Chapter 579: Escape
Yuqing's face was solemn, and she said worriedly: "Brother-in-law, don't be too happy, although our war horses have rested for a while, their physical strength is still consumed a lot, they have just left the city, and the horsepower is sufficient, if it takes a long time, it must be us who will suffer in the end." ”
Yuan Fang said disapprerovingly: "Whatever they chase, wait until Wanmuling has their good-looking." ”
Yuqing said worriedly: "With such a high intensity, I'm worried that the war horse won't be able to hold up Wanmuling." Yuan Fang couldn't help frowning when he heard this, thinking about the distance from Wanmuling.
This is not over, Yuqing borrowed and said: "I have taken a look, the two groups of pursuers add up to almost 20,000 people, even if we can escape to Wanmuling, plus Shi Ping's 10,000 troops are about the same as them, it is not easy to win, and the losses will be very large." ”
Yuan Fang looked at Yuqing: "What are you going to do?" Yuan Fang knew Yuqing very well, and when she said this, she must have thought of something.
Sure enough, Yuqing proposed: "The current solution is to divide the soldiers into two ways and disperse the pursuers, I will take one of the pursuers to the hilly area south of Wanmuling to go around in circles, brother-in-law, you take the other part of the pursuers to Wanmuling, and Shi Ping will solve them as soon as possible and then come to pick me up." ”
Yuan Fang shook his head vigorously: "No, you just said, our horsepower is not as sufficient as the other party, it will be very dangerous for you to do that, no, I don't agree, it's a big deal to fight with them, anyway, we won't suffer." ”
Yuqing smiled with relief, and said again: "That will be a greater loss, brother-in-law, you will listen to me this time, don't worry, I will take the female soldier away, the female soldier is lighter, and the horsepower consumed is much less than that of the other party, so it should be able to hold on for a longer time, as long as you hurry, you should have time to rush over." Yuan Fang felt that what Yuqing said was not unreasonable, but he was still not at ease in his heart, and in the end, under Yuqing's insistence, he nodded and agreed.
Before parting, Yuan Fang repeatedly told Yuqing to be careful, if he really can't do it, just find a hill to defend, and he will rush over to join him as soon as possible.
Yuqing didn't talk nonsense, and told Xia Yi that the girls must protect Yuan Fang's safety, and then took four thousand female soldiers to break away from the direction of the large army to the south and went straight to the hilly area not far from Wanmuling.
Pang Ying and Ling Hu were very depressed, Ling Hu was stunned to let his heavy cavalry change into light armor to improve his speed in order to catch Yuan Fang this time, but even so, he still let Yuan Fang run away, of course Ling Hu and Pang Ying would not give up so easily, they followed and bit tightly, they both knew their own advantages, and they knew that the final victory of the long-distance attack must be themselves, but just when everyone had adapted to the rhythm, the enemy in front of them actually divided their troops into two ways and fled separately, which made Pang Ying and Ling Hu depressed and saw hope at the same time, The lack of troops and the division of troops is a taboo in the march, and the other party's actions can only prove that they have reached the end of the road, which makes the two more confident, and after a brief discussion, the two decided to pursue separately, and did not let go of any of them.
Pursuing Yuan Fang is Ling Hu and his eight thousand light horses, before Ling Hu's war horses lost more than half, and later added a lot, now all the staff are dispatched, so there will be eight thousand, Pang Ying's light cavalry did not have any losses yesterday, still maintained a full number, 10,000 light horses chased after Yuqing, overlooking from the sky, the original one jump of the stout earth dragon was divided into two, incarnated into two, but its momentum did not decrease at all, it was spectacular.
Time passed little by little, Ling Hu was still in hot pursuit, he would not give up this excellent opportunity, he wanted to kill the shameless Yuan Fang with his own hands to avenge His Royal Highness the King of Qin, he was desperate, his eyes were red, through the smoke and dust, staring at the handsome flag in front of him.
After almost two full hours of galloping, the physical strength of the war horses on both sides was exhausted, in comparison, Ling Hu's side was relatively better, but it was only some, and if he wanted to catch up with Yuan Fang, he had to continue to insist.
Yuan Fang was depressed and apprehensive in his heart, he had already felt that the war horse was about to reach its limit, but fortunately, there was Wanmuling not far ahead, as long as they insisted there, it would be the beginning of their Jedi counterattack. Shouting loudly, everyone exerted their strength again and went straight to Wanmuling.
In the woods of Wanmuling, Shi Ping had already found Yuan Fang and his party from far and near, and was ready for battle, but the dust splashed by the horses galloping was overwhelming, and he could only tell from a distance that this was a galloping cavalry unit, but he couldn't see the specific situation in the smoke and dust, let alone distinguish between friend and foe, so Shi Ping waited a little longer, waiting for Yuan Fang to approach, waiting to give a fatal blow to the enemy army behind.
Closer, closer, Shi Ping sat down and the war horse was infected by the tense atmosphere and kept snorting, at this moment, Shi Ping's face changed greatly, rushing to the front of the cavalry, a war horse finally fell headlong due to physical exhaustion, followed by the second and third, there were constantly war horses falling, Shi Ping no longer hesitated, an order, a horse took the lead with the cavalry under his command to rush out of the woods, and did not care about the formation, so he rushed diagonally to the waist and ribs of the earth dragon in a messy straggler formation, and constantly adjusted the direction.
Ling Hu, who had been chasing Yuan Fang, was actually uneasy, this time he ran so far, it was far beyond the detection range of his own scouts, he was also worried that the other party had an ambush, but seeing that the enemy was in front of him, he thought about it in every way, he still didn't give up, when the enemy's front war horse fell to the ground, causing chaos at the same time, Ling Hu's eyes lit up, he finally waited, that damn guy would definitely not be able to run away this time.
Didn't wait for Ling Hu to be happy for too long, a large number of cavalry teams were killed in the woods in front of him, Ling Hu was suddenly shocked, he was impulsive, but he was not stupid, in this case, if he fought hard, there was only a dead end, but what if he didn't fight? Escape? At this time, their war horses have also reached their limit, and they can't escape the pursuit of that new force at all, and once they lose their impact, it will be difficult to resist the opponent's cavalry.
In a flash of lightning, Ling Hu made the most correct decision for him, continued to move forward, and killed Yuan Fang.
Accelerate, accelerate, continue to accelerate, at this time, Ling Hu and his cavalry have already raised their speed to the limit, or raised their cavalry guns, or waved their swords, desperately rushing forward, they want to rush into the camp of the deserters in front before the other party's reinforcements arrive, only in this way, they may still have a glimmer of life. Ling Hu accelerated, Shi Ping also accelerated again, as the two sides got closer and closer, Shi Ping had already discovered the dividing line between the enemy and us, and crashed headlong into the gap between the two, colliding with Ling Hu's men and horses diagonally.
The muffled sound of the horse spear piercing into the human body, the sound of the bones breaking when the horse hits, the sword splitting the armor, the crossbow arrow piercing the body, for a while, there was a blood rain at the place where the two sides were fighting, the cavalry on both sides hedged, the scene was extremely tragic, there was no skill in such a battle, some were just a fierce charge that was not afraid of death, two torrents of canine teeth passed, leaving a large number of corpses on the ground.
