The thief general Xu Huang couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, feeling more and more cold in the cold winter. Although the flag officer's martial arts are far inferior to his own, he is also a strong general in the army, otherwise he would not be favored by himself. However, in the past, there must have been a brave man who won in every battle, but today, when faced with a dozen officers and soldiers, he is killed without even having the strength to fight back, what a joke it is.

But this happened right in front of my eyes, and I had to believe it even if I didn't believe it.

Xu Huang thought about it, the soldiers of Nashi Taiyuan County reacted quickly, responded properly, and closely coordinated the attacks from far and near, ten people were like one person, and it was not difficult to kill one general. Even if he charges the battle himself, he is afraid that he can only protect himself and is unable to kill the enemy.

People in the world often say that there are 100 enemies and 10,000 enemies, and they also know that their martial arts are strong, and only in the chaotic army, the bravery of 100 enemies and 10,000 enemies can be revealed. In the face of the closely coordinated elite, it is very difficult to be an enemy of ten people. Fortunately, Fang Cai did not charge the battle himself, otherwise he would have been injured.

Just as Xu Huang was thinking, the thirty cavalry guards had already returned defeated. Thirty-one horsemen when they went and less than ten horsemen when they returned, but there were no casualties among the Taiyuan soldiers. This result was something Xu Huang didn't expect at first, but it was also a matter of course.

Xu Huang couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw the Taiyuan County soldiers and guards stationed in front of several huge rocks, quickly arranging a battle formation of more than 100 people at a dizzying speed. It turned out that the chaos of the Taiyuan soldiers' initial formation was actually a show for themselves. The battle formation of these 100 people can be arranged in just a moment, and I thought they were just ordinary elites, but I didn't expect that this Taiyuan army was actually one of the most elite divisions in the world.

Xu Huang became more and more curious about this county soldier, and he also admired the commander of this county soldier more and more, to be able to train such an elite soldier, this general must be a great famous general, but he has not yet become famous at this time.

Through today's tricks, Xu Huang knew that his ability to command troops was far inferior to this person, "This general is surnamed Li, right?" I wonder if there is an opportunity to talk to him about military affairs? ”

At this time, the right side of the cavalry has arrived in front of the battle to listen to the order, Xu Huang will throw the flag casually, and his own soldiers will come forward to catch it. Xu Huang pointed to the leader of the rear army thieves and said: "The officers and soldiers of this team can be blocked, and I don't blame you if you can't stop you." I will go to the brigade that pursues the officers, and you can chase after you with the rear infantry. After saying that, he led a hundred horsemen and horses to hurriedly chase in the northeast direction.

Li Ping's army had only walked for a moment, and according to the marching speed of the foot soldiers, he also held three hundred unmoraled prisoners, who could only travel four or five miles at most. Xu Huang pursued at this time, and he could be chased seven miles away.

However, Xu Huang led the hundred horsemen to hurry away, but only three miles away, he saw the officers and soldiers led by Li Ping guarding the danger, and the avenue was full of felled trees and dead branches. It turned out that Li Ping's temporary retreat was just to avoid the open place, come to a narrow place to replenish his strength, and then fight the thief army. This mitigates the advantages of a large number of thieves and a large number of cavalry.

Xu Huang was overjoyed, and shouted with his hand: "I am the chief general of this Baibo Army, Xu Huang Xu Gongming, and I would like to invite you and other Taiyuan county generals to come and talk." ”

Li Ping hesitated for a while, and then led the twenty cavalry guards to rush out and shouted: "I am the marquis of the soldiers of this Qu County, Li Ping is also, and you have surrendered when you come with light cavalry." ”

"No, no." Xu Huang smiled and asked: "Your soldiers are rare in the world, they are like arm-to-arm commands, and there is no dissatisfaction between gathering and dispersing, and the elite degree can be called unparalleled in the world, I don't know if it was trained by Li Junhou himself." ”

Li Ping felt a little strange, how could there be an enemy who appreciated the opponent's soldiers in front of the battle. However, the young age of this thief still surprised Li Ping for a while. Instead of fighting against him, he felt that he was not an ordinary thief, and over time, this thief became a giant thief.

