Generally speaking, heads-up will rarely be a competition between the main generals of the two sides, of course, it will not be the key to determining the victory or defeat of a war, in the wars of the Sui and Tang dynasties, the scene of heads-up is indeed common - generally when the two armies meet, both sides will send their brave generals to challenge each other, in order to defeat each other's brave men to boost their morale, Li Zhen's master Qin Qiong is a veteran of this work, in the battle of the Tang Dynasty, Whenever there is an enemy brave man boasting of his martial arts, Qin Qiong is always ordered to go out and win the battle, which can be called a generation of generals, but well, in addition to the morale of the opponent victory, in fact, the impact on the course of the war itself is not too great, in this era, the final defeat of the side that wins heads-up is also full of examples.

If the selection of the commander is of course not a heads-up, but this time the selection is a pioneer officer, personal force is extremely important, without him, the pioneer officer is always the best candidate to do the heads-up work, without personal force as a guarantee, how can you become the vanguard of the army, this is the original meaning of the question, but there is nothing to say, of course, this selection is not a real battlefield bloody battle, you can't let other candidates blood stain the school in order to select a qualified pioneer officer, in general, Both sides used to use the handle of the gun wrapped in a lime bag to compete immediately, limited to a pillar of incense, and in the end, whoever has less white spots on his body is considered the winner, but there is a particular point here:

At this time, the weapons used by the generals of the Tang Dynasty are horse lances, that is, a kind of spear with a longer handle, even if some generals use Qimen weapons such as Fang Tian's halberd and gilded boring, but they are also based on spearmanship, and they can make do with lime guns. You can only attack at close range and not far, and you can fight right away, and before you can pick up the hammer, you have already been put down, besides, even if you can run the sledgehammer like flying, and the horse is not a tractor, how can it carry such a bulky thing, so it is fair for the generals to compete with the lime gun.

Nervous, not only the other candidates are nervous, but Li Zhen, who thinks he is invincible, is also very nervous, although Li Zhen does not believe that some of these candidates can be stronger than his own martial arts, but he still can't suppress his nervousness, after all, the significance of winning the vanguard is too great for Li Zhen, Li Zhen can't afford to lose at all, without him, Li Zhen is not familiar with the history of the Tang Dynasty, but he vaguely remembers that in another two or three years, it will be the most tragic period of the battle for succession, once he misses this opportunity, Let's not talk about whether Li Zhen's plan to protect himself can be realized, even if the lucky man who ascended to the throne after the dust settles will not rectify Li Zhen, how can he let such a rich and capable brother as Li Zhen lead the troops to fight? What's more, leading troops to fight has always been Li Zhen's yearning, if he can't fight on the battlefield, wouldn't the hardships he has suffered since he was a child be in vain, seeing Li Ji standing there with a wooden box, Li Zhen's heart was beating fast, and it almost burst out of his throat.

Li Ji held the wooden box in his hand, consciously stood not far away for a while, looked at the anxious generals with great interest, and then slowly walked in front of Li Zhen, and said calmly: "His Royal Highness King Yue, please smoke it first." ”

Ha, smoke first, smoke first, see what Lao Tzu's luck looks like, hey, see which unlucky guy met us first. Li Zhen nodded, took a deep breath, took out a wooden card from the wooden box, turned it over and saw that it was No. 1, and became happy: Ha, look at this trouble, we have to be the first to get on the feelings, hey, the one who met us had to pray for more blessings.

The draw was very fast, and most of the time, Li Ji had already begun to announce the situation of the first round of heads-up: "Yue Wang Li Zhen against the right Jinwu Weilang will Yao Kaifeng, and the right Xiao Riding Weilang will Qin Huaiyu against the right Weiwei Chen Qi ......"

Ha, it's been a long time, dare to love us and meet this product, hey, interesting! As soon as Li Zhen heard that he was one of the prince's sworn friends in the first battle, he immediately became happy - Yao Kaifeng is one of Hou Junji's favorite generals, he has always been domineering, relying on the power of the prince, he is rampant and domineering in the southern ya, and he has done a lot of things that those sons bully and insult their colleagues.

The open space on the bank of the Bashui River is large enough, and there are four competitions at the same time, Li Zhen drew the No. 1, so he naturally had to take the lead in the game, and he just took the lime gun handed over by the guards, and suddenly felt extremely awkward - this gun is just a wooden stick, and the bright silver gun that Li Zhen often uses cannot be compared at all, it is light and fluttering in his hand, and he doesn't feel it at all, but now, he has to adapt to it, right? Li Zhen danced a spear flower casually, and looked boredly at Yao Kaifeng, who was coming from a horse not far away, without a trace of expression on his face.

If he can not fight, Yao Kaifeng will never want to fight with Li Zhen, not because he is afraid of Li Zhen's identity as the prince, but from Li Zhen's miraculous archery just now, Yao Kaifeng came to a very bad conclusion - whether it is arm strength or eyesight, or even the war horse under the crotch, he and Li Zhen are not at the same level, and if they want to fight, they can only end up humiliating, but unfortunately Yao Kaifeng has no choice, without him, before he goes on the field, the prince has already sent someone to pass the word - be sure to knock Li Zhen off the horse, even if you can't do it, also had to exhaust Li Zhen's strength. He knows his own strength, but in the face of the pressure of the prince, Yao Kaifeng can only fight hard, and seeing that Li Zhen has already got on the horse, Yao Kaifeng hurriedly stepped forward, respectfully raised his gun and saluted, and said with a smile: "The last general will see His Royal Highness King Yue, if there is any offense, please Haihan." ”

"Well said, well said." Li Zhen replied with a smile, but the smile was a little weird, it looked like the smile of a fox when he caught a rabbit, and Yao Kaifeng felt weak for a while, and he didn't dare to stay longer, arched his hand, and galloped straight into the distance, hovering the horse, with a spear in his hand, he kicked the horse's belly, and urged the war horse to rush towards Li Zhen.

