The Song Dynasty on the Sand Table

Chapter 412 Don’t come over
Jin Wuzhu spurred his horse forward, Li Cheng followed him, and a large herd of chariot horses neighed and whinnied as they came along.

He doesn't have any Ironclad Cavalry with him now because they are very cumbersome and mainly used for "attacking fortified positions" on the battlefield. They are obviously not suitable for pursuing enemy troops, so he left all the Ironclad Cavalry at Mutuogang and only took the Guaizi horse with him.

Moreover, he didn't have many cavalrymen around him.

This time, when he was sent to reinforce the puppet Qi, he only brought 5,000 men. During the decisive battle at Mutuogang, all 5,000 men were still with him. However, after the victory, Li Heng and his generals scattered and fled, and Jin Wuzhu's subordinates also scattered to pursue them. He only had 500 cavalrymen with him to pursue Peng Qi to the south. Of course, he also had more than 5,000 useless puppet Qi soldiers led by Li Cheng with him.

The pseudo-Qi soldiers were all infantrymen who swung their legs and couldn't run fast.

Jin Wuzhu's five hundred elite cavalry were incredibly fast; they charged forward with a whoosh and soon arrived at the battlefield ahead.

Even from a great distance, Jin Wuzhu witnessed an extraordinary scene on the battlefield.

A majestic man was seen leading twenty-eight cavalrymen, charging and weaving through the ranks of the puppet Qi army. Peng Qi's several hundred men followed behind these twenty-eight riders, desperately picking off any stragglers.

The imposing man was indeed not wielding a halberd, but rather a long spear with an ancient design. However, his way of using the spear was very strange; while others used spears primarily for thrusting, his spear was mainly used for sweeping attacks…

The gun spun, leaving behind a crescent-shaped trail of black light.

Within the range of this black light, the pseudo-Qi soldiers were like fallen leaves swept up by the wind, swirling and flying about.

The fact that a gun can send a person weighing over 100 pounds flying indicates that the gun is extremely heavy.

Jin Wuzhu was startled: "That spear isn't made of pure iron, is it? How heavy must it be?"

While he was still in shock, his five hundred elite cavalrymen charged forward with strange neighs.

Among the cavalry was a centurion named Lou Fan, a skilled archer.

Even from a great distance, his eyes were already locked on Xiang Yu, and he chuckled to himself: No matter how skilled you are with a spear, I can take you down with one arrow from dozens of steps away. Let's see what makes you so arrogant.

At this moment, five hundred cavalrymen had already charged onto the battlefield, flanking the two armies. These cavalrymen weren't a direct charge unit; their fighting style was primarily one of containment. Each of them drew their bows and arrows, firing wildly at Xiang Yu and Peng Qi's men…

Their bows are very powerful, and they like to fire at very close range, making their arrows extremely powerful, which can be described as "shock shots." Being hit by an arrow not only causes injury, but also paralyzes the person.

Peng Qi's men were immediately shot and screamed in agony, their morale plummeting.

In the chaos, Lou Fan had already aimed at Xiang Yu. With a chuckle, he released his right hand, and the arrow flew towards Xiang Yu.

Just then, Xiang Yu had swept away two pseudo-Qi soldiers with a single spear thrust and was about to turn around when he suddenly heard a whooshing sound. There was no time to dodge, and with a "clang," an arrow struck him accurately in the chest.

However, there is no use for eggs.

Xiang Yu was clad in heavy armor, and when the arrow struck the armor, it only made a "ding" sound before bouncing far away.

Lou Fan: "Holy crap, just how thick is this guy's armor?"

He saw that Xiang Yu moved very nimbly and thought that his armor was not thick. Little did he know that the armor was so thick that the arrows could only make a sound.

Jin Wuzhu, watching from afar, was also stunned: "How can this man, wielding an incredibly heavy iron spear and wearing incredibly heavy iron armor, move so nimbly and with such wide, sweeping movements? Doesn't he get tired?"

Not tired, let's move on!

With a swing of his spear, Xiang Yu sent several more of the pseudo-Qi soldiers flying.

In the chaos, he suddenly spun around and faced Lou Fan directly.

At that moment, Lou Fan fired another arrow, which flew straight at Xiang Yu's face.

Xiang Yu transferred the Overlord Spear to his left hand, freeing his right hand, and caught it with his bare hands... With a soft "snap," Lou Fan's "Shock Shot" was actually caught by Xiang Yu with his bare hands.

The arrow carried such immense force that if an ordinary person tried to grab it with their bare hands, their palms would be raw and their tail feathers would cut them. But the moment Xiang Yu's hand touched the shaft of the arrow, the arrow's forward momentum seemed to vanish instantly, becoming incredibly docile.

Xiang Yu pointed at Lou Fan from afar: "The archer from the Loufan tribe, huh? You brat, you dare to provoke me again! Don't run, I'll kill you!"

Lou Fan: "?"

How did he know my name was Lou Fan? No, that's not the point.

He suddenly realized that Xiang Yu was charging towards him.

Surrounded by the clamor of thousands of troops on the battlefield, Xiang Yu's gaze seemed unaffected by anything, fixed on Lou Fan.

Lou Fan suddenly felt as if he had been targeted by a large predator!
It's like when you're hunting in the northern mountains and forests, a chill runs down your spine, and you feel like something is watching you from the jungle. Then, you suddenly turn around and see a Siberian tiger leap out and give you a big thud with its thick paws.

This feeling is terrible.

Lou Dan squeezed the horse's flanks with her legs and galloped wildly, shouting, "Don't come any closer!"

With a flick of his spear, Xiang Yu swept aside the pseudo-Qi soldiers in front of him and charged straight at Lou Dan.

The pseudo-Qi soldiers fired arrows in quick succession, some hitting Xiang Yu and others hitting his horse, Wuzhui, but Xiang Yu and his men were all wearing heavy iron armor, and all the arrows bounced off.

The dangling horses were terrified and scattered, whimpering and running away.

Xiang Yu ignored the scattered people and focused solely on chasing Lou Fan.

Lou Fan: "Aaaaaah! Why?"

He was, after all, a strategist, and had his own loyal subordinates. A group of his men immediately rushed to his aid, but Xiang Yu swung his spear, and the closest men were sent flying in circles to either side.

The other horses were startled and dared not approach for a while, so they continued to shoot arrows at close range.

But the arrows had no effect on Xiang Yu's heavy armor...

In a short while, Xiang Yu caught up with Lou Fan from behind. He swept his Overlord Spear forward, and Lou Fan screamed and flew sideways. He landed heavily with blood flowing from his seven orifices. It seemed that the spear had severely injured his internal organs, and even a god could not save him.

When Jin Wuzhu saw this scene, he felt terrible.

This monster before us is no weaker than that cricket monster.

It even felt more intense.

Crickets fight with some skill, but this monster relies entirely on brute force.

terrible!

Just as Jin Wuzhu was thinking this, he saw Xiang Yu turn his head and lock his gaze on him.

Lou Fan had just experienced this feeling, and now Jin Wuzhu was experiencing it too—a large, ferocious beast had locked onto him.

Jin Wuzhu made his decision in just 0.32 seconds: he turned around, spurred his horse, and ran!

"Don't come over."
