the next day.
Han Qinhu led his troops into battle.
This time, it was not Han Wang Yang Liang's large army that faced off against the imperial army.
It was a group of five thousand elite cavalry led by Yang Liang, Liang Shitai, and Qiao Zhongkui.
"Han Qinhu, we had a battle yesterday and we didn't win or lose. Do you dare to come again today?"
King Yang Liang of Han Dynasty, with his golden sword on his horse, stared at the general of the court with an arrogant expression and said.
"The King of Han has an order, how dare I disobey it?"
Han Qinhu stroked his long beard with his hand and smiled slightly.
"Okay! I heard that you have an expert who is proficient in magic under your command. Who is he?"
Yang Liang curled his lips and then said.
"I am Li Jing of Jingzhao Sanyuan. I have met His Highness the King of Han!"
I heard Yang Liang ask.
Li Jing did not hide anything, and immediately urged the green-maned horse to open up, holding the magic whip to ward off evil spirits, and walked out slowly.
"What sect are you from?"
Saw Li Jing coming out of battle.
Qiao Zhongkui frowned.
He looked at Li Jing with his eyes and asked in a low voice.
"Naturally, it is different from heretics. What I practice is the authentic Taoist method."
Li Jing smiled slightly and replied.
"Are you saying that my practice is wrong?"
Qiao Zhongkui's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and his tone became colder.
turn out to be.
This Qiao Zhongkui has no inheritance.
When he was young, he once rescued an old monk in red robe who was about to starve to death.
In order to repay the favor of a meal, the old monk taught Qiao Zhongkui a magic spell and also gave him a fairy apricot, which caused Qiao Zhongkui to have such a ferocious appearance.
However, since then.
Qiao Zhongkui never saw the old monk in red robe again.
therefore.
He was successful in spiritual practice and traveled around the world. Whenever he heard someone saying that he was a crooked person, he would lose his temper and torture the person who said this to death.
now.
Li Jing's casual words touched Qiao Zhongkui's reverse scale.
Qiao Zhongkui's anger burned in his heart, and he wished he could swallow Li Jing upright now.
However.
Because now we have to focus on the overall situation.
Qiao Zhongkui didn't dare to make a mistake.
He suppressed his anger and said coldly: "What a sharp-tongued young man! You said that you are an authentic Taoist. Well, how about you and me having a duel?"
Li Jing smiled slightly and said: "Of course you can... I wonder how you want to fight?"
"But the fighting skills of ordinary Taoists are nothing more than fighting skills, treasure fighting, and fighting formations... Now, you and I will compete in these three categories, how about it?"
Qiao Zhongkui looked at Li Jing with burning eyes and said coldly.
turn out to be.
This Qiao Zhongkui has his own plans.
During yesterday's battle, he had his first glimpse of the mystery of Li Jing's evil whip. If he were to compete with the magic weapon alone, he might not be able to do it.
And if you include fighting skills and fighting formations, even if Li Jing is so young, he probably hasn't practiced any magical spells or mysterious formations!
"Okay! I don't know when to start?"
Li Jing asked with a smile on his face.
"It's better to choose a day than to hit it. Now you and I have a competition in front of the two armies. I wonder if you dare to accept the challenge?"
Qiao Zhongkui relied on his Taoist skills, pointed at Li Jing, and shouted loudly.
"Hahahaha! Okay, the two of you will compete here today. If one side wins, the loser will just retreat. How about that?"
When Yang Liang, the king of Han Dynasty, heard this, he unconsciously spoke.
"Your Highness, I have been called to go on an expedition and cannot be used for bets. If you want to set up a bet with this, I will not be able to agree."
Hear this.
Han Qinhu shook his head and said.
"Han Qinhu! The lonely king has been forbearing many times, but you are so rude? Forget it! Even if there is no fight today, let's start a battle and separate the male and female!"
