Chapter 204 Long Halberd Kills King Zhao

When the sound of killing on the logging road shook the sky, the two thousand Zhao troops who had quietly stopped the entrance of the valley were also ready for battle.

According to the original arrangement, they were ambushed in the dark, watching the three thousand Qin cavalry passing by with their own eyes, and then quickly cut off the valley entrance. The order of King Zhao was very clear. They did not have to take the initiative to participate in the battle in the valley. As long as they defended this retreat path, no defeated enemy troops were allowed to let go.

The general who led these more than 2,000 men was Wang Jun. This young man was promoted from the army by King Zhao Chu Jiangmian. More than half a year ago, he was just a captain, but in the battle at Qixialing, the young captain refused to take his own life and directly cut off the head of the famous general of the Southern Han Dynasty Bai Chu among the thousands of troops and became famous. For this reason, after the war, he received personal commendation from King Zhao and promoted him to the general led by Long Yu. This time, he led the two thousand cavalry to go to war with the army, which was enough to show Chu Jiangmian's trust in him.

Wang Jun is an ambitious young man. Like many soldiers in the army, the young King Zhao is the object of their common loyalty. In the hearts of these passionate people, they all hope to follow King Zhao to create a more brilliant future.

Wang Jun naturally cherished the opportunity to go to the State of Qi. He obeyed any orders from King Zhao and followed them unconditionally.

However, at this moment, I saw the fire lights not far away illuminating the entire valley. The sounds of shouting and fighting were deafening. Wang Jun, like all the cavalrymen, was immediately a little restless. Such a waiting was really hard to bear!

"General! Let's kill and take a look... If it's too late, all the Qin army will be killed!"

The impatient cavalry looked at their young general and wanted him to immediately give an order to go ahead and see what was going on. Wang Jun was even more anxious than them, but such orders were not so easy to say.

"The king has no orders, and no one is allowed to act rashly. Be prepared for the Qin army to come back."

Wang Jun stared at the direction where the fireworks were floating. Although the knife in his hand was tightly held, he finally took a deep breath and suppressed the impulse in his heart.

Since the general did not give orders, the two thousand cavalry could only continue to wait. They only hope that the Qin army would appear quickly, even if each person killed a few! Otherwise, waiting here will be too shameless until the war is over.

In fact, Wang Jun felt a little regretful. If he had made a choice, he really wanted to compete with the cavalry in his hands head-on with the cavalry of Qin. What kind of tiger and wolf army, and what famous generals in the world, he never took it seriously! The so-called newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, which is a young man like him.

What's more, he was quite confident in his victory. Wang Jun looked down at his equipment and felt a sense of heroism in his heart. The source of his confidence was the new weapons and strong armor that King Zhao had equipped them with.

It is no exaggeration to say that the armor worn by the Zhao army's cavalry now is definitely the strongest among the vassals in the world. The new armor made by the Zhao Army Smelting Office using special technology is not only light but also tough, but also not as strong as ordinary armor. This greatly improves their protection level on the battlefield. When they are bravely charging, everyone is more confident.

In terms of weapons, in addition to the magic crossbows equipped by humans, the long swords in their hands are also sharper than those used before. Although they are not as sharp as magic weapons that cut iron like mud, they are much more powerful than they used before. It is said that this new combat knife was also made by the smelters under the personal guidance of King Zhao, and they added special materials and worked hard. The Zhao army was not used all, but they were given priority to all equipment when they came to Qi to fight.

Wang Jun and his cavalry, who had these advantages, were eager for a real battle to prove their strength. But will such an opportunity come to them in the battle of logging roads? It is still unknown.

And just when these Zhao men were eager to fight, they didn't know that a thrilling scene suddenly happened on the battlefield not far apart.

The Zhao army, which ambushed on both sides of the mountains, was already sure to win. The three thousand Qin cavalry surrounded by them lost nearly half of them in a short period of time. The rest were smoke and fire, and retreated in an extremely embarrassing manner. The Zhao army naturally would not give them a chance to escape, and the crossbows kept on stopping. Even if they could not be eliminated, they would die even if they could not be eliminated.

Lan Lingjun, who was standing beside Chu Jiangmian watching the battle, couldn't help but feel relieved when he saw the situation in front of him. He let out a long sigh and sighed. Victory came so easily! If Mu Xueqing could be killed here, the danger of Qi State would be relieved immediately and there would be no worries!

"Hey, where is Mu Xueqing... where did he run?"

Princess Wuyou next to him exclaimed softly, interrupting Lanlingjun's thoughts, who was energetic. He couldn't help but be shocked. When he quickly leaned over to see, the figure riding a white horse was indeed gone. The information the scholars of the Qianji Pavilion of Zhao State inquired was very accurate. They knew in advance that the only one riding a white horse in this cavalry team was Mu Xueqing. But now he suddenly disappeared, why isn't it surprising?

