"Subordinates obey." Bai Hexing was also overjoyed when he heard Zhao Guang's instructions. He didn't expect to persuade Zhao Guang to agree immediately. This result couldn't be better. After all, Chengxiang City in Meizhou is the rear of Nan'an Military City. If Bai Hexing were to implement Liu Yi's plan, it would be absolutely impossible to bypass Zhao Guang. Although Zhao Guang did not agree, at least he did not object, which would allow Bai Hexing to make plans in Meizhou justifiably.
After getting Zhao Guang's approval, Bai Hexing immediately left, and finally Zhao Guang was left alone in the discussion palace. Zhao Guang stood up slowly, stepped to the door, looked up at the sky, sighed, and whispered: "Liu Tong, don't blame me."
Regarding the importance of Shangyou, both the Song Army and Liu Jiajun were very clear. Nangong Xiong led five thousand elite soldiers from Meizhou to Nan'an Military City. Liu Tong also allocated five thousand elite soldiers to Nangong Xiong, raising enough for 10,000 horses. When Nangong Xiong's army rushed to Shangyou, the Song army also sent general Lin Yuhu to lead the Song army with more than 8,000 men to guard Shangyou. This battle, which represented the final battle between the Song Army and the Liu Jiajun, kicked off a new prelude.
The strength of the two sides is almost the same. Although the Liu Jiajun is more in number, after all, Liu Jiajun is a temporary army composed of veterans and recruits, and the combat effectiveness is definitely not as good as the Song army. The two sides are even in terms of military strength, so the outcome of this battle depends on the commander's ability.
Regardless of whether it was Lin Yuhu or Nangong Xiong, the two were the kind of generals who were good at head-on confrontation. The two armies set up a battle in the plains, preparing for a head-on head-on battle.
As the sun rose, the two armies lined up on their respective territories, and the two armies were separated by three miles. Nangong Xiong is wearing silver armor, holding a big spear, and riding a white horse, looking forward. Behind him, 10,000 Liu Jiajun soldiers lined up in a square formation. The front line was spearmen and sword and shield soldiers, with a total of 8,000 people. In the back, there are two thousand archers. The arrows of the archers have been placed on the strings, and they can shoot the arrows in their hands at any time, waiting for the command of the general.
On the opposite side, Lin Yuhu is still in the black armor, wearing a black helmet with a mask on his head, and at the same time covering his terrifying face, leaving only two eye holes, shooting out Lin Yuhu’s unique eye from time to time. Refined light.
He clenched the halberd with both hands. This iron halberd was a bit bigger than the iron halberd used by Lin Yuhu when he joined Song Emperor Zhao Zhen's tent, and it was made of 100-smelting alloy steel refined from the Taihangshan Metallurgical Steelmaking Base. Forging, under the sunshine of the rising sun, blue cold light flows from time to time on the edge of the iron halberd.
The mount Lin Yuhu sat on was a tall maroon horse. Lin Yuhu's stature is tall, and ordinary war horses can't afford Lin Yuhu's weight. However, this war horse is much taller than ordinary war horses. It is a Western domain horse. In addition to Lin Yuhu's tall body, it was almost like a mountain.
Behind Lin Yuhu, the eight thousand soldiers of the Song Army were lined up in a two-wing formation, with five thousand pikemen on the left, five thousand swordsmen on the right, and two thousand archers in the center. They were also ready to go.
Looking at this momentum, Lin Yuhu obviously has the upper hand, but the victory or defeat on this battlefield does not depend solely on momentum. Nangong Xiong looked at Lin Yuhu in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Do you dare to fight a certain family?" It has reached this point. It is useless to say that those useless nonsense is of no avail. .
Lin Yuhu could not see his expression because he was wearing a mask on his face, but from under the mask came Lin Yuhu's unique muffled words and said: "Why don't you dare!" After finishing Lin Yuhu's legs, the horse neighed. With a sound, Lin Yuhu rushed forward carrying Lin Yuhu. And Nangong Xiong heard Lin Yuhu's words, his face also showed an expression of excitement, grinned, and also moved forward.
