Chapter 494: Xinxiang Confrontation
Xinxiang City, temporary headquarters of the Northern Alliance.
Qiu Yu stood at the window, looking at the bustling traffic outside, his face couldn't help flashing a solemnity, I don't know if I can hold on to this last barrier in Ji Province, once Xinxiang City also falls, then Ji Province will definitely fall into the hands of the Southern Alliance.
In the battle of Nanyue City, the Northern Alliance has already lost Yan Zòng, and if this battle is lost again, then it is unknown whether there is still strength to resist the invasion of the Southern Alliance.
It can be said that Xinxiang City must achieve a final victory in the first battle, or the entire northern underground world has a seventy percent chance of falling under the rule of the Southern Alliance.
In order to prepare for this battle, when Qiu Yu arrived in Xinxiang City, he had already contacted Hong Yunfei and asked him to come with the remaining forces to have a final decisive battle with the Southern Alliance.
There is absolutely no room for loss in this battle.
A full day had passed since Hong Yunfei was notified, and the people of Hongmen and the Demon Hall had not arrived, and Qiu Yu's face couldn't help but show a trace of anxiety.
Previously, being able to remove Hong Yunfei as the leader of the alliance relied on Hong Yunfei's defeat in the East China Sea.
Now, in the first battle of Nanyue City, in the case of joining forces with the Tiejia Army, there are still some small forces, which are still difficult to resist the attack of the Southern Alliance, and Nanyue City has fallen into the hands of the enemy, so it can be said that Qiu Yu needs to bear great responsibility.
If Hong Yunfei is taking advantage of this opportunity to regain the position of the leader of the alliance, it is not possible.
It's just that the battle of Xinxiang is already related to the survival of the entire Northern Alliance, and Qiu Yu has to unite other forces to resist the attack of the Southern Alliance.
Even if Hong Yunfei really did that in the end, for the sake of the entire northern underground world, Qiu Yu may have to give up the position of alliance leader, you know, Hong Yunfei did this before.
However, Qiu Yu's heart is not without hope, now the situation in the Northern Alliance is extremely strict, and it is no longer suitable for any more turmoil, with Hong Yunfei's previous initiative to give up the position of the leader of the alliance, he should not do such an extremely unfavorable thing now.
Changing the commander on the spot was the biggest taboo before the war.
"Tie Laosan, is there any news from Hongmen?" Qiu Yu shook his head fiercely, and then looked at the third elder of the Tie family, who was in charge of the intelligence department, and asked.
"Not yet, I don't know what Hong Yunfei's plans are." The face of the third child of the Tie family was not very good-looking, he shook his head slightly, and said in a heavy tone: "However, there is another bad news coming. ”
"What's the news?"
Qiu Yu's heart 'creaked', at this time, no matter what unfavorable news it was, it might bring a more severe blow to the whole situation.
"Demon Hall followed the second line of men and horses of the Southern Alliance, and on the way to Xinxiang City, when the enemy's two roads converged and rushed to Xinxiang City, Wu Qianqiu led people to attack Nanyue City, and was finally attacked by the enemy who returned to help, and ended up with a total annihilation." The third elder of the Tie family did not hesitate, and said slowly: "Once this news comes out, I am afraid that the forces below will be afraid and will no longer be able to fight." ”
"What?"
Qiu Yu's face was full of anger and shouted in disbelief.
Demon Hall, which is one of the four top forces of the Northern Alliance, is now completely wiped out, and the morale of the Northern Alliance will naturally reach its peak.
However, something has happened, even if Qiu Yu wants to hide it, I'm afraid he can't hide it, and he can only try to find a way to minimize the impact.
Otherwise, it will have a non-negligible impact on the upcoming Xinxiang War.
"Alliance leader, let's try our best to contact Hong Yunfei, we can only fight desperately in this battle." The third elder of the Tie family's face was solemn, and said in a deep voice: "I have received news that the two groups of people from the Southern Alliance have now come to Xinxiang in a joint decision, and it is estimated that they will be able to arrive in ten hours at most." ”
"That's the only way to do it now." Qiu Yu didn't understand the shape he was facing, so he could only sigh slightly, and said extremely helplessly: "Then this matter will be left to you, tell Hong Yunfei, if you can't reach Xinxiang within ten hours, then he will bear the consequences." ”
"Okay."
The third elder of the Tie family showed a touch of helplessness in his eyes, and understood Qiu Yu's thoughts, but he could only agree at this time.
As Qiu Yu said, if Hong Yunfei couldn't arrive in time, with the forces gathered in Xinxiang City now, he would not be able to resist the attack of the Southern Alliance at all.
Subsequently, the third child of the Tie family walked out of the office directly and began to contact Hong Yunfei.
Looking at the back of the third elder of the Tie family, Qiu Yu's face was even more worried, and he could clearly feel that the Tie family was already a little dissatisfied with his position as the leader of the alliance, but he was forced by the shape in front of him and did not come out.
Once Xinxiang fights and wins the final victory, not only Hong Yunfei will attack him, but the Tie family will probably do the same, and at that time, the situation he faces will be extremely unfavorable.
