Chapter Eighty-Five: Fighting
Xiao Huiyuan's farce was just a small episode, and Ye Pei didn't waste too much time in dealing with this matter. After that, Ye Pei and the others went to see Yang Tianrui.
After meeting, Yang Tianrui was still enthusiastic, and it could be seen that he really admired Ye Pei and Jiang Zhongqing.
"Brother Ye Xian, Brother Jiang Xian, two younger brothers and sisters, come and sit down. β
Ye Pei also returned the salute: "Brother Yang is polite." β
Subsequently, Yang Tianrui introduced another figure in the tent, "This is Liu Ziwen, the wise general of my clan, who came with me with the troops this time." β
Ye Pei said hello to the thin Liu Ziwen and said, "In the lower Ye Pei, I have long admired General Liu's name. β
Liu Ziwen smiled back: "Ye Shaoxia is a young hero, and this general admires it." β
But when I saw this person, his skin was white, his body was thin, his lips were as thin and sharp as a knife, and a pair of tricks were small but shiny like spear tips.
Ye Pei was silent on the surface, and secretly kept a heart in her heart. Literature can interfere with politics, but it is difficult to break the law with force. No matter how powerful Yang Tianrui is, he is also a martial artist, so he is not to be afraid; But Liu Ziwen is obviously not as bright as Yang Tianrui, and cooperating with the Feng family is like a dance on the tip of a knife, and for Liu Ziwen, he has to be more precautionary than Yang Tianrui.
Ye Pei said: "Brother Yang, I'm thinking...... The Feng Clan is personally led by you, won't it completely start a war between the two clans?"
Yang Tianrui said: "I'll be honest, this is indeed very possible, but these three thousand elites are only, a small scene, we came from the mountain trail, and we were directly stationed here at this time, and we did not hang our military flag during the war, as long as General Liu and I did not come forward directly, no one in the outside world knew that we were the wind army." β
Ye Pei thought about it and there was no problem, nodded and said, "What Brother Yang said is reasonable, so ...... I'm not worried. β
Yang Tianrui smiled: "Yes." I don't know if in Brother Ye Xian's opinion, when is it better to send troops?"
Ye Pei thought for a while and said: "The soldiers are very fast, and besides, the small battlefield of thousands of people doesn't have much to prepare, Lin Hezhi on the Lin family's side has just died, and he can be caught off guard at this time." I think it's better to send troops as soon as possible. β
The version of Wangyan Ji that circulated in the Yandi almost describes Ye Linhui as the first marshal of the ages, and Ye Pei's image is also heavily deified, and his military ability is second only to his father.
Therefore, Ye Pei's opinion is also very important in Yang Tianrui's eyes, and the two coincide at this time, and Ye Pei also brought Yang Tianrui a good news that Lin Hezhi is dead.
"Hahaha, the hero sees the same thing, so ...... When Yin's army arrives, we'll send our troops!"
Ye Pei poured saliva fiercely: "Okay!"
The Yin clan did not send troops early before, not that the Yin clan did not dare to fight this battle, but that Dongfang Boyi considered that if the Yin clan's unusual movements were noticed by the Lin clan, he was afraid that he would not be able to seize this opportunity.
As soon as Ye Pei came back, Dongfang Boyi sent a message to the Yin tribe, and the 2,000 people from the Yin tribe who had been waiting for each other quickly pulled out and came to the Xiao tribe.
After that, while the army was fighting on the front line, it would also be constantly conscripted and sent to the battlefield. Dongfang Yin has a very good reputation among the three tribes of Dongfang Clan, Xiao Clan, and Yin Clan, and after being killed, there are many hot-blooded people who want to take revenge but have no way.
Seven days later, Yin's troops arrived here, and as early as three days ago, Ye Pei and Yang Tianrui had begun to organize the army to organize their outfits, after Yin's 2,000 people arrived, the army took a short rest, Ye Pei and others greeted Yin's general Yin Xiangping, and the 6,500 army held high the banner of "East" and embarked on a journey to the west.
After careful consideration, Ye Pei and Jiang Zhongqing still decided to take Zi Qingrong and Zhuang Tianlan in the army, and Xiao Huiyuan's affair was out of the matter, and the second ancestor obviously would not come to fight, so it was really reassuring to leave them in the Xiao clan's territory.
In front of the army, Ye Pei, who was sitting on a war horse, was silently distracted with a piece of grass in his mouth. remembered that his father Ye Linhui and his senior brother Zi Zheng took over the talisman on the high platform, and shouted, and the 100,000 troops under the stage were in harmony with each other, how majestic it was.
