A lowly soldier becomes king, I slaughter my way through the late Tang Dynasty!

Chapter 36 Capturing the Future Prime Minister of the Khitan!

Yelü Antuan is twenty-six years old this year and is a member of the Khitan royal family.

He was quick-witted and intelligent in his youth, and proficient in horsemanship, archery and martial arts. He was a promising young general of the Khitan royal family.

In real history, he would become a key contributor to Emperor Shizong of Liao's ascension to the throne, serving as the First Privy Councilor.

They were granted titles and honors, holding high positions of power and influence.

However, in the early spring of 945 AD, he was just an unknown young general.

At dawn, his right battalion was surrounded by the Jin army and suffered heavy losses!

Fortunately, Yelü Antuan was both wise and brave. He led his more than one hundred men in a series of fierce battles and finally broke through the Jin army's encirclement.

Having suffered such a crushing defeat, Yelü Antuan fled north, fuming as he did so.

"When the day comes, I will lead an army south alone and vow to avenge this humiliation!"

The Khitan soldiers around them were covered in dust and dirt, but they did not lose their morale.

"The young general is right. It's just one defeat; it's nothing to worry about."

"Next year, His Majesty will surely march south again to attack Jin; this grudge will be avenged!"

Yelü Antuan spat out a mouthful of sand and dust, about to order the journey to continue.

suddenly!

In the dim sandstorm ahead, a figure holding a knife in his left hand and a gun in his right hand came into view.

Yelü Antuan instantly became alert and ordered his men to maintain their charging formation.

If the enemy is a Jin army unit, do not linger in battle; run first!

However, as the two sides drew closer, Yelü Antuan suddenly froze.

Because there was only one person on the other side!

Not only was he stunned, but all of the more than one hundred Khitans were also stunned!

Everyone looked left and right, their faces full of confusion.

There really was no one else there!

Could this Han Chinese man ahead be lost?

Yelü Antuan breathed a sigh of relief; he had thought they had encountered an ambush.

If the other party is only one person, then things will be much easier.

Just as he was about to kill the Han man casually and continue his escape north,

The Han man actually shouted excitedly.

"You thieves, don't run! You're all surrounded by me!"

He shouted these words in Khitan, as if afraid they wouldn't understand.

Yelü Antuan was stunned for a moment!

What did I hear?

One person? Surrounding them were more than a hundred people?

Is that Han Chinese man in front of me a fool?

The Khitan cavalrymen were also taken aback, and someone suddenly burst out laughing.

Laughter erupted from the entire cavalry column.

"Hahaha, he surrounded us all by himself? Where did this idiot come from?"

"Damn it, we were chased by the Jin people for almost half the night. They really think we're easy to bully? One person dares to talk big!"

"Watch me shoot him dead with one arrow!"

A Khitan soldier drew his bow and arrow, attempting to kill the Han Chinese in front of him.

But they gave up quickly.

Because of the howling wind, there was absolutely no chance of hitting the target.

However, he didn't shoot, but the Han Chinese in front of him also drew their bows and nocked arrows!

"Hey! Playing with bows and arrows in front of us Khitans? This kid..."

Before the Khitan soldier could finish his sarcastic remark, there was a whoosh!

puff!

A white-feathered arrow, as if it had eyes.

It drifted through the gale, tracing a beautiful arc, and plunged right into his throat!

This scene left everyone speechless!

What kind of archery is that?!

Yelü Antuan's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief!

Even the most skilled archers in the Khitan army, the falconers, couldn't do something this outrageous, right?

"Good luck, it must be good luck."

Yelü Antuan comforted his subordinates.

But the next second, another arrow flew in!

"ah!!"

This time it didn't hit the throat, but it did lodge squarely in a Khitan man's cheek.

The Khitan man clutched his bleeding cheek, screaming in agony as he fell off his horse and rolled around in pain.

Yelü Antuan almost stopped breathing!

This is not luck!

That's fucking skill!

This Han Chinese man is incredibly accurate!

Yelü Antuan shuddered and hurriedly roared.

"Charge! Charge! Get close and kill him, quick!"

If this Han Chinese is allowed to continue shooting arrows, no one knows who will be the next to die.

