The sunset of Shen dyed the earth blood red at the end of the desert, Li Ang gasped, just now he had a final battle with Ran Min, he lost, although Ran Min's Zhulongma was a factor in his loss, but he had to admit that Ran Min, who was serious, was the strongest person he had ever seen, and his two-handed blade technique on the horse was an out-and-out killing martial art.

Walking to Li Ang's side, Ran Min patted him on the shoulder, "When, go find a good horse, for us, a good horse is the second weapon, a good horse can make you three percent stronger in riding battles, your spear skills are very strong, when you are fully trained, you may be able to defeat me, I am looking forward to that day!" ”

Listening to Ran Min's words, Li Ang smiled, he practiced the internal spear skills, not many people practiced, not even a school, many things have to rely on him to comprehend, and the martial arts of cold weapons in this era have developed amazingly, many later generations of power skills, the army has already studied them, and the skills of the inner family are even more clever.

His spear skills, only by continuous actual combat sharpening, will he have an epiphany one day in the future and create a complete school, but at that time, the two-handed joint blade technique of the big man in front of him, who should be called the King of Martial Mourning, will probably become stronger! Looking at Ran Min, Li Ang couldn't help but think.

"To be honest, your martial arts are not complete!" Ran Min suddenly said, "Whether it's spearmanship or swordsmanship, it's a little crippled, but you can actually practice to this point, which really makes me a little envious." ”

"Isn't my swordsmanship complete either?" Li Ang looked at Ran Min with some confusion, his murderous sword was personally taught to him by the Great Sacrificial Wine of the Moshe Land. If you don't hide your secrets, how can you be mutilated.

"Murderous sword. That's what you call that set of swordsmanship, right? Ran Min grinned and smiled, then he pulled out his long knife for foot combat and threw it to Li Ang, "Actually, the foot combat sword skills I practiced, and your swordsmanship are all derived from a set of axe techniques. ”

"The Great Thunder God Sword Technique and the Great Thunder God Sword Technique are the true names of you and me Sword Technique." Ran Min looked at Li Ang, who was holding the knife. Speaking up, "One hundred and fifty years ago, Cao Tuo, the first fierce general of the Great Qin Land, used a two-handed axe, even if it was as strong as Zhenbei General Lu Bu and others, he could not take his axe attack head-on, it can be said that his axe skills have reached the peak of destructive power, and the only thing that can barely be compared with it in foot combat is the two-handed halberd technique of Dian Wei, the general of the Praetorian Guard. ”

After the death of General Cao Tuo, although his axe skills were handed down, no one made him use his axe, so his descendants reduced the weight of the axe by fifty percent. However, the power of the earth axe technique used by such an axe has also been greatly reduced, and it is not as invincible as General Cao Tuo used it back then. Ran Min glanced at Li Ang, who was listening carefully. continued, "Emperor Taizong, who couldn't bear the loss of this set of axes, recorded this set of axes into a book and put them in the Taixue Library, hoping that future generations could learn them, but I didn't expect that the samurai great sacrificial wine and the Moshe great sacrificial wine at that time were very interested in this set of axes. After they studied the axe technique, they thought that the axe used by General Cao Tuo during his lifetime could basically be concluded that not many people would be able to use it in the future, so they referred to their own experience of martial arts and created a set of swordsmanship, and named it after the Haixi barbarians who called it 'Great Thunder God' during General Cao Tuo's lifetime. ”

"Although the Great Thunder God Sword Technique and the Great Thunder God Sword Technique, the conditions for practice have been relaxed a lot, but it is not a sword technique that can be used all over the world, so it has been kept by Taixue, and it is taught by people with high qualifications selected by the Martial Arts Great Sacrifice Wine and the Moshe Great Sacrifice Wine." Ran Min took the long knife that Li Ang handed back. Gripping the long knife tightly, "My company's Great Thunder God Sword Technique." It was when I was in Taixue, the Qiu Sheng Sect Master passed it on to me, compared with the Great Thunder God Sword Technique, the Great Thunder God Sword Technique was incomplete when it was created, because the heavy sword body lost the original light and sharp edge of the sword, and some were biased towards the knife technique, but the power was not weak, so there was the title of the murderous sword, and the Moshe thought that the incomplete Great Thunder God Sword Technique had the prestige of General Cao Tuo during his lifetime, so he has been using the title of the murder sword. ”

