Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 489
Chapter 489 The Peerless Song of the Lonely Wolf
From the moment Dongzan Yusong returned to Luozhi City, this desolate dynasty built on the ice and snow plateau, and the brave people who lived half of their lives, were completely shocked and trembling.
This kind of shock and panic was even more severe than any previous blizzard in the past.
Dongzan Yusong was unconscious and angry. When the guards on the left and right informed Zan Pu of the battle details and Dongzan Yusong’s encounter, the entire arena was deathly silent.
Gaer Qinling was also present, and many people were staring at him.
As a result, the expression on his face was like stone carvings, expressionless. It was as if the unconscious old man in front of him had nothing to do with him.
After a while, Gaer Qinling spat out a sentence, “Hou Junji, we’re heading to Luo City.”
“We all underestimated him!” Qizong Nongzan gritted his teeth and cursed reluctantly.
‘It’s you, not me.’ Gaer Qinling really wanted to say this, but his words were replaced by, “Zan Pu, please prepare your troops for battle.”
“Qinling!”
“I’m here!”
‘”Please …” Qizong Nongzan’s expression was not too good-looking. He was a little embarrassed, but also a little regretful. He forced a bitter smile and said, “Please regain control of the army and lead the two hundred thousand troops of the imperial city to face Hou Junji!”
“Yes.” Gaer Qinling bent down and stroked his chest, accepting the horned talisman from Qizong Nongzan.
Then, without saying anything else, Gaer Qinling strode away.
Qizong Nongzan rejected the medical officials, ministers, attendants, and the others. He sat by the couch and stared at the unconscious Dongzan Yusong, whose face was as pale as paper. He let out a long sigh and said to himself with his fist, “Qinling, you win!” You don’t want to say anything more. You must think that the facts have proved you right and you don’t want to say anything more. I’ve always thought that I was right, but the truth is … Qin Mubai, you’re too vicious! We, the shepherds that you call the Wildlands Hu Ye, only raise muslin hounds that look after the house, yet you raise a magical beast like Hou Jun Ji! Moreover, you kept this magical beast on the fence outside the house. Not only did you not use an iron cage, you even deliberately left the rope untied! ”
“Is this war a state-to-state confrontation between Tibet and the Great Tang, or a private contest between Gaer Qinling and Qin Mubai?”
“Even I, Zan Pu, am helpless! History has to be written by two generals! … Could it be that all of this is fate’s arrangement?”
Palmoli Prairie, one of the most fertile pastures east of Luozhi City, was usually filled with herds of cattle and sheep singing melodiously.
The scenery here was picturesque, and he sat and watched the distant sky, the milky white clouds floating lazily. In the clear valley, there were pebbles reflecting dazzling warm sunlight. Looking at the majestic imperial city of Tibet, it was very close.
The scouts reported that the army was gathering in front of Tibet’s imperial city and was heading towards this place.
Hou Junji, on the other hand, ordered everyone to dismount from their horses and take a bath in this clear valley.
“Bring it or not, bring it or not–fame, wealth, grudges, grudges, blood and dirt.”
More than 20,000 Tang soldiers took off their armor and quietly descended into the river, quietly scrubbing their bodies with the cold river water.
The river began to turn red and black, and finally turned into a pink purple.
Hou Junji did not go down the river. He sat on his horse and quietly looked at the Tang army soldiers.
“You are all true heroes, and you should be famous heroes in history. However, this is not the right time to meet such a bastard like Hou.” Hou Junji muttered to himself and sighed softly, “I owe you this debt. If there really is an afterlife … I will definitely pay you back one by one even after ten thousand generations!”
A faint whimper came from the valley. Some people hug each other, clench their fists, clasp their heads and cry. There were still some people lying motionlessly in the river as if enjoying the last moment of tranquility in their lives.
It turned out that death was not scary. What was scary was that even though he knew the time of his death, he was still waiting here to die.
It turned out that these soldiers were all flesh and blood after all, possessing the seven emotions and six desires of a human and the instinct to survive.
“Order-Prepare for battle!!!” Hou Junji roared like thunder. His voice was almost hoarse.
With a command, whether it was crying or dazed, all the soldiers bounced out of the valley as if they had been electrocuted and gathered together at the fastest speed possible.
Seven emotions, six desires, and all instincts instantly surrendered to the command.
The scouts came to report that a group of cavalry had come from Luo City, numbering around twenty thousand.
“Twenty thousand?” Hou Junji frowned and questioned.
“Yes, according to my estimation, this is indeed the number.” The scout replied with certainty.
