In the dim morning light, one arrow from the north gate of Jinzhou, a magnificent knight riding a majestic horse, wearing cold-forged steel armor, and a black high-needle dark tassel helmet, holding a huge tiger gun in his hand, standing silently.

The wind was flying, shaking hazy sand and dust, but the knight was still focused on looking at the huge stone-carved plaque above the north gate of Jinzhou. He stared at the three ancient letters of Wushengmen in the plaque for a long time, and his eyes were as sharp as wild wolf.

This knight was Ezhen, Gushan, Ushan, and Irgen Jueluo Ashan, who was 33 years old at the time. He focused on staring at the city gate and remembered the past four years ago when he wanted to seek refuge in Ming Kingdom.

In the autumn of the second year of Chongzhen, Ashan's brother Adahai was killed by Huang Taiji for the crime of rebellion. Ashan, who was the third-class deputy general of the Later Jin Dynasty, was very scared that Huang Taiji would plot to murder him next, so he fled to the Ming Kingdom with his brother Galazi Sehe, Adahaizi Chata, Moluohun and others.

Ashan and others came to the north gate of Jinzhou, Mingjing and sent envoys to enter the city, but the then Liaodong Governor Qiu Jiahe suspected that his envoy was doing a good job and ordered arrows to be shot and killed, and then sent troops to chase Ashan and others.

Ashan and others quickly fled, but in the end they had no choice but to return the Later Jin Dynasty and then apologized to Huang Taiji. Huang Taiji, who was quite tolerant, forgave Ashan and his group and allowed him to regain his post.

Ashan felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

After four years, I, Ashan, finally came to the city of Jinzhou again.

Last time, I, Ashan, wanted to surrender to the Ming Kingdom so sincerely. Not only did you not accept me, you also wanted to kill all of us. It was really hateful. I think it was really good to have the laws of heaven. Now, I will add this bloody sword light to the people of Ming Kingdom, but I am also blamed for your own fault!

Ashan sneered on his face.

It's a pity that when I commanded the army, burning, killing, looting, and robbing it was like entering a no-man's land. It's ridiculous that these Ming generals only dared to hide in the city, but no one dared to go out of the city to fight with themselves. Perhaps the day before yesterday, Zu Dabi's troops, known as the number one warrior in Liaodong, were almost wiped out, which made these Ming soldiers almost brave.

But unexpectedly, he shot into the arrow in Jinzhou like a joke, and invited the Ming general Li Xiao to challenge him one-on-one, to mock the Ming army again. However, he did not expect that last night, he received a reply from the Ming Dynasty that agreed to the one-on-one.

Ashan grinned, and suddenly his face looked complicated.

The Ming army proposed to return the general Li Xiao himself to 600 people and retreat to the Later Jin Dynasty. Although he was not interested in the outstanding force and wanted to agree happily, he did not expect that the Han army commander Tong Yangxing was firmly opposed.

Tong Yangxing believed that it was already extremely inappropriate for Ashan to fight with a general of the Ming army so rashly. Now he wanted to use the people captured by the Jin Dynasty to bet on the war and attached the conditions for retreating, but it was really a joke.

Tong Yangxing was extremely angry with Ashan. This Ashan had not yet been investigated for his defection that day. Today, he used the benefits obtained from the war in the Great Jin Kingdom to serve as a bet for his own stubborn and private fight. It was really hateful.

Seeing Tong Yangxing's objection, Ashan was also angry. He emphasized to Tong Yangxing that most of the villages in the western and northern parts of Jinzhou had been burned and killed. Even if he retreated, he only left a few remote villages to be killed. This invasion also completed the task excellently. Moreover, his martial arts were excellent, so he could defeat the unknown small general of the Ming army Li Xiao. These promises were just empty-handed people. What's the harm in agreeing with the Ming army's request like this?

The two had a big fight and ended up with Tong Yangxing's helpless concession.

However, although Tong Yangxing gave in to the overall situation, as the Aisin Gioro royal family, he had made up his mind to return to Chenyang and study this book of Ashan and let Huang Taiji punish this arrogant and unruly person.

The sound of Titicaca opening with the city gate reminded Ashan, who was in a mixed mood and thoughts, to come back to his senses.

Ashan saw a Ming general with a tiger-backed wolf waist, strong figure, wearing a white-shaped armor, a red tassel high-needle helmet, and a steel tiger sword in his hand. He rode a majestic horse with a black and shiny four hooves but as white as snow, slowly rode out from the north gate of Jinzhou.

This Ming army knight is Li Xiao who left the city to fight.

On the wall behind him, there were countless pairs of eyes full of expectation and concern.

