Looking at the battlefield that was about to arrive, Tanma flew to report: "My lord, the Liangshan thieves have rushed over with the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou. ”
Li Cheng frowned and thought darkly, it seems that this Liangshan bandit is quite powerful, and he has just defeated Suo Chaobu, and he has defeated Lingzhou soldiers and horses so quickly.
"Let the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou turn around and kill the thieves, and there is no forgiveness for those who dare to rush forward."
When Tanma heard this, he immediately ran forward and shouted Li Cheng's order to the soldiers and horses of Lingzhou.
The soldiers and horses of Lingzhou saw the reinforcements, and it was a dead end to continue to flee forward, so they could only turn around and fight with the soldiers and horses of Liangshan again.
Hua Rong saw that Li Cheng was decisive in using soldiers, and knew that something was wrong, so he took out his bow and arrow, and when he wanted to shoot Li Cheng, he was blocked by many people in front of him and couldn't see clearly.
Only Li Cheng's military flag fluttered in the air, which was very conspicuous.
At that moment, he opened his bow and looked at the rope on the flag of the army and shot it.
Li Cheng saw an arrow coming, and was just about to dial, but found that the arrow was shooting high, so he didn't pay attention to it, and was riding his horse to charge, but he heard a "ding" sound behind him, and then the soldiers behind him screamed.
When he looked back, the arrow was shot at the flag of his own army, and the rope on the flagpole was broken, and the flag with his name written on it had fallen to the ground, and several footprints were stepped on by the soldiers who could not restrain themselves behind.
Li Cheng naturally knew the role of the general's flag in the war, and he would be a soldier's courage, but in the war, the soldiers could hardly see the general, so they could only follow the general. If there is no flag and a scuffle starts, the soldiers in the distance will not be able to know their life and death. and will not fight to the death with themselves.
"Hurry up and raise the military flag for me."
Li Cheng scolded the flag-holding soldier and asked him to put down the flagpole and hoist the military flag again.
"Whoever kills Li Cheng will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold."
Chao Yong was also overjoyed to see Hua Rong shoot so well, and as soon as he kicked the war horse under his crotch, he rushed towards Li Cheng.
"Kill Li Cheng"
When the Liangshan soldiers heard that Chao Yong had given this heavy reward, their already tired bodies suddenly glowed with new vitality, and they pounced on the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion one by one like wolves.
When Li Cheng heard Chao Yong's shout, his face was also full of shock.
A thousand taels of gold were exchanged for copper coins. It is tens of thousands of runs, and when Chao Gai and others fell into the grass, it was just because they robbed the 100,000 Guan Birthday Gang that Liang Zhongshu gave to Cai Jing.
Unexpectedly, in order to kill himself, he offered a reward of 1,000 taels of gold.
As long as you kill yourself, these bounties are enough to disarm and return to the field, buy hundreds of acres of land in the countryside, marry a few beautiful concubines, and live a peaceful and stable life.
Li Cheng seemed to be able to feel the golden light in the eyes of the soldiers behind him, and he also wanted to shout: "The one who kills the thief will be rewarded with a thousand taels." "Focus all your attention on the thieves. lest someone really stab a knife in the back.
However, the court's bounty is only 5,000 guan, and the other thieves are at most 3,000 guan, and it is impossible for him to make up tens of thousands of guan no matter what.
But Chao Yong didn't have to worry about not being able to cash out the gold and silver, after plundering Gaotang Prefecture and Dongchang Mansion. Liangshan has abundant money and food, and if he defeats more than 10,000 pursuers with 3,000 soldiers and horses, he will be rewarded for his meritorious deeds. It is not too much gold and silver to ask for it.
As soon as Li Cheng's military flag was raised, the Liangshan soldiers and horses had already broken through the remnants of the Lingzhou soldiers and horses and rushed over.
"Fight hard to kill thieves, and reward meritorious deeds after the war."
Li Cheng shouted. Then he patted his horse and led the troops to meet him.
However, compared with the two, his reward for meritorious deeds and Chao Yong's bounty are much different.
As soon as the words fell, Hua Rong shot another arrow, and Li Chengzhi's military flag fell again.
