Xiaoqi

Xi Yuyu!

At the moment when Yang Ding flew up with joy, a sudden change occurred.But Duan Yan, who was swaying, suddenly lifted the reins, causing the black fat horse under his crotch to neigh suddenly, his front hoofs flew up, the horse's body rose sharply, and the horse's head was raised more than two feet high.As the horseman stood up, Duan Yan, who was sitting high on the horse's back, flipped the three-pronged two-edged sword and danced in the air. The sword quickly spun into a semicircle in the air, condescending with great force, and slashed head-on. Yang Ding who jumped forward.

Sudden upheaval, Yang Ding was horrified, and raised his spear with his physical instinct to meet the imminent sword.

"clang!"

"what"

Amidst a loud noise, Yang Ding, whose body was flying into the air, was instantly thrown away by Duan Yan's ferocious knife.The moment Yang Ding let go of the spear, Yang Ding's hands cracked, and the huge shock force suddenly poured into his chest along his arms. A bloody smell hit his throat, and blood came out of his mouth.Immediately, he vomited blood violently, screamed uncontrollably, and his vacated body rolled and fell like autumn leaves.

"Oh!"

Amidst the dull falling sound, Yang Ding hit the ground heavily, and immediately there was another horrific scream of pain.Then, he slumped on the grass more than ten steps away from Duan Yao's mount, mourning in a low voice, already a lamb waiting to be slaughtered without any resistance.

"Where is Dian Wei, fight against Duan Yao!"

Just as Yang Ding's scream fell to the ground, Li Li, who was in front of the horse formation, suddenly yelled.

Before he finished speaking, Dian Wei, who had reined in his horse and stopped behind him, moved when he heard the sound, and the sweaty horse galloped out like an arrow off the string.The lightning-fast figure galloped past like a flying train, and the battlefield in front of the formation, which was less than two hundred steps away, arrived in the blink of an eye under the hoofs of chasing wind and sweaty horses.

"Duan Yanxiu is going crazy, a certain Dian Wei is here!"

Just as Duan Yan was trying to kill Yang Ding, Dian Wei, galloping his horse, let out a loud roar, then pulled out a three-foot halberd from the leather pouch tied to the horse's belly, and threw it at Duan Yao.

"Chong!"

"A despicable person who hurts people with a hidden weapon dares to yell in front of me, Duan Yan!"

Hearing the sound of horseshoes behind him, Duan Yan knew that the Wuwei Army had another general to fight.Immediately, he pretended to ride his horse to kill Yang Ding, trying to force the enemy general to come to rescue, so as to attack him unprepared and win another round. In this way, he won three battles in a row, and could retreat back to the army formation in style.Unexpectedly, the general of the Wuwei Army who played this time actually projected a hidden weapon, causing his tactic of attacking and saving him to be shattered in an instant.

"Clang, clang!"

"Boom!"

Turning around and hitting the horse, Duan Yan held the three-pronged two-edged saber firmly to catch Dian Wei's galloping halberds.At the first blow, Duan Yan's stern expression changed in shock, his cheeks flushed instantly, and the jaws of his hands were shattered, blood oozing out.Swinging a knife to block the two halberds, Duan Yan and his horse Shengsheng were shocked back seven steps by the huge force on Dianwei's double halberds, his arms trembled as if struck by lightning, and a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

"Dian Wei? Could it be that you are the 'Ancient Evil Come' Dian Wei who fought against Lily with Lu Bu!"

While reining in his horse and retreating, Duan Yan ignored the blood dripping on his hand, stared at Dian Wei who reined in his horse and raised his halberd, and asked in surprise.

"That's right, a certain family is Chen Liudianwei! You are the Zhonglang General Duan Yan stationed in Huayin. My lord mentioned you just now, saying that you are highly skilled in martial arts, and you are well hidden. Now it seems that what the lord said is true. Your Martial arts are really good. Your method of defeating Wen Yuan was quite weird before, but it was indeed your long-planned one-shot victory to hit Yang Ding severely. Now you can let it go. If you can survive a hundred rounds under Dian's hands , even if you win! Do you have the guts to fight a certain one?" Facing Duan Yan's question, Dian Wei stood on his horse and did not take advantage of the situation to continue attacking, and said in a deep voice.

