The bodies of Li Yingxing and the entire patrol army were as tense as bowstrings.
Although he did not know the identity of Lin Xi, who was carrying a giant bow dyed green, Lin Xi was right. It was not difficult for Li Yingxing to judge what to do now.
The chaotic sounds of Da Mang's army coming from the dark night allowed him and the entire patrol army to be sure that the number of the cavalry army was at least twice that of their patrol army, and they knew even better that in this area
It is impossible for the Yun Qin cavalry to be among them.
So what Lin Xi said was true, it was a large cavalry army ambushing there.
"Master Li!"
Logically speaking, at this time, the entire army should be waiting for Li Yingxing's order, and absolutely no one should speak out. However, a deputy general behind Li Yingxing could not help but grit his teeth and speak out.
The lieutenant just glanced at Li Yingxing and said nothing more. However, Li Yingxing knew very well what the lieutenant was thinking.
Just from the roar of those wild war horses spitting out their wooden chews and the low sound of the wind that could only be caused by the rapid running of a large number of war horses, anyone here could be sure that Lin Xi's figure had been exposed.
Moreover, all of them knew that Lin Xi was deliberately exposed because of them, just to create some time for their breakthrough.
However, for such a single practitioner to face such a large number of cavalry, the danger is extremely high. As the rescued party, do they really ignore this person and just leave like this?
"This is war. I can't let our army be completely destroyed. I can only believe in his ability and believe that he can leave safely."
Li Yingxing took a deep breath and bowed deeply to where Lin Xi was.
"sudden!"
Behind him, many Yunqin sergeants were like him, with blood rushing to their faces. The moment they saluted in the direction of Lin Xi, a very stern and decisive military order came from Li Yingxing's mouth. Then, Li Yingxing was like a
Like a cheetah, it first rushed out in the direction Lin Xi pointed just now.
All the Yunqin sergeants behind him followed like a torrent.
…
The sound of dense arrows tearing through the air tore through the night sky.
Within a few breaths while most of the Damang cavalry were frantically pursuing Lin Xi, some of the military officers also recovered their senses. The entire 1,500-strong Damang cavalry army was divided into two groups, one group was close to
Seven hundred people continued to pursue Lin Xi frantically, and all the other cavalry troops began to swoop madly in the direction of the Yunqin Patrol Army, which must have discovered them.
Relying on the burst of soul power, a practitioner can run faster than the fastest galloping horse in the world in a short period of time. Especially the higher the practitioner, the faster they move. However, if you want to maintain the running speed at all times,
It is faster than the running speed of a horse in the army, and the soul power is consumed equally quickly, so in terms of lasting endurance, practitioners cannot compare with the horse in the army.
As long as they are not completely distanced by the practitioners, the cavalry will definitely be able to catch up with the practitioners in plain areas like Nanling Province.
As for the other nearly 800 cavalry troops that were separated, as long as they could block the Yunqin patrol army, they could wait for the other two Damang troops to come and surround them.
After the initial fear and confusion, the Da Mang cavalry chasing Lin Xi began to shoot.
Although the distance between Lin Xi and the Da Mang Cavalry was not within the reach of the bows and arrows equipped by the Da Mang Cavalry, the arrows fired by the Da Mang Cavalry were not intended to kill Lin Xi at this moment - the arrows they shot were from Da Mang.
Fire phosphorus arrows from Mang's Munitions Workshop.
This kind of arrow is covered with a layer of silver-white metal powder and phosphorus powder. After flying for dozens of steps, it will burn due to the sharp friction with the air, emitting a dazzling white light, just like the arrows in Lin Xi's previous world.
Just like flares.
These arrows fell, and under the bright white firelight, all the Da Mang soldiers chasing Lin Xi finally saw clearly the Yunqin assassin who had cast a shadow of death on all Da Mang generals more than ten days ago.
They saw that Lin Xi's body was not tall or strong compared to the giant bow he was carrying, and his running posture did not look violent, but when every step fell, all these brave soldiers
But there is a feeling that all the muscles and bones in his body are perfectly coordinated and full of unspeakable explosive power.
Anything unknown is always scarier than the known.
At this time, these Da Mang soldiers looked at Lin Xi's running figure. Although everyone had a feeling of heart palpitations because they could feel the strength of the opponent, they really saw their opponent clearly. They saw clearly that the opponent was just a person and not a human being.
As a demon, most of the fear in the hearts of these brave soldiers disappeared invisibly.
"kill him!"
"Avenge the general!"
When the second round of fire phosphorus arrows burned in the air, trailing long white flame tails and falling, at least a hundred Da Mang soldiers screamed loudly.
However, at this moment, there was a heavy roar, and the cavalry that was chasing in the direction of the Yunqin Patrol Army fell hard to the ground, splashing countless grass clippings and dust.
Immediately afterwards, there were sounds of dull collisions and falling to the ground. Dozens of war horses in the rear fell to the ground one after another. Amidst the screams of the horses and the screams of the sergeants on the horses, the horses in the rear were also unable to recover.
He hit the fallen horse in front of him.
The Damang cavalry chasing Lin Xi didn't know what was happening there. They looked at the sudden chaos in that place with fear and confusion, but they couldn't see any enemy troops.
