Chapter 498: Wu Sangui's Ambition
The north wind was blowing, and dust was flying on the ground from time to time, and the two armies faced each other in front of the formation. The wind blew the flags and roared the most, and the hooves of the war horses were not digging the ground, and neighing sounded from time to time in their mouths......
In the camp of the Ming army, a young general took the lead, wearing silver armor and a jujube red war horse on his crotch, which looked majestic. The helmet swayed with the wind, and he held a large knife in one hand, and looked at the other side with blazing eyes.
In the military array opposite, the leader was a young man, dressed in white armor, who also looked very heroic, and this person was the white flag Dutong Dorgon. Behind him were the skillful Eight Banners disciples.
Staring closely at the Ming army general in silver armor on the opposite side, Dorgon felt that this person must be difficult to mess with. The Ming army on the opposite side also surprised Dolgon, and the connoisseur knew if there was one or not, and as soon as he saw this Ming army, Dolgon knew that this was a well-trained cavalry team that was forbidden by order.
Because the distance was too far, Dolgon couldn't see the cooperation between the Ming army and the war horse on the other side, which made Dolgon feel a little uneasy. But at this time, it is impossible to retreat, and it must be a success. If he can repel the cavalry of 20,000 people in front of him, he will rush over directly, and the large group of men and horses behind will take advantage of the situation to cover and kill, and the Ming army will be able to fight a battle.
On the side of the Ming army, Sun Chuanting stood behind in military uniform, and on both sides were the army with goose wings spreading. When he saw Lu Xiangsheng riding on the horse, Sun Chuanting's mouth never closed. Although he had long heard that Lu Xiangsheng was both civil and military, Sun Chuanting did not take it to heart, thinking that it was not out of fashion, and everyone complimented Lu Xiangsheng, no matter how high a civil official's martial arts are. In Sun Chuanting's heart, he was hesitant to let Lu Xiangsheng lead the cavalry, which is why he wanted to test the combat power of the cavalry.
glanced back at Qi Jin who was standing beside him. Sun Chuanting frowned slightly, and said with a little hesitation: "General Qi, I know that the general is a fierce general, and he is highly valued by the emperor. ”
"My lord praised it falsely, Qi Jin is just using his uncle's honor, in fact, he is an ordinary general." Qi Jin hurriedly bowed and was rude. After so many years, Qi Jin is no longer young and frivolous, and calmness is his characteristic.
Qi Jin knew very well in his heart that although he could fight well, compared to his uncle, he was not a little worse. Although this Lord Sun is a civilian official, he is extremely proficient in military books and battle strategies, and he is even more proficient in the way of military training. has a good background, and the emperor is important. The ability is very high, how could Qi Jin offend such a person.
Smiled and nodded, Sun Chuanting glanced at Qi Jin higher in his heart, Qi Jiguang's nephew is really extraordinary, not only has outstanding ability, but is also very good at being a person. Glancing at Lu Xiangsheng in the distance, Sun Chuanting said, "General Qi, do you think you are facing Lord Lu." What are the odds? ”
When Qi Jin heard this, his mouth was immediately full of bitterness. What do you mean by that? There is too much difference between him and Lu Xiangsheng, of course, not in ability but in background. After a moment of silence, Qi Jin said what to say, he must not agree to Lu Xiangsheng. Frowning, he shook his head, and said as if he was embarrassed: "Lord Qiqi." Qi Jin is probably not Lord Lu's opponent, Qi Jin has already inquired just now, the knife in Lord Lu's hand is made of dark iron, weighing one hundred and thirty-six catties. He Shixian, the chief soldier of Liaodong, was full of martial arts, and he only walked a dozen rounds under Lord Lu. Qi Jin naturally doesn't need to mention it. ”
After Sun Chuanting asked, he already felt that it was inappropriate, he originally thought that Qi Jin would perfunctory himself, but he didn't expect to get such an answer. But this is also the answer that surprised and delighted him, if Lu Xiangsheng is really so capable of fighting, then it is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty, this is a real all-round talent in civil and military affairs.
Although Lu Xiangsheng has outstanding ability in history, because of Yang Sichang's jealousy and jealousy, Lu Xiangsheng has not been able to really show it, and finally died on the battlefield and was shrouded in horse leather. As the saying goes, the sky is high and the birds fly, and the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and Lu Xiangsheng is destined to shine in this life.
When Sun Chuanting and Qi Jin were talking, a very young general walked over, with a maturity on his face that was rare in young people, his hands pressed the hilt of the knife at his waist, and he walked with a dragon and a tiger step, and his spirit was high. When he came to Sun Chuanting's side, the young man picked up the battle group and knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "My lord, let the lowly go away!" ”
Looking at the young man kneeling in front of him, Sun Chuanting had a little helplessness on his face, he really didn't know what the Emperor of the Apocalypse was doing when he sent him here. However, Sun Chuanting liked this young man very much, and helped the young man up with his own hands, and said with a smile: "Where are you going?" ”
As if he was not satisfied with Sun Chuanting's words, the young man frowned, and said with a serious face: "My lord, the war is about to start in front, please let the humble post go!" Although he stood up, the boy still clenched his fists and his tone was very resolute.
