Chapter 241 It is simply the rebirth of General Qin Kaiyun!
As soon as the two sides fought, Huo Yunying realized a very cruel fact.
Even if they fight alone, the combat effectiveness of Jin soldiers is higher than that of these green forest people!
Although these green forest men seem to be big and round, use all kinds of strange weapons, and have a reputation among the people for their superb martial arts skills, in fact they are really useless against veterans who have been trained in military battles.
Not on the same level.
The spear is the king of weapons, this is definitely not a lie.
Not only can the spear array produce extremely terrifying effects in military formations, but even in individual combat, the attack range of the spears is enough to defeat most weapons.
An inch long, an inch strong.
Many people think that after a long gun is inserted into the gun, they can only sit back and wait for death, but in front of real veterans, this is obviously nonsense.
You can insert the gun, and the person using the spear can retreat; even if you insert the spear, the weapon in your hand cannot cut the opponent, but the opponent can hit the opponent with the gun body, or retreat, which will cause you to fall into the attack of the spear again.
scope.
Therefore, Zhu Tuo, the judge's pen master, became the first victim.
After the spear pierced his thigh, he lost his combat effectiveness almost instantly. However, the golden soldier was obviously very experienced. He directly raised his left hand forcefully, pressed down with his right hand, and jerked the tip of the spear upward!
The gun body was bent into an arc, and a large amount of flesh and blood came out of the gun tip.
Then, the tip of the spear penetrated Zhu Tuo's chest like a poisonous snake.
"What a stupid gold thief! Fight with them!"
The other green forest heroes all had their eyes broken and were furious, waving the weapons in their hands and rushing forward desperately.
Huo Yunying sighed and could only charge upwards with his long sword.
But the final result can be imagined.
After just a few minutes, Huo Yunying returned to the initial state again.
"These Green Foresters are really pig teammates..."
"I overestimated their fighting power, so I was pushed to the ground by the golden soldiers and beaten."
Recalling the previous battle, Huo Yunying was simply speechless.
In fact, if he fights alone against an elite golden soldier, there is no problem at all. Even if he uses a long sword to fight a long spear, he still has a chance of winning.
But when facing two golden soldiers, things will become very dangerous, and you can only barely protect yourself.
When you encounter more than two golden soldiers, you will basically send them immediately.
Because these golden soldiers have extremely strong fighting skills in military formations, such as marksmanship, all of which are stabbing, dialing and other moves without any pretense. If there are three golden soldiers in one place, they will naturally form a formation, such as three
People surrounded him and stabbed Huo Yunying's chest, back, ribs and other vital parts.
In this case, even if Huo Yunying was very good at fighting, it would be of no use.
After all, there is no such mysterious martial arts in this world. You can't break open monuments or split stones, or you can't cross a river with a reed.
In terms of life and death combat, martial arts masters may not be able to defeat these elites who have fought in countless battles.
What's more, these Green Forest people are not martial arts masters at all.
"However, if you think about it on the bright side, although these green forest people have no fighting ability, they dare to draw their swords against the golden people for the sake of the people. This is already very good..."
Huo Yunying is an optimistic person and likes to think in an optimistic direction in everything.
"Then, the Ranger's goal at this stage is very clear: to find a way to integrate the power of the Green Forest people or the surrounding people, to find a way to kill the scattered golden soldiers who came to plunder, and to save these people.
"If I hadn't appeared as a ranger, the final result would have been that all the people in the Green Forest would have died, and the people would have been burned, killed, plundered, and then driven to attack the city as refugees.
"But now that I am in this small village, maybe I can turn decay into magic, integrate these people, and make the whole situation develop in another direction..."
Huo Yunying felt that she had roughly grasped the goal of this stage, and began to think of other methods.
…
Pingding County.
While Cenqiao Station and the small villages had been invaded by the Jin soldiers, there was no fighting at the Pingding Army.
No wonder Wang Fang feels anxious about his wife and children every day.
