Chapter 128
When the war drums sounded, Liu Xie was taking a nap on the saddle.

He didn't sleep all night and failed to achieve the expected goal. He was somewhat depressed. He was so sleepy that he wanted to take the time to catch up on sleep before the Xiliang army attacked.

Awakened by the sound of war drums, he thought Li Ying was attacking.

I looked back and forth twice with my eyes open, but found that the front of the hillside was peaceful, and there was no sign of fighting at all.

After a while, he realized that the sound of the war drums did not come from the front of the slope, which was in full swing, but from the northwest direction of the battlefield.

The Northwest has been smashed into a pot of porridge, the smoke and dust are billowing, and the screams of killing are loud.

"A fight?" Liu Xie was both surprised and delighted.

Yang Xiu and Ding Chong were watching the battle with their necks stretched out, feeling equally ecstatic, they didn't notice that Liu Xie woke up.Hearing Liu Xie's voice, they replied without looking back: "It's fighting, it's fighting."

After saying that, Ding Chong realized who the person was asking the question, looked back, and hurriedly bowed to salute.

Yang Xiu also reacted, and quickly apologized.

"Your Majesty, are you awake?"

"What's going on here?" Liu Xie pointed to the distance, some couldn't believe his eyes.

"As His Majesty expected, Guo Si took the initiative to attack, and Li Jue faced the battle. Both sides dispatched the most elite cavalry to fight to the death." Yang Xiu couldn't contain his excitement, and said loudly: "When two tigers fight, one will be injured, and even both may lose. .”

Liu Xie was also very happy, but he was not as optimistic as Yang Xiu, and he calmed down quickly.

"Is there any movement from Yang Ding?"

Ding Chong shook his head. "I haven't received any news yet."

Liu Xie cursed secretly, Yang Ding is a bastard, it's already noon, and he is still waiting and watching, he doesn't want to send troops.

Although understandable, he was still a little disappointed.

"What about the rest?"

"Nothing happened." Ding Chong turned his head and glanced at Dongfang. "Maybe Zhang Ji and Duan Yan don't trust each other, so they can only stalemate."

Liu Xie's head hurt even more.

This is really a huge waste.

If Duan Yan and Zhang Ji attacked Li Jue together, their strength would exceed Li Jue's and would be enough to tear Li Jue to pieces.

But they were wary of each other, and these forces became decorations.

Guo Si's strength alone is not enough to defeat Li Jue, and Yang Ding may not be enough either.

Liu Xielue thought about it, and then led his people to the front to find Yang Feng.

"General, prepare to attack immediately."

Yang Feng smiled all over his face. "Your Majesty, I'm ready. There are eighty-seven riders in total, and I'm on standby at any time."

Liu Xie looked at Yang Feng suspiciously. "What I'm talking about is not only cavalry, but also infantry. Guo Si only has [-] men, and Li Jue has a clear advantage in troops. If Li Ying and Li Li cannot be held back, Guo Si will surely be defeated."

"Your Majesty, isn't this just right? Li Jue is guilty of coercing Chengyu. Guo Si also hijacked the public minister, and the crime is also unforgivable. He fought with Li Jue, and both sides were injured. He was even killed by Li Jue, which is what he deserved. "

Liu Xie frowned. "What if Li Jue annexed his subordinates after defeating Guo Si?"

Yang Feng looked embarrassed, but he didn't intend to back down.

"Your Majesty, I am not a minister who dares to resist the edict. If it is Your Majesty, I will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate. It is really not worth it to save Guo Si. Moreover, the minister's subordinates are limited, and there is more than enough to defend the formation. I am afraid that it is not enough. what."

Liu Xie did not persuade.

Rotten wood cannot be carved, and mud cannot support walls!

He knew what Yang Feng was thinking, and he also knew that persistence was meaningless.

Trying to take command from Yang Feng will only provoke Yang Feng to resist.

Liu Xie changed the topic. "The general is serious, and I am very relieved. Li Ying will be handed over to the general, and I will go to the Chinese army to watch the battle."

Hearing that the emperor was not only not angry, but praised himself, Yang Feng was delighted and nodded repeatedly.

