Unlike the tense confrontation between the Jizhou Army and the Northern Xinjiang Army, the Yan King Li Mao seemed to have long forgotten that he was the overlord of Northern Xinjiang, and broke into the Jizhou Army alone, killing all parties.
To be honest, Xie An actually thought about asking the army to attack. By then, let alone Li Mao, he was considered a rare hero in the world. Even if he had two heroes, Liang Qiuhao and Zhen Lei, attached to him. Even the body cannot escape this calamity.
The reason why Xie An did not give such an order was simply because he was concerned about the Northern Xinjiang army in the distance. The soldiers in Northern Xinjiang were ignored for the time being, but the more than 20,000 Yuyang cavalry could not help but make Xie An wary.
The distance between the two armies was only two to three hundred feet, which was so close that any cavalry could rush in front of the enemy in an instant. Under such circumstances, even Xie An did not dare to Take it lightly, after all, right now, his Jizhou Army is the last hope to repel the Northern Xinjiang Army. If even his Jizhou Army is defeated, then King Li Mao of Yan can easily seize at least half of the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, at least none of the entire Hebei Province. Doubts will be eliminated across the board.
"Could it be that he is using himself as bait to force us to use all our strength to capture and kill him, so that the northern Xinjiang army can take advantage of it?" ]
Seeing Li Mao's domineering appearance in his own Jizhou army, Xie An frowned slightly and thought to himself.
"It won't be good if this continues" From the side, the Eight Sages King Li Xian frowned and said.
"Hmm!" Xie An nodded when he heard this.
In fact, he also knew very well in his heart that although not even one-tenth of his Jizhou Army had been dispatched at the moment, to put it bluntly, there were only a few thousand people fighting with Li Mao. As for the other troops of the main division. However, there has never been any movement, let alone the three partial armies of Fei Guo, Ma Dan and Liao Lina.
However, although the Jizhou soldiers did not take any serious action for the time being in order to find out the intentions of King Yan Li Mao, as it is now, thousands of Jizhou soldiers were massacred by Li Mao with only one person's power, which was bad for morale. It is undoubtedly an immeasurable damage.
"Dibu!" After thinking for a while, Xie An raised his finger and pointed in the direction of King Yan Li Mao, and said in a deep voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, among the people riding behind Xie An and Li Xian, Dibu, the warden of the heavy prison of the Great Prison Temple, rode out, hugged his fists towards Xie An and Li Xian, and immediately carried a With a spear as thick as a child's arm, he headed towards Yan King Li Mao's horse.
Strictly speaking, it¡¯s the same as Mo Fei. Dibu does not belong to the Jizhou Army, nor does it belong to the military system. They are under the jurisdiction of Dajiu Temple. To put it bluntly, they are law enforcement officials. However, it is undeniable that Dibu is the only two generals under Xie An who can compete with the most powerful generals of the Jizhou Army. Fei Guo's fierce general. As for the other person, of course it was Liao Li.
"I'm afraid it's not enough for the eldest brother alone"
Looking at the background of Dib leaving. His sworn brother Gou Gong, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Dongling, frowned and said.
"" Xie An remained silent. In fact, he knew it very well. Although Di Bu is already one of the few powerful generals in the world, he is still far behind generals at the level of Li Mao, Liang Qiu Hao, Zhen Lei, and Liang Qiu Wu. Otherwise, why would he be so cautious? Like dealing with the Taiping Army in Guangling. Just ask the Jizhou Army under his command to crush him and that would be the end of it.
"Let's take a look first!" Xie An slightly said absently, looking in Li Mao's direction.
Hearing this, Gou Gong said nothing more, but after sighing, he said rather reluctantly. "If your Excellency and His Highness the King Xian don't mind the way Yan King Li Mao died, it would be a humble position"
Gou Gong did not continue, but his meaning was made very clear. For him who is proficient in poisons, it is not impossible for him to assassinate anyone, unless that person is as proficient in pharmacology as Jin Ling'er.
Perhaps because he heard some heart-wrenching words, Li Xian, the Eight Wise King, couldn't help turning his head to look at Gou Gong and said with a wry smile, "Although Gou Shaoqing's proposal is good, it is unjust! - No matter what Li Mao said, The border general who was stationed in Yuyang, in the north of the Great Wall, had considerable meritorious service and won the support of the soldiers and people of Youyan. He was very different from the previous Three Kings' turmoil At the moment, Li Mao, as a minister, was acting in the opposite direction, killing the unjust soldiers. He is the one who failed to be benevolent and righteous by attacking our capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty; and if we act according to Gou Shaoqing's suggestion and kill Li Mao, once this matter spreads, it will have a great impact on the dignity of our court In short, Li Maoxing is unjust. If the soldiers do unjust things, the imperial court must not retaliate with teeth. On the contrary, it must exert more benevolence and righteousness. In this way, the hearts of the people in the world will gradually return to my imperial court, not to Northern Xinjiang!"
