Chapter 124 Well, the battlefield is too dangerous!

On top of the city wall of Sanpingguan, Xiao Cheng stood with his sword in hand, looking straight ahead with a solemn look on his face.

In the sight that only he could see, all kinds of lights flashed one by one on the huge turntable.

After a moment, the turntable stopped, and a blue light jumped out.

[Blue training card, General Nirvana.

Card effect: After use, you will have the minister, Di Qing.

Card description: Born as Di Gong, assists saints and promotes loyalty. Love is righteous and strong, ambition is jealous and stubborn.

Di Qing, a famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty. He was born in a poor family and joined the army at a young age. He was known as "General Nirvana" because of his tattoos on his face and his ability to ride and shoot. With his military exploits, he moved to the Privy Council. He was later jealous and died of depression.

Force 91, Literature 63, Wisdom 82, Morality 87, Age 29, Dominance 95, Politics 58, Charisma 89, Loyalty 100, Ambition 58】

After Xiao Cheng saw the contents of the card clearly, his eyes lit up.

Ah, it’s Di Qing!

He came from a humble background, accumulated many military exploits, and was promoted to the Privy Council. As a military general, he was still in the Northern Song Dynasty, a dynasty where martial virtue was not very strong. He can be said to have exceeded the upper limit of his career.

Thinking of this, Xiao Cheng suddenly turned his head, looked at Ju Meng who was accompanying him, and said:

"Is there any regulation in our government that allows prisoners to be tattooed on their faces to serve in the military?"

Ju Meng, who was guarding the sword, heard this and replied with some confusion:

"Your Majesty, I have never heard of this punishment. The soldiers of our dynasty are highly respected and have the opportunity to make contributions. Over the years, there has never been a shortage of young men who have served in the army. And most of the people who have been sent to the barren southern border

land, so it will not be used in the army."

Speaking of which, Ju Meng added:

"I've only heard that some knights get tattoos on their bodies, either for prestige or to show their identity."

Xiao Cheng nodded and said:

"That's all, just a casual question."

If there was this punishment, Xiao Cheng would have it abolished immediately.

If criminals were mixed among the troops who defended the country, what good impression would the public have on them? It would also not be conducive to the reform of the military system that Xiao Cheng was about to embark on.

At this time, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded. A Yun Kingdom cavalry galloped into Sanping Pass.

"What's going on?" Xiao Cheng asked with a frown.

When the general accompanying Xiao Cheng heard Xiao Cheng speak, he immediately stood up and went to inquire.

After a while, the general came back, cupped his hands in front of Xiao Cheng and said:

"Your Majesty, please report on the horseback. The last cavalry unit that was with your Majesty was captured by the Xia army at a distance of forty miles east of Sanping Pass. The situation is critical and we have come here to ask for help."

When Xiao Cheng heard this, he laughed loudly and said proudly:

"Since they are soldiers trapped in the enemy's country to rescue me, how can I sit back and ignore them? Prepare my horses, I will go to pick them up myself!"

In fact, the soldiers of the border army who had seen Xiao Cheng display his power and invincibility on the battlefield would naturally not stop Xiao Cheng from going to the battlefield.

After hearing what Xiao Cheng said, all the generals' eyes were burning with excitement, and they could not hide the excitement on their faces, and they shouted in unison:

"I would like to accompany His Majesty!"

Following Xiao Cheng, looking invincible on the battlefield, and breaking through the enemy's formation. For the soldiers, nothing could make their blood boil more intensely than this.

Unable to be seen by others, several lines of small words appeared on the golden finger panel.

【……

Wearing the imperial card: Overlord of Western Chu - Xiang Yu (remaining time on the experience card: 2 hours and 37 minutes)

...]

I don’t know if I will be able to install the [West Chu Overlord] emperor card in this life based on my luck. If I don’t use it while the experience card is still valid, wouldn’t I be losing money?

But more than forty miles east of Sanping Pass, hundreds of Yun Kingdom cavalry were bitten by a Xia Army cavalry force.

In addition, there was a large group of Xia's cavalry in the distance. Under the command of the Xia army's commander, they separated into several groups and outflanked them from both wings.

On the road ahead, there were Xia Army infantry who arrived in advance, holding iron shields and spears like a forest, blocking the front of the Yun Army. Behind the army formation, there were Xia Army archers, bending their bows and arrows, aiming.

With Yunjun.

The Xia army's encirclement had been formed, and the long bugle sound of "Woo~" could be heard. The Xia army's cavalry, which had been holding on to the Yun army, suddenly slowed down and distanced themselves from the Yun army.

Only a muffled sound of "zheng" was heard. The Xia army's archers loosened their bow strings, and arrows rained down from the sky.

When the leading general of the Yun army saw this, he couldn't help shouting:

"Don't stop your horse, rush forward!"

There was a heavy rain of arrows, and they only wore light armor. There was no other way but to use their horses to rush out of the land covered by the rain of arrows!