Thinking of this, Ye Pei took advantage of the uphill slope to look back at the troops behind him, which were only 8,000 people with logistics, thinking that there was no expedition ceremony, he smiled and muttered: "I don't know if I am a shame for my father like this." β
He didn't know that many of the armies of Feng, Yin, and Xiao were soldiers who had participated in the Wangyan Season War, and at this time, looking at Ye Pei, who was sitting in the commander's position in front of him, he was even more emotional. They have no direct hatred with Ye Pei, Ye Pei did not kill many people in the war, and a large part of them were generals.
And the news that the rapid march holding high the banner of "Dongfang" went all the way to the main city of the Lin clan quickly spread along the way, and those who got the news also knew that this was Dongfang Boyi's revenge. The four tribes along the way were as expected, and they had no intention of intervening.
There is a difference between not interfering and not interfering, some people have no grievances with both sides, and they are completely reporting the idea of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, while some are not dealing with the Lin family, and when they see the army of Lin, they are also gearing up, waiting for the side as long as it is not disadvantaged, it may send troops to help.
The Lin family naturally also knew about this, and the news that Ye Pei was one of the main generals also spread, Lin Jingzhi was furious, and after the urgent negotiation in the lord's mansion, he quickly ordered 5,000 troops to prepare for the battle.
Lin Jingzhi also never expected that the Xiao family and the Yin family would be so loyal to the Dongfang family. He thought that the Dongfang clan, who had lost power, was left with only the old, weak, sick and disabled, a mother and a son, where was there any ability to resist.
If there is a book, it is long, and if there is no book, it is short.
Within a few days, the army had already pressed into the true core territory of the Lin clan.
The other fiefs belong to various tribes, but only the eighteen cities and thirty-six counties in the center really belong to the Lin family.
The early autumn sun emits a warm but not dazzling light, birds are few in the sky, and reptiles on the land are extinct. An army of six thousand was spread out in a neat line on the wasteland in front of the city, and the sunlight of the shining armor cast on the city, tugging at the hearts of every warrior.
Ye Pei and Jiang Zhongqing rode in front of the army, neither of them wearing armor. Their kung fu is relatively light and agile, and wearing heavy armor is not conducive to performance. Although everyone felt that their ideas were relatively naΓ―ve, Ye Pei only used the sentence "The battlefield of hundreds of thousands of people is also fought like this" and blocked everyone back.
Speaking of which, the two of them were also very leisurely before the war, Jiang Zhongqing's sword was still on his back, and Ye Pei had no signs of weapons on his body. Those who know the situation know that Ye Pei's weapon is hidden in his waist, and those who don't know still think that Ye Pei is not worthy of his name, and he even forgot to bring his weapon when he saw the battlefield.
Before the battle, Ye Pei couldn't help but think of the worry in Zi Qingrong's eyes when the sky was slightly bright, and when the army was preparing to line up, Zi Qingrong couldn't hide the worry in his eyes when he sorted out his clothes.
"I thought your martial arts were so good, I wouldn't worry about you going to battle...... But now I know that I am still very worried, you must be careful, just let the soldiers do the risky things. β
At that time, Ye Pei smiled, remembering that his father taught him that what soldiers wanted to hear most was always "kill with me", and his father was the marshal, and he would still take the lead in rushing to the front line when he occupied the planned development.
Ye Pei didn't say this, he touched his fiancΓ©e's hair with a smile, and said softly: "Don't worry, this kind of scene can't leave me." β
Before the battle, Ye Pei's expression was a little dazed.
He remembered that when he left home to go to the main battlefield of Luoshui City, his mother and Dragon Sparrow burst into tears, Meng Huaicheng's expression of eagerness to follow him, and the roars of Ye Zijun and Yue Zhe behind him when he fell into the Demon Gate Valley......
"Hehe...... Ye Pei chuckled, "I didn't expect that today I would actually stand on the battlefield of the Yan Clan's civil war." β
The commander here is Liu Ziwen, who is on the front line with Dongfang Boyi at this time. And Yang Tianrui did not come forward at this time, after all, the recognition is too high.
The defenders of this Jiazhou city are considered to be large, with 4,000 people, which is very difficult to fight in terms of siege warfare alone. Therefore, the plan of the Eastern Army is to call the formation first, cut off a few of his generals, and cut his morale.
