Chapter 51, Night Ride and Fight

Zu Zhao, Zu Ji, Han Dang and others chased all the way, seeing that they were getting closer and closer to those riders.

The thieves in front of them sensed the movement in the rear, but the seats were uneven, and there was nothing they could do no matter how fast they wanted.

At this moment, there was a burst of fire farther to the west, and the stars were approaching from far to this side.

The thief was shocked by the situation. They knew that there was no other help nearby. Combined with what was happening in front of them, they subconsciously thought that there was another officer in front of them. They immediately turned around and fled to the northeast.

Zu Zhao and others who followed him took advantage of this opportunity to speed up the speed of the horse and soon approached each other by more than 100 steps. They also saw the firelight in the east. Although the firelight was as thin as beans and should be far away, the other party moved very fast. It could be seen that another team of knights galloped with torches. According to the rough calculation of the firelight, there are at least 20 people.

"Son, look at the west. Who are they?" Zu Ji pointed to the east and shouted.

"Can you be an officer or a soldier?" Gongsun Long guessed.

"If it were officers and soldiers, how would there be only such a few people?" Han Dang said.

"Never mind that much, since they hold the lights, nine out of ten are not gangsters. I'll catch up with those thieves first. Zu Zhao made a quick judgment and said resolutely.

Everyone had no objection, and the horse followed closely behind the thieves.

Not long after chasing, there was a sudden movement behind the hills in the northwest. Continuing for a while, a surging dark shadow slowly appeared behind the hill, but it was another riding team. Don't you say that the thieves who fled in front of them were shocked? Even Zu Zhao and others were stunned first and didn't react for a moment. How could they suddenly appear so many mysterious people tonight? However, it didn't take long to hear the shouting sound of the riding team behind the hills, which turned out to be the first batch of horsebacks. The two sides made a mistake, from west to east and from east to west. After a circle in the wilderness, they met again.

When the thief who had fled before saw Hu Qi, he quickly greeted him like a life-saving straw.

They didn't expect that on the other side of the hill behind Hu Qi, there were a large number of ancestral knights rushing like crazy and losing their minds.

"Zunzi, there are few people such as us, and I'm afraid it's unfavorable to meet each other head-on." Han Dangdang said immediately.

Zu Zhao carefully checked the cavalry team running from the hills and found that these people were frequently looking back and shooting arrows, which showed that they were being chased by the rear. At this time, if you don't take the opportunity to make a summary, how can you defeat this thief in a short time?

"There must be someone chasing behind Hu Qi. I'll wait for a blow, head-on, and rush into the Huqi formation." Zu Zhao said decisively.

Han Dang didn't say anything. He was not greedy and afraid of death, but just worried that Zu Zhao was young and unbearable and deliberately involved in danger! Unfortunately, they are running wildly now, and it is difficult to persuade each other.

"Gentlemen, dare to follow me to break through the battle and kill the enemy!" At this time, Zu Zhao shouted to the left and right out of morale.

Hearing this bold words, although there were less than ten people on the left and right, they were also very excited and all agreed.

"Wish to fight with the eldest son!"

"Why are you afraid of thieves? Come on!"

For Hu Qi, their energy is all focused on dealing with the pursuit of the brigade behind them. When they found that two teams of front and one rear suddenly appeared in front of them, they failed to react too timely. Until he found that the first team was an accomplice, he naturally mistook the team for the team who fell behind. Therefore, they didn't care much about the two teams in front of them and continued to focus on the large group of knights behind them.

However, after only a moment, several Hu Qi, who led the team in front of them, found that the approaching accomplices did not slow down and were still shouting in a mess. If these accomplices do not adjust the speed and direction of the march, they are bound to cross through the middle of the team, which will disrupt their original formation. In addition, in case the people behind them fail to return to shoot arrows, there will even be a collision accident.

Gradually, several Hu Qi, who led the team, realized that the situation was not good.

It's just that they have just crossed a hill and are currently on a downward trend, and the team has no way to turn for a while.

The first thief rider quickly crashed into the Huqi team. At first, they also felt strange. It was not until they came to the rear through the Huqi team that they found that Huqi was also chased by people. In a hurry, they quickly chased the reins and turned around to follow Hu Qi. Instead of being alone, they might as well be with their accomplices. At least they could die together.