However, the matter asked is not a big deal, but it will also give He Bai a name, so Li Ping replied honestly: "It is not practiced by me, but by the master of my family, Taiyuan Governor He Duwei." ”

Xu Huang sighed: "It turned out to be He Tianming, the governor of Taiyuan, when Xu Huang was far away in Hedong, he had already heard that he broke the white wave general Li Le in Fenshui, but I didn't know that he had such a talent." I don't know if Li Junhou can invite He Duwei to come to Zi's to talk about it? ”

Li Ping didn't know what Xu Huang meant in his heart, and when he saw that Xu Huang was going too far, he couldn't help but be angry: "It's easy for you to see my lord, just get off the horse and surrender quickly." If not, I will personally arrest you and escort you to Jinyang City to meet the lord. ”

Xu Huang shook his head and said noncommittally: "If you want Xu Huang to surrender, it's simple, you and I will fight alone in front of this formation." If you are defeated, Xu Huang will surrender immediately. If I am victorious, you only need to invite He Tianming, the governor of Taiyuan, to come for a while. ”

Li Ping was furious, he couldn't even beat himself as a stupid thief, but he still wanted to see his uncle and father-in-law, which was really unreasonable. When Li Ping was young, he was also a brave man, and he wanted to ride forward alone to capture Xu Huang's thief. But thinking that he is now the main general of the army of thieves all the way, there are more than 500 people under his command who have obeyed orders, but they must not be fooled.

Then he cried out, "It is not difficult for you to see my lord, but if you defeat my tribe, my lord will come to conquer you." ”

After hearing this, Xu Huang nodded again and again, and responded: "Yes, yes." Guard, let's go and see if the foot soldiers of the rear team have been found? ”

One of the guards obeyed the order, and soon heard the sound of marching in the rear, and turned to look at it, but it was the rear guard of the Taiyuan county soldiers who retreated, and Xu Huang's rear army failed to contain them after all.

The guard saw that Xu Huang's hundred horsemen were intercepting in front of him, so he cautiously retreated forward along the narrow edge. Xu Huang didn't lead the troops to block it, and watched the guard retreat into the lodging Damu Formation and return to the team. Not long after, most of the rear army of the thief army came in unison, densely packed with 1,700 people.

Li Ping couldn't help but gasp when he saw it, but this thief army was different from the previous thief army, only to see that this thief army was all in armor, well-armed, and rigorous and meticulous. The eyes are cold and fierce, and the momentum is silent and suppressive, just like a group of warriors who regard death as home, rather than ordinary thieves. Could it be that the previous thief elite has not yet come out, and there is still something that cannot be retained? Li Ping became more and more jealous of this thief.

The thief Xu Huang ran back to the army, re-established the banner of Xu Zi in the main formation of the Chinese army, and shouted: "Where is the forward military marquis Xu Biao?" ”

A fierce thief in heavy armor will come out on his back and respond, "My subordinates are here." ”

Xu Huang said: "Order you to lead 400 troops and break through the Taiyuan County soldiers' fortress from the front." ”

Xu Biao bowed and said, "Order." After saying that, the thief general Xu Biao returned to the battle to gather the soldiers, and in a short time, there were 400 elite soldiers in leather armor, carrying a ring knife on the left side, a longbow on the right, and holding a spear.

Because the place chosen by Li Ping has mountains and rocks and dense forests on the left, steep slopes and rivers on the right, and there is only a flat road of more than 20 zhang in the middle, which can only be used by dozens of people to go hand in hand. So the thief ordered Xu Biao to divide his soldiers into eight columns, each with fifty people. The first two columns each marched forward with wooden shields, the last three marched with bows, and the last three columns slowly stepped forward with spears in their right hands and swords in their left hands. Xu Biao was in the first column.

