My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 596: Violent General Xu Huang
As night falls, the mountains stretch over and over, and among the barren mountains and ridges, there are spots of firelight. Figures gather around the burning bonfire, eating dry food and whispering.

Two flags painted with centaurs and giant axes were leaning against the tree trunks, reflecting the firelight, and the golden lines on them looked extremely eye-catching.

In front of the largest bonfire, the commanders of the two armies, Galahad and Saihu, were stationed here to rest.

Galahad is tall and thin, with a short beard on his chin, wearing half-covered armor, and a sharp knight's sword quietly in the scabbard, lying flat at his feet. When talking about the Seles people , his expression made the opposite Sai Hu feel a ferocious aura that was not commensurate with the opponent's figure.

"Even if Selis is on guard, it can't guard against hundreds of miles of supply lines. Besides, it's not just us, Geraint and his legion have also prepared a surprise for the emperor of Selis."

Crack!

Galahad broke off a dead branch and threw it into the bonfire. Sparks rose, and the flickering firelight shone on his face, outlining the ferocious look at the corners of his mouth.

"Gerraint is famous for his audacity!"

Saihu also showed a sinister smile and raised the wine bag in his hand: "Let's drink to Commander Geraint!"

"Set out again in the middle of the night, let the Selis people who have relaxed their vigilance feel the bravery of Sakprut's army, and tell them that the land of the west is not where they should come!"

Someone shouted "Enemy attack!"

Ouch~~
In the dark night in the distance, the desolate howl of wolves could be heard.

"Warriors of the Fourth Legion of the Conquerors, this time, please give a great gift to Emperor Sakprut!"

The crawling figure stood up slowly. He had thick short hair, a handsome white face, and was covered in lightweight armor. He held a small buckler in his left hand, and a knight's one-handed sword with the hilt in his other hand. It is in the shape of a cross, with an oval sapphire as big as a little finger embedded in the center of both sides.

distance.

The figures lying on the ground behind him and on the left and right slowly stood up at this sentence, and walked quickly towards the Selis camp with fires burning in front of them.

Countless swords clashed and killed, and in the firelight were the figures of Western barbarians rushing toward them. Someone was shouting: "Hold!"

When they got close to the patrol area of ​​the opponent's patrol, the swordsman battalion soldiers at the front, carrying double swords on their backs or holding large swords, suddenly started running.

"Commander Geraint, start now?"

The voices on both sides were mixed together to such a degree that it made people's hair stand on end instantly.

In the firelight, his figure appeared much taller than before. He was sitting cross-legged on the grass in the backlight, closing his eyes and dozing off alone.

The Yuezhou soldiers on the periphery stabbed the soldiers of the Fourth Army who jumped over the carriage, and were then thrown to the ground by the barbarians behind them. The Sakprut soldier was riding on him, and the sharp dagger directly penetrated the Yuezhou soldiers. The state soldier opened his mouth.

"Haha, do we still have to wait until dawn?"

——The emperor’s luck!
"In this way, the army that wants to deliver food should be able to reduce some casualties, but I don't know how long this secret technique can last."

Blood and organs were sprayed on the bodies of the Yuezhou soldiers in front. The sudden change caused the patrol to sound a warning gong. The moment the rest of them came forward with spears, more Western barbarian soldiers emerged from the darkness. gushed out.

"... After several observations, it turns out that the Celis grain transport team is the largest and transports the most grain. If they are burned by a fire, how do you think the emperor of Celis will show a distressed expression? .

The patrolling soldiers yawned and held torches as they circled the 'fence' formed by the carriages.

The wilderness immersed in darkness looks hazy and eerie under the moonlight. Looking at the vast desolation, there are also "car villages" lined up with wagons filled with food.

Su Chen felt that luck was adding to his body, and it also spread along his body to all the troops under his command. If it were spread evenly, the luck might start to decrease, but it was still better than nothing.

Among the chaotic crowds, a battalion of more than a hundred swordsmen interspersed in the chaos and rushed toward the place with the big fire in the distance.

The patrol that had passed more than ten feet heard footsteps, and someone turned around. His eyes instantly shrank, and at the same time, a big sword slashed at him, directly cutting the person in half.

