Chapter 733: King Chuang vs. King Chuang
A duel like an ancient knight is a decision between two men. Although, this decision is on this battlefield with thousands of troops, and the duel invited by the commanders of the two armies seems to be a kind of child's play. But in fact, it is the best choice to take what you need.
Li Zicheng has reached a dead end. His troops have fled, his beloved generals have died and fled, and the thousand personal soldiers behind him, in their eyes, can no longer see the hope of victory in the resistance, there is only a kind of despair, deep despair, and now they do not surrender and collapse, but only make the final blow out of loyalty to Li Zicheng.
Even if Lu Shi let Li Zicheng go at this time, with these subordinates who were already dead and had no fighting spirit, it would be difficult to turn over, let alone achieve a great cause.
And look at Lu Shi's side, although he was also exhausted from fighting, although he also killed and injured more than 3,000 Li Zicheng, but whether it was in terms of numbers, combat strength, or persistent desire for victory, he would not give Li Zicheng the slightest chance to escape.
Li Zicheng chose to duel, that is, to hold on to the last hope and make the final blow, because, in his opinion, Lu Shiwen is weak and weak, and he is simply a white-faced scholar, and the legend says that Lu Shi's entry into the eight is out of the enemy formation, Li Zicheng believes that it is absolutely nonsense, it is all something that fools wear and chisel and attach, and it is not credible at all.
And he was born in the military, experienced in a hundred battles, and must personally charge in every battle, he really crawled out of the pile of thousands of dead people, and the martial artist has absolute certainty that he will win, and now he should consider whether to kill this thief who ruined everything for himself, or capture him alive?
Of course, killing is a quick success, but it is not in line with his current situation, if he is captured alive, he can blackmail the thief's subordinates, and let himself have a way to live, as long as he can escape, he will have a chance to turn the tables again, but he is trying to catch Lu Shi and relieve his hatred, which is better than Dengtian.
The brothers beside Lu Shi, although after a morning of tragic fighting, all exhausted and sleepy, they also understood the strength and ferocity of Li Zicheng's men, and they were a little timid about the battle just now, and because they knew that their King Chuang and that Li Zicheng had made an appointment to fight alone, they immediately blew up the pot, and they couldn't let King Chuang personally take risks no matter what.
The current King Lu Shichuang is no longer a person, but the hope of millions of people in Shaanxi, and he cannot miss the slightest.
"King Chuang, you don't have any faith with that old thief, our brothers can kill them all if they work harder, you must not do this." Several captains crowded around Lu Shi, pulling Lu Shi's arm, pulling Lu Shi's shirt, and jumping to their feet in a hurry.
While arranging his long shirt, Lu Shi habitually took out the sweat towel that Chunlan gave him in his close arms, carefully tied the hilt of the sword to the palm of his hand, and then carefully made a butterfly buckle, and then began to move his limbs.
"Brothers, Li Zicheng is not terrible, he has killed countless people, and I have also fought in battle, speaking of which, they are all between the two, in fact, I have more advantages." Lu Shi smiled faintly, comforting the anxious brothers beside him.
"It's not that you don't know, I have nothing to do, and I have tried with the Generalissimo of the Celestial Star many times, and in terms of strength, I have never lost to him, hahaha." Thinking about the usual times, Guo Tianxing's painstaking sparring is really moving, and now, it is really used.
Da Lang kept making anxious noises beside him, "Uncle, don't go, you can't do that guy, we have to do this." ”
Lu Shi smiled and glanced at Da Lang and said, "Don't raise the morale of others and destroy your own prestige, why can't I kill him?" I'm what you said, seven in and seven out of a million troops, no, it's a man of God who goes in and out eight. ”
Da Lang had a horizontal neck at that time, and he was choked by Lu Shi and rolled his eyes, in fact, Da Lang was behind it, and now it has become an excuse for Lu Shi.
It took a long time to whisper: "Isn't that to erect your tall image, you still take you seriously." ”
"Hahaha." Lu Shi laughed heartily, this burst of laughter also relieved his little nervousness, and at the same time, this laughter made the nervous brothers around him relax a lot.
I haven't been in battle for a long time, and I sit in front of the table all day, in the company of mountains of cases, and the whole person feels numb. At this time, Li Zicheng, who was suddenly squeezed by his own words, naively proposed to fight with himself, which was really a little nervous, but isn't this exactly what he wants most?
The damage was already very heavy, and three thousand Li Zicheng's men and horses let his cavalry brothers suffer nearly four thousand casualties, which was the first time such a loss since he founded the army, except for the breakthrough of Yanchuan, which was especially for his own cavalry. Li Zicheng is worthy of being a hero in the late Ming Dynasty, with only 3,000 men and horses, and after the blow of rebellion, he is still high-spirited.
Only these three thousand men, under the absolute disadvantage, have already caused Lu Shi's men and horses to lose the same number, and they have already fought with Lu Shi to the top of the sun.
