Rushing from the palace to the outside of the city, only less than 500 of the thousand elite cavalry were left. At this moment, they encountered the most ferocious enemy. Li Dezheng took a long breath and prepared to charge. If he could not break through in the fastest time,
As for the opponent's cavalry battle formation, once the Song army in the city chases them out, what awaits them will be their entire army being annihilated.
Li Dezheng's captain of the bodyguard, wearing Li Dezheng's golden helmet and armor, took the lead with a howl and led more than a hundred cavalry towards the diagonal stab. The rest, including Li Dezheng himself, all charged towards the Song Dynasty cavalry.
This approach finally worked. The Song army on the opposite side suddenly split into two teams during a high-speed charge. One team went to intercept the escaping men in golden armor, and the other team brutally charged at the enemy in front.
There was no horse fighting like Li Dezheng had expected. When the two armies were less than twenty feet apart, he was greeted by a dense rain of arrows. He saw those Song soldiers holding crossbows and shooting them over like black waves.
Li Dezheng, who had fought many battles, immediately hid his body on the side of the war horse. The ear-piercing screams of flying crossbows could be heard in his ears. He was lucky enough to escape this round of attacks, but the war horse was not so lucky. Blood spurted out from his neck.
Li Dezheng's face was splashed, and his body fell heavily to the ground along with the horse. When his face fell to the ground, he felt countless gold stars appearing in front of his eyes...
Killing the enemy with crossbows was only the first blow of the Song army. The gunpowder bombs that flew over soon tore apart the last complete military formation of the Jiaochin people. It was now time to show off their weapons and fight...
When Yun Zheng arrived outside the city, the fighting was in full swing. The eye-catching general in golden armor saw that his companions in front of him had suffered a devastating blow. He stopped running away and returned to his horse to fight again.
Xiaolin casually stabbed an enemy soldier to death with a single shot, and urged his war horses to face the man in golden armor. This general was indeed capable. Wu Shengjun's cavalry suffered heavy injuries when encountering him. This guy immediately found himself without a single enemy, and the sword in his hand was struck by him.
It dances like a windmill and cannot be hurt by arrows!
Xiao Lin's spear stabbed fiercely, but he used a big knife to block it. The huge blade slid down the gun shaft. Xiao Lin was so shocked that he lay down on his horse to escape the disaster.
The man in golden armor had no time to tangle with Xiao Lin. He dodged Xiao Lin's spear and ran towards the front of the battlefield. Xiao Lin was furious and chased closely behind him.
Yunzheng's personal guards drew their weapons and joined the battle. However, they did not join the battle group. Instead, they stayed outside the battle group and kept using crossbows to greet the fierce Jiaozhi people. These people had very good fighting skills on horseback and used large blades.
Wu Shengjun's cavalry was dancing so fast that it was very difficult for Wu Shengjun's cavalry to deal with it. From time to time, one or two people were hacked to death by the Jiaozhi people with big swords. If it were not for the rain of crossbow arrows with three arrows at the moment of charge, these people would have been able to break through Wu Shengjun's defense and escape.
Now that they had long-range support, the two armies suddenly became evenly matched. The Jiaozhi people had to guard against sneak attacks by the crossbow arrows of the Song army wandering outside, so they had to concentrate on defense, but they didn't know that doing so would make them defeated faster.
They were fighting like a revolving lantern. The men in golden armor had already rushed into the battle group. With a shout, the two horses kicked off a Song soldier with a knife. Immediately, the Jiaozhi men guarded behind him, blocking Xiaolin from behind.
Can't get through it for a while.
He jumped off the horse, overturned the dead horse on the ground with one hand, and moved Li Dezheng, who was almost in a coma, out. Seeing that Li Dezheng was still breathing, he immediately tied him behind him, jumped on the horse again, and waited for him.
When I picked up the machete and looked around, preparing to break out, I felt despair in my heart.
Countless black-armored cavalry surrounded them like hungry wolves. The few remaining Jiaozhi people had also died under random arrows. He watched his deputy being torn apart by a thick crossbow. Since the enemy's powerful crossbow
Having arrived, the possibility of him escaping was slim. He licked his lips and said to Li Dezheng behind him with a smile: "Your Majesty, let's fight to the death!"
"Put me down!" Li Dezheng whispered with a leaky mouth.
"What?" the captain of the guard asked in shock.
"Put me down!" Li Dezheng said again.
The captain of the guard looked at the approaching black-armored cavalry, closed his eyes, and loosened his belt. Li Dezheng climbed down from his horse and shouted at the approaching knights: "I am the lord of Jiaozhi. Please speak to the commander-in-chief of the Song Dynasty!"
"
Xiaolin pointed his spear at the golden-armored warrior and said: "Dismount, remove your armor and surrender!"
With red eyes, the captain of the guard clenched the sword in his hand, and was about to urge his horse forward to fight Xiaolin to the death, but unexpectedly Li Dezheng's voice came from behind him: "Dismount, take off your armor!"
The captain of the guard numbly threw away the sword in his hand, took off his armor, and exposed his scarred chest. Wearing only a pair of obscene pants, he stood barefoot in the blood, looking up at the sky without saying a word.
"I am the general of the Song Dynasty. I wonder what the king wants to say?"
The black-armored cavalry separated a path, and Yun Zheng rode a big green horse and slowly walked in from behind the battle formation and asked with a smile.
"The lonely king is the king of Jiaozhi County granted by the emperor of the Song Dynasty, so why did he invade our territory?" Li Dezheng roared.
Su Xun smiled and said: "Have you remembered at this time that you are a vassal country? It has been fifty years since you Li Shi founded the country. Where have your contributions to the country been? Except for the gold you gave when you asked for rewards in the first year.
