Chapter Seventy-Five: Within Ten Moves (1)
Haju is located halfway between Bongsang City and Jinju. Hezhou is also about the same distance from the two places, and the geographical location is very important.
If you seize Hezhou, you will be able to advance and retreat more freely. The important thing is that it is also closer to Fengxiang.
It's also easier to hit Beifu.
The Mutian Sect is divided into different places, and Shuhaju and Jinju are the most important. After Jinzhou was captured by the southern border, Qin Dingbian added many more horses in Hezhou.
The Shepherd's Sect is entrenched in Ha State, twice as many people as Leh.
And there are many masters.
Lang Kuohai, the deputy head of the Mutian Sect, sat in the middle of the river.
The alliance Tianfeng Villa in Beifu is also in Hezhou.
Moreover, its alliance Iron Boss and the Black River Gang are also stationed in Hezhou.
The total number of people was 3,000.
These Lin Yi have already been investigated.
Although the enemy is strong in River State, they are stronger.
If nothing else, Lin Yi swore to take Hezhou.
Lin Yi divided the people and horses in the south into two roads, one way to the big road and the other to the small road. If the Mutian Sect hears the wind and blocks it, it can only block one of them.
Lin Yi returned with hope, Zeng Tengyun, Taishijia, Ma Jia, Hua Jia, and Nanyuan people, adding up to more than 1,500 people walking the road. Hu Yanting, Zuo Chaoyang, and Zeng Tengyun took the rest of the people to the path.
Leh is more than a day's journey from River State.
The southern centaurs had just taken Leh, and morale was high.
Regardless of their exhaustion, they roared towards Hezhou.
Along the way, the banner of the southern border was unfurled, and the dust kicked up by more than a thousand horses galloped and did not disperse for several miles behind him. The people along the way were stunned.
Only then did people know that the people and horses in the south had penetrated into the territory of the Beifu forces, and this was a war with the Beifu.
So people rushed to tell each other that the Southern Courtyard was going to attack the Northern Mansion.
Many people watched the heroes of the southern realm on both sides of the road, and most of them wanted to see the style of the king of the southern realm.
Many people also let out bursts of cheers at the galloping southerners.
According to the usual journey of at least one and a half days, Lin Yi and the others took a short rest on the road, and it took them eleven hours to arrive in Hezhou.
When I arrived in Hezhou, the dawn had risen in the sky.
At this time, Xiao Lianqin's people also sent an urgent report, saying that Hu Yanting and Zuo Chaoyang were ambushed by the Mutian Sect on the path. I don't know how many people there are. Now the two sides are in the midst of a fierce fight.
Xiao Lianqin's people also sent a message from Zuo Chaoyang, so that Lin Yi didn't have to send someone to help, they could handle it.
In fact, Lin Yi didn't plan to send someone to help. It just so happened that the people and horses were entangled in many enemies, and they could take the opportunity to attack the Hezhou Mutian Sect.
It turned out that Leh was raided by men and horses from the south, and the news also reached Lang Kuohai.
Lang Kuohai was shocked, they thought that the southern realm would have to prepare for a few more days before launching an attack on the Mutian Sect. I didn't expect the south to do it now.
And the reinforcements from Beifu just set off.
Lang Kuohai hurriedly reported to Qin Dingfang, and at the same time recruited all the allies and Mutianjiao people in Hezhou.
Lang Kuohai and Shen Huang summed it up. The southern frontier has taken Leh, and they will have to rest for a day before attacking River State.
There are two roads to Hezhou, a big road and a small road, and it is difficult for Lang Kuohai to judge which way Lin Yi will go.
So Lang Kuohai asked the Heihe Gang, the Iron Boss, and seven or eight hundred people from the Mutian Sect to set up an ambush on the path.
That adds up to sixteen or seven hundred people.
As for the main road, Lang Kuohai asked the local government to come forward and send people to block the main road. As long as it is delayed until the elite power of Beifu arrives, you will have no worries.
Lang Kuohai sat in the separate teaching.
General Hezhou also promised Lang Kuohai that he would definitely block the martial arts people in the south.
The state capital yamen also sent hundreds of officials to help.