But even though the leading general responded well, the Xia army's arrows rained down one after another, so densely that many cavalrymen were hit by arrows and rolled off their horses.

In just one salvo, dozens of cavalry were lost immediately.

The general of the Yun Army opened his eyes angrily, looking at the forest of spears waiting in front of him, but he suddenly gave a long shout, turned his horse's head, and charged towards the Xia Army cavalry surrounding him on the left.

This general of the Yun Army was a veteran on the battlefield after all. He knew that with only a few hundred cavalry, charging into the front line would lead to a dead end!

In such a situation, the only way is to change the direction and fight with the Xia cavalry on both sides, so as to avoid a frontal impact on the gun array and prevent the Xia army's archers from firing wantonly.

Hundreds of cavalry, led by the leading general, charged fiercely towards the Xia army on the left.

The Xia army on the left was caught off guard and was already approached by the Yun army.

At this time, the commander-in-chief of Xia Army frowned when he saw Yun Jun acting like this, and then waved his flag.

Immediately, several groups of cavalry rushed up and surrounded the Yun army, which was about to be destroyed.

"kill!"

At this moment, the sound of shouting for death suddenly echoed all around.

In the distance, Xiao Cheng was leading the way, his embroidered cloak fluttering in the wind and making a hunting sound. The golden lotus Zen staff in his hand was waving more and more skillfully, making it quite conspicuous from a distance.

Following closely behind were thousands of Yun Army's elite cavalry with high morale and high spirits, charging towards them with shouts of killing.

The aura of killing, accompanied by the deafening shouts of killing, surged towards the Xia army like a tide.

Among the Xia army, there were many soldiers who had been defeated at Sanpingguan and had been reorganized. Looking at Xiao Cheng's figure and the conspicuous Zen staff in his hand, these soldiers immediately trembled all over and pointed at Xiao Cheng's figure.

exclaimed:

"It's the ghost in the Yun Army!"

"It's him, it's really him."

"You can't fight him, retreat quickly!"

Before the two armies came into contact, some soldiers in Xia's army were unable to contain their fear and pushed them back to retreat.

By acting like this, even the Xia soldiers who had never seen Xiao Cheng's power could not help but be influenced by their companions, and their morale was weakened. Looking at the fierce murderous aura around Yun Jun, his heart trembled even more, and he subconsciously retreated.

The general of the Yun army who was trapped in the siege and was already waiting for death looked at the reinforcements that suddenly came from the distance, his eyes burst out with incomparable energy, and he shouted loudly:

"Reinforcements are coming, we are saved! Follow me and kill!"

The morale of the hundreds of Yun troops was suddenly boosted. They turned their horses and charged towards the Xia army's formation that was already in disintegration.

The general of the Xia army in the distance looked at the figure of Xiao Cheng leading the charge. The chilling aura surrounded his whole body, and the evil energy that reached the sky kept coming. The terrifying and invincible aura made him feel cold all of a sudden.

The description of Xiao Cheng from his colleagues who had escaped from Sanping Pass immediately came back to his mind.

Damn it, how could this fight be fought like this?

This Yunjun exudes an evil spirit from top to bottom!

The general weighed it again and again, but he really didn't want to sacrifice too many troops and horses for these hundreds of cavalry, so he immediately gritted his teeth and said:

"Order the army to get out of the way and retreat slowly! Don't worry about those Yun troops."

When the flag was waved, the cavalry troops immediately reacted and dispersed far away.

The infantry of the Xia army, who maintained their front line and faced Xiao Cheng's power, could not maintain their formation even under the urging of the general. They got out of the way and avoided confrontation, which directly turned into a rout and fled in all directions.

Hundreds of Yunjun cavalry galloped and finally joined the reinforcements. The leading general saw the face of Xiao Cheng who was leading the charge. He was stunned for a moment, then his eyes turned red, and he said with tears of gratitude:

"The general is incompetent, and His Majesty has come to rescue him personally. Even if he dies, he will never be able to atone for his sins!"

Xiao Chenglang laughed and said:

"Previously, you went deep into the enemy's country to help me. Today, when you are in danger, I will naturally come to pick you up. You are all good, and you have never lost the face of our soldiers in the Yun Kingdom. After you return, I will continue to work hard.

Reward you!"

Even though the hundreds of cavalrymen who had withdrawn did not recognize Xiao Cheng, they immediately understood when they saw the general's title. Their expressions were moved. They looked at Xiao Cheng with a look of reverence and excitement on his face and shouted in unison:

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Cheng stood up on his horse, with sharp eyes, looking at the chaos in the distance and the shrinking soldiers of Xia who did not dare to step forward, with the intention of continuing to charge and kill in his heart.

The thousands of Yun Kingdom cavalry who followed closely behind him also looked eager to try. They were waiting for Xiao Cheng's order and immediately charged towards the Xia army.

But at this moment, undetectable by others, the majestic golden figure behind Xiao Cheng suddenly paused, then turned into dots of golden light and dissipated in the air.

