Chapter 968

"Let's each take a group of troops and continue to chase down."

Tie Shitou twitched the corners of his mouth.

It could only be like this.

"Hurry up, the Marquis's Red Dragon Cloud-Treader is fast, if we don't catch up, the Marquis will have brought back Beigong Boyu's head, and we'll still be spinning around in here," Wang Hunu said.

Tie Shitou nodded: "Good, let's chase."

After saying that, Tie Shitou flicked his horse whip and split his troops to the right.

And Wang Hunu split his troops to the left.

Not long after the two left.

Another group of troops also arrived here.

Han Sui, panting heavily, with Bian Zhang and Yan Xing on his left and right, also stopped at the fork in the road.

"What is this Beigong Boyu doing in here, so many troops have come in, and now they are all scattered."

Bian Zhang, clad in armor and holding a horse whip, frowned and looked at the fork in the road.

Han Sui looked left and right, then said: "I guess he either wants to use the complex terrain here to escape."

"Or he has hidden something here."

"When we were stationed here before, I found that Li Wenhou under Beigong Boyu's command took troops deep into here several times, and also brought those bed crossbows transported from Beidi Commandery."

"Ah?" Bian Zhang was stunned.

"He... he still has an ambush here?"

Bian Zhang asked in surprise: "No wonder, no wonder when attacking the city before, I didn't see those bed crossbows and strong crossbows; were they hidden by him?"

Han Sui shook his head and said: "Hard to say, maybe he just wanted to keep those things for himself."

"Let's go, don't worry about him, the sixty thousand-strong army is gone, this time he is definitely a failure."

"Now the most important thing is to save our lives; it's a good opportunity to take advantage of the chaos to escape while Duan Yu's troops are fighting with those Hu cavalry outside, and Duan Yu himself has entered Xiutu Marsh."

"This is a good opportunity to escape in the chaos."

"If we wait until those Hu cavalry are cleared out, we won't be able to leave even if we want to."

"Go."

Saying that, Han Sui whipped his horse and headed toward the valley road on the right.

More than a thousand Han troops behind also followed the direction chosen by Han Sui.

Swish!

A sharp arrow broke through the air, making a sound of piercing the air, and shot a Huangzhong Yi Cong soldier who was following Beigong Boyu to escape off his horse.

The golden arrowhead pierced through the chest of the cavalryman without slowing down at all, but continued to pierce through the chest of the person in front of him as well.

Bang!

Without warning, the two Huangzhong Yi Cong soldiers fell directly from their horses to the ground, and were then trampled into bloody pulp by the warhorses behind them.

Duan Yu, riding on the Red Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, still maintained the posture of drawing his bow.

This was already the hundredth person Duan Yu had shot down.

When he first chased in, Duan Yu didn't expect the terrain here to be so complex.

This was a miniature version of the Kanas landform.

Not to mention this era, even in an era with communication, being trapped in such a place was equally dangerous.

At first, he could still see Tie Shitou and others following behind.

But as he chased, Duan Yu found that Tie Shitou and others were gone.

But the Huangzhong Yi Cong around Beigong Boyu were also decreasing in number.

At this time, the number of Huangzhong Yi Cong still following Beigong Boyu was less than three hundred.

And this number was constantly decreasing.

Duan Yu on the horse kept drawing his bow, shooting down the Huangzhong Yi Cong who were fleeing with Beigong Boyu.

One reason was to kill the enemy, and the other reason was that he wanted to use this method to leave marks for Tie Shitou, Wang Hunu, and others.

A mere three hundred people, Duan Yu hadn't put them in his eyes yet.

As long as Beigong Boyu dared to stop, there was only a dead end.

Along the way, Beigong Boyu and Li Wenhou had several thousand cavalry beside them.

But every time they passed an intersection, Beigong Boyu would split off some troops.

The intention was to use this method to confuse Duan Yu's pursuit.

Unfortunately, Beigong Boyu underestimated the speed of the Red Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast.

On the Red Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, Duan Yu prepared to draw his bow again, but looked down and found that there were no more arrows in his quiver.

Just then, a forty-five-degree turn appeared ahead.

Duan Yu frowned and urged his horse rapidly.

"Run, I'd like to see where you can run to!"

After chasing and turning the corner, Duan Yu found that the front was a huge, basin-like terrain.

It was about the size of a basketball court.

Opposite the position where Duan Yu chased out, there was another exit.

And Beigong Boyu, who had been fleeing all the way, was now blocking the exit with the remaining few hundred Huangzhong Yi Cong behind him.

Hmm?

Duan Yu frowned.

He looked at Beigong Boyu.

Why did this guy stop running?

Subconsciously, Duan Yu cast his gaze toward the towering weathered shale on both sides.

The weathered shale on both sides was piled up three stories high, like the stands of a stadium.

Behind Beigong Boyu was the only exit.

Behind Duan Yu was also the only entrance.

It looked like a ticket gate and an exit for leaving the venue.

Hanging the treasure-carved bow on the saddle, Duan Yu took down the Heavenly Dragon Halberd.

"Marquis of Ji..."

"This is the first time I have been so close to the Marquis of Ji."

Beigong Boyu in the distance said with a smile: "This is also the first time the Marquis of Ji has seen me, right?"

The voice entered Duan Yu's ears clearly.

Duan Yu smiled, shook the Heavenly Dragon Halberd in his hand, and the sand on it fell off.

"The first time, and also the last time; any last words?" Duan Yu said while slowly walking his horse toward Beigong Boyu.

Beigong Boyu suddenly chuckled.

"Yes, I'm afraid this is also the last time I see the Marquis of Ji."

"I spent more than half a year, at the cost of the lives of tens of thousands of people, just to lure the Marquis of Ji here, but unfortunately, this is my last meeting with the Marquis of Ji."

"Tsk tsk."

Beigong Boyu said while shaking his head: "It's really a pity, a pity that the Marquis of Ji is a hero of a generation, never defeated, but today he is going to die in this desolate place."

Duan Yu looked at Beigong Boyu with a cold gaze.

Suddenly, a loud noise came from behind.

Duan Yu turned his head abruptly and found that the entrance he came from had collapsed from both sides.

"Haha!"

Beigong Boyu looked up to the sky and laughed loudly.

As Beigong Boyu's laughter rang out.

A large number of Huangzhong Yi Cong holding strong crossbows appeared above his head in an instant.

Duan Yu looked up slightly at the surroundings above his head.

Besides strong crossbows, there were actually bed crossbows that could only be used for defending the city.

Strong crossbows!

Bed crossbows! ===== CHAPTER 970 =====
