Chapter 431: The Demon King Comes Out of the Abyss

"Armor!"

Facing the stunned Li Yun, Ruan Xiaoer reacted extremely quickly, removing Li Kui's armor from the back of the pack horse, as well as his chilling three-pointed and two-edged blade. The three-pointed two-edged knife is actually very common in the Great Song Dynasty army, and it is also an important weapon in the eight-color knife in the "General Essentials of the Martial Arts". But the difference between Li Kui's three-pointed and two-edged blade is that it is longer and heavier than ordinary drop knives.

When Ruan Xiaoer walked over with Li Kui's three-pointed and two-edged blade, Gao Yu finally understood the true meaning of 'armor' - his civilian brother Li Kui couldn't think of it, and he wanted to lead the troops to charge in person!

If this is said, where will Gao Yu's face go?

What embarrassed him even more was that his courage did not skyrocket because of brotherhood, but trembled like a body drenched in ice water.

"Renjie, don't do it!"

Gao Yu hugged Li Kui, where did he dare to let Li Kui go to death?

But Li Kui said indifferently: "Gao Yu, you don't have to go." ”

Hearing this, Gao Yu was obviously stunned, followed by a snickering joy in his heart. There is no need to send him to death, which is undoubtedly a happy thing for Gao Yu. But then he thought about it, should he be happy with this idea of being greedy for life and afraid of death? Shame on you! He is a soldier and a man, and his martial spirit has collapsed, not to mention, he can't watch the civilian officials go to the battlefield, right?

Although, Li Kui, a civil official, is definitely an outlier among civil officials.

But when Gao Yu was under Su Shi's door before, he always took care of Li Kui and Li Yun with the mind of a big brother, although these two people didn't need Gao Yu's care at all.

Later, after coming to the capital, Li Kui changed his identity, and Gao Yu also accepted this change of identity willingly, who let Li Kui catch up with Taishi Liu?

But right now, Li Kui wants to launch an attack on the party members under Gao Yu's nose, but he can only watch dryly, and he can't help but suggest Li Kui: "Renjie, don't be impatient, the party members are already camping, and they can't run." In another hour or so, it will be dark, so wouldn't it be better for us to hurry up and rest until midnight to sneak attack? ”

It's a pity that this suggestion was immediately rejected by Li Kui: "Although the party members are camping, we can also arrange people to attack the camp." But the question is, can you guarantee that your men and Li Yun's cavalry will be able to fight at night? ”

Night attack, although it is a tactic that is almost rotten by storytellers, but in the actual battlefield, it is almost impossible to happen.

Night blindness alone can keep most armies out of night raids.

Moreover, how to attack, how to assemble, and how to move at night in night operations are all difficult tasks, and even the most elite troops of the Great Song Dynasty may not be able to do it. In daytime operations, it is possible to use the flag language as an auxiliary means for the commander-in-chief to issue orders, and with the addition of signal troops, it is possible to coordinate operations between armies. And at night, can the drums be used as a means of transmission for giving orders?

Obviously, the drums of war cannot give complex orders, so they can only give up.

This is also why night is a very good camouflage for combat sneak attacks, but there are few famous examples of field battles.

It's not that no one thought about it, but it couldn't be done.

As soon as Gao Yu brought it up, he beat a drum in his heart, and after being refuted by Li Kui, his face was even more flustered. The night attack was the best he could come up with, and once Li Kui refused, he was helpless.

But he always felt that he should do something, and reminded Li Kui: "Renjie, if you really launch an attack now, you will have two hundred cavalry in your hands, and the rest of the cavalry will be sent out by you as scouts. ”

"There are only two or three hundred party members, and they can't make waves."

As he spoke, Li Kui began to prepare to take people around Tuliang and launch an attack on the party members. Li Kui came to Yangquan County on Yanyan Road to take up his post, obviously a civil official of a county lieutenant, but he even brought armor and weapons, to say that he didn't even have any intentions and preparations, Gao Yu would not believe anything.

