Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1101
Tang Jun's firearms are not cavalry who have never encountered the enemy.

When Li Qinzai's troops were in Cangyan City to rescue the boy named Quan, the deposed master, they encountered enemy cavalry. After the Tang army deployed calmly, the cavalry were wiped out before they even got close.

But Li Qinzai would never think that the soldiers under his command could easily deal with the cavalry raid.

The biggest advantage of the cavalry is their lightning-fast maneuverability. It is also against the enemy. Dealing with infantry is not the same concept as dealing with cavalry.

If the enemy's infantry was two hundred paces away, the Tang army's firearms could be fired calmly. After a few salvos, the formation of the enemy's infantry became chaotic, and few enemy troops could approach the Tang army's front line within fifty paces.

However, if the cavalry charged, the nature would be different.

Starting from two hundred steps away, he rushed to the front of the Tang army. How many times was the short distance enough for the Tang army's firearms to fire?
After three or four rounds of salvo at most, the cavalry rushed to the front and chopped down with their swords.

The enemy's cavalry outside Cangyan City can easily win because there are not many enemy cavalry. The charge of two or three thousand cavalry is not a big problem for the Tang army, and it is enough to wipe them out within fifty steps.

But this time, there were [-] cavalry. When the enemy rushed towards them, Tang Jun's firearms might not be effective.

That's why Li Qinzai's mood is so solemn. Not only him, but also Liu Renyuan and other generals are also under great pressure. They all know that this will be a fierce battle.

Liu Renyuan bluffed and bluffed in the formation. After the arrangements were made, he came to Li Qinzai wearing heavy armor.

"Li Shuai, the last generals are all set up. The enemy's forwards have suffered a great loss. The main force will surely arrive soon. The soldiers are ready to fight to the death." Liu Ren said willingly.

Li Qinzai nodded and said, "Has the messenger been sent?"

"Three groups of messengers have been sent out. If you hurry up, you will be able to arrive at General Qibi within a day to report the enemy's situation here."

Liu Renyuan paused for a moment, and said with a serious expression: "General Qibi will send reinforcements after receiving the army report, but the reinforcements will take another day at least, and the general is worried that we may not be able to hold our troops for two days... "

Li Qinzai sighed, and said: "Do your best and obey the destiny. This battle is related to the overall situation of the Eastern Expedition. If the enemy's troops take advantage of it, the Eastern Expedition may fall short."

"So we can only stick to it. It will not be easy for General Qibi. If Hunyi City is captured, only the capital of Goguryeo will be Pyongyang. The enemy will fight back desperately. General Qibi will face dozens of people in Pyongyang." Wan's garrison."

"The alien soldiers and horses that suddenly appeared here were not accidental, but a chess piece secretly laid by the enemy. We didn't notice it for a while, and fell into the dilemma of the enemy's north-south attack. If we want to break the situation, we must take this 2 soldiers and horses are forced to die here, and no one is allowed to go south!"

Liu Ren is willing to be awe-inspiring, so he should hold his fists together.

Li Qinzai sighed deeply, looked up at the sky, and the east was already pale.

The day is getting brighter, which means that the next battle will be more tragic. Cavalry night battles have always been a weakness. If there is sufficient light during the day, the Tang army will have to face the enemy with stronger combat power.

There was a rustling sound behind him, Li Qinzai turned his head and glanced, but saw Zheng Sanlang squatting on the ground, eating something.

A thick pancake filled with all kinds of dried meat and barbecue meat, rolled it hard, opened his mouth wide, and took a big bite, Zheng Sanlang immediately showed a comfortable expression.

Li Qinzai couldn't help being a little envious of this guy. He had to say that just watching him eat can make people's appetite soar. No wonder those eaters and broadcasters in the previous life made a lot of money.

With the fierce battle imminent, only this heartless guy is in the mood to eat so heartily.

"Sanlang..." Li Qinzai waved to him with a smile.

Zheng Sanlang was taken aback for a moment, swallowed the food in his mouth hard, and ran up to him.

"What are you doing?" Zheng Sanlang opened his mouth with honesty.

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "If you want to eat, eat quickly, the battle is about to begin."

"Yeah, don't worry Li Shuai, you won't miss anything," Zheng Sanlang patted the flagpole beside him, grinning and said, "The handsome flag will definitely not fall, even if you die."

Li Qinzai hesitated, and blurted out praise: "You really know how to chat."

Too lazy to argue with this idiot, Li Qinzai said again: "After eating, sharpen your Mo Dao well, the knife will chop on the enemy hard and fast, if the blade is blunt, it will take much effort to kill the enemy. "

Zheng Sanlang was startled, and then slapped his thigh suddenly: "Don't tell me, Shuai Li, I really forgot that I not only want to raise the flag, but also know how to wield a knife...I'm going to sharpen the knife!"

Li Qinzai sighed, becoming more pessimistic about this battle.

Half an hour later, the hillsides and dense forests around the plain were full of people, as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at the neatly formed Tang army.

Li Qinzai frowned. He knew that these figures were scouts from the enemy army approaching to investigate the reality of the Tang army.

Liu Renyuan also noticed it, and after cursing a few words bitterly, he ordered several teams of soldiers to lean forward.

Soon gunshots were heard from the hillside and dense forest, and there were screams.

Li Qinzai sat on the horse indifferently, and whether the enemy's scouts were killed or not was irrelevant.

All he needs to do is stick to it and stay still like a nail, Qibi Heli and Li Ji will not be in danger.

There is only one road leading to Huyi City from this place. Unless the enemy troops step on Li Qinzai's body, this place is an insurmountable moat for them.

Tang Jun still kept his formation, and even squatted on the ground to solve the meal.

After waiting quietly for an hour, a scout rushed over on horseback.

"Sailor Li, the enemy army has already set out. More than [-] cavalry have drawn up their camp ten miles away and are coming straight to our army. They will engage our army in an hour's time."

Li Qinzai grimaced, nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, let's check again!"

The scout clasped his fists and left again.

After a long silence, Li Qinzai suddenly said to Feng Su, "Give me a horizontal knife."

Feng Su was taken aback for a moment, and then blushed: "Wu Shaolang, as long as our Li family is here, I will never let Wu Shaolang hurt half of his hair!"

Li Qinzai said quietly: "What if you are not here anymore?"

Feng Su froze again, and pursed his lips sadly.

Li Qinzai sighed: "This is a fierce battle. Both you and I may die in the battle. If all the soldiers die in the battle and I am the only one left, I will still stand here, but I don't want to be unarmed at that time." .”

Feng Su's eyes turned red, he gritted his teeth and took off his horizontal knife, and handed it to Li Qinzai with both hands.

Feeling the weight of the horizontal knife in his hand, Li Qinzai sighed, and said with a wry smile: "I... I really haven't practiced at all. I hope, I won't have the chance to kill the enemy myself."

An hour later, Li Qinzai still felt the familiar ground shaking, and the gravel and gravel on the ground jumped slightly.

Li Qinzai narrowed his eyes and murmured: "Here we come..."

Liu Renyuan roared loudly at this time: "The whole army is preparing for battle, the shield formation is stepping forward! The front formation is ready to meet the enemy!"

Several miles away, the enemy's flag could be vaguely seen fluttering, followed by dense figures, like a dark cloud that could not be dispelled, sweeping in blackly.
