Chapter 80 Ping Gu Zang, a knife shocked the world (1)
A night of silence.
When dawn broke out, Li Lijun's camp had already built a pot to make rice, and the soldiers were ready to go.
At the beginning of the Chen Shi, Li Li walked out of the tent with his head held high, and took the reins handed over by Dian Wei and flew on his horse.
The yellow horse flew out from the crowd with four hooves and rushed out of the gate first. Dian Wei, Teng Yu, Teng Xiao and other generals waved their hands and led their troops out one after another.
"Lord, Li Kan and Cheng Yin are really arrogant! Last night, my subordinates thought that the two thieves would attack the camp at night when our army first arrived in Guzang and were not stable. Unexpectedly, the two of them did not do this. Instead, they sent someone to hand in the letter of war early in the morning to fight head-on with our army!"
Li Xuan, wearing silver armor, rode his horse out of the gate and whispered to Li Li.
Li Li snorted coldly, rode his horse slowly, glanced at Guzangcheng several miles away, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"This is expected. Li Kan and Cheng Yin and the other thieves have been in power for many years, and have tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry under their command, so they don't take our more than two thousand light cavalry seriously.
I came to issue a letter of war early in the morning and invited our army to fight head-on. In fact, they just wanted to humiliate me. Because, in their hearts, our army is not enough for them to get stuck in their teeth. They are sure to win!"
Li Xuan smiled and said with a weird smile: "Li Kan, the two thieves Cheng Yin were originally from bandits. A few years ago, they took advantage of the war in Liangzhou and led their troops to take advantage of the situation and gradually gained a firm foothold in Liangzhou. In the past two years, they have relied on Han Sui, acted recklessly, and have no major setbacks.
This time, the two thieves dared to underestimate our army, and it depends on whether they really have good teeth. If they are just a group of arrogant pussies, then we will not be able to plug the teeth, but to pull out their teeth and take their lives! Hahaha!"
Li Li laughed and said, "What Yuanzhong said is very true! Since they took the initiative to fight our army head-on, we will certainly be happy to see it happen and save trouble. This prefect comes to Wuwei to take office this time, and it is just a matter of great victory to show its military power. Unexpectedly, they stretched their necks over and let me behead them to establish their authority. It is really a great thing that is hard to come by!"
"Hahaha!"
Amid the hearty laughter, Li Lijun slowly approached the north gate of Guzang City.
Under Guzang City, outside the north gate.
Just as Li Lijun appeared in the sight of the soldiers guarding the city, the city gate suddenly opened wide, and six thousand light cavalry rushed out of the city, crossed the suspension bridge, and lined up a hundred steps in front of the moat, waiting for Li Lijun to arrive.
More than 5,000 infantrymen were left in the city to defend the city. The two generals Li Kan and Cheng Yin went to fight together this time, trying to destroy Li Lijun in one fell swoop.
Yes, Li Kan and Cheng Yin. Although they were once bandits, they each obtained the position of a lieutenant after relying on Han Sui, so others respectfully called them "General".
Han Sui is now the General of Zhenxi, who was granted the title of Dong Zhuo. He has the power to open a prefecture and can award some middle and low-level official positions.
Therefore, the small princes who were separating the land, such as Li Kan, Cheng Yin, Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, and Zhang Heng, all depended on Han Sui and obtained official positions from him to satisfy the vanity of these bandits and bandit leaders.
Because of this, these little princes were also called the eight generals under Han Sui's command.
In fact, they were just nominally dependent on Han Sui, but were actually still princes who were separatist.
If there are benefits, the eight generals will obey Han Sui's orders; if there is no benefit, it is a different matter. It is common to disobey lip service.
Before Han Sui was granted the title of General Zhenxi, they had relied on Ma Teng. At that time, Ma Teng had a relatively high position. Since Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Chang'an, Ma Teng was suppressed, and Han Sui jumped up instead, so they abandoned Ma Teng and instead relied on Han Sui.
To put it bluntly, princes like Li Kan and Cheng Yin who seek profit and avoid disasters are purely mothers with milk. They are all fence-bearing grass, and they will fall to the side wherever the wind is strong.
The reason why Li Kan and Cheng Yin fight to the death with Li Li is because Li Li wants to take back Guzang City and take away the "territory" they rely on for survival.
Therefore, they must fight back with all their might and even want to get rid of Li Li, the new prefect.
"Xi Yuyu----!"
With the loud neighing of horses, Li Li's light cavalry rushed to Guzang City and gathered in a geese-shaped battle formation opposite Li Kan and Cheng Yin's army.
The two sides were two hundred steps apart, all of them were fighting cavalry, waiting in a row to confront each other.
In an instant, the atmosphere of the two armies suddenly became solemn, and invisible evil aura rose into the air, condensed into a group, covering the heads of more than 8,000 combat cavalry on both sides.
In front of the formation, Li Li looked at the two burly men wearing general armor on the opposite side with a cold look on his face.
But I saw a big man wearing silver armor on the left, with black hair shawls, bandit-like face, a pair of lying eyebrows, big eyes, a bridge of collapsed nose, a big mouth, and a corner of his mouth intentionally or unintentionally with a provocative sneer.
This man is about eight feet tall and strong. Under his crotch, a black horse with a shiny mane, nine feet long and seven feet tall, looking very majestic. He gave Li Li the feeling that he was arrogant, perverse, and a typical bully.
