Horse on the World

Chapter 431 A Dogfight

After Li Qing met up with the two cavalry battalions of the Changsheng Division, he did not see Jiang Kui, the highest commander of the Changsheng Division. The trace is gone!"

Li Qing was surprised for a while, and then suddenly realized, it seems that someone told this guy in advance of his statement a few days ago, this kid went out to avoid disaster, and wanted to wait for his anger to disappear before reappearing, he didn't speak at the moment, just looked up to the sky to say haha , but there was no smile on his face, instead it was so gloomy that it seemed like water would drip out, which made Wang Yan and Tian Xinyu's heart skip a beat.

After leaving the tent, Wang Yan and Tian Xinyu exchanged winks, and Tian Xinyu secretly rode out of the camp and galloped all the way to the north. Li Qing, who heard Tang Hu's return, smiled slightly, "This is for you!" That brat Jiang Kuina went to tip off the news."

Sure enough, in the evening, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes outside the camp, and hundreds of cavalry rushed into the camp. Li Qingduan sat in the big tent, chatting happily with Tian Feng, without even looking at him, his head lowered, his upper body naked, Jiang Kui with a bunch of thorns on his back.

Glancing at the commander secretly, seeing that the commander never even looked at him from the corner of his eyes, Jiang Kui became even more terrified, walked up to Li Qing quietly, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Commander, Jiang Kui is back Already!"

Hearing the voice, Li Qing turned his head and looked surprised, "Hey, isn't this General Jiang, my brave champion of the three armies? Why, have you found any information about the Satyr cavalry?"

With a face full of shame, Jiang Kui untied the thorn, held it in both hands and handed it to Li Qing: "Commander, I made a mistake, please punish me, Commander!"

Li Qing snatched the thorn, "General Jiang, how dare you ignore my military orders?"

"I dare not disobey the command of the commander-in-chief. It's just that when I see the fight on the battlefield, my blood boils. I can't control myself. As soon as my head gets hot, I rush forward!" Jiang Kui said with wide eyes.

Li Qing was furious, and with a bang, he was struck down with a thorn. Jiang Kui shook his body, and there was a bloodstain immediately, but he straightened up immediately, "I can't control myself, who are you, are you always Commander Shengshi, commanding tens of thousands of people, you are so hot-headed that you can't control yourself, where do you put tens of thousands of soldiers?" The more you said, the more angry you became, as soon as you raised your arm, you were about to pull it down again, Tian Feng on one side suddenly, Nuo Qi'a couldn't sit still anymore, the two rushed to the front and knelt down together, Tang Hu also rushed out from behind Li Qing, knelt down in front of Li Qing, grabbed Li Qing's arm with both hands, and said loudly: "Master, sir! Handsome, Xiao Jiang has such a temperament, you know it, he already knew he was wrong, so please forgive him this time!"

Tian Feng also said loudly: "Commander, General Jiang violated the military order. As the deputy commander, I am also responsible. Please punish the commander together!"

Li Qing took a deep breath, threw the thorn on the ground, and sat back angrily. Tian Feng poked Jiang Kui, who was still stupefied, and Jiang Kui finally realized, "Thank you, Commander."

Li Qing sneered and said, "Thank you for what I did? Don't you like to fight? It's very good. From today onwards, Tian Feng will be the commander of the Changsheng Division. You will be demoted to the deputy commander of the Changsheng Division and lead the Whirlwind Battalion. I will let you Kill enough to go!"

Tian Feng was startled, and raised his head, "Commander, please take back your order. Tian Feng is willing to assist General Jiang with all his heart, and never do such a thing like before!"

Li Qing waved his hand, "I've made up my mind, there's no need to say any more, Jiang Kui, what's your opinion?"

Jiang Kui had a smile on his face, "Thank you, Commander, hahaha, now you can fight boldly without worrying about disobeying military orders, Lao Tian, ​​you will have to worry more about Chang Sheng in the future!"

Tian Feng couldn't laugh or cry, but Li Qing was furious again, and jumped up, "You mud that can't support the wall!" He kicked Jiang Kui down with a flying kick, and was about to kick him hard again Tang Hu already hugged Li Qingfei's thigh, Tian Feng hugged Li Qing's waist, Nuo Qia took the opportunity to drag Jiang Kui and walked out, "Go out and avoid it, the commander is not good this time!" I’m really angry!” Jiang Kui ran out of the tent, and the soldiers outside couldn’t help being surprised. There was a bloodstain on General Jiang’s body, and the boss’s foot was printed on him. It was obvious that he was taken care of by the commander, so he laughed so hard so happy?

Li Qingyu sat back angrily. Jiang Kui was a general he had worked hard to cultivate, but after all, he was only a material for a fierce general. It was really beyond his power to independently preside over one aspect of the war. In this account, not to mention Tian Feng, Even Nuo Qi'a's view of the overall situation is much stronger than his, Li Qing couldn't help but feel a little headache.

"General Tian, ​​Jiang Kui is really not the material for a general. I won't stay in the northern front for too long. You have to worry about this northern war in the future." Li Qing turned to Tian Feng.

