No one present can change this result, not even Sun Chengzong, who is the economic strategist of Liaodong, he can only helplessly watch his confidant accept the bet.

The rest of the Liaodong military generals also wanted to step forward to dissuade Man Gui, but it was too late, and the whole game became impossible to end, so they had to step forward to comfort Man Gui.

"General Mangui, Guan Ning Iron Cavalry will definitely win."

"Those Jinyi Wei Ti cavalry just look fancy, and the armor they wear is brighter than Guan Ning's iron cavalry, but they are actually not very good."

"There are no cowards in Liaodong men."

As a colleague in the Liaodong frontier defense, almost everyone stepped forward to cheer for Man Gui, only one person did not step forward, sitting alone in his seat, I don't know what he was thinking?

This person is Zu Dashou, who belongs to the rank of Liaodong military generals. Out of the friendship of colleagues, he saw Man Gui complaining about the Guanning iron cavalry. In particular, he and Man Gui belonged to Liaodong military generals that Sun Chengzong focused on training.

However, Li Mu's words deeply touched a certain string in Zu Dashou's heart. For a person who had been spying on Guan Ning's cavalry for a long time, he regarded him as something in his pocket.

Now that it is possible to lose what should belong to him because of a gamble, how can Zu Dashou not be in a trance for a while, a little bit out of proportion.

No one would doubt what Li Mu said, Jin Yiwei is extremely powerful now, and its power far exceeds that of Dongchang during the Apocalypse Dynasty, which shows the status of Jin Yiwei in the heart of the current Empress Dowager.

Especially Li Mu's status as the commander of Jinyiwei and the status of a side supervisor of the country, if he proposes to the Queen Mother Jian Guo who should be the commander of Guan Ning's iron cavalry, then there is a high probability that the imperial court will pass it smoothly.

Zu Dashou never thought that Guan Ning's iron cavalry would lose. He also believed that the Jinyi Wei Ti cavalry sent by the imperial court to Liaodong belonged to cavalry with silver spears and wax heads, and they were not useful.

If the two armies confront each other, the Guanning cavalry will surely win. Zu Dashou has great confidence in this. After all, he is in charge of the Guanning cavalry in Liaodong, and he knows the actual combat power of the Guanning cavalry best.

Man Gui stepped down from the general platform, and the other Liaodong officials couldn't help, so he sat back in his seat again. A colleague who was close to Zu Dashou poked him and said, "Old Zu, there will be a good show in a while, and you'd better Get to know Guan Ning’s cavalry, and tell me that with a few dashes, Guan Ning’s cavalry can kill these Jinyi Wei Ti cavalry from the capital?”

"Ah, oh, how can this be guessed? Seeing how confident Master Li from the capital is, maybe he has some special means." Zu Dashou said perfunctorily, and after finishing speaking, he looked at his colleagues around him with a look of excitement Looking at it, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, because of the bet, there was a little confusion on the stage for a while, but no one noticed that he didn't get up

The leader of the general stage, Sun Chengzong saw that his confidant was going down to make preparations. Seeing that the matter was irreversible, he could only smile and said to Li Mu: "Lord Li, it's just a bet, why bother with your life? Man Gui is also a great Ming. A loyal and fierce general, but his temper is a little bit explosive, and sometimes he is very contradictory to me, a superior, and I am here to apologize to Lord Li on behalf of Man Gui."

"Haha." Li Mu said with a smile: "Master Sun is too worried, why would I want General Man Gui's life? A living General Man Gui is more valuable than a dead Man Gui, isn't it? Master Sun."

"Ah." Sun Chengzong was taken aback for a moment, then smiled knowingly, and agreed: "Yes, Master Li is right, let's see if Guan Ning's iron cavalry can catch Master Li's eyes."

"Okay, together, Master Sun will also help me see how the wolf riders are doing?" Li Mu replied.

Sun Chengzong laughed heartily and said, "Okay, I will follow Master Li's wishes."

Knowing that the gamble was just a joke of Li Mu, Sun Chengzong was in a good mood without worrying just now, and started to watch a show. He also wanted to see how the Guanning iron cavalry was going to be against the cavalry in Daming.

After a long time, Man Gui rode to the general's stage in armor and said respectfully to the stage: "My lord, the final general is ready, please move out of the city."

Although the school field occupies a large area, it would be a little cautious if it was used as a confrontation between two groups of cavalry, no matter which side was in the camp of the school field, they would not be able to show their posture.

It can be said that the war horse reached the other side of the school field before letting go of its speed.

For this reason, Man Gui, who had just gone down to prepare, came to the stage, and asked Sun Chengzong and Li Mu to move outside the city. There is a wide space outside the city for the cavalry to play, and it is also suitable for the confrontation between the cavalry.

Hearing Man Gui's invitation, Sun Chengzong didn't agree directly, but turned his head to look at Li Mu and asked, "How is Master Li?"

"Okay, it's up to Mr. Sun to decide. It just so happens that I also want to see the scenery of Liaodong." Li Mu stood up with a smile.

After finishing speaking, the two got up and left the general platform, preparing to go to the venue where the wolf cavalry guards and Guan Ning cavalry faced off.

