Chapter 4096 The brave man has no fear of the cowardly heart
On the Xiangyang, under the sail on the mast and on the general platform, Liu Daogui was dressed like a soldier, standing with his arms folded. Beside him, more than ten personal guards held shields and raised them above their heads to protect him from possible attacks from the enemy.
Attack from high altitude, and the space in front of him was completely opened, which allowed him to clearly see the battle on the deck in front. However, in the current battle situation, he no longer had to consider the battle coming from the deck.
There is a threat ahead.
When Yanzhi also held a round shield and a long-handled sword in his right hand, he stood beside Liu Daogui. Watching Yingmingzhi turn his head to dive, he curled his lips in disdain: "Unexpectedly, among the demon thieves, they have always been
The wise man who is known for his fierceness is actually a coward."
Liu Daogui said calmly: "His reputation is just because he behaves like a wolf when he kills and kills prisoners of war or those who cannot resist. The more such a person is, the more timid and cowardly he is inside. If he
If you were truly brave and strong, you would not have abandoned your companions and fled for your life during the Battle of Yuzhou."
Yanzhi frowned slightly: "But if even senior disciples like Ying Mingzhi among the demon thieves are mostly cowards, how can they be so brave and fearless of death?"
Liu Daogui smiled slightly, pointed at the corpses of Tianshi Dao disciples all over the deck, and said: "These people are brave and fearless of death, but the wise ones are not. If they were the wise ones fifteen or twenty years ago, I believe they are not afraid of death."
Like these people, he will be brave and not afraid of death, but now he is more afraid of death than anyone else."
Yanzhi finally came to his senses and murmured: "That is to say, the ordinary villagers and fishermen who are new to Tianshi Dao will believe their preaching and think that they can really be invulnerable and become immortals after defeating soldiers.
I can really live forever, so I charge forward without fear. The demon thieves use these low-level believers to fight and kill, rush to the front line, and consume the power of our Jin army.
Awesome, right?"
Liu Daogui nodded: "That's not necessarily the case. The first wave of demon thieves to attack is often not these new disciples, but disciples who have been in the religion for a while and are good at martial arts. If they let people who are not good at martial arts and don't know how to fight,
If you rush to the front and kill everyone in one fell swoop, then the people behind you won’t believe in the idea of immortality, because they have been brainwashing people, saying that those who died were because of their dishonesty, but if
People who are not afraid of life and death go up there and all of them die in the end, so we can’t lie to people anymore with such nonsense.”
Yanzhi laughed: "So, let Ying Mingzhi take the lead and lead the other elite swordsman disciples together. Those elite disciples are probably at the level where they have survived many battles before, and they still believe this.
To put it bluntly, I feel that I have the protection of the Heavenly Master, and seeing that my companions or senior brothers are promoted to generals even if they are not dead, it also stimulates these people to continue to kill in the subsequent battles."
Liu Daogui said sternly: "Yes, but this kind of energy cannot last for more than five years. If you fight too many wars, even if you don't die, you will still be injured and in pain. The feeling of scars all over your body and heart and lung pain will make you feel...
They understand that there are no heavenly masters in this world, and everything is just lies. Because those fools are dead, there are only those positions left for them, not because they are stronger or the heavenly masters treat them better, but just because they are better.
It's just because they are luckier, that's all."
"A man like Ying Mingzhi was just a hundred-man captain and an unknown soldier during the Battle of Yuzhou, but now he is a senior general among demon thieves, commanding thousands of troops. He himself is also rich and glorious, with many wives and concubines.
Are you willing to fight for your life again?"
Yanzhi curled up his lips, pointed to the place where Yingmingzhi dived, and said: "But after all, he jumped off the ship himself to fight. This alone shows that he is not a complete coward. Just stay back."
Liu Daogui sneered: "Because he determined that our Xiangyang ship had a broken mast and could no longer fight. The people on the ship did not pose a threat to him, so he specially picked up this ship to jump. Look at other Huanglong warships.
, those who are fighting on the deck, why don’t they jump?”
Dao Yanzhi laughed: "After doing it for a long time, I still picked up the weak persimmons. Then after jumping up, I still huddled next to the gang of the boat, letting others get on, and I waited and watched. This guy's combat experience is really "rich"
Very good."
Liu Daogui put away his smile and said sternly: "Fortunately, the Xiangyang is the flagship and has prepared more ten-stone repeating crossbows and isinglass than other ships. Only then can we hold on to the deck. Other warships may not be so lucky. Now everyone
The boats are fighting and even blocking the advancing route of the boats behind them, which is not okay."
Yanzhi nodded, glanced around, and said: "Our Xiangyang was the first batch of warships to attack. In front of us was the Nanyang. They had already fought their way out, but we were stuck here because of the broken mast. Not only could we not
We escaped and blocked the following warships, but fortunately we have now eliminated the enemy troops who jumped on the deck. Now I am afraid that no one on the enemy's giant ship will dare to jump on board anymore, what should I do?"
Liu Daogui frowned: "The wise man will definitely find a way to retaliate after he escapes. He may bring in huge ballast rocks to attack our ship, so we must be quick and cut off the broken mast as soon as possible.
go out!"
Without saying a word, Yanzhi turned around and ran towards the broken mast at the back with a big knife in hand. This was a thick wooden pole four to five feet long, which was currently placed on the side of the third floor of the Tianshi.
On the boat, many soldiers have gathered on both sides of the boat, and they are shooting non-stop from a distance of four to five feet.
Behind Yanzhi, more than twenty warriors followed. What they held in their hands were not swords and crossbows, but jars, one in each hand. They ran over quickly, with the "swish" of crossbows and flying knives
"Woo!" the sound of breaking through the air was endless. From time to time, a sergeant fell to the ground after being hit by an arrow, and the altar jars also fell to the ground. However, the sergeant behind quickly picked up the jars that fell to the ground without breaking and continued to move forward.
Yanzhi's roar went all the way: "Cover, cover quickly!"
More than twenty sergeants holding bows and arrows threw away their weapons, picked up their shields, and ran with this small group of can-holding warriors. Even the guards on the general platform beside Liu Daogui jumped off the general platform.
, on the deck beside the ship, holding up the shield while guarding Yanzhi and others, they ran all the way, and soon they rushed to the edge of the broken mast.