"Huh!" Duan Yan stared at the words, and snorted coldly with disdain on his face: "General Dian is so loud, do you think you can scare someone Duan by declaring his name? For the rest of the year, I have gone through countless battles and have never been timid. Today, Duan and General Dian have a duel, and it is also a hundred rounds. If Duan cannot win, then you, Dian Wei, have won!"

"Hahaha!" Dian Wei narrowed his tiger eyes slightly, and laughed loudly: "General Duan is so courageous and courageous! But General Duan thinks too much of your own martial arts, no wonder Dian looks down on you, because of martial arts alone In other words, you are no match for me. Although the skill of the top fighter in the early stage of the middle stage is strong, but in the eyes of Dian, it is still too weak, and a hundred rounds is already giving you a lot of face!"

"Really, General Dian is so confident?" Duan Yan's expression suddenly changed, his eyelids twitched violently, and he pondered.

A cold light flashed in Dian Wei's eyes, he looked directly at Duan Yao, and said in a deep voice, "In front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the two armies, Dian put his words here. If you can survive under my double halberds After one hundred rounds, Dian was willing to admit defeat, and immediately returned to the battle. From then on, wherever you appeared, Dian would stay away and take a detour! On the other hand, if you can't last a hundred rounds, Dian will not kill you. You, but you must surrender to my lord. How about it, do you dare to make a war agreement with a certain person, and win or lose in one battle?"

"Uh, this,,,,,, is it too child's play?" Duan Yan muttered in amazement.

"Oh?" Dian Wei raised his eyebrows when he heard the words, squinted his eyes at Duan Yan, and asked in a deep voice: "Could it be that General Duan is afraid to fight and is worried that if he loses, he will be inferior to Dian in this life? On this point, you And don't worry, my lord has always been very clear about rewards and punishments. As long as you don't betray the lord and ask for glory, and obey the lord's orders, if you have enough military exploits, my lord will naturally give you the official position and wealth you deserve!"

Chapter 298

In front of the Wuwei army.

Seeing that Dian Wei took the initiative to gamble with Duan Yan before the battle, Jia Xu had a strange expression on his face, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, he approached Li Li sideways, and said with a soft smile: "Unexpectedly, Commander Dian Wei is actually a man with fine details, and he actually gambled with Duan Yan before the formation, and this contract seems a bit unfair! Duan Wei is defeated! If the Commander Dian loses, he will go back to the battle. Jia has only seen such a bet in his life. Commander Dian is really a brave man with amazing skills! Hehehe"

After Li Li heard the words, a habitual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pondered: "How can there be fairness in the battle before the battle? If both sides must be equal in everything, why make a bet? Since it is a bet, it is natural to be strong." The one who made an agreement, the weak one must either accept the contract to fight, or be defeated and die. Dian Wei's martial arts is obviously superior to Duan Wei's, so he can make a war contract in a grand manner, and the bet is that Duan Wei is lucky and arrogant. Ao, unwilling to lose. Dian Wei found the right person this time, facing Duan Yan, who was born in the general family, and he proposed such an unequal bet, Duan Wei will definitely agree to the bet and face it head-on!"

"Hehehe!" Jia Xu echoed with a chuckle: "It's still the lord who sees clearly, and can see through the arrogance hidden in Duan Yan's bones at a glance. As the lord said, Duan Yan has a very high spirit, and he has always relied on himself as the leader of the door." , is also the brother of Duan Ying, the Taiwei of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Before that, he had deliberately kept a distance from many Xiliang generals. The reputation of a famous general. It's a pity that he has long been a general under Dong Xiangguo's command. This is an undeniable fact. In the previous imperial court's most wanted edict, his name Duan Yan was listed. The edict forced him to follow Li Jue The general led the troops to counterattack Chang'an, otherwise his own life would be in danger. However, his heart is still towards the court. He still thinks that his Duan family is the family of famous generals in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and they are guarding the honor of the family. This point needs to be carefully considered by the lord, so as not to cause trouble in the future .”

