Chapter 69: The Battle of Fuli (Part II)

Fu left the city, and the king of Yue sent a team of more than 100 swordsmen to challenge the Song and Chu coalition forces stationed in the city, but no one dared to come out to fight with more than 100,000 troops of Song and Chu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

All this, of course, is because the most elite pioneers of the Chu State were completely wiped out under the conspiracy of the previous Yue army. Then the Yue State began to hold the camp of the Vietnamese army and fought a positional battle with the Song and Chu coalition forces.

The army of the Yue State did not pay attention to formation like the army of the Central Plains, but after the Yue army and the Chu army fought one after another outside the city, it was the Chu army that suffered a series of defeats.

This is all because there is an elite army of more than 1,000 people in the army of the Yue Kingdom, and this army is composed of the most elite swordsmen in the Yue Kingdom. The land of Wuyue has always been famous for its swords, good swords, and brave swordsmen!

This army of the most elite swordsmen under the command of King Yue fought against the enemy, not talking about any formation at all, but purely charging collectively, with superb martial arts and the spirit of not being afraid of death and injury, they crushed one Chu army after another.

It has been more than ten days since the front of the Chu army was wiped out by the Yue army, and in these more than ten days, whenever the Yue army swordsmen came out to challenge the Chu army, the king of Chu drew an elite army from the Chu army to fight with it, but in the past ten days, every Chu army that fought with the Yue army swordsmen was defeated.

Up to now, no Chu army team dared to face the challenge of this group of Yue swordsmen.

"As a descendant of Zhu Rong, have you lost all your courage?" In the camp of the Chu army, the king of Chu was furious at the generals and feudal lords of the Chu State.

Under the court, Zhao Slip, who was covered with injuries, heard the words of the King of Chu, and his face was full of shame. He knew that if he hadn't wiped out the most elite army of Chu at one time, Chu would never have fallen into such a situation. When he returned to the Chu army camp, he didn't think about his life. After bringing the remaining 500 Qianmao of the Chu army back to the camp, he was ready to commit suicide to apologize.

However, the king of Chu saw that the most outstanding general of the younger generation of Chu was covered with scars at this time, and he couldn't bear it, and directly issued an edict to exempt him from the death penalty. It was only by cutting half of his fiefdom that he was able to regain his footing in the court of the Chu State.

When Zhao Hua saw such a scene, he wanted to stand up and speak and was willing to lead the army to fight again with the Yue Kingdom. At this moment, Sima Jingcui, the great of the Chu State, suddenly spoke: "King, the elite of my Chu State army has been lost in the previous battle. After that, the courage and martial arts of our sergeants were inferior to those of the Vietnamese army, and the more we fought, the more heavy the casualties of our army became, and it was no longer suitable for our army to go to war at this time. ”

"And what do you mean?" The King of Chu was furious, "Do you want to let the widow make peace with those barbarians of the Yue Kingdom?" ”

"Your Majesty, your subordinates never meant that. Didn't Song also agree to help our country send troops to deal with Yue? Now our army has lost its elite and its combat strength is weak. At this time, it was time for the Song State to send troops to deal with the Vietnamese army. Jing Cui said leisurely.

When the king of Chu heard this, he was furious! Now the Song State and the Chu State have formed a coalition army, and the Chu State occupies a dominant position in the coalition army by virtue of its superiority in strength. If at this time, the enemy that the Chu State could not deal with would be handed over to the Song State to deal with, and if the Song State won the war, wouldn't it be that the Song army would dominate this coalition army? Even if the army was still dominated by the state of Chu, how much benefit would the state of Chu have to deliver to the state of Song after the war?

The king of Chu immediately wanted to speak out against it, but the ministers of the Chu State under his hall spoke one step ahead of him, and they all agreed with Jing Cui's opinion very much. Jing Cui did say these things in the heart of the feudal monarch of the Chu State.

