Chapter 524: Being Tricked



"I just want to know, if we don't retreat while being ambushed, how can we break out of the encirclement?"

"You're not going to ask us to charge forward, are you? That would be courting death."

"The cavalry of the Ge Kingdom are very well coordinated, their horses are strong and their soldiers are fierce. On horseback, they are Daliang's greatest enemy."

They grew up riding horses, and their cavalry could not even last a few rounds before being defeated.

On the ground, with his fighting power, he could fight against two generals of Ge State, but on horseback, he could just turn the tables.

Xiao Hanzheng knew what his scumbag father meant, "Then let them get off their horses."

Xiao Yuanshi: “…” You treat him as your son, so you can get him off your horse whenever you want.

He was about to speak when he continued to persuade Xiao Hanzheng to lead everyone to retreat first.

Xiao Hanzheng took something out of his arms and threw it towards the sky.

Several fiery red fireworks exploded in the air.

This was something Xiao Yuanshi had never seen before.

Then Xi Rong took out a few long fireworks from the pocket on her back, lit them with a fire starter, and aimed them at the Ge State cavalry that were running towards them.

The female soldiers behind her did the same. They took out fireworks from behind, lit them, and aimed them at the heads of the horses ridden by the Ge people.

"Swish, swish, swish!" The sound of fireworks was heard.

One by one, the fireworks fell on the horse's head and body, exploding with "bang bang bang" sounds.

The horses had never experienced anything like this before, and were startled by the bright lights and loud noises of the fireworks.

As a result, they all rioted, did not obey any orders, and ran around everywhere.

Many cavalrymen even collided with each other or were knocked off their horses by frightened horses.

There were also a few horses that were not hit by the fireworks. They managed to keep their composure under the control of the Ge State soldiers and continued to rush towards Xiao Hanzheng and the others.

Seeing these cavalry approaching, Xiao Hanzheng shouted, "Kill them!"

Then Xiao Yuanshi and his men saw a group of well-trained men in black rushing out from behind.

Holding a weapon they had never seen before, they didn't know how it was done, but the weapon suddenly ejected a chain with a long hook.

Then they swung at the legs of the horses that were rushing towards them.

Soon, the horses that rushed over either had their front hooves broken by long hooks or had their front hooves caught by chains, and they all fell to their knees.

As a result, the Ge soldiers riding on their horses also fell to the ground.

Xiao Yuanshi and his men were stunned.

Because there are fireworks exploding all the time, lighting up the area, and there is moonlight tonight.

So they witnessed with their own eyes that the usually powerful and tough cavalry of the Ge State were vulnerable to Xiao Hanzheng's unexpected tactics.

"What are you still looking at? Deputy Commander Xiao, hurry up and take your men. Fighting on horseback is not possible. They have all dismounted. Why can't you do it?"

Then Xiao Hanzheng's voice sounded in their ears, which brought them back to their senses.

Xiao Yuanshi's face looked a little ugly. He really didn't expect that his son was a genius in combat.

No wonder they had to raid at night, so they could use these modified fireworks to scare the horses.

That new weapon was also a powerful weapon against cavalry. He didn't know when it was developed, but he had never seen it before.

He had been thinking about retreating and after escaping to a safe place, he would use his identity as an experienced military commander to educate this arrogant son.

But now he felt a little pain in his face.

Especially after hearing Xiao Hanzheng's sarcasm, his face hurt even more.

"Charge!" He drew his sword and rushed out first.

Ever since he met his eldest son, he has been holding a lot of anger in his heart and he has to vent it out somehow.

The soldiers that Xiao Yuanshi had transferred over now rushed forward one by one as if they were injected with chicken blood.

They were originally a powerful enemy, and many of their comrades and relatives died at the hands of these beasts in Ge State.

Just now I saw that the elite cavalry of the Ge State, which had always been mighty and invincible, had suffered such a blow and is now completely routed.

As a result, the enemy's heads were harvested one by one.

The general of Ge State never expected that they would be defeated in just a moment, and in a very miserable way.

His face was gloomy, and he had to give the order, "Retreat!"

If the fighting continues, the elite troops he brought with him will be wiped out.

He rode on his horse and looked towards the young man with a jade-like face in the distance illuminated by the fireworks.

Although it was the first time he met him, he was sure of his identity. Shi Qingluo's husband, Xiao Hanzheng, was indeed not a simple man.

He remembered this grudge.

Then he turned his horse around and retreated with the remaining soldiers and the soldiers who were fleeing in front.

As soon as they rushed into a woods, torches suddenly lit up all around and countless arrows whizzed towards them.

Liang Yulin rode on his horse and smiled at the general leading the troops of the Ge Kingdom, "Since you are here, don't leave!"

The general's face changed instantly. Obviously, he didn't expect that King Yi had set up an ambush here.

This means that the other party has planned everything.

"Kill them!" He drew his sword and blocked the arrows while heading towards King Yi.

To catch a thief, one must first catch the king. Now, as long as we can capture King Yi, we can turn the defeat around and save our lives.

Liang Yulin drew out his sword and took the initiative to meet him.

He was wearing a moon-white brocade robe, which made him look even more handsome under the moonlight, with a graceful figure and elegant manner.

It was in stark contrast to the rough-looking and burly General Ge.

Judging from his physique and strength, King Yi was no match for this general.

That's why the general smiled with joy when he saw King Yi foolishly rushing towards him.

You are really looking for death!

So he rushed over at a faster speed and the two of them quickly fought.

But what the general did not expect was that King Yi was very skilled in martial arts, and even though he took advantage of his cavalry, he was unable to defeat the opponent in a short time.

Instead, I had a vague feeling that I couldn't beat the opponent.

Then Liang Yulin pushed his hand forward and stood on the horse's back.

He tapped his toes again, leaped up with the force of his feet, and kicked the general of Ge State in front of him.

The general was completely shocked by King Yi's action.

When he came to his senses, he was a step too slow and was kicked to the ground by King Yi.

Just as he was about to leap up like a tiger, a long sword fell on his neck.

He looked up and saw King Yi standing in front of him with a sword against his neck.

He looked at King Yi in disbelief, "Your martial arts skills are so high."

Didn't they say that although King Yi had martial arts skills, he was a sickly person? How could he be so strong? His fighting ability was ranked in the top ten in the Ge Kingdom, but he was defeated after just a few rounds of fighting.

King Yi is not only a martial arts expert, but also very agile and flexible, and has excellent horsemanship.

It's totally inconsistent with the message.

He couldn't help but curse in his heart, wondering which idiot collected this information, it was all fake.

In addition to the fact that King Yi's news was false, Xiao Hanzheng's news also had big problems.

As soon as they met, they used special methods to scare their war horses, causing the cavalry to be unable to play to their advantage and quickly be defeated.

How could he be a weak scholar? How could he not understand war tactics? He was really screwed by those bastards who collected information.