He was even in the mood to comfort Gao Yu and said: "Gao Yu, and relieved, I will take someone to do a vote first." If you can't do it, you can still escape in the night. You can't do it at night, and you can't be afraid to rush at night. In addition, our scouts are the most prepared, within a radius of dozens of miles, there are no other party armies at all, do not worry that we will fall into the bitter battle of the party people, this battle is the battle of our forbidden army in the northwest, there is no loss. Perhaps Li Kui's personality is very arrogant on weekdays, but after encountering the grain transportation team that was sneak attacked, he immediately showed enough caution. At least the number of scouts was doubled by him. Although the number of cavalry available to Li Kui was greatly reduced, the benefits in the newspaper were immediate.

More than 300 scouts should have gotten some useful information, right?

Immediately, Li Kui said to Li Yun: "Let your people prepare weapons and armor and prepare to attack." ”

Gao Yu saw that he couldn't persuade Li Kui, and his heart was broken, but Li Kui couldn't stop him, Li Yun led the cavalry, and the infantry he led were all infantry, and most of the people couldn't follow Li Kui to kill. What's more, although Gao Yu also has a handsome looking war horse, he can't do it if he is asked to learn to charge like a cavalry. He also understands that he is two pounds, and on the battlefield, he not only can't help Li Kui, but may even be unhelpful. Although the distance of the cavalry is large, the consumption of the war horses is not necessarily impossible to fight. But if the infantry marches quickly on the battlefield, as long as a pillar of incense is done, the physical strength of the soldiers will be in serious trouble.

Besides, how could the infantry catch up with the cavalry to fight?

It was not easy to persuade Li Kui, Gao Yu turned to Li Yun for help, but what he didn't expect was that Li Yun was more active than Li Kui after Li Kui gave the order. He had already put on his armor and was eager to wait for Li Kui's order.

Unlike Gao Yu, Li Yun has fought with Li Kui many times, and several times he has fallen into the dangerous experience of being in the midst of many enemy troops, and each time he has turned the corner. He is not a timid master, and the more dangerous he is, the more he seems to arouse his aggressive heart.

"Second brother, don't worry, I'll follow you!"

Crazy, crazy. Gao Yu thought silently in his heart, he didn't expect Li Yun to be inconspicuous on weekdays, but at a critical time, he was so iron-headed. Although he has been through a few fights, which ones are what?

Rebels who don't go into the stream?

Water bandits?

A thief who lives in the mountains.

How can these people be compared to party members?

The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, in case Li Kui dies, for Gao Yu, his backer will fall. In a hurry, Gao Yu stopped Li Kui and asked eagerly: "Renjie, what should I do?" ”

Li Kui touched his chin, thought for a while, and said to Gao Yu: "If I win, the horse of the party who was robbed will join you, and then find a way to Fushi." If I don't win, you can find a chance to run on your own. By the way, you must bring Hao Sui with you when you run. If Hao Sui dies, you, the deputy commander of the guard, may be beheaded. ”

If Hao Sui is really dead and Gao Yu is safe and sound, this may be really big.

Gao Yu's face was like earth, and he didn't know how to answer.

On the contrary, Li Kui led the war horse diagonally through the earthen beam, preparing to launch an attack on the party members. Li Yun followed up and asked, "Second brother, you said that there are two or three hundred party talents, what if you see us running away?" ”

"Will you run if you change?" Li Kui asked rhetorically.

Li Yun hurriedly shook his head: "I have no reason to run away. ”

Li Kui smiled: "You don't have it, and neither are the party members." Like Li Yun, the party members of this era have a great psychological advantage over Song Jun.

This question is too easy for Li Yun to answer, he may not have been clear before, but after passing the Wu Zhuangyuan examination, he has a deep understanding of the situation of the Western Army. The party people did not have a very good way to siege the city, and even faced the Song people to strengthen the city wall, often losing troops and losing generals, but in vain.

