    Xiahou suddenly raised his head and looked at me, then looked around at the two generals beside him and said slowly one by one: "Ji Heng, I want to hear your opinions." "Plop!" Huo Jiheng and Babel fell to the ground on their knees and cried out sadly.  He said: "My lord, Prince Mingjian, has said some good words of wisdom!" At this moment, the atmosphere in the living room was extremely depressing.  I don¡¯t know when the night sky outside the window started to fall again with flying snowflakes.  After a long silence, Xia Hou let out his usual long breath and said, "I'm sorry, I can't promise you." Everyone was stunned and unable to accept this ending.  Xiahou always said: "Get up!" Huo Jiheng and the Tower of Babel stood up in response.  Xia Hou always responded with a calm expression and said: "I refuse for five reasons: first, the kindness of the late emperor has not been repaid. Second, the support of the great benevolent man has not been repaid. Third, as the marshal of the empire, I cannot give the soldiers a reason to openly disobey orders.  The world is not in chaos and anyone can evade culpability? Fourthly, although the imperial court is corrupt and degenerate, the empire has not yet reached its end. There should still be a chance for me to fight for it with all my strength. Fifthly, I, the Marquis of Xia, must always be worthy of the Northern Expedition.  What if the millions of soldiers and tens of millions of soldiers who died in the battle escaped and saved their own lives? To sum up, death is not a pity, so there is no need to persuade you." At this point, he paused.  After taking a look at Huo Jiheng and Babel Tower, he said to me: "Brother Liu, the two of them and Ghostface Guard are entrusted to you!" After saying that, he bowed to the ground.  I quickly stretched out my hand to support him and said, "How dare you accept this great gift if you don't obey the instructions given by Brother Xiahou!" At this time, Huo Jiheng and the Tower of Babel said in unison: "We are willing to live and die with our lord and never leave even half a step!"  Seeing their resolute attitude, Xiahou nodded helplessly and said: "Okay! Let's go to Beijing then." I looked around at everyone in silence for a moment and then said with a bitter smile: "Qinghou fully respects the decision of the three of you and I wish you all the best on your journey.  Good luck! Oh. One more thing, no matter how the world changes, please remember that the door of the Crescent Alliance will always be open to you. If you have any difficulties, just ask." I left Jiuhezhan in an extremely bad mood.  Not long after returning to the intelligence station, Wei Changli also came back and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, no enemy signs were seen on the way back and forth." I glanced at him feebly and sighed: "I failed to convince Xia Hou that he has always been a pity for this important person.  He is an unparalleled hero who values ??righteousness, sincerity, and disregards life and death!" Wei Changli was shocked and said: "Huh?" Then he couldn't help but said: "Lord" I raised my hand to stop him and shook his head: "No for the time being.  Fa Zai advised us to wait until things turn around." Wei Changli smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know if he is brave enough to go to the tiger mountain." I said solemnly: "No matter what makes us angry.  We have to ensure his safety." Then he said: "Hey, I have to bring a few more people with me when I enter the capital. It's just that the time before entering the capital will be more dangerous if something happens.  We have to think of a perfect solution!" Wei Changli said with a smile: "Can't we just dispatch the 6th Marine Battalion to accompany us for protection?" I glared at him and said angrily: "Even if there is no enemy.  The spies followed them all the way across the state and counties, and they fell into the eyes of many interested people. They then used flying pigeons to send messages to the front. Now that so many people suddenly appeared, all the idiots knew they were our people. Wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for Xiahou?  Are the people in the dead place telling the truth?" Wei Changli said with a slight blush, "What should I do?" I said calmly, "It seems that this is all." Wei Changli said in shock: "Master" I drank decisively.  He stopped and said: "I have made up my mind and everything will go according to plan." ¡ñ¡ñ¡ñ The sound of hooves rumbled at dawn on December 23, 811 in the imperial calendar.  Xia Hou's usual Thirteen Riders galloped out of Yunuma Town along the official road and quickly merged into the vast night in the wild.  