Chapter 707 The critical moment
In the dark night sky, blood poured down like rain.
There were even a few huge heads, which even let out uninterrupted screams of terror and rolled away from them. This scene was simply more shocking than the hell in nightmares, but Shen Tutai and Yu Wenye showed no fear. The two of them waved their knives through the rain of blood, stepped over the corpses, and rushed into the frightened crowd in front of them again.
Not only did those people not bother to fight back with bows and arrows, they didn't even have the strength to draw out their swords. They could only gallop forward on their horses to escape.
The light was as cold as frost, and in an instant, more than a dozen people were beheaded off their horses.
Yuwen Cui was only more than ten feet away from them.
Although the night was as dark as ink, he could still clearly see Yuwen Ye's figure as strong as a tiger. He rushed into the crowd and slashed left and right. When he rode his horse to follow, what rushed towards him was A bloody storm.
His cheeks were soaked with blood from the night wind, and he subconsciously reached out and wiped it.
Under the pale moonlight, his fingertips were completely dyed red.
He didn't even have to look up, he just looked at his red palms. The blood was still flowing downwards. Even on his face, the blood was mixed with sweat and gathered into lines. Drops of water dripped from his chin after condensation - the salty smell, coupled with the shrill screams and frightened calls for help from the enemy soldiers who were killed and fell all the way in front, were intertwined together to form the most terrifying scene for Shura. field.
However, he slowly raised his head.
As soon as he raised his head, another rain of blood was blown towards him by the wind. This time, even the clothes on his body were dyed red, and the originally spotless white clothes spread out one after another. A blood-red flower was sad, beautiful and strange, especially when it bloomed on him, it had a different kind of cruelty.
The soldiers who were following him were shocked when they saw this.
His Royal Highness the King of Han, although this time he attacked Taiyuan and almost conquered the entire attack alone, and he defeated Wang Shaoji and the Western Turks in one battle before, he is a natural general, but they all know that the King of Han Before being canonized as King of Han, and even before returning to Yuwen's family, he had practiced Buddhism for many years and was a devout Buddhist.
The scene happening ahead was a bit shocking even to soldiers who had been fighting for many years.
I don't know what impact it will have on him.
A few people looked at each other. Although they did not speak, they all rode hard to keep up. They looked carefully at Yu Wensu's eyes that were originally clear but now so dark that they almost blended into the night. Someone Whispered: "Your Highness?"
"..."
"Your Highness, King of Han?"
"...!"
Yuwen was startled suddenly, as if he had been awakened, and turned his head to look at them. His eyes were still clear and bright under the faint moonlight.
A few people breathed a sigh of relief, and asked hurriedly and covertly: "Should we--"
Yu Wenzuo was very calm, and did not even get angry because of the moment of absence. Is there any embarrassment? An only tightened the reins with his blood-stained hands, continued to ride the horse, and then said: "Go and help them!"
"Yes!"
A group of people He immediately galloped his horse, raised his whip, and drew out his sword.
Because they were defeated and shocked by Yu Wenye and Shen Tutai, the people who were behind at the front gradually became disorganized and were killed by those who were chasing after them. In an instant, only broken corpses and stains of blood were left on the road.
Yu Wensu rode his horse and rushed to Yuwen Ye's side. Although the night was dark, he could barely see that his handsome face was stained with blood at the moment. In addition, his whole body was covered with flesh and blood, it was really like a fierce battle. Shura is generally heroic and terrifying. Yu Wenzhen's eyebrows frowned slightly, but he showed no more expression. He only said in a deep voice: "Second brother, you have to be careful. Just now -"
As soon as the words fell, the front rolled down again. There was a body blocked in the middle of the road.
The two pulled the reins to both sides at the same time. The horse under the seat was very alert and immediately raised its hooves to avoid the man. Yu Wenye continued to whip the horse while saying: "I know what the emperor is going to say. What?"
Yuwen said in surprise: "It's too dangerous."
"..."
"If the person in front of you suddenly turns around, you - with only Shen Tutai beside you, no matter how brave and good at fighting, you will be unable to defeat four hands with two fists."
Yu Wenye Said: "Brother, don't worry."
"..."
"They dare not."
These words were spoken so calmly, with only a slight gasp after a bloody fight, but everyone could hear the certainty and arrogance in his words.
On the battlefield, Yu Wenye has such ability!
Yu Wenzuo looked at him with flickering eyes for a while, but in the end he didn’t say anything. He just turned his head and looked at the shadowy figure speeding forward in front of him.
The rumble of the horseshoes was even more urgent and nervous than before.
Obviously, the subsequent fighting also shocked the people in front. Wang Shao and others knew that Yu Wenye and others were catching up, so they wanted someone to come over and intercept them halfway, but they did not expect that it would be so unsuccessful. At this moment, they did not dare to fight. They could only gallop harder and harder, trying to get rid of this group of people. But, it's not that easy.
In this way, they chased and escaped all the way, from the gloomy weather at night to the dark night around them, and they could not see their fingers. The rumble of horse hooves made the otherwise silent night into a noisy place. At the end, the sky in front gradually turned white, the morning light gradually whitened the sky, and then there was a rooster singing, and the whole place was filled with light.
