Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 121 Entering Sanping Pass

More than a thousand cavalry roared out from Sanping Pass.

The scouts of the Yun army scattered outside the pass saw a group of cavalry wearing Xia army armor roaring out. They thought it was the Xia army attacking, and quickly warned with beacon fire.

The Yun army camp not far away reacted accordingly.A moment later, a frontier general led his soldiers out of the camp to meet the enemy.

But when he saw the cavalry rushing towards him, the general of the frontier army, who had an unhappy expression, was immediately overjoyed, and hurried up to meet Xiao Cheng. He immediately got off his horse and saluted respectfully:

"Little general, pay homage to Your Majesty! Although we are only Your Majesty's martial arts, we are still worried about His Majesty's safety. Now that the dragon body is safe and sound, I can rest assured!"

Xiao Cheng reined in the reins, stopped the horse, looked at the kneeling general in front of him, and said in a deep voice:

"Have the five thousand cavalry sent to meet me ever returned?"

When the general heard this, he hurriedly cupped his hands and said:

"Your Majesty, the [-] cavalry have yet to return without hearing from His Majesty!"

Xiao Cheng frowned and said:
"How many soldiers and horses are stationed here?"

"The last general is here mainly to guard against the [-] Xia troops stationed in Wuzhou, so there are only more than [-] soldiers under his command!" The frontier general said quickly.

Xiao Cheng pondered for a moment, then immediately said:
"Hurry up and lead the troops to occupy Sanping Pass! And send out scouts to scout the horses, find the soldiers who went to meet them, and let them withdraw from Sanping Pass to the country!"

Hearing this, the frontier general subconsciously looked at Sanping Pass in the distance, and could not help but gasp.

Seeing this majestic pass lying on the southwestern border of Xia Kingdom, which has resisted foreign enemies for hundreds of years, the gate has been smashed to pieces.

He, who hadn't reacted just now, suddenly realized at this moment that his Majesty, who personally led the army to invade the hinterland of Xia Kingdom, led more than a thousand cavalry to conquer this majestic pass guarded by heavy troops.

"Quickly mobilize troops and horses to take over Sanping Pass!" Seeing the astonishment on the faces of the frontier generals, Xiao Cheng frowned and said again.

The frontier general came back to his senses, lowered his head to hide the horror and awe on his face, and hurriedly cupped his hands and replied:

"Yes!"

And at this moment, the Xia Guo cavalry who came after them also came to Sanping Pass.

Looking at the majestic closed door that was shattered in front of him, the leading general Xia Jun murmured with trembling lips:
"Is this still a human?"

The general beside him also swallowed his saliva, and said cautiously:

"General, are we still going after him?"

Hearing the words, the leading general immediately hesitated.

Let's go after it, just look at the Sanping pass that has been breached, and you know how dangerous it is to continue chasing.But if you don't chase, the leader, but the commander of the Southwest Frontier Army, the person His Royal Highness King Qi wants, easily gives up chasing, and he will be punished later.

After a moment of silence, the leading general of the Xia army, after weighing it over and over again, finally gritted his teeth and said in a low voice:

"His Royal Highness King Qi is strict with the army. Even the lawless southwestern generals would not dare to fall into his hands... You can't fall into the trap of others, you have to chase them! Anyway, the place not far outside the pass is where the Yunjun camp is stationed." Land, let's chase after it, and come back as soon as we feel like it!"

The general beside him breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and said:

"The general is kind and willing to listen to the general's orders!"

The leading general Xia Jun nodded, waved his hand, and said:

"rush!"

Thousands of Xia Guo cavalry rushed through the broken Sanping Pass and chased after the thousands of cavalry in a leisurely manner.

Although Xia Jun was just showing off, the noise he made when he sprinted was not small, which immediately woke up the people on Yun Jun's side.

Xiao Cheng turned his head, seeing that Xia Jun still dared to catch up, he frowned slightly.

Five thousand elite cavalry broke into the enemy's territory in order to support themselves, and we must not ignore it!

His face turned cold, he looked around at the thousands of cavalrymen, and said in a deep voice:
"Soldiers, do you have the guts to charge and kill with me again?"

Seeing Xiao Cheng's voice, the cavalry officers and soldiers, who were exhausted at first, had hot eyes, their expressions cheered up again, and they shouted in unison:
"Follow Your Majesty's orders!"

Xiao Cheng turned his horse's head around, pulled out the Fury Dragon Sword from his waist, roared loudly, and said:
"Kill! Those who dare to pursue will not be spared!"

"Pieces of armor are not left behind!"

More than a thousand cavalry shouted together, and the sound shook all directions, with a murderous aura, straight to the sky.

In the line of sight that ordinary people can't see, bursts of murderous aura continuously gathered on Xiao Cheng's body, circulated non-stop along his body, and then fed back to the cavalry.

Gradually, the bursts of killing intent became more solid and terrifying.

Indistinctly, it even echoes with various auras between the heaven and the earth, turning into a blood-colored radiance, covering the heads of the cavalry.

This bloody radiance condensed into an unknown phantom.Although the physical signs and face of this phantom were still unclear, it was a little clearer than before, and it was vaguely seen as a four-legged strange beast.

The blood-colored beast looked like it was looking up to the sky and roaring, its blood-colored brilliance all over its body, making it even more dazzling.

Under the brilliance of this bloody beast, the energetic cavalrymen of the Yun Kingdom suddenly felt a surge of heat in their meridians, which shocked their spirits.

