Chapter 86: The Horse Thief
It turned out that since this Li Jue was inserted into the forbidden army in Kyoto by Dong Bufan, he has been at odds with this orthodox leader Tie Meng.
The iron fierceness is like fire, when he sees Li Jue, he picks his nose and eyes, Li Jue is very calm, and he argues with Tie Meng every time he has a handle, so although Tie Meng is a senior official, he has always been helpless against him.
Both of them are their masters, and they are both struggling to find each other's weaknesses and then expel each other from the army.
Early this morning, when the soldiers practiced the formation in the martial arts field, Li Jue began to keep picking thorns, saying that the defenders of Kyoto were too slack. The sloppy sloppy nature of the drill is too child's play. In this way, if you go to the battlefield, it will not be of great use.
This is true, there are many people in Huahan Kingdom, so it is understandable that the army pays attention to this point, but for some reason, the more people in the Central Plains, the more numerous they are, and the more they reach the border fortress, there are very few people who can have an epiphany.
Moreover, the energetic energy can be used as a thousand in the Central Plains, but when it comes to the border pass, the use of energy is quite poor, and it can only exert fifty percent of the strength at most, so the military households on the border pass are really much stronger than the Central Plains soldiers and horses because they have guarded the border for generations, swords, spears, and martial arts formations.
A few days ago, Xu Fei was like this in the grassland, his strength was not used smoothly, and the tribes on the grassland were quick and skilled. Therefore, although there are 100 enemies at the border, a large-scale war between the two sides still depends on the military appearance of both sides and the strategy of the generals.
Therefore, Li Jue looked at the forbidden army guarding Kyoto, and the sword and spear equipment felt quite shabby, and the formation martial arts were not worth it. That Tie Meng is also from a military background, how can he not know such common sense.
But this Li Jue sneered and spoke harshly, as if he was an incompetent person, and he acted the Kyoto Forbidden Army like a little doll, where could Tie Meng's fiery temper endure.
turned his face and argued with Li Jue at the moment, both of them were born in the army, so what good things to say. The two went from arguing with reason to insulting each other, from insulting each other to reaching out and fighting.
The iron fierce was angry for a while, seeing that Li Jue usually did not show any skills, he immediately challenged to compete in front of these thousands of soldiers, and divided the high and low, in fact, he wanted to teach Li Jue a hard lesson and make a mistake about his prestige.
Where did he know that Li Jue was in his arms, and immediately agreed, and the two of them did not speculate on the spot. This iron fierce man is as his name, his body is like steel and iron, and he is as fierce as King Kong Tai Sui.
When he fights people, he automatically melts the steel around him, and then immerses himself in his body, allowing his flesh to merge with the extremely high temperature of the metal liquid. As a result, he became like a body of iron beating muscles, and he had an extremely high body temperature like molten iron.
The weight of the shot is like an iron giant, after hitting the ordinary object is burned at the touch, he is also invulnerable, and the person who charges into the battle is invincible, and he is a first-class master.
And this Li Jue is one of the two personal guards brought by Dong Bufan from Xiliang, who is shrewd and capable, tenacious and cunning, and has the strength of a hand called "withered vines and old trees and crows".
Xiliang is located in a desolate place, the land is barren and the scenery is slaughtered, so the people are fierce, Li Jue was born as a horse thief in Xiliang, but a group of horse thieves plundered and robbed the son born after the woman went up the mountain, the mother is missing, and the father does not know who it is.
Li Jue, who grew up in the thief's den, has been watching the world coldly since he was a child, and followed the horse thief to learn the trick of killing people and goods. Proud of being cruel and killing, proud of cunning and viciousness.
He seems to have been born to kill and plunder, take the lead in looting, kill bravely with one as ten, and be meticulous when he makes plans. At the age of twelve, he had an epiphany of the way of heaven, and finally achieved great success in his hard work, and only at the age of sixteen he became the leader of these horse thieves.
These horse thieves also became more and more powerful, and finally developed into a team of thousands of people, who dared to rob the official army of supplies.
This incident angered Dong Bufan, and ordered the officials and troops from all over the country to encircle and suppress this horse thief team, but he didn't expect this Li Jue to be scheming and elusive. turned around the officers and soldiers who came to encircle and suppress, and couldn't feel the shadow of the horse thief, and gave Li Jue an opportunity to cut off the grain channel of the officers and soldiers.
As a result, the officers and troops ran for a long time, and the large number of people cut off food supplies, and the army's morale was in turmoil. Li Jue did not take advantage of the victory to attack, but continued to harass and slow down the opponent's march, and when the morale of the officers and soldiers collapsed and disappeared, and hurriedly returned to the city, Li Jue poured out of the nest and ambushed on the way to go.
