Chapter 481: A Blessed Opportunity
Shi Le actually wanted to send 200,000 troops to round up Long Chen, who had only 500 cavalrymen, and the Privy Councilor Lu Qichang felt incredible.
"No, the lion still uses all his strength to fight against the rabbit, let alone Long Chengen is an old fox!"
"I ordered the prince to raise an army immediately. I will surround and kill him in person!"
Long Chen ran to the hinterland of Xixia alone. How could Shi Le let such a good opportunity go?
Ma Fang immediately left the palace to preach the order.
Shi Le was so happy that he was ready to beat his hands and said excitedly: "You must not miss the opportunity and never come again. This time, you must kill Long Cheng'en! As long as Long Cheng'en is dead, the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be an eagle with broken wings!"
The Privy Councilor Lu Qichang nodded and said, "Yes, Long Chengen was seriously injured a few days ago, and the entire Eastern Zhou Dynasty was in chaos. As soon as he came, the situation on the battlefield immediately reversed. This guy was indeed the pillar of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Shi Le smiled happily and said, "Yes, that's right. This time I will use the whole country to round up this guy!"
Prince Shi Haoran was shocked when he received the order. Unexpectedly, Long Chen dared to go deeper alone.
He agreed with Shi Le's opinion that as long as he could kill Long Chen, he could pay any price.
Soon, Shile's cavalry 200,000 were killed in the direction of Jinxian County.
A huge encirclement net was cast on Long Chen.
....
Chiyan Temple.
Kongji and Deshan stood on a small hill, looking at the direction of the Jade Buddha Pass.
"It's strange, why didn't Long Cheng'en move when he was there for a few days?"
Monk Deshan felt strange. After the last raid, Long Chen had no new moves.
Monk Kongji said, "This guy has many tricks. The more he does, the more we should be careful."
These days, Monk Kongji racked his brains to use a strategy to attack the Jade Buddha Pass, but he still couldn't think of a good way.
The cities on both sides of the pass echo the Jade Buddha Pass, and it is easy to attack the flanks when they rashly attack.
Last time, relying on the advantage of the general, Kongji and Deshan led their troops to attack Jade Buddha Pass at the same time. They sent troops to besiege the small city before they injured Emperor Lingyi.
But the Jade Buddha Pass was built too strongly, and the emptiness and virtue were advanced, but the soldiers could not pass and finally had to retreat.
"Senior brother, do you think... will Long Chengen be not here?"
Deshan suddenly had a whim, but Monk Kongji's heart trembled and said, "It's possible!"
After Zhenguo Temple was attacked, Kongji always suspected that Long Chen was leading the team, but he was not sure.
Because Long Chen was the chief general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the army confronted at Jade Buddha Pass, but the chief general was circling behind Xixia, which was not consistent with common sense.
But Long Chen kept doing things against the rules, and maybe he really rushed to the rear.
"Hong Zheng!"
The disciple Hong Zheng came up and Kong Ji said, "I ordered you to lead 50,000 troops and attack immediately!"
Hong Zheng was stunned for a moment and asked, "Master, is it appropriate to attack now?"
Hong Zheng knew that Zhixian was killed, and Long Chen was at Jade Buddha Pass. He asked him to attack, but he would probably go but not return.
"If you want to go, go!"
De Shan scolded.
Hong Zheng did not dare to ask more questions, and immediately ordered 50,000 troops to prepare to attack Jade Buddha Pass.
At this time, a monk rode a fast horse to the top of the mountain and reported panting: "Master, Master, something happened, and the pursuit of Iron Harrier was almost wiped out. The escaped brother said that Long Chengen was raiding behind him!"
Kongji and Deshan were stunned at the same time.
"I'm not here!"
Monk Kongji was both surprised and happy.
Monk Deshan said happily: "Senior brother, let's quickly attack Jade Buddha Pass and fight with one go while Long Cheng'en is away!"
Kong Ji smiled and said, "My junior brother is confused. Long Chengen only has five hundred cavalry. Of course, we will kill Long Chengen first and then attack Jade Buddha Pass."
"As long as Long Cheng'en is killed, only Emperor Lingyi will guard the Jade Buddha Pass, and it is easy to break the Pass."
