Chapter 511: Righteous Brothers
Li Yan is a person, when facing Li Shen, he has always been submissive, he can't fight back and scold and don't fight back, but he is definitely not a coward, this deputy general of the Pingnan Army killed people at the age of twelve, and after being taken by Li Zhijie to accept him as a righteous son, he has repeatedly performed miraculous feats on the battlefield in the southwest, charging forward every time he fights, and the lives in his hands have already passed thousands over the years.
Back then, the old marquis Li Zhijie once personally called him "Little Ye Sheng", but because Ye Sheng was a general under Emperor Wu, and Li Yan was a fierce general under his Li Zhijie, this name was only spread in the Pingnan Army for a period of time, and I was afraid that if it was spread to the imperial court, it would make people with intentions make a fuss.
Whether it is in terms of military merits or personal force, Li Yan is actually better than Li Shen, but because he is grateful for the kindness of the Li family and is impressed by Li Shen's political wisdom, he will obey Li Shen's words.
At the beginning, Li Shengan took a risk, and even did not hesitate to use himself to enter Beijing to replace Li Yan, but he couldn't bear to see the southwest lose such a fierce general, if Li Yan died, the southwest's combat strength would drop by at least two or three percent.
At this time, the southern Xinjiang side had already made up its mind, at least the first collision with Ye Ming would be beautiful, so Li Yan directly led people to ambush behind the city gate, and when Ye Ming's department approached, Li Yan directly led people to rush out!
His weapon was a horse lance.
This thing is similar to a spear, but the cost is higher, the lance should be stripped into a uniform thickness with a tough trunk, and then soaked in sesame oil for more than a year, and then glued together with high-quality glue, a high-quality horse lance production cycle is generally up to three years, after the hammer is made with the sound of gold and iron, and the production process must be extremely fine, in order to be qualified.
A horse lance, up to three or four meters, weighs fifteen to twenty pounds, is the absolute king of horse war cold weapons, but also one of the most lethal weapons, non-fierce generals can not use it.
Even the old man Ye Sheng, who was in his prime, only used a big gun, not a horse lance.
Of course, it's not that Old Man Ye doesn't need it, it's just that because he was relatively poor when he was young, he really couldn't afford to use a horse lance.
In fact, the reason why this thing is gradually being eliminated is because the cost is too expensive.
And Li Yan is different, he began to refine the horse lance after following Li Zhijie, at this time holding a big lance, killing into the crowd, his mount is also a rare divine horse, rushing into the crowd The horse lance waved, that is, three or four people were lying on the ground, only a moment of effort, the southwest general's clothes and armor were full of blood, and he still roared to himself.
"Brothers, follow me to the past!"
On the battlefield, there was such a fierce boss with him, which was very morale-boosting, and with Li Yan's charge, Ye Ming's department was quickly torn open, not only failed to move to the city, but was forced to retreat step by step by Li Yan.
The scenes on the battlefield were clearly seen by Ye Shaobao in the distance.
Of course, it's not because Ye Ming has any clairvoyance, but because of the clairvoyant mirror that Li Xin made two years ago, this thing has not been popularized because of its high cost, but the first batch of clairvoyance, Ye Ming was assigned to one, at this time, the chief general of the Western Army, turned a blind eye, and used this monocular to look at the battle situation in the distance.
After a moment, he slowly lowered the clairvoyant mirror in his hand.
"I heard that Li Shen, the righteous brother, is very fierce in battle, but when I look at it today, it is really fierce."
General Ye felt a little aggrieved at this time.
In fact, it didn't take long for him to take over the forbidden army, and it was only half a year since he was full, and he only took this forbidden army temporarily, and he didn't know much about it, if it was the Zhenbei Army that he had brought for more than ten years, at this time Ye Ming was sure to beat Li Yan and them back to Hanzhong City, and it was even possible to take this opportunity to enter Hanzhong City.
But now, this practice is too risky.
In the end, more than ten years of experience in leading troops made Ye Ming quickly make up his mind.
He turned his head to the herald and said in a deep voice: "Mingjin, you don't have to confront these people, you will lose your life in vain. ”
This decision is undoubtedly very correct, because Ye Ming knows very well in his heart that the Pingnan Army just wants to win this first battle, so Li Yan will be so desperate, but as long as he temporarily avoids the edge, the next Pingnan Army will not have this kind of sharpness, and at that time, Ye Ming's side will have the advantage of troops, and it is impossible for Hanzhong to go out of the city again to meet the enemy no matter what.
The forbidden army is the elite guarding Gyeonggi, and it is also the elite of the standing army of the Great Jin Dynasty, and the order and prohibition are the most basic elite qualities.
Li Yan seemed to be red-eyed and led people to chase all the way.
Ye Ming in the distance looked angry.
He slowly put down the clairvoyant mirror in his hand, and a cold expression appeared on his face.
If Li Yan dared to chase him out of the city for ten miles, Ye Ming would undoubtedly order him to be killed.
Li Yan, who seemed to be fierce, seemed to be aware of Ye Ming's intentions, and he led people to chase him all the way to a place of seven or eight miles, so he laughed and grabbed the reins.
"What kind of imperial forbidden army, vulnerable!"
He laughed loudly, and even the Pingnan army with the pursuit also laughed, Li Yan turned his horse's head and said loudly: "Brothers, poor Kou Mo chase, let's go back to Hanzhong first, Lao Tzu invites the big guy to eat meat!" ”
After that, he took these elites of the Pingnan Army and roared back to Hanzhong City.
Those forbidden troops who were ordered to retreat were ridiculed by Li Yan like this, and their faces were ugly, but the military orders were like mountains, and these people had no choice but to watch Li Yan go away.
Li Yan's horse was extremely fast, he was the first to return to Hanzhong City, and as soon as he entered the city gate, he saw Li Shen, the Marquis of Pingnan, already waiting for him behind the city gate.
Li Shen took the horse with his own hands, holding the reins of the horse with one hand, and then helped Li Yan off the horse with the other hand.
The red blood flowed down Li Shen's arm.
This is Li Yan's blood.
In order to play momentum just now, Li Yan was forced to be helpless, and rushed to the front alone.
He is a general, he should have rushed into battle, and he should have rushed with his own soldiers, and there were people who blocked the two wings for him with his own soldiers, but just now in order to tear a hole as soon as possible, Li Yan rushed over alone.
No matter how brave he is, after all, he is still a mortal in the flesh, and if he gets into the crowd like this, he can kill all sides, but how can he not be injured?
After all, he is facing the elite forbidden army of the imperial court, not a chicken boy who has no power to fight back.
He was stabbed in the ribs and in the back, but because he was covered in the blood of the enemy, he was holding on just now, so outsiders couldn't see it.
Li Shen could naturally see it.
After he helped Li Yan down, he frowned slightly.
"Why are you rushing like this? Just now, as long as someone closes to the body with a crossbow arrow, you will shoot someone. ”
Li Yan was supported by Li Shen, the arrogance just now had disappeared, and he barely squeezed out a wry smile.
"I know that the eldest brother hates the younger brother, so I want to do more things for the eldest brother......"
"You died here, just to do something for me?"
Li Shen snorted.
"What use do these dozens of people you killed in the whole battle? If you die here, you are not as useful as my fifty officers and soldiers of the Pingnan Army! ”
Li Shen said coldly while supporting him.
"The next time something like this happens, you'll just die on the battlefield!"