If the Pingding Army is also caught in the flames of war, then the Wang Fang will inevitably go to the front line, and perhaps he will not be so anxious.
However, Zhao Haiping was not completely idle. He also organized some training for these soldiers and gradually developed some confidants.
Soon, the fighter plane Zhao Haiping had been waiting for arrived.
…
When the city gate of Pingding County opened, Zhao Haiping rode a fast horse and led the way out of the city.
Wang Fang followed closely behind on a fast horse, and further behind was a cavalry team of nearly a hundred people.
The total number of the Pingding Army was only more than 2,000, and there were probably only three to four hundred cavalry among them. However, this time Zhao Haiping was able to bring a full 100 cavalry troops out for reconnaissance, and he had already taken away one-third of the Pingding Army.
One's family background.
This opportunity does have some elements of coincidence.
Previously, Zhao Haiping had shown excellent combat qualities in the army. Whether it was riding and shooting, marksmanship or swordsmanship, he was among the best in the army.
This kind of performance not only gave him the privilege of being an assassin, but also made him shine in the eyes of the generals of the Pingding Army. In addition, he was also very effective in training other soldiers in daily training, so he was highly regarded.
Pay attention to.
Otherwise, this "hard detective" job would not fall on him.
The so-called hard detective is actually armed reconnaissance.
At this time, the Jin soldiers had surrounded the fortified city of Taiyuan, and outside Taiyuan, there were actually many Jin soldiers scattered around, scouting the enemy's situation, or burning, killing, and looting.
As for Qi Chao, he couldn't sit still at this time.
On the other side of the capital, King Qin's army has already rushed to the rescue. Although Taiyuan's status is not as good as that of the capital, it is indeed the most important nail in the way of the Western Route Army. Therefore, the imperial court also issued an edict, asking nearby troops to go
Rescue Taiyuan.
Of course, a small force like the Pingding Army is not worthy of participating in this level of decision-making, but under the orders of a higher level, the force of more than two thousand people must also play a role in exploring the surrounding enemy situation as much as possible, and for
Then support Taiyuan and be prepared.
And the higher-level general, who had only met Zhao Haiping a few times, actually made such a bold decision: he did not send veterans or veteran generals, but directly handed over the task to Zhao Haiping.
Although the Pingding Army was very puzzled by this appointment, they still gave the greatest support: Zhao Haiping was given a cavalry team of one hundred.
And Wang Fang is naturally among them.
"Brother Zhao, what should we... do?" Wang Fang followed Zhao Haiping on horseback and asked tentatively.
At this time, the cavalry troops did not run at full speed, but conserved their horsepower and rushed to the target location at a not particularly fast speed.
Zhao Haiping was a little surprised: "How to do it? Naturally, we need to explore the enemy's situation and communicate seriously."
Wang Fang coughed twice: "Ahem, Brother Zhao, you don't know something.
"This tough detective is one of the most dangerous jobs! Although the Jin soldiers are besieging Taiyuan at this time, their cavalry come and go like the wind and may appear at any time.
"If we go too far alone and are targeted by the Jin cavalry, we will have no chance of escaping!
"What's more, going to investigate the military situation is a matter of higher authority. Although the Pingding Army cannot refuse, they cannot afford to pay such a high price.
"If these one hundred cavalrymen are left outside, Brother Zhao, not to mention whether the two of us can escape, even if we can escape, I'm afraid we can't expect to go back, we will only fall into the trap of bandits!"
Zhao Haiping frowned slightly, and just as he was about to say something, Wang Fang turned to look at the cavalry brothers behind him.
"Brother Zhao, you see, these brothers basically think the same way.
"So, if something unexpected happens during this investigation, brothers will definitely understand."
Zhao Haiping looked back along Wang Fang's field of vision and saw that the one hundred cavalrymen following him were all downcast and listless.
There are also people who have timidity clearly written on their faces.