"Is it true that those who have attained the Dao will receive much help, while those who have lost the Dao will receive little help?" Gou Gong murmured after hearing this.
?Looking at Gou Gong with some surprise, Li Xian nodded and said, "That's right! If King Xingren's army is to do benevolent and righteous things, to rectify chaos and ward off chaos, then our army will definitely win this battle!"
Gou Gong nodded in agreement.
At this time, Di Bu, the warden of the heavy prison of Dajiu Temple, had already driven his war horse to King Yan Li Mao, and waved away the Jizhou soldiers who were confronting Li Mao.
"ninety-seven!"
With a swing of the heavy halberd of dragon and tiger in his hand, a Jizhou soldier was cut off at the waist. Li Mao looked around, as if he was surprised that the Jizhou soldier who had been coming like a tide just now suddenly retreated.
Looking up, Li Mao finally saw Dibu, a strong man riding a tall horse. Even he had a flash of surprise in his eyes.
[Good guy, this guy is so majestic! ]
Li Mao was slightly shocked.
You know, in the Jizhou army, Fei Guo, who is about nine feet tall, is already a strong man who is worth looking up to. He is a head taller than an ordinary person, but Dibu is even stronger than Fei Guo, and is actually taller than the latter. The man was half a head taller, which made Dibu rein in his horse and stand there, giving Yan King Li Mao a powerful intimidation.
"Come and give me your name!" King Yan Li Mao shouted in a deep voice as he put away the Dragon-Tiger Halberd in his hand.
It¡¯s not that he was bluffed by Di Bu¡¯s appearance. In fact, Li Mao just liked martial artists from the bottom of his heart. The stronger the martial artist was, the more he liked him. Perhaps this is related to the fact that he was taught martial arts by Liang Qiu Gong since he was a child and spent time in the Eastern Army barracks.
"Although Dibu was born in an assassin's nest and now serves as the warden of the Great Prison Prison, he actually has the air of a military commander at heart, holding a gun and holding a fist. The buzzing voice said, "In the Great Prison Temple, lock the prison head again, Dibu!"
"The prison head of the Great Prison Temple?" Li Mao was stunned when he heard this. You must know that he had the intention of surrendering, but he listened to the other party's words. He immediately gave up the idea of ??surrendering. After all, who doesn¡¯t know that the Great Prison Temple is the government office where Xie An made his fortune, and now that Dibu can hold the unusual position of prison chief in the Great Prison Temple, there is no doubt that this strong man named Dibu He must be Xie An's loyal confidant.
[It turns out you are Xie An¡¯s confidant. In that case, I will kill you first and cut off Xie An¡¯s arm! ¡ª¡ªIt¡¯s a pity that this person is so pretentious]
With a slight snort, Li Mao's eyes suddenly opened. He waved the dragon-tiger halberd in his hand to kill Dibu.
You must know that Li Mao and Xie An have different hatreds for beauty. Xie An not only took away the woman whom Li Xian, the Eight Sages King, admired, but also took away Li Mao, the overlord of Northern Xinjiang's secretly appointed mistress. The difference is that Li Mao is obviously not as open-minded as Li Xian. No matter how others persuade him, he is still stubborn. To put it bluntly, he is still stubborn. Just very cautious.
Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why the late Emperor Li Ji was not satisfied with Li Mao, the number one warrior of his Li family in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Because although Li Mao has the heroic character of a warrior, he also has the extreme tendency of a warrior to retaliate. In terms of broad-mindedness, he is far inferior to the former crown prince Li Wei, King of Qin Li Shen, and King of Anling Li Cheng, let alone the Eight Wise King Li Xian.
"Huh¡ª¡ª"
Before the heavy halberd arrives, the strong wind arrives first. Since Dibu became a disciple of Duke Liangqiu, he has occasionally competed with Liangqiu Wu, Fei Guo and others in martial arts. What's more, he has seen the terror of Liang Qiuhao, an unparalleled hero. This time, his heart felt like a raging wave crashing against the rocks. .
Without having time to think about it, Dibu subconsciously used all his strength. He fiercely threw up the spear as thick as a child's arm.
[I don¡¯t believe that your arm strength can beat the great mistress! ]
"The tiger's eyes were red, with a hint of murderous intent, Dibu said secretly.
However, at this moment, Dibu noticed a look of contempt in Li Mao's eyes.
