Chapter 10: An emergency among thousands of troops

The Tatar became even more crazy when he saw Azig's head under Zhao Yuxiao. Like moths rushing to a flame, the hundreds of riders in front turned around and attacked, and thousands of riders behind them also poured into the pass.

Just inside the pass, it was surrounded by water!

Zhao Yu sat on the horse and remained motionless. His back was like Mount Tai, and in his palm was a long knife, which was like the black and white captivating chain. With the flash of the knife, several heads flew up.

There seemed to be eyes on his back. No matter where the swords or spears came from from all directions, they were all cut off by him. In a circle, they were all corpses in a matter of seconds!

The long knife was swung up and turned into a huge knife ball, covering a person and a horse in it.

The war horse suddenly realized that it was not its original owner, and jumped up and down. However, Zhao Yu pinched the horse's belly and gave it a heavy drop, and suppressed it.

On the mountain, several Ming army scouts were so shocked that their breathing became difficult.

The strong man jumped down from the hill, killed the Tatar general with a sword, and then rode his horse back and forth to kill him. In just a moment, fifty or sixty horsemen fell under his sword.

No one had their head chopped off.

The knife can't even be seen. It was clear that wherever a knife ball passed, blood flowed into a river!

Zhao Yu did not stop at one place, but rode his horse to kill, just so that the corpses would not block the path of killing. Otherwise, the corpses would pile up, and the pass would be too small, and soon the Tatars would not be able to rush in, and the killing would be slow.

But Tatars are not all idiots.

Although Azig died, there were other middle-level generals who saw that the pass was narrow and not conducive to an army attack, so they shouted to withdraw from the pass.

Zhao Yu followed directly and killed more than a hundred people behind him before rushing out of the pass.

At this time, the Tatar army was far away from the pass and was setting up a formation in the wilderness.

Seeing Zhao Yu, who was like a demon god, coming out of the pass, he was met with a hail of arrows.

How could Zhao Yu be afraid?

He just danced the sword away and protected the war horse under his crotch, but he didn't care much about it. An arrow landed on him, but it was easily deflected by the extremely tough skin, without even a white dot falling!

In front of thousands of troops, one man, one horse, one sword, rushed straight out of the shroud of arrows, and crashed into the Tatar army!

On the hills in the distance, the Ming army's scouts were speechless.

"Could it be that Changshan Zhao Zilong is possessed, and Changbanpo goes in and out seven times?!"

Someone is gibbering.

"Zhao Zilong is not as good as him. It must be the overlord of Chu who comes to this world!"

While several people were murmuring, the leader finally came to his senses and shouted: "Hurry, hurry, hurry back to Tashan and ask the commander-in-chief to send troops! What can these Tatars do not want this strong man? The military exploits are right in front of them!"

Several other people also woke up from a dream and hurriedly returned to Tashan.

The leader finally regained consciousness and shouted: "Ride back!" He pointed to the many horses that had lost their owners at the pass below, and then pointed at the heads and said: "Each person can bring a few heads, I am not afraid that the commander-in-chief will not believe it!"

...

Tashan guard Li Fuming was anxious.

Azig led his army to attack, intending to cut off the retreat of Songshan's army. Although they marched day and night, the Ming army also had scouts. At dawn, the movement of Azig's army was noticed.

With nearly 10,000 Tatar troops, Li Fuming thought he could not hold on. Without him, Yi Tashan has few soldiers, only 3,000, which is not the main force. The main force went to Songshan from the governor.

Second, there was a shortage of military equipment in Tashan, so they all went to Songshan from the supervisor.

In addition, Tashan's strategic location is important in this battle. If it is breached, Songshan's retreat and food routes will be cut off, leaving the army alone. If things fail, he, Li Fuming, will be guilty of the greatest crime.

There are few soldiers and they dare not attack. The Tatars are good at field warfare.

There are few equipment and weak defense.

While he sent people to Ningyuan to ask for help, he sent people to take a detour to Songshan to report the news. At the same time, he asked the scouts to pay attention to the movements of the Tatar army, and at the same time, he ordered people to guard and defend.

At noon, a scout suddenly came to report.

Li Fuming was startled and shouted quickly: "Where has the Tatar army gone? Come quickly!"

Those scouts were the first ones who came back after meeting Zhao Yu in the woods on the mountain.

The scout did not dare to neglect, and told what he saw and heard: "The Tatar army has arrived outside the Lianshan Pass. There was a man who said that he wanted to give a military tribute to the commander-in-chief. We did not dare to neglect, so Come back quickly. The boss is still there, saying he wants to see how this man sounds so arrogant."

When Li Fuming heard this, he didn't care about the man who suddenly appeared. He was just anxious: "Have we arrived at the Lianshan Pass? Let the brothers in Lianshan Fort be on guard. No one is allowed to leave Lianshan Fort without my order!"

Lianshan Fort and Tashan Fort are the horns of each other, but Lianshan Fort is just an outpost on the mountain outside Tashan Fort, with only two to three hundred people in it. Used as a nail.

The place where Zhao Yu intercepted Azige was actually not far from Lianshan Fort.

Li Fuming gave the order, but still felt uneasy, and said: "Continue to observe the movements of the Tatars." Then he sent these scouts away.

But within a moment, another scout came to report.

Li Fuming said: "Call in quickly."

It was the scout leaders, each with heads hanging on their waists, who rushed in: "General Soldier, send troops!"

This sentence was so sudden and tight that Li Fuming was slightly startled when he heard it. He first looked at the heads with money rat tails and braids on the waists of several scouts and said, "What's going on? Where did these Tatar heads come from?!"

So the scouts talked a lot, telling each other what they had just heard and witnessed.