Obviously, except for Zhao Haiping who really enjoyed the job of spying, most of the one hundred cavalry behind him did not seem to have left Pingding County.
Wang Fang's thoughts at this time are probably the same as those of these veterans.
A cavalry of a hundred men?
It sounds like a lot, but what is it in front of the Jin's cavalry?
Delivery of food!
If we really encounter the Jin's cavalry team, it's hard to say how many people can escape.
Don't lose your life if the military doesn't detect it then.
And even if some people can return alive, who can bear the responsibility for the loss of dozens of cavalry in the Pingding Army?
This hard investigation was a mission from above, and the Pingding Army had to carry it out. However, if it were carried out without compromise and losses occurred, the Pingding Army would bear the consequences themselves, and they might even be labeled as incompetent in combat...
…
So in this case, half-heartedly is the best choice.
Just wandering around casually, or making up lies, or just looking for any excuse, saying that they encountered golden soldiers and fought with them before retreating.
Even if the officers in the pacification army knew it well, they probably wouldn't say anything more.
After all, the mission is your superior's, but your life is yours.
Zhao Haiping couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
Wang Fang has lived with him for several days, and he already knows him well.
Wang Fang is definitely not a coward. His riding skills and marksmanship are considered good even in Zhao Haiping's eyes. In daily life, when talking about the various measures taken by the court, such as the redemption of Yan Yun, etc.
He was also the first to take action against ridiculous things.
But when it really happened, he became the first to be timid.
Of course, Zhao Haiping also knew that this could not be entirely attributed to Wang Fang's timidity and cowardice.
There is no problem with Wang Fang’s personal quality, so what’s the problem?
It was due to the general environment of the Qi Army.
No matter how brave an individual is, if he is placed in the Qi army, he will immediately collapse without a fight.
Because everyone does not think that this battle can be won, and everyone thinks that this mission will never succeed. And when everyone holds this idea, compared with those who are weak in combat, people with strong martial arts skills
, there won’t be any essential difference, they will all collapse at the first touch.
Under the coercion of the rebels, no matter how high your martial arts skills are, there is no place to use them.
Zhao Haiping sighed softly and said: "Since we have military orders, we must carry them out to the letter.
"Brother, I can understand your thinking.
"But if you think about it again, is it because every soldier thinks like you, and even every general who leads the army thinks like you, that is why our Qi Dynasty has been defeated again and again in the war?"
Wang Fang's expression changed instantly, and he was stunned and speechless for a moment.
Zhao Haiping was not going to give these people a chance to argue, so he flicked the reins directly: "Let's go!"
…
A hundred-man cavalry troop galloped across the ground, raising dust.
But compared to the golden cavalry that surrounded Taiyuan like black clouds over the city, they were nothing more than a small boat in the raging waves. They could be overturned at any time and beaten to pieces.
As they went deeper and deeper into the dangerous area, the faces of Wang Fang and many of the cavalry became paler and paler.
However, under the leadership of Zhao Haiping, they did not dare to leave the team without authorization. They could only grit their teeth and follow closely, and kept praying that it was best not to encounter the large army of the Jin people.
"Our general's luck shouldn't be too bad, right?"
Many cavalrymen should have such thoughts.
But then they remembered that Zhao Haiping was just a small soldier but was chosen to carry out such a dangerous mission, and they felt that the general's luck was unlikely to be counted on.
When they came to a high slope, Zhao Haiping put up a pergola with his hands to block the sun and looked at an official road in the distance.
This was the target of his investigation this time, the official road from Shouyang to Yuci.
This section of the road is the only way to Taiyuan. If the enemy situation on this section of the road is not clear, then the army going to rescue Taiyuan in the future will easily be ambushed here, or even be annihilated.
But at this time, there were constant Jin cavalry coming and going on the road, which made other people watch in horror.
Since it is an important transportation thoroughfare, the Jin people naturally know the importance of this place.
There are definitely a lot of troops.
