Chapter 42 Desperate
But some people are struggling coolly in desperate situations.
Xiao Xian was the most powerful among the southern warlords. When he was the most powerful in history, he had as many as 400,000 elite soldiers under his command. You should know that the south was not fully developed at that time. More than half of the people in the Central Plains were in Shandong, and the population in the south was less than 20%. Such a force was not as large as all the princes in the south.
Although history has changed at this time, Xiao Xian, as a descendant of the Western Liang royal family, is still the leading figure among the southern forces. Although Lin Shihong had the help of the Momen, he was still powerless to him. More importantly, the south had heavy water battles and light cavalry wars. However, Xiao Xian's army attacked this time was not only skilled in water battles, but also suddenly had an elite cavalry on the land to help. With intentional calculations and unintentionality, he defeated Lin Shihong's land troops in one fell swoop.
When Qin Mu came to the south, Lin Shihong could only hide in Jiujiang on the land, and the war was in the heart of his power, Poyang Lake.
On the lake, both sides were giant ships, and they were not inclined to each other. In terms of the performance of the warship, Lin Shihong, who was helped by the Momen, was even better. However, after all, Guangdong and Guangxi were barren, and he was absolutely at a disadvantage in number, facing nearly seventy ships against the enemy with forty ships.
At this time, the atmosphere was gloomy on the flagship where Lin Shihong was located. He was surrounded by a group of young men in black. They were all men of the ranks trained by the Mo Sect. It may be exaggerated to say that they were full of wisdom and tricks, but they all had relatively formal military training. If they were simply fighting between the two armies, even if they had weaker troops, they would not be afraid at all.
But the other party not only had a large number of warships, but more importantly, somehow there were a group of experts from the world on the ship. When they were engaged in the battle, they often took the opportunity to fly to Lin Shihong's warships, and in groups of ten people, they rushed the sergeants on the ship to pieces. Cooperating with the warships behind them, Lin Shihong suffered heavy injuries, leaving only twenty-three or four warships, and nearly ten of them had basically lost their combat power, but the opponent's warships were still more than fifty.
Lin Shihong has a very high stature. Even if he is at a disadvantage, his back is still straight and his face is still bold.
He looked around and said in a deep voice: "You can tell the origin of those people."
At this time, a man in black stood up and said, "King of Chu, if his subordinates read it correctly, those people should be masters in the Tiance Mansion of Li family. The master who uses swords in the head should be Li Shimin's first master, Li Jing."
His name is Zhao Cuo, who was trained in Qinmu Villa to collect intelligence. Under Lin Shihong, he was responsible for all matters in the world. He must be absolutely sure of speaking like this.
Lin Shihong suddenly realized in his heart that he understood where the cavalry in Xiao Xian's army came from. The information in his hands was even earlier than that of Qin Mu and others. Naturally, he knew that when the Turks entered the pass, the biggest threat to the Li family actually came from Liu Wuzhou and others in the north, but if the Turks shocked them, they could naturally take their hands to deal with themselves in the south.
After all, with the help of the Mo Sect, his power developed too quickly. Although Xiao Xian was still stronger than him, everyone in the world understood that he was already weak. Instead, when he unified the south, he was the biggest enemy of the Li family.
What's more, both sides are just chess pieces, and neither the Demon Sect nor the Righteous Way will expect the kindness of their opponents.
But Xiao Xian and Li Qi can be said to be the two strongest forces today. Although Li Shimin did not send all his subordinates to prevent his elder brother Li Jiancheng, it was an unbearable weight for Lin Shihong.
I heard the sound of warships gathering in the opponent's formation, and I obviously wanted to defeat our severely damaged troops in one fell swoop.
Lin Shihong stood up, stood up, and looked at the people around him, with a look of extremely closeness in his eyes.
After the Yinkui Sect was subdued by Qin Mu, Pi Shouxuan was the one who knew the most about the current affairs. Lin Shihong even went to the villa in person to meet Qin Mu. He was an extremely smart person and immediately understood that Qin Mu had no ambitions for the world. Instead, the Mo Sect was a very suitable help for him, so he would naturally make the most beneficial choice for himself. Lin Shihong was a white shirt and his generals were not very talented. Therefore, he also valued the generals from the Mo Sect and promoted them greatly. The strength of the Mo Sect in his army had surpassed the original group of generals.
Even for this matter, his men had several rebellions, but they could not stop the rise of the Momen forces in his army.
Qin Mu treated others sincerely, and his disciples were the same. Since they had joined Lin Shihong's command, they had always planned for Lin Shihong wholeheartedly and slowly established a true kingly foundation with the sparsely populated Guangdong and Guangxi.
The cooperation between the two parties was very pleasant.
At this time, he was already in a desperate situation, but his heart calmed down. He only heard him say, "Since I started the army, there has been no such critical moment. You are all pillars. If you want to protect your useful body and wait for the future, let's leave first, I will never complain."
He looked at the general in front of him.
All of them were disciples from the Mo Sect, but they were silent at this time. They were not afraid of death, but at this time they could not see any hope of turning the tables.
In war, you can use your passion to inspire sergeants, but as a qualified general, you must be able to see the facts clearly.
But silence is also a firm expression.
Lin Shihong looked around for a while and said, "Since that's the case, please help me defeat this thief."
The war begins again.
Lin Shihong became more and more desperate. His opponent did not carelessly because of his strength. Instead, he maintained his formation and slowly advanced without any flaws.
Such a dignified way of using troops is not others, but the characteristic of Li Jing, the number one general in the Li family.
Lin Shihong was unintentionally wondering why Xiao Xian asked Li Jing to command the battle with confidence, but such a battle gradually made him lose hope.
But in half an hour, Lin Shihong lost seven or eight more warships, but the other party just sank one.
When the warship closest to his flagship slowly sank, he finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
The commander on the ship was his only blood relative, his younger brother Lin Yaoshi. His brothers were absent from their parents since childhood and depended on each other for life. After he rose up, he was also his most capable arm.
He drew his sword, pointed at the enemy formation, and shouted, "Break the thief!"
The flag verb was typing, and Lin Shihong's flagship took the lead and rushed towards the enemy's formation.
Li Jing on the other party's flagship stood with a smile, and he had seen too many of the enemy's despair.
At this moment, a melodious flute sounded.

I feel that I can't master such a big scene well and can't write the atmosphere. Sorry, skip it immediately...
