Chapter 221 The head of Xiang Guan is here
"Here!" Lu An, Lu Ding agreed and wanted to leave with his guardian Xiang Guan.
However, Xiang Guan, Lu An and Lu Ding had just turned their horses and suddenly found hundreds of cavalry coming out behind them. Just looking at the armor on these cavalry, you will know that they are all Xiang Zhuang's troops. What made Xiang Guan despair was that the mounts under these cavalry were almost all tall and headed horses with extremely divine horses!
Lu Yuan suddenly felt miserable, it seemed that he could not escape.[]
Xiang Guan was furious and immediately drew his sword and rushed forward. Lu An and Lu Ding also roared, and with dozens of personal cavalry, waving their long swords and urging their horses to rush forward.
#############
Seeing dozens of cavalry swarming across from him, a cold murderous intent suddenly erupted into the corner of Ge Sheng's mouth.
Amid the harsh metal friction, Ge Sheng slowly drew out a heavy horizontal knife. The sharp blade reflected a dazzling cold light under the scorching sun in the sky, which made people dare not look at it.
Almost at the same time, hundreds of cavalry behind Ge Sheng also carried out ring swords.
Ge Sheng slowly drew out his horizontal knife, slowly lifted it up in the air, and said sternly: "The veteran... is ahead!"
In an instant, nearly a hundred cavalry veterans who had fought through many battles urged their horses to move forward, and slowly unfolded after the horses, forming a cavalry formation with fifty cavalry in front and back, each with fifty cavalry. The remaining two hundred cavalry recruits who had just been recruiting were neighing for a long time, but they were unable to form a decent team after a long time.
But Ge Sheng ignored these new recruits at all. He didn't expect them to kill the enemy and make achievements. Today he brought them here just to open their eyes and see the veteran's soldiers' military strength!
"Great China!" Ge Sheng raised his sword and howled, and at the same time he held his long legs hard. The mount under his crotch suddenly raised his head and hissed sadly, shook his four hooves and slowly moved forward.
"The ceremony collapsed and the music was broken!" Nearly a hundred veterans responded by riding the mountain, and they also urged the war horses to follow Ge Shengma and slowly moved forward.
"Reorganize the rivers and mountains!" Ge Sheng once again drew his sword and howled. Almost at the same time, the war horse under his crotch suddenly began to accelerate.
"Only I am the Great Chu!" Nearly a hundred veterans shouted like thunder, and they also activated their war horses to start the final sprint. In an instant, nearly a hundred elite cavalry formed a hurricane wave, rolling forward with an unstoppable momentum. The horses were crowded with iron hooves and swelling. The charge of less than a hundred cavalry was faintly filled with the sound of thousands of troops and thousands of horses.
In this situation, more than 200 personal soldiers who followed the veterans and horses to charge randomly were even more excited, especially Ge Sheng's four personal soldiers, Qingsie, Iron Ox, Big Head and Skinny Monkey. In their excitement, they even completely forgot their nervousness and fear. At this moment, they just wanted to follow Ge Sheng and Go Ma to charge into battle and kill the enemy and make achievements.
#############
Hundreds of cavalry swarmed in like waves, and Xiang Guan's pupils suddenly contracted sharply.
I had long heard that Xiangzhuang's cavalry was unstoppable, and even the Huns in Mobei were not their opponents. Xiang Guan didn't believe it at first, thinking that Xiang Zhuang was just a false threat and was just a gold gild on his own face. However, at this moment, Xiang Guan believed it. At least the nearly a hundred cavalry in front of him were no less powerful than the hundreds of personal cavalry of the former kings.
At this critical moment, Xiang Guan couldn't even retreat. Now he could only rush forward in order to break a bloody road and escape from Shengtian. Although there were still three thousand elite soldiers behind him, unfortunately, there were at least nearly a thousand cavalry between the three thousand elite soldiers and him. If he turned around and fought, he could only die faster.
"Kill them all!" Xiang Guan raised his sword hard and looked up at the sky for a long time.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Lu An, Lu Ding and dozens of personal cavalry also roared.
Lu Yuan also lifted a double-edged sword and began to charge after Xiang Guanma. The scholars of this era were not Confucian scholars in later generations. Most Confucian scholars in later generations were inseparable from grains and were not diligent in six bodies. They were known to have no power to tie a chicken. However, the scholars of this era learned from others' strengths, and most of them were good at literature and martial arts. Many people were even skilled in bows and horses, able to fight on horseback and dismounted horses.
#############
The iron hooves are churning and dust is flying.
Amid the suffocating sound of iron hooves, nearly a hundred veterans had collided head-on with dozens of her personal horsemen.
"Go to die!" Xiang Guan shouted loudly, and the double-edged heavy sword in his hand instantly drew a blurry trajectory in the air, slashing across the neck of Ge Sheng.
Ge Sheng looked like iron, and he raised his sword and slashed hard.
In an instant, Ge Sheng's horizontal sword and Xiang Guan's double-edged heavy sword had intersected fiercely in the air. With a clanging explosion, the double-edged heavy sword in Xiang Guan's hand had been broken into two pieces. Ge Sheng's horizontal sword was cast by fine iron, and was forged hundreds or thousands of times by the blacksmith day and night. How could his sharpness be comparable to Xiang Guan's double-edged sword?
Ge Sheng cut off Xiang Guan's heavy sword with one sword and wiped it from Xiang Guan's right rib.
