Chapter 418 Luo Cheng's Death
"Luo Cheng is committed to revenge and aggressive, so he has a strong background, but he is also prone to make the mistake of rushing forward lightly. As long as he lures him with tricks, he will definitely be captured." Zhao Xin said to Ji Chuan.

To Zhao Xinzhi's words, Ji Chuan was noncommittal, while Li Chongjiu nodded and asked, "How do you think to annihilate Luo Cheng's army? You must know that although the opponent is small in number, all of his subordinates are from Youzhou iron cavalry, so hundreds of cavalry should not be ignored. , to be estimated tenfold."

Zhao Xin cupped his hands and said, "Dou Jiande's men and horses went north, but they are still stationed in Huxian County, while Luo Cheng is eager for revenge, and the Youzhou Iron Cavalry is certainly elite. But it has violated the big taboo of going deep alone, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

"Then why don't you know that this is Dou Jiande's trick to lure the enemy? Using Luo Cheng as a bait to lure our army southward and move away from Youzhou." Ji Chuan asked back.

Zhao Xin smiled and said: "It's simple, as long as my lord is willing to send out the cavalry of Shi Dexi's department, with the speed of the cavalry, and return the blow with one blow, it will be fine."

Li Chongjiu glanced at Zhao Xin. Since the start of the war, the Prairie Fanqi has not appeared in Zhuo County. Everyone speculates whether something has changed in the grassland. After all, there is news that the Turks are going to attack Huaihuang Town almost every month.Many people and soldiers in Zhuo County also thought that this time the Youzhou Army's usual strong support, the Prairie Fanqi, might not be able to reach the battlefield of the decisive battle with Dou Jiande.

Where is Prairie Fanqi?Except for Li Chongjiu, no one in Youzhou knew the truth.

General Xue Wanche said: "Your Majesty, why do you need to use grassland cavalry to deal with Luo Cheng? In the end, the general asks for orders to fight, and the thief will be captured alive!"

Ji Chuan objected: "General Xue is guarding Youzhou, don't move lightly."

"A mere Luo Cheng, what is there to worry about, I treat him like a chicken and a dog."

These words are quite arrogant, everyone regards them, but the person who spoke is Guo Xiaoke.

Li Chongjiu looked at the other party and said with a smile: "General Guo, when you first came to the army, you didn't know how powerful Luo Cheng was. Back then in the battle of Zhuojun, Luo Cheng led 3000 soldiers and killed [-] of my troops head-on. I still want to come here. I'm still terrified."
Guo Xiaoke shook his head and said, "What kind of skill is this?"

When everyone saw Guo Xiaoke's boastful words, they couldn't help being unhappy.Immediately, Ji Chuan asked: "If General Guo wants to eliminate Luo Cheng, how many troops will he need?"

Guo Xiaoke raised his right hand and stretched out three fingers.

Li Chongjiu murmured: "Three thousand, no matter what, I will ask General Wu Gunai, who is stationed in Anping County, to lead the army to cooperate with you. Just remember to repel Luo Cheng, not to go deep."

Guo Xiaoke smiled and said, "I'm not talking about three thousand, but three hundred."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone gasped, Xue Wanche sneered and said: "Don't make big words, although Luo Cheng only has hundreds of Qingqi around him, they are not easy to capture. Haven't you heard? In the battle of the county, Luo Yi encircled the king with heavy troops, and it was Luo Cheng who led 3000 soldiers to defeat the interception of our army of [-], so he stood out from the encirclement."

Regardless of Xue Wanche's words, Guo Xiaoke said: "I don't want elites among these 300 people, but 200 of them should ride horses."

This time even Chen Xiaoyi couldn't help it, and said: "General Guo, isn't it a joke to be in the army?"

"Greetings to issue a military order."

After Guo Xiaoke finished speaking, he took a pen and paper, scribbled, and said: "If Luo Cheng is not captured, I am willing to punish him."

After finishing speaking, Guo Xiaoke clasped his fists at Li Chongjiu, and said: "Do you believe me or not?"

