water, and people can be seen walking in front of the houses sporadically.

"When did you get a home here?" He exclaimed angrily, "Who is so bold as to dare to live in my land?" ”

"Qu Shuai, he is a Han person, and only Han people can build a grass hut to live." One soldier said, "Let's go burn it." ”

"Go, go......" Shield Fox said excitedly, "Brothers, let's go, kill people!" ”

Yinglingqiang and Xianbei people were killed by the Han army and only a few dozen people were left behind, and the hatred was full of nowhere to vent, when they saw the Han people, they immediately shouted and rushed madly towards the valley.

===

"There were no Han Chinese living here in the past?" He Lian followed behind the shield fox and asked as he walked.

"No, who will live in the barren mountains and mountains here?" Dunhu said, "After the king led the army all the way to kill, many Han people in Liancheng fled to the mountains before they had time to escape the Yellow River. Recently, I have killed a lot of fleeing Han Chinese near Wolf Howling Valley and robbed a lot of property. ”

As the two were talking, the shouts in front of them had already resounded, and the hut was also set on fire, and black smoke billowed out. By the time the two of them and a few attendants walked nearby, the grass hut was almost burned down, except for a dozen corpses strewn across the ground.

Suddenly, several soldiers pointed behind them and shouted: "Get out of the way, get out of the way......"

Several people looked behind them inexplicably.

"Whew...... Woo ......" Four long arrows whizzed in, and in the blink of an eye, they shot into the corpses of the four guards. The four of them didn't snort and fell on their backs.

Like roaring tigers, the two big men with their capes roared loudly and rushed wildly.

The first one was eight feet tall, with a strong physique, a black face and no beard, holding two spears in his hands, and a murderous spirit; The person behind him was nine feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, majestic, and the big eyes on his handsome face almost burst out with anger. He held a strong bow and four arrows on it, and turned out to be a peerless archer.

"Die!" The nine-foot man roared and fired four arrows again.

He Lian's eyes widened with fear, and he let out a strange scream in his mouth, turned around and ran.

"Kill them, kill them......" The shield fox was first startled, then furious, and raised his sword to meet him.

The angry soldiers shouted loudly, each with his weapon raised, and followed.

"Flutter ......" was almost the same sound, and the long arrow pierced through the four soldiers in an instant.

===

"Mazi, pockmark, kill the shield fox, kill the shield fox......" The nine-foot man roared with his mouth open as he ran, and at the same time, his right hand once again drew four long arrows from the quiver behind his back.

"Chang Gong, shoot, shoot quickly......" Mazi suddenly accelerated, and his body was like a wild horse that had escaped from the reins, swept away like a hurricane.

......The long arrow slashed through the air, making a terrifying roar, and the four soldiers screamed and died from the arrow.

Mazi roared, the spear in his right hand was stationed, the spear in his left hand pointed to the sky, and his huge body rose into the air, "Kill ......"

The shield fox chopped it off with a knife.

The spear in Mazi's left hand sank, and it plunged into the lower abdomen of the shield fox with a "flutter". The shield fox let out an earth-shattering howl.

Mazi was like a thousand-pound boulder, carrying a huge inertia, and crashed into the arms of the shield fox. The shield fox flew upside down and slammed into the distance with the piercing spear.

When the Yinglingqiang people saw the tragic death of their leader, they called out.

Asako fell to the ground and watched as several spears flew towards her.

The long arrow whizzed past and went straight into the hearts of the Qiang people. A few spears suddenly stopped in front of Asako's eyes.

Mazi jumped up, raised his spear and killed again.

"Chang Gong ......"

"Pockmarks, left, left......"

Chang Gong rushed and shot four arrows at close range, instantly shooting through the four Qiang soldiers who were rushing forward, and the impact of the long arrow carried the four Qiang soldiers upside down.

Mazi raised his spear, rushed left and right, invincible; The bow swam behind it, and the arrow did not miss.

"Kill, kill them, take revenge......"

===

The Qiang people would never have imagined that they would encounter two brave warriors in this remote valley. At first, they resisted for a while, but as more and more people fell, the Qiang people became timid, and they turned around and ran, following the Xianbei people and fleeing up the mountain.

Chang Gong and Mazi then gave chase.

The arrows of the Chang Bow were like the ghosts chasing their lives, and every time his three-stone strong bow made a long roar, several people fell.

Nan Nanyun saw that the brothers around him fell to the ground and died, so he had no choice but to turn back to meet the enemy. In this way, the sharpshooters of the Han people were wantonly killed, and before they could run to the mountain, everyone died.

