The Han army led by Liu Xiu engaged in a melee in the woods with an enemy that was several times their own. The two sides were in a chaotic mess, and it was difficult to tell the north, south, east, and west. People had only one idea left, which was to kill all the enemies in front of them.
This battle was fought fiercely, and both sides suffered heavy casualties. The more than 2,000 Han troops under Liu Xiu's command have suffered no less than 2,000 casualties so far. Even the red eyebrow army with more than 10,000 soldiers has suffered more than 5,000 casualties.
.
Among the Han army, the county soldiers were weak in combat power, but in critical moments, they also showed strong fighting power. As for the Forbidden Army and the Yulin Army, although they were small in number, they were powerful.
Liu Xiu was ambushed by the Red Eyebrow Army. Similarly, Jia Fu and Wang Liang were also ambushed by the Red Eyebrow Army. However, Jia Fu, Wang Liang and others had a large number of troops, and the Red Eyebrow Army was also ambushed by them.
It's hard to take advantage.
Let's talk about Liu Xiu. He pulled Xu Xiling and rushed left and right. The number of enemies around him was getting bigger and bigger, but his own soldiers were getting smaller and smaller.
Just when Liu Xiu was killing the swarming enemy troops with all his strength, he suddenly heard several cold arrows flying towards him.
Liu Xiu reacted very quickly, rolling to the side on the spot, and a series of crossbow arrows were nailed to the ground. Immediately afterwards, several red-browed soldiers holding long swords rushed towards Liu Xiu.
These red-browed soldiers were dressed differently from ordinary red-browed soldiers. They were all dressed in black clothes, black trousers, holding swords, and their eyebrows were not painted red.
One of them came to Liu Xiu and stabbed him without saying a word. Liu Xiu swung his sword outwards, and with a clang, the sword bounced away with a crisp sound. Liu Xiu then struck back with his sword.
Slash the opponent's neck instead.
The man in black retreated, and while he dodged Liu Xiu's counterattack, another man in black came closer to Liu Xiu, with his sword pointed directly between Liu Xiu's eyebrows.
Liu Xiu dodged to the side and swung his sword to fight back. The man in black retreated, and another man in black immediately pounced on him.
These men in black were not only highly skilled in martial arts, agile in movement, but also skilled in coordination. Every move they made was a fatal move. Liu Xiu exchanged a few moves with them, and felt familiar in his heart. He secretly said: It's Si Ah Shi.
scholar!
In the past, Liu Xiu had fought against the Si'a Death Soldiers, and he had some understanding of the Si'a Death Soldiers' fighting methods. The men in black in front of him were almost exactly the same as the Si'a Death Soldiers he had met in Luoyang.
It is not surprising that the dead soldiers of Si'a are hiding among this red eyebrow army. According to Hua Feiyan's investigation, the leader of Si'a is Mo Yan. Mo Yan is now the national advisor of the red eyebrow army. He sent his men to
It is entirely possible for Hanoi to assist this branch of the Red Eyebrow Army.
After determining the identity of the other party, Liu Xiu was extremely cautious.
There are not many people in black, only six of them, but each of their attacks is like thunder. If they fail to dodge or parry, they will be seriously injured even if they are not killed.
Liu Xiu had been fighting for a long time, and his physical strength was severely exhausted. Now he had six Si'a dead soldiers on his own. He gradually began to be unable to hold on, and was forced to retreat continuously by the opponent's fierce attacks one after another.
He gritted his teeth secretly and deliberately bought a loophole.
Seeing an opportunity, a man in black on the opposite side attacked Liu Xiu like a mad dog and struck Liu Xiu's heart with a sword. Liu Xiu dodged a little slowly, then he heard a sound of sand, and the sword edge came from under his armpit.
The stabbing made a tear in his clothes, and blood flowed out from the tear in his clothes.
Liu Xiu retracted his arm and pinned the opponent's sword tightly. Just as the opponent was about to draw the sword with all his strength, he then stabbed the opponent's abdomen with his sword.
The edge of the Red Sky Sword poked out from the opponent's lower back. Seeing this, another man in black roared, stepped forward, and stabbed Liu Xiu in the chest. Liu Xiu was about to be pierced through the black man in the lower abdomen.
The man in black pulled the man in front of him, using the body of the man in black to help him block the opponent's sword. The man in black's eyes flashed as he drew the sword, and he hurriedly sheathed the sword. At this moment, Liu Xiu's waist
With a twist, he kicked out from the side and hit the opponent in the chest.
The man in black groaned, flew backwards, and fell two meters away with a pop. He was lying on the ground, his chest heaving, and then he spit out blood with a loud sound.
Liu Xiu had just knocked down two men in black when he heard the evil wind behind him and instinctively bent forward.
Sha! A long sword swept across his head. Before Liu Xiu could straighten up, two more sabers stabbed at him from his left and right sides.
Liu Xiu didn't have time to think carefully. He curled up and rolled forward, narrowly dodging the two swords.
The remaining four men in black continued to besiege Liu Xiu, Xu Ying, and Xu Fei rushed out from the nearby woods, blocked the four men in black, and shouted without looking back: "Your Majesty, leave quickly.
!”
Liu Xiu gasped rapidly, and beads of sweat dripped down the tip of his nose and chin. He held the sword in one hand and the wound under his armpit in the other, and said to Xu Ying and Xu Fei: "Let me do whatever I want.
Walk!"
Xu Ying and Xu Fei didn't have time to talk. The two of them and the four men in black fought quickly and fought together.
The man in black who was kicked down by Liu Xiu crawled a distance to the side, leaned on a tree, and slowly sat up. At the same time, he picked up a crossbow, pointed it at Liu Xiu, and was about to release it.
arrow.