This idea coincides with the opposite. As the overlord of the party that has accumulated prestige for a long time, the Lin clan has no reason to coward, and before waiting for the Eastern Army to call for battle, there are already several generals with a small force except for the city gate to face the battle.
As soon as the 2,000 men and horses on the Lin side left the city, a young man with a gun galloped out and jumped on the open space in front of the two sides: "Listen to the rebels on the other side! I am Lin Po, the general of Jiazhou! Which one will be sent to death first?"
Like this, it is generally the peripheral relatives of the Lin family, who want to mix up some meritorious deeds in this kind of city, and go back to be a good official and knight, but they also have some real skills. In addition, the Dongfang clan is a general, so to be honest, the Lin clan didn't take it too seriously, so he let these young people brush up on military merits in the future.
Over there, Liu Zi suddenly pulled out his long sword, which startled Ye Pei, and said in his heart, didn't this military advisor arouse the blood in his heart and want to rush up to the duel himself...... Then I heard Liu Ziwen raise his arms and shout: "Which general is willing to fight?"
Hearing this, Ye Pei couldn't help laughing. Speaking of which, I don't have many wars, but I really haven't fought like this.
Seeing Liu Ziwen looking at himself with a puzzled face, Ye Pei, who had no intention of fighting, smiled again and said, "I am willing to fight!"
Dongfang Boyi shouted: "Okay! General Ye will play this first formation!"
The war drums sounded in the rear, Ye Pei took the spear in the hand of a soldier beside him, shook the reins, and trotted forward, looking not a little nervous.
When he entered the battlefield, Lin Po looked at the white-clothed young man who was fighting, and laughed loudly: "Where did the hairy boy come to fight, didn't your adults teach you to wear battle armor?"
Ye Pei smiled and said, "Your surname is Lin, I don't know who the three Lin brothers are?"
Ye Pei was also completely unsure if the other party was a relative of the Lin family, so she just asked casually, not wanting Lin Po to respond: "The three brothers of the Lin family are my distant cousins! Even if my Lin Po's martial arts are not as good as the second brother of Yukong, they are not far behind! Are you here to die or go back to change someone?" I disdain to kill you!"
Ye Pei touched her nose. Lin Yukong only remembered that the man was picked by his own shot at that time, and then he was captured back to the city, and he didn't survive a round.
Ye Pei didn't report her name, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, come on!"
For the Lin family, Ye Pei has no intention of showing mercy to his subordinates at all. The Feng clan and the Wan clan actually have no enmity with themselves. Although Wan Zheng fought against Zi Zheng, he died in the hands of Zi Zheng in the first battle, Feng Xiaoyang also died in the hands of his own people, and his father and senior brother died in the hands of the Lin family.
Holding the spear horizontally at his side, Ye Pei clamped the horse's belly between her legs, and shouted: "Ride!" The war horse got the order, and with a long neigh, it galloped towards Lin Po. Seeing this, Lin Po was not to be outdone, and waved his spear and rushed towards Ye Pei.
Since he was fighting, Ye Pei decided to fight for power. During the charge, Ye Pei silently used the internal force in his hand, only to see an almost imperceptible transparent halo circling around the spear's body, and the surrounding air fluctuated with it.
Lin Po didn't notice this change, and stabbed with his gun when he was about to fight with the two. The gun in Lin Po's hand should be a short cavalry spear, but it was also longer than the infantry spear in Ye Pei's hand. In the face of this blow, Ye Pei clamped the horse's belly to make the war horse turn an angle slightly, and at the same time he dodged the stab by turning sideways, and then the spear swung and smashed towards Lin Po.
Lin Po didn't take it seriously when he saw that the other party had dodged this stab, and when he saw that the other party had given up the advantage of the spear and used the spear as a stick, he smiled contemptuously and blocked the spear.
However, Ye Pei's blow with internal force smashed, where can such a young general be able to block it? Not to mention the power of the war horse's charge, even if the two are similar in strength, this smash is definitely not easy to catch. It's just that Ye Pei's skills are much stronger than the opponent's, so he can easily dodge the opponent's stabbing and create a smashing attack environment.
"Click!" "Poof-"
Hearing only a crisp sound, the hardwood rod of the spear in Lin Po's hand broke in response, and the spear smashed into his chest unabated, and Lin Po's whole person flew out like a cannonball, spurting blood from his mouth, and fell to the ground unconscious.
For a moment, the entire battlefield was silent.
