Chapter 42 The two armies face off against Huangshi Slope, each with its own victories and defeats, and there is a lot of blood

Huangshi Slope, with a complex geographical location, has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, although it is a little worse than the geographical location of a ghost town, but it is also a good place for fighting.

Yeluxiong did not rush into Huangshipo, but 80,000 soldiers Chen Bing and Huangshipo ten miles away, the same Dongyue ancient country's first general Huang Dingbang also stationed a large army in Huangshipo ten miles away, this is many years ago Dongyue and Western Chu signed a treaty, with the ghost city and Huangshipo as the boundary, the two countries do not cross the border with each other.

Different from the previous bluff, this time the Western Chu Empire obviously moved the real character, in the past it was a simple march tent outside the Huangshi Slope, but this time the Western Chu Empire arrived at the boundary of the Huangshi Slope, directly began to open the mountain to quarry, cut down wood and build a city, and with the arrival of Yeluxiong, the Western Chu Empire continued to send various materials to the Huangshi Slope, it is obvious that the Western Chu Empire is going to fight a protracted war, and occupy the Huangshi Slope first.

After this news reached Huang Dingbang's ears, Huang Dingbang immediately led his troops to Huangshipo and began to call for battle, in an attempt to find out the reality of the Western Chu Empire.

The so-called battlefield called the formation, at the beginning is that each side sent a member of the general to catch and fight, the winning side will be demoralized, the losing side will be demoralized, if the defeated side is not convinced, you can fight again, generally not more than three times, if it is three times, the defeat is more than the victory, then the defeated side will choose Mingjin to withdraw the troops, choose the day to fight again.

To put it bluntly, in fact, every war is fought by the heritage of each country, and in the case of equal strength between the two sides, it is often the winning side that holds out the longest, and of course there will inevitably be surprise troops.

On the slope of Huangshi, Huang Dingbang and Ye Luxiong were only a kilometer apart, and the men and horses on both sides stayed behind each other, Huang Dingbang was wearing a golden chain armor and sat on the back of the horse, and he held a black spear in his hand to hit the horse.

Over there, Yeluxiong naturally knew who the person was coming, so he didn't hesitate at the moment and stepped forward immediately.

Yeluxiong looks dark and burly, under his crotch is a black leopard, in his hand is the double gate commonly used by battlefield generals, he is also wearing armor, but compared to Huang Dingbang's golden yellow, his armor is much more low-key, the black armor with the double gate of Montenegro, plus a black leopard, will set off the majesty of Yeluxiong's whole person.

The leopard under his crotch is obviously not an ordinary leopard, the leopard is much taller than the average leopard, Yeluxiong's weight plus his whole body equipment, the weight of a body is no less than five hundred catties, and the weight of five hundred catties is pressed on the black leopard as if there is nothing, which does not affect his actions at all.

It stands to reason that ordinary horses will avoid leopards and tigers when they see them, but the red horse under Huang Dingbang's crotch is not afraid at all, but snorts at the black leopard with a slight provocation.

"Ye Luxiong, you old man even dare to come out and lead troops to fight!" Huang Dingbang laughed and spoke, his tone full of sarcasm.

Ye Luxiong said disappreliantly: "Huang Dingbang, when Lao Tzu and your father were fighting, you were still playing with mud!"

Huang Dingbang shook his head when he heard this: "You old guy, you are still out to lead troops to fight at this age, is it because there is no one in the Western Chu Empire?"

"I don't know until anyone has ever fought. Ye Luxiong didn't talk nonsense with Huang Dingbang, and directly issued a war letter.

Huang Dingbang grinned and said: "The old general is refreshing, or the old rules, two wins in three games?"

Ye Luxiong nodded: "Two wins in three games, and the loser retreats for ten miles." ”

"Okay, a word is a certainty!" Huang Dingbang was full of confidence and was not afraid of Yeluxiong at all.

From the beginning of seeing Yeluxiong, Huang Dingbang changed three titles in a row, from 'Lao'er' to 'Old General' changed again and again, Yeluxiong didn't care, and directly prepared to start the fight.

The Western Chu Empire and the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom have not fought for many years, but the two sides are no strangers to each other, in addition to not knowing the details of the other party's generals, the general information still knows that the reason why the two sides did not go to war directly this time is also to compete and explore the strength of the other party, so Huang Dingbang and Ye Luxiong hit it off very happily.

