Chapter 83: The Great War Ends
The arrows in Su Qi'an's hand were all fired in a volley of three arrows, with high accuracy. The arrows hit the target, and many Da Rong soldiers fell to the ground.
Su Qi'an sandwiched the horse between his legs and galloped all the way, like a god of war, no one could stop him.
In the distance, Man Etu, who was leading a hundred elite men, watched Su Qi'an running all the way and chopped down the cold soldiers in front of him with one knife.
He shouted loudly, got on his horse, also held a long bow, aimed at Su Qi'an, and shot three arrows in a row.
Su Qi'an, who felt the danger, barely dodged the incoming arrows on one side of his body.
Su Qi'an did not hesitate and started to counterattack. At this moment, the two generals exchanged wild shots.
The arrows shot were broken upon collision, but as time passed, it could still be seen that Su Qi'an was slightly better.
This time Su Qi'an drew the bow with one arrow, and fired five arrows in a row. Not only did he break the arrow shot from Man's forehead, but the remaining arrows hit Man's forehead at a tricky angle.
Man'etu was hit by an arrow in the shoulder and fell off his horse. The subordinates behind him, with quick eyes and quick hands, helped Man'etu up.
Immediately afterwards, a team of shieldmen came forward to protect Man Foretu.
Su Qi'an sneered at the corner of his mouth and drew the bow string again. The arrow fired this time was different from the previous one. The arrow was pitch black, and even under the sunlight, there was no cold glow at all.
Man Etu, who was protected in the rear, shouted, "Get out quickly!"
Man'etu's reminder was timely, but the arrows fired were faster, and the shield man was hit the moment he retreated.
Several explosions sounded, and the shield bearers were affected by the force of the explosion and were knocked to the ground.
The shield bearers at the rear stepped forward one after another, once again protecting Man Fore Tu behind them to cover their retreat.
But then several more arrows were fired, explosions resounded, and another team of shield bearers were killed.
The figure of a man with a forehead being pulled back frantically by his subordinates, with a very ugly expression on his face.
He was one of the dignified generals of Da Rong's army, and being made so embarrassed by Su Qi'an was a complete slap in his face.
How could he swallow this breath?
Man'etu struggled, broke away from the crowd, got on his horse again, held a big sword, and charged towards Su Qi'an.
Here, he and Su Qian can only live one life.
The angry Man Etu swung the sword in his hand very quickly, knocking down many soldiers who were blocking him to the ground.
This time, no one can stop him.
Approaching at such a high speed, the power of the arrows has been greatly reduced.
After Su Qi'an shot a round of arrows, he put the gentian bow behind his back and said hello, and a big knife also appeared in his hand.
In his eyes, there was only a figure with a ferocious face, and the soldiers on both sides, as if there was a tacit understanding, consciously vacated some areas.
A long trail appeared, and Su Qi'an, with his legs wrapped around the horse, also rushed towards the man's forehead.
This is a battle between the generals of both sides. In war, this method is not approved, but in some cases, it is necessary for the generals of both sides to duel in this way to improve the morale of the army.
In the barbaric picture, Su Qian's speed was very fast, and he passed by each other directly. The soldiers fighting on both sides could not even see the fight, only the sound of metal collision could be heard.
Then, Su Qi'an and Man Etu separated with their backs to each other.
However, this calmness did not last long. Soon, Man'etu's body stiffened, the sword in his hand fell, and his body fell directly from the horse.
Scarlet blood was left on the ground. On the other hand, Su Qian's face was calm and the sword in his hand was held high.
In an instant, an overwhelming sound erupted from behind.
"Brothers, Mr. Su has already given us a demonstration. Charge with me and kill them all!"
In an instant, the new army burst out with tyrannical power, their faces turned red, everyone roared, and they rushed forward.
As for the Da Rong soldiers, their morale was low due to the death of their leader, Man Etu. Seeing this group of desperate new troops rushing towards them, their morale suddenly became unstable and they began to flee crazily.
Gou Sheng and a group of new troops did not rush to the front with the new troops, but protected Su Qi'an.
Su Qi'an, who was sitting on horseback, breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the chaotic formation of the Da Rong soldiers in front.
If you look carefully, you will find that Su Qian's face is a little pale, and a stream of blood comes from his other arm.
This scene was discovered by the attentive Gou Sheng, "Sir, are you injured?"
Su Qian shook his head and hissed at Gou Sheng, who looked anxious.
"Keep your voice down, don't let them hear. It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."
Gou Sheng nodded and quickly found someone to quickly stop Su Qi'an's bleeding.
After some manipulation, the wound was finally stopped.
Su Qian looked at the scars on her arms and sighed inwardly.
Man Foretu, the leader of the Invalid Army, is really powerful. He is worthy of being one of the warriors under Ku Shu.
Fortunately, Su Qi'an took precautions in advance, and it's also because Man'etu was careless and was a little naughty towards Su Qi'an.
Generally speaking, archers are not strong in melee combat, because they focus all their energy on archery. Once they get close, they will most likely die.