They chased them all night long.
And that night, there were several more fights. The people sent from the front to intercept them were killed mercilessly by Yu Wenye and Shen Tutai. The people under Yu Wenwei's men were killed. They also approached them one after another and fought with them.
Even so, they were still some distance away from the person speeding away in front of them.
At this time, Yu Wenye had not slept a wink all day and night.
After he finished the battle in Taiyuan, he went all the way north, traveling day and night to the Western Turks Yazhang. After picking up Shang Ruyi, he barely slept for two nights. On the last day, they hurriedly arrived in Taiyuan. city closed city He went back in front of the door, but he didn't expect that he would encounter Wang Shaoji before he entered the city, and now he was pursuing him all night long——
Seeing the daylight, Yu Wenzuo's physical strength, by this time, was also exhausted. Almost reaching the limit.
While gritting his teeth, he wrapped the reins twice around his palms to ensure that he would not fall off the horse due to physical exertion. He turned his head and took a look, and saw Yu Wenye's face was pale and his lips were pale. There was almost no blood.
He said in a deep voice: "Second brother!"
"Brother Imperial,"
Yu Wenye still didn't look at him, but his pale lips opened and closed slightly, but he said clearly: "If I guessed correctly, their destination is ahead."< br>
“…”
“So, we can’t stop. We can’t stop here!”
“In front?”
Yu Wenzhen was stunned when he heard the words. He subconsciously raised his head and looked forward. At the first glance, he saw a high mountain standing in front of him, blocking out the sky and the sun. The main peak was like a chair, with the two wing ridges stretched out, and the mountain was covered with pines and cypresses. , has not withered in the cold, and even covers the mountain and rock walls. Once a person enters such a mountain forest, it will be difficult to find traces!
That is Gonggong Mountain in the northeast of Taiyuan!
At this time, a gust of wind blew by, and there were waves of pines and waves, and there were even people roaring and neighing, coming with the wind.
Yuwen suddenly opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Yu Wenye seemed to have expected it, and was not surprised. He only squinted his eyes slightly, trying to avoid the dazzling feeling brought by the rising sun, and then said: "Last night, I rushed out of the city. Although the people who went out were mixed with the captives they deliberately released, I calculated that the remaining troops of Wang Shao and his men should be more than that."
Being dazzled by the sunlight, Yu Wensu also half-squinted his eyes.
He immediately recalled that day on that grassland, when he designed to cause Wang Shaoji to engage in a melee with the group of Western Turks who had sent reinforcements to Taiyuan. After that, both sides retreated, although he also took advantage of the victory to pursue Wang Shaoji. Shaoji's men and horses killed many people, but from what he saw, the way the other party fled in a hurry, there should indeed be more than the number of people last night.
Furthermore, he was a little strange about pursuing this route——
If Wang Shaoji was attacking with a large army, he should be able to detect the opponent immediately with the sentries he set up around Taiyuan. 's deeds.
Unless it is a small group of people, it is not easy to be discovered.
And after hearing what Yu Wenye said, it was right - Wang Shaoji probably hid the rest of his troops on the Water God Mountain in front, and led a small group of troops to meet Yu Wen in the north of the city while he was there. Ye, when the city was empty of defenses, he broke into the east city gate and set fire to it, rescued Wang Shaoqiu and others, and rushed all the way here.
Yu Wenye and the troops he brought were not many.
But Wang Shao and the people hiding in Shuishen Mountain are enough.
Once they are allowed into the mountains, not to mention whether they can be found, if they really assemble and take advantage of the situation to fight back, I am afraid that everyone along the way will be lost here!
Thinking of this, Yuwen said in surprise: "Fengchen!"
However, Yu Wenye didn't seem to hear him at all, or maybe he heard him, but he had no intention of retreating. Seeing that he turned a curve, there was another river bed in front of him that was about to dry up. It was almost cold enough to cover the small retreat. The river flows slowly past.
After crossing the river, the Water God Mountain is right in front of you!
They may never have a chance again!
But at this moment, they also saw that at the end of the road ahead, the two brothers Wang Shaoji and Wang Shaoqiu were already leading the way, galloping towards the river, their horses' hooves stepping into the cold water. Inside, waves half as high as a person were immediately aroused, splashing onto people's bodies, and they were immediately chilled to the bone.
Following that, the people and horses around them also jumped into the river.
For a time, there was a mixture of people and horses, and the river almost stopped flowing. The river water was swaying like rain, but they didn't care at all and just rode their horses forward with all their strength.
Oops!
Seeing this scene, Yu Wenye wanted to touch the bow and arrow behind him, but found that there was not even an arrow left in the quiver.
The surrounding soldiers, after this night of fighting, were all panting. Each of them looked pale and tired. Seeing that the other was about to cross the river, at this time, there was actually a A depressed mood.
No longer able to catch up...
At this moment, there was a sudden "whoosh" sound, and a silver light flashed in front of my eyes!
