On the Demon Spirit Continent, the border area of the feudal Qi Kingdom is basically demarcated by the first longest river of the Demon Spirit, that is, the Xuanling River, the mother river on the Demon Spirit Continent. The Xuanling River is sourced from the snow-capped mountains of the Qilian Mountains in the north and flows all the way to the southern coast. Whether it is the mountains in the north or the capital of Qi in the south, Xuancheng, and the feudal cities of Lingcheng and Shengcheng in the north. Basically, it was a defensive and offensive confrontation situation that revolved around the Xuanling River. On the junction line between the Qi State and the Feng State that runs through thousands of miles, there is only one military stronghold, which is not too close to the mother river on the Demon Spirit Continent, that is, the most majestic pass in the south of Qi and even the entire Demon Spirit Continent, bordering the pass in the east.

Since the establishment of the Qi State, Donglinguan has been an important barrier for Qi's defense of the feudal country for more than 300 years, and the internal garrison of Donglinguan alone has reached nearly 10,000 people, plus the 20,000 troops who retreated from outside Ruocheng City to Donglinguan in the previous days. This brought the number of troops guarding the eastern border pass to 30,000. Moreover, Donglinguan was personally commanded by the three lieutenant generals of Chen Jie, the governor of the southern part of the Qi State. These three lieutenant generals are the earliest generals who followed Chen Jie, and they are also the people Chen Jie trusts the most. When Chen Jie served as the governor of the southern part of Qi and did not have military power, these three lieutenant generals replaced Chen Jie and became the leaders in the army.

These three deputy generals followed Chen Jie and experienced more than ten years of training, and they have already developed the discerning eye for people and the ability to lead the army. Chen Jie trusts his three lieutenants very much, and they do have a strong ability to take charge of themselves. However, the three lieutenants were not convinced by each other, and Chen Jie also knew that if he insisted on choosing one of the three leaders, the other two would inevitably be unconvinced and cause civil strife. In this regard, Chen Jie simply turned the three of them into equals, and only owed allegiance to himself and the rulers of the Qi State. This has eased the contradictions between them to a certain extent.

And now that Chen Jie is trapped in Ruocheng, these three lieutenants have no spiritual and soul leaders. I was a little at a loss for a while. Fortunately, now that the enemy is present, the 30,000 elite troops of the First Hall of the Sealed War Society have been attacking the Donglin Pass for several days, and the army of the Third Hall of the Feng War Society also arrived at the foot of the East Linguan City last night and participated in today's siege battle. In the face of such a strong enemy, these three lieutenant generals did not pursue too much about power and the command of the army, and worked together to fight against foreign enemies. Only then did he repel attack after attack.

A red glow rose from the east pass, and the city head of the east pass was already stained with the blood of the fallen soldiers and the broken armor. Standing on the tower of the city at the head is Jin Xu, the most proficient of Chen Jie's three lieutenants, who is good at hand-to-hand combat and defending the city. Jin Xu Chinese New Year's Eve is seven years old today, since thirteen years ago as a guard to follow Chen Jie in the southern and northern wars, after experiencing two small battles with the feudal country, Chen Jie found this Jin Xu's power, not only because he can take the lead in the army of ten thousand troops, but also what surprised Chen Jie is that he once led three hundred soldiers to guard a county town, and he resisted the attack of nearly 10,000 people in the feudal country for fifteen days, providing a good opportunity for them to counterattack. In the end, Jin Xu was able to climb all the way up until now he has become one of Chen Jie's three lieutenants.

Because Jin Xu's strength as a general lies in fighting and defending the city, the guards and defenses on the east side of the city tower have basically been mobilized by this Jin Xu. Jin Xu also took the lead, wearing white armor and holding a golden long knife, leading more than 100 cronies and soldiers and civilians guarding the city to patrol the city wall, repelling the troops who climbed up the east gate tower everywhere. Jin Xu has become a barrier to the east of the pass. If the Feng Zhan Association wants to attack the East Linguan, the first thing to clear out must be this general who commands the army. However, Jin Xu was extremely loyal to the Qi State, or to Chen Jie, the southern governor of the Qi State. Feng Zhanhui once secretly sent someone to contact him to seal him, and the high-ranking officials Houlu were all categorically rejected by him.

Chen Jie's other two lieutenants do not have Jin Xu's burly figure and supernatural martial arts, but their command and handling of political issues are much stronger than Jin Xu. The other two lieutenants are named Li Xin and Zhang Lingyi, comparatively speaking, Li Xin is best at handling grain and grass transportation, handling logistics, and ensuring the safety of the rear. Although Li Xin also has martial arts, he is far inferior to Jin Xu and even inferior to another deputy general, Zhang Lingyi. He has also been following Chen Jie since he was appointed as a general, and now he has been following him for more than ten years.

Zhang Lingyi has some differences with Li Xin and Jin Xu, he is actually a member of the Yue ethnic group in the north of Qi State. At the time of the Mocha uprising of the Yue tribe, he existed as the chief of the guard of the Mocha Forbidden Army. The Yue were defeated, and he covered the retreat of Mocha and was captured. finally surrendered to Chen Jie and became his general, and finally became one of his three henchmen.

