Will Ming

Chapter 480 Why is it so?

"Without a trace of regret, it is total victory."

Wu Tianxi said loudly: "So, if I don't fight with you, I have regrets, and it can't be considered a complete victory. One is to pity you, and the other is to fulfill myself."

Su Dingfang was startled, then urged his horse forward and said: "Then I will behead you to be buried with you first!"

Wu Tianxi laughed loudly, broke free from the support of the soldiers, and walked towards Su Dingfang slowly, although his footsteps were unsteady, he kept going forward!

The moment Su Dingfang urged his horse forward, Li Chenyi suddenly rushed out from Su Dingfang's side first, and pulled the reins of Su Dingfang's war horse when he rushed past Su Dingfang, the horse stopped immediately for some reason, and He took the lead and shouted to Wu Tianxi: "Why do you need the general to do it, I will kill this guy!"

He galloped forward, and when he rushed in front of Wu Tianxi, he leaned forward, stretched out the horizontal knife in his hand, and slashed towards Wu Tianxi's throat with his inertia.It came down so fast that even Su Dingfang was taken aback.But Wu Tianxi's attention was all on Su Dingfang, and he didn't expect that Li Chen would suddenly appear in a short while.

Cursing shamelessly in his heart, Wu Tianxi lowered his body suddenly, and Li Chenyi's horizontal knife slashed on Wu Tianxi's helmet with a bang, Wu Tianxi was knocked backward by the inertia, but still lost his center of gravity. Responding, the moment he fell down, the horizontal knife stabbed violently to the side, and then let go of the hand that was holding the horizontal knife tightly.

With a bang, the horizontal knife pierced fiercely into the horse's stomach.The war horse wailed, and its hooves limp and fell to the ground with a thud.As soon as Li Chen on horseback was thrown out and hit the ground heavily, he chopped off Wu Tianxi's helmet, and the rope on the helmet left a bloodstain on Wu Tianxi's neck, and he hit his head down hard. On the ground, the helmet was knocked off, and the head was rubbed on the bluestone road, and a layer of skin immediately fell off.

Wu Tianxi also fell very hard this time, took a breath on the ground but managed to stand up, and limped towards Li Chenyi who was lying on the ground.

"So the people under Dou Jiande are all so despicable and shameless?"

Wu Tianxi smiled, opened his mouth, and a stream of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

Li Chenyi groaned in pain after half of his face was rubbed off, and tried to stand up on the ground with trembling arms.The anger in Wu Tianxi's heart has long been burning, how will he be given a chance to stand up?He dragged the leg that had a bloody hole stabbed by the spear, walked over slowly but firmly, walked up to Li Chenyi, held Li Chenyi's head with both hands and twisted it violently.With a click, Li Chen, whose neck was broken, let out a muffled snort.As soon as Wu Tianxi let go, Li Chenyi's body fell limply.

The neck bone was twisted, Li Chen shook his whole body a few times, a stream of blood spilled from his mouth, and died.

The war horse whose stomach had been pierced fell to the ground and was still whining unceasingly, kicking around but couldn't stand up again.Wu Tianxi walked over slowly, and pulled out the horizontal knife still stuck in the horse's belly.He turned around and looked at Su Dingfang with disdain and contempt in his eyes.

"It is said that Su Dingfang is a brave general who is good at fighting, so this is how he won?"

He said these words in a low voice, but it made Su Dingfang feel ashamed and uncomfortable like being slapped hard on the face.He wanted to explain something, but he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.In any case, what Li Chenyi did was disgraceful. The most shameful thing was that he was killed despite being a sneak attack.

Wu Tianxi looked at Su Dingfang, and said word by word: "Since you have nothing to say, then stand up your horse!"

Su Dingfang gripped the lever, he looked at the bloody General Yanyunzhai with an indescribable feeling in his heart.He knew that the general on the opposite side had reached the end of his strength, and it might not be difficult to kill him by himself, but what would it mean by killing him at this time?Everyone present would not think that Su Dingfang was superb in martial arts, but that Su Dingfang was a despicable villain, a villain who took advantage of others' dangers.

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, the soldiers of Yanyun Village who were surrounding them separated a passage.Xu Shiji, the military strategist of Yanyun Village holding a long spear, urged his horse to come over. He glanced at Wu Tianxi and said, "Go back and bandage first, your life is more precious than all your enemies combined."

Wu Tianxi glanced at Xu Shiji, turned his head and walked back without saying anything.

When he walked in front of the more than 100 heavy-armored Mo Dao Shou, the more than 100 Mo Dao Shoun suddenly stood up neatly, and then they clenched their fists with one hand and beat their own breastplate with a uniform cracking sound.They didn't say a word, just kept repeating this action.But Wu Tianxi knew that they were expressing their respect for him. He was about to say something, but before he opened his mouth, he saw all the soldiers of the Yanyun Army surrounding Xia Army standing up straight, or beating the guns in their hands with horizontal knives. Infantry shields, or beating their own breastplate with their fists like Mo Dao Shou, more and more soldiers joined the ranks, and the sound of slapping became louder and louder, gradually becoming like hundreds of war drums beating together magnificent.

