The soldiers of the Zhongtang Mansion next to him were not surprised to see their colleagues killed, because these veterans with bloody knives were already accustomed to death, and they knew very well that there was no reason for immortals in war? Not to mention that these dozen or so soldiers had violated military orders and went out to die, so they had no way to say anything.

It turned out that when these soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who rushed out were shot and killed, more than a dozen people came out of the cavalry, galloped to the side of the corpse, jumped off the horse, and actually cut off the ears on the corpse, and proudly threw them into the saddlebag next to them.

In the Central Plains culture, what is particular about the parents of the body and skin cannot be injured and destroyed at will, not to mention that the dead are the greatest, and insulting the corpse has always been to provoke public indignation! Under such circumstances, the group of people in the Tang Army of the Central Tang Dynasty immediately became full of voices and the crowd was surging, and they immediately separated into an array, and finally they still maintained a trace of sanity, knowing that they were sending them to death if they ran out directly, and they saw a fierce general roaring and leading twenty or thirty horsemen to rush out, and directly take these dozens of cavalry on the opposite side!

Although the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were mainly infantry, the generals still had their own mounts, and when they went out to fight, there were more than 100 cavalry guards around them, what did these people do? In case the situation is not right during the war, it is used to protect the main general to fight out of the encirclement.

At this time, as soon as this Liu Leopard came out of the horse, the Zhongtang armies saw that within a radius of a few hundred meters, there were fifty or sixty Northern Qi cavalry on the opposite side, obviously the number of both sides was about the same, and it could even be said that they had to occupy an advantage. It's definitely better than the other party's ordinary creeps.

Who knows, after Liu Leopard rushed out with people, the opposite side initially seemed to see the general appear, and he was stunned all of a sudden, and immediately dispersed, Liu Leopard and others were also very hateful, staring at the few people who cut off their ears and chasing after them, Liu Leopard The horses under their crotch are full of physical strength, so the sudden explosiveness must be stronger than the other party, and the distance between the two is rapidly approaching.

However, after about three or four hundred steps. The chasing cavalry suddenly turned around and stood upright from the horse, and then saw that the longbow in the hand of the cavalry led by him was actually very special, straight like a phoenix flying, and after it appeared, it actually faintly gave people a feeling that the vitality of heaven and earth was taking this longbow as the core, slowly circulating, and then he loosened the bowstring. There was an indescribable pain in the eardrums of people within a radius of 100 feet, as if they were about to tear.

This time, the horse was an arrow, and it was a feeling of earth-shattering!!

However, Liu Leopard is also a fierce general who has fought for many years, and he actually pulled the reins fiercely when the opponent let go. Immediately, I saw a long hiss from the mount under the crotch, and then the person stood up, and the arrow shot by the other party was also like a streamer, which was blocked by the neck of the mount under Liu Leopard's crotch. Then he flew towards the rear with men and horses.

Seeing this scene, the tense mood of the people in the Tang Dynasty was relaxed, and at this time, the guards around Liu Leopard were already shocked and angry. Screaming wildly, they rode their horses and rushed back, bringing them up from the ground, but they only realized at this time that they had been lured by those Northern Qi cavalry to come to Taiwai, three or four hundred steps away from the main formation.

At this time, needless to say, those feints of the Northern Qi cavalry have already chased after them on horseback, and the most vicious thing is that the archery skills shown by these people before are only partial, and their riding and shooting at high speed at this time are also amazingly accurate, and it can be said that they have reached the level of five out of ten shots.

And these people are not aiming at people, they are the horses of Liu Leopard's group of escapees!!

There is a saying called shooting people first shoot horses, capture thieves first capture kings, just this small-scale battle, it is a perfect interpretation of the definition of this sentence, originally the horses are also covered by buffalo leather armor, at the same time, the vitality of horses is also very strong, even if they are shot by arrows, often because of the severe pain will run faster! However, these in the Northern Qi cavalry pursuit, the horses neighed to the ground, enough to show that these people are not only perfect in archery, but also know the weaknesses of horses.

Finally, the guards who protected Liu Leopard's side were peeled off layer by layer as if they were bamboo shoots peeling their shells, and they fell off their horses one after another, and finally, even the horse carrying Liu Leopard let out a miserable neigh, and fell to the ground with a soft front hoove.

More than ten guards who had fled far away glanced at each other, and their faces showed a miserable look, and then reined in the horse, drew their knives, and rushed back, the military discipline of the Tang Dynasty was strict, they were the pro-soldiers and tooth generals, and they could usually be said to eat the main general, and use the main general, but once they went into battle, the main general died in front of them, and their fate was also extremely miserable

Of course, the fate of these more than ten guards will not be much better than that of Liu Leopard, at this time, the Tang Army who witnessed this battle can be said to be completely stunned, what is the origin of this group of people in front of them, and the deduction of riding and shooting under their hands can only be described by art, is it the legendary snake swallowing guard??!!

