    Chapter 211 Yan Shuang

    Thick clouds emerged majestically, swallowing up the skylight.A group of eagles from Libei crossed the vast expanse of sky, swooped down fiercely, spread their wings amidst the chirping sound, dispersed the mist, and looked down at the white snow.The falcons came from the south, like a volley of sharp arrows, soaring straight towards the eagles.With a fierce roar, he turned around and brushed against the military flag below, and the sound of war drums instantly resounded throughout the tiankeng.

    The cavalry were like a wave, coming from the south.

    The cavalry remained motionless. When he could see the cavalry’s scimitar clearly, Yin Chang pulled out the old sword with a clang and shouted to the sky: “Ditch -!”

    The Imperial Guards who were crawling in the snow immediately let go. As soon as the ropes at both ends fell off, the newly dug horizontal ditch was exposed in front of them.The Biansha cavalry, known for their speed, rushed across the ditch. The horses could not stop. They fell into the horizontal ditch, and their front knees immediately broke with a “哢” sound.

    The forward cavalry rolled into the horizontal ditch and fell into disarray.The Imperial Guards immediately drew their swords, wolves pounced down, and fought with the forwards in the ditch.The cavalry in the rear did not slow down, jumped over the ditch and continued to charge forward.

    Yin Chang cut down the cavalry and had to avoid the horse’s hoofs flying overhead. If he wasn’t careful, he might be hoofed to death.The cat got dressed and shouted at the other end: “Tiger, what’s the matter with you? You’ve dug a narrow hole!”

    Tantai Hu’s palms were sweaty, and he stared at the galloping cavalry. He heard Yin Chang’s call, but he didn’t dare to answer distractedly.He held his two swords and silently recited Tantai Long’s name.

    By the time the pony was about to reach its face, the cavalry’s scimitar had already struck. The Tantai Tiger rolled forward. Xiao Chiye, who was behind, suddenly thrust out his Wolf Saber and stabbed the opponent through with the momentum of the cavalry.Blood splashed, Tantai Tiger and the garrison squatted down and slashed, directly cutting off the pony’s legs.

    The war horse neighed horribly, like a goose that had lost its wings, and fell to the ground with its neck raised.The cavalry fell off their horses and rolled away. Tantai Hu wiped the blood on his face, picked up his two swords, and shouted: “Revenge!”

    The cavalry suffered continuous setbacks, weakened their momentum, and refused to rush forward rashly. However, the distance had been shortened. They wanted to retreat, but Xiao Chiye advanced.

    Xiao Chiye lightly knocked the horse’s belly with the back of his knife, and rushed straight out.The hoofbeats of the Libei cavalry were as heavy as thunder, driving the snow and wind, knocking the cavalry formation into pieces.The “chariot” does not allow the cavalry to breathe. As long as they are knocked to the ground by the heavy armor, the iron hoofs will trample the flesh and blood and run over the cavalry.

    The falcon tried to escape eastward with the wind blowing overhead.Sweeping through the snow and swooping down, the hook grabbed the falcon, tore off one of its wings as it passed by the Libei Wolf Flag, and then threw the falcon away.

    The tide of cavalry receded, and the young generals among them galloped and shouted, withdrawing the ordinary cavalry, and scolded the scorpions in Biansha dialect to advance.The scimitar immediately closed, watching the Libei cavalry retreat.

    Xiao Chiye returned to the formation slowly, and the columns protruding from all sides quickly merged.The scorpions took the place of the vanguard, and the hammer they wielded no longer faced one cavalry, but a group of cavalry.

    Xiao Chiye took the lead in the charge. He suddenly put away the Wolf Sword in the guest room, and the cavalry behind him released the terrifying new knife with a “swish” in response to his movements.Xiao Chiye leaned over slightly, and they were like a flash of cold light in the night, stabbing hard into Scorpion’s team.

    Xiao Chiye flipped the longer handle of the knife with both hands and took away Scorpion’s head as the horse passed by.The blade of the long knife was thinned to reduce weight, and the throat could be cut in the blink of an eye.Blood suddenly sprayed against the heavy armor, splashed out along the iron arms, and sprinkled on the snow.

    The hammer couldn’t keep up with the speed of the sword, and it couldn’t swing the cavalry itself. They could only watch as the Libei cavalry charged into the formation and cut their own team in half.

    Lang Tao Xuejin broke through the encirclement of the cavalry and turned around with a breath of air.Xiao Chiye tilted his long knife and shook off the sticky blood on the blade.

    The scorpions on both sides gasped and watched as the center forwards all fell. Blood flowed wherever Xiao Chiye passed, and the long knife almost scraped off the heads of all the people who blocked him.

