Li Xingchen was startled for a moment, then turned around and cupped his hands: "You are not sensitive, you are a man from the mountains, and your name is not worth mentioning to the governor. Li Xingchen is the one."
"Li Xinchen?" Wu Mingche murmured and repeated these three words, as if he wanted to chew the name into pieces.
After thinking about it, Li Xingchen still added: "My father was the founder of Li Cheng."
Wu Mingche's cloudy eyes suddenly flashed with light, he looked Li Xingchen up and down again, and smiled slightly: "It turns out that after being the 'Shixing Gun King', I have admired your name for a long time. Emperor Gaozu Wu often mentioned it to us when he was still alive.
, It’s just a pity that the Gun King followed General Chen Qingzhi to the north and was never heard from again. I didn’t expect to see the Gun King’s descendants today, so I’m even lucky.”
It was unclear whether Wu Mingche's words contained more genuine praise and admiration or more praise out of courtesy. Li Xingchen did not dare to say more for a while. Wu Mingche slowly turned around and waved his hand: "No wonder, you can
Those who fall into Xiao Yuanyin's eyes must not be mediocre, but I was overly concerned before. My son, go ahead. A tiger father has no dog son. Back then, your father's spear was famous in Shixing. I hope you will not disgrace your father's reputation!"
Li Xingchen took a deep breath and bowed deeply towards Wu Mingche.
Only then did he realize how valuable the intangible property Li Cheng left him was.
Listening to the disappearing footsteps behind him, Wu Mingche turned around again and picked up the candlestick on the table. He walked step by step to the map. Looking at the intertwined situation between the enemy and ourselves on the map, Wu Mingche shook his head slightly: "I have been fighting on the battlefield all my life, and finally I can't.
It’s time to reach your limit. Xiao Yuanyin, the rest is up to you."
In the candlelight, Wu Mingche's face and the intricate outlines on the map flickered.

"Hurry, brothers, work harder, and try to secure the river barrier before sunrise tomorrow!" A shirtless general shouted loudly in the rushing river. They raised torches one by one.
The entire Luliang River bank was illuminated, and soldiers dressed in almost the same uniform as him were shouting and carrying logs.
The Luliang River still flows leisurely downstream, but above the Luliang River, a large-scale camp guarding the road is taking shape, and in the center of the camp, a large flag with the word "王" is dancing in the wind.
In the Luliang River, soldiers with their trousers rolled up were constantly coming and going to carry materials for building camps. The entire both sides of the Luliang River had become a busy construction site.
"Boss, do you think those island barbarians are just watching us build the camp?" A soldier looked curiously at the commanding general beside him.
General Zhuang glared at him: "You are the only one who talks too much!"
However, he seemed to be in a good mood, and then said: "Not to mention whether they know that we are building a camp here to cut off their escape route. Even if they know, what can we do? We have about the same number of people, and it is easy to defend here.
It is difficult to attack, and there is a general taking command, are we really afraid of those eggless island barbarians?!"
As soon as Zhuangjiang's foul language came out, the surrounding soldiers burst out laughing. Zhuangjiang waved his hand: "Why don't you laugh? Come on and work for me. When the water stronghold is built, those island barbarians will really go to heaven."
There is no way, no way to enter the earth!"
The soldiers agreed enthusiastically, but before they could continue working, a cry of surprise came from the shore, and a sharp-eyed soldier also yelled and pointed upstream.
I don't know when a bright light appeared in the darkness, erratic like a will-o'-the-wisp, but soon countless lights swallowed up this bright light into the ocean of light. The blazing torches first became dots like stars, and then connected into lines,
Once again, the entire darkness was enveloped and ignited by the light of this torch.
The entire Luliang River suddenly became quiet.
"Daoyi!" A sudden cry broke the strange silence.
The sound of horse hooves rose from the ground, and figures leaping out in the flickering light of torches appeared in the eyes of all the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty. At this time, most of the Northern Zhou generals also reacted, and they roared and commanded the soldiers around them.
The soldiers rushed forward.
The war horse's hooves stepped heavily into the water, and countless water splashed. A loud shout came from the cavalry with torches. All the torches were thrown aside at the same time, and the cavalry neatly pulled out the blades from their waists and raised them suddenly, the darkness
In the midst of it, illuminated by the firelight in the distance, Mingren flashed with a frightening cold light.
"Kill!" Xiao Shilian roared angrily, running headlong into the panicked crowd.
The Nanchen cavalry following him rolled like a rushing tide, while the Northern Zhou soldiers who were suddenly attacked by the cavalry were already in chaos. At the same time, in the darkness on the shore not far away, large groups of Nanchen troops were also attacking the Northern Zhou soldiers from all directions.
Launch an attack on the camp that has not yet been completed.
The horse spear pierced the chest of a Northern Zhou general. The general looked at the young enemy in front of him with wide eyes, and grabbed the gun barrel behind the horse with both hands. Xiao Shilian roared, and the barbs on the horse
The general's arm was cut off forcibly. Xiao Shilian grabbed the horse with both hands and swung it hard, hitting the general's weak ribs directly. The general spit out a mouthful of blood unwillingly and slowly fell into the water.
They kept popping up from his corpse, dyeing the surrounding cold river water red.
Xiao Shilian raised the horse in his hand fiercely, and blood sprayed on his body and face, making the young general sitting on the horse look even more ferocious. The elite cavalry led by Xiao Maha roared behind Xiao Shilian
They rushed forward, rolling like a tidal wave, while the Northern Zhou army was collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This is the most elite cavalry team that Xiao Mohe can use, and it is also the trump card that Nanchen relied on to win the two Luliang battles before. At this time, concentrating all his strength on the attack is certainly enough for the Northern Zhou army who is busy at work.
fatal.
However, both Xiao Mohe and the leader Xiao Shilian knew very well that although the cavalry was powerful, it was not omnipotent, especially when their opponent was a long-established general like Wang Gui. The reason why the cavalry can use surprise tactics
The role of the cavalry is because they can break into the enemy camp before the sentinels send back the alarm, but naturally it also has its disadvantages. Once the cavalry charges forward and the infantry falls behind, the cavalry alone can easily occupy the force.
The superior enemies surrounded and strangled them.
The cavalry that loses its speed advantage is equivalent to losing its greatest support.
"Quick, fight quickly!" Xiao Shilian's voice was a little hoarse, and he ordered to the generals who were following him.
The number of Xiao Mohe's cavalry is actually not that large, only more than a thousand - of course, it is a rare cavalry assault force for the Southern Dynasty, which has always lacked war horses - so the army also
There are only banner generals, and most of them are from Xiao family generals. This cavalry can actually be regarded as Xiao Maha's private army to a large extent.
This is one of the reasons why this cavalry can often show combat prowess beyond ordinary people's imagination.