During the fighting, the Sakprut soldiers who attacked at night also set fire to the grain bags on the carriage, and a fire broke out in a blink of an eye.

There are more than 10,000 people, and the number of carriages has reached more than 1,700. Most of the carriages were obtained from the captured cities of Satila, and some were obtained from Prime Minister Zhuge who was stationed there. The craftsmen in the army built it in days.

The wind whimpered, and a faint voice sounded among the messy grass.

The moonlight shines on the wasteland, and there are countless figures crawling close to the ground. At the front, a gaze looks at the Selis army stationed in the distance in the darkness.

The handsome knight named Geraint slowly pulled out the cross sword, and in the darkness, his handsome face showed a sunny smile.

More conflicts continued to spread inward, and the outer defenses of the Yuezhou Army were torn apart by the Fourth Army.

Countless savage roars rang out from the darkness. The rushing swordsman battalion directly killed the ten-man patrol and rushed directly to the middle of the grain truck. The soldiers of the Fourth Legion of the Conqueror on the left and right, or Running, or riding on horseback, they attacked the Eastern soldiers in the Seles camp.

Galahad, the seat of disaster, has a special ability. Whenever he goes into battle, he will inevitably cause a disaster. So far, his disaster has always shrouded the enemy's head.

The wind blew, and the cloak fluttered in the firelight.

The bloody and murderous wind blew over, stirring up huge flames. The tall figure with his back grabbed a giant ax lying flat at his feet and stood up by the fire.

In the burning bonfire, soldiers recruited from Yuezhou sat back to back on the ground to rest, holding their weapons, or leaning on the wheels and snoring.

The first soldier from the Swordsman Battalion who rushed over seemed to have springs on his feet. He jumped up, swung his sword, and stabbed the opponent in the back.

With the sobbing night wind blowing on his face, the Yuezhou general sitting cross-legged on the ground slowly opened his eyes, as if he felt uneasy.

After two battles, the food transport team of the Salis people was not as fierce as the army in front. When attacked, they would disorder themselves and then keep running away. The man next to the fire should be General Salis. The soldiers drove away Selis's soldiers, then set fire to their grain carts, and the swordsman battalion directly surrounded and killed General Selis. "

There was also a voice belonging to the Fourth Legion of the Conquerors shouting: "Kill all the Seles and burn their food!"

At the same time, more than 150 miles southwest of here, located at the foothills above Longcheng, is a wilderness on the Central Asian Plateau, with an uninhabited area of ​​more than 50 miles.

After doing all this, Su Chen took off his cumbersome clothes and returned to the wooden couch to sleep peacefully.

The generals escorting this team were recruited from Yuezhou. They had not fought any major battles and could only do some errands of escorting grain and grass.

There are more than thirty branches before and after, but it is just one of many grain transports at the moment, but this one is slightly larger in number and more eye-catching.

As everyone knows, Su Chen in the military camp in Kadira, hundreds of miles away, did not fall asleep. Instead, he lit incense candles in the tent, closed his eyes and inspired Emperor Guangwu's secret technique.

The next second, there was the sound of heavy giant soldiers stirring up wind and thunder.

The swordsman seemed to have been hit by ten thousand horses, and his broken body flew past everyone's eyes with a line of blood.

The swordsman who rushed up looked to the opposite side. The figure standing in the firelight was tall and mighty, holding a giant axe. He turned around slowly, his beard stroking slightly under his chin.

"How dare you, the Western thief, stroke my beard!"

The Right General and Zhuanghou of the Great Wei Dynasty—Xu Huang!
The giant ax rises again and swings angrily!

……

Nongma City.

The night wind ran across the terrace and squeezed into the gap between the slightly opened window lattice. The candle flame hung with wax suddenly deflected and almost went out.

The prophet Moses who was writing stopped his quill and raised his old face. He looked at the candlelight for a moment, and suddenly there was horror in his eyes.

"Precognition...changed."

He dropped the pen in his hand and hurriedly called the servant outside, "Go and call His Majesty Sakpruit!"

……

On the battlefield north of Longcheng, the fighting is still going on.