It was dark all around and I hid at the end of the team and followed them silently.  Since we can't send a large team of troops for protection, we can only send a small number of experts to accompany us. The best candidate is myself.  The whole process is very simple. I sneak into the Jiuhe Stack Ghostface Guard's room, stun everyone without knowing it, and then choose one of them to perform "Jiuyou Search God Transforms into Heaven and Strikes Earth**" to copy the memory.  Then he used the Sunflower Magic Kung Fu to simulate his appearance, body shape and voice. Finally, he changed into clothes, accessories, etc. and handed the man over to Wei Changli who was taking care of him outside. Then he was done.  Of course, all this was hidden from Xia Hou and others because if Yan made it clear, he would definitely not accept it, and I just didn¡¯t want to see him have any accidents on the road.  For a long time, I have been accustomed to other people's opinions. Today, I am playing the role of a follower, and I can't help but find it new and interesting.  It's a pity that no one in the team talked to me?The lifelike voice and accent couldn't have been more fun otherwise.  There was nothing to say all the way. At noon, the cavalry arrived at the foot of Wuhu Ridge. Xiahou always ordered to rest for a while.  I followed the example of other ghost-faced guards, chewing dry food in my mouth while feeding and drinking water to the war horse.  Out of professional habit, I silently observed the surrounding topography and couldn't help but take a breath.  "Evil Tiger Ridge" is named after its resemblance to a roaring tiger.  Looking up: high forests, dense streams, deep slopes, steep cliffs and waterfalls and pools everywhere. From the front to the back of the ridge, there is only a small trail.  I thought to myself: "If the enemy sets up an ambush here, we are destined to be in trouble." At this time, the Tower of Babel sent an order: "After checking the weapons and equipment, everyone mounts their horses and enters the second-level combat readiness state and advances in frontal formation!" "Look!  When I came to Xiahou, I always found that the dangerous terrain here was the best place to set up an ambush." ??I thought while executing the order quickly.  The standard configuration of the Ghost Face Guard is to wear a fierce ghost helmet, a rhinoceros leather shirt lined with fish scales and soft armor, a turtle-backed square shield in his left glove, and a "whirlwind" style assault crossbow in his right hand (Note: Made in Southern Xinjiang exclusively for use by Fengyun Emperor)  The model of the Thirty Company) wears ten tungsten steel armor-piercing quivers and a rock-cutting sword on the waist, a wolf-tooth dagger on each leg, and rhinoceros leather boots on the feet.  The war horses also wore fine steel fine scale vests to defend against arrow attacks.  With the full set of equipment in place, the Grimace Guard turned out to be a killing machine with endless fighting intent and tyranny to the extreme.  ????????????????????????????????Everyone walked slowly and cautiously along the sheep intestine path for several miles without finding anything abnormal.  It seemed that after walking a few miles, we would pass through the Evil Tiger Ridge. A horn sounded not far from the front of the Evil Tiger Ridge, and then there were voices in the dense forest on the hillside in all directions. It was clear that the enemy was mobilizing all forces to encircle them.  The worst situation finally happened.  The north wind blew in, causing everyone to wear robes that were close to their bodies and dance, and a bone-chilling chill rose in their hearts.  Everyone looked at Xia Hou, who was sitting majestically on the white dragon colt, waiting for his lord's order.  The narrow path at your feet intersects with the official road, which is the broadest among the roads leading to Woniuguan, and leads directly to the north gate of the imperial capital.  Breaking through the Woniuguan Pass along the Yangchang Trail is the most direct and quickest method that can be thought of at present.  The ideal result is of course to reach Woniuguan directly.  Wu Xiangkuan, the guard of Woniu Pass, and Xia Hou were classmates in the Magic Dance Academy. They lived under the same roof for four years and still kept in touch after graduation. After Xia Hou was promoted to Marshal of the Empire, he took care of him in every possible way. They had a life-long friendship.  .  After entering the customs, there were heavy troops on defense. No matter how courageous the enemy was, they would not dare to attack the restricted military area on the charge of rebellion.  