Chapter 122
A stick of incense has passed.
The time for horse selection was over, and nine figures galloped across the board, and in an instant they arrived at the place where they had just set out.
Gathering ready to go.
Everyone rode on their newly selected horses. The new horses did not have saddles or stirrups, but the nine people rode on the horses with a strong posture and a strong spirit, and there was no discomfort.
It can be seen that the equestrian skills practiced by the eight people in Jibei since childhood are extraordinary and superb.
Long Qingyun was quite shocked. Everyone in the group of young people in their twenties had excellent riding skills. No wonder the Donghan Iron Cavalry dominated the world, which was inseparable from the Jurchens' living habits that were good at riding and shooting since childhood.
In contrast, Nanyong is mainly infantry, so no wonder the battlefield fighting is at a disadvantage.
The area north of the Huai River has a wide and flat terrain, which is conducive to the large-scale deep combat of the cavalry. In the southern region, mountains, rivers, and gullies are not conducive to the implementation of the cavalry, so Nanyong can barely confront Donghan and north-south.
But to send troops to the Northern Expedition and restore the Central Plains, cavalry units must be developed.
Long Qingyun looked at the eight people sitting on the horse, majestic and strong, and could not help but sigh and sigh, and was filled with excitement.
Thoughts flew around.
The celebrant pointed his hand to the west, and a loud voice sounded: "There is a hill ten miles ahead, with three red, yellow and blue flags on the ground. The red flag represents the Liema Hall, the yellow flag represents the Jincaotang, and the blue flag represents the Xiongfeng Hall. The flag that was the first to return here is the winner."
The emcee was a young man of twenty-five or six years old, wearing white clothes, a tall nose and wide face, with a dignified appearance, and mighty and fierce. He gave him an order: "Start run!"
Nine men and nine riders galloped towards the hills to the west with lightning speed. Many people in the audience rode horses and followed.
Mo Zhixuan and Lin Luoxuan also followed closely behind and rode their horses to follow.
Long Qingyun rode the chasing Feng, and it was indeed a good horse. His four hooves churned, and his speed suddenly increased. He soon exceeded several cavalry, catching up with Dong Qimao and Ma Jianhao, followed by Dou Dashan and Ma Jianwen.
Half a cup of tea.
The hills were looking at them, and from a distance, there were three red, yellow and blue flags on the ground, fluttering in the wind.
Arrived near. Suddenly! Dong Qimao and Ma Jianhao rose into the air and landed in front of the flag almost at the same time. As soon as they landed, the two did not pull the flag, but fought directly.
A cold light flashed, Ma Jianhao swung the cold iron short sword, and the "Three Mad Sword Styles" came out sharply, with a forceful momentum. Dong Qimao twisted the sword and blocked it, and suddenly felt that the opponent's internal strength was amazing, even stronger than Ma Jianwen.
Long Qingyun was surprised and his mind moved with his thoughts. He immediately realized that the act of pulling the flag could also fight and fight with each other.
Thinking of this, Long Qingyun quickly turned over and got off the horse and came to the flag. If he pulled up the blue flag and ran away at this time, I believe no one can stop him, and there is no suspense to win the championship.
But Long Qingyun did not do this. He drew out the Zhanlu sword and bullied him. It happened that Ma Jianhao used the "land collapse and cracked the earth" in the "Three Mad Sword Styles". His strength was strong and he slashed at Dong Qimao. Suddenly, a cold light sword was handed over from the slanting prick, and Ma Jianhao's powerful and domineering attack.
Long Qingyun said loudly: "Brother Dong, go and pull the flag, I'll stop it."
Ma Jianhao was smart. When he saw Long Qingyun coming, he knew that he could not resist it. He followed the force of swinging, jumped up to the yellow flag, pulled up the flag, and threw it into the east. At this time, Ma Jianwen and Dou Dawei were coming towards him.