It is true that the venue for the confrontation is outside the city, and the place to watch it is not outside the city, but on a certain tower in Shanhaiguan. Standing on a high place, you can watch this cavalry martial arts confrontation very well.

Man Gui didn't have the courage to let Sun Chengzong and Li Mu be outside the city, exposed to the anxious zone of Daming and the Jurchens, anyone who dared to do so had a faulty mind.

Not long after, Li Mu walked along the brick road on the city wall and arrived at a certain tower inside the battlement wall while Sun Chengzong was introducing the beautiful scenery of Shanhaiguan.

Two chairs have been set up outside the city tower, allowing Li Mu and Sun Chengzong to sit behind the wall and watch everything happening outside the city.

After some courtesy, the two sat down one after another.

Sun Chengzong looked at Zu Dashou who was following him and said: "Dashou, go and tell Man Gui that this is a confrontation between the Ming brothers, don't hurt your peace."

"No," Zu Dashou finished, turned and left the tower.

Seeing this, Li Mu naturally knew that Sun Chengzong was out of consideration for his face and didn't want the Wolf Riders to lose too badly, so he ordered this to continue, but he didn't have any intention of showing any respect.

He gave the same order to a guard who was beside him: "Go and order, Guan Ning's iron cavalry has been released, let them be gentle, don't hurt anyone, Guan Ning's iron cavalry will still be useful in the future."

"No." After listening to the order, the wolf cavalry guard also turned down the tower, pretending to give Li Mu's order to the opposing wolf cavalry guard.

Seeing Li Mu's order, Sun Chengzong thought that he had misunderstood his meaning, and quickly explained, "Master Li, why is this?"

"It's okay, Mr. Sun. Since the two armies are confronting each other, we must show our real skills. You have already let Guan Ning's iron cavalry release the water, so I can't let the wolf cavalry guards take it lightly." He took a sip of the teacup and said, "This tea is not bad, Mr. Sun will also taste it."

Sun Chengzong had no choice but to hold up the teacup beside him and pray that nothing would go wrong in the confrontation between the two armies for a while.

"Wow."

After a while, a melodious and dull ox horn sounded, echoing over Shanhaiguan City, which also indicated that the confrontation between the wolf cavalry guards and Guan Ning cavalry was about to begin.

Under the sound of the horn, two small groups of cavalry appeared on both sides of the open space outside the city tower. The number of cavalry on each side was about 1000.

The cavalry confrontation is actually very simple. It is nothing more than shooting arrows at a long distance, and then rushing to the enemy to start a wave of cold weapon handover.

Since it was a cavalry performance, not a real fight between enemy troops, Man Gui did not let Guan Ning's cavalry use the three-eyed matte, but used a saber wrapped in sackcloth, or some other horse weapons.

Although this would lower the combat effectiveness of Guan Ning's iron cavalry as a whole, Man Gui didn't care much about this. He always believed that even with bare hands, Guan Ning's iron cavalry could defeat Jinyiwei's Ti cavalry.

Sun Chengzong, who was sitting on the tower, didn't pay attention to the situation of Guan Ning's cavalry. Instead, he paid attention to the wolf cavalry guards. After confirming his eyes, he asked: "Master Li, the wolf cavalry guards don't seem to be equipped with firearms."

"Firearms? Master Sun also noticed?" Li Mu nodded and admitted.

It wasn't that they didn't want to equip the wolf cavalry with firearms. Before leaving the capital, Zhang Yan asked Li Mu if he wanted to equip the wolf cavalry with firearms, but he flatly rejected it.

For the wolf cavalry guards, it doesn't matter what kind of weapon they use in the late Ming Dynasty. Unless the firearm has a large-scale destruction effect, it is not as convenient as a cold weapon, at least there is no need to consider the problem of ammunition filling.

If you have to use firearms, the firearms in the Ming plane are completely useless. Li Mu can definitely get a batch of weapons from the plane to equip the wolf riders.

It's just that Li Mu didn't do this. There are many reasons for this, time is not allowed, or other reasons. In the final analysis, he likes cold weapons. The shock of being torn apart by knives on the battlefield will be taken away with every knife. The indifference of a life cannot be achieved by hot weapons.

Ever since Li Mu conquered Wa Island and killed Tubo in the plane of Tang Dynasty, he fell in love with the feeling of using cold weapons to fight the two armies, the feeling of killing with blood.

This feeling made him not bring high-end thermal weapons to other planes when it was not necessary.

In ancient battles, the punches were life-threatening, and the swords saw blood, relying on the strong strength of human beings themselves, not using hot weapons, one order, and countless ammunition flying across, can harvest a whole piece of life.

The combatants couldn't see the cruelty of the battlefield at all. It is possible that the one who gave the order was eating Western food and drinking red wine in the rear, and soaking in beautiful women by the way.

Ancient warfare should not be like this.

Li Mu does not reject the use of thermal weapons, but they must be used according to the historical development of each plane, otherwise, if a batch of AK47s are brought to Ming Dynasty to play, how can there be Jurchens?
