Fortunately, Dong Ping reacted quickly enough, there were not many Liangshan cavalry troops, and there was a lot of space for them to evade, so they did not collide into a pile of enemies. However, the original sharp attack formation was also destroyed.
Dong Ping saw that Han Tao, who was just about to lead his cavalry to charge, also stopped, and couldn't help but secretly called him lucky. If Han Tao had seized the opportunity and led his cavalry to charge, the Liangshan cavalry would have suffered heavy losses.
Han Tao secretly said it was a fluke at this time. His infantry would not be able to form a formation for a while. If he hedged, once the Liangshan cavalry rushed to the infantry, I am afraid that the front army would be scattered. Therefore, it was expected that the Liangshan cavalry would release
After slowing down the horse speed, he also stopped the horse speed he had just raised.
The two armies stopped strangely within a mile of each other. The formations on both sides were in general chaos, and the generals on both sides secretly said they were lucky.
Han Tao asked his soldiers and horses to re-arrange themselves, reined up their horses, and went out to curse: "The heavenly soldiers are here, and they don't want to surrender early. They dare to resist, and they will die. Today I will fill up your lake, trample you to pieces in the Liangshan Mountains, and capture you alive."
I will capture your gang of rebels alive and cut them into thousands of pieces in the capital, and you will also make my name known as General Bai Sheng."
When Chao Gai heard that Han Tao was so arrogant, he couldn't help but said angrily: "Who will go out with me to capture this guy and show my majesty in Liangshan?"
When Luan Tingyu first came to Liangshan, he had not yet made any meritorious deeds. He had previously aspired to take the martial arts examination. Knowing that Han Tao was a martial arts examiner, he was determined to compete. After hearing this, he immediately said: "The last general invites you to fight."
"Okay, I think this guy has some martial arts skills, so don't be careless."
"Get the order"
Luan Tingyu rode out of the battle and captured Han Tao.
Han Tao didn't show any weakness and rushed forward to greet him.
Two horses carrying dust came whistling in a blink of an eye.
Immediately, the two generals also tried their best to give the opponent a decisive blow.
"Keng"
There was a loud noise, the weapons collided, and both of them swayed and passed by the wrong horse.
When you meet an opponent in chess, you will meet a good talent.
The two men turned their horses' heads, cheered up, and used all they had learned in their lives, both hoping to make meritorious deeds on the battlefield.
In just one cup of tea, the two of them had already fought for more than thirty years.
Luan Tingyu was determined to take the martial arts exam, practicing martial arts hard every day and exercising physically, while Han Tao passed the exam and was promoted to an official position.
The two may be equally skilled in martial arts, but Luan Tingyu has the upper hand in terms of physical strength. After more than thirty years of fighting together, Luan Tingyu becomes more courageous as he fights, while Han Tao is a little timid.
After barely holding on for a few more rounds, Han Tao pushed aside Luan Tingyu's iron rod, turned his horse's head and fled towards the main formation.
Luan Tingyu saw that Han Tao was about to run away, but did not chase him. He took off the hammer hanging from the saddle and hit Han Tao in the back.
"ah"
Han Tao didn't mind Luan Tingyu's flying hammer skills, so he was hit hard and fell off his horse with a scream.
At this time, the chief general of the Chinese Army, Hu Yanzhuo, had also received the news and arrived. Seeing that the vanguard general Han Tao was beaten off his horse, he hurriedly clapped his horse and danced with his whip to save Han Tao.
Luan Tingyu looked at the new general and saw that the military flag behind him read "Hu Yanzhuo, Commander of Runing County". Knowing that the general was coming, he was about to hit his horse and go forward to make a contribution.
Later, Dong Ping shouted: "Coach Luan, please rest a little. Watch me fight for 300 rounds before you take care of me."
While he was talking, Dong Ping had already danced his spears and headed straight for Hu Yanzhuo.
Hu Yanzhuo saw that the soldiers behind him had also rescued Han Tao, so he also danced his whip to fight Dong Ping.
The two men used short weapons. The two horses collided and started spinning in circles.
The two men used their spears against their whips, whipping them back and forth. For a moment, everyone watching was dazzled.
When the fight was over thirty, Hu Yanzhuo's rear army also arrived. Peng Qi, the Tianmu general, saw Dong Ping's double spears making him appear and disappear. Hu Yanzhuo seemed to have the power to parry, so he hurriedly came out of the formation and shouted: "General, take a rest for a moment. I'm sorry for these little thieves. Why bother?"
The generals will fight each other. In the end, the general will win or lose with him."
This Peng Qi is more than seven feet long, with a round face, big ears, wide lips and square mouth. He wears a cooked steel lion helmet with a big red tassel on the back of his head, and wears a pair of armor made of iron leaves, and a belt tied around his waist.
He wears a gold-plated animal mask girdle, and two bronze breastplates on the front and back; he wears a crimson flowered robe on the top, with two green velvet chin straps hanging from it; he wears slanted leather boots on the bottom, and holds a three-pointed four-orificed eight-pointed knife across his hand.
