When Su Buyan heard what Gao Fei said, he thought about it carefully and then asked: "How much commission will you pay?"
Gao Fei believed that although money is not everything in this world, nothing is impossible without money. The Wuhuan people lived mostly in barren lands ceded by the imperial court, so their lives were relatively poor. He smiled and stretched out
He held out five fingers and said loudly: "Your Majesty only needs to lend me five thousand cavalry, and I will give you five hundred catties of gold."
Su Buyan was moved. Five hundred kilograms of gold was definitely not a small amount for him. He slapped his thigh and agreed immediately, shouting: "Okay, I will lend you five thousand cavalry. However,
Before we reach an agreement, you must defeat my strongest warriors in public. Otherwise, even if I lend you five thousand Rangers, they may not be willing to obey your command."
Gao Fei had no choice but to refuse to agree to this matter. Su Buyan had already made his words very clear. He stood up, cupped his hands towards Su Buyan and said: "Since this is the rule of the Wuhuan people, I will abide by this rule. Why?
When does the fight start?”
Seeing that Gao Fei agreed readily, Su Puyan laughed and said: "What's the rush? The general has come all the way, and it's already late now. We, Wuhuan, are a hospitable country and will never neglect the general. Tonight, my king
Let’s have a banquet with the general first, and it won’t be too late to compete again outside Changli City early tomorrow morning.”
"Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey!"
That night, Su Buyan gave Gao Fei a banquet in Changli, and asked the tribesmen to perform songs and dances. Gao Fei spent a unique night amidst the melodious sound of the Qiang flute, and had a good sleep.
Early the next morning, after a simple breakfast, Gao Fei, accompanied by Su Buyan, arrived outside Changli City.
Under a hill three miles north of Changli City, all five thousand Wuhuan Cavalry gathered together, waiting for the arrival of their king.
Cavalry has a long history. The famous Youzhou Cavalry in history was based on the Wuhuan Cavalry, and there were many Wuhuan people among them. Youzhou Cavalry arose during the Han Dynasty.
After a long war with the Xiongnu, the Han Dynasty also established a powerful cavalry force in order to compete with the Xiongnu cavalry. Against this background, Youzhou, which was located in the northern border area, also forged a team in the tempering of the war.
An elite cavalry - the Assault Cavalry.
At the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu used the power of the Youzhou Cavalry to pacify Hebei, making the Youzhou Cavalry the most combat-effective cavalry team in history. After Emperor Guangwu, the Youzhou Cavalry gradually
They faded out of the big stage of history and were only used in the Youzhou area to fight against the Xiongnu and Xianbei people. Later, although the cavalry of all dynasties in China all had the name of cavalry, the cavalry here were the elite cavalry units.
The code name no longer specifically refers to the Youzhou Tuqi.
However, these Wuhuan cavalry that Gao Fei saw were indeed real cavalry. Each Wuhuan warrior rode on a tall horse. The horse was unarmored and equipped with high-bridge saddles and stirrups, which could make the knight
Riding more steadily on horseback. Warriors wore ordinary armor, using rectangular armor pieces. The chest and back armors were connected with belts at the shoulders. There were also shawls and leg skirts to protect the legs. In the hands of the warriors
They all held halberds about two meters long, with bows and arrows hanging near their horses' backs, and they all gathered together in uniform uniforms.
When the five thousand cavalrymen saw Su Puyan coming here on horseback, they all raised their halberds above their heads and shouted: "Long live the king! Long live the king!"
Seeing such majestic assault cavalry in uniform uniforms, Gao Fei couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart, and thought slowly: "The Wuhuan assault cavalry is indeed well-deserved. In terms of lineup, it is even better than the Qiang people in Liangzhou."
The unification is probably due to being recruited into the army by the imperial court many times."
"Uliden, come here!" Su Puyan stopped his advancing horse, came to a high hill with Gao Fei, and shouted to a young man below the high hill.
The young man named Uliden rode his horse to the high hill, dismounted, stuck the halberd in his hand on the ground, then beat his chest with his right hand, lowered his head and shouted: "Uliden meets the king!"
Su Puyan turned to Gao Fei and said: "General, this is the number one warrior in our Liaodong kingdom. If you can defeat him, these five thousand cavalrymen will naturally obey your command."
Gao Fei looked at Wu Liden and saw that Wu Liden was almost 1.85 meters tall. He had teeth like silver chisels, golden eyes, fists like copper hammers, a face like an iron bowl, a beard and curly hair, which made people look at his heart.
There would be an inexplicable feeling of fear. He frowned, looked at Uliden, and thought silently in his heart: "No matter what, I will defeat him!"
Su Buyan seemed to see a trace of doubt in Gao Fei's heart, and he chuckled: "General Gao, if you regret something important now, it's still too late, don't wait until..."
Gao Fei jumped off Wulongju's back, and as soon as he landed, he interrupted what Su Puyan was about to say, stared at Wuliden closely, and said coldly: "Let's begin!"