Xiang Guan's body, which was riding on the horse's back, was shocked. He rushed out for dozens of steps before slowly slamming the horse. Then he looked down at his right rib, and his face showed an incredible look. The next moment, a red blood line suddenly splashed on Xiang Guan's right rib, and then it cracked like a fish's mouth.
"Uh..." Xiang Guan then began to scream in a shrill voice.
However, soon, the new recruits of the four horses had already urged the horse to kill him. One of the recruits slanted with just a sword and cut Xiang Guan's head down. Xiang Guan's shrill scream suddenly stopped. Ge Sheng urged the horse to turn around. He happened to see this scene. The person who cut Xiang Guan's head down was the Qingpi who had just collected his personal soldier.
When he looked around again, Ge Sheng found that Xiang Guan's dozens of his personal cavalry had been killed.
Only a few of the nearly 100-year-old soldiers suffered minor injuries. This result is reasonable. Xiang Guan’s dozens of personal cavalry are certainly the ones in a hundred, but this short battle is a horse battle rather than a infantry battle. Nearly a hundred-year-old soldiers not only practiced riding skills in Jiuyuan, but also practiced riding skills in Liyang for more than half a year, and the mounts under their crotch are not comparable to those of dozens of personal cavalry in Xiang Guan.
"Qingpi, you have made a contribution!" Ge Sheng turned over and got off the horse and picked up Xiang Guan's head, then jumped up the horse on his body, then turned his head and galloped towards the mountain pass.
#############
At Yamaguchi, fierce battles are in full swing.
The three thousand elite soldiers of Xiang Guan lined up in a dense formation of infantry, with spearmen in front, swords and shields protecting their wings and behind them, and archers shooting in the middle, orderly, like a hideous hedgehog with iron armor, rolling towards the mountain pass. Although its progress was slow, it was as unstoppable as a rock.
Gao Chu's other 400 cavalrymen galloped back and forth outside the mountain pass, avoiding the archery of Xiang Guan's personal soldiers, while pulling bows and shooting arrows on the horse's back, hitting back at the opponent. However, Gao Chu's cavalry was at a significant disadvantage in number. If it weren't for the fast horse, he would have been shot to the ground by Xiang Guan's personal soldiers.
But even so, Gao Chu's more than 400 cavalry were already in a difficult position and could not stand it. From time to time, veterans would scream and fall from their horses. After all, these cavalry were wearing thin leather armor, while Xiang Guan's personal archers were all elite veterans who had been through many battles, and their archers were extremely capable of archery.
Ge Sheng had just rushed into the mountain pass and ran into Gao Chu head-on.
Gao Chu stopped the horse and stopped rushing, shouting loudly, "Ge Sheng, have you succeeded?"
"Report to the general, you succeed!" Ge Sheng responded with a loud promise, held Xiang Guan's head up again and said, "General, Xiang Guan's head is here!"
"Okay!" Gao Chu immediately stepped forward, grabbed the head of Xiangguan from Ge Sheng, and then urged the horse to rush into the mountain pass.
When Gao Chu rode his horse into the mountain pass, Xiang Guan's three thousand personal troops had already advanced to the front of the four hundred spirit cavalry, and the four hundred spirit cavalry had already suffered nearly a hundred casualties. Looking at the veteran lying in a pool of blood, Gao Chu was bleeding in his heart. However, at this moment, he didn't care about these injured veterans for the time being. He raised Xiang Guan's head and shouted: "Xiang Guan's head is here!"
Gao Chu's voice was like a loud thunder, which immediately alarmed Xiang Guan's personal army rushing forward.
Especially the hundreds of spear soldiers in the dozen rows in front of them, they could see clearly the head in Gao Chu's hand. Isn't it Xiang Guan's head? In an instant, the hundreds of spear soldiers in front stopped moving forward one after another. Although the elite soldiers behind did not know what was happening ahead, their good military discipline soon stopped, and the entire formation was not at all confusing!
Gao Chu couldn't help but secretly praise her. Although Xiang Guan is a waste, these veterans are all good soldiers!
In an instant, the battlefield that was originally boiling and turning into death fell into a silence. Gao Chu took a deep breath and shouted again: "Xiang Guan is dead, do you want to die with him?"
Gao Chu's roar clearly reached the ears of every veteran.
In an instant, Xiang Guan’s three thousand personal soldiers became turbulent. Some were excited, some were shocked, some were depressed and desperate, but more were looking at each other and falling into confusion. For a long time, these personal soldiers took Xiang Guan’s will as their will. Now that Xiang Guan died, they were like lost lambs, completely losing their sense of direction.
"I'll listen to it all." Gao Chu shouted again, "You are the Chu army, the soldiers of the Great Chu State, not Xiang Guan's private soldiers, nor are they the lackeys he raised! Xiang Guan's child did not know the general and ignored the overall situation. He dared to disobey the last order of the previous king. He died for the sake of death. Do you also follow Xiang Guan in the same way to the darkness?"
Most of the personal soldiers looked around in panic and were at a loss. It is true that they were Xiang Guan's personal soldiers, and they were always instilled with the idea of loyalty to Xiang Guan. But they were first Chu soldiers, and then Xiang Guan's personal soldiers. Moreover, they were humans, not machines. Now Xiang Guan is dead, is it really necessary to die with him?
"Don't listen to him, fight with them!"
"Yes, kill them all and avenge the general!"
"Fight, fight with them, kill!"
However, hundreds of personal soldiers came out and rushed towards Gao Chu with loud roars.
Chapter completed!
