Chapter 4434 Captured alive
Fang Jun is not a saint, and he is willing to pursue fame and fortune, but the "fame and fortune" in his eyes are different from what the world knows. But in any case, he is not a "person who has escaped from vulgar taste", so at this moment, he is Staring at the wind and rain not far away, hunting for tricks He raised the banner of the King of Jin, his heart was burning, and he charged away with more than a thousand armored cavalry without hesitation. As long as he could capture the King of Jin alive or kill him on the spot, then Fang Jun would be the biggest contributor to ending this mutiny, which would be enough. It will shine through history and be famous for generations to come.
With such achievements right in front of you, who can remain indifferent?
The soldiers, troops, and officers around him were also aware of such a God-given opportunity to be promoted. Although they didn't understand why King Jin risked his life and went into battle personally, since it happened, there was no need to say anything. , you must rush forward and take it down.
Everyone understands the principle of "If you don't get what God gives you, you will take the blame"...
Fang Jun took the lead, followed closely by the cavalry behind him. He flew through the wind and rain like lightning, and instantly crossed half of the battlefield from the palace wall on the side of Wudemen, rushing like a wolf and tiger towards the place where the banner of King Jin was.
When he got closer, he saw the Jin King's banner moving towards Wudemen. Fang Jun was not in a hurry. He rushed straight towards the position commanded by Li Daozong. The horse in his palm successively lifted the spear erected diagonally in front of him. Flying, the horse's hoofs as big as bowls have stepped into the enemy's formation. The strong body of the war horse directly knocked away the soldiers holding shields in front of them, and rushed into the enemy's formation.
More than a thousand cavalry followed closely, following Fang Jun into the enemy's formation, tearing a gap in the relatively tight position, and then rushed forward crazily along the gap, easily cutting through the enemy's formation and reaching Li Daozong's front.
Fang Jun's upper body was tightly crouched on the horse's back, and the horse's spurs were flying in all directions. There was no enemy in front of him. As he rushed towards Li Daozong, he shouted in a deep voice: "Quickly dismount and surrender, and I will spare your life!"< br>
The soldiers around him echoed in unison: "Dismount and surrender, I will spare your life!"
The sound echoed in the wide area between the two palaces, and there was a faint echo, and the momentum was overwhelming.
Li Daozong stood solemnly on his horse, with an expressionless face. Although he had just escaped from Fang Jun's men, he did not show any fear, but there was a bit of helplessness in his deep eyes.
He and Fang Jun have always been close and had a good friendship, but now they are each fighting for their own lives, but who is to blame for this? In order to fulfill Emperor Taizong's last wish, he raised an army to depose Li Chengqian, while Fang Jun tried his best to keep the empire upright and support the country. It is impossible to say who is wrong and who is right, but the positions are clearly opposite. Either you die or I die.
Looking at the unstoppable charge of the armored cavalry, Li Daozong raised his sword in the air, glared angrily and shouted: "Guard His Highness King Jin, fight to the death with me!"
"Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"
All the soldiers and soldiers around knew that this was a critical moment of life and death. If the armored cavalry could not be stopped and King Jin was captured or killed, then the mutiny would definitely end, and everyone on King Jin's side would be liquidated afterwards. , not only Li Daozong, Yu Chigong and others will be deprived All middle and lower-level officers, and even ordinary soldiers may be implicated in titles, withdrawal from official positions, disasters for the whole family, and disasters for descendants. If not, they may have to be sent into exile for three thousand miles to those smoky and desert lands to fight for the Tang Dynasty. The empire expands its territory and joins forces with the barbarians...
Whether to support the King of Jin to usurp the throne or to protect the Emperor and maintain Zhengshuo, these middle- and lower-level officers and soldiers had no choice at all, but they could make the decision at critical moments when they fought tooth and nail for the happiness of themselves and their families.
At this moment, I made up my mind to fight to the death.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty never lacked bravery. As long as they were determined, it was never difficult to fight to the death...
However, what is indispensable in war is the will to die. When two armies meet, the brave will win, but the will to win alone does not guarantee victory.
Even though firearms receive the most attention among Youtun Guards, the armored cavalry have never been left idle. Instead, they have been trained rigorously as the main force. They have even conquered the barbarian countries in the north and west. Regardless of the weapons and equipment, the quality of the soldiers, and Their tactical literacy is among the best in the world today, and they can be called the elite among the elite. Now that they have recovered some of their physical strength after getting some rest, they are rampaging and rushing forward like a torrent of steel, unstoppable.
One side was determined to die, and its morale was high and fearless. The other side launched an extreme charge and drove straight into the iron hoofs. The battle reached fever pitch in an instant. The rebels resisted the charging iron hoofs with their flesh and blood, and were crushed and trampled by the iron hoofs. Under the heavy rain, corpses lay on pillows and rivers of blood flowed, but it failed to stop the armored cavalry in the slightest.
Fang Jun took the lead and rushed straight into the rebel position. The horse in his palm cut a bloody path and took Li Daozong directly.
Li Daozong knew that he was outmatched, so he did not insist on deciding the outcome one on one. Instead, he called on the left rear soldiers to form a formation, forming a temporary battle formation with the word "concave", allowing Fang Jun to break into it, and then Li Daozong He resisted with all his strength, quickly shrinking his sides towards the middle, surrounding Fang Jun, trying to kill him with the combined strength of everyone.
