Empress Mi Benji

Chapter 239

The two armies faced each other and arranged in formation. Li Rusi, who was thinking alone, looked north at the Qinghu Mountains. The cold wind was blowing and the time was colorful.

It is impossible for 30 people to line up all the way. There is always a forward center and two wings. She is one of the flanks.

It was learned from King Cheng that Li Pingyuan used King Qinghe's black armor to form a tiger and wolf cavalry of his own, hoping to fight out of the Qinghu Mountains when the two armies were fighting.

Li Rusi was inclined to believe that King Cheng's reasons for seeking refuge were quite good. He had been rescued by Zhuang Xun once before and knew the so-called ghosts and gods. It was in compliance with fate to seek refuge with Zhuang Xun now.

Coupled with the previous whistle-blowing incident, and the fact that King Cheng had rescued Zhuang Xun once, although he was intercepted by Queen Mother Jiang, this series of reasons made Li Rusi believe it, so she came to the right wing to guard against Cheng's army's sneak attack.

The weather became clear and the continuous heavy snow stopped. She couldn't wait for Zhuang Xun's promise of five thousand days to mobilize the army, so she was caught off guard.

Waiting for Zhuang Xun to increase his troops would not only give Li Pingyuan the opportunity to dispatch his troops, but all she had to do was to complete the decisive battle with Li Pingyuan at lightning speed.

All the way down to Qiba City, they approached Jidu. If Li Pingyuan insisted on defending Jidu, other places would be surrounded and devoured by reinforcements, not to mention whether those places would come to help.

For example, in the territory of the original King of Qinghe, if Li Pingyuan could not show his suppressive power, don't blame him for being independent. Therefore, he had to attack and fight off Xia's attack in order to gain a foothold.

This is also the reason why Li Rusi forcibly suppressed the generals and took advantage of the frozen river to attack Chengguo, and could not give Li Pingyuan a chance to integrate.

Chengguo's garrison was 20, but there were about 5000 so-called tiger and wolf cavalry, that is, the low-profile Xuanjia army. She did not dare to fight the Xuanjia army head-on, so she could only use roundabout ways to consume it.

Li Rusi analyzed that the low-matched Xuanjia Army was still capable of fighting, and she had already risked her life.

The letter sent from Hengdu made her understand the disgust of the Cheng-Zhao alliance. Once it was achieved, it meant that Xia State would never have an environment for development. How could Cheng State develop if it attacked coastal cities all day long?

It is difficult to destroy the Xia Kingdom, but it is easy to prevent it from developing. Keep harassing the border, robbing people and money, and recruiting heavy troops to defend it will also consume the national power. Failure to defend will also consume the national power and the people's hearts.

What are the consequences of this? Interrupting the development of Xia State. Xia State's development is like walking on a tightrope and can only move forward unstoppably. Now there is an obstacle. Doesn't it mean falling off the tightrope?
Zhuang Xun and the whole country will hate the Li family very much. No matter what I said before, there is some affection. Even though Li Pingyuan had Zhuang Xun under house arrest, he had no intention of killing Zhuang Xun. If he did, he would really die.

Taking a variety of factors into account, Li Rusi chose to attack in such a disaster year. The heavy snowfall and frozen rivers were opportunities. The actual situation urgently required the unification of Jizhou, and her personal feelings hoped that the Li family would be preserved.

The drums sounded, and the troops in front had begun to fight. Li Rusi's eyes were fixed on the direction of the Qinghu Mountains, and they were ready.

Time passed by, and the fighting between the two armies was not very intense in winter. Li Pingyuan emphasized the power of the military formation. Li Rusi, who inherited Li Pingyuan's military theory, preferred the fighting style of rushing the formation because of his own strength.

This time the strength of the two sides is almost evenly divided. Cheng Guo has the low-match Xuanjia Army, Xia Guo has the advantage of soldiers, Xia Guo uses superior troops to fight against Cheng Guo's army formation, and Cheng Guo uses tiger and wolf cavalry to fight against the brave Li Rusi.

It can be said that they are almost the same now. Waiting, waiting, soldiers continue to fight, the front line is like a meat grinder.

But Zhuang Xun's side had the advantage, because the soldiers were more brave, they all knew what the war was for, what the standards for pensions were, and what the consequences of desertion would be.

The Xia State has mercy but also severe punishment. If there is a deserter on the front line, the whole family in the rear will be exiled. If you die, you will die on the battlefield.

Therefore, the situation on the battlefield has changed for Chengguo. Even the elite Forbidden Army, without a generation gap in weapons and equipment, was frightened by the fearlessness of Xiaguo's army.

"kill!"

The billowing snow and smoke rolled up, and the horse hooves carried the tiger and wolf riders into the right wing.

Sure enough, as King Cheng said, Qi Bing planned to break through from the right wing, but Li Rusi stood there without any hesitation and charged forward with a gun.

With great brute strength, she showed no fear in the face of the incoming enemy troops. She gave an order and the soldiers followed.

