Chapter 1580: Confrontation across the river, each showing off its strengths

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 The fire wave, the scorching fire wave, under the influence of the strong south wind, blew the fire in the withered grassland within a few dozen steps toward the north, while Tuoba Yi and his men had already retreated.

After evacuating outside the pasture, even though the fire was heading north now, no one could predict when the wind direction would suddenly change like the north wind turned south just now. Only when we got here could we be considered truly safe.

They took off their helmets one by one and showed military etiquette to the more than 200 Yan Army soldiers in the fire scene. Tuoba Yi even began to sing a requiem to comfort the souls of these enemy soldiers. They did not

We know each other, and there is no hatred. The reason why we fight to the death is just because our positions are opposite. But a heroic death in battle will be respected even by the enemy, just like now.

Tuoba Yi's singing finally ended. The low, monotonous notes ended with a burst of shouts from the Tuoba tribe's wolf knights. The fire gradually became smaller and extinguished, and the Yellow River, which was still turbulent just now, also gradually

The ground became calm, and in the smoke, one could see that various groups of Wei cavalry rushing from all directions had gathered on the south bank of the Yellow River, gathering under Tuoba Gui's wolf-headed banner. He waved his hand easily and looked at

The lost Murong Lin on the other side had an evil sneer on his lips: "Retract the troops and set up camp."

Murong Lin sat on his horse in despair. For half an hour, he sat like this without saying a word. The north bank of the Yellow River fell into a deathly silence. All the Yan army officers and men stared blankly.

Murong Lin, many people shed tears silently, looking at the charred corpses on the south bank and the swollen corpses that occasionally surfaced on the river, they couldn't say a word.

Tuoba Gui rode his horse and walked slowly, escorted by hundreds of cavalrymen including Tuoba Yi. In the charred fire field, the smell of barbecue was so nauseating that the fierce Wei cavalry could not help but frown.

He covered his nose, but there was no expression on Tuoba Gui's face. He just walked to the bank of the river, looked at Murong Lin opposite, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, King Zhao, after saying goodbye, I didn't expect to see you so soon.

We have met. You must have missed me as a brother so much that you would have traveled thousands of miles to meet me."

Murong Lin came back to his senses from the great sadness and disappointment. He sat upright on the horse, gritted his teeth, and said with murderous intent in his eyes: "Tuoba Gui, don't be complacent. It's just your luck this time.

You just escaped this disaster, you won’t be so lucky next time!”

Tuoba Gui smiled slightly: "Really? Let's just wait and see, but I think it is necessary to remind you that you think this is luck, but in my opinion, this is God's will. I, the Tuoba clan, how many

After hundreds of years of countless hardships, blood and tears, we are able to rise from the ashes again and again from the edge of almost destruction. Even if we are once destroyed by our enemies, we can still leave seeds behind and finally rise again. Is this just luck?

?Murong Lin, this is the Immortal God. His care for our Tuoba clan is a reward for our sincere respect to the God for thousands of years. It is protected by the heroic spirits of our Tuoba ancestors. This is the destiny of destiny.

You and other human beings can resist it."

Murong Lin said bitterly: "It's just good luck once. I don't believe you can be so lucky forever."

Tuoba Gui shook his head: "Murong Lin, I have to admit that your action this time was almost perfect. The light cavalry assault bypassed the eyeliner I arranged and suddenly appeared at the Mosong Ferry. If I hadn't suddenly felt a little...

Something is wrong. If you come here to inspect, you may succeed. Considering that you and I have cooperated before, I will give you a favor this time and return these soldiers of yours to you."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and his subordinates on one side pushed out more than forty prisoners of the Yan army who had been stripped of their armor and left in only their single clothes. Most of them were sergeants who had just landed ashore. They saw that the situation was wrong and did not enter the pasture. They had nowhere to go afterward.

Only a dozen Yan soldiers who fell into the water escaped, and only a dozen Yan soldiers who fell into the water swam to the shore and became prisoners due to good luck. These people were all dejected. They had been there long before the expedition.

After hearing too many propaganda about the bloodthirsty and murderous prairie barbarians, I thought they must have no physiology, but I didn't expect that I could actually save my life. Overjoyed, they all kowtowed and thanked loudly.

Three broken boats that had washed up on the shore and were not completely burned carried the more than forty prisoners back to the north shore. Murong Lin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he picked up his big bow and pointed it at the man who had just jumped off the boat.

The officer fired an arrow, and before the man's smile dissipated, an arrow penetrated his chest and he fell to the ground. The troops around Murong Lin also followed suit, and the sound of bow strings vibrating one after another echoed with the release of the prisoners.

There were screams, and soon, silence returned to the shore.

Murong Lin put down the big bow in his hand, with a murderous look on his face, and shouted to the silent soldiers around him: "Do you see, this is what happens when you run away from the battle and surrender to the enemy. We, Murong Dayan's soldiers, can only break

A hero who is the leader must not be a coward who is afraid of death. If I am captured, you can kill me like this!"

The soldiers of the Yan Army raised their heads one by one, and Murong Lin's voice echoed in their ears: "Today, you performed very well. These days, you have been following me in the grassland and it has been very hard. Today we did not succeed.

, it’s not your responsibility, it’s God who made a joke on us, but it’s nothing. It just allows Tuoba Gui to live for two more days. All the soldiers who follow this king will be counted as one for their great achievements and will be given a first-level knighthood.

All rewards will be distributed personally by the king after he returns to the army."

These words made all the officers and soldiers of the Yan Army suddenly happy, and everyone cheered: "A thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand thousand years old!"

Murong Lin looked at Tuoba Gui opposite him coldly: "Tuoba Gui, we will see each other every day for a while. You'd better let your Princess Helan continue to pray for your eternal life God's blessing every day and don't let us find a way to cross the river.

When the opportunity comes, our old and new grudges will be repaid to you together!"

Tuoba Gui's eyes flashed coldly: "Then don't bother King Zhao. You should think carefully about how to explain this failure to your brother the prince and your uncle De Huang."

As he spoke, he turned his horse's head and whispered to Tuoba Yi on the side: "Set up camp quickly and send out cavalry to patrol the river. Don't give the Yan army any opportunity to take advantage of it. Also, notify all the tribes in the east of the river.

Withdraw to Hetao from Wuyuan Ferry and don't give Murong Lin the chance to kill in revenge."

He Lanmin's voice sounded calmly: "Congratulations to my king, you have once again been favored by the gods. I believe that this kind of favor will accompany you throughout your life."