Although the horse that Nangong Xiong sat on was not as prestigious as Lin Yuhu's mount, it was also a rare good horse. The two horses rushed to one piece quickly, and Lin Yuhu's great war halberd and Nangong Xiong's big spear shot out at the same time, intertwined between the two, rubbing countless sparks, mixed with harsh rubbing sounds.
"Kill!" In terms of strength, Lin Yuhu undoubtedly has an absolute advantage among the two. Although Nangong Xiong gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, he was pushed back by Lin Yuhu and led the horse back several steps. However, this did not affect Nangong Xiong's confidence. Strength has never been where Nangong Xiong's advantage lies. After calming the mount, Nangong Xiong's eyes flashed, and he raised the big spear and began to attack Lin Yuhu in turn.
Speed is indeed not Lin Yuhu’s strong point. Seeing Nangong Xiong’s big gun, it seemed to strike at him like lightning. Lin Yuhu snorted, and the big iron halberd in his hand pierced forward and swiped left and right, wanting to use it. Range attack to block Nangong Xiong's big gun. However, Nangong Xiong's gun was not so easy to block. The iron halberd brushed the big gun, but did not touch the big gun. The spear flew up and down, stabbing left and right, but stabbed at Lin Yuhu's body in a very strange trajectory.
"Humph." Lin Yuhu snorted, and the iron halberd turned around in his hand, and pierced Nangong Xiong's chest with his backhand.
Nangong Xiong was also shocked when he saw the enemy's play that would hurt both sides. Facing Lin Yuhu's counterattack, Nangong Xiong quickly retracted the big gun, put it on his chest, and blocked the iron halberd. However, even though it blocked the iron halberd's attack, the power from the iron halberd made the mount that Nangong Xiong sat on unable to bear, and he backed a few steps again.
However, this time Lin Yuhu did not give Nangong Xiong another chance to attack. While Nangong Xiong was backing, Lin Yuhu clamped his legs, and the horse rushed towards Nangong Xiong. A pair of iron halberds had already been raised above his chest. , Respectively aimed at Nangong Xiong's face door and chest and pierced down.
Lin Yuhu's attack, Nangong Xiong did not dare to take it any more. Just after he had resisted Lin Yuhu's two attacks, Nangong Xiong's hands were already a little numb. Nangong Xiong twisted his body and dodged Lin Yuhu's attack dangerously. At the same time, the big spear stabbed again, intersecting with Lin Yuhu's iron halberd, leaving two wounds on Lin Yuhu's body. However, Lin Yuhu’s attack was not so easy to dodge. When Lin Yuhu’s wrist was turned, the iron halberd that had been hiding in the past suddenly turned around and landed accurately on Nangong Xiong’s thigh. A blood hole.
After Nangong Xiong suffered these two blows, Nangong Xiong's body was trembling with pain, and he almost didn't fall off his horse. However, Nangong Xiong was also hardened. He also knew that this battle represented the fate of Liu Jiajun this time, and he could never be defeated. Nangong Xiong gritted his teeth, and didn't withdraw the big spear in his hand. Instead, he stabbed it out again, piercing the wound on Lin Yuhu's body a few more points.
Now, no matter how strong Lin Yuhu's body was, he couldn't bear it. He snorted, clamped his legs, and the horse took a step back, and then he pulled out the big gun that had penetrated deeply into his body.
Lin Yuhu raised his head, staring at Nangong Xiong with a pair of shining eyes, and said: "I am a good man." After the four words were uttered, Lin Yuhu raised his iron halberd and slammed forward again. And at the moment when Lin Yuhu backed away, Nangong Xiong also put the big gun on his chest and put on a defensive posture. At the same time, he quickly glanced at the wound on his thigh. The spikes of the iron halberd made two points. Although the blood hole is not big, it is very deep. At this moment, the blood is rushing out. However, Nangong Xiong didn't have the time to bandage the wound now. He just glanced at it and stared at Lin Yuhu with full energy.