Li Ping's subordinate ordered the left flank to defend the danger, the right flank to support, the Chinese army to reserve, and the rear guard to replenish his strength in nervous eating. Just when the thief general Xu Biao began to attack, the Chinese army general hurriedly came to say:

"Junhou, I asked clearly, this thief Xu Huang was originally a small official in Hedong, and then he was held hostage by the white wave thief, and he had to take refuge in the white wave thief Shuai Yang Feng. Because he was brave and good at fighting, he was appointed by Yang Feng as a military marquis under his command, commanding 300 soldiers. After repeatedly breaking the imperial army, he was regarded as a confidant by Yang Fengyi, so he was appointed as the military commander. This time, he and another army, Sima Yang Ge, commanded 2,000 troops to Taiyuan County, which was that Yang Feng intended to invade on a large scale, so he sent two generals to investigate Taiyuan's defense. The thieves that our army fought with before were just the thieves he had newly recruited, not the elite of his headquarters. In front of him, Fang is the elite of his headquarters. ”

Li Ping took a breath and said heavily: "I didn't expect the white wave thief to develop so strong in Hedong. ”

The general of the Chinese army nodded and replied: "Yes, it is said that the court has sent troops many times, but it cannot control the thieves, but it has been broken by the thieves." Weapons and armor are mostly obtained by thieves, so thieves are equipped with Japanese spirits. Hearing that the court was planning to summon the Xiliang army to Hedong to suppress the thieves, the Xiliang army was stronger than the world, Yang Feng was worried, so he sent Xu Huang and Yang Ge to Taiyuan to explore the way to seek a way out. ”

Li Ping clapped his hands fiercely and said: "Bai Bo Yang Feng is afraid of the Xiliang soldiers, so today our army will also make him afraid." When he thought of the Taiyuan soldiers, he felt a chill, and he didn't dare to take half a step into Taiyuan easily. The herald, this time it must be a good life to summon the white wave thief to be. ”

The sound of the war drums of the thief army sounded, and two hundred and fifty thieves marched towards the Taiyuan County soldiers with shields and bows. Li Ping looked at the surging thieves, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried in his heart. Although the Taiyuan soldiers looked fine, they were actually only new soldiers who had been practicing for less than two months. Although there were several months of bloody battles with the Southern Xiongnu, they were ruled by others, not by their uncle. Therefore, my uncle's tactics are not too clear to me, and even the generals and soldiers are not too understanding.

With unfamiliar tactics, the enemy is a fierce thief, and he is afraid that his own army will not be able to win. When Li Pingsi arrived here, he hurriedly ordered the Chuanqi to send a message to He Bai again, informing him of the current battle situation of the Zi clan and his own worries. However, the thief is close at hand, and even if he is worried, he has nothing to do. I had to settle down and watch the battle seriously.

The soldiers of Taiyuan County have only been in the army for half a year, and there are only one or two kinds of weapons to practice. Therefore, there are still many spear and pistols in a tun, but there are not many archers who are difficult to train. Seeing the thieves rolling in, the twenty-seven archers on the left flank kept shooting arrows in their hands, but they were of no use to the thieves.

Li Ping had no choice but to order the archers of Situn to gather together again and shoot arrows at the thieves. The density of arrows of hundreds of archers finally caused a lot of damage to the thieves. However, three columns of thieves, one hundred and fifty archers, immediately launched a counterattack in the intervening space.

The sharp arrows like a storm fell on the heads of the Taiyuan soldiers, and the Taiyuan soldiers finally tasted the feelings of the thieves before. They set up shields or hid under large trees. Arrows rained down, numb the shieldman's arm and fly large sawdust from his hiding body.

The county soldiers had few archers, and they were suppressed after a short time and couldn't raise their heads. Seeing that the thieves were about to rush up, the left wing general had to order to prepare for hand-to-hand combat.
