Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 595

Tubo people believe in Bon religion. During the period when Songtsan Gampo unified Tubo, the religion of the country gradually changed, from primitive Bon religion to Yongzhong Bon religion. The so-called "Yongzhong Bon religion" probably refers to primitive Bon religion. A fusion with Indian Buddhism.

It's complicated to say, just kneel.

Regarding the piety of faith, the Tubo generals never forgot to worship the gods before going to battle, and begged for the blessings of the gods.

Just like in the muay thai ring of later generations, the worship ceremony of the players on both sides is more beautiful than the official start of the fight.

Li Qinzai has no beliefs, and he doesn't think this kind of temporary behavior is useful. In his previous life, he would bow down to the statues of the sages every important exam. Should he hang them up? The sages have spirits in the sky. Some kind of stupid mortal.

The Tubo general on the opposite side worshiped for a long time, but there was still no sign of stopping.

Li Qinzai doesn't have the habit of respecting other people's beliefs, let me wait until you finish the ceremony and then kill us with a knife, do you think we are stupid?Who is used to your stink?

So Li Qinzai frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Sun Congdong, push the gunner!"

Sun Congdong responded loudly, drew his sword and shouted, "Go-!"

More than a thousand musketeers in the front row stepped forward together, maintaining the formation and approaching the Tubo army step by step.

The Tubo generals were still muttering, kneeling and jumping, and the ceremony of worshiping the gods was not over yet, but the Tang army on the opposite side had already launched an attack.

The Tubo general panicked a little, this is not about martial ethics!

As the gunmen approached step by step, the Tubo general became more and more flustered.

Feeling flustered, the action of worshiping the gods suddenly became out of shape, and the Tubo generals became more and more frustrated. The ritual of worshiping the gods was dirty, and the gods would not bless them...

The general was terrified and angry, but he was obviously a pious and stubborn man, still trying to finish the ceremony completely.

Inside the Tang army's formation, Li Qinzai shouted again: "Song Jintu, come on, cavalry! Give them a hard hit first!"

Song Jintu waved down the flag in his hand, then grabbed the horse's belly and rushed out first.

The cavalry on both sides moved at the same time, one left and one right ruthlessly charged towards the Tubo army on the opposite side.

The musketeers advanced on foot, leaving plenty of time for the Tubo generals, but the cavalry came and went like the wind, arriving in the blink of an eye.

The Tubo generals finally realized that worshiping the gods might not be able to continue.

So he jumped up angrily, drew out his knife and cursed a few words, seeing that the direction the tip of his knife was pointing was Li Qinzai who was in the rear.

Following the Tubo general's yelling, all the Tubo army also moved. Thousands of forwards began to charge towards the gunmen in the front.

The two armies collided fiercely in the wilderness. At the same time, the forwards of the Tubo army also rushed within the range of the musketeers.

With the sound of "fire", after a burst of thick white smoke, countless Tubo army forwards were hit, fell heavily to the ground, and then were ruthlessly trampled by the Tubo army behind.

Sun Congdong's command flag kept waving in the thick smoke, and he shouted: "Press the ground, line up at intervals, retreat when you run out of ammunition, make up for the back row, and reload the ammunition in the back!"

In the back formation, Li Qinzai was surrounded by his followers, and occasionally a cold arrow was shot, but was knocked away by the quick-sighted old Wei.

Zi Nu was also surrounded by the trilogy. Seeing the two armies fighting with swords and swords, countless lives died tragically in an instant.

Li Qinzai glanced at her and said, "You have followed Lu Dongzan since childhood, have you never seen such a scene?"

Zi Nu shook his head: "I haven't seen it, I... seldom join the army, let alone witness the battle between the two armies."

Li Qinzai said: "Then you should close your eyes and open them after the war is over. That's why I said earlier that women should not get involved in wars, they dare not even look at them, let alone fight with real swords and guns..."

Zi Nu's face was pale, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "I'm just not used to it for a while. Although I have never fought with others, I have practiced martial arts since I was a child. If you are in danger, I will definitely protect you."

Li Qinzai shook his head, not expecting it at all.

Seeing that the forwards of the Tubo army were still rushing forward, Li Qinzai frowned and shouted: "Sun Congdong, send a few sharpshooters, sneak around to the enemy's flank, and shoot that god-worshiping general coldly, capture the thief and the king, we don't have time to waste it's here."

Sun Congdong nodded in understanding, and the three sharpshooters were drawn out of the team. After Sun Congdong whispered a few words, the sharpshooters quickly disappeared from the formation, and there was no one in the blink of an eye.

Zi Nu looked at the direction where the three sharpshooters disappeared, hesitant to speak.

Li Qinzai glanced at her, and said: "Don't look, the three-eyed gun's range is farther than that of a bow and arrow. As long as the head is accurate enough, that Tubo general will celebrate the Ching Ming Festival earlier."

Zi Nu lowered her head and said in shame: "I...stolen your three-eyed blunderbuss at the beginning, it was really not my intention..."

Li Qinzai smiled: "I know, otherwise you would have celebrated the Ching Ming Festival long ago. Since I released you back then, it means that I didn't care about it with you."

Zi Nu gave him a sideways glance: "What's 'release life', it's really ugly."

The two of them said a few words, swords and arrows were still flying together on the battlefield, and the battle was fierce, but in general, the casualties of the Tang army were still relatively small, mainly because the three-eyed blunderbuss took advantage of it, and the Tubo army had no time to rush to the hundred. Within a step, he was killed by the three-eyed gun.

Li Qinzai was still dissatisfied, looked up at the sky, and murmured: "It's not good..."

Zi Nu said in amazement: "Tang Jun has the upper hand, what's wrong?"

Li Qinzai said solemnly: "Since Lu Dongzan arranged for the Tubo army to block the way I must pass, how could he so rashly send more than [-] people to guard it? With Lu Dongzan's calculations, it is impossible for him to commit such a major crime." mistake."

"what do you mean……"

Li Qinzai suddenly shouted: "Ah Si, beat the drum, let Song Jintu rush through and defeat the Tubo army!"

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard two gunshots from the flank of the Tubo army. Li Qinzai looked up, but saw the Tubo general who worshiped God fell down with his chest covered.

Li Qinzai was overjoyed: "The enemy is ashamed, I will take off his clothes!"

"The enemy general has been awarded the head, let's hold our ground, the enemy army is about to be chaotic!"

In the chaotic army formation, the Tubo army, which was originally rigorous in offense and defense, began to become chaotic after a while. Not only did the formation leak flaws, but even deserters appeared.

Li Qinzai didn't expect the beheading tactic to be effective, but he didn't expect the sharpshooter under his command to be so upbeat.

"Beat the drum! The whole army strikes, and the musketeers move forward!" Li Qinzai shouted loudly.

It was clear that victory was in his hands, but Li Qinzai's expression did not show much happiness, but looked around uneasily.

This victory, which is so close at hand, is full of dangers for him.

The enemy general was beheaded, and Sun Congdong and Song Jintu were overjoyed, and they were directing the Tang army to pursue the victory.

But Li Qinzai suddenly said: "Si, send a few tributaries to disperse from four directions, ten miles away."