So what about the Xuanjia Army? Being stabbed by her spear was not enough to kill her. Her eyes were red, and her whole body looked fierce after being infected by the blood. The mask of fangs was ferocious and terrifying, like a god of death, becoming a tough wall. wall.

But it is only a wall. No matter how courageous others are, they will be powerless in confrontation in the face of disparity in weapons and equipment.

As the soldiers beside him fell down, Li Rusi's position gradually became prominent, forming a situation of a small circle within a large circle.

Li Rusi was completely unafraid and relied on her invulnerable body-protecting aura to charge left and right. She knew that blocking these people would be an advantage even if it took 6 or [-] people to retain them on the battlefield in front, because she used the simplest The flat push did not give Li Pingyuan a chance to operate.

However, the red-eyed Li Rusi noticed something was wrong. There were clearly more than 5000 Tiger and Wolf Cavalrymen in Chengguo, so why were there only 2000 here.

She could still allow herself to be surrounded. Normally, she should have torn a hole, but being blocked instead of being surrounded like this gave her an ominous premonition.

There were loud shouts of killing from the rear. Li Rusi realized that he had fallen into a trap and attacked in the east and west. Li Pingyuan also realized that Li Rusi's ability could lead people to resist the charge of these low-match Xuanjia troops, so he deliberately recruited some people. To contain Li Rusi.

In order to make her believe, King Cheng was deliberately released to interfere with her sight and temporarily trap her. These tiger and wolf cavalry had no intention of rushing to the Chinese army camp. They just temporarily trapped Li Rusi to prevent her from being like Running around like a fire captain.

After thinking clearly, Li Rusi turned her horse around and charged back, but these tiger and wolf knights were like iron lumps, which shook their hands and broke into pieces, and they were quickly replaced by others.

Li Rusi was anxious and panicked, but these knights who could use the black armor were already elite and had a strong will to fight.

Li Rusi was a human but not a god, so he could only hold on to a stalemate, and ordinary troops from the outside could not attack.

If the remaining Tiger and Wolf Cavalry are allowed to break through on other lines, they may form a single-point explosion to capture the thief and capture the king. Without command, Xia State will be defeated even if its numbers are greater than Cheng State.

Thinking of this situation, Li Rusi's heart pumped, her whole body became murderous, and she no longer held back. A gun she manipulated outrageously penetrated the two of them, lifted it up and smashed it to the ground.

This behavior greatly shocked the Tiger and Wolf Cavalry. The green-faced and fanged mask of the fierce god was covered with the enemy's blood. The red light in Li Rusi's eyes even evoked the memories of some soldiers.

"monster!"

As the first person shouts.

Like the wind, it spread into the ears of Tiger and Wolf Cavalry.

With a man wearing armor, a normal horse wouldn't be able to carry it. It's too heavy, so it would have to be a horse with a bit of monster blood.

Li Rusi actually stabbed two people with a gun with one hand, and could still lift it with one hand. She was nothing but a monster.Taking advantage of the opponent's confusion and fright, Li Rusi began to break out of the encirclement, and faced the confused and frightened Tiger Wolf Cavalry and stabbed him again.

After reacting, the tiger and wolf cavalry blocked the opening again, firmly preventing Li Rusi, who was already surrounded, from protruding.

Then there are the monsters. These soldiers have not forgotten their mission. The monsters also have to drag Li Rusi with their lives to give Li Chengzhi, who has five thousand real tiger and wolf riders on the other side, a chance.

But Li Chengzhi didn't use it, so he didn't expect to use it, not three thousand, but five thousand. In order to deal with Xia Kingdom, General Yu supported a group of armors in order to avenge Zhuang Xun's revenge for exterminating Youyou.

According to Li Pingyuan's idea, two thousand tiger and wolf cavalry trapped the fierce general Li Rusi, and the Chinese army on the left and right would come to support them. They only had to tear open the Xia army's left wing and penetrate directly into the Chinese army camp responsible for issuing orders. Victory would be achieved. The balance has tipped.

But already trapped, Li Chengzhi had no intention of moving. He just sat back and waited for the battle to end. Even though the generals beside him had repeatedly warned that it was time to attack, he still looked calm and calm.

I have already agreed with what the eldest sister said in my heart. Dad Li Pingyuan wants to unify the world. He and Li Shaoyun can't sit still in this world. It's just his wishful thinking.

My brother-in-law, when he encounters obstacles, he can be shattered into stacks of obstacles when he ascends the throne. The naval force is not strong, and the snow can freeze the river that has not been frozen for thousands of years, allowing him to march.

This is what the old father will fight for, no matter if he wins this time, if there is another earthquake, flood, etc., what will he use to fight against.

But he didn't dare to turn the gun around. That was his father. Li Pingyuan had been trained since he was a child. The limit of what he could do to listen to his sister's plot and do something small was already the limit.

He didn't dare to stab him in the back. He had a clear mind. What would be the benefit of stabbing his father in the back, a bigger official position?Can he grasp it?