Ma Jianwen jumped and rushed more than ten feet high. In the air, he stretched out his right hand and took over the yellow flag. Dou Dawei, who was next to him, did not draw his sword to snipe Ma Jianwen, and went straight to the red flag on the hill.
This happened in a flash of lightning. The situation was a turn, which was shocking.
It is a comprehensive consideration of fighting wits and courage. The three brothers Ma Jianhao have a tacit understanding and should have discussed the countermeasures in advance;
Dou Dawei abandoned Ma Jianwen and ignored it, and expected that Xiongfengtang would intercept it halfway. Among the three major horse farms in Jibei, Liematang is the weakest. Only by drawing the red flag first and waiting for an opportunity to win can one have a chance to win.
Dong Qimao was also very surprised. Unexpectedly, Ma Jianhao was smart and tricky, so he had such a trick. However, at this time, he could not think too much. Raising the blue flag and returning was the best strategy. I hope that Dong Qisheng could stop Ma Jianwen halfway, even if he couldn't stop him, he could hold him back. He could buy time and return to the original place first, and win the championship.
Ma Jianhao was meticulous and did not chase Dong Qimao. He knew in his heart that dragging Long Qingyun was the key. With Ma Jianwen's skills, he should be able to avoid Dong Qisheng's interception in the middle. Besides, Ma Jianwu can also attack and support Ma Jianwen.
Although it is a horse racing and flag-winning competition, it also requires the arrangement of troops and arrangements, which is actually a battle of wits and courage, and tests the cooperation and teamwork ability of both sides.
At this time, the battle situation had entered a white-hot stage. It was not how fierce the fight was, but the plot was full of twists and turns. Seeing that Xiongfengtang led the two to reach the hill first, the situation was very good. But Ma Jianhao was extremely clever and threw the yellow flag to Ma Jianwen, causing the situation to change greatly. Xiongfengtang would have to intercept it wildly.
Is this an opportunity for Liematang?
The onlookers scattered around the grass were sitting on horseback and watching. The unpredictable situation on the field touched everyone's hearts.
Mo Zhixuan and Lin Luoxuan sat side by side on the horse, rode their horses to the opposite side of the hill, and looked at the figures on the hill.
Lin Luoxuan was generous and glorious, looking around, and said casually:
"I know Ma Jianhao. Among the three brothers of the Ma family, although he was born from a side house, his martial arts are the most solid. Although Long Shaoxia's martial arts are outstanding, it is probably not easy to get rid of Ma Jianhao quickly without hurting people."
Mo Zhixuan agreed deeply, and a hint of anxiety appeared on her delicate and charming face, but this was not the case in her words, and she said frankly: "This dragon guard is not difficult, you can continue to watch, and it will be unique soon."
The sound is crisp and pleasant, like a yellow oriole in the valley. The charming face is bright and lively, and every frown and smile, a peerless face that is fascinating to the whole country and the city is revealed.
Lin Luoxuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "What a beautiful woman, I am a man, and I will fall in love with him." Thinking of this, Long Qingyun, who was fighting in the distance, was wearing a blue shirt, and was handsome and handsome. He couldn't help but feel distracted, and felt a sense of hopeless loneliness.
Of course, Long Qingyun knew that time was tight, and Ma Jianhao had a solid foundation in martial arts. If he did not use a killer move, it would not be solved in just a few tricks.
It is not appropriate to use killer moves at this time.
Long Qingyun, who made up his mind, used the "Mist-River to Fly the Clouds" in the "Sword of Breaking the Sky", and the sword was wide and unleashed, like rolling white clouds, galloping towards Ma Jianhao.
When Ma Jianhao saw Long Qingyun suddenly change his move, he stared away, not the way to fight in the martial arts field. In the flash, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and he flashed sideways and jumped away.
Ma Jianhao finally avoided Long Qingyun's sharp and domineering attack. He felt relieved and suddenly looked at him.
Long Qingyun jumped up in a blue shirt.
Falling on the back of the white horse "chasing the wind".