"Don't worry, Commander. Commander treats me like a national soldier, and I will repay it with death!" Tian Feng was extremely excited. How long has he been in Dingzhou, but Commander Li handed over the most elite troops in Dingzhou to himself, He also entrusted a commander-in-chief. This trust made him feel that there was really no other way to thank him other than repaying him with death.

"What nonsense?" Li Qing said with a smile: "What I want is that you continue to bring me victories. If you are not competent, I will replace you without hesitation!"

"Commander, look at me!" Tian Feng said loudly, "I will use the entire northern territory to thank Commander for his kindness!"

"Okay!" Li Qing glanced at him appreciatively, "Let's discuss the next battle! Tian Feng, tell me!"

"Yes, Commander. Although the soldiers in Luzhou are terrible, and the generals in command are not excellent, they are just mediocre, but Luzhou City, as the capital of Luzhou, is a strong and tall city. If we fight hard, we will pay for it." The price will be very high, which is inconsistent with our initial combat strategy, so, for Luzhou, I plan to encircle and not fight!"

"Is this a stalemate?" Nuo Qi'a said, "If we don't take down Luzhou City, it will be difficult for us to go north with confidence!"

Li Qing smiled, "General Nuo, listen to General Tian carefully!"

Tian Feng said with a smile: "Under our blitz, Xu Hongwei, the general of Luzhou, was frightened out of his wits, so he is still holding on to the city, but relying on the help of the Lu family in the north. The rescuers are routed and wiped out, and he has no reliance to stick to Luzhou City. With his personality, what else can he do besides surrender to us?"

Nuoqia suddenly realized, "First destroy the Lu cavalry who came to support, and then turn around to force Xu Hongwei to surrender. In this way, we can take this big city without a single soldier."

Tian Feng nodded and said: "Exactly, the Lu family's Sartre cavalry who did not come to support Luzhou is not a soft persimmon. This is the most courageous cavalry in the hands of the northern Lu family. This army was taken away and deployed on the border of Luzhou, and now I am afraid that it is advancing towards Luzhou day and night."

Li Qingdao: "Everyone, defeating this cavalry will not only force Xu Hongwei to surrender, but more importantly, after it is wiped out, the Lu family in the north will no longer have a mobile force that can be mobilized on a large scale. Fighting is very important, so I order!"

Tian Feng, Nuoqia, and Wang Yan all stood up.

"Tian Feng is stationed at the foot of Luzhou City, deploying affairs for the besieged city, Nuo Qi'a [-] barbarian cavalry, Jiang Kui's whirlwind battalion, Wang Yan's Changsheng battalion, plus my [-] personal guards to face Sartre's cavalry. The cavalry was defeated in one battle."

"Follow the order!" Everyone responded loudly.

Three days later, in an unnamed small village, a war broke out suddenly. Neither side expected to collide like this.

At that time, the sky was thundering and lightning, and the rain was pouring heavily. Within a few feet, the companions could no longer be seen. The roar of thunder and the sound of rain covered all the sounds. meet suddenly.Nuoqia's barbarian cavalry were on the front line. When they suddenly saw the Satyr cavalry in front of them, both sides were stunned. Their first reaction was to rein in their horses and look at each other, and then let out a cry. Shouting, both sides turned their horses around and galloped back.

Nuoqia only had less than [-] vanguard cavalry on hand. When he heard the report from the sentry cavalry, he bowed his head and pondered for a moment, then summoned the messenger loudly and ordered him to find the large army immediately and report the military situation to the commander.

"General, what should we do, do we want to retreat and join the commander in chief?" A general beside him asked.

"Retreat?" Nuoqia sneered, "The whole army is ready to attack!"

"General Nuo!" The general was startled, "Now our army is in such a mess, the rain is so heavy, the soldiers can't find the generals, the generals can't find the soldiers, how can we fight?"

Nuo Qia said resolutely: "We are chaotic, and the opponent is probably even more chaotic than us. We meet on a narrow road and the brave wins. Tell every soldier that there is no command and no tactics in this battle. Let me rush up and hack and kill as much as you want!"

Less than five miles away from Nuoqia, it was the Lu family Sater cavalry who came to support Luzhou. The leading generals were Hu Ge, a famous warrior of the Sa Te tribe, and Lu Huiqing, a member of the Lu clan. , The two were also shocked. They originally thought that at this time, Dingzhou troops should be besieging Luzhou City. Could it be that Luzhou City was captured by Dingzhou so soon?The two were puzzled.

"Rectify the soldiers and horses and prepare for the battle!" Hu Ge looked up at the still rainy sky, and Hu Ge felt a little depressed. Like Nuoqia opposite, the sudden heavy rain made his army lose its formation.

The different decisions of the generals of the two sides at this moment finally turned what should have been an evenly matched battle into a one-sided massacre. , The barbarian cavalry rushed up like wolves and tigers, without formation and organization, just like a honeycomb that exploded, brandishing machetes, spears, and big knives, rushed into the ranks of the Satyr cavalry middle.

The effect of bows and arrows at this time is very small, but the hand crossbow that Li Qing allocated to the barbarians has exerted great lethality. During the handover, Manqi still took the initiative.Before the two of Hu Ge could react, the wild cavalry led by Nuo Qia had already penetrated deeply into the ranks of the Satyr cavalry.