The pockmarked spear flew and was unstoppable, and with every step, a man would fall at his feet. Nan Nanyun felt that his war knife was not chopped on the spear, but on the bluestone slab, and under the severe pain in the tiger's mouth, the war knife flew out of his hand.

Nanbeiyun was broken, and he turned around and fled as if he had seen a bloodthirsty beast. Mazi was quick with his eyes, and a spear pierced Nanbeiyun's thigh, nailing him firmly to the ground.

"King, run, run......" Nanbeiyun knew that he would die, and shouted hoarsely at Helian's figure, "Run......"

Mazi shook violently, his eyes suddenly widened, and he let out a heaven-shattering roar: "Changgong, that's the Xianbei King, kill him, kill him......"

Chang Gong raised his head to the sky and roared, "Go die......"

With all his strength, he drew the bowstring. "Boom......" The bowstring broke for him.

Chang Gong roared angrily, threw away the strong bow, leaned over to pick up Nan Nan Yun's war knife, and chased wildly, "Take your life to ......"

Mazi pulled out his spear and aimed it at Nan Nan Yun's head. North and South Yunkou spurted blood, and died instantly.

===

Chang Gong chopped four times in a row, killed four people in a row, and killed with one knife, and there was no life.

He Lian went crazy, he brandished his war knife, faced the bloody man like a hill, and fought to the death. Only by killing him can you escape naturally.

Chang Gong took two steps back, and was about to raise his sword to attack, but stepped on the dead man's head. Chang Gong screamed and fell on his back.

He Lian screamed excitedly and flew into the air.

"Die...... Chang Gong gritted his teeth, reached out and escaped a delicate crossbow from his bosom, aimed at the air and shot out.

The three iron arrows pierced through Helian in an instant, and rushed into the sky with three blood beads.

And Lian fell heavily to the ground and died.

=====================

Lingwu Valley is located at the eastern foot of Helan Mountain, and is the only place to enter and exit Helan Mountain.

Captains Yang Ding, Hu Zhen and Li Su led 20,000 foot soldiers and set up a plum blossom-shaped blocking formation in Lingwu Valley. Five phalanxes of 3,000 people were outside, and the Chinese army phalanx of 5,000 people was in the center.

Yang Ding is in his sixties and has gray hair.

He looked at the approaching Xianbei army, and said with a smile to Hu Zhen and Li Su who were accompanying him on the left and right: "In this battle, we will annihilate all the Xianbei people." ”

"Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely follow your wishes." Li Su said with a smile, "After this battle, we will send the old man back to his hometown." ”

"The boss has fought all his life, and it's time to rest." Hu Zhen said, "The little grandson was born, you haven't seen it yet, right?" ”

Yang Ding touched the jade pendant in his arms and said with a smile: "Yes, I should also go back and hug my grandson." He took out the jade pendant from his arms and handed it to Li Sudao, "Look at it, how about my gift?" ”

Li Su put the jade pendant to his mouth and kissed it, and said with a smile: "This is even if I kiss your little grandson." ”

Hu Zhen hurriedly snatched the jade pendant from Li Su's hand and kissed it several times in a row, "Boss, your little grandson's face is so tender." ”

"You two ......," Yang Ding laughed.

"Boss, does the little grandson have a name?" Li Su asked.

"There's a letter from home saying I'll get it when I go back." Yang Ding said with a smile, "I've already thought about it, so I'll call it Yang Ling." We won the battle in Lingwu Valley, and we must always leave a memorial. ”

At this time, the Xianbei people sounded the horn of attack.

Yang Ding's white eyebrows were high, and he shouted wildly: "Children, drum ......"

===

Tuoba Feng sighed.

"I really didn't expect that it was Dong Zhuo's army that arrived here. In this way, even if we are not defeated at the hands of the leopards, we must withdraw our troops. ”

"This trick of the Han people is very vicious." Tuoba Hui nodded and said, "The news we got was that Dong Zhuo led the army to Hanyang to quell the rebellion, but it turned out to be fake. Dong Zhuo should occupy the Lingzhou and Shanghe areas to cut off our back roads, and then attack us with the leopards in front and back, but how did he get to Lingwu Valley? Did he delay the capture of Lingzhou? ”

"We lost too quickly." Tuoba Feng smiled bitterly, "The withdrawal will be faster." Luckily, if Dong Zhuo cuts off our back road and surrounds us in the area of the Qingshui River, we will be completely annihilated. ”

"How did we fight so badly in this battle?" Tuoba Han said angrily, "We have never fought such a crushing defeat. ”

Tuoba Feng and Tuoba Yan looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Everyone has their own thoughts, and it is strange that this battle is undefeated, but I didn't expect to lose so badly.