Su Puyan was surprised at first, and then became complacent. He was very confident in Uliden and shouted to Uliden: "Don't use too much force on your hands. If you hurt General Gao, you will
I can’t afford to lose my brain!”
It was obvious that Su Buyan did not take Gao Fei to heart, who was thinner than Uliden. It was more of a sarcasm.
Gao Fei walked up to Uliden, cupped his hands and said, "How do we want to compete? Fists and kicks, weapons, or archery?"
Uliden raised his eyelids and glanced at Su Buyan, his eyes also full of questions.
Su Puyan said: "Then use fists and kicks. Those who use knives and guns are prone to accidental injuries. As long as whose back hits the ground first, he will lose."
After saying this, Su Puyan rode down the high hill, and at the same time signaled the following warriors to leave, leaving the high hill empty. Immediately afterwards, Wuhuan's five thousand cavalry surrounded the high hill.
They stopped, raised the halberds in their hands high, and shouted loudly: "Uliden! Uliden! Uliden! Uliden..."
There was a rumbling sound in his ears, and he was surrounded by Wuhuan people. In front of him stood Wuliden, who was more than half his head taller than himself. Gao Fei took a deep breath, moved his steps back, and at the same time tightened his fists
Hold it and shout to Uliden: "Come on!"
A faint smile appeared on the corner of Uliden's mouth, his tiger body shook, he clenched his fists, rushed towards Gao Fei quickly, and punched out with his raised right fist at the same time.
Gao Fei looked at Uliden's strong body and rushed towards him. A fist as big as a bowl hit him in the face at the same time. He frowned and did not dare to receive such a powerful punch.
Immediately use your agility to move sideways.
With a "whoop" sound, Uliden's fist brought up a ray of breeze and passed in front of Gao Fei. When he saw that one blow missed, he punched out another one, trying to prevent Gao Fei from reacting.
At that time, he used his huge strength to knock down Gao Fei with one punch.
Gao Fei saw that Uliden was approaching fiercely, and his fists were filled with wind. If he was hit with such fierce force, he would probably break a bone. He did not dare to take a hard hit, but still used his agility to get out of the way.
, but his eyes have been observing Uliden's every move, trying to find any weakness in this Wuhuan man with a strong appearance.
"Whirring whirring!"
Uliden punched four times in a row, each punch hitting the vital parts of Gao Fei's chest and abdomen. Just as he was about to hit him, Gao Fei's figure disappeared in front of his eyes and appeared in front of another person.
direction. He did not dare to slack off at all. He was the number one warrior among the Wuhuan people in the Liaodong vassal state. He could not be defeated in public by a Han who was much thinner than he looked. The only thing he could do was to use all his strength to knock down the opponent.
.
Su Puyan and the five thousand Wuhuan Cavalry all watched the duel on the high hill. Everyone's face showed a trace of joy. They could see clearly that Wuliden's fists would fly high.
He was forced to hide everywhere, leaving Gao Fei unable to fight back.
"Uliden is indeed the number one warrior under my men. His strikes are extraordinary. Every time he punches, the strength of his hand will increase. It seems that there is no suspense in this duel. Haha, hahaha!
"Su Puyan was riding on horseback, about two meters away from the high hill. He was very happy to see Uliden's performance.
Gao Fei dodged left and right, dodging more than a dozen of Uliden's punches, but he didn't dare to slack off at all. He saw Uliden's brute force, and the places he attacked were all his vital parts. If it weren't for
He is agile and might not be able to avoid Uliden's fist.
After dodging a few more punches, Gao Fei saw that Uliden's movements began to slow down a little, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He saw the right opportunity, and dodged Uliden's chest blow.
When punching Uliden with his left fist, his body suddenly leaned towards Uliden's side, and he hit Uliden's chest violently with his elbow, causing Uliden's right fist that was about to hit to stop abruptly. His clenched fists
He struck out quickly and punched Uliden directly on the head. The two punches were only close to Uliden's temple and gave him a heavy blow at the same time. Then he raised his left leg and kicked Uliden's chest, knocking Uliden into the chest.
Rariden flew away with a kick.
Uliden didn't know what was going on. He was clearly attacking Gao Fei, but Gao Fei only dodged for a moment and then moved his whole body close to him. After withstanding Gao Fei's two punches, he felt his eyes were dizzy.
, his mind was confused, his body flew out involuntarily, fell to the ground, and rolled down the high hill. He rolled four or five meters before stopping.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. Thinking that Uliden, whom they usually respected and admired the most, was actually defeated by a Han, and only for a moment, their eyes widened and their mouths opened wide.
, shocked and speechless.
"Who else?" Gao Fei looked around and shouted loudly.
For a long time, no one answered at the top of the high hill. Even the usually anxious horses became extremely peaceful.
The black colt suddenly raised its front hooves and let out a high-pitched hiss, as if celebrating the victory for its master.
"This...how is this possible?" Su Buyan looked at the relatively thin Gao Fei in surprise, blinked his eyes, and muttered to himself.
