"Hanguan is further ahead is Ning County, and as soon as Ning County passes, Los Angeles will arrive. We quickened our march and tried to get there before the city was breached. Los Angeles has a population of nearly 100,000, once it is lost......" Wen Xingxing didn't finish speaking, but Shen Enlai already understood.

"What's going on in L.A. right now?" Nan Huaijin looked at the map, and his index finger pointed again and again at the dot-sized Los Angeles on the map. He is hundreds of thousands of lives at this point.

"The defender of the city is Li Qi, Li Yunheng's cousin. Los Angeles garrisoned 30,000 troops, and the Korean siege was 70,000 troops. If there are no reinforcements, Los Angeles will not be able to survive. We're afraid it's too late to get there. Fortunately, there are 20,000 troops stationed in Hanguan, and 10,000 have been sent to the rescue. Although it cannot be said that the defeat can be turned into a victory, it is still feasible in time to delay until we arrive. ”

"Who is the garrison in Hanguan?" Shen Enlai asked.

"Zhou Kang." Wen Xingxing frowned when he mentioned this name.

"Zhou Kang was originally a member of the Three Princes, and after the accident of the Three Princes, the Zhou family switched to the Prince's family. However, as far as I know, Zhou Kang and Li Qi have always been at odds...... "Hearsay is not credible." Wen Xingxing has always held the right to speak in the prince's party. He understands the filthiness between insiders more accurately.

"Zhou Kang, when he was originally at the third brother's place, he has stumbled over the years for those who support the second brother. Later, the third brother had an accident, and the second brother thought that he was still a talent, and besides, the second brother never agreed to divide the court because of partisan disputes. But although the minister who had suffered Zhou Kang's loss before didn't dare to say much because of the second brother, he still had a lot of arguments with him in private. Moreover, many people believe that Zhou Kang is not talented and practical, but he is better than winning people's hearts and setting an example for merit, and he is the most minister. "When a person dies, what he fought and snatched in life seems a little ridiculous. Love and hate have also faded, flesh and blood, brothers. In the end, it only turned into a second brother and a third brother.

"If this person is really such a character......" Nan Huaijin frowned.

"Let's speed up the trip." Shen Enlai was afraid that Luocheng would not be able to hold on.

"No matter how fast the army is, it can't go anywhere. We can only speed up the pace with the first march. ”

"We must take L.A. tomorrow!"

Yeluqiao waved his palm and pulled all the chess pieces inserted on the sand table in front of him to the ground. Los Angeles can't be captured, what's the use of the sand table full of Korean chess pieces?! His gaze was gloomy, like a venomous snake.

"Pass the order, attack to the death! No matter the cost! When I enter Los Angeles, I will let 100,000 people in the entire Los Angeles City be buried with the sacrificed soldiers! ”

At this time, in Los Angeles, due to the multi-day battle of defending the city, the Korean army was prepared to be menacing, and attacked from the border of Zhao at night, and captured the border on the second day. Slaughtered all the way to Los Angeles.

Li Qi has heard the name of Yelu Qiaoheng, a Korean fierce general, who is murderous and violent. He and another South Korean general, Helian Zhenzhen, formed two completely different attitudes in South Korea's armed forces.

There is another one on the bridge of Jerod, and the world calls him the king of the living Hades. If there is resistance to the city that he has attacked, after he has taken it, he will surely slaughter it. As a result, he was often faced with two completely different choices from the enemy: either he heard that the enemy general was him, gave up resistance and surrendered directly, or he swore to fight to the death, because once the city was broken, there was no chance of survival.

Helian Zhen is known as the Smiling Tiger. He is not as heavy and bloody as Yelu Hengqiao, he pays more attention to strategy. After capturing the city, he did not slaughter the city, nor did he burn and loot. Rather, it is to bring Korean politics to new lands. Turning this city into an appendage of Korea once and for all. In this way, his military exploits are bound to be less prominent than those of Yelu Hengqiao, but the benefits of his management of the city are far less difficult to resist than the hatred suppressed by Yelu Hengqiao. Therefore, he has always had a place in the Korean court.

At this time, Los Angeles was facing the Yelu Hengqiao, which was quickly attacking the city at any cost. Li Qi stood on the city wall, the remnant sun was like blood, reflecting the entire sky in a fiery red, Li Qi was red everywhere he could see, he didn't know if it was too much blood he had seen in these days, or if it should have been this color this day.

When it gets dark, the Yelu Bridge will definitely attack at night. Then, there will be another fierce battle...... Li Qi took a deep breath, but the wound in his abdomen was touched, and he swallowed the bloody taste in his mouth. The adjutant general beside him said, "Tang Lang, pass the order, it's getting dark." The soldiers seized the time to recuperate and recuperate, and were ready to face the battle at any time. ”

Tang Lang's face was covered with blood stains and scars, and he couldn't see his true face for a while. He clenched his sword tightly with his remaining left hand and bowed to Li Qi, "Your subordinates obey the order." ”

"Eat—"

"Get up, get up—"

The dead city wall instantly became lively, with a hint of human life.