When Yang Liang, the king of Han Dynasty, heard what Han Qinhu said, he couldn't help but became furious, pointed at him, and shouted curses.
Han Qinhu heard this and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, Li Jing on the side cupped his hands and said: "General, don't worry, it's okay to fight with this monster."
Han Qinhu thought for a while, and after planning for a while, he immediately said: "Forget it, the pharmacist is going, be more careful."
"yes!"
Li Jing nodded slightly, lightly spurred his horse, and walked forward slowly.
"Come on, how do you compare in the first game?"
Li Jing looked at Qiao Zhongkui, half-smiling but not smiling, and said.
"In the first game, the two of us will compete in formations. Do you dare?"
Qiao Zhongkui said with a sneer.
"Please give me your permission!"
Li Jing nodded and said.
"How brave!"
Qiao Zhongkui said rightly.
Say it.
He reached into his arms and took out a palm-sized red pennant, and then continued: "This is the flag gate formation that I have practiced for many years. If you can break it, just come in!"
As he spoke, he pushed down the red pennant, and the flag immediately turned into a door. Qiao Zhongkui, with his men and horses, walked straight into the flag door, waiting for Li Jing to come in.
"Hahahaha! I'm coming too!"
Seeing Qiao Zhongkui casting a spell, Li Jing didn't feel any panic at all.
He studied under his master Lin Zhanran and had long been familiar with all kinds of Five Elements Taoism and strange methods.
Formations like Qiao Zhongkui's are just the simplest techniques of the inner flag sect. If they encounter an ordinary general, they will naturally be invincible.
But.
This time, he met Li Jing.
At this moment.
But he saw Li Jing holding the magic whip to ward off evil spirits in his left hand and holding the reins of the green-maned horse in his right hand, charging straight towards the red pennant flag gate.
Walk closer.
However, he did not enter the flag gate. He only raised the divine whip in his hand, and with a slight stroke, he immediately drew a new flag gate.
Immediately, Li Jing slapped his horse and entered without knowing where he was going.
This is the season.
Qiao Zhongkui hid behind the flag gate and carefully checked Li Jing's movements.
He was shocked when he saw Li Jing walking to the flag gate and suddenly disappeared.
At this moment.
Qiao Zhongkui only heard a soft "swipe" sound behind his head, and the divine whip flashed with golden light, hitting Qiao Zhongkui's shoulder, causing Qiao Zhongkui to spurt blood from his mouth, and turned around to retreat.
turn out to be.
This Qiao Zhongkui's inner flag gate is a fire formation.
However, the Wai Qi Men that Li Jing casually released had the magical power of water.
Water and fire are inherently in conflict with each other.
The outer flag gate is a formation that steadily suppresses the inner flag gate.
so.
Li Jing can easily win a game by using this technique.
Back to the present.
Qiao Zhongkui pulled his horse back to Yang Liang.
He looked at Li Jing coldly, breathed for a moment, and then said: "What a boy! What a skill! In the next round, how about we fight with each other in martial arts?"
"You want to fight?"
unexpectedly.
After hearing this, Li Jing had a strange look on his face.
"What? You don't dare to fight me?"
Seeing this, Qiao Zhongkui snorted coldly and asked.
"Last night you used the magic of confusing the sky and used the black mist to cover the soldiers and horses to attack our army's granary. Didn't you already fight the magic in this matter?"
Li Jing looked at Qiao Zhongkui, half-smiling but not smiling, and said.
Upon hearing this.
The faces of Han Wang Yang Liang and Qiao Zhongkui changed color.
turn out to be.
Just yesterday.
After Qiao Zhongkui saw Li Jing's ability, he immediately met with Yang Liang and offered advice: "The imperial soldiers and horses are moral people. If they fight normally, they may not be able to win. Therefore, a two-pronged approach is needed to stabilize the victory."
So, that night.
King Yang Liang of Han followed Qiao Zhongkui's plan.