Fang Jun was not afraid and turned a blind eye to the enemy's pocket formation. He danced his horse forward bravely and took Li Daozong directly with the horse in his palm. Several rebels on the left and right retracted and thrust their spears into Fang Jun's body. The mountain armor forged from fine steel clattered to protect his vitals, making him invulnerable.
Only then did the rebels realize that the mountain armor on their opponent was different from usual. They quickly retracted their spears and tried to attack Fang Jun's horse, but it was too late. Fang Jun's soldiers rushed from both sides to protect his wings, and fought with him. The rebels are fighting.
Fang Jun didn't care at all about the rebels attacking from both sides. He only had Li Daozong in his eyes. He drove his horse so fast that he stabbed Li Daozong in front of him.
Li Daozong didn't dare to fight, but he had no way to retreat. He could only grit his teeth and hit the horse, twisting his body, and hit Fang Jun's horse's pole with all his strength with the weapon in his hand, trying to block this attack in a way that avoided the truth and the weak. hit.
However, Fang Jun was born with supernatural power. Although the blow was blocked, the huge force coming from the pole made Li Daozong's hands numb. His previously injured left hand even cracked again. The pain was heartbreaking. The two horses were in the wrong stirrups. Fang Jun The old trick was repeated, just like in the previous battle, the horse swept across and went straight to Li Daozong's back.
Li Daozong also guarded against this hand, holding the spear in his hand upright and placing it on the left side of his waist. With the help of his arms, waist, and left leg, he tried to block the opponent's sweeping blow.
The horse came roaring with wind and thunder, and with a muffled "dang" sound, it hit the upright spear hard. The handle of the spear could not bear the force. Although it was not broken, it bent inward and hit Li Daozong. Li Daozong groaned. Half of his body was numb, and he was about to ride forward to avoid Fang Jun's pursuit. Unexpectedly, Fang Jun hit him with one blow. However, Zhong did not pull back the horse, but followed the momentum of the two horses staggering and dragged the horse horizontally. The sharp blade of the horse passed through the barrel of the spear and cut on the armor around Li Daozong's waist and on the iron armor. It crossed and swept across the war horse's butt, immediately cutting a deep blood groove and blood gushing out instantly.
The war horse looked up in pain and frightened and hissed loudly. Although the trained war horse would not completely lose control after being injured, it still subconsciously took a few steps forward because of the unbearable pain. However, at this time, the two horses were in the wrong stirrup, which was equivalent to an exchange. Position, the war horse rushed forward and ran right into Fang Jun's soldiers...
Seeing Li Daozong approaching, all the soldiers' eyes turned red. Where is the Prince of Jiangxia and the Honorable Minister of Zhenguan here? This is simply the merit of walking! As long as he is captured, no matter life or death, the family will be rich for three generations.
Suddenly, more than a dozen weapons stabbed from the front, left, and right. Although Li Daozong was wearing armor, he was not invulnerable. If a weapon penetrated the gap between the armor leaves, he would not be able to bear it, so he hurriedly scrambled for a while. He resisted, but even so he was stabbed several times, with a hole in his thigh and blood flowing profusely.
Fang Jun also got into the siege of Li Daozong's soldiers, but he did not stray into the enemy formation like Li Daozong because his horse was frightened. There was still some distance between him and his horse. While forcing the enemy back, he turned around and turned around. Came behind Li Daozong.
After all, the two have a close personal relationship. At this moment, they are each fighting for their own masters. However, if there is a chance to capture the other alive, they will not kill them ruthlessly.
Fang Junzong immediately stepped forward, turned his horse around, and struck Li Daozong on the back with the pole. The sound of the pole breaking through the air rang in Li Daozong's ears, and he was horrified. However, more than a dozen weapons came in front of him like a violent storm. Where can I take care of my back?
The pole hit the armor on his back with a muffled "pop" sound. Li Daozong felt as if he had been hit by a running bull. He couldn't hold his breath in his chest. His vision went black for a while, and he fell forward involuntarily. Fortunately, I had my left back free to hold on to the horse's reins, and was not knocked off the horse.
Fang Jun succeeded with one blow. When the horse moved forward, he handed the horse's pole to his left hand. He reached out with his right hand and grabbed the silk ribbon of Li Daozhong's waist. With a struggle of arms, he lifted Li Daozhong off the horse and rode back. This formation.
Li Daozong regained his breath at this time and found that he had been captured alive by Fang Jun. He had spent half his life in the army and had made countless achievements. How had he ever suffered such humiliation? He was so angry that he screamed and danced, trying to get rid of Fang Jun's control. However, the next moment he felt a cloud and mist and got rid of Fang Jun's control. However, Fang Jun let go and threw him to the ground. He fell to the ground with a "bang" and was about to He cursed loudly, and the muddy water splashed on the ground covered his face. He was choked and coughed violently and couldn't speak. Then, he was pinned to the ground by seven or eight soldiers, as if they were bowing to the ground, and then tied up.
Li Daozong couldn't break free, and another piece of rag was stuffed into his mouth. He could only close his eyes and say nothing, and let him be dealt with.
Fang Jun glanced at Li Daozong who was tied up and ordered: "Keep him in custody and keep him alive, there must be no surprises!"
"Here!"
Several soldiers lifted Li Daozong onto the back of a war horse, and more than ten people surrounded him to prevent him from escaping and to prevent accidents among the rebels.
Fang Jun then turned his horse around, led his cavalry to disperse Li Daozong's central army and personal soldiers, and followed Li Zhi into Wudemen. (End of chapter)