In addition, even if we are intercepted and abandon our horses to climb down the river, the initiative is still in our own hands, so there is great hope for a successful breakout.  While I was thinking about it, a loud laugh came from my ears.  Henan will be too busy to intercept him." He then pulled out two charge crossbows and took the lead: "Odin!" Everyone shouted in unison and rushed out.  The sky is thick with clouds and the sunshine is dim. The weather shows no sign of improvement.  With no distractions, I urged the horse with all my strength and charged like everyone else with the mentality of going as far as I can.  While we were marching, I took a peek and saw the heroes of Northern Xinjiang riding their horses so fast that their four hooves were soaring into the air. I couldn't help but secretly praise their superb riding skills. It was as if they were not inferior to Caesar's iron cavalry or the alien wolf cavalry. They could defeat the heavy cavalry of Southern Xinjiang.  Comparison continued.  Suddenly Huo Jiheng shouted: "Be careful on the right!" As soon as he finished speaking, Xiahou Guangxi led his team to turn to the left.  The sound of a right hoofbeat shook the sky. Hundreds of enemy cavalry rushed out from the dense forest like lightning and followed the secretly opened horse path to pursue them.  "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The charging crossbow arrows came like a heavy rain, but everyone reacted in time to avoid the left turn of the road, which was out of range. The powerful arrows were shot in the air and hit the rock wall and soil slope about ten feet away from the cavalry.  The cavalry stirred up a long dragon with splashes of snow and mud, and kept advancing on the left side of the road at the height of a goshawk, turning one corner after another, and engaging in a fierce death race with the enemy cavalry chasing after them from the right side of the road.  Babel Tower suddenly shouted: "The right team, prepare to fight back! Shoot!" The next moment, the five ghost-faced guards on the right team turned around and fired a volley.  "Whoosh! Whoosh!" In the sound, powerful arrows were fired from ten "whirlwind" style charging crossbows, specifically to challenge the enemy's cavalry.  In the blink of an eye, the enemy's horses neighed miserably, and one after another stumbled and fell to the ground, blocking the way forward. The enemy's rapid charge was immediately blocked and they could no longer chase along the road.  The cavalry turned a sharp bend and turned towards a straighter mountain road. They saw silhouettes of people on the highlands on both sides, heavy crossbows lined up left and right, and further away there were six rows of Titan infantry with vertical shields in front of them, blocking the way.  Everyone¡¯s eyes showed solemn looks.  It turns out that the mountain road has narrowed and the slopes on both sides are towering. The enemy has taken advantage of the terrain. No matter which side we are on, we are still in the enemy's heavy crossbows and charging crossbows.Within range.  At this time, the war drums were ringing loudly. Not only were hundreds of enemies emerging from the highlands on both sides, but six rows of Titan infantry in front of them also rushed out from behind. Nearly a thousand cavalry rushed out. A long section of the mountain road was filled with flags. The sun was covered with spears like a forest.  Murderous.  Xia Hou always knew that in such a situation, if he broke forward and waited for death, he made a decision immediately: "Get off the road!" In an instant, the members of the cavalry moved away from the mountain road and rushed towards the dense forest on the lower left side of the road. As a result, before they could enter the forest, densely packed arrows were raining down on them.  Come.  Everyone used their special skills to crawl on their saddles, one by one, and the horses and men pulled out their rock-cutting swords and slashed left and right to clear the obstacles. When the horses suddenly fell about ten feet to the ground, they were able to avoid the arrow net, spread their iron hooves, and ran wildly into the edge of the dense forest.  After I found that the front was blocked, I started "Nine Nether Searching Gods to Transform the Sky and Strike the Earth**" to see the situation far and near at a glance, and to deeply understand the enemy's determination to put Xiahou to death.  In addition to the three groups of enemies blocking the mountain road, there are also several mixed troops composed of different types of troops arrayed outside the dense forest to block our way.  