The emperor would rather have a

Chapter 13 The one who killed Zhang Yuanhui in battle was Li Yi, the inner palace guard!
"Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed immediately!"

Chai Rong led his personal guards to the front of the battle and personally supervised the battle despite the flying arrows.

This kind of situation tests a leader's courage, but Zhou Shizong Chai Rong is a person who does not believe in evil.

He wanted to fight with Liu Chong to see who would have the last laugh... Later generations always talked about how much effort Zhao Kuangyin made in the Battle of Gaoping, and some even said that it was Zhao Da who helped Chai Rong stabilize the throne.

Let’s not talk about whether Zhao Kuangyin was the only one who fought in this battle, let alone whether his contribution was greater than that of Ma Renyu and Ma Quanyi who also fought desperately.

Just to talk about the role that Chai Rong played as an emperor, he braved the wind and arrows to personally go to the front line to boost morale.

Could it be that he is still no match for a low-level general?
I'm afraid that even Guo Wei might not dare to say such a big thing in public before he became emperor... There is really nothing to criticize about Chai Rong's ability as a monarch.

Li Yi subconsciously looked at a dark-faced man not far away.

Zhao Kuangyin, who was talking in a low voice with Zhang Yongde, seemed to sense something and looked up at Li Yi.

However, Li Yi had already retracted his gaze at this time. Zhao Kuangyin glanced around, his eyes stayed on Li Yi for a few seconds, frowned, and then looked away.

Afterwards, Zhao Kuangyin continued to talk with Zhang Yongde...but he could never have imagined that he was being targeted by a time traveler.

"Zhang Yuanhui, the commander of the Han cavalry and infantry, is here. Get out of the way if you don't want to die!"

At this moment, a loud shout suddenly rang out, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

The person who shouted was a Northern Han general on horseback holding a spear. Judging from his figure and attire, he looked very much like the general who broke through the Zhou army's right wing formation.

With his loud shout, everyone immediately knew who was coming.

Speaking of which, when watching costume dramas in his previous life, Li Yi always felt that people who shouted like this on the battlefield were really stupid!
Are you trying to show off here?
However, after the chaotic Five Dynasties and several years of military service, Li Yi changed many of his views.

Shouting like this on the battlefield may seem redundant, but it actually has a certain psychological deterrent effect.

Especially if the person shouting is a well-known and powerful general, the deterrent effect may be doubled.

And shouting it out can be considered as a kind of encouragement to yourself, similar to giving yourself courage...

As expected, after Zhang Yuanhui introduced himself, the morale of the Later Zhou army, which had been boosted by Chai Rong, seemed to be suppressed again.

After all, the enemy was a powerful force who had defeated their own right-wing army. It would be a lie for everyone to say that they were not afraid.

Moreover, Zhang Yuanhui led more than a thousand cavalrymen to rush into the Later Zhou army like a tornado, with an momentum of a thousand cavalrymen sweeping across a plain, which was a real sense of oppression.

If he really rushed in front of the emperor's procession, Chai Rong would be in danger...

At this moment, someone shouted, "The strongest general of the Han army is coming. Who will meet him for Your Majesty?"

The person who shouted this didn't rush forward himself, but instead instigated others to go forward. How fucking cunning!
but--

Li Yi has been waiting for this great opportunity...it came at the right time!

"If the imperial carriage is under attack, what use would there be for us?" He shouted, "I shall die for Your Majesty today!"

Immediately, Li Yi rode out first and rushed towards Zhang Yuanhui at lightning speed.

The dozens of riders from the second squad of the Left Guard under his command followed without hesitation.

Perhaps it was Li Yi's bravery and fearlessness that inspired everyone, and the morale of the various troops in the Palace Front Army was instantly boosted.

Following closely behind was Ma Renyu, who shouted, "If the lord humiliates me, I will die!" and then ran away with his men.

"The safety of the country depends on this!"

"Although the thief is powerful, I will capture him!"

"..."

The shouts that came one after another were like a volcanic eruption, immediately igniting the entire guard force.

It has to be said that war is sometimes like herding sheep. Once there is a leader to lead the way, everyone can unleash amazing potential.

Zhang Yuanhui, who was charging left and right as if in an empty space, did not expect that the Zhou cavalry could organize such a powerful counterattack.

Especially the young general who was leading the way. He was so strong and powerful that he looked like a small mountain when he sat on his horse. He actually gave him an inexplicable sense of oppression.

However, Zhang Yuanhui had been in the battlefield for more than ten years and had seen all kinds of scenes. While he was fighting on the battlefield, the young general on the opposite side might still be peeing and playing in the mud.

You are a young boy who doesn't know his own limitations!
Zhang Yuanhui's fighting spirit instantly rose, and he spurred his horse to rush forward, and the personal soldiers around him also rushed forward.

And the young general who was peeing and playing in the mud in Zhang Yuanhui's eyes was Li Yi.

At this moment, Li Yi put everything behind him. There was no Zhou Shizong Chai Rong, nor was there Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin. There was only one obsession left in his heart: to achieve great things, today!
"roll!"

The first person Li Yi faced was not Zhang Yuanhui himself, but several personal soldiers who were rushing in the front.

He slightly turned sideways to avoid the tip of one of the men's spear, then used his spear to knock the man off his horse.

