Chapter 309: Friend and Foe Are Inseparable
"How many are there?" Huang Yudie asked anxiously.
"About five or six hundred."
"Under what banner?"
"It's Liaodong Li, the three-word banner." Tanma replied.
"Don't be afraid, quickly form a formation. It won't take long for our brigade to arrive. is about to be here, to annihilate their reinforcements who don't know whether they are alive or dead. After Huang Yudie finished speaking, she waved her hand behind her.
"Give me a quick end to this group. However, Yu Ren and Jiang Xiaowan want to stay alive. ”
Everyone agreed, and rushed up to Yu Ren and the others. At this point, they don't have time to hesitate.
Yu Ren had already re-stepped on the war horse at this time, and Jiang Xiaowan and Lu Yue rode together. Hearing the news of the other party's horse visit, Yu Renxin was overjoyed and worried.
The joy is: after waiting for so long, I finally waited for reinforcements.
The worry is: no matter how fierce the cavalry of only 500 people is, it will not play much role in the battle situation of the entire Yanzhou City.
And another layer of confusion made him feel that the banner of these people was not what army or army, but the three words 'Liaodong and Li'. What does this mean? What kind of team is this? ”
Huang Yudie didn't leave Yu Ren more time to think, she had already given the order to attack. Yu Ren didn't wait for his opponent to rush over, so he took the initiative to lift the long knife and urged the horse to rush over. Others followed.
This time, Huang Yudie didn't do it herself, she just reined in the horse and watched coldly the melee between her subordinates and Yu Ren's horses. And her gaze had left the battlefield in front of her and looked into the distance.
Sure enough, without letting Huang Yudie wait long, a group of cavalry appeared on the avenue ahead. Looking at their war horses, they are all blue Mongolian horses, and you can see that the strength of the other party is not bad.
Although Huang Yudie didn't take this small group of enemies in her eyes, she didn't dare to hold it up, after all, her main force had not yet arrived, and there were only these one hundred and ten people around her.
Seeing that the cavalry on the opposite side had rushed in front of him, Huang Yudie let out a whistling and then made a gesture. The more than 100 cavalrymen who were surrounding Yu Ren and the others suddenly withdrew from the battle and gathered around Huang Yudie. Although these men rode southern ponies, it was evident from their swift and orderly movements that they were somewhat trained.
Yu Ren held the knife in both hands, and the blood on his body dripped down his arm to the ground. I don't know if it's his own or his enemy's.
"General, are you alright?" Lu Yue was also covered in blood at this time, and she was the first to return to Yu Ren's side. Several other people also quickly regrouped around Yu Ren. This cute little girl with a little naughty has become a veteran after being tempered on the battlefield in recent months.
Yu Ren glanced around him, it was only a brief engagement, they had already lost three more people, and at this time, there were only six horsemen left beside him. With six horsemen, against the opponent's hundred horsemen. This battle was almost never fought. But Yu Ren didn't bow his head, he glanced at the surviving comrades around him, and clenched his sword again sadly, ready to charge again.
Just as Yu Ren was about to make a desperate fight, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him. A squad of cavalry finally came behind him.
"Don't be rampant with the anti-thieves of the Wenxiang Sect, our young general has already brought 5,000 reinforcements to aid Yanzhou. Those who know each other will quickly dismount and surrender, lest the time comes, and your bones will be gone. ”
Before he could reach the ground, a man who looked like a domestic servant was already shouting loudly.
Yu Ren only felt that the voice was very familiar, and hurriedly turned his head to look.
And he saw that among the cavalry behind him, there were three horsemen and one horse in the lead. Among them was a young man in his early twenties with silver armor all over his body. This person is not an outsider, it is Yu Ren's old acquaintance - Li Xianzhong, the son of Li Rusong, the former Liaodong commander-in-chief. Immediately following Li Xianzhong were his two most trusted domestic servants - Li Liu and Li Qi.
It was Li Liu who spoke just now.
"The general need not be afraid. Now, you're safe. Come and join us! Li Liu said to Yu Ren with kindness.