The only thing is that the overlord of Chu came to the world, and the Tatars who were killed were bleeding like rivers, and they were about to collapse. Please lead the army to attack, Commander-in-Chief, to win military honors.

How could Li Fuming believe it? He shouted: "How dare you deceive me?! You two, tell the truth!"

Even after typing it down, the information obtained remains unchanged.

Li Fuming was doubtful, but finally the Tatar head could not be faked. After careful inspection, it was clear that it was the real Tatar head, not the head of a Tatar Han soldier. Each of these ten scouts brought back five or six heads, which equaled fifty or sixty heads.

With a team of scouts, it was impossible to kill fifty or sixty real Tatars without any damage. Not to mention a team of scouts, even if all 3,000 troops from his Tashan Fort came out, they might not be able to kill fifty or sixty real Tatars.

I roughly believed it in my heart.

But there are still doubts.

He called a servant leader and ordered him to take people to see it immediately.

The head servant didn't believe it, but he took fifty horses out of the city and hurried slowly along the way. It took another quarter of an hour to reach the end of the pass. Then he cautiously dismounted, hid his horse, climbed up the hill, and when he looked over, he saw a river of blood flowing from the mouth of the pass.

Then, the shouts of killing that were blocked by the mountain pass suddenly filled my ears.

The leader of the servants was surprised and hurriedly moved over. When he reached the other end, he saw the Tatar army mingled in the wilderness in the distance!

There were corpses everywhere, and horses that had lost their owners everywhere.

There was a vague figure of a horseman, his sword was as bright as a mountain, he was galloping around, killing the Tatars like wolves and dolphins!

It was mixed with the sound of bows and arrows shooting, and the sound of muskets like popping beans.

The rain of arrows buzzed, and only a Tatar cavalry fell. After the musket blast, the Tatar cavalry fell. The man rode out, his sword swung in a circle, and he came out from the rain of arrows and bullets. He was like a demon coming out of hell, unstoppable!

The leader of the servants took a deep breath: "There is such a fierce general?!"

He calmed down and shouted: "Quick, you guys go back and tell the commander-in-chief to send troops quickly!"

At this time in the Ming Dynasty, the real elite soldiers were all from the generals' servants. The regular army has become incredibly corrupted. This servant leader also fought many battles with Li Fuming and knew many things on the battlefield.

With just one glance, one can roughly estimate the number of Tatar corpses that fell in the wilderness - more than two thousand!

The entire Tatar army, less than 10,000 people in total, had been killed by 20 to 30% by that powerful general!

No matter whether the Tatars were shooting arrows, charging cavalry, or even firing muskets, they were completely helpless against the powerful general. If another army suddenly comes out at this time, the Tatars will definitely collapse!

The servant obeyed the order and hurriedly went down the mountain and rushed to Tashan Fort.

At this time, on the battlefield, Zhao Yu killed one man, one horse and one sword with great joy!

"Refreshing! Refreshing!"

Zhao Yu shouted loudly, his face flushed, and his spirit was lifted to the extreme!

This time, with his own strength, he defeated an army of nearly 10,000 people. The killing was even more enjoyable than the more than 1,000 cavalrymen yesterday!

There are arrows shooting and muskets blasting, like a piece of murderous music, so wonderful!

Zhao Yu's long sword was really impenetrable. No matter whether he was shooting arrows or blasting muskets, he would stop him ninety-nine times. The remaining points were beaten on him, and only the short coat was beaten into a sieve, but not even the oily skin was broken.

The more he killed, the more angry he felt. During the transfer of qi and blood, his strength was completely complete. Apart from his stomach growling, he was probably a little hungry, and there was no sign of exhaustion at all.

There was only one man riding, and earlier, the Tatars were still fighting bravely. When thousands of people died, morale dropped drastically. I was encouraged again, just like yesterday, I just wanted to wait until Zhao Yu was exhausted.

After a thousand more people died and Zhao Yu was still alive and well, the Tatars finally became frightened!

At this moment, there were dozens of booms and explosions.

Zhao Yu was slightly startled and quickly raised his head, only to see an iron ball slightly larger than his fist flying towards his face! In Zhao Yu's eyes, the iron ball created a stream of sparks in the air, and instantly flew dozens of feet away to Zhao Yu!

And all the other cannonballs around him passed by.

Only this one was probably a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse, and it happened to hit Zhao Yu's face!

Zhao Yu's expression suddenly became solemn.

He had long heard from his master about the power of firearms, especially cannons. One shot hit, the men, horses, and equipment were shattered, and they even had to break out a bloody path when they jumped up!

It was clear that the collision of the shells also gave Zhao Yu some sense of crisis.

But not intensely!

Zhao Yu knew what he was doing, but he pulled out the long knife and drew a dozen round lights in an instant. He used his skillful energy, his arm shook slightly, his blood rushed, the long knife intercepted the cannonball, bent it backwards, and then fiercely With a flick of the ground, the cannonball returned the same way!

"It's not that powerful!"

Zhao Yu took a breath and drove away all the tension in his heart: "Master is also making alarmist claims. The man's horse and his equipment will be shattered. The impact of this cannonball only had a force of about three hundred jun, which is completely within the range of my ability to withstand it."

"But if you don't block it and let it hit you, I'm afraid you will be injured..."

As his thoughts turned, Zhao Yu fixed his eyes on the artillery formation and ran away.

Zhao Yu thought that this cannonball was nothing more than that, but it shocked a Tatar and Li Fuming's servants to the point where they didn't know why they came! How incredible is it that someone can use his flesh and blood to intercept a cannonball and then fire it back? !

Too appalling!
