Section 0943 Covenant of Life and Death
For Willow's persuasion, Wood stepped forward:
"Your Excellency, the real brave man is in a contest, there is no room for the slightest hand, the slightest show of weakness may be defeated, the fight to the death is not to kill the other party, but to have the consciousness of being killed. I plead, fight to the death. ”
"This ......"
"I also ask for a life-and-death fight, only the strongest are qualified to marry General Niu's daughter." After Konoe Tadahito made a further statement, Yanagi looked embarrassed.
Niu Jinda laughed heartily at this time: "Okay, I am quite old and I compete with people, and I also write a life and death contract." Please ask the Emperor to decide. ”
Li Yuan nodded: "I'm right, but don't be too hasty in this matter." ”
Liu Mu said: "In the afternoon after three days, each of them will go back and prepare. Logistics officer, everything the two generals need without asking for instructions, they must be done as much as possible. The two generals also make a note that this is a contest, just a contest. ”
Liu Mu was still acting as a good old man, with an expression that did not want casualties.
But when the protagonist appears, it's nonsense to say anything.
Konoe Tadahito saw the daughter of General Niu, who was almost 1.7 meters tall, and he believed that after marrying home, his son would be able to grow taller, as tall as the Tang people.
Woodwardly looked at a head full of pearls and precious silk all over his body.
Originally, he interrogated the nobles of Zhenla why they wanted to help the Six Edicts, but Li Yuan had no interest in it, and casually arranged for a military Sima to deal with this matter, and what Li Yuan wanted was a reason to destroy Zhenla and attack the Six Edicts again.
But for the current matter, Li Yuan was more interested.
The Tang Dynasty is still martial, and Qin Qiong had several life and death duels back then.
At night, there was a clear distinction in the barracks, although the Fusang soldiers and the Celts were not enemies, but because of this competition, they subconsciously left an open space in the camp.
The captains of the Tang Dynasty ran on both sides, drinking, eating meat, and telling stories.
Wood's camp consisted mainly of Celts, with a handful of Frankish axemen, Gothic hoplites, and a few hundred Vikings. They may have fought each other before, but now they are more like a family.
More than a dozen generals from the Mediterranean gathered together, and several generals from the Tang Dynasty brought meat, fish, and wine from the labor army.
A Tang general said: "When it comes to this competition, the one I am most convinced of is the King of Yijun. ”
Wood immediately asked, "Today, in front of the Emperor Taishang, I heard people mention the King of Yijun, I don't know what kind of person this King of Yijun is. ”
"The king of Yijun is surnamed Qin and his name is Qiongzi Shubao, and he is the eldest brother-in-law of Liu Yuma. When he was young, he was also a well-known figure in the green forest, and there was once a life-and-death duel that injured the other party and made the other party lose a finger, but they have been friends all these years. ”
Qin Qiong's story is true, and the rumors in the green forest are not all legends, many of them are true.
Qin Qiong's status in the green forest is out.
"What really made King Yijun famous was not the martial arts fighting when he was young, but that he rushed to the front every time he started a battle, and every time he could kill the enemy general, he was injured countless times."
After hearing Qin Qiong's story, Wood couldn't help but clench his fists.
He wants to fight for this breath, and his position in the Tang Dynasty generals depends on his personal force, ability to command troops, and military exploits.
Wood has seen with his own eyes the unpredictable fighting style of the Tang Dynasty, the battle of Saracen, the heavy troops of the Tang Dynasty hit the soft underbelly of Saracen again and again, and each time it was the superior forces attacking the weak enemy in the advantageous terrain.
This is the charm of the high-level commanders of the Tang Dynasty, compared to the fighting style that Wood once put on a hard fight, and whoever survived the most and who won, the war of the Tang Dynasty is art.
Wood remembers well that on one occasion his troops were ordered to ambush as many cavalry as they were.
At first, he thought it was a battle to the death, but it turned out that the enemy cavalry did not exert its impact at all, and they tripped over it in pieces, and their task was to surround the inmobile cavalry and cut it to death.
"Speaking of martial arts, there are two people you must know."
"Who?"
"Xue Rengui, Xi Jun buy."
When it comes to these two, Wood not only knows each other, but also compares them with each other, these two are very brave warriors, and they are extremely experienced in fighting, and they are like lions entering the flock on the battlefield.
"Yes, we've also exchanged martial arts with each other."
"They are married to the fourth and fifth sisters of Liu Yuma. In our Datang parlance, they are burden-bearing. You can understand that they are brothers, the two of them had a martial arts competition, although there was no life and death contract, but they were also beaten with blood all over their bodies. And that competition was fought under the auspices of their eldest brother-in-law, Yi Guogong. ”
"They're family?"
As soon as the generals of the Tang Dynasty explained to Wood, they understood that Liu Mu married a princess, his two sisters and three sisters, and married five generals, three of whom were already generals.
This world is amazing.
The Tang military general said again: "King Yijun doesn't like weak people, don't look at Liu Juma without using a sword, he is not weak." ”
Wood nodded vigorously.
Liu Mu is not weak, this is a strong man. Strength is not in martial arts, but in wisdom. Wood remembers clearly that for the battle of Saracen, they studied the tactics, and as a result, Liu Mu used four words to change the overall plan, and it was these four words that allowed them to fight for more than a month.
I also heard another statement.
Liu Mu's argument is that the one who kills the enemy, goes back with more soldiers to get coins, and drinks wine and eats meat is a good general.
Wood drank half the night, and woke up early the next morning, bare-chested, wielding a specially crafted thick-backed double sword, accompanied by four Celtic generals.
Konoe Tadahito was not idle, and one after another wooden sticks were hit on his body, and one by one the wooden sticks were broken.
You can only win, not lose.
Both sides are gathering strength for this life-and-death duel.
And Niu Jinda is leading people to set up a field, leaving a high platform for views, and an area for onlookers.
Li Yuan was accompanied by Liu Mu and was looking at the strategic map of the Indochina Peninsula in front of the sand table.
"Yes, that's good. Rest for half a month, and when a new batch of ordnance and supplies arrives, you can go north. If it goes well, the Tang army in Shu can be ordered to go south in the spring of next year, plus the soldiers transported to Ceylon, to encircle the six edicts. Very good, very good. ”
Li Yuan turned his head: "Mu, your tactics of raiding Zhenla King City are very clever, and without unified command, Zhenla has been divided into hundreds of small pieces, and it only takes time to clear them." ”
"Father, the firearms unit was used, and the military expenditure exceeded the standard."
"Hahaha." Li Yuan laughed a few times: "I mentioned the matter of military expenses again, and asked you for my father, who do you want on both sides to win." ”
Liu Mu asked rhetorically: "Father, does it matter who wins?" ”
