Chapter 290: Mighty as the sea spurting blood!
Inside the Great Flame Palace!
The king was as cold as ice in his hand, but it was like a volcano about to burst.
His eyes, which hadn't blinked for a full minute, were staring at the words on the secret letter.
"Whew......"
Suddenly his life exploded, and the secret letter in his hand disappeared in an instant.
The eunuch kneeling in front of him was so frightened that he almost urinated out, and desperately knelt on the ground, holding the silver basin higher with both hands, and there were dozens of black crow secret letters in it, almost all of which were the same content.
Li Ruhai opened one secret letter after another.
It's all the same: Li Wanwan was defeated, with countless casualties!
Li Ruhai's heart is roaring!
How could it be a big defeat?
The entire army of 100,000 is three times that of Du Chang.
Although 40,000 of them were cannon fodder who surrendered, after being fed the medicine, they were as fierce as beasts.
Not to mention that Li Wanwan's more than 20,000 Holy Fire Sect troops are completely the most elite army in the world.
How could it be possible to lose?
No, no!
When pigs fly!
And lose the war in one day?
How is that possible? It's ridiculous!
This is definitely a conspiracy of the enemy!
"This is a conspiracy, a conspiracy ......" Li Ruhai flicked his sleeves and said: "Get out, the widow doesn't look at these." ”
With a flick of his sleeve, it seemed as if a hurricane was blowing in the hall.
These little eunuchs flew straight out, blood spurted wildly, and they died completely.
"Come on, go and kill all the animal trainers in charge of the letter crows!" Li Ruhai ordered: "All the letter crows they kept in captivity have been controlled. ”
"Yes!" Suddenly, a group of samurai went out fiercely.
The eunuch in charge of the crow in the Great Yan Dynasty was unlucky and would be killed.
"Send a cavalry, constantly change horses, and go to the battlefield of Baise, and the widow will know what is happening on the battlefield. ”
In short, Li Ruhai absolutely believed that his army of 100,000 would be defeated within a day of the start of the battle. 、
Then, he sat on the throne and waited for the arrival of real intelligence on the battlefield.
......
"I'll your mother, Li Wanwan!"
After a burst of blackness in front of him, Yuan Tianzhao finally couldn't help but scold.
We handed over Du Bian to you to destroy the Li clan, but in exchange for this result?
100,000 troops, 100,000 troops!
I actually lost!
Even if you fucking want to lose, don't lose so fast!
You hold out for at least two or three days, and when my army arrives, you and I will be caught between you and me, and Du Chang, this little gelding dog, will definitely die.
As a result, you didn't stick to it for even a day?
Of course, Li Wanwan did not make a particularly big mistake in this battle, and his defeat was full of inevitability and chance.
It must be because the combat effectiveness of Du Chang's army is too strong and too strong, and it is so strong that it is off the charts.
No one would have thought that the army that Du Bian found came from a special place, and every samurai was an absolute professional samurai, who had served for more than 20 years, and was still in the prime of life.
Although Li Wanwan has an army of 100,000, 40,000 are cannon fodder who surrendered. Although he was not afraid of death after being fed the medicine, he frantically charged and fought to the end.
If it was an ordinary army, it would really be crushed by the 50,000 cannon fodder army, because this is a completely beast-like army, not afraid of death or pain.
But they were met with elite samurai armed to the teeth, and madness had no effect in front of them, just objects to be slaughtered.
Accidentally, of course, it was because of Du Chang's immortal miracle that caused the morale of the Holy Fire Cult to be low.
And even so, the battle situation was almost overturned by Li Wanwan. So there is nothing to blame for this battle, on the contrary, she performed very amazingly at the critical moment, and almost turned the tide.
Of course, Yuan Tianzhao didn't know this, and only felt that Li Wanwan was a straw bag.
Next, he was faced with a difficult choice.
Is it time to retreat, or is it time to move on?
If you advance, Li Wanwan's army has been completely defeated, and he Yuan Tianzhao has no reinforcements, and he is going to attack Baise City alone.