"Well, what Wen He said is good." Li Li thought for a while, nodded and said, "The way to control the subordinates is to not doubt the person who is in charge, and not to use the person who is suspicious. In our place in Xiliang, the north, west and southwest are entrenched. There are a large number of barbarians of different races, and these border areas require a large number of soldiers to be stationed. Otherwise, the border will not be stable, and we will never live in peace. Duan Wei is one of the rare generals in Xiliang who is both civil and military. It would be a pity to abandon it. Since His heart is towards Liu's country, and the counties and counties around Chang'an City are obviously not suitable for him to display his skills. Maybe the border guards are the place he should go."

After Jia Xu heard the words, his eyes flashed.But in my heart I was horrified.Just now he was just doing it out of his duty as a servant.Only then did he advise Li Li to beware of Duan Yan, so as not to leave future troubles.Unexpectedly, Li Li seemed to have made up his mind a long time ago, and as soon as he said it casually, he dispatched Duan Yan to the border.Li Li's decisive and long-term plan really shocked Jia Xu's heart, and he couldn't help trying to figure out Li Li's thoughts.And his attitude towards the emperor and Liu's clan in the future.

However, Li Li's arrangement is obviously in line with what Jia Xu thinks in his heart, it just coincides with each other.And Li Li expressed his heart so bluntly, obviously he wanted to hand over the offending job to Jia Xu.When it came time to arrange the positions of the generals, he must be the one who recommended Duan Yan to guard the border.

After sorting out her thoughts a little bit, Jia Xu has no complaints about it.After all, there are some things that must be done by someone, especially the things that the Lord cannot speak out in public, so the subordinates have to submit to their work.

In front of the two armies.

Dian Wei's words angered Duan Yao, squinting his eyes and loudly asking Duan Yan if he dared to accept the contract to gamble.

But Duan Yan's psychology at this time was just as Li Li and Jia Xu expected.

Facing Dian Wei's war contract and provocation, Duan Yan looked a little hesitant, but extremely unwilling.He came from a famous family, and the Duan family was very favored by the emperor, and his elder brother Duan Ying was the Taiwei of the Eastern Han Dynasty more than ten years ago. Yan, I feel superior to others.It's a pity that the Duan family didn't have a good time for a long time. After Duan Ying was framed by a traitor, the Duan family was affected, and then the whole family plummeted.During these years in the Xiliang army, he didn't want to get along with all the generals of Xiliang, and he also treated Dong Zhuo with aloofness, secretly accumulating strength, hoping to restore the former glory of the Duan family.It's just that Dong Zhuo bestowed him the position of Zhonglang General, but he was not Dong Zhuo's confidant, and he couldn't hold a heavy army like Li Jue and Guo Si.However, he looked down on Li Guo and Li Guo in his bones, thinking that they were born in green forests and reckless, did not understand court etiquette at all, and were pure reckless men who got their ambitions and were just heroes for a while.

However, when Dong Zhuo died, the situation of the whole world changed dramatically.Li Jue and Guo Si became the commanders of the Xiliang Army in a blink of an eye, and Wuwei Li Li took advantage of the situation and swept over [-]% of the troops left by Dong Zhuo, becoming another powerful force not inferior to Li and Guo.

On the other hand, his pretentious Duan Yan can only be subservient to Li and Guo, and is at his disposal.And Wuwei Li Li, who was once regarded by him as a concubine with a yellow mouth, has rapidly grown into an existence that Duan Yan looks up to. He brazenly confronts Li and Guo two people, vying for the ownership of Chang'an and the power of the world.

In fact, Duan Yan looked down on Li Jue and Li Li's uncle and nephew from the bottom of his heart.Because this pair of uncles and nephews, when it comes to root, are only from a good family, far inferior to Duan Yao's distinguished background, literary talent and military strategy.

However, things get tricky.Pretentiousness is just futile, reality is stronger than people.

The cruel reality forces Duan Yan to take orders from Li Jue, and to behave carefully with his tail between his legs. If he is not careful, he will be annexed by Li and Guo, leaving him with nothing.And the strength possessed by Wuwei Li Li is beyond his reach, and he marvels.Moreover, he also knew that not only was he, Duan Yan, inferior to Wuwei Li Li, but Li and Guo were also very afraid of Li Li and his Wuwei army.Half a month ago, Li Li sent a batch of food and salaries, and also ordered the Xiliang Army to strictly enforce military discipline and not harass the people. As a result, Li and Guo strictly followed Li Li's order, making Xiliang, which has always been lax in military discipline. In the army, the atmosphere is upright.At that time, Duan Yan felt stunned, seeing for the first time the great power of Li Li in Wuwei, with a command, he was able to force arrogant people like Li Jue and Guo Si to bow their heads and obey orders.