Li Yi used a spear that was ten feet long, with an iron spear head and a wooden spear shaft. The wood was extremely tough jujube wood. The spear shaft was much thicker than an ordinary spear, so it was naturally more durable.

Of course, it is also heavier than an ordinary spear, so it is not difficult to knock a person off his horse.

At the same time, after Li Yi had dealt with one of his personal guards, the remaining personal guards, driven by the inertia of their horses, had already passed him and joined the second squad of the Left Guards. Li Yi didn't care whether his men behind him could stop the personal guards.

At this moment, he was rushing too fast, which was equivalent to facing the Northern Han cavalry alone. It was unrealistic to brake suddenly or retreat, so he could only continue to rush forward with the determination to die.

"Ding!" "Ding!" "Ding!"

In an instant, three arrows hit Li Yi in succession. Two of them were deflected by the armor, and one was stuck in the gap between the armor on his shoulder, but he didn't feel any pain and didn't know whether his skin was injured.

He looked up and saw that some of the enemy cavalry were shooting arrows with bows, but because they were shooting while riding, their power and accuracy were not very good.

"Damn it, let's fight..."

A fierce force surged in Li Yi's heart, and he immediately raised his gun and stabbed. With a "swish", the tip of the gun pierced into the armor of a personal soldier, and it seemed that there was a sound of piercing the flesh.

But sadly, the tip of the gun seemed to have pierced too deep and got stuck, and even when I pulled hard, I couldn't get it out.

What's even funnier is that with the help of the impact force of the warhorse, Li Yi actually lifted the man off the horse.

From a distance, it looked like he was holding a human-shaped flag, which was extremely exaggerated.

What the hell is this called?
This is called innate supernatural power!
However, although it sounds like a long process, it actually happened in a flash.

Li Yi killed two riders in a row, and Zhang Yuanhui also rushed to him on horseback, and the long spear in the opponent's hand hit him in the face.

Li Yi decisively threw the spear and the man on it to the ground, and instantly drew out the iron mace hanging on his waist to block Zhang Yuanhui's long spear.

Fortunately, his hand speed was fast enough. If he hadn't been able to pull out the iron mace to block in time, his handsome face would have been stabbed to pieces.

When Zhang Yuanhui's first attack failed, he swung his spear and attacked again. As a veteran in battle, he had great martial arts and horse-controlling skills, and he launched wave after wave of attacks in a short period of time.

But Li Yi is not a pushover either. His body seems to be born for battle. It is not only strong but also flexible.

He immediately fell on the horse's back to avoid Zhang Yuanhui's attack. At the same time, he swung the iron mace in his hand quickly and smashed it hard at the hind legs of the opponent's horse.

"Dangdang!"

Following a scream from the horse, Zhang Yuanhui fell heavily to the ground along with his horse.

"General Jie!" "..."

Zhang Yuanhui's personal soldiers were all horrified.

Putting aside the bond between the commander-in-chief and his personal soldiers, it would be difficult for the personal soldiers if the commander-in-chief died in battle. If they returned alive, they would inevitably be beheaded.

Immediately, some of the personal soldiers rushed over and dismounted to check on Zhang Yuanhui's condition.

The rest of the people launched a crazy attack on Li Yi. Even if he was born with supernatural powers, he could not withstand so many people.

Seeing that Li Yi was about to collapse, his men finally arrived in time and relieved a lot of the pressure for him.

"Brother Yi, I'm here to help you!"

At this time, the other members of the Palace Army also caught up, and the one who bravely took the lead was Ma Renyu. This guy was also very fierce, and he knocked down a Northern Han cavalryman in just a few moves.

But just when Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief, some bastard hit the front leg of the warhorse under him.

The horse neighed and knelt forward. Fortunately, Li Yi reacted quickly and took protective action immediately.

But even so, he was still knocked unconscious and almost couldn't breathe.

Li Yi staggered to his feet and wanted to see which idiot had attacked him.

But looking around, the counterattack of the Later Zhou army had caused the Northern Han army to lose its composure, and the troops of both sides were entangled in a fierce battle.

At the same time, the fierce north wind weakened and gradually began to turn into a south wind. Just like the situation on the battlefield, the Later Zhou army quickly gained the upper hand.

The cavalry and infantry of the Northern Han were defeated one after another, with signs of collapse.

Moreover, many people in the Northern Han army saw the scene of Zhang Yuanhui falling off his horse just now, and the morale of the enemy was also hit, and everyone was only concerned about escaping.

In this situation, it is indeed unlikely for Li Yi to find out who is plotting against him.

However, at this moment, he glanced and found that Zhang Yuanhui did not seem to have been killed by the fall. He was being helped by several personal soldiers to mount a horse and prepare to run away.

Fuck! How can this be tolerated?

I risked my life just to kill you. How could I let you go when the spoils are about to be in my hands?
Li Yi quickly drew out the sword from his waist that he used to harvest heads, and rushed forward... After chopping down those personal soldiers, he pulled Zhang Yuanhui off his horse.

It seemed that the other party fell quite hard, much more seriously than Li Yi. After being pulled off the horse, he fell sideways to the ground.

Li Yi didn't care about that. With a "swish", he raised his sword and sent the man to see Liu Zhiyuan, the founding emperor of the Later Han Dynasty.

Then, he lifted Zhang Yuanhui's head above his head and shouted:

"The one who killed Zhang Yuanhui in battle was Li Yi, the inner palace guard!"