Before Dibu could understand, he heard a soft clang, and the heavy dragon-tiger halberd struck by King Yan Li Mao bounced high in the air due to Dibu's strength.
[What? Is this Li Mao just an empty shelf? ]
Dibu became even more confused. Before he could react, Li Mao snorted softly. The Dragon-Tiger Halberd that was bounced up in his right hand fell down to his right side due to gravity. At this moment Li Mao put his left hand behind his back and grabbed the Dragon-Tiger Halberd. At the same time, his right hand changed the grip to a reverse grip. With a strong effort, the Dragon-Tiger Halberd miraculously spun around his shoulder. circle, and once again hit Dibu's chest.
It turns out that Li Mao¡¯s previous heavy chop was just a feint attack, and this move from bottom to top was the real killing move.
"Crack¡ª¡ª"
How could Dibu have expected it? He had no time to retract his spear, and the armor on his chest was completely cut open by King Yan Li Mao. Immediately, Yin Hong's blood flowed out.Come out.
"How is it possible" Dibu looked at the red color on his chest in disbelief. He raised his head dumbfounded and stared blankly at the man in front of him who looked like a warrior god in the golden helmet, Yan King Li Mao.
"Oh?" Seemingly noticing Di Bu's distraction, Yan King Li Mao was not in a hurry to pursue the victory and said calmly, "I heard that you and Fei Guo, the commander of the Jizhou Army, became a disciple of the Liangqiu family. Wu, why, haven¡¯t I, Master King, and Senior Sister Xiao Wu ever been friends with you? This Liangqiu family¡¯s marksmanship chariot fire!"
"Wheelfire?" Dibu was more shocked than ever. You must know that although he officially joined the Liangqiu family, Liangqiu Gong did not actually teach him and Fei Guo such exquisite and profound moves. More are just some of the basics.
For example, taking horse steps and punching, it is said that Liang Qiuhao and Liangqiu Wu, cousins, spent two years just doing horse steps. Besides, Xie An, during the three years he practiced martial arts and kept fit, Liang Qiu Wu He only taught him one move on how to punch.
It¡¯s not that you are hiding anything, this is just the ancestral motto of the Liangqiu family. Just like a baby learning to walk for the first time, you can¡¯t even walk yet, and you still dream of learning to run? Let¡¯s start by crawling!
It¡¯s no wonder, after all, generations of members of the Liangqiu family have to master the double-edged sword skill of Mist Flame. To master this skill, the disciples of the Liangqiu family are required to have an extremely solid foundation. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't even be able to pass the age of seven to ten years old.
Don¡¯t look at Fei Guo and Dibu walking out as if they could fight one against a hundred. But in Liang Qiu Gong's view, the two of them are just using their extraordinary talents to use them randomly. Unless they are a genius like Liang Qiu Hao, no one can compete with the Liang Qiu family on their own. The wisdom that has been passed down for hundreds of years is compared.
Ever since. During those days at the Liangqiu family, Dibu and Fei Guo just followed Liangqiu Gong's instructions and gradually modified their past habits of using power. Although this was very difficult, it also benefited them a lot.
But this also led to Di Bu not even recognizing the Liangqiu family's marksmanship used by King Yan Li Mao, and he failed with just one move.
One move to defeat the enemy!
Not to mention the sudden uproar among the Jizhou troops, even Xie An had a look of horror on his face.
?To be fair. He heard his wife Liang Qiu Wu say it more than once that Li Mao was a disciple of her Liang Qiu family, and his marksmanship made him superb. However, because he had never seen Liang Qiu Wu use his marksmanship before, Xie An subconsciously thought that the Liang Qiu family focused on Focus on swords rather than spears and halberds.
In fact, Liang Qiuwu also used a gun at first, but later during the Battle of Jizhou, she seized the "Wolf Slash", a sword forged by the Canglang tribe after all the tribesmen. It can produce flames out of thin air to increase its lethality. Therefore, Liang Qiu Wu should use the sword.
In fact, Xie An can also think more about it. If the Liangqiu family really valued swords rather than spears and halberds, why did Liang Qiuhao teach him marksmanship instead of anything else when he returned to Jijing to stay in his house temporarily?
Thinking about it, it stands to reason that the Liangqiu family has commanded the cavalry of the Shenwu Camp of the Eastern Army for generations. It should be more experienced and knowledgeable in the use of long weapons such as spears and halberds.
"It's not good" The left eye was twitching, and the right eye was twitching fiercely. Xie An instinctively felt that his right eyelid was twitching non-stop.
[Is the Liangqiu family¡¯s marksmanship? ]
Xie An took a breath and felt a slight pain in his forehead.
