Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 92
"Enemy attack!"

Li Shengtian opened his eyes just after the sound of the bronze drum.

He has been in the army for many years, and he has almost never entered a deep sleep state. He always sleeps lightly, and will wake up when there is a slight disturbance.

This allowed him to sleep for an average of four or five hours a day. If he hadn't practiced internal energy from his family, his body would have been unable to hold on.

Li Shengtian stood up from the straw mat. He didn't take off his armor while sleeping, and quickly walked out of the big tent. Many soldiers were also awakened and ran out of the tent.

"what happened?"

Li Shengtian asked the sentry guards who came over. There are hundreds of thousands of troops, and people will take turns to stand guard day and night. If there is any movement by the enemy, they can be found immediately.

The sentry said: "General, it's the enemy cavalry making noise outside the camp!"

"Oh?"

The camp has not been fully built at this time, but the general framework has been completed.

Li Shengtian came to the simple tower built specially for sentry, looked out, in the dark night, by the moonlight, he could vaguely see a group of cavalry galloping back and forth, making noise.

What these cavalrymen are holding are not weapons, but things like copper bowls.

As the running continues to hit and make a harsh sound, it is very uncomfortable to listen to.

Li Shengtian frowned: "A strategy for exhausted soldiers?"

He was also from a military family, so he must be able to see through such small tricks at a glance.

But being able to see through doesn't mean he can understand.

You must know that his camp is not far from Tianmen Pass, and the noise made by the Bei'an Army can definitely be heard at Tianmen Pass.

Then this is a strategy that harms others and is not beneficial to yourself. I can't sleep well, and you can't sleep well either.

Li Shengtian didn't understand why Su Yuan did this.

He glanced at his soldiers, most of them looked tired, and obvious irritability could be seen between their brows.

Anyone who is woken up in the middle of the night must be in a bad mood.It's just that the discipline in the army is strict, no matter how much the soldiers complain, they dare not speak out easily because they are afraid of being dealt with by the military law.

Although the strategy of exhausting troops is not a brilliant strategy, we must pay attention to the large number of our army.

Li Shengtian did not underestimate the danger of this strategy.

Because his army has tens of 10 people, even if only a small part is seriously affected, such as one in a thousand, that is thousands of soldiers.

Once these thousands of soldiers break down and refuse to obey military orders, or even riot, it will have a serious impact on other soldiers.

As soon as Li Shengtian thought of this, he immediately ordered: "Wang Jian obeys the order, and ordered you to take five thousand soldiers and horses to disperse the enemy cavalry. Don't approach, just use bows and arrows to shoot from a long distance."

"Yes!"

A general named Wang Jian immediately led his troops out of the camp and rushed towards the cavalry that kept harassing them.

It was Zhao Yun who led the cavalry. He only brought a thousand cavalry out of the city, of which only [-] carried weapons, and the other [-] carried all kinds of noise-making tools.

Seeing that the northern army sent troops out, Zhao Yun did not dare to rush forward, and decisively led his troops back.

Wang Jian pursued, but naturally he couldn't catch up, so he led his troops back to the camp.

He reported to Li Shengtianhui: "General, the person leading the troops on the other side is that Zhao Yun."

Under the firelight, Li Shengtian saw that Wang Jian's expression was wrong and his lips were tightly pursed, as if he was very afraid of Zhao Yun.

This is not surprising, Zhao Yunbai almost pierced through a group of cavalry by himself, and stabbed Zhang Rongdao under the horse again, which is not to say that he is not brave.

It must be known that Zhang Rongdao is not a nameless junior, he is also a famous general in the Qingzhou Army, he once led [-] elite troops north to support Su Tufeng, and fought with the Beirong people with real swords and guns.

Such a general would not be able to escape even one move under Zhao Yun's hands, which shows that Zhao Yun is terrible.

Seeing Wang Jian's expression, Li Shengtian immediately realized that most of the generals were afraid of Zhao Yun, and this was not acceptable.

He immediately had all the generals summoned to his camp.

"Everyone!"

Li Shengtian said to everyone.

"I know that Zhao Yun under Su Yuan is astonishingly brave, and I might as well tell you that he is indeed a master of martial arts, and his realm is probably not far from a master!"

"Master..."

"No wonder! The blue chill on his gun..."

Many generals also have some understanding of martial arts.

In fact, many generals have also practiced martial arts, but the level is usually not too high.

Because martial arts practice is a hard work, and it takes several hours to practice every day, just like this, it may not be guaranteed to be famous.

Talent, hard work, perception...these are all indispensable.

Even some famous sects can't ensure that every disciple can practice well, let alone those in the army.

However, there are also some military families with martial arts passed down within the family.

The Li family has a "Shan Shanjue" external skill, and a set of "Iron Blood Prison" mentality.

