Chapter 533: Li Mu's Determination

Ouyang Shuo's arrival has injected a dose of strength for Gui Ping's attention. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the number of Shenwu Guards he brought was less than three thousand, it was a truly invincible army. They have gone through countless battles, big and small, and have not lost a single one.

Whether it was the fierce Jiangdong warriors or the weird Chiyou Blood Guard, they did not let this army fall.

Every member of the Divine Warrior Guard has been promoted to the twelfth rank of a hundred battle elite soldiers, reaching the limit of what a soldier rank can reach. Its individual combat power is comparable to that of junior generals, and even intermediate generals.

Ouyang Shuo was confident that even with just relying on Shenwu Wei, he would be able to hold the pass for a day.

And in the rear of Guiping Pass, there are two independent divisions of Shanman who are rushing to reinforce them. In addition, the Leopard Tao Army led by Han Xin is estimated to be only two days away from Guiping Pass.

The coalition army's attempt to take Guiping Pass is afraid that it will come to naught.

……

Ouyang Shuo led his troops into the customs, and when he saw the scene on the city wall, his eyes couldn't help but twitch. I saw countless mountain barbarian warriors, lying in pools of blood, and they couldn't be counted at all.

Countless arrows were stuck upside down on the corpse.

The four Shanman Independent Divisions planned by Ouyang Shuo broke a pillar before they got the official number. I'm afraid that even the coalition forces would not think about what kind of damage their actions have caused to Shanhai City.

Obviously, the mountain barbarians have reached their most difficult moment.

Therefore, without any greetings, as soon as the Shenwu Wei climbed the city wall, he immediately attacked, and took position one by one, making up for the defensive gap left by the death of the mountain barbarians, and fighting with the coalition forces.

Even Ouyang Shuo didn't say anything, pulled out the Chixiao Sword on his waist, and stepped forward directly. Even if he didn't say a word, he was using the most direct actions to boost morale and motivate the soldiers to fight bravely.

"Prince!"

"King!"

With the appearance of Ouyang Shuo, above the city, bursts of cheers continued to sound, one after another. The warriors shouted the name of the prince and fearlessly slaughtered forward.

And at the moment when Ouyang Shuo arrived at Guiping Pass, the blood-colored whirlpool above Guan Pass's head was shocked. A huge blood-colored dragon suddenly arrived and directly suppressed the huge whirlpool.

The blood-colored vortex immediately stopped turning.

Suddenly, an invisible qi luck came under the hood of the warriors of Shanhai City.

If someone who cares about it takes a closer look, they will be shocked to find that at this moment, more than half of the tens of thousands of arrows fired by the coalition forces have quietly changed their trajectories, causing the target to miss.

All of a sudden, the casualties of the fighters plummeted.

And this is the manifestation of luck.

In the first battle of Guipingguan, because of the timely appearance of Shenwuwei, the war situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Although the coalition forces still have the upper hand, Li Mu is no longer confident that he will be able to take Guiping Pass before noon.

Especially the casualty data of the coalition forces made Li Mudu's heart tremble.

The main force attacking the pass was 50,000 sword and shield soldiers of the front army, and 20,000 crossbowmen were only long-range auxiliaries. As for the 10,000 cavalry troops, they were only used as reserves.

In yesterday's battle, more than half of the sword and shield soldiers were lost. Coupled with today's battle, the number of sword and shield soldiers is less than 20,000, and it seems that it will not be able to form an overwhelming advantage over the city.

At the head of Guiping Pass, in addition to the more than 2,300 Shenwu guards brought by Ouyang Shuo, there were more than 2,000 mountain barbarian warriors left, and the total number was close to 5,000.

With 20,000 sword and shield soldiers to attack the 5,000 ace troops of Shanhai City, Li Mu really didn't have this confidence.

Not to mention that the enemy army is the trump card of trump cards, even if the city is defending the city at this time is an ordinary elite army, the ratio of attack to defense is one to four, which is an extremely dangerous line.

Not to mention, they were attacking a steep pass.

"It can't go on like this!"

Li Mu shook his head, glanced at the knights on the left and right, and issued a bloody military order: 10,000 cavalry were required to abandon their horses, temporarily serve as infantry, and join the siege sequence.

You must know that these cavalry are all elites trained by Li Mu, and what they are best at is cavalry warfare in the wilderness. Now, they had to abandon their sharpest war horses and climb the ladder to attack the city.

When Li Mu thought about it, he felt distressed.

It is a pity that the development of the situation can no longer tolerate his mercy.

Li Mu knew very well that he had to maintain his numerical superiority over the enemy in order to be able to capture the opposite level.

Otherwise, everything is not tied.

I have to say that Li Mu is indeed a famous general.

At the critical moment, a strong man can break his wrist and do things without delay.

The cavalry troops were the personal guards brought out by Li Mu, and naturally there was no one of them. After receiving the general's military order, without any hesitation, he brushed his horse one by one, pulled out the scimitar at his waist, and marched forward in formation.

10,000 recuperated and vigorous cavalrymen suddenly threw themselves into the front line of the battlefield.

The defensive pressure of Shenwuwei suddenly increased greatly.

What's worse is that the madness of the mountain barbarians has ended, and they have begun to enter a period of weakness, and their combat power has been greatly reduced. All of a sudden, the entire line of defense began to crumble again.