Most of these generals under the hall were feudal lords along the Huai River in the Chu State, and they all had their own private armies, and even the king of Chu could not completely go against their opinions. King Chu sighed and had no choice but to agree.

In the Song State camp of the Song and Chu coalition forces, Xiang She, Dai Yan and all the generals of the Song State gathered together to discuss the order that the King of Chu had just sent someone to report: send troops to meet the swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom.

"Da Sima, we can't fall for the Chu State." A small nobleman of the Song Kingdom said, "Wu Yue swordsman, unparalleled in the world!" In the past, the king of Yue Goujian swallowed Wu with 3,000 Yuejia, and the people of the northern country have been influenced by etiquette for a long time, so how can they be able to defeat those Wu Yue swordsmen who are martial and good at fighting in the south? ”

After the nobleman's exit, many other Song generals were also born to oppose it. It was really everyone who was afraid of the army of swordsmen who defeated the elite of the Chu army one after another.

"Ziyan, what do you think of King Chu's order?" Xiang She didn't care about the opinions of these Song generals, but just turned his head to ask Dai Yan.

"I think we should play." Dai Yan said firmly.

"From the boy's point of view, this time our Song State and Chu State are dealing with the Yue State together, and the number of troops of our two countries here is far greater than that of the Yue Army, from this point of view, we have an advantage. The Yue army also knew this, so they chose to destroy the most elite Qianmao army of the Chu State first. If the Chu State does not have this kind of elite soldiers as the courage of an army, then the courage of the 100,000 troops of the Chu army will be lost. Through this operation, the Vietnamese army has succeeded in changing the disadvantage of the Vietnamese army's small number of soldiers.

And if we can defeat the Yue army when the Chu army is facing a difficult situation this time, then the Chu State will see the strength of our Song State, and it will inevitably give us more benefits to win over our country.

What is the purpose of our battle here, isn't it to make our Song Kingdom gain more benefits? For the sake of the interests of my Song Kingdom, why should I fight to the death? ”

Hearing that Dai Yan was willing to lead the army to battle, many generals and nobles who admired the reputation of this "virtuous son" persuaded them in unison. For the persuasion of these good words, Dai Yan declined them one by one.

Then Dai Yan called Tian Jiu, Tang Ying, Xiao Xiang and other high-level soldiers who came with the army, this time in the face of the brave Vietnamese army, everyone also showed their talents, so they quickly discussed a plan.

Under the attention of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Chu and Song states, Dai Yan walked out of the Fuli fortress with the 3,000 soldiers he brought from Fengyi. Soon, an army of 3,000 formed a formation in front of the Vietnamese swordsmen.

Regarding the challenge of the swordsmen of the Vietnamese army, Dai Yan only sent a messenger to report back to the Yue people: "Everyone in the world says: Wu Yue swordsman, unparalleled in the world!" I don't know if Wu Yue swordsman dares to fight with our army in front of the battle? ”

These swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom were all arrogant people, and although they were very similar in organization to the warriors of the Qi Kingdom, they were completely different from the warriors. They went abroad to fight, not only for money, but also to win fame and repay the king's kindness. The people of Wu Yue are relatively simple, and these swordsmen also have more faith than the technical fighters. Because of this belief, these swordsmen can truly face death without fear!

The weak Song people dared to fight the brave Wu Yue swordsman? These swordsmen all laughed. Soon, one of these swordsmen walked out and swaggered towards Song Jun.

It was not Tang Ying or Dai Yan who singled out the soldiers of the Vietnamese army, but the giant Tian Jiu, who was over half a hundred years old!

When the Vietnamese swordsmen saw an old man with a gray beard come out to challenge them, their laughter became more and more unscrupulous. The swordsman who came out didn't even draw his sword, so he said to Tian Jiu: "Old man, you are so old, let's honestly go and hug your grandson at home!" I don't want to accept the reputation of bullying the elderly! ”

Tian Jiu didn't care about the swordsman's words at all, he just walked slowly in front of the swordsman god, when the two were ten steps apart. Tian Jiu quickly pulled out the sword hanging from his waist, and rushed straight towards the Yue swordsman like thunder!

