The next morning, the loud trumpet sounded everywhere in Longyuan.

In the early morning mist, the team drove out of the camp.

After the array was completed, the sun happened to burst out from the horizon, shining on the soldiers' armor, reflecting thousands of golden lights.

Li Er stood on the platform, looking at the more than ten thousand troops below, excitedly whispering. Although he is the emperor now, he spends most of his time dealing with official duties and has few opportunities to leave the palace, let alone watch the army line up.

Beside Li Er, all the sixteen generals of the guards were present, and even further away were some civil servants. The entire army competition was the home court of military generals and had little to do with civil servants. It was like during the scientific examination that the generals were responsible for searching and standing guard.

But... there are always a small group of people in the array that seem a bit unsociable, not that those small group of people perform poorly.

In fact, that small group of people were the best performers of all cohorts.

Whether looking horizontally or vertically, the square formations that the small group of people stand are straight lines, with a cheerful spirit, high fighting spirit, and a wolf looking at the eagle.

The left-leading guard Ling Mansion, the only team among the sixteen guards without armor, but they look handsome no matter how they look, compared to the other soldiers wearing armor and still floating in the morning breeze...

Forget it, it's incomparable, it's just like porcelain and pottery cannot be compared together.

Li Er was very satisfied, nodded slightly, and said to the following: "Li Dejian."

"I'm here!" Li Hao stepped out of the line and pointed to the ground on one knee.

Anyway, even if you stand up straight, you are still under Li Er's feet. It's better to just keep a low profile.

Li Er looked down at Li Hao and asked lightly: "Why is there no armor on Ling Mansion?"

"Your Majesty, Ling Mansion does not need armor, because the enemy is destined to fall on the road to attack and there will be no chance to meet you."

So awesome?

The old men looked at each other, and the soldiers from each guard and the palace below gritted their teeth.

Li Er didn't know what to say, and waited for a long time before speaking: "Do you want to be the first to fight?"

"But obey your Majesty's orders, the Ling Mansion is willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty."

Li Er was so excited when he heard this, he laughed and said, "Haha... OK, since that's the case, you should choose an opponent."

"It doesn't matter." Li Hao shrugged and looked at more than ten colleagues who were glaring at him: "Who are you going first?"

"The Zuo Guard is willing to learn it."

"The Right Cavalry Guard is willing to have a good move."

"Do you dare to fight with my right leader guard."

Hey? Right leader guard? Is this the opponent?

Li Hao's eyes turned and he looked at a middle-aged uncle: "Uncle Niu, are you the right guard?"

"Yes, boy, can you dare to fight me."

Li Hao showed a harmless expression: "Okay, I won't bully you anyway. You can choose the tactics of the war, the venue first."

Oh my go, this is so annoying!

Uncle Niu is a veteran on the battlefield after all. After being so despised by a young man, he almost burst into anger. He looked up at Li Er: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask Your Majesty to let you compete with this bastard to attack the city. I defend you and he attacks."

"Bah, Niu Jinda, you are shameless, are you? You are planning to break the can, right? Just deal with a few kids and take the defensive posture, but you still have to defend the city!" Before Li Er could speak, Hou Junji's voice came down, full of contempt.

Niu Jinda glared at her eyes and refused to give in: "The little baby is unobstructed and looks at the sky in a well. I want to teach him a lesson, it will be better than going to the battlefield to die in the future. Hou Junji, if you don't accept it, you can come down and compete."

Hou Junji was furious when he heard this. He was about to go down at that time, but he didn't expect to be stopped by Li Er: "Okay, together, people in their nineties are all over the age of 90, and they are just laughing at the quarrels." After saying that, he looked at Li Hao below: "Li Dejian, are you willing to accept General Niu's challenge."

Li Hao was a little embarrassed, and looked at Niu Jinda: "I am willing."

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll give you half an hour to prepare, and then start in half an hour." Li Er turned around and walked towards the chair already prepared on the platform.

The sixteen guards who were lined up below also retreated and gave way to a large area of ​​open space under the city.

Niu Jinda came to Li Hao: "Boy, don't blame Uncle Niu for being unethical and bullying the small. People always suffer some losses in their lives to know what there is beyond heaven and beyond heaven."

Li Hao smiled shyly: "Hehe, thank you Uncle Niu, but... I may not lose this battle."

Li Jing, who was a little worried about his son, happened to come behind Li Hao at this time. He heard that he was a big neck: "Don't talk nonsense, don't apologize to General Niu."

Li Hao was beaten and screamed. When he turned around, he saw that it was his father. He suddenly lost his temper and bowed to Niu Jinda: "Uncle Niu, that... I didn't mean to win you. I really relied on the advantage of weapons. In fact, I really fought. My nephew may not be your opponent. I would like to ask Uncle Niu for advice in the future."

