Chapter Eighty-Three: A Special Confrontation
He took the prince of Handan, Ping, Fengchenyang and others to stand on the towering walls of Rushing City. As far as the eye can see, the sky and the earth are white. The sun shines on the earth, but it doesn't bring a trace of warmth.
With excitement on his face, he breathed in the cold air and looked forward to a better future.
A warrior went up to the city tower and knelt down on one knee in front of the immortal: "General Ming, in the east of the city, I found an army of the dwarf race, about 10,000 people, marching towards Rushing City. ”
Another warrior hurried over. "General Xuan, on the Qinghe Plain west of the city, a force of 1,000 people has appeared, and more soldiers are being assembled. ”
The mist on his face immediately came to his senses, glanced at Feng Chen, and asked, "General Feng, what do you think is going on?"
Feng Chenyang looked serious and replied: "General Huan, this time they seem to be prepared, and they must not be taken lightly, I will arrange it and prepare for the battle." ”
"Fighting?" "Fighting?" Immortal was a little stunned, but then he understood Feng Chenyang's eyes, and said with a wry smile: "You can tell the new city lord about these!"
He was a little flustered, and he looked at his uncle. "Have we fought with our current strength?"
Feng Chenyang interjected: "If you can't fight, you have to fight, it just so happens that the prince can also fight and stand up." He commanded the two warriors on the ground: "Close the gates of the city at once, and send the army up to the city wall to prepare for the battle, and the prince himself will supervise the battle." ”
Yan Ping's face was bitter, and he said to Yan Immortal: "Uncle, I haven't fought before, so it's better for you to command." ”
At this moment, a group of men and horses appeared on the wide avenue to the east, all of them riding mighty swords, dressed in shining armor, carrying slender scimitars at their waists, and holding sharp spears.
The dwarven warriors did not rush to attack, they stationed their troops in the snow a stone's throw away, and the loud slogans resounded in the sky.
How could Ping have seen such a formation, her legs trembled slightly, and her eyes kept glancing at her immortal.
Immortal saw Andrew and Eric, standing in the snow and smiling at him. The other generals naturally knew them, but they didn't dare to say it.
The guards quickly caught up with the walls, the heavy gates were closed, and the black ebony bows were full.
Feng Chenyang hurriedly ordered. "Put down the bow and arrows, they haven't attacked yet, let's just do a good defense!"
Yan Ping also followed: "Yes, yes, yes, in case these dwarves are just passing by, don't act rashly!"
The Guardian warriors lowered their bows and arrows and entered a silent standoff.
"Prince, please look!" Feng Chenyang pointed to a place in the Qinghe Plain. "There's another group of people there, can't it be that they're coming at us too?"
On the plain in the distance, Li Hanwen was pulling away the team and marching in an orderly manner in the direction of Rushing City.
Seeing that those teams were sturdy, riding tall horses, and their movements were uniform, they looked like a cavalry team with extremely strong combat effectiveness, and he was a little scared. "They're not going to fight each other at the Gates of Riverrun, are they? ”
Feng Chenyang looked at it for a while and said, "They don't seem to be going to war with each other, but they seem to be coming at us together!"
The face is as flat as ashes. "How did we mess with them? Come and give me big gifts when I'm in office?"
"In the current situation, do you still need a reason to go to war with others?" Feng Chenyang said is not unreasonable, in troubled times, the winner is always king.
Yan Ping asked at Feng Chenyang, "According to what the general said, what is good now?"
'They haven't attacked yet, we don't know what the situation is, so we have to see how things develop. The most important thing we need to guard against now is the good night assassination, didn't the immortal general be assassinated several times a day? The prince doesn't have to worry too much, we are still very dedicated to the defense of the assassination!"
"Is it that dangerous?"
"Where is there not a crisis now? Alas! In addition to Handan City, the national capital, where is there a Pure Land in the world now? No wonder General Immortal has always wanted to return to Handan City!"
Ying Bu Xuan finally interjected: "Let's go back to the house first, the current situation should not be a fight." ”
Taking advantage of the short time on the road, Feng Chenyang briefly told the plan to the immortal, although the immortal had some doubts, but he didn't say anything.
The tea in the council hall was full of steam, how could Ping be in the mood to drink tea, this place was completely different from what he imagined, and he even regretted it a little. He paced back and forth in the hall, his face extremely complicated.
The others had basically seen the problem, but none of them spoke. The hall was silent except for the footsteps of the Ping.
Feng Chenyang stood up and said to Huan Ping: "I'll go back and get the blade, and I'll lead the troops to defend today." ”
When Feng Chenyang returned to the hall, Huan Ping was already sitting in the chief, and kept saying something to Huan Immortal, his face was still flustered.
Feng Chenyang saw that the sky was gradually darkening, and when he was about to say goodbye to everyone and go up to the wall to defend the city, a herald walked in and said to Huan Ping: "Prince, there is someone outside who wants to see you by name. ”
He tensed up. "Who is it?"
"He said his name was Li Hu!"
"Open the gates and let him in, he is my teacher. ”
"Yes!" the herald replied, turning to leave.
Ying Ping became excited and said to everyone: "My teacher is a great character, there is nothing he can't solve. Now, he's coming over!"
Feng Chenyang was a little surprised, he looked at the immortal, trying to figure out who was coming.
He was also confused, and he asked Ping, "Li Hu, why haven't you heard of this person?"
"Naturally, my uncle will not know, this person has not taught me for a long time, but all these years, when my nephew is in danger, he can always show me the way, he is a great hermit. She looked proud.
Yan Bu Xuan looked at Feng Chenyang, and his face was a little ugly.
After a while, an old man in a brown cotton robe was ushered into the hall by the guards.
Li Hu clenched his fists at the people in the hall with an apologetic expression. "You guys are hard, and you shouldn't be bothered by old age, but when His Royal Highness the prince first arrived here, he was also afraid that he would be young and vigorous and do some foolish things. Therefore, the decay is uninvited. ”
"You're welcome, sir, please take a seat. He smiled and said to Li Hu: "Mr. is a hermit who has his own merits, and now I hope that Mr. will give him advice!"
Huan Ping helped Li Hu sit down, and said to Li Hu deeply: "The teacher can come, the students are grateful, the teacher must have seen the situation outside, please teach me." ”
Li Hu smiled slightly. "I naturally saw this, but you don't have to care, they are just putting on a show, and they don't dare to attack the city. ”。
"The students don't understand. ”
"There are no siege equipment, and there is no siege, is there such a siege?" Li Hu stroked his white beard, and there was always a resolute smile on his face that was crisscrossing the ravines.