Huan Dao, five bright yellow horse flowers from a thousand miles below the crotch.
However, Hu Sanniang was so happy to see that another general was coming. She didn't even bother asking for a fight. She rode her horse out of the battle and shouted in a sweet voice: "You are so bold, let me catch you."
Peng Qi saw a beautiful general and couldn't help but laughed and said: "It turns out they are puddle bandits and thieves and women are in battle."
Seeing Peng Qi's rudeness, Hu Sanniang's pretty face turned cold, she danced with her sun and moon swords and chopped him off.
Peng Qi also waved a three-pointed two-edged sword to greet him. The two of them fought less than twenty times before Hu Sanniang separated her swords, returned to her horse and left.
"Where to go."
Peng Qi was intent on making a meritorious deed when he saw Hu Sanniang was about to leave. He yelled and chased after her.
When Hu Sanniang heard that Peng Qi was chasing him, she was also secretly happy. She hung her swords on the saddle and took out the red cotton lasso from under her shirt. When she heard the sound of Peng Qi's horse approaching, she turned around and threw the lasso into the air.
Most of the twenty-four golden hooks hook onto the leaves of Peng Qi's armor.
Seeing the lasso hooked into Peng Qi, Hu Sanniang squeezed the horse's belly with her legs, causing the horse to accelerate suddenly.
Peng Qi was caught off guard and was dragged off his horse.
Hu Sanniang hated him for being rude just now, but she did not slow down her horse and kept dragging Peng Qi back to her own formation. Peng Qi was already disgraced and disoriented.
Chao Gai looked at the captured prisoners and ordered two of his soldiers to dismount and tie up Peng Qi.
Hu Yanzhuo had already fought with Dong Ping for more than fifty years at this time. When he saw that Dong Ping could not win and Peng Qi was captured alive again, he couldn't help but became furious. He forced Dong Ping away with all his strength and rode towards the main formation.
Dong Ping chased his horse for a while, but when he saw that Hu Yanzhuo's horse was too fast to catch up, he stopped angrily and shouted: "Hu Yanzhuo can't be beaten with two whips. If you have the guts, come and fight me for a hundred rounds. Let's see if I can capture you."
.”
When Hu Yanzhuo heard that Dong Ping was provoking the general, he was also furious, but now that the deputy general was injured and captured, if he made another mistake, the army would be without command.
A snake cannot move without a head, and a bird cannot fly without wings. If this is true, all the three armies may be lost.
At that moment, I had no choice but to close my ears and turn my back on him, mobilize my troops and horses, and move forward to cover them up.
When Chao Gai saw that he had captured a general, and the officers and soldiers were coming again menacingly, he quickly ordered: "The whole army retreats."
Dong Ping saw that Hu Yanzhuo did not dare to fight with the general anymore, so he had no choice but to turn his horse's head and retreat to Liangshan.
Hu Yanzhuo chased for ten miles with his troops. Seeing that his army had spread out several miles, Chao Gai and his group were all horse soldiers and could not be chased. He was afraid of being ambushed, so he had to withdraw his troops and set up camp.
Chao Gai and others retreated to the edge of the water, where they were met by San Ruan's navy.
When the leaders went to the Juyi Hall, the law enforcement team members escorted Peng Qi in and asked Peng Qi to kneel down.
"No rudeness."
Chao Yong dismissed the sergeant, came down personally and untied Peng Qi's rope, cupped his hands and said: "The sergeant has offended me, general, please don't blame me."
Peng Qi hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Those who are captured should be killed. How can a general treat them with courtesy?"
Seeing Peng Qi talking like this, Chao Yong understood something in his heart and said with a smile: "Today, the powerful traitor Cai Jing is wielding power and instructing his minions to plunder the people everywhere. The minions from all over the country then dedicated the birth plan to Cai Jing to support his extravagant life. My father and
Several heroes could not bear the squandering of the common people's blood and sweat by Cai Jing, so they angrily robbed Cai Jing of his birthday, raised the banner of Dao for Heaven in Liangshan, killed corrupt officials, and saved the common people. Now the imperial court has sent generals to arrest them, and they should have suffered.
But I am afraid that the treacherous ministers will become more rampant from now on, and the people will not be able to survive, so I dare to offend the general's power, and I hope the general will forgive me."
Hearing this, Peng Qi knelt down on one knee facing Chao Gai and said: "Peng Qi has long heard that King Tuota was generous in helping people in need, and he did not want to be so heroic. If the King does not mind that Peng Qi's martial arts are low, he will ask the King to take him under his command and lead his horse into a stirrup.
.”
When Chao Gai saw that Peng Qi was willing to surrender, he came out to help Peng Qi up and said with a smile: "General Peng's words are serious. I'm glad that we have a hero in Liangshan. Come, let's have a banquet to celebrate."

That’s it for today. I’ve been sorting out the ranking of the generals’ combat power in Water Margin all day. I want to try my best to write this book according to the military power in Water Margin. However, the description of combat power in Water Margin is too messy and takes too much time. If you are interested, you can post your opinions.