They include three types of archers, infantry guards and cavalry, each with about 1,600 people each, a total of 5,000 people, which is the size of a main regiment.  Under the command of the long and continuous sound of horns, the ambush soldiers on the outskirts of the dense forest drew out their charging crossbows, held their weapons high and entered the dense forest, then spread out and waited for the cavalry to fall into the trap.  I took a breath and thought to myself: "This main force alone is strong enough to annihilate the cavalry. What's more, as long as they are entangled for a moment, there are no one knows how many enemies will come from all directions, and no one has a chance to escape."  " I unfolded "Nine Nether Search Gods Transform the Sky and Strike the Earth**" and looked behind the ambush.  However, I saw that the trees from the waist to the foot of the ridge had long been cut down and were completely bare. The nearest forest was at least twenty miles away, within a radius of twenty miles with Wuhu Ridge as the center.  All trees were cleared from all three directions except the path the cavalry came from.  This move was extremely detrimental to the cavalry because they had nowhere to hide and no conditions conducive to escape other than relying on their own strength.  The most unlucky thing is that in addition to the troops not far away, there are also groups of iron cavalry with complete formations and great military appearance coming towards here in the distance. There are no less than two thousand people. Once they are trapped in a tight siege, no one can even think of rushing out.  Seeing that he was about to fall into the enemy's encirclement, the Tower of Babel let out a loud shout and swung his sword.  The force surged out like an overwhelming force and hit several enemy soldiers directly in front who were hit by the brunt of the impact. They fell straight to the ground and died on the spot as if they had been struck by lightning.  However, he calmly turned his horse to the right and led the galloping cavalry towards the edge area where the enemy troops were scattered.  The cavalry took advantage of this short gap to quickly spread out and re-form a sharp arrow formation, using the Tower of Babel as the tip to drive viciously into the enemy formation.  In an instant, the Tower of Babel's eight-foot-long blunt black sword was powerful again. Before they could see clearly what was going on, the two enemy guards infantry were smashed to the side and turned into a ball of bloody mud and meat.  Huo Jiheng's phoenix-winged gilded hammer is also unambiguous.  As soon as his luck swept away, the dozen or so enemy spearmen who came from the left were either shaken to the point of losing their arms, or their chests and abdomen burst with blood like fountains and they died before their eyesight.  The most powerful thing is Xia Hou's consistent iron-spine snake spear, which is like a shower of stars falling from the sky. Someone always falls to the ground in response to the sound of the spear.  I was so excited to watch that I immediately turned the rock-cutting sword in my hand into thunderbolts and lightning, killing all those who intercepted him.  He clung to the rear of the team and charged all the way with ease.  Suddenly, the cavalry broke through the enemy's last line of defense in the dense forest and rushed out of the tight siege.  Enemies gathered from all directions like a tide and chased behind the cavalry. The enemy iron cavalry who were originally responsible for blocking the road down the mountain also urged their horses to surround and attack.  At this moment, there is really no way forward, and there is no place for the evil tiger ridge with a huge pursuer.  At present, there is only enemy infantry behind the cavalry, which is insignificant compared to the overall strength. If the iron cavalry regiment, which is the main force of the enemy, is allowed to arrive, it will be a disaster.  Xiahou, who had figured this out, shouted: "Follow me!" As he said this, he led the team to draw a beautiful arc-shaped trajectory, and before the two enemies came together, he urged his horse to miraculously fly a distance of nearly thirty feet.  He successfully turned back towards the mountain road by brushing against the edge of the enemy infantry formation that was rushing towards him from behind.  The next moment, spears, hammers, and spears all came out with invincible strength. Before the cavalry arrived, they blasted the enemy in all directions, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, and forcibly cut a bloody path in the forest of swords and guns.  "Herod!" As the war horses neighed wildly, the thirteen knights jumped into the air one after another. They jumped up to an incredible height of five feet and set foot on the winding path again. However, they were already behind six rows of Titan infantry, and the nearly a thousand cavalry had already descended.  The pursuit inadvertently opened up an otherwise impenetrable path.  No one expected that the cavalry would make a comeback, so Xiahou's usual strategy of attacking in the east and in the west and diverting the tiger away from the mountain was a complete success.  However, the danger has not yet been eliminated. There are still two thousand cavalry running in formation under the ridge ahead. This is the real test of life and death.  Xiahou always shouted: "Odin!" As he said that, he once again took the lead and rushed to the foot of the ridge.  Huo Jiheng and Babel did not dare to neglect and followed closely behind Xiahou Guanyin and galloped towards the foot of the mountain.They were ten ghost-faced guards covered in blood.  The cavalry ran faster and faster, rushing straight and madly towards the heavy cavalry group. If they passed that level, there would be no obstacle left.  On the left side of the road, there were constant charges, crossbows, and arrows. Unfortunately, they all landed behind the horse's tail, causing the sky to fill with slush, which was extremely thrilling.  Gradually, due to the steep terrain, the enemy troops on the flanks had no time to catch up, and the range of the charging crossbows was not enough. The cavalry finally got rid of those lingering followers.  The heavy cavalry group in front is getting closer and closer.  Suddenly Xia Hou shouted loudly: "Get ready to fire a salvo on the right wing!" It turned out that hundreds of enemy troops emerged from the ditch on the right side of the road and wanted to cut off the road ahead. How could they succeed?  At the same time, everyone pulled out the assault crossbow with one hand, replaced it with a new arrow case with the other hand, and pulled the trigger continuously with extraordinary speed, as if performing a performance.  In an instant, the enemy soldiers who had just climbed up to the side of the road but had not seen clearly what was going on fell to the ground and fell into the ditch again.  The corpse hit the climber below, weighing nearly two hundred kilograms even with armor, and it was caught off guard and immediately caused the enemy team to become chaotic and fierce, not knowing whether to hide first or counterattack.  Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiahou, who had always been merciless in fighting, led the cavalry to advance in a winding and serpentine route, causing the enemy's arrows to miss.  A few miles away, the Kungfu Cavalry was about to run down the ridge at the speed of a flying bird when they suddenly realized that the road in front of them was completely blocked.  There are thousands of large-scale ditches on the mountain road. The ditches beside the road are dug and are five feet wide and seven feet deep. The wooden piles cut off further away are tied with snagging ropes.  Even the petite hare of Jun's Northern Xinjiang war horse would have a hard time crossing there.  I couldn't help but secretly lamented: "It's a pity. It's a pity that if there were war horses, everyone would have been able to break through the encirclement unharmed, but now it's hard to say! This enemy general is so thoughtful and ruthless that he doesn't leave any room." At this time, Xia Hou  Always without any hesitation, he shouted: "Abandon the horse!" After saying that, he, Huo Jiheng and Babel jumped up into the air and rushed to the other end of the ditch on the right side of the road.  The Ghostface Guards followed closely behind, flying across the ditch like eagles and throwing themselves at the tripping rope array ahead.  The war horses who witnessed their master's departure from behind were wailing incessantly, which was heart-breaking. However, at this moment, Cun Yin Cun Jin couldn't care less about their feelings.  Everyone passed through the tripping rope formation as quickly as possible, then jumped into the Mangniu River at the foot of the mountain, dived into the water, and in a blink of an eye, they surfaced and landed ashore to continue their journey.  It's not that they don't want to use the river to escape, it's just because the Mangniu River is in a circular shape and surrounds most of the evil tiger ridge. In addition, the water temperature is too low in winter, and everyone is heavily armored and has weapons with them. They really can't afford to waste that time and energy.  Xiahou Yiguan, Huo Jiheng and Babel were very skilled. Fortunately, the Ghost Face Guards had experienced a series of fierce battles. In addition, they usually only focused on cavalry combat and underestimated the physical training of infantry. Everyone felt a little out of breath.  