Chapter 155: I don't need my master to kill you
The Mongolian cavalryman was displeased when he saw the Korean cavalryman biting his tongue to commit suicide. He snorted coldly, "What a waste!" and then chopped off his head with a knife.
Without his warhorse, he switched to riding the warhorse of the Chao State cavalry to continue looking for his next target.
Unlike the ferocious Mongolian cavalry, the Qin cavalry seemed to be inherently arrogant and only cared about winning with one move against the Chao cavalry.
The two armies charged back and forth, and whoever was inferior in martial arts would become a corpse on the ground, and then be trampled into a pool of meat by herds of horses' hooves.
The Korean cavalry thought that this would be a victory for their side, and a complete victory, because the opponent had no armor to protect them like they did, and they would be killed on the spot with just a single shot!
But after several rounds of fighting, the Chao cavalry discovered to their horror that their attack speed was far inferior to that of their opponents.
Just as they were about to raise their hands to attack, the enemy had already swung their spears at them. If they were lucky, they could rely on their armor to avoid the fatal blow.
Those who were unlucky would have their armor and bodies pierced through, and then be knocked off their horses. Even if they survived, they would be trampled to death by other running war horses.
After losing most of the cavalry, the cavalry commander ordered part of the troops to stop charging and use bows and arrows to kill the enemy instead.
The Qin cavalry quickly killed the enemy. Suddenly, a sound of breaking through the air came from behind. It turned out that the Chao cavalry shot the arrows in their hands.
These Qin cavalrymen kicked their horses' bellies calmly, and the agile Western Region horses carried them quickly to avoid the incoming arrows.
At this time, the advantage of lightweight was reflected. The Qin cavalry only had a thin layer of armor on their bodies, and their horses had no other means of protection except for the iron hooves on their four hooves.
Therefore, they were very light, and with the boosts given by the three generals at the same time, their speed made them look like a group of ghosts shuttling across the ground in the eyes of the Chao cavalry.
Because the arrows couldn't hit them at all! On the contrary, these Qin cavalrymen cleverly approached the rest of the Chao cavalrymen while dodging the arrows, and then quickly stabbed them with their spears to kill them.
"Damn it! What a ghost! How can they be so fast?" The cavalry commander was so anxious that he was sweating all over.
He immediately came up with a plan, and shouted to the cavalrymen who had transformed into archers, "Cross-shoot! Cross-shoot! Shoot from all angles! Kill them hard!"
The Chao cavalry, having received the battle plan, immediately took arrows and shot, and this time the killing effect was very obvious.
Under the crossfire, the Qin cavalry began to die. The advantage of being lightweight is that it gives them a flexible body shape, but it also brings the possibility of fatal death.
Once you are hit by an arrow, your body will be pierced by the arrow. Unless you are lucky enough not to be hit in vital parts and can still keep your body stable on the horse's back, otherwise you will die if you fall off the horse.
The cavalry commander of the Chao State saw that his method of fighting was successful and couldn't help but clench his fist and shout: "Good shot! Keep shooting! Destroy them all!"
Just as he was shouting loudly, a panicked shout suddenly rang in his ears.
"Run, General! Run!"
The cavalry commander turned around suddenly and saw a figure approaching him. The man had a red face and a very long beard, and in his hand was a Qinglong sword as tall as a man.
Guan Yu roared and swung out his Green Dragon Crescent Blade!
The cavalry commander of the Chao State was beheaded, and his death was seen by most of the Chao State cavalry on the field.
Guan Yu was brandishing his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and a group of Mongolian cavalry surged behind him. These Mongolian cavalry were the ones who wiped out the 30,000 cavalrymen who were responsible for blocking the pursuing Chao army.
After brutally killing the archers, they continued to pursue them, and soon caught up with the two groups that were fighting.
Bai Qi was very confident in the other Mongolian cavalry because he allocated 20,000 Mongolian cavalry to assist the Qin cavalry.
In his opinion, the Qin cavalry led by Huo Qubing were too merciful, which was really unlike the style of their Qin soldiers.
With the addition of 30,000 Mongolian cavalry, Ying Xuanze's army, which already had an advantage, crushed the remaining Chao cavalry.
The commander of Chao State heard screams all around him before he even swung his axe a few times. He turned around in surprise and then his eyes suddenly narrowed.
Those who fell were all his subordinates, and those who screamed were the ones who were slaughtered by the Mongolian cavalry.
He hadn't even dealt with the enemy in front of him, so how come his army was defeated so quickly?