Tuoba Feng felt very uncomfortable in his heart, although his goal was achieved, but in order to achieve this goal, the price paid by Xianbei Country was too great. But thinking of the rise of the Tuoba tribe in the future, he was at ease. If Danhan Mountain is not buried, how will the Tuoba tribe rise?

"My lord, when will the wolf smoke be lit?"

Tuoba Feng looked up at the blue sky and did not speak.

A few chirping arrows suddenly shot out from the battle array of the Han army on the opposite side, and the sharp and piercing sound reached the sky.

Tuoba Feng's face changed, and he said loudly: "The Han people have an ambush. ”

"Order all the departments, line up in a dense formation, and prepare to deal with the Han army's iron cavalry."

"Blow the trumpet, the front army attack, immediately charge into battle."

"Light the wolf smoke, light the wolf smoke."

===

On the mountains on both sides, about seven or eight hundred steps away from the battlefield, the Han army's iron cavalry was ready to go.

Dong Zhuo raised his sword high and roared loudly: "Brothers, kill ......"

He took the lead and rushed down the hill first.

Five thousand iron horsemen echoed in unison, roaring like thunder, and everyone followed, like a flash flood, pouring down.

On the other side of the valley, Niu Fu and five thousand iron horsemen also fought violently on the battlefield at the same time.

In the Lingwu Valley, the sound of killing shook the sky.

=====================

This is Helian?

Li Hong looked at the head in his hand, looked left and right, and couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

This is Helian? Helian is the human head in my hand? Li Hong remembered that when he was in Xianbei Country, remembered Murong Feng's hateful face, and remembered Fengxue's grief-stricken tears, Li Hong was disillusioned in an instant.

This is Helian, this is the king of Xianbei Kingdom, this is the most powerful person on the grassland, his final ending is a pile of white bones on the barren mountains and mountains, he is like all people, and in the end he is a bowl of dust in this world, and all grievances and hatreds disappear with Helian's death.

Li Hong sighed slightly, and handed the head in his hand to Zheng Xin.

"Let's send it to Luoyang."

===

Li Hong helped up the bloody Changgong and pockmarks.

"The two strong men have made great achievements for the Han Dynasty, and in the future, all the people of the Han Kingdom will remember the names of the two strong men, and they all know that there are two heroes and heroes who killed the Xianbei King in Liancheng in Beidi County."

Chang Gong and Mazi looked at each other, bowed down and said, "My lord, we are just here for revenge, and we don't want to covet any fame. If there's nothing else to do, we'll take our leave. ”

Li Hong smiled and said admiringly: "Good man." I don't know what the two strong men are called? ”

"The villain has a bow, the words have no edge, and there are no people in Changshan."

"The villain Chen Jian, the words are easy to do, and the people of Yuzhou Chen Guo." Mazi pointed to the dark spots on his face and said, "Because I have a lot of pockmarks on my face, my friends call me Chen Hemp." ”

"You're not from the Northlands?" Li Hong asked in surprise, "Then why did you come to the border county?" ”

Chang Gong smiled bitterly and said, "Don't hide it, my lord, we are all guilty bodies, and we fled here to avoid trouble." I shot a ploughing horse by mistake in my hometown, and Mazi killed someone because of the uneven fight, so I ......"

"Today, Your Majesty has granted amnesty to the world every year, don't you know?" Li Hong asked strangely, "You can go home a long time ago." ”

"Home?" Chang Gong smiled miserably, "Where do we still have a home, it's long gone." I finally recognized a few friends here, and let Hu Ren kill them. ”

Mazi looked sad and bowed his head and was silent.

Li Hong's heart was sour. Home, how can you have a home.

"If you two are homeless, you can join the army with me, and you can be regarded as having a place to live." Li Hong said, "You wander around, after all, it is not a long-term solution. ”

Chang Gong and Mazi admired Li Hong's name for a long time, and when they saw Li Hong's earnest words, they hurriedly bowed to the ground and were willing to serve the country in the army.

===

"Are you going to Lingwu Valley?" Asako stood up and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, we're going to chase the army of Xianbei."

"Is it to encircle and annihilate the Xianbei people?" Chang Gong asked.

"Encirclement?" Li Hong smiled, "How to surround it?" We can't even catch up now. ”

"My lord, isn't General Dong Zhuo's army in Lingwu Valley?" Chang Gong said, "You go one after the other, don't you surround the Xianbei people." ”

Li Hong was taken aback, "What did you say?" General Dong Zhuo's army? When did you see that? ”

======================
