Chapter 225: The War Is in a Stalemate

Chapter 225: The War Is in a Stalemate

The small movements of the two people, Xia Hourui can see it at a glance. But he didn't think much about it, and continued to study the battle map with his head down.

He knows better than anyone what the virtues of the people under his command are. I know what I have done openly and secretly. Or rather, he knows better than the gang themselves.

Although there is no reliable one when doing things. He also speaks with a big grin, completely without his brain. But when it's time to get down to business, those ones are better than monkeys. Strategy, one is stronger than the other. So after getting off the battlefield, no matter how much he didn't talk to the side, he wouldn't pay attention to it.

Seeing him like this, the other people sitting around, you look at me, I look at you, and finally shrugged their shoulders speechlessly.

Their great generals are good at everything. Strong ability, high strategy, decisive work, people look like they have nothing to say, and they are resolute and tough. The only downside is that no matter what time it is, it's all about the board. To put it simply, it's boring.

The time of the war always seems to pass. The night was soon driven away by the coming dawn.

As soon as the day dawned, the passionate sound of war drums resounded in the sky. The sound was like thunder, deafening.

The sound of fighting followed. The two armies fought, the momentum was magnificent, and the shouts were bursting. The sky is dark, and the sun and the moon are covered with dust.

King Jingnan's army, after a night's rest, regained its morale. But after all, it can't be defeated, the opponent's tiger and wolf army. After fighting hard, it couldn't be held up in the end.

Seeing that the defeat was unstoppable, Long Qingyang's heart became more and more anxious. The order came out last night. After all these hours, there is no sign of reinforcements, and the feeling of bad in my heart has increased greatly.

He didn't know what was going on, but he didn't have to guess that it wasn't a good thing. But I never imagined that his reinforcements would not be able to come.

A soldier rushed in.

"Report! Lord Wang, something is wrong! The army of General Kuangyi on the platform ...... yesterday night In, in the city of Huai'an, besieged by Yan Liang, the king of Pingnan. It was destroyed in the early hours of this morning. General Kuang was killed, and none of the 100,000 troops survived. ”

The soldiers who came to pay their respects, when they talked about the back, their faces turned pale, and cold sweat couldn't stop flowing down. Judging from the informant, the prince in front of him, if there is no follow-up move, I am afraid that he will not be far from the general trend.

My heart is secretly tight, but don't be angry and let yourself become a ghost under the knife.

"Bang!"

Listening to the soldier's report, Long Qingyang's heart was shocked, and the table under his hand shattered. The man stood up even more violently.

"What do you say? How is this possible! Yesterday, this king also corresponded with General Kuang, and everything was fine as he said in the book. ”

Regarding what the soldiers said, Long Qingyang couldn't accept it at all. An army of 100,000, that's a whole 100,000. Even if it's a cat or a dog, you have to kill it for a while. How could it be that it was only one night, and it was all gone!

"Return, back to the words of the prince. Yan Liang, the king of Pingnan, led an army of 300,000 troops. They marched in a hurry, and when they arrived outside the city of Huai'an, they did not rest, but directly launched an attack.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, General Kuang was not ready for the battle, resulting in the loss of the opportunity. So, so ......"

The soldier who knelt on the ground did not continue. But the meaning of the words is very clear.

Long Qingyang sat on the chair in a distraction, everything was too fast, so that he didn't have time to react. Bitter silk for many years, just a few days......

Suddenly he remembered what the Lord had said to him the other day, and what he had given him after the words.

"You have the talent and the strategy, but it's a pity that you don't have the abundant resources behind that person. If you are both on the same level, how can he fight you?

It's just that in this world, there are no ifs! If you really want to win, it's hard! ”

Oh, yes! He didn't have the strength of his soldiers, he didn't have his abundant resources. It is all my own accumulation over the years. But how can these be the enemy of the entire empire!

But if he doesn't give it a try, how can he be willing! Thinking of this, Long Qingyang's eyes were cold. Secretly, since you forced it, don't blame me for being unkind.

"Let's go down!"

Long Qingyang waved his hand and signaled that the person could go down.

The soldiers below were relieved to hear this. He hurriedly bowed and retreated.

But after taking two steps, he didn't move. It's not that I don't want to go, but I can't.

I saw a sharp arrow on his chest. It was a sleeve arrow, straight out from behind. The arrows are jet black, and the cold light is bursting. At a glance, you can see that it is poisoned.

The soldier turned around and wanted to say something, but his open mouth did not utter a word except for the blood gushing out.

"Since the faith has been preached, there should be such an awareness."

Long Qingyang muttered to himself in a low voice, his eyes full of ruthlessness. This news must not be revealed. Otherwise, there will be no way to go back.

Except for the dead soldiers, there was no one else in the house. Long Qingyang touched it in his arms and took out something like a jade plate. It is said to be like because it is not as warm as jade, with a fluttering black mist on it. It feels very ominous.

