Chapter 81 Completely let go of your hands and feet and prepare for a big war
Chapter 81, The war lord who completely let go of his hands and feet and prepared to make a big fuss
Geng Gong took the simple lord's seal from Emperor Li's hand, turned the seal upside down, and after seeing the eight characters carved by Emperor Li himself, he raised his head and looked at Emperor Li in front of him with a smile, and said:
"You are very ambitious. It seems that the name I gave you is correct..."
After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, Geng Gong threw the lord's seal in his hand back to Emperor Li and said.
"Okay, you can choose the soldiers and generals in Shule City..."
After receiving the approval from his eldest brother Geng Gong, Li Di immediately said with joy:
"Then why don't we let my eldest brother be the first person?"
"Me? Let's forget it. If I leave, the soldiers and generals in Shule City and the family members left in my hometown may end up losing their lives. Tiger, you'd better find someone else...
…In addition, Tiger, as a sworn brother, I have a suggestion for you. I don’t care what you do in that foreign country, and I can’t control you!”
"But you'd better not be in the Central Plains and show your big seal casually. You should be glad that this is the border gate outside the Great Wall. Otherwise, with the privately engraved seal in your hand, you could fall into the Nine Clans.
The ending of annihilation..."
Ever since Emperor Li met Geng Gong from Shule City, it was rare for Emperor Li to see such a serious face of his eldest brother.
Unlike his elder brother Geng Gong who had a serious expression, Li Di, who was scolded by his elder brother, said with a playful smile:
"Brother, you are joking. How could I not understand these taboos? It is because you are my sworn brother that I would take out such a sensitive thing..."
After interrupting this sensitive topic with a joke, Li Di straightened his expression and attitude, and said to his eldest brother Geng Gong in a sincere and sincere tone:
"My little brother's foreign country's territory is currently in a desperate situation. If my eldest brother is willing to help me, the tiger will not treat me badly..."
However, as Emperor Li had guessed before, the probability of successfully recruiting Geng Gong was not high.
No matter whether the eldest brother Geng Gong is really so loyal to the big man or he has some scruples.
Anyway, regarding Li Di’s formal recruitment, the eldest brother Geng Gong kicked Li Di and took half a step back and said:
"Go away, with your meager skills and the huge territory of the foreign country Horn Gada, you still want to recruit your elder brother? What, is it possible that you, Tiger, still want to recruit your elder brother? Do you still want to?
Are you going to ask your eldest brother to kneel down and bow down to you three times and prostrate yourself as your vassal? Hurry up and get away quickly. If you dare to say anything, don't blame your eldest brother for killing your relatives and taking you down on the spot. In the name of rebellion, you will be executed on the spot...!
"
Li Di, who completely gave up the idea of recruiting Geng Gong, the famous general of the Han Dynasty in front of him, covered his stomach with one hand, pretending to be seriously injured, limped three steps and turned around with regret on his face, and couldn't help but look at the man behind him.
, once he exits the secret realm of this trial, he will worship his elder brother Geng Gong, the famous general of the Eastern Han Dynasty...
Phew~
The eldest brother Geng Gong, who was laughing at Li Di's mischief, forced himself to smile, picked up the pottery bowl next to him, and threw it at Li Di...
It was also from this day that Emperor Li began to use the battle treasure lord order to transform the people of Liyue among the more than 1,300 young and strong soldiers in Shule City.
Of course, with his eldest brother Geng Gong here, in order to show his respect for the soldiers and civilians in Shule City, Emperor Li's transformation of the people was completely based on the voluntary principle.
Therefore, there are people who negotiate the terms of treatment and agree on the spot, but there are also people who are unable or unwilling due to family concerns.
Simply put, not everyone has worries in their hearts, and not everyone has family responsibilities and needs to worry a lot.
Especially now, Shule City is facing the dilemma of being besieged by tens of thousands of Xiongnu troops, and the rice jars at home are dwindling.
Many families in Shule City, in order to find a way out for their only son, even took the initiative to find Emperor Li, hoping that he could accept their children...