Li Chongjiu received the military order and said directly: "Mobilize 300 people to General Guo, and the rest can be taken as needed."

Everyone didn't take it seriously, Guo Xiaoke looked around at everyone and sneered.

At that moment, Guo Xiaoke clasped his fists and left, Li Chongjiu looked at the back of the other party and nodded slightly.

Guo Xiaoke came to Youzhou for a few months, and he let him go to idle work, and never entrusted him with important positions.Now use this aggressive method.Li Chongjiu wants to see if this famous general of Li Tang in history can still be cultivated by him.

At present, Guo Xiaoke led 300 people from the south gate of Jixian County and went straight to Anci County.A day later, Guo Xiaoke arrived at the foot of Anci County.

Outside Anci County, Luo Cheng's Xia army only had more than 300 cavalry, but they took thousands of captured civilians and piled up dirt beside the city to attack the city.

The gates of the defenders were closed tightly and they dared not go out. Dozens of corpses were left outside the gates, all of which were the clothes of Youzhou soldiers who fought in the city.Now the rural soldiers guarding the city only dare to wait and see from the top of the city, but dare not go out of the city.

Guo Xiaoke remembered that there were nearly a thousand soldiers in the city, but now he didn't dare to take the first step, and he couldn't even clean up the corpse of Pao Ze, obviously he was terrified by being beaten by Luo Cheng.

Guo Xiaoke said to the people behind him: "You all change out of the clothes of the government soldiers, and put on the clothes of the country soldiers for me."

"Why is this so, general?" The three hundred cavalry behind him were all government soldiers, and they were not happy to be asked to change into village soldiers' clothes.

Guo Xiaoke glanced sideways at the other party, raised his horsewhip and lashed at the other party's head, shouting: "I told you to do it, so do it, what nonsense are you talking about?"

After talking about Guo Xiaoke's 100 cavalry soldiers, they all changed into the civilian clothes of the village soldiers, and ordered the other [-] people to do the same.

Afterwards, Guo Xiaoke led his men on horseback to the city.It took two hundred cavalrymen to appear, and Luo Cheng's men immediately spotted each other.

This is also no way, the North China Plain, a map of the plains, the army appears, and the movement of the opponent can be found within a dozen miles.

Guo Xiaoke, wearing two armors and waving a spear, rode forward to the front of the formation.

Guo Xiaoke looked left and right, and said, "Which one is Luo Cheng, come out and answer."

In the opposing army, a white-robed general rode out and said: "Even if you know the prestige of my Luo family general, you should retreat quickly and come to die."
Guo Xiaoke laughed and said: "What general of the Luo family, bah, I heard that Marquis Jingbian died in Liaodong, and I don't want to go home to have a baby. Do you want the Luo family to have no successor?"

Here Luo Cheng heard his teeth chattering.

Guo Xiaoke sneered and said: "There are three kinds of unfilial piety. Having no offspring is the greatest. The Marquis of Jingbian can be regarded as a famous man for the rest of his life. I didn't expect to give birth to this son, but he is such a bastard."

Seeing that Luo Cheng was angry, the general at the side stepped forward and said: "General, the enemy's sudden approach must be deceitful. This is the way to provoke the general to lure you into being fooled."

Luo Cheng's face turned red, and he shouted: "This place is flat, there are no ambushes, wait until I kill this thief."

After speaking, Luo Cheng single-handedly stepped forward and shouted: "If you can go ten rounds under my command, I, Luo Cheng, will immediately draw my sword and kill myself. Do you dare to fight?"

Guo Xiaoke laughed and said, "Little Huangkou, I was afraid of you coming."

After finishing speaking, Guo Xiaoke waved a spear in his hand and stepped forward in person.Luo Cheng roared angrily, and drew his gun to meet him.The soldiers on both sides blew their horns to cheer for their respective masters.

Guo Xiaoke used an iron spear, while Luo Cheng used a Zhangwu red spear, and the two horses joined forces four or five times in a row.