"After this incident, I have seen it clearly. The country of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was originally Long Chengen. As long as he died, the vitality of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was greatly damaged, and it was possible to destroy the country!"
"Junior brother, you are here to guard it. Just keep it in hand. I will immediately lead 50,000 troops to capture it!"
Deshan said in surprise: "Why do senior brother want so many?"
Fifty thousand against five hundred, one hundred times the force, this is too exaggerated.
Kong Ji laughed and said, "Not too much, no matter how many, I must use my superior force to kill Long Cheng'en, to prevent this guy from escaping!"
The mainland of Xixia is vast, with only 500 people, and you can get rid of anywhere, so it is easy to escape.
Another point is that if Long Chen fled north, he would likely escape into the grassland.
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
Monk Kongji was overjoyed and immediately rode his horse back to Chiyan Temple. Hong Zheng had just prepared his troops.
"Tele the troops immediately and follow me!"
Kongji didn't go in, so he let Tie Harrier follow him.
Hong Zheng said in surprise: "Master and uncle want to solve the problem himself?"
Kong Ji smiled and said, "No, don't hit the Jade Buddha Pass, follow me to kill Long Cheng'en!"
Hong Zheng said in surprise: "Is Long Chengen not in the pass?"
Kong Ji shook his head and smiled, "No, this guy is wandering in the hinterland of my Daxia, following me to chase and kill!"
Hong Zheng was overjoyed and immediately led his troops to follow Kongji to chase the northwest.
....
Caishi City.
Wu Chuchu helped Qingyue into the room, and Wu Xiangyun immediately brought the medicine box.
"Whose cold arrow?"
Wu Xiangyun picked up scissors, cut open his sleeves, and saw the arm being shot through.
Qingyue glanced at the wound and said, "That Xue Ze, this guy's archery technique is very accurate, I'm afraid he is comparable to Jiali."
Wu Xiangyun cleaned the wound, picked up a glass of wine, and said, "Honesty!"
The strong wine poured into the wound, Qingyue's cheeks were red due to pain, and Wu Chuchu held Qingyue to comfort her.
Wu Xiangyun wrapped it with gauze again, then held Qingyue and lay down to rest.
"It would be great if the adults were here."
Qingyue sighed.
Xue Ze's archery technique is very powerful for them, and they are the target when they meet Long Chen.
"I don't know how my lord is doing."
Wu Xiangyun's face was dull and he was thinking about Long Chen.
When he set off, Long Chen was still lying in the Imperial Hospital, wrapped like a rice dumpling.
After arriving at Caishi City, the Nanliang army was besieged, and there was no news within and outside the city. They didn't know how Long Chen was doing.
"You have a good rest, I'll go and help the princess."
Wu Chuchu carried the Park Knife and went up to the city wall again. There were many corpses piled up outside the city, and there were many corpses and wounded soldiers lying in the city.
Emperor Luoxi was wearing silver armor, the spear in his hand was covered with blood, and the battle robe was covered with blood.
Xuan Yi rode a horse to patrol, asking everyone to rest quickly and wait for the next wave of attacks.
"Li Chengdao is crazy and attacks three times a day!"
Wu Chuchu didn't understand why Nanliang suddenly launched a fierce attack, regardless of the cost.
Di Luoxi shook his head and said, "I don't know, I may want to force Linjiang City to send troops to reinforce."
Wu Chuchu sighed, "I'm afraid Gongsun Ming will not be able to protect himself."
Outside Linjiang City are the five tiger generals of Nanliang, Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai. Hundreds of thousands of troops under their command are blocking the city. It is impossible for Gongsun Ming to reinforce Caishi City.
"Maybe... I just want to break through Caishi City."
Di Luoxi couldn't understand, and she couldn't make a judgment if the outside world could not enter.
"Prepare to fight, don't worry about him!"
Di Luoxi was too lazy to think about it, so he took some bread and water in the gap, and then ate it and took a break.
Outside Linjiang City.
Hu Feiyang and Qiu Kuohai looked at the city, and the empress's birds fluttered in the wind.
"Do you think the empress is in the city?"
Hu Feiyang stroked his beard and asked suspiciously.
Qiu Kuohai shook his head slightly and said, "I heard that the empress has arrived, but she has never seen her come out. Caishi City is fighting fiercely, but she is indifferent. It's strange!"
