Invincible son

After the war in the western region, the Zang Fengwei has been recognized as the strongest in the world. The Western Wu iron cavalry who have traversed the Gaoyang Plain for decades have been defeated by them. .

Now this elite cavalry that has won a great victory is right in front of my eyes, with more than ten thousand horses shaking their heads restlessly, their majesty and majesty are breathtaking.

The three thousand forbidden troops can still maintain a calm demeanor, which is the confidence of the Daliang First Army.Not to mention the priority distribution of first-class ordnance and the enviable military pay, the quality of the soldiers of the Imperial Army alone is far superior to that of other camps.From ancient times to the present, there has been a saying that the poor are rich in martial arts. It is difficult for ordinary people to have the opportunity to practice martial arts since childhood, and the soldiers of the Imperial Army are basically descendants of martial arts and generals.

The two armies faced each other, and the atmosphere became more and more dignified.

The two guards of the Southern Camp who calmly dealt with Ping Nanwei before could not stop the commotion, the reason is very simple, they are different from most people who have only heard of the prestige of Zang Fengwei.At the western border a few months ago, the soldiers of the two guards witnessed how the Tibetan Front Guard defeated the Western Wu cavalry, and they had a very intuitive understanding of the strength of this elite cavalry.

The commander of Shanyang Guard made Zhou Zongqi's face a little ugly, because he had already seen fear from the faces of some of his soldiers.

"Don't blame them."

Li Zi spoke calmly, Zhou Zongqi was slightly taken aback, and immediately heard the commander of the Forbidden Army continue to say: "Even you and I are in a daze after the appearance of the Zang Fengwei, let alone these soldiers. There is no need to say more about the strength of the Zang Fengwei. Pei Yue's ability to stand tall in court. Although his charges of treason and rebellion are unforgivable, we must maintain the most basic importance for this cavalry."

The anger on Zhou Zongqi's face gradually subsided, and Duan Siliang, the commander of Jiangduwei on the other side, said with a complicated expression: "What the Marquis said is very true. The general just felt a little pity that the Marquis Puding didn't stop this cavalry from outside the pass. "

All three were silent.

In fact, the operation of the southern battalion of the Beijing Army was earlier than Gu Liang's speculation. Yesterday Shengjia arrived at Xingliang Mansion. After nightfall, Shanyangwei and Jiangduwei began to march secretly to the northern suburbs of Kyoto. The main force of the two guards rushed to the Gulin Post Pass.When Liu Xian and Pei Yue entered the Circular Mound Altar, the big net outside the capital had already been rolled out.

Gu Liang's return journey information has been kept in the hands of the imperial court, and he will not be able to reach the west of Gulin Station until this morning at the earliest, but the more than [-] soldiers led by Chen Huan have controlled the pass before dawn.

Li Zi was very clear about this, because this was the strategy he had drawn up for Empress Dowager Wu.Nanying can't act in advance, otherwise Pei Yue will definitely notice it, and there will inevitably be worries that all previous efforts will be wasted.In order to reduce Pei Yue's vigilance as much as possible, Empress Dowager Wu didn't even notify the Kyoto garrison in advance.

only……

Li Zi raised his eyes and looked at the mighty Zang Fengwei on the opposite side, and his tone gradually became high: "The country raises soldiers for thousands of days, just to use them for a while. Now that the king of Jin is coercing the emperor and committing rebellion in the name of the Qing emperor, we should be the leader Faithful to the death."

These words spread to the ears of all the generals nearby, from Zhou Zongqi to Duan Siliang, to every general in armor and holding a blade, the expressions on their faces were solemn.

Li Zi continued: "This Marquis knows that you are worried about your Majesty's safety, and this Marquis is also the same, but blindly avoiding the battle will only make the King of Jin gain more and more. Now the only way to defeat the Zang Fengwei is to let the King of Jin understand the court's determination, Your Majesty Only then can we turn danger into safety."

No one noticed the coldness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

The two guards of the southern camp were gradually mobilized, and the three thousand imperial guards were already eager to try.

Naturally, the movement of the imperial army could not escape the surveillance of Zang Fengwei, Wei Rui immediately ordered someone to report to the rear.

After hearing this, Pei Yue raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said to the young emperor beside him, "Your Majesty, do you know why Li Zi dared to do this?"

Liu Xian shook his head, his tone was quite cold: "I don't know."

Pei Yue probably understood his mood at the moment. After all, according to Li Zi, the emperor was coerced by King Jin, and instead of withdrawing the army to protect the safety of the emperor, he wanted to take the initiative to launch an attack. There are too many things worth pondering. detail.

He sighed softly, and said unhurriedly: "Because Li Zi knows what happened today, he has already accused Chen An of rebellion. If I dare to harm His Majesty, even if I can defeat the tens of thousands of people in front of me today The army will eventually become the target of thousands of people, and anyone who is loyal to Daliang will fight with his ministers forever."

His words were very frank and reasonable. After all, seeking to usurp the throne was a technical job. Back then, Wang Pingzhang did not dare to openly rebel. Instead, he conspired with other people to make preparations, and used the hands of Empress Chen to kill the king.There are countless clear examples in the history books, the fate of those who openly kill the king is extremely miserable, even if the power is already in the hands of life and death, there must be a set of procedures of abdication on the surface.