Luo Cheng became more and more energetic during the Yuezhan, while Guo Xiaoke was out of breath, let alone ten rendezvous, it was difficult to survive the next rendezvous.

Guo Xiaoke saw that he couldn't afford it, and immediately pulled up his horse and left. As he walked, he shouted on the horse: "There are ambushes in front of me, do you dare to chase them?"

Say that and pull the gun and leave.

Luo Cheng said with a sneer, "If you didn't say there was an ambush, I wouldn't have waited to pursue it. Since you said so, I would like to see where the ambush is?"

Luo Cheng said so, and the deputy general said: "General, this thief is deceitful, so he must lie in ambush."

Luo Cheng waved his gun and said with a smile: "In such a plain, you can know it at a glance. Even if there are ambushes on all sides, what's the fear?"

After finishing speaking, Luo Cheng straddled his horse and came straight after him, the lieutenant complained secretly, so he could only lead Qingqi to catch up.

Luo Cheng drove the horse and chased after Guo Xiaoke.The cavalry around Guo Xiaoke were all scattered, Luo Cheng and the others ignored him, and led a dozen bodyguards to stare at Guo Xiaoke and chase after him.

The two horses chased after each other, Luo Cheng's crotch was a good horse from the Western Regions, galloping like flying, Guo Xiaoke's crotch horse, although it was a good horse, but how close it was.Guo Xiaoke was chased by Luo Cheng to only a dozen feet.

Seeing Guo Xiaoke take the bow quietly from the horse, Luo Cheng sneered from the bottom of his heart, but slowed down the horse and put on all his energy.

At this time, Guo Xiaoke in front of him suddenly turned his head and shouted: "Little thief, look at the arrow!"

There was a sound of the bowstring snapping, and Luo Cheng immediately covered the spear forward, but no arrows were seen flying towards him.

"Good thief, are these methods?"

Guo Xiaoke said with a smile: "You don't know the methods of the uncle, do you?"

Then Guo Xiaoke yelled again and again, but only heard the bowstring break, but no arrow was shot.

"The thief's skills are poorer than this."

Just as Luo Cheng said so.

"Look at the arrow!" Guo Xiaoke shouted, turned around and shot another arrow.

This time, the arrow was on the string, and the shot was vicious and tricky, and it came straight for Luo Cheng's face.When there was no time, Luo Cheng hid in a stirrup and turned his head to avoid the arrow.

Seeing that the other party is so despicable, Luo Cheng is secretly furious, and immediately urges the horse to chase even more urgently.

Before he knew it, Luo Cheng chased him for several miles, and all the chasing riders around him lost their horsepower one after another.

The two came to a reed bush. The reed was very short and the ground was full of mud. Luo Cheng was worried that the horse's hoof would be stuck and he dared not go deep, so he parked his horse beside the reed.

"Haha, Luo Cheng, do you dare to chase me?" Guo Xiaoke drove straight in.

Although Luo Cheng wanted to kill Guo Xiaoke, he was not reckless, so he had no choice but to give up.

But at this moment, when Lu Wei came from the middle, the other party yelled: "It's not good."

Luo Cheng looked over, but saw that the other party's horse's hoof fell into the mud accidentally, and the whole person also fell from the horse's back and fell into the mud, unable to struggle.

Luo Cheng couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw it. He abandoned his horse and went straight into the reeds with a spear in his hand.

Seeing that there were dozens of steps away from Guo Xiaoke, he suddenly stepped on the ground and fell into a huge pit.

Luo Cheng was secretly startled, but Guo Xiaoke's loud laughter came from the side.

When Luo Cheng's soldiers saw him, they immediately rode their horses to rescue him.

Among the reeds, dozens of crossbowmen suddenly stood up together.They held light crossbows and fired arrows at once. The five or six cavalry who wanted to rescue Luo Cheng were caught off guard and shot them all.

Afterwards, these people stepped forward together, raised the light crossbow in their hands, and pointed it at Luo Cheng who was tied in the mud.

All arrows fired!

Immediately, the whole body was formed, and in the mud, it was shot into a hornet's nest.
