Who is Yang Shihou
This is a person who is highly regarded in history.
According to historical records, after Huang Chao's death, he surrendered to Zhu Wen and successively defeated many famous figures of the Five Dynasties, including Li Maozhen, Wang Shifan, and Wang Maozhang.
In the Battle of Mengkeng, Yang Shihou defeated three famous generals, Zhou Dewei, Ding Hui, and Fu Cunshen, and joined forces with his subordinates to lift the siege of Jinzhou.
The fact that the Later Liang Dynasty was able to control the Jingxiang area was all due to the efforts of one man, who had made great military achievements and was a hero throughout his life.
He was the most outstanding general of Later Liang and supported three emperors. Li Cunxu of Later Tang once did not dare to attack Hebei because of Yang Shihou's existence.
Zhu Li's usual tactics of bewitching were instantly seen through by Yang Shihou.
That was not all. Yang Shihou took advantage of the situation and loudly called on the Cao army to rise up and resist the attack of the Xuzhou army. He declared that as long as Li Hanzhi, who was fighting outside, heard the news that the camp was attacked, he would definitely return to support. This boosted morale and stabilized the military spirit, and his style of being a famous general who remained calm in the face of danger was fully displayed.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Li frowned and his face suddenly changed.
The wonderful expression was as ugly as if he was caught lying in public.
As the saying goes, if soft tactics don't work, have to use hard tactics. Zhu Li put this truth into practice very well. He waved his hand to signal Han Zhi and Xu Kan to divide their forces and attack, while he waved his spear and rode his horse straight to attack Yang Shihou.
When countless Grass Army guards saw that the enemy general obviously had evil intentions, they immediately rushed forward. In an instant, spears were like a forest and swords were brandished like rain, stabbing straight at Zhu Li. However, no matter how many ordinary guards came, they were of no use to Zhu Li now.
His spear was seen flying and spinning like a screen. He was on horseback, but only a faint light could be seen, not the horse or the man. As long as the spear and iron spear touched the faint light, they would either break immediately or roll back and hit the guards themselves.
The spears formed a screen of light and rushed forward at high speed. The guards along the way fell like waves. The scene was like a tornado rapidly sweeping through the wheat field, and the wheat seedlings on both sides fell down one after another.
Seeing this scene, Yang Shihou was shocked. What a fierce general! It seems that ordinary guards can't stop this guy at all. Let me weigh you up. In an instant, he made a decision.
Poor Yang Shihou, although he saw through Zhu Li's sinister intentions, he never imagined that this guy with a ghost face was the Zhu Li who once made the Cao army tremble with fear.
Zhu Li captured Meng Juehai, the most powerful general of the Cao army, alive. He won three battles in a row and defeated the Cao army, forcing Huang Chao to flee from Chang'an in a hurry. In the Cao army, Zhu Li was cursed like a plague god.
But since Chang'an was recovered, Zhu Li was listed as a traitor by Tian Lingzi and others, and the Cao army lost the threat of this plague god. None of the Cao army guards here would ever have imagined that the man with a ghost face in front of them was the one they hailed as the plague god.
Yang Shihou himself is definitely not weak in strength. Although he cannot be compared with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who are famous generals throughout the ages, he can still compete with Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Although he saw Zhu Li rushing towards him, he was not afraid at all.
Facing Zhu Li, Yang Shihou did not dare to be negligent at all. He rushed forward and swung the spear in his hand, stabbing it directly at the rotating screen of dim light. There was a "clang" sound, and the spear and spear collided. Yang Shihou's whole body shook violently, and the knuckles broke instantly.
This sudden change made him turn pale immediately. What was going on
How could he not be able to get past even one blow? Yang Shihou couldn't believe it was true. Under the huge shock, his whole body became stiff for a moment.
In the past, Zhu Li was already the bravest of the three armies, comparable to Guan and Zhang. What's more, the current Zhu Li is no longer a Wuxia A'mon. As the saying goes, when you haven't seen someone for three days, you should look at him with new eyes. Now, it has been almost a year since Zhu Li was almost beaten to death by Li Cunxiao.
Zhu Li has been practicing martial arts for nearly a year without interruption, and with the blessing of the magical beast Luwu, it can be said that even if he is not yet a match for Li Cunxiao, the gap between them is not that big.
Li Cunxiao's military record was the best among the Five Dynasties. He was invincible and brave, shocking the world and making ghosts and gods cry. In today's words, this person was a bug-like character.
There are battle records to prove it. Meng Juehai of the Fifth Dynasty was captured by him with one blow; Wang Yanzhang, the god of war of Daliang, was beaten by him until he vomited blood; even after his death, he scared Wang Yantong to death, and so on. His numerous fierce battle records are all jaw-dropping.
Zhu Li has always been targeting Li Cunxiao and Wu Dao, but now he has grown to a terrifying level. People like Yan Liang and Wen Chou are no longer comparable to him, not to mention Yang Shihou, who is only comparable to Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
At the moment when Yang Shihou froze, Zhu Li instantly caught this opportunity. The masters were fighting each other, and it was a matter of life and death. Yang Shihou was not as good as Zhu Li, but he dared to be dazed. Wasn't he courting death
A spear flew out, unnoticed by gods or ghosts, and seemed to pass through the space, avoiding the air currents, silently and fiercely, like an antelope hanging on a horn, or a wild horse running freely. It was so strange that it did not seem like a human stunt.