Damn, this bastard wants to hit Lao Tzu off guard, grandma's, damn shit! Li Zhen was still sitting on the horse at this time, watching Yao Kaifeng rushing towards him, he was suddenly furious in his heart, grabbed the horse's belly, and shouted: "Drive." Suddenly, the snow dragon horse, which had been standing still, let go of its four hooves and greeted Yao Kaifeng like an arrow from a string.

The speed of the horses on both sides is extremely fast, Yao Kaifeng's whole person is tightly attached to the horse's back, the spear in his hand is flat, and his arm is bent like a bow, when he saw Li Zhen kill in a hurry, the gun in his hand didn't even have time to be flattened, and he was secretly overjoyed in his heart, just when the two horses were about to meet head-on, Yao Kaifeng, who had already made a plan, yelled: "Kill!" The spear in his hand stabbed out suddenly, the spear was extremely fast, like a poisonous snake and went straight to Li Zhen's chest, and Li Zhen didn't seem to react, the spear in his hand didn't even move, the whole body sat straight, seeing that the head of the gun was about to stab Li Zhen's chest, Yao Kaifeng's face had already shown a smile of victory, but unfortunately, he seemed to laugh too early, but seeing that Li Zhen, who had never moved, suddenly twisted his waist and abdomen, turned sideways, and the inevitable shot slid down Li Zhen's chest.

Not good! Seeing that his own gun was stabbed in the air, the gun was old, and it was too late to change his moves, Yao Kaifeng suddenly panicked, but he urged the war horse vigorously, trying to dodge Li Zhen's counterattack, and the reaction was very quick, but unfortunately it was too late, Yao Kaifeng didn't understand what was going on, but he felt a strong surge in his waist, and the whole body flew away from the horse's back involuntarily, flying out like a cloud, falling to the ground, and immediately fell into a coma, but it turned out to be when the two horses intersected, The spear in Li Zhen's hand swept Yao Kaifeng's waist like a whip, and knocked him down the horse, this is still because of Li Zhen's mercy and pure skill, otherwise Yao Kaifeng will not just be stunned, if he doesn't die, he has to lose half his life, after all, it depends on the owner to beat the dog, right? Li Zhen didn't want to go to the prince when he didn't have the strength to go to the prince, and it was better to have more than less.

It's boring, at the level of this goods, it's not worth lifting shoes for Lao Tzu, it's boring! Although the soldiers of the army were excited about Li Zhen's joint defeat of the enemy, and the cheers resounded in the sky, Li Zhen himself was not excited at all, and he turned back to the guards from his own group, and looked at the other battles boredly, but it could be seen that only the four guys with outstanding archery skills in front of him had higher martial arts, and as for the rest, the level was just average, and it was not much better than Yao Kaifeng.

He Long? Haha, this time it's a good time to get over it! As soon as Li Zhen heard that he was facing Cao Helong in the second round, he suddenly had an itchy hand, got on the horse in a hurry, and rushed straight to the field, eager to kill the last game immediately, but unfortunately Li Zhen still failed to do so - He Long didn't even play on the field and abstained. Yes, people don't play anymore, Li Zhen can't tie up the opponent to play, there is no trick, except for going back to continue to watch others enjoy, Li Zhen really has no way at all, not to mention how uncomfortable the greasy taste in her heart is.

The competition went on very quickly, and the left and right were just a pillar of incense, and at the moment when Li Zhen was drowsy, the situation of the third round of the match had come out - Li Zhen vs. Hou Guozhong, Qin Huaiyu vs. Liang Zhenwu.

Ha, it's a little monkey, that's a good dare! Hou Guozhong's two rounds of competition before Li Zhen watched it, although Li Zhen did not think that Hou Guozhong, who was known as a rising star in the army, could be his opponent, but after all, he was a good opponent. I am not familiar with Hou Guozhong Li Zhen, but I also know that he is the most outstanding general under the prince, he just followed his father Hou Junji to participate in the battle to destroy Gaochangguo a few years ago, and his performance was good, and he made a lot of contributions, and he was only in his early twenties and had climbed to the high position of Zhonglang General, Li Zhen had already intended to stretch out Hou Guozhong's ability, but because of his own identity, he never had a chance.

The so-called experts will know if there is one as soon as they stretch out their hands, Hou Guozhong has seen the scene of Li Zhen Yihe defeating Yao Kaifeng, and has a rough judgment on Li Zhen's force in his heart, and he does not dare to underestimate this young prince. ”

Uh-huh, yes, kind of interesting. Although the camps are different from each other, seeing Hou Guozhong's appearance of neither arrogant nor humble, Li Zhen also has some appreciation, and said with an indifferent smile: "General Hou doesn't have to be polite, how does this start?" ”

Hou Guozhong was not polite, nodded calmly, slowly ran into the distance, pulled the reins of the horse, turned around, and calmly looked at Li Zhen in the distance, the spear in his hand pointed obliquely at the sky, and his expression was calm.

Okay, a bit of a general. Li Zhen chuckled, shook the reins of the horse, and commanded the snow dragon horse to move forward slowly, adjusting the horse's pace, and heading towards the center of the field......