Li Shengtian has also cultivated since he was a child, and he is only in the fourth level of congenital realm until now, so he can also see the gap between himself and Zhao Yun in the realm of martial arts.

But he wasn't intimidated.

"It doesn't matter whether it's acquired, innate, or even a master. They are also human, and they will also get tired, bleed, and die!"

Li Shengtian raised his volume, his voice was like a bell.

"The ancestors of my Li family also led an army to crusade against Jianghu sects during the period of the 'Mie Wu Zhao' period. I don't know how many innate masters were killed, and several master masters also fell under my Li family's army!"

"Even if they are master masters, they can't fight against the army for a long time. Their physical strength is limited, and killing more than a thousand people at a time is the limit! You say, I ask the Northern Army for 45, as for being afraid of a Zhao Yun who has not yet set foot in the master!"

"The general is right! No matter how strong Zhao Yun is, how can he compare with thousands of troops?!"

"What the general said is very true!"

"I'm waiting to understand!"

After listening to Li Shengtian's analysis, the generals also felt that it was the case.

Although Zhao Yun is very brave, they have hundreds of thousands of troops.Even if Zhao Yun stood still in line and let Zhao Yun kill him, and killed Zhao Yun for three days and three nights, he would not be able to finish killing Zhao Yun.

Then what are you afraid of, afraid that Zhao Yun will take the head of the general from the crowd?

It's not necessary, if he really fell into the crowd of thousands of troops, even if he took the head of the general, it would be difficult for him to escape, and in the end it would be just one life for another.

Thinking of this, smiles appeared on the faces of the generals, and they were a little embarrassed after laughing, feeling that they were so scared before, it was really embarrassing.

"Report!"

Just when the public felt good about themselves, a small soldier shouted outside the tent.

"General, the enemy is coming again!"

Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang!Boom boom boom!
As soon as the little soldier finished speaking, all kinds of harsh noises began to appear again.Obviously, Zhao Yun's exhausted enemy team came out again when the pursuers returned.

Hearing the sound, Li Shengtian immediately went outside the tent. Sure enough, many soldiers who had just laid down were woken up again, and came out of the tent with blank and angry faces.

"Go! Go again and drive the people away!"

Li Shengtian said to Wang Jian, and added another sentence after speaking.

"Don't come back this time, just lead your troops to stay outside overnight, in case that Zhao Yun goes away and returns. I will let others replace your generals tomorrow, and you can rest."

"Yes!"

Wang Jian set off again with his troops, and Zhao Yun went back again when he saw people coming.

"Ugh……"

In Guancheng, as Li Shengtian said, Su Yuan was too noisy to sleep at the moment.

He tried plugging his ears with cotton cloth or something, but it didn't work.Feeling helpless, I had to meditate and practice internal strength.

It's just that he hasn't mastered his internal skills, and he can't enter the state of concentration at any time like Zhen Miao, and he will still be disturbed by the sound.

In desperation, he didn't sleep at all, put on his clothes and went to inspect the city wall.

Looking out from the city wall, the camp of the northern army can be seen from the large black outline of the construction speed.

That's right, if there are so many people in the army, and it's not a palace or garden, but a simple camp, it won't take much effort.

It is estimated that in another three or four days, the camp will be roughly built.In terms of scale, it is not a problem to install 10,000+ people.

As for the rest, Su Yuan thinks that Li Shengtian will probably be placed behind the camp to support the food and grass transportation team and avoid the mistake of putting all eggs in one basket.

I have to say that Li Shengtian's thinking is very correct.If all the troops were placed in the camp, then Su Yuan would probably want to attack with fire.

Now...

Ok?
Just as Su Yuan was thinking, he suddenly heard a sound of shouting and killing.

He took a closer look and found that it was Zhao Yun who led his team of cavalry and fought with the northern army who came out to drive them away!
"A fight?"

Su Yuan was a little surprised. He asked Zhao Yun to let go, thinking that he would keep harassing, retreating, harassing, and retreating.This cycle goes on and on until the mentality of the opposite party collapses.

In the end, I didn't expect that they would fight hand to hand.

And it seemed that Zhao Yun took the initiative to attack, and the enemy was completely caught off guard.

In the night, Zhao Yun suddenly ordered the soldiers to throw away the noise-makers and take up weapons to charge with him.Wang Jian, who was in charge of driving him away, did not expect this scene at all.

He and Zhao Yun come and go, this scene has been repeated five or six times, and they are used to it.As a result, Zhao Yun did not leave this time, but instead launched a surprise attack, which was completely beyond his expectation.

I saw that Zhao Yun rode like a thousand horses, his inner strength surged, and when he rushed into Wang Jian's thousands of troops, he stabbed chaotically.

His guns were filled with inner energy, and he stabbed and killed hundreds of soldiers in an instant, smashing the defensive formation of Wang Jian's troops to pieces.