Bite! Tian Jiu drew his sword extremely quickly, and the speed at which he drew his sword was even faster, but the Yue Guo swordsman finally reacted at the last moment and drew his sword to block Tian Jiu's blow.

But the next moment, before the swordsman could react more, his head had already separated from his body!

Ten steps to kill one!

The swordsman didn't know what happened when he was dying, but the soldiers of Song and Yue who were watching the battle on both sides could see it clearly: after Tian Jiu's sword was blocked by the other party, he just twisted it, and the sword continued to move forward with his body, and when the two passed by, the sword directly scraped the swordsman's neck! With this astonishing speed and powerful force, this sword directly brought the opponent's head down!

The audience was amazed!

Immediately, some of the swordsmen of the Vietnamese army became indignant, and soon a swordsman rushed towards Tian Jiu. Tian Gu was not afraid of the swordsman who rushed over, and fought with the opponent continuously. After more than ten moves, this swordsman was killed by Tian Jiu's sword again!

Now the swordsmen of the Vietnamese army are all shocked and angry! Soon, the leader of this group of Vietnamese swordsmen, a famous swordsman in the south, appeared in person to challenge Tian Jiu.

This leader of the swordsmen of the Vietnamese army is not a wasted person, he is extremely extraordinary as soon as he makes a move, forcing Tian Jiu to retreat step by step! However, Tian Jiu, as a giant of the Mo family, has been immersed in martial arts for decades, and his swordsmanship has also reached an incredible level! It's just that he has always lived in seclusion in the mountains before, and no one in the world knows how powerful he is, but in today's battle, his strength is completely revealed! Although he kept retreating in the face of the Yue swordsman, the sword in the hand of the Yue swordsman couldn't even touch his clothes!

When the swordsmen of the Yue Kingdom saw that Song Guo, an old man who was over half a hundred years old, was able to fight a draw with their leader, everyone admired him! So they all threw their full energy into this wonderful battle. In this case, the Vietnamese soldiers did not even notice the beginning of the movement of the Song army on the opposite side.

Bang!

When only the sound of brass swords clashing could be heard on the entire battlefield, there was a sudden sound of a special bowstring flicking. The giant Tian Gu was no stranger to this voice, and after hearing this voice, he immediately lowered his head and rolled back, instantly opening up the distance between the Yue swordsmen who were fighting with him.

After completing the whole action, he then saw that the swordsman of the Yue Kingdom with such superb martial arts had a thick feather arrow inserted in his chest!

This kind of arrow is very different from the bamboo arrows commonly seen at this time, its arrow is a specially made Mitsubishi arrow, and its body is thicker than ordinary bamboo arrows! And the person who shot this arrow was naturally Xiao Xiang, the archer under Dai Yan, and the bow he held in his hand was not an ordinary bow, but a composite bow that was finally specially made by the Mo family after studying mechanics and testing with a variety of materials!

A bow is a good bow, an arrow is a good arrow, and the person who shoots an arrow is not an ordinary person! The combination of these factors created a miracle of this era - killing the enemy general with an arrow from 300 paces away!

Tian Jiu did not have the slightest sympathy for the Vietnamese soldier, directly cut off his head, and then quickly ran back to the Song army's array.

This change of events came very quickly! Later, when the swordsmen of the Yue army reacted, Tian Jiu was not far from the Song army's array!

Anger, the anger of renunciation! This is the only thought left in the minds of these Vietnamese swordsmen!

In their opinion, it was a fair and righteous thing for two swordsmen with superb martial arts to fight each other, how could they deceive? However, they forget that this is a battlefield, and that they are engaged in a war, not a private duel!

Soldiers, treacherous!