Wang Fang was already frightened at this time. On this hill, he even wanted to bend down slightly and lie on the horse to reduce the probability of being discovered.
"Brother Zhao, it's almost done!
"We have arrived at the front line of Shouyang and Yuci, and the investigation mission has been completed. If we don't leave, we will really encounter the Jin's cavalry team, which will be in trouble!"
Zhao Haiping was silent for a moment and asked: "Then let me ask you, if the superior officer asks after you go back, how many Jin soldiers are there on this line? Where are they stationed? How are they patrolled and alerted? How are the camps arranged?
?How do you want to answer?"
Wang Fang couldn't help but was speechless: "This..."
Obviously, he couldn't answer any of these questions.
But he immediately said: "But Brother Zhao, these problems are not something that a mere hundred of us can investigate clearly! Is it possible that we still have to go and see the Jin man's camp?"
Unexpectedly, Zhao Haiping nodded directly: "I do think so!
"Follow me, let's go to the Jinren's Yuci camp to have a look!"
After saying that, he turned the horse's head and ran down the mountain.
Wang Fang and many other cavalrymen turned pale with fright.
Go to the Jinren’s camp?
This is not how you seek death!
But Zhao Haiping has already taken the lead, and they all know each other. If they escape at this time, they will not be able to communicate at all, and they may even be punished for escaping from battle...
After thinking about it, these people could only grit their teeth and follow suit.
"Brother Zhao, please think about it again. The Yuci camp of the Jin people is not a place we can go to... We only have a hundred people...
"If we encounter the Jin's cavalry, we...
"I……"
Wang Fang was trying to persuade Zhao Haiping, but stopped midway through his words.
All the rest of the words were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them out anymore.
Because before his eyes, an extremely terrifying scene appeared, which made his expression freeze on his face.
Sure enough, a Jin cavalry squad appeared in front.
The number of people is about two hundred!
When Zhao Haiping and others saw Jin Bing, Jin Bing naturally also saw them.
The two sides faced off, both a little confused.
For the cavalry led by Zhao Haiping, they had been praying not to encounter Jin soldiers along the way, but when they encountered them at this time, most of them were not mentally prepared; as for the Jin soldiers, they had already
I have become accustomed to moving around this area freely, but I never expected that I would actually encounter the Qi Dynasty's army.
Therefore, both sides don't know what to do.
Wang Fang looked at Zhao Haiping with a pale face.
"Run...run...you can't beat..."
There is no big problem with Wang Fang's judgment.
This Jin cavalry team has more than 200 people, more than double their number.
Not only that, the Jin people's war horses were inherently better than the Qi Dynasty's war horses, and the overall combat quality of the cavalry was probably higher than that of the Qi army.
If we start fighting under such circumstances, so what if we can avoid falling behind?
This place is too far away from Qi Jun’s position, and too close to Jin Bing’s position!
If they get into a fight, they may be discovered by other golden soldiers soon. By then it will be too late to run away, and the whole army will have to be annihilated!
But even if you run away at this time, you may have to pay a heavy price.
Again, the golden man's horse is better and can run faster.
In the rout, if the Jin came to chase them, how many of these hundred-man cavalry could escape?
Moreover, there is another very important factor at this time, which is that the enemy's situation is unknown.
Who knows whether this is a lone team of Jin soldiers, a regular patrol team, or the vanguard of a large force?
If there are more golden soldiers in the rear, even if you rush in and win, you will still be seeking death.
Zhao Haiping held up the spear and said calmly: "I want to give a speech now to boost morale, but it seems a little too late."
Wang Fang grimaced: "Brother Zhao, why are you still telling jokes! How can you inspire morale? At this time, everyone should run for their lives according to their own abilities!
"If this is really the vanguard of the Jin people, then there will definitely be a large force following behind. The hundred of us are not even enough to fill their teeth!"
Zhao Haiping shook his head: "No, they will definitely not be the vanguard of the Jin people.
