Chapter 104: The battle begins, and they join forces to defend against the enemy
The next morning, the sun rose in the east.
In the wilderness south of the Slaughter Wasteland, outside the Pegasus Thieves' camp.
After a month, Li Li met with "Flying Tiger" Huan Fei again.
In the face of the Jin Ge Iron Horse and the Li Li army, the Pegasus thieves showed panic for the first time, as if facing a great enemy, more than 12,000 Pegasus thieves swarmed out.
A moment later, Huan Fei, dressed in armor and holding a wolf-toothed hammer, galloped to the front of the battle.
His mount, the Xenomorph Bull Beast, was still a divine horse, and its running speed was not inferior to that of a good horse for a thousand miles, and it ran hundreds of steps in the blink of an eye, and it was majestic.
"The leader of the Flying Tigers has been absent for a long time. As soon as Heilongling said goodbye, a month has passed in a blink of an eye, but I didn't expect to meet the leader again today, which is really a blessing! Haha! β
Before the battle, Li Li rode out of the battle alone and ran to Huan Fei, his voice was hearty, his smile was still the same, and he was as warm and cordial as if he had met a close friend.
Looking at Li Li, who was smiling kindly, Huan Fei's brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
Although Li Li was still as comfortable as usual, Huan Fei clearly felt a fierce murderous aura rushing towards him.
The murderous aura came from the tens of thousands of iron horsemen behind Li Li, and Li Li himself was also surrounded by a violent aura.
After years of fighting on the battlefield, Huan Fei is convinced of his intuition.
In the face of such a strong killing aura of Li Li's army, as a peak powerhouse of the top generals, how could Huan Fei be unaware of the evil aura on Li Li's body?
A month and a half ago, Huan Fei didn't take Li Li in his eyes, let alone the soldiers and horses under Li Li's command. It's just a few thousand soldiers, and for the Pegasus thieves, they can be wiped out in a snap of a finger. And Li Li's martial arts that can enter the threshold of top generals are not in the eyes of Huan Fei, and generals of this strength, even if they are three or five together, he is ten percent sure that they will be killed one by one.
However, after a month and a half, when Huan Fei faced Li Li again at this moment, he inexplicably bred a little jealousy in his heart. And his previous self-confidence in facing Li Li was gone, replaced by a sudden vigilance, and an unprecedented sense of crisis lingered in his heart.
Li Li's martial arts have obviously improved a lot compared to before, and he has firmly ranked among the top fighters, but he is still not Huan Fei's opponent. This point, in the battle of Black Dragon Ridge, Huan Fei already knew it.
That is, from the beginning of that battle, Huan Fei began to face Li Li, and then began to pay attention to the generals under Li Li.
Under careful observation, he was awe-inspiring and even a little afraid.
Dian Wei, Teng Xiao and Teng Yu under Li Li actually have the strength of the middle level of top generals, among which Dian Wei and Teng Yu have a tendency to break through to the upper level of top generals, with strong combat power and superb martial arts. In addition, none of the other generals under Li Li are mediocre, all of them are top-level generals and first-class generals; The most important thing is that these people are all generals who can fight well, and their ability to lead troops to fight is still above their own martial arts.
Because of this jealousy in his heart, in the Battle of Black Dragon Ridge, Huan Fei originally planned to take advantage of the situation to annex Li Li's Shili and seize Wuwei County, but he finally dispelled this idea.
At that time, although Li Li only had 4,000 cavalry and more than 3,000 foot guards left, his combat strength was still there, and the generals under his command were brave. Even though Huan Fei could fight Li Li at the cost of casualties, the final result was between the two sides, and the outcome was unpredictable.
Because he was not sure of victory, he finally chose to temporarily lead his troops back to the cottage, wait for the opportunity, and make plans in the future.
What Huan Fei didn't expect was that he waited for Li Li's mighty and majestic army Chen Bing in front of the formation.
"Mrs. Li came to the door, Huan was disappointed, and I ask for forgiveness. I don't know what is the matter with Taishou? Or maybe γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ» Huanfei has something to offend Taishou, please give me advice. β
This is the first time that Huan Fei has spoken so politely to others in many years, and it is also the first time that he has been soft. There was no way, the situation was pressing, and he couldn't be arrogant, so he could only lower his posture and talk to Li Li calmly.
"Ugh! Huan Fei, you were born with a big voice, and now you suddenly choke your voice to speak, Ben Taishou is really not used to it. But that's okay, the soldiers present are all their own brothers, and they should respect each other and work together. β
Li Li could see the change in Huan Fei's expression clearly after he left the formation, and he also knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Now Huan Fei has relented, which is a bit unexpected by Li Li, but this is also the deterrent effect he wants to achieve this time.
After laughing, Li Li continued to Huan Fei with a pleasant face: "Late the night before yesterday, I was robbed at the slaughterhouse, and thousands of soldiers were lost, and thousands of war horses were plundered. This time, I led the army to exterminate these alien bandits wandering around the wasteland, recover the hijacked war horses, and completely wipe out the thieves around Wuwei County once and for all! β
When Li Li said this, the momentum on his body changed suddenly, and a domineering aura like substance lingered all over his body, making Huan Fei's eyelids jump and his heart fluttered.