Regardless of the fact that Lin Yuhu fought not many tough battles under the account of Emperor Zhao Zhen of the Song Dynasty, but only a few battles were enough to fulfill his fame. In terms of skill, Lin Yuhu is not inferior to Shan Hongfei, Zhao Yun, Yang Fan, Di Lei, Yan Chengfang among the generals of the Song army, and even faintly surpasses Zhao Yun and others. In addition, in the past few years, the army of the majestic generals and Zhao Zhen's imperial guards and all the majestic generals are in the north. Therefore, Lin Yuhu is now the first fierce general of the Southern Army of the Song Army.
In contrast, Nangong Xiong is naturally better than Lin Yuhu, but Nangong Xiong’s fighting spirit is not weakened at all because of this. After being injured, Nangong Xiong has played more and more fiercely, regardless of defense. Even if it was to lose his life, Lin Yuhu would have to pay the price.
Lin Yuhu has the upper hand, so naturally he will not fight against Nangong Xiong. He can see that Nangong Xiong is only fighting with one breath now. Over time, the breath in Nangong Xiong's chest has vented, and his fighting power will soon It will drop more than one thing.
In this way, the two guns went back and forth, and they played happily. Although Lin Yuhu gradually grasped the initiative, he was not eager to defeat Nangong Xiong, but focused on defense. Lin Yuhu's tricks were originally more inclined to defend, so although Lin Yuhu's speed is not as fast as Nangong Xiong, but with such concentration on defense, Nangong Xiong can't help him. And Lin Yuhu attacked a move from time to time, but every move must be hit. Soon, Nangong Xiong's body was already covered with blood, and it looked terrifying.
It was another hit, splashing a few blood flowers, Lin Yuhu retracted the iron halberd, coldly looked at the panting Nangong Xiong in front of him, and said, "surrender! Don't die."
At this time, Nangong Xiong was obviously unable to fight anymore, and nearly twenty wounds, large and small, had been left on his body. However, this was not what made Nangong Xiong feel the most painful, but it was Lin Yuhu's contemptuous eyes that made Nangong Xiong feel the most hurt. This look is simply a huge insult to a heroic fighter like Nangong Xiong. Nangong Xiong's teeth were about to be crushed, and he shouted angrily: "Want me to surrender? Dream! If you have the ability, come and take my life. I will never betray Liu Jiajun."
Lin Yuhu did not respond to Nangong Xiong's words, but directly raised the Great War Halberd and stabbed Nangong Xiong again. Since he refuses to surrender, there is only a dead end. With a character like Lin Yuhu, action is his best response. In the face of Lin Yuhu's attack, Nangong Xiong, who was barely sitting on horseback, was unable to dodge at all. He could only watch the sharp spikes getting closer and closer to his face.
"Shoo!" There was a sound of breaking through the air, and a black shadow shot out from Liu Jiajun's army, but a flying arrow was rushing towards Lin Yuhu's face, which immediately caused a cry of exclamation. And this arrow was shot quickly and urgently, Lin Yuhu had no time to retract the war halberd to block it. Seeing that the arrow was about to hit Lin Yuhu, Lin Yuhu could barely shift his head. With a clang, Lin Yuhu's helmet flew into the sky with the arrow, and at the same time a bloody flower was brought up.
The soldiers of the Song Army all looked at Lin Yuhu nervously, but they were relieved soon, because there was no other wound on Lin Yuhu's head except for a scar on his cheek. Obviously, although the arrow was shot in a hurry, it was blocked by Lin Yuhu's helmet, and now he just shot the helmet down. Without the helmet, Lin Yuhu's dark face was revealed.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Yuhu withdrew his great war halberd and turned his head to look in the direction of the Liu Jiajun army. His eyes were full of brilliance, and his hair was yellow and scattered, drifting in the wind.