As a result, before his fingers had time to pull the crossbow's hanging knife, a sap hit him from the side and hit him on the top of his head, and Xu Xiling swung out a stick.
Bang! The force of this stick was so strong that it broke even the thick stick. The man in black didn't even say a word, and immediately fell to the ground, his eyes wide open, and blood gurgling down the top of his head.
, his limbs were twitching, he was exhaling more and less inhaling, and he looked like he was going to die.
Xu Xiling is not a wealthy lady with no power, but a proud disciple of the Taoist master Mr. Yichen. In terms of skill, even if she is not as good as Si'a Shishi, she is not far behind.
It's just that Xu Xiling has never advocated force and looked down on it. Mr. Yichen has taught his disciples since they were young that as a woman, if you have to rely on using a sword to solve problems, it is inferior.
Therefore, most of the disciples taught by Mr. Yichen are as charming as Xu Xiling and Xi Cheying.
At this time, in order to help Liu Xiu, Xu Xiling used all his strength. This sap directly smashed the skull of the man in black, killing him on the spot.
Liu Xiu heard the commotion and glanced over to Xu Xiling. When she saw Xu Xiling holding half a wooden stick and the body of the man in black lying at her feet, she immediately understood what was going on. Liu Xiu didn't say anything more.
He nodded to her, raised his sword and rushed towards the four men in black who were fighting Xu Ying and Xu Fei.
With the help of Xu Ying and Xu Fei, Liu Xiu's pressure was greatly reduced. The remaining four Si'a dead soldiers did not hold out for long, and were all killed by Liu Xiu, Xu Ying and Xu Fei's swords.
After getting rid of these dead soldiers, Liu Xiu and others all breathed a long sigh of relief. They leaned on the tree trunks and panted heavily.
After the beating, Liu Xiu, Xu Ying, and Xu Fei were all as bloody as blood. The sweat dripping from their heads and bodies was not transparent, but bright red.
Just as they were taking advantage of this short interval to rest, more than a dozen men in black rustled out from the nearby woods, and among these dozen men in black, there was a
Alien, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi.
This middle-aged man, holding a sword in his left hand, with the sword still unsheathed, approached Liu Xiu step by step. At the same time, he raised the corners of his mouth and said word by word: "Liu Xiu!"
Xu Ying and Xu Fei both had a flash of cold light in their eyes, and both shouted: "Bold!" wavv
The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi ignored Xu Ying and Xu Fei, and didn't even look at the two of them. His eyes kept falling on Liu Xiu, and said faintly: "Liu Xiu, you are really lucky. Our people have been there again and again.
It's folded in your hand. Once in Luoyang, it's the same as practicing martial arts."
Hearing this, Liu Xiu's thoughts changed, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi replied lightly: "Guan Ying!"
His voice was not loud, but when Xu Ying, Xu Fei and even Xu Xiling heard it, they all took a breath. Si'a can be divided into four parts, each of which is responsible for four leaders. These four leaders can also be called
He is the fourth coach of Si Ah Middle School.
They are Ruan Xiu, Tian Xi, Guan Ying and Qi Zhong.
Now this middle-aged man in Tsing Yi calls himself Guan Ying, so he is one of the four leaders of Si'a. Liu Xiu also did not expect that Guan Ying, one of the leaders of Si'a, would actually be in this branch of the Red Eyebrow Army.
He looked at Guan Ying intently and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Guan."
"It sounds like you know who I am."
Liu Xiu cheered up, stood up slowly, looked calm, and said with a half-smile: "Ruan Xiu, Tian Xi, Guan Ying, and Qi Zhong are the four leaders of Si'a and the four instructors of Si'a. They have taught a large group of skills.
Mr. Guan, a warrior who is strong but looks down on life and death, is extremely meritorious!"
Hearing these mocking words, the men in black around Guan Ying all looked fiercely in their eyes, glaring at Liu Xiu angrily, as if they wanted to eat him alive.
Guan Ying looked up and smiled. When he met Liu Xiu's mocking gaze, he said quietly: "Today, I will take your head back to Chang'an!"
"Guan Ying, you have such a strong tone!" Xu Ying roared angrily, stepped forward, and swept his sword towards Guan Ying's neck. Guan Ying seemed not to have seen Xu Ying's sword attack.
When the sword edge was less than half a foot away from his neck, his right arm suddenly swayed and the sword was drawn out. A cold light suddenly appeared in the air, and then there was a crisp clang sound, and the swords collided with each other.
A ball of sparks comes out.
At this moment, Xuying felt an overwhelming force coming towards him. He put his feet on the ground and slid backwards. He slid one meter away before he stopped, and the hand holding the sword was jerking.
He was shivering non-stop.
Guan Ying still didn't look at Xu Ying. He held his sword and continued to walk towards Liu Xiu unhurriedly. But when passing by Xu Ying, he said lightly: "A disciple of Xu Ying's generation,
Even if your uncle, master, or uncle sees me, you must be polite."
There was no need to fight again, just one exchange of moves, and the strong sense of oppression radiating from the opponent's body made Xuying know clearly that he was no match for Guan Ying anyway.
If Guan Ying came for someone else, Xuying would definitely run away without looking back, but now Guan Ying came for Liu Xiu, Xuying couldn't run away, even if he knew he was defeated, he would try his best
, covering Liu Xiu’s departure.
He handed the sword from his numb right hand to his left hand, then gave a loud shout and rushed towards Guan Ying with the sword again. Guan Ying did not look back, but swung the sword backwards.
His moves seemed random, but in Xuying's eyes, they were as fast as lightning.
He bent down with all his strength and dodged Guan Ying's return sword, but he didn't know that it was just a feint from Guan Ying. The sword spun in a circle on his palm, the blade pointed downwards, and stabbed hard at the back of Xuying's neck.
