Chapter 1024 Youyun Village (1)
All of this came too quickly, from Sun Bi being almost killed by the stolen head to being hit by Li Moyun and flying out of the air. After falling to the ground, he only breathed a few short breaths.
The loud horse thieves were unable to even come back to their senses from the ups and downs of the great changes, and their hearts suddenly fell, and their eyes were filled with panic.
Whether it is the official army or the Green Forest bandits, for ordinary lower-level soldiers, the existence of the leader has always been the root cause of whether they have the courage to fight. If the generals and leaders can rush forward and kill all directions, they can greatly encourage the aura of the people and allow them to bravely move forward and fight to the end even when facing many enemies.
But once the leader retreats or simply loses and dies, no matter how many people they have, no matter how favorable the situation is, it will collapse in an instant. Even a well-trained official army cannot avoid such a situation, let alone these roaring horses gathered in groups.
So when they saw their leader suddenly flew out and fell down, they were stunned at first, and then they turned around and wanted to run away in a scream.
Originally, the guards could not resist it, but now when they saw this opportunity, they all suddenly became energetic. When they were excited, they waved their weapons and rushed forward. As one went up and down, the guards immediately killed the sound of horses and screamed and retreated. Finally, after being killed twenty or thirty people, they had no intention of resisting. They each twitched their horses and swung their whips, and fled towards the night behind them.
The defeat was like a mountain of defeat. Faced with the fierce pursuit of the guards, and even if the leader was defeated or even died, no matter how many of them were, they could only escape.
The guards wanted to chase after him, but there were few people, and most of the horses were removed from the saddle and stirrup, which made them unable to get on the horse for a while. They wanted to chase the fast-escaped cavalry with only two legs, which was obviously a bit embarrassing. In the end, they could only watch the enemy fleeing in a panic, but they couldn't catch up with it.
Sun Bi also calmed down at this time. After looking at Li Moyun who had retreated to Li Ling, he said, "Don't chase the enemy, take down all the thieves here first, especially the thief leader. I want to see who he is..."
When fighting with the opponent, Sun Bi faintly noticed something strange. The immediate kung fu used by the sound horse thief is not like the Green Forest of the Jianghu, but more of the practical skills in the army. Moreover, this guy stared at him and beat him hard as soon as he arrived, which was a bit strange, as if he knew his identity and wanted to eliminate it as soon as possible. Therefore, it is very necessary to understand the other party's identity first.
Especially after thinking about their behavior of covering their horses, their doubts became even heavier. Sun Bi stared at the upside down guy in the grass in front of him, his eyes narrowed into a thread.
The guards quickly agreed and wanted to go forward and drag the person over. But just as they stepped forward, waves of killing sounds suddenly sounded from the darkness ahead. Hundreds of people continued to kill themselves, and soon they collided with the sound horses who fled in panic.
This made everyone jump again. I thought there were more enemies coming, so I quickly retreated and protected Sun Bi and Li Ling, who had gotten out of the car, retreated in the valley. No one paid attention to whether the horses were dead or alive.
But then, everyone realized that the hundreds of people later were not Xiangma accomplices, because the two sides had quickly fought each other, and the Xiangma, who had long lost their fighting spirit, had little power to resist after encountering this raid, and almost collapsed at the touch. Then they screamed and ran around, and some were running backwards.
The newcomers chased them endlessly and soon chased them to the valley and killed them one by one in front of everyone. The ground was suddenly filled with corpses, and in a row, and with the darkness, they were mixed with the people before, making it impossible to tell.
"Kill!" A man who could see his extremely burly figure even on a horse was roaring and slashed two horses into four pieces, and then continued to urge the horse to rush forward, and the blockers were invincible.
When this scene fell into Li Ling's eyes, he couldn't tell anything, but Sun Bi's eyes lit up: "Are you really a rare general... who are they?" He obviously felt extremely curious in his heart.
However, because of their fierceness, the guards dared not relax. They had formed a formation to block the valley, and many people had already taken out military crossbows and pointed them in front of them. Once the opponent really wanted to take advantage of the situation to kill, they would start to shoot arrows first.
However, this concern was unnecessary. The other party rushed to kill most of the horses. After the escape, they stopped the attack. Only a few people slowly came to the valley. One of them clasped their fists and said in a loud voice: "Are the friends in the valley attacked by a tiny little boy? I brought my brothers to a step later, which scared you all. Don't panic. We are people from Youyun Village built specifically to deal with the trouble of horses in Youzhou. We are not hostile to you."