He sent Gao Yaxian and Pei Wen'an to lead the cavalry, and under the cover of the black mist of Qiao Zhongkui's "Mystery of the Sky", they attacked the grain garrison at Pujin Pass.
As for himself, he, together with Qiao Zhongkui and Liang Shitai, had a head-on confrontation with Han Qinhu.
today.
When everyone saw Li Jing and Sima Chao in front of the battle, they thought Han Qinhu and others did not know about the robbery of food and grass.
Unexpectedly.
At this time, Li Jing suddenly mentioned it, which caught Han Wang Yang Liang off guard.
And, just at this time.
Only the rumble of horse hooves was heard.
On the left and right sides of Han Qinhu's military formation, two more soldiers and horses suddenly came out.
There is a group of soldiers and horses on the left, headed by a general with a red face and long beard, who is Wei Wentong.
A group of soldiers and horses on the right, headed by a general with a white face and painted halberd, is Li Mi's brother Li Yin.
Two soldiers and horses, like a pair of open scissors, one on the left and one on the right, clamped down on both sides of Yang Liang's military formation.
at the same time.
Yang Liang looked at the necks of Wei Wentong and Li Yin's horses, and his heart became even heavier.
Because, under Wei Wentong's battle horse Luan bell, the head of Gao Yaxian hangs impressively.
And under the luan bell of Li Yin's horse, naturally, it was Pei Wen'an's head.
"kill!"
but.
Just when Yang Liang was stunned.
Han Qinhu raised his sword in his hand and immediately ordered the entire army to attack.
Suddenly.
The iron hoofs rumbled, and countless elite cavalry from the imperial court came overwhelmingly to kill. The military formation of Yang Liang and others was immediately scattered.
Qiao Zhongkui and Liang Shitai protected Yang Liang and fought their way out of the siege, running straight to the bank of the Yellow River.
Unexpectedly, everyone led the remaining defeated soldiers to the bank of the Yellow River when they saw a girl wearing red armor and holding a Fangtian painted halberd standing on a horse, shouting coldly: "Qiao Zhongkui, my aunt has been waiting here for a long time! "
"This person is not to be underestimated. You stand back and I will protect His Highness and kill him!"
When Qiao Zhongkui saw this woman, he felt wary in his heart, so he said to Liang Shitai.
Say it.
Qiao Zhongkui abandoned his sword and only picked up a pair of short-handled maces. He spurred his horse and went straight for the woman.
"Suffer death!"
While flying forward, Qiao Zhongkui shouted loudly.
At the same time, he silently recited a spell in his mind, only to hear a cracking sound, and a red dragon appeared from behind his head, watching the woman fly away.
"Well done!"
The woman sneered, holding the square halberd in her left hand, and patted the forehead-wiping orb with her right hand.
The orb suddenly shone brightly, and a dragon's roar came from it, causing the red dragon to collapse and disappear.
at the same time.
She galloped out on horseback, with Fang Tian's painted halberd in her palm flashing with light, and with just one blow, she stabbed Qiao Zhongkui off the horse.
After killing Qiao Zhongkui.
Yang Liang's troops collapsed instantly.
Fortunately, Liang Shitai was brave enough to fight with his hands and hammers, protected Yang Liang, seized a small boat, and crossed the Yellow River with only a dozen soldiers.
As for the soldiers and horses, they were all killed on the banks of the Yellow River, and almost the entire army was wiped out.
Besides, Yang Liang, the king of Han, who was as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog, followed Liang Shitai across the river, gathered up his old troops on the bank, and counted the number of people, only more than 3,000 people were left.
When Yang Liang saw this, he felt depressed and sighed.
until late at night.
Yang Liang was thinking about future strategies in the tent.
At this time.
A soldier walked in quickly and reported: "Your Highness, a military report came from Bingzhou that our army was defeated... Wang Ke of Jizhou personally led his troops to the expedition!"
"What!"
Upon hearing this.
Yang Liang was horrified.