The key is that in the secret letter he received, he only knew that Li Wanwan was defeated, but he didn't know how many casualties Du Yan had and how many people were left.
Words of retreat?
Unwilling, really unwilling.
Du changed more than 30,000 troops, and fought against Li Wanwan's 100,000 army, even if he won, he should be greatly injured, so now should be the most vulnerable moment in Baise City.
With a long exhale, Yuan Tianzhao looked up at the sky!
Almost in a moment, he had a decision!
"The traitor Du mutiny, murdered the royal family, and conspired against him, we were ordered to crusade against it, and the army continued to advance!"
With Yuan Tianzhao's order, the 35,000-strong army continued to march westward towards Baise City.
......
Du Bian led 4,000 cavalry into Baise City!
"Long live the big city lord, long live, long live!"
"Long live the adults, long live, long live!"
In the sky above the entire Baise City, all the oppressive atmosphere was completely dissipated, replaced by a burst of glory.
Because of their reserve and pride, they did not become a sea of joy, and the samurai of the peerless dungeon celebrated this glorious and great victory in their own way.
"Bang ......"
Column after column of troops, began to beat their armor with their swords.
Then, in the square, a small military parade was held.
This is a peerless dungeon tradition, their physical strength and energy are very strong, and although the intensity of today's battle is high, this does not prevent them from celebrating.
Du Chang rode on his war horse and watched the celebration ceremony of the warriors of the peerless dungeon, solemn and warm.
It's like a military parade, more like a war dance.
Li Wenyu and the county lord of Yuzhen were both watching with great interest, Fu Hongbing led the army to continue to defend the city wall, the scouts had already been sent out, and Sikong Ye's eagle falcon was also sent out, focusing on Yuan Tianzhao's army in the eastern direction.
Du Bian said: "Brother Yi, you don't have many troops guarding Tianbao County, and there aren't many peerless dungeon warriors, why did you suddenly have four thousand more warriors?"
Li Ling smiled: "Look at it, who is missing around us?"
Du took a closer look and found that the young city lord of Ji Shi was not there.
Li Ling said: "The wife of the young city lord of Ji Shi is also a powerful warrior, but after marrying him, he began to have children and quit the army to become a good wife and mother. The two childhood sweethearts have never been apart for that long. This time, the peerless dungeon delivered food and grass, and she returned to the army. These 4,000 samurai were the army that escorted the grain and grass, just in time for this great battle. ”
I see!
However, the 4,000 warriors of Brother Li Lingyi still arrived in a very timely manner, which accelerated the victory of the battle and greatly reduced the casualties of Du Chang's army.
......
In the evening, in Du Bian's Viscount's Mansion, Li Wenyu handed over the casualty table.
His 32,000 army, plus the 4,000 army that Li Ling came to support later, made a total of 36,000 troops.
In this great battle, there were nine thousand three casualties!
Seeing this number, Du Chang's eyes couldn't help but shrink suddenly.
This casualty figure is much higher than expected.
Looking at it carefully, Fu Hongbing's army, which fought against Sha Longshuo's 50,000-strong army, suffered very low casualties, less than 1,000.
Against Li Wenyu's troops, who were as strong as dragons, the casualties were not large, only more than 2,500 casualties, but they wiped out Li Rulong's 13,000 troops.
Du Bian plus Li Lingbu, a total of 14,000 troops, the casualties reached 6,000, nearly half!
This number made Du Chang's scalp tingle for a while, and his heart almost ached.
These casualties were all caused by the Holy Fire Sect and the Holy Flame Guards.
Before retreating, the Li Wanwan Holy Fire Sect Army and the Holy Fire Guards, the casualties were about 9,000.
In other words, the casualty ratio of the two sides is 3:2, and Du Chang is the defender of the city.
This Holy Fire Cult Army is really terrifying, fortunately, there are not many of them, only more than 20,000, and they were severely demoralized by Du Chang's immortal miracle, resulting in a huge setback, otherwise Du Chang's more than 10,000 warriors may really not be able to stop the attack of these 20,000 Holy Fire Sect Army.