The experience card has expired!

Feeling the power dissipating rapidly in his body, Xiao Cheng smacked his lips with some reluctance.

Without the imperial card of [Overlord of Western Chu], he lost his unparalleled force. Xiao Cheng immediately reined in his horse and stopped taking half a step forward. At the same time, he immediately replaced it with the imperial card of [Dali Taizu] to ensure his own safety.

Well, it's really too dangerous on the battlefield!

Xiao Cheng took a moment to adjust his mentality, then straightened his body, pointed his hand at Xia Jun in front, and said proudly:

"Look at all the officers and men, the Xia army is such a waste, but they still dare to invade our territory. They really don't know whether to live or die! From now on, Sanping Pass is in the hands of our army, and the southwest areas of Xia Kingdom will still be controlled by our army! I'm back home today and have a good rest.

, after the repairs are completed, come back to me and turn the Xia Kingdom upside down, paying for it with blood!"

When Xiao Cheng spoke, he had already used his inner strength, and his voice clearly reached the ears of the Yunxia and Xia armies.

Suddenly, some of the Xia Army generals were livid and angry. Some were trembling all over and full of fear.

On the other hand, on the Yun Army side, the morale of the soldiers was even more high, and they shouted in unison:

"I sincerely obey your Majesty's orders and I will make sure that Xia's blood debt is repaid with blood!"

The Xia army on the opposite side heard the roar of the mountain coming from the opposite side. From the generals to the soldiers, everyone stood there in a daze, unable to react.

"That man is the Emperor of Yun Kingdom?"

"Looking at this posture, it seems so!"

"So, the Emperor of Yun Kingdom has always been in our Xia Kingdom?

"No wonder the commander-in-chief ordered that the Yun army pretending to be our army must be blocked in the country. It turns out that this is the reason..."

"Emperor Yun! The ability to capture the enemy's king is right before our eyes. Are we..."

"If you want to seek death, do it yourself! Haven't you heard the rumors in the army before? The Emperor of Yun Kingdom used brute force to break open the city gate when he broke through the Sanping Pass!"

"Hey, really or not, is this still a human being?"

General Xia Jun stared closely at Xiao Cheng's figure, couldn't help but hold the sword on his waist, and couldn't help but feel something in his heart.

If Xiao Cheng can be captured, it will be a huge achievement...

General Xia Army gritted his teeth and recalled the extremely terrifying aura he had just felt from Xiao Cheng. After all, he did not dare to give the order to take action.

At this time, the general of Xia Army was afraid that he would not be able to explain later, so he naturally did not dare to lead his troops to retreat. He could only stand there blankly, watching Xiao Cheng lead the Yun State army and slowly leave.

When Xiao Cheng led the army back to Sanping Pass, two figures hurriedly ran down the city wall.

"My lord, please pay homage to Your Majesty!"

Tao Ai, the old captain, and Shi An, the Zhendong general, hurriedly came up to greet them.

After the two saluted, they stood up.

Seeing Xiao Cheng wearing armor and being surrounded by generals, the old lieutenant couldn't hold back after all, and said bluntly:

"Your Majesty has a body of thousands of gold, but the battlefield is so dangerous that you really can't..."

Xiao Cheng got off his horse and quickly interrupted:

"What the old lieutenant said makes sense! Before, I had no choice but to go to the front line in person. But now, the frontier army has died, and the old lieutenant is sitting in charge. If I take risks again, I will really ignore the people of the government and the public!

So I have decided to leave for Beijing tomorrow and sit in the court."

Before the old lieutenant said anything, he was interrupted by Xiao Cheng. He opened his mouth, swallowed the words he had prepared, and looked at Xiao Cheng with a slightly confused look, as if he was wondering why his majesty suddenly

So cooperative.

Seeing this, Zhendong General Shi An, who was on the side, quickly bowed and said happily:

"It would be great for Your Majesty to be able to focus on the government and the opposition of Yun State! Now that Sanpingguan is in the hands of our army, the southwestern hinterland of Xia State can be invaded at will. Xia State's plan to annex our territory has been in vain. Your Majesty can also return home with peace of mind.

Chao is now in charge of the capital!"

When Xiao Cheng led the troops to go on an expedition, he, Shi An, was the one who was most worried and suffering.

After all, if something happens to Xiao Cheng, it will be a major matter for the safety of the Yun Kingdom!

He had to deal with military affairs and guard against the Xia State and the Li Dynasty, and he also had to bear the frightening consequences for Xiao.

Such suffering once made him frightened and his hair turned white. If it happened several more times, his life span would be shortened a lot.

Xiao Cheng raised his eyebrows, looked up in the direction of Zhongqing City, and smiled lightly.

When he regained power, he did not have enough power to completely control the court, so he showed great tolerance towards officials and Buddhists.

But now, he has gathered the hearts of the border troops and returned to the court with a great victory. He vowed to wipe out all the demons and monsters in the country and take all the power in his hands!