By standing still here, he is helping the second sister. Even if Li Rusi doesn't agree with him afterwards, he is still Li Rusi's younger brother. He can't get high-ranking officials, big salaries, nor can he get glory and wealth?

So I simply put it like this, so that I didn't have to take action against Li Pingyuan, and at the same time, I actually helped the second sister, and even said that it determined the outcome of a battle.

Only the generals are anxious, but that's not all. How long can the two thousand tiger and wolf cavalry last? Looking up, the troops have been led away.

Before they could break into the battlefield, troops with the same shape and equipment as theirs rushed to the battlefield and joined the battlefield.

The troops on the flank were startled at first, which was also the source of the cry of killing. Because they were not clear about the enemy and ourselves, they mistakenly thought they were an army, so they hurriedly responded to the battle.

"This general is Huang Xi, General Zhang Ming. Don't be alarmed. I will support the general's attack in accordance with the Holy Spirit's decree."

After the disaster relief and a few days of rest, Zhuang Xun heard that Li Rusi was attacking Chengguo, so he immediately ordered the five thousand troops to set off and cross the river north to support Li Rusi. He traveled day and night and finally caught up.

The tall and thin Huang Xi had a loud voice, and some people recognized him. After all, it was He Heng who led him and Luo Yuecheng to defeat King Donghua.

"It's really General Huang, it's really General Huang..."

"Reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming..."

Morale was boosted and the words "reinforcements are coming" were passed to the front.

Hearing these words, the tiger and wolf cavalry besieging Li Rusi were shaken, thinking that the commotion was not caused by themselves.

So the defeat was obvious. Even if they didn't defeat, Li Rusi, who had already killed the red, would be unstoppable.

With a wave of his arm, someone was picked off his horse. Armor that could withstand ordinary swords was like a piece of tofu in her eyes.

At least when Huang Xi arrived, Li Rusi had already solved the problem with brute force, and the two thousand tiger and wolf cavalry had been utterly routed.

"Has General Huang brought the Tiance Army? Half of the Chinese army will stay behind to deal with possible attacks, and the other half will charge with the general to seize the city head."

Seizing the command, Li Rusi quickly ordered the arrangements.

She didn't understand why the ambush that was supposed to appear on the other side did not appear. The smell of the battlefield told her that this was an opportunity to attack Chengjun. This wave defeated Chengjun and Chengguo was pacified.

Looking at Li Rusi covered in blood-soaked evil ghost mask, Huang Xi couldn't say no. Only the people in front of her could feel Li Rusi's ferocious aura.

Maybe without her own rescue, Li Rusi would have been the winner. It is said that famous generals in ancient times could defeat a thousand with one horse, so I'm afraid that's what happened.

However, after hearing the words that the reinforcements had arrived, Li Pingyuan began to withdraw his troops. He was wondering if Li Chengzhi did not attack because he discovered the reinforcements. Moreover, Li Pingyuan, who was originally annoyed that Li Chengzhi did not attack, had no time to continue to be annoyed. If he had to fight, he had to withdraw his troops and think about it first.

He wanted to retreat, but Li Rusi didn't want him to. Li Rusi led the Tiance army, leaped forward on horseback, and took advantage of Li Pingyuan's retreat to kill him.

Seeing that he was about to enter Jidu, Li Ping looked at Li Rusi who was unstoppable and unstoppable. He personally cut off the rear and ordered the army to retreat to the city.

There were still a thousand tigers, wolves, and cavalry left for emergency response. Facing more than 2000 Tiance troops, Li Pingyuan did not panic and accepted the challenge calmly. After all, all he had to do was delay, and defense was easier than offense.

He went against the retreating troops to block the Tiance army, and had a clear perception of the chaotic battlefield. He tried to use tiger and wolf cavalry to save most of the troops and the soldiers. The Xia army lacked siege equipment and had a chance to hold on through the winter.

But when the weapon was handed over to Li Rusi's weapon, he realized a problem. Li Rusi became stronger and he became older.

Li Rusi was no longer a little girl. Seeing Li Rusi's fierce appearance, Li Pingyuan suddenly regretted marrying off his daughter.

He had to parry, and the two sides fought back and forth. Compared with Li Rusi when she was a girl, Li Rusi was too strong at this moment, and Li Pingyuan could only hold on.

As for Li Rusi, she was just fighting according to the memory of fighting with Li Pingyuan when she was a child. She couldn't feel her getting stronger, nor could she feel that Li Pingyuan was getting weaker.

So when she didn't expect it, she knocked over Li Pingyuan's spear because she used all her strength.

Next, all he had to do was pierce the spear into Li Pingyuan's chest like an ordinary fighter, but Li Rusi hesitated.

Her hesitation made Li Pingyuan react, turn his horse's head, and gallop back to the city. Since Li Rusi was still there and it was her father, Tiance's army did not dare to pursue her.

Li Rusi was on the spot, holding a gun. When she realized something, her face darkened.
