Chapter 229: Helpless

Chapter 229 is helpless

Li Tianci didn't make them very happy, and there was no soldier under them, and if the other side came over again, they would definitely not be spared. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

"We must conscript, or we will be completely defeated here. ā€

It was urgent, and the others didn't say anything, and they went out immediately. The place of recruitment will certainly not be too close to the front line, otherwise it will not be effective. After walking for a day, they finally found a densely populated place, put up a sign and began to shout.

However, this did not work well, and many of the people walking on the street were women, otherwise they would not be in the prime of life. A lot of people just take a closer look and then leave, and at the end of the day there are not many people.

Li Tianci knew that this was expected, but he was inevitably a little disappointed, and the few people he recruited didn't make any sense. He decided to give up, let the people who came over, and find the next city.

Li Tianci naturally couldn't go too far, there was no one city in this one, and he didn't have much hope, he decided that if there weren't many people in the next city, then he would give up conscription and think of other ways.

The results are always disappointing, and they recruit very few people in the next city. The two cities add up to only a few dozen people, and now Li Tianci is completely disappointed, he doesn't want to go back, and he doesn't want to give up just like that.

"You guys go back first, Yuan and I will go to the emperor to see if we can give me some soldiers. ā€

Li Tianci was very helpless when he said this, and Xiaoran and they went back obediently.

"Take out the flying machine, we must come to the emperor as fast as possible, otherwise the opposite side will come in. ā€

Yuan Dubu naturally understood that he didn't know how much faster he was flying with the flying machine than they were simply flying. Yuan Dubu didn't know where the palace was, and Li Tianci led the way.

Within a few days, they arrived in the capital and found the palace. When they arrived at the palace, they took the aircraft back and searched for it on foot. Li Tianci had never seen the emperor either, so he could only ask little by little.

The guards at the door will definitely check it, and the cultivation of the guards at the gate is not low, there are already six orders.

"I am Li Tianci, an officer on the front line, we have urgent matters to report to the emperor, can you take us to meet the saint. ā€

The guards searched carefully, eager to strip Li Tianci and Yuan Dubu to see. Li Tianci was very anxious, but he couldn't have a seizure. The search went on for a long time, and the guards observed their cultivation again, feeling unfathomable and very uneasy, but they still took them in, but only took them outside the gate of the emperor's palace.

The guard shouted, and waited a while before the emperor let them in. After coming in, Li Tianci found that there were two guards around the emperor, one on the left and one on the right, which was very majestic.

"Your Majesty, we are here to ask for support. We are in a hurry at the front here, and now there is not a single soldier left. ā€

"And how did you get here?"

"We fought to the last man, and although they won, they only had two hundred men left, which was not enough to defend a city, so they also retreated. Now they may come at any time, and I tell you the news as fast as I can, because I am afraid that if they come, the defense line will collapse. ā€

The emperor fell silent, it was impossible for him not to know who Li Tianci was, this was Li Cunqing's son, he was a famous family, and he was also a handsome man, although they hadn't met, but he knew that if it wasn't for the emergency, he wouldn't have come.

Li Tianci saw that the emperor fell silent, and his heart became even more anxious.

"Your Majesty can't be any more, my father and I have persevered for a few years, not giving up an inch of land, although it is not the best, but it is more than the bottom, now we are in trouble, is it not your Majesty to see death and not save it? Our life is your life, do you have to watch your subordinates die helplessly?"

These words are already a threat, and Li Tianci's heart is really anxious. But the emperor was not angry, he hesitated because of his bitterness, and now every line of defense is also struggling to support, how can it be possible for each army to take out a part and form an army?

"Your Majesty, we will surely win in the end. They even went up to the women, and although they had no complaints, they must have been empty inside. The current Northwest Country is an empty shell, and what we are doing now is to survive this time and exhaust their resources. It is impossible for the southeastern country to send its own population over, and their combat effectiveness cannot be improved in a day or two. We're just sending out in the prime of life now, and the resources are unusually abundant, and we're definitely going to consume them. Now all we have to do is to fight hard, as long as we fight through, we have nothing to fear. ā€

The emperor's eyes lit up after hearing this, he didn't know the news. After listening to General Li Tianci's words, he didn't think about anything, just gritted his teeth and said a word.