After Yeluxiong returned to the camp of Western Chu, a young man with a black spear stepped forward and shouted: "Yeluqi of the Western Chu Empire, who dares to fight?"

"General, let me go, this kid is too rampant. ”

"General, let me teach this little cub a lesson, it's too fucking arrogant. ”

Huang Dingbang shook his head: "The people sent by the first battle of Western Chu must not be simple people, and we must not be careless." ”

"What the general said is extremely true, Yeluqi's name is recorded in Dongyue, this person is a martial arts wizard, but in the past two years, he has a combat power comparable to a first-class master, and he is immediately kung fu, and ordinary people are not opponents. An officer who looked like a marching staff officer spoke.

"Sima, who do you think can win this battle?" Huang Dingbang asked indifferently, seemingly asking, but in fact, he already had the answer in his heart, one of the ways of the emperor is to be good at discovering the thinking ability of his subordinates.

Sima Ning thought for a while and said: "General, the winner of this competition is only the number of hands, but if you want to win easily, you can't be crazy!"

"Is it a bit overkill to let Chu Mad fight in the first battle?" Huang Dingbang couldn't help but ask.

Chu Mad is the first fierce general he sits down, if Chu Mad loses, then the next battle can be suspended, the young Yeluqi on the opposite side he has already heard of, if Chu Mad is defeated in the hands of Yeluqi, then he Dongyue really has no chance of winning.

Dongyue is not better than Western Chu, although the two countries are neighbors, but the people's customs are very large, Western Chu is located in a remote area, the environment is harsh, resulting in the people of Western Chu are fierce, usually not afraid of death.

Dongyue's martial arts are extremely victorious, but there are still more than half of the people who do not have the opportunity to practice martial arts, but Xichu is different, they go up to the officials and dignitaries, down to the peddlers and pawns, regardless of men, women and children, all of them have practiced martial arts, and it is common for them to fight and kill people in violent battles.

And because of the extremely cold geographical environment of the Western Chu Empire, most of the people in the Western Chu Empire are tall and burly, and they are fierce and fierce.

It's just that because of the poor resources of Western Chu, the top combat power of Western Chu in recent years is extremely poor, and it is because Western Chu has only been in a corner of peace for decades, and has never taken the initiative to wage war against Dongyue, this time it is the first time that Western Chu has taken the initiative to wage war against Dongyue, and the intention is very obvious, that is, to fight a protracted war.

Xi Chu's attitude was suddenly so tough, in fact, the reason was very simple, but few people knew this reason, even Huang Dingbang, as the first general of the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom, was not qualified to know this matter with his status, so he was not afraid of facing Yeluxiong.

"General doesn't need to think about it, Chu Mad will win this battle!" Sima Ning said with a smile, his tone full of confidence.

Huang Dingbang is not a man without a city, Western Chu suddenly started a war this time, and the first batch of troops reached 100,000 people, and the veteran Yeluxiong was enabled, and there were follow-up reinforcements from the Western Chu Empire to Huangshi Slope, and the wolf ambition of the Western Chu Empire can be imagined.

However, Yeluxiong's construction of fortifications in Huangshipo made him a little puzzled, because he planned to figure out the true purpose of Xichu.

"Sima, pass Li Meng to come. The corners of Huang Dingbang's mouth outlined a smile, and his tone was firm.

"The last general, Li Meng, meet the general. A tall, armoured young man knelt on one knee and spoke in a cold and respectful tone.

Huang Dingbang nodded with satisfaction: "Li Meng, you go to this battle, you can only lose but not win!"

Everyone showed a look of surprise, but they didn't dare to say anything more about Huang Dingbang's decision.

"The last general commands!" the young man stood up respectfully, not asking the reason at all.

After the two sides finished arraying, Li Meng rode a black horse and appeared opposite Yeluqi with a nine-ring machete: "Dongyue, Li Meng!"

The simple and direct four words popped out of Li Meng's mouth, and the nine-ring big knife in his hand brought a touch of silver light in the cold wind and slashed towards Yeluqi.