Driven by a thousand taels of gold, the soldiers and horses of Liangshan were like fierce tigers, and the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion saw that their main generals recognized that the military flag was shot down twice in a row, and their morale could not help but plummet.
Although Li Cheng heard the exclamations of the soldiers behind him, he and Chao Yong, who came first, were no longer a few horses, and they couldn't care about recognizing the military flag anymore.
The two looked at each other, and Chao Yong smashed it at Li Cheng with a stick.
Li Cheng saw Chao Yong's fierceness, and hurriedly danced with two knives to parry.
With a loud bang, Li Cheng only felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and the double knives not only did not hold Chao Yong's iron rod, but he was also forced back, and the back of the knife was slashed on his chest. Chao Yong's iron rod also fell on his shoulder, leaving only a mouthful of blood in the air, and the whole person was smashed and fell under the horse.
Seeing this, Li Cheng's own soldiers hurriedly rushed up to intercept Chao Yong.
Chao Yong didn't chase Li Cheng either, swept away a few of his own soldiers, swept off the empty flagpole with a stick, and killed the rear team.
Although Wu Song was fighting on foot, his charging speed was not inferior to Chao Yong, and when he saw Li Cheng fall off his horse, he caught up with the previous knife and chopped off Li Cheng's head.
Wu Song raised Li Cheng's head and shouted, "Li Cheng is dead. ”
When the soldiers and horses of Liangshan heard this, they also shouted: "Li Cheng is dead." ”
When the officers and soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion in the rear team heard the shouting, they looked at Li Cheng's military flag, and not only was the flag gone, but even the bare flagpole was also invisible, and they couldn't help but riot.
Chao Yong swept all the way, invincible, but soon the iron rod in his hand was deformed again, Chao Yong could only grab a spear casually and continue to rush to kill, but the spear configured by the army was even more unbearable for his divine power, and he was broken by him again if he couldn't rush dozens of zhang, and he could only keep grabbing weapons.
Chao Yong also decided to return to the mountain, so he asked Tang Long to build weapons.
After Tang Long went up the mountain, many leaders rebuilt their weapons, and Lin Chong replaced the original steel spear with the Zhangba snake spear made by Tang Long.
He also thought about Chao Yong's weapons for a long time, and consulted many people. Everyone recommended him the Overlord Gun, the Overlord Halberd, the Eight-Edged Purple Gold Hammer, and the Coiling Dragon Stick, but he never thought about it.
He prefers the eight-sided purple gold hammer, which is violent enough, it can be said that he will die when he touches it, and he will die next to it, but the attack range is a little small.
The Overlord Gun, the Overlord Halberd, and the Coiling Dragon Stick have a large attack range, but they are less domineering, so he has not decided what weapons to build.
However, after going through several battle formations, these three things can already be ruled out, his divine power is too amazing, and the long weapon will be deformed under his hard smashing and sweeping.
In addition, looking for another bow and arrow, Fang Cai Chao Yong saw that when Hua Rong was charging, he actually shot a gap with a bow and arrow, and his heart moved, with his skills, he could shoot more arrows. And he can shoot a harder bow, and the effect is definitely more amazing than Hua Rong.
Wu Song and Lu Zhishen followed Chao Yong to expand the gap on the left and right, so that the Liangshan soldiers and horses behind them continued to break into the Daimyo's Mansion with them.
Chao Yong didn't know how long he killed, but he saw more and more officers and soldiers on both wings breaking back, and finally where Chao Yong rushed to, he began to break up.
Soon, there were no more officers and soldiers facing Chao Yong.
Chao Yong looked at all the officers and soldiers who fled in the desert, and also reined in his horse and rested, today's battle was the longest day he had been fighting, and he didn't know how long it had been. But the number of officers and soldiers who died at his hands was only in the hundreds.
Lu Zhishen reined in his horse, gasped a few times, and said: "These forbidden troops are still showy, if it is the Western Army, I am afraid that we will fall into a bitter battle." ”
What Chao Yong couldn't say was that after the disgrace of Jingkang, thousands of soldiers and horses of the Song Dynasty who could be killed by more than a dozen Jin soldiers were defeated, and there were many examples of such battles.