"Since you've said so, well, I'll give you a thousand of my soldiers. But well, if you were to ignore me, I wouldn't have any. I know you must have a hard time, or you wouldn't have come to me personally to ask me. You will make it very clear what is at stake, so what can I not do? ā€

Then the emperor ordered all his soldiers to be assembled. The royal army was more strictly managed, and soon three thousand soldiers were lined up. The emperor drew a thousand people from it and gave it to Li Tianci, who was grateful and kowtowed nine times before leaving.

These 1,000 soldiers are far from enough, but Li Tianci can't ask for more. It is impossible for the emperor to give all his subordinates to Li Tianci, which is already very generous. When he went out, Li Tianci burst into tears, which was even more exciting than saving his life. What makes people grateful is often not the icing on the cake, but the charcoal in the snow.

Most of these 1,000 soldiers are also ordinary people, but Li Tianci has a lot of peace of mind, compared with the soldiers who are currently recruited, they don't need to train at least, they just need to tell them their combat routines.

Now Li Tianci is not very sure to block the opposite side, but this is already the maximum that Li Tianci can do. Now Li Tianci feels a kind of helplessness, he has never felt this way, this feeling is like no matter how hard he tries, the result is the same, it is easy to be discouraged, if it is not for Yuan Dubu to encourage him, Li Tianci is really easy to be depressed.

The process of going back is much slower, which is why Li Tianci wants to use a flying machine to get there. When I went back, I couldn't use Yuan Li, so I could only walk on foot, the carriage was too expensive, and Li Tianci didn't want to hire it at first.

But he didn't go far for a few days, and Li Tianci really couldn't bear it. In one go, he hired more than a hundred carriages, loaded all these soldiers on the carriages, and ran with his own yuanli.

This speed is indeed much faster, it took more than a month, and they finally came to Tianci City, but Li Tianci's waist was deflated in an instant, and he couldn't even afford a little medicinal herbs, and this was still the case that Yuan Dubu also poured his money.

Xiao Ya and they had been waiting for a long time in Tianci City, and when they saw Li Tianci and Yuan Dubu returning, they immediately opened the door to greet them, because the situation here has also become urgent.

"No one has been here for more than a month, but I see that the lights in the distance are getting brighter and brighter, and it seems that they have gathered more and more troops, if you are a month late, I guess they will call. ā€

"It's impossible for them to find anyone anymore, they must have been transferred from somewhere else, which is good news for us, and even if we fail again, we are not afraid. ā€

"How many people did you ask the emperor for, is it a thousand?"

"Yes, a thousand, but I don't think that's going to be enough for the situation. We can't do anything about it, I think we're going to be wiped out again, and we'll have to prepare for the worst. ā€

"We were prepared for the worst. In fact, we all know in our hearts that this war is a tragedy, no matter which country wins, we are all losers, but we can't stop it. ā€

Li Tianci didn't speak again, it was important to manage these emperor's soldiers first, although they were well-trained, they were still the same as the Huang family, and Li Tianci had to correct them now.

This original training method has been ingrained in their hearts, and it is not easy to correct it. And now the time is very urgent, one day said, in another month, the opposite army will come, at that time there must be more than a thousand, three or five thousand are possible, he must be prepared for this vicious battle.

At the same time, Yuan Dubu and they are also actively cultivating, although they can't improve their cultivation much during this time, but it is not harmful for them to be able to strengthen a little.

Time passed little by little, and in addition to training his army, Li Tianci also had to observe the situation on the other side. The more smoke on the other side means that there are more people and need more pots to cook, and it is only natural that their lights are getting brighter at night. At the same time, he also noticed that the territory on the opposite side was starting to get bigger and bigger, which was not a good sign, indicating that the original place was no longer enough.

But Li Tianci was happy about this, because this would mean that there would be fewer troops in other places, and the pressure on his own country would be much less. The current situation is equivalent to a cannon fodder, attracting all the energy of the other side, if this is the case, Li Tianci is also happy.

He didn't ask Li Cunqing for someone anymore, he no longer had the face to ask him for someone again, even if he pulled down his face, Li Cunqing wouldn't give it to him. Li Tianci sighed as soon as he thought of this, he couldn't imagine that he didn't die in the hands of the demons, but in the hands of humans.

Yi Tian's estimated time did not deviate much, and after more than a month, the opposite side came over again, this time with great momentum and extreme arrogance.