Li Li intuition speculated that the bandit leader who had robbed the surrounding counties and townships of Wuwei County before was this person, and he should be Cheng Yin who did everything he wanted.
The man with black armor on the right is nearly eight feet tall, burly, looks pretty stern, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks quite majestic. However, his eyes blink from time to time, and his eyes look at people are also very erratic, giving people an unreliable feeling, too slippery and untrustworthy.
However, the mount under this guy's crotch is very eye-catching. This is a black horse, one meter long and about eight feet and five inches tall. It is black and shiny all over, with a shiny mane standing up and showing its slightest hair; its muscle texture is clear and its limbs are strong.
There are two most conspicuous places in this horse. One is that its body is extremely tall and is more than two feet tall than the horse on the left. The other is that it has four sky blue hooves, and the sky blue fluff is from the ankle bone. When it lifts its feet and tramples, it is like stepping on a blue cloud, giving people a sense of elegance and dust.
Based on intuition alone, Li Li believed that this black war horse was definitely one of the best horses in a thousand miles.
Judging from the restrained expression of the man sitting on the back of a horse, he kept tightening the reins at all times. He had not been able to control the horse as he pleased.
According to rumors, Li Kan seems to be quite majestic, but in fact he is strong on the outside but has a suspicious mind and capricious nature.
As for the identity of the person who is very different from the mount in front of him, Li Li didn't need to think about it and knew that this person must be Li Kan.
"Well! Who is the new Li Li? Stand up and let your Grandpa Cheng see what you look like? A Huangkou child who has just turned 16 years old dares to surpass the high position of the prefect. It is obvious that he doesn't take your Grandpa Cheng seriously!"
Just as Li Li looked at the mount under Li Kan's crotch, the arrogant man on the left shouted loudly, stared at Li Xuan beside Li Li, and shouted provocatively.
Sure enough, the perverted man on the left opposite was Cheng Yin.
Suddenly, Li Li raised his eyebrows, looked at Cheng Yin coldly, stepped forward a few steps, and said in a deep voice: "Bold madman, you are a bandit, dare to speak so arrogantly! He is the current prefect of Wuwei and the captain of the Qiang Protecting School Li Li, standing in front of you, Cheng Yin thief, what are you doing to me?"
Cheng Yin suddenly became furious and pointed at Li Li with gritted teeth, "Ahhh, my child is really rampant! Who said I am a bandit? I am a Wuwei lieutenant with seals? I dare to slander me! I......"
Before Cheng Yin could finish his words, Li Li interrupted, "Cheng Yin thief, take a stone lump and say it's a seal, right? Did you pick it up on the roadside? Do you know the word "seal"? You are obviously a reckless man and bandit, and you have the face to call yourself a captain. You are so shameless!"
"Ah! Li Li's child was killed!"
Cheng Yin, who has been arrogant for many years, has never been so ridiculed. In addition, he did not take Li Li and his team seriously at all.
Li Li said something right. Cheng Yin is illiterate, and he really can't write the word "seal" two words.
In a rage, Cheng Yin screamed angrily, rushed out of the battle formation by horse, raised the five-year-old sword in his hand, and rushed straight to Li Li with murderous intent.
Looking at Cheng Yin, who was clamoring, rushing towards him, Li Li didn't even raise his eyebrows, and rushed towards him. The big knife on his right hand dragged on the ground and rubbed bright sparks.
In an instant, the distance between Li Li and Cheng Yin was significantly shortened at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Fifty steps····Thirty steps························Ten steps, five steps.
Suddenly, the big knife that Li Li had been dragging on the ground suddenly flipped, his shoulders sank, and he lifted up.
In an instant, a dazzling sword light shook by the sunlight and refracted on Cheng Yin's eyes, causing him to instinctively close his eyes while galloping on his horse, and instantly deaf.
"Ah! Cheng Yin is careful!"
Just as Cheng Yin closed his eyes, Li Kan, a hundred steps away, shouted loudly.
Cheng Yin immediately felt clever and opened his eyes instantly, and cut down the big knife on his right hand.
But, it was too late.
What caught Cheng Yin's eyes was still a dazzling sword light, but this time it was not the refracted light of the sun, but the gloomy and terrifying blade light.
"Click!"
With the crisp sound of broken bones, the blade slashed down from Cheng Yin's left neck, and the broken bones were opened with the chest. The body was divided into two, and the right half of the body and the head flew out together.
The half of the upper body that flew out was still waving a big knife, her eyes were wide open, and her mouth was opened but she could not make a sound.
Cheng Yin, who was flying, had no time to scream, but was shocked to see the lower half of his body riding on the horse suddenly spurted out blood mist more than ten feet high.
This is the last sight Cheng Yin saw in this life. Then, his eyes darkened and he fell into endless darkness.
"Bang!"
When Li Li turned his horse, Cheng Yin flew to half of the corpse in the air and landed on the ground.
He slashed Cheng Yin with one knife. This was what Li Li said when he learned that Cheng Yin was extremely guilty.
Now, he really did it.
"Ah! Li Li, don't leave, and I, Brother Cheng Yin, will come back!"
When Li Li returned to the horse and returned to the military formation, Li Kan shouted shrillly, waved his sword, and led the six thousand iron cavalry to come rushing towards him.
Chapter completed!