"The formation is loose with many flaws, and the generals leading it don't look very strong, so they shouldn't be elites.
"In this battle, if you advance, you will have a way to survive. If you retreat, you will die!"
Wang Fang and the cavalry behind him thought they had heard wrongly.
"Brother Zhao! Are you obsessed? Even if you want to kill the golden dog, you have to consider your own life first...Brother Zhao!"
Before they could finish their words, they saw Zhao Haiping riding alone and rushing towards the team of golden soldiers!
Wang Fang and the other cavalrymen all froze, not knowing what Zhao Haiping was thinking about.
If you hold it in your mouth like this, how can you possibly defeat General Qin Kaiyun and ride alone in the midst of thousands of troops to kill the enemy general?
Zhao Haiping, on the other hand, told them with practical actions that, sorry, I can really do it.
Because I have practiced before!
…
As the horses galloped, Zhao Haiping could clearly see the details of the appearance of these golden soldiers.
The hesitation, hesitation, shock...all the details on their faces are clearly revealed.
"It turns out that you are also living people.
"I thought you were really some devils who eat people without blinking an eye.
"But, why do you do things that animals do when you are obviously made of flesh and blood?"
Zhao Haiping's face showed a burning murderous intent. Although he had not actually seen the tragic situation of the refugees being driven by the Jin people to attack the city, he had heard too many similar things.
Therefore, killing these people will naturally not cause any psychological burden.
The formation of the Jin cavalry is not uniform. In fact, this barbaric army has nothing particularly powerful in terms of tactics. The combat effectiveness they are proud of mainly comes from their bravery in daring to use their lives to fight against enemies.
In the battle to climb the city, the Jin soldiers went forward one after another and never retreated;
In field battles, the Jin people's iron pagoda prides itself on never retreating.
But once they encounter another powerful army that is as brave as them and has certain tactics, this kind of bravery will become meaningless.
By that time, the Jin people collapsed and were defeated like a mountain.
Zhao Haiping's vision swept over the flaws of these golden soldiers and quickly found a breakthrough.
Among these criss-crossing breaches, there are also people who look like generals, who have become his targets.
"kill!"
The Jin people finally reacted, and a team of more than 200 cavalrymen rushed over like a tide, trying to engulf Zhao Haiping.
In Zhao Haiping's eyes, although the tide is flowing, the flaws still exist.
He did not rush directly into the military formation, but took a slight detour, just as Taizu Sheng once taught him, trying his best not to face too many enemies at the same time.
Then, he raised his spear and stabbed one of the young Jin generals!
In a hurry, the young Jin man also thrust his spear at him, but Zhao Haiping made a clean change of move, and the gun body swung out in a perfect arc, directly deflecting his spear.
Immediately afterwards, he stabbed with his gun!
The tip of the gun penetrated the armor, and then Zhao Haiping pressed his right hand, raised his left hand, and bent the gun barrel into a tight arc, directly knocking the young Jin soldier off his horse!
Before other Jin men came around, Zhao Haiping had already moved away from him.
"good!"
Only then did the Qi soldiers in the distance react and cheered in unison.
And Wang Fang finally gritted his teeth and rode forward.
Under his leadership, the other cavalrymen also quickly stepped forward and pounced on the golden soldiers.
However, before they had time to fight these golden soldiers to the death, unimaginable things happened one after another before their eyes.
After Zhao Haiping beat his horse to distance, he first stabbed to death a pursuing Jin cavalry with his carbine, then turned his horse's head, rushed straight into the void of the two hundred cavalry, and once again provoked a Jin cavalry.
The young general!
Wang Fang was stunned.
On weekdays, he often joked with Zhao Haiping and talked about world affairs.
I even feel that I am pretty good at riding and shooting. Even if I am a little worse than Brother Zhao, there should not be a huge gap.
However, now I realize that this is not even close...
This Brother Zhao is simply the reincarnation of General Qin Kaiyun!
