Chapter 225: The Strange Qiu Jiaao
"It's over, it's a mistake, it's all lost, our army of one million!" Zuo Yun sighed, in the White Tiger Empire, he can also be regarded as a famous general.
Although it is not as good as the four generalissimos of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, it is also an outstanding general.
originally thought that with the head-to-head confrontation of a million troops, they could completely defeat this garrison, and even the more than 200,000 troops who rushed to the rescue were not a problem.
However, it was only now that he realized that he was wrong, that the combat power that a powerful force of only 50,000 people could possess had reached a terrifying level.
The endless attack methods, the huge lethality, and every release deeply shocked Zuo Yun's heart.
Such a team, even in the White Tiger Empire, has never had, although there are only 50,000 people, but the sudden explosive power makes them enough to compete with hundreds of thousands of troops.
"It's all the miscellaneous pieces of the Snow God Sect, if they hadn't escaped from the battle, our army wouldn't have fallen into the encirclement!" said a partial general.
Zuo Yun shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Don't blame them, it's my own ineffective command!"
Originally, they had the opportunity to lead the army to retreat, but Zuo Yun chose to take Qingcheng greedily, which is why it led to such a situation.
"Retreat! Retreat now, we can still save some troops, if we continue to fight fiercely, I'm afraid we will only end up with a total annihilation!" Zuo Yun said.
The partial general still didn't speak after all, and under the command of Zuo Yun, the coalition forces began to quickly get closer, changing formations, and slowly retreating backwards.
Of course, those coalition troops who were disrupted by the Five Elements Banner and the 200,000 Dragon Teng Army could no longer join the large army, but Zuo Yun could only see all this.
"Follow meβ" Nangong Lie flew over and stepped onto a fiery red war horse, and the Hundred Battle Swords shook the sky.
The 500,000 army followed, chasing and killing Zuoyun's army until more than 30 miles, destroying nearly 100,000 enemies before giving up!
And by the time Nangong Lie came back, the battle on Nangong Ruoli's side had already ended, and the entire 400,000 army had been killed and remained on the battlefield in Qingcheng forever.
In this battle, the Longteng Army, which was not dominant, was guided by the extraordinary combat effectiveness of the Five Elements Banner, and actually annihilated more than 600,000 enemies, and Zuo Yun only withdrew from Qingzhou with less than 400,000 remnants.
And the 800,000 Longteng Army, with only less than 100,000 casualties, is undoubtedly a huge victory, and can even be described as a complete victory.
After cleaning up the battlefield, a group of soldiers returned to Qingcheng, and so far, the two important cities of Qingcheng and Hongcheng all fell into the hands of the Longteng army.
Nangong Lie Leng Ruhan and Meteor led 100,000 troops to defend Hongcheng, and left 100,000 soldiers and horses to garrison Qingcheng, counting the troops, and there were still about 500,000 troops left who could fight.
Of course, this also includes the warriors of the Five Elements Banner with superior combat strength, after three days of rest, after the exhaustion of a big battle has subsided, Nangong Lie has already begun to think about continuing to attack.
"Ruoli, this time I can successfully take Qingcheng and Hongcheng, thanks to your strategy and command, I will hand it over to you, you come and tell everyone, what should we do next?" Nangong Lie said with a smile.
A group of veterans in the Longteng Army have shifted their attention to Nangong Ruoli, after this battle, all the soldiers of the Longteng Army.
They admired this genius young general who was only fifteen years old, so when Nangong Lie asked Nangong Ruoli this time, they didn't feel the slightest bit wrong.
Nangong Ruoli tapped his index finger lightly on the table, always with that little signature evil smile on his face, but he didn't speak.
Beicang Jing looked at his underwhelming appearance, and his heart was secretly clear, this guy must have come up with some kind of trick, and it seems that the enemy is going to be unlucky again.