Chen Jie was originally just like Mocha, using this Zhang Lingyi as a loyal chief of guard. Later, after the test of actual combat and military training, Chen Jie keenly discovered that this Zhang Lingyi's talent was far more than that. He can shoot a three-stone bow and still hit the bull's-eye from a hundred and fifty paces. He is good at controlling the overall situation, and his ability to deploy troops and strategize is even similar to Chen Jie. Originally, Chen Jie had the intention of promoting Zhang Lingyi to be the head of the three deputy generals, but then he was worried that his Yue identity might not be recognized by Jin Xu and Li Xin, so he finally gave up.

Now, Li Xin went to Jincheng to escort the grain, and the original grain storage in Donglinguan was not much, and it was all transported by Ruocheng or Jincheng. Now that Donglinguan has suddenly increased by nearly 20,000 troops, can the pressure on grain and grass not increase suddenly?

So, in desperation, Li Xin could only set off to Jincheng alone to urge grain and grass. Although the reinforcements have arrived in Jincheng, this support soldier has already explained his helplessness, because a large number of feudal troops have appeared in the north at the same time, and the demon spirit secret envoy has found out that this is the 30,000 elite soldiers of the second hall of the feudal war meeting. If this army attacks Xuancheng, the consequences of Xuancheng will be unimaginable, you must know that Xuancheng is now only garrisoned by 3,000 people. Although the support army had full authority, they did not dare to set out rashly to any place in the north or south.

After Li Xin left, only the two deputy generals Jin Xu and Zhang Lingyi were left to command the army in the east of the pass. And the division of power between these two people is also very clear, Zhang Lingyi is responsible for strategic command, and Jin Xu is responsible for guarding and mobilizing the city.

There are two city gates in the east of Linguan, and these two city gates face each other. A city gate is still open, and this city gate is the city gate that leads to the interior of Qi through the east gate, and there are even people who come and go through this city gate. On the other side, the gate leading to the closed country has been closed for a long time.

At the head of the east gate, Jin Xu, who was the leader, was still wearing a white cherry helmet standing above the east gate tower. His face was extremely solemn, and he was very worried about the future of Qi Kingdom.

The sentinels sent to various parts of the Qi country have returned, and the news from two days ago has come, which undoubtedly surprised Jin Xu. Huicheng fell into the hands of the Ming people, and the defender Zhang Dao led more than a thousand remnants of troops to retreat to the camp below the Hengduan Mountains, and he now only had 4,000 troops in his hands, and there was no cover of the walls of Huicheng. Jin Xu didn't know how much time Zhang Dao could last. However, now the people who are guarding the East Border Pass are also about to be unable to protect themselves. Yesterday, the 30,000 new troops of the Sealed War Association joined and participated in the siege battle, which made the defenders of Donglin Pass suddenly feel great pressure. Although the people are very supportive of the Qi State and support them against the attack of the Sealing War Society. But in fact, Jin Xu was very unconfident about whether he could repel the attack of the Sealing War Society.

In the nearly half-month defense battle, there were no less than 300 soldiers of the feudal kingdom who were personally skilled. The soldiers on the towers and the spontaneous people used bows and arrows and stones to repel the attacks of the Feudal Society. Of course, Jin Xu also understands that the three halls of the Fengzhan Society are light cavalry assaults, and they do not carry siege weapons, and even these 30,000 elite troops are mainly cavalry teams that cannot participate in the siege. To tell the truth, the number of troops that can participate in the battle is not very large, and at most only more than 10,000 people can participate in the siege of the city.

But now, since the 30,000 troops of the three halls of the Sealed War Society participated in the attack at the same time, the pressure on the tower of the eastern border gate has suddenly become very great, and the number of troops participating in the battle has increased exponentially, reaching nearly 30,000 people. As a result, the pressure above the East Pass became very great, and in such a morning, the upper part of the East Pass was already covered with the corpses of fallen soldiers and messy discarded weapons. Today, nearly 500 people have been killed in battle and suffered heavy losses. The siege battle in the afternoon had not yet begun, and it was not known how many more soldiers would be lost in the afternoon. Thinking of this, Jin Xu was a little worried, he stared at the misty smoke condensed above the camp of the continuous feudal army in the distance, Jin Xu took a bite of a piece of Hu cake handed by the guard, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Just as Jin Xu was sighing for a long time, an unhurried voice came from under the castle tower and a figure wearing a red robe, a short sword pinned to his waist, a heroic face, a comfortable and sunny smile, and came with the voice. I could only hear his voice coming, "What is the eldest brother worried about?"

When Jin Xu heard this, his spirit couldn't help but be secretly shocked, and he realized that the person who came was none other than Zhang Lingyi. Zhang Lingyi is resourceful and often able to come up with unexpected ideas. Jin Xu couldn't care about many others now, so he hurriedly cheered up and asked in a low voice: "Is there a good way for the virtuous brother?"

PS: The three generals under Governor Chen Jie are all extraordinary, and they are definitely not idle people, and these three lieutenants also have their own strengths. It's just that the three of them are very convinced of each other? Of course, at the moment of the great enemy, they will definitely work together to resist the enemy. You can think about it, who knows how to forbear, who knows how to forbear, and who can wait for an opportunity? As the situation becomes clearer, they will eventually grow up