Apart from a thousand taels, a pair of white jade stones, and five measures of pearls, I have made no contribution over the years. Your Majesty asked me to come and ask the Lord if I am going to make up for my contributions over the years, or am I going to continue to ignore them?
"
Li Dezheng laughed and said: "So it turns out that this is all my fault. Please send your envoy back to report to His Majesty the Emperor of the Song Dynasty. I will make up for the contributions that have been owed over the years and immediately send your envoy to apologize. In the name of Your Majesty's mercy."
If you become famous all over the world, your country will surely be forgiven for its omissions."
Su Xun said with a smile: "That was just the first crime. Now let's talk about the second crime. Instigating Nong Zhigao to invade our country and corrupt the southwest, causing more than a million damages to the people of the Song Dynasty, but I don't know how the king of the country will explain this!"
Li Dezheng said sadly: "Nong Zhigao is an ambitious thief. In his early years, my father saw that the Liao clan was ambitious, so he imprisoned Nong Zhigao and subdued Nong Quande. Nong Quande was devoted to rebellion and refused to die, so he was executed by my father.
, Nong Zhigao has been dissatisfied with me for a long time in Jiaozhi. Six years ago, he fought with me in Jiaozhi. Our grand master was defeated, and the envoy also heard about it.
Therefore, our country, Jiaozhi, and Nong Zhigao are enemies of life and death, and it is absolutely impossible for them to collude with each other to cause chaos. Please be aware of this, His Majesty the Song Dynasty."
Su Xun laughed loudly and said: "I see, with the words of the king, I can have a clear target when I go back and write historical records. Now if you have anything, just ask my general. I am just a staff officer, not an envoy."
Li Dezheng suddenly raised his head. His captain of the bodyguard had been filled with anger for a long time. He clenched his fists and was about to pounce on him. The monkey put a spear against the broad chest of the captain of the bodyguard and said with a smile: "Why are you so anxious? My family is joining the army and I am asking you."
I’ll give you face, don’t ask any questions.”
Li Dezheng shouted: "Lilong must not be rude!"
After he stopped his chief of guards, he said to Yunzheng: "He is not a messenger. Are you also a fake general who came here to tease the lonely king?"
Yun Zheng smacked his lips and said, "Don't be angry, Prince of Jiaozhi County. I am indeed the commander-in-chief of this army. I am the supervisor of the Wu Sheng Army. Yun Zheng, a direct bachelor of Baowen Pavilion, has met the king."
"You, the direct bachelor of Baowen Pavilion, are only a fourth-rank official. Why don't you bow to me when you meet the prince?" Li Dezheng asked with a twitching beard, but his face was full of blood and he seemed a little unsure.
Yun Zheng scratched the back of his head in embarrassment and said: "What the prince said is that you are a first-rank official, and you are only a fourth-rank official. Normally, you should kowtow when you see me. However, this time is a little different. The lower official is here.
Those who rob, you don’t need to think that I am an official, just think of me as a thief, so if you have any grievances, wait until you get to Bianliang City in Tokyo to tell His Majesty."
"You!" Yun Zheng's words choked Li Dezheng's last words. It would be in vain to talk to a thief about the rules. He knew what Song Jun was doing outside Shenglong City these days. Even the Li family
Even if the gilded statues of their ancestors were not spared, how could they spare Thang Long City? The reason why they came to Thang Long City was probably for money.
Thinking of this, Li Dezheng said again: "When the army is dispatched, it will naturally be filled with gold and silver. Since the army of the upper country has been dispatched, there is no reason for the lower country to let the army go in vain. Our country is willing to provide ten thousand taels of gold in return.
Great army, what do you think, General?"
At this time, Li Dezheng was afraid that Yun Zheng would not put forward conditions. As long as he put forward conditions, he would be able to escape. No matter how harsh the conditions were, they were not as important as his own life. Once he was out of trouble, there would naturally be countless ways to deal with Yun Zheng's ten thousand people.
With an army of many people, Li Dezheng did not believe that the combined strength of the whole country would be unable to defeat Yunzheng.
Yun Zheng just smiled after hearing Li Dezheng's words and did not answer. He said to Han Niu: "From now on, the safety of the king depends on you. Remember, never dare to let the king leave."
Han Niu grinned and went to capture Li Dezheng. Li Dezheng's guard chief Lilong wanted to stop him, but Xiao Lin's gun barrel hit him hard on the back. He was too busy vomiting blood and had no time to stop him.
Dezheng's combat prowess was not low, but he fell off his horse. Several bones in his waist and back were very unstable, and it hurt when he moved. So he had to let the fool tie him up tightly.
Su Xun pointed at Li Dezheng who was being escorted into the carriage and asked: "How do you deal with this person?"
"Sent to Bianliang City in Tokyo, Honglu Temple Chinese Hall of the Song Dynasty. Ever since Li Yu sang "When Will the Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon Come?", I haven't heard any songs that are nostalgic for the motherland for a long time. Li Dezheng may be able to sing them there.
It’s not necessarily a matter of reciting a few masterpieces handed down from generation to generation.”
Su Xun smiled and shook his head and said: "Are you planning to see how the big guys in the court squeeze out the last bit of Li Dezheng's oil and water? It's good that Wu Shengjun will make a fortune and the court will benefit from it. What are you going to do next?
?”
Yun Zheng laughed loudly and said: "The door to the treasure house has been opened. The adventurous warriors will naturally go in and make a fortune. Sir, let me tell you, if there is something that catches your eye, do it as soon as possible. Once it is accounted for, haha..." (Unfinished)