However, in the field battle, the party members have an innate advantage, and if Gao Yu comes out with the army, more than 1,000 people will face two or three hundred party members, and it is difficult to say whether they will be able to fight in the end. But if two or three hundred party members found the same strength of Song cavalry in the field, they would definitely not run. Besides, the party members drove the horses over, obviously not running fast. The best way to stay and deal with this army that has come out of nowhere is the best way.

After running past the highest point of Tuliangzi, Li Kui and the cavalry behind him were exposed to the sight of the party members.

Almost at the same time, the party members discovered Li Kui and others.

A figure appeared behind Tuliangzi, which made the party members very nervous. At first, they were nervous, because no one knew how many troops Li Kui had under him who could participate in the battle. Although they have a brilliant record on the battlefield, especially in the field. But if there is a huge gap in numbers, psychological superiority cannot fill the gap in numbers. Although the party members are brave and good at fighting, if they really face an opponent who is impossible to defeat, they will not be stupid enough to hit their heads hard.

One.

Two.

After more than 200 Great Song cavalry appeared, no new people appeared in Tuliang behind them.

This made the party members who had already stood up and on guard breathe a sigh of relief, but at this time, a young man led by the party members became excited: "Tell the sons, remember not to let these Song people escape." The leader of the big man left it to me, and I want him to sacrifice my father's battle flag. ”

The young party nobleman squinted his eyes and stared at Li Kui from afar, he didn't think that Li Kui was his threat, but decided at a glance that Li Kui would become his military merit. In particular, Li Kui stood at the front of the team, and was obviously the leader of the Song army.

"Young master, I'm afraid this person is not easy to deal with, do you want to let Golmud kill this person. Young master, you are a golden body, how can you fight with the Song people, in case of a mistake, the old master can't explain. ”

Although the party members established the state, the basis for maintaining their rule was the tribal system.

It's not good, it's not bad.

The steppe tribes have the difficulties of the steppe tribes, and if they want a complete system, it will not necessarily bring much benefit to the whole country. However, the steppe tribes have followed this backward system for thousands of years, and there must be a reason for its longevity.

Naturally, the young party nobleman was not satisfied with being a spectator on the battlefield, he needed more military merits and the praise of his subordinates, which was even more important to him. Gaining the respect of strength and the admiration of courage, what could be easier than slashing an enemy on the battlefield?

As Li Kui estimated, the young man did not choose to run away.

The forces are 1 to 1, and he has no reason to lose. There is no reason to worry about dying in battle.

At the moment when the two hundred people who attacked Li Kui appeared in sight, he had already regarded Li Kui as his adult exploits. I didn't listen to any persuasion at all.

"Golmud, take the guards on the horse!"

"Young master, please follow me, I will protect your safety."

"No, I don't."

After speaking, the young nobleman jumped on his war horse and came in the direction of Li Kui. At the same time, after Li Kui bypassed Tuliangzi, he came to a gentle slope, although he was not good at cavalry combat.

Well...... It should be that he has never had experience in cavalry combat, but it does not prevent him from knowing some common knowledge of cavalry combat, such as that a dive attack will give cavalry a greater speed and advantage than a vertical attack. The former has an absolute advantage. This is not a street fight, even if Li Kui is a big man, he will not be arrogant enough to give up his advantages on the battlefield and choose inferior means of attack.

After all, it is a battlefield, life and death are in a thought, and he can't help but be arrogant.

Li Yun tightened the Pu knife in his hand, although the cavalry behind him had been trained for many days, they were really lost on the battlefield, and they were all inexperienced lambs. Fortunately, the lamb was carried by a fierce tiger, and it also found some blood, as long as he saw Li Kui's resolute and upright back, it gave the soldiers great comfort and confidence.