Liang Qiuhao, Zhenlei, and Li Mao are among the three great heroes whose reputations are known throughout the world. If you ask who among them is the easiest to deal with.
Previously, Xie An would have chosen Li Mao without hesitation.
After all, Liang Qiu Hao is the most outstanding contemporary legitimate son of the Liang Qiu family. Even though he has no mentor and his martial arts has been neglected for at least seven years, he can still rely on his memory and incredible talent to suppress his cousin Liang Qiu Wu.
This talent is absolutely unprecedented, and it can be said to be a rare talent that has been seen for hundreds of years.
As for Zhen Lei, he was the only enemy general who died without seeing his body during Xie An's southern campaign. After all, in order to kill this man, thousands of Jizhou soldiers dragged him and dragged him into the deep. Bottomless swampy abyss.
As the saying goes, you must see a person in life and a corpse in death. Of course, Xie An at that time also wanted to use a more practical way to kill Zhenlei with a sword. However, Zhenlei made the Jizhou Army see it. When such a great hero in the world How terrifying it would be without the burden of external objects.
The Jizhou army should feel lucky. If not for the decisive battle at the Battle of Victory Valley, Liang Qiuhao had no choice but to break out in order to save Liu Qing and could not bear to kill his cousin-in-law Xie An; if not for the Jizhou army in the grass forest outside Xiangyang, who wisely killed all Zhen Leishen first. The white water sergeant next to him, I'm afraid the battle situation will not be like thisThis is what happened.
But having said that, whether it was a fluke or not, Liang Qiuhao and Zhenlei, two invincible heroes, have also died in battle. Logically speaking, the remaining Yan King Li Mao will be easier to deal with.
Indeed, Xie An did think so before this, until King Yan Li Mao defeated Dibu with just one move. Only then did Xie An realize that perhaps Yan King Li Mao did not have the amazing talent of Liang Qiu Hao, nor the incredibly powerful intuition of Zhen Lei, nor the ability of Liang Qiu Wu to activate Mist Flame at any time. With his bloodline, or like Jin Ling'er, he can use golden needles to stimulate acupuncture points and have talents comparable to Wuyan in a short time. However, Li Mao is a student of Liang Qiu Gong and has studied under Liang Qiu Gong's careful instruction since he was a child. Martial Arts and the Art of War.
In other words, the King of Yan Li Mao that Xie An is facing now is like a member of the Liangqiu family who cannot activate the Mist Flame trick. In addition, Li Mao is proficient in all the moves of the Liangqiu family, especially spear skills.
[No way¡¡]
Thinking of this, Xie An raised his head and once again focused his attention on King Yan Li Mao in the distance.
At this time, Fei Guo and Liao Li had also arrived at Dibu's side, looking at Li Mao with hostility.
"Are there just three of them?" Under the golden helmet, a hint of ridicule appeared on Li Mao's face. He raised his fingers and said, "Everyone who comes here is named!"
Fei Guo and Liao Li looked at each other, followed the rules of fighting generals in front of the formation, cupped their hands and clasped their fists, and declared their identities.
"The commander of the first branch of the Jizhou Army, Fei Guo!"
"The commander-in-chief of the Jizhou Army's partial division, Liao Li!"
"Oh? Are they the two of you?" King Yan Li Mao's tiger eyes bloomed a little when he heard this, and he snorted coldly, "It was you two who blocked my two Yuyang cavalry a while ago, right? I am still thinking about this. When can I avenge the shame of my Yuyang cavalry soldiers? I don¡¯t want you two to dare to appear in front of me! - What about Ma Dan? Why don¡¯t you come to challenge me? Ask me to join you today. Wouldn¡¯t it be better if I killed you and waited?¡±
"" Fei Guo was furious when he heard this, but because Li Mao had been famous for a long time, he reluctantly endured it.
As for Liao Li, he was extremely impulsive back then, but now his temperament has changed drastically. When he saw Li Mao's rude words, he didn't want to waste any time talking about it. He just secretly held back his energy and decided to make him look good later, even if he couldn't be captured. People will definitely lose their face.
With their own thoughts in mind, Fei Guo, Liao Li and Dibu looked at each other, then rode their horses to slowly surround Li Mao, looking for an opportunity to make a move.
At the same time, in the main formation of the Jizhou Army's main division, Mo Fei, the top assassin of the Dongling Army, nimbly passed through the soldiers like a fish swimming in the water and came to Xie An's side. He whispered a few words to him. Xie An's eyebrows twitched when he heard this, and then he frowned tightly.
"What? The overwhelming cavalry?" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