And now, around Li Zicheng is his most loyal martial arts, and if a fight breaks out again, it will be an endless result, and its tragedy can be known without looking at it.
I can no longer watch my brothers die in this senseless battle.
Lu Shi didn't think about letting Tian Jianxiu come forward to recruit them for him, but when he looked back, he saw Tian Jianxiu bowing his head with shame on his face, not daring to look at the former robe, thinking about his mood, Lu Shi could only shake his head lightly and give up this idea.
Also, Li Zicheng gave himself a rogue style early in the morning, and he was at a loss at that time, but fortunately, Chunlan girl came up with a propaganda method and solved it by chance, but it was indeed a fluke, because, almost all of those people were habitually coerced by Li Zicheng, they were originally dissatisfied with the pole, they needed a stable life, and they needed to feel everything the government gave.
However, now Li Zicheng has once again taken out this magic weapon that gives him a headache, this time it is absolutely different from the last time, the reason is that this time it is no longer the people who are being coerced to be the meat shield of Li Zicheng, they simply ignore Lu Shi's promises and preaching, they are Li Zicheng's most loyal followers, and they are willing to sacrifice themselves for Li Zicheng, therefore, this is the most terrible and the person who cannot be solved by indoctrination and propaganda.
Now that it's okay, his words made Li Zicheng decide to go head-to-head with him, which almost solved all the problems.
In fact, if Guo Tianxing was present, the result would be to use violence against Lu Shi, and the others could only move their mouths, but they didn't dare to compare with Guo Tianxing, their brothers, they really treated each other with all sincerity, regardless of each other.
This kind of friendship cannot be replaced by others, and it cannot be done, which not only makes the people in the whole base feel proud, but also makes those hostile people very envious at the same time as they hate it.
As for whether he can win in heads-up, Lu Shi still has some confidence, since the crossing, his strength has become greater and greater, and Guo Tianxing often pulls Lu Shi to practice on horseback, and takes the trouble to persuade him to work harder, after all, in this chaotic world, a good kung fu is the capital to save his life, and now everything is fine, who can guarantee that there will be no changes in the future? After all, the base area is still small, the strength is still weak, and all variables are possible.
Although I have only been in battle twice, I am still somewhat sure of my ability.
Chunlan is not as worried as others, of course, he also knows that although his husband, the fourth brother, seems to be very easy-going, but in his bones he is stubborn and ruthless, and he will resolutely do what he decides, and will not be swayed by any resistance, especially matters related to the interests and lives of his brothers, fathers, and elders.
Therefore, Chunlan just carefully sorted out the clothes and equipment for Lu Shi, and whispered advice, but did not dissuade her.
Speaking of heads-up, Lu Shi couldn't help but think of Tianxing, that guy was born a ranger, the good thing is this one, if he was there, he would shout excitedly, what else do you need to prepare for, he had already howled and rushed up, killing a dim place.
However, will there really be a good result if you go into battle with the stars? Lu Shi smiled bitterly and shook his head, he could only make things worse.
Regarding the result of facing Li Zicheng, Lu Shi, like Li Zicheng, is also in a dilemma.
Looking at Li Zicheng's deeds in the past history books, Lu Shi should have chosen to capture Li Zicheng, the great hero of the late Ming Dynasty.
However, since I grew up, I have read a lot of wild history and political history, especially after seeing Li Zicheng's defeat in Beijing and exposing his character shortcomings, he captured him alive, and there will be endless troubles.
Killing Li Zicheng on the spot is Lu Shi's best choice now. However, looking at the more than 1,000 fierce and fearless death-defying subordinates behind Li Zicheng, Lu Shi was even more embarrassed, he originally agreed to fight with Li Zicheng, just to think of not killing people, whether it is the women and children behind Li Zicheng, or the brothers behind him, but once he kills Li Zicheng, then the thousand people will definitely not live alone, and they will die frequently, and more tragic battles will be inevitable.
The two faced each other, but they didn't speak, and for a long time, Li Zicheng suddenly mentioned: "Since you and I are dueling, then no matter whether you win or lose, you should have a little color." ”
This remark was in Lu Shi's mind, and he couldn't help nodding in agreement: "And please tell King Da Chuang about it." ”
Li Zicheng laughed and said heroically: "If I lose, please let Mr. Lu go and let the brother behind me go." After a moment of contemplation, "I promise that my brothers and sisters will never do anything to my husband's brother again." ”
Lu Shi let out a long breath, the hero is still the hero, and the hero has the true character of the hero, this is it.
"If I lose." Lu Shimian said: "I will make way for the Great Chuang King, and promise not to launch any active attack on the Great Chuang King for five years." Lu Shi deliberately put the word "active" in a heavy way, which means that I don't take the initiative to find you, but it doesn't prevent you from making trouble with me, and I will give you a devastating blow again.
Of course, Li Zicheng heard Lu Shi's voice, and nodded solemnly at that time.
"Okay. We are now fighting to the death. The two said together.
