My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 580 Giant Monster
"What is it with such a loud voice?!"

In the wind and snow, snowflakes obscured the sight. Even the Mongolian cavalry who ran on the grasslands all year round had difficulty identifying the troops appearing on the opposite side and their numbers in such an environment.

But the huge roar frightened the horses sitting on this team of Mongolian cavalry. They turned around and ran away in the cold wind and heavy snow.

No matter how the cavalry on horseback maneuvered, it was of no avail.

When the sounding arrow shot into the night sky again, a Mongolian cavalryman who fell behind looked back. In the wind and snow, an army of tens of thousands of people was spreading towards this direction.

This place is still more than a hundred miles away from Satila. If we go at the opponent's speed, we can only arrive after dawn, so there is no need to panic the opponent to launch a night attack.

However, when he looked back, the speed of movement seemed slow, but in fact it kept getting closer and closer in his field of vision, as if it was coming in a snowstorm.

"Who still has whistle arrows? Let's send a message!"

The Mongolian cavalry was shouting with Xirong on the grassland. When a running companion took out a whistle arrow from the quiver at his waist and shot it into the night sky, the sound of stirring wind and snow came from behind them.

The Mongolian cavalryman who was lagging behind turned around subconsciously, and saw a flail with an iron chain attached to the head of a mace spinning towards him.

He was Olain who had abandoned the city and fled to Maiti. When I saw him now, his fat figure had completely disappeared, replaced by a giant-like body. The iron armor on his body could not cover his knotted muscles.

"As expected, the other side should want all of us, Da Xia Erlang, to enter the western land, and take advantage of the favorable location, people and people to annihilate our entire army!"

……

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. The commanders of the two armies are Wu Anjun and Li Jing." Xia Houyuan's face was slightly burgundy. Most of the drinks here were wine, or the palace's fine wine, which has a lot of stamina.

Behind him, in the drifting snowflakes, were armies on foot, wearing only leather armor, but no one was affected by this bad weather.

"A newly defeated army doesn't need any generals to go out, just order a battalion of troops!" The general who came out was none other than Le Jin. He did not win any battles in the westward march. Even the siege battle was fought by Xiahou Dun and Xu Huang.

"That's true. I was worrying too much."

"March and retake Satira!"

"The wind and snow are so heavy that it is difficult for the scouts to estimate the specific number of the enemy. A rough count suggests that there are about 10,000 people."

The originally noisy banquet gradually became quiet when they heard about business.

He lowered his head and looked at the blood dripping from the flail, turning into scarlet ice crystals on the ground, and his expression became even more excited.

"Your Majesty, wait a moment while Rong Liang thinks about it."

The flail was not for normal people at all. It was so thick that the man and the horse were knocked to the ground without even letting out a scream.

Zhuge Liang sat on his seat, lowered his feather fan, and looked at the closed palace door in front of him. After a while, he smiled: "Since the barbarians entered the Western Region, this Western land should have been prepared for me, Daxia. . Although Liang doesn't know why they are so hostile, we shouldn't be allowed to advance so smoothly at the moment.

"I don't know where the northern and central troops are right now. The journey there is much farther than ours. At this moment, they may have just crossed the snowy mountains."

His bloodshot eyes turned and scanned the fleeing Eastern cavalry in front. He grinned, and streams of hot white air floated out, rising in the cold wind.

I had long been holding my breath in my heart.

"keep going!"

Moreover, his words put everyone on a high pedestal, and no one had the nerve to compete with him.

As O'Lain's order was issued, these soldiers continued to advance in the face of cold wind and heavy snow, taking every step calmly and firmly.

The flail was swung with a bang, making a popping sound in the air, and O'Lain pointed the flail in the direction of Satira.

"What an arrogant barbarian!" Lu Bu shouted and hit the table with his fist.

Su Chen put down the wine glass, looked at Zhuge Liang, who was sitting alone over there, and turned away from what he had just said. The latter had only drank two glasses of wine, and his thoughts were still clear.

Zhuge Liang stroked his short beard and closed his eyes slightly: "Liang's guess is not bad, and he can also take advantage of the weather, like now."