This kind of cavalry and archery level is already remarkable that it is estimated that there are more than a dozen people in the Great Inner Forbidden Army in the Middle and Tang Dynasty, but these more than 50 horsemen in front of him seem to have the same level as them! What kind of monster is this? When you encounter such an enemy and rush out directly, isn't it a lantern in the latrine-looking for death?

This time, no one in the Central Tang Army dared to use cavalry to go-for-tat, but directly dispatched a phalanx of 400 government soldiers to save people, however, the government soldiers were originally infantry troops, or wearing armor and standing shields to advance, while maintaining a basic formation, and at the same time carefully dodging possible arrow clusters, it is obvious that the arrogance of the "Lao Tzu is the first in the world" before the Tang Dynasty soldiers has been suppressed to the point that nothing remains.

From this, it can also be deduced the speed of this rescue force, so when they arrived two or three hundred steps away, they could only sigh at the dead corpses whose ears had been cut off all over the ground, and as for Liu Leopard, who did not know life and death, he was already swept away.

Half an hour later, Lu Yu was discussing with a cadre in the big tent. Suddenly, an attendant came in to give a message, because this attendant came in directly with a message, so several generals present at the meeting could hear it clearly, and Luo Manzi, a newly promoted general whom Lu Yu appreciated the most, jumped up all of a sudden, as if the soles of his feet had been stabbed by a knife, and stared at the bull-like eyes and exclaimed:

"What? The group of grassland barbarians brought by General Manager Lin actually captured a deputy general of the Central Tang Army?"

Lu Yu was not too surprised when he heard this, Lin Fengjin had a group of guards recruited on the grassland by his side who were very powerful, almost all of them were archers, and he had known about this matter for a long time.

And these people are outlaws, and they usually have nothing to do when they are idle. They are also happy to participate in the war, but they do not want military merit, but after killing people, they will cut off the ears of the enemy and use them to sell them at the quartermaster office for money. Because this matter involved Lin Fengjin, the Quartermaster Department also specially asked Lu Yu, mainly because he was afraid that there would be something to kill the good and take the merit, but Lu Yu had personally dealt with the guards around Lin Fengjin in the battle of Yaocheng, so he knew the conduct of these people very well. It's pretty straightforward.

At this time, another attendant came, and came in at a trot, quite a little breathless. And this respite is still because of excitement, not physical exertion:

The lieutenant general who was captured has already been identified, and it is Liu Leopard, a famous fierce general in the Chinese and Tang Army. This person is a generational general, and it is very likely that he knows some of the secret techniques of military training in the Tang Dynasty!

This time, even Lu Yu stood up all of a sudden. Suddenly moved!

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are actually sword and shield soldiers, why can they all be famous among the five countries? Are the other four countries really so poor that they don't even have the resources to build a sword and shield soldier? Of course not, because the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are created with the secret art of military training, which covers the soldiers' daily life, residence, eating, drinking, and Lazar, as well as the method of building the shield, the material ratio of the steel knife held in the hand, etc., it seems that only some details are paid attention to, but the sand is formed into a tower, and the armpit is gathered into a fur, it is these many details that have piled up the prestige of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty!

The rest of the four countries, it can be said that they are naturally trying to get the secret skills of the soldiers of the Central Tang Dynasty, but the secret techniques they get are all fragmented, and there is no lack of false information released by the Middle Tang Dynasty, even if it is implemented, the effect of the sword and shield soldiers that have been painstakingly made is not good.

Lu Yu, as the king of a country, of course, also covets the strong combat power of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, if he can really restore the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in Northern Qi, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are responsible for defense and attack, and the snake swallowing army is if the flames sweep through the main attack, then it is really a natural match, and it can be regarded as the foundation of the emperor.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand the importance of Liu Leopard to Lu Yu after he was captured alive, which can be said to be a solid stepping stone for Lu Yu to the position of emperor. Therefore, Lu Yu immediately said:

"Hurry up and bring someone in for me. ”

However, the attendant showed a very embarrassed look on his face, and then said with a wry smile:

"Your Majesty, firstly, Liu Leopard was hit by an arrow in the chest, this arrow pierced very deeply, it is estimated that it has affected the internal organs, and he is already angry and dying, in such a situation, if he is called for questioning, it is estimated that he will not be able to ask half a word. ”

Lu Yu was also nervous when he heard this, and immediately said loudly:

"This man can't die! I'll be sent a military doctor right away."

The squire's expression became even more embarrassed, and he smiled bitterly:

"This is the second question, this Liu Leopard was caught by the people around Mr. Lin, and they shouted, saying that this person is a big official, and he can't be treated in ordinary ways, at least he has to take three hundred taels of silver, and a foal is willing to change. ”

Lu Yu laughed angrily:

"This kind of thing also needs to be asked to me? Could it be that the men of the military quartermaster are full of water in their heads, and they can't be the master of three hundred taels of silver? Three thousand taels of silver may be for them. ”

This squire is embarrassed:

"It's not a matter of silver, it's that the foals that those steppe barbarians fancy are the blood of Dragonman. ”

The dragon mane is no one else, it is Lu Yu who gave the new title of Mr. Red Demon Ma under the crotch, saying that this demon horse has been in the past two years, and suddenly I don't know why, I am very happy, it seems that the estrus period has arrived, and I began to be a happy mare. As soon as this kind of thing happens, it must be that everyone in Yedu is in a hurry to "pay tribute" to Mr. Hong.