Who knew that Su Qian's melee combat skills would be so strong? He was truly an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs.
Su Qi'an has never exposed his melee abilities. To survive in Great Liang, you must keep a few trump cards.
The 20,000 soldiers who were blocking them now began to disorganize themselves and were on the verge of being defeated.
Su Qian turned his head and said to Gou Sheng, "It's almost done. We can make the final plan."
Gou Sheng nodded, then took a long bow and shot a loud arrow towards the horizon, as if to send a signal to someone.
…
At the same time, Ku Shu, who led an army of 50,000 in the front and frantically blocked the attack, soon received the news of Man Etu's death.
This news came so unexpectedly that Ku Shu was stunned for a moment.
Kushu was not surprised that Man'etu died in battle, but the 20,000 elite men under his command were defeated again by Su Qian in the same shameful way as Liu Shengming.
This made Ku Shu unable to understand or accept at all. Who is this Su Qian? Is he a god? What kind of heavenly soldiers and generals are his slaves?
He was so capable that he defeated the 20,000 elite troops led by Man Etu with only 5,000 troops.
This kind of blow was really a series, and it was a very heavy blow to the morale of Daei army.
Cook's surgery must do something to reverse this unfavorable situation.
While Ku Shu was thinking, a piece of news came.
The new army, which had defeated 20,000 elite soldiers, was heading towards them at an alarming speed.
This news made Ku Shu very angry. What did Su Qian want to do? Could it be that he still wanted to defeat him with these thousands of troops? This was a joke.
Kushu sneered, determined to meet this Su Qian personally.
Ku Shu only ordered 5,000 men and horses, intending to destroy Su Qi'an.
But when he had just mounted his horse and was about to set off, a counselor tried his best to stop him.
In addition to Liu Shengming, there are three superior counselors who are not lower than him in Kushu's army heading south this time.
"Your Highness, you must not go there in person, this is probably a trap."
"Huh? It's a trap. Even if it's a trap, I'm still afraid of thousands of people."
Kushu made an angry noise, clamped his legs on the horse, and said he wanted to go out in person to fight.
The three counselors grabbed the horse's rope and said quickly.
"No one doubts His Highness's bravery, but this Su Qi'an has always been cunning and cunning. He defeated General Barbarian's elite with five thousand troops, and now he comes straight to His Highness with this few troops."
"What does this mean? This is a trap to anger His Highness. The purpose is to let His Highness go out in person. When His Highness falls into the trap, Su Qian will be surrounded by a large army, and then Your Highness will be in danger."
"Yes, Mr. Gao is right. As far as we know, Su Qi'an conquered five border cities without expanding his troops at all. This is abnormal in itself. Su Qi'an must have hidden this part of the army in order to deceive His Highness."
"Yes, I hope Your Highness will think about the army and think twice."
Kushu's eyes flashed, as if hesitating, and he obviously listened to what the three counselors said.
At this moment, the guard ran over shouting, "Your Highness, it's bad, one of Fan Wenzhong's frontier troops has broken through our left defense line and headed straight for our camp."
"Report, our army's third line of defense on the right wing has been breached by the Liang army. It is five miles away from our army's camp."
It is true that the house leaks and it rains all night. The more bad news comes one after another at this time.
It seems that the news that Man'etu and his 20,000 elite troops were defeated could no longer be concealed, which caused Fan Wenzhong's troops to become even more crazy.
The honorable soldiers are warlike, but if they want to stop the cold soldiers who are twice their size, the pressure is great.
Kushu frowned. He didn't expect that a good hand of cards would be played like this in his hand.
In this emergency situation, the best policy at present is to withdraw the troops.
Two consecutive failed withdrawals will definitely have a huge impact on the morale of the soldiers, but if they don't withdraw, they will be in danger of being eaten.
At this moment, suddenly, the ground behind started to shake, as if something terrifying was slowly coming.
Everyone looked around and saw that at the end of the rear, smoke was rising. At the end of the line of sight, there seemed to be countless flags fluttering in the wind, and the overwhelming sound of killing followed.
The expressions of the three counselors changed and they said anxiously, "Your Highness, withdraw your troops quickly. Look, this is Su Qi'an's hidden army. It looks like the size is at least over 30,000!"
"If His Highness still hesitates, we are likely to be eaten. Your Highness gathers the troops and withdraws!"
Kushu's face was solemn and his brows were furrowed. He couldn't figure out how this Su Qian could have such great ability. In just half a month, he could raise an army of more than 50,000 people.
But the movement coming from the end of his line of sight made him disbelief.
If this is Su Qian's ability, then this person must not be retained.
Finally, at this moment, Ku Shu came up with the idea of getting rid of Su Qian.
If such people are allowed to live, sooner or later they will be a threat to Dayong.
But to get rid of Su Qi'an, we have to discuss it in the long run. Cook Shu took a deep breath and said.
"Send the order, withdraw the troops!"
Soon, 50,000 Daei soldiers broke through the encirclement before the three parties could completely encircle them.
Chapter completed!