The Yuezhou soldiers resisted for a while, but gradually lost their strength and began to retreat, shrinking the scope of their defense. The fire became more and more intense, and many of the carriages were already on fire.

In the conflict between light and shadow, after Geraint ensured the balance of victory, he rode from the rear to the front. Looking at the vulnerable Selis army, he took a deep breath of the night air.

Raise your face slightly and enjoy the gentle moonlight shining down.

"Let's go and catch the Seris general..." Honor and pride surged up. At this moment, Geraint seemed to be the god of war in mythology, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, galloping on his horse. .

There were Selis soldiers who rushed towards him, but he cut them off with a casual sword.

In the firelight burning everywhere, the sounds of swordsmen clashing, human shouts, and screams all reached their peak. "Where is the Selesian general?!"

Geraint scanned the surroundings. There were scenes of people fighting and being illuminated by fire. For a moment, it was difficult to identify where the generals of the Selis army were.

"Over there!" A knight's retinue pointed in a direction, but his face showed horror.

He looked past the dozens of rushing figures.

In front of the huge fire, I saw a tall General Selis wielding a giant ax and being surrounded by more than a hundred people, but he stood like a god of war in the firelight and night.

A swordsman bowed his body and slid over with his sword. General Celis waved his giant soldiers, and the sound of human bodies breaking could be heard in the night sky.

Blood spurted out, the arm holding the sword rose into the sky, and half of the body flew out. In just one breath, the figures violently attacked each other, and then flew back in pieces.

More swordsmen swarmed forward.

One-handed swords and big swords were used with various techniques, slashing with sharp sword energy, and the giant ax was flipped and swung horizontally, absorbing most of the attacks.

Somewhat unable to dodge, the Selis general used his steel-hard wrist armor to block it with a bang, causing a few sparks to bounce.

Geraint frowned. He did not expect that this timid and cowardly Selis army would have such a powerful general.

In front of his field of vision, there were many swordsmen rushing forward to fight with General Naceris. He saw that General Naceris was majestic. As he waved the big gun in his hand, the armor leaves shook, and at the same time, the swordsmen who rushed forward with their combined strength All the swordsmen were knocked away.

With General Selis as the center, the corpses of more than thirty swordsmen were lying around.

bang bang——

A swordsman holding a big sword also took advantage of his tallness and stepped forward to fight with the opponent. The next moment, the sword was broken by a huge ax, and the whole man was chopped into two parts.

The swordsmen around were finally frightened and did not dare to rush forward. They stopped and looked around. Of the hundred or so people who came with them, only sixty-two were still standing.

"Heroic Seles."

Geraint urged his horse to pass. When these swordsmen noticed Geraint's arrival, they all made way for him to pass.

General Selis over there also saw Geraint riding over.

The resolute oriental face showed a disdainful sneer, and the giant soldier in his hand hit the ground, making a "bang" sound and the ground shook slightly.

"How dare the barbarian generals come to fight!"

Geraint couldn't understand the other party's words, but from the other party's movements and expressions, he could still guess that the other party was provoking.

He turned around and ordered the followers around him to continue burning and killing, while he slowly pulled out the cross sword, placed it horizontally at his side, and urged the war horse to pass through the group of swordsmen and towards General Naceris.

As he approached, Geraint's handsome face showed an excited smile, and then he jumped on his horse and rushed towards the opponent.

The speed was astonishing, and the cross sword in his hand was also dazzling. The swordsmen around him could barely see the afterimage caused by the sword body.

General Nathalis also swung his giant ax at the same time, causing a majestic sound of wind in the air.

Before the people around them could see clearly, they only heard a "bang" sound of gold and iron being struck, followed by a crisp sound of breaking.

The slender sword broke into two pieces and flew into the night sky. The neck of the galloping horse was torn apart, and the horse's head flew in the air with a bloody line.

The heavy horse ran for a few steps and fell to the ground. Geraint on the horse flew back with an incredible look in his eyes. In the field of vision, General Celis swung a giant axe, He didn't stop his attack, but instead turned his hands over and raised the giant ax above his head, slashing him down with a bang.

