One of Cao Cao's "Five Good Generals", second only to Zhang Liao in ranking, and Le Jin, who was still before Zhang He and Xu Huang, was full of fame and status, but he earned it back from the battlefield with a knife and a gun!

Such a macho man, and the other party called out the most taboo word "little man" in front of thousands of people, and the anger value at that time had a tendency to burst. At that moment, Le Jin's eyes were full of murderous eyes and glared at Cao Bao, which made Cao Bao shiver coldly, suppressed his anger, and shouted to Zhang Qiang:

"Lord!"

Zhang Qiang will naturally not have a good impression of this bold Cao Bao who dared to surprise him under Chen Deng's planning. Since the identity of the other party is not the eldest son of a clan or the heir of the family, Zhang Qiang has no scruples about anything, and shouted at the enemy boss:

"This general, can you see something?"

- If there's anything going on with the wood, let's fight!

"My second brother is impulsive and martial, please give me advice!"

- You have to be careful, don't be too bad with the people you send!

Seeing that the other party was full of confidence, he smiled arrogantly and said to Le Jin, who took the initiative to ask for battle:

"Wen Qian, then capture this guy alive and come over and be with Chen Yuanlong!"

"Order!"

Before Le Jin's words fell, as soon as he urged the horse, he advanced towards the midfield of the two armies. At the same time, Cao Bao also stepped forward slowly, and when the commanders of both sides retreated to their own formations, the two generals were in the middle of the two armies, about 100 steps apart, each saluting each other and exchanging names.

Then, both sides grabbed their weapons and began to urge their horses to charge with all their might!

Mounted combat is not the same as infantry combat. In addition to the rider's riding skills and martial arts, the level of combat effectiveness, to a greater extent, requires the help of foreign equipment. Among these foreign equipment, the most important is the war horse under the crotch.

A qualified war horse must not only be fat and strong, carry a knight, but also be able to gallop quickly, and must have a docile temperament, be easy to maneuver, and not be surprised by any changes. Such a horse, in an ordinary ten horses, may not be able to find a qualified one.

Therefore, even if the price before the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Uprising is calculated, one horse will cost 50,000 to 100,000 yuan. If it is a better horse, it will cost at least 200,000 yuan. And at the moment when war is raging, the price of these strategic materials will increase several times.

In this way, if you want to train a qualified cavalryman, the cost is naturally quite large. Moreover, there were no bilateral stirrups in these years, and people who were not skilled in riding could easily fall off their horses. Even if they can maintain a good balance on horseback, the average cavalry lacks sufficient horseback fighting ability, and most of them can only shoot arrows on horseback.

Counting the state divisions in Xuzhou, the cavalry is only 2,000, and those who have the ability to fight fiercely on horses but will not fall off easily are only 300.

For Cao Bao, the reason why he dared to challenge Lejin, whose force was obviously above him, was that in addition to bullying Lejin for not being of high background and not necessarily having the conditions to train equestrianism, the biggest reliance was the good horse under his crotch that was specially bought from the Western Regions for 500,000 yuan.

So, how is Lejin's equestrianism?

Born into a family of middle-class officers, although he was not considered a wealthy man, he still had the money to buy an old war horse as a child and use it for riding training. After joining the army, he was selected into the cavalry team all at once, and he was accompanied by war horses all year round.

Therefore, except for Dian Wei and Zhou Cang, because the weight is too large, they can't find a suitable horse, and among the rest of the Tianping Army, Lejin's riding skills can be called the first. Even Zhang Qiang and Yu Ban, who was the same "Five Good Generals" as Le Jin in history, had to express his heartfelt admiration for Le Jin's immediate kung fu.

Although the horse that Lejin is riding now is just an ordinary war horse. However, compared to Cao Bao, Lejin has a big advantage:

Small size.

Cao Bao is eight feet tall and has a burly build, which means that the war horse needs to bear more weight. Le Jin is less than seven feet tall [about one meter six], which is shorter than an ordinary soldier, although the whole body is strong, if you talk about weight, it is three percent lighter than Cao Bao.