The other Khitan soldiers were also suddenly awakened.

Before they could hide the shock on their faces, they hurriedly spurred their horses and charged towards the Han Chinese in front of them.

The Han man remained calm and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Three arrows fired in quick succession!

All three arrows hit their target!

Yelü Antuan watched helplessly as his companion fell from his horse, his heart filled with turmoil!

Just who is this Jin general?

Such incredible archery skills!

Fortunately, the two sides were not far apart.

After paying the price of three lives, Yelü Antuan finally got close to the Han man.

Being good at archery doesn't mean you're good at close combat!

Yelü Antuan brandished his broadsword and roared as he slashed horizontally.

The Han man, however, leaned back and lay down on the horse's back, perfectly avoiding the attack.

Yelü Antuan was surprised, not expecting this person to be such an excellent horseman.

He immediately stopped his attack, turned his head, and slashed downwards with the blade.

Unexpectedly, the Han man grabbed the horse's head with both arms and used the momentum to fly up!

Yelü Antuan was dumbfounded!

Is this some kind of equestrian performance?

The Han man grabbed his warhorse by the neck, swung it around in mid-air, and then sat down on his backside!

Yelü Antuan was greatly alarmed and hurriedly elbowed him backward.

The Han man easily pinned him down and, with a casual slap, disarmed him of his broadsword.

"Your horse is quite nice. My horse is tired from running, can I borrow it?"

Yelü Antuan was pinned to the horse's back and struggled desperately!

But the Han Chinese man behind him possessed incredible strength!

No matter how much he struggled, he couldn't move.

For a moment, Yelü Antuan felt like dying.

He actually...

He was captured alive in a single encounter!

This is absolutely humiliating!

When the Khitan soldiers and generals around saw this scene, they were all as if they had seen a ghost, and they dared not step forward.

Even the more valiant General An Tuan was captured alive like a duck in a single encounter.

How could they possibly be a match for them?

After a brief hesitation, the Khitans were very quick-witted and took off running!

Upon seeing this, the others quickly followed, afraid of being too slow.

There's a saying that goes like this.

When you're being chased, you don't need to run faster than the enemy, you just need to run faster than your teammates.

The Han man, riding a fine horse with Yelü Antuan as a prisoner, laughed heartily.

"Don't run! These are all my military achievements!"

Having said that, the Han man, wielding a knife and a pistol, charged into the Khitan army like a tiger among sheep, slaughtering the fleeing soldiers until they cried out in despair!

[Number of enemies killed +1]

[Number of enemies killed +1]

……

Yelü Antuan felt utterly hopeless upon witnessing this scene.

Where the hell did this incredible, powerful figure come from?

Can Han Chinese be this brave?

"Who are you? What's your name!"

Yelü Antuan was thrown around so much that he vomited, but he still shouted hoarsely.

The Han Chinese, who treated him like a cushion to sit on, laughed as he slaughtered the fleeing Khitan soldiers.

"Li Rui, it doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, your emperor certainly does."

Yelü Antuan's body trembled!

So this person was Li Rui!

Li Rui, who annihilated Xiao Pudu with three hundred men against five thousand!

Damn it...

Well-deserved name.

Being captured alive by such a formidable person isn't so shameful.

Just then, another Jin cavalry force hurriedly arrived amidst the sandstorm.

This cavalry force numbered two thousand and was well-equipped.

Someone pointed at Li Rui and shouted.

"General, look! There are people ahead!"

Everyone squinted and looked closely.

This is……

Wait, something's not right!

The Jin soldiers squinted, almost thinking they were seeing things.

This scene looks like one person chasing and hacking at hundreds of people!

Moreover, the Khitans who were being pursued were in disarray, abandoning their armor and weapons, and crying out for their parents.

Is this...is this correct?

How could the invincible Khitan cavalry be defeated like this?

While the soldiers were still in shock, the veteran general leading the group suddenly had a flash of inspiration!

He spurred his horse and spurred it forward.

Two thousand cavalrymen hurriedly followed behind, and after getting a little closer...

The leading general shouted.

"Is the person ahead Li Rui or Li Fengshi?"
