Chapter 14 The Great Zhao Tieqi's Prestige
"If the king doesn't believe it, I would like to issue a military order!" Worried that Li Chengqian wouldn't trust him, Li Mu said in a deep voice.
After hearing this, Li Chengqian no longer had any doubts. He stood up immediately and came to Li Mu solemnly.
"General Li, there is no need to do this. I trust you, so I will leave everything to General."
"To have such trust from the king, Li Mu will never be repaid with death!"
Li Mu immediately fell to his knees, looking excited.
"Ai Qing, please get up quickly." He pulled Li Mu up and patted Li Mu on the shoulder, saying nothing.
It wasn't until Li Chengqian left for a long time that Li Mu came back to his senses.
If the king is like this, what else can I ask for?
"General, this is what the king ordered me to deliver." A scout delivered the letter.
This secret letter was given to Li Chengqian by the Shadow Death Guards. After reading it, Li Chengqian had someone send it directly to Li Mu without saying a word.
Since Li Mu is fully responsible for the war, Li Chengqian will never break his promise.
He believed in Li Mu and understood that Li Mu knew how to arrange things better than he did.
After reading the content of the letter, Li Mu pondered for a moment and then paid attention.
The letter stated that Lin Tie, the pioneer general of the Xuanfeng Dynasty, would arrive at Huangfeng City at noon tomorrow with an army of 100,000.
"Come here, bring me the map." Li Mu had already had a preliminary idea just now, but he still needed to confirm it again.
"Okay, this is it!" Suddenly Li Mu slammed his fist hard on the map.
This place is called Huangfeng Plain...
Early the next morning, in a corner of Huangfeng Plain, a group of cavalry was quietly hiding here.
As we all know, the Tang Dynasty and the surrounding countries did not have cavalry. Therefore, Li Mu's 30,000 cavalry were truly amazing troops!
No matter how hard the generals of the Xuanfeng Dynasty tried to think of it, they would not have thought that a cavalry force from the Tang Dynasty would ambush them here.
Just imagine, a defenseless infantry regiment encounters an extremely powerful cavalry regiment, what a scene...
Gee, it’s really conceivable...
"General, the Xuanfeng Dynasty's forward army is expected to arrive at Huangfeng Plain in half an hour."
After a while, the scout Pegasus came to report.
"Okay, let's explore again!"
Li Mu's expression was indifferent, without any sense of nervousness that the battle was about to begin, and his general's style was undoubtedly revealed.
About half an hour later, a large flag with the word "Lin" gradually appeared on the Huangfeng Plain.
"Report! General, the enemy's vanguard has arrived at Huangfeng Plain." Another scout Pegasus came to report.
After hearing the news, Li Mu did not hesitate and immediately ordered: "Okay, the order goes down. When all the enemy's rear troops enter the Huangfeng Plain, the army will launch an attack immediately!"
"promise."
After a while, the scouts came to report that all the Xuanfeng Dynasty's forward army had entered the Huangfeng Plain.
"The great Zhao cavalry obeys the order! Follow me to kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
…
For a time, the warriors were as fierce as a tiger!
On the huge yellow wind plain, wolf smoke billows, dust rises, and horse hooves burst out with such force that the whole ground is shaking.
"No, it's cavalry. Stop the army immediately!" A deputy general from the Xuanfeng Dynasty said in shock when he heard the ground shaking.
"How is it possible? How could the Tang Dynasty have cavalry?" Except for the deputy general who exclaimed, everyone else didn't believe it.
"I have fought with barbarians on the grassland. I can tell that the sound is definitely a large-scale cavalry attack!"
The former deputy general was very sure and still insisted on his opinion.
"What are you all doing here? Why don't you keep moving forward?" The visitor yelled angrily. He was tall and tall, wearing precious armor and majestic. It was Lin Tie, the vanguard general of the Xuanfeng Dynasty's former army.
"General Hui Lin, there are cavalry coming towards our troops, my subordinates are brave, please general, please immediately order the army to be on guard."
The deputy general looked solemn and spoke urgently to persuade him.
"Haha, are you kidding me? Not to mention the Tang Dynasty, there are nearly ten dynasties around here, big and small. Which one has cavalry?"
Lin Tie simply ignored what the deputy general said, smiled wildly, and shouted loudly: "Back off, if you dare to speak nonsense again, you will be killed without mercy! The army continues to advance without making any mistakes!"
"General, I..."
"Um?"
Under Lin Tie's intense gaze, the deputy general had no choice but to retreat and did not dare to persuade him.
With a sigh in his heart, the deputy general began to look away, looking for a way out. The deputy general had decided that when the cavalry arrived, he would take advantage of the chaos to escape.
"Hey, what is this sound?"
At this time, the Great Zhao Cavalry was already approaching, and only then did Lin Tie realize that something was wrong.
"General, it's cavalry, it's cavalry!" The unbelieving lieutenants who just saw the countless cavalry army immediately panicked and said anxiously.
"What? Really a cavalry? How is that possible?"
Until this moment, Lin Tie still didn't believe in the existence of cavalry, but the cruel reality was before his eyes, and Lin Tie was dumbfounded.
Yes, a dynasty general was as confused as an ordinary soldier at this moment.
Without Lin Tie's order, the soldiers did not know what to do. The entire Xuanfeng Dynasty army was like a piece of scattered sand at this moment, the soldiers were in a panic, and there was no one to command them.
As a result, even Li Mu, who was leading the army at the front, was a little confused as to what the opponent's general's tactics were.
The cavalry had already reached the opposite side, but the opposite side didn't even have the most basic infantry defensive formation. Isn't this a way of looking down on Li Mu?
Li Mu suddenly felt a sudden burst of unknown anger. He wanted to kill like crazy until the enemy general did not dare to look down on him anymore!
Little did they know that Lin Tie, the commander-in-chief on the opposite side, had been frightened by his 30,000 cavalry.
In this way, a wonderful misunderstanding was born. If Lin Tie knew about it, he would definitely cry out...
It was too late, but it was too late. Li Mu took the lead. Before Lin Tie could regain his senses, he slashed down with his sword. Lin Tie failed to dodge in time and was killed by Li Mu's formation.
"Hmph, how dare such a loser ignore Yu?" Until Lin Tie's death, Li Mu thought that Lin Tie looked down on him...
"Your general is dead. Surrender without killing him!" Li Mu picked up Lin Tie's head and shouted loudly in shock.
"What? General Lin Tie is the top master of the ninth level of Xingyin. How could he be killed with a sword?"
Before the lieutenants could recover from their previous shock, they received another bolt from the blue.
Even Lin Tie died at the hands of the enemy general, what could they do?
As the saying goes, silence is better than death. If the soldiers have no will to fight and the generals have no will to fight, how can we fight?
In an instant, 30,000 Zhao cavalry descended from the mountain like fierce tigers, killing countless soldiers on the opposite side with thunderous momentum.
"Soldiers, General Lin Tie was attacked and killed by an enemy general. We must swear not to surrender! He is a man. Follow me and come forward to avenge General Lin Tie!"
However, it was the deputy general who had previously believed that there were cavalry who suddenly spoke up to encourage morale.
"Yes, I swear to the death and will not surrender! I swear to avenge General Lin Tie!"...
For a time, the crowd became excited, and some people who had originally planned to surrender regained their fighting spirit and charged forward to fight.