Li Wenyu said: "But there is also good news, because our warriors are extremely well equipped, almost armed to the teeth, although the casualties are nearly 10,000, but the real casualties are only about 2,000." The remaining seven thousand were only wounded and could return to the battlefield after treatment. Because the armor is very tightly protected, there are very few injuries with broken hands and feet. ”
Du Yan breathed a sigh of relief, this time the young city lord of Ji Shi took four thousand warriors to transport grain and grass, and also brought more than two hundred healers, which could just treat seven thousand casualties.
Li Wenyu said: "Change, fortunately, the collapse of the Li Rulong Department dispersed the retreating array of the Holy Fire Sect Army, fortunately, Li Wanwan's fall at the critical moment caused the morale of the Holy Fire Sect Army to suffer a fatal blow, otherwise the complete retreat of more than 10,000 Holy Fire Sect troops back to Wenshan City will bring us huge trouble in the future." ”
Oh, yes!
In the end, Du Bian led four thousand cavalry to chase forty or fifty miles, and killed four or five thousand Holy Fire Sect troops, tens of thousands of routs as strong as dragons.
The victory was brilliant, but it was also thrilling!
The Flame Sect Army is too strong!
"Report!"
Suddenly, the voice of an old man sounded outside, he was the beast tamer of the peerless dungeon, in charge of the letter crow, and several falcons that were watching from the air.
"Enter. Du changed his way.
The beast tamer came in and said, "Great City Lord, the Eagle Falcon has found a large army fifty miles to the east, about 30,000 or more!"
Du Chang's eyes shrank!
There is no doubt that it is Yuan Tianzhao's army!
"Father-in-law, how is the elite army of the Fang Empire compared to the Li Clan?"
Li Wenyu said: "The ace army of the Fang Department of the Overseas Empire is equivalent to the Heavenly Demon Blood Army of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and it is even said to be an enhanced version of the Heavenly Demon Blood Army. ”
Du Yan understood this statement, and the Heavenly Demon Blood Army of Heavenly Demon Sect Leader Ji Yin Yin was just an experiment a few decades ago. At this time, the Heavenly Demon Blood Army of the Fang Overseas Empire was already a mature army.
Li Wenyu continued: "Therefore, the trump card of the Fang Overseas Empire will be even more powerful than Li Wanwan's Holy Fire Sect Army. However, the elite troops who landed in Liangguang this time did not have the secret ace samurai of the Fang line. Therefore, the combat effectiveness of Yuan Tianzhao's army should be slightly lower than that of the Holy Fire Sect Army, and higher than the elite of the Li Clan led by Li Rulong, with a number of about thirty-five thousand. ”
Du Chang frowned!
In this battle with Yuan Tianzhao, he really didn't want to fight at this time.
He will definitely kill Yuan Tianzhao and Du Jiang, but after destroying the Li clan.
Because of Du Chang's 36,000 army, today's battle suffered a quarter of the casualties, and only about 27,000 troops were able to fight at this time.
Moreover, the rolling wood has run out, the stones have run out, the fire oil has also been used up, and even the arrows have been used up eighty percent.
Once a war with Yuan Tianzhao's 35,000 army starts, and if it wins, it will also suffer heavy casualties, so how will it fight against Li Ruhai in the future? How can it destroy the Li clan?
But Du Chang knows that only with absolute will to fight can he have an advantage in the situation.
Suddenly, Du Yan ordered: "The whole army, rest, sleep, and prepare for tomorrow's battle!"
His orders spread quickly.
"Yuan Tianzhao, I don't want to fight, but if you want to fight, then fight!" Du Bian muttered to himself.
As soon as the order was given, the samurai who were celebrating their victory immediately stopped, began to assemble in formation, ate as fast as they could, and then returned to their beds and closed their eyes.
After only a quarter of an hour, they all fell asleep, making sure that tomorrow they were in the best shape for the possible battle!
It's really bullish.
......
The next morning, it was not dawn!
Twenty-seven thousand warriors, in high spirits, lined up on the city walls.
