This time, the Jin soldiers came to challenge again from Panzhou Lake, and they laid a large number of ambushes on the route the Jin soldiers were bound to take.
The navy mobilized 10,000 soldiers, which is a great bait. I believe the Jin army will definitely fall for it.
To the sailors' surprise, the Jin soldiers not only didn't fall for the trap, but also cut off their retreat. It was no longer possible to escape back to Panzhou Lake, so they had no choice but to flee forward.
During their escape, the sailors were ambushed and killed multiple times, leaving only 3,000 out of 10,000 soldiers. If the Jin soldiers caught up with them, the entire army would be wiped out.
At the critical moment, a group of men came and intercepted the Jin soldiers. Although they escaped, they couldn't help but worry about this group, since they were not many in number.
The Jin soldiers were chasing after the Panzhou Lake sailors with all their might, and they were about to catch up when suddenly a group of men came and blocked their way.
It seems that we can only continue to pursue the sailors after dealing with this group of men.
Seeing that the Jin soldiers had stopped and were preparing to fight him, Yue Heng breathed a sigh of relief. If the Jin soldiers had launched a direct attack at this moment, he would have been in real trouble.
To give the sailors enough time to escape, the Jin soldiers had to be held back a little longer.
At this moment, a general from the Jin army spurred his horse to the front of the two armies and began to challenge them.
This warrior was tall and strong, holding a spiked club in his hand; one could tell at a glance that he possessed brute strength.
Yue Heng is experienced in battle and should have no problem dealing with such a general. Even if he has the strength to knock him off his horse with a spear, he will play with him for a few more rounds to buy time.
Thinking of this, Yue Heng spurred his horse to the front of the two armies. He sized up the approaching general and asked:
Who comes here?
When the other party immediately inquired about his name, Jin Jiang couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"I am Hanmo II, the younger brother of Hanmo Da, the vanguard of Someron."
Upon hearing this, Yue Heng almost burst out laughing. This guy was a bit silly; who introduces themselves like that?
It seems that his brother, Khanmoda, must have been somewhat famous in the Jin Kingdom, otherwise he wouldn't have revealed his brother's identity.
"Oh, so you are General Hanmo Er. In our Great Northern Dynasty, not many people know Hanmo Da, but quite a few know Hanmo Er."
In the Great Northern Dynasty, I am just an unknown soldier. When General Han fights me later, he must show mercy and not let me defeat him too easily.
Look behind me, so many people are watching me. If I get defeated so easily, I'll lose face terribly.
Upon hearing this, Hanmo Er became delighted and continued to laugh heartily.
"Don't worry, I'll go through a few more rounds with you, but it can't be too long, we still need to catch up with those sailors ahead."
"Alright, thank you, General Han." After saying that, Yue Heng cautiously began his battle with Han Mo'er.
This Hanmo Er was truly honest; he did indeed hold back when fighting Yue Heng.
Yue Heng was secretly amused; he hadn't expected there to be such a foolish general on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, Yue Heng and Han Mo'er were working together very well. When Han Mo'er's spiked club came down, it always landed lightly, and when Yue Heng's spear was about to stab Han Mo'er, it always missed and could not pierce Han Mo'er's body at all.
The way the two fought on the battlefield stunned everyone around them. Was this really a battlefield?
After the two fought for a while, some of the Jin soldiers got impatient and started shouting.
"Hanmo Er, if you don't want to fight, hurry up and come down. Don't waste time."
Hanmo Er knew that continuing the fight like this was not a solution, so he spoke up:
“My brother is calling me. I’ve let you off easy for so long. If you keep hitting me like this, he’ll definitely punish me when we get back.”
Seeing that he had played around in front of the two armies for a while, Yue Heng said that it was about time.
"We've been fighting for so long, I'm not ashamed anymore. From now on, we're really going to fight."
"Alright, let's officially begin then, watch out."
After Hanmo Er finished speaking, he raised his spiked club and smashed it down on Yue Heng's head.
It seems this kid is serious. Yue Heng knew that this blow must be quite powerful, so he dodged it.
At this moment, Yue Heng should have thrust his spear at Hanmo Er, but he suddenly spoke.
"Hanmo Er, your brother is here."
Hanmo was stunned and turned to look, only to see Yue Heng thrust his spear into his chest.
Hanmo was caught off guard, and Yue Heng's spear pierced his chest.
Hanmo Er cried out and fell headlong off his horse, dying instantly.
All of this was clearly seen by Hanmo Da, and he was so heartbroken that he almost fainted.
"Second brother, you died a terrible death! Your brother has come to avenge you!" Hanmo shouted and charged forward with his broadsword.
The broadsword in Hanmo's hand was like a small door panel. Before he finished speaking, he was already there, and the broadsword came down.
Yue Heng was taken aback. As expected of Someron's vanguard, his combat power was too formidable.
Hanmo Da's attack was too fierce, and Yue Heng dared not use his spear to touch Hanmo Da's broadsword. He simply dodged, and with a misstep from his warhorse, the two engaged in a fierce battle.
After more than ten rounds of fighting, Yue Heng was clearly no match for his opponent. Every time their weapons clashed, Yue Heng's arms would go numb from the impact.
At this moment, Hanmo Da seemed to have gone mad, fighting desperately against Yue Heng.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Yue Heng feigned an attack, turned his horse around, and began to flee. Hanmo spurred his horse to give chase, and all the Jin soldiers behind him came out and followed like a tide.
Yue Heng led three thousand men and quickly retreated. This place was less than ten miles away from the ambush set up by Li Guang, and they would be able to reach it soon.
Khanmo Da chased after him relentlessly, crying out Khanmo Er's name as he ran.
Perhaps because it hadn't rained for a long time, wherever the large group of people went, dust and sand flew everywhere.
Hanmo ran at the very front of the group, gritting his teeth and vowing to tear Yue Heng to pieces.
Suddenly, the three thousand soldiers running ahead vanished. Hanmo Da didn't pay any attention, thinking it was a downhill road ahead. But upon closer inspection, he found there was no downhill road at all, but rather a flat plain.
Hanmo was greatly surprised. How could these three thousand men have vanished into thin air? He quickly reined in his warhorse, and the more than ten thousand Jin soldiers behind him also stopped.
Even though Hanmo Da was a seasoned warrior, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation, and he was stunned and speechless.
Just then, four city walls seemed to appear around Khanmoda, each with a gate in the middle. However, these gates and walls were made of people.
This is a formation set up by Li Guang, called the Four Gates Encirclement Formation. This formation looks simple, but it is actually infinitely variable.
These Jin soldiers are too powerful. Although ordinary formations can trap them, the price one has to pay is definitely not small.
Li Guang's four-gate encirclement formation at this time could easily eliminate these Jin soldiers using his bows, crossbows, and bombs.