Hou Junji nodded silently. He had no reason to doubt the veteran scout’s vision. Along the way, he had never missed the military intelligence report, and his vision of the size of the enemy camp or the number of troops was incomparably accurate.
Hearing the number of “20,000”, Hou Junji’s expression was even more grim than when he first heard of Dongzan Yusong’s 100,000 troops.
“Gaer Qinling is here.” Hou Junji spat out these words. At the same time, I have a thought in my heart-this is the last battle of my life! With him as his opponent, he was also happy! !
Actually, all the soldiers already had this expectation in their hearts. First, Hou Junji defeated Dong Zanyu Song and castrated him back to Luo. How could Gaer Qinling, as a human subject and a human son, endure such a humiliation? Moreover, the current plateau was already filled with fear, and everyone trembled when they heard the name of the Marquis Market-apart from Gaer Qinling, who else would dare to bring only twenty thousand troops to defeat the sharpness of the Marquis Market?
“This subordinate can only clearly see that it is the Kunlun Cavalry with the Iron-armored Black-robed Eagle Claw Flag! As for the commander, he is unable to detect it. This subordinate estimates that the enemy is less than 20 miles away from our camp.” The scout replied with great professionalism.
“Sharp Arrow Formation, prepare for battle!” Hou Junji ordered decisively.
The Three Blades Arrow Formation, the strongest attack formation used by the Great Tang cavalry to destroy the city and uproot the stronghold-Hou Junji’s intentions were quite clear. The time had come for a decisive battle, and there was absolutely no possibility of using another formation!
The entire Tang army moved. More than twenty thousand people were as agile as a person’s hands and feet, and they instantly set up their formation.
The ground was shaken by the iron hooves, and the flowing water in the valley began to jump and surge.
A strong wind suddenly rose, and a sharp howl rang out. The white clouds that were originally climbing in midair turned into thin threads and ran in a panic.
In front of him, a dark mass of cavalry rushed over, killing intent soaring into the sky.
It was indeed Guanxi Army’s strong opponent, and also the most familiar old opponent-the Kunlun Cavalry!
Hou Junji narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked ahead. He saw that the formation was filled with a spicy killing intent from the old daoist army, and he didn’t lose his fierce and domineering aura even though he was well aware of it. It was like a martial artist with an extremely high cultivation, who appeared to be simple when facing an enemy, but it contained endless changes and killing moves.
“Gaer Qinling!” Hou Junji was already certain.
On the other side, Gaer Qinling pulled back his horse and stopped. He held the two-zhang python slimming in his hand and stared at the Tang army in front of him like an eagle, shrouded in reflected sunlight.
“Kill!!” When the military order was issued, the Kunlun cavalry roared out.
Hou Junji unsheathed his saber-“Kill!!”
The Kansai cavalry swung forward!
The picturesque Palmoli Prairie instantly turned into a hell of a nose, and the sound of killing shook the heavens as blood flowed into the river!
…
Ever since he was in charge of Golmud, Gaer Qinling had rarely taken the lead in personally carrying guns to kill enemies. The Wild Python slimming that symbolized Tibet’s strongest martial power rarely appeared.
But today, he was the first to jump out with a spear. In a flash, he pierced into the Tang cavalry like a blade!
In a single move, three Tang cavalry were killed in the blink of an eye!
Every single Tang soldier present was a Spirit Desolate Cavalry that was chosen from a hundred battles for the rest of their lives!
As a result, the nearby Tang army soldiers were shocked-they didn’t expect such a valiant general to exist on the plateau!
“Hou Junji, get out! Gaer Qinling, kiss your head!!”
Extremely arrogant and presumptuous, he still spoke in Chinese.
All of the Tang army soldiers were enraged and rushed towards Gaer Qinling desperately. Even if someone brandished a saber behind him, Tang Jun only wanted to stab Gaer Qinling’s body with the saber and spear, or carry him and roll off the horse, and then let the other brothers stab him with their guns.
But it was useless.
Almost no one was able to get within ten feet of Gaer Qinling, and even cold arrows were dodged by him one by one. As a result, the corpses of Tang army soldiers piled up around Gaer Qinling, but he was completely unharmed!
“God bless Marshal!! Marshal is invincible!!!”
With the commander’s life, the Kunlun cavalry’s morale was greatly boosted!
Hou Junji, like many Tang army soldiers, was enjoying the pain of high altitude sickness while using the last bit of his life force to fight to the death!
In the eyes of Hou Junji and the soldiers of the Tang army, the battle before them no longer mattered whether they won or lost, whether they lived or died.