The ambush was not in a dangerous place, but a place where you could almost faintly see the city in the distance. When the officers and soldiers of the brigade were dizzy from hunger, and finally saw the distant city, Li Jue led the team to rush into the sea of sheep like wolves.
At this time, the morale of the officers and soldiers collapsed, seeing that the city wall was in front of them, everyone only cared about fleeing for their lives, and ran to the faint city wall without their lives, and Li Jue led the horse thieves to kill most of the officers and soldiers like a whirlwind, and the rest fled into the city and never dared to go out of the city to encircle and suppress.
After this battle, Li Jue's voice in Xiliang was shocked, and the children cried at night and their parents scared their children to mention the name of Li Jue. Fame is unparalleled for a while.
After Dong Bufan knew about this, he was not angry but happy, and personally led the army to encircle and annihilate Li Jue's horse thief team, Dong Bufan looked rude and arrogant, but in fact, he was a veteran of the battlefield. After many days of wrangling with Li Jue, he finally relied on the tactics of taking the camp step by step and being unmoved, mobilized troops and horses and finally forced these horse thieves into a narrow valley.
This Li Jue broke through several times and could not be broken, so he led the remaining horse thieves to surrender to Dong Bufan, and Dong Bufan readily agreed.
As soon as the horse thief team came out of the valley, Li Jue suddenly led the team to attack the Chinese army that directly took Dong Bufan. It turned out that this person was a fraudulent surrender, and he wanted to rely on his own strength to go straight to the Chinese army, and wanted to win the coach in exchange for a way out.
Who knew that this Dong Bufan had already prepared, and when the formation changed, the horse thief charge formation was squeezed and crushed from the side, Li Jue was still fighting, and he rushed into the encirclement alone, and went straight to the position where Shuai Qi was.
Dong Bufan actually repelled the left and right guards, and fought alone with Li Jue on this battlefield. Dong Bufan used this "primeval wilderness" to break Li Jue's "withered vines and old trees", but he didn't kill him, and let him keep his own soldiers and horses, and immediately treat them as his own personal guards.
Li Jue was convinced, he was deeply impressed by the other party's bearing, resourcefulness and strength, and submitted to Dong Bufan, and since then he has no two hearts, and has become the most powerful right-hand man under Dong Bufan.
When he fought with Tie Meng, he already knew Tie Meng's strength well, and even asked many people who had worked with Tie Meng before, and the strengths and weaknesses of that person's strength were carefully considered.
At this time, although there was a duel in the martial arts arena, Li Jue had been in advance for many days, and where did Tie Meng know, he immediately melted and absorbed the accompanying iron steel block to himself.
I saw that Tie Meng was only wearing a pair of shorts made of asbestos under the sea, and his whole body was red, like the fire god Zhu Rong descending into the world, the sound was like a thunderbolt, moving like molten iron, and he could melt and transform into a crimson and high-temperature blade in his hand, which went straight to Li Jue.
Li Jue was unarmed, and when he saw the iron slamming over, he just dodged, and did not fight back, and his "dead vine and old tree faint crow" energy was described as dead and silent like a dead vine and old tree.
It's like being a horse thief when you come and go without a trace, and even if you appear around, it's silent, like a dead vine and an old tree, and you can't detect it. And constantly absorb each other's strength and vitality.
This iron stormed for a long time and failed to capture the figure, the strength was already weak, the body gradually became cool, and the body became dignified.
When it really strikes, it is the last faint crow, since ancient times, this crow is not an auspicious bird, which means that it means to kill.
Its strength is everywhere, like a group of crows dancing wildly, and people can't see it, but the life force of the body is slowly extracted with this crow shadow. When Tie Meng could no longer maintain this molten iron energy, Li Jue slapped Tie Meng into the mouth with a palm in the shadow of the stealth crow, and fell to the ground.
Li Jue's army was neutral and powerful, and among the 10,000 military horses under his jurisdiction, there were some junior officers who tended to be inflammatory.
Many of these Kyoto forbidden troops are the juniors of Kyoto officials, who came to this military to take a walk, plated with a layer of gold, and have a little resume, and then mixed with a little credit to be eligible for promotion, so they are not a warrior of a hundred battles, Qu Ying flattery is a good hand.
In order to win over Dong Bufan's forces, Li Jue naturally did not refuse to come, and promised that if he saw the wind and made the rudder loyal to the Heavenly Master in the future, he would naturally be rewarded with glory and wealth.
Li Jue was proud in his camp tent, and suddenly his own soldiers came in to report.
Guo Temple is here.
