Chapter 344 Nanyang Li's Young Man (two in one)(1/2)
Dian Wei leaped in the air and made a heavy blow. The iron shield in his hand was extremely sharp. He actually knocked Hu Chier's head into his neck... and even part of it went straight into his chest.
Hu Chi'er's heavenly spirit suffered such a heavy blow, and even her eyes were squeezed out by huge pressure in an instant, making a crisp "bang".
His brain was mixed with blood and flowed along his neck and throughout his body...
Hu Chi'er stood on the war horse with stiff body for a while, and then saw the terrifying body of death falling down along the horse's back and falling heavily into the dust.
All the soldiers of the Xiliang army following Hu Chier were stunned.
Then...
"The captain is dead!"
"The captain is dead!"
“…”
The soldiers of the Western Liang army closest to Hu Chier made panic screams, and the soldiers of the Western Liang army also began to show panic.
On the other hand, the soldiers of the Jingwu Soldiers changed their momentum because of Dian Wei's attack that was enough to resound throughout the four fields, and the morale of all the Jingwu Soldiers was unprecedentedly high.
"wind!"
"wind!"
"wind!"
The powerful roar of morale resounded throughout the four fields, shaking the three armies. The Jingwu soldiers were full of fighting spirit and went to fight against the Xiliang army regardless of their own worries.
"How dare you harm my lieutenant?" Qu Jun waited on the side and rushed towards Dian Wei, who was covered in blood. He raised the long sword in his hand and slashed hard at Dian Wei's side shoulder.
But unfortunately, Dian Wei is not fighting alone.
A battle knife blocked Hou Tong's way from the diagonal piercing. There was no doubt that it was Xu Dan!
Xu Dan is Xu Chu's younger brother and his right-hand man. His martial arts are naturally extraordinary. Although Hou Tong is also a warrior in Xiliang, he is not an opponent compared to Xu Dan.
What's more, Hu Chi'er died, and Hou Tong was greatly affected. Panic, anger, fear and fear filled his chest at this moment, causing him to be in a mess, and his skills were even more lost. It was impossible to effectively fight back against Xu Dan.
After Xu Dan and Hou Tong had fought for less than a few rounds, they saw Dian Wei rushing over from the slant. He roared angrily, punched him hard, and hit Xu Dan's standby with a punch.
The war horse was neighed by Xu Chu's blow, and fell directly to the side. Hou Tong on the horse's back was directly lifted out by the war horse, fell to the ground, and let out a painful cry.
Before Tong could get up from the ground, he saw Xu Dan had already killed him. He raised his sword in his hand and shouted with all his might. He hit Xu Dan's neck with a heavy blow!
Blood sputtered into the air. Hou Tong stared at the head with big eyes and separated from his body. He was ejected into the air by huge force, and then slowly fell from the air to the ground like a breathless ball.
When Wu Guan saw this, he was shocked.
He hurriedly turned his head and wanted to escape, but unfortunately, Xu Yi, another brave soldier of the Xu family, galloped behind Wu Guan. He roared angrily, slashed out with a knife, and directly chopped on Wu Guan's shoulder.
Wu cried out in pain, and she said to Xu Yi anxiously: "Don't hurt my life, I'm willing to surrender!"
But Xu Yi ignored him at all. He pulled out his sharp sword from Wu Guan's wound with force. The severe pain made Wu Guan yell in pain.
Wu Guan's painful shouting not only failed to make Xu Yi feel any sympathy for him, but on the contrary, it made Xu Yi's inherent bloodthirst and bloodthirsty feeling hidden in his bones even stronger.
He had a ferocious smile on his face, he roared, raised his hand again, waved it hard without hesitation, and cut half of Wu Guan's head down!
In just a moment, a captain and two Qu Junhous in the Xiliang Army died, and the command system was completely paralyzed, which made the Xiliang Army panic in a short while.
The Jingwushu took this great opportunity to speed up the offensive. They ruthlessly massacred the Xiliang Army, just because the Jingwushu was so motivated and had no more fighting spirit.