Youyunzhuang...
After hearing the other party's own reports of his origin, everyone was slightly stunned, and then the alert attitude became much more relaxed.
Although everyone here is an official and does not involve the affairs of the world, since he has been in Youzhou for a while, he is naturally very familiar with the name of Youyun Village.
This is indeed a heroic and righteous force in Youzhou and is highly supported by the people. In fact, Youyun Village has helped the government quite a lot. Because the establishment of Youyun Village was entirely to assist the Northern Xinjiang government troops in dealing with the invading Guirong people.
When the Guirong people invaded and the official army could only guard some important cities, while the small villages and temples were unprotected, these heroes from the martial arts world stood up, united, gathered into an army, fought head-on with the Guirong people, and protected the people of Youzhou with their blood and life.
The one among them is Xin Ruhai, known as the Iron Brave Sword Man. This person not only has extremely high martial arts skills, but also has the ability to command and fight. Under his leadership, although these heroes in the martial arts world are not many, they are enough to bring great obstacles to the Guirong people who invaded the northern border, making them pay the price for every looting.
What is even more admirable is that after these heroes in the martial arts world have not been rewarded by the court, nor do they want the people to thank them. They only do good deeds for the sake of the people. In this way, the Youyun Village they built has become Youzhou, and even the entire northern border is admired and yearned for by countless people in the martial arts world, and Xin Ruhai has also become the real hero in everyone's eyes.
When Gui Rong was completely wiped out, there was no war in the northern border. Everyone thought that Youyunzhuang might be disbanded, but unexpectedly, because of the rampant relationship between Xiangma bandits, they actually appeared to eliminate harm to the people. And so coincidentally, they appeared in front of Li Ling and the others at this time.
While talking, the man not only got off his horse, but also strode forward so that the torches in front of the camp could see his appearance. Although there was blood on his face, it did give people a feeling of pride and enthusiasm. He was still clasping his fists: "Are you guys going south? Are you injured brothers when you are attacked by those little kids?"
The eager care made everyone feel more at ease, and Li Ling walked up to respond: "We have indeed suffered attacks from these horses that claim to be the Four Seas Alliance, and many brothers were injured. Thank you for your help. I don't know that you respect your surname and name. You should repay your kindness for your kindness."
"Haha, killing the thief was originally my long-cherished wish of Youyunzhuang, and it was not for anything to repay me. I, Xin Ruhai, don't know what the Lord is?"
When Li Ling heard him report his identity, he felt even more certain. Xin Ruhai's name was well-known to him. He even had the idea of taking him and the entire Youyun Village into his command to fight the enemy together. Now he smiled enthusiastically: "It turns out to be the hero Xin, I have really admired him for a long time." As he spoke, he looked at his appearance carefully and found that although his beard was gray, he was energetic, with a national face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked like a righteous man. The other people who also dismounted were all full of spirits. He was not a gangster at first glance, so he felt at ease for the time being.
However, he did not tell his true identity, and just smiled and said, "I am here to go to Youzhou to do some small business, but I didn't expect to encounter danger here."
Sun Bi immediately followed and said tacitly: "Sun Ling, I am good friends and brother Li, and I am a business partner. Thank you for your help."
"So that's it. You two are the few good men who are looking very handsome and can lead the crowd to knock down the horses." Xin Ruhai smiled and praised them, then greeted them again, and then he suggested: "Among you all injured, there are the best medicines in my village. Moreover, my Youyun Village is not too far away. If you don't dislike it, why don't you go back to the village to rest? How about it?"
Faced with such a direct invitation, Li Ling was a little hesitant. After all, Sun Bi's identity was here, and they were in a hurry to return to Beijing. Even if they couldn't delay in Youyun Village for too long, there would be a little more risks in the end.
Although Xin Ruhai, Youyun Village, is famous and has just helped them, but he is always on guard against others.
But before Li Ling could think of what to say politely decline, Sun Bi, who was beside him, spoke first: "Since that's the case, I'll disturb Guizhuang." He actually responded, which made Li Ling feel very surprised and couldn't help but take a look.
Sun Bi only smiled at him and did not explain much. In fact, the reason why he made this decision was that he wanted to take Xin Ruhai and others for his own use. After seeing Li Moyun's skills, Sun Bi suddenly realized that he was really short of such masters around him. Even if he would become the emperor next, the palace also needed real trustworthy masters to protect. These heroes from the martial arts world who had no intersection with the officialdom were obviously very suitable people.
