Chapter 2: The Stormy Weather of Yan and Zhao Section 21

  Long arrows, long arrows filling the sky.

  The enemy's attention was all drawn to Li Hong, and no one went to guard their own back. At a distance of eighty steps from the left side of the cavalry, there was a small hill that suddenly appeared with hundreds of riders, each holding bows and arrows, continuously shooting out dense long arrows.

  The defensive soldiers in the middle of the chariot team were dealt a devastating blow, with dozens of soldiers screaming and falling to the ground without any defense. Lie Kuangfeng let out a loud cry, grabbing Ke Bi Xiong with one hand and Quan Kun with the other, and flipped over from the horse's buttocks. Quan Kun saw two long arrows stuck in Lie Kuangfeng's back. He Lianbo was knocked to the ground by his guards, who were then shot dead. For a moment, people shouted and horses whinnied, and the central defense of the chariot team was completely paralyzed.

  Li Hong killed him. The war horse couldn't stop its momentum, and it crashed into a horse facing itself, then rolled over and crashed into four people, two horses, and finally crashed into the carriage before falling to the ground dead.

  Li Hong, at the moment of the war horse's impact, flew up into the air, slashing and killing an enemy who was approaching him. He then raised his left hand, holding a circular shield high to block the long arrows that were shooting down like rain. With his right hand, he continuously hacked and killed with his battle knife, regardless of whether it was a person or a horse, cutting whatever came his way. In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, and all who opposed him were defeated.

  Li Hong chopped off the carriage shaft with one knife, and then used another to lift up the curtain. He opened his mouth to shout loudly, but suddenly his excited face turned into a terrified one. His eyes burst out with an unbelievable despair, and then a terrifying scream came from his throat.

  Inside the carriage sat a robust man with whiskers, a cold and sinister long spear, like a poisonous snake, burst out of the carriage as Li Hong lifted the curtain, stabbing towards Li Hong's chest and abdomen.

  Li Hong dodged but couldn't dodge, his left hand instinctively raised the shield to block. The long spear broke through the round shield and stabbed towards Li Hong without any hindrance. As the shield shattered, Li Hong's left hand loosened, and he grabbed the spear handle with one hand.

  The long spear pierced Li Hong's waist, and fresh blood gushed out. Li Hong let out a tiger's roar, his left hand exerting force, and he forcibly pushed the long spear away from his body while retreating three steps. With his right hand wielding his battle knife, Li Hong wildly slashed at the arrows flying towards him, knocking them all open. The burly man on the chariot, taking advantage of his high position, also let out a loud roar and once again exerted force to thrust the long spear into Li Hong's body.

  Li Hong was enraged. He suddenly let out a loud roar, no longer caring about the arrows flying everywhere, and with his eyes fixed on that smug face, he swung his battle knife with all his might. The knife whizzed through the air and stabbed viciously into the chest of the burly man with the curly whiskers.

  Li Hong felt his left hand relax, the long spear had already left the big Han's hands, but he immediately got hit by two arrows. Li Hong turned around with the long spear, swinging it while pulling out the long arrow and shouting loudly: "Xiao Xue, Xiao Xue..."

  Tuoba Hong's iron cavalry is galloping wildly, getting closer and closer. The soldiers on both sides of the carriage team have woken up from their panic, and are shooting long arrows at a small hill package eighty steps away.

  Li Hong's mind was greatly shocked, and if he couldn't find Feng Xue this time, the surprise attack would probably end in a miserable defeat. He panicked and jumped onto the horse carriage, using all his strength to shout wildly: "Xiao Xue..."

  Suddenly, he seemed to hear the cry of the wind and snow. Li Hong was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately calmed down.

  The thunder-like sound of horseshoes, the whistling sound of long arrows breaking through the air, the soldiers' shouts, the war horses' long neighs, all kinds of sounds intertwined together, making it impossible for Li Hong to distinguish the source of the sounds.

  He wielded his spear to defend against the long arrows while keeping a watchful eye on all sides.

  He saw a black leopard roaming around nearby. Then he saw the Kodiak bear. This brave and meticulous little kid left a deep impression on him. Li Hong suddenly became excited, this child must give him an answer.

  Koala bear crouched on the ground, using its small paws to gesture back and forth on its face, with a look of anxiety, its small mouth opening and closing regularly.

  Li Hong involuntarily shouted: "Knife Scar."

  Kobi Bear nodded vigorously and then pointed with his hand at the black leopard and then at the rear of the convoy.