Everyone looked at Zhuge Liang who was speaking on the alone table on the emperor's side, waiting for him to continue speaking.

Xiahou Dun curled his lips, and then went back and sat down again. The others laughed and held their hands towards Lejin, and then said something like: "Then please trouble Wen Qian to make this trip!", "Hurry up and deal with this group of barbarians and come back. Keep drinking.”

After he finished speaking, there was a fierce knock on the door of the palace, and a soldier outside was heard shouting: "Your Majesty, an army of Western barbarians has appeared outside the city."

Wu Zixun stood up and went over to open the palace door. As he walked, he asked on behalf of the emperor: "How many soldiers and horses are there?"

Most of the time, Su Chen and the generals talked most about the business of the Western Expedition.

Xiahou Dun has a hot temper and may not be good at commanding an army, but his martial arts skills rank high among those present. He was about to walk out of his seat and ask Emperor Su Chen for a fight when someone came out one step ahead of him.

Satira City, Satsuma Palace.

When he heard someone coming to the door, he immediately walked out of his seat and quickly took over Xiahou Dun to take over the battle.

"Speaking of which, when we were on the road, I mentioned that the past few battles in entering the Western world were too smooth. Prime Minister, do you have any ideas? Don't hide them."

The remaining riders looked back and continued galloping away.

The banquet lasted until the middle of the banquet. Everyone just had a few drinks and was not really drunk. After all, it was not the end of the year yet, and it was still in a wartime state.

I drank too much, and it was a bit intoxicating.

Su Chen smiled and raised his glass in salute to the other party. He had always led the troops to fight, and had to take care of everything before he could feel at ease. Now he handed over the other two armies of nearly 200,000 to the hands of Wu Anjun and Li Jing. There is still no news at all, so it is impossible to say that I am not worried.

If Liang leads the army, he will definitely attack halfway in Tianfengling. However, the opponent did not set up an ambush there, even leaving an eyeliner to keep an eye on our army's movements, unless... the plan is very big! "

"Liang thinks that it's not that the opponent doesn't want to set up an ambush in Tianfengling, but that the gains are very small. After all, attacking half way will not be enough."

boom!
boom!
Amidst the spreading footsteps of the army, a chariot stopped under the thick snow. The figure coming down from above strode over, picked up the flail on the ground, and stood like a giant in the snow.

"This kind of power... is so good... Holy Lothar, I like this feeling of violence very much."

Su Chen above didn't want to refute Le Jin's face, so he immediately nodded in agreement.

"The barbarians are provoking you at this time. General Le should pay more attention to them. They may not be able to defeat them head-on, and they may not use the Snow Angel to do any dirty tricks."

"My lord, be careful!"

Le Jin was not a talkative person. He took the order, turned around and walked out of the hall, dragging his armor. Stepping out of the hall door, he took off the iron mask hanging from his waist and put it on his face. His figure quickly disappeared into the dark snowy night. among.

"Keep playing music, keep dancing!"

The door of the palace was closed again. Su Chen didn't want to disturb everyone's interest because of the arrival of a group of barbarians, so he raised his hand and asked the several Satsuma women who had stopped in the middle to continue dancing.

"His Majesty……"

Just as the singing and dancing continued, Zhuge Liang's words came from the solo table on one side.

"... General Le will definitely be defeated if he goes here."

Su Chen, who was watching the singing and dancing, was stunned for a moment, his eyes fell on Zhuge Liang, and his brows couldn't help but frown slightly, "Since the Prime Minister had expected it, why didn't he stop it?"

"Don't you think, Your Majesty, that after entering the western land and winning battles one after another, everyone has become a little arrogant?"

Zhuge Liang said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Furthermore, Your Majesty is also a little arrogant. This is not a good thing for marching and fighting. If I don't stop it, I just want to take advantage of this defeat and give the generals a slap in the face."

Su Chen was aroused by Zhuge Liang's words. The alcohol immediately disappeared from his body, and his whole body recovered a lot.

He was silent for a while: "What the Prime Minister mentioned is... just doing this may put Le Jin in danger." "That's why Liang made it clear to His Majesty."