Not to mention the mountain barbarians, even if it is a Shenwuwei, after a day and a half of long-distance running, it is not good to be tired. The current war is just overdrawing and squeezing their physical strength in advance.

It has to be said that the battlefield is indeed changing rapidly.

The balance of war may turn at any time because of a single decision.

Ouyang Shuo's perception was so keen, he couldn't help frowning when he noticed the abnormality of the battlefield at once.

The decisiveness of the enemy's commander was indeed somewhat unexpected by him.

At this time, it is necessary to have a new army to replace the warriors who descend from the mountains. Otherwise, if the mad mountain barbarians are allowed to hold on, it will only cause more casualties.

Once all the Shanmen are killed, no matter how strong the Shenwu Wei is, it will be useless.

Obviously, Ouyang Shuo's previous judgment was too optimistic.

The commander of the coalition is really a difficult opponent.

The question is, where to go now, to find a new army?

Ouyang Shuo's brows furrowed, and he tried to search in his mind, not letting go of any detail.

Suddenly, a force appeared in his mind.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo's spirit was shocked, and he shouted loudly: "Pei Ju! ”

"The old minister is here!"

Pei Ju never left the city tower, and when he heard the shout of the prince, he immediately rushed over.

"Go, go and bring up the Taiping soldiers who are detained in the pass and issue them weapons."

When the Praetorian Guard Division captured Guiping Pass, except for those who died in battle, the rest of the Taiping army surrendered to Shanhai City, with more than 3,000 people. They were temporarily held in the passes, pending the reorganization of the Military Affairs Agency.

Now, this subordinate pawn has become Ouyang Shuo's only hope.

"Junhou, at this time, I am afraid that it will be ......"

When Pei Ju heard this, his expression was a little hesitant.

The Taiping Army's surrender is different from other surrenders. Even if they surrender, it is very likely that there will still be die-hard believers of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan among them.

Therefore, this group of soldiers has always been an unstable factor.

It is necessary to wait for the Military Intelligence Department to carefully investigate, and then completely disrupt the reorganization before it can be used with confidence.

And now, obviously, is not a good time to use the pawn.

If one is not good, it may have the opposite effect and cause an even greater tragedy.

Therefore, before the prince led his troops to come to reinforcements, even in the most desperate moment, Pei Ju did not think about activating the three thousand Taiping soldiers imprisoned in the pass.

Of course, this is also related to Pei Ju's own lack of prestige.

Of course, Ouyang Shuo was aware of Pei Ju's concerns, and waved his hand resolutely, "I can't care so much now, let's deal with the battle situation in front of me first." I'll arrange a squadron of Shenwu Wei for you. ”

As he spoke, Ouyang Shuo glanced at Pei Ju with deep meaning.

Obviously, Ouyang Shuo also had doubts about this, but he had to do it. The compromise solution was to arrange a hundred Shenwu guards to monitor the Taiping army and take over their command.

"Understood!"

Pei Ju knew that the situation was urgent, so he didn't say anything more. The prince arranged for him to deal with the soldiers, not only because there was no one available at hand, but also because he hoped for his diplomatic skills.

Whether or not he can appease the hearts of the Taiping Army's soldiers depends on Pei Ju.

……

Ouyang Shuo didn't have time to think about it, and after arranging it, he turned around and joined the queue of fighting.

This battle can be described as the most difficult battle Ouyang Shuo has experienced.

Even if he confronted the Chiyou army, he didn't force Ouyang Shuo to this step.

I have to say that this hand of the coalition forces is really beautiful.

Another half hour passed.

The feeling of weakness in the body of the mountain barbarian warrior is getting stronger and stronger, and it is a little difficult to even pick up a weapon. At this time, the "reinforcements" that Ouyang Shuo was looking forward to did not appear for a long time.

"Could it be that Pei Ju went to persuade the pawn, and something happened?"

Ouyang Shuo's heart sank, and he was already ready to fail.

At this time, it is useless to let the mountain resist hard.

Ouyang Shuo had to give an order to let all the mountain barbarian warriors retreat.

The entire defense line was taken over by the Shenwu Guard.

All of a sudden, the pressure mounted.

Even Ouyang Shuo was no longer relaxed, and he had no time to think.

Because every moment, several, or even more than a dozen coalition soldiers, rushed towards him.

The Chixiao Sword in Ouyang Shuo's hand bloomed with blood-colored light.

Strictly speaking, this is also the first appearance of the Chixiao Sword, which amazed the world.

It's a pity that no one appreciates it.

The swordsmanship of "Killing Sword" was skillfully used by Ouyang Shuo.

Perhaps, at this moment, Ouyang Shuo deeply understood the essence of killing the sword.

Killing swords, swords of the battlefield also.

Only the battlefield is its fate.

The peerless swordsmanship submerged in history has reappeared in the world, rolling up monstrous killings.

Xu was infected by the killing sword, Ouyang Shuo's mind at this time was surprisingly calm, thoughtless, he no longer paid attention to the entire battle situation, and no longer thought about why Pei Ju did not appear.

All that was left in my heart was the sword intent of killing the sword.

Any enemy who stood in his way was shrouded in sword intent. (To be continued.) )