Even the governor Fang Yizao and general Zu Dashou came to the city wall to watch the battle themselves. Several cowhide drums were placed on the city wall, and several thick drummers were holding huge drums in their hands, ready to cheer for Li Xiao.

Li Xiao, who rode his horse out of the city, grabbed the reins of the horse about five hundred steps away from Ashan, and stood still.

The cold wind was whistling endlessly. The strong wind blew across the empty and yellow smooth field, making strange howls. The world seemed to be covered by gray sand and dust, full of dark depression. It also made the entire empty field even more desolate and desolate.

"The general opposite, is Li Xiao?" Ashan shouted loudly in stiff Chinese.

"It's Li, are you the enemy general Ashan?" Li Xiao's face was expressionless and his tone was as cold as iron.

"Hmph! It's my general! Li Xiao, I heard that you killed many of my Big Golden Slave Cavalry. Today, I, Ashan, are coming to meet your skills!" Ashan, with a ferocious expression, expressed it in Chinese with difficulty, and there was a light like a wolve in his eyes.

Li Xiao did not answer, but just sneered, stretched out his index finger to Ashan, and hooked him.

Ashan was furious and shouted loudly, holding the tiger's gun in his right hand, and hitting the horse's belly with both legs. The horse neighed with a long pain, spreading its four hooves, and rushed towards Li Xiao!

Li Xiaoyi shouted in a deep voice, with a tiger sword in his hand, knocked his horse's belly hard, stepped on the snow-capped BMW and rang out for a long time, and he also quickly moved towards Ashan!

"Huh!!"

"ah!!"

Looking from the sky, on the boundless gray and yellow field, two small black dots as fast as meteors came at high speed, one south and one north amid the dense sound of horse hooves that were as dense as beans!

The rumbling drums, accompanied by the loud cheers of soldiers from both sides, exploded in the Ming and Jin armies almost at the same time.

Single-handed cavalry battle is the most dangerous battle. The key to winning by single-handed cavalry battle is the knight's sense of control over horses and weapons, timing of attack and weapons, location selection, angle deviation, offense and defense conversion, etc., all factors must be taken into account together. Each time you make a move, you must concentrate all your energy and concentration, and there is no deviation at all.

This kind of knight's hedge against the death, the victory or defeat is often microseconds, and life and death only lasts for a moment. Unless the force of the two sides is too far apart, no one will win, and no one will lose. Those so-called two riders fighting each other, fighting hard for dozens or hundreds of rounds, are purely jokes from novelists.

The distance of five hundred steps was extremely short, and the two majestic treasure horses ran as fast as lightning, as if in just a moment, the two riders were intertwined together.

At this moment, before the people watching the battle in the distance could see the position of the two horses clearly, Ashan had already taken the lead, shouted loudly, exerted force with both hands, and the tip of the gun flashing with the cold light, quickly pierced Li Xiao's throat!

"Good come!"

Ashan, who originally thought that this gun would hit, was surprised to see that the tip of the gun was still rushing in the air, but Li Xiao was quick-witted and took action quickly. He stopped the steel tiger sword in the air and pressed the gun against it.

"bite!"

Amid the sound of metal hitting blood, the blade of the tiger sword was hitting at the tip of the tiger gun. Ashan's strong body shook rapidly and almost fell off the horse.

Ashan's move was old and he was too late to collect his gun. He hurriedly bowed his head and lowered his head. He heard the howling sword wind in his ears, and barely avoided the powerful and heavy tiger sword sweeping that Li Xiao hit!

After the strike between the two sides finished, they immediately kept moving forward. After more than 200 steps towards their backs, they turned their heads around each other.

The drums were loud and the soldiers on both sides were cheering like thunder.

Including the Governor Fang Yizao who was watching the battle on the top of the city and the General Zu Dashou, everyone who watched the battle had an extremely excited and nervous expression. Such a single-handed cavalry battle with a rapid victory or defeat in a flash of life and death, and a violent beauty, was enough to make every passionate man's blood rush and yearn for him!

"Huh!!"

"ah!!"

The dust was everywhere in the sky, the wind was as strong as a knife, the speeding horse's hooves were beating on the earth like war drums, the flying manes were flying like flags and winds. Li Xiao and Ashan were both as tight as bows, with guns and swords across, and fast horses helped each other, and in a flash, they rushed together again!

"Crack!"

Li Xiao, who was as sharp as an eagle, took the lead. This was a fierce attack like lightning and a fierce attack like falling stones! A bright white light flashed across the tip of the steel tiger sword, and the handle of the tiger gun used by Ashan to resist was cut into two pieces from the middle!

