Chapter 376: Blood of the Horse, Hegemon of the Human
On the official road from Longxi Prefecture to Xiangyi Prefecture, a horse galloped away.
Old Master Xu brought the three brothers Xu Lao Da back from Huangfengkou, and they quickly split into two echelons on the way.
There is no way, Xu Laoer’s Arabian horse is really domineering.
Although the horses ridden by Old Man Xu, Boss Xu Da and Boss Xu San were all considered to be fine horses, there was a huge gap between them and Boss Xu Er's Ferghana horse.
In addition, the situation was urgent, so Mr. Xu simply let Mr. Xu go first.
With Xu Lao Er's bravery, he could have held his own even against the Northern Barbarian cavalry. Even if he were defeated, it wouldn't be difficult for him to escape. In fact, Xu Lao Er might not even need to escape, waiting for the three of them to arrive.
After receiving the order from his father, Xu Laoer immediately became happy.
The domineering power of the Arabian horse was fully demonstrated. It really ran like the wind and was as fast as lightning.
A man and a horse galloped along the official road, and soon left Mr. Xu and the others behind.
"Hurry~~"
Xu Lao Er whipped his horse, urging the Ferghana horse to gallop. As long as the Ferghana horse could run, he had no intention of stopping.
It's not that I don't cherish this rare Arabian horse, but compared to the people at home, even if it is a real Shenma, it has to take second place at this moment.
…
At the same time, on the opposite side of the official road where Xu Laoer was galloping on his horse, Li Gan was also fleeing for his life.
The horse Li Gan was riding was the mount of Antai Duke Xu Huairen, which was also a good horse.
However, he had only acquired the horse temporarily and hadn't fully utilized its power. As a result, he was tightly held by the Northern Barbarian cavalry and couldn't gain much distance.
"Is God going to kill me?"
After running so far and not seeing any cavalry sent by the Northwest Town Army Camp, Li Gan was a little unsure whether he could escape.
When he noticed that the speed of the warhorse under him was slowing down, Li Gan understood that the horse was reaching its limit.
"Mom, I'm an unfilial son!"
"Wife, your husband has let you down in this life!"
Li Gan reined in his warhorse, raised his hand to pull out the Hu Dao hanging on the horse's back, and turned the horse's head.
His brothers all died in battle outside Maoyuan County, and he did his best to delay time.
Now, since we can't escape, let's fight!
His name is Li Gan, which means "Dan" which means "dare to die".
Even if I die, I can only die facing the enemy.
"kill--"
Li Gan spurred his horse forward to meet the pursuing Northern Barbarian cavalry.
One man against a thousand cavalrymen, this is Li Gan's highlight moment.
As the war horses galloped, countless images flashed through Li Gan's mind, and finally turned into one thought, that is, to kill one to break even, and kill two to make a profit!
However, when Li Gan was less than a hundred steps away from the Northern Barbarian cavalry, it seemed as if a gust of wind blew past him, and then he saw a ball of fire passing by him.
"Xu Yuanba of the Tang Dynasty is here, anyone who stands in my way will die—"
It was Xu Laoer who came.
He is riding a Ferghana horse, wearing a red cloak. The horse is galloping like the wind, and the cloak is fluttering. At first glance, it looks like a ball of fire?
The Northern Barbarian cavalrymen chasing Li Gan were delighted to see him turn around and fight. They slowed down their horses slightly, preparing to charge. But who could have imagined that someone would suddenly intervene at this moment?
What surprised these northern barbarian cavalry the most was that the man called himself "Xu Yuanba of the Tang Dynasty".
Xu Yuanba of the Tang Dynasty!
He has a great reputation among the northern barbarians.
The Northern Barbarian King's youngest prince Tuoba Hun and seventh prince Tuoba Lie were both killed by this man.
A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree.
When Xu Lao Er shouted "Xu Yuanba of the Tang Dynasty", he had already taken the lead.