Su Chen couldn't figure out what he meant. Now that he told Su Chen, it was impossible for Su Chen not to remedy the situation, and Zhuge Liang didn't have to work so hard.

"Prime Minister, when you and Jia Xu came here, did you have your souls exchanged... Why do you feel like you are Jia Wenhe!"

Su Chen wanted to understand the other party's intention, joked, and glanced at the generals present. Most of them had been drinking. There was heavy snow outside, which would definitely have an impact on the generals who had been drinking.

'Then let's call him a strict person who doesn't drink much...'

Thinking about it in his mind, Su Chen's eyes fell on Ma Chao... the person next to him, Pang De, Pang Lingming!

At the beginning of the banquet, the other party, like Le Jin, drank very little and probably didn't like the atmosphere. Moreover, Pang De, who was brought here as a deputy, advanced first.

Although it is not comparable to the advanced strength of people like Lu Bu and Guan Yu, it is still much better than ordinary Chinese generals in martial arts.

Think about it.

He asked Wu Zixun to call Pang De over. The latter saw the emperor's ministers appearing behind him, and his expression was stunned, but he still left the table and followed him to the imperial court.

Hearing that Su Chen was worried, Le Jin asked him to lead a group of flying Qiang cavalry to follow him and raid the formation, which happened to be what he wanted.

"Your Majesty, feel free to eat and drink with the generals. I will go to assist General Le. If you cannot defeat this group of barbarians, Pang De will come to see you."

"No need!" Su Chen waved his hands hastily. In his previous life, he was most afraid of his favorite characters in movies and TV shows. Anyone who said such bold words would basically not survive the next episode.

"General, just go and help. If the wind and snow affect us, we will retreat to the city. Don't fight to the death!"

"Yes!"

Pang De's face was serious. Even if Su Chen tried to persuade him a few words, he still had the aura of refusing to retreat. He held up his hands and quickly walked around to the palace door from one side and left.

Just as Pang De left the palace of the Satsuma people, went to the camp where the flying Qiang cavalry was stationed in the city, and ordered a thousand cavalry to go to the west city gate. At the same time, a battalion of the Qingzhou Army, about two thousand people, followed Le Jin and rushed to the city gate. forward.

He asked the Xiliang soldiers on duty on the city tower to lower themselves and open the city gate. After lowering the drawbridge, he raised his whip and leaped on his horse, shouting: "Come out of the city with me to fight!"

Also coming out together was the Mongolian cavalry team from before.

They were patrolling outside and saw their companions being killed. They knew the direction of the other party so they could lead Lejin in the wind and snow.

The Qingzhou soldiers who followed them out of the city were thickly dressed. The inner layer of the leather armor was sewn with wool, and there was a cotton jacket on the outside. These were standard equipment for winter combat, and they even wore leather gloves on their hands.

After leaving the city, the wind and snow in the wilderness became more violent, and the strong wind blew the snowflakes so hard that it was difficult to open one's eyes.

More than thirty miles away from the west gate of Satilasi, Le Jin observed the surroundings through the iron-faced eye sockets. Several Mongolian cavalry on both sides were listening with their eyes closed. They put aside the roar of the wind and snow and looked for other sources of sounds.

"In that direction!" When one Mongolian cavalry opened his eyes and pointed to the southwest with a scimitar, another Mongolian cavalry also opened his eyes and shouted: "They are coming!"

next second.

Amidst the whining and roaring sound of the wind and snow, there was gradually a dull sound of footsteps, and in front of the white snow, there were silhouettes of figures.

Following this, the dull sound of footsteps turned into a huge rumbling vibration, making a sound that only occurred when the cavalry was running forward.

The soldiers of the Qingzhou Army who followed had well-trained iron shields set up and poked out of the forest of guns. Archers and crossbowmen stood behind the shields, aiming at the wind and snow ahead.

The rumbling sound of stampedes narrowed the distance, and in the extremely low visibility line of sight, hundreds of figures appeared first, rushing towards this side.

These people were tall and strong, with disheveled hair, wearing only simple leather armor, and ran wildly with their feet open.

Le Jin, who was wearing an iron mask on horseback, shot an arrow and shouted to the surrounding soldiers: "Get ready!"