General Xia Jun, looking at the cloud cavalry who came charging suddenly in the distance, his eyes popped up, he pointed forward, and stammered:

"They, they dare to come? I just pretend to explain to the superiors, why are they so ignorant!"

As he spoke, General Xia Jun's tone even became a little aggrieved.

The general next to him looked at the murderous cloud cavalry, his heart skipped a beat, and he said hastily:
"General, the enemy army is in full swing, let's retreat to the pass to resist!"

General Xia Jun was furious when he heard the words, and angrily reprimanded:
"Yunjun is exhausted, and I am even more energetic, but you let me..."

Halfway through the speech, General Xia Jun turned his head and saw in front of him, more than a thousand cavalry galloped forward, with awe-inspiring spirit of killing, they stepped down with their iron hooves, and the sound shook the whole field.

Just taking a look at it from a distance, General Xia Jun suddenly felt startled and his legs trembled.

He licked his lips, felt ruthless in his heart, and said sharply:
"To this general, to this general, to... oops, stay out of the way for now, withdraw!"

In the end, he still couldn't get up.

But think about it, among the cloud army on the opposite side, there are fierce men who can directly smash open the city gate.With the two actions of myself and my subordinates, are they worthy of being opponents?

Seeing the command of the general to retreat, the generals around him knew that they would have an excuse when the superior would be held accountable in the future, so they breathed a sigh of relief, protected General Xia, and retreated into the pass.

This is also the elite Xia Kingdom frontier army who has been on the battlefield for a long time. Seeing the cloud army iron cavalry rolling in at this time, their momentum is so overwhelming that they even feel so heavy that they can't breathe, and they can't help but tremble in their hearts.

When they turned their heads, they saw that their own general had already led a group of generals to withdraw towards the pass.

The morale of Xia Jun's soldiers could no longer stretch.

The originally neat army formation suddenly dispersed, and then all of a sudden emerged at the narrow pass of the pass.

In order to defend against the enemy, the gate of the pass city was originally built narrowly, how could it withstand thousands of people swarming up?

For a while, Xia Jun crowded at the pass, pushing and shoving each other, but they couldn't get in anyway, and the situation became chaotic.

Seeing that Xia Jun was directly frightened to collapse by himself, the faces of more than a thousand Yunjun cavalry couldn't hide their pride and excitement. They picked up their horse speed again, and the voices of shouts of killing exploded.

"Kill!"

"Not a single one!"

The next moment, the sound of iron hoofs came closer, and there was only a "poof" sound of flesh being penetrated.

Xia Jun, who was still pushing his colleagues, suddenly burst into blood and fell to the ground.

Thousands of Yunjun then rushed in, and started a unilateral massacre with Xia Jun, whose back was facing him.

And not far away, the middle-aged man who was observing this place with the secret technique of the Yin-Yang family, suddenly trembled all over when the blood-colored alien beast roared up to the sky, and fell to the ground covering his eyes.

Seeing this, several young people around him rushed forward nervously to help them, and said urgently:

"Teacher, teacher! What's the matter with you?"

"Are you all right?"

The middle-aged man let go of his hands, and the corners of his eyes were already bubbling with blood.He forcibly opened his eyes, the eyes were slightly dim, and wherever he looked, his vision was even more blurred.

With the support of three students, the middle-aged man stood up, waved his hand vigorously, and said in a deep voice:

"It's okay, the secret technique is backfired, just rest for a few days!"

A young student couldn't help but asked aloud:
"Teacher, with your eighth-level cultivation base and the realm of secret art practice, it's okay to look directly at the luck of many emperors and monarchs in this world. But what did you see just now, so that you will suffer such a serious punishment?" Backlash?"

The middle-aged man shook his head and said:

"This emperor of the Yun Kingdom is really extraordinary! I don't know what kind of method he used to condense the killing aura on the battlefield to form all kinds of visions! The aura of the battlefield is fierce and killing, far superior to other auras. Make me suffer from this backlash..."

Several students were stunned when they heard the words,

One of the tall and thin students heard the words, his eyes were shocked, and he said eagerly:
"Gather the spirit of killing? Is this the breath that resisted Xia Jun's arrow rain just now?"

The middle-aged man nodded and said:

"It should be! The suzerain ordered me to come to Yunguo, maybe it has something to do with this matter... Let's go, wait for me to rest for a few days, and then we will enter Yunguo!"

"Yes!" The three disciples saluted quickly upon hearing this.

After all, two of the students, one on the left and one on the right, carefully helped the middle-aged man to leave.

Only the tall and thin student who just made a sound turned his head and looked at the distance steadily. He had already entered the Xia army formation, and the invincible generals of the Yun army burst out with extremely shining expressions in their eyes.

On the battlefield, the unilateral massacre did not last long.

Seeing that he couldn't squeeze in, the clever Xia Jun immediately turned his horse's head and scattered towards both sides of the pass.

Xiao Cheng and the others originally wanted to capture the Sanping Pass and support the [-] cavalry, and they had no intention of chasing the fleeing Xia army.

Half an hour later, the more than 1 Yunjun who arrived late, with shock and surprise in their eyes, officially entered Sanping Pass with the blood of the Xia army flowing all over the place.

For hundreds of years, the Sanping Pass, the southwestern gateway for the Xia Kingdom to resist attacks from southern countries, fell into the hands of another country for the first time.
