Chapter 1413: The Five Tiger Generals of Liangshan Battle Tantai Fame
Chapter 1413: The five tiger generals of Liangshan fight against Tantaiyu
The Battle of Xuzhou had just begun, and on the other side, after Li Jing defeated Zhu Tianpeng, he also received news of Huang Chao's death, so he immediately summoned the generals for discussion.
"Today's Qi country is in great chaos. Zhu Wen died after the failed coup, and Huang Chao also fell at this time.
Zhu Tianpeng has just succeeded to the throne, and the most important thing is to consolidate his position, so Qi is no longer able to attack Beihai, and we can use more troops to resist Yuan Shao."
Li Jing said with a smile, and all the generals also smiled.
Without the restraint of the Qi army, the Zhao army was able to deal with it naturally, and they also survived most of this crisis.
"Ran Min listened to the order and now orders you to lead five thousand troops and stay at the Erlongshan camp to prevent Zhu Tianpeng from attacking again."
"promise."
In the battle of Erlong Mountain, although Li Jing defeated Zhu Tianpeng cleanly, he also suffered more than 8,000 casualties, leaving only 15,000 troops out of 23,000.
In this battle, although Ran Min turned the tide and defeated the generals of the Qi army one after another, he also suffered serious injuries. Before his injuries healed, he was no longer suitable to participate in the battle.
Therefore, Li Jing asked Ran Min to lead the army to stay, while he himself took Lin Chong and the remaining 10,000 troops to go north to join Song Jiang to fight against Yuan Shao.
With the arrival of the army led by Li Jing, the battle situation in the north of Qingzhou also changed to 55,000 Qin and Liang coalition forces facing 70,000 Zhao troops. The military disadvantage was no longer that great.
Before Li Jing arrived, the two armies had already fought several times. However, Taishi Ci remembered Li Jing's instructions and before the South Route Army could repel the Qi Army, the North Route Army should focus on defense.
Therefore, although there was no major war between the two armies, there were countless private battles between generals, but overall the Zhao army had the advantage.
Zhao Jun has Tantaiyu, a god-of-war general, and Shajuanlian, a peak god general who can also be regarded as half a god of war. The combined combat power of these two great generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, is even inferior to those without a god of war.
Zhao Jun has at least two and a half gods of war on his face, while the Qin-Liang coalition only has one god-of-war master, Jin Tai, so the fighting general cannot be Zhao Jun's opponent.
However, Jintai is not an ordinary God of War general. Zhao Jun did not know how powerful Jintai was at the beginning, and because he underestimated Jintai's strength, he naturally suffered a small loss.
In the first battle, the Zhao army sent general Han Meng to challenge, while the Qin army sent Qin Huaiyu to fight. The two sides fought for thirty rounds without deciding the outcome.
Seeing that Han Meng could not defeat Qin Huaiyu, Shajuan Lian was worried that Han Meng would make a mistake, so he sent Yan Liang to help, but was blocked by Tai Shi Ci, and sent Wen Chou, but was stopped by Lu Junyi.
The generals of both sides fought fiercely, but the winner could not be determined for a long time. At this moment, Jintai took the initiative to ride his horse and came to challenge.
Shajuanlian saw that the general was a stranger and had no reputation, and his general Dong Cheng was eager to fight, so he ordered him to fight, but he did not want to be killed by Jintai in one round.
Although Dong Cheng is not very powerful, he has good interpersonal relationships among Zhao Jun and has a large number of good brothers.
When Generals Shen Ji, Geng Gongdong, Fang Qiong, and Bian Xiang saw their good brothers die in battle, they were furious and went to fight without permission, preparing to besiege Jintai with four strikes one against one.
Seeing this, Qin Ming rode his horse to stop Bian Xiang, while Jintai fought against the three generals alone, and in less than five rounds, he took all three generals off his horse.
The three generals Shen Ji, Geng Gongdong, and Fang Qiong were either super first-class or at the top of the first class. Together, the three of them could even compete with the divine generals, but they were killed by Jintai so easily.
Jintai had already demonstrated his strength with this move, and Shajuanhuan naturally knew that Jintai was not easy, so he immediately sent Tantai Yu, the strongest man in the army, to fight. The two fought for a hundred rounds without a winner.
While the two were fighting, Han Meng was defeated by Qin Huaiyu, and Yang Jiren took action to fight Qin Huaiyu;
Qin Ming lost to Bian Xiang, Hu Yanzhuo succeeded Qin Ming and fought against Bian Xiang.
Qin Huaiyu was too exhausted in the battle with Han Meng, so although he tried his best in the battle with Yang Jiren, he still lost to Yang Jiren after holding on for fifty rounds.
Qin Huaiyu was defeated, but Dong Ping rescued Qin Huaiyu with his spear and took his place in the battle against Yang Suiyu.
The two armies fought fiercely for a long time, and finally the winner was decided. Only the battle between Jintai and Tantaiyu continued. The two of them had fought for 300 rounds, but there was still no winner.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, it was not safe to fight at night, so the generals of both sides tacitly recalled him.
In the first battle between the two armies, the Zhao army lost four generals, while the coalition forces, or Liangshan, lost their general Shi Xiu.
But in general, Zhao Jun suffered greater losses.
When Li Jing arrived with his army, he naturally became the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces. Song Jiang was also willing to obey Li Jing's orders. However, Li Jing had just defeated the Qi army and was at the peak of his power.
After listening to Tai Shici's report, Li Jing immediately changed his previous passive strategy and began to take the initiative to confront Zhao Jun. However, he did not confront Zhao Jun head-on, but attacked the weak front line, hoping to force the opponent to either fight decisively or retreat.
After Zhao Jun's military advisor Tian Feng learned that Li Jing had arrived, he knew that this troop dispatch was doomed to fail. However, Yuan Shao did not agree to withdraw his troops, and the time was not conducive to a decisive battle, so Shajuanlian could only continue to lead the army to confront the coalition forces. And this confrontation lasted really three months.
During these three months, Shajuan Lian sent troops led by Tantai Yu to attack the coalition's grain roads, and the four generals responsible for guarding the grain roads were Lin Chong, Qin Ming, Dong Ping, and Hu Yanzhuo.
Lin Chong and other four people joined forces and inspired the Liangshan Five Tigers to use the "Five Tigers to Break the Enemy" combo, and they barely managed to tie with the God of War level Tantai Yu.
No one expected that four super-level generals could actually draw with Tantai Yu, who was at the level of the God of War. It should be noted that the God of War did not need a second move to kill the super-level generals, so this battle shocked the Qin, Zhao, and Liang armies.
Tantaiyu did not expect that these four people would be so difficult to deal with together, and he was afraid that Jintai would be among the enemy's reinforcements. After careful consideration, he decided to retreat, which allowed Lin Chong and other generals to save the food route.
What Tantaiyu didn't know was that if all the Five Tigers of Liangshan were there, he might not be his opponent yet, but the four-person version of the "Five Tigers Break the Enemy" could barely resist the God of War. As long as he persisted for ten rounds, Lin Chong and others would definitely Unable to hold on, it was a pity that he retreated on his own initiative.
In this battle that took place in the north of Qingzhou, apart from Lin Chong and the other four who drew with Tan Taiyu, the most praiseworthy and widely circulated battle was when Jin Tai nearly defeated Yan Liang and Wen Chou in a one-on-one battle. He was defeated, but with the addition of Han Meng, the battle ended in a draw.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou already have the combo skill "Tiger and Leopard Parallel", which can fight ordinary war-level warriors when triggered. However, Jintai is not an ordinary war god, so even if Yan Liang and Wen Chou join forces, they are still no match.