In the end, it was a mare in Lu Yu's own stable who got the moon near the water and the floor first, and the cubs were carried in his belly, and three cubs were born three months ago, and they were born alive and jumping, and the mare's milk was not enough to drink, and he had to lead six or seven additional ewes to the top.

The three ponies were full of spirit, but for some reason, Mr. Red took a look at them, and then stopped paying attention. Perhaps he was not satisfied with the three offspring, and even when the three foals tried to lean in front of him, they immediately bared their teeth and hoofed.

But even so, Lu Yu also cherished these three little foals, needless to say, after these three little guys grow up, they must be extremely powerful horses, probably because these grassland guards around Lin Fengjin are naturally interested in horses, so they have already seen the right eye.

Lu Yu pondered for a while and said:

"You go and see what Liu Leopard's injuries are, and then come back to me. ”

Soon. The attendant reported that Liu Leopard's wound was on the right chest, but an arrow wound, and that the arrow had first pierced the neck of Liu Leopard's mount. Then it penetrated his armor and finally penetrated into his chest, so that his right lung was severely damaged, and he kept coughing up blood. However, the medical officer said that because it was not the heart, the brain was injured and died. So the chance of surviving is still very good, but there is a great possibility that he will be out of breath when he moves in the future, and it is basically impossible for the whole person to lead the army to fight again.

Lu Yu's fierce generals are like clouds, and they don't care about such a person, the key is to make Liu Leopard immortal, and he wants to take out the things in his brain, and when he heard the words of the medical officer, he simply clapped and said:

"I changed with these steppe people, and told them that it could only be changed for the sake of their master's face. ”

Since Lu Yu nodded, then this deal was naturally reached quite quickly, so soon, Liu Leopard, who had already been treated, was carried in front of Lu Yu, although Liu Leopard's eyes were closed at this time, his face was blue and gray, and he looked dying without saying a word, and there was no way to connect with the roaring and vicious general, but the armor on his body and the weapons he used betrayed his identity.

After seeing Liu Leopard, Lu Yu didn't say anything, just soothed him with a few words, telling him that victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and he has known his name for a long time, and now he doesn't have to think about it, he can recuperate with peace of mind, although Liu Leopard didn't speak, but the hands holding the stretcher next to him showed that his heart was not calm, and he was trembling slightly.

After Liu Leopard was carried down, someone immediately stood up to congratulate Lu Yu, because at this time, anyone could see that the most worrying situation was that this Liu Leopard had a violent personality, and after being caught, he would bite his tongue and commit suicide at the first opportunity.

But now it seems that this situation is unlikely to happen, if this Liu Leopard really has the heart to die, he will simply give up the treatment, hitting the wall, biting the tongue and other methods can be used, if you really can't do it, according to the rumors of this Liu Leopard, most of them will scold Lu Yu as soon as they meet, and even hurt people, and they will definitely not make such a lifeless appearance.

There are many roots in this, but it must be said that it has a great relationship with the situation encountered by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty recently, at this time, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are like a majestic beast that has fallen into a trap and is covered in bruises, constantly roaring loudly and helplessly, struggling desperately but in vain.

The soldiers below are okay, but the generals who are relatively broad-minded have already sensed the coming of the end of the road ahead, and the most terrible thing is that in this situation in front of them, the tactics adopted by the other party are indeed too despicable and shameless, or it can be said that they restrained the fighting style of the Tang Army

For example, even if there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of you, as long as you go out, you can take your life to make a hard trip, to put it mildly, even if the other party has thousands of troops, and you know that you are invincible, you can hit it hard, and before Lao Tzu dies, you have to tear a piece of flesh and blood in your mouth.

The problem is that at this time, the tactics of the Northern Qi army are shameless to the extreme, as if the spider web is wrapped up layer by layer, if you advance, he will retreat, and it is clear that your two-legged can not run on four legs, if you retreat, he will die shamelessly as if it is kraft candy sticking up, discerning people have long seen it, this tactic is to completely pinch the initiative of the war in their hands, when to start a war, where to start a war It can be said that it is completely up to others, such a battle can be said to be lost before half of it is fought!

Before Lu Yu and others still did not have a deep grasp of the situation at this time, after all, although the battle outside Zuoliu City was said to be a duzi, but the strong combat power of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty was also staggering, in the face of the deep ditch fence, there were two wings of cavalry next to the attack, and the front was also regarded as the regular army of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty put out a large phalanx, and the hard flat push crushed the past, no matter how you resisted and resisted, it was useless, such resolute, calm, domineering, even I always felt that "Lao Tzu is the first in the world" The elite of the Snake Devouring Army is also surprisingly not saying anything to defeat it head-on.
