"The strategist instructed that if this is discovered,"
"We then retreated into the woods, and they couldn't catch up with us."
Li Kui laughed and said, "If you don't even dare to fight government troops face to face?"
"If we just go back like this, won't we be laughed at by our brothers?"
"Besides, my brother promised me he'd be a vanguard,"
"It is not against military orders for me to lead the first battle."
Li Gun, also eager to earn merit, chimed in,
"Brother Tie Niu is right, saying more would be pointless,"
"There are other brothers waiting to provide backup."
"Kill!"
Li Kui didn't wait for Xiang Chong to speak.
He shouted and rushed out.
Xiang Chong saw this,
So he had no choice but to rush out as well.
The soldiers in the rear naturally followed closely behind.
Hao Siwen has already called in archers.
Seeing that there was indeed an ambush, he waved his hand and said...
"Fire arrows."
Gave an order,
Archers then began to fire arrows toward the edge of the forest.
Seeing this, Xiang Chong and Li Gun quickly stepped forward to protect Li Kui.
Fortunately, the arrows were not densely packed.
The two players played well together.
The three leaders, however, were completely unharmed.
The other soldiers in the regiment were also mostly uninjured.
Hao Siwen was also taken aback when he saw that almost no one had fallen to the arrows.
Although thousands of arrows were fired at once
There weren't many arrows left for each person.
But the momentum of a volley of arrows
It's still quite intimidating.
It's quite difficult to block all the arrows.
After two volleys of arrows,
Li Kui and his men suffered almost no casualties.
But it was about to reach them.
Seeing this, Hao Siwen quickly shouted,
"Archers retreat, spearmen advance."
Seven or eight out of ten soldiers in the Northern Song army were archers.
The rest were spearmen.
Good protection for archers,
It also prevented the cavalry from charging.
The government troops quickly set up a gun emplacement at the front.
Li Kui saw that the soldiers had stopped firing arrows.
He no longer cared about Xiang Chong, who had just covered for him.
He charged straight towards the officers' and soldiers' ranks.
Hao Siwen saw Li Kui's ferocious face.
With his robust build, he couldn't help but laugh.
Everyone says the heroes of Liangshan are incredibly powerful,
"So he's nothing more than a filthy country bumpkin..."
Chapter 1480 Ambush?
"Shangguan Hun, you will lead one hundred cavalrymen to attack the flank of the Liangshan bandits,"
"After breaking through, we circled around to the front of the forest,"
"To prevent the Liangshan bandits from sneaking back into the forest."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Hun
He then mustered a hundred soldiers and led them to flank the battalion commander.
Seeing the cavalry charging towards them, Li Gun hurriedly shouted.
"Brother Tie Niu, the government troops include cavalry,"
"If we delay any longer, we may not be able to withdraw."
Li Kui, however, acted as if he hadn't heard.
They charged straight at the spearmen in front.
"kill!"
The spearmen in the front rank saw Li Kui charging towards them.
They shouted and together raised their spears to thrust at Li Kui.
Li Kui saw four or five spears thrusting towards him.
But he grinned.
With a sudden sweep of his axe,
He then cut all the spears in half.
Then he continued to charge at the several spearmen.
The spearmen in the front row saw that Li Kui was coming so fiercely.
He quickly slipped behind him.
The second rank of spearmen stepped forward.
Several more spears thrust towards Li Kui.
Li Kui chopped the spear in half with another axe blow.
They had already reached the spearmen.
Wielding his axe, he felled several men.
Then they crashed into the formation.
They began to hack and slash indiscriminately.
The soldiers behind them also took the opportunity to rush into the formation and fight.
Hao Siwen hadn't expected Li Kui to be so ferocious.
Seeing that the soldiers couldn't stop Li Kui,
He rode closer,
He thrust his spear at Li Kui.
Li Kui was just about to claim his reward for his meritorious service and buy wine to eat.
They were overjoyed to see the officers and soldiers arriving.
He swung his axe at Hao Siwen's steel spear.
Hao Siwen saw Li Kui swing his axe at him.
He pulled his arm back.
Sheathed his spear and dodged Li Kui's axe.
Then, with lightning speed, another spear pierced Li Kui's chest.
Li Kui missed with his left-hand axe strike.
Hao Siwen thrust his spear at him again.
He quickly grabbed the axe in his right hand and swung it down again.
Hao Siwen watched Li Kui wield his double axes.
The moves will naturally not become outdated.
The spear was sheathed again.
Li Kui missed with both of his axe blows.
It then became an crossed arms.
He held the axe to his chest.
Hao Siwen looked at Li Kui's clumsy appearance,
He couldn't help but burst into laughter.
This dark-skinned man was just a brute;
And not afraid of death,
He's definitely a master at charging into battle.
But if he encounters a skilled general, he can easily defeat him.
Li Kui saw Hao Siwen laughing at him.
He couldn't help but yell and scream in anger.
He brandished his axe and began to chop at Hao Siwen's horse's legs.
Lee Gun caught up at this moment.
Hao Siwen is highly skilled in martial arts.
He quickly grabbed Li Kui and said,
"This guy is highly skilled in martial arts, let's retreat quickly!"
"Otherwise, we won't be able to leave,"
"The brothers behind were scattered by the cavalry."
"If we suffer heavy losses,"
"After becoming the chieftain, how could I let my brother be the vanguard again!"
Li Kui turned around and saw a group of card players being knocked away by government soldiers and cavalry.
Hearing Li Gun say this again,
He hurriedly shouted,
"Retreat! Everyone retreat!"
Having said that, he turned and charged into the ranks of the soldiers beside him.
