When Zhu Da heard the news, he also decided to lead the army to a battle, to establish some prestige in the army for himself, so as to control his subordinates.

The main generals of the two sides had their own goals and took the initiative to lead their armies to intersect. When the two sides touched, they immediately put down their positions, and a bloody battle was imminent.

Yuan Jun is the leader of the veteran general, just as the formation was about to be formed, Ji Ling and others led their troops to rush out more than ten people, preparing to call the formation.

"Who is coming, report your name!"

Standing in front of the formation, Zhu Da looked at Ji Ling and the others who had stopped hundreds of meters away, and shouted, "I'm here, Zhu Da, who are you?"

Ji Ling pointed at the three-pointed two-edged knife, and shouted: "Ji Ling, junior Zhu Da, do you dare to fight?"

Before the battle, the generals often had rehearsals, but they didn't fight for their lives. At this time, Ji Ling called the battle, and Zhu Da hesitated for a while.

Xu Shu once introduced some of Er Yuan's generals, and this Ji Ling ranked first, that is to say, he might not be his opponent.

"Junior Zhu Da, if you are afraid, you can put down your weapon, and Ji Ling will spare you!" Seeing that Zhu Da should not respond, Ji Ling immediately made provocative words to boost morale in disguise.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

……

As soon as Ji Ling finished speaking, the people around him burst out laughing, obviously mocking Zhu Da for being cowardly and leaving Li Jun alone.

Seeing such a scene, my uncle can bear it, but my aunt can't bear it. Wang Hu beside Zhu Da couldn't bear it, and said: "General Zhu, why don't we let Wei Jiang go to meet him."

As the name suggests, Wang Hu is tall and thick, and he is the son of a small landlord. He likes to fight and make trouble since he was a child.

In the general's courtyard, he was once instructed by Dian Wei, Guan Yu and others, and he can be regarded as the number one person.

Zhu Da looked at Wang Hu and asked, "Are you sure? Ji Ling's martial arts skills are good. If you're not sure, don't risk a fight, and your morale can't be damaged?"

Wang Hu showed a rare solemnity on his face, and said seriously: "Don't worry, Weijiang will have a backup, even if he can't beat Ji Ling, he won't be defeated."

Seeing Wang Hu's serious appearance, Zhu Da nodded and said, "Okay, then be careful, as long as you are undefeated in this battle, you will be the first to win."

"Yes, drive!" Wang Hu clamped his horse's belly, mopped the ground with a big knife in his hand, and shouted: "How can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife? Ji Lingxiu is going crazy. Grandpa Wang Hu is here to kill you."

Seeing Wang Hu rushing towards him, Ji Ling sneered and said, "It's really an incomprehensible thing. Since I am willing to block the knife for Zhu Da, then I will take your life first!"

Ji Ling applauded disdainfully and greeted him. As soon as the two weapons were exchanged, the two sides already had some understanding of each other's details. Ji Ling was confident that he could take down Wang Hu, but it would take at least [-] rounds. It seemed that Li Huiyi was really good at judging people.

And Wang Hu also had a trace of self-confidence in his heart, not for anything else, because facing Ji Ling, he didn't have the helplessness of Guan Yu and Dian Wei, the helplessness that made it difficult to escape.

The two sides were thinking about each other, the weapons in their hands were constantly slashing and stabbing, and the fight was indistinguishable for a while. The two sides watching the battle were also vigilantly staring at the battle circle, ready to rush out to respond at any time.

By the [-]th round of the battle, Wang Hu's saber technique gradually ran out of new moves, but Ji Ling's moves were endlessly varied, gaining the upper hand for a while, and the three-pointed double-edged knife in his hand became much more flexible, constantly looking for opportunities to stab Wang Hu.

After being pressed and beaten for several rounds, Wang Hu was so aggrieved that he was about to die, but there was nothing he could do, he had all the strength in his body, but he couldn't use it.

Seeing that he was about to lose, Wang Hu tried his best to slash three times, but Ji Ling cleverly deflected them all in seconds. In desperation, Wang Hu had no choice but to force Ji Ling away with his sword again, and fled back with his horse.

After slashing four swords in a row, Wang Hu was out of breath and looked exhausted. All this was watched by Ji Ling, which made him overjoyed.

Chapter 576

If Wang Hu is beheaded, then Li Jun's morale will be damaged. When the time comes, he will take advantage of the victory to cover up the kill, and he will win the first battle. It is exciting to think about it.

