On the day of the winter solstice, the heavy snow fell for a whole day before stopping. It took three days for the snow on the ground to melt. However, after melting, the dirt road became muddy and became increasingly difficult to walk.
A few days later, Chao Yong saw that the road was half frozen and half dry and ready for marching. During the meal, he talked to Chao Gai about attacking Zengtou City.
When Chao Gai heard that Chao Yong was going to lead the troops to attack Zengtou City in person, he immediately shook his head and said, "Your injury has not healed yet, so I'd better lead the troops myself."
Chao Yong smiled and said: "Although I still can't draw the divine arm bow, my ordinary strong bow is not a problem, and it is enough to go into battle to kill the enemy. Besides, there is no need for me to take action if Officer Lu is out to capture Shi Wengong."
Chao Gai was still worried about Chao Yong, and shook his head and said: "You are not in good health, and I am afraid that you will be injured again after traveling a long distance. It is better to stay in the mountain and rest in peace."
Both He and Hu Sanniang also advised Chao Yong not to lead the army.
But Chao Yong was afraid that Chao Gai would lead his troops to attack Zengtou City but still not be able to escape the arrow. Seeing that everyone disagreed, he had to pretend to be the Nine Heavens Xuannv again and said: "The Xuannv Empress entrusted me with a dream. This Shi Wengong and Lu Junyi are My right-hand man, if I don¡¯t go, I¡¯m afraid his life will be at risk.¡±
The three people immediately stopped saying anything to stop him, and just told Chao Yong to be careful.
The next day, Chao Gai summoned the leaders to discuss the attack on Zengtou City.
Seeing that Lu Junyi had no equal in the world with his gun and stick, Wu Yong became more confident and wanted to lead the troops to avenge his humiliation. However, Chao Gai did not give him a chance and said at the beginning that Chao Yong would lead the troops.
Lu Junyi also learned from Lin Chong that Liangshan invited him to join the army that day to deal with Shi Wengong of Zengtou City. He stood up and said: "Lu was rescued by Brother Meng Yong and others, but they failed to respond. Now that Brother Yong is leading the army, Lu I am willing to risk my life to move forward.¡±
Chao Yong nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, there are still many ways to rely on Lu Yuanwai in this battle."
Li Kui also jumped up immediately and said: "I took an arrow last time, and I am going to take revenge this time."
When Lu Zhishen and other leaders who were burned heard this, they immediately shouted for revenge.
Chao Yong saw that everyone's fighting spirit was high, so he still ordered the thirty leaders from the previous round, including Lin Chong, the leopard leader, Dong Ping, the double spear general, Luan Tingyu, the iron rod general, Xu Ning, the golden spear general, Li Ying, the flying eagle, and Qin Ming, the thunderbolt fire general. , Xiao Li Guang Huarong, Double Whip Hu Yanzhuo, Yum General Han Tao, Tianmu General Peng Qi, Wu Yujian Zhang Qing, Hua Xiang Hu Gong Wang, Zhongjian Hu Ding Desun, Dadao Guan Sheng, Choujun Ma Xuanzan, Jing Muyan Hao Siwen, flower monk Lu Zhishen, green-faced beast Yang Zhi, red-haired ghost Liu Tang, black whirlwind Li Kui, faceless Jiao Ting, eight-armed Nezha Xiang Chong, flying great sage Li Gun, brocade leopard Yang Lin, demon king Fan Rui, Wu Zhizhi Thirty people including Mu Hong, skyscraper golden-winged Ou Peng, iron flute fairy Ma Lin, Xiao Wen Hou Lu Fang, Sai Rengui Guo Sheng, plus Jade Unicorn Lu Junyi, prodigal Yan Qing, desperate Saburo Shi Xiu, magic Taibao Dai Zong, Drum Shangflea Time moved five people.
The next day, Chao Yong led thirty-five leaders and five thousand soldiers and horses towards Zengtou City.
After Zengtou City defeated the Liangshan soldiers and horses, spies were also set up in the south to prevent the Liangshan soldiers and horses from retaliating.
As soon as the Liangshan army entered the territory of Cangzhou, the spies reported to Zengtou City.
After hearing this, Elder Zeng hurriedly called Shi Wengong and Lao Wu Zeng Sheng, who were left behind, to discuss countermeasures.