On the other hand, the Western Liang Army lost three leaders in a row, and the morale plummeted. The Liangzhou soldiers without the supreme command were like a mess, each acting on their own. The original combat power was only four or five points left.
Liu Qi, who was responsible for the fight in front of Dian Wei and others, also knew very well.
After the Jing Wushu from the front came to report to Liu Qi that the battle situation was very smooth, Liu Qi nodded calmly and said with satisfaction: "Tell Dian Jun that you must eliminate the bandits, but the speed does not need to be too fast, just fight steadily. As for the same sentence, there is no need to end the battle in a hurry. I just don't want to see the living words of the Xiliang Army."
"Jinwei!"
The Jingwu soldiers immediately received the order, bid farewell to Liu Qi and rushed to the front again.
Seeing that the big thing was settled, Liu Qi led his close-knit elites to search and explore the fort of Yin in the nearby alley.
Wherever you look, there are corpses everywhere and dead people everywhere. Every few dozen meters, you will see buildings engulfed by fires, and a naked tragedy on earth.
After about a while, Liu Qi shook his head with emotion, turned over and got off the horse and came to the steps at the door of a mansion, raised his armor, and then slowly sat down.
He thought about the current situation seriously for a while, and reached out to greet a Jingwuzhang guard near him.
"Mr., what are the instructions?" the soldier of the Jingwu soldiers asked Liu Qi respectfully.
Liu Qi reached out again to let the Jingwu soldiers approach a little, and said seriously: "I will order you to send thirty elite cavalry to the surrounding area to check which other prominent families are being attacked by the Xiliang army... After finding out, you will quickly return to report to me."
"Jinwei!"
After the soldiers in Jingzhou received the order, they turned around to arrange the matter.
Liu Qi just stood on his chin with both hands, quietly sitting there, thinking seriously about the situation in front of him.
Soon, Xu Yi strode towards Liu Qi. He was covered in blood and dirty, but his expression seemed energetic without any confusion or fatigue.
"Report to the Lord of the House, the rioters who committed crimes in the fort have been disbanded by our army! Dian Jun has led his troops to kill the remaining thieves in the fort, and will return later. Dian Jun is afraid that the Lord of the House and others are anxious, so he ordered his subordinates to come over in advance to report the situation of the battle to the Lord of the House and ask the Lord of the House to rest assured... We will definitely not leave any one."
Liu Qi said to Xu Yi with appreciation: "It's great. Just keep careful killing the riots in the dock with Mr. Dian, don't let anyone go. I don't need to worry about it. Mr. Liu is patient, you just do what you should do."
Xu Yi bowed and said, "I hope... I have another thing under my subordinates who need to report to you."
"What's the matter?"
"When Mo Li and others killed the Xiliang army just now, they snatched a prisoner from the other side's soldiers. They were a child, probably ten years old, but they were dressed in luxury and seemed not ordinary. Those who could be captured by the Xiliang army so special treatment must have some reasons. The subordinates dare not hide it, so they came to report to the Duke."
After Liu Qi just pondered for a moment, he said, "Bring that young man."
Xu Yi took the order and soon brought a young man with frozen blood on his face and red and swollen cheeks to Liu Qi.
The young man's mouth was bleeding and his hair was messy. He knew at a glance that the Xiliang army must have been tortured by the Xiliang army. However, for some reason, he was not killed. Instead, he stayed in the army for custody.
Although the young man was not old, he seemed quite brave. Even surrounded by a group of fierce Jingwu soldiers, he still had no cowardice and his expression was quite calm.
When he was brought to Liu Qi, he just looked at Liu Qi with some confusion.
"Who are you? Why are you wrapped in the army by those chaotic troops?" Liu Qi asked.
Unexpectedly, the young man did not answer the question and said strangely: "Who is Mr.? Why do you ask me?"
Liu Qi laughed when he heard this.
This kid is interesting.
"Don't be rude!"
Xu Yi next to him said with a gloomy face: "This one is Liu Fujun, the governor of Nanyang County. He leads the county army here to quell the rebellion. If the prince had not led it to this point, your life would have been gone long ago. I wouldn't thank you quickly!"