  Li Hong whistled a few times, and the black leopard, hearing the familiar sound and seeing its familiar master, immediately ran over. Li Hong leaped high from the carriage, merged with his horse, and shot out like an arrow, instantly charging along the convoy in a frenzy. The soldiers standing at the outer edge of the convoy shooting arrows were the first to be hit, suffering a bloody massacre at Li Hong's hands.

  Tuoba Hong roared in anger and ordered the soldiers to follow up. The soldiers near the convoy formed groups of three or five, starting to block Li Hong's charge.

  "Xiao Xue..." Li Hong struck and killed a soldier with great force, shouting loudly.

  Time is extremely tense now. If they still can't find the Wind Snow, Li Hong has no choice but to use his last resort, and everyone will have a fierce battle to the death.

  "Little snow......" Seeing Tuoba Hong's iron cavalry getting closer and closer, Li Hong almost cried out.

  White horse. Li Hong suddenly saw the white horse. He didn't even consider it, and swept his long spear horizontally, forcing back two enemies on the side, then tightly clamped his legs around the horse's abdomen. The black leopard cooperated with him tacitly, accelerating immediately. Li Hong shouted loudly, his long spear standing upright, as the black leopard leaped into the air, soaring high over a cart full of grain.

  Li Hong saw the scar, saw the long arrow pointing at him from the scar. Li Hong's mind went blank, his eyes staring blankly at the murderous-looking scar.

  Li Hong's body fell powerlessly onto the back of the black leopard as it flew through the air.

  The scar on his right hand relaxed, and the long arrow silently left the bow.

  The long arrow whizzed past Li Hong's neck, and the sharp arrow cluster brought up a bead of blood on his neck.

  Li Hong shouted, and as the black leopard landed, he kicked the scar-faced man off the war horse with one foot. One man and one horse rushed towards the wind and snow amidst the shocked cries of the Xianbei soldiers.

  Feng Xue was suddenly invited out of the carriage by He Lian Bo, riding her own white horse closely following Knife Scar Uncle. But when she saw Li Hong rush into the carriage, she cried, thinking that Li Hong would definitely die. Unexpectedly, in a flash, Li Hong stood on the carriage, shouting and calling out loudly. She involuntarily responded with a "yes". She didn't know why she had agreed, was it really because she hoped that Bao Zi Ge Ge would take her away? No way! I'm leaving, what about my two brothers? What about Mu Rong Uncle? What about the relatives in Niu Tou Shan? What about the Niu Tou tribe? Feng Xue felt like she was suffocating, and she was almost out of breath from pain.

  She hastily wrapped the black cloak tightly around her body, carefully hiding behind the knife scar, afraid of being seen by Li Hong. But she forgot about her precious horse.

  She looked at Li Hong in a fluster, unsure of what to do. She wanted to follow Li Hong, but her conscience told her she couldn't leave, couldn't abandon her own family.

  She was swept off her feet by Li Hong, and like a cloud floating in the air, she found herself tightly wrapped in his arms, riding on the back of the black leopard, shooting towards the snowy grassland with lightning speed.

  The snowstorm suddenly lost itself in this moment, she just wanted to be held by Li Hong forever, not thinking about anything, not doing anything, comfortably lying in Li Hong's arms.

  The scar crawled up from the ground, angrily scolding: "Little white fool, why kick so fiercely?" Then he saw Li Hong holding Feng Xue riding a black leopard rushing wildly on the snowy ground, with Feng Xue's white horse closely following behind them.

  The soldiers were chasing after him in a flurry. Tuoba Hong was furious, his heart racing with anger, and he almost spat out blood. This leopard was indeed superior everywhere, coming up with one clever move after another in an extremely short period of time, and actually managed to steal the wind and snow away from him. He was yelling crazily, leading the iron cavalry to leap over the convoy, barking like a mad dog, pursuing relentlessly without letting go. Helian Bobo now regretted his own carelessness. He had not expected Li Hong to be not only brave and fierce, but also extremely cunning. He had long been plotting in advance, making meticulous designs on the road he must take, so that today he was caught off guard, suffering heavy blows one after another in a short period of time.

  Kerulen continuously shouted, urging the soldiers to pursue quickly. Lie Feng was shot in the back by an arrow and gritted his teeth in pain, but since his sister had been taken away, he had to pretend to be brave and follow the team to pursue. He now hated Li Hong to death. What kind of thing is this? No distinction between friend and foe, shooting indiscriminately. I'm dead, what's good for you.