Hearing that his swordsmanship had such a origin, Li Ang picked up his black giant sword, pulled it out, flipped his wrist, the sword wind whistled, unmatched, and felt the experience of using the sword in the recent battle array, he faintly felt that there seemed to be something missing in the killing sword, and put the sword into the sheath, Li Ang looked at Ran Min, and said in a deep voice, "Brother Ran, can you show me the Great Thunder God Sword Technique." ”

"Okay." Ran Min agreed, he told Li Ang about the Great Thunder God Sword Technique, he originally wanted to hand over the sword technique to Li Ang, hoping that he could use this to realize the complete Great Thunder God Sword Technique, after all, a good opponent is difficult to find, he used to fight with people, it was difficult to have a good fight, and Li Ang in front of him was the only one who could let him use all his strength, and he naturally hoped that he would become stronger.

The Great Thunder God Sword Technique used by Ran Min is similar to Li Ang's murderous sword, both of them are fierce ways to open and close, but the attack is more direct, and there are not as many variants as in the murderous sword, but it is just about power, and it is above the murderous sword.

After finishing the Great Thunder God Sword Technique all the way, Ran Min put away his knife and stood up, looking at Li Ang, only to see that his brows were tightly knit and he muttered in his mouth, which was a little similar to when Chen Qingzhi thought about things.

"Brother Ran, can you borrow a knife and use it." Li Ang suddenly walked up to Ran Min and looked at the long knife at his waist. Seeing that Li Ang asked for it, Ran Min didn't talk nonsense, and handed it to him directly.

Taking the knife, Li Ang drew the knife and danced, it was the great thunder god sword technique that Ran Min had just used, in fact, this sword technique was somewhat similar to his swordsmanship, he only read it once, and he already remembered that it was almost the same, and it was no different from when Ran Min used it.

After the knife was used all the way, Li Ang couldn't notice anything unusual, so he could only hand the knife back to Ran Min, thinking that after he went back, he would also hit the long knife, and practice this road knife and the killing sword together every day in the future to see if he could realize some mysteries.

"Brother Ran, these days, we have also had a good time, and it's almost time to do some serious business." Looking at Ran Min, who had put away the long knife, Li Ang thought that he had handed over all the military affairs to Chen Qingzhi and Ma Jun these days, and couldn't help but say.

"That's right, when you become stronger, Brother Li, I'll compete with you again." Ran Min knew that Li Ang was telling him, so he hurriedly replied. These days, he is also a little addicted, just waiting for Leon to enter the country in the future.

"Shall we go back then?" Leon walked over to his warhorse. Looking at the sluggish appearance of the horses, he couldn't help sighing, although his horse is not bad, but compared with Ran Min's fierce Zhulong horse, it is really not good, these days in the riding battle with Ran Min. There have been several times

He was ferocious, kicking and biting his mount, so that he had no two-handed joint blade technique, and he was defeated in a hurry.

It's time to think about a good horse! Looking at the red and domineering Zhulong horse under Ran Min's crotch, Li Ang said secretly, and looked at the mount that didn't dare to get close to the Zhulong horse, and he shook his head.

As soon as he returned to the barracks, a herald found Li Ang and said that Chen Qingzhi had invited him to the Chinese army's tent. There is something important to discuss. Seeing that the atmosphere in the army was a little abnormal, Li Ang frowned. went directly to the Chinese army's big tent with Ran Min.

"General, our coolies who built the road were attacked, and the convoy from Wanzhou was also ambushed, but fortunately, this time the dragoons went to a thousand-man team, otherwise, the supplies are likely to be robbed." Saw Leon come in. Chen Qingzhi's face was solemn and authentic.

"What about the losses?" Hearing this bad news, Li Ang was not too surprised, if Liaoyuan Fire didn't do some sabotage, he would have to suspect that they had some conspiracy.

"Three hundred coolies died, and nearly a hundred of the dragoons and the convoy of escorts were lost." Chen Qingzhi had already ordered someone to set up a sand table, and talked about the terrain, "There are nearly 3,000 horse thieves who have come, and they are ambushed here, if it weren't for the falconry." Finding them in time, our losses will be even greater. ”

"This area. There must be two tribes, right? Looking at what Chen Qingzhi was pointing at, Li Ang's eyes showed a cold glow, "Three thousand horse thieves, it's impossible for them not to know." Li Ang's voice was cold, and the officers present knew that this general, who didn't seem to be murderous, had already moved to kill in his heart, but they didn't object, just like Li Ang said, three thousand horse thieves, such a big move, it is impossible for these two tribes not to know, but they did not send someone to signal to them, so the only possibility is that they colluded with the horse thieves.

