Chapter 82: Encircling and Attacking Thousand Caves (7)

Gong Luoluo rarely saw Long Yuandong's sad appearance, and couldn't help but joke: "Long Shovel, I haven't seen you for a few months, and you are getting less and less grown!

This is a joke for Gong Luoluo, but for Long Yuandong, it is tantamount to sprinkling salt on the wound and slapping him in the face.

When the soldiers of the Long He Army heard this, their color changed and they all looked at Long Yuandong.

For a soldier, the humiliation of the general is often more uncomfortable than the humiliation of himself.

But Gong Luoluo had just saved the life of Long Hejun, and he was fully qualified to question him directly.

Long Yuandong has never been a person who is easy to admit defeat, so how can he accept others to use words to run?

But after he experienced this war, his mentality changed dramatically, and he only smiled faintly and said: "The general will inevitably die on the battlefield, and there is no temple in the world that is perfect." The reason why the ancient famous generals are famous generals is not because they have never been defeated, but because they can always stand up in failure!

I have only fallen for a trick of the enemy, and I have encountered a small setback, which has not damaged my faith, nor the prestige of the Longhe Army. It's a big deal to learn a lesson, just start from the beginning! Again, in the Longhe Army, there are no defeated battles, only battles that have not yet been won!"

After listening to him, Gong Luoluo praised: "Not bad! Defeated but not discouraged, it's a bit of a look!"

The soldiers of the Longhe Army raised their heads and chests, and they were overjoyed, as if they had just won a big battle in person. At the same time, I deeply feel from the bottom of my heart how lucky I am to have such a well-informed and rational general who is not arrogant or rash.

Long Yuandong was silent, and generously thanked: "This time, the Long He Army was able to escape from death, thanks to the timely arrival of the Tianjia Army. Of course, the credit of your little witch is indispensable, and I know it in my heart. If there is any crisis in the future, I will do my best to help without saying a word. ”

Gong Luoluo grinned and said unashamedly: "My credit, of course, there are some. However, just for a few years of classmates, this little thing is not worth mentioning. But have you ever wondered why the county lord He Xiaoduo is so close to you, and the Tianjia Army is so far away from you, but the Tianjia Army rushed to support first?"

Long Yuandong had never thought about this question, and said in a daze: "Is it that the county lord has no other soldiers available?" Hmph, some people are lonely and self-admiring, and if they don't listen to the dispatch, they will regret it sooner or later." ”

"Makes sense, but it's not entirely true. Think about it again. ”

Long Yuandong muttered: "The Tianjia Army is stationed in Hanyuan County, more than 1,300 kilometers away from here, even if it is a rapid march day and night, it will take at least seven or eight days to arrive. And it has only been eight or nine days since I was actually under siege. In other words, the Celestial Armor Army started its rescue journey almost at the same time that I had just fallen into the siege. If you add the time for the preparation of the Tianjia Army and the time for the delay of the letter on the road, then the county lord needs to issue a rescue order at least four days in advance. And at that time, I hadn't even taken down Kim Bongseong. It's certainly impossible. Therefore, this can only be explained by the fact that the Tianjia Army did not receive an order, and ran to save us. ”

Gong Luoluo clapped his hands and praised: "Well said! You finally guessed the truth of the matter." The so-called heavenly profit and loss has its own fixed number. The catastrophe of the Long He Army, in fact, I have already arrived. Isn't my shrine maiden's name called for nothing?"

Long Yuandong glanced at Yun Tianjia and said in disbelief: "Really?"

Yun Tianjia naturally wouldn't go to expose Gong Luoluo's lies on the spot, and smiled silently.

Long Yuandong understands Gong Luoluo's temper, and likes to trick others the most when he is idle, and he can't ask her why, he will only go further and further away. If you want to know the truth, you can only focus on Xiong Zhuangzhuang and Zhong Dinghe, and I won't say more at the moment.

Yun Tianjia saw that Long Yuandong's face was very bad, and said with concern: "Although we have a chance to breathe now, the enemy army doesn't know when it will catch up. Moreover, through Matai County to Nanjin Pass, all the way is a fallen area, which can be regarded as the territory of the Five Elements Sect, and there will inevitably be a few fierce battles in the middle. You are also suffering from internal injuries, so it is better to rest as soon as possible and recover your soul power. ”

Long Yuandong shook his head and said, "I'm just a little out of strength, it's no big deal." It's fine after a day and a half. ”

Xiong Zhuangzhuang, Zhong Dinghe, and as Long Yuandong and He Dali's old buddies, naturally have some narratives, so there is no need to mention them.

At noon, it was still overcast.

Yun Tianjia felt that everyone was almost rested, even if they were wounded, they had recovered a little bit of energy, so he called Long Yuandong, He Dali, Dugu Wenjiao, Gong Luoluo and other generals to discuss the issue of departure.

"When you enter Matai County, there is only one ready-made road to take, and the rest of the place is full of deep valleys and streams, miasma and poisonous fog, which is difficult to pass. I judged that if the Five Elements Sect had not given up on it, it would definitely set up an ambush and encirclement on this necessary road. If our army wants to avoid the ambush, it can only flee to the inaccessible mountains.

But in this way, we will inevitably not be able to march fast, and we will easily be surrounded by the enemy. At the same time, putting aside the pursuit of the enemy, just staying in the valley and facing all kinds of insects, ants, and soul beasts, the danger factor is not small. ”

Yun Tianjia looked at the map and gave a brief analysis of the current situation to everyone.

The generals weighed again and again, relying on the two armies with a total of more than 800 people, and unanimously decided to break through the frontal encirclement and forcibly open the gap.

This is a seemingly risky but safe strategy.

Because, once the troops entered Matai County, they were only about 100 kilometers away from Nanjin Pass, and they would arrive in half a day if they sprinted. In terms of topography, the terrain of Matai County is flat, and it is too likely that there will be an ambush similar to that of Sleepy Dragon Bay.

Xiong Zhuangzhuang tightened his belt and said, "To be honest, I haven't killed last night. If the Five Elements Sect doesn't know each other and has to set up another ambush on the road, I just rush up and cut it to avenge my dead brother!"

Yesterday at noon, I jumped off the waterfall, and before I could stand firmly, I was covered by a fishing net, and I pulled out the river for a long time without a head, which made me lose my strength, and before I could make a move, I was pressed to the ground and beaten by the Five Elements Sect. Today, Lao Tzu has to break through the level, and he must beat the Five Elements Sect! Let them know that I don't really have great strength!"

When everyone heard this, they all felt that the time for revenge and reversal was about to come, and they were high-spirited, buried the pot and lit a fire, and let go of their stomachs and ate a full meal. Then, for fear that the enemy would not know, he waved his flag and marched towards Matai County.

Yun Tianjia was not afraid that the Five Elements Sect would intercept them on the road, but he had been faintly worried that the enemies of Nanjin Pass would not accept them smoothly. To the east of Nanjin Pass, there are insignificant reeds and lakes thousands of miles wide, if the Five Elements Sect surrounds it again at this time, it will really be no ladder in the sky, no door to enter the ground, and there is only one way to dive.

Diving, Long He Army, like the Tianjia Army, most of them don't know water, how should it end up then?