Li Kui got on the horse, turned back to Li Yun and said, "Sharp Arrow Formation!" ”

The Blade Formation is Li Kui's favorite formation, this formation is invincible in Li Kui's hands, whether it is in the counterinsurgency in Yingzhou, or going to the cottage to eat black, he likes this offensive formation very much. It's just that most of the time the sharp arrow formation can't be placed, so he can only take Li Yun to rush forward with his head buried.

Even so, Li Kui was not injured.

And now, with two hundred strictly trained cavalry behind him, it is already an unprecedented advantage. It may also be a supply army of the party's people, or perhaps some unruly servant army, and he is more confident that he can settle the battle within one or two charges. After all, he, Shi Wengong and Li Yun had dared to attack a rebel army of several hundred people before, and if the number was equal, it would be a shame if they didn't dare to rush.

Besides, after dealing with the party members, there are still thousands of war horses hidden in the valley for him to rob, and he is not willing to delay it until after dark.

If it was really a black light to launch an attack, Li Kui would naturally be fine, but it would be difficult for others to say.

Li Yun comprehended, raised his hand and signaled the army behind him to open a sharp formation.

If you let these horse troops in front of the palace charge on weekdays, it will be very difficult. But when Li Kui appeared at the front of the Blade Array, all the nervousness and hesitation disappeared.

Who is Li Kui?

The palace is a test flower, and the master of the Jinshi is the eighth classic.

If Li Kui took the lead in the charge, the forbidden army, as a military man, would still be timid, and even they would look down on themselves. People live for one breath, and this breath must be fought for by oneself.

Seeing Li Kui get on his horse and prepare to charge, the young party nobleman was still in the mood and smiled at the tall man Golmud beside him: "Looking at this Song army has some ability. ”

I don't know if I have the ability, but I definitely have the courage.

"Young master, I still suggest that you supervise the battle in the back, Golmud will kill the leader of the Song army on the opposite side to the young master."

"No, the eaglet always has to face the sky, and it can't always live under its wings."

The two sides were on the verge of breaking out, almost at the same time. Li Kui raised the three-pointed and two-edged divine blade in his hand and shouted, "Victory!" ”

"Victory, victory!"

"Kill!"

And the party members also began to urge the war horse to trot up at the moment when the young man fell. The speed went from slow to fast, and soon the sound of the horse's sprinting hooves came like rolling thunder.

When he didn't sprint, Li Kui was quite calm. But when the enemy got closer and closer to him, and he could even see the hideous expression of the other party, the blood in his body seemed to burn.

One hundred zhang.

Fifty zhang.

Ten zhang.

"Kill!"

Finally, when the two armies were about to collide head-on, Li Kui suddenly raised his hand, and three iron eggs were shot out, and the sound of whizzing wind rushed into the ranks of the party members, causing several screams. As a warrior of the party members, Golmud's face was gloomy and he scolded angrily: "Insidious Song people! ”

The scimitar in his hand was gripped tighter. Golmud bumped into Li Kui head-on.

Unlike the scimitar, Li Kui had a long-handled weapon in his hand, and it was definitely not appropriate to use a chop, so he used a more labor-saving method, half-holding it as a stabbing shape.

At the moment when the two armies clashed, the three-pointed and two-edged divine blade in Li Kui's hand suddenly retracted after colliding with an unlucky party member, and danced like a circle of light shrouded in silver light, enveloping the seven or eight party members in front of him.

Puff puff

The sound of slashing was rapid and close, and at the moment when Golmud gritted his teeth and rushed forward, the screams were already heard. At this time, Li Kui picked up the three-pointed and two-edged blade, and his strength and sprinting speed fell directly above Golmud's head.

The Song cavalry, which was thought to be easy to deal with, surprised Golmud at the moment when the two armies collided, and they were masters. Especially after Li Kui killed the three of them at a gallop, he still had the strength to shroud Golmud under the attack, and the three-pointed and two-edged blades went straight to the top of Golmud's head. Golmud yelled angrily, "Open it for me!" ”