"The general is right, and I think so too." Chen Qingzhi nodded, and then pointed with a whip, "So for the sake of Great Qin's majesty, we must teach these barbarians a lesson and let them know the fate of being enemies of Great Qin." ”

"Exterminate the clan, such a rebellion, it is also a scourge to stay." Li Ang opened his mouth and pronounced that the fate of these two tribes would be completely destroyed, "What are you going to do with Ziyun Chen Qing's words?" ”

"Ziyun thinks that we must first send soldiers and horses to control the escape path of these two tribes, and then spread the word to the desert, slaughter these two tribes in a dignified manner, and let all the other tribes know the fate of colluding with horse thieves and becoming enemies of Great Qin." Chen Qingzhi also plans to use thunderous means to deal with this matter, for them, if the logistics are harassed, it is a considerable trouble, and everyone here has their own dignity, if it is just for such a small matter to ask for reinforcements from the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, none of them can accept it, and he Chen Qingzhi is the same.

"Kill chickens and make an example of monkeys!" Li Ang muttered to himself, he couldn't help but glance at the seemingly gentle Chen Qingzhigao, without the slightest pity, this person was the same as him on the battlefield, his blood was cold, "Then do it according to Ziyun's wishes, but you have to bring the tribal alliance and leave the matter of killing the prisoners to them, so that it will not be too difficult for our soldiers to do." ”

"The general is thoughtful, I wrote it down." Chen Qingzhi nodded, the slaughter of the old and weak women and children, it would be best if someone did it for them, for the Daqin Legion with strict military discipline, there had always been a prisoner army in the past, and those slaughter teams composed of felons were dedicated to these things, for an army, the slaughter of the old and weak women and children was not a glorious thing, and it was easy to cast a shadow on the hearts of the soldiers. Although this practice is suspected of self-deception, after all, the soldiers did not personally slaughter those old and weak women and children, and morally speaking, the Great Qin Army is still glorious.

After the battle plan was decided, the two thousand-man teams of the Dragoon Army were ordered to block the routes from which the two tribes could escape, while Ran Min's 3,000-foot army began to prepare for battle as the main force. After assigning various tasks, all the officers withdrew, and only Li Ang and Chen Qingzhi were left in the silent military tent.

Li Ang had always thought that Chen Qingzhi in front of him was a wise man, and he was more like a staff officer than a general, but the cold-bloodedness that Chen Qingzhi showed just now made him see another side of him, not the usual gentle-looking young man, but a complete soldier, "I originally thought that you would not approve of extermination?" ”

Hearing Li Ang's words, Chen Qingzhi couldn't help laughing, "I don't like slaughter, but for Daqin, slaughtering the redundant desert tribes is a necessary thing, and for me, as a soldier, it is only execution, and it has nothing to do with personal wishes." ”

"I heard that Ziyun's father is a devout Confucian believer, and the elders in the family should also be forgiving." For Chen Qingzhi's answer, Li Ang became a little interested, and it was hard for him to imagine how Chen Qingzhi, who was born in a scholarly family and had never really been on the battlefield before, could have such an idea.

"Actually, I'm a Confucian myself." Chen Qingzhi smiled, and then replied quietly, "It's just that it's not blind, for the country, Confucianism is not a good knowledge of governing the country, although there are many Confucian believers among the ministers after Emperor Wu of the old Han Dynasty, but the means they use to govern the country are Legalist learning, and the ability of officials has nothing to do with the doctrine he believes." ”

"For the people, Confucianism has its positive side, but for the country, it is a bit broad and out of place." Chen Qingzhi said eloquently, "For example, the chaos in the last years of the old Han Dynasty was caused by the exhaustion of national strength in the previous crusade against the Qiang people, and the civil officials who believed in Confucianism resisted the military attaché's extermination policy, which led to the rebellion of the Qiang people and the surrender of the Qiang people, and it took 50 years just to exchange for a few years of peacetime. ”

"So you agree with the policy of extermination." Looking at Chen Qingzhi, who reasoned and expressed his opinions, Li Ang suddenly felt that the gentle appearance of the young man in white in front of him was just a disguise, in fact, he may be more murderous than Ran Min, but he was just covered up by the calm lock.

"It's not that I agree, I said it has nothing to do with personal wishes." Chen Qingzhi replied quietly, "I just stand in the position of a soldier and look at these things from the perspective of the country, just like you, a general." ”

Hearing Chen Qingzhi say this, Li Ang laughed, the young man in front of him who liked to wear white clothes was the same kind of person as him.