These instantly invincible warriors showed their fatal weakness for the first time after losing their companions who lived and died together. ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ?? Everyone was caught off guard and dumbfounded. Xia Hou always exclaimed: "It's the heavy cavalry, hurry up!" The team fled again. I fell behind the rear of the team and looked back to the west. I saw countless enemy troops pouring down from the Evil Tiger Ridge like ants in a dense swarm at the end.  In front was an iron cavalry force of more than two thousand people.  They were galloping along the bank of the Mangniu River until they were less than a mile away from us.  Xiahou always ran while pointing to the undulating hills about six miles to the southeast and shouted: "Go there!" After saying this, he took the lead and everyone followed quickly.  The troops rushed to the southeast like arrows. Everyone lamented the bad luck and the cunning and cunning tactics of the enemy generals.  I thought I had a chance of escaping through the mountain pass, but I didn't expect that the obstacles composed of horses, ditches and snagging ropes at the end of the mountain road were completely shattered.  This time, no one knew whether they could escape from Shengtian at the next moment. All they could do was stay as far away from the enemy's search teams as possible.  The situation is not optimistic because the foot power of everyone can be faster than well-trained war horses in the short distance, but they will definitely lose to them in the long distance.  And the worst thing is that running like this at the extreme limit will greatly deplete the true energy and physical energy, until the moment of exhaustion, one can only stand and die.  If there are hidden terrains such as mountains, rivers, forests, and lakes along the way, or bad weather such as wind, rain, fog, and snow, we can still use various deception methods to get rid of the enemy. Unfortunately, we are now in a flat plain area with fair weather, and there is still more than an hour before dark. I am really helpless at this moment.  The situation is extremely unfavorable to everyone.  It looked like there were only a few miles left to the hills.  Everyone was excited because the terrain there restricted the ability of the cataphract to move like the wind.  However, I, who was at the end of the team, felt very bad because the group of enemy cavalry chasing after them actually maintained a certain speed and followed five hundred steps behind, posing a huge threat at all times like a reminder.  But he just didn't actually cast it.  That scene made me wonder whether the enemy cavalry was deliberately consuming everyone's energy like a cat and mouse.Their strength and will were the last to deliver the fatal blow, or they had something else to rely on, so they didn't act in a hurry.  Suddenly I felt a warning sign, and then I heard Huo Jiheng whisper: "There are enemies on the hills ahead!" Everyone was shocked but had no doubt about "Poison Eyes"'s judgment.  Now that there is no way forward, everyone is left with only two choices: one is to continue to escape southward and eventually be caught up by the two thousand iron cavalry behind them; the other is to continue to the hills as originally planned regardless of the number of ambushes on the road ahead.  Of course, going south is not feasible, not to mention that at this moment, the physical strength is almost exhausted and there is no way to run away. The ambush soldiers jump out and attack from east and west together with the pursuers. Everyone can't stand it, so they can only choose to break through to the hills. It is the only way to survive.  Xia Hou always sighed: "What a trick! I suddenly want to get to know this general." After saying that, he led the team to deviate from the original direction and run to the northeast of the hills, hoping to bypass the enemy's ambush in front and escape to the hills behind them.  Stretching mountains and fields.  The horn of charge sounded.  Five hundred iron cavalry rushed down from the hills and attacked everyone with a killing sound that shook the sky.  Everyone knew that they had escaped a disaster. Otherwise, if they entered the unobstructed terrain within the arrow range of the ambush and were shot intensively by hundreds of charge crossbows, even with the outstanding skills of Xiahou Yiguan, Huo Jiheng and Babel, they would inevitably be injured.  Now the two sides were fighting for life and death again, and the enemy cavalry tried to successfully intercept everyone before they fled into the hills.  