Chapter 101: Take the blood as the oath, the heaven and the earth as the proof
Li Ze once again witnessed how a unit that was fighting tenaciously quickly collapsed after the commander of the first army was killed. Chu Xuan only blocked Shi Zhuang's three swords. At the moment when the two horses intersected, Shi Zhuang's sword circled around him at an extremely strange angle, and then cut off Chu Xuan's head with one knife.
Li Ze opened his mouth wide in surprise. Tian Bo beside him was the same as him, and his two big eyes almost popped out of his eyes.
"Is this Shi Zhuang's real combat power?" Li Ze said to himself. "No, this shouldn't be counted. The weapon he used was a horse spear, not a sabre."
"It's so awesome." After a while, Li Ze heard Tian Bo's murmuring sigh.
Amid Tian Bo's sigh, Li Ze saw the surrounded Shenzhou army collapsed in an instant. The Shenzhou army, which was originally fighting tenaciously like desperate wolfs, immediately turned into a wild dog after Chu Yan was killed.
"Tian Bo, after the battle you have experienced before, will the main general lose all the courage to fight like the Shenzhou army in front of you?" Li Ze asked.
Tian Bo nodded: "It's almost the same. Young Master, the general is the courage of the army. Once the general is killed, the soldiers will lose their backbone. It is natural to lose their destruction. However, such things are rare. No matter what kind of battle it is, the generals are usually strictly protected. There are very few generals who will end up in person, unless they are facing a desperate situation and have to do it. In fact, at this time, this army is not far from failure."
Li Ze nodded: "Have you seen a brave general like Wanjun taking the general's head from it?"
Tian Bo blinked his eyes, as if he didn't understand what Li Ze meant.
"What I mean is that the two armies were evenly matched, but one of them was the generals who were brave enough to win the three armies, led a suicide squad, broke through the military formation and directly killed the opponent's main general, and then killed them with one sword, thus reversing the battlefield and achieving a great victory?" Li Ze added.
Tian Bo couldn't help laughing: "Young Master has read too many words? Those who are talking nonsense. If you don't say that, how interested are you to listen? How passionate! This is their trick to cheat people of money, and those who have never been on the battlefield at all."
"It's fake to say this!" Li Ze was a little disappointed: "Even people like Shi Zhuang are not good, right?"
"Of course not!" Tian Bo said straightforwardly. "Take our Jiedushi as an example. During the war, there will definitely be no less than five hundred to one thousand armored soldiers. Even if the battle reaches the most critical moment, there will never be five hundred people around him. If Shi Zhuang really wants to kill the 500 army formation. Even if those people stand there and ask him to cut, after cutting dozens of them, his knife will be broken, and his hands will be sore. The remaining people can easily take his life. Besides, on the real battlefield, there are swords and guns everywhere, and crossbows and arrows flying everywhere. Even a powerful general like Shi Zhuang, in the melee, he will use seven points to cut the enemy, and two points to guard against cold guns and cold arrows. The remaining one point is still the form of observation, and point at the army at any time!"
"I understand!" Li Ze nodded.
After the two of them talked about their son, the battle below had turned into a chase. Tu Lichun and others each snatched each other's horses and were chasing the soldiers and Henghai soldiers who were fleeing everywhere, while Shen Congxing and others commanded the large troops, lined up in formations, and oppressed the other's activity space.
When Li Ze led Tian Bo and some young men to the gentle slope of the battle, the battle was completely over.
Standing on the top of the slope, overlooking the entire battlefield, because of the final pursuit, the battlefield was a bit wider. Within the sight, blood-stained corpses, broken arms and limbs, broken or complete weapons were everywhere, and the most were blood, some were flowing into a depression, some were sprinkled in large areas. Not far from Li Ze, dozens of corpses were lying layer by layer around the broken wooden shields.
Li Ze stood up and found that he had overestimated his ability to bear it. After witnessing so many corpses and blood with his own eyes, his legs trembled slightly, and his hands couldn't help but clenched into fists, clenched very tightly, and his dantian was a little tight, which meant that he was a little anxious to pee.
I once imagined that I was immediately majestic on the battlefield where corpses were buried, but when I was truly in this scene, Li Ze found that he needed more time to accept such a scene.
A country of peace suddenly came to such a barbaric era where human life was like grass, and it always took time and time to truly integrate a person into this era.