The whole Huqi, which was not a reliable formation, suddenly became looser.

Zu Zhao, Zu Ji, Han Dang and others took this opportunity to rush against the Hu cavalry team's head halberd.

Several Hu riders who led the team saw that the man and horse who thought they were a fallen accomplice actually waved at each other. They all changed their faces and shouted loudly. It's just that everything changed too fast, and they rode against each other and ran fast. Their words were not complete, and the cold light of the horse halberd had hit their faces.

Zu Zhao rushed to the front and locked a left-handed Huqi. Before the other party took out the knife, he waved the halberd in his hand with lightning speed. Even if the Huqi finally blocked the blow with a knife grid, the powerful riding impact and Zu Zhao's explosive arm strength directly slapped Hu Qi off the horse and was then crushed by his companions behind him.

"Thieves, die!" Not far away, Zu Ji shouted, and the horse halberd had stabbed another Hu Qi.

In the whole Hu cavalry team, only the front seven or eight people were holding blades, while more than 30 people in the back held bows. The Hu people's mount is equipped with a pair of cushions. Under the cushions are bags, and the long blades they use are placed on the bags. I thought that just keeping a distance from the enemy along the way and using bows and arrows to attack from a long distance would be enough to drag these people down. But I didn't expect that at this moment, another person suddenly appeared head-on, and it was still under the momentum of going downhill, so that even if he was prepared for precautions, he would not be able to reverse it for a while.

Although Zu Zhao and his party were not many, they were like a sharp sword and abruptly inserted into Hu Qi's queue.

After solving the first few Hu people who still have the power to fight back, the remaining Hu people with the bow have no response to the horse halberd, even a single protective block is impossible. The horse halberd waved, and the barbarian instinctively blocked it with his bow and arm, and the result was that the bow and the man were cut off together. Where Zu Zhao, Zu Ji, Han Dang and others have passed, the Buddha is a deadly poison. The Hu people they come into contact with have fallen off their horses one after another.

After running through the whole Hu cavalry team, I happened to see Zu Ke and Zu Li over the hill with the brigade.

"Big son, it's them. I saw Zhang Wenyi." Zu Ji shouted excitedly.

When Zu Zhao saw this scene, he already knew what the situation was. Without hesitation, he immediately turned the reins and turned the horse's head back.

"Keep chasing, don't leave these thieves." He shouted loudly.

Han Dang, Gongsun Long and others soon met, grabbed the reins one after another, returned to the horse and continued to chase.

Huqi's formation has been chaotic, and morale has gradually collapsed. Coupled with those unsociable thieves, the team is like a plate of scattered sand.

With a strong horse, Zu Zhao quickly caught up with a thief. The horse halberd stabbed straight through the man's chest. His arms exerted strength, shouted, raised the halberd in his hand, and actually picked up the man and threw him behind him. Blood splashed everywhere.

When other thieves saw this scene, they were all frightened. Zu Zhao was just a teenager who was not weak. They didn't expect to make such a bloody and cruel move under his power, which was really shocking.

While chasing, I suddenly saw the sound of horses in the east. It was the firelight I saw earlier, and now it was already close.

The firelight is getting closer and closer, enough to see people and horse shadows. Sure enough, it is another team of light knights. Most of the knights held sabers and rushed to meet the team of Hu Qi and thieves. As they approached the Huqi front-drive team, the knights who had been holding torches one after another, pulled out their knives out of their sheaths, and shouted everywhere.

"Where does the thief escape!"

"If you don't give up, you can still be captured!"

Hu Qi and the remnants were all very frightful. Just after a round of hedging, they thought they could take a breath to adjust the team, but in a flash, another team came. Everyone bravely fought, and many Hu people directly lost their horse bows and picked up weapons from their bags for short soldiers.

Zu Zhao, Han Dang and others who chased behind were close to the end of the Hu cavalry team and caught up with several thieves one after another, all of which fell off the horse. Everyone is murderous, and the smell of hot blood stimulates all senses, inspiring the deepest hidden beast-like killing heart of human nature. This feeling of killing is like drinking good wine, which makes people unable to stop and makes people happy.