    Scorpion reined in the reins and murmured in Biansha dialect: “Chi Daqi…”

    The Libei Iron Cavalry drove their horses again, but the Scorpions turned their horses’ heads when the muffled thunder started, refusing to fight any more.The young cavalry general in the rear saw the scorpions retreating and hurriedly waved their swords to scold them, but to no avail. The scorpions were already timid. After losing their leader, they became sacrifices on this battlefield.

    Lang Tao Xuejin rushed out, followed by the Libei cavalry group.

    The cavalry on the south side of the sinkhole were unable to resist, and their scimitars could not penetrate the hard heavy armor.The cavalry who lost their horses scrambled and ran wildly in the snow. They gasped rapidly, like a torrent that burst a dike.The Libei cavalry shook the snow, and the lagging cavalry fell to the ground, and the scimitar fell out. Before he could reach out to pull out the thorn, it was directly swallowed by the cavalry’s hoofs.

    Xiao Chiye stood out from the edge of the formation and chased the cavalry, just like Xiao Fangxu chased the cavalry thirty years ago, showing no mercy under the iron hoof.The Libei Iron Cavalry charged forward violently, their heavy armor crossing the battlefield in a murderous manner, turning into a heavy sword being unsheathed in the eyes of Tantai Tiger.

    Scorpion shouted sharply among the galloping horses: “Chidaqi!”

    Bad wolf!

    Seven years ago, Xiao Jiming led his troops south, known as the Iron Horse Glacier. That night Xiao Chiye chased the Biansha cavalry for twenty miles, and there was an echo when he stepped on the ground.

    “What the hell…” Yin Chang’s throat rolled, and he wiped the blood on his face, muttering to himself.

    Severe frost passes through, leaving not a blade of grass behind.

    * * *

    Shen Zechuan was making tea in the tent. The master was not good at this, so he just put the raw tea into the teapot, then filled it with water and put it on the fire.He had a folding fan resting on his knees, with cases piled beside him, but his eyes were fixed on the tea, watching it gradually boil and “gurgling” against the bubbles.

    Hai Rigu squatted at the door of the tent, peeked through the gap, and said to Fei Sheng, “Can’t you cook and drink like this?”

    Fei Sheng didn’t like the scorpion. He folded his arms and looked ahead. Listening to the sound of war drums, he said, “You can’t drink. What the hell are you doing?”

    Shen Zechuan was stunned for a long time. When he came to his senses, the tea was almost dry. He picked it up, added water, and continued to boil.The sound of boiling water can cover up some of the sound of war drums. He was knocked into a trance by the sound and did nothing tonight.

    Fei Sheng saw that it was already late, so he opened the curtain and came in. He said softly to Shen Zechuan, “Master, take a nap? I will call you as soon as there is news from the front.”

    Shen Zechuan lowered his eyes and did not answer.

    Fei Sheng understood that the prince was unwilling, and he did not dare to persuade him any more, so he returned to the door of the tent and waited.The tea had been boiling in the military tent all night. When it was almost dawn, Shen Zechuan heard the sound of war drums and stopped.

    Shen Zechuan stood up and opened the curtain. Fei Sheng hurriedly put on his cloak and accompanied Shen Zechuan out of the tent and walked out.Shen Zechuan waited for another moment in the bright snow and fog.It was very cold in the morning. If I stood for a long time, the tip of my nose would turn red from the cold, and the cold wind would hit my face like a knife.After less than half an hour, Shen Zechuan suddenly heard the sound of horse hoofbeats, followed by double shadows, and was the first to return to camp.

    Fei Sheng breathed a sigh of relief and immediately congratulated Shen Zechuan: “Master, it’s done!”

    He whirled violently and wanted to land on Shen Zechuan’s arm.Shen Zechuan was not wearing an armband today. When he raised his arm, a whistle came from the other end.

    Xiao Chiye broke through the thick fog and carried Shen Zechuan away as he rushed into the camp without stopping.Lang Tao Xuejin slowed down, turned around, and led the two of them into the snow and mist again.He jumped out of the air and landed on the military flag. He stared at them running away and wiped his paws clean.

    Yin Chang was carrying his trophies and wanted to say something, but Fei Sheng pushed him back and didn’t let him open his mouth.The others had different expressions. Tantai Hu spat on his palms, rubbed them to warm them up, and said: “… Let’s go to the tent first. The military affairs can be reported later. There is no rush now.”

    After he finished speaking, he repeated it again in a subtle way.

    “Don’t be in a hurry right now.”

    “Why aren’t you in a hurry?” Yin Chang stretched his neck and looked around, wondering, “I have to go back to the city at the end of the day, but the Lord is in a hurry!
