Yin Changgeng shook his head and said, "Northern Liang is in a dilemma. If we don't completely fall out with them, we won't be able to capture Yan Tongshu and the others with an army of at least six hundred riders and a few martial experts protecting them."
Gao Shilian said unhappily, "To be able to make Beiliang suffer a setback once, won't they be treated as heroes when they return to the capital?"
Yin Changgeng smiled. "Let's go, we've seen the show. You guys really wasted that pot of Spring God Lake Tea. "
At this time.
The streets of the small town rumbled like thunder. Even Zhao Chunyuan felt a suffocating pressure.
When a group of black-armored cavalry charged into the small town, there were constantly archers dismounting from their horses and climbing onto the roofs to occupy advantageous terrain.
In this small town, there were no more than four to five hundred soldiers on the streets and archers on the roofs, but they formed a black cloud that could destroy a city!
The leading general took the lead, urging his horse to gallop to the side of the Jin Cavalry Commandant Fan Xiangda. Sitting high on the back of the Liangzhou horse, he angrily rebuked with a gloomy face, "Surnamed Fan! Are you sunbathing here?! "
Fan Xiangda didn't know what to do. He was about to speak when the Horned Eagle Captain Luo Hongcai scolded, "Bastard, how can there be a Beiliang army that doesn't draw their sword when facing an enemy! If the prince hears this and knows that I raised a nest of bear soldiers, how can I still be a captain?! "
Luo Hongcai looked around and said in a low voice, "Unrelated people, leave the streets! You will not be treated as an enemy if you're late! "
This Lieutenant Luo was probably really angry at that Fan Xiangda, but he was his trusted aide after all, so he left some face for the Commandant of the Brocade Cavalry. He turned his head slightly and spat before suddenly raising his arm and saying in a clear voice, "Patrolling Brocade Cavalry, retreat! Hippogryph Cavalry, get into formation! Draw your swords! "
Luo Hongcai stared darkly at the group of people and grinned out of habit. His teeth were especially white and frightening. "If anyone escapes without reason, the archers will kill them on the spot."
The streets of the small town weren't wide. Logically speaking, it wasn't suitable for cavalry to gallop through. However, it wasn't hard for a cavalry to charge through. It wasn't like they were going to collide with those orderly infantry formations, so they could do whatever they wanted.
The Horned Eagle Captain Luo Hongcai had around three thousand soldiers under his command. He only had five hundred cavalry. He had always been very careful. He begged and asked his superiors for more than eight hundred 'B-grade' warhorses from the Beiliang Horse Farm. In the local army, other than the first class captains who guarded the dangerous passes, this was already a shocking achievement. For the captains of Youzhou and Lingzhou, where most of the soldiers were infantrymen, to have two hundred B-grade warhorses was already a miracle. Of course, the reason why Luo Hongcai was so capable was because the King of Beiliang had personally led ten thousand Youzhou cavalry from Ji Bei to Hulu's Mouth. Thanks to the prince, the Beiliang Horse Farm, which usually didn't pay much attention to the garrisoned troops in Liangzhou, had finally changed their view of the garrisoned troops in Youzhou. Within the scope of their responsibility, they would give priority to warhorses to Youzhou, which was never known for its cavalry. As for the captains of Lingzhou, they could forget about it. Who asked Youzhou to have a Luan Dao who fought side by side with the prince? Do you have one in Lingzhou?
Yan Tongshu was probably so scared that his legs had turned to jelly. His face was pale, and his lips were trembling. Even though the four experts who had quite a reputation in Liyang Lake walked out and stood in front of them to protect them, this eldest son of the Yan family still couldn't help but tremble. This time, he was finally not as flirtatious as before.
The son of the County Chief of Hezhou, Liu Chengfeng, had a long face. He even had the thought of dying. 'I just want to marry an assistant minister's daughter as my wife to bring honor to my ancestors. How can you Beiliang kill people just like that?'
Li Zhangliang, who had experienced the toughness of the battlefield, was probably the calmest one among them. He was sizing up all the details of this regular army in Beiliang.
The two local playboys of Beiliang who had joined the group to run errands for the rich and powerful in the capital almost turned around at the same time, wanting to escape into the inn. However, the middle-aged man who was acting as a guard instructor for the Li family suddenly reached out his hands and pulled the two back. Then, two arrows flew through the air. If he didn't pull them back from the gates of hell, then the two pitiful creatures would have been nailed to the back by the arrows. If they were lucky enough to survive, they would be heavily injured.