In this way, when the Xiliang iron cavalry who were one step slower than Zhao Yun rushed over again, they would face a group of infantry with chaotic defenses, and it would be as easy to defeat them as cutting melons and vegetables.

Wang Jian absolutely did not expect this to happen, and kept yelling "Get out! Get out!", but it didn't help.

His subordinates were quickly killed in sevens and eights, and when he himself was about to escape, he suddenly felt light in his body.Looking down, he was suddenly shocked.

His body actually soared into the air, and Zhao Yun picked up the armor on his body with a long spear. No matter how he waved his hands and kicked in the air, he still couldn't escape.

This made him extremely desperate, but at the same time he felt a little lucky.

He knew that Zhao Yun could have killed Zhang Rongdao with a single shot.But now that he is not dead, it means that Zhao Yun is going to be caught alive.

Alive... is better than dead!
Thinking of this, Wang Jian didn't bother to struggle anymore, and allowed him to be carried away by Zhao Yun with a gun.

At this time, it was long overdue to ask for reinforcements from the Northern Army.But the battle started too quickly and ended too quickly. As soon as the reinforcements arrived, Zhao Yun led his men back to Tianmen Pass.

All that was left for the reinforcements was the corpses of our own soldiers in one place...

Tianmenguan.

After Wang Jian was thrown off the spear by Zhao Yun and fell to the ground, regardless of the pain, he immediately got up and remained motionless, showing a posture of obedience.

Several soldiers tied him up, and then Zhao Yun carried him in one hand and went to see Su Yuan.

"Lord!"

Seeing Su Yuan, Zhao Yun dropped Wang Jian and knelt down on one knee to plead guilty.

"Zhao Yun attacked without the master's order, please punish him!"

"Punish what, get up quickly."

How could Su Yuan punish him? What he lacks now is a general like Zhao Yun who can make his own decisions. It's too late to be happy.

"Thank you, my lord." Zhao Yun got up and pointed at Wang Jian, "This man is a general in the northern army."

"Bei, the king of Bei'an... the villain Wang Jian, I have met the king of Bei'an."

Wang Jian knew that the long-haired handsome man in front of him was Bei'an Wang Suyuan, so he opened his mouth quickly.

Su Yuan looked at him and said: "Wang Jian, listen to you, you should not be a stubborn person, it seems that I don't need to use any means against you, right?"

As soon as Su Yuan heard Wang Jian's lack of confidence, he knew that this guy was not the kind of tough general.

This kind of guy doesn't need to be interrogated by Jin Yiwei at all.

Wang Jian nodded quickly: "My lord is right, if you don't use tricks, the villain must know everything!"

He spoke very eagerly, obviously worried that Su Yuan would be greeted before he said anything.

As a general of the Qingzhou Army, he really has no loyalty to the Li family.

What's more, they fought as soldiers only for the military pay and military merits, as for the imperial court and those dignitaries, that's unnecessary.

"Very good." Seeing that Wang Jian was very cooperative, Su Yuan asked his soldiers to untie him.

Breaking free from the bondage of the rope, Wang Jian didn't dare to make any extra movements, still knelt on the ground, and said to Su Yuan: "Thank you, my lord! The villain is willing to do my best for my lord!"

"You're happy enough." Su Yuan said, "Well, I'll ask you a question, and you have to answer it truthfully."

"Please ask the prince!"

"You are discussing the grain and grass of the Northern Army. When will you transport it?"

Wang Jian was taken aback for a moment, and then he hesitated and said: "My lord, this... the villain doesn't know. The villain is just a partial general, and only Li Shengtian and the escort officer know about the important matters of food and grass."

"do not know?"

"The villain really doesn't know!"

"Then what's the use of me keeping you? Tell yourself what's your worth." Su Yuan said lightly.

When Wang Jian heard this, he panicked.

He heard what Su Yuan said, if he was useless, wouldn't he stay?

This……

"Take it."

"Yes!"

Wang Jian was picked up by the arms of two soldiers, and as if waking up from a dream, he hurriedly said: "Wait! My lord, I have value! I have many friends in Qingzhou! They will definitely be able to find out what you want, my lord!"

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Su Yuan waved his hand to stop the soldiers from moving.

He said to Wang Jian: "Well, I will keep you for a few days. If you can prove that what you said is true, I will spare your life, otherwise..."

"The villain understands!" Wang Jian raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, "The villain will write a letter now! But... I have to trouble the prince to find a way to send the letter to Qingzhou..."

"You don't have to worry about delivering the letter."

The soldiers took Wang Jian down, and Su Yuan smiled at Zhao Yun: "Zilong, if this Wang Jian can be useful, then you have made great contributions, and I will reward you well."

Zhao Yun also showed a smile: "Thank you, my lord!"
