Chapter 290 I am the Duke of Liang, and so is Chen Cao III
"Dong Guo Liang hopes that General You can understand the situation clearly and step out of the position. Duke Liang is willing to engage in a one-on-one gentleman's duel with you."
Not long after, Chen Cao saw a horse riding out from across the stone bridge, wearing Mingguang armor and phoenix-winged armor that showed his identity as a commander-in-chief.
Seeing this, Chen Cao was about to ride his horse forward, but was stopped by the people around him. After all, Chen Cao was the lifeblood of the Songjiang line, and the reputation of the You family brothers in Yulin was known to everyone in the Ming Dynasty. If Chen Cao had At any rate, they were all finished.
"My lord, why don't you let the last general go and fight on your lord's behalf?"
Qi Xianzong's family passed down the swordsmanship of the Qi family, and his personal bravery was of course not mentioned, but Chen Cao was unwilling. Unless Cao Wenzhao's uncle and nephew were here, he really was not willing to let Qi Xianzong go.
Once he loses, it won't be his Qi family's face that will be lost.
Huang Chunyao shook his fan: "It's not yet time for General Qi to go into battle. If Huang Degong or Lou Xingye are here at this moment, maybe we can provoke them."
It is estimated that only Zhao Xin present knew how Chen Cao single-handedly killed Belmulhaqi among hundreds of Jiannu cavalry.
Although it was rumored in the army that their prince was very brave and had first-class battle skills, they had never seen his true skills. The soldiers behind him couldn't help but want to encourage Chen Cao to rush into battle.
Chen Cao laughed loudly: "Don't worry, let's see how I capture You Shiwei alive today. Bring me Ma Shan."
Weapons like the Ma Cha were top-grade in the Han Dynasty. It was in the Tang Dynasty that they were used collectively on the battlefield and exerted their greatest power. At that time, how the senior generals of the Tang Dynasty could tell who came from a wealthy family was to see whether they had weapons in their hands. Excellent horse.
Since the Song Dynasty, lances have slowly replaced expensive weapons like the Ma Shan. However, Chen Cao has already mastered the marksmanship of the Liaohe gun in his family. Compared with the cheap lances, the Ma Shan is Expensive, but much more practical than a lance.
Chen Cao's horse pole is a fine product made in the workshop. It is forged from light steel and only weighs twelve pounds. The entire pole is two meters and four meters long. The blade alone is longer than the longest fifty centimeters in the Han Dynasty, which is a full Sixty centimeters long, which is thirty centimeters longer than the current standard lance head of the Ming Dynasty.
As the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is strong. After taking the horse, Chen Cao used two moves in his hands. After becoming familiar with the weight of the horse, he rode forward.
With the help of the sergeant, the rubble on one of the twelve stone bridges in front was cleared. Chen Cao rode forward, walked to the stone bridge and looked at it immediately.
You Shiwei also came on horseback with a lance in his hand. After the two met each other, Chen Cao could clearly see this famous Ming general who was famous for future generations. You Shiwei was about 1.9 meters tall, with a standard Chinese character face and a smile on his face. The unique yellow color of men from the Loess Plateau, their chins and beards are only neatly groomed, their eyebrows are cold and their eyes are calm, and they look like a king.
Look at Chen Cao, Duke of Liang, with a fair face and no beard, a height of 1.87 meters, his hair tied high in a bun on the back of his head, wearing a steel plate armor over a red drag suit, a standard Ming Dynasty handsome man.
"I never expected that the world-famous Duke of Liang, Chen Cao, would be such a young man."
You Shiwei was the first to speak, and Chen Cao smiled calmly: "I think that among the famous generals of this country, General You is the number one."
It seems that they are complimenting each other, but in fact, the two sides are now at war with each other and are observing each other.
Chen Cao followed the process and asked: "General You used the troops like a god. He fought all the way from Suzhou to Hangzhou, which made me miss all the opportunities to go north. Since the Liaodong army was unified, the first loss exceeded 10,000 people. I couldn't do it." I don’t admire General You’s way of using troops.”
"The Duke of Liang should not praise the general. If you were the Duke of Liang and rebelled against me, maybe now the general can shake hands with the Duke and talk and have a few drinks."
Chen Cao had an idea and looked around behind him with his finger: "Zuo Liangyu wanted to escape from Zhengyang Gate, but he was repulsed by my men. Now you are trapped in the governor's Yamen and you are like a caged bird. I cherish you." General You, why not surrender and protect the Yulin border troops?"
You Shiwei said without changing his expression: "People of different ways will not conspire against each other. My You family has been the defender of Yulin for generations. Emperors of all dynasties have been very kind to my You family. It is a matter of being loyal to the emperor by eating the emperor's salary. Duke Liang, although you The emperor deprived you of your title, but I still respect your actions in Liaodong and kindly advise the Duke not to rebel and cause trouble. I will definitely vouch for you, Duke Liang, in front of Duke Wei and the emperor."
"hey-hey..."
Chen Cao smiled evilly, then suddenly his face straightened, and he said coldly: "General Soldier You, we can wait until the battle is over to say anything. Now that tens of thousands of Yulin troops are trapped in the city, you have only one choice. First, defeat me." , I will let you evacuate, and I will never break my promise. Secondly, you swear in front of hundreds of thousands of people that if you lose, you must surrender to me."
The three brothers of the You family have a high level of force, but You Shilu was seriously injured by the explosion before he had a chance to show it. Now You Shigong is in charge of the overall situation and is watching from the other side of the bridge.