So, one month after Emperor Li entered the secret trial realm, King Zuo Luli led the Xiongnu army southward, and Shule City was surrounded by tens of thousands of Xiongnu horsemen, cutting off the water source and attacking every day.
Emperor Li's daily job, in addition to being a weather forecaster, is to use the Lord's Order to convert the population in these trial secret realms into the citizens of Liyue Territory...
Facts have proved that the great aspirations that Emperor Li had made for his eldest brother Geng Gong were ultimately just flowers in the mist and the moon in the water, elusive and out of reach...
Even if Li Di continued to convert the people for a month without interruption, Li Di had made every effort, but he only recruited and converted thirty Han soldiers from Shule City...
Counting the fifty Liyue leaders brought by Emperor Li into the secret trial realm, we eliminated any auxiliary personnel who were not suitable to participate in the battle.
Emperor Li now has less than a hundred soldiers and generals who are commanded by the war lord system and whose battle talents have been enhanced.
And what Li Di told his eldest brother Geng Gong, the training method for troops to quickly reach the scale of a thousand cavalry, based on the Lord's Order in Li Di's hand, it would probably take three years to convert one quota per day...
However, even if Emperor Li was in this secret realm, he was destined to be unable to recruit thousands of cavalry men.
But after more than a month of Xiongnu siege, intense training and patience were cultivated.
There is the digital help of skills with a permanent certificate of the War Lord system, the strength enhancement brought by the skill zodiac, the enhancement of the foundation brought by the battle talent, and the learning acceleration brought by the teaching skills!
Even if he started from scratch, Emperor Li trained a total of eighty cavalrymen. Even if his eldest brother Geng Gong came to review them, they would still be called the Han cavalry with elite soldiers and strong generals!
As a result, after tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry attacked the city in a perfunctory manner every day for months, all kinds of survival materials in Shule City became increasingly scarce.
It was a preview of Shule City's second active counterattack. The gate of Shule City, which had been closed for a long time, was suddenly opened from inside the city under the gaze of tens of thousands of Xiongnu horsemen and the scorching sun shining from the southeastern sky.
A cavalry team of less than a hundred people, under the leadership of Emperor Li, rushed out of Shule City, which could not be broken no matter how many thousands of Xiongnu cavalry attacked!
Even including Emperor Li, there were only eighty-one cavalry troops, so openly and without fear, they charged towards the thousands of Xiongnu cavalry ahead who had taken precautions.
Li Di, who had worked hard to improve his riding and horse fighting skills to more than ten levels, rode on a carefully selected horse king with strong back muscles and smooth and delicate hair.
It was rare that Emperor Li replaced his usual weapon, a large three-sided spear with a wooden shaft.
What Emperor Li is holding now is a hard spear weighing about twenty kilograms and made entirely of iron, a silver-grade weapon, and a bloody moon needle (purple)!
[Blood Burial's Moon Needle] A long-handled weapon inserted in a pool of blood. The entire body is made of moon iron. With a little practice and mastery, it has extremely outstanding lethality.
[Silver level weapon: weapon attack 44, physical damage bonus 7.5%, energy needle (accelerates energy recovery speed by 20%, consumes energy to increase damage caused by attacks by 20%). 】
The enemies that civilian warriors face are mostly fellow warriors who are also proficient in martial arts, and they need to pay more attention to technical combat, unlike the red-tasseled spears that are commonly used with wooden poles and soft spears.
Warriors on the battlefield spend most of their fighting time in the unparalleled mowing mode of avoiding the strong and bullying, or in the fighting state of concentrating their forces to fight with more and less, and to crush the enemy with local strength.
Therefore, martial arts on the battlefield are more focused on simplicity and speed. Issues such as how to kill the enemy faster, how to kill the enemy with more energy saving, etc. have gradually become the mainstream of battlefield martial arts.
Therefore, warriors on the battlefield increasingly tend to use heavy weapons that will cripple them if they touch them, and kill them if they touch them.
Another effect of the gradual increase in the weight of weapons is that the armor worn by warriors on the battlefield is getting thicker and heavier. Therefore, in order to distinguish between civilian warriors and battlefield warriors.