Thinking of this, the commander's heart tightened, and he quickly chopped out two blows with the axe to force his opponent to defend.
But in fact, this was just a feint. After his plan succeeded, he immediately rode away on his horse.
When he was escaping, he did not forget to call on a few subordinates who were close to him to flee with him. He always had to keep some people around him to act as bait, otherwise how could he escape from here successfully on his own?
He knew that the army could not retreat, but he could not die. A cavalry army of tens of thousands of people suddenly arrived in the Yandong area. This was extremely important information for their main army.
He had to bring this information back to the base camp alive, and then make a request to the commander-in-chief to bring the army back to kill this group of Hu cavalry!
As long as these tens of thousands of cavalrymen are killed, there will be no other force in Yandong that can stop their expansion into the country.
After the army is reorganized and logistical supplies are ready, they will be able to launch an attack on Guling Pass. As long as they take this pass, the capital of Daying will be within their grasp!
Thinking of this, the commander could actually laugh out loud while fleeing, but soon he saw a figure blocking his way in front of him.
This man was tall and had a gloomy face. At first glance, he looked middle-aged. He immediately thought that he might be the commander of the Hu cavalry behind him.
But why would a commander of an army have no guards around him? Could it be just a certain general?
He took a deep breath and shouted at the figure: "Are you their commander?"
The commander's voice was loud, and its content reached the man's ears.
The man raised his head and narrowed his eyes slightly. He said loudly: "I am not the commander-in-chief, and there is no need for my master to take action against you."
"How arrogant!" The commander of the Chao State laughed disdainfully. He continued, "I see that it is not easy for you to be promoted and you are alone. As long as you are willing to let me go, I will pretend that I have never met you."
"Otherwise, you can't defeat all of us by yourself. I can kill you and then continue to escape from here."
"I see that you are close to my age. It is not easy for us to reach this position. Why would you sacrifice your life for me?"
"My army has a total of 50,000 soldiers. If you destroy them, you can ask your master for reward. So, sir..."
"What a noise!" That person suddenly interrupted the commander-in-chief of the Chao Kingdom.
"Your fifty thousand troops must stay here today, and you...are no exception."
The interrupted commander of the Chao State glared at him, and angrily shouted, "Good boy! Since you are determined to die, I will send you to death!"
After saying that, he called on several of his men to rush forward, while he followed behind, looking for an opportunity to give the man a fatal blow!
Several Chao cavalrymen came forward and surrounded Bai Qi. One of them shouted at Bai Qi, "Sir, please tell me your name!"
The man laughed coldly and said, "A bunch of minions are not enough for me to reveal their names. It is enough for you to just know that you were killed by a fierce general."
Several Chaoguo cavalrymen laughed when they heard this: "How arrogant! Even if you are a fierce general, can you really deal with several of us at the same time?"
"Do you think we are children? Come on! Kill this guy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several Chao cavalrymen stepped forward and launched an attack at the same time. The man waved the two short spears in his hands and blocked all attacks from all directions.
Several cavalrymen were startled one after another, and the man seized the opportunity to kick the horse's belly, and the horse under his crotch quickly carried him straight to a Chao cavalryman.
The cavalryman was knocked off his horse by the man's halberd before he could react. By the time the others reacted, the man had already charged back.
His warhorse hit the horse of a Chao cavalryman from the side, and the horse fell backwards, carrying the cavalryman on its back to the ground.
Then he ignored the fallen cavalryman and charged towards the other Chao cavalry with double halberds in his hands.
"This guy is so fast! Don't underestimate the enemy!" A Chao cavalryman said to his companions, but as soon as he finished speaking, an iron halberd pierced his throat.
His companions cried out in fear, and the next second a figure grabbed the handle of the short spear and pulled it out of the throat of the Chao cavalryman.
Then he swung his halberd with his backhand, and the blade of the iron halberd instantly cut the throat of the Chao cavalryman. The cavalryman fell off his horse, covering his bleeding throat.
The Chaotian cavalryman who had fallen to the ground was just about to get on his horse. During this time, he looked up at his companions and was horrified to see that they were all dead bodies on the ground.
"How could it be? How could it be..." Before he could finish his words, an iron halberd flew over and hit him in the face. The next second, a horse neighed, and a hand grabbed the iron halberd and pulled it out.
Drops of blood from the halberd blade dripped onto the ground, and everything that had just happened was seen by the commander-in-chief of the Chao Kingdom.