"Haha! He's coming."

Chu Jiangmian smiled faintly. Whether it was Princess Wuyou or Lan Lingjun, he didn't understand what he meant. While he was stunned, someone flashed, but Bai Ye, holding the double hook, was already blocking Chu Jiangmian's body.

"The king quickly retreat! This person is said to be very powerful. Just in case, I will order the soldiers to aim at the target and shoot him directly!"

Bai Ye looked grim. When Princess Wuyou and Lan Lingjun followed his gaze, they saw a horse flying, crossing mountains and ridges like walking on flat ground, and it was not far from here in the blink of an eye. Only then did they understand what Chu Jiangmian was talking about!

"That's... Mu Xueqing! He rushed up alone, what did he want to do?"

Lan Lingjun was very surprised. Although his martial arts were not very powerful, he was also knowledgeable and had many powerful figures under his command. He still had a look in this aspect when he heard and saw the figure who was flying up from the mountains, and even the people and horses were covered with murderous aura, which was extremely sharp! He knew that the person who came was not good, and the good person would not come, and it was very likely that he would be in trouble.

With Bai Ye waved his hand, dozens of Qianji Pavilion spies around him also surrounded him. They surrounded Chu Jiangmian and began to be vigilant. No one knew Mu Xueqing better than them. In the information collected over the years, the martial arts value of this famous Qin general was definitely among the masters in the world.

The soldiers of the Zhao army nearby also discovered the enemy general's attack. With the call, many crossbow arrows turned around and shot towards the white horse. However, they did not expect that the horse was extremely stern and seemed to be in harmony with the master. They walked through the mountains and rocks while leaping, but they were injuring them.

At this moment, Mu Xueqing was on the horse, focused all his attention on the figure standing high on the mountain. He knew from intuition that the person protected in the middle must be King Zhao Chu Jiangmian! Seeing that the distance was getting closer and closer, the crossbow arrows shot became more and more dense. Mu Xueqing waved his sword with one hand and slapped the war horse's mane with the other, and said softly.

"Protect yourself well. Wait until I go kill someone before coming back!"

The white horse seemed to understand his words, raised his head to the sky, and neighed for a long time. Mu Xueqing no longer hesitated, and the long sword came out of his hand, and it stabbed the target more than ten feet away like a bolt of lightning! At the same time, there was a long halberd in his hand. His arms shook, and he danced up and down. The strength was everywhere, sand and stones flew around, and within a radius of more than a meter, all the crossbow arrows lost their correct head.

The Zhao army, who noticed the abnormality, couldn't help but exclaim in unison, and the long sword was everywhere, and some people were injured. No matter how far or near the distance, they realized the danger that King Zhao was about to face. The attack of masters was a big deal! If Chu Jiangmian had any mistakes, it would be a common disaster for Zhao and Qi. The Qin cavalry below who were struggling to support the rain of arrows burst out with glory at the same time. Their general was about to kill the king alone, and perhaps he would turn defeat into victory in the next moment and regain control of the overall situation!

There seemed to be a moment of silence on the logging path where the flames were flying. Countless people gathered their eyes, and Mu Xueqing, who had jumped up from the horse's back, gently tapped the rock with the tip of the halberd, and his body flew away with the long halberd, and more than ten crossbow arrows passed by his feet. He sneered in the air, and when he flew up again with the power of the long halberd, the man had already jumped up to the rocks of the mountain, with his eyes fast and hands fast. In the blink of an eye, four or five figures that rushed over to block were picked aside, and blood was splattered, either dead or injured.

"Chu Jiangmian! Come on with your life!"

Mu Xueqing shouted loudly, spit out the air in her chest, and the tip of the halberd flashed coldly, and she stabbed forward. Although the moonlight on the ridge was hazy and it was not very real. But Mu Xueqing believed that his judgment was absolutely correct. The young man who was looking at this place calmly must be King Zhao. The two were only a few steps away. If he wanted to kill him, no one could stop him!

From discovering that the enemy general was attacking alone, breaking through the rain of arrows, to the swords flying in front of him, those cold eyes full of murderous intent shot straight over, it was only a moment's effort. This is the strength of the strong people in the world!

Chu Jiangmian did not leave at all. Through the moonlight and the light of the sword, he saw the determination to kill in his eyes and couldn't help but sigh slightly. It would be a pity to kill a famous general in this world so easily. He was originally fantasizing whether there was a possibility of conquering him, but he only looked at the other party and realized that it was just his wishful thinking.

"Log Trail, logging Trail... Mu Xueqing, since you stepped into this place, can you still survive?"
