Yang Qi's words persuaded the soldiers of the forbidden army.

In the evening of the same day, Yang Qi took Cao Bin to the barracks of the forbidden army and completed the handover.

That night, a 50-strong scarecrow brigade appeared in the area where the military generals of the Great Song Dynasty Wenchen lived, and then they quietly entered the residences of some people according to the list they had obtained in advance.

Since then, these people have disappeared from this world forever.

Early the next morning.

Zhao Pu, Cao Bin, Zhao Defang and others were ready to go, and in the middle of them, there was a gold-lacquered coffin, tightly wrapped in silk cloth, and 100,000 soldiers of the forbidden army were guarding them.

Yang Qi sent them all the way out of Tongtai Pass.

At the time of parting, Zhao Pu talked to Yang Qi with a heavy heart, and after the two chatted, Zhao Pu seemed to have received some promise from Yang Qi, and he was carried by someone in high spirits, and he took a step forward leisurely.

Cao Bin told Yang Qi a few words and left.

Zhao Defang mysteriously gave Yang Qi a package and told Yang Qi to wait for him to leave before opening it.

After watching them leave, Yang Qi quietly opened the corner of the package, and after seeing the contents of the package, he smiled.

Cautiously put away the package, Yang Qixiao asked Peng Pai beside him, "Have all the people been arranged?" ”

Peng Pai nodded and said, "According to your orders, young master, the scarecrow belongs to the scarecrow and the volcano guard belong, and two hundred people each have been arranged among the soldiers of the forbidden army. ”

Yang Qi nodded with satisfaction, "That's good." ”

Turning the horse's head, Yang Qi subconsciously straightened his waist, and said proudly: "Years of planning, just for today." Now that the shackles have been removed, it's time to show your strength. ”

"Pass the order, beat the drums, "General Order"!"

"No!"

……

"Knock knock ......"

When the copper platform was closed, thousands of drums were lined up, and the wrestlers rolled up their sleeves, and their muscular arms tightly held the drumsticks and beat on the drum surface.

The sound of drums resounded inside and outside Tongtai Pass in an instant.

"The Great War Will ......"

Yelu Hugo, who was outside the city, muttered solemnly after hearing the earth-shattering drum.

Seki Castle Interior.

Yang Qi appeared on the city again.

The soldiers and horses in the city gathered together with high morale with the drumbeat of the "General's Order".

When the last drum beat dies down.

More than 400,000 soldiers and horses were neatly in the city, waiting for battle.

Yang Qi didn't have any extra words, he raised his wrist high and shouted, "Set off according to the order!" ”

"Knock ......"

The drums beat again.

Yang Er led the 200,000 soldiers under his command, and after saluting Yang Qi, the group walked out of Tongtai Pass and went up along the northeast.

After all the soldiers and horses under Yang Er's command came out of Tongtai Pass.

The soldiers and horses under Yang Liu's command saluted Yang Qi in unison, and they also went out of Tongtai Pass, all the way up the northwest.

After the army, a cloud of smoke and dust rose outside the city, obscuring the sky.

After Yang Er and Yang Liu each led people away, there were left in Tongtai Pass, the heavy cavalry dragon guerrilla, the iron cavalry army, the foot Yanmen army, the archer Shenji battalion, and the most mysterious earth-shaking camp.

Yang Qi looked at them and said loudly: "Brothers, there are hundreds of thousands of Liao troops outside the city, several times more than us. Do you dare to fight head-on? ”

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

"Fight!"

“……”

The soldiers of the three armies and two battalions beat their blades to their chests and roared vigorously.

The Dragon Rangers are never afraid of war.

Iron cavalry, not afraid of any strong enemy.

The Yanmen Army, wanting to regain its former glory, is ashamed.

The Shenji battalion is dominated by the bow.

Shake the heavens, want to be a blockbuster.

They are confident, proud, and confident that they will win even in the face of a strong enemy.

Yang Qi said proudly: "Okay! Then fight head-on with the Liao. ”

"Open the gates!"

Yang Qi got off the city wall, stepped on horseback, and took the lead out of Tongtai Pass.

Behind him, followed by Yang Wu, Yang San, Huang Quan, Peng Pai and other generals.

Behind the generals is a mighty army.

Yang Qi's men and horses arrived outside the city, lined up, and set up a battle.

When the Liao State was greater than Yue Yelu Hugo heard the drums, he had already expected that Yang Qi was going to start the battle, so when Yang Qi's soldiers and horses arrived outside the city, the Liao army also set up a battle and waited for it.

Under Yang Qi's command, whether it is the Dragon Patrol Army, the Iron Cavalry Army, the Shenji Battalion, or the Earthquake Heaven Battalion, they are not suitable for defending the city.

They were prepared for the offensive from the day they were born.

Yang Qi sent a large number of strong foot soldiers to Tongtai Pass, which was equivalent to giving up defensive tactics, he could only attack now, and he had to attack.

At the same time, Yang Qi also needs to have a tough fight with Yelu Hugo head-on to prove that he has the qualifications to compete for the sixteen states of Yanyun.