Although the boy was not a soft boy, he was not the kind of arrogant and unreasonable person. Judging from his dress and behavior, he was obviously well-educated.
When he heard Xu Yi signing for Liu Qi and stating the fact that he killed the Xiliang army, the young man hurriedly bowed and said gratefully: "The white-boy Li Yan pays homage to the Lord of the Mansion. Thank you for your kindness in saving you!"
Liu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Li Yan, a white-bodied man... Are you a member of the Li family in Nanyang County?"
"It's exactly the boy."
"No wonder, no wonder... The Li family is also a high-ranking clan in Nanyang County. The children educated are indeed different, but how did you get here? Isn't this the Yin family's fort?"
When Li Yan heard Liu Qi ask about this, his eyes couldn't help but turn red.
His tears seemed to be flowing downwards, but he still held it stubbornly.
Seeing the boy's appearance, Liu Qi felt a little admiration in his heart.
A native of the Li family in Nanyang, and his name is Li Yan, and he was able to control his emotions like this at a young age. I think it may be the one who was listed as the auxiliary minister of Shu Han with Zhuge Liang in history.
As a surrendered minister and an outsider from Yizhou, Li Yan could be a representative of the Dongzhou scholar in history and become a minister who was entrusted with the orphans with the same shoulders as Zhuge Liang. Naturally, he had his political level and ability, and was absolutely extraordinary.
Although Liu Bei's military achievements in history were not top, he was indeed second to none in political skills and talent identification, not inferior to Cao Cao.
"Li Yan, why are you in the Yin Family Fortress, and why are you captured alive by the Xiliang Army without death?"
Li Yan bit his lip and said, "Report to the Lord of the House, the owner of the Li family in Nanyang is located in the land of Nieyang. Among the previous generations in the family, there were also two thousand stone officials. However, when he was a grandfather, he had a great defeat in recent years and was no longer the same as before. In order to show his family business, he was vassal of the Yin family. When the clan entered the family, he also regularly handed over to the Yin family part every year to show his kindness. A few days ago, Yan Jun was ordered by the family family and came to the Yin family for respect with the wealth of the last year. The Yin family kept my father and son in the fort, and also had many hospitality... I don't want to think that the northern chaos troops who came from today, who actually broke through the fort, burned, killed, and plundered, and did everything he did. The Yin family and Yan Jun were both killed by the thieves. Before the victimization, Yan Jun hid me in the Yin family cellar and told me not to leave..."
After hearing this, Liu Qi suddenly realized it.
However, I really never thought that these wealthy families in this county would also have the routine of tribute to each other every year.
Among the aristocratic families, the survival rules of big fish eating small fish are also adhered to.
Liu Qi waved at Li Yan, then patted the steps beside him: "Li Yan, come and sit."
Li Yan pursed his lips, hesitated for a while, and finally moved to Liu Qi's side and sat down next to him.
Xu Yi stood beside Liu Qi, staring cautiously at the ten-year-old child, holding the hilt in his hand, and preventing him from making any moves.
"Since the Lord told you to hide it in the cellar, why would you fall into the hands of those rioters again?" Liu Qi said with a smile.
Li Yan's face showed a trace of determination and said, "The hatred of killing his father is irreconcilable! My father was in trouble to protect me. If I blindly retreated, what kind of face would I have to meet my ancestors in the future? Even if I fight to die today, I will be bound to assassinate the thief leader and be worthy of being a descendant of the Li family... Unfortunately, I have little ability, not only can I not be able to kill the thief, but I was captured alive by them."
Liu Qi nodded suddenly and said, "You kid, you are quite ambitious."
Suddenly, Li Yan stood up from the steps, bowed to Liu Qichang, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Fu, for avenging my father this bloody revenge. I, Li Yan... I cannot repay you in this life, and I am a cow or a horse, and I cannot repay you!"
At this moment, the ten-year-old boy finally couldn't control himself, burst into tears, knelt on his knees, and couldn't stand up to his benefactor who avenged him.
Liu Qi shook his head and said, "I just didn't want to plant willows, you don't have to."
To be continued...