As a result, General Hezhou with more than 1,000 soldiers and those officials was about to set up a card on the main road, so Feng Liancheng sent Zhao Li and a general to coordinate. As a result, the military horses of Hezhou were sent back.
That's why Lin Yi and they can come unimpeded.
Lin Yi stood on his horse and said loudly to everyone: "Don't hide it from the brothers, the enemy is also on guard. The head of Huyan was blocked by the men and horses of the Mutian Sect on the path, and they were fighting fiercely. I also got the information that Lang Kuohai gave up all the halls and concentrated on guarding the sect. Therefore, this battle will be harder and more fierce than Leh. We were all tired from a long day's rush, but we don't have time to recuperate. Mutian Sect Master Li Tianwolf has led a large number of masters out of the North Mansion, drag it down, as soon as the elite of the North Mansion arrives, we will run for nothing. Brothers, this battle is related to the overall situation, Lin Yi hopes that all the brothers will fight hard and fight in Dinghezhou!"
The crowd brandished their weapons on their horses, and the variety of weapons was as spectacular as a forest. More than a thousand people let out an impassioned roar.
"The ...... of Dinghe Prefecture in World War I"
The horses that sat down seemed to be neighing from their owners' infections.
So Lin Yi took these tired but steel-willed southern heroes to the Mutian Division.
The Mutian Sect is located outside the city, and no matter the area and scale, it is difficult to compare with other sects.
Lin Yi led the people to stop twenty zhang away from the sect.
I saw that the door of the Hezhou branch was closed.
The masters of the Mutian Sect on the watchtower were waiting for them.
There were also many Mutian Sect masters on the wall, and hundreds of strong arrows were facing forward.
But to Lin Yi and everyone's surprise, at this moment, in the Mutian Division, there were murderous voices, and the screams were endless. And fire and smoke continued to rise. It was clear that someone had invaded the sect from the other side and set fire to the house.
But the guards on the front side of the Shepherd Sect were unmoved.
They all stared at Lin Yi nervously.
Their job is to hold the front.
Zeng Tengyun shouted excitedly: "Haha, it must be that the head of Huyan and Zuo Chaoyang defeated the men and horses intercepted by the Mutian Sect and led people to attack from the north." ”
When the crowd heard him say this, they were even more excited, and they let out a shout of excitement.
But Lin Yi didn't think it was Zuo Chaoyang, and they attacked the Mutian Division.
Even if Zuo Chaoyang and the others defeated the enemy who was ambushed by the path, they would not be so fast at all.
This is very strange.
Who the hell attacked the Hezhou branch?
But Lin Yi knew that no matter who attacked the Mutian Division, he had helped them anyway.
Lin Yi swung his sword forward and said loudly: "Attack!"
When he returned, he let out a thunderous roar of excitement.
"This house is big enough, there must be more gold and silver, more beauties. Hahaha......"
After Lin Yi gave an order, the masters of the southern realm continued to whistle, and they rushed towards the Mutian Division.
More than a thousand horses neighed and rushed towards the Mu Tian Sect, their hooves digging up pieces of dirt, and the loess flying.
Lin Yi, Wang Hui, Zeng Tengyun, Zeng Xiaotong and others rushed to the nearest place.
Just a few feet away from the palace gate, the enemy's crossbow arrows rained down like a torrent of arrows.
Lin Yi's body rose up.
The sword in Lin Yi's hand swung out several swords, and then these swords did not break, turning into countless dazzling flying towards those arrow rains.
In an instant, at least dozens of arrows were shattered by Lin Yi's sword.
Looking back, Zeng Tengyun took out his sword, and each shot down many arrows.
When he returned, he flew into a watchtower and threw several of the archers inside into a bloody blur. Then he swept out of the watchtower, roared, and slammed his palms against the watchtower.
The watchtower collapsed with a thud.
This made the people of the Shepherd Sect tremble, and the people of the southern realm let out bursts of joy.
Lin Yi went up to the palace wall, and when the sword light flashed, the enemy fell screaming with blood and wine......
Lin Yi killed several people, entered the mansion with Zeng Tengyun, opened the two big iron gates from the inside, and the people and horses in the south rushed over and dismounted, and then swarmed in.