Yang Shihou only felt that he had just made a powerful attack and before he had time to catch his breath, a spear suddenly appeared in front of him.
This bizarre scene frightened him as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight. Cold sweat suddenly broke out and his thoughts froze. Without thinking, he relied on instinct to quickly thrust out the gun with both hands to face the strange spear.
"Bang"
A huge force surged, and Yang Shihou suddenly felt as if he was in the midst of a raging sea. His body was involuntarily rolled up by the surging waves, rising higher and higher.
At the same time, his throat felt sweet and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
In the eyes of the surrounding Grass Army guards, they saw their own general being lightly hit by the ghost-faced enemy general, and the whole person was thrown into the air immediately. A touch of cold and bright blood suddenly flew and dyed the sky.
Looking at the enemy general again, he was not satisfied after knocking down his own general. He swept his spear across, knocking down countless comrades who wanted to rush forward to rescue General Yang Shihou. He rode his horse and chased after General Yang. From a distance, he looked like a knight flying a kite, galloping under the kite.
Zhu Li didn't care about Yang Shihou's life or death, but considering that Han Zhi would be in charge of Xuzhou in the future and would need manpower, he showed mercy and prepared to capture him alive.
This man remained calm in the face of danger and was able to distinguish right from wrong. He was indeed a good assistant general. Thinking of this, Yang Shihou in the sky happened to fall down. Zhu Li stretched out his hand and caught him easily. He knocked him out with a hit and handed him to a temporary soldier behind him.
The guard quickly took Yang Shihou's body, laid him across the horse's back, and immediately drove the horse to catch up with the god-like general in front of him. At this moment, a strange thought came to the mind of the temporary guard. How could he
I hope I am not a temporary guard. If I can follow such a brave general on the battlefield, I would be willing to die. It is too fierce, too exciting, and too shocking.
The enemy general is vulnerable to a single blow; countless soldiers and guards are like straws that fly away at the touch of a finger. Is there anything cooler than this
Without mentioning the temporary guards' imagination, it is said that Yang Shihou was captured in one move. It was not because he was weak, but because Zhu Li was too strong. What's more, he was a spear general. Since ancient times, spear generals have been known for their skills. In battle, they mainly use the skills of using a little force to defeat a great force to resist the enemy. But today, Zhu Li did not give Yang Shihou any chance to perform.
His tentative shot in the morning was stunned by Zhu Li's fierce spinning spear screen, and then he was captured by Zhu Li's peak spear. If he could still escape from Zhu Li's palm, it would be a miracle. This can be said that Master Yang was wise all his life but confused for a moment.
On the banks of the Bian River, the Xuzhou Ganhua Army camp.
A general wearing a silver helmet and iron armor sat in the big tent with a very gloomy expression. This man was Liu Zhijun, who was highly valued by Shi Pu.
Shi Pu valued Liu Zhijun's bravery, but was very afraid of his wisdom. Therefore, this was not a good thing for Liu Zhijun. Making his superiors afraid of him would be unsettling for anyone.
In the big tent, in addition to Liu Zhijun, there was also a scholar wearing a turban. His name was An Shiru, a talented civil official under Zhu Wen. He came here to appease Liu Zhijun.
As early as the beginning of the war, Liu Zhijun sent people to contact Zhu Wen, intending to surrender to the other side, but it was really inconvenient for Zhu Wen to accept him at this time, which led to the scene before us.
"General Manager Zhu intends to recruit Liu under his command, but tells Liu that he doesn't need to go and serve for the time being. What does this mean?" Liu Zhijun's face looked a little ugly. It would be fine if he met a master who was wary of him, but he wanted to climb up the ladder, but what he got in return was Zhu Wen's secret agreement, but on the surface he asked him to keep his troops in place for the time being. It would be strange if his face looked good.
"General Liu, there is no need to be angry. The chief steward is also thinking about the general's reputation."
"Now is the critical moment for the steward, Li Keyong, Zhao, and your Xuzhou Jiedushi Shi Pu to attack Huang Chao together. If General Liu suddenly surrenders to my steward at this moment, not only will it be difficult for my steward to explain to the world, but General Liu's reputation will also be affected." An Shiru explained patiently.
Liu Zhijun had a complicated expression when he heard this. He wanted to break away from Shi Pu, but he was mainly worried that Shi Pu would frame him. Although Zhu Wen had agreed to his surrender, he asked him to keep his troops in place for the time being. This made him feel torn and frustrated.
At this moment, a lieutenant suddenly rushed in with an excited look on his face, as if he had received some good news. He suddenly discovered that there was a stranger in the big tent, so the words he wanted to blurt out were suddenly held back.
This man is Zhang Yun, Liu Zhijun's confidant, and he is not a man who would keep quiet. According to historical records, he forced the governor to leave and took the position himself. However, now he is just a small general under the command of the Qianhua Army.
Liu Zhijun saw all of this and his expression eased a lot. Judging from the other person's expression, something happy must have happened. Right now, he especially needed some good news to comfort his fragile heart.
