How can anyone not die in a war?

It has been agreed in advance that although this is a battle, the two sides will only treat it as actual combat. Anyone who suffers more than 30% of the battle damage will be killed!

It was the last moment, and the emperor suddenly stopped talking?

In a hurry, the two of them couldn't guess whether the emperor was really shocked by what Li Chengzhi played. Or did he see that Li Chengzhi was bound to lose and wanted to stir up trouble?

The two looked at each other, and then looked at Gao Zhao in unison, as if asking: Is it possible that Li Chengzhi really prepared such a powerful method that his majesty changed his face in shock?

Gao Zhao was both happy and angry.

Fortunately, Li Chengzhi will win, and Yuan Yi will be seriously injured. Otherwise, the emperor would not let Yuan Ji admit defeat.

What made him angry was that Li Chengzhi was even on guard against him: I fed my conscience to a dog?

Although he was cursing in his heart, it was hard to tell how angry Gao Zhao was.

Because Li Chengzhi is not only guarding against him, but also the emperor.

Otherwise, why did it wait until the last moment to give the emperor a secret message?

It was obviously because the emperor was worried that the tiger cavalry would be seriously injured, so he informed Yuan Yi in advance and leaked his trump card to Yuan Yi.

No wonder, after hearing that the emperor agreed to Yuan Yi's secondment of the Tiger Cavalry, Li Chengzhi didn't panic at all. Nor did he show any harshness or unfairness?

It turned out that he had already predicted that with just one memorial, he would be able to force the emperor to withdraw the Tiger Cavalry?

Thinking about it at this time, Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji almost lost their composure, and their behavior of adjusting the tiger cavalry to Yuan Yi was just like a joke?

Gao Zhao suddenly became happy...

I have to say that the only person who knew the emperor best was Gao Zhao, and Yuan Ke was really prepared to do this.

First, he secretly scolded Li Chengzhi several times for being a rebellious minister, which seemed to make no sense. Then the emperor scolded Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji again.

You still have the nerve to look at Gao Zhao, are you looking at me like a bird?

If I didn't want to see how capable Li Chengzhi was and how he would deal with the most powerful armored tiger cavalry in the world, why would I lend the tiger cavalry belonging to the Central Army of the Ministry of War to the Wei Mansion?

?

Although Gao Zhao didn't say anything, I'm afraid he was filled with resentment in his heart, secretly hating how unfair I was to him.

It's ridiculous that these two idiots dared to speak so loudly before: The two armies are facing each other, each relying on his ability. All means can be used. Whether it is life or death, everyone has their destiny... Why don't you open your eyes and see what kind of soldiers Yuan Yi is leading?

,What kind of troops did Li Chengzhi lead?

Even if you think about it, you can't imagine how sharp and vicious Li Chengzhi's methods are. Not only are they planning to swollen the faces of you two idiots, but they also want to pin them to the ground and stomp on them.

I have made it clear, but you are still stubborn and dare to hold your neck and shout "dissatisfied" at me?

Okay, I will let you take it well...

The emperor's face turned cold, he grabbed the piece of paper in his hand and clenched it into a ball.

"Liu Teng!"

"I'm here!"

"Go in person and pass on my message to the two of them: Tiger cavalry is a weapon to control the country, how can it be wasted in a fight? Order them to withdraw immediately, and then order Li Chengzhi to withdraw half of his troops. The two of them will each lead five hundred, and the battle will begin immediately.

..."

After pondering for a while, he heard the emperor shout: "Another message to Yuan Yi: Li Chengzhi has prepared a poisonous fire that can burn through the iron armor and cannot be extinguished by pouring water. If he thinks he has no solution, he should admit defeat as soon as possible to avoid wasting the lives of his soldiers."

..."

Yu Zhong and Yuan Ji's faces suddenly turned pale: Li Chengzhi really has powerful means, or is he a poisonous fire that can burn through iron armor and cannot be extinguished by pouring water? His Majesty is so frightened that he even wants to retreat from the tiger cavalry?<

/p>

As a result, Yuan Yi's chances of winning have been reduced by more than half?

There was a "buzz", like a hornet's nest being poked, and there was a sudden gasp of cold air all over the city.

Real or fake?

There are some strange things in the world that are simply unheard of?

In surprise, nine of the ten courtiers turned their heads and subconsciously looked at the city.

Li Chengzhi's nearly a thousand soldiers were still digging the ditch, which was already quite deep. Only scattered soil and wet mud were lifted up the ditch bank, but no one could be seen. It was already quite long, about a hundred feet long, half a month long.

Thousands of horses and dozens of vehicles drove behind them.

Among them were the dozens of carriages with tarpaulins uncovered. If there was really poisonous fire, it must have been hidden in the carriages...

Yuan Ji was mumbling in his sleep, his voice almost inaudible: "I... don't believe it..."

Don’t blame him for not believing it: it’s enough to burn through the iron armor. How can fire be immortal when it meets water?

When the yin and yang and the five elements have existed for thousands of years, the principle of mutual generation and mutual restraint is just a decoration?

It's the same as when people in later generations suddenly heard someone say "a sow can climb a tree"...