Seeing Ji Ling chasing after him, Wang Hu showed a smile on his face, quickly let go of the hand holding the rein, took out an iron ball of about one catty from his arms, and quickly threw it backward.

"Bang!" Ji Ling chased him in a hurry, and he was totally unprepared. It was too late when he heard the sound of breaking through the air, and the iron ball hit his helmet directly.

With a loud noise, Ji Ling felt his head buzzing, and the foreground images in front of his eyes also overlapped.

As soon as Wang Hu succeeded in the blow, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled out his horse and killed him, preparing to take Ji Ling's life, making this first achievement.

But Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang, who were watching the battle from a distance, also had quick hands and quick eyes. The moment Wang Hu shot the iron ball, he knew that it was not a second, and he rushed out.

At this time Wang Hu came back, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang had rushed not far from Ji Ling, brandishing their weapons and shouting to cover Ji Ling who was dangling on horseback.

"The thief will go crazy!"

"Look at the knife!"

Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang swung their weapons at Wang Hu at the same time. Wang Hu was forced to withdraw his sword to defend, but these two brothers were also titans.

Seeing that Ji Ling was safe for the time being, he turned to besiege Wang Hu from left to right. He was so helpless to fight back, and was hit several times on his body. Fortunately, he was protected by double armor, so his life was safe.

Seeing this, Zhu Da in the distance quickly ordered the whole army to rush to kill. "General Wang has one against three, our army has won, kill!"

As soon as the general order was issued, Li Jun rushed to the battlefield in an orderly manner. Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang saw that they could not take Wang Hu down for a while, so they could only protect Ji Ling and retreat first.

And Yuan Jun also charged with the whole army immediately, covering the retreat of the three of them, and the armies of both sides charged together and started a fierce fight.

The fierce battle lasted for nearly an hour, both sides suffered losses from each other, knowing that no one could do anything to the other, they could only withdraw their troops with money and retreat to Dazhai.

Both sides suffered losses in this battle, and no one could tell the winner, but in general, Zhu Da had a slight advantage.

Because the order he received was to strictly guard against death and not let Yuan Jun move forward. Since the first battle, the morale of the army has been stable, and it can be regarded as a slight foothold in the army.

After Zhu Da led his army back to Dazhai, he ordered all the ministries to stand by and dispatch a large number of spies to prevent Yuan Jun from detouring and waiting for the follow-up army to arrive.

When Yuan Jun returned to Dazhai, Ji Ling and others immediately held the lamps and raised the account, discussing how to proceed next.

Ji Ling suffered a great loss on the battlefield today. If he hadn't had a helmet to block most of the blow force, he might have been seriously injured.

If he couldn't defeat Wang Hu head-on, Ji Ling might not be so angry, but he was defeated by a sneak attack, which filled him with anger.

Ji Ling still had a dull pain in his head at this time, which was obviously the aftereffect of that blow. He looked at the generals in the tent fiercely and said:

"Li Jun fought today. It can be seen that they are not as brave as Tai Shici and others, and the commanding generals are also timid and dare not let go."

"That's why I suggest that we start attacking the stronghold tomorrow to clear the way for the follow-up army. What do you think?"

Lu Kuang agreed and said: "That's fine, the truth has been revealed today, if you are afraid of the battle and don't advance, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain the arrival of the follow-up army."

Both sides in this battle had a one-fight mentality, and they naturally didn't want to wait for a long time, so as to give Li Jun a chance to breathe and arrange a perfect defense.

Since both sides have decided to send troops, the next thing to discuss is how to break through the enemy's stronghold.

Lu Xiang said: "Since we want to attack the stronghold, we have to make a good plan. It's better for the Japanese generals to call for formation tomorrow and ambush soldiers on both sides."

"If the enemy troops come out of the stronghold to fight, they will go out on both sides to surround the enemy outside the stronghold and force the army inside the stronghold to rescue them. If the enemy army does not come out, they will attack from three sides. What do you think?"

"Okay." Ji Ling yelled and stood up and said, "However, General Lu's call for formation was inappropriate. Japan will be attacked today, and the enemy is sure to hold a grudge against him, so tomorrow's Japanese general's call for formation will be more reasonable."

Ji Ling is worthy of being a battle-tested veteran. Although he was furious and suffered a little concussion, he has not lost his mind. It seems that there is no shortcut to gain this old experience.