These warriors who hold heavy weapons and wear armor, who often gallop on the battlefield, have a very suitable title for their identities, military commanders!
Because Shule City chose to shrink, it had to be subject to the barren loess Gobi, and was excluded from the thousands of Xiongnu cavalry who went south to plunder the Central Plains.
Seeing that Emperor Li's cavalry of less than a hundred people actually dared to go out of the city to fight against an enemy with a hundred times the number of cavalry in the clear sky.
Most of the Xiongnu Rangers looked overjoyed instead of surprised!
Especially among these thousands of horsemen, there are also some thorny, savage and reckless Hun horsemen with outstanding personalities.
Seeing Emperor Li's 81-horse cavalry approaching, they did not even wait for the order from the leader of the 10,000-strong Huns army behind him, and rode out of the Huns army without authorization, just like wild dogs out of their cages scrambling for food.
There was no organization, no formation, and they kept shouting and yelling. While arrows were scattered at Li Di and other cavalry, they were also quickly closing the distance between the two sides.
As a charging arrow, Emperor Li was mostly indifferent to the oncoming arrows.
Apart from blocking the arrows that hit the vital points of the face, there are no redundant defensive actions.
Most of Emperor Li's eighty-one cavalry were cavalry trained by infantrymen and militiamen who were good at fighting with spears and other long weapons.
Therefore, unlike the Xiongnu rangers who had always been on horseback since childhood and were good at riding and shooting, Emperor Li's eighty-one cavalry were actually close combat cavalry who specialized in breaking formations.
Moreover, these eighty-one melee cavalry can form several types of Qimen Dunjia formations.
And now in this head-on charge situation with a sharp arrow formation, there is no other battle formation that is more suitable than the four-level Three Strange Formation!
As one of the eighty-one cavalrymen, the four-fold and three-odd formation formed by him also has the life-linking and damage-sharing characteristics of the battle formation.
Not to mention the scattered arrows piercing the heads of the Huns in front of him, even in the face of the volley of thousands of Huns' cavalry, under the protection of Qimen Dunjia, Emperor Li still dared to charge head-on!
Due to the enhancement of Emperor Li's various combat talents and the increase in combat attributes, the eighty melee cavalry under him turned into a non-mainstream melee charge heavy cavalry with an armor penetration rate of less than 30%...
Dozens of Xiongnu knights who left the camp without authorization have never been seen like Emperor Li!
The melee cavalry, which numbered less than a hundred, could actually possess the speed and agility of the light cavalry, as well as the impact and defense of the heavy cavalry.
Facing Li Di's eighty-one cavalry who stepped into a stone's throw and accelerated their charge, these dozens of Huns stabbed their heads like mantises using their arms as bugs. They were smashed into pieces by Li Di leading the cavalry behind them.
Rushing past...
Just when Emperor Li led less than a hundred cavalry, like a hot knife cutting through butter, he ran head-on into the Xiongnu's army of thousands of cavalry.
On the other side, Geng Gong, who had led all the remaining Han soldiers in Shule City to sneak into the vicinity of the Xiongnu army early on, also led the soldiers behind him to kill from the side the thousands of Xiongnu cavalry who had been disrupted by Emperor Li...
Due to carelessness, the Huns' ten thousand people were unable to use their mobility as a ranger.
Facing the powerful cavalry of less than a hundred people led by Emperor Li, they rushed left and right among their own army, tearing apart the formation of the Xiongnu army wantonly and dividing the number of Xiongnu troops freely.
Geng Gong also led more than 1,200 Han infantry soldiers, and then killed them...
Even though the Xiongnu army consisted of ten thousand horsemen, in the face of Emperor Li and Geng Gong, these two sworn brothers had a tacit cooperation.
The defeat of the Xiongnu army was faster and faster than the last night attack that burned down the Xiongnu camp...
Of course, you don't have to worry about the safety of Geng Gong and other Han soldiers, and you don't have to worry about the Huns' property.
All you need to do is charge at will and give full play to the invincible war power of a war lord...
Emperor Li and the less than a hundred cavalry he led became invincible devil beasts in the eyes of the Xiongnu army...