Suddenly, in front of their cavalry, the horse at the forefront suddenly leaned forward slightly, as if it was suddenly shorter in front. Then the horse could no longer continue, neighing miserably as if it was kneeling.
It was normal, and it hit the ground hard.
Only the Da Mang soldier who was closest to the war horse saw at this moment that the horse's front hooves had been cut off.
Then at the same time as their screams sounded, the front hooves of the horses under them were cut off very quickly. They and the horses fell heavily to the ground, and the horses that rushed behind them also fell down, colliding with them and underneath them.
on the horses.
"Peng!" "Peng!" "Peng!" The heavy impact of skin and flesh sounded like war drums.
After nearly a hundred cavalry collided and fell in front of them, the cavalry at the rear stopped their momentum. They were extremely shocked and furious to see that the reason why such a thing happened was because the opponent had placed extremely thin and extremely thin weapons in the grass.
Tough steel wire.
At this moment, some of the dozen or so steel wires that came from nowhere were broken during the collision, while others were still intact.
Even with the light of the fire phosphorus arrows, the black steel wires hidden in the grass were difficult to see with the naked eye in the dark night. It was only visible at this moment because these black steel wires were stained with blood beads.
Lin Xi in front was still running at a constant speed, and had not yet escaped the sight of the great cavalry. However, amid the painful neighing of the horses with broken hooves in front and the miserable howls of the sergeants lying on the ground with broken skin and bones,
However, this large cavalry army did not know how many such wires and other traps were hidden in front of them. For a moment, they did not dare to run forward at all. They could only watch Lin Xi's figure disappear into the darkness with demonic horror.
among.
This is basically... one man ambushed an army.
…
After making sure that his figure was completely out of the sight of the pursuers behind him, Lin Xi suddenly slowed down, began to step lightly on the ground with his feet, then took a look at the direction and headed straight to the southwest.
After the first assassination of Da Mang army generals began, in the past ten days, he has successfully assassinated more than ten Da Mang generals, with archery skills and cultivation, as well as some small people like the Windrunner retreating today.
His methods have become more proficient. However, from some of the whereabouts of Da Mang's army that he has come into contact with these days, he can also feel that Yunqin still has not curbed the rapid momentum of Da Mang's army. The troops that Da Mang's army harassed
Going deeper into the territory of Nanling Province, some Damang troops have even approached the south side of Falling Star Lake in Nanling Province.
This means that the Da Mang army is still able to fight with ease near Qianxia Mountain and has the upper hand. Moreover, the Da Mang army can penetrate deep into Nanling Province to raid, which poses a great threat to the Yunqin army's transportation of grain, grass, ordnance, and the gathering of reinforcements.
And for Lin Xi, the most critical thing is that the deeper the Da Mang army goes, the more Yunqin people will be killed, injured and displaced.
Now that the entire southern part of Nanling Province is empty, Lin Xi can imagine that there must be a large flow of refugees in the northern part of Nanling Province at this moment. And when he is walking in the southern part of Nanling Province, he almost feels like the end of the world. Many
The market towns that were originally as lively as Donggang and Yanlai were already deserted even before they encountered the Da Mang army.
And not all the people in the market towns did not encounter the Da Mang army head-on before fleeing.
Just two days ago, Lin Xi saw the tragic image of the town being looted and massacred by Da Mang's army in Qianchun Town.
When she came out of Biluo Mausoleum, Lin Xi had already understood that it was impossible to separate herself from this world. Such a scene made Lin Xi know that she was destined to be unable to separate her personal grievances from this war.
So even though he was very tired at this moment, he still didn't want to rest and continued to move towards the southwest where Li Yingxing just said there were traces of Da Mang's army.
In the pre-dawn darkness, which was about an hour before sunrise, Lin Xi had already arrived at the Xialuo Town that Li Yingxing had mentioned.
This is a town in the southwest of Nanling Province, three hundred miles away from Qianxia Border Pass. It was originally an important official town leading to Zhenjian Pass at Qianxia Border Pass, but Zhenjian Pass was right next to Wenren Cang Yue and conquered it from the beginning.
Tong'an Pass is one of the three passes, so even if she didn't know the specific military situation at this moment, Lin Xi knew that it should be more dangerous than other areas in Nanling Province. From Li Yingxing's words, Lin Xi could feel that the Yunqin army was facing
There is not much control here, at least the Da Mang army has control over this area.
In the darkness before dawn, Lin Xi soon saw that a large army was stationed in the town that had already experienced battles and seemed to be riddled with holes!
At such a distance that ordinary practitioners couldn't see Lin Xi clearly, but Lin Xi could clearly see the situation in the town, Lin Xi was standing next to a miscellaneous tree on a field ridge, frowning slightly towards the town.
Looking at it.
There are at least a hundred Damang sergeants patrolling around the town. In the inner town, marching tents are set up on the streets. The size of the army with such marching tents is generally not small.
, and generally only armies that march long distances will carry this kind of marching tent, which allows people to rest better in the wilderness and better preserve their physical strength.
At this moment, what really made Lin Xi feel a little strange was that in the center of the town that he could not see yet, probably at the center of the large Mang army, there seemed to be a faint collision with a steel prison car and a strange whistling sound.
Stop outgoing.
