C66 How Could Hu Man Block His Way(part I)

Wuu! The muffled and cool sound of the horn resonated under the Tanhan Shan's foot at dusk. "As the horn sounded, over five thousand sturdy and sturdy cavalry of Xianbei began to form a formation on the west side of the pontoon bridge.

The leader of the cavalry of Xianbei was a burly man who was nine feet tall. He had thick eyebrows, copper eyes, and a face full of muscles. His subordinates were all wearing dome-shaped leather hats, but he was bare-headed and his hair was braided, making him look even more ferocious.

After the Xianbei People had lined up for about two incense sticks of time, he rode on the east side of the pontoon bridge and shouted from afar: "Report to Prince Zuo Xian, Gongsun Xu has already traveled fifteen miles!"

After the unification of Tan Shihuai, some of the official positions of the Huns were followed. Among them, there was the left and right wise king, Prince Zuo Xian, who was more powerful. At the beginning of the succession, Prince Zuo Xian was assumed by Kebineng. Later on, Kebineng's strength rose dramatically and Prince Zuo Xian had to be given the title of 'Little Wang' while Prince Zuo Xian fell into the hands of Kebineng's trusted subordinate, Su Li.

The fierce-looking burly man was Prince Zuo Xian and Su Li.

Su Li raised his right hand into the air and shouted in a muffled voice, "Brothers, get back up! We need to show our prowess to the Chinese later!"

"Here!" Thousands of people responded in unison, startling a large flock of birds that were looking for food on the mountainside. They drew their bows, their swords drawn, their eyes fixed on the road to the east.

Roughly half an hour later, the faint sound of hooves could be heard from the other side of the floating bridge. The sound was getting louder and louder until the first horse appeared from the bottom of the mountain.

Su Li and many of his subordinates' faces changed drastically. How long would it take for such a uniform set of hoof steps to be achieved through practice and coordination? How terrifying would the combat ability of such an army be?

When all of White Horse Camp's cavalry appeared before them, many of Su Li's men started to retreat. Compared to the army in front of them, their equipment was no different from a beggar's — this army's equipment was actually completely the same: shiny black armor and helmet, long black boots, a four foot long ring head knife, powerful crossbow on their backs, and their calm and composed faces. All of these showed that this army was definitely not a kind person! Let alone these people, even Kebineng's most elite cavalry soldiers could not compare to this troop of Youzhou cavalry soldiers!

Su Li keenly noticed the fear in his men. He waved his arms and shouted, "The Tanhan Shan is behind us, King Tanshihuai's spirit in heaven is watching us! If anyone dares to be a coward facing a battle, they will be mercilessly killed! "

The floating morale gradually calmed down. To these Xianbei People, Tan Shihuai was like a god to them. No one dared to show fear after Su Li mentioned Tan Shihuai's name.

The cavalry of the White Horse Camp stopped two miles away from the pontoon bridge. Gongsun Jia urged his horse to the side of the river and shouted towards the Xianbei People across the river: "Protect Wu Huan, Academy Officer. "Hurry up and get out of the way!"

Su Li waved his hand, and a Chieftain stepped forward and called out: "Fresh and inferior Prince Zuo Xian Su Li is here! We are guests who have been ordered to visit the Rites of Heavenly Worship. Since you all claim to be the guardians of Wu Huan, Academy Officer, we would like to request General Gongsun Xu to personally bring us an invitation to cross the river! "

When Gongsun Jia heard this, he flew into a rage and personally brought an invitation to cross the river. It was no different from treating Gongsun Xu as a subordinate who had made a mistake! Usually, only when the subordinates who had made a mistake wanted to meet the general or the marshal, they would announce their names one by one. The Xianbei People's Prince Zuo Xian sounded impressive, but Gongsun Xu was the protector of Wu Huan Academy Officer and the direct descendant of Marquis Jin Gongsun Zan. Regardless of status or power, he was on par with the Xianbei People's Prince Zuo Xian.

Su Li waved his hand again, the cavalry of Xianbei under him brandished their weapons and roared loudly: "Cross the river by name! Cross the river by name! Cross the river by name! "

Gongsun Jia decisively took off the longbow on his back and aimed at Chieftain, who shouted earlier.

Xianbei People was furious, a mere little soldier dares to singlehandedly provoke thousands of us? Do you really think that I am untouchable after Tan Shihuai? Hundreds of archers came shooting at Gongsun Jia. As long as Gongsun Jia dared to shoot first, he would be shot like a hedgehog in the next moment!

Gongsun Jia was instantly covered in cold sweat. He gritted his teeth and thought that even if he died, he couldn't lose face for the Gongsun family! He pulled the bowstring to full and prepared to shoot an arrow at Chieftain.

"Big brother, the young master wants you to go back!" At this moment, Gongsun Yi rushed over and stopped Gongsun Jia with a loud voice.

Although Gongsun Jia was unwilling, he was still relieved. He glared at Chieftain viciously and turned his horse to head back the way he came.

"Phew! Phew! Phew!" Xianbei People gave his opponent a show of strength as they waved their weapons and shouted loudly.

"Haha!" Su Li laughed proudly towards the sky. After laughing, he pointed his horsewhip at the other side of the river and disdainfully shouted, "How can the Han people be a match for us fresh and inferior warriors when they are afraid of death? "My sons, if Gongsun Xu were to personally come, then we must properly humiliate him and release him!"

"Huff!" "Huff! Huff!" Xianbei People responded to Su Li with an impassioned roar.

