Great Han Empire

Chapter 56 Yanzhao Fengyun
Tuoba Hong found that the enemies on the opposite side were neither panic nor confused, nor did they flee in all directions.

This means that they only tampered with their own piece of ice, while the ice they were standing on had no problems and was intact.Tuoba Hong became excited, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, he shouted loudly with all his strength:
"Brothers, go to the opposite side. The opposite side is the place to survive. Kill..."

Tuoba Hong tried his best to push away the soldiers in front of him, while running fast, while waving his sword, he kept shouting.When the soldiers heard that the opposite side was the place to survive, they all cheered up and rejoiced. They shouted, raised their weapons, and rushed forward with overwhelming force, regardless of the sound of ice cracking like thunder in their ears.

Li Hong immediately noticed the abnormality. He flew forward, snatched the iron ax from the stake, and ran towards the enemy at high speed, while turning around and shouting: "Shoot, shoot intensively."

As soon as the words fell, the longbows in the hands of the soldiers were almost simultaneously raised, and they shot dense arrows at the enemy.

Fengxue screamed and was about to catch up.The beard next to her swooped down, grabbed her, and shouted loudly: "You're crazy." In desperation, Feng Xue turned around and punched her.Hu Zi didn't know that the little girl was good at martial arts, so he was punched immediately, and her body flew up.Just as the soldiers nearby exclaimed, Feng Xue rushed out again.At the same time, the pickaxe reached out and pulled out a bundle of rope from the cloth pouch of the horse behind him, and chased after Li Hong at the fastest speed.Huzi turned over and stood up, quickly chasing behind the wind and snow.The wooden stakes and the hammers yelled wildly, running after the pickaxes one after another.

The enemy was running at the fastest speed, and under the leadership of Tuoba Hong, they rushed towards them frantically, regardless of the dense long arrows shot from the opposite side
Li Hong was running at high speed, his eyes fixed on the ground looking for cracks in the ice.The pickaxe chased after Li Hong, and the stake and hammer chased after the pickaxe.Fengxue was running on the other side, Huzi tried his best to catch up.

Long arrows are whistling in the sky.The ice on the lake was breaking, making more and more violent explosions.The enemies running on the opposite side kept screaming, and the soldiers shot arrows one after another and fell to the ice.

The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, and gradually there were only thirty steps left.Soldiers on both sides could clearly see each other's faces.

Li Hong raised his big axe, aimed at a crack in the ice layer, and slashed down hard.

Tuobahong saw Li Hong's plan, and he cried out in a voice of complete despair: "Shoot him, shoot him..."

The soldiers running at the front could see that Li Hong was trying to use an iron ax to chop the crevices of the ice, causing the ice to break faster.Without thinking, they immediately knelt down on one leg, aimed at Li Hong and shot.A dozen arrows roared and shot out almost at the same time.

The pickaxe approached at high speed, and he stood in front of Li Hong and swung his saber, forming an airtight sword curtain, instantly chopped off seven or eight long arrows, and the rest of the long arrows shot straight into the pickaxe's chest.The huge inertial force of the long arrow's flight brought him back again and again.

Li Hong cut another axe, and the sound of the ice breaking suddenly made a huge pop.Out of the corner of his eyes, Li Hong saw the pickaxe moving backwards, so he hurriedly pressed his body firmly against the pickaxe's body, and shouted: "Hold it, hold it..."

With a roar of the pickaxe, holding the knife with both hands, he thrust it hard into the ice, and finally stopped his retreat.

Li Hong raised the iron ax and chopped it down again. There was a loud "boom", and the ice layer on the left side of the lake suddenly exploded. The ice layer finally broke, and then a series of loud noises and explosions began.

Tuoba Hong raised his knife and shouted: "Shoot, shoot him to death..."

The distance between the two sides was fifteen steps.

At the moment when the long arrow flew towards his body, Huzi leaped high from the air and threw the wind and snow to the ground.Several long arrows whizzed past the scalps of the two of them.The wooden post dived and fell onto the ice, dodging the long arrows that were shot in the face, and slid forward rapidly on the ice according to the inertia.The hammer was shot in the thigh by an arrow and fell to the ice.

