Chapter 98 Offensive and defensive contrarian
Lihuo City at this time.
The Western Wilderness General Mang You led his army to detour, and the troops were at the city and had been attacking for a day.
Li Qinglin did not visit the front line in person, and the city gate soldiers worked very hard, but in the end they could not defeat the elites of the Western Wilderness. After a day and a night, the city was declared broken.
Gu You led his army in and smiled at the sky: "Li Qinglin is just like that! We overestimate him."
In fact, before this, as a famous general who has experienced many battles, Gu You had always had concerns in his heart.
Because this invasion was so smooth.
Especially the border army... The border army's guards are of course Li Qinglin's absolute confidant. Over the years, they don't know how many battles they fought with the Western Wilderness and how much blood they shed. Such people surrendered, and no generals and subordinates were dissatisfied. Even all the soldiers on the beacon tower were settled in advance, allowing them to go straight in. It was very strange.
He also advised the prince to be careful, but the prince didn't listen much.
But the facts proved that there was no problem. The surrendered generals and soldiers led the way all the way. They were able to reach Hengshan County so quickly, and this detour and raid on Lihuo were all the contributions to the party leading the way.
This time, even Lihuo City was destroyed. What other changes could happen?
Lihuo City was also destroyed by defending to the death. The soldiers guarding the city were almost killed or injured, and there was no suspicion of making them enter the city. As a famous general in battle, Gu You was very sure of this.
Maybe it was Li Qinglin who really disappointed the soldiers of the border army, because he was too worried.
The Western Wilderness Army rode its horses into the city, and the sound of horse hooves shattered the long street. Looking at Lihuo City, which was closed around, Miao smiled slightly.
Nanli is much more prosperous than the Western Wilderness. In the future, this place may become the capital of the Western Wilderness, but it will not be easily destroyed by troops. As long as he breaks the palace and captures Li Qinglin, he can be the commander of destroying the country and spreads its name in history.
As we headed straight to the palace, the palace guards had already fled, and we could still see the eunuchs and palace maids inside running in panic. When we saw the army approaching, we cried loudly.
Wu You rushed straight in, but was soon stunned.
The entrance is an extremely vast square, with high stone steps at the end of the square. There is a dragon chaise above the stone steps, and a figure sat quietly on it, watching the incoming army from a high place.
Jae You carefully ordered the soldiers to scatter and guard the major roads. Thousands of archers were stationed in the square, and collectively set their bows and arrows to point at the figures on the dragon throne.
After ensuring that everything was foolproof, Jae You carried the battle axe in his hand and led his army to slowly approach the stone steps with the generals.
As I got closer, I clearly saw an old man in a dragon robe sitting high above. He had an old face and a hunched figure, but he was leaning on a silver spear in his hand, his eyes were bright and sharp.
"Li...Li Qinglin?" Mi You's tone was quite shocking.
He himself is also a veteran in his fifties... This sudden appearance of seeing a young and handsome opponent who had fought on the battlefield many times has become much older than his veteran. The impact on his soul is indescribable.
I heard that he used some illusion to keep his youthful appearance. Now that the illusion has failed? Or does he not want to cover it up?
Jae You's heart was a little ominous.
"It's this king." Li Qinglin smiled and said, his voice was old, but he was very loud: "Ming You, I didn't expect that it was you instead of Ming Zhan, it's very good."
The ominous feeling in Gu You's heart became even stronger.
Although no matter how you look at it, Li Qinglin had no room for a turnaround, his attitude was too strange, and it seemed like Li Qinglin had won a battle.
Is this crazy because of the destruction of the country?
He didn't say anything, but just cautiously let the generals siege Li Qinglin to death.
Li Qinglin didn't care about being surrounded by heavy siege and still smiled: "Actually, as a famous general in a hundred battles, you should have noticed something strange this time."
Gu You signaled that the generals would not hurry to take action, and said lightly: "No matter what strange it is, Nanli has been destroyed, and you Li Qinglin is a prisoner. You can still laugh. Could it be that you failed too cruelly and you were crazy about losing your heart?"
Li Qinglin laughed to the sky: "It is not necessarily true that Nanli has been destroyed. The Western Wilderness must be destroyed first."
…………
On Hengshan County, the Ming River hangs in the sky, staring indifferently at the offense and defense of the city walls.
The endless corpses did not stir up any ripples in her eyes, and her eyes were more on Li Qingjun's bloody battle figure.
The cultivator rarely promised, fearing that he would be responsible for the cause and effect. However, when Qin Yi left, he entrusted her to save Li Qingjun's life, and she agreed without even thinking about it.
Not to give Qin Yi face.
I don't like Li Qingjun either.
It's just because of that jade pendant.
That was a very famous jade pendant... If Li Qinglin was lost, Li Qingjun would be the inheritor of the jade pendant. She, Tianshu Shenque, intended to sell face to the original owner of the jade pendant, which was also one of the contents mentioned in the reply letter from the master at that time.
But her mood was a little complicated at this time.
She once entered the palace to communicate with Li Qinglin, and her original intention was to talk about the jade pendant, but she got a very unexpected answer.
This decisive battle between Nanli is far from what Li Qingjun thought.
When the offensive and defense were getting hot, the central army in the battle under the city suddenly became turbulent. In less than a moment, the gold was suddenly roaring wildly, and the army that was sieging the city retreated like a tide.
Minghe sighed secretly and came.
Li Qingjun looked out at the city in shock, but saw that the army in the battle seemed to have received some extremely important order and was evacuating westward quickly, even the formation of the march was a little messy.
Veteran Xie Yuan said happily: "Princess, you can chase after me!"
Li Qingjun frowned: "This is too weird. Could it be a trap?"
"It's not a trap." Xie Yuan said with certainty: "This is the king's plan that has been completed."
Xie Yuan's tone was very strange, as if he was a little lonely and sad, but he was also a little respectful.
"The King's plan?" At this moment, Li Qingjun did not feel angry about being deceived, but was a little surprised.
Sure enough, even if my brother was addicted to practicing Taoism, he was still a famous general who fought on the battlefield for the first half of his life. Facing such an important battle situation, he could not finish it with just two orders, so he should have some arrangements.
Is it really arranged in secret?
She quickly ran down the city and organized cavalry. As long as Nanli was fine, what's the point if she hid it too much? Li Qingjun didn't fight for power, so her brother would take over it if he wanted to take over power.
The city gate opened with a bang. Li Qingjun took the lead and led his army out of the city, breaking straight behind the Western Wilderness army like a sharp blade.
It was indeed not a trap. The Western Wilderness Army itself didn't know what was going on. It only knew that the prince urgently ordered the withdrawal of the army. The soldiers were at a loss. If the army did not form, the formation would not form. In an instant, they were sprinted to the point of overturning the horse, and instead trampled on each other, killing and injuring countless casualties.
At the same time, the Nanli border troops, which were originally sandwiched in the Western Wilderness Army, all turned against each other and cooperated with Li Qingjun to cut off the Western Wilderness Army into countless pieces.
Offense and defense reverse instantly.
Li Qingjun was both surprised and happy, and led his men to chase him all the way, chasing him a hundred miles away.
On the far west border, the beacon tower suddenly smoked. The Nanli border army, who was still under custody in the border town, was bombing the camp and fighting again with the Western Defence Guardian for control of the checkpoint. This was the beacon smoke lit by the Western Defence Guardian.
Li Qingjun looked at Langyan from a distance, and couldn't think of what his brother did.
Minghe, who was watching the battle in the air, sighed and turned to look towards Lihuo City.
Chapter completed!