Everyone could not see the tiredness of yesterday's war at all, and was full of high fighting spirit and murderous spirit.
Not only that, but the armor on everyone's body is still spotless and shiny, because the first thing I do when I wake up every morning is to wipe the armor and sharpen my sword!
Everyone, still armed to the teeth.
Daggers, knives, broken swords, crossbows, bows, all equipment is readily available.
Not only that, but every samurai had a pot full of arrows behind their backs, and of course all the arrows were here, all on their backs.
The battlefield outside was even neatly tied.
Yesterday, there was an argument among the leaders of the Du Chang side.
The first point of view is to keep the battlefield as it is, so that Yuan Tianzhao can see the mountains of corpses clearly, so that he can rush to be afraid.
The second point of view is to cut off the heads of tens of thousands of soldiers who died in battle of the Li clan and pile them into a Jingguan, which gave Yuan Tianzhao's army a huge shock.
Both of these points of view are very reasonable, but Du Bian said a word.
Whether it was to keep the battlefield as it was, with corpses piling up, or cutting off the heads of tens of thousands of people who had died in the battle and piling them up into a Jingguan, it was all a kind of deterrent, and what was the purpose? It was to make Yuan Tianzhao's army afraid and not dare to attack, right?
Everyone nodded.
Du Bian said: "Didn't that just tell Yuan Tianzhao that we don't want to fight this battle, and we are afraid of fighting this battle with him?"
After Li Wenyu heard Du Bian's words, he was very relieved that my son had grown up.
Du said: "That's right, we don't want to fight this war, because we are almost running out of supplies, because our army will suffer huge casualties. But the more this happens, the more we have to show our fighting spirit to the sky!"
Then Du Bian ordered: "Go and clean up the battlefield immediately, gather all the corpses of the enemy, dig a few big pits, and bury them completely, so that there is not a single corpse on the battlefield, but you can see the blood stains all over the sky!"
So, last night several thousand people went out.
Hit all the corpses on the battlefield, burn them, and bury them completely!
Early this morning, there was not even a single corpse on the battlefield, only boundless bloodstains.
......
"Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"
It's noon!
Yuan Tianzhao's army of 35,000 finally appeared.
Although the number is not as good as the Li family's 100,000 army, it is extremely elite, and more than a dozen arrays are neat, although the movements are not as neat, but they are not far behind.
And on the march, this army did not make any sound.
Depressed, quiet, but full of powerful murderous aura.
The more elite the army, the more so!
This is the army of the Li Clan's overseas empire, and it is also a truly professional army.
The army is constantly marching, marching, marching.
At a distance of a thousand meters from the city wall of Baise, he stopped.
An army of 35,000 and a dozen phalanxes were neat and tidy, and there was no chaos at all.
Again, every soldier was armed to the teeth.
Because the Fang overseas empire has obtained an incomparably huge iron ore on a more distant land, and it is an open-pit iron mine.
If the steel there were used to make armor and weapons, it would not be used up for a thousand years.
Therefore, the equipment and armor of each of his soldiers are so extravagant that they make people want to cry compared to the Daning Empire.
Like Du Chang's peerless dungeon army, the whole body of every samurai is protected by armor.
Under the sun's rays, it shines brightly.
The army of the Fang Overseas Empire is far more elite than imagined.
In fact, what the Fang Overseas Empire discovered was not only iron ore, but also an incomparably huge gold mine.
Maritime trade, gold and silver seas, and the interests of the sky completely bought the civil and military groups of the Daning Empire.
If you don't have real benefits, why should others follow you and work against the emperor?
There are enough benefits, and there is no problem in helping you pull the emperor off the horse.
Of course, it is actually wrong to call the outsiders the Fang faction all the time, and the Fang faction is just the spokesperson for their interests.
......
Yuan Tianzhao, the governor of Guangxi, came out in line to watch the entire battlefield.
He was shocked to find that there was not even a single corpse left on the battlefield, only the blood in the sky could not be washed away.
What does this mean?