The long arrow roared.More arrows rained into Pickaxe's body.The pickaxe is standing on the knife, already dead.But he leaned tightly on Li Hong's body, erecting a physical shield for Li Hong.Li Hong felt that Haotou's body was shaking non-stop, thinking that Haotou was still wielding a sword to defend himself against arrows, he shouted excitedly, mustered all his strength, and chopped seven axes in a row.

The ice on the east side of the lake has basically sunk to the bottom of the lake, and the ice broke rapidly amidst the ear-piercing sound of explosions, approaching Tuoba Hong and the others as quickly as an arrow.The soldiers were screaming, struggling in the icy water of the lake, and sinking rapidly.In the earth-shattering roar, large chunks of ice broke at a high speed, then scattered and sank, the momentum was so great that it was soul-stirring.

Li Kuangfeng and the soldiers who survived by chance stood on the shore of the lake, each one shocked and dumbfounded.Lie Kuangfeng cursed loudly, wishing to curse even the eighteenth generation of Li Hong's ancestors.If it wasn't for his dawdling today, he might have to feed the fish like Tuoba Hong.

The two sides are five steps apart.Tuoba Hong's heart rose to his throat.There is already a cold lake in the back, and there is no way out. I only pray that the ice will support it for a while, so that I can escape naturally.

With a loud bang, the ice layer broke completely.

Li Hong let out a wild cry, grabbed the pickaxe with his backhand, and slid along the sloping ice into the icy lake.Tuoba Hong and the soldiers behind him uttered desperate screams before dying in unison. They looked around helplessly, at the sky, and watched themselves being swallowed by the lake.

Seeing Li Hong sinking into the water, Feng Xue screamed terribly.Beard rolled and crawled, running wildly and shouting.The stakes were still gliding on the ice.He saw the bundle of rope where the pick had dropped on the ice.

The stake grabbed the rope and slid itself down to the end of the ice.He yelled in fear, he had no way to control his skating speed at all.He opened his hands towards the lake, instinctively wanting to grab something.

At this moment, Li Hong suddenly emerged from the water, and he aimed at the head of the stake with his raised hand and gave it a hard push.With the help of this resistance, the stake finally stopped after sliding halfway out.However, Li Hong was hit by the recoil and sank into the lake again.

The stake threw out the rope in his hand.Immediately, he was grabbed by one leg by the beard and dragged back to the ice.The two hurriedly tugged on the rope.At this time, Feng Xue also ran over, crying and shouting, while helping to drag.Hammer and more soldiers came running, and the long rope went up quickly.

Li Hong grabbed the rope with one hand, held the pickaxe in the other, and emerged from the lake with a happy face.Everyone cheered involuntarily.Li Hong held the dead pickaxe and was dragged up by everyone.

Feng Xue cried and plunged into Li Hong's arms.Li Hong hugged her, but his eyes were on the pickaxe lying beside him.He always thought he was alive, and he hugged him tightly in the water with all his strength, but he didn't expect that he had already died from dozens of arrows in order to save himself.Li Hong cried.

Everyone buried the remains of their comrades-in-arms, passed Huahongyuan at the fastest speed, crossed Yexi River, and joined the troops led by Yan Wuwei.When the main force of the enemy was chasing Li Hong, he led more than 300 people and rushed out of the woods, surrounded and annihilated more than 50 soldiers guarding the convoy, and looted all the property in the convoy.

When Yan Wuwei saw Fengxue, he couldn't help raising his hand and exclaimed: "My God, there is still such a beautiful woman in the world, with blond hair and blue eyes. If we adults don't want to grab it, I will."

Fengxue smiled embarrassedly.Li Hong pointed to Yan Wuwei and said to Feng Xue: "He is Yan Wuwei, a hero."

Feng Xue hurriedly saluted immediately.Yan Wuwei was startled, quickly rolled off the saddle and got off the horse. While returning the salute respectfully, he said: "Madam, don't play tricks on the lower officials. Madam is your lord's wife, just nod to the lower officials."

Feng Xue immediately blushed, not knowing what to do.Its astonishing glamor made everyone around stunned for a while.Li Hong gave Feng Xue a push twice, quickly retracted his eyes staring blankly at Feng Xue, and sighed secretly.How can such a beauty be enjoyed by a martial artist like myself.