"Leader Huan Fei, the last time you and I joined forces to resist the enemy, the battle was outstanding, and Han Sui's army fled for hundreds of miles. Will our two armies be able to join forces against the enemy again this time? If the Pegasus thieves can kill the Qiang and Southern Xiongnu warriors in the north of the wasteland in one fell swoop this time, then the wild horses in the depths of the wasteland will belong to you, and you only need to return the 6,000 war horses lost in our army's horse farm at that time. I wonder what the leader thinks? β
"Uh, is that true?" Huan Fei asked urgently with a happy face.
Li Li looked at Huan Fei with burning eyes, a trace of imperceptible weirdness flashed in the corners of his eyes, and he pretended to be displeased and asked, "Could it be that the leader can't trust Ben Taishou?" β
Huan Fei was stunned when he heard this, shook his head and said, "No, Li Taishou misunderstood, Huan had no such intention, just γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»." β
"Hehehe!"
Li Li interrupted Huan Fei's words with a smile, "Is the leader still thinking about the thousand gold that Ben Taishou promised?" Rest assured, chief, I have the gold ready, and when the matter is taken care of here, I will send someone to bring it to you. Although I, Li Li, am just a small county guard, but Li Mou promises to others, and he will definitely not keep his word!
At present, the leader can rest assured, as long as the Pegasus thieves can destroy the 5,000 Qiang light cavalry and the 3,000 Southern Hun cavalry, Li will definitely keep his promise, and all the wild horses will belong to you! Of course, I heard that the leader also has a trace of Qiang blood, and he can't bear to kill him, but it doesn't matter. As long as the Pegasus thieves can defeat or capture the Qiang cavalry, Li will never kill a Qiang in vain, and will treat them well, divide land and houses for them, and properly resettle them. In this case, the leader should be relieved, right? β
"Good! Huan Fei can be trusted too much, we are sure of our word! Huan Fei said loudly with a high spirit.
Li Li replied with a smile: "A word is a certainty!" We'll go our separate ways now, and we'll meet here before sunset today, hoping that the Pegasus thieves won't disappoint Li. β
"Don't worry, Taishou. This time, I Huan Fei personally led the battle, and the Pegasus pirates were invincible, and they will definitely return with a big victory! Haha! Huan Fei patted his chest with confidence.
After speaking, Huan Fei bowed his hand to Li Li and said goodbye, and then loudly scolded the Pegasus thieves to set off with the whole army, and led the army out with pride.
After bidding farewell to the Pegasus thieves, Li Li waved his hand, and the army behind him immediately changed from the rear team to the front team, and turned around and returned to the racecourse.
"My lord, are we really going to hand over all the wild horses to the Pegasus thieves? According to Meng Chong, there are tens of thousands of wild horses in the depths of the wasteland, each of which is a high-grade Western Regions horse, including many sweaty and bloody horses that travel thousands of miles a day, as well as the two golden beasts. If we raise these wild horses with captured war horses and cross breed, the war horses will be very good, and then our army will have a steady supply of war horses. Five years later, the formation of another 100,000 iron horsemen is not an empty word, it can be completely realized! β
On the way back, Teng Xiao rode the cloud treading horse and said to Li Li urgently.
"Hehehe!" When Li Li heard this, he said without looking back: "Yes, tens of thousands of wild horses, how tempting!" Looking at Huan Fei's impatient appearance, as well as the army of the four barbarians gathering in the wasteland, you can know how great the temptation of this wild horse herd is! It's just that γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»hehehehe, the meat in your mouth is considered your own!" Teng Xiao, don't worry, it's too early to say who the wild horses will fall into. β
Li Li was stunned, then turned his head and said to Teng Xiao, Dian Wei, Teng Yu and other generals: "Our Wuwei army is a good hand when it comes to fighting on horseback, and its combat power is not inferior to any war horse, even if it is a head-on battle with the Pegasus thieves, we are not afraid of him!" However, the horse thieves are better at catching wild horses, let them go first, and when all the wild horses are caught, we will go and bring back the six thousand horses we lost! β
"Six thousand war horses? Lord, didn't we only lose more than 3,000 war horses? How do you γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ». Teng Yu exclaimed.
Li Li grinned gloomily and said, "What three thousand? I said that I lost 6,000 horses, that's 6,000! Alas, just now I didn't know that there were tens of thousands of wild horses, otherwise I would have said that I had lost 10,000 war horses. β
Sighing to himself, Li Li didn't pay attention to Teng Yu's stunned expression, and ordered sharply: "Teng Yu, you lead Long Xiangwei to fight the Xianbei cavalry, and Fan Yong leads the Flying Bear Battalion to fight the Xiaoyue Clan, and immediately divide the troops to attack." Remember, if the alien cavalry dismounts and surrenders, take them alive, and don't kill them all; Our Wuwei County is sparsely populated, so if we can, we can kill as little as possible, otherwise who will provide us with soldiers and horses, money and food! β
"No, my subordinates obey! Drive! β
The two commanders, Teng Yu and Fan Yong, immediately surrendered their orders, and immediately led their respective soldiers and horses away from the army and galloped towards the west and southwest. (To be continued)γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»