He originally told Yu Zhong, but the emperor heard it. Yuan Ke sneered and said, "But I believe it!"

……

Li Chengzhi smiled with a smile on his face: "I'm sorry to trouble you, sir, but I would like to thank your majesty for your Majesty: Thank you for your consideration of your humble ministers..."

Liu Teng stared at him sideways for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

Is that because His Majesty is sympathetic to you?

It's obvious that you have so many tricks up your sleeves that you dared to keep His Majesty in the dark. His Majesty was worried that the tiger cavalry would be damaged, so he had to withdraw it.

No wonder you knew that His Majesty turned his elbow toward Yuan Yi and seconded the Tiger Cavalry to Yuan Yi, but you didn't even complain at all. So you were waiting here?

"Li Chengzhi, you are really capable, but you can't even..."

He was originally going to say, "Even His Majesty dares to tease you," but when the words came to his lips, he felt disrespectful. Liu Teng simply stopped and just gave him two false taps with his fingers.

"Your Majesty has ordered Yuan Yi to withdraw the Tiger Cavalry. Don't be too obedient to get an advantage. It is only right to withdraw half of the troops immediately. Otherwise, even if you win, you will be sentenced to lose in the end..."

Li Chengzhi continued to smile: "Don't worry, Sir, this is natural!"

Before leaving, Liu Teng seemed to have remembered something again. He stopped and looked at Li Chengzhi. Although his tone was casual, his expression was rare and solemn:

"As people get older, they tend to talk more. Don't mind if I am noisy: I think it's better for you to just let it go..."

You damn eunuch, when did our relationship become so close?

His expression is so solemn... This is clearly what the emperor means...

Although he still replied "Don't worry, sir", Li Chengzhi raised his hand towards the city wall. Liu Teng understood immediately and knew that Li Chengzhi understood the hidden meaning. Without further words, he urged his horse to walk towards Yuan Yi's military formation.<

/p>

Seeing Liu Teng walking away, Li Liang came up to him and said with great admiration: "Lang Jun is really a mastermind. Did the emperor really withdraw the tiger cavalry?"

Li Chengzhi laughed out loud: "You really dare to praise me. Is this common sense?"

He licked his lips and looked at the hundreds of soldiers sitting on horses in the distance, his eyes gleaming: "Do you know how many Dingkou there are in the whole Wei Dynasty? There are 30 million people not counting the hermit households. And the tiger cavalry is only

How many? Ten thousand...

This could not be found among the Han and Xianbei people, and it was only gathered together by selecting many from the surrendered Gaoche, Xiongnu, Dingling, Rouran, Lushuihu and other miscellaneous tribes.

As for such a powerful soldier who is nearly seven feet tall (Wei Chi is 29 centimeters) and can carry a hundred kilograms of armor, he is only one of a thousand even among the tiger cavalry... It can be seen that one in ten thousand is not enough to describe him.

Don't say that the emperor is as brazen as before, so what if he loses 30% of his troops. If he loses even one of his men, he will be heartbroken to death. To put it bluntly: Yuan Yi is dead, what does it have to do with the emperor? But if the tiger cavalry dies, what can he do?

Really dead...

Suddenly I heard that your husband and I really had the means to injure the tiger cavalry. The emperor was suspicious in his heart and did not dare to take the gamble. How could he not withdraw them all? So I never thought from the beginning to the end that we would be against the tiger cavalry.

...There is always a way to get the emperor to take back his life...

If you still don’t understand, just think about it, how many such fierce soldiers do we have? If only one of us dies, I’m afraid I’ll have to fight to the death with others?”

How many do we have?

Li Liang really did the math: Li Song, Li Zhang, Li Xian, plus Huangfu Rang... it’s not even a slap?

Just as he was horrified, he heard Li Chengzhi say: "The emperor asked us to withdraw half of the soldiers, so we will withdraw. Anyway, the ditch is almost dug, and the soldiers can take a rest... Well, remember to withdraw the part every

How many kilograms of meat do people share..."

Li Chengzhi specifically chose a place with dense forests and luxuriant grass and soft soil. He had enough manpower and handy tools. In less than an hour, he dug a ditch nearly a hundred feet long and one foot wide.

It looked like it was a foot deep, but in fact it only dug down to less than four feet. The outer six feet were all piled up with excavated wet soil.

The long ditch is in the shape of a semicircle, with mountains and forests behind it to protect soldiers, horses, chariots, etc. There is only a channel about ten feet wide in the middle for cavalry to enter and exit. If the enemy attacks, they will use chariots.

Block it.

At this time, there was water at the bottom of the ditch. It would be more laborious and unnecessary to dig deeper. I dare not say that it is impregnable, but Li Chengzhi thinks that it is more than enough to defend against Yuan Yi.

Li Liang responded with a solemn voice and ordered Li Rui to give the order. Hundreds of soldiers climbed onto the ditch bank. After listening to Li Cong's shouts several times, dozens of fire-headed soldiers brought big baskets and water jars to the soldiers.

Eating with enthusiasm.

There is enough meat pie and broth, and in addition, each person also has a bowl of water and wine.