Taking a deep breath, Li Ze tried hard to make himself look calmer. Because at this time, under the gentle slope, his generals and his soldiers were lined up in an orderly manner, waiting for his inspection.
Tu Lichun and Shi Zhuang stood in the front. Behind them were Shen Congxing, Chen Bing, Chu Sheng, Li Hao, Li Han and other twenty generals with armored helmets and armors. Later, they were secret camp soldiers.
The most, that is, the one in the last place, was the mansion soldiers recruited from this battle.
Li Ze could see the expressions of these people clearly.
The iron-armored generals at the front had a very calm face, even Li Hao, Li Han and Li Mi. The soldiers of the secret camp were very excited, but the young and strong people had different expressions. Some were excited, some were nervous, some were confused, some were panicked, and some were scared.
Li Ze could understand the feelings of these people. He just looked at it and was a little uncontrollable, and those people participated in the battle in person and might even kill people with their own hands.
This is the first time for them.
Killing people is different from slaughtering chickens and pigs. A kind person in the past suddenly started to slaughter and gun and killed a living person. There must be adverse reactions in his heart.
After Li Ze came here, he ordered people to be killed and saw people die in front of him, but it was still the first time he had seen them on a large scale.
But everything has its first time, and after experiencing it, you will gradually get used to it. This is the main theme of this era. In the history that Li Ze knew, the population has dropped by more than half. It is said that there are many corpses that have been used to use the Spring and Autumn style.
He stretched out his hand, and Tian Bo knew how to lift the banner beside him with the word Li embroidered by the word Li, and Li Ze raised it high.
"Victory!" He yelled loudly with all his strength.
After a moment of silence, twenty soldiers from the former secret camp raised their right arms high at the same time.
"victory!"
Li Ze waved the flag and shouted again: "Victory!"
This time, the two thousand soldiers behind finally raised their right arms and responded loudly to Li Ze's shout.
The roars of thousands of people shook the hundred-foot rocks, and gravel fell from the rocks, falling into the stream below, splashing water.
Li Ze waved the flag and walked steadily down the gentle slope. While walking, he waved the flag in his hand. Every time he waved it, he yelled at victory.
Every time his roar came, the sound of shook the clouds. Tian Bo tried hard to keep up with Li Ze's pace. He saw clearly that with the shouts of victory, the expressions of the young and strong, which were originally different, were slowly infected by the passion at present, and became fanatical little by little.
Li Ze finally walked to his soldiers. He grabbed the flag and inserted it beside him, holding the flagpole with one hand. A strong wind blew, spreading the banner of Li, making a sound.
"Today is our first battle and our starting point. We take victory as our starting point, and we will also become our end point with victory. From today on, this flag will lead you from one victory to another."
Shi Zhuang smiled, Shen Congxing showed ecstasy, Li Hao and Li Han and others showed excitement, this is Li Ze's declaration. If Li Ze had always thought about running away, escaping, and going to a place without disputes to live a leisurely life, then today's battle would have destined that he would never have a way out.
He has already stepped onto the stage.
Of course, Li Ze understood this. He bent down and picked up a short blade from the ground. He stroked his palm and blood oozed out. He applied the blood on the flag beside him.
"Swear blood!"
Shi Zhuang strode forward, took the short blade from Li Ze's hand, and also cut his palm, smearing blood on the flag. Tu Lichun, Shen Congfen, Li Hao, Li Han and others moved forward one by one, smearing his palm blood on the flag.
"Please take blood as an oath." They all knelt in front of Li Ze.
Three hundred secret camp soldiers knelt on one knee.
"Take blood as an oath, and be loyal to the young master forever, and never leave him until death!"
Two thousand young men kneeled down on one knee.
"Take blood as an oath, and be loyal to the young master forever, and never leave him until death!"
The sound of oath sounded in Li Ze's ears over and over again, which made him feel a little tears. These people will be his capital to leave this small countryside and the foundation on which he relies on.
"If you are rich and noble, don't forget each other. If you don't abandon me, I will not let you down." The roar of more than 2,000 people stopped abruptly. Li Ze also knelt down on one knee, pointing one hand to the sky and the other hand to the earth." As evidence, if you violate this oath, the sky will hit it, and the earth will destroy it, and the gods and ghosts will not tolerate it."
"Heaven and earth are proof!" More than two thousand people raised their weapons high towards the sky with one hand, clenched their fists tightly with the other hand, pointed at the ground, and shouted in unison.
Chapter completed!
