Chapter 294: The Mo Family Arrives
The sound of the crumbling horses' hooves, like a dull thunder, shocked the Chu soldiers who were still cheering for Long Ao. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In a short confrontation before, the losses of Meng Tian's troops were not serious, and the momentum of sprinting towards the city gate was even more terrifying.
"Close the gates!" Above the city gate, a group of Chu soldiers also reacted immediately.
However, Chen Cheng was originally an important town in the Chu State, the city was high and thick, and the city gate was naturally extremely heavy. With the joint efforts of several people, the gates began to close little by little.
"General! They're going to block the gates! ”
The exclamation of his subordinates made Long Ao frown involuntarily.
"A young man who is no more than the age of a weak crown has such courage. No wonder at such an age, you can become a general of the army! ”
"Step! Trample! Trample! ”
The Qin army camp, a group of Qin State foot soldiers, also rushed out of the camp in the shortest possible time. Even, before the most basic formation was set, they began to run towards the city gate.
"General?" The lieutenant general on the side also saw the running foot soldier and asked softly.
The 20,000 Qin army was naturally not enough to resist the iron cavalry of their Tenglong Legion, but it was really not cost-effective to give the Qin army a huge opportunity to attack the city for the sake of 20,000 people.
"Forget it, Chen Cheng matters." Long Ao raised his hand and motioned for the legion to slow down.
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
Meng Tian, who was already a stone's throw away from the city gate, couldn't help but have a smile on the corner of his mouth when he saw the Dragon Legion slowing down.
"Back to camp!" Meng Tian turned his horse's head and withdrew in the direction of the Qin army's camp.
Meng Tian's departure made the Chu soldiers who were still nervous breathe a sigh of relief. Now near the city wall, there are not many soldiers at all, and if they really rush over, the victory or defeat is unpredictable.
"Let's go into town too!" Looking at the Qin army that was gradually widening in distance, Long Ao had no intention of pursuing, and directly took advantage of the fact that the city gate was not closed, and headed towards the city.
"The last general Meng Tian, thank you for saving your life!"
As soon as he returned to the camp, Meng Tian knelt down on one knee and thanked Bai Qi. If he hadn't sent infantry to deter Long Ao regardless of his previous suspicions, I'm afraid he would really have to block the city gate.
Bai Qi also nodded, and he was extremely satisfied with Meng Tian in his heart.
Although Meng Tian couldn't see Long Ao's plan, the courage to adapt to the situation and let go of arrogance afterwards was commendable.
"Captain Meng has worked hard, take your subordinates, go and rest."
"General Xie!"
……
At the same time, in the eastern part of the Chu State, a Chu army with a flag fluttering was quietly approaching the Qin army stationed outside Juyang City.
However, although there was no noise during the march of the troops. However, it was quickly discovered by the scout troops of the Qin army.
Without him, just because there are too many people in this army.
"General, 200,000 Chu troops have arrived outside Juyang City!" A personal soldier walked into Wang Qian's big tent, bent down and saluted.
"Is it coming?"
Wang Jian raised his head, and there was no trace of surprise in his flat eyes.
Juyang, located in the west of Chu State, is not too far from Chendi, but only two hundred miles. However, it is an important gateway to the west of the Chu State.
Ever since he knew that the Qin army was advancing, Xiang Yan immediately made a decision.
Long Ao took the Tenglong Legion to temporarily aid Chendi, and then recruited people from all over the country to serve as foot soldiers and defend Chencheng together. And he led the elite Chu army to destroy this 100,000 enemy.
"It's a pity that Xiang Yan is destined to run for nothing this time!" A smile appeared in Wang Qian's eyes, and he muttered to himself.
"Why is the Qin army camped, no one has reported it!" In the camp of the Chu army, Xiang Yan's roaring voice made the generals of the Chu State silent.
Wang Jian attacked Juyang a few days ago, but more than ten miles behind the original camp, another large camp was placed. By the time Xiang Yan climbed the city wall, the original camp was already empty.
The camp in another place is not only easy to defend and difficult to attack, but also can prevent the Chu army from cutting off the grain route. Obviously, this partial division is ready to make long-term preparations with the Chu army.
"Father! Now we have to go back to the ground. Chen Di has no danger to defend, and may be able to cripple the Qin army. "Xiang Yan's eldest son, Xiang Chao asked for his life.
Xiang Yan shook his head and sighed: "Giving the initiative to the other party, tired of running around, is unwise." Moreover, even so, once Wang Ben's army arrives, we will still be unable to defeat the Qin army after all. ”
"If you want to defeat the Qin army, the only breakthrough can only be on the 100,000 army in front of you!" Xiang Yan slapped the table and shouted.
However, if you want to say that you want to conquer the Qin army camp that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, how can it be so simple? For a moment, there was silence again in the big tent.
"General! Outside the camp, there was a group of people who claimed to be members of the Mo family. The voice of a soldier rang out outside the tent, breaking the peace inside the tent.
"The Mo family?" Xiang Yan frowned.
If the Mo family was willing to help them before, Xiang Yan would definitely go out of the village to greet them immediately. However, since the Mo family was defeated by the public loser, the mechanism technique that he has always been proud of has also been questioned by the world.
"Father, after all, the Mo family has a deep heritage, let's see it." Xiang Chao saw Xiang Yan frowning, he knew Xiang Yan's thoughts, and immediately spoke.
"Well, it's up to you to meet your father on your behalf." Xiang Yan thought for a moment, nodded lightly and said.
Xiang Chao opened his mouth, and when he saw Xiang Yan's sad appearance, he could only promise and walked towards the outside of the camp.
"The Xiang family, Xiang Chao, have seen all the righteous men of the Mo family!" Xiang Chao said loudly, courteous and thoughtful.
However, the people of the Mo family are not idiots, and seeing that it was not Xiang Yan, the commander of the three armies, who greeted them, they couldn't help but feel a little angry in their hearts.
However, Yan Dan, who was the leader, did not say anything, but arched his hand and saluted: "Yan Dan, the giant of the Mo family, please see General Xiang Yan!" ”
"The Mo family giant?" Xiang Chao looked at the black-robed man in front of him, revealing a look of surprise, and then hurriedly bent down and saluted Yan Dan again.
"Xiang Chaoli is not careful, but he doesn't know the respect of Prince Yan!"
"Yan Dan is no longer the Prince of Yan, he is just stealing the position of the giant." Yan Dan shook his head, and there was no trace of sadness on his cold face.
"In addition to the trap beasts of my Mo family, Yan Dan brought this time, there is something I want to tell General Xiang Yan about."
Xiang Chao's eyes slightly skimmed over the five majestic White Tiger Trap Beasts in the distance, and in his heart, he was afraid that this was left by the Mo family in the stronghold of the Chu State. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to get here so quickly.
However, Xiang Chao was more interested in what the news in Yan Dan's mouth was, and listening to the tone, it was even more important than these beasts of the Mo family. (To be continued.) )