Li Xiao hit the blow, his wrist trembled, and the cold tiger knife in his hand slashed violently, slashing straight towards Ashan's throat!

"bite!"

Ashan desperately used the half-ticket gun in his right hand to block Li Xiao's fierce attack, and the tiger's mouth in his right hand was immediately shocked and blood flowed!

When blocking Li Xiao's fierce and fatal blow, Ashan gritted his teeth and threw the second half of the tiger spear in his left hand at Li Xiao!

Li Xiao pulled his knife and pulled it away, knocking the half of the tiger gun that was throwing over. At Shan looked at it sincerely, and took advantage of this rare opportunity to quickly pull the horse's head and turn around and run backwards.

Li Xiao rode his horse north and chased him. A strong wind blew over in sand, which made Li Xiao's eyes blinded for a moment and had to tie the reins of the horse.

"Damn it! Let this guy escape!" Li Xiao, who rubbed the sand in his eyes, spat hatefully.

"Ashan, don't forget your previous appointment, let me come back quickly!" Li Xiao shouted loudly at Ashan's back as he fled.

Ashan did not respond. Li Xiao saw him galloping from afar and fleeing back to the already silent Golden Army formation.

When two armies fight against the generals, our Ming Dynasty wins!

"A thousand victories!"

"A thousand victories!"

"A thousand victories!"

At the top of Jinzhou City, all the Ming soldiers waved the swords in their hands and cheered in unison, like spring thunder rolling.

Zu Dashou laughed and rubbed his hands excitedly: "What a Li Xiao, he really has great martial arts. He really has the power of the Ming Dynasty's official army!"

Governor Fang Yizao did not speak, but just nodded frequently, his face also full of excitement.

Not long after, there was a commotion in the Jin army formation from afar.

Li Xiao, who was still standing there, clearly saw that about five or six hundred captured Ming people were running towards Jinzhou City like a group of little rabbits escaping from the minions of beasts.

"This Ashan is quite loyal!" A faint smile appeared on Li Xiao's face.

An old man with white hair ran to Li Xiao, knelt down suddenly, holding a green jade gold lion belt in both hands, and handed it to Li Xiao.

"Report to General, when the Tartar general was released back to the old man, he brought this waist to me and asked me to bring it to the general, saying that he was a little care."

Li Xiao said oh, and used the tip of the knife to lift the belt. When the old man saw Li Xiao take away the belt, he immediately got up and fled to Jinzhou City backwards.

Li Xiao looked at the belt carefully and found that the belt was made very fine, with mild steel inside, black python skin wrapped on the outside, green jade inlaid all over the body, and a little gold pinched teeth as decoration. In the middle is a Nanman lion-head swallowing belt made of pure steel, which is powerful and ferocious, and the entire belt is very beautiful and sturdy.

Flipped the belt, Li Xiao accidentally saw three small characters engraved on the back of the lion's head.

Qi Shaotang.

Li Xiao's mind suddenly felt like lightning, and he immediately figured out the origin of this belt.

Qi Shaotang was the title of Qi Jin, a famous general of the Southern Army who helped Liao at that time. Qi Jin was the son of Qi Jiming, the younger brother of Qi Jiguang. His Zhejiang soldiers were known as the last remaining fire of the Qi family army. In the bloody battle of Hunhe that day, they killed the Eight Banners almost torn apart. After killing the enemy several times, they were isolated and left unsuccessful because the Liaozhen army escaped and were eventually completely wiped out by the Eight Banners led by the old slave. After Qi Jin died, he was posthumously awarded the title of General General Tongzhi by the court and was given the posthumous title of Wu Lie.

After Qi Jin's death, this belt was captured by the Later Jin army. In order to reward Ashan, the young slave gave it to him.

Unexpectedly, to this day, Ashan gave this belt to himself, thinking that he would be a thank you for victory.

Li Xiao suddenly felt an indescribable sourness and sadness in his heart.

Holding Qi Jin's belt, he suddenly felt that although he won this one-on-one battle, the impact of real history was almost negligible.

Even though I am covered in iron, I can twist a few nails.

No matter how many single-handed victory is, can it make any effective changes to the direction of history?

The Ming Dynasty, the Han Empire, which had been glorious for more than 200 years, was only more than ten years away from its demise in history. At this moment, this dying empire full of holes is still moving towards a terrible ending of complete collapse and destruction step by step. The Han people across the country will usher in the darkest fallen moment in Chinese history when they shave their hair and change their clothes.

So what should I do to truly change the tragic fate of the Chinese and Han people? Instead of being like this tragic famous general Qi Jin, it can only become a burial object for the Ming Dynasty.