Yu Ren didn't move. He didn't understand why this Li Xianzhong suddenly appeared here with his troops. Looking at the group of people he led, it was obvious that they were not officers and soldiers. They wore colorful clothes and were not uniformly equipped. There were those with swords, some with spears, and some with swords. It's a fight with Huang Yudie's team.
Seeing Li Xianzhong suddenly appear here, Yu Ren was stunned for a moment. He would never have thought that it was his old rival who saved his life at this critical moment today. The grievances and hatreds in Fujian and Zhejiang resurfaced in front of Yu Ren's eyes.
Li Xianzhong stared at Yu Ren's face fixedly, and after a long while, he asked tentatively.
"This general is very kind-faced, I wonder if we have seen it somewhere? What about the feudal generals? ”
Yu Ren wiped the blood from his face casually, and then arched his hand to Li Xianzhong.
"Brother Li, don't come unharmed!"
Li Xianzhong finally recognized Yu Ren, and he showed a surprised expression. "It's you!"
Recognizing that the person in front of him was his enemy Yu Ren, Li Xianzhong's first reaction was to draw his sword and point at Yu Ren. "You kid even dare to pretend to be a court general!" After saying that, he was going to order his subordinates to arrest Yu Ren.
But just then, he saw another person. The appearance of this person made Li Xianzhong immediately break out in a cold sweat.
"Li Xianzhong, don't be rude!" Lu Yue urged the horse to take a step forward and stopped in front of Yu Ren's horse.
Li Xianzhong saw Lu Yue, although she was wearing a suit of armor at this time, and her body and face were already red with blood, Li Xianzhong still recognized her at a glance.
"His Royal Highness, the County Lord!"
After speaking, Li Xianzhong hurriedly put away his sword, then turned over and dismounted. "The villain greets His Royal Highness the county lord."
Lu Yue sat proudly on horseback and did not move.
"You don't have to call me the county lord. I'm just a close guard under General Yu now. ”
Hearing Lu Yue say this, Li Xianzhong's eyes showed incomparable surprise, and he looked at Yu Ren in front of him in disbelief. This young man who has never been looked up to by himself, and he doesn't know what amazing magic he has, and he can always get the favor of those beauties who he Li Xianzhong wants to get close to, but can't get close. This made Li Xianzhong's heart once again ignite a raging fire of jealousy.
"Li Xianzhong, tell me honestly, how many people did you bring this time?"
Li Xianzhong glanced at Huang Yudie opposite. "About five thousand people. These are the old team members of our Li family, I heard that the county lord and the prince were trapped in Yanzhou City by these thieves, so they summoned all the young people in the clan as soon as possible to come to rescue the county lord and the prince. ”
Li Xianzhong's words were clearly flattering. This made Yu Ren a little unconvinced. Lu Yue obviously didn't trust this open-mouthed second lord either.
"Well, then these thieves in front of you will be handed over to you."
Li Xianzhong proudly drew his sword and replied loudly to Lu Yue, "For the safety of the county lord, the young general will not hesitate to go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot." ”
After speaking, Li Xianzhong said to Li Liudao beside him, "Sixth son, the county lord will hand it over to you to protect." Xiao Qi followed me to kill the rebels, and then went to the city of Yanzhou with all his might, completely defeated these rebels, and sent the county lord back to the city. ”
Li Liu agreed, and urged the horse to come to Lu Yue's side, wanting Lu Yue to follow him to his team.
Lu Yue shook her head. "I have already said that I am now General Yu's close guard, not a county lord. You don't have to worry about me, just kill these thieves first. ”
When Li Xianzhong heard Lu Yue's words, his heart was more like knocking over the five-flavor bottle. He glanced at Yu Ren with jealousy.
"I didn't expect Brother Yu to really have a set! How dare we let our county lord be your guard. However, some people will always only play some clever tricks to win some false fame, and they will not be able to do it at a critical moment. Since Brother Yu can't protect the county lord, please step aside and see how we kill the enemy!" ”
Yu Ren smiled slightly, he is not the kind of person who fights to the end for the sake of face, since someone has taken over this strong enemy for him now, he is just happy to sit and watch it.
Yu Ren arched his hand to Li Xianzhong, "Then there is Brother Lao Li!" After saying that, he took Lu Yue, Ruolan Ruomei, and the few remaining people to the side.