And Jeruxiugo also chose to be tough and tough, he didn't need to retreat and hold on.

Several times the enemy's strength, if he still retreats, he will be looked down upon.

Moreover, he also needed to weigh Yang Qi's catties.

"Let's ...... it"

A red horse carrying a small white flag rushed out of the Liao army's military formation.

Huang Quan, the master of the Shenji Battalion, immediately bent his bow and was about to shoot an arrow, but was stopped by Yang Qi.

"It's the Messenger......"

Yang Qi reminded Huang Quan.

The soldiers and horses of the southern kingdom are accustomed to being domineering in the southern territory, and most of the enemies they face are slang and wingmen who are unwilling to belong in the mountains and forests.

The means used by the enemy and us to transmit messages to each other in the military formation are basically the means of negotiation between some major powers where friction often occurs.

Huang Quan and others have not experienced it, so they naturally don't understand this.

The Liao messenger rushed to the front of the battle and handed over a letter.

Peng Paice immediately stepped forward and took the letter.

Yang Qi took the letter from Peng Pai's hand, and after reading it carefully, he asked the Liao soldier who was sending the message in front of him in a stunned manner, "Brother Yelu Hugh wants to fight?" ”

Liao Bing said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "My family is greater than Yue Youyan, fighting generals are ancient rites of the Han nationality, and he is willing to fight with the Tiger Marquis, so as to inspire the army." If the tiger marquis doesn't dare, he can refuse. ”

Yang Qi smiled dumbly.

Yelu Hugo marched him in front of the battle, and forced him to fight with the small carving technique of agitation.

However, I have to admit that Yelu Hugo's plan succeeded.

In front of the two armies, Yelu Hugo proposed to fight the generals, and if Yang Qi did not agree, it would inevitably hit morale.

Brother Yelu Xiu This is an upright conspiracy, and Yang Qi has to take it.

Fighting generals are not considered ancient rites of the Han people.

It's just that in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the princes fought with each other, and although they were opponents with each other, they often had a friendship with the alliance.

It gradually evolved into a pre-war performance of morale boosting.

The Three Kingdoms period reached its heyday.

In the Song Dynasty, the custom of fighting generals was replaced by clever tricks and the advantages of soldiers.

The gradual decline of military generals, especially the fierce generals, also has a certain relationship.

Since then, the fighting has also evolved into a kind of performance competition.

However, Yelu Hugo's proposal to fight before the battle this time can be regarded as restoring the original purpose of the fighter.

With the success or failure of the generals, mobilize the change of morale.

Brother Yelu Xiu's purpose, Yang Qi can guess some of it.

"Suppressing people with power, ...... interesting"

Yang Qi smiled slightly, muttered to himself, and then said to the Liao soldiers in front of him: "Go and tell Brother Yelu Xiu, just say that I agreed." ”

"Farewell!"

The Liao soldiers did not hesitate, and after giving up, they rode their horses back to the front of the Liao army.

Peng Pai asked curiously beside Yang Qi in a low voice, "Young Master, what did you mean by suppressing people with power just now?" ”

The people around Yang Qi were also angry, and they all pricked up their ears to listen.

Yang Qi smiled faintly: "Brother Yelu Xiu deceived me to establish the soldiers and horses for a short time, lack of elite soldiers and strong generals, far less profound than the Liao State, and countless elite soldiers and strong generals.

That's why he proposed to fight generals, in order to wear out the few good generals in our army and provide more opportunities for the Liao army to defeat us. And it can also use it to break our morale.

It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone......"

Peng Pai gasped and said in a deep voice: "Brother Yelu Xiu is really scheming, and it is not easy to deal with ......."

"What are you afraid of him doing?"

Jiao Zan, who was at the end of the general's team, shouted: "If there is really a Liao general who dares to come out, I Jiao Zan is willing to take the lead, and I can kill him in one round." ”

Although Jiao Zan's goods are sturdy, they are a lucky general.

He was stunned in the three states of Huan, Yun, and Ying, and with his own mouth, he won many cities without blood.

As a result, he was promoted.

Although he is still in his position and holds the reserve of the Iron Cavalry, in addition to the title of general of the reserve of the Iron Cavalry, he also has the title of garrison of Yanmen Mansion.

According to the grade, it has reached the fifth grade.

Far higher than his three brothers.

However, since Jiao Zan's status has improved, Yang Wu still doesn't like him.

After hearing Jiao Zan's babbling voice, Yang Wu said disgustedly: "You take the lead? I think you will give away people's heads when you go up, and you will only be embarrassed. ”

Jiao Zan was not convinced, so he wanted to pout, but was pulled by Meng Liang.

After reprimanding Jiao Zan, Yang Wu said proudly: "I'll take the lead!" I can't take the head of the Liao general, so I am willing to abdicate and make way for Xian. ”

When Yang Wu said this, he was full of arrogance and confidence.

He has this confidence, because from the time he stepped on the battlefield to the present, the total number of Liao generals he has killed is more than forty people.

Among them, the most Liao generals were killed in the previous battle of Tongtaiguan.

It can be said that Tongtaiguan is the famous place of Yang Wu.