Zeng Sheng had recovered from his leg injury. When he heard that the Liangshan thieves were coming to attack, he immediately shouted: "The Liangshan thieves killed my two brothers earlier, and this time they will take revenge. My teacher and I led the troops out to kill him." "
When Elder Zeng heard this, he immediately said: "Last time, five of your brothers were here, and two of them were killed. How could you two stand against the thieves?"
Zeng Sheng said, "I was injured by the thieves because I underestimated the enemy. What's more, the teacher is brave enough. Last time, I rode into the camp alone. Although I didn't kill the leader of the thieves, I still scared them away. Now the assistant teacher and The eldest brother and the third brother are not in the stronghold. If the thieves come to the city, I am afraid that the eldest brother and the others will be blocked outside. If I and the teacher go to kill them for a while, we can still stop them even if they cannot be killed. "
Shi Wengong also nodded and said: "The Liangshan thieves returned from defeat in the previous battle. They must have countermeasures when they come this time. Don't underestimate the enemy. The Grand Duke will also quickly send people to recall the assistant teachers and others to defend them. What Wu Lang said is also reasonable. If allowed, The thieves marched straight in, and I was afraid that the assistant teacher and the others would be stopped outside. Otherwise, I and Wu Lang would lead a thousand troops to harass the thieves along the way and block the thieves' advance. The Taigong sent people to recall the three assistant teachers and dig more outside the stronghold. Trap, take advantage of it.¡±
Elder Zeng thought about it and felt that if he only relied on the two thousand soldiers and horses in Zengtou City to hold on, he would be afraid of insufficient troops, so he said: "Since the teacher also said so, there should be no mistake. This time, the teacher will be the main one. Children must obey the teacher¡¯s instructions in everything and not be reckless.¡±
Zeng Sheng also admired Shi Wengong¡¯s martial arts skills and was not dissatisfied with Elder Zeng¡¯s decision.
The two men immediately ordered a thousand men and came to meet the Liangshan army.
Lu Junyi rode at the front of the team. Although the weather was cold, Lu Junyi was full of fighting spirit.
After the army went out, Chao Yong made him the vanguard general, commanding two thousand soldiers and horses to advance first.
Lu Junyi¡¯s martial nature was instantly activated, and he fell in love with the feeling of commanding thousands of troops.
Yan Qing followed Lu Junyi on horseback. After marching for many days, this romantic man gained some heroic spirit as a soldier.
When the army was slowly moving forward, they saw a probing horse coming from the front and shouted: "Report, there are soldiers and horses from Zengtou City ahead."
Although Lu Junyi was leading an army for the first time, he was the one who almost won the first prize at that time. He was not in a hurry to give orders, but asked: "How many soldiers and horses are there in Zengtou City? Who is leading the army?"
"About a thousand people, under the banner of Shi Wengong and Zeng Sheng."
Lu Junyi didn't expect that Shi Wengong would actually come to his door more than thirty miles away from Zengtou City. He raised his arm to stop the entire army. He turned around and saw that the terrain on the side of the road was flat, which was suitable for a decisive battle. He immediately moved his troops to one side and formed a formation to wait. .
When Shi Wengong led his troops and rushed forward, he saw that Liangshan's troops and horses were already waiting in formation, so he also reined in his troops and horses.
Zeng Sheng couldn't wait to ride out of the battle, shouting: "Liangshan grass bandits, they killed two of my brothers before, but they dare to come here today to seek death. Those who are not afraid of death, just come out."
Zhang Qing¡¯s previous expedition to Zengtou City failed to gain any merit, but this time he did not delay. When he saw Zeng Sheng provoking a fight, he rode out.
Zeng Sheng saw Zhang Qing coming out of the formation and immediately came to greet him with his sword drawn.
Zhang Qing had already hidden a flying stone in his hand. He looked at Zeng Shenglai's vicinity, raised his arm, and a stone hit Zeng Sheng between his eyebrows.
Zeng Sheng did not expect that Zhang Qing would release flying rocks before they could fight. It was too late to dodge, so he quickly used the steel knife in his hand to block it.
"when"
The flying stones were hitting the blade, and sparks were shooting out.
Zeng Sheng was startled when he heard the crisp sound on the blade in front of him. He was still in shock, and then he saw Zhang Qing stabbing him with a spear, and another steel knife hurriedly slashed away at the head of Zhang Qing's spear.