Everyone must run into the hills before the enemy intercepts them.  At this time, the iron cavalry in the rear also changed their leisurely and leisurely appearance and frantically pursued them.  Four rumbling hoofbeats shouted in his ears, getting closer and closer. Seeing that he could not rush into the hills ahead of the enemy cavalry, Xiahou Guangguang, the leader, suddenly shouted: "Follow me!" After saying that, he resolutely changed direction and charged diagonally to the right.  The five hundred cavalry who came in blocked the way and killed them.  "Woo!" The horn blared and the enemy riders reined in their horses in unison while running wildly. Their formation also changed from a long snake formation to a giant crab formation.  The head and tail were like a pair of pincers, outflanking everyone from the northeast and southwest.  That spirit responds quickly.  The familiar and flowing formation shows that this enemy cavalry is an elite unit that has experienced hundreds of battles and is well-trained, and is probably not inferior to the Ghostface Guards in terms of riding skills and combat prowess.  What follows will surely be an unprecedented fierce battle.  The enemy cavalry turned into a domineering giant crab and came towards the crowd from the southeast. The crowd formed a desperate dagger and stabbed the giant crab in the abdomen, digging through the hills in front of it.  "Whoosh! Whoosh!" The sound of piercing the air was endless. Hundreds of sharp arrows were shot out from the charging crossbow and fired at the personnel on both sides.  The enemy riders jumped on their backs one after another, and everyone jumped with great energy. Although they avoided most of the powerful arrows, the remaining ones did more or less damage.  Xiahou always bears the brunt.  An arrow was hit in the left shoulder. Fortunately, when the crossbow arrow entered the flesh, it was blocked by the rhinoceros fur coat, the evil wolf swallowing armor, the ice silkworm soft armor and the body's infuriating energy. The tungsten steel armor-piercing arrow did not penetrate deeply into the flesh and was quickly expelled from the body.  But the blood surged out and automatically closed the surrounding acupuncture points, and the entire left arm was temporarily unable to move.  Suddenly thirteen people rushed into the Cancer Formation, surrounded by enemy cavalry that looked like wolves and tigers.  Swordsmen, spears, swords and halberds all attacked head-on.  Seeing that Xiahou was injured, the Tower of Babel suddenly rushed forward and replaced him, becoming the front end of the arrow formation. The blunt black spear brought up a fierce wind and swept across all directions. Any enemy cavalry that came within the attack range would be smashed into pieces, including their men and horses.  .  The enemy was constantly surrounding them from all directions, and the two thousand enemy cavalry chasing behind them had already reached the fifty pace mark. If the two parties joined forces, the consequences would be disastrous.  So Xiahou always ignored his injuries and Huo Jihengshi tried his best to keep the front arrow formation intact and avoid the worries of the Tower of Babel. He tried his best to break through and fled to the hills.  On a battlefield where strength is disparate and close-quarters combat is full of swords and swords, you can¡¯t tell how many weapons are coming at you in the blink of an eye. All tricks and secrets are in vain. The only way to deal with the enemy¡¯s attack is to rely solely on your keen intuition. You must never let the enemy get close, otherwise you will be hugged.  The only outcome for the limbs is to be torn apart by random blades.  Huo Jiheng's phoenix-winged gilded hammer flew up and down, doing his best to inflict fatal damage to the enemy while mitigating the enemy's damage to himself. In the confusion, he couldn't figure out whether the blood flowing on his body was his own blood or the enemy's blood. He just killed like crazy.  Epilepsy.  Xiahou's usual iron-spine snake spears seemed to turn into thousands of venomous snakes. Each shot stabbed the enemy's throat, heart, lower abdomen and other vital parts, and then sent out body-shattering invisible energy to detonate the opponents, all of whom were shattered to pieces and died. The image was extremely tragic.  I was originally staying at the back of the team, but when I saw Xia Hou always being injured, I was quite reluctant when he took action. I immediately used the ghost body technique to sneak to his back and assume the responsibility of covering.  