The arrow flew forward, submerged in the wind and snow, and just as Le Jin said "get ready", the arrow shot into the skin and flesh of a Western soldier.

However, the soldier did not fall down. He just tore off the feather arrow stuck in his chest along with his skin and flesh, and then rushed to the front row with a long-handled knife.

The arrow cut through the wind and snow, losing its accuracy and only splashing sporadic blood.

"Roar!"

The tall Western soldier who rushed at the front was hit by two more arrows. He suddenly let out a savage roar, holding a long-handled knife with both arms and raising it high. The moment he approached the first row of the Qingzhou Army here, a heavy The blade of the sword hit the shield in front of him hard, and then he was nailed into a hedgehog by the arrow.

After that, more Western soldiers rushed in with long knives. The heavy blades struck the shields, or clashed with the spears. They clashed and sparked sparks.

Although the Qingzhou Army is small in number, with only one battalion of 2,000 men, they are an army fed by many battles. Even though many new soldiers have come in over the years, they are led by veterans and their combat effectiveness has not weakened.

Facing the charge of ten thousand people, they were not afraid at all. Under the command and shouts of the generals and governor cavalry at all levels, the spears stabbed forward rhythmically behind the shields.

puff-

In this snowy night, the sound was like a forest of spears piercing into the flesh, and the Western barbarian soldiers who rushed over were not afraid of death, and even seemed to feel no pain. Despite the dense spears, even if their bodies were penetrated , still rushing forward crazily.

For a moment, the front row's front lines intertwined, all kinds of killings, arrows were mixed, and hoarse shouts were heard.

“Don’t panic, fill the gaps layer by layer!”

Le Jin commanded on horseback for a while. He didn't know if he was a little anxious. Thinking that he had not won the battle before, he immediately asked Xianden camp to gather around him.

When ordering troops, he only brought two hundred advance soldiers with him.

At present, the opponent's army is huge in number. It is impossible to repel the opponent by resisting. The only way is to break out and kill them!
Just like he had done countless times before.

"It's windy and snowy today, which is not good for us, and it's not good for the barbarians over there!"

Le Jin took the iron spear handed over by his own soldiers. This was a meteorite iron spear specially made for him by Su Chen. It had not seen any blood since he became a soldier.

Without thinking too much at the moment, he tore off a cloth from his cloak and asked the soldiers to help tie the handle of the gun to his palm. He also bit it with his teeth and pulled it tightly.

Then, with the horse uniform clipped on, the horse scooted its hooves and rushed out of the rear formation, followed closely by the two hundred advance soldiers behind it.

He bypassed the fighting front line, dodged a few people who were attacking from the barbarian side, ran in an arc across the field, and shouted: "Follow me!"

At the same time as the words resounded, he took the lead and danced with his horse and spear into the opponent's side.

The shadow of the gun waved away in the wind and snow, picking up pieces of flesh and blood on the necks and chests of these barbarians who were not afraid of life and death.

The first soldiers who followed were all fierce soldiers trained by Le Jin himself. They had long been accustomed to such battles.

Just as Le Jin charged into the opponent's tens of thousands of troops, looking for the opponent's big banner, the sound of breaking through the air came over. Le Jin jumped off the horse immediately, and a dark iron chain was waving in his sight. , the iron ball covered with spikes swept across the air.

boom!
The standing war horse let out a mournful cry when it came into contact, and instantly flew out in a bloody mess. It kicked its hooves in the air and stopped moving.

In the wind and snow, a huge figure waved his arms, pushing aside the crowds around him, and then punched the head of the war horse ridden by the advance soldier, knocking the whole horse and all the people on its back. He was knocked to the ground, and before the soldier could get up, he was trampled to death with a foot on his chest.

On that huge body, a ring of gray-white plush embedded in the collar swayed gently in the wind, and the bare arms were covered with knotted muscles, full of explosive power.

The other party's eyes were also looking at Le Jin at this time, dragging the chain wrapped around his arm, and moving forward, he pressed forward like an overwhelming force.

"General Dongfang, my name is O'Lain!"

His voice sounded like thunder.