Yesterday's battle must have left countless corpses, if Du Bian didn't want to fight, he would definitely look down at the corpses' heads and pile them into a Jingguan, trying to deter and deter his Yuan Tianzhao's army.
However, Du Bian did not, but instead swept the battlefield cleanly, as if waiting for Yuan Tianzhao's army to attack.
Looking at the city wall again, Du Bian's 20,000 or 30,000 troops were neatly arranged, without deliberately shouting or deliberately showing murderous aura.
Yuan Tianzhao is too familiar with this kind of temperament, and the elite army of the Fang system is like this, proud, cold, contemptuous, and full of absolute self-confidence.
Du Chang's army is so elite?
The armor on their bodies is even more extravagant, more distinct, and more gorgeous than the army behind him.
The height of Du Chang's army is so tall?
Yuan Tianzhao's scalp tingled for a while, and his eyes stared coldly at Du Chang on the city wall.
This is the first time Du Bian has seen Yuan Tianzhao, and it is also the first time Yuan Tianzhao has seen Du Bian.
Yuan Tianzhao is the same as Du Chang imagined, cold and heroic, vicious, cold, and powerful.
Du Bian is the same as Yuan Tianzhao imagined, handsome, young, and calm.
The two men looked at each other from a distance.
Du Yan: I don't want to fight, because I want to destroy the Li clan. But if you Yuan Tianzhao wants to fight, I can only fight with you to the death with huge casualties.
Yuan Tianzhao: I want to completely wipe out your Du Bian, but that can only be cheap.
He had calculated that even if his 35,000-strong army could capture Baise City, that army would be almost exhausted.
This army is the lifeblood of his Yuan Tianzhao.
After staring at Du Chang coldly for a few minutes, Yuan Tianzhao said: "The front army has changed to the rear army, and the whole army has retreated!"
That's it!
Before the first battle, Yuan Tianzhao's army retreated cleanly.
And it was a complete retreat, directly retreating to Tianbao County, which was hundreds of miles away.
The might of the Du Bian army completely shocked Yuan Tianzhao!
......
Inside the royal palace of the Great Yan Kingdom.
Li Ruhai waited on the throne all night, did not go to sleep, did not close his eyes.
He was going to wait for a reply from the messenger sent out, he wanted to know what was really happening on the battlefield.
This night, no words can describe the anxiety in his heart, and even his dantian and tendons are a little uncalm, and the Xuan Qi that has been swallowed up has begun to surge.
However, he no longer had to wait for a reply from the messenger he had sent.
Not long after dawn, one of Li Wanwan's henchmen rushed back as fast as he could.
She almost rushed into the palace on her horse, and then rolled off her horse.
rushed into the main hall, knelt directly and knelt down to kowtow: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we are defeated, defeated!"
Li Ruhai's body trembled suddenly, and his eyes widened instantly.
Then, for a long time, he didn't react.
Because, he still thinks it's very ridiculous.
The Holy Fire Sect priest said, "Your Majesty, our 100,000-strong army was almost wiped out, and less than 20,000 escaped. ”
Nearly wiped out?
An army of 100,000, less than 20,000 escaped?
The king was still silent, his body was as stiff as iron, and he stood up directly and walked towards the palace behind.
With a jerk of his hand, he indicated that no one was allowed to approach.
Arrived at the back of the palace, where no one was.
Li Ruhai could no longer control the tumbling Xuan Qi of the internal organs.
"Puff puff ......"
Mouthfuls of bloody arrows spurted out violently.
......
Meanwhile!
One cavalry after another galloped wildly, galloping in the direction of the capital.
Roar while galloping!
"Eight hundred miles expedited!"
"Eight hundred miles expedited!"
"Urgent military situation, Viscount Du Chang won a complete victory in the Battle of Baise, and the 100,000 army of the Li clan was wiped out. ”
"In the case of an emergency military situation, Viscount Du Bian won a complete victory, and the 100,000-strong army of the Li clan was wiped out. ”
Suddenly, the world was shocked!
......
Note: The second more nearly 6,000 words are sent, and today's two more are 10,000, please support, please ask for a monthly pass!