Yeluqi snorted coldly, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the spear in his hand jumped, easily dodging Li Meng's attack, Li Meng didn't care, immediately fought with his legs, sat down and understood the black horse, and immediately ran on the battlefield. schoolgirl

A long soldier and a short blade, the two of them can be sent out to participate in the first battle, it is obvious that they are not simple roles, don't look at Li Meng's words, but he is clear-minded, Huang Dingbang's intentions He understands very well, only defeat is not allowed to win, defeat is okay, but it can't be defeated too obviously, so as soon as he came on the field, Li Meng chose to fight.

No way, his nine-ring broadsword is a short soldier, and he doesn't have an advantage at all in horse warfare, if it is a foot battle, then Li Meng's nine-ring broadsword is definitely a big killer on the battlefield, ordinary people don't dare to take it lightly, don't look at his tall and slender figure, but his strength is amazing.

Of course, Huang Dingbang chose Li Meng to be the first to fight, naturally he has his thoughts, although Li Meng's horse battle is slightly inferior, but the victory is flexible, and the tacit understanding with the sitting war horse, it is more difficult to win, but if the defeat is not obvious, it is definitely no problem at all.

The people of Xichu are fierce, and their equestrianism is especially powerful!

The spear in Yeluqi's hand roared, and the move could not leave Li Meng's vital point, where Li Meng's war horse ran, his war horse followed closely, and under the absolute superiority of the war horse, Li Meng's situation was precarious.

But Li Meng also took it seriously, a nine-ring broadsword was flashed by the white light of his dance, or slashed or chopped or blocked, and the momentum did not fall at all.

"What is the origin of the young general on the other side?" Yeluxiong saw that Yeluqi couldn't fight for a long time, and asked the people around him.

"General, this person is a dead soldier under Huang Dingbang, he speaks very little, he is low-key, and he has never been known to the outside world. A man beside Yeluxiong frowned.

"This person's reaction doesn't match the news from the inquiry, I'm afraid there is a deception!" Yeluxiong groaned as he stroked his beard.

"The general doesn't need to worry too much, with Yeluqi's combat strength, it is definitely not a problem to win, this will probably be a joke on that kid!" a man in armor said unconcernedly.

Ye Luxiong nodded: "I'm not worried about this, it is estimated that the reason why Huang Dingbang of Dongyue sent this person to fight is that he has long held the idea of defeat, so as to find out my intentions in Xichu." ”

"Huang Dingbang is just a small person in the ancient kingdom of Dongyue, although the strength of the ancient kingdom of Dongyue has increased now, but the real forces of the rivers and lakes do not buy Dongyue's account at all, even if he is a little general who can't get on the stage, even if he knows my intentions of Xichu, what can he do!" the man in armor said disdainfully.

Yeluxiong shook his head: "Lan Feng, you can't say that, don't underestimate the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom, and don't underestimate the Huang Dingbang in front of you, the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom can occupy a country with the strength of one family, and gradually gather the forces of the rivers and lakes, this strength must not be underestimated, once the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom is given enough strength, then at that time, Dongyue will lead a large army to the west, what will my Western Chu Empire use to resist?"

The man in armor is named Wanyan Lanfeng, a member of the Wanyan family, and the royal family of the Western Chu Empire.

After listening to Ye Luxiong's words, Wanyan Lanfeng couldn't help frowning: "The key is that now Dongyue has not completely collected the Jianghu forces in Dongyue's territory, and it has also caused the anger of the heavens and the resentment of the people!"

"Don't underestimate your opponent at any time, there is still the Nangong family behind the ancient kingdom of Dongyue, and there are many wealthy families in the Eastern Imperial City who have the same heart as the ancient kingdom of Dongyue, this Huang Dingbang is from the Huang family, there have been rumors in Dongyue since ancient times, the Huang family general, the ancient family said that it is to face Huang Dingbang must not be underestimated. Jerrychon explained with a smile.

"General Yelu rest assured, I will pay attention to this person. Wanyan Lanfeng pondered for a moment and nodded and said.

Just when Yeluxiong was chatting, the battlefield just divided the winner and loser, Yeluqi stabbed an oblique stab, the spear in his hand stabbed at the war horse that Li Meng sat down, the war horse was stung by the cold wind, frightened, and the body couldn't help but dodge backwards, at this time Li Meng's big knife quickly blocked Yeluqi's spear, who knew that Yeluqi's move was just a false move, the real killing move was shot to his neck at the moment when Li Meng lowered his head to block.

