Chapter 179 confrontation
Li Xu's arrow came too fast. Although Lin Ruhai had extraordinary eyesight, he had no time to avoid it. He just shouted subconsciously, but suddenly felt the sound of wind above his head, and a bright red tassel fell down from his eyes.
It turned out that Li Xu's arrow was shot at the high helmet tassel above Lin Ruhai's head.
Lin Ruhai breathed a sigh of relief, but his face instantly turned from white to black, from black to blue, and his eyes were blazing fire at the arrogant little thief with a sarcastic expression on his face opposite him.
"The little thief is looking for death!"
Lin Ruhai screamed in anger, and the three thousand personal soldiers around him were also furious. They raised their weapons and screamed to tear Li Xu to pieces and avenge Lin Shuai.
Li Xu on the opposite side was unmoved and sneered: "Old guy, I respect you for many years, and it is not easy to get to this level now. I don't know my life or death. It's not easy for me to lead troops to fight at the age of my life. So I only shot off your helmet. If you dare to quarrel, I will be merciless when I go to the ground."
"Think about it, if I shoot you with one arrow, at most I will not be the bullshit general. The court is now in trouble. When using people, I will probably not send anyone to arrest me. If it is for a bad old man like you, the court will probably not want to. But if you die, then the 50,000 troops will fall apart, and this time the counter-rebellion will probably be miscarried. And you may know more about what the Lin family will end up. You may know more than me. You have been so powerful in recent years, but there will definitely be many enemies. If the court does not need to take action, then those people will chew your Lin family to the point of not being left."
"You said you are old but you can't get along with me, a junior. I have no grudges with your Lin family, but both of you father and son want to dislike me. Do you want to bully me? I have to take the initiative to put your face up and beat you? People respect me, I respect others. But if people shamelessly insist on coming over and letting me beat you, then I have to be polite."
After saying that, with a wave of his hand, five hundred cavalry quickly bypassed Li Xu and made preparations for fighting in front of him.
There were also clanging footsteps behind him, but Zhao Husheng brought 1,500 infantrymen from the infantry camp to line up, with swords and guns as if they were like forests, bowstrings were tight, arrows were moving forward, and they also made an attacking posture towards the opposite side.
When Lin Ruhai heard Li Xu's words, he watched as the two thousand people under his command dared to list offensive formations in front of his tens of thousands of troops. He had only one thought in his mind:
"This little thief is crazy!"
Lawless!
No scruples!
Unscrupulous!
This little thief dared to attack his tens of thousands of troops. It was incredible and unreasonable.
Lin Ruhai's face turned blue and white, and he was afraid to put down his raised right arm for a long time.
He came quickly and got used to others' obedience to his words and meticulously. In the army, anyone who dared to violate his military orders would be dealt with by military law.
The reputation of Lin Ruhai was not obtained by killing the enemy alone, but also by his extremely strict management of the army.
Therefore, he had long developed the domineering character of being the only one in the army, but today he was repeatedly provoked by small juniors in the army, which really made him want to kill.
Li Xu naturally understood what he was doing.
It is impossible to commit suicide. If he were alone, he would probably have run away long ago.
If a person fights tens of thousands of troops, no one who has no brains will do it.
But it would be a completely different matter if two thousand people were in hand.
Lin Ruhai’s 50,000 army has a complex source, and there are many factions, so it is not a one-minded person.
Li Xu believed that if the two armies really had a conflict, at most, only a half of these people would follow Lin Ruhai.
And most of the people who followed him were just pretending to be paddling.
The two thousand people on his side have 100% trust and loyalty to him. Not to mention that Li Xu is there, even if Li Xu is gone, these two thousand men will fight to the end of the battle.
What's more, although Lin Ruhai was surrounded by a group of personal soldiers, he was still within Li Xu's range when facing Li Xu's snail.
The arrow that Li Xu shot Lin Ruhai’s Helmet just now did not even use his heroic skills.
If the conflict between the two armies really begins, he has absolute confidence to kill Lin Ruhai as soon as possible.
As long as Lin Ruhai dies, his men will definitely not last long.
In addition, Lin Ruhai's expedition must be in danger this time, and Tan Lun and Shi Dakai had already set up pockets for him and were waiting for him.
This time, his expedition was just like his son Lin Yi's last expedition, and he was destined to go but never return.
So Li Xu looks reckless, but in fact he is confident.
The so-called barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes. When Li Xu was stunned, Lin Ruhai was indeed in a situation of being unable to get rid of a tiger.
If he retreats, his reputation will definitely be seriously damaged.
However, if there is no stalemate, the more time goes by, the closer the two armies will become, the more likely it is to have the risk of accidental fire and eventually leading to a full-scale conflict.
After all, he just wanted to scare and humiliate Li Xu, but he didn't expect that this little thief would dare to directly raise his troops to fight, which was something he would never have imagined.
Time passed little by little, and the sun had risen to its mid-sky position.
The soldiers on both sides had fine beads of sweat on their faces, but they did not dare to move, for fear that if an inadvertent action would cause misunderstandings from the other party, causing large-scale fire and conflict.
Lin Ruhai's hair and hair were all white, and he became a little dazed under the scorching sun.
But looking at the sneer on the face of the hateful little thief opposite, he could only continue to insist on keeping his posture upright.
Although Lin Ruhai was willing to give in, he didn't want to give in first.
If he took a step back first, after this incident spread, Lin Ruhai, the Duke of Ningguo, would have become a joke.
It is not only a joke in the Qin army and in the court, but it can even become a joke in the eyes of all people in the world.
Those enemies who had been defeated by him would also mock him for this.
Lin Ruhai can persevere, and Li Xu can of course persevere.
He is not as good as Lin Ruhai, but he is wearing a thin and breathable summer clothes. In addition, he is good at physical fitness and is not afraid of the heat at all.
At this moment, a man suddenly shouted: "Duke Ningguo is calm and listen to me."
Everyone relaxed their expressions, and when they looked around, a civil servant in green robe rushed over from behind.
This person is naturally Liu Jian.