Wu Tianxi's eyes turned red, and his heart felt warm as if he had drunk a pot of strong wine.

"Yanyun Village!"

He clenched his fists violently and let out a loud cry.

"Definitely!"

All the soldiers of the Yanyun Army shouted at the same time.

……

……

"I once heard that among Xia Wang Dou Jiande's generals, there are three people who are the most admirable. Not only are they outstanding in martial arts, but they also have a deep understanding of the art of war. The other one is you, General Su. I also heard that General Su tried hard to persuade Dou Jiande before he went south, which shows that General Su has already seen that Dou Jiande will definitely lose this time."

Xu Shiji clasped his fists at Su Dingfang and said.

Su Dingfang pushed up the visor, and carefully looked at the enemy not far in front of him who had driven him into a corner. He had heard a long time ago that Xu Maogong of Yanyun Village was an earth-shattering talent. When Wagangzhai was training troops, the combat power of Wagangzhai was considered to be the leader among all the heroes in the Green Forest Road.Later, after arriving at Yanyun Village, he made outstanding achievements repeatedly, and his name has long been known on both sides of the Yellow River.

It was only the first time to see Xu Shiji's appearance clearly, even though Su Dingfang had heard about it, he still had to secretly praise him.

Although this young man was wearing an iron armor, he couldn't hide his bookish air.

"I have heard the name of Master Xu for a long time, and I don't want to meet today."

"But I don't want to meet General Su on such an occasion. The man just now is Wu Tianxi, the tiger general of my Yanyun Village, and General Su is also unduly brave. When two tigers fight, one must be injured, and Wu Tianxi is too injured. Naturally, I can't just watch my subordinates die in needless battles."

"He is a hero, even if he died in battle today, it would be an honor even though he died."

Su Dingfang praised.

"My lord once said that the most nonsensical sentence at this time is that death is an honor. If a person dies, what is the meaning of the greatest glory? Why do people fight for a good future? Glory It is the glory of the living, and the glory after death is of no use."

Su Dingfang was startled, and said with a wry smile: "King Yan's words are amazing."

He raised his head and said: "As a soldier, the greatest honor is to kill horse leather shrouds. How can you say that there is no glory after death? I don't agree with King Yan's words."

Xu Shiji smiled and said: "As the general said, it is an honor to shroud the general's body in horse leather. It depends on why you die and who you die for."

"You protect King Yan, I protect King Xia."

Su Dingfang said: "I naturally die for King Xia, although I have no regrets."

Xu Shiji nodded in praise and said: "The general is loyal, but... Dou Jiande is sorry for the general's loyalty. Just yesterday, all the soldiers in Dou Jiande's army had withdrawn to the north, and the general's vanguard army was ordered to attack Yuncheng. Don't the general feel a little chilled to work for such a lord?"

Su Dingfang's expression changed, but he calmed down quickly: "Don't you feel that the military master has slandered my lord so much?"

"I have the odds of winning."

Xu Shiji smiled and said: "Why lie to you? If I didn't feel sorry for the general's loyalty and bravery, I just waved my hand. Could any of the general and his soldiers survive? The reason why I didn't order you to besiege and kill you was because my lord went north. He once told me that General Su was a rare hero in the world, and it would be a pity if he died like this. General Zhongyi couldn’t bear to abandon Dou Jiande, but Dou Jiande had the heart to abandon General. If you are willing to surrender to my Yanyun Village, it’s not just your subordinates. These soldiers don't have to die in battle to have a good future."

"Thanks to King Yan's promotion!"

Su Dingfang clasped his fists and said, "It's just that King Xia has shown me the grace to know you. Before I met King Xia, I was just a wild man in the mountains. King Xia knew me and trusted me. How could I turn my back on King Xia and surrender in order not to die?" King Xia’s enemy? King Yan is an outstanding person in the world, and so is King Xia, you and I, the masters, the military adviser should not persuade you.”

He said solemnly: "It's just that today, my defeat is doomed and I have no power to recover. I have a heartless request, and I hope the military commander can agree. I am the general of the vanguard army. I am responsible for today's battle. The military commander can dispose of it as he pleases." I, but begged for mercy on the soldiers trapped inside and outside the city."

"If the general is willing to surrender, everything is easy to talk about."

Xu Shiji said indifferently: "Some ambitious men want to gain fame and career on horseback, but if they don't follow the right person, not to mention fame and career, even their wealth and life may not be guaranteed. The general is not a person who is ignorant of current affairs, On the contrary, he is still a very smart person. Didn’t the general think of something strange before he attacked? Counting the cities, Dou Jiande has long since intended to retreat, and the general has already seen it."

"He... is my master after all!"

Su Dingfang looked to the north, then smiled and said: "Actually, I should thank the King of Yan. If it weren't for the benevolence of the King of Yan, it would be difficult for me to meet my wife again in this life. This is a great kindness to me, Su Dingfang! A man!