Since he had taken that step, there was no possibility of turning back. Since he had already arrived here, it was already a miracle of life, a miracle in the history of war.
Because it was enough, there was no grudge. Because it was worth it, there was no regret …
Two hours later, Hou Junji, who was bathed in blood, was suddenly sliced into his back by a scimitar. The once solid Bright Light Armor finally split into two, and blood sprayed out like crazy!
“Scram! He’s mine!!” Suddenly, a roar of thunder rang out, and all the Kunlun cavalry that surrounded Hou Junji dispersed like a tide.
A fierce horse that was as tall as charcoal roared into the sky, carrying a knight over a circle of knights and landing in front of Hou Junji like a devil god.
“Hehe!” Hou Junji panted heavily as he wiped the sweat off his face. He stared at the man in front of him and smiled, “Grandson, you finally came to see your grandfather!”
“Hou Junji, you defeated general!” Gaer Qinling stared at Hou Junji with his eyebrows raised like a knife. He slowly raised his Berserk Python Spear and gritted his teeth. “If I give you another hundred thousand troops, you are no match for me!”-Kneel down and kowtow! Even if there is a great grudge between us, I will protect you from death and make you a general! ”
“Hehe! In this world, only Tibet has a grandfather kowtowing to his grandson.” Hou Junji sneered nonchalantly, but his forehead was covered in cold sweat. Blood was still flowing from his back, and he had already soaked the saddle.
“You Han people only have strong tongues. If you really make a move, you will lose ten thousand times!” Gaer Qinling shouted, “Don’t say that I bullied you. I only brought twenty thousand cavalry out of twenty thousand of you. You’ve traveled a long distance and gone through a hundred battles. We’ve run no closer than you, and we’ve fought no fewer battles than you!”
“Shut your beak!” Hou Junji spat and coldly snorted, “Don’t be so arrogant in front of your grandfather.” When Grandpa was fighting, you were still playing with mud! –Gaer Qinling, listen carefully. Even if you can defeat Hou Junji a thousand times, ten thousand times, and then shatter my corpse into ten thousand pieces, you will never admit defeat at the Hou Junji Gathering! Besides, your Grandpa Marquis has long since come here to kill me. Kill till now, tired, tired, want to rest–what are you shouting about? Your Marquis Grandpa is also playing with you when you’re about to die. Grandpa is tired of living, that’s why I borrowed your grandson’s saber and sent many of your grandfathers on their way! So that we don ‘t have to continue tossing and turning on this plateau where chickens don’ t lay eggs and birds don ‘t shit and can’ t even breathe! ”
After hearing what he said, not only did Gaer Qinling not get angry, he fell into silence for a moment.
The atmosphere on this side of the battlefield instantly became strange. Not far away, killing sounds shook the heavens, corpses and blood dancing wildly, but this side was strangely quiet.
“What did you think? Haha!” Hou Junji suddenly laughed out loud, “Battle, it must be you who won, because I didn’t want to win anymore.” But this daddy is the real winner! Great Tang, the fate of Tibet and Tibet has changed because of your Marquis Grandpa. Do you have the ability to do so? Haha! Thanks to your reputation as a hero of the plateau and an official of Tibet, you are nothing more than an ordinary man! What a fool! He only knows how to kill and kill arrogant humans! “Come on, hurry up and cut off your grandpa Marquis, and give me a perfect ending in this life!”
Unexpectedly, Gaer Qinling’s anger suddenly disappeared. Instead, he put the gun down and shouted, “Take it down and tie it up!”
“Haha!–Hahaha!!” Hou Junji laughed loudly, “Gaer Qinling, look at how cowardly you are! You don’t even have the courage to kill me! Have you forgotten how many Tibetans I killed? I even flattened the Gal Family’s Sun Bo territory, not only did I not leave behind chickens and dogs, I even castrated your father!”
Gaer Qinling clenched his teeth and glared coldly at Hou Junji, shouting, “Order-except for Hou Junji, kill all of them, leave no one behind!”
Hou Junji looked around. As he had expected, Guanxi Army, who was like a broken candle in the wind, was powerless to return to the sky and was completely at a disadvantage.
This battle was certain to be defeated, and it was completely annihilated.
Hou Junji sheathed his saber, closed his eyes and said to himself, “Brothers, you guys go first. There’s no harm in walking slowly on the road. After I humiliate them again, I will immediately chase after you!”
A few Kunlun cavalry stepped forward and pulled Hou Junji off his horse, binding him tightly