Qi Jin, who was standing beside Sun Chuanting, was also looking this young man up and down at this moment, this young man's appearance was very good, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and bright eyes. The figure is very well-proportioned, the coordination is very good, and although the body is wearing armor, it can still be seen that the body is full of explosive power.
However, Qi Jin's eyes saw the hands of young men, which should have been young hands with fine skin and tender flesh, but at this time, they were full of calluses and scars. As a military general, Qi Jin knew that it was left by people who practiced martial arts. But what moved him was something he had never before, and when Qi Jin was at this age, he was definitely not the opponent of this young man.
Sun Chuanting did not answer the young man directly, but turned his gaze to Qi Jin on the side, and said with a smile: "General Qi, this is this year's martial arts eye Wu Sangui, how about the general?" ”
Qi Jin didn't expect this young man to be a martial artist, but this was also expected, after all, such a young but powerful teenager should naturally have such an achievement. hugged his fist at Sun Chuanting and said respectfully: "My lord, Wu Bangyan is a talent, and when he was in this grade, he didn't have such strength. ”
I didn't expect Qi Jin to say this, but Sun Chuanting smiled and nodded, he was very important to Wu Sangui. Seeing that Wu Sangui did not retreat at all, Sun Chuanting said with a wry smile: "Those 20,000 cavalry are all soldiers of Liaodong, what do you want Ben Shuai to send you in?" ”
"My lord, I am willing to be the forerunner! Even if it's a pawn, as long as you can kill Jiannu, you are willing to do it! Wu Sangui suddenly looked overjoyed, and hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted.
Sun Chuanting and Qi Jin looked at each other and smiled, but it was impossible for them to put Wu Sangui to Lu Xiangsheng, and after a moment of silence, Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice: "Wu Sangui, since you like cavalry battles, then you can go to General Qi Jin for the time being." Although there are only 5,000 cavalry, they are still cavalry. Study hard, and when the three major battalions form cavalry in the future, it will be your chance to show your ambitions. ”
Although he was not satisfied, Wu Sangui knew that this was the final decision, and he could not question the authority of the coach before the battle. Wu Sangui knows very well that this is Sun Chuanting's emphasis on himself, otherwise there would be no such thing.
Bowing down to Sun Chuanting, Wu Sangui said in a respectful tone: "Don't worry, your lordship, your humble position will not disappoint your lord!" Seeing Sun Chuanting waving his hand, Wu Sangui turned behind Qi Jin.
At the same time, the sound of war drums suddenly sounded on the battle array, and the faces of several people suddenly became serious, and the real battle was about to begin. At this time, a staff general suddenly came to Sun Chuanting's side, saluted respectfully, and said, "Marshal, the artillery is ready!" ”
Nodding with a smile, Sun Chuanting waved his hand to signal the general to step back, and said to Qi Jin on the side with a little joy on his face: "General Qi, if you wipe out more than half of the 20,000 Jiannu cavalry, I don't know how that wild boar skin will react?" ”
Qi Jin also had a smile on his face, and said in a relaxed tone: "I'm afraid that Jiannu will come to rescue these 20,000 people, so my lord should be ready for a full-scale battle!" Jiannu will not watch us wipe out the 20,000 cavalry, and it is not impossible to fight it in an all-round way. ”
Nodding slowly, listening to Qi Jin's words, Sun Chuanting's face became serious. However, he seemed to have been prepared, and just said to Qi Jin meaningfully: "The Qi family's army is famous, I hope General Qi will not disappoint this commander!" ”
"Don't worry, my lord, Qi Jin will go and prepare!" Seeing Sun Chuanting nodding, Qi Jin turned around and walked to the back, forcibly suppressing the excitement in his heart, Qi Jin secretly made up his mind that this time he must take revenge for the last time.
Wu Sangui followed behind Qi Jin excitedly, with an excited smile on his face, he could finally show his skills.
Lu Xiangsheng, who was in front of the battle array, looked at Cao Wenzhao beside him, crossed the big knife in his hand, and said: "General Cao, it's up to us this time, how about raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, why don't we compare them this time?" ”
Although Cao Wenzhao is a martial champion, there is still a status gap between him and Lu Xiangsheng next to him, but there is no first in the text, no second in the martial arts, Cao Wenzhao will naturally not admit defeat. Shun the big gun in his hand and said: "Since the adults have this Yaxing, Cao Wenzhao will naturally accompany him to the end!" ”
"Good! The husband should be like this! Lu Xiangsheng laughed loudly, and the armor on his body rattled, as if he couldn't wait to rush forward.
Dolgon on the opposite side was also ready at this time, pulled out the scimitar on his waist, and shouted loudly: "The athletes of the Eight Banners, let the soft eggs of Da Ming see our strength today, rush!" ”
With Dolgon's shout, the Eight Banners let go of the reins of their horses and rushed forward with loud shouts, all with excited looks on their faces. Although they were not confident in attacking the city, they had never been afraid of the cavalry of the Ming army. There was a bloodthirsty light flashing in his eyes, and the war horse under his crotch instantly increased to the fastest impact speed.