Yang Wu didn't mind making his reputation a little louder.

There were already two people who asked for war, and the others naturally didn't dare to show weakness and asked for war one after another.

Yang Qi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, let's see who the Liao people send out first." ”

The information of the famous generals of the Liao State, Yang Qi has collected very completely, although he has not seen them, but through their past deeds on the battlefield, Yang Qi can more or less judge their combat effectiveness.

"Dada~"

A light sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a Liao general wearing a felt hat slowly appeared in front of the two armies bare-chested and holding a big knife.

Yang Qi was slightly stunned when he saw this person.

"Angie ......"

Peng Pai was also a little stunned when he looked at this person.

Yang Wu asked curiously, "Does the seventh brother know this person?" ”

Yang Qi nodded slowly, "This person's name is Anji, a person from the Xi Wangfu of the Liao State, who once accompanied the Liao State's privy envoy Yelu to conquer the Jurchens, and his combat power is good, but he is very low-key, so his reputation is not obvious." ”

The eight Khitan tribes, except for the Yelu clan and the Xiao clan, the remaining six tribes all have a royal palace, and the patriarch of each department will inherit the throne and palace due to each department when he succeeds to the throne.

Xi Wangfu, belonging to the Khitan Eight Divisions of Kumo Xi Division.

Its strength is second only to the Yelu clan and the Xiao clan, and it is the third largest of the eight Khitan divisions.

The Kumoxi tribesmen were good at fighting and basically participated in every major war in the Liao State.

It's just that every time they fight, they hold positions such as supervising the army, and rarely serve as generals or commanders, so their reputation is not obvious.

And Anji is the best of the Kumoxi tribesmen.

Of course, no matter how strong he was among the Kumoxi tribesmen, he could only get a good comment in Yang Qi's mouth.

"Humble and ask for war!"

Just when everyone looked at Anji and digested the information Yang Qi said.

Suddenly, a voice interrupted everyone's musings.

Everyone looked curiously at the place where the voice came from.

Because that place is not a place where generals stay.

Seeing the person who asked for battle, Yang Qi was slightly stunned, "Yang Xing? ”

The one who took the initiative to ask for the battle was Yang Xing, the former king of Basho Mountain.

When he was on Basho Mountain, although Yang Xing ranked fourth, his martial arts were not lost to Jiao Zan.

Now Jiao Zan is still coming out, and among the four brothers, he is still rolling at the bottom.

Although the other three brothers often comforted him when the brothers got together, he was also a strong man and did not want to be looked down upon.

He also wants to stand out, to be able to sit with his brothers at the level of them, rather than always feeling like he is ahead of them.

Facing the different expressions of the people looking at him, Yang Xing pretended not to know, he looked at Yang Qi, and said solemnly: "Humble and ask for battle!" ”

Yang Qi's eyes swept over Yue Sheng, Meng Liang, and Jiao Zan, and seeing that none of them stopped Yang Xing, Yang Qi knew that they had learned about Yang Xing's desire to get ahead, so they didn't want to stop him.

Otherwise, it is possible that the brothers will not be able to do it, and they will have to turn against each other.

Of course, at the moment of the great enemy, Yang Qi only thought about it a little, and did not put too much thought on it.

Yang Qi looked at Yang Xing and said solemnly: "Anji is a fierce general of Kumo Xi's department, although his reputation is not obvious, but his strength is not bad, you may not be his opponent, you may have to be buried under his knife, are you sure you really want to go?" ”

Yang Xing clenched his fists with a firm gaze and said, "Humble duty, please fight!" ”

Hearing that Anji had already begun to call for battle, and Yang Xing's attitude of asking for battle was very resolute, Yang Qi did not hesitate, "Okay, this battle will be fought by Yang Xing." ”

Yang Xing is good at using long knives, and he is very comfortable with the horizontal knives that are standard with the Iron Cavalry.

Yang Xing drew his horizontal knife, rode out of the horse, and rushed towards Anji.

In a few moments, the two horsemen faced each other in front of the two armies.

An Ji stroked his beard, squinted at Yang Xing, and said coldly: "Who is coming, this general will not behead the nameless person under the knife!" ”

Yang Xing said coldly: "Northwest Yang Xing! Who are you? I don't accept nameless souls under my sword. ”

"Liao General Anji!"

"Fight!"

"Kill!"

The two sides exchanged their names, and there was no more superfluous nonsense, and they immediately fought together.

Yang Xing's knife skills were sharp, the attack was rapid, and relying on the advantages of the iron armor, he straddled the horse, and the horizontal knife in his hand slashed out repeatedly, almost pressing Anji.

The big knife in Anji's hand was horizontal in front of Yang Xing when Yang Xing's horizontal knife attacked, protecting the dangerous part in front of him.

His eyes narrowed into a slit, staring at Yang Xing, defending every knife that Yang Xing slashed over, and the war horse under his crotch kept wandering, as if looking for Yang Xing's flaws.

Suddenly, Anji's narrowed eyes suddenly opened, flashing a fine light, and the big knife in his hand slashed out horizontally.
