Chapter 0002: Brave Li Sanlang
Li Yu looked into the distance and saw long spears standing in rows, flashing cold light. Even in summer, he could feel a hint of coldness. The black line in the distance was moving slowly, and even Li Yu could see the other party's appearance.
It's finally coming. Li Yu tightened his belt. He held a sword in his hand. Although it was not a well-refined sword , it was also very impressive.
"Third Master, the enemy is coming." Li Gu's voice came from the side. He was holding a big iron hammer in his hand. He was tall and didn't even ride a warhorse. He was wearing iron armor and holding an iron hammer, looking like a ferocious beast. There were also a hundred armored cavalrymen around him. They were the elite selected by Li Zixiong to protect Li Yu.
"Be careful." Li Yu looked at the army that was roaring towards him, endlessly. His eyes suddenly widened. The infantry that was originally roaring towards him suddenly left a huge gap, and teams of them rushed over. These cavalrymen were all wearing dark green armor, like giant beasts. The horses' four hooves trampled the ground, and the ground was shaking.
"Heavy cavalry."
Li Yu knew that the most powerful cavalry of the Sui Dynasty was this kind of armored cavalry, that is, the heavy armored cavalry of this era, but he did not expect it to appear here. Li Yu immediately knew that this war would be lost.
"Li Gu, follow me later and don't run around." Li Yu turned around and reminded.
"Archers, shoot." The voice of the central army came from behind. Li Yu knew without listening that it was Yang Xuanting's voice, and that he was now Yang Xuanting's subordinate.
There were bursts of clanging sounds coming from the distance. Arrows shot at the heavily armored cavalry, but did not hurt them at all. Only a small number of arrows hit the infantry in the rear army, killing them.
"Shield bearers, go ahead." Yang Xuanting's command came again. Not far in front of Li Yu, rows of shield bearers appeared, and rows of spearmen rested on their shields. They were used to resist cavalry, but they could definitely not resist heavy armor.
Li Yu's eyes were like lightning as he stared at the approaching heavy cavalry. There was a loud bang, and the heavy cavalry hit the shield. The heavy cavalry fell to the ground with a bang, but the shield bearer in front was also knocked away by the huge force and fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. He was deader than dead.
Soon, another heavy cavalryman came over and knocked the spearman away. The cavalryman's long sword swept across, and the surrounding spearmen were killed before they could react. Li Yu suddenly felt a pair of cold and ruthless eyes staring at him.
"Kill." Li Yu felt his adrenaline rushing, as if he was back on the battlefield in Africa. He clamped his legs on the warhorse, which neighed and rushed forward, raising the sword in his hand. There was a huge sound of metal clashing, and a body flew back, while another body shook continuously.
"Third Young Master." Li Gu on this side raised the hammer in his hand and smashed the head of a war horse in front of him to pieces. He quickly rushed to Li Yu and protected Li Yu with the guards behind him.
The cavalry on the opposite side had long disappeared , leaving only an armored warhorse standing there. The cavalryman was also hit by the huge force and flew back, but he was not as lucky as Li Yu. He was soon trampled by the warhorse behind him and died a miserable death.
"Kill them and kill Wei Xuan." Li Yu took a deep breath. He saw a big banner in the distance. Under the banner there was an old man directing the battle. It must be Wei Xuan. He gripped his sword tightly and led the hundred men around him to kill towards the central army.
At this time, Li Yu felt that his body was filled with infinite power. The sword weighing twenty or thirty kilograms had no weight at all in his hand. He swung it in his hand, and all the enemies in front of him were killed. They had no power to resist at all.
Beside him, Li Gu let out bursts of angry roars. Every time he swung the hammer, an enemy on the opposite side was killed. The guards around him protected the two of them in the middle.
Although the heavy cavalry on the opposite side was powerful, they had no power to resist under Li Yu's sword. In terms of defense, Li Yu was wearing a fiery red Kirin armor, and it was difficult for bows and arrows to break through the defense of the armor. In terms of strength, they were no match for Li Yu. With the collision of swords and spears, Li Yu relied on his powerful strength to forge a path through the heavy cavalry.
"Good. What a great Li Sanlang!" A cheer came.
Li Yu looked over and saw a tall figure holding a spear and riding a tall horse. Who else could it be but Yang Xuanting.
Relying on his own strength, he used infantry to fight against heavy armored cavalry. With one sword, he actually chopped the opponent away, which shows how brave the opponent is. Yang Xuanting thought of his brother Yang Xuangan, who was also a brave man, holding a spear, wearing armor and holding sharp weapons, invincible, and with the courage of a overlord.
"General, be careful." Li Yu was about to answer when his expression suddenly changed . The sword in his hand flew out, a gust of wind flew in front of Yang Xuanting, and a sound of metal clashing rang out. In the distance, a sharp arrow and a sword fell to the ground at the same time.
Seeing this, Yang Xuanting broke out in cold sweat. If Li Yu hadn't rescued him, the arrow would probably have hit him.
"Good boy, do you dare to fight again?" Yang Xuanting looks very similar to Yang Xuangan, and even their actions are similar. They both like to charge into battle. Seeing Li Yu so brave, he likes him very much.
"Why not?" Li Yu picked up the sword on the ground and jumped on his horse.
"Okay, attack." Yang Xuanting laughed and rode up on his horse. The spear in his hand was flying, and an armored cavalryman not far away was stabbed to death by the opponent. The armor on his body was no match for the opponent's spear. It was like stabbing a piece of tofu, very easy.
He knew that this was not a real spear but a lance, a weapon often used by nobles of this era. It was a very sharp weapon, but it took two or three years to make a lance, so not everyone could afford it. Only nobles like Yang Xuanting could use it. Li Zixiong also had a lance and even taught Li Yu how to use it, but at this time, Li Yu preferred to use a knife.
Open and close vigorously, with great force and power, this is the weapon .
He stepped on his horse and it galloped away. In Yang Xuanting's surprised eyes, he swung his sword to block the enemy's spear and chopped it out, cutting the enemy and his armor into two pieces, and even cutting off his intestines.
Yang Xuan opened his mouth wide, he didn't expect Li Yu's power to be so great.
"I'm afraid even Yuwen Tianbao, Lai Huer and others are no match for him! Li Zixiong's son is so brave, why didn't we know about it before?" The Yuwen Tianbao mentioned by Yang Xuanting actually refers to Yuwen Chengdu of the Yuwen family, who was named General Tianbao and was a fierce general of the court. Lai Huer and others were also fierce generals of the court. Of course, at this time, the most powerful general of the Sui Dynasty was Yu Juluo.
The Yang family betrothed Yang Ruoxi to Li Yu because they were only interested in Li Zixiong's status and position. As for a son of a noble family like Li Yu, they were actually all the same and it didn't matter who he was betrothed to. Unexpectedly, at this time, Li Yu gave him a surprise.