Li Jing: “…”

Niu Jinda: "..."

Does this kid have any misunderstandings about apology? How does this sound like a declaration of victory? You know you have won before you even hit it?

The clay man is still three-pointed. How can an old thief like Niu Jinda have no temper? He said angrily: "Okay, boy is so courageous. I remember your words. I just hope that the strength of your Ling Mansion can be worthy of your mouth."

Lao Niu left and took people to go. Li Hao blinked his innocent eyes and looked at the old man in a cute and cute way: "Dad, did I say the wrong thing?"

What can Li Jing say? What he says is like water splashed out, but he can't collect it.

He patted Li Hao on the shoulder and said dejectedly: "Work hard, don't lose too ugly."

What does it mean? What does the old man mean? How can you destroy your own power by gaining ambition to others?

Look at Cheng Chumo, Changsun Chong, Li Zhen, and Li Hao, who were already ready to go and take a look, "Brothers, it's time to show their faces. Let's prepare too, let those old guys know what the Yangtze River is about and the previous waves, and the previous waves die on the beach."

Cheng Chumo grinned and said, "Hehe, it's great. I've been disliked by those old lamps for a long time. Why not just brush them one by one today."

"Stop talking nonsense, go and prepare quickly. Are you ready for the siege ladder? Don't get any problems when you get into the city."

"Don't worry, I'm ready for it."

Compared with Li Zhen and Changsun Chong, who were in charge of equipment and long-range attacks, Cheng Chumo's task was much easier and he didn't need to prepare. In his time of speaking, about 200 people had already lined up with five ladders about two feet long.

On the other hand, Changsun Chong and Li Zhen launched twenty strange-shaped cars and stood in front of Cheng Chumo's team. The whole process took only two quarters of an hour.

At this time, Niu Jinda had already stood up, and one thousand two hundred soldiers bent their bows and arrows, standing in two rows of battles.

"Let's start!" Li Er saw that the two teams in the city were all ready, and he ordered to start without waiting for half an hour.

"Prepare to put that kid within two hundred steps and then shoot, no one is allowed to attack in advance." After Li Er's order, Niu Jinda smiled fiercely.

As the side guarding the city, there are also a full mansion full of people. If the little kids cannot be taken away in one fell swoop, his old face will probably be lost.

While Niu Jinda gave the order, Li Hao also issued an order to attack: "Attack, advance to the city for 400 steps."

"No!" Twenty long chariots were pulled by twenty war horses and moved quickly to a distance of four hundred steps from the city wall. The war horse turned around and aimed the rear of the car at the city wall and stopped.

What are you doing? Why don’t you attack? What tricks does this kid want to play?

Niu Jinda was confused. Before he could figure it out, a messenger ran up to pass the message, and everyone took off the city.

Niu Jinda was blown up at that time: "Why should you withdraw from me? I haven't fought this battle yet, so I can't cheat like this."

The messenger was scolded and couldn't raise his head. He said aggrievedly: "No, General Niu, listen to my explanation. General Xiao Li just said that his weapons are too powerful. Let's use the straw man he prepared before to replace you, otherwise there will be accidental injuries."

Niu Jinda stared at him: "So what's wrong with being powerful? It's still four hundred steps away. Do you know if you're colluding with each other. I plan to let me take it down first so as to give them a chance to get close to the city wall."

"No, really not." The messenger shook his head quickly, and he said for a while: "General Niu, we are so brave that we dare not cheat in front of His Majesty. Do you think so?"

Niu Jinda thought about it and felt that it was really the case.

But looking at the city, the old cow was a little puzzled. Four hundred steps, isn't this going? Even if you pull the eight-magic crossbow, what can you do? Can the four hundred steps still shoot the city wall through the city? This is concrete.

But in the end, Niu Jinda retreated with the troops who had prepared for a long time. Although he was dissatisfied, the order was an order.

In the stands in the distance, the old guys watching the fun looked at each other, not sure why Niu Jinda retreated. Do you want to cheat? This is absolutely not possible.

Li Er also frowned. This military speech was from actual combat, but he didn't know what was going on in actual combat. Seeing the right leader's guard retreating, he looked at Li Hao's side who was closer to him in some unknown way.

But seeing that Ling Mansion had already removed the things covered on the carriage at this time, revealing the black triangular things on the carriage, one or two of them smiling despicablely, as if waiting for something.

After a while, a flag on the top of the city waved a few times, and one thousand two hundred straw men were stood up.

Sitting in Li Er's position, I couldn't see what was on the top of the city, but I saw some shadows and stood up unconsciously when I was shocked and suspicious.
Chapter completed!