"Count the number of people." Tang Lang passed the order on.

A young general under his command showed a sad face, "Vice General Tang, we people, there are not many left......"

Tang Lang glanced at him, but he also knew that he was telling the truth, there were too many enemies, and Yelu Hengqiao's fighting style was fierce and tight, not giving them a chance to breathe at all. It's not easy to make it this far.

"General, General—" There was a sudden rush from under the city walls.

Tang Lang stretched out a handful of his left hand and grabbed the little soldier who ran towards it, Rao only had one hand, and the whole person was still stumbled by the recruit's egg.

"What are you shouting, what are you anxious about? There are no rules, what's the matter? Tang Lang didn't plan to let him go, this person's identity has not been confirmed, the general is the commander of an army, and anyone can go forward.

"General, all the middle-aged men in the city have gathered at the gate of the city. They said they were going to kill the enemy together. As soon as the soldier's words came out, the faces of the soldiers present showed joy. Although he is not trained in the barracks, there is always a better chance of winning with one more person.

"Look, this is the people of our country. It's our compatriots, it's the people we want to protect! Tang Lang laughed. Then a group of people was summoned down to the city wall to register.

The two armies are fighting, and it is feared that enemy spies will be mixed in, so it is prudent to be cautious. A comrade-in-arms is a person who can show his back without reservation, but a spy is not.

Li Qi, who was on the city wall, also noticed the movement on this side. After learning about the situation, there was silence for a long time.

The night was completely dark, the firelight illuminated the whole night, and the stars filled the sky like day.

"General, general—" Li Qi felt the countless figures in front of him shaking, and his ears were filled with shouts one after another. He plunged his spear deep into the wall, and the whole person found a point of support.

"The night is kept." This thought flashed through Li Qi's mind.

————

"General, it's no good, reinforcements from Los Angeles have arrived!"

Yelu Hengqiao kicked on the body of the person who delivered the news, "What are you yelling, don't I have eyes?" ”

This kick is more like venting the anger that the city was not captured last night and the reinforcements arrived today.

"The Lu soldiers are coming in from the southwest, and they must have sent advance troops to find out the situation while we were resting. In the southwest, our forces are weak, and I am afraid that we will not be able to stop them. ”

Yelu crossed the bridge and walked out of the tent and looked not far away, raising an army of yellow sand. clenched his fists.

"Los Angeles can't be captured, so let's pack up and go back to China to be punished. Why are you stunned, how many people are intercepted, and then send people to check, how many reinforcements are there? The bridge opened. With a glance, the generals who had gathered around him instantly dispersed.

The city gate was wide open, and Zhou Kang led his troops to enter quickly, only to find that it was not the officers and soldiers who opened the city gate, but ordinary people.

Then I enlarged my field of vision, and as far as the eye could see, it became corpses everywhere. Xu had just experienced a fierce battle, and he hadn't had time to clean up his body. Not far away, women and children are moving bodies to one place...... The scene he saw made Zhou Kang's face turn pale in an instant.

L.A., what's going on?

After going to the city wall, he knew that Los Angeles was still Los Angeles, and it was still standing here after the sun, moon, wind and frost, unchanged for eternity. And people will die, and the soldiers in Los Angeles are almost dead.

"Li Qi, I rushed over to save you anyway. When the reinforcements arrived, they didn't say hello? Zhou Kang said as he approached Li Qi, who was standing on the city wall. When I got closer, I felt that something seemed wrong with this person.

He walked further forward and stood completely in front of Li Qi. Li Qi's mouth has not been opened, and he always likes to stare at his eyes and close them tightly. Zhou Kang stretched out his hand to probe Li Qi's breath. He's dead.

"General...... The general said before that he was the commander-in-chief and could not fall. Otherwise, the morale of the army will be unstable. He leaned on the spear with one last breath, and we didn't dare touch him......" A small soldier around him had red eyes, and the words he said were intermittent and made people's hearts tighten.

Zhou Kang swallowed his saliva and reached out to lay Li Qi's body flat on the ground. Sensing that someone was approaching, he restrained the expression on his face and looked at the lieutenant general on the side.

"General......" The adjutant general glanced at Li Qi on the ground and then looked at him. Lowered her voice and leaned closer to his ear to speak.

"Almost all the soldiers in Los Angeles are dead...... Li Qi also died. We only have 10,000 reinforcements. I heard that South Korea sent 100,000 troops this time, and the commander was Yelu Hengqiao...... We're afraid we don't have a chance of winning. I don't know if I can hold out until His Royal Highness King Xun arrives. Now that His Majesty has ascended the throne, we have no foundation. Why don't you blame Li Qi for the loss of Los Angeles. It's important for us to protect ourselves. ”
