Li Damu and Zhuge Zen fight!

[Admin]

Li Damu's horse nickered gently, sensing, perhaps, that a fight was about to begin. It was correct, Zhuge Zen, wielding his cross spear, was slowly trotting towards him, intent clear, Li Damu sighed at the foolishness of the young, they thought they were invincible. It was a lesson already learnt by the warlord, and he had paid for the teaching in blood, his own.
Now more, young blood was about to be spilt.

[Zhuge Hong]

Zhuge Zen swung his spear a few times to work out any tension in his muscles, then he spurred his horse, a magnificent chestnut mare that was Zen's pride and joy. He heard Li Damu speak but ignored him, now was not the time for such words. As his speed got faster and faster he thrust with his spear at Li Damu's chest.

Li Damu rolled his upper body back in the saddle, the spear narrowly missing his chest, he clasped the spear handle and heaved on it, hopefully unhorsing his opponent, at the same time drawing his dagger and slashing at Zhuge Zen's hand.

Zhuge Zen was surprised at Li Damu's quickness, but he quickly moved back his hand from where the ruler struck at him, then twisted his body to break free of Li Damu's hold. Zhuge Zen then slashed from right to left at Li Damu's throat.

Li Damu brought his sword up quickly, the blades meeting with a mighty clash, forcing Zhuge Zen back, Li Damu quickly swiped with his dagger twice while the blades were locked, then he stabbed at the youngster's chest with his blade, ensuring there was no way to block by keeping Zhuge Zen's weapon held still.

(oh bugger, nicely done)

Zhuge Zen shouted out in pain as the dagger bit into his chest, wounding him badly. Smashing the sword away, he turned his chesnut back towards his own lines and fled, slumping in the saddle with defeat.