"Keng"
After all, Zeng Sheng was a little slow in blocking the flying stone. Although he was slashing at the tip of Zhang Qing's spear, Zhang Qing's spear had already stabbed in front of him. He cut it down with his knife, and the tip of the spear hit his leg again.
Zhang Qing swung his spear, and the tip of the spear lifted up his armor and pierced Zeng Sheng's thigh. With a swoop, Zeng Sheng was lifted off the horse.
Shi Wengong didn¡¯t expect that when Zeng Sheng fought against the leader of Liangshan twice, both his legs would be injured.
Seeing Zeng Sheng fall off his horse, he quickly hit the horse to rescue him.
Seeing Zeng Sheng fall from his horse, the scratching hook hand who specializes in catching generals here in Liangshan immediately rushed out of the formation and launched more than a dozen scratching hooks towards Zeng Sheng.
Zeng Sheng was stabbed in the leg by Zhang Qing, and he was thrown off his horse. He almost fainted from the pain. Before he could figure out the situation, he was caught by more than a dozen scratching hooks, and he felt that the whole world began to go backwards.
I was dizzy for a moment and could only shout: "Teacher, help me."
Seeing Zeng Sheng being dragged towards the Liangshan formation, Shi Wengong pinched the horse's belly again and rushed towards Zeng Sheng who was retreating rapidly.
Zhang Qing had not played against Shi Wengong before, but he was still a little dissatisfied with Shi Wengong. When he saw Shi Wengong coming, he took the stone in his hand.
??Looking at where Shi Wengong was coming, he raised his hand and hit the door facing Shi Wengong.
Shi Wengong had seen Zhang Qing's flying stone tactics before. How could he not be on guard? When he raised his hand, he just turned his head and dodged it. At the same time, Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand stabbed Zhang Qing fiercely.
Zhang Qing did not expect that he would not be able to seize the opportunity even after releasing the flying rocks, so he hurriedly danced with the spear in his hand to block it.
When the weapons met, Zhang Qing felt a huge force pouring back down the gun body, and his whole body shook uncontrollably.
Shi Wengong forced Zhang Qing away, but did not look back and chased Zeng Sheng straight away.
Zeng Sheng was dragged for a while, and he no longer panicked. He used his two knives to cut off the rope behind the scratching hook.
Lu Junyi saw Shi Wengong rushing towards him and immediately rode forward to greet him.
Lu Fang and Guo Sheng also took the opportunity to attack Zeng Sheng.
Shi Wengong thought he could force Lu Junyi away with one move, but unexpectedly, he was stopped by Lu Junyi.
During this delay, Lu Fang and Guo Sheng had captured the injured Zeng Sheng.
Seeing that Lu Junyi was nine feet tall and majestic in appearance, Shi Wengong couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?"
Lu Junyi pointed his spear at himself to identify the military flag, and said: "Don't you recognize the military flag by looking at me? I am Lu Junyi, the jade unicorn. If you know what you are looking for, you should get off your horse and be bound earlier to avoid being humiliated."
Shi Wengong squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Junyi and said, "Could it be Lu Junyi who fought all over Tokyo in his early years and was known as the unparalleled stick in the world?"
Lu Junyi touched his chinHe had a long beard and said with a smile: "Now that I know the reputation of a certain family, I don't want to get off my horse and be bound."
Shi Wengong also aspired to participate in martial arts examinations in his early years, but after hearing about Lu Junyi, he wanted to bribe Gao Qiu but had no money to give, so he gave up the idea of ??martial arts examinations and wandered around as a teacher to make money. Later, he was sold to Zeng Tou He was hired with a lot of money.
When Shi Wengong learned that the person in front of him was Lu Junyi, who was in trouble in Tokyo back then, he didn't have a trace of fear, but his fighting spirit rose. He shouted: "I have never met an opponent since I started the army. Today I will have a battle to see who is unparalleled in the world."
After saying that, he hit the horse and went straight to Lu Junyi.
Lu Junyi learned from Lin Chong that Shi Wengong's martial arts was slightly better than him, so he did not dare to be careless and used what he had learned in his life to fight with Shi Wengong.
The two fought for more than fifty times before Lu Junyi gained the upper hand.
Lu Junyi has been practicing hard behind closed doors for these years. It is rare for him to meet a well-matched opponent, but he becomes more and more excited as he fights. He attacks Shi Wengong with the spear in his hand like a move. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