The Northern Song Dynasty has enjoyed peace for too many years, and the soldiers have long lost the courage to shroud themselves in horse leather on the battlefield. Except for the Western Army, which has been fighting against the Western Xia, the national army can be said to be vulnerable, so there are so many grass robbers who occupy the mountains as kings.
The wounded soldiers in this battle have increased a lot, and Chao Yong is saving the wounded. The army in front came back to help.
Li Kui came in a rage and shouted, "Where are the officers and soldiers of the Daimyo's Mansion? Didn't they all run away from you? ”
Lu Zhishen liked Li Kui's straightforward temperament, and said with a smile: "You are late, they are all killed." ”
Li Kui listened. couldn't help frowning and said: "What kind of bullshit forbidden army does King Chao still say, and he can't help but kill it, so he can hold on until I come." It's not too late for me to kill and go. ”
When Chao Yong heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "After a while, you will have to fight." ”
When Li Kui heard this, he said happily: "That's good, I will be a pioneer when the time comes." ”
Chao Yong smiled: "You have to ask my father about this." ”
Chao Gai saw that his son was fine, and he was relieved, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll let you be a pioneer then." ”
Li Kui suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Tianwang is happy, when Tie Niu gets the bounty, please eat and drink." ”
There are also a few restaurants on Liangshan, and the soldiers have five days off every month, and they can buy drunk on the mountain.
Li Kui's salary and bounty are a lot, but except for the old lady and brother, they all invite the mountain leader and his brothers to eat wine.
Chao Gai also knew about Li Kui, and said with a smile: "Then as soon as you receive the bounty, you will come to invite me to eat and drink, so as not to be late and gone." ”
Li Kui scratched his head and said to Xiang Chong and Li Gon on the side: "You help me remember something, if you get the bounty, the first one will invite the king to eat wine." ”
Xiang Chong and Li Gon couldn't help laughing when they saw Li Kui taking Chao Gai's joke seriously: "Okay." ”
Li Kui saw a few wounded soldiers passing over, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said with a smile: "Heavenly King, you see that their children are so injured, shouldn't this task be handed over to me." ”
When Chao Gai heard this, he said with a smile: "I didn't expect Tie Niu to be smart, okay, the three thousand people after the break were changed to the Chinese army for rest, and the three thousand people led by Hu Yanzhuo, Han Tao, Peng Xi, Li Kui, Jiao Ting, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon were cut off." ”
Chao Yong said again: "Previously, in order to boost morale and defeat the soldiers and horses of the Daimyo's Mansion, I offered a reward of 1,000 taels of gold to take Li Cheng's head. In the end, it was the Wu Song brothers who cut Li Cheng's head and asked his father to answer the matter. ”
When the other leaders heard a thousand taels of gold, their faces also changed, that is, the Song Dynasty was richer than the previous dynasties, but this thousand taels of gold was also a large amount.
Chao Gai didn't attach so much importance to gold and silver, and after looting Gaotang Prefecture and Dongchang Mansion, there was no shortage of gold and silver in the cottage, and said with a smile: "Since you said that you will reward a thousand taels of gold, then reward it like this." If you can defeat 7,000 soldiers with 2,000 tired soldiers, it is also a great victory, and you deserve a heavy reward. ”
Chao Gai is also a person who has been the head of the family, and he also knows that if he rewards Wu Song like this, if he favors one over the other in the future, he is afraid that it will cause dissatisfaction among the leaders, so he also pointed out the particularity of this battle to pave the way for different rewards in the future.
When Wu Song heard this, he hurriedly said: "Li Cheng is Brother Yong'er hit the horse, Wu Song just picked up a bargain, this reward is still for Brother Yong'er." ”
Chao Yong smiled: "Is it possible that I can still reward myself myself, besides, I also said at that time that I killed Li Cheng, I just injured him, but it was you who killed him." But I also have some credit, you received a bounty and invited me to eat and drink. ”
The other leaders saw Chao Yong so bold, and they were also secretly heartbroken. (To be continued.) )
