Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1121 Thirteen Monks
This familiar voice surprised some of the people present, especially Xiao Yuansui and Yuwen Ye.

This voice is from the good boy!

Even though they had not seen each other for several years, Xiao Yuansui immediately recognized his voice. Although it was still childish, it was extremely firm and brave. Along with that voice, there seemed to be other people's shouts and the rumbling of horse hooves, which shook the ground so much that even the horses they were riding began to sway and pace uneasily.

Xiao Yuansui turned his head hurriedly, and saw a group of black shadows flying towards them in the vast night behind him.

With the help of the flickering light from the torches lit by his men, Xiao Yuansui could see clearly at a glance that the person leading the way was none other than Shan Tong'er!

The child was wearing a blue-gray short coat. It was late at night, the dew was heavy and the wind was biting, but he seemed to be completely unaware of the cold. He ran over with a pair of huge copper hammers in his hands.

Because he came too suddenly, the people around didn't even have time to react, let alone step forward to stop him. But after all, a large group of people formed an encirclement here, blocking his way. Shan Tong'er shouted, "Get out of the way!", and the soldier in front had no time to dodge, and was knocked off his horse by his hammer.

Xiao Yuansui frowned.

Before crossing the river, he had also roughly inquired about the previous battles at Hulao Pass, and knew that Yuwen Ye killed Shan Shiyu, and Shan Tong'er left the Shengguo camp. Because the two had the same surname, he guessed their relationship and the reason why Shan Tong'er left. It's not that he had never thought about finding the child again, but thinking about it again, the main reason why Shan Tong'er left Wanggang Village was not because he was persuaded to surrender by Yuwen Ye, but because he himself had different ideas from Wanggang Village, or from Xiao Yuansui and others. Even later, Shentu Tai led his people to leave for the same reason. In addition, the war at Hulao Pass broke out suddenly, so he didn't spend much energy on it.

Unexpectedly, before he went to look for her, Shan Tong'er suddenly came back and appeared at this time.

And also to rescue Yuwen Ye!

But didn't he leave alone? Where did these people come from?
Xiao Yuansui was puzzled and looked again. He saw about twelve or thirteen people behind the good boy. Although the flickering firelight made it impossible to see their specific appearance, he could barely make out that they were strong and sturdy. They were all wearing blue-gray cloth and holding long weapons in their hands. Their bodies seemed to be swaying as they galloped towards them on horseback, but the roars from their mouths were deafening. In a trance, he inexplicably thought of the lion's roar mentioned in the Buddhist scriptures.

No matter who comes, we can't let them get close to Yuwen Ye!
Xiao Yuansui immediately ordered: "Stop them!"

At his command, the outermost group of soldiers immediately stepped forward, stabbing at the group of people with their spears like poisonous snakes. Shan Tong'er was also a veteran, and he skillfully bent over and turned sideways to dodge the attacks, while riding his horse and wielding a bronze hammer to clear the way ahead.

Soon, he killed his way through the first layer of people who came to stop him.

But the people behind him were not so smooth. From the shaky figures of these people riding their horses, Xiao Yuansui could tell that they were not used to horse fighting, and could even say that they were not very good at riding horses. Sure enough, when his soldiers attacked them, several of them fell backwards from their horses in order to dodge the stabbing weapons. A burst of laughter suddenly rang out in the crowd.

But the next moment, they could no longer laugh - as soon as these people fell to the ground, they became agile. They dodged and rushed directly into the battle formation, waving the long weapons in their hands with great vigor, and knocked down several soldiers with just a wave of their hands!

Everyone immediately sensed something was wrong and rushed forward on their horses, grabbing the spears in their hands and stabbing at one of them.

The man rolled on the ground calmly to avoid the spear, then jumped up with a somersault, ran a few steps and rose more than a person's height. He hit the soldier's shoulder with the weapon in his hand. There was a dull thud, and the soldier screamed and flew off the horse.

Then, the man turned around and rushed towards the crowd on the other side. The soldiers were shocked by his skills and subconsciously rode their horses to avoid him. But at this moment, another figure behind him appeared. He seemed not to be tall either, holding a pair of short weapons in his hands. He swung them left and right like wind wheels, bent over and rushed directly into the crowd - or rather, rushed into the herd of horses.

The war horses had no time to dodge and their four hooves were hit, causing severe pain. Some of them fell directly to the ground, while others stood up with a loud cry of pain, throwing the soldiers off their horses.

For a moment, the soldiers who rushed forward to stop them were disrupted and gradually retreated!

There was a look of panic in Xiao Yuansui's eyes.

Although he brought a large group of soldiers to chase Yuwen Ye tonight, because the target was only that one person, these soldiers did not form a battle array. After Yuwen Ye stopped, these soldiers formed a long line and surrounded him. The most feared thing in this situation was being attacked from the outside. Now that they were attacked by Shan Tong and his group of people, they immediately lost their composure, especially some of them were old members of Wanggang Village. When they saw Shan Tong, who was leading the team and was extremely brave, they instinctively gave way.

And the others are no match at all.

During the fight, Xiao Yuansui also discovered that the long weapons in those people's hands were not swords, spears, or halberds, but were all thick wooden sticks of different lengths. Although they had no sharp blades, they were wielded vigorously in their hands. Even though many soldiers were wearing armor, they might not be hurt by swords and spears, but the thick wooden sticks hit them hard, either breaking their tendons or bones. Those soldiers who stepped forward to resist were knocked over one after another, and a large number of them fell down.

What surprised and shocked him even more was that when these people rushed deeper and closer to them, the shining flames finally illuminated them. Xiao Yuansui then saw clearly that these thirteen people who were agile but not good at horse fighting were actually a group of monks!
It wasn't the reinforcements from Hulao Pass, but the monks! ?
Xiao Yuansui was stunned for a moment.

And these monks were still following Shan Tong'er to charge inside. Although they all dismounted, Xiao Yuansui's subordinates were arranged in a long snake shape, neither too far nor too close. They could not ride their horses at full speed at such a distance and completely lost the advantage of cavalry charging. Even if they wanted to stop them, they would not be able to react in time. Moreover, these people were highly skilled in martial arts and were obviously monks who were accustomed to practicing martial arts. They were extremely brave and for a while they beat them without any chance of fighting back.

The originally tight encirclement was torn open!
