Li Cunxiao helped Yuan Shu resist the attack of the goblin army in Ancheng, making the earth dragon disgraced and unable to move forward. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Jing's previous commanders Li Dao, Zhang Ji, and Xu Rong's army, before they could take action, the Eastern Empire had already decisively occupied Pingyin, a small county next to the Yellow River.

The Eastern Empire did not expand externally, but continued to increase the expansion of Pingyin, building Pingyin as a military bunker.

The east side is next to the mountains, the west side has water as a natural barrier, the south side looks up at Luoyang, and the north side is close to the Yellow River, and the project is huge.

The Eastern Empire is worthy of being an old empire that has been inherited for thousands of years, and it is a steady and steady battle for the occupation of places.

Although there are only 50,000 troops coming, but for the defense is very set, the northwest of 20,000 troops in the water exercises, the south built a checkpoint to defend Luoyang at the same time, but also as the first stop of the army to attack Luoyang.

This made Xu Rong's army mainly combined in Pingxian, Luoyang, and Xingyang.

Although the war did not break out, Xu Rong was extremely careful day and night, guarding against a sneak attack by the army of the Eastern Empire.

There were 20,000 troops stationed in Xingyang, 10,000 troops stationed in Pingxian, 20,000 troops stationed in Hangu Pass, and 20,000 troops led by Xu Rong himself to camp in Pingyin Wuli.

Due to some geographical deviations, this makes two mountains appear less than two miles south of Pingyin, sandwiched by a deep valley, which naturally forms the best geographical location of a military Xiongguan.

The Eastern Empire built a checkpoint here, named Panlong Pass.

The army was stationed at Panlong Pass to hold Xu Rong.

"Hey, I did it myself!"

Xu Rongduan sat in his military tent, very distressed, he was stationed in the Luoyang area, but he didn't find the geography of Panlong Pass, and used it, and now he was built by the Eastern Empire, so that he could only sleep with the army.

"Report!"

"General, the marshal's army is coming!"

A signal soldier ran into Xu Rong's military tent in a hurry and reported to Xu Rong that Li Jing was coming.

This made Xu Rong get up and walk out of the big tent to greet Li Jing.

Although Li Jing does not have a trace of fame, he has the identity of Tao Song, which makes him dare not slack off.

"Xu Rong meets Li Dudu!"

Xu Rong looked at Li Jing and gave up his hand to Li Jing.

"General Xu, do you have an idea of attacking the army of the Eastern Empire?"

When Li Jing saw Xu Rong, he opened his mouth to ask, the Eastern Empire's army was arranged.

"Back to the governor, it's all my mistake, I didn't occupy Panlong Valley at the first time, and let the Eastern Empire build it in Panlong Valley, Panlong Pass, I led my troops to attack three times, not to mention the loss of more than 2,000 people!"

Xu Rong was honest and did not make excuses for his mistakes.

"Let's go, take me to see it!"

Li Jing was ordered to command the more than 200,000 troops, although the generals of the various armies under his command were very polite to him, but he knew in his heart that none of these people recognized him in their hearts.

are all waiting to see him laugh.

Li Dao, Zhang Ji, and Xu Rong faced him, but their expressions were not as sincere as Huangfu Song.

If he can't get a big victory, I'm afraid that a few people will show contempt for him.

"Governor, please!"

Li Jing wanted to check Panlong Pass, Xu Rong could only lead the way honestly, and he also wanted to see how Li Jing won Panlong Pass.

Panlong Pass is relatively narrow, not suitable for the army to attack, only suitable for a small team to attack, 50 meters high, respectively, there are three interlayers, it stands to reason that it is not difficult to fight down, the army can be taken down by pressing, but the difficulty is narrow, there are more people can not be opened, and there are fewer people and there is no effect.

Under the leadership of Xu Rong, Li Jing looked at Panlong Pass from a distance, and he had to shout at Panlong Pass in his heart, this Panlong Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is a natural defensive Xiongguan.

"Dudu, the first layer of Panlong Pass is guarded by the army of the Eastern Empire, the second layer has archers ambushing, and the third layer has rolling stones and wood!"

Xu Rong stood beside Li Jing and told Li Jing about the defensive layout of Panlong Pass.

"Build more trebuchets, call me every day, and if they don't come out, they will use trebuchets to smash them!"

When Li Jing heard Xu Rong's words, he sneered, the level is good, but in this world, there is no Xiongguan that cannot be defeated, and the Eastern Empire has not built Panlong Pass for a long time, there must be many places that have not been perfected, this is his chance.

Trebuchet, Xu Rong looked at Li Jing, can this trebuchet be smashed up?

"General Xu, ordinary trebuchets can't be smashed, but you don't need to worry, give me one night's time, and when I draw the drawings of the trebuchet, this Panpan Pass is not a Longtan tiger's den!"

"Now go find more carpenters, and blacksmiths!"

Li Jing wanted to establish his prestige among the more than 200,000 troops, and this Panlong Pass was an opportunity for him to win over the hearts of the army.

"If!"

Xu Rong received the order, and he also had a trace of expectation for Li Jing in his heart.

"Marshal, do you think we can hold Panlong Pass?"

Suddenly? A general beside him received Li Jing with more than 200,000 troops, and he was worried about whether his 20,000 people could hold the newly built Panlong Pass.

"Don't worry, we are just a symbolic defense in this battle, the emperor doesn't want to spend a lot of money to build a city, it's not terrible to lose the level!"

Suddenly? He was very confident in his army, and he expanded Pingyin to present Lunge so that Tao Song could build this military fortress, and then he fought back in World War I.

"Marshal, in fact, we can build it ourselves, why do such a superfluous thing?"

"Huo Yun, do you know how much manpower and materials it will take to build this passage?"

"Although my Eastern Empire has occupied the Gate of Space, don't forget, the location of the Gate of Space is the Demon Beast Mountain Range, where there are all kinds of monster beasts, all of them are deep mountains and old forests that have not been developed, and the empire still has to defend our great enemy, the Yamara Empire, and there is no extra material to use here!"

"Besides, haven't you noticed, this country is now a melee of princes, the most powerful princes, there are not more than a million soldiers and horses, but the army of my Eastern Empire is tens of millions!"

Suddenly? This is a little bit of Tao Song in his eyes, and he is not worried that after losing the territory, he will not be able to fight back.

"Marshal, I'm also very puzzled, we fought with the Amara Empire for rough ore in the deep valley plain, and big wars broke out every year, and finally went to let the wolf-headed people pick up the cheap, what does the emperor think?"

"Huo Yun, that's training, the emperor needs strong troops, let the wolf-headed people pick up the cheap, it's just raising pigs, as long as we occupy the deep valley and defeat the ama, the wolf-headed man is just a little stronger ant!"

Suddenly? As the leader of the Zhennan Legion and an important minister of the Eastern Empire, it is not beneficial for the empire to fight, and it is much easier for him to see it than his subordinates below.