"Wuwei, have you contacted Lord Duan Zhen from the Linghu Tribe?" Li Hong patted Yan Wuwei, who kept peeking at Fengxue from time to time, with his whip.

Yan Wuwei hurriedly nodded, "We have made an appointment, we will meet at Xingmengyuan."

The troops did not rest immediately, more than 800 people, more than 1000 horses, carrying rich spoils, marched towards Dayan Mountain day and night.

Xingmengyuan.

Duan Zhen and Li Hong hugged each other tightly.The two bloody men who were close to each other met again after a few months of separation.

Feng Xue and Yan Wuwei immediately stepped forward to meet Duan Zhen.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Duan Zhen said with a smile.

"I want to use Uncle's power to secretly send Fengxue to Fuyu Country. Uncle's family is a Xianbei noble and has great influence on the prairie. There should be no problem."

Feng Xue stood silently at the side and stared at Li Hong, without making a sound, probably Li Hong had already told her.Yan Wuwei was stunned.He looked at Li Hong with eyes like an idiot.

Duan Zhen laughed.

"The commander-in-chief is indeed right. You are really an upright man. Don't worry, the commander-in-chief has already arranged everything. Since you found me, I will send Xiaoxue to Fuyu country myself, so that you won't worry."

Li Hong saluted Duan Zhenshen, and then flew onto the black panther.Yan Wuwei hurriedly followed him and jumped on the horseback, looking at Li Hong inexplicably, wondering why he wanted to leave after saying only one word.

Li Hong looked at Fengxue, and suddenly said loudly: "Be happy, Xiaoxue, you will be happy."

Feng Xue looked at him, letting tears wet the skirt of his clothes.

Li Hong turned his horse's head and left in the dust.

Yan Wuwei chased after Li Hong and shouted angrily: "Master, are you crazy? Why did you send Madam away?"

Li Hong smiled wryly.

"Why? Can't you see that Madam is almost dying of despair?" Yan Wuwei still roared loudly.

Li Hong shook his head helplessly.

"She can't exist anymore, you know that?"

"Why?" Yan Wuwei was stunned.

"If Helian knows that she is with me, no matter where he puts his face, his own woman can't protect him, and if he is robbed by others to be his wife, Helian will be ridiculed by the world. Helian has no face, the face of the Xianbei Kingdom Where did it come from? Because of this, Helian will definitely send troops to attack Lulongsai."

"Once the war between the two countries resumes, what will happen to Fengxue? Staying with me is too dangerous and a dead end. If you don't stay with me, returning to Helian's tent is also a dead end."

"So she has no choice but to not exist, and she should be killed by us."

"Then you sent Madam away, wouldn't Helian stop looking for you?"

"Fengxue is not with me. Anyway, Helian didn't lose too much face. His property was robbed, and his women were gone. The hatred with Dahan Kingdom just deepened. Even if he wanted to take revenge, he demanded The Xianbei army in the central and eastern regions had no reason to attack Lulongsai. It is impossible for the army in these two places to retaliate for his face alone. But if the matter is related to the face of the Xianbei country, it will be different. So Fengxue did not Now, things seem insignificant.”

Yan Wuwei finally understood Li Hong's painstaking efforts.And indeed it is.The existence of Fengxue is related to Helian, and it is also a matter of face for Xianbei.But she was gone, gone, and things were different.Under the circumstances that the current strength of the Great Han Kingdom is not enough to resist the Xianbei Kingdom, it is indeed very unwise to cause continuous wars for a woman.Yan Wuwei suddenly respected Li Hong.

"How long will the madam want to hide?" Yan Wuwei asked.

"Helian is dead, she can appear."

Yan Wuwei was speechless for a while, and had nothing to say.

"Then you and Madam..." Yan Wuwei hesitated and didn't say anything.

"She won't be my wife." Li Hong laughed disappointedly, "Our war with Xianbei will continue. We don't know how many years this war will last. She will never be My lady, do you know?"

Yan Wuwei understood, he sighed regretfully, and did not speak again.

Li Hong also let out a long sigh, and said in a low voice, "The commander-in-chief is about to attack the Han country."