Wang Yuanran finally couldn't hold back and said angrily, "You Beiliang really dare to kill people on the street for no reason?!"
The Hippohawk captain, Luo Hongcai, didn't waste his breath on him and waved his hand.
The cavalry started to charge.
An old expert who was the stabilizing force behind the scenes in the Yan family attacked first. The old man was a true Second Grade Master. If it wasn't for the fact that he suffered a fatal injury on the battlefield when he was middle-aged and coughed non-stop every time it rained and even breathing was painful, the old man might have already been a First Grade King Kong or even a Mysterious Finger Realm expert. After the old man was saved by Yan Zhenchun from the battlefield, he stayed in the Yan family to repay his kindness. In the capital, he had the nickname of 'Half Qi River Crossing'. It was said that although the old man had difficulty breathing when he was sick, when he was facing an enemy, his earth energy was extremely dense and he was also very skilled in martial arts.
The old man faced a Hippohawk Cavalry that charged at him, and he was just about to smash the warhorse's head with his palm when a wisp of a strange figure suddenly flashed out from the side. The figure's hands pushed lightly on his chest, and it actually pushed him back to where he stood on the spot. Just as the old man exhaled, he had no choice but to take another breath. The slightly wrinkled clothes on his chest trembled and returned to normal. He wasn't the only one. The other three experts from his camp all tried to block the rider's path, but they were all blocked by someone else. Even though the eight of them clashed four times in the blink of an eye, each with their own advantages and disadvantages, this gap allowed the Horned Eagle rider to reach Yan Tongshu, who was standing at the outermost edge. When the rider brushed past Yan Tongshu, the Northern Cold Saber that didn't seem to be swinging left a large wound on the shoulder of the stunned Yan Family's Eldest Young Master. Fortunately, Li Zhangliang pulled Yan Tongshu back. Otherwise, the wound would have been on Yan Tongshu's neck.
After the first rider, there were still hundreds of riders coming from behind.
Li Zhangliang, who didn't want to get too deeply involved, had no choice but to fight personally. He took two steps forward, bent his back and twisted his head to dodge the blade on the back of the horse. Then, he slammed his shoulder into the side of the warhorse, sending both the rider and the horse flying. However, the third rider didn't give Li Zhangliang any chance to catch his breath. Li Zhangliang took a series of quick steps, turned around, and grabbed the rider's arm that was holding the blade. Li Zhangliang roared angrily and dragged the rider off the horse, throwing him towards the fourth rider. The latter didn't even put away his blade. Instead, he leaned his body to the right and dodged it. Then, he still managed to stab Li Zhangliang with his blade.
Gao Shilian, who was following the crowd back to the inn, saw this scene. Although he wasn't part of the situation, he was still very worried. He said softly to Yin Changgeng, "Are we really going to leave like this? From the looks of it, this Beiliang Cavalry really knows how to kill. "
Yin Changgeng hesitated and finally stopped. He looked at Li Zhangliang and the others in the distance, who were already in danger. His expression was heavy.
The group stopped under the eaves. Gao Shiqing said angrily, "These Beiliang people are too much. How can they kill people on the street in front of so many people? Is there any justice in this world? Wang Yuanran is the son of an Administrator. He didn't do anything heartless. How can the Beiliang Cavalry just kill him like that? "
Yin Changgeng didn't say anything. He knew that it was probably because of the sensitive identities of Wang Yuanran and the others that the Beiliang didn't hesitate to go to war.
Under certain rules, the imperial court made things difficult for the Beiliang. The Beiliang could endure it, and had endured it for 20 years.
However, the Beiliang couldn't be humiliated.
The corner of Yin Changgeng's mouth lifted slightly. He walked out of the eaves and said softly to the window on the second floor of the inn, "Thank you, Mr. Qi."
The next moment.
The streets of Escape Summer Town were filled with Sword Qi.
The coldness of the Sword Qi instantly made the name Escape Summer Town more appropriate.
However, before Gao Shiqing, Zhao Wenwei, and the others could sincerely sigh at Qi Jiaje's profound swordsmanship and magnificent Sword Qi, they suddenly felt a bone-piercing coldness come and go in a hurry. It was gone just like that!
Then, without them noticing, a young man with a book in his hand was standing next to them. It was as if he had just been reading at home and didn't have time to relax before coming out to join in the fun.
There was only a slight breeze on the streets of Escape Summer Town. It wasn't enough to flip the pages of the book. However, Zhao Chunyuan and Gao Shiqing, who were more observant, saw that the young man had just turned a page of the book.