At this moment, Cao Bao went into battle, for the sake of safety and for show, he specially put on a silver shining "Mingguang Armor", and the fine iron spear in his hand also weighed forty catties. Compared with a simple body armor on Lejin's body, and a long-handled ring-headed knife, there is a difference between the load capacity.

In this way, in fact, the difference between the advantages and disadvantages of the two mounts has disappeared invisibly. When the two sides faced each other to hedge, the two sides watching the battle could see that the speed of the two horses was actually almost the same.

"Dang!"

The two horses rubbed shoulders and staggered, and the two generals on the horses kept flashing their bodies, and the "Zhan Qi" on the weapons shone brightly, slamming violently, making a crisp sound. In this round, both sides left their spare strength, and it was only a tentative exchange, so it did not cause any results.

Rushing past the opponent's figure, Le Jin pulled the horse's head, first slowed down, then made a small circle, turned around, and prepared for the next round of impact. At the same time, Cao Bao also turned the horse's head, restarted, and rushed towards Lejin!

This is the real battle situation of the generals on the horse.

In fact, it usually only takes one or two seconds for each of the two sides to stagger. Most of the rest of the time is spent turning the horse's head and controlling the horse's speed. So, in such a battle, the most tired is not the rider, but the horse under the rider!

However, if this is the case, it would be a big mistake to think that the general's heads-up seems boring.

In the process of the two sides riding fast horses and galloping like the wrong horses, it is actually the moment of life and death.

If you are the slightest careless, and you are shot down by the opponent from a high-speed galloping horse, if nothing else, the mere fact of falling to the ground is enough to make the fallen person lose half his life. Not to mention the enormous lethality gained by weapons in the process of hedging against each other.

Even a small knife, in this case, can pierce the protection of heavy armor and bring fatal damage. Therefore, every round, the two warring sides are like a turn on the ghost gate.

Those who dare to fight with their opponents for dozens of rounds under such circumstances can be regarded as first-class "warriors".

"Dangdang ......"

After the first few rounds of fighting, Le Jin and Cao Bao have a rough understanding of the strength of their opponents. At this point, the battle began to become more and more intense. The soldiers on both sides stared intently at this rare show, cheering and cheering for themselves.

The sun has set in the west, and it will set in another hour. Cao Bao's whole body was wrapped in sweat, and even the strong wind brought by the horse in the high-speed run could not dissipate the sweat. These sweats include hot sweat, cold sweat, and horse sweat thrown out by the beloved horse in the violent running!

After more than ten rounds of fighting, Cao Bao's heart is sinking. The opponent is just a small pawn, probably not even the team rate, but the strength of the kung fu immediately makes him feel a heartfelt fear.

Strength, agility, skill, equestrian ...... Compared with all aspects, Cao Bao was able to take advantage of none of them. Especially the strength of the opponent's "Zhan Qi", which is the only thing he has seen in more than ten years of martial arts!

——I am already recognized as a "thousand people broken" in Xuzhou. has been rampant in Xuzhou for several years, and the strongest person he has encountered is just equal to himself. And if the opponent can comprehensively suppress himself in more than ten rounds, he can be regarded as the best in the "Thousand People Break"!

Another round.

The short figure of the other party became bigger and bigger in Cao Bao's sight. Cao Bao aimed at the enemy's body, swung his spear vigorously, and stabbed it with another shot.

However, instead of knocking the spear away with a long-handled ring-headed knife like in the previous round, the opponent only twisted his body on the horse and dodged the shot from under the armpit. At the same time, the blade in the opponent's hand, the backhand against Cao Bao's head, is an oblique cut!

Cao Bao was so frightened that his soul was about to fly out!

Seeing that this knife was about to make his head different, Cao Bao didn't know where to get the strength, so he actually abandoned the gun in time, made an "iron plate bridge", leaned back, and fell on the horse's back. The blade whistled across Cao Bao's face, and Cao Bao could almost feel the chill on the blade.

Just heard the sound of "clang", Cao Bao's neck was light, his whole body was sweating like pulp, and he screamed in horror:

"My Head ......"