Liu Xie didn't bother to pay attention to him, and rushed to the Chinese army with Yang Xiu, Guo Wu and others.

Seeing more than a hundred riders follow Liu Xie away, Yang Fengcai realized a problem: from now on, he can only stick to the formation and defend.

Without the support of Guo Wu and others, especially without the assault of a warrior like Guo Wu, not to mention his [-] or so riders, even if he counts all those who can ride horses, it is not enough to attack Li Ying's position. Not coming.

-

Liu Xie rushed to Shi Sunrui's position in a hurry.

The scholar Sun Rui was also watching the battle with a dignified expression.

Seeing Liu Xie chasing him, he strode forward to greet him, bowed his hands and saluted, and said: "Your Majesty, I am about to send someone to ask for an imperial edict."

"Wei Wei, what do you want to ask for?"

"Your Majesty, please take command."

"Me?" Liu Xie froze for a moment, greatly surprised.

"Li Jue and Guo Si fought fiercely, and they couldn't get entangled. This is a great opportunity for me to attack, but the central army can't be left alone. I want your majesty to take command in the center, and I will lead the guards and infantry battalion soldiers to attack."

Liu Xie looked up.

There was so much smoke and dust billowing on the battlefield that it was impossible to see anything clearly.

But the intensity of the battle is beyond doubt.

At this moment to take the initiative to attack, Shi Sun Rui's vision can be said to be experienced, and his courage and courage are not comparable to Yang Fengneng.

Liu Xie wanted to agree to Shi Sun Rui's request, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

It is understandable that Sun Rui wants to send people to fight, but it is not necessary to kill people in person.

He has no experience in commanding in front of the battle, and Shi Sun Rui will give him the commanding power at this time, how can he know that it is not a temptation?
"Weiwei's courage is commendable, but it's a big taboo for military strategists to change generals just before the battle. It's better for Weiwei to stay in the central army and send other people to attack." Liu Xie looked at the front and said: "For example, Wei Jie, the infantry captain, is very easy to go into battle. There are rules and regulations, which can be a big responsibility."

Sun Rui shook his head. "What your majesty said is not unreasonable, but this battle is not only about victory or defeat, but also about survival, and you must go all out. I have the trust of your majesty. I wish to die in the affairs of state, and I am worthy of this life."

Without waiting for Liu Xie to say more, Shi Sun Rui bowed and bowed again.

"The military situation is urgent, and Guo Si may be defeated at any time. Please don't shirk and delay the opportunity. The soldiers who are capable of fighting will be taken away by the minister, and the rest are only enough to defend themselves. Please insist on your majesty. If necessary, you can retreat to the back slope. , absolutely not to fight in vain."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Wang Fu, the school lieutenant of Yueqi who rushed over, changed his face, and shouted sharply: "Wang Fu, your Majesty's safety will be entrusted to you. If there is any mistake, you are the only one to ask."

Wang Fu was taken aback, and quickly bowed to accept the order. "Weiwei don't worry, but if I have an inch of strength, I will protect His Majesty."

Shi Sun Rui nodded slightly. "Your Majesty, take care, the minister is gone."

Liu Xie carefully looked at Shi Sun Rui's eyes, felt that he did not seem to be a fake, and said with emotion: "Wei Wei take care."

Shi Sunrui bowed and bowed again, took the helmet from the personal guard, and got on his horse.

"Drum!"

The drummer waved the drum and beat the cowhide drum vigorously. Amid the mighty sound of the war drum, Shi Sun Rui kicked his horse out of the battle, raised his knife and roared.

The soldiers shouted in unison, divided more than ten lines into four lines, passed through the positions between each line, filed forward, and gathered around Shi Sun Rui.

On the other side, Wei Jie, the captain of the infantry, also changed formation. More than [-] infantry were divided into two formations, with Sima Xu Huang in front and Wei Jie himself in the back, beating drums and trumpets, and walked towards the battlefield.

The Shesheng Battalion changed its formation and was listed as a horizontal formation in front of Liu Xie.

With his back to Liu Xie, Ju Jun stood with his sword in his arms, his bank as tall as a pine.