As soon as the thing was taken out, he used his spiritual power to shatter it. When the jade shattered, the black mist attached to it dissipated instantly at a speed that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. But Long Qingyang knew that the thing had not disappeared, but had gone to another place.

The war has been tilting in the direction of Xia Hourui's favor. Long Qingyang was defeated by his tiger and wolf army, and he retreated one after another, until he retreated to Luo Tian, and only then did he slow down slightly.

Luo Tiancheng's terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The reason why it was taken by Long Qingyang's army so quickly was at the beginning. It's just that there are many people, and the inside and outside are unexpected.

Otherwise, even if there were only more than 10,000 people guarding it, his army of 200,000 would not want to step into it in a short time.

Once here, the war began to stalemate. The steep and narrow natural barrier has become an assistant to the enemy army and an obstacle to one's own side.

"What about the general? It's so hard to attack! If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will take time. As...... Let's get stronger! ”

Looking at the danger ahead, Tan Shuang frowned. But what he said was a bit out of the way.

"I don't want to use my brain, so I just stay. It's not that you don't know that this Luo Tiancheng is the second barrier of the Dragon Teng Empire. It's just in case of emergency. Its importance is no less than that of the Northern Frontier Defense Line.

Therefore, it is impossible to use the same set of attacking foreign enemies on it. This is our own thing, and after dealing with these rebellions, we will still use it.

Where to go cool, don't let me look at it. ”

After Xia Hourui finished speaking, he glared coldly at Tan Shuang, the deputy general.

"Ahem, I don't just say that, I still know the severity."

Tan Shuang touched his nose a little stupidly. The general's eyes just now were too intimidating. It scared his little heart and plopped.

"Hmph, talk in a tone in the future, and walk your brain. Otherwise, sooner or later, one day, it will get into trouble. ”

Knowing that this person is always so unreliable in speaking, Xia Hourui just talks about people, and he doesn't take it to heart.

"But General, we have to think of a way. You can't just spend it with this Long Qingyang. After all, there is still a lot of work at home.

It's okay for a short time, but if it's a long time, it may not be stable. You must know that the one who stayed on the edge was a wolf. If he catches the opportunity, he will definitely tear off a piece of meat, and at that time, it will really outweigh the loss. ”

Speaking of business, Tan Shuang's expression immediately turned positive.

"I don't know what you're supposed to do? But the holy decree above has been issued, is it possible to resist the decree and disrespect! ”

Speaking of this question, Xia Hourui became a little irritable. The cold expression added to the worry. You can see how upset he is about this.

"Of course it won't work to resist the decree, that's a head-off. If you don't get it right, it will affect a lot of people. Of course, the most important thing is that you haven't lived enough. So General, we have to think of a way!

I don't know what this emperor thinks. He said that he wanted to put down the rebellion and send troops. Okay, but it's pretty much the same! Just a few heads of garlic, actually sent 300,000 troops from our border over, and ordered the general to lead it himself, isn't this pure fuss?

More than that, we're just a strand. King Pingnan also transferred 300,000 elite soldiers over. And it was also led by him personally. 600,000 Iron Riders! Come and encircle and suppress such 400,000 people, when we have nothing to do!

The most important thing is that if this boundary is really at this time, something will happen. No, even if it is a little bit of a fork, there is the old emperor crying. ”

This is not all Tan Shuang's complaint, but under this order, which is indeed a bit ridiculous. You must know that the transfer of troops at the border is not a trivial matter. However, there is a danger of being attacked by enemy forces at any time.

For the sake of an anti-thief prince who can't afford to make big waves, he makes such a big fight and makes such a big risk. He really can't figure out what this so-called superior thinks in his head.

"Tan Shuang, you are becoming more and more presumptuous. The Son of Heaven above is also something you can speculate and question! You will execute the order as it is given. Where did so much nonsense come from. If you dare to say half a word, believe it or not, I will remove you from your position as a general and throw you into the battalion. ”

Xia Hourui's face was gloomy, and there were hidden signs of anger. For this person who doesn't speak at the edge, he has a headache. In the past, when it was at the border, it was even that. Even if the words don't go through the brain, the content is just something outside.

Look at what I said twice. This bold man is really full of it. If this is heard by a suspicious person, then it will be preached. At that time, even if he grows ten or eight more heads, it will not be enough to pull it out and cut it.

"Hehe, it's not just the general here now! I feel uncomfortable in my heart, and I spit on you. Don't worry, as soon as you get out of this door, I promise to change this mistake of speaking without thinking.

Looking at the other party's gloomy face, Tan Shuang said with a smirk.

"Take care of your mouth. You are not a child anymore, don't use me to teach you the truth that comes out of your mouth. ”

He, the deputy general, knows everything, so that he can't control his mouth, which makes him really worried.

"Yes, yes, they all listen to the general, and they must be changed."

I know, I'm afraid this has already reached the bottom line of the general. So Tan Shuang happily made a guarantee.

Look, how accurately this grasps people's minds. If you dare to say that he has no brains, then he is definitely the one who has no brains.