In addition, Duan Yan also knew that the Wuwei Army was powerful, and Li Li had hundreds of generals, and dozens of generals who could be named.In the Battle of Bahe, Lu Bu and the wolf cavalry army, who were all over the world, suffered a disastrous defeat, which made Li Li and his Wuwei army famous all over the world, and shocked the entire Xiliang.

Now that the two armies are facing off against each other, the unknown native of Talu captured Guo Si alive in the first battle, which caused the morale of the Xiliang army to drop and the morale of the army was shaken.But after Duan Yan went to the battle, he won two battles in a row, defeating Zhang Liao and Yang Ding successively.If he can continue this impressive record, after this battle, he is expected to replace Guo Bang's position in the army and further strengthen his own strength.Given time, he is likely to replace Li Jue, take charge of the Xiliang Army, return the government to the Son of Heaven, take the position of the Sangong, revitalize the Duan family, and restore the former glory.

The ideal is lofty, but the reality is embarrassing.

Now facing Dian Wei, Duan Yan felt a little guilty.Just based on the first fight just now, he has a strong sense of crisis lingering in his heart. It is obvious that Dian Wei's martial arts are superior to his.In contrast, there was a lingering shadow in his heart, worrying about gain and loss, hesitant to make a decision.

Fighting generals in front of the battle, the comparison is the martial arts and the ability to respond to the situation of the generals of both sides.If it were other generals of the Wuwei Army, such as the previous Zhang Liao and Yang Ding, Duan Yan would definitely not be timid, and even wished to have a few more such opponents, because these people all brought him his achievements. The more the better.However, facing Dian Wei, the mighty general under Li Li's command, he was full of worries, and he didn't even have a [-]% chance of winning in his heart.As far as he knew, Dian Wei was the first general to follow Li Li.When Li Li was idle in Chang'an, Dian Wei would take care of him sooner or later, and then followed Li Li to Wuwei County to take office, fighting and fighting all the way, and took down half of Xiliang.

For such a brave man who has experienced many battles, if he said that Dian Wei's ability to face a battle is not strong, no one would believe it, and Duan Yan would not believe it either.Since then, Dian Wei not only has high martial arts skills, but also has rich experience in fighting in front of the battle. This is equivalent to saying that Duan Yan has no possibility of winning and will undoubtedly lose.

To fight, or not to fight?

If you want to fight, you have to agree to Dian Wei's bet and be willing to admit defeat.Without a fight, facing Dian Wei's covetous posture, even if Duan Yan wanted to retreat to the front line, it would not be an easy task.Once he fled back to his own army before the battle, it would mean that the two previous victories he had won would be wiped out, and he would even be reprimanded by Li Jue, shamed by the generals and soldiers in the army, and the good reputation accumulated over the years would be destroyed. .This kind of result was too terrible, almost destroying everything he expected.

At this moment, Duan Yan hoped that Li Jue would order to recall him and send another general to fight.So he turned his head to look at Li Jue who was in front of the horse formation in the distance, but found that Li Jue seemed to have confidence in him and gave him an encouraging look.This was a look he least expected to see, but he saw it.He knew why Li Jue didn't call him back to the battle, because he had been deliberately hiding his strength before, but it was revealed in this battle, just like Guo Bang before.Guo Bang is Li Jue's sworn brother, but Li Jue watched Guo Bang being captured alive and watched coldly.Guo Si is like this, let alone Duan Yan?

What should we do now?

Seek from wealth and danger since ancient times.

There is no avoidance, there is only one battle!

"General Dian, Duan accepts the war contract! If Duan loses, he is willing to surrender to General Xiaoqi and let him be ordered. However, if Duan remains undefeated within a hundred rounds, then General Dian has lost. Please also General Dian keeps his promise, dismounts and admits defeat in public!"