Of course Liu Xian understood this truth, but his hatred for Li Zi became more and more intense in his heart, and he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Would you do this?"

Pei Yue smiled slightly, and asked meaningfully: "Why do you want to do this?"

Liu Xian stared at his clear eyes and nodded slowly.

The smile on Pei Yue's face faded, and there was a bit of coldness in his tone: "Your Majesty, I have given Li Zi a chance, but he is still obsessed with it, so I don't intend to continue to be gentle."

Liu Xian turned his head and looked at the forest of spears and cavalry in front of him, and said indifferently: "Such people who have no king and no father should naturally be killed."

Pei Yue looked at Feng Yi, said a few words calmly, and the latter understood it, and immediately galloped forward.

After Wei Rui received the order, he immediately said to the herald: "Tell Chen Xianda that His Highness wants him to destroy the imperial army in one round."

In front of the army formation, Chen Xianda held a broad-bladed plain knife in one hand, and after hearing the report from the herald, he grinned ferociously, and then said: "Please report to the prince, and let the elders and young masters of the imperial army know What is courting death!"

He raised the plain knife forward, and said proudly: "My sons, let me kill you!"

"kill!"

Under the leadership of Chen Xianda, the vanguard three thousand riders swept forward like a flowing iron curtain, aiming directly at the forbidden army in the center of the imperial court formation.

Because this time they were guarding the holy driver, the imperial army obviously did not bring chariots, but there were arrangements for pikemen and archers.Li Zi let the three thousand imperial guards be the main force in the center and the front, and the Shanyang Guard and the Jiangdu Guard were divided into two wings. He originally hoped to use the main force to block the first wave of the Tibetan Front Guard's offensive and to boost morale.

The torrent ahead is rolling, and the momentum is compelling.

The imperial army resisted horses with spears, and behind them were longbowmen waiting in formation. When the vanguard of the Tibetan front guard was about to enter the place of shooting, the arrows rained like locusts and slanted forward.

However, although the Tibetan front guards are not heavy cavalry, they also have leather armor to cover their bodies and horses. In addition, the vanguard under Chen Xianda's command has been on the battlefield for a long time and has extremely rich experience in facing the enemy.Although the rain of arrows from the imperial army was fierce, at the moment when the longbowmen raised their bows and set their arrows, the three thousand cavalry quickly spread out in the process of attacking, minimizing the threat of the imperial army's strong bows.Chen Xianda, who took the lead, showed no fear, and swung the wide-bladed simple knife in his hand, easily shooting down the long arrows coming towards him.

When they came within the attacking range of the archers of the imperial army, the cavalry suddenly accelerated, and the loose formation immediately gathered in the middle. With Chen Xianda and more than a hundred fearless people forming the tip of the sword, they rushed straight to the core of the imperial army.

From the beginning to the end, Chen Xianda did not issue an order. The three thousand cavalry under his command seemed to be of one mind. The tactical quality displayed under the attention of all the people was excellent, and it was somewhat dizzying in the cold and chilling atmosphere. Fascinated by beauty.

Li Zi, who witnessed all this, looked gloomy, and no one knew that his right hand holding the gun trembled slightly.

Generally speaking, the cavalry would not directly force their way into the infantry formation, but today all the soldiers of the Zangfengwei knew that their prince was framed by the court, and the anger in their hearts had already swallowed the world.These Lingzhou veterans treat Pei Yue like a god, even if Pei Yue really leads them to raise the flag to rebel, no one from top to bottom will hesitate.

Furthermore, the imperial army lacked enough field experience after all, and the formation they formed had many flaws in the eyes of veterans like Zang Fengwei.

Chen Xianda has a rough temperament, but he has an almost beast-like instinct for killing the enemy. What's more, he is still the bloodthirsty Chen Manzi until now.

"Who dares to be an enemy of my prince?!"

One wild word after another spewed out from his mouth, and as the broad-bladed plain knife slashed down, the three thousand riders ran head-on into the front line of the imperial army.

The waves crashed against the shore and rolled up a thousand piles of snow.

Li Zi's face suddenly changed. The Forbidden Army he was so proud of was not the enemy of Zang Fengwei, but was destroyed in an instant!

Outside the gate of the Circular Mound Altar, they heard the loud cheers from the soldiers of the Zangfeng Guards rushing forward, and all the ministers including Wu Cunren were frightened.Although they couldn't see the situation on the battlefield in the distance, no matter how stupid they were, they knew that the two armies were already strong and weak as soon as they met.

Liu Xian was also a little shocked. He thought it would be an evenly matched battle, or that the Zangfengwei could only have a certain advantage. After all, Li Zi's troops were twice as strong as here.

He couldn't help frowning, and murmured: "The imperial army's combat power is so weak?"

"Your Majesty, it's not that the imperial army is too weak."

Pei Yue took over the conversation, looking at the clouds and clouds in the sky calmly, his eyes could not hide his heroism: "The imperial army is not weak, but the Tibetan front guard is too strong."