The fighting spirit of the Northern Barbarian cavalry was shaken in an instant.
"He's alone, surround and kill him!"
“Kill, kill, kill!”
"Kill him!"
"Make amends!"
"kill!"
When the fighting spirit of the Northern Barbarian cavalry was shaken, the Northern Barbarian general in charge of the army quickly came to his senses and thought of a way to boost morale.
They had come south this time with a heavy responsibility, but the High Priest's substitute had been killed, making their mission difficult to complete. If they returned to the Northern Barbarians like this, they would all be sinners of the Northern Barbarians.
But if they could kill Xu Yuanba, who killed their two princes, they would be able to make up for their mistake.
This Northern Barbarian general was indeed a talent, able to come up with such a method to boost morale at this time. But he was only a talent, not a genius.
He will never know that in this world, there is a kind of people who are born to be invincible warriors.
If you encounter this kind of person and don't want to die, the best way is to escape.
If numbers could determine victory, there would be no such heroes who could defeat “a thousand men” or “tens of thousands of men” and whose names would be passed down to future generations.
"kill--"
When Xu Laoer saw the Northern Barbarian cavalry charging towards him, his eyes lit up and he thrust out the long spear in his hand. The spear shot out like a dragon, creating seven illusions of flowers.
Seven flowers, seven blood flowers bloomed.
The Northern Barbarian cavalrymen who were in the front, including their talented general, fell to the ground the moment the Ferghana horse ridden by Xu Laoer passed by them.
Xu Laoer was fighting like crazy at this moment, with the long spear in his hand flying around, stabbing the Northern Barbarian cavalry to death, or picking them up, or sweeping them across the waist and smashing them down.
No Northern Barbarian cavalry could withstand a single blow from Xu Laoer.
As long as he meets Xu Laoer, he will either die or be injured.
…
In the back, Li Gan was completely dumbfounded.
He originally wanted to make a desperate charge, killing one to break even, and killing two to make a profit.
But now, he found that he didn't seem to have to die.
Li Gan even felt that he didn't need to step forward to help. No, if he stepped forward, he probably wouldn't be able to help, but would only cause more trouble.
In the past, Li Gan felt that he was very capable and that being a captain in Maoyuan County was a waste of his talent.
But now, after witnessing Xu Laoer's bravery, Li Gan suddenly felt that he was a fucking scumbag.
Judging from his fighting strength, he would probably be defeated in one move.
“Is this still considered a human being?”
If Li Gan hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't believe that a person could be so powerful.
One man fought against thousands of cavalrymen, and was the one who took the offensive.
Compared to the shock of Li Gan, the bystander, the Northern Barbarian cavalry who were fighting with Xu Laoer were even more desperate.
They are fighting hard!
But the result of fighting desperately is to die.
"Shoot!"
"Shoot him!"
After hundreds of people were killed or injured, some Northern Barbarian cavalrymen finally thought of a way to restrain Xu Laoer, thinking they were smart.
However, their nightmare really began when the northern barbarians behind them started shooting arrows.
Xu Laoer no longer sat on the back of his Ferghana horse, but jumped up. He leaped into the air, and the long spear in his hand broke into two parts: a stick in his left hand and a short spear in his right hand.
Then, Xu Laoer seemed to have become a nimble monkey, leaping back and forth on the horses of the Northern Barbarian Cavalry, using the short stick and pistol in his hands to kill at a faster speed.
As for the arrows shot by the Northern Barbarian cavalry, they often failed to hit Xu Laoer, but instead hit their companions.
The fighting lasted less than half an hour, and the Northern Barbarian cavalry was finally defeated!
However, their number of troops was less than half.
Chapter 1 delivered! And then I have to report some bad news, I really caught a cold... crying... However, the good news is that I took medicine in time, and the cold is now under control. Preliminary estimates show that it will not affect the update, but it is only a preliminary estimate, O(∩_∩)O Haha~ Okay, no more nonsense, hurry up and write, while I can still do it!
