The Savage Lady Wants to Kill Me! Reborn on the Path of Cultivation

Under the command of Shen Gu, 50,000 Jin troops came out in full force, vowing to annihilate the Hongxing Army hiding in the dense forest in one fell swoop.

At first, the Hongxing Army took advantage of the terrain and used arrows to attack from a distance, making it difficult for the enemy to get close.

As the Jin army pressed forward step by step, the Hongxing army quickly changed its tactics, firing crossbows and arrows like locusts, dealing a more severe blow to the enemy.

But even so, the two thousand soldiers were outnumbered against an army of fifty thousand, and the defense line gradually showed signs of fatigue.

Seeing that the enemy was as fierce as wolves and tigers, Duan Tianyang decisively ordered the entire army to retreat deep into the dense forest.

The Jin army had been chasing for many days and was filled with anger, so how could they give up easily?

Shen Gu led an army of 50,000 and held on tightly, with the momentum to annihilate the Hongxing Army in one fell swoop.

The two sides chased each other in the woods, which was a thrilling race. After running for more than an hour, Hong Xingjun finally rushed out of the woods first. The view in front of them suddenly opened up and a boundless grassland came into view. At the end of the grassland was the endless Taishan Mountain shrouded in clouds and mist.

Duan Tianyang took a deep breath and raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, hold on a little longer, Taishan is just ahead, and our mission will be completed soon!"

Before he finished speaking, a rapid sound of horse hooves rang out from the forest. The Jin cavalry rushed out of the woods and onto the flat grassland. There were no more obstacles. They galloped freely at a speed as fast as a golden storm, and instantly approached the Hongxing Army.

The knights' spears were like a forest, flashing cold light. In a flash, the two lagging Hongxing Army soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and their screams echoed over the grassland.

At this moment, a brave warrior of the Hongxing Army holding a long sword stepped forward. He roared, and faced the galloping cavalry. Instead of being afraid, he rolled on the ground and cleverly avoided the fatal blow of the spear.

Then he lay on the ground and swung his sword. With a "click" sound, the warhorse's front hooves broke. The cavalryman was caught off guard, fell off the horse, and fainted on the spot.

The warrior suddenly stood up from the ground, and the long sword in his hand turned into silver lightning, and he swung out continuously.

"Dang, dang!"

With two crisp sounds of metal clashing, he deftly deflected two spears that were thrust at him, and two war horses passed by him like ghosts.

The warrior took advantage of the situation and turned around, slashing with his sword. With the enemy cavalry's screams, another cavalryman fell from his horse.

However, more cavalrymen came rushing in like a tide. Facing the galloping horses, he knew that he could not confront them head-on. He turned his body to the side and rolled to narrowly avoid the impact.

Just as he was about to get up, another warhorse came roaring towards him. Between life and death, the warrior showed amazing calmness and courage.

He sat on the ground, leaning back, holding the long sword tightly in both hands. The handle of the sword was deeply embedded in the soil, and the blade was raised like an angry dragon. One man and one sword formed a line of defense.

In an instant, with a "plop" sound, the galloping warhorse collided head-on with the long sword. The sharp tip of the blade pierced through the horse's body, came out from the back of its neck, and pierced through the cavalry on the horse. In an instant, both the horse and the rider died and fell to the ground with a bang.

Although the warrior was brave, he also lost his weapon. Facing the cavalry that was coming one after another, he sat there with nowhere to hide, looking ready to die.

At this moment of despair, a black shadow rushed up from behind him like a ghost, and was beside him in an instant. It grabbed the back of his collar and lifted him into the air.

Then, the man waved his arm and shouted in a deep voice: "Go!" Along with this shout, the warrior's body was thrown several feet away by an irresistible force and escaped from danger.

At the same time, the warhorse that was about to trample the warrior was already in front of him. The man was seen half-crouching on the ground, and a huge shield miraculously appeared on his left arm, like a guardian god descending.

The warhorse's hooves stomped heavily on the shield, making a deafening roar. The man gritted his teeth and endured it, stood up suddenly, used the momentum to push the warhorse upright, and then fell heavily.

The cavalryman on horseback fell first, and then the huge body of the warhorse fell down with a loud bang, crushing him underneath.

At this critical moment, it was Duan Tianyang who saved the warriors from danger.

He stood up quickly, swung the black knife in his hand, and instantly released a storm of sharp blades. The wind blades poured down like a rainstorm, and more than a dozen riders fell off their horses one after another. The wailing and neighing of horses intertwined together.

Before Duan Tianyang could make another move, Lu Jingyuan, Hua Duoer and other members of the Hidden Martial Hall quickly stepped forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with him to jointly resist the fierce attack of the Jin army's cavalry.

The Fourteenth Army Corps of the Jin Dynasty was mainly composed of infantry, with few cavalry. The cavalry that followed Shen Gu on this expedition numbered only a few hundred.

Under the heroic counterattack of Duan Tianyang and others, the Jin cavalry suffered heavy losses, and nearly a hundred cavalry were killed on the grassland.

Seeing that the opponent's strength was unfathomable, the remaining cavalry dared not act rashly anymore and turned their horses around and retreated in a panic.

Witnessing the enemy cavalry's retreat, Duan Tianyang and his men did not pursue them, but instead accelerated and rushed towards Taishan.

The Hongxing Army crossed the vast grassland and reached the entrance to Taishan.

The Jin army spies quickly passed the information back to Shen Gu, who was furious. The cooked duck was about to fly away, so how could he let it go?

He urgently ordered the entire army to speed up, vowing to chase back the fleeing enemy. The 50,000 Jin cavalry, without any hesitation, chased into Taishan in a mighty force.

As they entered the mountainous area, the speed of the Hongxing Army slowed down significantly, while the Jin Army's pursuit followed closely, and the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed.

Shen Gu rode his horse to a high place and looked into the distance. He saw that the soldiers of the Hongxing Army seemed to be in a panic while fleeing. From time to time, some of them were tripped by rocks and looked miserable.

This situation made Shen Gu sneer. He spoke word by word, his tone full of ruthlessness: "Let's see where you can escape this time!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a Jin soldier rode up from behind and came in front of Shen Gu. He jumped off his horse and knelt on one knee. He clasped his hands together and said hurriedly, "General Shen, I am a member of the Eighth Legion. I am here to deliver a message on the orders of General Tian."

Shen Gu frowned slightly, his impatience evident in his words: "General Tian, ​​what advice do you have?"

"General Tian said that the enemy is cunning. I hope General Shen will not blindly pursue them, as there may be an ambush!"

Shen Gu's tone became even colder when he heard this: "Is this what your general meant?"

"Exactly!"

"Go back and tell him that what is beyond his ability may not be impossible for me, Shen Gu. This time, I swear to completely wipe out the remaining forces of Zheng Guang!" Shen Gu stood straight, his words revealing unquestionable determination.

"But General Shen and General Tian said that the enemy has deliberately slowed down its pace several times in recent days to lure our army into chasing them. There must be something fishy going on!"

Tian Ye, this person has excellent military talent and acumen, but is a little clumsy in dealing with human relationships.

The envoy's reminder was well-intentioned, but to Shen Gu, it sounded like a thorn in his back.

As both of us are deputy commanders of the legion, our status is equal. Why do I need you to teach me how to act?