It's just that the current situation has made Qiu Yu not scruple so much, for the sake of the entire northern underground world, it is necessary to unite a force that can be united in order to ensure that it will not fall under the rule of the Southern Alliance.
As for the aftermath, it can only be left to the flow.
…………
Ten hours had passed quickly, and Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family stood on the defensive line of Xinxiang City, looking in the direction of the suburbs with burning eyes.
The third elder of the Tie family has already received the news, and in half an hour at most, the two groups of people from the Southern Alliance will arrive.
This also means that the final decisive battle is about to begin, and they have no way to retreat, only to fight to the death.
Therefore, even Qiu Yu, who was afraid of death, did not hesitate to stand on the front line, just to boost the morale of the forces below, after all, the destruction of the Demon Hall had a great impact, if he didn't do this, I am afraid that without a battle, the Northern Alliance would already be defeated.
As for Hongmen, when the third elder of the Tie family contacted him, he had already received a clear reply from Hong Yunfei and would rush to Xinxiang City within ten hours.
However, before they arrived at this time, Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, could it be that Hong Yunfei had really given up the Northern Alliance?
If this is really the case, then there is no need to continue this battle at all.
At the same time that Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family were terrified in their hearts, the people and horses galloped towards Xinxiang City quickly, from far and near, and soon appeared in sight.
The faces of the four couldn't help but be for a while, and they immediately ordered the people below to be vigilant.
It was only as the people and horses approached that the faces of the four people breathed a sigh of relief, and the people and horses who came were the people and horses of Hongmen.
"Brother Yunfei, you've finally arrived." Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family immediately stepped forward and said in surprise with a hint of joy that could not be concealed.
"Alliance leader, this battle is already related to the life and death of the Northern Alliance, and as a member of the Northern Alliance, naturally we can't avoid the war." Hong Yunfei smiled calmly and explained: "The reason why I arrived so late is because I went to the Northeast in advance and won the underground forces over there. ”
"They will do their best to send men and horses to this side to support, so we just need to hold on now and hold on until their reinforcements arrive, and we can defeat the Southern Alliance in one fell swoop."
"Really?"
The faces of Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family instantly showed a touch of joy, if there was really the support of the underground forces in the northeast, then this battle was not impossible to win.
"Of course, they also understand the truth of cold lips and teeth, once our Northern Alliance is defeated, won't the Southern Alliance attack the Northeast?" Hong Yunfei's face showed a touch of confidence, and he said with great certainty.
"That's good."
Qiu Yu and the three brothers of the Tie family glanced at each other, and sighed in their hearts, Hong Yunfei is worthy of a generation of heroes, and he has already anticipated these in advance and made arrangements.
If it were them, they might not have the courage to go to the Northeast Region to persuade those underground forces, you know, they have always been very uneasy to deal with, otherwise, why didn't the underground forces in the Northeast join the Northern Alliance?
"Okay, the people from the Southern Alliance are about to arrive, so let's prepare for a battle in advance." Hong Yunfei nodded slightly and said to the four of them.
"Let's go, come in with us."
Subsequently, the people of Hongmen entered Xinxiang City smoothly and strengthened the defense line of Xinxiang City again.
Nearly twenty minutes passed, and under the leadership of Du Yunchen and Xiao Changfeng, the two men and horses of the Southern Alliance finally arrived, facing the defense line formed by the Northern Alliance, and did not launch a fierce attack at the first time.
First, the wind and dust are coming, and the people below will definitely be tired, facing the Northern Alliance, which is waiting for work, even if it occupies a certain advantage in strength, it will not be beneficial to the Southern Alliance to start a war at this time.
Second, the army that surrenders without a fight is the royal way, with the fall of the Demon Hall, it must have caused great turmoil within the Northern Alliance, if the Northern Alliance can be persuaded to surrender, it is also a good thing, at least to avoid huge losses on both sides.
After all, this battle, once it starts, must be a battle of life and death, and at that point, the losses are simply uncontrollable.
What's more important is to delay time, even if the Northern Alliance does not surrender, if it does this, it can be delayed for as long as it can, anyway, as long as Gu Yang can solve the trouble in the northeast, then it will not be a big problem to take the entire north.
"Qiu Yu, I'll give you one last chance, surrender." Du Yunchen took the lead in standing up and said to Qiu Yu not far away: "If you insist on fighting, you must know what the consequences will be." ”
"Du Yunchen, are you dreaming?" Before Qiu Yu could speak, Hong Yunfei had already stood up, looked at Du Yunchen with a gloomy face, and said with a gloomy face: "If you have the ability, attack it, I will definitely let you know that this attack is the biggest mistake you have made." ”
If you lose, you can't lose the battle, and the momentum can't be weak.
Hong Yunfei deeply understands this truth, and naturally he will not be timid.
What's more, he and Qingyun Society have become mortal enemies, even if they really surrender in the end, then Hongmen may not be able to escape the end of destruction, and Du Yunchen will definitely solve the old enemy of Hongmen.