Since they were separated by quite a distance, and Gongsun Xu did not understand the vulgar language, he did not know what was said on the other side. Seeing Gongsun Jia aim his bow at the opposite side, he was shocked. He quickly told Gongsun Yi to call someone back. When Gongsun Jia ran up to him, he immediately asked for the reason.

Gongsun Jia cupped his fist and said angrily: "Reporting to young master, the young master is actually going to cross the river under the name of the young master, Prince Zuo Xian! How could this lowly person tolerate such humiliation! Even if I have to risk my life, I will show them how powerful I am! "

Gongsun Xu pressed his hand down to let Gongsun Jia calm down. He turned around and asked Yan Rou, "Is Prince Zuo Xian Su Li?"

Yan Rou immediately bowed and replied, "Yes! "This person is brave and reckless. He is Kebineng's most trusted general. If he does this, it is very possible that he is under Kebineng's command."

Gongsun Xu turned around and asked Guo Jia, "What do you think about this?"

Guo Jia pointed to the other side of the river and laughed, "It's just a bunch of useless people, why should we worry, my lord?"

"Haha!" Gongsun Xu laughed, "What Feng Xiao said is extremely true. He is just a mere Prince Zuo Xian, how could I pay any attention to him!?" "Pass down the order, we will slowly advance in formation. If the enemy makes the first move, we will immediately attack!"

"Here!"

At this moment, Er Yu was pretending to be a soldier and was riding behind Gongsun Xu. When she saw Gongsun Xu's domineering and imposing manner, her beautiful eyes couldn't help but look around.

'A seductress! ' Nearby, Mo Bingmei saw Er Yu's expression and cursed in her heart.

Previously, the two of them had been fighting nonstop. Although they were stopped by Gongsun Xu, they had never stopped mocking and ridiculing each other on the journey back and forth. Gongsun Xu was very surprised. Mo Bingmei had always been as cold as ice, but why was she like Er Yu? However, he offended the two girls at the same time and was scolded by Er Yu in a roundabout way. He didn't dare to join in the fun on the way, so he could only pretend that he didn't see anything.

In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, the soldiers had already arranged themselves into a wedge shaped formation under Zhao Yun's command. They followed Gongsun Xu's banner as they slowly approached the river.

Su Li was a little surprised. Gu Panpan asked, "Are you preparing to charge over, Gongsun kid?"

One Chieftain answered, "Prince Zuo Xian, Gongsun Xu is probably just putting on an attitude, this is the Tanhan Shan, not the Youzhou! Seeing that Gongsun Xu only has three to four thousand people, how could he dare to be so unbridled in Tanhan Shan? "

Su Li praised: "That makes sense! Children, prepare your bows and arrows! If Gongsun kid dares to rush over, I will immediately fire at him! "

As they spoke, the White Horse Camp's cavalry was already less than a hundred steps away from the pontoon bridge.

Gongsun Xu covered his eyes with his hand and looked in front of him. He turned his head and whispered, "Lady Er Yu, if I give the order to attack, how long will it take for you and the King to arrive?"

"Probably." Er Yu thought for a moment and said softly, "Probably around an hour!" The troops of his company were stationed near the palace. Even if they were fast, it would still take them at least an hour to arrive. Moreover, there was an eighty to eighty percent chance of that happening. Nine will be hindered by Kebineng and Bu Dugen! "

Gongsun Xu sneered and said confidently, "One hour is enough to defeat them! "I'll go up and shout. If you don't get out of the way within ten breaths, you have to bear the consequences!"

If Gongsun Xu had not known about the plotting, he definitely would not have brazenly ordered his men to attack. Since he clearly knew that they would be in trouble if they were to fight against Su Li, how could he let go of this good opportunity to make the White Horse Camp famous?

Gongsun Jia was overjoyed. Once again, he rode his horse to the river bank and used all his strength to shout, "Listen up. Protect Wu Huan and Academy Officer. If you don't move aside within ten breaths, you have to bear the consequences!"

Xianbei People was suddenly in an uproar, as they all looked at Su Li. They were all subordinates of Su Li. Life and death were at the mercy of Su Li's thoughts. Therefore, even though many people were muttering in their hearts, no one dared to say it out loud.

"Prepare to shoot!" Su Li roared and waved the machete in his hand that was encrusted with gold and silver gems. How could the majestic Prince Zuo Xian be scared off by a single sentence from the Chinese in front of everyone?

Guo Jia laughed and cupped his hands with a relaxed expression, "My lord, it seems like Su Li is determined to stop them!"

Gongsun Xu sneered: "Since the establishment of White Horse Camp, this is the first time the cavalry has gone out to fight. Since Su Li wants to make this chicken, how can I not be what he wants? "Zi Long, I shall leave it to you!" With that, he and Guo Jia moved to the side and handed over the command to Zhao Yun.

"I will not let you down!" Zhao Yun shouted, pulling down the visor on his helmet.

At this moment, the helmet had no mask, which meant that the entire face could not be protected. It was very dangerous to charge at it. The White Horse Camp Cavalry's helmet was created by Gongsun Xu, he specially added a sinister ghost mask. It could increase defense and deter enemies, killing two birds with one stone.

The three thousand five hundred people pulled down their masks, looking like a group of devils from hell.

The Xianbei People was immediately in chaos, the horses under them were even more frightened and irritable, they continuously whinnied and kicked their legs, continuously throwing dozens of people off their horses.

"Release the arrows!" Su Li saw that the situation was bad and decisively gave the order to strike first.

In an instant, thousands of arrows flew across the river like dark clouds.

Zhao Yun Chang gave the order to charge with his spear.