After receiving the reinforcements from my rock-cutting sword, the front end of the sharp arrow formation surged in strength and became invincible. The enemy cavalry collapsed at the first touch and no one could block the way forward.  For a time, corpses lay all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed. I was so angry that I raised my head and screamed to the sky. Everyone who heard it was heartbroken and fell to the ground dead.  Suddenly, there was a loud killing sound from behind, and two thousand iron cavalry finally caught up.  At this moment, even the brave and invincible Tower of Babel, the perseverant Huo Jiheng, and the war-fighting Xiahou who looked down upon the world were exhausted, but a feeling of despair surged in their hearts.As soon as the pressure was relieved, it turned out that he had broken out of the enemy's siege.  The three of them were in high spirits and rekindled their hope of escape. They didn't know where they came from, but they had the strength to dive into the back of the hill a hundred steps away in a few leaps.  I followed closely behind the three of them, but I calmly used my charging crossbow to mow down all the enemy cavalry who dared to pursue me within two hundred paces. I shot all the arrow boxes before using my Qinggong skills and disappeared without a trace in an instant.  This scene left the enemy stunned. They couldn't believe that there were such bold and arrogant people in the world who dared to ignore two thousand cavalry and cut off the rear alone.  ¡ñ¡ñ¡ñ The ground is covered with white snow, dry and hard, making a rustling sound underfoot.  The leaves on the trees have completely fallen off, and a stream of crystal clear ice hangs from the branches. Behind this wilderness is a winding stream that is half frozen and half flowing, making a pleasant sound.  A gust of north wind blows, and the jackdaws suddenly break away from the branches and flutter in the air, adding to the desolation.  Xiahou Yiguan, Huo Jiheng and Babel ran all the way to the stream. They no longer had any strength and fell straight to the ground motionless. Only I could stand aside and stand guard with my sword as if nothing had happened.  After a long while, Xia Houguang looked up at the gray sky and said depressedly: "I'm sorry. I regret that I didn't listen to your advice last night and caused the collective sacrifice of the Ghostface Guards." As soon as he said this, Huo Jiheng and Babel both looked at me strangely.  It was obvious that I had just realized that this Grimace Guard was actually a fake.  I had known that I couldn¡¯t hide it from Xia Hou¡¯s usual eyes. After all, there are only a handful of people in the world who are far more powerful than the three of them. The only one who willingly disguises himself and goes with me to protect me is me.  I smiled bitterly and said: "Tell me what it did. It's important to save your life right now! Hey, I still can't guess who the enemy commander is. That guy is also vicious and makes people hate him to the very core. Well, do you know that it will be easier if you tell me and listen?"  I'll pay him a visit someday to ask for his power to serve as a chamber pot for a few days!" Babel groaned, clearly agreeing with my statement.  Huo Jiheng, on the other hand, was so drowsy and weak that it was very difficult to even speak, so he simply shut up and remained silent while using his luck to heal his bruised body.  Xia Hou always shook his head and said: "I don't know who that bastard is, but I can't escape. He is a powerful person who wants to usurp the position of Governor of the Khan's Mansion. It's not difficult to find him if he follows the clues. Now is not the time to think about revenge. We must do it at dawn."  We must rush to Woniuguan in advance, otherwise we will be surrounded by the enemy again tomorrow morning." After saying this, he paused and tried to stand up and cross his knees before saying without saying anything: "Brother Liu, time is tight, please help us heal our wounds!"  So far, we have not met the enemy's real master. If we are intercepted by them, our current body, which is almost exhausted, will be simply sent to death. Now it depends on whether your "Dark Immortal Demonic Art" is as magical and effective as the rumors."  Cailuo, Huo Jiheng and Babel climbed to the creek in response, both expressing their full support for Xiahou's consistent proposals.  I glared at the three of them angrily and amusedly, then walked over and asked them to sit hand in hand, and then circulated the 120% dark immortal demonic energy.  Together with the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, they finally return to Xiahou's consistent Baihui Point to help them form a perfect circulation circuit.