  He connected 50 people to guard the cart team, and all the others moved out to chase Li Hong. He was no longer concerned about the ambush in the forest, even if they robbed the cart team's property he didn't care. Losing gold and silver treasures is not a big deal, but losing He Lian's new bride, her fate is known without asking. It's not that this woman is so important to He Lian, but it's the face of the Xianbei country's great king that can't be lost.

  More than a hundred people who covered Li Hong's assault team saw Li Hong succeed and immediately turned around and ran, running faster than Li Hong. Four or five hundred Xianbei iron cavalry chased after them with their lives on the line. This woman was related to their life and death, and not chasing her would be strange.

  Feng Xue suddenly opened her eyes, and she heard the chaotic shouts of the pursuing soldiers behind her, heard the whizzing sound of long arrows flying by, and was shocked awake. She thought of her own brother. Feng Xue turned her head to look back. The Xianbei soldiers were holding up their weapons, chasing after her with an unprecedented frenzy.

  She immediately smelled the bloody smell on Li Hong's body and felt Li Hong's heavy breathing. Feng Xue painfully closed her eyes.

  "Brother Leopard, thank you for coming to save me. This kindness can only be repaid in the next life." She muttered to herself.

  The wind and snow finally made up their minds, suddenly using both hands to grab Li Hong's two arms, lightly exhaling a breath, and with a lightness that belied their strength, sent Li Hong flying into a somersault. Li Hong was completely unguarded, waving his arms and legs in mid-air, and with the momentum of a galloping horse, heavily crashed onto the snowy ground, rolling over a dozen times before coming to a stop. The two long arrows on his body were snapped in two, and the arrowheads sank deeper into his flesh. Li Hong was dazed and disoriented, unable to tell north from south, and cried out in pain. He was stunned. He had not expected that this little girl would actually know martial arts.

  The pursuing soldiers behind let out a heaven-shaking cheer, and then fell silent again.

  The white horse following closely behind found its master's companion falling off, and suddenly slowed down to a stop. Li Hong knelt on the snowy ground, gazing at the white horse slowly running towards him, laughing with his mouth wide open.

  "Little Snow, Little Snow..." Li Hong flew onto the horse's back, affectionately calling out the white horse's name while fuming with rage. This little girl was determined to make his life miserable. He had traveled thousands of miles to rescue her, only to end up rescuing his enemy instead. That horse was great, though.

  Li Hong sighed inwardly, but his eyes didn't idle. He gazed at the wind and snow in front of him, and immediately flipped over, hiding under the horse's belly. The white horse suddenly accelerated, galloping forward.

  The crack of the wind made his face twisted. This little girl, not a single brain cell, stupid. He hated that he couldn't rush up and scold her harshly. Seeing her turn the horse's head to run back, Lie Kuangfeng was in so much pain that he almost fell off the horse. What kind of world is this? His father spent so much effort raising her, but taught such a fool.

  The soldiers saw the wind and snow galloping back and forth, and one by one they anxiously cried out. Li Hong hid under the white horse's belly, and all the soldiers behind him saw it. They were anxious like ants on a hot pot, their voices hoarse from shouting. But the distance was too far, and the noise was too loud, so no one could hear them.

  The snowstorm on the snowy ground did not see Li Hong, and tears immediately rolled out. She originally planned to turn the horse's head around and let Li Hong ride the white horse back as a memento. For Li Hong's deep affection for her, she could only repay with death. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Li Hong was gone, leaving an empty space on the snowy ground. She didn't have time to think much, instinctively crying out: "Brother Bao, Brother Bao..."

  A white horse galloped in. The wind and snow cried out, searching everywhere for Li Hong in a state of panic. Li Hong suddenly emerged from under the horse's belly, snatched Fengxue from the back of the black leopard, let out a loud roar, then sat back on the horse's back, whistling repeatedly to summon the black leopard to turn around and gallop away together.

  The fierce wind let out a loud roar, venting the tension in his heart. Kobi and Qiong were young and ignorant, shouting loudly to come over. The sound was mixed with the surging cries of surprise and did not stand out, but Helian Bo, who was riding a horse nearby, noticed it.

  He cautiously raised his head, but saw Lie Que's eyes staring at him with a fierce and murderous aura. Helian Bobo felt a sudden chill in his heart for no reason.

  What does he want to do with his crazy wind?