Lin Yuhu returned his hand with a flying knife, and the Liu Jiajun warrior who was shooting an arrow in the Liu Jiajun army was shot directly in the chest by Lin Yuhu's flying knife. I saw that the archery general raised his eyes, clutching his chest, and couldn't breathe anymore. Immediately after foaming at the mouth, he fell off the horse's back and was stabbed to death by a flying knife.
Nangong Xiong no longer has the confidence to win at this moment, knowing that he can't win, and staying there can only be humiliated. He gritted his teeth immediately, pulled up the reins, turned his horse's head, and rushed towards the Liu Jiajun army behind him. Lin Yuhu snorted coldly, but he didn't mean to chase after him. He stared at Nangong Xiong's back, and stretched one hand into his waist, and immediately there were two more flying knives in his hand. As Lin Yuhu threw his hand, those two flew away. The knife quickly ran towards Nangong Xiong's back.
Lin Yuhu's flying knife skill, that is Lin Yuhu's housekeeping skill, the flying knife is fast and accurate. If Nangong Xiong is facing the enemy head-on, he might be able to avoid it. But now Nangong Xiong turned his back to Lin Yuhu and was seriously injured. He didn't even notice the crisis coming from his back. Nangong Xiong who was running felt a sudden pain in his back and left arm, and he threw himself on the horse like this, and reluctantly fled back to the army by relying on his horse.
Lin Yuhu also didn't expect that Nangong Xiong would escape with his own throwing knife. Some unexpectedly stunned for a while. Of course, he wouldn't be so stupid that he would kill Nangong Xiong alone in the enemy's army.
Immediately, Lin Yuhu waved the iron halberd in his hand and shouted to the morale Song Army behind him: "Left and right wings! Surround the enemy and shoot the enemy. The Chinese army assault!"
The brief but clear military order, the Song Army soldiers who could not wait long ago, began to maintain their position and attacked the Liu Jiajun army. The archers located on the two wings first shot a round of arrows, then ran forward ten steps, and then shot arrows. Repeatedly, the arrow rain intensively shot towards the Liu Jiajun army, and at the same time provided the impact of the Chinese army. Covered.
On the other side, after Nangong Xiong fled back to Liu Jiajun's army, he immediately fell off his horseback. Fortunately, several soldiers stepped forward to protect Nangong Xiong, but Nangong Xiong had already passed out at this moment. The Liu Jiajun officers on the left and right saw that Song Jun had begun to charge. They all looked anxious, and finally turned their heads to one of the soldiers, but it was Song Dashan who was Vice-General Nangong Xiong this time.
Song Dashan originally stayed in Nan'an Military City. Before Nangong Xiong led five thousand soldiers and horses to pass through Nan'an Military City. Liu Tong also allocated five thousand soldiers to Nangong Xiong. At the same time, he also let Song Dashan and another Liu Jiajun general Come here with Nangong Xiong. And it was the general who shot the cold arrow before. It's just that although this warlord saved Nangong Xiong's life with one arrow, he was killed by Lin Yuhu with a flying knife.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Song Dashan also knew that now only himself in the army is qualified to give orders, and immediately Song Dashan also took a deep breath and shouted to the officers at all levels: "Armed to meet the enemy. Our army has returned. The strength of a battle cannot be given up lightly. The front army and the middle army are divided into left and right sides, forming a semicircular formation to meet the enemy, and the archers shoot arrows on the spot."
Although these Liu Congxi soldiers were mixed with many recruits, Song Dashan's order, coupled with the command of officers at all levels in the army, completed Song Dashan's military order arrangement before the Song army arrived.
Seeing the changes in Liu Jiajun’s army, Lin Yuhu saw the changes in his eyes, but his face was expressionless. The soldiers coming from behind picked up the helmet from a distance and handed it to Lin Yuhu, but Lin Yuhu didn’t even look at it and just threw it away. When he got to the side, he carried the great war halberd, and smashed the horse.