Gerald threw the half of the sword in his hand, and then it was cut off with a bang. The falling axe blade tore his shoulder armor, leaving a string of blood.

Geraint fell to the ground, holding his shoulder where there was severe pain, and shouted: "Let's surround him and kill him!"

The surrounding swordsmen and knights' retinues swarmed forward. The opponent's giant ax dragged the ground and the two swordsmen who rushed forward cut off their feet directly. The ax edge gradually rose to the height of a person's waist.

The three people who rushed up from the other side were instantly cut off at the waist, and more people rushed up and turned into half corpses.

Countless pieces of flesh and blood flew into the air like exploding.

"Barbarians, I am Xu Gongming of China!"

The giant ax was hung with sticky plasma and minced meat. It paused in mid-air, and then was lifted from Xu Huang's hand to the ground. His voice was bold and filled with soul-stirring murderous intent.

Geraint was frightened by the sound, and the severe pain in his left shoulder gave him the first impulse to escape.

'I am the knight of Arthur the Lionheart...I cannot retreat...'

'Can't retreat...'

He could no longer lift his left hand, but his right hand was intact. He grabbed a sword from a retinue, held the sword in one hand and rushed toward General Selis over there again with a cry of "Ah!"

This time, he broke out with a certain death mentality!
"Salys——"

He roared, turned into an afterimage and got close to the opponent among the broken limbs and corpses. Xu Huang chopped off another approaching knight's retinue with an axe, turned his face slightly, and looked at the charging Geraint calmly.

It was the calmness that a veteran on the battlefield would have after seeing life and death, and the fighting spirit of charging into battle to defend the enemy.

Just one look, filled with murderous intent.

Like a huge mountain, it stood in front of Geraint.

"Ah!!" He opened his mouth to the extreme, and waved his movable right hand backwards. The long sword in his hand glowed with a hot white light, drawing an arc of light in the dark night.

At this moment, the giant ax was like a pillar of heaven, swinging with a bang——

boom!
The white light shattered and dissipated. Geraint was shot out like a cannonball and rolled on the ground. He got up and looked to the opposite side. General Seris was covered in white air, and his eyebrows were slightly burned in the white light just now. .

"Thief..."

Xu Huang raised his hand to hold up his hanging long beard and thick beard, and when he saw that several places on it were burned, a scowl suddenly appeared on his face.

Like his good friend Guan Yu, he takes great care of his beard.

Over there, Geraint casually grabbed a weapon on the ground, rushed forward staggeringly, and was knocked away again. Then he got up, rushed forward again, and was knocked away again.

He kept falling down, getting up, rushing up, and then being knocked away.

After repeating it more than ten times, Xu Huang finally vented the anger in his heart and grabbed Geraint, who had a bruised nose and swollen face and only a crack in his eye. The latter weakly raised his right hand and punched Xu Huang. Akira held his fist, twisted it, and pulled it.

The entire arm, complete with flesh, was forcefully pulled from the opponent's shoulder.

"Originally I wanted to take you back alive, but you are determined to die and there is no point in catching you. I might as well fulfill your bravery!"

Blood gushed out from Geraint's mouth and nose, and his neck was crushed alive in Xu Huang's hands.

All around, the swordsman battalion who saw this scene rushed over madly. When they heard the news that Geraint had been killed, soldiers from the Fourth Legion of the Conqueror surged towards this side like a tide.

At the same time, in the night, the sound of horns from the east sounded.

From the far side of the camp, groups of cavalry came running through the night and launched an encirclement charge!
……

The sky gradually became brighter, and the two armies were spread out on the plateau, ten miles apart.

The flags fluttering in the wind represent the Second Legion of Centaurs and the Second Legion of Conquerors respectively.

Galahad and Saihu, the Sea of ​​Disaster, plan to launch another attack, and are completely unaware of the war on Geraint's side.

In the agreed upon plan, they would attack the Celis grain transport army that had just woken up and was about to go on the road.

However, before they were ready to attack, scouts from behind came with shocking news.

——Three huge groups of Selis cavalry appeared in the provinces of Analia and Padinya.

Only then did Galahad realize that his home had been robbed!