"By the way, your third brother You Shilu was seriously injured by a firearm. I have ordered a doctor to treat him."
You Shiwei obviously had psychological fluctuations after hearing the news that his brother was injured, and then he tried his best to calmly hand over to Chen Cao: "Thank you Duke Liang for your kindness."
"watch out..."
Chen Cao immediately took action and urged his horse to dismount and climb up. The distance between the stone bridge was only thirty meters, so the horse was not fast enough to charge.
Therefore, the two men started fighting directly on the horse in the center of the bridge.
As soon as they fought, the lance and the horse collided. After Chen Cao withdrew the gun, he clearly felt numbness in the tiger's mouth of his right hand. This feeling was exactly the same as when he fought against Mulhaqi.
I remember back then that he, a newborn calf, had to risk his life to kill Mulhaqi. Today, if he risked his life here, You Shiwei would definitely not choose to escape.
Just thinking about it for a few seconds, You Shiwei turned his horse's head sideways and swung his gun again. The lance held a spear in You Shiwei's hand, and Chen Cao was a little dazzled by the tassel on the gun head. However, after his own fighting will was stimulated, facing You Shiwei's fierce attack, he immediately leaned back to avoid the fatal killing move of the lance;
Chen Cao was not idle when he was leaning back. He swung his horse at a 45-degree angle, and used his blade to cut off the attack of You Shiwei's lance.
Chen Cao also used all his strength on this attack. After You Shiwei put away the gun, he had to ride back to avoid the extremely sharp blade. When he looked at the lance in his hand, it was mainly made of camphor wood and covered with iron. Since the iron skin was cut open by Ma Shan, if Chen Cao's strength was as strong as You Shiwei's, the lance in his hand might have been chopped into two pieces by Ma Shan.
At this time, You Shiwei suddenly felt the wind blowing above his head, and a strong wind was attached to the sword and stabbed toward You Shiwei's face. Even though You Shiwei had superior force, another one came after he raised the gun's crossbar. The whirlwind stick technique blocked this fatal blow, but even so, the lance in his hand was already scarred.
At this moment, Chen Cao stopped making noises with You Shiwei. He stepped on the stirrups with both feet and immediately rose into the air. Then he stepped on the horse's back again. The whole person was already flying three meters high. At the same time as he was in the air, the horse in his hand He stabbed You Shiwei's throat with a long sword.
At this moment, You Shiwei already felt that he would definitely lose, but when he saw Chen Cao actually flying in the air, which was a big taboo in a spear duel, he then stepped on the stirrup vigorously, standing on the horse's back, and rode with his hands. The gun swept across Chen Cao;
The spears and spears were handed over, and Chen Cao was relieved of his strength by You Shiwei in the air, and his whole body began to fall. In the eyes of the soldiers on both sides, Chen Cao's marksmanship was purely a recipe for death.
"broken..."
Qi Xianzong shouted loudly.
Once Chen Cao falls, he will not be able to ride on the horse, but will have to fall on the stone bridge. As long as the opponent keeps up with him and stabs him with a spear, he will definitely die.
Just when even You Shiwei himself smiled in his heart, Chen Cao, who was falling in the air for a few seconds, was interrupted by You Shiwei's lance. Chen Cao turned around in the air and shouted "Return Carbine"... .
As he turned around and fell in the air, the long spear in his hand was still tightly clenched, but it stabbed straight into You Shiwei's chest, making it impossible for anyone to dodge.
You Shiwei was stabbed by Ma Shu and fell off his horse...
"Good...good...good..."
"Hoo...ho...ho...ho..."
boom...
You Shiwei fell off the stone bridge, and looking at himself, Ma Shan's blade pierced the Mingguang Armor and the chain armor inside, and blood gushed out from You Shiwei's chest.
Looking at Chen Cao again, just when everyone thought he was bound to lose, he actually used a carbine in the air. What was even more shocking was that after using his killing move, he could still land on the horse.
This kind of skill is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
The shouts from one side have resounded through Hangzhou City. Chen Cao suddenly felt that he could become famous from now on. He gently raised his finger and pointed it in front of You Shiwei, but looked at You Shigong on the other side of the stone bridge. Others: "I am Chen Cao, Duke of Liang Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty... who dares to fight?"
This momentum resounded through the sky, and everyone seemed to see Zhang Fei's shadow scaring away a hundred thousand Cao soldiers from Changbanpo.
You Shigong shouted loudly, and then rode towards Chen Cao with a Yanyue sword. When You Shiwei was about to stop him, Chen Cao rode up to meet him without fear of danger. After the two sides fought, they fought. The fight started immediately.
However, in the 30th round, Chen Cao repeated his old tricks and once again used the killing move "Returning Carbine" to knock You Shigong off the stone bridge, and there was endless applause.
Looking at the Yulin Army on the opposite side, the two leading generals were all defeated at this moment. When Zhou Degong was about to lead a counterattack to recapture the You Shiwei brothers, the Yulin Army behind them suddenly fell into chaos.
Upon seeing this, Huang Chunyao immediately arranged for Zhao Xin and his men to step forward and detain the You Shiwei brothers. Only then did someone in the Yulin Army formation shout something like "Zuo Liangyu is rebelling."
Then the rear troops of the Yulin Army turned around and attacked the left soldiers, and the battle situation took a turn for the worse...
Chen Cao stood on his horse and raised his telescope to take a look: "It seems that someone doesn't want to die..."