At this moment, his whole body was weak. If he had not held the reins tightly with his hands, he would probably have fallen off the horse out of fright.
He originally wanted to find the right opportunity to launch a sneak attack and deal a fatal blow to the enemy, but the man was so fast that his men were killed before he had a chance to find them.
Although his men were not top-notch martial artists, their martial arts were not bad at all as they could become members of the Chao State Cavalry.
However, these people not only failed to kill the enemy when they advanced together, they were quickly defeated by their opponents, and most of them were even killed within one round.
If someone with this level of martial arts also had military talent, he would at least be a big figure in their country commanding an army of 200,000.
However, this kind of person is not the commander of this cavalry army of tens of thousands? How powerful must their commander be to be able to control such a talented general!
"You, you, you! Who are you? And which general in Daying are you a subordinate of?" he shouted hysterically.
"Well, since you are a dying man, just tell me your name."
"I am Bai Qi!" Bai Qi said with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"As for my master, you don't need to know, and you don't deserve to know! Now, it's time to send you on your way!"
After saying that, Bai Qi kicked the horse's belly, and the warhorse under his crotch once again carried him towards the Chao commander at a rapid speed.
"Don't look down on me! I've never heard of a great man named Bai Qi in Daying. I guess your master isn't a famous commander either."
"Don't think you can act recklessly just because you killed a few of my men! I'm going to kill you!"
"Remember my name! Wang Xiangen! I am one of the most favored generals of General Zhong Enhe of the Chao State!"
"It's your blessing to die in my hands! At least you didn't die at the hands of some unknown person!"
Bai Qi sneered and said, "Since you have never heard of my name, then dying at the hands of an unknown person would be a great shame, wouldn't it?"
"You noisy thing, if you have the ability, come and take my head, why are you yelling with your mouth?"
"Good boy! If you want to die so badly, I'll send you to see the King of Hell right now!"
Wang Xiangen rode forward with an axe in hand, and Bai Qi waited calmly for his opponent to arrive. The former chopped with an axe, but Bai Qi blocked it with a cross block.
Then Bai Qi shouted loudly, and he used both hands to use his double halberds to knock away Wang Xiangen's axe, and then stabbed straight into the latter's chest.
Wang Xiangen took a deep breath, grabbed the reins and pulled hard. The horse under him quickly raised its hooves and turned to the side, fortunately avoiding the thorn.
Bai Qi quickly turned the short halberd to the side upon seeing this, and the short blade extended from the halberd and cut through Wang Xiangen's armor, bringing down a dozen pieces of armor.
Wang Xiangen breathed a sigh of relief, then held the axe and chopped at the arm that Bai Qi was about to retract. Bai Qi had no choice but to drop the iron halberd to get rid of the restraint of the weight and quickly pulled his hand back.
Wang Xiangen, who had just struck the air with one move, looked dissatisfied: "Tsk, you really are willing to give up your weapon!"
However, Bai Qi's horse took advantage of this opportunity to rush forward and hit the side of Wang Xiangen's horse. Wang Xiangen grabbed the reins in horror but still fell to the ground with the horse.
"Wait! Wait for me to get on the horse! Wait for me to get on the horse!" Wang Xiangen knew very well what would happen if he fell to the ground. At the moment, he didn't care about his face. He just asked Bai Qi to give him a chance for a fair fight.
"You don't have to get on the horse. I can fight you on the ground." Bai Qi's voice entered Wang Xiangen's ears.
Wang Xiangen couldn't believe what he heard, but when he and his horse stood up at the same time, he noticed that Bai Qi had dismounted.
"I didn't expect that the people of Daying are so trustworthy?" Wang Xiangen gave up mounting his horse. Since Bai Qi gave him this opportunity, he would fight fairly!
Their martial arts skills on horseback were only average, but now that they were on land, they had the upper hand.
Haha, he dared to fight with the Chao people on land. It seems that this middle-aged general named Bai Qi is very confident in his martial arts!
Bai Qi picked up the short halberd on the ground. He stood in a horse stance and held two iron halberds horizontally. After taking a deep breath, he suddenly took a quick step forward and ran straight towards Wang Xiangen!
Wang Xiangen was shocked by Bai Qi's speed. He quickly gripped the axe and kept an eye on Bai Qi's figure.
When Bai Qi was about to get close, he made a jumping motion. Wang Xiangen caught it and immediately prepared to block with an axe in hand.
But who knew that Bai Qi actually made a fake move. He moved his body and launched an attack from the other side!
And at this moment, the whole sky became completely dark!