If Nangong Ruoli knew that Beicang Jing was thinking like this, he would definitely be unable to help but rush forward and kiss the two fiercely, Beicang's wife really knew herself too well.
But seeing him not talking like this, there are many people who are unhappy in their hearts, Princess Crescent, who is one of them.
"Stinky boy, what are you pretending to be deep there, what are your good plans to say quickly, everyone is waiting for you to speak, what nonsense are you thinking there?"
Huo Tianhong also shook her head secretly on the side, bickering! It seems that Xinyue has never been Nangong Ruoli's opponent, it seems that she is going to be "tortured" again, and the corners of her mouth can't help but show a wry smile.
Nangong Ruoli glanced up at her and grinned: "Of course I'm thinking about serious things, for example, why is the butt of a violent woman so big... β
"You-" Xinyue's face was slightly red, if she was usually so embarrassed, but at this time, as a princess of a country, and there were so many soldiers and soldiers present, her face was a little unbearable.
"Uncle Nangong, look at the stinky boyβ" Xinyue asked Nangong Lie for help when he landed.
After all, she is the princess of the empire, Nangong Lie is not a confused person, although she also laughed secretly in her heart, but she said in her mouth: "If you leave, hurry up and study serious things!"
"Daddy speaks, naturally he has to listen, I don't actually have any ideas, obey the order is!" Nangong Ruoli said with a smile.
Nangong Lie knew his son's character very well, and expected that he had already made up his mind in his heart, but he didn't say it for some reason, so he was no longer reluctant.
He immediately pointed to the map in front of him and said: "There are three ways to attack in front of us, and after the enemy withdraws from Qingzhou, he will inevitably be stationed in the three cities of Xingcheng, Xianghuai City and Boyang City, which are far away from us!"
Everyone nodded, Nangong Ruoli also nodded slightly, what his father said was right, after the enemy retreated, he would definitely defend these three cities.
Among the three cities, Xianghuai City and Boyang City are relatively close to each other, and they can be reached in about two hours after marching at full speed.
However, Xingcheng and these two cities are far apart, and even if they are non-stop, it will take a day and a night to be able to arrive.
These common senses are known to everyone here, so Nangong Lie didn't explain too much, and immediately pointed to a small road: "This path is the only variable, if the defenders of Xianghuai City want to support Xingcheng, if they take this path, it will only take an hour to arrive!"
"Huh?" Nangong Ruoli looked at the place where his father's finger pointed, it was a mountain col, called Qiujiaao, between the two peaks, it was an extremely remote path.
However, judging from the location on the map, it is more than ten times shorter, and my father said that it is understandable that he has saved so much time.
"In this case, the safety factor of attacking Xingcheng is better than attacking Boyang City!" Nangong Ruoli said slightly.
Nangong Lie said with a smile: "That's not the case, I haven't finished my words yet, although this Qiu Jiaao is an extremely close road, it has some mysteries, so that it has always been a desolation!"
"Oh?" Nangong Ruoli was interested, and looked at Nangong Lie with a smile: "I want to hear about it!"
Nangong Lie glared at him, and then said: "This Qiujiaao was originally a small mountain village, but now it is desolate, all because the terrain of this Qiujiaao is a little weird!"
"There are often some inexplicable strong suction, some villagers when farming, the kitchen utensils will be inexplicably sucked away, sticking to the nearby boulders, the villagers think it is a ghost, so they have left Qiujiaao! Nangong Lie immediately spoke.
Some of the people who knew the situation did not speak, and some of them did not know this, and they all showed surprised looks, but Nangong Ruoli's eyes flashed with an inexplicable look of surprise.
"Dad, the White Tiger Empire doesn't necessarily know about that Qiu Jiaao, if Xingcheng is attacked, there is a chance that it will march from this Qiu Jiaao, so there must be an ambush there!" Nangong Ruo left the mouth.
When Nangong Lie heard this, there was a wry smile on his face, this kid's courage is really not small.