Li Meng couldn't dodge, his moves were old, and it was too late to try to block, plus he was frightened when he sat down on the war horse, and his body jumped forward, Yeluqi's spear directly pierced the belly of the war horse, and the huge force threw the war horse and Li Meng out more than two meters away.

After Li Meng was thrown away with the war horse, his reaction was also very commanding, and he flipped and stood up at the moment he landed, and the big knife in his hand instinctively assumed a blocking posture.

Who knew that at this time, Yeluqi just rushed to Li Meng's side, and the spear in his hand just fell on Li Meng's neck, as long as Li Meng dared to make any move, the spear in Yeluqi's hand would stab out without hesitation.

"You've lost!" Yeluqi sneered and looked at Li Meng.

Li Meng was embarrassed and didn't say a word.

"In the first game, I Dongyue conceded defeat. Naturally, someone behind Huang Dingbang spoke in time, so as not to kill Li Meng by Yeluqi.

"If you lose, you will pay the price!" After speaking, the spear in Yeluqi's hand shook, and Li Meng's left arm fell in response, and the broken arm fell to the ground, blood spilled all over the ground.

Li Menghu's eyes widened, his steel teeth clenched, and he didn't make a sound.

After cutting off Li Meng's arm, Yeluqi withdrew his spear and slightly clamped the horse's belly, and the war horse felt the master's heart and ran quickly on the battlefield.

There was an earth-shattering roar from the side of the Western Chu Empire.

"Xichu Yeluqi, can anyone come to fight?" Yeluqi's voice came from the horseback, and his voice was filled with endless killing aura.

Every general of the Western Chu Empire came out of the endless fighting, and the murderous aura on their bodies was by no means comparable to the soldiers of the Dongyue Ancient Kingdom.

Li Meng picked up the arm that fell on the ground and returned to the camp: "General, your subordinates are defeated!"

Huang Dingbang frowned: "Take Li Meng to heal." ”

"General, this Yeluqi is really not to be underestimated, with Li Meng's strength, he was actually teased by him, and even broke an arm, his intentions can be extremely sinister!" Sima Ning said in a gloomy tone.

"Only hurt but not killed, what a Yeluqi!" Huang Dingbang said with a sneer.

"General Huang, let this king kill his sharp spirit. A young man in silver armor sneered and pleaded.

Huang Dingbang shook his head and said: "I can't help it, His Royal Highness the Northern King is a golden body, how can he fight with such a barbarian!"

The young man who claimed to be the king of this opened his mouth and said: "The world of my Dongyue is defeated, if the two armies are facing each other, this king may not be the opponent of Xichu, but if it is caught and killed, this king has not been afraid of anyone." ”

Huang Dingbang thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, that Yeluqi is definitely not a good person, it is better to let Chu go crazy!"

The young man shook his head, ignoring Huang Dingbang, he turned on his horse and roared away.

On the opposite side, the clamoring camp of the Western Chu Empire suddenly saw a young general in silver armor and white robes, white horses and silver spears rushing out from Dongyue's camp.

"Whoever comes, report your name!" Yeluqi shouted with a sneer.

"Hmph, with you, you don't have the qualifications to know my name yet. Nangong Yu had no intention of reporting his name at all, and at the same time as he spoke, the silver spear was like a dragon, stabbing at Yeluqi.

The reason why Li Meng lost was because Li Meng didn't intend to win from the beginning, and he used a short weapon, and he fought against Yeluqi on the horse, without the slightest advantage at all, plus his equestrian skills were not as good as Yeluqi, and several disadvantages were combined, and his defeat was inevitable.

But Nangong Yu is not Li Meng and others, Nangong Yu is the high-level of the Dongyue Imperial Court, although he is not very old, but his combat power is amazing, as a prince, but he does not have the slightest shelf, just like an ordinary soldier, he never engages in special, he is the only prince in the Nangong Liezi Temple, the lord of Dongyue, who likes to fight on the battlefield.

Therefore, this time, after the Dongyue Imperial Court received the provocation of the Western Chu Empire, Nangong Yu took the initiative to invite Ying, as the king of the north, to go to the frontier in person to eat and sleep with the soldiers.
